ARM: kprobes: Optimise emulation of LDM and STM
This patch improves the performance of LDM and STM instruction
emulation. This is desirable because.
- jprobes and kretprobes probe the first instruction in a function and,
when the frame pointer is omitted, this instruction is often a STM
used to push registers onto the stack.
- The STM and LDM instructions are common in the body and tail of
functions.
- At the same time as being a common instruction form, they also have
one of the slowest and most complicated simulation routines.
The approach taken to optimisation is to use emulation rather than
simulation, that is, a modified form of the instruction is run with
an appropriate register context.
Benchmarking on an OMAP3530 shows the optimised emulation is between 2
and 3 times faster than the simulation routines. On a Kirkwood based
device the relative performance was very significantly better than this.

This patch changes the behavior of kprobes on ARM so that:
Kprobes on conditional instructions don't trigger when the

they don't trigger in the branch not taken case.
Rationale:
When probes are placed onto conditionally executed instructions in a
Thumb IT block, they may not fire if the condition is not met. This
is because we use invalid instructions for breakpoints and "it is
IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED whether the instruction executes as a NOP or
causes an Undefined Instruction exception". Therefore, for consistency,
we will ignore all probes on any conditional instructions when the
condition is false. Alternative solutions seem to be too complex to
implement or inconsistent.

deleted sysdev_suspend(), which was being relied on to call

called, wake interrupts that are pending when suspend is

mm: vmscan: only read new_classzone_idx from pgdat when reclaiming successfully
During allocator-intensive workloads, kswapd will be woken frequently
causing free memory to oscillate between the high and min watermark. This
is expected behaviour. Unfortunately, if the highest zone is small, a
problem occurs.
When balance_pgdat() returns, it may be at a lower classzone_idx than it
started because the highest zone was unreclaimable. Before checking if it
should go to sleep though, it checks pgdat->classzone_idx which when there
is no other activity will be MAX_NR_ZONES-1. It interprets this as it has
been woken up while reclaiming, skips scheduling and reclaims again. As
there is no useful reclaim work to do, it enters into a loop of shrinking
slab consuming loads of CPU until the highest zone becomes reclaimable for
a long period of time.
There are two problems here. 1) If the returned classzone or order is
lower, it'll continue reclaiming without scheduling. 2) if the highest
zone was marked unreclaimable but balance_pgdat() returns immediately at
DEF_PRIORITY, the new lower classzone is not communicated back to kswapd()
for sleeping.
This patch does two things that are related. If the end_zone is
unreclaimable, this information is communicated back. Second, if the
classzone or order was reduced due to failing to reclaim, new information
is not read from pgdat and instead an attempt is made to go to sleep. Due
to this, it is also necessary that pgdat->classzone_idx be initialised
each time to pgdat->nr_zones - 1 to avoid re-reads being interpreted as
wakeups.

mm: vmscan: evaluate the watermarks against the correct classzone
When deciding if kswapd is sleeping prematurely, the classzone is taken
into account but this is different to what balance_pgdat() and the
allocator are doing. Specifically, the DMA zone will be checked based on
the classzone used when waking kswapd which could be for a GFP_KERNEL or
GFP_HIGHMEM request. The lowmem reserve limit kicks in, the watermark is
not met and kswapd thinks it's sleeping prematurely keeping kswapd awake in
error.

mm: vmscan: do not apply pressure to slab if we are not applying pressure to zone
During allocator-intensive workloads, kswapd will be woken frequently
causing free memory to oscillate between the high and min watermark. This
is expected behaviour.
When kswapd applies pressure to zones during node balancing, it checks if
the zone is above a high+balance_gap threshold. If it is, it does not
apply pressure but it unconditionally shrinks slab on a global basis which
is excessive. In the event kswapd is being kept awake due to a high small
unreclaimable zone, it skips zone shrinking but still calls shrink_slab().
Once pressure has been applied, the check for zone being unreclaimable is
being made before the check is made if all_unreclaimable should be set.
This miss of unreclaimable can cause has_under_min_watermark_zone to be
set due to an unreclaimable zone preventing kswapd backing off on
congestion_wait().

mm: vmscan: correct check for kswapd sleeping in sleeping_prematurely
During allocator-intensive workloads, kswapd will be woken frequently
causing free memory to oscillate between the high and min watermark. This
is expected behaviour. Unfortunately, if the highest zone is small, a
problem occurs.
This seems to happen most with recent sandybridge laptops but it's
probably a co-incidence as some of these laptops just happen to have a
small Normal zone. The reproduction case is almost always during copying
large files that kswapd pegs at 100% CPU until the file is deleted or
cache is dropped.
The problem is mostly down to sleeping_prematurely() keeping kswapd awake
when the highest zone is small and unreclaimable and compounded by the
fact we shrink slabs even when not shrinking zones causing a lot of time
to be spent in shrinkers and a lot of memory to be reclaimed.
Patch 1 corrects sleeping_prematurely to check the zones matching
the classzone_idx instead of all zones.
Patch 2 avoids shrinking slab when we are not shrinking a zone.
Patch 3 notes that sleeping_prematurely is checking lower zones against
a high classzone which is not what allocators or balance_pgdat()
is doing leading to an artifical belief that kswapd should be
still awake.
Patch 4 notes that when balance_pgdat() gives up on a high zone that the
decision is not communicated to sleeping_prematurely()
This problem affects 2.6.38.8 for certain and is expected to affect 2.6.39
and 3.0-rc4 as well. If accepted, they need to go to -stable to be picked
up by distros and this series is against 3.0-rc4. I've cc'd people that
reported similar problems recently to see if they still suffer from the
problem and if this fixes it.
This patch: correct the check for kswapd sleeping in sleeping_prematurely()
During allocator-intensive workloads, kswapd will be woken frequently
causing free memory to oscillate between the high and min watermark. This
is expected behaviour.
A problem occurs if the highest zone is small. balance_pgdat() only
considers unreclaimable zones when priority is DEF_PRIORITY but
sleeping_prematurely considers all zones. It's possible for this sequence
to occur
1. kswapd wakes up and enters balance_pgdat()
2. At DEF_PRIORITY, marks highest zone unreclaimable
3. At DEF_PRIORITY-1, ignores highest zone setting end_zone
4. At DEF_PRIORITY-1, calls shrink_slab freeing memory from
highest zone, clearing all_unreclaimable. Highest zone
is still unbalanced
5. kswapd returns and calls sleeping_prematurely
6. sleeping_prematurely looks at *all* zones, not just the ones
being considered by balance_pgdat. The highest small zone
has all_unreclaimable cleared but the zone is not
balanced. all_zones_ok is false so kswapd stays awake
This patch corrects the behaviour of sleeping_prematurely to check the
zones balance_pgdat() checked.
