nommu platforms don't have very interesting swapper_pg_dir pointers and usually just #define them to NULL, meaning that we can't include them in the vmcoreinfo on the kexec crash path. This patch only saves the swapper_pg_dir if we have an MMU. Signed-off-by:

This was marked as obsolete for quite a while now.. Now it is time to remove it altogether. And while doing this, get rid of first_cpu() as well. Also, remove the redundant setting of cpu_online_mask in smp_prepare_cpus() because the generic code would have already set cpu 0 in cpu_online_mask. Reported-by:

Calculate a cpumask of CPUs with per-cpu pages in any zone and only send an IPI requesting CPUs to drain these pages to the buddy allocator if they actually have pages when asked to flush. This patch saves 85%+ of IPIs asking to drain per-cpu pages in case of severe memory pressure that leads to OOM since in these cases multiple, possibly concurrent, allocation requests end up in the direct reclaim code path so when the per-cpu pages end up reclaimed on first allocation failure for most of the proceeding allocation attempts until the memory pressure is off (possibly via the OOM killer) there are no per-cpu pages on most CPUs (and there can easily be hundreds of them). This also has the side effect of shortening the average latency of direct reclaim by 1 or more order of magnitude since waiting for all the CPUs to ACK the IPI takes a long time. Tested by running "hackbench 400" on a 8 CPU x86 VM and observing the difference between the number of direct reclaim attempts that end up in drain_all_pages() and those were more then 1/2 of the online CPU had any per-cpu page in them, using the vmstat counters introduced in the next patch in the series and using proc/interrupts. In the test sceanrio, this was seen to save around 3600 global IPIs after trigerring an OOM on a concurrent workload: $ cat /proc/vmstat | tail -n 2 pcp_global_drain 0 pcp_global_ipi_saved 0 $ cat /proc/interrupts | grep CAL CAL: 1 2 1 2 2 2 2 2 Function call interrupts $ hackbench 400 [OOM messages snipped] $ cat /proc/vmstat | tail -n 2 pcp_global_drain 3647 pcp_global_ipi_saved 3642 $ cat /proc/interrupts | grep CAL CAL: 6 13 6 3 3 3 1 2 7 Function call interrupts Please note that if the global drain is removed from the direct reclaim path as a patch from Mel Gorman currently suggests this should be replaced with an on_each_cpu_cond invocation.

In several code paths, such as when unmounting a file system (but not only) we send an IPI to ask each cpu to invalidate its local LRU BHs. For multi-cores systems that have many cpus that may not have any LRU BH because they are idle or because they have not performed any file system accesses since last invalidation (e.g. CPU crunching on high perfomance computing nodes that write results to shared memory or only using filesystems that do not use the bh layer.) This can lead to loss of performance each time someone switches the KVM (the virtual keyboard and screen type, not the hypervisor) if it has a USB storage stuck in. This patch attempts to only send an IPI to cpus that have LRU BH. Signed-off-by:

flush_all() is called for each kmem_cache_destroy(). So every cache being destroyed dynamically ends up sending an IPI to each CPU in the system, regardless if the cache has ever been used there. For example, if you close the Infinband ipath driver char device file, the close file ops calls kmem_cache_destroy(). So running some infiniband config tool on one a single CPU dedicated to system tasks might interrupt the rest of the 127 CPUs dedicated to some CPU intensive or latency sensitive task. I suspect there is a good chance that every line in the output of "git grep kmem_cache_destroy linux/ | grep '\->'" has a similar scenario. This patch attempts to rectify this issue by sending an IPI to flush the per cpu objects back to the free lists only to CPUs that seem to have such objects. The check which CPU to IPI is racy but we don't care since asking a CPU without per cpu objects to flush does no damage and as far as I can tell the flush_all by itself is racy against allocs on remote CPUs anyway, so if you required the flush_all to be determinstic, you had to arrange for locking regardless. Without this patch the following artificial test case: $ cd /sys/kernel/slab $ for DIR in *; do cat $DIR/alloc_calls > /dev/null; done produces 166 IPIs on an cpuset isolated CPU. With it it produces none. The code path of memory allocation failure for CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y config was tested using fault injection framework. Signed-off-by:

