2011-07-12Documentation/Changes: remove some really obsolete textLinus Torvalds1-25/+18
That file harkens back to the days of the big 2.4 -> 2.6 version jump, and was based even then on older versions. Some of it is just obsolete, and Jesper Juhl points out that it talks about kernel versions 2.6 and should be updated to 3.0. Remove some obsolete text, and re-phrase some other to not be 2.6-specific. Reported-by: Jesper Juhl <jj@chaosbits.net> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2011-07-11PM: Reintroduce dropped call to check_wakeup_irqsColin Cross1-0/+8
Patch 2e711c04dbbf7a7732a3f7073b1fc285d12b369d (PM: Remove sysdev suspend, resume and shutdown operations) deleted sysdev_suspend(), which was being relied on to call check_wakeup_irqs() in suspend. If check_wakeup_irqs() is not called, wake interrupts that are pending when suspend is entered may be lost. It also breaks IRQCHIP_MASK_ON_SUSPEND, which is handled in check_wakeup_irqs(). This patch adds a call to check_wakeup_irqs() in syscore_suspend(), similar to what was deleted in sysdev_suspend(). Signed-off-by: Colin Cross <ccross@android.com> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2011-07-09memcg: fix reclaimable lru check in memcgKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki1-31/+76
Now, in mem_cgroup_hierarchical_reclaim(), mem_cgroup_local_usage() is used for checking whether the memcg contains reclaimable pages or not. If no pages in it, the routine skips it. But, mem_cgroup_local_usage() contains Unevictable pages and cannot handle "noswap" condition correctly. This doesn't work on a swapless system. This patch adds test_mem_cgroup_reclaimable() and replaces mem_cgroup_local_usage(). test_mem_cgroup_reclaimable() see LRU counter and returns correct answer to the caller. And this new function has "noswap" argument and can see only FILE LRU if necessary.

2011-07-09mm: vmscan: only read new_classzone_idx from pgdat when reclaiming successfullyMel Gorman1-13/+21
During allocator-intensive workloads, kswapd will be woken frequently causing free memory to oscillate between the high and min watermark. This is expected behaviour. Unfortunately, if the highest zone is small, a problem occurs. When balance_pgdat() returns, it may be at a lower classzone_idx than it started because the highest zone was unreclaimable. Before checking if it should go to sleep though, it checks pgdat->classzone_idx which when there is no other activity will be MAX_NR_ZONES-1. It interprets this as it has been woken up while reclaiming, skips scheduling and reclaims again. As there is no useful reclaim work to do, it enters into a loop of shrinking slab consuming loads of CPU until the highest zone becomes reclaimable for a long period of time. There are two problems here. 1) If the returned classzone or order is lower, it'll continue reclaiming without scheduling. 2) if the highest zone was marked unreclaimable but balance_pgdat() returns immediately at DEF_PRIORITY, the new lower classzone is not communicated back to kswapd() for sleeping. This patch does two things that are related. If the end_zone is unreclaimable, this information is communicated back. Second, if the classzone or order was reduced due to failing to reclaim, new information is not read from pgdat and instead an attempt is made to go to sleep. Due to this, it is also necessary that pgdat->classzone_idx be initialised each time to pgdat->nr_zones - 1 to avoid re-reads being interpreted as wakeups.

2011-07-09mm: vmscan: evaluate the watermarks against the correct classzoneMel Gorman1-1/+1
When deciding if kswapd is sleeping prematurely, the classzone is taken into account but this is different to what balance_pgdat() and the allocator are doing. Specifically, the DMA zone will be checked based on the classzone used when waking kswapd which could be for a GFP_KERNEL or GFP_HIGHMEM request. The lowmem reserve limit kicks in, the watermark is not met and kswapd thinks it's sleeping prematurely keeping kswapd awake in error.

2011-07-09mm: vmscan: do not apply pressure to slab if we are not applying pressure to ↵Mel Gorman1-10/+13
zone During allocator-intensive workloads, kswapd will be woken frequently causing free memory to oscillate between the high and min watermark. This is expected behaviour. When kswapd applies pressure to zones during node balancing, it checks if the zone is above a high+balance_gap threshold. If it is, it does not apply pressure but it unconditionally shrinks slab on a global basis which is excessive. In the event kswapd is being kept awake due to a high small unreclaimable zone, it skips zone shrinking but still calls shrink_slab(). Once pressure has been applied, the check for zone being unreclaimable is being made before the check is made if all_unreclaimable should be set. This miss of unreclaimable can cause has_under_min_watermark_zone to be set due to an unreclaimable zone preventing kswapd backing off on congestion_wait().

2011-07-09mm: vmscan: correct check for kswapd sleeping in sleeping_prematurelyMel Gorman1-1/+1
During allocator-intensive workloads, kswapd will be woken frequently causing free memory to oscillate between the high and min watermark. This is expected behaviour. Unfortunately, if the highest zone is small, a problem occurs. This seems to happen most with recent sandybridge laptops but it's probably a co-incidence as some of these laptops just happen to have a small Normal zone. The reproduction case is almost always during copying large files that kswapd pegs at 100% CPU until the file is deleted or cache is dropped. The problem is mostly down to sleeping_prematurely() keeping kswapd awake when the highest zone is small and unreclaimable and compounded by the fact we shrink slabs even when not shrinking zones causing a lot of time to be spent in shrinkers and a lot of memory to be reclaimed. Patch 1 corrects sleeping_prematurely to check the zones matching the classzone_idx instead of all zones. Patch 2 avoids shrinking slab when we are not shrinking a zone. Patch 3 notes that sleeping_prematurely is checking lower zones against a high classzone which is not what allocators or balance_pgdat() is doing leading to an artifical belief that kswapd should be still awake. Patch 4 notes that when balance_pgdat() gives up on a high zone that the decision is not communicated to sleeping_prematurely() This problem affects 2.6.38.8 for certain and is expected to affect 2.6.39 and 3.0-rc4 as well. If accepted, they need to go to -stable to be picked up by distros and this series is against 3.0-rc4. I've cc'd people that reported similar problems recently to see if they still suffer from the problem and if this fixes it. This patch: correct the check for kswapd sleeping in sleeping_prematurely() During allocator-intensive workloads, kswapd will be woken frequently causing free memory to oscillate between the high and min watermark. This is expected behaviour. A problem occurs if the highest zone is small. balance_pgdat() only considers unreclaimable zones when priority is DEF_PRIORITY but sleeping_prematurely considers all zones. It's possible for this sequence to occur 1. kswapd wakes up and enters balance_pgdat() 2. At DEF_PRIORITY, marks highest zone unreclaimable 3. At DEF_PRIORITY-1, ignores highest zone setting end_zone 4. At DEF_PRIORITY-1, calls shrink_slab freeing memory from highest zone, clearing all_unreclaimable. Highest zone is still unbalanced 5. kswapd returns and calls sleeping_prematurely 6. sleeping_prematurely looks at *all* zones, not just the ones being considered by balance_pgdat. The highest small zone has all_unreclaimable cleared but the zone is not balanced. all_zones_ok is false so kswapd stays awake This patch corrects the behaviour of sleeping_prematurely to check the zones balance_pgdat() checked.

2011-07-09PCI: conditional resource-reallocation through kernel parameter pci=reallocRam Pai4-0/+21
Multiple attempts to dynamically reallocate pci resources have unfortunately lead to regressions. Though we continue to fix the regressions and fine tune the dynamic-reallocation behavior, we have not reached a acceptable state yet. This patch provides a interim solution. It disables dynamic reallocation by default, but adds the ability to enable it through pci=realloc kernel command line parameter.
