2007-10-30[TCP]: Saner thash_entries default with much memory.Jean Delvare
On systems with a very large amount of memory, the heuristics in alloc_large_system_hash() result in a very large TCP established hash table: 16 millions of entries for a 128 GB ia64 system. This makes reading from /proc/net/tcp pretty slow (well over a second) and as a result netstat is slow on these machines. I know that /proc/net/tcp is deprecated in favor of tcp_diag, however at the moment netstat only knows of the former. I am skeptical that such a large TCP established hash is often needed. Just because a system has a lot of memory doesn't imply that it will have several millions of concurrent TCP connections. Thus I believe that we should put an arbitrary high limit to the size of the TCP established hash by default. Users who really need a bigger hash can always use the thash_entries boot parameter to get more. I propose 2 millions of entries as the arbitrary high limit. This makes /proc/net/tcp reasonably fast on the system in question (0.2 s) while being still large enough for me to be confident that network performance won't suffer. This is just one way to limit the hash size, there are others; I am not familiar enough with the TCP code to decide which is best. Thus, I would welcome the proposals of alternatives. [ 2 million is still too large, thus I've modified the limit in the change to be '512 * 1024'. -DaveM ] Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <jdelvare@suse.de> Signed-off-by: David S.

2007-10-29[IPVS]: use proper timeout instead of fixed valueAndy Gospodarek
Instead of using the default timeout of 3 minutes, this uses the timeout specific to the protocol used for the connection. The 3 minute timeout seems somewhat arbitrary (though I know it is used other places in the ipvs code) and when failing over it would be much nicer to use one of the configured timeout values.

2007-10-29Revert "x86_64: allocate sparsemem memmap above 4G"Linus Torvalds
This reverts commit 2e1c49db4c640b35df13889b86b9d62215ade4b6. First off, testing in Fedora has shown it to cause boot failures, bisected down by Martin Ebourne, and reported by Dave Jobes. So the commit will likely be reverted in the 2.6.23 stable kernels. Secondly, in the 2.6.24 model, x86-64 has now grown support for SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP, which disables the relevant code anyway, so while the bug is not visible any more, it's become invisible due to the code just being irrelevant and no longer enabled on the only architecture that this ever affected.

2007-10-29[MIPS] MT: Fix bug in multithreaded kernels.Ralf Baechle
When GDB writes a breakpoint into address area of inferior process the kernel needs to invalidate the modified memory in the inferior which is done by calling flush_cache_page which in turns calls r4k_flush_cache_page and local_r4k_flush_cache_page for VSMP or SMTC kernel via r4k_on_each_cpu(). As the VSMP and SMTC SMP kernels for 34K are running on a single shared caches it is possible to get away without interprocessor function calls. This optimization is implemented in r4k_on_each_cpu, so local_r4k_flush_cache_page is only ever called on the local CPU. This is where the following code in local_r4k_flush_cache_page() strikes: /* * If ownes no valid ASID yet, cannot possibly have gotten * this page into the cache. */ if (cpu_context(smp_processor_id(), mm) == 0) return; On VSMP and SMTC had a function of cpu_context() for each CPU(TC). So in case another CPU than the CPU executing local_r4k_cache_flush_page has not accessed the mm but one of the other CPUs has there may be data to be flushed in the cache yet local_r4k_cache_flush_page will falsely return leaving the I-cache inconsistent for the breakpoint. While the issue was discovered with GDB it also exists in local_r4k_flush_cache_range() and local_r4k_flush_cache(). Fixed by introducing a new function has_valid_asid which on MT kernels returns true if a mm is active on any processor in the system. This is relativly expensive since for memory acccesses in that loop cache misses have to be assumed but it seems the most viable solution for 2.6.23 and older -stable kernels.
