Catch SRCU up to the other variants of RCU by making PROVE_RCU complain if either srcu_read_lock() or srcu_read_lock_held() are used from within RCU-idle mode.

We are currently able to detect uses of rcu_dereference_check() inside extended quiescent states (such as the RCU-free window in idle). But rcu_read_lock() and friends can be used without rcu_dereference(), so that the earlier commit checking for use of rcu_dereference() and friends while in RCU idle mode miss some error conditions. This commit therefore adds extended quiescent state checking to rcu_read_lock() and friends. Uses of RCU from within RCU-idle mode are totally ignored by RCU, hence the importance of these checks.

Inform the user if an RCU usage error is detected by lockdep while in an extended quiescent state (in this case, the RCU-free window in idle). This is accomplished by adding a line to the RCU lockdep splat indicating whether or not the splat occurred in extended quiescent state. Uses of RCU from within extended quiescent state mode are totally ignored by RCU, hence the importance of this diagnostic. Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Paul E.

Report that none of the rcu read lock maps are held while in an RCU extended quiescent state (the section between rcu_idle_enter() and rcu_idle_exit()). This helps detect any use of rcu_dereference() and friends from within the section in idle where RCU is not allowed. This way we can guarantee an extended quiescent window where the CPU can be put in dyntick idle mode or can simply aoid to be part of any global grace period completion while in the idle loop. Uses of RCU from such mode are totally ignored by RCU, hence the importance of these checks. Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Paul E.

Because rcu_is_cpu_idle() is to be used to check for extended quiescent states in RCU-preempt read-side critical sections, it cannot assume that preemption is disabled. And preemption must be disabled when accessing the dyntick-idle state, because otherwise the following sequence of events could occur: 1. Task A on CPU 1 enters rcu_is_cpu_idle() and picks up the pointer to CPU 1's per-CPU variables. 2. Task B preempts Task A and starts running on CPU 1. 3. Task A migrates to CPU 2. 4. Task B blocks, leaving CPU 1 idle. 5. Task A continues execution on CPU 2, accessing CPU 1's dyntick-idle information using the pointer fetched in step 1 above, and finds that CPU 1 is idle. 6. Task A therefore incorrectly concludes that it is executing in an extended quiescent state, possibly issuing a spurious splat. Therefore, this commit disables preemption within the rcu_is_cpu_idle() function. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: Josh Triplett <josh@joshtriplett.org>

Earlier versions of RCU used the scheduling-clock tick to detect idleness by checking for the idle task, but handled idleness differently for CONFIG_NO_HZ=y. But there are now a number of uses of RCU read-side critical sections in the idle task, for example, for tracing. A more fine-grained detection of idleness is therefore required. This commit presses the old dyntick-idle code into full-time service, so that rcu_idle_enter(), previously known as rcu_enter_nohz(), is always invoked at the beginning of an idle loop iteration. Similarly, rcu_idle_exit(), previously known as rcu_exit_nohz(), is always invoked at the end of an idle-loop iteration. This allows the idle task to use RCU everywhere except between consecutive rcu_idle_enter() and rcu_idle_exit() calls, in turn allowing architecture maintainers to specify exactly where in the idle loop that RCU may be used. Because some of the userspace upcall uses can result in what looks to RCU like half of an interrupt, it is not possible to expect that the irq_enter() and irq_exit() hooks will give exact counts. This patch therefore expands the ->dynticks_nesting counter to 64 bits and uses two separate bitfields to count process/idle transitions and interrupt entry/exit transitions. It is presumed that userspace upcalls do not happen in the idle loop or from usermode execution (though usermode might do a system call that results in an upcall). The counter is hard-reset on each process/idle transition, which avoids the interrupt entry/exit error from accumulating. Overflow is avoided by the 64-bitness of the ->dyntick_nesting counter. This commit also adds warnings if a non-idle task asks RCU to enter idle state (and these checks will need some adjustment before applying Frederic's OS-jitter patches (http://lkml.org/lkml/2011/10/7/246). In addition, validation of ->dynticks and ->dynticks_nesting is added. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paul.mckenney@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

When synchronize_sched_expedited() takes its second and subsequent snapshots of sync_sched_expedited_started, it subtracts 1. This means that the concurrent caller of synchronize_sched_expedited() that incremented to that value sees our successful completion, it will not be able to take advantage of it. This restriction is pointless, given that our full expedited grace period would have happened after the other guy started, and thus should be able to serve as a proxy for the other guy successfully executing try_stop_cpus(). This commit therefore removes the subtraction of 1. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: Josh Triplett <josh@joshtriplett.org>

