mm, page_alloc: inline the fast path of the zonelist iterator

The page allocator iterates through a zonelist for zones that match the
addressing limitations and nodemask of the caller but many allocations
will not be restricted.  Despite this, there is always functional call
overhead which builds up.

This patch inlines the optimistic basic case and only calls the iterator
function for the complex case.  A hindrance was the fact that
cpuset_current_mems_allowed is used in the fastpath as the allowed
nodemask even though all nodes are allowed on most systems.  The patch
handles this by only considering cpuset_current_mems_allowed if a cpuset
exists.  As well as being faster in the fast-path, this removes some
junk in the slowpath.

There is a sizable boost to the free allocator performance.  While there
is an apparent boost on the allocation side, it's likely a co-incidence
or due to the patches slightly reducing cache footprint.

8 years agomm, page_alloc: only check PageCompound for high-order pages

mm, page_alloc: only check PageCompound for high-order pages

Another year, another round of page allocator optimisations focusing
this time on the alloc and free fast paths.  This should be of help to
workloads that are allocator-intensive from kernel space where the cost
of zeroing is not nceessraily incurred.

The series is motivated by the observation that page alloc
microbenchmarks on multiple machines regressed between 3.12.44 and 4.4.
Second, there is discussions before LSF/MM considering the possibility
of adding another page allocator which is potentially hazardous but a
patch series improving performance is better than whining.

After the series is applied, there are still hazards.  In the free
paths, the debugging checking and page zone/pageblock lookups dominate
but there was not an obvious solution to that.  In the alloc path, the
major contributers are dealing with zonelists, new page preperation, the
fair zone allocation and numerous statistic updates.  The fair zone
allocator is removed by the per-node LRU series if that gets merged so
it's nor a major concern at the moment.

On normal userspace benchmarks, there is little impact as the zeroing
cost is significant but it's visible

8 years agomm, oom_reaper: clear TIF_MEMDIE for all tasks queued for oom_reaper
Michal Hocko [Fri, 20 May 2016 00:13:15 +0000 (17:13 -0700)]
mm, oom_reaper: clear TIF_MEMDIE for all tasks queued for oom_reaper

Right now the oom reaper will clear TIF_MEMDIE only for tasks which were
successfully reaped.  This is the safest option because we know that
such an oom victim would only block forward progress of the oom killer
without a good reason because it is highly unlikely it would release
much more memory.  Basically most of its memory has been already torn
down.

We can relax this assumption to catch more corner cases though.

The first obvious one is when the oom victim clears its mm and gets
stuck later on.  oom_reaper would back of on find_lock_task_mm returning
NULL.  We can safely try to clear TIF_MEMDIE in this case because such a
task would be ignored by the oom killer anyway.  The flag would be
cleared by that time already most of the time anyway.

The less obvious one is when the oom reaper fails due to mmap_sem
contention.  Even if we clear TIF_MEMDIE for this task then it is not
very likely that we would select another task too easily because we
haven't reaped the last victim and so it would be still the #1
candidate.  There is a rare race condition possible when the current
victim terminates before the next select_bad_process but considering
that oom_reap_task had retried several times before giving up then this
sounds like a borderline thing.

After this patch we should have a guarantee that the OOM killer will not
be block for unbounded amount of time for most cases.

8 years agomm, oom: move GFP_NOFS check to out_of_memory
Michal Hocko [Fri, 20 May 2016 00:13:09 +0000 (17:13 -0700)]
mm, oom: move GFP_NOFS check to out_of_memory

__alloc_pages_may_oom is the central place to decide when the
out_of_memory should be invoked.  This is a good approach for most
checks there because they are page allocator specific and the allocation
fails right after for all of them.

The notable exception is GFP_NOFS context which is faking
did_some_progress and keep the page allocator looping even though there
couldn't have been any progress from the OOM killer.  This patch doesn't
change this behavior because we are not ready to allow those allocation
requests to fail yet (and maybe we will face the reality that we will
never manage to safely fail these request).  Instead __GFP_FS check is
moved down to out_of_memory and prevent from OOM victim selection there.
There are two reasons for that

- OOM notifiers might release some memory even from this context
  as none of the registered notifier seems to be FS related
- this might help a dying thread to get an access to memory
          reserves and move on which will make the behavior more
          consistent with the case when the task gets killed from a
          different context.

Keep a comment in __alloc_pages_may_oom to make sure we do not forget
how GFP_NOFS is special and that we really want to do something about
it.

