2014-06-04memcg: optimize the "Search everything else" loop in mm_update_next_owner()Oleg Nesterov
for_each_process_thread() is sub-optimal. All threads share the same ->mm, we can swicth to the next process once we found a thread with ->mm != NULL and ->mm != mm.

2014-06-04memcg: mm_update_next_owner() should skip kthreadsOleg Nesterov
"Search through everything else" in mm_update_next_owner() can hit a kthread which adopted this "mm" via use_mm(), it should not be used as mm->owner. Add the PF_KTHREAD check. While at it, change this code to use for_each_process_thread() instead of deprecated do_each_thread/while_each_thread.

2014-06-04memcg: kill CONFIG_MM_OWNEROleg Nesterov
CONFIG_MM_OWNER makes no sense. It is not user-selectable, it is only selected by CONFIG_MEMCG automatically. So we can kill this option in init/Kconfig and do s/CONFIG_MM_OWNER/CONFIG_MEMCG/ globally.

2014-06-04mm: get rid of __GFP_KMEMCGVladimir Davydov
Currently to allocate a page that should be charged to kmemcg (e.g. threadinfo), we pass __GFP_KMEMCG flag to the page allocator. The page allocated is then to be freed by free_memcg_kmem_pages. Apart from looking asymmetrical, this also requires intrusion to the general allocation path. So let's introduce separate functions that will alloc/free pages charged to kmemcg. The new functions are called alloc_kmem_pages and free_kmem_pages. They should be used when the caller actually would like to use kmalloc, but has to fall back to the page allocator for the allocation is large. They only differ from alloc_pages and free_pages in that besides allocating or freeing pages they also charge them to the kmem resource counter of the current memory cgroup.

