2014-03-24cgroup: Use RCU_INIT_POINTER(x, NULL) in cgroup.cMonam Agarwal
This patch replaces rcu_assign_pointer(x, NULL) with RCU_INIT_POINTER(x, NULL) The rcu_assign_pointer() ensures that the initialization of a structure is carried out before storing a pointer to that structure. And in the case of the NULL pointer, there is no structure to initialize. So, rcu_assign_pointer(p, NULL) can be safely converted to RCU_INIT_POINTER(p, NULL) Signed-off-by: Monam Agarwal <monamagarwal123@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

2014-03-21Revert "tracing: Move event storage for array from macro to standalone function"Steven Rostedt (Red Hat)
I originally wrote commit 35bb4399bd0e to shrink the size of the overhead of tracepoints by several kilobytes. Later, I received a patch from Vaibhav Nagarnaik that fixed a bug in the same code that this commit touches. Not only did it fix a bug, it also removed code and shrunk the size of the overhead of trace events even more than this commit did. Since this commit is scheduled for 3.15 and Vaibhav's patch is already in mainline, I need to revert this patch in order to keep it from conflicting with Vaibhav's patch. Not to mention, Vaibhav's patch makes this patch obsolete.

2014-03-20futex: revert back to the explicit waiter counting codeLinus Torvalds
Srikar Dronamraju reports that commit b0c29f79ecea ("futexes: Avoid taking the hb->lock if there's nothing to wake up") causes java threads getting stuck on futexes when runing specjbb on a power7 numa box. The cause appears to be that the powerpc spinlocks aren't using the same ticket lock model that we use on x86 (and other) architectures, which in turn result in the "spin_is_locked()" test in hb_waiters_pending() occasionally reporting an unlocked spinlock even when there are pending waiters. So this reinstates Davidlohr Bueso's original explicit waiter counting code, which I had convinced Davidlohr to drop in favor of figuring out the pending waiters by just using the existing state of the spinlock and the wait queue.

2014-03-20rcu: Provide grace-period piggybacking APIPaul E. McKenney
The following pattern is currently not well supported by RCU: 1. Make data element inaccessible to RCU readers. 2. Do work that probably lasts for more than one grace period. 3. Do something to make sure RCU readers in flight before #1 above have completed. Here are some things that could currently be done: a. Do a synchronize_rcu() unconditionally at either #1 or #3 above. This works, but imposes needless work and latency. b. Post an RCU callback at #1 above that does a wakeup, then wait for the wakeup at #3. This works well, but likely results in an extra unneeded grace period. Open-coding this is also a bit more semi-tricky code than would be good. This commit therefore adds get_state_synchronize_rcu() and cond_synchronize_rcu() APIs. Call get_state_synchronize_rcu() at #1 above and pass its return value to cond_synchronize_rcu() at #3 above. This results in a call to synchronize_rcu() if no grace period has elapsed between #1 and #3, but requires only a load, comparison, and memory barrier if a full grace period did elapse.