Note to the current oom_notifier users:

The observable difference for you is that oom notifiers cannot depend on
any fs locks because we could deadlock.  Not that this would be allowed
today because that would just lockup machine in most of the cases and
ruling out the OOM killer along the way.  Another difference is that
callbacks might be invoked sooner now because GFP_NOFS is a weaker
reclaim context and so there could be reclaimable memory which is just
not reachable now.  That would require GFP_NOFS only loads which are
really rare and more importantly the observable result would be dropping
of reconstructible object and potential performance drop which is not
such a big deal when we are struggling to fulfill other important
allocation requests.

    maintainers suggest to change the default in kernel or ...  to use
    tmpfiles.d to alter the policy (which looks like a hack to me):
        https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/2938

Here I suggest to add a config option to set the default value for the
policy and a kernel command line parameter to make the override.

This patch (of 2):

Introduce config option to set the default value for memory hotplug
onlining policy (/sys/devices/system/memory/auto_online_blocks).  The
reason one would want to turn this option on are to have early onlining
for hotpluggable memory available at boot and to not require any
userspace actions to make memory hotplug work.

arch: fix has_transparent_hugepage()

I've just discovered that the useful-sounding has_transparent_hugepage()
is actually an architecture-dependent minefield: on some arches it only
builds if CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE=y, on others it's also there when
not, but on some of those (arm and arm64) it then gives the wrong
answer; and on mips alone it's marked __init, which would crash if
called later (but so far it has not been called later).

Straighten this out: make it available to all configs, with a sensible
default in asm-generic/pgtable.h, removing its definitions from those
arches (arc, arm, arm64, sparc, tile) which are served by the default,
adding #define has_transparent_hugepage has_transparent_hugepage to
those (mips, powerpc, s390, x86) which need to override the default at
runtime, and removing the __init from mips (but maybe that kind of code
should be avoided after init: set a static variable the first time it's
called).

Its schedule_on_each_cpu() is probably too expensive just to fold into

Allow a write or a read to do the same: nothing to read, but "grep -h

0, hack in an "Invalid argument" and pr_warn() if a counter is negative
after the refresh - this helped to fix a misaccounting of
NR_ISOLATED_FILE in my migration code.

tmpfs: preliminary minor tidyups

Make a few cleanups in mm/shmem.c, before going on to complicate it.

shmem_alloc_page() will become more complicated: we can't afford to to
have that complication duplicated between a CONFIG_NUMA version and a
!CONFIG_NUMA version, so rearrange the #ifdef'ery there to yield a
single shmem_swapin() and a single shmem_alloc_page().

Yes, it's a shame to inflict the horrid pseudo-vma on non-NUMA
configurations, but eliminating it is a larger cleanup: I have an
alloc_pages_mpol() patchset not yet ready - mpol handling is subtle and
bug-prone, and changed yet again since my last version.

Move __SetPageLocked, __SetPageSwapBacked from shmem_getpage_gfp() to
shmem_alloc_page(): that SwapBacked flag will be useful in future, to
help to distinguish different cases appropriately.

And the SGP_DIRTY variant of SGP_CACHE is hard to understand and of
little use (IIRC it dates back to when shmem_getpage() returned the page
unlocked): kill it and do the necessary in shmem_file_read_iter().

But an arm64 build then complained that info may be uninitialized (where
shmem_getpage_gfp() deletes a freshly alloced page beyond eof), and
advancing to an "sgp <= SGP_CACHE" test jogged it back to reality.

not yet visible to other users (except speculative get_page_unless_zero-

That was part of a series in which Mel was focused on tmpfs profiles:
but almost all SetPageSwapBacked uses can be so optimized, with the same
justification.

Remove ClearPageSwapBacked from __read_swap_cache_async() error path:
it's not an error to free a page with PG_swapbacked set.

Follow a convention of __SetPageLocked, __SetPageSwapBacked instead of
doing it differently in different places; but that's for tidiness - if
the ordering actually mattered, we should not be using the __variants.

There's probably scope for further __SetPageFlags in other places, but
SwapBacked is the one I'm interested in at the moment.

reclaim was removed) that lru_size can be updated by -nr_taken once per
call to isolate_lru_pages(), instead of page by page.

Update it inside isolate_lru_pages(), or at its two callsites? I chose
to update it at the callsites, rearranging and grouping the updates by
nr_taken and nr_scanned together in both.

