2012-04-30rcu: Implement per-domain single-threaded call_srcu() state machineLai Jiangshan1-1/+36
This commit implements an SRCU state machine in support of call_srcu(). The state machine is preemptible, light-weight, and single-threaded, minimizing synchronization overhead. In particular, there is no longer any need for synchronize_srcu() to be guarded by a mutex. Expedited processing is handled, at least in the absence of concurrent grace-period operations on that same srcu_struct structure, by having the synchronize_srcu_expedited() thread take on the role of the workqueue thread for one iteration. There is a reasonable probability that a given SRCU callback will be invoked on the same CPU that registered it, however, there is no guarantee. Concurrent SRCU grace-period primitives can cause callbacks to be executed elsewhere, even in absence of CPU-hotplug operations. Callbacks execute in process context, but under the influence of local_bh_disable(), so it is illegal to sleep in an SRCU callback function.

2012-04-30rcu: Remove unused srcu_barrier()Lai Jiangshan1-6/+0
The old srcu_barrier() macro is now unused. This commit removes it so that it may be used for the SRCU flavor of rcu_barrier(), which will in turn be needed to allow the upcoming call_srcu() to be used from within modules.

2012-04-30rcu: Implement a variant of Peter's SRCU algorithmLai Jiangshan1-6/+1
This commit implements a variant of Peter's algorithm, which may be found at https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/2/1/119. o Make the checking lock-free to enable parallel checking. Parallel checking is required when (1) the original checking task is preempted for a long time, (2) sychronize_srcu_expedited() starts during an ongoing SRCU grace period, or (3) we wish to avoid acquiring a lock. o Since the checking is lock-free, we avoid a mutex in state machine for call_srcu(). o Remove the SRCU_REF_MASK and remove the coupling with the flipping. This might allow us to remove the preempt_disable() in future versions, though such removal will need great care because it rescinds the one-old-reader-per-CPU guarantee. o Remove a smp_mb(), simplify the comments and make the smp_mb() pairs more intuitive.

2012-04-30rcu: Increment upper bit only for srcu_read_lock()Lai Jiangshan1-1/+1
The purpose of the upper bit of SRCU's per-CPU counters is to guarantee that no reasonable series of srcu_read_lock() and srcu_read_unlock() operations can return the value of the counter to its original value. This guarantee is require only after the index has been switched to the other set of counters, so at most one srcu_read_lock() can affect a given CPU's counter. The number of srcu_read_unlock() operations on a given counter is limited to the number of tasks in the system, which given the Linux kernel's current structure is limited to far less than 2^30 on 32-bit systems and far less than 2^62 on 64-bit systems. (Something about a limited number of bytes in the kernel's address space.) Therefore, if srcu_read_lock() increments the upper bits, then srcu_read_unlock() need not do so. In this case, an srcu_read_lock() and an srcu_read_unlock() will flip the lower bit of the upper field of the counter. An unreasonably large additional number of srcu_read_unlock() operations would be required to return the counter to its initial value, thus preserving the guarantee. This commit takes this approach, which further allows it to shrink the size of the upper field to one bit, making the number of srcu_read_unlock() operations required to return the counter to its initial value even more unreasonable than before.

2012-04-30rcu: Direct algorithmic SRCU implementationPaul E. McKenney1-2/+8
The current implementation of synchronize_srcu_expedited() can cause severe OS jitter due to its use of synchronize_sched(), which in turn invokes try_stop_cpus(), which causes each CPU to be sent an IPI. This can result in severe performance degradation for real-time workloads and especially for short-interation-length HPC workloads. Furthermore, because only one instance of try_stop_cpus() can be making forward progress at a given time, only one instance of synchronize_srcu_expedited() can make forward progress at a time, even if they are all operating on distinct srcu_struct structures. This commit, inspired by an earlier implementation by Peter Zijlstra (https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/1/31/211) and by further offline discussions, takes a strictly algorithmic bits-in-memory approach. This has the disadvantage of requiring one explicit memory-barrier instruction in each of srcu_read_lock() and srcu_read_unlock(), but on the other hand completely dispenses with OS jitter and furthermore allows SRCU to be used freely by CPUs that RCU believes to be idle or offline. The update-side implementation handles the single read-side memory barrier by rechecking the per-CPU counters after summing them and by running through the update-side state machine twice. This implementation has passed moderate rcutorture testing on both x86 and Power. Also updated to use this_cpu_ptr() instead of per_cpu_ptr(), as suggested by Peter Zijlstra.

