2013-08-16perf: Roll back callchain buffer refcount under the callchain mutexFrederic Weisbecker
When we fail to allocate the callchain buffers, we roll back the refcount we did and return from get_callchain_buffers(). However we take the refcount and allocate under the callchain lock but the rollback is done outside the lock. As a result, while we roll back, some concurrent callchain user may call get_callchain_buffers(), see the non-zero refcount and give up because the buffers are NULL without itself retrying the allocation. The consequences aren't that bad but that behaviour looks weird enough and it's better to give their chances to the following callchain users where we failed.

2013-08-16nohz: Include local CPU in full dynticks global kickFrederic Weisbecker
tick_nohz_full_kick_all() is useful to notify all full dynticks CPUs that there is a system state change to checkout before re-evaluating the need for the tick. Unfortunately this is implemented using smp_call_function_many() that ignores the local CPU. This CPU also needs to re-evaluate the tick. on_each_cpu_mask() is not useful either because we don't want to re-evaluate the tick state in place but asynchronously from an IPI to avoid messing up with any random locking scenario. So lets call tick_nohz_full_kick() from tick_nohz_full_kick_all() so that the usual irq work takes care of it.

Meanhile the snapshot updaters that rely on get_vtime_delta() also set the new snapshot origin. But some of them do this right before the call to get_vtime_delta(), making its debug check useless.

Fix inadvertent breakage in the clone syscall ABI for Microblaze that was introduced in commit f3268edbe6fe ("microblaze: switch to generic fork/vfork/clone"). The Microblaze syscall ABI for clone takes the parent tid address in the 4th argument; the third argument slot is used for the stack size. The incorrectly-used CLONE_BACKWARDS type assigned parent tid to the 3rd slot. This commit restores the original ABI so that existing userspace libc code will work correctly.

2013-08-13cgroup: RCU protect each cgroup_subsys_state releaseTejun Heo
With the planned unified hierarchy, individual css's will be created and destroyed dynamically across the lifetime of a cgroup. To enable such usages, css destruction is being decoupled from cgroup destruction. Most of the destruction path has been decoupled but the actual free of css still depends on cgroup free path. When all css refs are drained, css_release() kicks off css_free_work_fn() which puts the cgroup. When the cgroup refcnt reaches zero, cgroup_diput() is invoked which in turn schedules RCU free of the cgroup. After a grace period, all css's are freed along with the cgroup itself. This patch moves the RCU grace period and css freeing from cgroup release path to css release path. css_release(), instead of kicking off css_free_work_fn() directly, schedules RCU callback css_free_rcu_fn() which in turn kicks off css_free_work_fn() after a RCU grace period. css_free_work_fn() is updated to free the css directly. The five-way punting - percpu ref kill confirmation, a work item, percpu ref release, RCU grace period, and again a work item - is quite hairy but the work items are there only to provide process context and the actual sequence is kill confirm -> release -> RCU free, which isn't simple but not too crazy. This removes cgroup_css() usage after offline_css() allowing clearing cgroup->subsys[] from offline_css(), which makes it consistent with online_css() and brings it closer to proper lifetime management for individual css's.

2013-08-13cgroup: decouple cgroup_subsys_state destruction from cgroup destructionTejun Heo
Currently, css (cgroup_subsys_state) lifetime is tied to that of the associated cgroup. css's are created when the associated cgroup is created and destroyed when it gets destroyed. Also, individual css's aren't RCU protected but the whole cgroup is. With the planned unified hierarchy, css's will need to be dynamically created and destroyed within the lifetime of a cgroup. To enable such usages, this patch decouples css destruction from cgroup destruction - offline_css() invocation and the final css_put() are moved from cgroup_destroy_css_killed() to css_killed_work_fn(). Now each css is individually offlined and put as its reference count is killed instead of waiting for all css's attached to the cgroup to finish refcnt killing and then proceeding to offlining and putting them together. While this changes the order of destruction operations, the changes shouldn't be noticeable to cgroup subsystems or userland.

2013-08-13cgroup: replace cgroup->css_kill_cnt with ->nr_cssTejun Heo
Currently, css (cgroup_subsys_state) lifetime is tied to that of the associated cgroup. With the planned unified hierarchy, css's will be dynamically created and destroyed within the lifetime of a cgroup. To enable such usages, css's will be individually RCU protected instead of being tied to the cgroup. cgroup->css_kill_cnt is used during cgroup destruction to wait for css reference count disable; however, this model doesn't work once css's lifetimes are managed separately from cgroup's. This patch replaces it with cgroup->nr_css which is an cgroup_mutex protected integer counting the number of attached css's. The count is incremented from online_css() and decremented after refcnt kill is confirmed. If the count reaches zero and the cgroup is marked dead, the second stage of cgroup destruction is kicked off. If a cgroup doesn't have any css attached at the time of rmdir, cgroup_destroy_locked() now invokes the second stage directly as no css kill confirmation would happen. cgroup_offline_fn() - the second step of cgroup destruction - is renamed to cgroup_destroy_css_killed() and now expects to be called with cgroup_mutex held. While this patch changes how css destruction is punted to work items, it shouldn't change any visible behavior. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Acked-by: Li Zefan <lizefan@huawei.com>