With one exception, mem_cgroup_update_lru_size(,lru,) is then used where
__mod_zone_page_state(,NR_LRU_BASE+lru,) is used; and we shall be adding
some more calls in a future commit.  Make the code a little smaller and
simpler by incorporating stat update in lru_size update.

The exception was move_active_pages_to_lru(), which aggregated the
pgmoved stat update separately from the individual lru_size updates; but
I still think this a simplification worth making.

However, the __mod_zone_page_state is not peculiar to mem_cgroups: so
better use the name update_lru_size, calls mem_cgroup_update_lru_size
when CONFIG_MEMCG.

power: add zone range overlapping check

There is a system thats node's pfns are overlapped as follows:

  -----pfn-------->
  N0 N1 N2 N0 N1 N2

Therefore, we need to care this overlapping when iterating pfn range.

mark_free_pages() iterates requested zone's pfn range and unset all
range's bitmap first.  And then it marks freepages in a zone to the
bitmap.  If there is an overlapping zone, above unset could clear
previous marked bit and reference to this bitmap in the future will
cause the problem.  To prevent it, this patch adds a zone check in
mark_free_pages().

mm/hugetlb: add same zone check in pfn_range_valid_gigantic()

This patchset deals with some problematic sites that iterate pfn ranges.

There is a system thats node's pfns are overlapped as follows:

  -----pfn-------->
  N0 N1 N2 N0 N1 N2

Therefore, we need to take care of this overlapping when iterating pfn
range.

I audit many iterating sites that uses pfn_valid(), pfn_valid_within(),
zone_start_pfn and etc.  and others looks safe to me.  This is a
preparation step for a new CMA implementation, ZONE_CMA
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/2/12/95), because it would be easily
overlapped with other zones.  But, zone overlap check is also needed for
the general case so I send it separately.

This patch (of 5):

alloc_gigantic_page() uses alloc_contig_range() and this requires that
the requested range is in a single zone.  To satisfy this requirement,
add this check to pfn_range_valid_gigantic().

8 years agomm, compaction: skip blocks where isolation fails in async direct compaction

mm, compaction: skip blocks where isolation fails in async direct compaction

The goal of direct compaction is to quickly make a high-order page
available for the pending allocation.  Within an aligned block of pages
of desired order, a single allocated page that cannot be isolated for
migration means that the block cannot fully merge to a buddy page that
would satisfy the allocation request.  Therefore we can reduce the
allocation stall by skipping the rest of the block immediately on
isolation failure.  For async compaction, this also means a higher
chance of succeeding until it detects contention.

We however shouldn't completely sacrifice the second objective of
compaction, which is to reduce overal long-term memory fragmentation.
As a compromise, perform the eager skipping only in direct async
compaction, while sync compaction (including kcompactd) remains
thorough.

Testing was done using stress-highalloc from mmtests, configured for
order-4 GFP_KERNEL allocations:

                                 4.6-rc1               4.6-rc1

  Success 3 Max         94.00 (  0.00%)       93.00 (  1.06%)

We can see that success rates are unaffected by the skipping.

  Direct pages reclaimed              163354      159505

Reduced direct reclaim was unintended, but could be explained by more
successful first attempt at (async) direct compaction, which is
attempted before the first reclaim attempt in __alloc_pages_slowpath().

mm, compaction: reduce spurious pcplist drains

Compaction drains the local pcplists each time migration scanner moves
away from a cc->order aligned block where it isolated pages for
migration, so that the pages freed by migrations can merge into higher
orders.

The detection is currently coarser than it could be.  The
cc->last_migrated_pfn variable should track the lowest pfn that was
isolated for migration.  But it is set to the pfn where
isolate_migratepages_block() starts scanning, which is typically the
first pfn of the pageblock.  There, the scanner might fail to isolate
several order-aligned blocks, and then isolate COMPACT_CLUSTER_MAX in
another block.  This would cause the pcplists drain to be performed,
although the scanner didn't yet finish the block where it isolated from.

This patch thus makes cc->last_migrated_pfn handling more accurate by
setting it to the pfn of an actually isolated page in
isolate_migratepages_block().  Although practical effects of this patch
are likely low, it arguably makes the intent of the code more obvious.
Also the next patch will make async direct compaction skip blocks more
aggressively, and draining pcplists due to skipped blocks is wasteful.

mm/hugetlb: introduce hugetlb_bad_size()

When any unsupported hugepage size is specified, 'hugepagesz=' and
'hugepages=' should be ignored during command line parsing until any
supported hugepage size is found.  But currently incorrect number of
hugepages are allocated when unsupported size is specified as it fails
to ignore the 'hugepages=' command.