Add the on_each_cpu_cond() function that wraps on_each_cpu_mask() and calculates the cpumask of cpus to IPI by calling a function supplied as a parameter in order to determine whether to IPI each specific cpu. The function works around allocation failure of cpumask variable in CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y by itereating over cpus sending an IPI a time via smp_call_function_single(). The function is useful since it allows to seperate the specific code that decided in each case whether to IPI a specific cpu for a specific request from the common boilerplate code of handling creating the mask, handling failures etc. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: s/gfpflags/gfp_flags/] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: avoid double-evaluation of `info' (per Michal), parenthesise evaluation of `cond_func'] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: s/CPU/CPUs, use all 80 cols in comment] Signed-off-by:

Gilad Ben-Yossef authored
We have lots of infrastructure in place to partition multi-core systems such that we have a group of CPUs that are dedicated to specific task: cgroups, scheduler and interrupt affinity, and cpuisol= boot parameter. Still, kernel code will at times interrupt all CPUs in the system via IPIs for various needs. These IPIs are useful and cannot be avoided altogether, but in certain cases it is possible to interrupt only specific CPUs that have useful work to do and not the entire system. This patch set, inspired by discussions with Peter Zijlstra and Frederic Weisbecker when testing the nohz task patch set, is a first stab at trying to explore doing this by locating the places where such global IPI calls are being made and turning the global IPI into an IPI for a specific group of CPUs. The purpose of the patch set is to get feedback if this is the right way to go for dealing with this issue and indeed, if the issue is even worth dealing with at all. Based on the feedback from this patch set I plan to offer further patches that address similar issue in other code paths. This patch creates an on_each_cpu_mask() and on_each_cpu_cond() infrastructure API (the former derived from existing arch specific versions in Tile and Arm) and uses them to turn several global IPI invocation to per CPU group invocations. Core kernel: on_each_cpu_mask() calls a function on processors specified by cpumask, which may or may not include the local processor. You must not call this function with disabled interrupts or from a hardware interrupt handler or from a bottom half handler. arch/arm: Note that the generic version is a little different then the Arm one: 1. It has the mask as first parameter 2. It calls the function on the calling CPU with interrupts disabled, but this should be OK since the function is called on the other CPUs with interrupts disabled anyway. arch/tile: The API is the same as the tile private one, but the generic version also calls the function on the with interrupts disabled in UP case This is OK since the function is called on the other CPUs with interrupts disabled.

Most system calls taking flags first check that the flags passed in are valid, and that helps userspace to detect when new flags are supported. But swapon never did so: start checking now, to help if we ever want to support more swap_flags in future. It's difficult to get stray bits set in an int, and swapon is not widely used, so this is most unlikely to break any userspace; but we can just revert if it turns out to do so. Signed-off-by:

The size of coredump files is limited by RLIMIT_CORE, however, allocating large amounts of memory results in three negative consequences: - the coredumping process may be chosen for oom kill and quickly deplete all memory reserves in oom conditions preventing further progress from being made or tasks from exiting, - the coredumping process may cause other processes to be oom killed without fault of their own as the result of a SIGSEGV, for example, in the coredumping process, or - the coredumping process may result in a livelock while writing to the dump file if it needs memory to allocate while other threads are in the exit path waiting on the coredumper to complete. This is fixed by implying __GFP_NORETRY in the page allocator for coredumping processes when reclaim has failed so the allocations fail and the process continues to exit. Signed-off-by:

Hugh Dickins authored
Holepunching filesystems ext4 and xfs are using truncate_inode_pages_range but forgetting to unmap pages first (ocfs2 remembers). This is not really a bug, since races already require truncate_inode_page() to handle that case once the page is locked; but it can be very inefficient if the file being punched happens to be mapped into many vmas. Provide a drop-in replacement truncate_pagecache_range() which does the unmapping pass first, handling the awkward mismatch between arguments to truncate_inode_pages_range() and arguments to unmap_mapping_range(). Note that holepunching does not unmap privately COWed pages in the range: POSIX requires that we do so when truncating, but it's hard to justify, difficult to implement without an i_size cutoff, and no filesystem is attempting to implement it.

Pull "remoteproc/rpmsg: new subsystem" from Arnd Bergmann: "This new subsystem provides a common way to talk to secondary processors on an SoC, e.g. a DSP, GPU or service processor, using virtio as the transport. In the long run, it should replace a few dozen vendor specific ways to do the same thing, which all never made it into the upstream kernel.

Pull "ARM: board specific updates" from Arnd Bergmann/Olof Johansson: "These changes are all specific to one board only. We're trying to keep the number of board files low, but generally board level updates are ok on platforms that are working on moving towards DT based probing, which will eventually lead to removing them.
