per-task block plug can reduce block queue lock contention and increase request merge. Currently page reclaim doesn't support it. I originally thought page reclaim doesn't need it, because kswapd thread count is limited and file cache write is done at flusher mostly. When I test a workload with heavy swap in a 4-node machine, each CPU is doing direct page reclaim and swap. This causes block queue lock contention. In my test, without below patch, the CPU utilization is about 2% ~ 7%. With the patch, the CPU utilization is about 1% ~ 3%. Disk throughput isn't changed. This should improve normal kswapd write and file cache write too (increase request merge for example), but might not be so obvious as I explain above.

radix_tree_tag_get()'s BUG (when it sees a tag after saw_unset_tag) was unsafe and removed in 2.6.34, but the pointless saw_unset_tag left behind. Remove it now, and return 0 as soon as we see unset tag - we already rely upon the root tag to be correct, returning 0 immediately if it's not set.

In __zone_reclaim case, we don't want to shrink mapped page. Nonetheless, we have isolated mapped page and re-add it into LRU's head. It's unnecessary CPU overhead and makes LRU churning. Of course, when we isolate the page, the page might be mapped but when we try to migrate the page, the page would be not mapped. So it could be migrated. But race is rare and although it happens, it's no big deal.

In async mode, compaction doesn't migrate dirty or writeback pages. So, it's meaningless to pick the page and re-add it to lru list. Of course, when we isolate the page in compaction, the page might be dirty or writeback but when we try to migrate the page, the page would be not dirty, writeback. So it could be migrated. But it's very unlikely as isolate and migration cycle is much faster than writeout. So, this patch helps cpu overhead and prevent unnecessary LRU churning.

acct_isolated of compaction uses page_lru_base_type which returns only base type of LRU list so it never returns LRU_ACTIVE_ANON or LRU_ACTIVE_FILE. In addtion, cc->nr_[anon|file] is used in only acct_isolated so it doesn't have fields in conpact_control. This patch removes fields from compact_control and makes clear function of acct_issolated which counts the number of anon|file pages isolated.

The basic idea behind cross memory attach is to allow MPI programs doing intra-node communication to do a single copy of the message rather than a double copy of the message via shared memory. The following patch attempts to achieve this by allowing a destination process, given an address and size from a source process, to copy memory directly from the source process into its own address space via a system call. There is also a symmetrical ability to copy from the current process's address space into a destination process's address space. - Use of /proc/pid/mem has been considered, but there are issues with using it: - Does not allow for specifying iovecs for both src and dest, assuming preadv or pwritev was implemented either the area read from or written to would need to be contiguous. - Currently mem_read allows only processes who are currently ptrace'ing the target and are still able to ptrace the target to read from the target. This check could possibly be moved to the open call, but its not clear exactly what race this restriction is stopping (reason appears to have been lost) - Having to send the fd of /proc/self/mem via SCM_RIGHTS on unix domain socket is a bit ugly from a userspace point of view, especially when you may have hundreds if not (eventually) thousands of processes that all need to do this with each other - Doesn't allow for some future use of the interface we would like to consider adding in the future (see below) - Interestingly reading from /proc/pid/mem currently actually involves two copies! (But this could be fixed pretty easily) As mentioned previously use of vmsplice instead was considered, but has problems. Since you need the reader and writer working co-operatively if the pipe is not drained then you block. Which requires some wrapping to do non blocking on the send side or polling on the receive. In all to all communication it requires ordering otherwise you can deadlock. And in the example of many MPI tasks writing to one MPI task vmsplice serialises the copying. There are some cases of MPI collectives where even a single copy interface does not get us the performance gain we could. For example in an MPI_Reduce rather than copy the data from the source we would like to instead use it directly in a mathops (say the reduce is doing a sum) as this would save us doing a copy. We don't need to keep a copy of the data from the source. I haven't implemented this, but I think this interface could in the future do all this through the use of the flags - eg could specify the math operation and type and the kernel rather than just copying the data would apply the specified operation between the source and destination and store it in the destination. Although we don't have a "second user" of the interface (though I've had some nibbles from people who may be interested in using it for intra process messaging which is not MPI). This interface is something which hardware vendors are already doing for their custom drivers to implement fast local communication. And so in addition to this being useful for OpenMPI it would mean the driver maintainers don't have to fix things up when the mm changes. There was some discussion about how much faster a true zero copy would go. Here's a link back to the email with some testing I did on that: http://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=130105930902915&w=2 There is a basic man page for the proposed interface here: http://ozlabs.org/~cyeoh/cma/process_vm_readv.txt This has been implemented for x86 and powerpc, other architecture should mainly (I think) just need to add syscall numbers for the process_vm_readv and process_vm_writev. There are 32 bit compatibility versions for 64-bit kernels. For arch maintainers there are some simple tests to be able to quickly verify that the syscalls are working correctly here: http://ozlabs.org/~cyeoh/cma/cma-test-20110718.tgzSigned-off-by: Chris Yeoh <yeohc@au1.ibm.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: "H.

