* percpu: add __percpu sparse annotations to core kernel subsystemsTejun Heo2010-02-171-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add __percpu sparse annotations to core subsystems. These annotations are to make sparse consider percpu variables to be in a different address space and warn if accessed without going through percpu accessors. This patch doesn't affect normal builds.

* stop_machine: introduce stop_machine_create/destroy.Heiko Carstens2009-01-051-10/+45
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Introduce stop_machine_create/destroy. With this interface subsystems that need a non-failing stop_machine environment can create the stop_machine machine threads before actually calling stop_machine. When the threads aren't needed anymore they can be killed with stop_machine_destroy again. When stop_machine gets called and the threads aren't present they will be created and destroyed automatically. This restores the old behaviour of stop_machine. This patch also converts cpu hotplug to the new interface since it is special: cpu_down calls __stop_machine instead of stop_machine. However the kstop threads will only be created when stop_machine gets called. Changing the code so that the threads would be created automatically on __stop_machine is currently not possible: when __stop_machine gets called we hold cpu_add_remove_lock, which is the same lock that create_rt_workqueue would take. So the workqueue needs to be created before the cpu hotplug code locks cpu_add_remove_lock.

* cpumask: convert rest of files in kernel/Rusty Russell2009-01-011-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: Reduce stack usage, use new cpumask API. Mainly changing cpumask_t to 'struct cpumask' and similar simple API conversion. Two conversions worth mentioning: 1) we use cpumask_any_but to avoid a temporary in kernel/softlockup.c, 2) Use cpumask_var_t in taskstats_user_cmd().

* Revert "Call init_workqueues before pre smp initcalls."Linus Torvalds2008-10-251-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This reverts commit a802dd0eb5fc97a50cf1abb1f788a8f6cc5db635 by moving the call to init_workqueues() back where it belongs - after SMP has been initialized. It also moves stop_machine_init() - which needs workqueues - to a later phase using a core_initcall() instead of early_initcall(). That should satisfy all ordering requirements, and was apparently the reason why init_workqueues() was moved to be too early.

* stop_machine: fix error code handling on multiple cpusHeiko Carstens2008-10-221-3/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | Using |= for updating a value which might be updated on several cpus concurrently will not always work since we need to make sure that the update happens atomically. To fix this just use a write if the called function returns an error code on a cpu. We end up writing the error code of an arbitrary cpu if multiple ones fail but that should be sufficient.

* stop_machine: use workqueues instead of kernel threadsHeiko Carstens2008-10-221-70/+41
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Convert stop_machine to a workqueue based approach. Instead of using kernel threads for stop_machine we now use a an rt workqueue to synchronize all cpus. This has the advantage that all needed per cpu threads are already created when stop_machine gets called. And therefore a call to stop_machine won't fail anymore. This is needed for s390 which needs a mechanism to synchronize all cpus without allocating any memory. As Rusty pointed out free_module() needs a non-failing stop_machine interface as well. As a side effect the stop_machine code gets simplified. Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

* stop_machine(): stop_machine_run() changed to use cpu maskRusty Russell2008-07-281-14/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of a "cpu" arg with magic values NR_CPUS (any cpu) and ~0 (all cpus), pass a cpumask_t. Allow NULL for the common case (where we don't care which CPU the function is run on): temporary cpumask_t's are usually considered bad for stack space.

