2016-12-14sparc: implement watchdog_nmi_enable and watchdog_nmi_disableBabu Moger1-1/+43
Implement functions watchdog_nmi_enable and watchdog_nmi_disable to enable/disable nmi watchdog. Sparc uses arch specific nmi watchdog handler. Currently, we do not have a way to enable/disable nmi watchdog dynamically. With these patches we can enable or disable arch specific nmi watchdogs using proc or sysctl interface. Example commands. To enable: echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/nmi_watchdog To disable: echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/nmi_watchdog It can also achieved using the sysctl parameter kernel.nmi_watchdog Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1478034826-43888-4-git-send-email-babu.moger@oracle.com Signed-off-by: Babu Moger <babu.moger@oracle.com> Acked-by: Don Zickus <dzickus@redhat.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Cc: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@suse.cz> Cc: Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org> Cc: Yaowei Bai <baiyaowei@cmss.chinamobile.com> Cc: Aaron Tomlin <atomlin@redhat.com> Cc: Ulrich Obergfell <uobergfe@redhat.com> Cc: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: Hidehiro Kawai <hidehiro.kawai.ez@hitachi.com> Cc: Josh Hunt <johunt@akamai.com> Cc: "David S.

2016-12-14kernel/watchdog.c: move hardlockup detector to separate fileBabu Moger3-230/+239
Separate hardlockup code from watchdog.c and move it to watchdog_hld.c. It is mostly straight forward. Remove everything inside CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTORS. This code will go to file watchdog_hld.c. Also update the makefile accordigly.

2016-12-14kernel/watchdog.c: move shared definitions to nmi.hBabu Moger2-24/+28
Patch series "Clean up watchdog handlers", v2. This is an attempt to cleanup watchdog handlers. Right now, kernel/watchdog.c implements both softlockup and hardlockup detectors. Softlockup code is generic. Hardlockup code is arch specific. Some architectures don't use hardlockup detectors. They use their own watchdog detectors. To make both these combination work, we have numerous #ifdefs in kernel/watchdog.c. We are trying here to make these handlers independent of each other. Also provide an interface for architectures to implement their own handlers. watchdog_nmi_enable and watchdog_nmi_disable will be defined as weak such that architectures can override its definitions. Thanks to Don Zickus for his suggestions. Here are our previous discussions http://www.spinics.net/lists/sparclinux/msg16543.html http://www.spinics.net/lists/sparclinux/msg16441.html This patch (of 3): Move shared macros and definitions to nmi.h so that watchdog.c, new file watchdog_hld.c or any other architecture specific handler can use those definitions.

2016-12-14ipc: msg, make msgrcv work with LONG_MINJiri Slaby1-1/+4
When LONG_MIN is passed to msgrcv, one would expect to recieve any message. But convert_mode does *msgtyp = -*msgtyp and -LONG_MIN is undefined. In particular, with my gcc -LONG_MIN produces -LONG_MIN again. So handle this case properly by assigning LONG_MAX to *msgtyp if LONG_MIN was specified as msgtyp to msgrcv. This code: long msg[] = { 100, 200 }; int m = msgget(IPC_PRIVATE, IPC_CREAT | 0644); msgsnd(m, &msg, sizeof(msg), 0); msgrcv(m, &msg, sizeof(msg), LONG_MIN, 0); produces currently nothing: msgget(IPC_PRIVATE, IPC_CREAT|0644) = 65538 msgsnd(65538, {100, "\310\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0"}, 16, 0) = 0 msgrcv(65538, ...