Commit 786235eeba0e ("kthread: make kthread_create() killable") meant for allowing kthread_create() to abort as soon as killed by the OOM-killer.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm into next Pull ACPI and power management updates from Rafael Wysocki: "ACPICA is the leader this time (63 commits), followed by cpufreq (28 commits), devfreq (15 commits), system suspend/hibernation (12 commits), ACPI video and ACPI device enumeration (10 commits each). We have no major new features this time, but there are a few significant changes of how things work. The most visible one will probably be that we are now going to create platform devices rather than PNP devices by default for ACPI device objects with _HID. That was long overdue and will be really necessary to be able to use the same drivers for the same hardware blocks on ACPI and DT-based systems going forward. We're not expecting fallout from this one (as usual), but it's something to watch nevertheless. The second change having a chance to be visible is that ACPI video will now default to using native backlight rather than the ACPI backlight interface which should generally help systems with broken Win8 BIOSes. We're hoping that all problems with the native backlight handling that we had previously have been addressed and we are in a good enough shape to flip the default, but this change should be easy enough to revert if need be. In addition to that, the system suspend core has a new mechanism to allow runtime-suspended devices to stay suspended throughout system suspend/resume transitions if some extra conditions are met (generally, they are related to coordination within device hierarchy). However, enabling this feature requires cooperation from the bus type layer and for now it has only been implemented for the ACPI PM domain (used by ACPI-enumerated platform devices mostly today). Also, the acpidump utility that was previously shipped as a separate tool will now be provided by the upstream ACPICA along with the rest of ACPICA code, which will allow it to be more up to date and better supported, and we have one new cpuidle driver (ARM clps711x). The rest is improvements related to certain specific use cases, cleanups and fixes all over the place. Specifics: - ACPICA update to upstream version 20140424. That includes a number of fixes and improvements related to things like GPE handling, table loading, headers, memory mapping and unmapping, DSDT/SSDT overriding, and the Unload() operator. The acpidump utility from upstream ACPICA is included too. From Bob Moore, Lv Zheng, David Box, David Binderman, and Colin Ian King. - Fixes and cleanups related to ACPI video and backlight interfaces from Hans de Goede. That includes blacklist entries for some new machines and using native backlight by default. - ACPI device enumeration changes to create platform devices rather than PNP devices for ACPI device objects with _HID by default. PNP devices will still be created for the ACPI device object with device IDs corresponding to real PNP devices, so that change should not break things left and right, and we're expecting to see more and more ACPI-enumerated platform devices in the future. From Zhang Rui and Rafael J Wysocki. - Updates for the ACPI LPSS (Low-Power Subsystem) driver allowing it to handle system suspend/resume on Asus T100 correctly. From Heikki Krogerus and Rafael J Wysocki. - PM core update introducing a mechanism to allow runtime-suspended devices to stay suspended over system suspend/resume transitions if certain additional conditions related to coordination within device hierarchy are met. Related PM documentation update and ACPI PM domain support for the new feature. From Rafael J Wysocki. - Fixes and improvements related to the "freeze" sleep state. They affect several places including cpuidle, PM core, ACPI core, and the ACPI battery driver. From Rafael J Wysocki and Zhang Rui. - Miscellaneous fixes and updates of the ACPI core from Aaron Lu, Bjørn Mork, Hanjun Guo, Lan Tianyu, and Rafael J Wysocki. - Fixes and cleanups for the ACPI processor and ACPI PAD (Processor Aggregator Device) drivers from Baoquan He, Manuel Schölling, Tony Camuso, and Toshi Kani. - System suspend/resume optimization in the ACPI battery driver from Lan Tianyu. - OPP (Operating Performance Points) subsystem updates from Chander Kashyap, Mark Brown, and Nishanth Menon. - cpufreq core fixes, updates and cleanups from Srivatsa S Bhat, Stratos Karafotis, and Viresh Kumar. - Updates, fixes and cleanups for the Tegra, powernow-k8, imx6q, s5pv210, nforce2, and powernv cpufreq drivers from Brian Norris, Jingoo Han, Paul Bolle, Philipp Zabel, Stratos Karafotis, and Viresh Kumar. - intel_pstate driver fixes and cleanups from Dirk Brandewie, Doug Smythies, and Stratos Karafotis. - Enabling the big.LITTLE cpufreq driver on arm64 from Mark Brown. - Fix for the cpuidle menu governor from Chander Kashyap. - New ARM clps711x cpuidle driver from Alexander Shiyan. - Hibernate core fixes and cleanups from Chen Gang, Dan Carpenter, Fabian Frederick, Pali Rohár, and Sebastian Capella. - Intel RAPL (Running Average Power Limit) driver updates from Jacob Pan. - PNP subsystem updates from Bjorn Helgaas and Fabian Frederick. - devfreq core updates from Chanwoo Choi and Paul Bolle. - devfreq updates for exynos4 and exynos5 from Chanwoo Choi and Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz. - turbostat tool fix from Jean Delvare. - cpupower tool updates from Prarit Bhargava, Ramkumar Ramachandra and Thomas Renninger. - New ACPI ec_access.c tool for poking at the EC in a safe way from Thomas Renninger" * tag 'pm+acpi-3.16-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm: (187 commits) ACPICA: Namespace: Remove _PRP method support. intel_pstate: Improve initial busy calculation intel_pstate: add sample time scaling intel_pstate: Correct rounding in busy calculation intel_pstate: Remove C0 tracking PM / hibernate: fixed typo in comment ACPI: Fix x86 regression related to early mapping size limitation ACPICA: Tables: Add mechanism to control early table checksum verification.

2014-05-28printk/of_serial: fix serial console cessation part way through boot.Stephen Chivers
Commit 5f5c9ae56c38942623f69c3e6dc6ec78e4da2076 "serial_core: Unregister console in uart_remove_one_port()" fixed a crash where a serial port was removed but not deregistered as a console. There is a side effect of that commit for platforms having serial consoles and of_serial configured (CONFIG_SERIAL_OF_PLATFORM). The serial console is disabled midway through the boot process. This cessation of the serial console affects PowerPC computers such as the MVME5100 and SAM440EP. The sequence is: bootconsole [udbg0] enabled .... serial8250/16550 driver initialises and registers its UARTS, one of these is the serial console. console [ttyS0] enabled .... of_serial probes "platform" devices, registering them as it goes. One of these is the serial console. console [ttyS0] disabled. The disabling of the serial console is due to: a. unregister_console in printk not clearing the CONS_ENABLED bit in the console flags, even though it has announced that the console is disabled; and b. of_platform_serial_probe in of_serial not setting the port type before it registers with serial8250_register_8250_port. This patch ensures that the serial console is re-enabled when of_serial registers a serial port that corresponds to the designated console.

