2010-07-05rbtree: Undo augmented trees performance damage and regressionPeter Zijlstra1-44/+72
Reimplement augmented RB-trees without sprinkling extra branches all over the RB-tree code (which lives in the scheduler hot path). This approach is 'borrowed' from Fabio's BFQ implementation and relies on traversing the rebalance path after the RB-tree-op to correct the heap property for insertion/removal and make up for the damage done by the tree rotations. For insertion the rebalance path is trivially that from the new node upwards to the root, for removal it is that from the deepest node in the path from the to be removed node that will still be around after the removal.

2010-06-07swiotlb: add swiotlb_tbl_map_single library functionFUJITA Tomonori1-8/+17
swiotlb_tbl_map_single() takes the dma address of iotlb instead of using swiotlb_virt_to_bus(). [v2: changed swiotlb_tlb to swiotlb_tbl] [v3: changed u64 to dma_addr_t] This patch: This is a set of patches that separate the address translation (virt_to_phys, virt_to_bus, etc) and allocation of the SWIOTLB buffer from the SWIOTLB library. The idea behind this set of patches is to make it possible to have separate mechanisms for translating virtual to physical or virtual to DMA addresses on platforms which need an SWIOTLB, and where physical != PCI bus address and also to allocate the core IOTLB memory outside SWIOTLB. One customers of this is the pv-ops project, which can switch between different modes of operation depending on the environment it is running in: bare-metal or virtualized (Xen for now). Another is the Wii DMA - used to implement the MEM2 DMA facility needed by its EHCI controller (for details: http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/5/18/303) On bare-metal SWIOTLB is used when there are no hardware IOMMU. In virtualized environment it used when PCI pass-through is enabled for the guest. The problems with PCI pass-through is that the guest's idea of PFN's is not the real thing. To fix that, there is translation layer for PFN->machine frame number and vice-versa. To bubble that up to the SWIOTLB layer there are two possible solutions. One solution has been to wholesale copy the SWIOTLB, stick it in arch/x86/xen/swiotlb.c and modify the virt_to_phys, phys_to_virt and others to use the Xen address translation functions. Unfortunately, since the kernel can run on bare-metal, there would be big code overlap with the real SWIOTLB. (git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jeremy/xen.git xen/dom0/swiotlb-new) Another approach, which this set of patches explores, is to abstract the address translation and address determination functions away from the SWIOTLB book-keeping functions. This way the core SWIOTLB library functions are present in one place, while the address related functions are in a separate library that can be loaded when running under non-bare-metal platform.

2010-05-27lib/random32: export pseudo-random number generator for modulesJoe Eykholt1-21/+17
This patch moves the definition of struct rnd_state and the inline __seed() function to linux/random.h. It renames the static __random32() function to prandom32() and exports it for use in modules. prandom32() is useful as a privately-seeded pseudo random number generator that can give the same result every time it is initialized. For FCoE FC-BB-6 VN2VN mode self-selected unique FC address generation, we need an pseudo-random number generator seeded with the 64-bit world-wide port name. A truly random generator or one seeded with randomness won't do because the same sequence of numbers should be generated each time we boot or the link comes up. A prandom32_seed() inline function is added to the header file. It is inlined not for speed, but so the function won't be expanded in the base kernel, but only in the module that uses it.

2010-05-27idr: fix backtrack logic in idr_remove_allImre Deak1-1/+4
Currently idr_remove_all will fail with a use after free error if idr::layers is bigger than 2, which on 32 bit systems corresponds to items more than 1024. This is due to stepping back too many levels during backtracking. For simplicity let's assume that IDR_BITS=1 -> we have 2 nodes at each level below the root node and each leaf node stores two IDs. (In reality for 32 bit systems IDR_BITS=5, with 32 nodes at each sub-root level and 32 IDs in each leaf node). The sequence of freeing the nodes at the moment is as follows: layer 1 -> a(7) 2 -> b(3) c(5) 3 -> d(1) e(2) f(4) g(6) Until step 4 things go fine, but then node c is freed, whereas node g should be freed first. Since node c contains the pointer to node g we'll have a use after free error at step 6. How many levels we step back after visiting the leaf nodes is currently determined by the msb of the id we are currently visiting: Step 1. node d with IDs 0,1 is freed, current ID is advanced to 2. msb of the current ID bit 1. This means we need to step back 1 level to node b and take the next sibling, node e. 2-3. node e with IDs 2,3 is freed, current ID is 4, msb is bit 2. This means we need to step back 2 levels to node a, freeing node b on the way. 4-5. node f with IDs 4,5 is freed, current ID is 6, msb is still bit 2. This means we again need to step back 2 levels to node a and free c on the way. 6. We should visit node g, but its pointer is not available as node c was freed. The fix changes how we determine the number of levels to step back. Instead of deducting this merely from the msb of the current ID, we should really check if advancing the ID causes an overflow to a bit position corresponding to a given layer. In the above example overflow from bit 0 to bit 1 should mean stepping back 1 level. Overflow from bit 1 to bit 2 should mean stepping back 2 levels and so on. The fix was tested with IDs up to 1 << 20, which corresponds to 4 layers on 32 bit systems.

2010-05-27cpusets: randomize node rotor used in cpuset_mem_spread_node()Jack Steiner1-1/+1
Some workloads that create a large number of small files tend to assign too many pages to node 0 (multi-node systems). Part of the reason is that the rotor (in cpuset_mem_spread_node()) used to assign nodes starts at node 0 for newly created tasks. This patch changes the rotor to be initialized to a random node number of the cpuset.

Reduce char linebuf[200] to the actual size required., which is 32 * 3 + 2 + 32 + 1, ie: linebuf[131]. Change examples to use bool true not int 1. Align multiline argument indentation to open parenthesis. Use temporary for ptr[j] so trigraph fits on single line. Convert printk ptr from %*p, (int)(2 * sizeof(void *)) to %p as %p uses the same calculation for size.
