The reason why the messages are shown is to release a resource
structure, allocated by bootmem, by kfree(). So when we release a
resource structure, we should check whether it is allocated by bootmem
or not.
But even if we know a resource structure is allocated by bootmem, we
cannot release it since SLxB cannot treat it. So for reusing a resource
structure, this patch remembers it by using bootmem_resource as follows:
When releasing a resource structure by free_resource(), free_resource()
checks whether the resource structure is allocated by bootmem or not.
If it is allocated by bootmem, free_resource() adds it to
bootmem_resource. If it is not allocated by bootmem, free_resource()
release it by kfree().
And when getting a new resource structure by get_resource(),
get_resource() checks whether bootmem_resource has released resource
structures or not. If there is a released resource structure,
get_resource() returns it. If there is not a releaed resource
structure, get_resource() returns new resource structure allocated by
kzalloc().

Add release_mem_region_adjustable(), which releases a requested region
from a currently busy memory resource. This interface adjusts the
matched memory resource accordingly even if the requested region does
not match exactly but still fits into.
This new interface is intended for memory hot-delete. During bootup,
memory resources are inserted from the boot descriptor table, such as
EFI Memory Table and e820. Each memory resource entry usually covers
the whole contigous memory range. Memory hot-delete request, on the
other hand, may target to a particular range of memory resource, and its
size can be much smaller than the whole contiguous memory. Since the
existing release interfaces like __release_region() require a requested
region to be exactly matched to a resource entry, they do not allow a
partial resource to be released.
This new interface is restrictive (i.e. release under certain
conditions), which is consistent with other release interfaces,
__release_region() and __release_resource(). Additional release
conditions, such as an overlapping region to a resource entry, can be
supported after they are confirmed as valid cases.
There is no change to the existing interfaces since their restriction is
valid for I/O resources.

Add an admin_reserve_kbytes knob to allow admins to change the hardcoded
memory reserve to something other than 3%, which may be multiple
gigabytes on large memory systems. Only about 8MB is necessary to
enable recovery in the default mode, and only a few hundred MB are
required even when overcommit is disabled.
This affects OVERCOMMIT_GUESS and OVERCOMMIT_NEVER.
admin_reserve_kbytes is initialized to min(3% free pages, 8MB)
I arrived at 8MB by summing the RSS of sshd or login, bash, and top.