2014-05-28rtmutex: Fix deadlock detector for realThomas Gleixner
The current deadlock detection logic does not work reliably due to the following early exit path: /* * Drop out, when the task has no waiters. Note, * top_waiter can be NULL, when we are in the deboosting * mode! */ if (top_waiter && (!task_has_pi_waiters(task) || top_waiter != task_top_pi_waiter(task))) goto out_unlock_pi; So this not only exits when the task has no waiters, it also exits unconditionally when the current waiter is not the top priority waiter of the task. So in a nested locking scenario, it might abort the lock chain walk and therefor miss a potential deadlock. Simple fix: Continue the chain walk, when deadlock detection is enabled. We also avoid the whole enqueue, if we detect the deadlock right away (A-A). It's an optimization, but also prevents that another waiter who comes in after the detection and before the task has undone the damage observes the situation and detects the deadlock and returns -EDEADLOCK, which is wrong as the other task is not in a deadlock situation.

If we try to perform a kexec when the machine is in ST (Single-Threaded) mode (ppc64_cpu --smt=off), the kexec operation doesn't succeed properly, and we get the following messages during boot: [ 0.089866] POWER8 performance monitor hardware support registered [ 0.089985] power8-pmu: PMAO restore workaround active.

Note that only the sibling threads are stuck, while the primary threads (0, 8, 16 etc) boot just fine. Looking closer at the previous step of kexec, we observe that kexec tries to wakeup (bring online) the sibling threads of all the cores, before performing kexec: [ 9464.131231] Starting new kernel [ 9464.148507] kexec: Waking offline cpu 1.

[ 9464.148994] kexec: Waking offline cpu 15. [ 9464.149030] kexec: Waking offline cpu 17. Instrumenting this piece of code revealed that the cpu_up() operation actually fails with -EBUSY. Thus, only the primary threads of all the cores are online during kexec, and hence this is a sure-shot receipe for disaster, as explained in commit e8e5c2155b (powerpc/kexec: Fix orphaned offline CPUs across kexec), as well as in the comment above wake_offline_cpus(). It turns out that cpu_up() was returning -EBUSY because the variable 'cpu_hotplug_disabled' was set to 1; and this disabling of CPU hotplug was done by migrate_to_reboot_cpu() inside kernel_kexec(). Now, migrate_to_reboot_cpu() was originally written with the assumption that any further code will not need to perform CPU hotplug, since we are anyway in the reboot path. However, kexec is clearly not such a case, since we depend on onlining CPUs, atleast on powerpc. So re-enable cpu-hotplug after returning from migrate_to_reboot_cpu() in the kexec path, to fix this regression in kexec on powerpc. Also, wrap the cpu_up() in powerpc kexec code within a WARN_ON(), so that we can catch such issues more easily in the future.

2014-05-26PM / sleep: Introduce command line argument for sleep state enumerationRafael J. Wysocki
On some systems the platform doesn't support neither PM_SUSPEND_MEM nor PM_SUSPEND_STANDBY, so PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE is the only available system sleep state. However, some user space frameworks only use the "mem" and (sometimes) "standby" sleep state labels, so the users of those systems need to modify user space in order to be able to use system suspend at all and that is not always possible. For this reason, add a new kernel command line argument, relative_sleep_states, allowing the users of those systems to change the way in which the kernel assigns labels to system sleep states. Namely, for relative_sleep_states=1, the "mem", "standby" and "freeze" labels will enumerate the available system sleem states from the deepest to the shallowest, respectively, so that "mem" is always present in /sys/power/state and the other state strings may or may not be presend depending on what is supported by the platform.

Affine wakeups have the potential to interfere with NUMA placement. If a task wakes up too many other tasks, affine wakeups will get disabled. However, regardless of how many other tasks it wakes up, it gets re-enabled once a second, potentially interfering with NUMA placement of other tasks. By decaying wakee_wakes in half instead of zeroing it, we can avoid that problem for some workloads.