* cpumask: Replace cpumask_of_cpu with cpumask_of_cpu_ptrMike Travis2008-07-181-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * This patch replaces the dangerous lvalue version of cpumask_of_cpu with new cpumask_of_cpu_ptr macros. These are patterned after the node_to_cpumask_ptr macros. In general terms, if there is a cpumask_of_cpu_map[] then a pointer to the cpumask_of_cpu_map[cpu] entry is used. The cpumask_of_cpu_map is provided when there is a large NR_CPUS count, reducing greatly the amount of code generated and stack space used for cpumask_of_cpu(). The pointer to the cpumask_t value is needed for calling set_cpus_allowed_ptr() to reduce the amount of stack space needed to pass the cpumask_t value. If there isn't a cpumask_of_cpu_map[], then a temporary variable is declared and filled in with value from cpumask_of_cpu(cpu) as well as a pointer variable pointing to this temporary variable. Afterwards, the pointer is used to reference the cpumask value. The compiler will optimize out the extra dereference through the pointer as well as the stack space used for the pointer, resulting in identical code. A good example of the orthogonal usages is in net/sunrpc/svc.c: case SVC_POOL_PERCPU: { unsigned int cpu = m->pool_to[pidx]; cpumask_of_cpu_ptr(cpumask, cpu); *oldmask = current->cpus_allowed; set_cpus_allowed_ptr(current, cpumask); return 1; } case SVC_POOL_PERNODE: { unsigned int node = m->pool_to[pidx]; node_to_cpumask_ptr(nodecpumask, node); *oldmask = current->cpus_allowed; set_cpus_allowed_ptr(current, nodecpumask); return 1; } Signed-off-by: Mike Travis <travis@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

* stop_machine: make stop_machine_run more virtualization friendlyChristian Borntraeger2008-05-231-3/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On kvm I have seen some rare hangs in stop_machine when I used more guest cpus than hosts cpus. e.g. 32 guest cpus on 1 host cpu triggered the hang quite often. I could also reproduce the problem on a 4 way z/VM host with a 64 way guest. It turned out that the guest was consuming all available cpus mostly for spinning on scheduler locks like rq->lock. This is expected as the threads are calling yield all the time. The problem is now, that the host scheduling decisings together with the guest scheduling decisions and spinlocks not being fair managed to create an interesting scenario similar to a live lock. (Sometimes the hang resolved itself after some minutes) Changing stop_machine to yield the cpu to the hypervisor when yielding inside the guest fixed the problem for me. While I am not completely happy with this patch, I think it causes no harm and it really improves the situation for me. I used cpu_relax for yielding to the hypervisor, does that work on all architectures? p.s.: If you want to reproduce the problem, cpu hotplug and kprobes use stop_machine_run and both triggered the problem after some retries.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Replace call_smp_function with stop_machine_run in the Intel RNG driver. CPU A has done read_lock(&lock) CPU B has done write_lock_irq(&lock) and is waiting for A to release the lock. A third CPU calls call_smp_function and issues the IPI. CPU A takes CPU C's IPI. CPU B is waiting with interrupts disabled and does not see the IPI. CPU C is stuck waiting for CPU B to respond to the IPI. Deadlock. The solution is to use stop_machine_run instead of call_smp_function (call_smp_function should not be called in situations where the CPUs may be suspended).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch implements a number of smp_processor_id() cleanup ideas that Arjan van de Ven and I came up with. The previous __smp_processor_id/_smp_processor_id/smp_processor_id API spaghetti was hard to follow both on the implementational and on the usage side. Some of the complexity arose from picking wrong names, some of the complexity comes from the fact that not all architectures defined __smp_processor_id. In the new code, there are two externally visible symbols: - smp_processor_id(): debug variant. - raw_smp_processor_id(): nondebug variant. Replaces all existing uses of _smp_processor_id() and __smp_processor_id(). Defined by every SMP architecture in include/asm-*/smp.h. There is one new internal symbol, dependent on DEBUG_PREEMPT: - debug_smp_processor_id(): internal debug variant, mapped to smp_processor_id(). Also, i moved debug_smp_processor_id() from lib/kernel_lock.c into a new lib/smp_processor_id.c file. All related comments got updated and/or clarified. I have build/boot tested the following 8 .config combinations on x86: {SMP,UP} x {PREEMPT,!PREEMPT} x {DEBUG_PREEMPT,!DEBUG_PREEMPT} I have also build/boot tested x64 on UP/PREEMPT/DEBUG_PREEMPT.