Add user_reserve_kbytes knob.
Limit the growth of the memory reserved for other user processes to
min(3% current process size, user_reserve_pages). Only about 8MB is
necessary to enable recovery in the default mode, and only a few hundred
MB are required even when overcommit is disabled.
user_reserve_pages defaults to min(3% free pages, 128MB)
I arrived at 128MB by taking the max VSZ of sshd, login, bash, and top ...
then adding the RSS of each.
This only affects OVERCOMMIT_NEVER mode.
Background
1. user reserve
__vm_enough_memory reserves a hardcoded 3% of the current process size for
other applications when overcommit is disabled. This was done so that a
user could recover if they launched a memory hogging process. Without the
reserve, a user would easily run into a message such as:
bash: fork: Cannot allocate memory
2. admin reserve
Additionally, a hardcoded 3% of free memory is reserved for root in both
overcommit 'guess' and 'never' modes. This was intended to prevent a
scenario where root-cant-log-in and perform recovery operations.
Note that this reserve shrinks, and doesn't guarantee a useful reserve.
Motivation
The two hardcoded memory reserves should be updated to account for current
memory sizes.
Also, the admin reserve would be more useful if it didn't shrink too much.
When the current code was originally written, 1GB was considered
"enterprise". Now the 3% reserve can grow to multiple GB on large memory
systems, and it only needs to be a few hundred MB at most to enable a user
or admin to recover a system with an unwanted memory hogging process.
I've found that reducing these reserves is especially beneficial for a
specific type of application load:
* single application system
* one or few processes (e.g. one per core)
* allocating all available memory
* not initializing every page immediately
* long running
I've run scientific clusters with this sort of load. A long running job
sometimes failed many hours (weeks of CPU time) into a calculation. They
weren't initializing all of their memory immediately, and they weren't
using calloc, so I put systems into overcommit 'never' mode. These
clusters run diskless and have no swap.
However, with the current reserves, a user wishing to allocate as much
memory as possible to one process may be prevented from using, for
example, almost 2GB out of 32GB.
The effect is less, but still significant when a user starts a job with
one process per core. I have repeatedly seen a set of processes
requesting the same amount of memory fail because one of them could not
allocate the amount of memory a user would expect to be able to allocate.
For example, Message Passing Interfce (MPI) processes, one per core. And
it is similar for other parallel programming frameworks.
Changing this reserve code will make the overcommit never mode more useful
by allowing applications to allocate nearly all of the available memory.
Also, the new admin_reserve_kbytes will be safer than the current behavior
since the hardcoded 3% of available memory reserve can shrink to something
useless in the case where applications have grabbed all available memory.
Risks
* "bash: fork: Cannot allocate memory"
The downside of the first patch-- which creates a tunable user reserve
that is only used in overcommit 'never' mode--is that an admin can set
it so low that a user may not be able to kill their process, even if
they already have a shell prompt.
Of course, a user can get in the same predicament with the current 3%
reserve--they just have to launch processes until 3% becomes negligible.
* root-cant-log-in problem
The second patch, adding the tunable rootuser_reserve_pages, allows
the admin to shoot themselves in the foot by setting it too small. They
can easily get the system into a state where root-can't-log-in.
However, the new admin_reserve_kbytes will be safer than the current
behavior since the hardcoded 3% of available memory reserve can shrink
to something useless in the case where applications have grabbed all
available memory.
Alternatives
* Memory cgroups provide a more flexible way to limit application memory.
Not everyone wants to set up cgroups or deal with their overhead.
* We could create a fourth overcommit mode which provides smaller reserves.
The size of useful reserves may be drastically different depending
on the whether the system is embedded or enterprise.
* Force users to initialize all of their memory or use calloc.
Some users don't want/expect the system to overcommit when they malloc.
Overcommit 'never' mode is for this scenario, and it should work well.
The new user and admin reserve tunables are simple to use, with low
overhead compared to cgroups. The patches preserve current behavior where
3% of memory is less than 128MB, except that the admin reserve doesn't
shrink to an unusable size under pressure. The code allows admins to tune
for embedded and enterprise usage.
FAQ
* How is the root-cant-login problem addressed?
What happens if admin_reserve_pages is set to 0?
Root is free to shoot themselves in the foot by setting
admin_reserve_kbytes too low.
On x86_64, the minimum useful reserve is:
8MB for overcommit 'guess'
128MB for overcommit 'never'
admin_reserve_pages defaults to min(3% free memory, 8MB)
So, anyone switching to 'never' mode needs to adjust
admin_reserve_pages.
* How do you calculate a minimum useful reserve?
A user or the admin needs enough memory to login and perform
recovery operations, which includes, at a minimum:
sshd or login + bash (or some other shell) + top (or ps, kill, etc.)
For overcommit 'guess', we can sum resident set sizes (RSS)
because we only need enough memory to handle what the recovery
programs will typically use. On x86_64 this is about 8MB.
For overcommit 'never', we can take the max of their virtual sizes (VSZ)
and add the sum of their RSS. We use VSZ instead of RSS because mode
forces us to ensure we can fulfill all of the requested memory allocations--
even if the programs only use a fraction of what they ask for.
On x86_64 this is about 128MB.
When swap is enabled, reserves are useful even when they are as
small as 10MB, regardless of overcommit mode.
When both swap and overcommit are disabled, then the admin should
tune the reserves higher to be absolutley safe. Over 230MB each
was safest in my testing.
* What happens if user_reserve_pages is set to 0?
Note, this only affects overcomitt 'never' mode.
Then a user will be able to allocate all available memory minus
admin_reserve_kbytes.
However, they will easily see a message such as:
"bash: fork: Cannot allocate memory"
And they won't be able to recover/kill their application.
The admin should be able to recover the system if
admin_reserve_kbytes is set appropriately.
* What's the difference between overcommit 'guess' and 'never'?
"Guess" allows an allocation if there are enough free + reclaimable
pages. It has a hardcoded 3% of free pages reserved for root.
"Never" allows an allocation if there is enough swap + a configurable
percentage (default is 50) of physical RAM. It has a hardcoded 3% of
free pages reserved for root, like "Guess" mode. It also has a
hardcoded 3% of the current process size reserved for additional
applications.
* Why is overcommit 'guess' not suitable even when an app eventually
writes to every page? It takes free pages, file pages, available
swap pages, reclaimable slab pages into consideration. In other words,
these are all pages available, then why isn't overcommit suitable?
Because it only looks at the present state of the system. It
does not take into account the memory that other applications have
malloced, but haven't initialized yet. It overcommits the system.
Test Summary
There was little change in behavior in the default overcommit 'guess'
mode with swap enabled before and after the patch. This was expected.
Systems run most predictably (i.e. no oom kills) in overcommit 'never'
mode with swap enabled. This also allowed the most memory to be allocated
to a user application.
Overcommit 'guess' mode without swap is a bad idea. It is easy to
crash the system. None of the other tested combinations crashed.
This matches my experience on the Roadrunner supercomputer.
Without the tunable user reserve, a system in overcommit 'never' mode
and without swap does not allow the admin to recover, although the
admin can.
With the new tunable reserves, a system in overcommit 'never' mode
and without swap can be configured to:
1. maximize user-allocatable memory, running close to the edge of
recoverability
2. maximize recoverability, sacrificing allocatable memory to
ensure that a user cannot take down a system
Test Description
Fedora 18 VM - 4 x86_64 cores, 5725MB RAM, 4GB Swap
System is booted into multiuser console mode, with unnecessary services
turned off. Caches were dropped before each test.
Hogs are user memtester processes that attempt to allocate all free memory
as reported by /proc/meminfo
In overcommit 'never' mode, memory_ratio=100

Future Work
- Test larger memory systems.
- Test an embedded image.
- Test other architectures.
- Time malloc microbenchmarks.
- Would it be useful to be able to set overcommit policy for
each memory cgroup?
- Some lines are slightly above 80 chars.
Perhaps define a macro to convert between pages and kb?
Other places in the kernel do this.

task_get_live_kthread() looks confusing and unneeded. It does
get_task_struct() but only kthread_stop() needs this, it can be called
even if the calller doesn't have a reference when we know that this
kthread can't exit until we do kthread_stop().
kthread_park() and kthread_unpark() do not need get_task_struct(), the
callers already have the reference. And it can not help if we can race
with the exiting kthread anyway, kthread_park() can hang forever in this
case.
Change kthread_park() and kthread_unpark() to use to_live_kthread(),
change kthread_stop() to do get_task_struct() by hand and remove
task_get_live_kthread().