2012-04-30staging:iio: Streamline API function namingLars-Peter Clausen2-10/+10
Currently we use two different naming schemes in the IIO API, iio_verb_object and iio_object_verb. E.g iio_device_register and iio_allocate_device. This patches renames instances of the later to the former. The patch also renames allocate to alloc as this seems to be the preferred form throughout the kernel. In particular the following renames are performed by the patch: iio_put_device -> iio_device_put iio_allocate_device -> iio_device_alloc iio_free_device -> iio_device_free iio_get_trigger -> iio_trigger_get iio_put_trigger -> iio_trigger_put iio_allocate_trigger -> iio_trigger_alloc iio_free_trigger -> iio_trigger_free The conversion was done with the following coccinelle patch with manual fixes to comments and documentation. <smpl> @@ @@ -iio_put_device +iio_device_put @@ @@ -iio_allocate_device +iio_device_alloc @@ @@ -iio_free_device +iio_device_free @@ @@ -iio_get_trigger +iio_trigger_get @@ @@ -iio_put_trigger +iio_trigger_put @@ @@ -iio_allocate_trigger +iio_trigger_alloc @@ @@ -iio_free_trigger +iio_trigger_free </smpl> Signed-off-by: Lars-Peter Clausen <lars@metafoo.de> Acked-by: Jonathan Cameron <jic23@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

2012-04-30pipes: add a "packetized pipe" mode for writingLinus Torvalds1-0/+1
The actual internal pipe implementation is already really about individual packets (called "pipe buffers"), and this simply exposes that as a special packetized mode. When we are in the packetized mode (marked by O_DIRECT as suggested by Alan Cox), a write() on a pipe will not merge the new data with previous writes, so each write will get a pipe buffer of its own. The pipe buffer is then marked with the PIPE_BUF_FLAG_PACKET flag, which in turn will tell the reader side to break the read at that boundary (and throw away any partial packet contents that do not fit in the read buffer). End result: as long as you do writes less than PIPE_BUF in size (so that the pipe doesn't have to split them up), you can now treat the pipe as a packet interface, where each read() system call will read one packet at a time. You can just use a sufficiently big read buffer (PIPE_BUF is sufficient, since bigger than that doesn't guarantee atomicity anyway), and the return value of the read() will naturally give you the size of the packet. NOTE! We do not support zero-sized packets, and zero-sized reads and writes to a pipe continue to be no-ops. Also note that big packets will currently be split at write time, but that the size at which that happens is not really specified (except that it's bigger than PIPE_BUF). Currently that limit is the system page size, but we might want to explicitly support bigger packets some day. The main user for this is going to be the autofs packet interface, allowing us to stop having to care so deeply about exact packet sizes (which have had bugs with 32/64-bit compatibility modes). But user space can create packetized pipes with "pipe2(fd, O_DIRECT)", which will fail with an EINVAL on kernels that do not support this interface.

2012-04-29fb_defio: add first_io callbackHeiko Stübner1-0/+1
With this optional callback the driver is notified when the first page is entered into the pagelist and a new deferred_io call is scheduled. A possible use-case for this is runtime-pm. In the first_io call pm_runtime_get() could be called, which starts an asynchronous runtime_resume of the device. In the deferred_io callback a call to pm_runtime_barrier() makes the sure, the device is resumed by then and a pm_runtime_put() may put the device back to sleep. Also, some SoCs may use the runtime-pm system to determine if they are able to enter deeper idle states. Therefore it is necessary to keep the use-count from the first written page until the conclusion of the screen update, to prevent the system from going to sleep before completing the pending update. Two users of defio were using kmalloc to allocate the structure. These allocations are changed to kzalloc, to prevent uninitialised .first_io members in those drivers.

