dma-mapping: sparc: unify 32bit and 64bit dma_set_mask

This patchset transforms the PCI DMA API into the generic device model.
It's one of the reasons why we introduced the generic DMA API long ago;
driver writers are always able to use the generic DMA API with any bus
instead of using bus specific DMA APIs such as pci_map_single,
sbus_map_single, etc (only two bus specific APIs exist now; pci and ssb).

Some of the PCI DMA API are already implented on the top of the generic
DMA API (include/asm-generic/pci-dma-compat.h).  But there are some
exceptions.  This patchset finishes the transformation.

This patch:

sparc has two dma_set_mask implementations for 32bit and 64bit.  They are
same except for the error returned value.  We can safely unify them since
the error returned value doesn't matter as long as it is negative (as
DMA-API.txt describes).

This patch also changes dma_set_mask not to call
pci_set_dma_mask. Instead, dma_set_mask does the same thing that
pci_set_dma_mask does. This change enables ut to change
pci_set_dma_mask to call dma_set_mask; we can implement
pci_set_dma_mask as pci-dma-compat.h does.

pci-dma: add include/linux/pci-dma.h

This patch adds include/linux/pci-dma.h that defines the pci_unmap state
API:

DECLARE_PCI_UNMAP_ADDR(ADDR_NAME)
DECLARE_PCI_UNMAP_LEN(LEN_NAME)
pci_unmap_addr(PTR, ADDR_NAME)
pci_unmap_addr_set(PTR, ADDR_NAME, VAL)
pci_unmap_len(PTR, LEN_NAME)
pci_unmap_len_set(PTR, LEN_NAME, VAL)

This enables us to remove lots of the duplication in architecture
implementations since there are only two ways to define the API.

If architectures define CONFIG_NEED_DMA_MAP_STATE, they get the real
definition of pci_unmap state API.  If not, they get the noop definition.

In the long term, it's better to replace the API with the generic device
model API such as DECLARE_DMA_UNMAP_ADDR.  We can map the API to the
generic one (like dma-mapping-compat.h does).  This patch also makes the
migration process easier.  We can remove this file after the migration.

It might be simpler to add the API to include/linux/pci.h but looks it's
already too large.  We'll remove pci-dma.h after finishing moving to the
generic device model.  So I put the API to a separate file.

already do though).  I made it clear that the sync_single API can do a
partial sync but the sync_sg API can't.

We could do a partial sync with the sync_sg API too, however, it's
difficult for driver writers to correctly use the sync_sg API for a
partial sync since the scatterlists passed in to the mapping API can't be
modified.  It's unlikely that driver writers want to do a partial sync
with the sync_sg API (because the sync_sg API are usually used for block
drivers).  So I think that it's better to forbid a partial sync with the

- Use 16-bit PCI config cycles to access MCHSCRB register
    e7320/7520/e7525 docs say register is 16bits wide, i3100 says 8.  I
    tested 16bits on the i3100 to be safe.
- Recalcuate and round actual scrub rates

Knowning which specific data or ECC line caused an error can be useful in

pins, etc.

Note that this feature is only currently enabled for 64-bit wide data
buses, 32-bit wide bus support should be added.

I don't have any 32-bit wide systems to test on.  If someone has one and
is willing to give this patch a shot with the check for a 64-bit data bus

14 years agoptrace: move user_enable_single_step & co prototypes to linux/ptrace.h
Christoph Hellwig [Wed, 10 Mar 2010 23:22:46 +0000 (15:22 -0800)]
ptrace: move user_enable_single_step & co prototypes to linux/ptrace.h

While in theory user_enable_single_step/user_disable_single_step/
user_enable_blockstep could also be provided as an inline or macro there's
no good reason to do so, and having the prototype in one places keeps code
size and confusion down.

Roland said:

  The original thought there was that user_enable_single_step() et al
  might well be only an instruction or three on a sane machine (as if we
  have any of those!), and since there is only one call site inlining
  would be beneficial.  But I agree that there is no strong reason to care
  about inlining it.

  As to the arch changes, there is only one thought I'd add to the
  record.  It was always my thinking that for an arch where
  PTRACE_SINGLESTEP does text-modifying breakpoint insertion,
  user_enable_single_step() should not be provided.  That is,
  arch_has_single_step()=>true means that there is an arch facility with
  "pure" semantics that does not have any unexpected side effects.
  Inserting a breakpoint might do very unexpected strange things in
  multi-threaded situations.  Aside from that, it is a peculiar side
  effect that user_{enable,disable}_single_step() should cause COW
  de-sharing of text pages and so forth.  For PTRACE_SINGLESTEP, all these
  peculiarities are the status quo ante for that arch, so having
  arch_ptrace() itself do those is one thing.  But for building other
  things in the future, it is nicer to have a uniform "pure" semantics
  that arch-independent code can expect.

  OTOH, all such arch issues are really up to the arch maintainer.  As
  of today, there is nothing but ptrace using user_enable_single_step() et
  al so it's a distinction without a practical difference.  If/when there
  are other facilities that use user_enable_single_step() and might care,
  the affected arch's can revisit the question when someone cares about
  the quality of the arch support for said new facility.

memcg: fix oom kill behavior

In current page-fault code,

handle_mm_fault()
-> ...
-> mem_cgroup_charge()
-> map page or handle error.
-> check return code.

