13 years agovmstat: User per cpu atomics to avoid interrupt disable / enable

vmstat: User per cpu atomics to avoid interrupt disable / enable

Currently the operations to increment vm counters must disable interrupts
in order to not mess up their housekeeping of counters.

So use this_cpu_cmpxchg() to avoid the overhead. Since we can no longer
count on preremption being disabled we still have some minor issues.
The fetching of the counter thresholds is racy.
A threshold from another cpu may be applied if we happen to be
rescheduled on another cpu.  However, the following vmstat operation
will then bring the counter again under the threshold limit.

The operations for __xxx_zone_state are not changed since the caller
has taken care of the synchronization needs (and therefore the cycle
count is even less than the optimized version for the irq disable case
provided here).

The optimization using this_cpu_cmpxchg will only be used if the arch
supports efficient this_cpu_ops (must have CONFIG_CMPXCHG_LOCAL set!)

The use of this_cpu_cmpxchg reduces the cycle count for the counter
operations by %80 (inc_zone_page_state goes from 170 cycles to 32).

percpucounter: Optimize __percpu_counter_add a bit through the use of this_cpu() options.

The this_cpu_* options can be used to optimize __percpu_counter_add a bit. Avoids
some address arithmetic and saves 12 bytes.

MIPS: LD/SD o32 macro GAS fix update

I am about to commit:

http://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2010-10/msg00033.html

that fixes a problem with the LD/SD macro currently implemented by GAS for
the o32 ABI in an inconsistent way.  This is best illustrated with a
simple program, which I'm copying here from the message above for easier
reference:

$ cat ld.s
ld $5,32767($4)
ld $5,32768($4)

This gets assebled into the following output:

$ mips-linux-as -32 -mips3 -o ld.o ld.s
$ mips-linux-objdump -d ld.o

ld.o:     file format elf32-tradbigmips

  10: 8c268004  lw a2,-32764(at)
...

Oops!

 The GAS fix makes the macro behave in a consistent way and pairs of LW/SW
instructions to be output as appropriate regardless of the size of the
offset associated with the address used.  The machine instruction is still
available, but to reach it macros have to be disabled first.  This has a
side effect of requiring the use of a machine-addressable memory operand.

 As some platforms require 64-bit operations for accesses to some I/O
registers LD/SD instructions are used in a couple of places in Linux
regardless of the ABI selected.  Here's a fix for some pieces of code
affected I've been able to track down.  The fix should be backwards
compatible with all supported binutils releases in existence and can be
used as a reference for any other places or off-tree code.  The use of the
"R" constraint guarantees a machine-addressable operand.

contains the mac address in text from like 00:11:22:33:44:55. We have to
parse it before adding it into macaddr.

nvram_parse_macaddr will be merged into asm/mach-bcm47xx/nvram.h through

COMPARE is written.

increments during the calculation of "cnt += delta", it is possible
that CP0 COMPARE will be written with the current value of CP0 COUNT.

lguest: populate initial_page_table

Two x86 patches broke lguest:
1) v2.6.35-492-g72d7c3b, which changed x86 to use the memblock allocator.

In lguest, the host places linear page tables at the top of mem, which
used to be enough to get us up to the swapper_pg_dir page tables.  With
the first patch, the direct mapping tables used that memory:

Before: kernel direct mapping tables up to 4000000 @ 7000-1a000
After: kernel direct mapping tables up to 4000000 @ 3fed000-4000000

I initially fixed this by lying about the amount of memory we had, so
the kernel wouldn't blatt the lguest boot pagetables (yuk!), but then...

2) v2.6.36-rc8-54-gb40827f, which made x86 boot use initial_page_table.

This was initialized in a part of head_32.S which isn't executed by
lguest; it is then copied into swapper_pg_dir.  So we have to initialize
it; and anyway we switch to it before we blatt the old tables, so that
fixes the previous damage as well.

For the moment, I cut & pasted the code into lguest's boot code, but
next merge window I will merge them.

lguest is dumb and drops *all* the pagetables for set_pte (which is
only used for kernel mapping manipulation, so it's OK without highmem).

But it's used a lot in boot, too.  As a guest optimization, we
suppressed this flushing until the first page switch.  Now we have
initial_page_table, that happens much earlier, so extend the heuristic
to wait until we switch to something other than the swapper_pg_dir or
initial_page_table.

As measured on my laptop under kvm, this dropped the time-to-mount-root

and leading to filesystem corruption.

The patch doesn't queue gc-inodes for log writer if they are reused
through the vfs inode cache.  Here, gc-inode is the inode which
buffers blocks to be relocated on GC.  That patch queues gc-inodes in
nilfs_init_gcinode() function, but this function is not called when

overrode without being moved to new logs.

13 years agoInput: define separate EVIOCGKEYCODE_V2/EVIOCSKEYCODE_V2
Dmitry Torokhov [Wed, 15 Dec 2010 07:53:21 +0000 (23:53 -0800)]
Input: define separate EVIOCGKEYCODE_V2/EVIOCSKEYCODE_V2

The desire to keep old names for the EVIOCGKEYCODE/EVIOCSKEYCODE while
extending them to support large scancodes was a mistake. While we tried
to keep ABI intact (and we succeeded in doing that, programs compiled
on older kernels will work on newer ones) there is still a problem with
recompiling existing software with newer kernel headers.

New kernel headers will supply updated ioctl numbers and kernel will
expect that userspace will use struct input_keymap_entry to set and
retrieve keymap data. But since the names of ioctls are still the same
userspace will happily compile even if not adjusted to make use of the
new structure and will start miraculously fail in the field.

To avoid this issue let's revert EVIOCGKEYCODE/EVIOCSKEYCODE definitions
and add EVIOCGKEYCODE_V2/EVIOCSKEYCODE_V2 so that userspace can explicitly
select the style of ioctls it wants to employ.

This makes sense, because Thumb-2 code can't execute on plain
ARMv6 processors.

This will avoid accidentally configuring a broken kernel where the
config otherwise would allow multiple architecture versions to
coexist in the same kernel.

Not adding !CPU_V5 etc., because the chance of anyone trying to
put v5 and v7 in the same kernel is low, and I'm not aware of
any mach which can do this.  These could be added later if it
matters.

Note that the rules may need to be refined if support for the
ARM1156J(F)-S processor is later added to the kernel, since this
processor supports the rare ARMv6T2 extensions, which add support