Update the migrate_improves/degrades_locality() functions with knowledge of pseudo-interleaving. Do not consider moving tasks around within the set of group's active nodes as improving or degrading locality. Instead, leave the load balancer free to balance the load between a numa_group's active nodes. Also, switch from the group/task_weight functions to the group/task_fault functions. The "weight" functions involve a division, but both calls use the same divisor, so there's no point in doing that from these functions. On a 4 node (x10 core) system, performance of SPECjbb2005 seems unaffected, though the number of migrations with 2 8-warehouse wide instances seems to have almost halved, due to the scheduler running each instance on a single node.

2014-05-22sched: Initialize rq->age_stamp on processor startCorey Minyard
If the sched_clock time starts at a large value, the kernel will spin in sched_avg_update for a long time while rq->age_stamp catches up with rq->clock. The comment in kernel/sched/clock.c says that there is no strict promise that it starts at zero. So initialize rq->age_stamp when a cpu starts up to avoid this. I was seeing long delays on a simulator that didn't start the clock at zero. This might also be an issue on reboots on processors that don't re-initialize the timer to zero on reset, and when using kexec.

2014-05-22sched: Fix the rq->next_balance logic in rebalance_domains() and idle_balance()Jason Low
Currently, in idle_balance(), we update rq->next_balance when we pull_tasks. However, it is also important to update this in the !pulled_tasks case too. When the CPU is "busy" (the CPU isn't idle), rq->next_balance gets computed using sd->busy_factor (so we increase the balance interval when the CPU is busy). However, when the CPU goes idle, rq->next_balance could still be set to a large value that was computed with the sd->busy_factor. Thus, we need to also update rq->next_balance in idle_balance() in the cases where !pulled_tasks too, so that rq->next_balance gets updated without taking the busy_factor into account when the CPU is about to go idle. This patch makes rq->next_balance get updated independently of whether or not we pulled_task. Also, we add logic to ensure that we always traverse at least 1 of the sched domains to get a proper next_balance value for updating rq->next_balance. Additionally, since load_balance() modifies the sd->balance_interval, we need to re-obtain the sched domain's interval after the call to load_balance() in rebalance_domains() before we update rq->next_balance. This patch adds and uses 2 new helper functions, update_next_balance() and get_sd_balance_interval() to update next_balance and obtain the sched domain's balance_interval.

2014-05-22sched/numa: Fix initialization of sched_domain_topology for NUMAVincent Guittot
Jet Chen has reported a kernel panics when booting qemu-system-x86_64 with kvm64 cpu. A panic occured while building the sched_domain. In sched_init_numa, we create a new topology table in which both default levels and numa levels are copied. The last row of the table must have a null pointer in the mask field. The current implementation doesn't add this last row in the computation of the table size. So we add 1 row in the allocation size that will be used as the last row of the table. The kzalloc will ensure that the mask field is NULL.

2014-05-22sched: Call select_idle_sibling() when not affine_sdRik van Riel
On smaller systems, the top level sched domain will be an affine domain, and select_idle_sibling is invoked for every SD_WAKE_AFFINE wakeup. This seems to be working well. On larger systems, with the node distance between far away NUMA nodes being > RECLAIM_DISTANCE, select_idle_sibling is only called if the waker and the wakee are on nodes less than RECLAIM_DISTANCE apart. This patch leaves in place the policy of not pulling the task across nodes on such systems, while fixing the issue that select_idle_sibling is not called at all in certain circumstances. The code will look for an idle CPU in the same CPU package as the CPU where the task ran previously.

2014-05-22sched: Simplify return logic in sched_copy_attr()Michael Kerrisk
The logic in this function is a little contorted, clean it up: * Rather than having chained gotos for the -EFBIG case, just return -EFBIG directly. * Now, the label 'out' is no longer needed, and 'ret' must be zero zero by the time we fall through to this point, so just return 0.

2014-05-22sched: Fix exec_start/task_hot on migrated tasksBen Segall
task_hot checks exec_start on any runnable task, but if it has been migrated since the it last ran, then exec_start is a clock_task from another cpu. If the old cpu's clock_task was sufficiently far ahead of this cpu's then the task will not be considered for another migration until it has run. Instead reset exec_start whenever a task is migrated, since it is presumably no longer hot anyway.