"k->vfork_done != NULL" with a barrier() after to_kthread(k) in
task_get_live_kthread(k) looks unclear, and sub-optimal because we load
->vfork_done twice.
All we need is to ensure that we do not return to_kthread(NULL). Add a

Along with the usual minor fixes and clean ups there are a few major
changes with this pull request.
1) Multiple buffers for the ftrace facility
This feature has been requested by many people over the last few years.
I even heard that Google was about to implement it themselves. I finally
had time and cleaned up the code such that you can now create multiple
instances of the ftrace buffer and have different events go to different
buffers. This way, a low frequency event will not be lost in the noise
of a high frequency event.
Note, currently only events can go to different buffers, the tracers
(ie. function, function_graph and the latency tracers) still can only
be written to the main buffer.
2) The function tracer triggers have now been extended.
The function tracer had two triggers. One to enable tracing when a
function is hit, and one to disable tracing. Now you can record a
stack trace on a single (or many) function(s), take a snapshot of the
buffer (copy it to the snapshot buffer), and you can enable or disable
an event to be traced when a function is hit.
3) A perf clock has been added.
A "perf" clock can be chosen to be used when tracing. This will cause
ftrace to use the same clock as perf uses, and hopefully this will make
it easier to interleave the perf and ftrace data for analysis.

Turn the full dynticks passive dependency on VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_GEN
to an active one.
The full dynticks Kconfig is currently hidden behind the full dynticks
cputime accounting, which is an awkward and counter-intuitive layout:
the user first has to select the dynticks cputime accounting in order
to make the full dynticks feature to be visible.
We definetly want it the other way around. The usual way to perform
this kind of active dependency is use "select" on the depended target.
Now we can't use the Kconfig "select" instruction when the target is
a "choice".
So this patch inspires on how the RCU subsystem Kconfig interact
with its dependencies on SMP and PREEMPT: we make sure that cputime
accounting can't propose another option than VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_GEN
when NO_HZ_FULL is selected by using the right "depends on" instruction
for each cputime accounting choices.
v2: Keep full dynticks cputime accounting available even without
full dynticks, as per Paul McKenney's suggestion.

On my SMP platform which is made of 5 cores in 2 clusters, I
have the nr_busy_cpu field of sched_group_power struct that is
not null when the platform is fully idle - which makes the
scheduler unhappy.
The root cause is:
During the boot sequence, some CPUs reach the idle loop and set
their NOHZ_IDLE flag while waiting for others CPUs to boot. But
the nr_busy_cpus field is initialized later with the assumption
that all CPUs are in the busy state whereas some CPUs have
already set their NOHZ_IDLE flag.
More generally, the NOHZ_IDLE flag must be initialized when new
sched_domains are created in order to ensure that NOHZ_IDLE and
nr_busy_cpus are aligned.
This condition can be ensured by adding a synchronize_rcu()
between the destruction of old sched_domains and the creation of
new ones so the NOHZ_IDLE flag will not be updated with old
sched_domain once it has been initialized. But this solution
introduces a additionnal latency in the rebuild sequence that is
called during cpu hotplug.
As suggested by Frederic Weisbecker, another solution is to have
the same rcu lifecycle for both NOHZ_IDLE and sched_domain
struct. A new nohz_idle field is added to sched_domain so both
status and sched_domain will share the same RCU lifecycle and
will be always synchronized. In addition, there is no more need
to protect nohz_idle against concurrent access as it is only
modified by 2 exclusive functions called by local cpu.
This solution has been prefered to the creation of a new struct
with an extra pointer indirection for sched_domain.
The synchronization is done at the cost of :
- An additional indirection and a rcu_dereference for accessing nohz_idle.
- We use only the nohz_idle field of the top sched_domain.

[ Fixed !NO_HZ build bug. ]
Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
One testbox of mine (Intel Nehalem, 16-way) uses MWAIT for its idle routine,
which apparently can break out of its idle loop rather frequently, with
high frequency.
In that case NO_HZ_FULL=y kernels show high ksoftirqd overhead and constant
context switching, because tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() will, if
delta_jiffies == 0, mis-identify this as a timer event - activating the
TIMER_SOFTIRQ, which wakes up ksoftirqd.
Fix this by treating delta_jiffies == 0 the same way we treat other short
wakeups, delta_jiffies == 1.

