12 years agotracing: Use NUMA allocation for per-cpu ring buffer pages
Vaibhav Nagarnaik [Wed, 4 May 2011 00:56:42 +0000 (17:56 -0700)]
tracing: Use NUMA allocation for per-cpu ring buffer pages

The tracing ring buffer is a group of per-cpu ring buffers where
allocation and logging is done on a per-cpu basis. The events that are
generated on a particular CPU are logged in the corresponding buffer.
This is to provide wait-free writes between CPUs and good NUMA node
locality while accessing the ring buffer.

However, the allocation routines consider NUMA locality only for buffer
page metadata and not for the actual buffer page. This causes the pages
to be allocated on the NUMA node local to the CPU where the allocation
routine is running at the time.

This patch fixes the problem by using a NUMA node specific allocation
routine so that the pages are allocated from a NUMA node local to the
logging CPU.

I tested with the getuid_microbench from autotest. It is a simple binary
that calls getuid() in a loop and measures the average time for the
syscall to complete. The following command was used to test:
$ getuid_microbench 1000000

Compared the numbers found on kernel with and without this patch and
found that logging latency decreases by 30-50 ns/call.
tracing with non-NUMA allocation - 569 ns/call
tracing with NUMA allocation     - 512 ns/call

12 years agotracing: Schedule a delayed work to call wakeup()
Vaibhav Nagarnaik [Tue, 10 May 2011 20:27:21 +0000 (13:27 -0700)]
tracing: Schedule a delayed work to call wakeup()

In using syscall tracing by concurrent processes, the wakeup() that is
called in the event commit function causes contention on the spin lock
of the waitqueue. I enabled sys_enter_getuid and sys_exit_getuid
tracepoints, and by running getuid_microbench from autotest in parallel
I found that the contention causes exponential latency increase in the
tracing path.

The autotest binary getuid_microbench calls getuid() in a tight loop for
the given number of iterations and measures the average time required to
complete a single invocation of syscall.

The patch schedules a delayed work after 2 ms once an event commit calls
to wake up the trace wait_queue. This removes the delay caused by
contention on spin lock in wakeup() and amortizes the wakeup() calls
scheduled over the 2 ms period.

In the following example, the script enables the sys_enter_getuid and
sys_exit_getuid tracepoints and runs the getuid_microbench in parallel
with the given number of processes. The output clearly shows the latency
increase caused by contentions.

 - there might not be an existing task context, in which case

 - there might already be a context, not the current one, in
   which case we should de-schedule the old and install the new;

these cases were dealt with in the lost refresh, however there is one
further case that was found in testing:

 - there might already be a context, the current one, in which
   case we should still de-schedule, and should take care
   to re-install it (note that task_ctx_sched_out() clears

As rmk says:
 "Commit a197b59ae6e8 (mm: fail GFP_DMA allocations when ZONE_DMA is not

  The behaviour up until now has been to silently ignore that flag when
  CONFIG_ZONE_DMA is not enabled, and to allocate from the normal zone.
  However, as a result of the above commit, such allocations now fail
  which causes drivers to fail.  These are regressions compared to the
  previous kernel version."

Mike Travis and Mike Habeck reported an issue where iova allocation
would return a range that was larger than a device's dma mask.

https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/3/29/423

The dmar initialization code will reserve all PCI MMIO regions and copy
those reservations into a domain specific iova tree.  It is possible for
one of those regions to be above the dma mask of a device.  It is typical
to allocate iovas with a 32bit mask (despite device's dma mask possibly
being larger) and cache the result until it exhausts the lower 32bit
address space.  Freeing the iova range that is >= the last iova in the
lower 32bit range when there is still an iova above the 32bit range will
corrupt the cached iova by pointing it to a region that is above 32bit.
If that region is also larger than the device's dma mask, a subsequent
allocation will return an unusable iova and cause dma failure.

Simply don't cache an iova that is above the 32bit caching boundary.

intel-iommu: Enable super page (2MiB, 1GiB, etc.) support

There are no externally-visible changes with this. In the loop in the
internal __domain_mapping() function, we simply detect if we are mapping:
  - size >= 2MiB, and
  - virtual address aligned to 2MiB, and
  - physical address aligned to 2MiB, and
  - on hardware that supports superpages.

(and likewise for larger superpages).

We automatically use a superpage for such mappings. We never have to
worry about *breaking* superpages, since we trust that we will always
*unmap* the same range that was mapped. So all we need to do is ensure
that dma_pte_clear_range() will also cope with superpages.

Adjust pfn_to_dma_pte() to take a superpage 'level' as an argument, so
it can return a PTE at the appropriate level rather than always
extending the page tables all the way down to level 1. Again, this is
simplified by the fact that we should never encounter existing small
pages when we're creating a mapping; any old mapping that used the same
virtual range will have been entirely removed and its obsolete page
tables freed.

Provide an 'intel_iommu=sp_off' argument on the command line as a
chicken bit. Not that it should ever be required.

The original commit seen in the iommu-2.6.git was Youquan's
implementation (and completion) of my own half-baked code which I'd
typed into an email. Followed by half a dozen subsequent 'fixes'.

I've taken the unusual step of rewriting history and collapsing the
original commits in order to keep the main history simpler, and make
life easier for the people who are going to have to backport this to
older kernels. And also so I can give it a more coherent commit comment
which (hopefully) gives a better explanation of what's going on.

The original sequence of commits leading to identical code was:

AppArmor: fix oops in apparmor_setprocattr

When invalid parameters are passed to apparmor_setprocattr a NULL deref
oops occurs when it tries to record an audit message. This is because
it is passing NULL for the profile parameter for aa_audit. But aa_audit
now requires that the profile passed is not NULL.

The virtio balloon driver has a VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_MUST_TELL_HOST
feature bit.  Whenever the bit is set, the guest kernel must
always tell the host before we free pages back to the allocator.
Without this feature, we might free a page (and have another
user touch it) while the hypervisor is unprepared for it.

But, if the bit is _not_ set, we are under no obligation to
reverse the order; we're under no obligation to do _anything_.
As of now, qemu-kvm defines the bit, but doesn't set it.

This patch makes the "tell host first" logic the only case.  This
should make everybody happy, and reduce the amount of untested or
untestable code in the kernel.

This _also_ means that we don't have to preserve a pfn list

pnfs: layoutret_on_setattr

With the objects layout security model, we have object capabilities
that are associated with the layout and we anticipate that the server
will issue a cb_layoutrecall for any setattr that changes security
related attributes (user/group/mode/acl) or truncates the file.

Therefore, the layout is returned before issuing the setattr to avoid
the anticipated cb_layoutrecall.

pnfs-obj: osd raid engine read/write implementation

With the use of the in-kernel osd library. Implement read/write
of data from/to osd-objects according to information specified
in the objects-layout.

Support for stripping over mirrors with a received stripe_unit.
There are however a few constrains which are not supported:
 1. Stripe Unit must be a multiple of PAGE_SIZE
 2. stripe length (stripe_unit * number_of_stripes) can not be
    bigger then 32bit.

Also support raid-groups and partial-layout. Partial-layout is
when not all the groups are received on the line, addressing
only a partial range of the file.

TODO:
  Only raid0! raid 4/5/6 support will come at later stage

A none supported layout will send IO through the MDS
