sched: Prevent interactions with throttled entities
From the perspective of load-balance and shares distribution, throttled
entities should be invisible.
However, both of these operations work on 'active' lists and are not
inherently aware of what group hierarchies may be present. In some cases this
may be side-stepped (e.g. we could sideload via tg_load_down in load balance)
while in others (e.g. update_shares()) it is more difficult to compute without
incurring some O(n^2) costs.
Instead, track hierarchicaal throttled state at time of transition. This
allows us to easily identify whether an entity belongs to a throttled hierarchy
and avoid incorrect interactions with it.
Also, when an entity leaves a throttled hierarchy we need to advance its
time averaging for shares averaging so that the elapsed throttled time is not
considered as part of the cfs_rq's operation.
We also use this information to prevent buddy interactions in the wakeup and
yield_to() paths.

sched: Expire invalid runtime
Since quota is managed using a global state but consumed on a per-cpu basis
we need to ensure that our per-cpu state is appropriately synchronized.
Most importantly, runtime that is state (from a previous period) should not be
locally consumable.
We take advantage of existing sched_clock synchronization about the jiffy to
efficiently detect whether we have (globally) crossed a quota boundary above.
One catch is that the direction of spread on sched_clock is undefined,
specifically, we don't know whether our local clock is behind or ahead
of the one responsible for the current expiration time.
Fortunately we can differentiate these by considering whether the
global deadline has advanced. If it has not, then we assume our clock to be
"fast" and advance our local expiration; otherwise, we know the deadline has
truly passed and we expire our local runtime.

sched/cpupri: Fix memory barriers for vec updates to always be in order
[ This patch actually compiles. Thanks to Mike Galbraith for pointing
that out. I compiled and booted this patch with no issues. ]
Re-examining the cpupri patch, I see there's a possible race because the
update of the two priorities vec->counts are not protected by a memory
barrier.
When a RT runqueue is overloaded and wants to push an RT task to another
runqueue, it scans the RT priority vectors in a loop from lowest
priority to highest.
When we queue or dequeue an RT task that changes a runqueue's highest
priority task, we update the vectors to show that a runqueue is rated at
a different priority. To do this, we first set the new priority mask,
and increment the vec->count, and then set the old priority mask by
decrementing the vec->count.
If we are lowering the runqueue's RT priority rating, it will trigger a
RT pull, and we do not care if we miss pushing to this runqueue or not.
But if we raise the priority, but the priority is still lower than an RT
task that is looking to be pushed, we must make sure that this runqueue
is still seen by the push algorithm (the loop).
Because the loop reads from lowest to highest, and the new priority is
set before the old one is cleared, we will either see the new or old
priority set and the vector will be checked.
But! Since there's no memory barrier between the updates of the two, the
old count may be decremented first before the new count is incremented.
This means the loop may see the old count of zero and skip it, and also
the new count of zero before it was updated. A possible runqueue that
the RT task could move to could be missed.
A conditional memory barrier is placed between the vec->count updates
and is only called when both updates are done.
The smp_wmb() has also been changed to smp_mb__before_atomic_inc/dec(),
as they are not needed by archs that already synchronize
atomic_inc/dec().
The smp_rmb() has been moved to be called at every iteration of the loop
so that the race between seeing the two updates is visible by each
iteration of the loop, as an arch is free to optimize the reading of
memory of the counters in the loop.

