2016-10-11mm: split gfp_mask and mapping flags into separate fieldsMichal Hocko
mapping->flags currently encodes two different things into a single flag. It contains sticky gfp_mask for page cache allocations and AS_ codes used to report errors/enospace and other states which are mapping specific. Condensing the two semantically unrelated things saves few bytes but it also complicates other things. For one thing the gfp flags space is reduced and in fact we are already running out of available bits. It can be assumed that more gfp flags will be necessary later on. To not introduce the address_space grow (at least on x86_64) we can stick it right after private_lock because we have a hole there. struct address_space { struct inode * host; /* 0 8 */ struct radix_tree_root page_tree; /* 8 16 */ spinlock_t tree_lock; /* 24 4 */ atomic_t i_mmap_writable; /* 28 4 */ struct rb_root i_mmap; /* 32 8 */ struct rw_semaphore i_mmap_rwsem; /* 40 40 */ /* --- cacheline 1 boundary (64 bytes) was 16 bytes ago --- */ long unsigned int nrpages; /* 80 8 */ long unsigned int nrexceptional; /* 88 8 */ long unsigned int writeback_index; /* 96 8 */ const struct address_space_operations * a_ops; /* 104 8 */ long unsigned int flags; /* 112 8 */ spinlock_t private_lock; /* 120 4 */ /* XXX 4 bytes hole, try to pack */ /* --- cacheline 2 boundary (128 bytes) --- */ struct list_head private_list; /* 128 16 */ void * private_data; /* 144 8 */ /* size: 152, cachelines: 3, members: 14 */ /* sum members: 148, holes: 1, sum holes: 4 */ /* last cacheline: 24 bytes */ }; Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20160912114852.GI14524@dhcp22.suse.cz Signed-off-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2016-10-11kthread: better support freezable kthread workersPetr Mladek
This patch allows to make kthread worker freezable via a new @flags parameter. It will allow to avoid an init work in some kthreads. It currently does not affect the function of kthread_worker_fn() but it might help to do some optimization or fixes eventually. I currently do not know about any other use for the @flags parameter but I believe that we will want more flags in the future. Finally, I hope that it will not cause confusion with @flags member in struct kthread. Well, I guess that we will want to rework the basic kthreads implementation once all kthreads are converted into kthread workers or workqueues. It is possible that we will merge the two structures.

2016-10-11kthread: allow to modify delayed kthread workPetr Mladek
There are situations when we need to modify the delay of a delayed kthread work. For example, when the work depends on an event and the initial delay means a timeout. Then we want to queue the work immediately when the event happens. This patch implements kthread_mod_delayed_work() as inspired workqueues. It cancels the timer, removes the work from any worker list and queues it again with the given timeout. A very special case is when the work is being canceled at the same time. It might happen because of the regular kthread_cancel_delayed_work_sync() or by another kthread_mod_delayed_work(). In this case, we do nothing and let the other operation win. This should not normally happen as the caller is supposed to synchronize these operations a reasonable way.

2016-10-11kthread: allow to cancel kthread workPetr Mladek
We are going to use kthread workers more widely and sometimes we will need to make sure that the work is neither pending nor running. This patch implements cancel_*_sync() operations as inspired by workqueues. Well, we are synchronized against the other operations via the worker lock, we use del_timer_sync() and a counter to count parallel cancel operations. Therefore the implementation might be easier. First, we check if a worker is assigned. If not, the work has newer been queued after it was initialized. Second, we take the worker lock. It must be the right one. The work must not be assigned to another worker unless it is initialized in between. Third, we try to cancel the timer when it exists. The timer is deleted synchronously to make sure that the timer call back is not running. We need to temporary release the worker->lock to avoid a possible deadlock with the callback. In the meantime, we set work->canceling counter to avoid any queuing. Fourth, we try to remove the work from a worker list. It might be the list of either normal or delayed works. Fifth, if the work is running, we call kthread_flush_work(). It might take an arbitrary time. We need to release the worker-lock again. In the meantime, we again block any queuing by the canceling counter. As already mentioned, the check for a pending kthread work is done under a lock. In compare with workqueues, we do not need to fight for a single PENDING bit to block other operations. Therefore we do not suffer from the thundering storm problem and all parallel canceling jobs might use kthread_flush_work(). Any queuing is blocked until the counter gets zero.