2013-08-13cgroup: move cgroup->subsys[] assignment to online_css()Tejun Heo
Currently, css (cgroup_subsys_state) lifetime is tied to that of the associated cgroup. With the planned unified hierarchy, css's will be dynamically created and destroyed within the lifetime of a cgroup. To enable such usages, css's will be individually RCU protected instead of being tied to the cgroup. In preparation, this patch moves cgroup->subsys[] assignment from init_css() to online_css(). As this means that a newly initialized css should be remembered separately and that cgroup_css() returns NULL between init and online, cgroup_create() is updated so that it stores newly created css's in a local array css_ar[] and cgroup_init/load_subsys() are updated to use local variable @css instead of using cgroup_css(). This change also slightly simplifies error path of cgroup_create(). While this patch changes when cgroup->subsys[] is initialized, this change isn't visible to subsystems or userland. v2: This patch wasn't updated accordingly after the previous "cgroup: reorganize css init / exit paths" was updated leading to missing a css_ar[] conversion in cgroup_create() and thus boot failure. Fix it. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Acked-by: Li Zefan <lizefan@huawei.com>

2013-08-14PM / QoS: Fix workqueue deadlock when using pm_qos_update_request_timeout()Stephen Boyd
pm_qos_update_request_timeout() updates a qos and then schedules a delayed work item to bring the qos back down to the default after the timeout. When the work item runs, pm_qos_work_fn() will call pm_qos_update_request() and deadlock because it tries to cancel itself via cancel_delayed_work_sync(). Future callers of that qos will also hang waiting to cancel the work that is canceling itself. Let's extract the little bit of code that does the real work of pm_qos_update_request() and call it from the work function so that we don't deadlock. Before ed1ac6e (PM: don't use [delayed_]work_pending()) this didn't happen because the work function wouldn't try to cancel itself.

2013-08-13sched: fix the theoretical signal_wake_up() vs schedule() raceOleg Nesterov
This is only theoretical, but after try_to_wake_up(p) was changed to check p->state under p->pi_lock the code like __set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE); schedule(); can miss a signal. This is the special case of wait-for-condition, it relies on try_to_wake_up/schedule interaction and thus it does not need mb() between __set_current_state() and if(signal_pending). However, this __set_current_state() can move into the critical section protected by rq->lock, now that try_to_wake_up() takes another lock we need to ensure that it can't be reordered with "if (signal_pending(current))" check inside that section. The patch is actually one-liner, it simply adds smp_wmb() before spin_lock_irq(rq->lock). This is what try_to_wake_up() already does by the same reason. We turn this wmb() into the new helper, smp_mb__before_spinlock(), for better documentation and to allow the architectures to change the default implementation. While at it, kill smp_mb__after_lock(), it has no callers. Perhaps we can also add smp_mb__before/after_spinunlock() for prepare_to_wait().

cfent->css For the planned unified hierarchy, each css (cgroup_subsys_state) will be RCU protected so that it can be created and destroyed individually while allowing RCU accesses, and cgroup_css() will soon require either holding cgroup_mutex or RCU read lock. This patch updates cgroup_file_open() such that it acquires the associated css under rcu_read_lock(). While cgroup_file_css() usages in other file operations are safe due to the reference from open, cgroup_css() wouldn't know that and will still trigger warnings. It'd be cleanest to store the acquired css in file->prvidate_data for further file operations but that's already used by seqfile. This patch instead adds cfent->css to cache the associated css.

2013-08-13cgroup: add cgroup_subsys_state->parentTejun Heo
With the planned unified hierarchy, css's (cgroup_subsys_state) will be RCU protected and allowed to be attached and detached dynamically over the course of a cgroup's lifetime. This means that css's will stay accessible after being detached from its cgroup - the matching pointer in cgroup->subsys[] cleared - for ref draining and RCU grace period. cgroup core still wants to guarantee that the parent css is never destroyed before its children and css_parent() always returns the parent regardless of the state of the child css as long as it's accessible. This patch makes css's hold onto their parents and adds css->parent so that the parent css is never detroyed before its children and can be determined without consulting the cgroups. cgroup->dummy_css is also updated to point to the parent dummy_css; however, it doesn't need to worry about object lifetime as the parent cgroup is already pinned by the child.