sched/cpupri: Remove the vec->lock
sched/cpupri: Remove the vec->lock
The cpupri vec->lock has been showing up as a top contention
lately. This is because of the RT push/pull logic takes an
agressive approach for migrating RT tasks. The cpupri logic is
in place to improve the performance of the push/pull when dealing
with large number CPU machines.
The problem though is a vec->lock is required, where a vec is a
global per RT priority structure. That is, if there are lots of
RT tasks at the same priority, every time they are added or removed
from the RT queue, this global vec->lock is taken. Now that more
kernel threads are becoming RT (RCU boost and threaded interrupts)
this is becoming much more of an issue.
There are two variables that are being synced by the vec->lock.
The cpupri bitmask, and the vec->counter. The cpupri bitmask
is one bit per priority. If a RT priority vec has a process queued,
then the vec->count is > 0 and the cpupri bitmask is set for that
RT priority.
If the cpupri bitmask gets out of sync with the vec->counter, we could
end up pushing a low proirity RT task to a high priority queue.
That RT task that could have run immediately could be queued on a
run queue with a higher priority task indefinitely.
The solution is not to use the cpupri bitmask and just look at the
vec->count directly when doing a pull. The cpupri bitmask is just
a fast way to scan the RT priorities when a pull is made. Instead
of using the bitmask, and just examine all RT priorities, and
look at the vec->counts, we could eliminate the vec->lock. The
scan of RT tasks is to find a run queue that we can push an RT task
to, and we do not push to a high priority queue, thus the scan only
needs to go from 1 to RT task->prio, and not all 100 RT priorities.
The push algorithm, which does the scan of RT priorities (and
scan of the bitmask) only happens when we have an overloaded RT run
queue (more than one RT task queued). The grabbing of the vec->lock
happens every time any RT task is queued or dequeued on the run
queue for that priority. The slowing down of the scan by not using
a bitmask is negligible by the speed up of removing the vec->lock
contention, and replacing it with an atomic counter and memory barrier.
To prove this, I wrote a patch that times both the loop and the code
that grabs the vec->locks. I passed the patches to various people
(and companies) to test and show the results. I let everyone choose
their own load to test, giving different loads on the system,
for various different setups.
Here's some of the results: (snipping to a few CPUs to not make
this change log huge, but the results were consistent across
the entire system).

The test run during the measurement did not have any (very few,
from other CPUs) RT tasks pushing. But this shows that it helped
out tremendously with the contention, as the contention happens
because the vec->lock is taken only on queuing at an RT priority,
and different CPUs that queue tasks at the same priority will
have contention.

sched: Use pushable_tasks to determine next highest prio
Hillf Danton proposed a patch (see link) that cleaned up the
sched_rt code that calculates the priority of the next highest priority
task to be used in finding run queues to pull from.
His patch removed the calculating of the next prio to just use the current
prio when deteriming if we should examine a run queue to pull from. The problem
with his patch was that it caused more false checks. Because we check a run
queue for pushable tasks if the current priority of that run queue is higher
in priority than the task about to run on our run queue. But after grabbing
the locks and doing the real check, we find that there may not be a task
that has a higher prio task to pull. Thus the locks were taken with nothing to
do.
I added some trace_printks() to record when and how many times the run queue
locks were taken to check for pullable tasks, compared to how many times we
pulled a task.
With the current method, it was:
3806 locks taken vs 2812 pulled tasks
With Hillf's patch:
6728 locks taken vs 2804 pulled tasks
The number of times locks were taken to pull a task went up almost double with
no more success rate.
But his patch did get me thinking. When we look at the priority of the highest
task to consider taking the locks to do a pull, a failure to pull can be one
of the following: (in order of most likely)
o RT task was pushed off already between the check and taking the lock
o Waiting RT task can not be migrated
o RT task's CPU affinity does not include the target run queue's CPU
o RT task's priority changed between the check and taking the lock
And with Hillf's patch, the thing that caused most of the failures, is
the RT task to pull was not at the right priority to pull (not greater than
the current RT task priority on the target run queue).
Most of the above cases we can't help. But the current method does not check
if the next highest prio RT task can be migrated or not, and if it can not,
we still grab the locks to do the test (we don't find out about this fact until
after we have the locks). I thought about this case, and realized that the
pushable task plist that is maintained only holds RT tasks that can migrate.
If we move the calculating of the next highest prio task from the inc/dec_rt_task()
functions into the queuing of the pushable tasks, then we only measure the
priorities of those tasks that we push, and we get this basically for free.
Not only does this patch make the code a little more efficient, it cleans it
up and makes it a little simpler.

