7253f4ef04 [PATCH] memory page_alloc zonelist caching reorder structure
Rearrange the struct members in the 'struct zonelist_cache' structure, so
as to put the readonly (once initialized) z_to_n[] array first, where it
will come right after the zones[] array in struct zonelist.

This pretty much eliminates the chance that the two frequently written
elements of 'struct zonelist_cache', the fullzones bitmap and last_full_zap
times, will end up on the same cache line as the performance sensitive,
frequently read, never (after init) written zones[] array.

Keeping frequently written data off frequently read cache lines is good for
performance.

Thanks to Rohit Seth for the suggestion.

9276b1bc96 [PATCH] memory page_alloc zonelist caching speedup
Optimize the critical zonelist scanning for free pages in the kernel memory
allocator by caching the zones that were found to be full recently, and
skipping them.

Remembers the zones in a zonelist that were short of free memory in the
last second.  And it stashes a zone-to-node table in the zonelist struct,
to optimize that conversion (minimize its cache footprint.)

Recent changes:

    This differs in a significant way from a similar patch that I
    posted a week ago.  Now, instead of having a nodemask_t of
    recently full nodes, I have a bitmask of recently full zones.
    This solves a problem that last weeks patch had, which on
    systems with multiple zones per node (such as DMA zone) would
    take seeing any of these zones full as meaning that all zones
    on that node were full.

    Also I changed names - from "zonelist faster" to "zonelist cache",
    as that seemed to better convey what we're doing here - caching
    some of the key zonelist state (for faster access.)

    See below for some performance benchmark results.  After all that
    discussion with David on why I didn't need them, I went and got
    some ;).  I wanted to verify that I had not hurt the normal case
    of memory allocation noticeably.  At least for my one little
    microbenchmark, I found (1) the normal case wasn't affected, and
    (2) workloads that forced scanning across multiple nodes for
    memory improved up to 10% fewer System CPU cycles and lower
    elapsed clock time ('sys' and 'real').  Good.  See details, below.

    I didn't have the logic in get_page_from_freelist() for various
    full nodes and zone reclaim failures correct.  That should be
    fixed up now - notice the new goto labels zonelist_scan,
    this_zone_full, and try_next_zone, in get_page_from_freelist().

There are two reasons I persued this alternative, over some earlier
proposals that would have focused on optimizing the fake numa
emulation case by caching the last useful zone:

 1) Contrary to what I said before, we (SGI, on large ia64 sn2 systems)
    have seen real customer loads where the cost to scan the zonelist
    was a problem, due to many nodes being full of memory before
    we got to a node we could use.  Or at least, I think we have.
    This was related to me by another engineer, based on experiences
    from some time past.  So this is not guaranteed.  Most likely, though.

    The following approach should help such real numa systems just as
    much as it helps fake numa systems, or any combination thereof.

 2) The effort to distinguish fake from real numa, using node_distance,
    so that we could cache a fake numa node and optimize choosing
    it over equivalent distance fake nodes, while continuing to
    properly scan all real nodes in distance order, was going to
    require a nasty blob of zonelist and node distance munging.

    The following approach has no new dependency on node distances or
    zone sorting.

See comment in the patch below for a description of what it actually does.

Technical details of note (or controversy):

 - See the use of "zlc_active" and "did_zlc_setup" below, to delay
   adding any work for this new mechanism until we've looked at the
   first zone in zonelist.  I figured the odds of the first zone
   having the memory we needed were high enough that we should just
   look there, first, then get fancy only if we need to keep looking.

 - Some odd hackery was needed to add items to struct zonelist, while
   not tripping up the custom zonelists built by the mm/mempolicy.c
   code for MPOL_BIND.  My usual wordy comments below explain this.
   Search for "MPOL_BIND".

 - Some per-node data in the struct zonelist is now modified frequently,
   with no locking.  Multiple CPU cores on a node could hit and mangle
   this data.  The theory is that this is just performance hint data,
   and the memory allocator will work just fine despite any such mangling.
   The fields at risk are the struct 'zonelist_cache' fields 'fullzones'
   (a bitmask) and 'last_full_zap' (unsigned long jiffies).  It should
   all be self correcting after at most a one second delay.