2013-08-13ACPI / processor: Acquire writer lock to update CPU mapsToshi Kani
CPU system maps are protected with reader/writer locks. The reader lock, get_online_cpus(), assures that the maps are not updated while holding the lock. The writer lock, cpu_hotplug_begin(), is used to udpate the cpu maps along with cpu_maps_update_begin(). However, the ACPI processor handler updates the cpu maps without holding the the writer lock. acpi_map_lsapic() is called from acpi_processor_hotadd_init() to update cpu_possible_mask and cpu_present_mask. acpi_unmap_lsapic() is called from acpi_processor_remove() to update cpu_possible_mask. Currently, they are either unprotected or protected with the reader lock, which is not correct. For example, the get_online_cpus() below is supposed to assure that cpu_possible_mask is not changed while the code is iterating with for_each_possible_cpu(). get_online_cpus(); for_each_possible_cpu(cpu) { : } put_online_cpus(); However, this lock has no protection with CPU hotplug since the ACPI processor handler does not use the writer lock when it updates cpu_possible_mask. The reader lock does not serialize within the readers. This patch protects them with the writer lock with cpu_hotplug_begin() along with cpu_maps_update_begin(), which must be held before calling cpu_hotplug_begin(). It also protects arch_register_cpu() / arch_unregister_cpu(), which creates / deletes a sysfs cpu device interface. For this purpose it changes cpu_hotplug_begin() and cpu_hotplug_done() to global and exports them in cpu.h. Signed-off-by: Toshi Kani <toshi.kani@hp.com> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2013-08-13context_tracking: Remove full dynticks' hacky dependency on wide context ↵Frederic Weisbecker
tracking Now that the full dynticks subsystem only enables the context tracking on full dynticks CPUs, lets remove the dependency on CONTEXT_TRACKING_FORCE This dependency was a hack to enable the context tracking widely for the full dynticks susbsystem until the latter becomes able to enable it in a more CPU-finegrained fashion. Now CONTEXT_TRACKING_FORCE only stands for testing on archs that work on support for the context tracking while full dynticks can't be used yet due to unmet dependencies. It simulates a system where all CPUs are full dynticks so that RCU user extended quiescent states and dynticks cputime accounting can be tested on the given arch.

2013-08-13nohz: Only enable context tracking on full dynticks CPUsFrederic Weisbecker
The context tracking subsystem has the ability to selectively enable the tracking on any defined subset of CPU. This means that we can define a CPU range that doesn't run the context tracking and another range that does. Now what we want in practice is to enable the tracking on full dynticks CPUs only. In order to perform this, we just need to pass our full dynticks CPU range selection from the full dynticks subsystem to the context tracking. This way we can spare the overhead of RCU user extended quiescent state and vtime maintainance on the CPUs that are outside the full dynticks range. Just keep in mind the raw context tracking itself is still necessary everywhere. Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Paul E.

2013-08-13context_tracking: Fix runtime CPU off-caseFrederic Weisbecker
As long as the context tracking is enabled on any CPU, even a single one, all other CPUs need to keep track of their user <-> kernel boundaries cross as well. This is because a task can sleep while servicing an exception that happened in the kernel or in userspace. Then when the task eventually wakes up and return from the exception, the CPU needs to know if we resume in userspace or in the kernel. exception_exit() get this information from exception_enter() that saved the previous state. If the CPU where the exception happened didn't keep track of these informations, exception_exit() doesn't know which state tracking to restore on the CPU where the task got migrated and we may return to userspace with the context tracking subsystem thinking that we are in kernel mode. This can be fixed in the long term if we move our context tracking probes on very low level arch fast path user <-> kernel boundary, although even that is worrisome as an exception can still happen in the few instructions between the probe and the actual iret. Also we are not yet ready to set these probes in the fast path given the potential overhead problem it induces. So let's fix this by always enable context tracking even on CPUs that are not in the full dynticks range. OTOH we can spare the rcu_user_*() and vtime_user_*() calls there because the tick runs on these CPUs and we can handle RCU state machine and cputime accounting through it.

2013-08-13context_tracing: Fix guest accounting with native vtimeFrederic Weisbecker
1) If context tracking is enabled with native vtime accounting (which combo is useless except for dev testing), we call vtime_guest_enter() and vtime_guest_exit() on host <-> guest switches. But those are stubs in this configurations. As a result, cputime is not correctly flushed on kvm context switches. 2) If context tracking runs but is disabled on some CPUs, those CPUs end up calling __guest_enter/__guest_exit which in turn call vtime_account_system(). We don't want to call this because we run in tick based accounting for these CPUs. Refactor the guest_enter/guest_exit code such that all combinations finally work.