Test case:

Note that this is specific to x86 architecture.

Boot the kernel with command line option 'hugepagesz=256M hugepages=X'.
After boot, dmesg output shows that X number of hugepages of the size 2M
is pre-allocated instead of 0.

So, to handle such command line options, introduce new routine
hugetlb_bad_size.  The routine hugetlb_bad_size sets the global variable
parsed_valid_hugepagesz.  We are using parsed_valid_hugepagesz to save
the state when unsupported hugepagesize is found so that we can ignore
the 'hugepages=' parameters after that and then reset the variable when
supported hugepage size is found.

The routine hugetlb_bad_size can be called while setting 'hugepagesz='
parameter in an architecture specific code.

mm/hugetlb: optimize minimum size (min_size) accounting

It was observed that minimum size accounting associated with the
hugetlbfs min_size mount option may not perform optimally and as
expected.  As huge pages/reservations are released from the filesystem
and given back to the global pools, they are reserved for subsequent
filesystem use as long as the subpool reserved count is less than
subpool minimum size.  It does not take into account used pages within
the filesystem.  The filesystem size limits are not exceeded and this is
technically not a bug.  However, better behavior would be to wait for
the number of used pages/reservations associated with the filesystem to
drop below the minimum size before taking reservations to satisfy
minimum size.

An optimization is also made to the hugepage_subpool_get_pages() routine
which is called when pages/reservations are allocated.  This does not
change behavior, but simply avoids the accounting if all reservations
have already been taken (subpool reserved count == 0).

include/linux: apply __malloc attribute

Attach the malloc attribute to a few allocation functions.  This helps
gcc generate better code by telling it that the return value doesn't
alias any existing pointers (which is even more valuable given the
pessimizations implied by -fno-strict-aliasing).

A simple example of what this allows gcc to do can be seen by looking at
the last part of drm_atomic_helper_plane_reset:

plane->state = kzalloc(sizeof(*plane->state), GFP_KERNEL);

if (plane->state) {
plane->state->plane = plane;
plane->state->rotation = BIT(DRM_ROTATE_0);
}

    48 85 c0                test   %rax,%rax

With this patch applied, the instruction at [*] is elided, since the

plane->state.

Rasmus Villemoes [Fri, 20 May 2016 00:10:52 +0000 (17:10 -0700)]
compiler.h: add support for malloc attribute

gcc as far back as at least 3.04 documents the function attribute
__malloc__.  Add a shorthand for attaching that to a function
declaration.  This was also suggested by Andi Kleen way back in 2002
[1], but didn't get applied, perhaps because gcc at that time generated
the exact same code with and without this attribute.

This attribute tells the compiler that the return value (if non-NULL)
can be assumed not to alias any other valid pointers at the time of the
call.

Please note that the documentation for a range of gcc versions (starting
from around 4.7) contained a somewhat confusing and self-contradicting
text:

  The malloc attribute is used to tell the compiler that a function may
  be treated as if any non-NULL pointer it returns cannot alias any other
  pointer valid when the function returns and *that the memory has
  undefined content*.  [...] Standard functions with this property include
  malloc and *calloc*.

(emphasis mine). The intended meaning has later been clarified [2]:

  This tells the compiler that a function is malloc-like, i.e., that the
  pointer P returned by the function cannot alias any other pointer valid
  when the function returns, and moreover no pointers to valid objects
  occur in any storage addressed by P.

What this means is that we can apply the attribute to kmalloc and
friends, and it is ok for the returned memory to have well-defined
contents (__GFP_ZERO).  But it is not ok to apply it to kmemdup(), nor
to other functions which both allocate and possibly initialize the
memory with existing pointers.  So unless someone is doing something
pretty perverted kstrdup() should also be a fine candidate.

much less stable.

For example this attack against SLUB (also applicable against SLAB)
would be affected:

  https://jon.oberheide.org/blog/2010/09/10/linux-kernel-can-slub-overflow/

Also, since v4.6 the freelist was moved at the end of the SLAB.  It
means a controllable heap is opened to new attacks not yet publicly
discussed.  A kernel heap overflow can be transformed to multiple
use-after-free.  This feature makes this type of attack harder too.

To generate entropy, we use get_random_bytes_arch because 0 bits of
entropy is available in the boot stage.  In the worse case this function
will fallback to the get_random_bytes sub API.  We also generate a shift
random number to shift pre-computed freelist for each new set of pages.

