2011-10-31fs/pipe.c: add ->statfs callback for pipefsPavel Emelyanov
Currently a statfs on a pipe's /proc/<pid>/fd/ link returns -ENOSYS. Wire pipfs up so that the statfs succeeds. This is required by checkpoint-restart in the userspace to make it possible to distinguish pipes from fifos. When we dump information about task's open files we use the /proc/pid/fd directoy's symlinks and the fact that opening any of them gives us exactly the same dentry->inode pair as the original process has. Now if a task we're dumping has opened pipe and fifo we need to detect this and act accordingly. Knowing that an fd with type S_ISFIFO resides on a pipefs is the most precise way.

2011-10-31fs/buffer.c: add device information for error output in __find_get_block_slow()Tao Ma
On the ext4 mailing list[1], we got some report about errors in __find_get_block_slow(), but the information is very limited. If the device information is given, we can know the name of the sick volume. Futhermore, we can get the corresponding status of that block(group, inode block etc) by analyzing the disk layout.

2011-10-31mm: distinguish between mlocked and pinned pagesChristoph Lameter
Some kernel components pin user space memory (infiniband and perf) (by increasing the page count) and account that memory as "mlocked". The difference between mlocking and pinning is: A. mlocked pages are marked with PG_mlocked and are exempt from swapping. Page migration may move them around though. They are kept on a special LRU list. B. Pinned pages cannot be moved because something needs to directly access physical memory. They may not be on any LRU list. I recently saw an mlockalled process where mm->locked_vm became bigger than the virtual size of the process (!) because some memory was accounted for twice: Once when the page was mlocked and once when the Infiniband layer increased the refcount because it needt to pin the RDMA memory. This patch introduces a separate counter for pinned pages and accounts them seperately.

2011-10-31oom: remove oom_disable_countDavid Rientjes
This removes mm->oom_disable_count entirely since it's unnecessary and currently buggy. The counter was intended to be per-process but it's currently decremented in the exit path for each thread that exits, causing it to underflow. The count was originally intended to prevent oom killing threads that share memory with threads that cannot be killed since it doesn't lead to future memory freeing. The counter could be fixed to represent all threads sharing the same mm, but it's better to remove the count since: - it is possible that the OOM_DISABLE thread sharing memory with the victim is waiting on that thread to exit and will actually cause future memory freeing, and - there is no guarantee that a thread is disabled from oom killing just because another thread sharing its mm is oom disabled.

2011-10-31Cross Memory AttachChristopher Yeoh
The basic idea behind cross memory attach is to allow MPI programs doing intra-node communication to do a single copy of the message rather than a double copy of the message via shared memory. The following patch attempts to achieve this by allowing a destination process, given an address and size from a source process, to copy memory directly from the source process into its own address space via a system call. There is also a symmetrical ability to copy from the current process's address space into a destination process's address space. - Use of /proc/pid/mem has been considered, but there are issues with using it: - Does not allow for specifying iovecs for both src and dest, assuming preadv or pwritev was implemented either the area read from or written to would need to be contiguous. - Currently mem_read allows only processes who are currently ptrace'ing the target and are still able to ptrace the target to read from the target. This check could possibly be moved to the open call, but its not clear exactly what race this restriction is stopping (reason appears to have been lost) - Having to send the fd of /proc/self/mem via SCM_RIGHTS on unix domain socket is a bit ugly from a userspace point of view, especially when you may have hundreds if not (eventually) thousands of processes that all need to do this with each other - Doesn't allow for some future use of the interface we would like to consider adding in the future (see below) - Interestingly reading from /proc/pid/mem currently actually involves two copies! (But this could be fixed pretty easily) As mentioned previously use of vmsplice instead was considered, but has problems. Since you need the reader and writer working co-operatively if the pipe is not drained then you block. Which requires some wrapping to do non blocking on the send side or polling on the receive. In all to all communication it requires ordering otherwise you can deadlock. And in the example of many MPI tasks writing to one MPI task vmsplice serialises the copying. There are some cases of MPI collectives where even a single copy interface does not get us the performance gain we could. For example in an MPI_Reduce rather than copy the data from the source we would like to instead use it directly in a mathops (say the reduce is doing a sum) as this would save us doing a copy. We don't need to keep a copy of the data from the source. I haven't implemented this, but I think this interface could in the future do all this through the use of the flags - eg could specify the math operation and type and the kernel rather than just copying the data would apply the specified operation between the source and destination and store it in the destination. Although we don't have a "second user" of the interface (though I've had some nibbles from people who may be interested in using it for intra process messaging which is not MPI). This interface is something which hardware vendors are already doing for their custom drivers to implement fast local communication. And so in addition to this being useful for OpenMPI it would mean the driver maintainers don't have to fix things up when the mm changes. There was some discussion about how much faster a true zero copy would go. Here's a link back to the email with some testing I did on that: http://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=130105930902915&w=2 There is a basic man page for the proposed interface here: http://ozlabs.org/~cyeoh/cma/process_vm_readv.txt This has been implemented for x86 and powerpc, other architecture should mainly (I think) just need to add syscall numbers for the process_vm_readv and process_vm_writev. There are 32 bit compatibility versions for 64-bit kernels. For arch maintainers there are some simple tests to be able to quickly verify that the syscalls are working correctly here: http://ozlabs.org/~cyeoh/cma/cma-test-20110718.tgz Signed-off-by: Chris Yeoh <yeohc@au1.ibm.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: "H.