This is a fairly serious bug in RAID10. When a RAID10 array is degraded and a hot-spare is activated, the spare does not take up the empty slot, but rather replaces the first working device. This is likely to make the array non-functional. It would normally be possible to recover the data, but that would need care and is not guaranteed. This bug was introduced in commit 2bb77736 which first appeared in 3.1. Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

Jean Delvare authored
Always failing to register I2C buses when the line testing fails is a little harsh. While such a failure is definitely a bug in the driver that exposes the affected I2C bus, things may still work fine if the missing initialization steps are done later, before the I2C bus is used. So it seems a better debugging tool to just report the test failure by default. I introduce bit_test=2 if anyone really misses the original behavior of bit_test=1.

AMD processors apparently have a bug in the hardware task switching support when NPT is enabled. If the task switch triggers a NPF, we can get wrong EXITINTINFO along with that fault. On resume, spurious exceptions may then be injected into the guest. We were able to reproduce this bug when our guest triggered #SS and the handler were supposed to run over a separate task with not yet touched stack pages. Work around the issue by continuing to emulate task switches even in NPT mode. Signed-off-by: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@siemens.com> Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com>

KVM common code does vcpu_load prior to calling our arch ioctls and vcpu_put after we're done here. Via the kvm_arch_vcpu_load/put callbacks we do load the fpu and access register state into the processor, which saves us moving the state on every SIE exit the kernel handles. However this breaks register setting from userspace, because of the following sequence: 1a. vcpu load stores userspace register content 1b. vcpu load loads guest register content 2. kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_set_fpu/sregs updates saved guest register content 3a. vcpu put stores the guest registers and overwrites the new content 3b. vcpu put loads the userspace register set again This patch loads the new guest register state into the cpu, so that the correct (new) set of guest registers will be stored in step 3a.

We really need to change pkt_type only if no more rx_handler is about to be called for the packet.

The route lookup to find a previously auto-configured route for a prefixes used to use rt6_lookup(), with the prefix from the RA used as an address. However, that kind of lookup ignores routing tables, the prefix length and route flags, so when there were other matching routes, even in different tables and/or with a different prefix length, the wrong route would be manipulated. Now, a new function "addrconf_get_prefix_route()" is used for the route lookup, which searches in RT6_TABLE_PREFIX and takes the prefix-length and route flags into account.

This patch resolves two sets of race conditions. Mitsuo Hayasaka <mitsuo.hayasaka.hu@hitachi.com> reported the first, as follows: The bond_close() calls cancel_delayed_work() to cancel delayed works. It, however, cannot cancel works that were already queued in workqueue. The bond_open() initializes work->data, and proccess_one_work() refers get_work_cwq(work)->wq->flags. The get_work_cwq() returns NULL when work->data has been initialized. Thus, a panic occurs. He included a patch that converted the cancel_delayed_work calls in bond_close to flush_delayed_work_sync, which eliminated the above problem. His patch is incorporated, at least in principle, into this patch. In this patch, we use cancel_delayed_work_sync in place of flush_delayed_work_sync, and also convert bond_uninit in addition to bond_close. This conversion to _sync, however, opens new races between bond_close and three periodically executing workqueue functions: bond_mii_monitor, bond_alb_monitor and bond_activebackup_arp_mon. The race occurs because bond_close and bond_uninit are always called with RTNL held, and these workqueue functions may acquire RTNL to perform failover-related activities. If bond_close or bond_uninit is waiting in cancel_delayed_work_sync, deadlock occurs. These deadlocks are resolved by having the workqueue functions acquire RTNL conditionally. If the rtnl_trylock() fails, the functions reschedule and return immediately. For the cases that are attempting to perform link failover, a delay of 1 is used; for the other cases, the normal interval is used (as those activities are not as time critical). Additionally, the bond_mii_monitor function now stores the delay in a variable (mimicing the structure of activebackup_arp_mon). Lastly, all of the above renders the kill_timers sentinel moot, and therefore it has been removed.

o Updated version number to 5.0.25 o Do not hold onto RESETTING_BIT for entire duration of LED/ beacon test. Instead, just checking for RESETTING_BIT not set before sending config_led command down to card. o Take rtnl_lock instead of RESETTING_BIT for beacon test while sending config_led command down to make sure interface cannot be brought up/ down. o Allocate and free resources if interface is down before sending the config_led command. This is to make sure config_led command sending doesn't fail. o Clear QLCNIC_LED_ENABLE bit if beacon/ LED test fails to start.