Vitaliy reported that a per cpu HPET timer interrupt crashes the
system during hibernation. What happens is that the per cpu HPET timer
gets shut down when the nonboot cpus are stopped. When the nonboot
cpus are onlined again the HPET code sets up the MSI interrupt which
fires before the clock event device is registered. The event handler
is still set to hrtimer_interrupt, which then crashes the machine due
to highres mode not being active.
See http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=700333
There is no real good way to avoid that in the HPET code. The HPET
code alrady has a mechanism to detect spurious interrupts when event
handler == NULL for a similar reason.
We can handle that in the clockevent/tick layer and replace the
previous functional handler with a dummy handler like we do in
tick_setup_new_device().
The original clockevents code did this in clockevents_exchange_device(),
but that got removed by commit 7c1e76897 (clockevents: prevent
clockevent event_handler ending up handler_noop) which forgot to fix
it up in tick_shutdown(). Same issue with the broadcast device.

Commit 88b8dac0 makes load_balance() consider other cpus in its
group. But, in that, there is no code for preventing to
re-select dst-cpu. So, same dst-cpu can be selected over and
over.
This patch add functionality to load_balance() in order to
exclude cpu which is selected once. We prevent to re-select
dst_cpu via env's cpus, so now, env's cpus is a candidate not
only for src_cpus, but also dst_cpus.
With this patch, we can remove lb_iterations and
max_lb_iterations, because we decide whether we can go ahead or
not via env's cpus.

Currently, LBF_ALL_PINNED is cleared after affinity check is
passed. So, if task migration is skipped by small load value or
small imbalance value in move_tasks(), we don't clear
LBF_ALL_PINNED. At last, we trigger 'redo' in load_balance().
Imbalance value is often so small that any tasks cannot be moved
to other cpus and, of course, this situation may be continued
after we change the target cpu. So this patch move up affinity
check code and clear LBF_ALL_PINNED before evaluating load value
in order to mitigate useless redoing overhead.

Commit 88b8dac0 makes load_balance() consider other cpus in its
group, regardless of idle type. When we do NEWLY_IDLE balancing,
we should not consider it, because a motivation of NEWLY_IDLE
balancing is to turn this cpu to non idle state if needed. This
is not the case of other cpus. So, change code not to consider
other cpus for NEWLY_IDLE balancing.
With this patch, assign 'if (pulled_task) this_rq->idle_stamp =
0' in idle_balance() is corrected, because NEWLY_IDLE balancing
doesn't consider other cpus. Assigning to 'this_rq->idle_stamp'
is now valid.

It makes testing and implementation much easier as we
know in advance that all CPUs are RCU nocbs.
Also this prepares to remove the dynamic check for
nohz_full= boot mask to be a subset of rcu_nocbs=
Eventually this should also help removing the requirement
for the boot CPU to be outside the full dynticks range.

When a task is scheduled in, it may have some properties
of its own that could make the CPU reconsider the need for
the tick: posix cpu timers, perf events, ...
So notify the full dynticks subsystem when a task gets
scheduled in and re-check the tick dependency at this
stage. This is done through a self IPI to avoid messing
up with any current lock scenario.

Interrupt exit is a natural place to stop the tick: it happens
after all events happening before and during the irq which
are liable to update the dependency on the tick occured. Also
it makes sure that any check on tick dependency is well ordered
against dynticks kick IPIs.
Bring in the infrastructure that performs the tick dependency
checks on irq exit and shut it down if these checks show that we
can do it safely.

Implement the full dynticks kick that is performed from
IPIs sent by various subsystems (scheduler, posix timers, ...)
when they want to notify about a new event that may
reconsider the dependency on the tick.
Most of the time, such an event end up restarting the tick.
(Part of the design with subsystems providing *_can_stop_tick()
helpers suggested by Peter Zijlstra a while ago).

The scheduler IPI is used by the scheduler to kick
full dynticks CPUs asynchronously when more than one
task are running or when a new timer list timer is
enqueued. This way the destination CPU can decide
to restart the tick to handle this new situation.
Now let's call that kick in the scheduler IPI.
(Reusing the scheduler IPI rather than implementing
a new IPI was suggested by Peter Zijlstra a while ago)

Kick the tick on full dynticks CPUs when they get more
than one task running on their queue. This makes sure that
local fairness is maintained by the tick on the destination.
This is done regardless of these tasks' class. We should
be able to be more clever in the future depending on these. eg:
a CPU that runs a SCHED_FIFO task doesn't need to maintain
fairness against local pending tasks of the fair class.
But keep things simple for now.

The current update of the rq's load can be erroneous when RT
tasks are involved.
The update of the load of a rq that becomes idle, is done only
if the avg_idle is less than sysctl_sched_migration_cost. If RT
tasks and short idle duration alternate, the runnable_avg will
not be updated correctly and the time will be accounted as idle
time when a CFS task wakes up.
A new idle_enter function is called when the next task is the
idle function so the elapsed time will be accounted as run time
in the load of the rq, whatever the average idle time is. The
function update_rq_runnable_avg is removed from idle_balance.
When a RT task is scheduled on an idle CPU, the update of the
rq's load is not done when the rq exit idle state because CFS's
functions are not called. Then, the idle_balance, which is
called just before entering the idle function, updates the rq's
load and makes the assumption that the elapsed time since the
last update, was only running time.
As a consequence, the rq's load of a CPU that only runs a
periodic RT task, is close to LOAD_AVG_MAX whatever the running
duration of the RT task is.
A new idle_exit function is called when the prev task is the
idle function so the elapsed time will be accounted as idle time
in the rq's load.