Add a interface pinctrl_provide_dummies for platform to indicate whether it needs use pinctrl dummy state. ChangeLog v3->v4: * remove dummy gpio support in pinctrl subsystem. Let gpio driver decide whether it wants to use pinctrl gpio mux function. ChangeLog v2->v3: * Also changed the missed pinctrl gpio APIs in v1. ChangeLog v1->v2: * Based on sascha's suggestion, drop using kconfig since it will hide pinctrl errors on all other boards. See: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/18/282 It seemed both Linus and Stephen agreed with this way, so i'm ok with it too. * Add dummy gpio support. pinctrl gpio in the same situation as state. * Patch name changed.

This moves the VME core, VME board drivers, and VME bridge drivers out of the drivers/staging/vme/ area to drivers/vme/. The VME device drivers have not moved out yet due to some API questions they are still working through, that should happen soon, hopefully.

2012-04-26tcp repair: Fix unaligned access when repairing options (v2)Pavel Emelyanov1-0/+5
Don't pick __u8/__u16 values directly from raw pointers, but instead use an array of structures of code:value pairs. This is OK, since the buffer we take options from is not an skb memory, but a user-to-kernel one. For those options which don't require any value now, require this to be zero (for potential future extension of this API). v2: Changed tcp_repair_opt to use two __u32-s as spotted by David Laight.

2012-04-26userns: Rework the user_namespace adding uid/gid mapping supportEric W. Biederman2-7/+47
- Convert the old uid mapping functions into compatibility wrappers - Add a uid/gid mapping layer from user space uid and gids to kernel internal uids and gids that is extent based for simplicty and speed. * Working with number space after mapping uids/gids into their kernel internal version adds only mapping complexity over what we have today, leaving the kernel code easy to understand and test. - Add proc files /proc/self/uid_map /proc/self/gid_map These files display the mapping and allow a mapping to be added if a mapping does not exist. - Allow entering the user namespace without a uid or gid mapping. Since we are starting with an existing user our uids and gids still have global mappings so are still valid and useful they just don't have local mappings. The requirement for things to work are global uid and gid so it is odd but perfectly fine not to have a local uid and gid mapping. Not requiring global uid and gid mappings greatly simplifies the logic of setting up the uid and gid mappings by allowing the mappings to be set after the namespace is created which makes the slight weirdness worth it. - Make the mappings in the initial user namespace to the global uid/gid space explicit. Today it is an identity mapping but in the future we may want to twist this for debugging, similar to what we do with jiffies. - Document the memory ordering requirements of setting the uid and gid mappings. We only allow the mappings to be set once and there are no pointers involved so the requirments are trivial but a little atypical. Performance: In this scheme for the permission checks the performance is expected to stay the same as the actuall machine instructions should remain the same. The worst case I could think of is ls -l on a large directory where all of the stat results need to be translated with from kuids and kgids to uids and gids. So I benchmarked that case on my laptop with a dual core hyperthread Intel i5-2520M cpu with 3M of cpu cache. My benchmark consisted of going to single user mode where nothing else was running. On an ext4 filesystem opening 1,000,000 files and looping through all of the files 1000 times and calling fstat on the individuals files. This was to ensure I was benchmarking stat times where the inodes were in the kernels cache, but the inode values were not in the processors cache. My results: v3.4-rc1: ~= 156ns (unmodified v3.4-rc1 with user namespace support disabled) v3.4-rc1-userns-: ~= 155ns (v3.4-rc1 with my user namespace patches and user namespace support disabled) v3.4-rc1-userns+: ~= 164ns (v3.4-rc1 with my user namespace patches and user namespace support enabled) All of the configurations ran in roughly 120ns when I performed tests that ran in the cpu cache. So in summary the performance impact is: 1ns improvement in the worst case with user namespace support compiled out. 8ns aka 5% slowdown in the worst case with user namespace support compiled in.

2012-04-26userns: Simplify the user_namespace by making userns->creator a kuid.Eric W. Biederman1-2/+2
- Transform userns->creator from a user_struct reference to a simple kuid_t, kgid_t pair. In cap_capable this allows the check to see if we are the creator of a namespace to become the classic suser style euid permission check. This allows us to remove the need for a struct cred in the mapping functions and still be able to dispaly the user namespace creators uid and gid as 0. - Remove the now unnecessary delayed_work in free_user_ns. All that is left for free_user_ns to do is to call kmem_cache_free and put_user_ns. Those functions can be called in any context so call them directly from free_user_ns removing the need for delayed work. Acked-by: Serge Hallyn <serge.hallyn@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: Eric W.