Because rcu_read_unlock_special() samples rcu_preempted_readers_exp(rnp) after dropping rnp->lock, the following sequence of events is possible: 1. Task A exits its RCU read-side critical section, and removes itself from the ->blkd_tasks list, releases rnp->lock, and is then preempted. Task B remains on the ->blkd_tasks list, and blocks the current expedited grace period. 2. Task B exits from its RCU read-side critical section and removes itself from the ->blkd_tasks list. Because it is the last task blocking the current expedited grace period, it ends that expedited grace period. 3. Task A resumes, and samples rcu_preempted_readers_exp(rnp) which of course indicates that nothing is blocking the nonexistent expedited grace period. Task A is again preempted. 4. Some other CPU starts an expedited grace period. There are several tasks blocking this expedited grace period queued on the same rcu_node structure that Task A was using in step 1 above. 5. Task A examines its state and incorrectly concludes that it was the last task blocking the expedited grace period on the current rcu_node structure. It therefore reports completion up the rcu_node tree. 6. The expedited grace period can then incorrectly complete before the tasks blocked on this same rcu_node structure exit their RCU read-side critical sections. Arbitrarily bad things happen. This commit therefore takes a snapshot of rcu_preempted_readers_exp(rnp) prior to dropping the lock, so that only the last task thinks that it is the last task, thus avoiding the failure scenario laid out above.

Since commit a25cac51 ("proc: Consider NO_HZ when printing idle and iowait times") we are reporting idle/io_wait time also while a CPU is tickless. We rely on get_{idle,iowait}_time functions to retrieve proper data. These functions, however, use usecs_to_cputime to translate micro seconds time to cputime64_t. This is just an alias to usecs_to_jiffies which reduces the data type from u64 to unsigned int and also checks whether the given parameter overflows jiffies_to_usecs(MAX_JIFFY_OFFSET) and returns MAX_JIFFY_OFFSET in that case. When we overflow depends on CONFIG_HZ but especially for CONFIG_HZ_300 it is quite low (1431649781) so we are getting MAX_JIFFY_OFFSET for >3000s! until we overflow unsigned int. Just for reference CONFIG_HZ_100 has an overflow window around 20s, CONFIG_HZ_250 ~8s and CONFIG_HZ_1000 ~2s. This results in a bug when people saw [h]top going mad reporting 100% CPU usage even though there was basically no CPU load. The reason was simply that /proc/stat stopped reporting idle/io_wait changes (and reported MAX_JIFFY_OFFSET) and so the only change happening was for user system time. Let's use nsecs_to_jiffies64 instead which doesn't reduce the precision to 32b type and it is much more appropriate for cumulative time values (unlike usecs_to_jiffies which intended for timeout calculations).

Commit f5252e00 ("mm: avoid null pointer access in vm_struct via /proc/vmallocinfo") adds newly allocated vm_structs to the vmlist after it is fully initialised. Unfortunately, it did not check that __vmalloc_area_node() successfully populated the area. In the event of allocation failure, the vmalloc area is freed but the pointer to freed memory is inserted into the vmlist leading to a a crash later in get_vmalloc_info(). This patch adds a check for ____vmalloc_area_node() failure within __vmalloc_node_range. It does not use "goto fail" as in the previous error path as a warning was already displayed by __vmalloc_area_node() before it called vfree in its failure path.

With the 3.2-rc kernel, IOMMU 2M pages in KVM works. But when I tried to use IOMMU 1GB pages in KVM, I encountered an oops and the 1GB page failed to be used. The root cause is that 1GB page allocation calls gup_huge_pud() while 2M page calls gup_huge_pmd. If compound pages are used and the page is a tail page, gup_huge_pmd() increases _mapcount to record tail page are mapped while gup_huge_pud does not do that. So when the mapped page is relesed, it will result in kernel oops because the page is not marked mapped. This patch add tail process for compound page in 1GB huge page which keeps the same process as 2M page. Reproduce like: 1. Add grub boot option: hugepagesz=1G hugepages=8 2. mount -t hugetlbfs -o pagesize=1G hugetlbfs /dev/hugepages 3. qemu-kvm -m 2048 -hda os-kvm.img -cpu kvm64 -smp 4 -mem-path /dev/hugepages -net none -device pci-assign,host=07:00.1 kernel BUG at mm/swap.c:114! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP Call Trace: put_page+0x15/0x37 kvm_release_pfn_clean+0x31/0x36 kvm_iommu_put_pages+0x94/0xb1 kvm_iommu_unmap_memslots+0x80/0xb6 kvm_assign_device+0xba/0x117 kvm_vm_ioctl_assigned_device+0x301/0xa47 kvm_vm_ioctl+0x36c/0x3a2 do_vfs_ioctl+0x49e/0x4e4 sys_ioctl+0x5a/0x7c system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b RIP put_compound_page+0xd4/0x168 Signed-off-by: Youquan Song <youquan.song@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@redhat.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

More players joined to memory cgroup developments and Johannes' great work changed internal design of memory cgroup dramatically. And he will do more works. Michal Hokko did many bug fixes and know memory cgroup very well. Daisuke Nishimura helped us very much but he seems busy now. Thanks to his works.

khugepaged can sometimes cause suspend to fail, requiring that the user retry the suspend operation. Use wait_event_freezable_timeout() instead of schedule_timeout_interruptible() to avoid missing freezer wakeups. A try_to_freeze() would have been needed in the khugepaged_alloc_hugepage tight loop too in case of the allocation failing repeatedly, and wait_event_freezable_timeout will provide it too. khugepaged would still freeze just fine by trying again the next minute but it's better if it freezes immediately.
