* lockup_detector: Convert cpu notifier to return encapsulate errno valueAkinobu Mita2010-09-011-10/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | By the commit e6bde73b07edeb703d4c89c1daabc09c303de11f ("cpu-hotplug: return better errno on cpu hotplug failure"), the cpu notifier can return encapsulate errno value, resulting in more meaningful error codes for CPU hotplug failures. This converts the cpu notifier to return encapsulate errno value for the lockup_detector as well.

* tracing/lockdep: Fix dependency of TRACE_IRQFLAGSSteven Rostedt2010-08-311-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When CONFIG_IRQSOFF_TRACER is set and CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING is not, we get the following error: $ make oldconfig scripts/kconfig/conf --oldconfig arch/x86/Kconfig warning: (IRQSOFF_TRACER && TRACING_SUPPORT && FTRACE && TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT && !ARCH_USES_GETTIMEOFFSET) selects TRACE_IRQFLAGS which has unmet direct dependencies (DEBUG_KERNEL && TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT && PROVE_LOCKING) warning: (IRQSOFF_TRACER && TRACING_SUPPORT && FTRACE && TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT && !ARCH_USES_GETTIMEOFFSET) selects TRACE_IRQFLAGS which has unmet direct dependencies (DEBUG_KERNEL && TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT && PROVE_LOCKING) This is because IRQSOFF_TRACER selects TRACE_IRQFLAGS but TRACE_IRQFLAGS has PROVE_LOCKING as a dependency. This code is incorrect, and this patch changes the TRACE_IRQFLAGS to be just a simple bool that does not depend or select anything. Instead both IRQSOFF_TRACER and PROVE_LOCKING select it.

| | * perf: Initialize callchains roots's childen hitsFrederic Weisbecker2010-08-271-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Each histogram entry has a callchain root that stores the callchain samples. However we forgot to initialize the tracking of children hits of these roots, which then got random values on their creation. The root children hits is multiplied by the minimum percentage of hits provided by the user, and the result becomes the minimum hits expected from children branches. If the random value due to the uninitialization is big enough, then this minimum number of hits can be huge and eventually filter every children branches. The end result was invisible callchains. All we need to fix this is to initialize the children hits of the root.

So associate 'E' with "Expand all callchains" and 'C' with "Collapse all callchains". This way now one can have the top level view and then switch to/from having all callchains expanded. More work is needed to allow expanding just from one branch down to its leaves.

Unfortunately, the current timer tracing is not very useful: the actual timer function is not recorded in the trace at the start of timer execution. Although this is recorded for timer "start" time (when it gets armed), this is not useful; most timers get started early, and a tracer like PowerTOP will never see this event, but will only see the actual running of the timer. This patch just adds the function to the timer tracing; I've verified with PowerTOP that now it can get useful information about timers.

It is found on a 8 node 64 core Nehalem-EX system (HT mode). The intention of the optimistic mutex spin is to busy wait and spin on a mutex if the owner of the mutex is running, in the hope that the mutex will be released soon and be acquired, without the thread trying to acquire mutex going to sleep. However, when we have a large number of threads, contending for the mutex, we could have the mutex grabbed by other thread, and then another ……, and we will keep spinning, wasting cpu cycles and adding to the contention. One possible fix is to quit spinning and put the current thread on wait-list if mutex lock switch to a new owner while we spin, indicating heavy contention (see the patch included). I did some testing on a 8 socket Nehalem-EX system with a total of 64 cores. Using Ingo's test-mutex program that creates/delete files with 256 threads (http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/1/8/50) , I see the following speed up after putting in the mutex spin fix: ./mutex-test V 256 10 Ops/sec 2.6.34 62864 With fix 197200 Repeating the test with Aim7 fserver workload, again there is a speed up with the fix: Jobs/min 2.6.34 91657 With fix 149325 To look at the impact on the distribution of mutex acquisition time, I collected the mutex acquisition time on Aim7 fserver workload with some instrumentation. The average acquisition time is reduced by 48% and number of contentions reduced by 32%. #contentions Time to acquire mutex (cycles) 2.6.34 72973 44765791 With fix 49210 23067129 The histogram of mutex acquisition time is listed below. The acquisition time is in 2^bin cycles. We see that without the fix, the acquisition time is mostly around 2^26 cycles. With the fix, we the distribution get spread out a lot more towards the lower cycles, starting from 2^13. However, there is an increase of the tail distribution with the fix at 2^28 and 2^29 cycles. It seems a small price to pay for the reduced average acquisition time and also getting the cpu to do useful work.

One is on a dual-socket Westmere box (12 cores total, with HT). Another experiment is on an old dual-socket Core 2 box (4 cores total, no HT) On the 12-core Westmere box, I see a 250% increase for Ingo's mutex-test program with my mutex patch but no significant difference in aim7's fserver workload. On the 4-core Core 2 box, I see the difference with the patch for both mutex-test and aim7 fserver are negligible. So far, it seems like the patch has not caused regression on smaller systems.

The comment for mm_users says "How many users with user space?" but the /proc code increases mm_users after it found the process structure by pid without creating a new user process. Which makes mm_users useless for the decision between the two tlb flusing methods. The current code can be confused to not flush tlb entries by a concurrent access to /proc files if e.g. a fork is in progres. The solution for this problem is to make the tlb flushing logic independent from the mm_users field. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

With the current fixed 3K buffer we use for moving data in and out of the firmware during PROM calls, that simply won't work. In fact, it will scramble random kernel data during bootup. The reasoning behind the temporary buffer is entirely historical. It used to be the case that we had problems referencing dynamic kernel memory (including the stack) early in the boot process before we explicitly told the firwmare to switch us over to the kernel trap table. So what we did was always give the firmware buffers that were locked into the main kernel image. But we no longer have problems like that, so get rid of all of this indirect bounce buffering. Besides fixing Meelis's bug, this also makes the kernel data about 3K smaller. It was also discovered during these conversions that the implementation of prom_retain() was completely wrong, so that was fixed here as well. Currently that interface is not in use.

This gets us off of the by-hand asm code I wrote, which frankly I think probably ruins I-cache hit rates. The idea was the keep the call chains less deep, but anything taking the rw-semaphores probably is also calling other stuff and therefore already has allocated a stack-frame. So no real stack frame savings ever. Ben H. has posted patches to make powerpc use 64-bit too and with some abstractions we can probably use a shared header file somewhere.

Failing to do so means stack access requires an SLB miss exception to refill an entry dynamically, if the stack isn't accessible via SLB(0) (kernel text & static data). It's not always allowable to take such a miss, and intermittent crashes will result. Primary CPUs don't have this issue; an SLB entry is not bolted for their stack anyway (as that lives within SLB(0)). This patch therefore only affects the init of secondaries.

The semantic patch that makes this change is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @@ iterator name for_each_node_by_name; expression np,E; identifier l; @@ for_each_node_by_name(np,...) { ... when != break; when != goto l; } ... when != np = E - of_node_put(np); // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> Reviewed-by: Grant Likely <grant.likely@secretlab.ca> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