If page fault's return code is VM_FAULT_OOM, page_fault_out_of_memory() is
called.  But if it's caused by memcg, OOM should have been already
invoked.

Then, I added a patch: a636b327f731143ccc544b966cfd8de6cb6d72c6.  That
patch records last_oom_jiffies for memcg's sub-hierarchy and prevents
page_fault_out_of_memory from being invoked in near future.

But Nishimura-san reported that check by jiffies is not enough when the
system is terribly heavy.

This patch changes memcg's oom logic as.
 * If memcg causes OOM-kill, continue to retry.
 * remove jiffies check which is used now.
 * add memcg-oom-lock which works like perzone oom lock.
 * If current is killed(as a process), bypass charge.

Something more sophisticated can be added but this pactch does
fundamental things.
TODO:
 - add oom notifier
 - add permemcg disable-oom-kill flag and freezer at oom.
 - more chances for wake up oom waiter (when changing memory limit etc..)

cgroups: fix race between userspace and kernelspace

Notify userspace about cgroup removing only after rmdir of cgroup
directory to avoid race between userspace and kernelspace.

eventfd are used to notify about two types of event:
 - control file-specific, like crossing memory threshold;
 - cgroup removing.

To understand what really happen, userspace can check if the cgroup still
exists.  To avoid race beetween userspace and kernelspace we have to
notify userspace about cgroup removing only after rmdir of cgroup
directory.

14 years agomemcg: handle panic_on_oom=always case

memcg: handle panic_on_oom=always case

Presently, if panic_on_oom=2, the whole system panics even if the oom
happend in some special situation (as cpuset, mempolicy....).  Then,
panic_on_oom=2 means painc_on_oom_always.

Now, memcg doesn't check panic_on_oom flag. This patch adds a check.

BTW, how it's useful ?

kdump+panic_on_oom=2 is the last tool to investigate what happens in
oom-ed system.  When a task is killed, the sysytem recovers and there will
be few hint to know what happnes.  In mission critical system, oom should
never happen.  Then, panic_on_oom=2+kdump is useful to avoid next OOM by
knowing precise information via snapshot.

TODO:
 - For memcg, it's for isolate system's memory usage, oom-notiifer and
   freeze_at_oom (or rest_at_oom) should be implemented. Then, management
   daemon can do similar jobs (as kdump) or taking snapshot per cgroup.

14 years agomemcg : share event counter rather than duplicate
KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki [Wed, 10 Mar 2010 23:22:31 +0000 (15:22 -0800)]
memcg : share event counter rather than duplicate

Memcg has 2 eventcountes which counts "the same" event.  Just usages are
different from each other.  This patch tries to reduce event counter.

Now logic uses "only increment, no reset" counter and masks for each
checks.  Softlimit chesk was done per 1000 evetns.  So, the similar check
can be done by !(new_counter & 0x3ff).  Threshold check was done per 100
events.  So, the similar check can be done by (!new_counter & 0x7f)

ALL event checks are done right after EVENT percpu counter is updated.

memcg: update threshold and softlimit at commit

Presently, move_task does "batched" precharge.  Because res_counter or
css's refcnt are not-scalable jobs for memcg, try_charge_()..  tend to be
done in batched manner if allowed.

Now, softlimit and threshold check their event counter in try_charge, but
the charge is not a per-page event.  And event counter is not updated at
charge().  Moreover, precharge doesn't pass "page" to try_charge() and
softlimit tree will be never updated until uncharge() causes an event."

So the best place to check the event counter is commit_charge().  This is
per-page event by its nature.  This patch move checks to there.

14 years agomemcg: use generic percpu instead of private implementation

memcg: use generic percpu instead of private implementation

When per-cpu counter for memcg was implemneted, dynamic percpu allocator
was not very good.  But now, we have good one and useful macros.  This
patch replaces memcg's private percpu counter implementation with generic
dynamic percpu allocator.

The benefits are
- We can remove private implementation.
- The counters will be NUMA-aware. (Current one is not...)
- This patch makes sizeof struct mem_cgroup smaller. Then,
  struct mem_cgroup may be fit in page size on small config.
        - About basic performance aspects, see below.

 [Before]
 # size mm/memcontrol.o

   61.005373262  seconds time elapsed   ( +-   0.004% )

 Then cache-miss/page fault = 13.14

 [After]
 #size mm/memcontrol.o
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
  23913    2528    4132   30573    776d mm/memcontrol.o

   61.004615021  seconds time elapsed   ( +-   0.004% )

  Then cache-miss/page fault = 12.22

 Text size is reduced.
 This performance improvement is not big and will be invisible in real world
 applications. But this result shows this patch has some good effect even
 on (small) SMP.

Here is a test program I used.

 1. fork() processes on each cpus.
 2. do page fault repeatedly on each process.
 3. after 60secs, kill all childredn and exit.

(3 is necessary for getting stable data, this is improvement from previous one.)