Pull kdump fixes from Peter Anvin:
"The kexec/kdump people have found several problems with the support
for loading over 4 GiB that was introduced in this merge cycle. This
is partly due to a number of design problems inherent in the way the
various pieces of kdump fit together (it is pretty horrifically manual
in many places.)
After a *lot* of iterations this is the patchset that was agreed upon,
but of course it is now very late in the cycle. However, because it
changes both the syntax and semantics of the crashkernel option, it
would be desirable to avoid a stable release with the broken
interfaces."
I'm not happy with the timing, since originally the plan was to release
the final 3.9 tomorrow. But apparently I'm doing an -rc8 instead...

Somehow tracepoint_entry_add_probe() function allows a null probe function.
And, this may lead to unexpected results since the number of probe
functions in an entry can be counted by checking whether a probe is null
or not in the for-loop.
This patch prevents a null probe from being added.
In tracepoint_entry_remove_probe() function, checking probe parameter
within the for-loop is moved out for code efficiency, leaving the null probe
feature which removes all probe functions in the entry.

The timekeeping job must be able to run early on boot
because there may be some pre-SMP (and thus pre-initcalls )
components that rely on it. The IO-APIC is one such users
as it tests the timer health by watching jiffies progression.
Given that it happens before we know the initial online
set, we can't rely on it to select a timekeeper. We need
one before SMP time otherwise we simply crash on boot.
To fix this and keep things simple for now, force the boot CPU
outside of the full dynticks range in any case and do this early
on kernel parameter parsing time.
We might want a trickier solution later, expecially for aSMP
architectures that need to assign housekeeping tasks to arbitrary
low power CPUs.
But it's still first pass KISS time for now.

Linus suggested that probably all the supported architectures can

then back out the architecture specific change and allow the

The current mutex spinning code (with MUTEX_SPIN_ON_OWNER option
turned on) allow multiple tasks to spin on a single mutex
concurrently. A potential problem with the current approach is
that when the mutex becomes available, all the spinning tasks
will try to acquire the mutex more or less simultaneously. As a
result, there will be a lot of cacheline bouncing especially on
systems with a large number of CPUs.
This patch tries to reduce this kind of contention by putting
the mutex spinners into a queue so that only the first one in
the queue will try to acquire the mutex. This will reduce
contention and allow all the tasks to move forward faster.
The queuing of mutex spinners is done using an MCS lock based
implementation which will further reduce contention on the mutex
cacheline than a similar ticket spinlock based implementation.
This patch will add a new field into the mutex data structure
for holding the MCS lock. This expands the mutex size by 8 bytes
for 64-bit system and 4 bytes for 32-bit system. This overhead
will be avoid if the MUTEX_SPIN_ON_OWNER option is turned off.

At low user range 10-100, the JPM differences were within +/-1%.
So they are not that interesting.
The fserver workload uses mutex spinning extensively. With just
the mutex change in the first patch, there is no noticeable
change in performance. Rather, there is a slight drop in
performance. This mutex spinning patch more than recovers the
lost performance and show a significant increase of +30% at high
user load with the full 8 nodes. Similar improvements were also
seen in a 3.8 kernel.
The table below shows the %time spent by different kernel
functions as reported by perf when running the fserver workload
at 1500 users with all 8 nodes.
+-----------------------+-----------+---------+-------------+
| Function | % time | % time | % time |
| | w/o patch | patch 1 | patches 1&2 |
+-----------------------+-----------+---------+-------------+
| __read_lock_failed | 34.96% | 34.91% | 29.14% |
| __write_lock_failed | 10.14% | 10.68% | 7.51% |
| mutex_spin_on_owner | 3.62% | 3.42% | 2.33% |
| mspin_lock | N/A | N/A | 9.90% |
| __mutex_lock_slowpath | 1.46% | 0.81% | 0.14% |
| _raw_spin_lock | 2.25% | 2.50% | 1.10% |
+-----------------------+-----------+---------+-------------+
The fserver workload for an 8-node system is dominated by the
contention in the read/write lock. Mutex contention also plays a
role. With the first patch only, mutex contention is down (as
shown by the __mutex_lock_slowpath figure) which help a little
bit. We saw only a few percents improvement with that.
By applying patch 2 as well, the single mutex_spin_on_owner
figure is now split out into an additional mspin_lock figure.
The time increases from 3.42% to 11.23%. It shows a great
reduction in contention among the spinners leading to a 30%
improvement. The time ratio 9.9/2.33=4.3 indicates that there
are on average 4+ spinners waiting in the spin_lock loop for
each spinner in the mutex_spin_on_owner loop. Contention in
other locking functions also go down by quite a lot.
The table below shows the performance change of both patches 1 &
2 over patch 1 alone in other AIM7 workloads (at 8 nodes,
hyperthreading off).
+--------------+---------------+----------------+-----------------+
| Workload | mean % change | mean % change | mean % change |
| | 10-100 users | 200-1000 users | 1100-2000 users |

| shared | -0.5% | -0.3% | -0.4% |
| short | -1.7% | -9.8% | -8.3% |
+--------------+---------------+----------------+-----------------+
The short workload is the only one that shows a decline in
performance probably due to the spinner locking and queuing
overhead.

