c214270 oom_ajd: don't use WARN_ONCE, just use printk_once WARN_ONCE() is very annoying, in that it shows the stack trace that we don't care about at all, and also triggers various user-level "kernel oopsed" logic that we really don't care about. And it's not like the user can do anything about the applications (sshd) in question, it's a distro issue.

1eb19a1 lib/sha1: use the git implementation of SHA-1 For ChromiumOS, we use SHA-1 to verify the integrity of the root filesystem. The speed of the kernel sha-1 implementation has a major impact on our boot performance. To improve boot performance, we investigated using the heavily optimized sha-1 implementation used in git. With the git sha-1 implementation, we see a 11.7% improvement in boot time. 10 reboots, remove slowest/fastest. Before: Mean: 6.58 seconds Stdev: 0.14 After (with git sha-1, this patch): Mean: 5.89 seconds Stdev: 0.07 The other cool thing about the git SHA-1 implementation is that it only needs 64 bytes of stack for the workspace while the original kernel implementation needed 320 bytes.

c71d8eb net: Fix security_socket_sendmsg() bypass problem. The sendmmsg() introduced by commit 228e548e "net: Add sendmmsg socket system call" is capable of sending to multiple different destination addresses. SMACK is using destination's address for checking sendmsg() permission. However, security_socket_sendmsg() is called for only once even if multiple different destination addresses are passed to sendmmsg(). Therefore, we need to call security_socket_sendmsg() for each destination address rather than only the first destination address. Since calling security_socket_sendmsg() every time when only single destination address was passed to sendmmsg() is a waste of time, omit calling security_socket_sendmsg() unless destination address of previous datagram and that of current datagram differs.

98382f4 net: Cap number of elements for sendmmsg To limit the amount of time we can spend in sendmmsg, cap the number of elements to UIO_MAXIOV (currently 1024). For error handling an application using sendmmsg needs to retry at the first unsent message, so capping is simpler and requires less application logic than returning EINVAL.

728ffb8 net: sendmmsg should only return an error if no messages were sent sendmmsg uses a similar error return strategy as recvmmsg but it turns out to be a confusing way to communicate errors. The current code stores the error code away and returns it on the next sendmmsg call. This means a call with completely valid arguments could get an error from a previous call. Change things so we only return an error if no datagrams could be sent. If less than the requested number of messages were sent, the application must retry starting at the first failed one and if the problem is persistent the error will be returned. This matches the behaviour of other syscalls like read/write - it is not an error if less than the requested number of elements are sent.

140d0b2 Do 'shm_init_ns()' in an early pure_initcall This isn't really critical any more, since other patches (commit 298507d4d2cf: "shm: optimize exit_shm()") have caused us to not actually need to touch the rw_mutex unless there are actual shm segments associated with the namespace, but we really should do tne shm_init_ns() earlier than we do now. This, together with commit 288d5abec831 ("Boot up with usermodehelper disabled") will mean that we really do initialize the initial ipc namespace data structure before we run any tasks.

e384fab drm/radeon: Extended DDC Probing for Connectors with Improperly Wired DDC Lines (here: Asus M2A-VM HDMI) Some integrated ATI Radeon chipset implementations with add-on HDMI card (e. g. Asus M2A-VM HDMI) indicate the availability of a DDC even when the add-on card is not plugged in or HDMI is disabled in BIOS setup. In this case, drm_get_edid() and drm_edid_block_valid() periodically dump data and kernel errors into system log files and onto terminals. For these connectors DDC probing is extended by a check for a correct EDID header. Only in case a valid EDID header is also found, the (HDMI or DVI) connector will be used by the Radeon driver. This prevents the kernel driver from useless flooding of logs and terminal sessions with EDID dumps and error messages. This patch adds a flag 'requires_extended_probe' to the radeon_connector structure. In function radeon_connector_needs_extended_probe() this flag can be set on a chipset family/vendor/connector type specific basis. In addition, function radeon_ddc_probe() has been adapted to perform extended DDC probing if required by the connector's flag.