2014-03-20tracing: Fix array size mismatch in format stringVaibhav Nagarnaik
In event format strings, the array size is reported in two locations. One in array subscript and then via the "size:" attribute. The values reported there have a mismatch. For e.g., in sched:sched_switch the prev_comm and next_comm character arrays have subscript values as [32] where as the actual field size is 16. name: sched_switch ID: 301 format: field:unsigned short common_type; offset:0; size:2; signed:0; field:unsigned char common_flags; offset:2; size:1; signed:0; field:unsigned char common_preempt_count; offset:3; size:1;signed:0; field:int common_pid; offset:4; size:4; signed:1; field:char prev_comm[32]; offset:8; size:16; signed:1; field:pid_t prev_pid; offset:24; size:4; signed:1; field:int prev_prio; offset:28; size:4; signed:1; field:long prev_state; offset:32; size:8; signed:1; field:char next_comm[32]; offset:40; size:16; signed:1; field:pid_t next_pid; offset:56; size:4; signed:1; field:int next_prio; offset:60; size:4; signed:1; After bisection, the following commit was blamed: 92edca0 tracing: Use direct field, type and system names This commit removes the duplication of strings for field->name and field->type assuming that all the strings passed in __trace_define_field() are immutable. This is not true for arrays, where the type string is created in event_storage variable and field->type for all array fields points to event_storage. Use __stringify() to create a string constant for the type string. Also, get rid of event_storage and event_storage_mutex that are not needed anymore. also, an added benefit is that this reduces the overhead of events a bit more: text data bss dec hex filename 8424787 2036472 1302528 11763787 b3804b vmlinux 8420814 2036408 1302528 11759750 b37086 vmlinux.patched Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1392349908-29685-1-git-send-email-vnagarnaik@google.com Cc: Laurent Chavey <chavey@google.com> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # 3.10+ Signed-off-by: Vaibhav Nagarnaik <vnagarnaik@google.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2014-03-20cgroup: break kernfs active_ref protection in cgroup directory operationsTejun Heo
cgroup_tree_mutex should nest above the kernfs active_ref protection; however, cgroup_create() and cgroup_rename() were grabbing cgroup_tree_mutex while under kernfs active_ref protection. This has actualy possibility to lead to deadlocks in case these operations race against cgroup_rmdir() which invokes kernfs_remove() on directory kernfs_node while holding cgroup_tree_mutex. Neither cgroup_create() or cgroup_rename() requires active_ref protection. The former already has enough synchronization through cgroup_lock_live_group() and the latter doesn't care, so this can be fixed by updating both functions to break all active_ref protections before grabbing cgroup_tree_mutex. While this patch fixes the immediate issue, it probably needs further work in the long term - kernfs directories should enable lockdep annotations and maybe the better way to handle this is marking directory nodes as not needing active_ref protection rather than breaking it in each operation.

2014-03-20timer: Remove code redundancy while calling get_nohz_timer_target()Viresh Kumar
There are only two users of get_nohz_timer_target(): timer and hrtimer. Both call it under same circumstances, i.e. #ifdef CONFIG_NO_HZ_COMMON if (!pinned && get_sysctl_timer_migration() && idle_cpu(this_cpu)) return get_nohz_timer_target(); #endif So, it makes more sense to get all this as part of get_nohz_timer_target() instead of duplicating code at two places.

2014-03-19cgroup: fix cgroup_taskset walking orderTejun Heo
cgroup_taskset is used to track and iterate target tasks while migrating a task or process and should guarantee that the first task iterated is the task group leader if a process is being migrated. b3dc094e9390 ("cgroup: use css_set->mg_tasks to track target tasks during migration") replaced flex array cgroup_taskset->tc_array with css_set->mg_tasks list to remove process size limit and dynamic allocation during migration; unfortunately, it incorrectly used list operations which don't preserve order breaking the guarantee that cgroup_taskset_first() returns the leader for a process target. Fix it by using order preserving list operations. Note that as multiple src_csets may map to a single dst_cset, the iteration order may change across cgroup_task_migrate(); however, the leader is still guaranteed to be the first entry. The switch to list_splice_tail_init() at the end of cgroup_migrate() isn't strictly necessary. Let's still do it for consistency. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
2014-03-19resources: Set type in __request_region()Bjorn Helgaas
We don't set the type (I/O, memory, etc.) of resources added by __request_region(), which leads to confusing messages like this: address space collision: [io 0x1000-0x107f] conflicts with ACPI CPU throttle [??? 0x00001010-0x00001015 flags 0x80000000] Set the type of a new resource added by __request_region() (used by request_region() and request_mem_region()) to the type of its parent. This makes the resource tree internally consistent and fixes messages like the above, where the ACPI CPU throttle resource really is an I/O port region, but request_region() didn't fill in the type, so %pR didn't know how to print it.