In the __mutex_lock_common() function, an initial entry into
the lock slow path will cause two atomic_xchg instructions to be
issued. Together with the atomic decrement in the fast path, a
total of three atomic read-modify-write instructions will be
issued in rapid succession. This can cause a lot of cache
bouncing when many tasks are trying to acquire the mutex at the
same time.
This patch will reduce the number of atomic_xchg instructions
used by checking the counter value first before issuing the
instruction. The atomic_read() function is just a simple memory
read. The atomic_xchg() function, on the other hand, can be up
to 2 order of magnitude or even more in cost when compared with
atomic_read(). By using atomic_read() to check the value first
before calling atomic_xchg(), we can avoid a lot of unnecessary
cache coherency traffic. The only downside with this change is
that a task on the slow path will have a tiny bit less chance of
getting the mutex when competing with another task in the fast
path.
The same is true for the atomic_cmpxchg() function in the
mutex-spin-on-owner loop. So an atomic_read() is also performed
before calling atomic_cmpxchg().
The mutex locking and unlocking code for the x86 architecture
can allow any negative number to be used in the mutex count to
indicate that some tasks are waiting for the mutex. I am not so
sure if that is the case for the other architectures. So the
default is to avoid atomic_xchg() if the count has already been
set to -1. For x86, the check is modified to include all
negative numbers to cover a larger case.

At low user range 10-100, the JPM differences were within +/-1%.
So they are not that interesting.
AIM7 benchmark run has a pretty large run-to-run variance due to
random nature of the subtests executed. So a difference of less
than +-5% may not be really significant.
This patch improves high_systime workload performance at 4 nodes
and up by maintaining transaction rates without significant
drop-off at high node count. The patch has practically no
impact on 1 and 2 nodes system.
The table below shows the percentage time (as reported by perf
record -a -s -g) spent on the __mutex_lock_slowpath() function
by the high_systime workload at 1500 users for 2/4/8-node
configurations with hyperthreading off.
+---------------+-----------------+------------------+---------+
| Configuration | %Time w/o patch | %Time with patch | %Change |

| 8 nodes | 65.34% | 0.69% | -99% |

| 2 nodes | 0.41% | 0.32% | -22% |
+---------------+-----------------+------------------+---------+
It is obvious that the dramatic performance improvement at 8
nodes was due to the drastic cut in the time spent within the
__mutex_lock_slowpath() function.
The table below show the improvements in other AIM7 workloads
(at 8 nodes, hyperthreading off).

We should store file xattrs in struct cfent instead of struct cftype,
because cftype is a type while cfent is object instance of cftype.
For example each cgroup has a tasks file, and each tasks file is
associated with a uniq cfent, but all those files share the same
struct cftype.
Alexey Kodanev reported a crash, which can be reproduced:
# mount -t cgroup -o xattr /sys/fs/cgroup
# mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/test
# setfattr -n trusted.value -v test_value /sys/fs/cgroup/tasks
# rmdir /sys/fs/cgroup/test
# umount /sys/fs/cgroup
oops!
In this case, simple_xattrs_free() will free the same struct simple_xattrs
twice.

Fix a double locking bug caused when debug.kprobe-optimization=0.
While the proc_kprobes_optimization_handler locks kprobe_mutex,
wait_for_kprobe_optimizer locks it again and that causes a double lock.
To fix the bug, this introduces different mutex for protecting
sysctl parameter and locks it in proc_kprobes_optimization_handler.
Of course, since we need to lock kprobe_mutex when touching kprobes
resources, that is done in *optimize_all_kprobes().

tick_oneshot_notify() is used to notify a particular CPU to try
to switch into oneshot mode after a oneshot capable tick device
is registered and tick_clock_notify() is used to notify all CPUs
to try to switch into oneshot mode after a high res clocksource
is registered. There is one caveat; if the tick devices suffer
from FEAT_C3_STOP we don't try to switch into oneshot mode unless
we have a oneshot capable broadcast device already registered.
If the broadcast device is registered after the tick devices that
have FEAT_C3_STOP we'll never try to switch into oneshot mode
again, causing us to be stuck in periodic mode forever. Avoid
this scenario by calling tick_clock_notify() after we register
the broadcast device so that we try to switch into oneshot mode
on all CPUs one more time.

When running with 4096 cores attemping to read /proc/timer_list will fail

failure can also occur on smaller systems when memory fragmentation is
high as reported by Dave Jones.
Convert /proc/timer_list to a proper seq_file with its own iterator. This
is a little more complex given that we have to make two passes with two

Currently kernel generates IDs for posix timers in a global manner --
there's a kernel-wide IDR tree from which IDs are created. This makes
it impossible to recreate a timer with a desired ID (in particular
this is done by the CRIU checkpoint-restore project) -- since these
IDs are global it may happen, that at the time we recreate a timer, the
ID we want for it is already busy by some other timer.
In order to address this, replace the IDR tree with a global hash
table for timers and makes timer IDs unique per signal_struct (to
which timers are linked anyway). With this, two timers belonging to
different processes may have equal IDs and we can recreate either of
them with the ID we want.