sched: Balance RT tasks when forked as well
When a new task is woken, the code to balance the RT task is currently
skipped in the select_task_rq() call. But it will be pushed if the rq
is currently overloaded with RT tasks anyway. The issue is that we
already queued the task, and if it does get pushed, it will have to
be dequeued and requeued on the new run queue. The advantage with
pushing it first is that we avoid this requeuing as we are pushing it
off before the task is ever queued.
See commit
318e0893ce3f524 ("sched: pre-route RT tasks on wakeup")
for more details.
The return of select_task_rq() when it is not a wake up has also been
changed to return task_cpu() instead of smp_processor_id(). This is more
of a sanity because the current only other user of select_task_rq()
besides wake ups, is an exec, where task_cpu() should also be the same
as smp_processor_id(). But if it is used for other purposes, lets keep
the task on the same CPU. Why would we mant to migrate it to the current
CPU?

move RLIMIT_NPROC check from set_user() to do_execve_common()
The patch http://lkml.org/lkml/2003/7/13/226 introduced an RLIMIT_NPROC
check in set_user() to check for NPROC exceeding via setuid() and
similar functions.
Before the check there was a possibility to greatly exceed the allowed
number of processes by an unprivileged user if the program relied on
rlimit only. But the check created new security threat: many poorly
written programs simply don't check setuid() return code and believe it
cannot fail if executed with root privileges. So, the check is removed
in this patch because of too often privilege escalations related to
buggy programs.
The NPROC can still be enforced in the common code flow of daemons
spawning user processes. Most of daemons do fork()+setuid()+execve().
The check introduced in execve() (1) enforces the same limit as in
setuid() and (2) doesn't create similar security issues.
Neil Brown suggested to track what specific process has exceeded the
limit by setting PF_NPROC_EXCEEDED process flag. With the change only
this process would fail on execve(), and other processes' execve()
behaviour is not changed.
Solar Designer suggested to re-check whether NPROC limit is still
exceeded at the moment of execve(). If the process was sleeping for
days between set*uid() and execve(), and the NPROC counter step down
under the limit, the defered execve() failure because NPROC limit was
exceeded days ago would be unexpected. If the limit is not exceeded
anymore, we clear the flag on successful calls to execve() and fork().
The flag is also cleared on successful calls to set_user() as the limit
was exceeded for the previous user, not the current one.
Similar check was introduced in -ow patches (without the process flag).
v3 - clear PF_NPROC_EXCEEDED on successful calls to set_user().

We are crashing because we try to dereference cached memcg when we are
checking whether we should wait for draining on the cache. The cache is
already cleaned up, though.
There is also a theoretical chance that the cached memcg gets freed
between we test for the FLUSHING_CACHED_CHARGE and dereference it in
mem_cgroup_same_or_subtree:
CPU0 CPU1 CPU2
mem=stock->cached
stock->cached=NULL
clear_bit
test_and_set_bit
test_bit() ...
<preempted> mem_cgroup_destroy
use after free
The percpu_charge_mutex protected from this race because sync draining
is exclusive.
It is safer to revert now and come up with a more parallel
implementation later.

key type as a module. The patch prevents this combination from being set in

slub: Fix partial count comparison confusion
deactivate_slab() has the comparison if more than the minimum number of
partial pages are in the partial list wrong. An effect of this may be that
empty pages are not freed from deactivate_slab(). The result could be an
OOM due to growth of the partial slabs per node. Frees mostly occur from
__slab_free which is okay so this would only affect use cases where a lot
of switching around of per cpu slabs occur.
Switching per cpu slabs occurs with high frequency if debugging options are

ARM: 7007/1: alignment: Prevent ignoring of faults with ARMv6 unaligned access model
Currently, it's possible to set the kernel to ignore alignment
faults when changing the alignment fault handling mode at runtime
via /proc/sys/alignment, even though this is undesirable on ARMv6
and above, where it can result in infinite spins where an un-fixed-
up instruction repeatedly faults.
In addition, the kernel clobbers any alignment mode specified on
the command-line if running on ARMv6 or above.
This patch factors out the necessary safety check into a couple of
new helper functions, and checks and modifies the fault handling
mode as appropriate on boot and on writes to /proc/cpu/alignment.
Prior to ARMv6, the behaviour is unchanged.
For ARMv6 and above, the behaviour changes as follows:
* Attempting to ignore faults on ARMv6 results in the mode being
forced to UM_FIXUP instead. A warning is printed if this
happened as a result of a write to /proc/cpu/alignment. The
user's UM_WARN bit (if present) is still honoured.
* An alignment= argument from the kernel command-line is now
honoured, except that the kernel will modify the specified mode
as described above. This is allows modes such as UM_SIGNAL and
UM_WARN to be active immediately from boot, which is useful for
debugging purposes.