945a515 intel drivers: repair missing flush operations after review of all intel drivers, found several instances where drivers had the incorrect pattern of: memory mapped write(); delay(); which should always be: memory mapped write(); write flush(); /* aka memory mapped read */ delay(); explanation: The reason for including the flush is that writes can be held (posted) in PCI/PCIe bridges, but the read always has to complete synchronously and therefore has to flush all pending writes to a device. If a write is held and followed by a delay, the delay means nothing because the write may not have reached hardware (maybe even not until the next read) Signed-off-by: Jesse Brandeburg <jesse.brandeburg@intel.com> Tested-by: Aaron Brown <aaron.f.brown@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com> 04 August 2011, 11:59:07 UTC

288d5ab Boot up with usermodehelper disabled The core device layer sends tons of uevent notifications for each device it finds, and if the kernel has been built with a non-empty CONFIG_UEVENT_HELPER_PATH that will make us try to execute the usermode helper binary for all these events very early in the boot. Not only won't the root filesystem even be mounted at that point, we literally won't have necessarily even initialized all the process handling data structures at that point, which causes no end of silly problems even when the usermode helper doesn't actually succeed in executing. So just use our existing infrastructure to disable the usermodehelpers to make the kernel start out with them disabled. We enable them when we've at least initialized stuff a bit.

e504f3f tmpfs radix_tree: locate_item to speed up swapoff We have already acknowledged that swapoff of a tmpfs file is slower than it was before conversion to the generic radix_tree: a little slower there will be acceptable, if the hotter paths are faster. But it was a shock to find swapoff of a 500MB file 20 times slower on my laptop, taking 10 minutes; and at that rate it significantly slows down my testing. Now, most of that turned out to be overhead from PROVE_LOCKING and PROVE_RCU: without those it was only 4 times slower than before; and more realistic tests on other machines don't fare as badly. I've tried a number of things to improve it, including tagging the swap entries, then doing lookup by tag: I'd expected that to halve the time, but in practice it's erratic, and often counter-productive. The only change I've so far found to make a consistent improvement, is to short-circuit the way we go back and forth, gang lookup packing entries into the array supplied, then shmem scanning that array for the target entry. Scanning in place doubles the speed, so it's now only twice as slow as before (or three times slower when the PROVEs are on). So, add radix_tree_locate_item() as an expedient, once-off, single-caller hack to do the lookup directly in place. #ifdef it on CONFIG_SHMEM and CONFIG_SWAP, as much to document its limited applicability as save space in other configurations. And, sadly, #include sched.h for cond_resched().

69f07ec tmpfs: use kmemdup for short symlinks But we've not yet removed the old swp_entry_t i_direct[16] from shmem_inode_info. That's because it was still being shared with the inline symlink. Remove it now (saving 64 or 128 bytes from shmem inode size), and use kmemdup() for short symlinks, say, those up to 128 bytes. I wonder why mpol_free_shared_policy() is done in shmem_destroy_inode() rather than shmem_evict_inode(), where we usually do such freeing? I guess it doesn't matter, and I'm not into NUMA mpol testing right now.

6922c0c tmpfs: convert shmem_writepage and enable swap Convert shmem_writepage() to use shmem_delete_from_page_cache() to use shmem_radix_tree_replace() to substitute swap entry for page pointer atomically in the radix tree. As with shmem_add_to_page_cache(), it's not entirely satisfactory to be copying such code from delete_from_swap_cache, but again judged easier to sell than making its other callers go through the extras. Remove the toy implementation's shmem_put_swap() and shmem_get_swap(), now unreferenced, and the hack to disable swap: it's now good to go. The way things have worked out, info->lock no longer helps to guard the shmem_swaplist: we increment swapped under shmem_swaplist_mutex only. That global mutex exclusion between shmem_writepage() and shmem_unuse() is not pretty, and we ought to find another way; but it's been forced on us by recent race discoveries, not a consequence of this patchset. And what has become of the WARN_ON_ONCE(1) free_swap_and_cache() if a swap entry was found already present?

aa3b189 tmpfs: convert mem_cgroup shmem to radix-swap Remove mem_cgroup_shmem_charge_fallback(): it was only required when we had to move swappage to filecache with GFP_NOWAIT. Remove the GFP_NOWAIT special case from mem_cgroup_cache_charge(), by moving its call out from shmem_add_to_page_cache() to two of thats three callers. But leave it doing mem_cgroup_uncharge_cache_page() on error: although asymmetrical, it's easier for all 3 callers to handle. These two changes would also be appropriate if anyone were to start using shmem_read_mapping_page_gfp() with GFP_NOWAIT. Remove mem_cgroup_get_shmem_target(): mc_handle_file_pte() can test radix_tree_exceptional_entry() to get what it needs for itself.

