2009-09-22ksm: clean up obsolete referencesHugh Dickins1-20/+0
A few cleanups, given the munlock fix: the comment on ksm_test_exit() no longer applies, and it can be made private to ksm.c; there's no more reference to mmu_gather or tlb.h, and mmap.c doesn't need ksm.h.

2009-09-22ksm: fix deadlock with munlock in exit_mmapAndrea Arcangeli1-7/+4
Rawhide users have reported hang at startup when cryptsetup is run: the same problem can be simply reproduced by running a program int main() { mlockall(MCL_CURRENT | MCL_FUTURE); return 0; } The problem is that exit_mmap() applies munlock_vma_pages_all() to clean up VM_LOCKED areas, and its current implementation (stupidly) tries to fault in absent pages, for example where PROT_NONE prevented them being faulted in when mlocking. Whereas the "ksm: fix oom deadlock" patch, knowing there's a race by which KSM might try to fault in pages after exit_mmap() had finally zapped the range, backs out of such faults doing nothing when its ksm_test_exit() notices mm_users 0. So revert that part of "ksm: fix oom deadlock" which moved the ksm_exit() call from before exit_mmap() to the middle of exit_mmap(); and remove those ksm_test_exit() checks from the page fault paths, so allowing the munlocking to proceed without interference. ksm_exit, if there are rmap_items still chained on this mm slot, takes mmap_sem write side: so preventing KSM from working on an mm while exit_mmap runs. And KSM will bail out as soon as it notices that mm_users is already zero, thanks to its internal ksm_test_exit checks. So that when a task is killed by OOM killer or the user, KSM will not indefinitely prevent it from running exit_mmap to release its memory. This does break a part of what "ksm: fix oom deadlock" was trying to achieve. When unmerging KSM (echo 2 >/sys/kernel/mm/ksm), and even when ksmd itself has to cancel a KSM page, it is possible that the first OOM-kill victim would be the KSM process being faulted: then its memory won't be freed until a second victim has been selected (freeing memory for the unmerging fault to complete). But the OOM killer is already liable to kill a second victim once the intended victim's p->mm goes to NULL: so there's not much point in rejecting this KSM patch before fixing that OOM behaviour. It is very much more important to allow KSM users to boot up, than to haggle over an unlikely and poorly supported OOM case. We also intend to fix munlocking to not fault pages: at which point this patch _could_ be reverted; though that would be controversial, so we hope to find a better solution.

2009-09-22ksm: fix oom deadlockHugh Dickins1-4/+27
There's a now-obvious deadlock in KSM's out-of-memory handling: imagine ksmd or KSM_RUN_UNMERGE handling, holding ksm_thread_mutex, trying to allocate a page to break KSM in an mm which becomes the OOM victim (quite likely in the unmerge case): it's killed and goes to exit, and hangs there waiting to acquire ksm_thread_mutex. Clearly we must not require ksm_thread_mutex in __ksm_exit, simple though that made everything else: perhaps use mmap_sem somehow? And part of the answer lies in the comments on unmerge_ksm_pages: __ksm_exit should also leave all the rmap_item removal to ksmd. But there's a fundamental problem, that KSM relies upon mmap_sem to guarantee the consistency of the mm it's dealing with, yet exit_mmap tears down an mm without taking mmap_sem. And bumping mm_users won't help at all, that just ensures that the pages the OOM killer assumes are on their way to being freed will not be freed. The best answer seems to be, to move the ksm_exit callout from just before exit_mmap, to the middle of exit_mmap: after the mm's pages have been freed (if the mmu_gather is flushed), but before its page tables and vma structures have been freed; and down_write,up_write mmap_sem there to serialize with KSM's own reliance on mmap_sem. But KSM then needs to be careful, whenever it downs mmap_sem, to check that the mm is not already exiting: there's a danger of using find_vma on a layout that's being torn apart, or writing into page tables which have been freed for reuse; and even do_anonymous_page and __do_fault need to check they're not being called by break_ksm to reinstate a pte after zap_pte_range has zapped that page table. Though it might be clearer to add an exiting flag, set while holding mmap_sem in __ksm_exit, that wouldn't cover the issue of reinstating a zapped pte. All we need is to check whether mm_users is 0 - but must remember that ksmd may detect that before __ksm_exit is reached. So, ksm_test_exit(mm) added to comment such checks on mm->mm_users. __ksm_exit now has to leave clearing up the rmap_items to ksmd, that needs ksm_thread_mutex; but shift the exiting mm just after the ksm_scan cursor so that it will soon be dealt with. __ksm_enter raise mm_count to hold the mm_struct, ksmd's exit processing (exactly like its processing when it finds all VM_MERGEABLEs unmapped) mmdrop it, similar procedure for KSM_RUN_UNMERGE (which has stopped ksmd). But also give __ksm_exit a fast path: when there's no complication (no rmap_items attached to mm and it's not at the ksm_scan cursor), it can safely do all the exiting work itself. This is not just an optimization: when ksmd is not running, the raised mm_count would otherwise leak mm_structs.

2009-09-22ksm: identify PageKsm pagesHugh Dickins1-0/+29
KSM will need to identify its kernel merged pages unambiguously, and /proc/kpageflags will probably like to do so too. Since KSM will only be substituting anonymous pages, statistics are best preserved by making a PageKsm page a special PageAnon page: one with no anon_vma. But KSM then needs its own page_add_ksm_rmap() - keep it in ksm.h near PageKsm; and do_wp_page() must COW them, unlike singly mapped PageAnons.