 - This still does a linear scan of the same lengths as before.  All
   I've optimized is making the scan faster, not algorithmically
   shorter.  It is now able to scan a compact array of 'unsigned
   short' in the case of many full nodes, so one cache line should
   cover quite a few nodes, rather than each node hitting another
   one or two new and distinct cache lines.

 - If both Andi and Nick don't find this too complicated, I will be
   (pleasantly) flabbergasted.

 - I removed the comment claiming we only use one cachline's worth of
   zonelist.  We seem, at least in the fake numa case, to have put the
   lie to that claim.

 - I pay no attention to the various watermarks and such in this performance
   hint.  A node could be marked full for one watermark, and then skipped
   over when searching for a page using a different watermark.  I think
   that's actually quite ok, as it will tend to slightly increase the
   spreading of memory over other nodes, away from a memory stressed node.

===============

Performance - some benchmark results and analysis:

This benchmark runs a memory hog program that uses multiple
threads to touch alot of memory as quickly as it can.

Multiple runs were made, touching 12, 38, 64 or 90 GBytes out of
the total 96 GBytes on the system, and using 1, 19, 37, or 55
threads (on a 56 CPU system.)  System, user and real (elapsed)
timings were recorded for each run, shown in units of seconds,
in the table below.

Two kernels were tested - 2.6.18-mm3 and the same kernel with
this zonelist caching patch added.  The table also shows the
percentage improvement the zonelist caching sys time is over
(lower than) the stock *-mm kernel.

Notes:
 1) This test ran a memory hog program that started a specified number N of
    threads, and had each thread allocate and touch 1/N'th of
    the total memory to be used in the test run in a single loop,
    writing a constant word to memory, one store every 4096 bytes.
    Watching this test during some earlier trial runs, I would see
    each of these threads sit down on one CPU and stay there, for
    the remainder of the pass, a different CPU for each thread.

 2) The 'real' column is not comparable to the 'sys' or 'user' columns.
    The 'real' column is seconds wall clock time elapsed, from beginning
    to end of that test pass.  The 'sys' and 'user' columns are total
    CPU seconds spent on that test pass.  For a 19 thread test run,
    for example, the sum of 'sys' and 'user' could be up to 19 times the
    number of 'real' elapsed wall clock seconds.

 3) Tests were run on a fresh, single-user boot, to minimize the amount
    of memory already in use at the start of the test, and to minimize
    the amount of background activity that might interfere.

 4) Tests were done on a 56 CPU, 28 Node system with 96 GBytes of RAM.

 5) Notice that the 'real' time gets large for the single thread runs, even
    though the measured 'sys' and 'user' times are modest.  I'm not sure what
    that means - probably something to do with it being slow for one thread to
    be accessing memory along ways away.  Perhaps the fake numa system, running
    ostensibly the same workload, would not show this substantial degradation
    of 'real' time for one thread on many nodes -- lets hope not.

 6) The high thread count passes (one thread per CPU - on 55 of 56 CPUs)
    ran quite efficiently, as one might expect.  Each pair of threads needed
    to allocate and touch the memory on the node the two threads shared, a
    pleasantly parallizable workload.

 7) The intermediate thread count passes, when asking for alot of memory forcing
    them to go to a few neighboring nodes, improved the most with this zonelist
    caching patch.

Conclusions:
 * This zonelist cache patch probably makes little difference one way or the
   other for most workloads on real numa hardware, if those workloads avoid
   heavy off node allocations.
 * For memory intensive workloads requiring substantial off-node allocations
   on real numa hardware, this patch improves both kernel and elapsed timings
   up to ten per-cent.
 * For fake numa systems, I'm optimistic, but will have to leave that up to
   Rohit Seth to actually test (once I get him a 2.6.18 backport.)

89689ae7f9 [PATCH] Get rid of zone_table[]
The zone table is mostly not needed.  If we have a node in the page flags
then we can get to the zone via NODE_DATA() which is much more likely to be
already in the cpu cache.