2011-10-28vfs: do (nearly) lockless generic_file_llseekAndi Kleen
The i_mutex lock use of generic _file_llseek hurts. Independent processes accessing the same file synchronize over a single lock, even though they have no need for synchronization at all. Under high utilization this can cause llseek to scale very poorly on larger systems. This patch does some rethinking of the llseek locking model: First the 64bit f_pos is not necessarily atomic without locks on 32bit systems. This can already cause races with read() today. This was discussed on linux-kernel in the past and deemed acceptable. The patch does not change that. Let's look at the different seek variants: SEEK_SET: Doesn't really need any locking. If there's a race one writer wins, the other loses. For 32bit the non atomic update races against read() stay the same. Without a lock they can also happen against write() now. The read() race was deemed acceptable in past discussions, and I think if it's ok for read it's ok for write too. => Don't need a lock. SEEK_END: This behaves like SEEK_SET plus it reads the maximum size too. Reading the maximum size would have the 32bit atomic problem. But luckily we already have a way to read the maximum size without locking (i_size_read), so we can just use that instead. Without i_mutex there is no synchronization with write() anymore, however since the write() update is atomic on 64bit it just behaves like another racy SEEK_SET. On non atomic 32bit it's the same as SEEK_SET. => Don't need a lock, but need to use i_size_read() SEEK_CUR: This has a read-modify-write race window on the same file. One could argue that any application doing unsynchronized seeks on the same file is already broken. But for the sake of not adding a regression here I'm using the file->f_lock to synchronize this. Using this lock is much better than the inode mutex because it doesn't synchronize between processes. => So still need a lock, but can use a f_lock. This patch implements this new scheme in generic_file_llseek. I dropped generic_file_llseek_unlocked and changed all callers.

2011-10-28direct-io: inline the complete submission pathAndi Kleen
Add inlines to all the submission path functions. While this increases code size it also gives gcc a lot of optimization opportunities in this critical hotpath. In particular -- together with some other changes -- this allows gcc to get rid of the unnecessary clearing of sdio at the beginning and optimize the messy parameter passing. Any non inlining of a function which takes a sdio parameter would break this optimization because they cannot be done if the address of a structure is taken. Note that benefits are only seen with CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING and CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE both set to off. This gives about 2.2% improvement on a large database benchmark with a high IOPS rate.

This large, but largely mechanic, patch moves all fields in struct dio that are only used in the submission path into a separate on stack data structure. This has the advantage that the memory is very likely cache hot, which is not guaranteed for memory fresh out of kmalloc. This also gives gcc more optimization potential because it can easier determine that there are no external aliases for these variables. The sdio initialization is a initialization now instead of memset.

This was found by inspection while tracking a similar bug in compat_statfs64, that has been fixed in mainline since decemeber. - This fixes a bug where not all of the f_spare fields were cleared on mips and s390. - Add the f_flags field to struct compat_statfs - Copy f_flags to userspace in case someone cares. - Use __clear_user to copy the f_spare field to userspace to ensure that all of the elements of f_spare are cleared. On some architectures f_spare is has 5 ints and on some architectures f_spare only has 4 ints. Which makes the previous technique of clearing each int individually broken.

nfsiostat was failing to find mounted filesystems on kernels after 2.6.38 because of changes to show_vfsstat() by commit c7f404b40a3665d9f4e9a927cc5c1ee0479ed8f9. This patch adds back the "device" tag before the nfs server entry so scripts can parse the mountstats file correctly.

2011-10-25ceph: let the set_layout ioctl set single traitsGreg Farnum
Previously we were validating the passed-in stripe unit, object size, and stripe count against each other (and not testing most other stuff). Instead, make sure that the composed previous layout and new values are valid, and only send the new values to the MDS. This lets users change the pool without setting the whole layout, for instance.

2011-10-25Revert "ceph: don't truncate dirty pages in invalidate work thread"Sage Weil
This reverts commit c9af9fb68e01eb2c2165e1bc45cfeeed510c64e6. We need to block and truncate all pages in order to reliably invalidate them. Otherwise, we could: - have some uptodate pages in the cache - queue an invalidate - write(2) locks some pages - invalidate_work skips them - write(2) only overwrites part of the page - page now dirty and uptodate -> partial leakage of invalidated data It's not entirely clear why we started skipping locked pages in the first place. I just ran this through fsx and didn't see any problems. Signed-off-by: Sage Weil <sage@newdream.net>
