WARNING: With this change it is impossible to load external built controllers anymore. In case where CONFIG_NETPRIO_CGROUP=m and CONFIG_NET_CLS_CGROUP=m is set, corresponding subsys_id should also be a constant. Up to now, net_prio_subsys_id and net_cls_subsys_id would be of the type int and the value would be assigned during runtime. By switching the macro definition IS_SUBSYS_ENABLED from IS_BUILTIN to IS_ENABLED, all *_subsys_id will have constant value. That means we need to remove all the code which assumes a value can be assigned to net_prio_subsys_id and net_cls_subsys_id. A close look is necessary on the RCU part which was introduces by following patch: commit f8451725 Author: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Mon May 24 09:12:34 2010 Committer: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Mon May 24 09:12:34 2010 cls_cgroup: Store classid in struct sock Tis code was added to init_cgroup_cls() /* We can't use rcu_assign_pointer because this is an int. */ smp_wmb(); net_cls_subsys_id = net_cls_subsys.subsys_id; respectively to exit_cgroup_cls() net_cls_subsys_id = -1; synchronize_rcu(); and in module version of task_cls_classid() rcu_read_lock(); id = rcu_dereference(net_cls_subsys_id); if (id >= 0) classid = container_of(task_subsys_state(p, id), struct cgroup_cls_state, css)->classid; rcu_read_unlock(); Without an explicit explaination why the RCU part is needed. (The rcu_deference was fixed by exchanging it to rcu_derefence_index_check() in a later commit, but that is a minor detail.) So here is my pondering why it was introduced and why it safe to remove it now. Note that this code was copied over to net_prio the reasoning holds for that subsystem too. The idea behind the RCU use for net_cls_subsys_id is to make sure we get a valid pointer back from task_subsys_state(). task_subsys_state() is just blindly accessing the subsys array and returning the pointer. Obviously, passing in -1 as id into task_subsys_state() returns an invalid value (out of lower bound). So this code makes sure that only after module is loaded and the subsystem registered, the id is assigned. Before unregistering the module all old readers must have left the critical section. This is done by assigning -1 to the id and issuing a synchronized_rcu(). Any new readers wont call task_subsys_state() anymore and therefore it is safe to unregister the subsystem. The new code relies on the same trick, but it looks at the subsys pointer return by task_subsys_state() (remember the id is constant and therefore we allways have a valid index into the subsys array). No precautions need to be taken during module loading module. Eventually, all CPUs will get a valid pointer back from task_subsys_state() because rebind_subsystem() which is called after the module init() function will assigned subsys[net_cls_subsys_id] the newly loaded module subsystem pointer. When the subsystem is about to be removed, rebind_subsystem() will called before the module exit() function. In this case, rebind_subsys() will assign subsys[net_cls_subsys_id] a NULL pointer and then it calls synchronize_rcu(). All old readers have left by then the critical section. Any new reader wont access the subsystem anymore. At this point we are safe to unregister the subsystem. No synchronize_rcu() call is needed.

The *_subsys_id will be used as index to access the subsys. Therefore we need to care we populate the subsystem at the correct position by using designated initialization.

Before we are able to define all subsystem ids at compile time we need a more fine grained control what gets defined when we include cgroup_subsys.h. For example we define the enums for the subsystems or to declare for struct cgroup_subsys (builtin subsystem) by including cgroup_subsys.h and defining SUBSYS accordingly. Currently, the decision if a subsys is used is defined inside the header by testing if CONFIG_*=y is true. By moving this test outside of cgroup_subsys.h we are able to control it on the include level. This is done by introducing IS_SUBSYS_ENABLED which then is defined according the task, e.g. is CONFIG_*=y or CONFIG_*=m.

CGROUP_BUILTIN_SUBSYS_COUNT is used as start index or stop index when looping over the subsys array looking either at the builtin or the module subsystems. Since all the builtin subsystems have an id which is lower then CGROUP_BUILTIN_SUBSYS_COUNT we know that any module will have an id larger than CGROUP_BUILTIN_SUBSYS_COUNT. In short the ids are sorted. We are about to change id assignment to happen only at compile time later in this series. That means we can't rely on the above trick since all ids will always be defined at compile time. Furthermore, ordering the builtin subsystems and the module subsystems is not really necessary. So we need a different way to know which subsystem is a builtin or a module one. We can use the subsys[]->module pointer for this. Any place where we need to know if a subsys is module we just check for the pointer. If it is NULL then the subsystem is a builtin one. With this we are able to drop the CGROUP_BUILTIN_SUBSYS_COUNT enum. Though we need to introduce a temporary placeholder so that we don't get a compilation error when only CONFIG_CGROUP is selected and no single controller. An empty enum definition is not valid. Later in this series we are able to remove the placeholder again. And with this change we get a fix for this: kernel/cgroup.c: In function ‘cgroup_load_subsys’: kernel/cgroup.c:4326:38: warning: array subscript is below array bounds [-Warray-bounds] when CONFIG_CGROUP=y and no built in controller was enabled.

While reading through Documentation/cgroups/cgroups.txt, I found a number of minor wordos and typos. The patch below is a conservative handling of some of these: it provides just a number of "obviously correct" fixes to the English that improve the readability of the document somewhat. Obviously some more significant fixes could be made to the document, but some of those may not be in the "obviously correct" category.

new_xattr in __simple_xattr_set() is only initialized with a valid pointer if value is not NULL, which only happens if this function is called directly with the intention to remove an existing extended attribute. Even being safe to be this way, smatch warns about possible NULL dereference. Dan Carpenter suggested using uninitialized_var() which will make both gcc and smatch happy.