2009-09-22ksm: no debug in page_dup_rmap()Hugh Dickins1-5/+1
page_dup_rmap(), used on each mapped page when forking, was originally just an inline atomic_inc of mapcount. 2.6.22 added CONFIG_DEBUG_VM out-of-line checks to it, which would need to be ever-so-slightly complicated to allow for the PageKsm() we're about to define. But I think these checks never caught anything. And if it's coding errors we're worried about, such checks should be in page_remove_rmap() too, not just when forking; whereas if it's pagetable corruption we're worried about, then they shouldn't be limited to CONFIG_DEBUG_VM. Oh, just revert page_dup_rmap() to an inline atomic_inc of mapcount.

2009-09-22ksm: the mm interface to ksmHugh Dickins3-0/+58
This patch presents the mm interface to a dummy version of ksm.c, for better scrutiny of that interface: the real ksm.c follows later. When CONFIG_KSM is not set, madvise(2) reject MADV_MERGEABLE and MADV_UNMERGEABLE with EINVAL, since that seems more helpful than pretending that they can be serviced. But when CONFIG_KSM=y, accept them even if KSM is not currently running, and even on areas which KSM will not touch (e.g. hugetlb or shared file or special driver mappings). Like other madvices, report ENOMEM despite success if any area in the range is unmapped, and use EAGAIN to report out of memory. Define vma flag VM_MERGEABLE to identify an area on which KSM may try merging pages: leave it to ksm_madvise() to decide whether to set it. Define mm flag MMF_VM_MERGEABLE to identify an mm which might contain VM_MERGEABLE areas, to minimize callouts when forking or exiting. Based upon earlier patches by Chris Wright and Izik Eidus.

2009-09-22ksm: add mmu_notifier set_pte_at_notify()Izik Eidus1-0/+34
KSM is a linux driver that allows dynamicly sharing identical memory pages between one or more processes. Unlike tradtional page sharing that is made at the allocation of the memory, ksm do it dynamicly after the memory was created. Memory is periodically scanned; identical pages are identified and merged. The sharing is made in a transparent way to the processes that use it. Ksm is highly important for hypervisors (kvm), where in production enviorments there might be many copys of the same data data among the host memory. This kind of data can be: similar kernels, librarys, cache, and so on. Even that ksm was wrote for kvm, any userspace application that want to use it to share its data can try it. Ksm may be useful for any application that might have similar (page aligment) data strctures among the memory, ksm will find this data merge it to one copy, and even if it will be changed and thereforew copy on writed, ksm will merge it again as soon as it will be identical again. Another reason to consider using ksm is the fact that it might simplify alot the userspace code of application that want to use shared private data, instead that the application will mange shared area, ksm will do this for the application, and even write to this data will be allowed without any synchinization acts from the application. Ksm was designed to be a loadable module that doesn't change the VM code of linux. This patch: The set_pte_at_notify() macro allows setting a pte in the shadow page table directly, instead of flushing the shadow page table entry and then getting vmexit to set it. It uses a new change_pte() callback to do so. set_pte_at_notify() is an optimization for kvm, and other users of mmu_notifiers, for COW pages. It is useful for kvm when ksm is used, because it allows kvm not to have to receive vmexit and only then map the ksm page into the shadow page table, but instead map it directly at the same time as Linux maps the page into the host page table. Users of mmu_notifiers who don't implement new mmu_notifier_change_pte() callback will just receive the mmu_notifier_invalidate_page() callback.

2009-09-22mm: count only reclaimable lru pagesWu Fengguang1-9/+2
global_lru_pages() / zone_lru_pages() can be used in two ways: - to estimate max reclaimable pages in determine_dirtyable_memory() - to calculate the slab scan ratio When swap is full or not present, the anon lru lists are not reclaimable and also won't be scanned. So the anon pages shall not be counted in both usage scenarios. Also rename to _reclaimable_pages: now they are counting the possibly reclaimable lru pages. It can greatly (and correctly) increase the slab scan rate under high memory pressure (when most file pages have been reclaimed and swap is full/absent), thus reduce false OOM kills.

This new regulator_get_exclusive() API call allows these consumers to explicitly request this, documenting the assumptions that they are making. In order to simplify coding of such consumers the use count for regulators they request is forced to match the enabled state of the regulator when it is requested. This is not possible for consumers which can share regulators due to the need to keep track of the ownership of use counts. A new API call is used rather than an additional argument to the existing regulator_get() in order to avoid merge headaches with driver code in other trees.

2009-09-22regulator: Allow consumer supplies to be set up with dev_name()Mark Brown1-1/+6
Follow the approach suggested by Russell King and implemented by him in the clkdev API and allow consumer device supply mapings to be set up using the dev_name() for the consumer instead of the struct device. In order to avoid making existing machines instabuggy and creating merge issues the use of struct device is still supported for the time being. This resolves problems working with buses such as I2C which make the struct device available late providing that the final device name is known, which is the case for most embedded systems with fixed setups. Consumers must still use the struct device when calling regulator_get(). Signed-off-by: Mark Brown <broonie@opensource.wolfsonmicro.com> Signed-off-by: Liam Girdwood <lrg@slimlogic.co.uk>

2009-09-21backlight: Allow drivers to update the core, and generate events on changesMatthew Garrett1-0/+7
Certain hardware will send us events when the backlight brightness changes. Add a function to update the value in the core, and additionally send a uevent so that userspace can pop up appropriate UI. The uevents are flagged depending on whether the update originated in the kernel or from userspace, making it easier to only display UI at the appropriate time.