Since commit
1eb19a12bd22 ("lib/sha1: use the git implementation of

depended on the larger 320-byte workspace, and now the sha1 workspace is
just 16 words (64 bytes). So the assembly version would overwrite the
stack randomly.
The optimized asm version is also probably slower than the new improved
C version, so there's no reason to keep it around. At least that was
the case in git, where what appears to be the same assembly language
version was removed two years ago because the optimized C BLK_SHA1 code
was faster.

vfs: optimize inode cache access patterns
The inode structure layout is largely random, and some of the vfs paths
really do care. The path lookup in particular is already quite D$
intensive, and profiles show that accessing the 'inode->i_op->xyz'
fields is quite costly.
We already optimized the dcache to not unnecessarily load the d_op
structure for members that are often NULL using the DCACHE_OP_xyz bits
in dentry->d_flags, and this does something very similar for the inode
ops that are used during pathname lookup.
It also re-orders the fields so that the fields accessed by 'stat' are
together at the beginning of the inode structure, and roughly in the
order accessed.
The effect of this seems to be in the 1-2% range for an empty kernel
"make -j" run (which is fairly kernel-intensive, mostly in filename
lookup), so it's visible. The numbers are fairly noisy, though, and
likely depend a lot on exact microarchitecture. So there's more tuning
to be done.

ORE stands for "Objects Raid Engine"
This patch is a mechanical rename of everything that was in ios.c
and its API declaration to an ore.c and an osd_ore.h header. The ore
engine will later be used by the pnfs objects layout driver.
* File ios.c => ore.c
* Declaration of types and API are moved from exofs.h to a new
osd_ore.h
* All used types are prefixed by ore_ from their exofs_ name.
* Shift includes from exofs.h to osd_ore.h so osd_ore.h is
independent, include it from exofs.h.
Other than a pure rename there are no other changes. Next patch
will move the ore into it's own module and will export the API
to be used by exofs and later the layout driver

exofs: ios: Move to a per inode components & device-table
Exofs raid engine was saving on memory space by having a single layout-info,
single pid, and a single device-table, global to the filesystem. Then passing
a credential and object_id info at the io_state level, private for each
inode. It would also devise this contraption of rotating the device table
view for each inode->ino to spread out the device usage.
This is not compatible with the pnfs-objects standard, demanding that
each inode can have it's own layout-info, device-table, and each object
component it's own pid, oid and creds.
So: Bring exofs raid engine to be usable for generic pnfs-objects use by:
* Define an exofs_comp structure that holds obj_id and credential info.
* Break up exofs_layout struct to an exofs_components structure that holds a
possible array of exofs_comp and the array of devices + the size of the
arrays.
* Add a "comps" parameter to get_io_state() that specifies the ids creds
and device array to use for each IO.
This enables to keep the layout global, but the device-table view, creds
and IDs at the inode level. It only adds two 64bit to each inode, since
some of these members already existed in another form.
* ios raid engine now access layout-info and comps-info through the passed
pointers. Everything is pre-prepared by caller for generic access of
these structures and arrays.
At the exofs Level:
* Super block holds an exofs_components struct that holds the device
array, previously in layout. The devices there are in device-table
order. The device-array is twice bigger and repeats the device-table
twice so now each inode's device array can point to a random device
and have a round-robin view of the table, making it compatible to
previous exofs versions.
* Each inode has an exofs_components struct that is initialized at
load time, with it's own view of the device table IDs and creds.
When doing IO this gets passed to the io_state together with the
layout.
While preforming this change. Bugs where found where credentials with the
wrong IDs where used to access the different SB objects (super.c). As well
as some dead code. It was never noticed because the target we use does not
check the credentials.