When remounting cgroupfs with some subsystems added to it and some removed, cgroup will remove all the files in root directory and then re-popluate it. What I'm doing here is, only remove files which belong to subsystems that are to be unbinded, and only create files for newly-added subsystems. The purpose is to have all other files untouched. This is a preparation for cgroup xattr support. v7: - checkpatch warnings fixed v6: - no changes v5: - no changes v4: - refactored cgroup_clear_directory() to not use cgroup_rm_file() - instead of going thru the list of files, get the file list using the subsystems - use 'subsys_mask' instead of {added,removed}_bits and made cgroup_populate_dir() to match the parameters with cgroup_clear_directory() v3: - refresh patches after recent refactoring Original-patch-by: Li Zefan <lizefan@huawei.com> Cc: Li Zefan <lizefan@huawei.com> Cc: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Cc: Hillf Danton <dhillf@gmail.com> Cc: Lennart Poettering <lpoetter@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Li Zefan <lizefan@huawei.com> Signed-off-by: Aristeu Rozanski <aris@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

Essentially the last thing we saw was the conflicting framebuffer message and that was all. So after much tracing with direct netconsole writes (printks under console_lock not so useful), I think I found the race. Thread A (driver load) Thread B (timer thread) unbind_con_driver -> | bind_con_driver -> | vc->vc_sw->con_deinit -> | fbcon_deinit -> | console_lock() | | | | fbcon_flashcursor timer fires | console_lock() <- blocked for A | | fbcon_del_cursor_timer -> del_timer_sync (BOOM) Of course because all of this is under the console lock, we never see anything, also since we also just unbound the active console guess what we never see anything. Hopefully this fixes the problem for anyone seeing vesafb->kms driver handoff. v1.1: add comment suggestion from Alan. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Dave Airlie <airlied@redhat.com>

Jim Schutt reported a problem that pointed at compaction contending heavily on locks. The workload is straight-forward and in his own words; The systems in question have 24 SAS drives spread across 3 HBAs, running 24 Ceph OSD instances, one per drive. FWIW these servers are dual-socket Intel 5675 Xeons w/48 GB memory. I've got ~160 Ceph Linux clients doing dd simultaneously to a Ceph file system backed by 12 of these servers.

Very broadly speaking this patch expands the concept. This patch introduces compact_checklock_irqsave() to check if a lock is contended or the process needs to be scheduled. If either condition is true then async compaction is aborted and the caller is informed. The page allocator will fail a THP allocation if compaction failed due to contention. This patch also introduces compact_trylock_irqsave() which will acquire the lock only if it is not contended and the process does not need to schedule.

Commit 7db8889a ("mm: have order > 0 compaction start off where it left") introduced a caching mechanism to reduce the amount work the free page scanner does in compaction. However, it has a problem. Consider two process simultaneously scanning free pages C Process A M S F |---------------------------------------| Process B M FS C is zone->compact_cached_free_pfn S is cc->start_pfree_pfn M is cc->migrate_pfn F is cc->free_pfn In this diagram, Process A has just reached its migrate scanner, wrapped around and updated compact_cached_free_pfn accordingly. Simultaneously, Process B finishes isolating in a block and updates compact_cached_free_pfn again to the location of its free scanner. Process A moves to "end_of_zone - one_pageblock" and runs this check if (cc->order > 0 && (!cc->wrapped || zone->compact_cached_free_pfn > cc->start_free_pfn)) pfn = min(pfn, zone->compact_cached_free_pfn); compact_cached_free_pfn is above where it started so the free scanner skips almost the entire space it should have scanned. When there are multiple processes compacting it can end in a situation where the entire zone is not being scanned at all. Further, it is possible for two processes to ping-pong update to compact_cached_free_pfn which is just random. Overall, the end result wrecks allocation success rates. There is not an obvious way around this problem without introducing new locking and state so this patch takes a different approach. First, it gets rid of the skip logic because it's not clear that it matters if two free scanners happen to be in the same block but with racing updates it's too easy for it to skip over blocks it should not. Second, it updates compact_cached_free_pfn in a more limited set of circumstances. If a scanner has wrapped, it updates compact_cached_free_pfn to the end of the zone. When a wrapped scanner isolates a page, it updates compact_cached_free_pfn to point to the highest pageblock it can isolate pages from. If a scanner has not wrapped when it has finished isolated pages it checks if compact_cached_free_pfn is pointing to the end of the zone. If so, the value is updated to point to the highest pageblock that pages were isolated from. This value will not be updated again until a free page scanner wraps and resets compact_cached_free_pfn. This is not optimal and it can still race but the compact_cached_free_pfn will be pointing to or very near a pageblock with free pages.

Make sure that there is no doorbell messages left behind due to disabled interrupts during inbound doorbell processing. The most common case for this bug is loss of rionet JOIN messages in systems with three or more rionet participants and MSI or MSI-X enabled. As result, requests for packet transfers may finish with "destination unreachable" error message. This patch is applicable to kernel versions starting from v3.2.

Correct the offset by subtracting 20 from tm_hour before taking the modulo 12. [ "Why 20?" I hear you ask. Or at least I did. Here's the reason why: RS5C348_BIT_PM is 32, and is - stupidly - included in the RS5C348_HOURS_MASK define. So it's really subtracting out that bit to get "hour+12". But then because it does things modulo 12, it needs to add the 12 in again afterwards anyway. This code is confused. It would be much clearer if RS5C348_HOURS_MASK just didn't include the RS5C348_BIT_PM bit at all, then it wouldn't need to do the silly subtract either. Whatever. It's all just math, the end result is the same. - Linus ] Reported-by: James Nute <newten82@gmail.com> Tested-by: James Nute <newten82@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Atsushi Nemoto <anemo@mba.ocn.ne.jp> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