2014-03-19cgroup: make cgrp_dfl_root mountableTejun Heo
cgrp_dfl_root will be used as the default unified hierarchy. This patch makes cgrp_dfl_root mountable by making the following changes. * cgroup_init_early() now initializes cgrp_dfl_root w/ CGRP_ROOT_SANE_BEHAVIOR. The default hierarchy is always sane. * parse_cgroupfs_options() and cgroup_mount() are updated such that cgrp_dfl_root is mounted if sane_behavior is specified w/o any subsystems. * rebind_subsystems() now populates the root directory of cgrp_dfl_root. Note that the function still guarantees success of rebinding subsystems to cgrp_dfl_root. If populating fails while rebinding to cgrp_dfl_root, it whines but ignores the error. * For backward compatibility, the default hierarchy shows up in /proc/$PID/cgroup only after it's explicitly mounted so that userland which doesn't make use of it doesn't see any change. * "current_css_set_cg_links" file of debug cgroup now treats the default hierarchy the same as other hierarchies. This is visible to userland. Given that it's for debug controller, this should be fine. * While at it, implement cgroup_on_dfl() which tests whether a give cgroup is on the default hierarchy or not. The above changes make cgrp_dfl_root mostly equivalent to other controllers but the actual unified hierarchy behaviors are not implemented yet.

2014-03-19cgroup: move ->subsys_mask from cgroupfs_root to cgroupTejun Heo
cgroupfs_root->subsys_mask represents the controllers attached to the hierarchy. This patch moves the field to cgroup. Subsystem initialization and rebinding updates the top cgroup's subsys_mask. For !root cgroups, the subsys_mask bits are set from create_css() and cleared from kill_css(), which effectively means that all cgroups will have the same subsys_mask as the top cgroup. While this doesn't make any difference now, this will help implementation of the default unified hierarchy where !root cgroups may have subsets of the top_cgroup's subsys_mask. While at it, __kill_css() is split out of kill_css(). The former doesn't care about the subsys_mask while the latter becomes noop if the controller is already killed and clears the matching bit if not before proceeding to killing the css. This will be used later by the default unified hierarchy implementation. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Acked-by: Li Zefan <lizefan@huawei.com>
2014-03-19cgroup: treat cgroup_dummy_root as an equivalent hierarchy during rebindingTejun Heo
Currently, while rebinding, cgroup_dummy_root serves as the anchor point. In addition to the target root, rebind_subsystems() takes @added_mask and @removed_mask. The subsystems specified in the former are expected to be on the dummy root and then moved to the target root. The ones in the latter are moved from non-dummy root to dummy. Now that the dummy root is a fully functional one and we're planning to use it for the default unified hierarchy, this level of distinction between dummy and non-dummy roots is quite awkward. This patch updates rebind_subsystems() to take the target root and one subsystem mask and move the specified subsystmes to the target root which may or may not be the dummy root. IOW, unbinding now becomes moving the subsystems to the dummy root and binding to non-dummy root. This makes the dummy root mostly equivalent to other hierarchies in terms of the mechanism of moving subsystems around; however, we still retain all the semantical restrictions so that this patch doesn't introduce any visible behavior differences. Another noteworthy detail is that rebind_subsystems() guarantees that moving a subsystem to the dummy root never fails so that valid unmounting attempts always succeed. This unifies binding and unbinding of subsystems. The invocation points of ->bind() were inconsistent between the two and now moved after whole rebinding is complete. This doesn't break the current users and generally makes more sense. All rebind_subsystems() users are converted accordingly. Note that cgroup_remount() now makes two calls to rebind_subsystems() to bind and then unbind the requested subsystems. This will allow repurposing of the dummy hierarchy as the default unified hierarchy and shouldn't make any userland visible behavior difference.

2014-03-19cgroup: use cgroup_setup_root() to initialize cgroup_dummy_rootTejun Heo
cgroup_dummy_root is used to host controllers which aren't attached to any other hierarchy. The root is minimally set up during kernfs bootstrap and didn't go through full hierarchy initialization. We're planning to use cgroup_dummy_root for the default unified hierarchy and thus want it to be fully functional. Replace the special initialization, which was collected into cgroup_init() by the previous patch, with an invocation of cgroup_setup_root(). This simplifies the init path and makes cgroup_dummy_root a full hierarchy with its own kernfs_root and all. As this puts the dummy hierarchy on the cgroup_roots list, rename for_each_active_root() to for_each_root() and update its users to skip the dummy root for now. This patch doesn't cause any userland visible behavior changes at this point. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Acked-by: Li Zefan <lizefan@huawei.com>
2014-03-19cgroup: reorganize cgroup bootstrappingTejun Heo

The leftover part of cgroup_root_from_opts() is collapsed into its only caller - cgroup_mount(). * Initialization of cgroup_root_count and linking of init_css_set are moved from cgroup_init_early() to to cgroup_init(). None of the early_init users depends on init_css_set being linked. * Subsystem initializations are moved after dummy hierarchy init and init_css_set linking. These changes reorganize the bootstrap logic so that the dummy hierarchy can share the usual hierarchy init path and be made more normal. These changes don't make noticeable behavior changes.

