We have remap_file_pages(2) emulation in -mm tree for few release cycles and we plan to have it mainline in v3.20. This patchset removes rest of VM_NONLINEAR infrastructure. Patches 1-8 take care about generic code. They are pretty straight-forward and can be applied without other of patches. Rest patches removes pte_file()-related stuff from architecture-specific code. It usually frees up one bit in non-present pte. I've tried to reuse that bit for swap offset, where I was able to figure out how to do that. For obvious reason I cannot test all that arch-specific code and would like to see acks from maintainers. In total, remap_file_pages(2) required about 1.4K lines of not-so-trivial kernel code. That's too much for functionality nobody uses. Tested-by: Felipe Balbi <balbi@ti.com> This patch (of 38): We don't create non-linear mappings anymore. Let's drop code which handles them on unmap/zap.

remap_file_pages(2) was invented to be able efficiently map parts of huge file into limited 32-bit virtual address space such as in database workloads. Nonlinear mappings are pain to support and it seems there's no legitimate use-cases nowadays since 64-bit systems are widely available. Let's drop it and get rid of all these special-cased code. The patch replaces the syscall with emulation which creates new VMA on each remap_file_pages(), unless they it can be merged with an adjacent one. I didn't find *any* real code that uses remap_file_pages(2) to test emulation impact on. I've checked Debian code search and source of all packages in ALT Linux. No real users: libc wrappers, mentions in strace, gdb, valgrind and this kind of stuff. There are few basic tests in LTP for the syscall. They work just fine with emulation. To test performance impact, I've written small test case which demonstrate pretty much worst case scenario: map 4G shmfs file, write to begin of every page pgoff of the page, remap pages in reverse order, read every page. The test creates 1 million of VMAs if emulation is in use, so I had to set vm.max_map_count to 1100000 to avoid -ENOMEM.

Here, free memory is allocated using kmem_cache_zalloc. So, use kmem_cache_free instead of kfree. This is done using Coccinelle and semantic patch used is as follows: @@ expression x,E,c; @@ x = \(kmem_cache_alloc\|kmem_cache_zalloc\|kmem_cache_alloc_node\)(c,...) ... when != x = E when != &x ?-kfree(x) +kmem_cache_free(c,x) Signed-off-by: Vaishali Thakkar <vthakkar1994@gmail.com> Acked-by: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux.com> Cc: Pekka Enberg <penberg@kernel.org> Acked-by: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Cc: Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim@lge.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

compound_head() is implemented with assumption that there would be race condition when checking tail flag. This assumption is only true when we try to access arbitrary positioned struct page. The situation that virt_to_head_page() is called is different case. We call virt_to_head_page() only in the range of allocated pages, so there is no race condition on tail flag. In this case, we don't need to handle race condition and we can reduce overhead slightly. This patch implements compound_head_fast() which is similar with compound_head() except tail flag race handling. And then, virt_to_head_page() uses this optimized function to improve performance. I saw 1.8% win in a fast-path loop over kmem_cache_alloc/free, (14.063 ns -> 13.810 ns) if target object is on tail page.

We had to insert a preempt enable/disable in the fastpath a while ago in order to guarantee that tid and kmem_cache_cpu are retrieved on the same cpu. It is the problem only for CONFIG_PREEMPT in which scheduler can move the process to other cpu during retrieving data. Now, I reach the solution to remove preempt enable/disable in the fastpath. If tid is matched with kmem_cache_cpu's tid after tid and kmem_cache_cpu are retrieved by separate this_cpu operation, it means that they are retrieved on the same cpu. If not matched, we just have to retry it. With this guarantee, preemption enable/disable isn't need at all even if CONFIG_PREEMPT, so this patch removes it. I saw roughly 5% win in a fast-path loop over kmem_cache_alloc/free in CONFIG_PREEMPT.

Note that this change slightly worses performance in !CONFIG_PREEMPT, roughly 0.3%. Implementing each case separately would help performance, but, since it's so marginal, I didn't do that. This would help maintanance since we have same code for all cases.

A tiny race between BAST and unlock message causes the NULL dereference. A node sends an unlock request to master and receives a response. Before processing the response it receives a BAST from the master. Since both requests are processed by different threads it creates a race. While the BAST is being processed, lock can get freed by unlock code. This patch makes bast to return immediately if lock is found but unlock is pending. The code should handle this race. We also have to fix master node to skip sending BAST after receiving unlock message.
