2009-08-02lockdep: Reintroduce generation count to make BFS fasterMing Lei
We still can apply DaveM's generation count optimization to BFS, based on the following idea: - before doing each BFS, increase the global generation id by 1 - if one node in the graph has been visited, mark it as visited by storing the current global generation id into the node's dep_gen_id field - so we can decide if one node has been visited already, by comparing the node's dep_gen_id with the global generation id. By applying DaveM's generation count optimization to current implementation of BFS, we gain the following advantages: - we save MAX_LOCKDEP_ENTRIES/8 bytes memory; - we remove the bitmap_zero(bfs_accessed, MAX_LOCKDEP_ENTRIES); in each BFS, which is very time-consuming since MAX_LOCKDEP_ENTRIES may be very large.(16384UL) Signed-off-by: Ming Lei <tom.leiming@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: "David S.

2009-08-02lockdep: Deal with many similar locksPeter Zijlstra
spin_lock_nest_lock() allows to take many instances of the same class, this can easily lead to overflow of MAX_LOCK_DEPTH. To avoid this overflow, we'll stop accounting instances but start reference counting the class in the held_lock structure. [ We could maintain a list of instances, if we'd move the hlock stuff into __lock_acquired(), but that would require significant modifications to the current code. ] We restrict this mode to spin_lock_nest_lock() only, because it degrades the lockdep quality due to lost of instance. For lockstat this means we don't track lock statistics for any but the first lock in the series. Currently nesting is limited to 11 bits because that was the spare space available in held_lock. This yields a 2048 instances maximium.

2009-08-02sched: Fully integrate cpus_active_map and root-domain codeGregory Haskins
Reflect "active" cpus in the rq->rd->online field, instead of the online_map. The motivation is that things that use the root-domain code (such as cpupri) only care about cpus classified as "active" anyway. By synchronizing the root-domain state with the active map, we allow several optimizations. For instance, we can remove an extra cpumask_and from the scheduler hotpath by utilizing rq->rd->online (since it is now a cached version of cpu_active_map & rq->rd->span).

2009-08-02sched: Enhance the pre/post scheduling logicGregory Haskins
We currently have an explicit "needs_post" vtable method which returns a stack variable for whether we should later run post-schedule. This leads to an awkward exchange of the variable as it bubbles back up out of the context switch. Peter Zijlstra observed that this information could be stored in the run-queue itself instead of handled on the stack. Therefore, we revert to the method of having context_switch return void, and update an internal rq->post_schedule variable when we require further processing. In addition, we fix a race condition where we try to access current->sched_class without holding the rq->lock. This is technically racy, as the sched-class could change out from under us. Instead, we reference the per-rq post_schedule variable with the runqueue unlocked, but with preemption disabled to see if we need to reacquire the rq->lock. Finally, we clean the code up slightly by removing the #ifdef CONFIG_SMP conditionals from the schedule() call, and implement some inline helper functions instead. This patch passes checkpatch, and rt-migrate.

2009-08-02sched: Add new prio to cpupri before removing old prioSteven Rostedt
We need to add the new prio to the cpupri accounting before removing the old prio. This is because removing the old prio first will open a race window where the cpu will be removed from pri_active. In this case the cpu will not be visible for RT push and pulls. This could cause a RT task to not migrate appropriately, and create a very large latency.

Commit ec4e0e2fe018992d980910db901637c814575914 ("fix inconsistency when redistribute per-cpu tg->cfs_rq shares") broke cgroup smp fairness. In order to avoid starvation of newly placed tasks, we never quite set the share of an empty cpu group-task to 0, but instead we set it as if there's a single NICE-0 task present. If however we actually set this in cfs_rq[cpu]->shares, that means the total shares for that group will be slightly inflated every time we balance, causing the observed unfairness. Fix this by setting cfs_rq[cpu]->shares to 0 but actually setting the effective weight of the related se to the inflated number.

2009-08-02sched: Fix race in cpupri introduced by cpumask_var changesGregory Haskins
Background: Several race conditions in the scheduler have cropped up recently, which Steven and I have tracked down using ftrace. The most recent one turns out to be a race in how the scheduler determines a suitable migration target for RT tasks, introduced recently with commit: commit 68e74568fbe5854952355e942acca51f138096d9 Date: Tue Nov 25 02:35:13 2008 +1030 sched: convert struct cpupri_vec cpumask_var_t. The original design of cpupri allowed lockless readers to quickly determine a best-estimate target. Races between the pri_active bitmap and the vec->mask were handled in the original code because we would detect and return "0" when this occured. The design was predicated on the *effective* atomicity (*) of caching the result of cpus_and() between the cpus_allowed and the vec->mask. Commit 68e74568 changed the behavior such that vec->mask is accessed multiple times. This introduces a subtle race, the result of which means we can have a result that returns "1", but with an empty bitmap. *) yes, we know cpus_and() is not a locked operator across the entire composite array, but it is implicitly atomic on a per-word basis which is all the design required to work. Implementation: Rather than forgoing the lockless design, or reverting to a stack-based cpumask_t, we simply check for when the race has been encountered and continue processing in the event that the race is hit. This renders the removal race as if the priority bit had been atomically cleared as well, and allows the algorithm to execute correctly.