2014-03-13cputime: Fix jiffies based cputime assumption on steal accountingFrederic Weisbecker
The steal guest time accounting code assumes that cputime_t is based on jiffies. So when CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL=y, which implies that cputime_t is based on nsecs, steal_account_process_tick() passes the delta in jiffies to account_steal_time() which then accounts it as if it's a value in nsecs. As a result, accounting 1 second of steal time (with HZ=100 that would be 100 jiffies) is spuriously accounted as 100 nsecs. As such /proc/stat may report 0 values of steal time even when two guests have run concurrently for a few seconds on the same host and same CPU. In order to fix this, lets convert the nsecs based steal delta to cputime instead of jiffies by using the right conversion API. Given that the steal time is stored in cputime_t and this type can have a smaller granularity than nsecs, we only account the rounded converted value and leave the remaining nsecs for the next deltas.

2014-03-12genirq: Provide irq_request/release_resources chip callbacksThomas Gleixner
For certain irq types, e.g. gpios, it's necessary to request resources before starting up the irq. This might fail so we cannot use the irq_startup() callback because we might call the irq_set_type() callback before that which does not make sense when the resource is not available. Calling irq_startup() before irq_set_type() can lead to spurious interrupts which is not desired either.

2014-03-12locking/mutex: Fix debug checksPeter Zijlstra
OK, so commit: 1d8fe7dc8078 ("locking/mutexes: Unlock the mutex without the wait_lock") generates this boot warning when CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES=y: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 139 at /usr/src/linux-2.6/kernel/locking/mutex-debug.c:82 debug_mutex_unlock+0x155/0x180() DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON(lock->owner != current) And that makes sense, because as soon as we release the lock a new owner can come in... One would think that !__mutex_slowpath_needs_to_unlock() implementations suffer the same, but for DEBUG we fall back to mutex-null.h which has an unconditional 1 for that. The mutex debug code requires the mutex to be unlocked after doing the debug checks, otherwise it can find inconsistent state.

2014-03-12sched: Fix broken setscheduler()Steven Rostedt
I decided to run my tests on linux-next, and my wakeup_rt tracer was broken. After running a bisect, I found that the problem commit was: linux-next commit c365c292d059 "sched: Consider pi boosting in setscheduler()" And the reason the wake_rt tracer test was failing, was because it had no RT task to trace. I first noticed this when running with sched_switch event and saw that my RT task still had normal SCHED_OTHER priority. Looking at the problem commit, I found: - p->normal_prio = normal_prio(p); - p->prio = rt_mutex_getprio(p); With no + p->normal_prio = normal_prio(p); + p->prio = rt_mutex_getprio(p); Reading what the commit is suppose to do, I realize that the p->prio can't be set if the task is boosted with a higher prio, but the p->normal_prio still needs to be set regardless, otherwise, when the task is deboosted, it wont get the new priority. The p->prio has to be set before "check_class_changed()" is called, otherwise the class wont be changed. Also added fix to newprio to include a check for deadline policy that was missing. This change was suggested by Juri Lelli.

2014-03-11locking/mutexes: Unlock the mutex without the wait_lockJason Low
When running workloads that have high contention in mutexes on an 8 socket machine, mutex spinners would often spin for a long time with no lock owner. The main reason why this is occuring is in __mutex_unlock_common_slowpath(), if __mutex_slowpath_needs_to_unlock(), then the owner needs to acquire the mutex->wait_lock before releasing the mutex (setting lock->count to 1). When the wait_lock is contended, this delays the mutex from being released. We should be able to release the mutex without holding the wait_lock.
