2010-03-12dma-mapping: dma-mapping.h: add dma_set_coherent_maskFUJITA Tomonori
dma_set_coherent_mask corresponds to pci_set_consistent_dma_mask. This is necessary to move to the generic device model DMA API from the PCI bus specific API in the long term. dma_set_coherent_mask works in the exact same way that pci_set_consistent_dma_mask does. So this patch also changes pci_set_consistent_dma_mask to call dma_set_coherent_mask.

We'll move to this new generic API from the PCI specific API in the long term. As include/asm-generic/pci-dma-compat.h does, the pci_unmap API simply calls the new generic API for some time.

2010-03-12pci-dma: add include/linux/pci-dma.hFUJITA Tomonori
This patch adds include/linux/pci-dma.h that defines the pci_unmap state API: DECLARE_PCI_UNMAP_ADDR(ADDR_NAME) DECLARE_PCI_UNMAP_LEN(LEN_NAME) pci_unmap_addr(PTR, ADDR_NAME) pci_unmap_addr_set(PTR, ADDR_NAME, VAL) pci_unmap_len(PTR, LEN_NAME) pci_unmap_len_set(PTR, LEN_NAME, VAL) This enables us to remove lots of the duplication in architecture implementations since there are only two ways to define the API. If architectures define CONFIG_NEED_DMA_MAP_STATE, they get the real definition of pci_unmap state API. If not, they get the noop definition. In the long term, it's better to replace the API with the generic device model API such as DECLARE_DMA_UNMAP_ADDR. We can map the API to the generic one (like dma-mapping-compat.h does). This patch also makes the migration process easier. We can remove this file after the migration. It might be simpler to add the API to include/linux/pci.h but looks it's already too large. We'll remove pci-dma.h after finishing moving to the generic device model. So I put the API to a separate file.

2010-03-12ptrace: move user_enable_single_step & co prototypes to linux/ptrace.hChristoph Hellwig
While in theory user_enable_single_step/user_disable_single_step/ user_enable_blockstep could also be provided as an inline or macro there's no good reason to do so, and having the prototype in one places keeps code size and confusion down. Roland said: The original thought there was that user_enable_single_step() et al might well be only an instruction or three on a sane machine (as if we have any of those!), and since there is only one call site inlining would be beneficial. But I agree that there is no strong reason to care about inlining it. As to the arch changes, there is only one thought I'd add to the record. It was always my thinking that for an arch where PTRACE_SINGLESTEP does text-modifying breakpoint insertion, user_enable_single_step() should not be provided. That is, arch_has_single_step()=>true means that there is an arch facility with "pure" semantics that does not have any unexpected side effects. Inserting a breakpoint might do very unexpected strange things in multi-threaded situations. Aside from that, it is a peculiar side effect that user_{enable,disable}_single_step() should cause COW de-sharing of text pages and so forth. For PTRACE_SINGLESTEP, all these peculiarities are the status quo ante for that arch, so having arch_ptrace() itself do those is one thing. But for building other things in the future, it is nicer to have a uniform "pure" semantics that arch-independent code can expect. OTOH, all such arch issues are really up to the arch maintainer. As of today, there is nothing but ptrace using user_enable_single_step() et al so it's a distinction without a practical difference. If/when there are other facilities that use user_enable_single_step() and might care, the affected arch's can revisit the question when someone cares about the quality of the arch support for said new facility.

2010-03-12memcg: fix oom kill behaviorKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki
In current page-fault code, handle_mm_fault() -> ... -> mem_cgroup_charge() -> map page or handle error. -> check return code. If page fault's return code is VM_FAULT_OOM, page_fault_out_of_memory() is called. But if it's caused by memcg, OOM should have been already invoked. Then, I added a patch: a636b327f731143ccc544b966cfd8de6cb6d72c6. That patch records last_oom_jiffies for memcg's sub-hierarchy and prevents page_fault_out_of_memory from being invoked in near future. But Nishimura-san reported that check by jiffies is not enough when the system is terribly heavy. This patch changes memcg's oom logic as. * If memcg causes OOM-kill, continue to retry. * remove jiffies check which is used now. * add memcg-oom-lock which works like perzone oom lock. * If current is killed(as a process), bypass charge. Something more sophisticated can be added but this pactch does fundamental things. TODO: - add oom notifier - add permemcg disable-oom-kill flag and freezer at oom. - more chances for wake up oom waiter (when changing memory limit etc..)

Output of time(1) on building kernel on tmpfs: Root cgroup before changes: make -j2 506.37 user 60.93s system 193% cpu 4:52.77 total Non-root cgroup before changes: make -j2 507.14 user 62.66s system 193% cpu 4:54.74 total Root cgroup after changes (0 thresholds): make -j2 507.13 user 62.20s system 193% cpu 4:53.55 total Non-root cgroup after changes (0 thresholds): make -j2 507.70 user 64.20s system 193% cpu 4:55.70 total Root cgroup after changes (1 thresholds, never crossed): make -j2 506.97 user 62.20s system 193% cpu 4:53.90 total Non-root cgroup after changes (1 thresholds, never crossed): make -j2 507.55 user 64.08s system 193% cpu 4:55.63 total This patch: Introduce the write-only file "cgroup.event_control" in every cgroup. To register new notification handler you need: - create an eventfd; - open a control file to be monitored. Callbacks register_event() and unregister_event() must be defined for the control file; - write "<event_fd> <control_fd> <args>" to cgroup.event_control. Interpretation of args is defined by control file implementation; eventfd will be woken up by control file implementation or when the cgroup is removed. To unregister notification handler just close eventfd. If you need notification functionality for a control file you have to implement callbacks register_event() and unregister_event() in the struct cftype.