54af604 tmpfs: convert shmem_getpage_gfp to radix-swap Convert shmem_getpage_gfp(), the engine-room of shmem, to expect page or swap entry returned from radix tree by find_lock_page(). Whereas the repetitive old method proceeded mainly under info->lock, dropping and repeating whenever one of the conditions needed was not met, now we can proceed without it, leaving shmem_add_to_page_cache() to check for a race. This way there is no need to preallocate a page, no need for an early radix_tree_preload(), no need for mem_cgroup_shmem_charge_fallback(). Move the error unwinding down to the bottom instead of repeating it throughout. ENOSPC handling is a little different from before: there is no longer any race between find_lock_page() and finding swap, but we can arrive at ENOSPC before calling shmem_recalc_inode(), which might occasionally discover freed space. Be stricter to check i_size before returning. info->lock is used for little but alloced, swapped, i_blocks updates. Move i_blocks updates out from under the max_blocks check, so even an unlimited size=0 mount can show accurate du.

46f65ec tmpfs: convert shmem_unuse_inode to radix-swap Convert shmem_unuse_inode() to use a lockless gang lookup of the radix tree, searching for matching swap. This is somewhat slower than the old method: because of repeated radix tree descents, because of copying entries up, but probably most because the old method noted and skipped once a vector page was cleared of swap. Perhaps we can devise a use of radix tree tagging to achieve that later. shmem_add_to_page_cache() uses shmem_radix_tree_replace() to compensate for the lockless lookup by checking that the expected entry is in place, under lock. It is not very satisfactory to be copying this much from add_to_page_cache_locked(), but I think easier to sell than insisting that every caller of add_to_page_cache*() go through the extras.

7a5d0fb tmpfs: convert shmem_truncate_range to radix-swap Disable the toy swapping implementation in shmem_writepage() - it's hard to support two schemes at once - and convert shmem_truncate_range() to a lockless gang lookup of swap entries along with pages, freeing both. Since the second loop tightens its noose until all entries of either kind have been squeezed out (and we shall make sure that there's not an instant when neither is visible), there is no longer a need for yet another pass below. shmem_radix_tree_replace() compensates for the lockless lookup by checking that the expected entry is in place, under lock, before replacing it. Here it just deletes, but will be used in later patches to substitute swap entry for page or page for swap entry.