The config option name is not specific to the SLAB as this approach will
be extended to other allocators like SLUB.

Performance results highlighted no major changes:

Hackbench (running 90 10 times):

  After average: 0.0663 (-5.01%)

being the worse case scenario covered by freelist randomization.  New
slab pages are constantly being created on the 10000 allocations.
Variance should be mainly due to getting new pages every few

mm/slub.c: replace kick_all_cpus_sync() with synchronize_sched() in kmem_cache_shrink()

When we call __kmem_cache_shrink on memory cgroup removal, we need to
synchronize kmem_cache->cpu_partial update with put_cpu_partial that
might be running on other cpus.  Currently, we achieve that by using
kick_all_cpus_sync, which works as a system wide memory barrier.  Though
fast it is, this method has a flaw - it issues a lot of IPIs, which
might hurt high performance or real-time workloads.

To fix this, let's replace kick_all_cpus_sync with synchronize_sched.
Although the latter one may take much longer to finish, it shouldn't be
a problem in this particular case, because memory cgroups are destroyed
asynchronously from a workqueue so that no user visible effects should
be introduced.  OTOH, it will save us from excessive IPIs when someone
removes a cgroup.

Anyway, even if using synchronize_sched turns out to take too long, we
can always introduce a kind of __kmem_cache_shrink batching so that this
method would only be called once per one cgroup destruction (not per
each per memcg kmem cache as it is now).

mm/slab: lockless decision to grow cache

To check whether free objects exist or not precisely, we need to grab a
lock.  But, accuracy isn't that important because race window would be
even small and if there is too much free object, cache reaper would reap
it.  So, this patch makes the check for free object exisistence not to
hold a lock.  This will reduce lock contention in heavily allocation
case.

Note that until now, n->shared can be freed during the processing by
writing slabinfo, but, with some trick in this patch, we can access it
freely within interrupt disabled period.

Below is the result of concurrent allocation/free in slab allocation
benchmark made by Christoph a long time ago.  I make the output simpler.
The number shows cycle count during alloc/free respectively so less is
better.

  Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(32): Average=248/966

  Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(4096): Average=4742/2172

It shows that allocation performance decreases for the object size up to
128 and it may be due to extra checks in cache_alloc_refill().  But,
with considering improvement of free performance, net result looks the
same.  Result for other size class looks very promising, roughly, 50%
performance improvement.

Currently, determination to free a slab is done whenever each freed
object is put into the slab.  This has a following problem.

Assume free_limit = 10 and nr_free = 9.

Free happens as following sequence and nr_free changes as following.

free(become a free slab) free(not become a free slab) nr_free: 9 -> 10
(at first free) -> 11 (at second free)

If we try to check if we can free current slab or not on each object
free, we can't free any slab in this situation because current slab
isn't a free slab when nr_free exceed free_limit (at second free) even
if there is a free slab.

However, if we check it lastly, we can free 1 free slab.

This problem would cause to keep too much memory in the slab subsystem.
This patch try to fix it by checking number of free object after all
free work is done.  If there is free slab at that time, we can free slab
as much as possible so we keep free slab as minimal.

8 years agomm/slab: fix the theoretical race by holding proper lock

mm/slab: fix the theoretical race by holding proper lock

While processing concurrent allocation, SLAB could be contended a lot
because it did a lots of work with holding a lock.  This patchset try to
reduce the number of critical section to reduce lock contention.  Major
changes are lockless decision to allocate more slab and lockless cpu
cache refill from the newly allocated slab.

Below is the result of concurrent allocation/free in slab allocation
benchmark made by Christoph a long time ago.  I make the output simpler.
The number shows cycle count during alloc/free respectively so less is
better.

  * Before
  Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(32): Average=365/806
  Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(64): Average=452/690
  Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(128): Average=736/886
  Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(256): Average=1167/985
  Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(512): Average=2088/1125
  Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(1024): Average=4115/1184
  Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(2048): Average=8451/1748
  Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(4096): Average=16024/2048

  * After
  Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(32): Average=344/792
  Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(64): Average=347/882
  Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(128): Average=390/959

  Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(1024): Average=1295/1325
  Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(2048): Average=2513/1664
  Kmalloc N*alloc N*free(4096): Average=4742/2172

It shows that performance improves greatly (roughly more than 50%) for
the object class whose size is more than 128 bytes.