2009-08-02debug lockups: Improve lockup detectionIngo Molnar
When debugging a recent lockup bug i found various deficiencies in how our current lockup detection helpers work: - SysRq-L is not very efficient as it uses a workqueue, hence it cannot punch through hard lockups and cannot see through most soft lockups either. - The SysRq-L code depends on the NMI watchdog - which is off by default. - We dont print backtraces from the RCU code's built-in 'RCU state machine is stuck' debug code. This debug code tends to be one of the first (and only) mechanisms that show that a lockup has occured. This patch changes the code so taht we: - Trigger the NMI backtrace code from SysRq-L instead of using a workqueue (which cannot punch through hard lockups) - Trigger print-all-CPU-backtraces from the RCU lockup detection code Also decouple the backtrace printing code from the NMI watchdog: - Dont use variable size cpumasks (it might not be initialized and they are a bit more fragile anyway) - Trigger an NMI immediately via an IPI, instead of waiting for the NMI tick to occur. This is a lot faster and can produce more relevant backtraces. It will also work if the NMI watchdog is disabled. - Dont print the 'dazed and confused' message when we print a backtrace from the NMI - Do a show_regs() plus a dump_stack() to get maximum info out of the dump. Worst-case we get two stacktraces - which is not a big deal. Sometimes, if register content is corrupted, the precise stack walker in show_regs() wont give us a full backtrace - in this case dump_stack() will do it. Cc: Paul E.

2009-08-01do_sigaltstack: avoid copying 'stack_t' as a structure to user spaceLinus Torvalds
Ulrich Drepper correctly points out that there is generally padding in the structure on 64-bit hosts, and that copying the structure from kernel to user space can leak information from the kernel stack in those padding bytes. Avoid the whole issue by just copying the three members one by one instead, which also means that the function also can avoid the need for a stack frame. This also happens to match how we copy the new structure from user space, so it all even makes sense.

When print_graph_entry() computes a function call entry event, it needs to also check the next entry to guess if it matches the return event of the current function entry. In order to look at this next event, it needs to consume the current entry before going ahead in the ring buffer. However, if the current event that gets consumed is the last one in the ring buffer head page, the ring_buffer may reuse the page for writers. The consumed entry will then become invalid because of possible racy overwriting. Me must then handle this entry by making a copy of it.

2009-07-24lockdep: Introduce print_shortest_lock_dependenciesMing Lei
Since the shortest lock dependencies' path may be obtained by BFS, we print the shortest one by print_shortest_lock_dependencies().

2009-07-24lockdep: Improve implementation of BFSMing Lei
1,replace %MAX_CIRCULAR_QUE_SIZE with &(MAX_CIRCULAR_QUE_SIZE-1) since we define MAX_CIRCULAR_QUE_SIZE as power of 2; 2,use bitmap to mark if a lock is accessed in BFS in order to clear it quickly, because we may search a graph many times.

2009-07-24lockdep: Print the shortest dependency chain if finding a circleMing Lei
Currently lockdep will print the 1st circle detected if it exists when acquiring a new (next) lock. This patch prints the shortest path from the next lock to be acquired to the previous held lock if a circle is found. The patch still uses the current method to check circle, and once the circle is found, breadth-first search algorithem is used to compute the shortest path from the next lock to the previous lock in the forward lock dependency graph. Printing the shortest path will shorten the dependency chain, and make troubleshooting for possible circular locking easier.

2009-07-24sched: Fix return value of migration_init()Thomas Gleixner
migration_init() returns the return value of the hotplug notifier. In the success case this is NOTIFY_OK which is 1. initcall_debug evaluates that as an error code because init calls are expected to return 0 on success. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2009-07-23tracing: only truncate ftrace files when O_TRUNC is setSteven Rostedt
The current code will truncate the ftrace files contents if O_APPEND is not set and the file is opened in write mode. This is incorrect. It should only truncate the file if O_TRUNC is set. Otherwise if one of these files is opened by a C program with fopen "r+", it will incorrectly truncate the file.

2009-07-23tracing: show proper address for trace-printk formatSteven Rostedt
Since the trace_printk may use pointers to the format fields in the buffer, they are exported via debugfs/tracing/printk_formats. This is used by utilities that read the ring buffer in binary format. It helps the utilities map the address of the format in the binary buffer to what the printf format looks like. Unfortunately, the way the output code works, it exports the address of the pointer to the format address, and not the format address itself. This makes the file totally useless in trying to figure out what format string a binary address belongs to. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