285b2c4 tmpfs: demolish old swap vector support The maximum size of a shmem/tmpfs file has been limited by the maximum size of its triple-indirect swap vector. With 4kB page size, maximum filesize was just over 2TB on a 32-bit kernel, but sadly one eighth of that on a 64-bit kernel. (With 8kB page size, maximum filesize was just over 4TB on a 64-bit kernel, but 16TB on a 32-bit kernel, MAX_LFS_FILESIZE being then more restrictive than swap vector layout.) It's a shame that tmpfs should be more restrictive than ramfs, and this limitation has now been noticed. Add another level to the swap vector? No, it became obscure and hard to maintain, once I complicated it to make use of highmem pages nine years ago: better choose another way. Surely, if 2.4 had had the radix tree pagecache introduced in 2.5, then tmpfs would never have invented its own peculiar radix tree: we would have fitted swap entries into the common radix tree instead, in much the same way as we fit swap entries into page tables. And why should each file have a separate radix tree for its pages and for its swap entries? The swap entries are required precisely where and when the pages are not. We want to put them together in a single radix tree: which can then avoid much of the locking which was needed to prevent them from being exchanged underneath us. This also avoids the waste of memory devoted to swap vectors, first in the shmem_inode itself, then at least two more pages once a file grew beyond 16 data pages (pages accounted by df and du, but not by memcg). Allocated upfront, to avoid allocation when under swapping pressure, but pure waste when CONFIG_SWAP is not set - I have never spattered around the ifdefs to prevent that, preferring this move to sharing the common radix tree instead. There are three downsides to sharing the radix tree. One, that it binds tmpfs more tightly to the rest of mm, either requiring knowledge of swap entries in radix tree there, or duplication of its code here in shmem.c. I believe that the simplications and memory savings (and probable higher performance, not yet measured) justify that. Two, that on HIGHMEM systems with SWAP enabled, it's the lowmem radix nodes that cannot be freed under memory pressure - whereas before it was the less precious highmem swap vector pages that could not be freed. I'm hoping that 64-bit has now been accessible for long enough, that the highmem argument has grown much less persuasive. Three, that swapoff is slower than it used to be on tmpfs files, since it's using a simple generic mechanism not tailored to it: I find this noticeable, and shall want to improve, but maybe nobody else will notice. So... now remove most of the old swap vector code from shmem.c. But, for the moment, keep the simple i_direct vector of 16 pages, with simple accessors shmem_put_swap() and shmem_get_swap(), as a toy implementation to help mark where swap needs to be handled in subsequent patches.

a2c16d6 mm: let swap use exceptional entries If swap entries are to be stored along with struct page pointers in a radix tree, they need to be distinguished as exceptional entries. Most of the handling of swap entries in radix tree will be contained in shmem.c, but a few functions in filemap.c's common code need to check for their appearance: find_get_page(), find_lock_page(), find_get_pages() and find_get_pages_contig(). So as not to slow their fast paths, tuck those checks inside the existing checks for unlikely radix_tree_deref_slot(); except for find_lock_page(), where it is an added test. And make it a BUG in find_get_pages_tag(), which is not applied to tmpfs files. A part of the reason for eliminating shmem_readpage() earlier, was to minimize the places where common code would need to allow for swap entries. The swp_entry_t known to swapfile.c must be massaged into a slightly different form when stored in the radix tree, just as it gets massaged into a pte_t when stored in page tables. In an i386 kernel this limits its information (type and page offset) to 30 bits: given 32 "types" of swapfile and 4kB pagesize, that's a maximum swapfile size of 128GB. Which is less than the 512GB we previously allowed with X86_PAE (where the swap entry can occupy the entire upper 32 bits of a pte_t), but not a new limitation on 32-bit without PAE; and there's not a new limitation on 64-bit (where swap filesize is already limited to 16TB by a 32-bit page offset). Thirty areas of 128GB is probably still enough swap for a 64GB 32-bit machine. Provide swp_to_radix_entry() and radix_to_swp_entry() conversions, and enforce filesize limit in read_swap_header(), just as for ptes.

6328650 radix_tree: exceptional entries and indices A patchset to extend tmpfs to MAX_LFS_FILESIZE by abandoning its peculiar swap vector, instead keeping a file's swap entries in the same radix tree as its struct page pointers: thus saving memory, and simplifying its code and locking. This patch: The radix_tree is used by several subsystems for different purposes. A major use is to store the struct page pointers of a file's pagecache for memory management. But what if mm wanted to store something other than page pointers there too? The low bit of a radix_tree entry is already used to denote an indirect pointer, for internal use, and the unlikely radix_tree_deref_retry() case. Define the next bit as denoting an exceptional entry, and supply inline functions radix_tree_exception() to return non-0 in either unlikely case, and radix_tree_exceptional_entry() to return non-0 in the second case. If a subsystem already uses radix_tree with that bit set, no problem: it does not affect internal workings at all, but is defined for the convenience of those storing well-aligned pointers in the radix_tree. The radix_tree_gang_lookups have an implicit assumption that the caller can deduce the offset of each entry returned e.g. by the page->index of a struct page. But that may not be feasible for some kinds of item to be stored there. radix_tree_gang_lookup_slot() allow for an optional indices argument, output array in which to return those offsets. The same could be added to other radix_tree_gang_lookups, but for now keep it to the only one for which we need it.