Adaptive-ticks CPUs inform RCU when they enter kernel mode, but they do
not necessarily turn the scheduler-clock tick back on. This state of
affairs could result in RCU waiting on an adaptive-ticks CPU running
for an extended period in kernel mode. Such a CPU will never run the
RCU state machine, and could therefore indefinitely extend the RCU state
machine, sooner or later resulting in an OOM condition.
This patch, inspired by an earlier patch by Frederic Weisbecker, therefore
causes RCU's force-quiescent-state processing to check for this condition
and to send an IPI to CPUs that remain in that state for too long.
"Too long" currently means about three jiffies by default, which is
quite some time for a CPU to remain in the kernel without blocking.
The rcu_tree.jiffies_till_first_fqs and rcutree.jiffies_till_next_fqs
sysfs variables may be used to tune "too long" if needed.

"Extended nohz" was used as a naming base for the full dynticks
API and Kconfig symbols. It reflects the fact the system tries
to stop the tick in more places than just idle.
But that "extended" name is a bit opaque and vague. Rename it to
"full" makes it clearer what the system tries to do under this
config: try to shutdown the tick anytime it can. The various
constraints that prevent that to happen shouldn't be considered
as fundamental properties of this feature but rather technical
issues that may be solved in the future.

In order to enforce backward compatibility with older
config files, we want the new dynticks-idle Kconfig entry
to default its value to the one of the old CONFIG_NO_HZ symbol
if present.
Namely we want:
config NO_HZ # old obsolete dynticks idle symbol
bool
config NO_HZ_IDLE # new dynticks idle symbol
default NO_HZ
However Kconfig prevents this to work if the old symbol
is not visible. And this is currently the case because
NO_HZ lacks a title in order to show it in make oldconfig
and alike.
To fix this, bring a minimal title and help text to the
obsolete Kconfig entry that explains its purpose. This
makes the "defaulting" to work.

It's a sad fact that at this point various cgroup controllers are
carrying so many idiosyncrasies and pure insanities that it simply
isn't possible to reach any sort of sane consistent behavior while
maintaining staying fully compatible with what already has been
exposed to userland.
As we can't break exposed userland interface, transitioning to sane
behaviors can only be done in steps while maintaining backwards
compatibility. This patch introduces a new mount option -
__DEVEL__sane_behavior - which disables crazy features and enforces
consistent behaviors in cgroup core proper and various controllers.
As exactly which behaviors it changes are still being determined, the
mount option, at this point, is useful only for development of the new
behaviors. As such, the mount option is prefixed with __DEVEL__ and
generates a warning message when used.
Eventually, once we get to the point where all controller's behaviors
are consistent enough to implement unified hierarchy, the __DEVEL__
prefix will be dropped, and more importantly, unified-hierarchy will
enforce sane_behavior by default. Maybe we'll able to completely drop
the crazy stuff after a while, maybe not, but we at least have a
strategy to move on to saner behaviors.
This patch introduces the mount option and changes the following
behaviors in cgroup core.
* Mount options "noprefix" and "clone_children" are disallowed. Also,
cgroupfs file cgroup.clone_children is not created.
* When mounting an existing superblock, mount options should match.
This is currently pretty crazy. If one mounts a cgroup, creates a
subdirectory, unmounts it and then mount it again with different
option, it looks like the new options are applied but they aren't.
* Remount is disallowed.
The behaviors changes are documented in the comment above
CGRP_ROOT_SANE_BEHAVIOR enum and will be expanded as different
controllers are converted and planned improvements progress.

Instead when privilege is required require both the opener and the

I have tested this code and verified that setting /proc/<pid>/uid_map
fails when an unprivileged user opens the file and a privielged user
attempts to set the mapping, that unprivileged users can still map
their own id, and that a privileged users can still setup an arbitrary

As ftrace_filter_lseek is now used with ftrace_pid_fops, it needs to
be moved out of the #ifdef CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE section as the
ftrace_pid_fops is defined when DYNAMIC_FTRACE is not.

Currently set_ftrace_pid and set_graph_function files use seq_lseek
for their fops. However seq_open() is called only for FMODE_READ in
the fops->open() so that if an user tries to seek one of those file
when she open it for writing, it sees NULL seq_file and then panic.
It can be easily reproduced with following command:
$ cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
$ echo 1234 | sudo tee -a set_ftrace_pid
In this example, GNU coreutils' tee opens the file with fopen(, "a")
and then the fopen() internally calls lseek().

