2014-07-31x86/mm: Fix missed global TLB flush statDave Hansen
If we take the if (end == TLB_FLUSH_ALL || vmflag & VM_HUGETLB) { local_flush_tlb(); goto out; } path out of flush_tlb_mm_range(), we will have flushed the tlb, but not incremented NR_TLB_LOCAL_FLUSH_ALL. This unifies the way out of the function so that we always take a single path when doing a full tlb flush.

2014-07-31x86/mm: Rip out complicated, out-of-date, buggy TLB flushingDave Hansen
I think the flush_tlb_mm_range() code that tries to tune the flush sizes based on the CPU needs to get ripped out for several reasons: 1. It is obviously buggy. It uses mm->total_vm to judge the task's footprint in the TLB. It should certainly be using some measure of RSS, *NOT* ->total_vm since only resident memory can populate the TLB. 2. Haswell, and several other CPUs are missing from the intel_tlb_flushall_shift_set() function. Thus, it has been demonstrated to bitrot quickly in practice. 3. It is plain wrong in my vm: [ 0.037444] Last level iTLB entries: 4KB 0, 2MB 0, 4MB 0 [ 0.037444] Last level dTLB entries: 4KB 0, 2MB 0, 4MB 0 [ 0.037444] tlb_flushall_shift: 6 Which leads to it to never use invlpg. 4. The assumptions about TLB refill costs are wrong: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1337782555-8088-3-git-send-email-alex.shi@intel.com (more on this in later patches) 5. I can not reproduce the original data: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/5/17/59 I believe the sample times were too short. Running the benchmark in a loop yields times that vary quite a bit. Note that this leaves us with a static ceiling of 1 page. This is a conservative, dumb setting, and will be revised in a later patch. This also removes the code which attempts to predict whether we are flushing data or instructions. We expect instruction flushes to be relatively rare and not worth tuning for explicitly.

2014-07-31x86/mm: Clean up the TLB flushing codeDave Hansen
The if (cpumask_any_but(mm_cpumask(mm), smp_processor_id()) < nr_cpu_ids) line of code is not exactly the easiest to audit, especially when it ends up at two different indentation levels. This eliminates one of the the copy-n-paste versions. It also gives us a unified exit point for each path through this function. We need this in a minute for our tracepoint.

2014-06-11x86/smep: Be more informative when signalling an SMEP faultJiri Kosina
If pagefault triggers due to SMEP triggering, it can't be really easily distinguished from any other oops-causing pagefault, which might lead to quite some confusion when trying to understand the reason for the oops. Print an explanatory message in case the fault happened during instruction fetch for _PAGE_USER page which is present and executable on SMEP-enabled CPUs. This is consistent with what we are doing for NX already; in addition to immediately seeing from the oops what might be happening, it can even easily give a good indication to sysadmins who are carefully monitoring their kernel logs that someone might be trying to pwn them.

2014-06-07x86/boot: EFI_MIXED should not prohibit loading above 4GMatt Fleming
commit 7d453eee36ae ("x86/efi: Wire up CONFIG_EFI_MIXED") introduced a regression for the functionality to load kernels above 4G. The relevant (incorrect) reasoning behind this change can be seen in the commit message, "The xloadflags field in the bzImage header is also updated to reflect that the kernel supports both entry points by setting both of XLF_EFI_HANDOVER_32 and XLF_EFI_HANDOVER_64 when CONFIG_EFI_MIXED=y. XLF_CAN_BE_LOADED_ABOVE_4G is disabled so that the kernel text is guaranteed to be addressable with 32-bits." This is obviously bogus since 32-bit EFI loaders will never place the kernel above the 4G mark. So this restriction is entirely unnecessary. But things are worse than that - since we want to encourage people to always compile with CONFIG_EFI_MIXED=y so that their kernels work out of the box for both 32-bit and 64-bit firmware, commit 7d453eee36ae effectively disables XLF_CAN_BE_LOADED_ABOVE_4G completely. Remove the overzealous and superfluous restriction and restore the XLF_CAN_BE_LOADED_ABOVE_4G functionality. Cc: "H.

2014-06-05x86/smpboot: Initialize secondary CPU only if master CPU will wait for itIgor Mammedov
Hang is observed on virtual machines during CPU hotplug, especially in big guests with many CPUs. (It reproducible more often if host is over-committed). It happens because master CPU gives up waiting on secondary CPU and allows it to run wild. As result AP causes locking or crashing system. For example as described here: https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/3/6/257 If master CPU have sent STARTUP IPI successfully, and AP signalled to master CPU that it's ready to start initialization, make master CPU wait indefinitely till AP is onlined. To ensure that AP won't ever run wild, make it wait at early startup till master CPU confirms its intention to wait for AP. If AP doesn't respond in 10 seconds, the master CPU will timeout and cancel AP onlining.

Which is caused by the fact that generic_processor_info() allocates logical CPU id by calling: cpu = cpumask_next_zero(-1, cpu_present_mask); which returns id of previously failed to wake up CPU, since its bit is cleared by do_boot_cpu() and as result register_cpu() tries to register another CPU with the same id as already present but failed to be onlined CPU. Taking in account that AP will not do anything if master CPU failed to wake it up, there is no reason to mark that AP as not present and break next cpu hotplug attempts. As a side effect of not marking AP as not present, user would be allowed to online it again later. Also fix memory corruption in acpi_unmap_lsapic() if during CPU hotplug master CPU failed to wake up AP it set percpu x86_cpu_to_apicid to BAD_APICID=0xFFFF for AP. However following attempt to unplug that CPU will lead to out of bound write access to __apicid_to_node[] which is 32768 items long on x86_64 kernel. So with above fix of cpu_present_mask make sure that a present CPU has a valid APIC ID by not setting x86_cpu_to_apicid to BAD_APICID in do_boot_cpu() on failure and allow acpi_processor_remove()->acpi_unmap_lsapic() cleanly remove CPU.

Tracking dirty status on 2 level pages requires very ugly macros and taking into account how old the machines who can operate without PAE mode only are, lets drop soft dirty tracker from them for code simplicity (note I can't drop all the macros from 2 level pages by now since _PAGE_BIT_PROTNONE and _PAGE_BIT_FILE are still used even without tracker). Linus proposed to completely rip off softdirty support on x86-32 (even with PAE) and since for CRIU we're not planning to support native x86-32 mode, lets do that.

2014-06-04mm: disable zone_reclaim_mode by defaultMel Gorman
When it was introduced, zone_reclaim_mode made sense as NUMA distances punished and workloads were generally partitioned to fit into a NUMA node. NUMA machines are now common but few of the workloads are NUMA-aware and it's routine to see major performance degradation due to zone_reclaim_mode being enabled but relatively few can identify the problem. Those that require zone_reclaim_mode are likely to be able to detect when it needs to be enabled and tune appropriately so lets have a sensible default for the bulk of users. This patch (of 2): zone_reclaim_mode causes processes to prefer reclaiming memory from local node instead of spilling over to other nodes. This made sense initially when NUMA machines were almost exclusively HPC and the workload was partitioned into nodes. The NUMA penalties were sufficiently high to justify reclaiming the memory. On current machines and workloads it is often the case that zone_reclaim_mode destroys performance but not all users know how to detect this. Favour the common case and disable it by default. Users that are sophisticated enough to know they need zone_reclaim_mode will detect it.
