When doing 1KB sequential writes to the same page, balance_dirty_pages_ratelimited_nr() should be called once instead of 4 times, the latter makes the dirtier tasks be throttled much too heavy. Fix it with proper de-accounting on clear_page_dirty_for_io(). CC: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Wu Fengguang <fengguang.wu@intel.com>

De-account the accumulative dirty counters on page redirty. Page redirties (very common in ext4) will introduce mismatch between counters (a) and (b) a) NR_DIRTIED, BDI_DIRTIED, tsk->nr_dirtied b) NR_WRITTEN, BDI_WRITTEN This will introduce systematic errors in balanced_rate and result in dirty page position errors (ie. the dirty pages are no longer balanced around the global/bdi setpoints).

When dd in 512bytes, generic_perform_write() calls balance_dirty_pages_ratelimited() 8 times for the same page, but obviously the page is only dirtied once. Fix it by accounting tsk->nr_dirtied and bdp_ratelimits at page dirty time.

It's a years long problem that a large number of short-lived dirtiers (eg. gcc instances in a fast kernel build) may starve long-run dirtiers (eg. dd) as well as pushing the dirty pages to the global hard limit. The solution is to charge the pages dirtied by the exited gcc to the other random dirtying tasks. It sounds not perfect, however should behave good enough in practice, seeing as that throttled tasks aren't actually running so those that are running are more likely to pick it up and get throttled, therefore promoting an equal spread.

Jan Kara authored
Current livelock avoidance code makes background work to include only inodes that were dirtied before background writeback has started. However background writeback can be running for a long time and thus excluding newly dirtied inodes can eventually exclude significant portion of dirty inodes making background writeback inefficient. Since background writeback avoids livelocking the flusher thread by yielding to any other work, there is no real reason why background work should not include all dirty inodes so change the logic in wb_writeback().

This adds a default setting for semaphores parameter, and enables semaphores by default on IVB. For now, as semaphores interaction with VTd causes random issues on SNB, we do not enable them by default. But they can still be enabled via the semaphores=1 kernel parameter. v2: enables semaphores on SNB when IO remapping is disabled, with base on Keith Packard patch.

RC6 should always work on IVB, and should work on SNB whenever IO remapping is disabled. RC6 never works on Ironlake. Make the default value for the parameter follow these guidelines.

This prevents an in-kernel division by zero which happens when we are asking for i915_chipset_val too quickly, or within a race condition between the power monitoring thread and userspace accesses via debugfs. The issue can be reproduced easily via the following command: while ``; do cat /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/i915_emon_status; done This is particularly dangerous because it can be triggered by a non-privileged user by just reading the debugfs entry.

This fixes an odd bug found on a Dell PowerEdge 1850/0RC130 (BIOS A05 01/09/2006) where all of the modules doing pci_set_dma_mask would fail with: ata_piix 0000:00:1f.1: enabling device (0005 -> 0007) ata_piix 0000:00:1f.1: can't derive routing for PCI INT A ata_piix 0000:00:1f.1: BMDMA: failed to set dma mask, falling back to PIO The issue was the Xen-SWIOTLB was allocated such as that the end of buffer was stradling a page (and also above 4GB). The fix was spotted by Kalev Leonid which was to piggyback on git commit e79f86b2 "swiotlb: Use page alignment for early buffer allocation" which: We could call free_bootmem_late() if swiotlb is not used, and it will shrink to page alignment. So alloc them with page alignment at first, to avoid lose two pages And doing that fixes the outstanding issue.