This patch (of 11):

If we don't hold neither the slab_mutex nor the node lock, node's shared
array cache could be freed and re-populated.  If __kmem_cache_shrink()
is called at the same time, it will call drain_array() with n->shared
without holding node lock so problem can happen.  This patch fix the
situation by holding the node lock before trying to drain the shared
array.

In addition, add a debug check to confirm that n->shared access race
doesn't exist.

8 years agodebugobjects: insulate non-fixup logic related to static obj from fixup callbacks
Du, Changbin [Fri, 20 May 2016 00:09:41 +0000 (17:09 -0700)]
debugobjects: insulate non-fixup logic related to static obj from fixup callbacks

When activating a static object we need make sure that the object is
tracked in the object tracker.  If it is a non-static object then the
activation is illegal.

In previous implementation, each subsystem need take care of this in
their fixup callbacks.  Actually we can put it into debugobjects core.
Thus we can save duplicated code, and have *pure* fixup callbacks.

To achieve this, a new callback "is_static_object" is introduced to let
the type specific code decide whether a object is static or not.  If
yes, we take it into object tracker, otherwise give warning and invoke
fixup callback.

This change has paassed debugobjects selftest, and I also do some test
with all debugobjects supports enabled.

At last, I have a concern about the fixups that can it change the object
which is in incorrect state on fixup? Because the 'addr' may not point
to any valid object if a non-static object is not tracked.  Then Change
such object can overwrite someone's memory and cause unexpected
behaviour.  For example, the timer_fixup_activate bind timer to function
stub_timer.

debugobjects: make fixup functions return bool instead of int

I am going to introduce debugobjects infrastructure to USB subsystem.
But before this, I found the code of debugobjects could be improved.
This patchset will make fixup functions return bool type instead of int.
Because fixup only need report success or no.  boolean is the 'real'
type.

This patch (of 7):

The object debugging infrastructure core provides some fixup callbacks
for the subsystem who use it.  These callbacks are called from the debug
code whenever a problem in debug_object_init is detected.  And
debugobjects core suppose them returns 1 when the fixup was successful,
otherwise 0.  So the return type is boolean.

A bad thing is that debug_object_fixup use the return value for
arithmetic operation.  It confused me that what is the reall return
type.

Reading over the whole code, I found some place do use the return value
incorrectly(see next patch).  So why use bool type instead?

8 years agoscripts/decode_stacktrace.sh: handle symbols in modules

scripts/decode_stacktrace.sh: handle symbols in modules

scripts/decode_stacktrace.sh presently displays module symbols as

func+0x0ff/0x5153 [module]

Add a third argument: the pathname of a directory where the script
should look for the file module.ko so that the output appears as

func (foo/bar.c:123) module

Without the argument or if the module file isn't found the script prints
such symbols as is without decoding.

8 years agotime: remove timespec_add_safe()

time: remove timespec_add_safe()

All references to timespec_add_safe() now use timespec64_add_safe().

The plan is to replace struct timespec references with struct timespec64
throughout the kernel as timespec is not y2038 safe.

Drop timespec_add_safe() and use timespec64_add_safe() for all
architectures.

8 years agofs: poll/select/recvmmsg: use timespec64 for timeout events

fs: poll/select/recvmmsg: use timespec64 for timeout events

struct timespec is not y2038 safe.  Even though timespec might be
sufficient to represent timeouts, use struct timespec64 here as the plan
is to get rid of all timespec reference in the kernel.

The patch transitions the common functions: poll_select_set_timeout()
and select_estimate_accuracy() to use timespec64.  And, all the syscalls
that use these functions are transitioned in the same patch.

The restart block parameters for poll uses monotonic time.  Use
timespec64 here as well to assign timeout value.  This parameter in the
restart block need not change because this only holds the monotonic
timestamp at which timeout should occur.  And, unsigned long data type
should be big enough for this timestamp.

The system call interfaces will be handled in a separate series.

Compat interfaces need not change as timespec64 is an alias to struct
timespec on a 64 bit system.

8 years agotime: add missing implementation for timespec64_add_safe()
Deepa Dinamani [Fri, 20 May 2016 00:09:02 +0000 (17:09 -0700)]
time: add missing implementation for timespec64_add_safe()

timespec64_add_safe() has been defined in time64.h for 64 bit systems.
But, 32 bit systems only have an extern function prototype defined.
Provide a definition for the above function.

The function will be necessary as part of y2038 changes.  struct
timespec is not y2038 safe.  All references to timespec will be replaced
by struct timespec64.  The function is meant to be a replacement for
timespec_add_safe().

The implementation is similar to timespec_add_safe().