2010-03-12memcg: move charges of anonymous swapDaisuke Nishimura
This patch is another core part of this move-charge-at-task-migration feature. It enables moving charges of anonymous swaps. To move the charge of swap, we need to exchange swap_cgroup's record. In current implementation, swap_cgroup's record is protected by: - page lock: if the entry is on swap cache. - swap_lock: if the entry is not on swap cache. This works well in usual swap-in/out activity. But this behavior make the feature of moving swap charge check many conditions to exchange swap_cgroup's record safely. So I changed modification of swap_cgroup's recored(swap_cgroup_record()) to use xchg, and define a new function to cmpxchg swap_cgroup's record. This patch also enables moving charge of non pte_present but not uncharged swap caches, which can be exist on swap-out path, by getting the target pages via find_get_page() as do_mincore() does.

Provides support for unloading modular subsystems. This patch adds a new function cgroup_unload_subsys which is to be used for removing a loaded subsystem during module deletion. Reference counting of the subsystems' modules is moved from once (at load time) to once per attached hierarchy (in parse_cgroupfs_options and rebind_subsystems) (i.e., 0 or 1).

2010-03-12cgroups: subsystem module loading interfaceBen Blum
Add interface between cgroups subsystem management and module loading This patch implements rudimentary module-loading support for cgroups - namely, a cgroup_load_subsys (similar to cgroup_init_subsys) for use as a module initcall, and a struct module pointer in struct cgroup_subsys. Several functions that might be wanted by modules have had EXPORT_SYMBOL added to them, but it's unclear exactly which functions want it and which won't.

2010-03-12cgroups: revamp subsys arrayBen Blum
This patch series provides the ability for cgroup subsystems to be compiled as modules both within and outside the kernel tree. This is mainly useful for classifiers and subsystems that hook into components that are already modules. cls_cgroup and blkio-cgroup serve as the example use cases for this feature. It provides an interface cgroup_load_subsys() and cgroup_unload_subsys() which modular subsystems can use to register and depart during runtime. The net_cls classifier subsystem serves as the example for a subsystem which can be converted into a module using these changes. Patch #1 sets up the subsys[] array so its contents can be dynamic as modules appear and (eventually) disappear. Iterations over the array are modified to handle when subsystems are absent, and the dynamic section of the array is protected by cgroup_mutex. Patch #2 implements an interface for modules to load subsystems, called cgroup_load_subsys, similar to cgroup_init_subsys, and adds a module pointer in struct cgroup_subsys. Patch #3 adds a mechanism for unloading modular subsystems, which includes a more advanced rework of the rudimentary reference counting introduced in patch 2. Patch #4 modifies the net_cls subsystem, which already had some module declarations, to be configurable as a module, which also serves as a simple proof-of-concept. Part of implementing patches 2 and 4 involved updating css pointers in each css_set when the module appears or leaves. In doing this, it was discovered that css_sets always remain linked to the dummy cgroup, regardless of whether or not any subsystems are actually bound to it (i.e., not mounted on an actual hierarchy). The subsystem loading and unloading code therefore should keep in mind the special cases where the added subsystem is the only one in the dummy cgroup (and therefore all css_sets need to be linked back into it) and where the removed subsys was the only one in the dummy cgroup (and therefore all css_sets should be unlinked from it) - however, as all css_sets always stay attached to the dummy cgroup anyway, these cases are ignored. Any fix that addresses this issue should also make sure these cases are addressed in the subsystem loading and unloading code. This patch: Make subsys[] able to be dynamically populated to support modular subsystems This patch reworks the way the subsys[] array is used so that subsystems can register themselves after boot time, and enables the internals of cgroups to be able to handle when subsystems are not present or may appear/disappear.

2010-03-12cgroup: introduce coalesce css_get() and css_put()Daisuke Nishimura
Current css_get() and css_put() increment/decrement css->refcnt one by one. This patch add a new function __css_get(), which takes "count" as a arg and increment the css->refcnt by "count". And this patch also add a new arg("count") to __css_put() and change the function to decrement the css->refcnt by "count". These coalesce version of __css_get()/__css_put() will be used to improve performance of memcg's moving charge feature later, where instead of calling css_get()/css_put() repeatedly, these new functions will be used. No change is needed for current users of css_get()/css_put().

2010-03-12Add generic sys_ipc wrapperChristoph Hellwig
Add a generic implementation of the ipc demultiplexer syscall. Except for s390 and sparc64 all implementations of the sys_ipc are nearly identical. There are slight differences in the types of the parameters, where mips and powerpc as the only 64-bit architectures with sys_ipc use unsigned long for the "third" argument as it gets casted to a pointer later, while it traditionally is an "int" like most other paramters. frv goes even further and uses unsigned long for all parameters execept for "ptr" which is a pointer type everywhere. The change from int to unsigned long for "third" and back to "int" for the others on frv should be fine due to the in-register calling conventions for syscalls (we already had a similar issue with the generic sys_ptrace), but I'd prefer to have the arch maintainers looks over this in details. Except for that h8300, m68k and m68knommu lack an impplementation of the semtimedop sub call which this patch adds, and various architectures have gets used - at least on i386 it seems superflous as the compat code on x86-64 and ia64 doesn't even bother to implement it.