In case of SMP and UP NODE_DATA() is a constant pointer which allows us to
access an exact replica of zonetable in the node_zones field.  In all of
the above cases there will be no need at all for the zone table.

The only remaining case is if in a NUMA system the node numbers do not fit
into the page flags.  In that case we make sparse generate a table that
maps sections to nodes and use that table to to figure out the node number.
 This table is sized to fit in a single cache line for the known 32 bit
NUMA platform which makes it very likely that the information can be
obtained without a cache miss.

For sparsemem the zone table seems to be have been fairly large based on
the maximum possible number of sections and the number of zones per node.
There is some memory saving by removing zone_table.  The main benefit is to
reduce the cache foootprint of the VM from the frequent lookups of zones.
Plus it simplifies the page allocator.

0798e5193c [PATCH] memory page alloc minor cleanups
- s/freeliest/freelist/ spelling fix

- Check for NULL *z zone seems useless - even if it could happen, so
  what?  Perhaps we should have a check later on if we are faced with an
  allocation request that is not allowed to fail - shouldn't that be a
  serious kernel error, passing an empty zonelist with a mandate to not
  fail?

- Initializing 'z' to zonelist->zones can wait until after the first
  get_page_from_freelist() fails; we only use 'z' in the wakeup_kswapd()
  loop, so let's initialize 'z' there, in a 'for' loop.  Seems clearer.

- Remove superfluous braces around a break

- Fix a couple errant spaces

- Adjust indentation on the cpuset_zone_allowed() check, to match the
  lines just before it -- seems easier to read in this case.

- Add another set of braces to the zone_watermark_ok logic

From: Paul Jackson <pj@sgi.com>

  Backout one item from a previous "memory page_alloc minor cleanups" patch.
   Until and unless we are certain that no one can ever pass an empty zonelist
  to __alloc_pages(), this check for an empty zonelist (or some BUG
  equivalent) is essential.  The code in get_page_from_freelist() blow ups if
  passed an empty zonelist.

822191a2fa [PATCH] skip data conversion in compat_sys_mount when data_page is NULL
OpenVZ Linux kernel team has found a problem with mounting in compat mode.

Simple command "mount -t smbfs ..." on Fedora Core 5 distro in 32-bit mode
leads to oops:

  Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000000 RIP: compat_sys_mount+0xd6/0x290

  Call Trace: ia32_sysret+0x0/0xa

The problem is that data_page pointer can be NULL, so we should skip data
conversion in this case.

e77c232cfc [MIPS] Compile __do_IRQ() when really needed
__do_IRQ() is needed only by irq handlers that can't use
default handlers defined in kernel/irq/chip.c.

For others platforms there's no need to compile this function
since it won't be used. For those platforms this patch defines
GENERIC_HARDIRQS_NO__DO_IRQ symbol which is used exactly for
this purpose.

Futhermore for platforms which do not use __do_IRQ(), end()
method which is part of the 'irq_chip' structure is not used.
This patch simply removes this method in this case.

f81cff0d40 [PATCH] uclinux: fix mmap() of directory for nommu case
I was playing with blackfin when i hit a neat bug ... doing an open() on a
directory and then passing that fd to mmap() would cause the kernel to hang

after poking into the code a bit more, i found that
mm/nommu.c:validate_mmap_request() checks the length and if it is 0, just
returns the address ... this is in stark contrast to mmu's
mm/mmap.c:do_mmap_pgoff() where it returns -EINVAL for 0 length requests ...
i then noticed that some other parts of the logic is out of date between the
two funcs, so perhaps that's the easy fix ?

ea0f8feaa0 sh: sh775x/titan fixes for irq header changes.
The following moves the creation of IPR interupts into setup-7750.c
and updates a few other things to make it all work after the "Drop
CPU subtype IRQ headers" commit. It boots and runs fine on my titan
board.

 - adds an ipr_idx to the ipr_data and uses a function in the subtype
   code to calculate the address of the IPR registers

 - adds a function to enable individual interrupt mode for externals
   in the subtype code and calls that from the titan board code
   instead of doing it directly.

 - I changed the shift in the ipr_data to be the actual # of bits to
   shift, instead of the numnber / 4 - made it easier to match with
   the manual.