The smpboot threads rely on the park/unpark mechanism which binds per
cpu threads on a particular core. Though the functionality is racy:
CPU0 CPU1 CPU2
unpark(T) wake_up_process(T)
clear(SHOULD_PARK) T runs
leave parkme() due to !SHOULD_PARK
bind_to(CPU2) BUG_ON(wrong CPU)
We cannot let the tasks move themself to the target CPU as one of
those tasks is actually the migration thread itself, which requires
that it starts running on the target cpu right away.
The solution to this problem is to prevent wakeups in park mode which
are not from unpark(). That way we can guarantee that the association
of the task to the target cpu is working correctly.
Add a new task state (TASK_PARKED) which prevents other wakeups and
use this state explicitly for the unpark wakeup.
Peter noticed: Also, since the task state is visible to userspace and
all the parked tasks are still in the PID space, its a good hint in ps
and friends that these tasks aren't really there for the moment.
The migration thread has another related issue.
CPU0 CPU1
Bring up CPU2
create_thread(T)
park(T)
wait_for_completion()
parkme()
complete()
sched_set_stop_task()
schedule(TASK_PARKED)
The sched_set_stop_task() call is issued while the task is on the
runqueue of CPU1 and that confuses the hell out of the stop_task class
on that cpu. So we need the same synchronizaion before
sched_set_stop_task().

If the audit system collects a record about one process sending a signal
to another process it includes in that collection the 'secid' or 'an int
used to represet an LSM label.' If there is no LSM enabled it will
collect a 0. The problem is that when we attempt to print that record
we ask the LSM to convert the secid back to a string. Since there is no
LSM it returns EOPNOTSUPP.
Most code in the audit system checks if the secid is 0 and does not
print LSM info in that case. The signal information code however forgot
that check. Thus users will see a message in syslog indicating that
converting the sid to string failed. Add the right check.

perf_event is one of a couple remaining cgroup controllers with broken
hierarchy support. Converting it to support hierarchy is almost
trivial. The only thing necessary is to consider a task belonging to
a descendant cgroup as a match. IOW, if the cgroup of the currently
executing task (@cpuctx->cgrp) equals or is a descendant of the
event's cgroup (@event->cgrp), then the event should be enabled.
Implement hierarchy support and remove .broken_hierarchy tag along

A couple controllers want to determine whether two cgroups are in

descendant is the primary subject of interest and there are other

is still to high to pass to the ktime_set() function as long. The result
in is a negative value.
The problem on my system occurs in the tick-sched.c,
tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() when time_delta is set to
timekeeping_max_deferment(). The check for time_delta < KTIME_MAX is
valid, thus ktime_add_ns() is called with a too large value resulting in
a negative expire value. This leads to an endless loop in the ticker code:
time_delta: 7881299347898368000
expires = ktime_add_ns(last_update, time_delta)
expires: negative value
This fix caps the value to KTIME_MAX.
This error doesn't occurs on 64bit or architectures supporting
CONFIG_KTIME_SCALAR (e.g. ARM, x86-32).

When we change the system time to a low value like this, the value of
timekeeper->offs_real will be a negative value.
It seems that the WARN occurs because an hrtimer has been started in the time
between the releasing of the timekeeper lock and the IPI call (via a call to
on_each_cpu) in clock_was_set() in the do_settimeofday() code. The end result
is that a REALTIME_CLOCK timer has been added with softexpires = expires =
KTIME_MAX. The hrtimer_interrupt() fires/is called and the loop at
kernel/hrtimer.c:1289 is executed. In this loop the code subtracts the
clock base's offset (which was set to timekeeper->offs_real in
do_settimeofday()) from the current hrtimer_cpu_base->expiry value (which
was KTIME_MAX):
KTIME_MAX - (a negative value) = overflow
A simple check for an overflow can resolve this problem. Using KTIME_MAX
instead of the overflow value will result in the hrtimer function being run,
and the reprogramming of the timer after that.

registers itself with kaudit. This was fine when only auditd consumed messages
from the kaudit netlink unicast socket. With the addition of a multicast group
to that socket it is more convenient to have the thread start on init of the

As commit 40dc166c (PM / Core: Introduce struct syscore_ops for core
subsystems PM) say, syscore_ops operations should be carried with one
CPU on-line and interrupts disabled. However, after commit f96972f2d
(kernel/sys.c: call disable_nonboot_cpus() in kernel_restart()),
syscore_shutdown() is called before disable_nonboot_cpus(), so break
the rules. We have a MIPS machine with a 8259A PIC, and there is an
external timer (HPET) linked at 8259A. Since 8259A has been shutdown
too early (by syscore_shutdown()), disable_nonboot_cpus() runs without
timer interrupt, so it hangs and reboot fails. This patch call
syscore_shutdown() a little later (after disable_nonboot_cpus()) to
avoid reboot failure, this is the same way as poweroff does.
For consistency, add disable_nonboot_cpus() to kernel_halt().

The function tracing control loop used by perf spits out a warning
if the called function is not a control function. This is because
the control function references a per cpu allocated data structure
on struct ftrace_ops that is not allocated for other types of
functions.
commit 0a016409e4 "ftrace: Optimize the function tracer list loop"
Had an optimization done to all function tracing loops to optimize
for a single registered ops. Unfortunately, this allows for a slight
race when tracing starts or ends, where the stub function might be
called after the current registered ops is removed. In this case we
get the following dump:

To fix this a new ftrace_ops flag is added that denotes the ftrace_list_end
ftrace_ops stub as just that, a stub. This flag is now checked in the
control loop and the function is not called if the flag is set.
