2013-07-04Merge branch 'kconfig-diet' from Dave HansenLinus Torvalds1-515/+561
Merge Kconfig menu diet patches from Dave Hansen: "I think the "Kernel Hacking" menu has gotten a bit out of hand. It is over 120 lines long on my system with everything enabled and options are scattered around it haphazardly. http://sr71.net/~dave/linux/kconfig-horror.png Let's try to introduce some sanity. This set takes that 120 lines down to 55 and makes it vastly easier to find some things. It's a start. This set stands on its own, but there is plenty of room for follow-up patches. The arch-specific debug options still end up getting stuck in the top-level "kernel hacking" menu. OPTIMIZE_INLINING, for instance, could obviously go in to the "compiler options" menu, but the fact that it is defined in arch/ in a separate Kconfig file keeps it on its own for the moment. The Signed-off-by's in here look funky.

Original posting: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20121214184203.37E6C724@kernel.stglabs.ibm.com There are a *LOT* of memory debugging options. They are just scattered all over the "Kernel Hacking" menu. Sure, "memory debugging" is a very vague term and it's going to be hard to make absolute rules about what goes in here, but this has to be better than what we had before. This does, however, leave out the architecture-specific memory debugging options (like x86's DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX). There would need to be some substantial changes to move those in here. Kconfig can not easily mix arch-specific and generic options together: it really requires a file per-architecture, and I think having an arch/foo/Kconfig.debug-memory might be taking things a bit too far Signed-off-by: Dave Hansen <dave@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Original posting: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20121214184202.F54094D9@kernel.stglabs.ibm.com Several architectures have similar stack debugging config options. They all pretty much do the same thing, some with slightly differing help text. This patch changes the architectures to instead enable a Kconfig boolean, and then use that boolean in the generic Kconfig.debug to present the actual menu option.

2013-06-26mutex: Add w/w mutex slowpath debuggingDaniel Vetter1-0/+13
Injects EDEADLK conditions at pseudo-random interval, with exponential backoff up to UINT_MAX (to ensure that every lock operation still completes in a reasonable time). This way we can test the wound slowpath even for ww mutex users where contention is never expected, and the ww deadlock avoidance algorithm is only needed for correctness against malicious userspace. An example would be protecting kernel modesetting properties, which thanks to single-threaded X isn't really expected to contend, ever. I've looked into using the CONFIG_FAULT_INJECTION infrastructure, but decided against it for two reasons: - EDEADLK handling is mandatory for ww mutex users and should never affect the outcome of a syscall. This is in contrast to -ENOMEM injection. So fine configurability isn't required. - The fault injection framework only allows to set a simple probability for failure. Now the probability that a ww mutex acquire stage with N locks will never complete (due to too many injected EDEADLK backoffs) is zero. But the expected number of ww_mutex_lock operations for the completely uncontended case would be O(exp(N)). The per-acuiqire ctx exponential backoff solution choosen here only results in O(log N) overhead due to injection and so O(log N * N) lock operations. This way we can fail with high probability (and so have good test coverage even for fancy backoff and lock acquisition paths) without running into patalogical cases. Note that EDEADLK will only ever be injected when we managed to acquire the lock. This prevents any behaviour changes for users which rely on the EALREADY semantics.

2013-06-19X.509: do not emit any informational outputArnd Bergmann1-2/+0
When building a kernel using 'make -s', I expect to see an empty output, except for build warnings and errors. The build_OID_registry code always prints one line when run, which is not helpful to most people building the kernels, and which makes it harder to automatically check for build warnings. Let's just remove the one line output. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Cc: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Cc: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

2013-06-17percpu-refcount: use RCU-sched insted of normal RCUTejun Heo1-1/+1
percpu-refcount was incorrectly using preempt_disable/enable() for RCU critical sections against call_rcu(). 6a24474da8 ("percpu-refcount: consistently use plain (non-sched) RCU") fixed it by converting the preepmtion operations with rcu_read_[un]lock() citing that there isn't any advantage in using sched-RCU over using the usual one; however, rcu_read_[un]lock() for the preemptible RCU implementation - CONFIG_TREE_PREEMPT_RCU, chosen when CONFIG_PREEMPT - are slightly more expensive than preempt_disable/enable(). In a contrived microbench which repeats the followings, - percpu_ref_get() - copy 32 bytes of data into percpu buffer - percpu_put_get() - copy 32 bytes of data into percpu buffer rcu_read_[un]lock() used in percpu_ref_get/put() makes it go slower by about 15% when compared to using sched-RCU. As the RCU critical sections are extremely short, using sched-RCU shouldn't have any latency implications. Convert to RCU-sched.

2013-06-14percpu-refcount: implement percpu_tryget() along with ↵Tejun Heo1-6/+17
percpu_ref_kill_and_confirm() Implement percpu_tryget() which stops giving out references once the percpu_ref is visible as killed. Because the refcnt is per-cpu, different CPUs will start to see a refcnt as killed at different points in time and tryget() may continue to succeed on subset of cpus for a while after percpu_ref_kill() returns. For use cases where it's necessary to know when all CPUs start to see the refcnt as dead, percpu_ref_kill_and_confirm() is added. The new function takes an extra argument @confirm_kill which is invoked when the refcnt is guaranteed to be viewed as killed on all CPUs. While this isn't the prettiest interface, it doesn't force synchronous wait and is much safer than requiring the caller to do its own call_rcu(). v2: Patch description rephrased to emphasize that tryget() may continue to succeed on some CPUs after kill() returns as suggested by Kent. v3: Function comment in percpu_ref_kill_and_confirm() updated warning people to not depend on the implied RCU grace period from the confirm callback as it's an implementation detail.

2013-06-13percpu-refcount: implement percpu_ref_cancel_init()Tejun Heo1-0/+31
Normally, percpu_ref_init() initializes and percpu_ref_kill() initiates destruction which completes asynchronously. The asynchronous destruction can be problematic in init failure path where the caller wants to destroy half-constructed object - distinguishing half-constructed objects from the usual release method can be painful for complex objects. This patch implements percpu_ref_cancel_init() which synchronously destroys the percpu_ref without invoking release. To avoid unintentional misuses, the function requires the ref to have finished percpu_ref_init() but never used and triggers WARN otherwise. v2: Explain the weird name and usage restriction in the function comment.

2013-06-04percpu: implement generic percpu refcountingKent Overstreet2-1/+129
This implements a refcount with similar semantics to atomic_get()/atomic_dec_and_test() - but percpu. It also implements two stage shutdown, as we need it to tear down the percpu counts. Before dropping the initial refcount, you must call percpu_ref_kill(); this puts the refcount in "shutting down mode" and switches back to a single atomic refcount with the appropriate barriers (synchronize_rcu()). It's also legal to call percpu_ref_kill() multiple times - it only returns true once, so callers don't have to reimplement shutdown synchronization.

The umul_ppmm() macro for parisc uses the xmpyu assembler statement which does calculation via a floating point register. But usage of floating point registers inside the Linux kernel are not allowed and gcc will stop compilation due to the -mdisable-fpregs compiler option.

There is a race between klist_remove and klist_release. klist_remove uses a local var waiter saved on stack. When klist_release calls wake_up_process(waiter->process) to wake up the waiter, waiter might run immediately and reuse the stack. Then, klist_release calls list_del(&waiter->list) to change previous wait data and cause prior waiter thread corrupt. The patch fixes it against kernel 3.9.