2016-12-14initramfs: allow again choice of the embedded initram compression algorithmFrancisco Blas Izquierdo Riera (klondike)1-0/+117
Choosing the appropriate compression option when using an embedded initramfs can result in significant size differences in the resulting data. This is caused by avoiding double compression of the initramfs contents. For example on my tests, choosing CONFIG_INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_NONE when compressing the kernel using XZ) results in up to 500KiB differences (9MiB to 8.5MiB) in the kernel size as the dictionary will not get polluted with uncomprensible data and may reuse kernel data too. Despite embedding an uncompressed initramfs, a user may want to allow for a compressed extra initramfs to be passed using the rd system, for example to boot a recovery system. 9ba4bcb645898d ("initramfs: read CONFIG_RD_ variables for initramfs compression") broke that behavior by making the choice based on CONFIG_RD_* instead of adding CONFIG_INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_LZ4. Saddly, CONFIG_RD_* is also used to choose the supported RD compression algorithms by the kernel and a user may want to support more than one. This patch also reverts commit 3e4e0f0a875 ("initramfs: remove "compression mode" choice") restoring back the "compression mode" choice and includes the CONFIG_INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_LZ4 option which was never added. As a result the following options are added or readed affecting the embedded initramfs compression: INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_NONE Do no compression INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_GZIP Compress using gzip INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_BZIP2 Compress using bzip2 INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_LZMA Compress using lzma INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_XZ Compress using xz INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_LZO Compress using lzo INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_LZ4 Compress using lz4 These depend on the corresponding CONFIG_RD_* option being set (except NONE which has no dependencies). This patch depends on the previous one (the previous version didn't) to simplify the way in which the algorithm is chosen and keep backwards compatibility with the behaviour introduced by 9ba4bcb645898 ("initramfs: read CONFIG_RD_ variables for initramfs compression").

2016-12-14kdb: call vkdb_printf() from vprintk_default() only when wantedPetr Mladek3-8/+5
kdb_trap_printk allows to pass normal printk() messages to kdb via vkdb_printk(). For example, it is used to get backtrace using the classic show_stack(), see kdb_show_stack(). vkdb_printf() tries to avoid a potential infinite loop by disabling the trap. But this approach is racy, for example: CPU1 CPU2 vkdb_printf() // assume that kdb_trap_printk == 0 saved_trap_printk = kdb_trap_printk; kdb_trap_printk = 0; kdb_show_stack() kdb_trap_printk++; Problem1: Now, a nested printk() on CPU0 calls vkdb_printf() even when it should have been disabled. It will not cause a deadlock but... // using the outdated saved value: 0 kdb_trap_printk = saved_trap_printk; kdb_trap_printk--; Problem2: Now, kdb_trap_printk == -1 and will stay like this. It means that all messages will get passed to kdb from now on. This patch removes the racy saved_trap_printk handling. Instead, the recursion is prevented by a check for the locked CPU. The solution is still kind of racy. A non-related printk(), from another process, might get trapped by vkdb_printf(). And the wanted printk() might not get trapped because kdb_printf_cpu is assigned. But this problem existed even with the original code. A proper solution would be to get_cpu() before setting kdb_trap_printk and trap messages only from this CPU. I am not sure if it is worth the effort, though. In fact, the race is very theoretical. When kdb is running any of the commands that use kdb_trap_printk there is a single active CPU and the other CPUs should be in a holding pen inside kgdb_cpu_enter(). The only time this is violated is when there is a timeout waiting for the other CPUs to report to the holding pen. Finally, note that the situation is a bit schizophrenic. vkdb_printf() explicitly allows recursion but only from KDB code that calls kdb_printf() directly. On the other hand, the generic printk() recursion is not allowed because it might cause an infinite loop. This is why we could not hide the decision inside vkdb_printf() easily.

2016-12-14kdb: properly synchronize vkdb_printf() calls with other CPUsPetr Mladek2-18/+13
kdb_printf_lock does not prevent other CPUs from entering the critical section because it is ignored when KDB_STATE_PRINTF_LOCK is set. The problematic situation might look like: CPU0 CPU1 vkdb_printf() if (!KDB_STATE(PRINTF_LOCK)) KDB_STATE_SET(PRINTF_LOCK); spin_lock_irqsave(&kdb_printf_lock, flags); vkdb_printf() if (!KDB_STATE(PRINTF_LOCK)) BANG: The PRINTF_LOCK state is set and CPU1 is entering the critical section without spinning on the lock. The problem is that the code tries to implement locking using two state variables that are not handled atomically. Well, we need a custom locking because we want to allow reentering the critical section on the very same CPU. Let's use solution from Petr Zijlstra that was proposed for a similar scenario, see https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20161018171513.734367391@infradead.org This patch uses the same trick with cmpxchg(). The only difference is that we want to handle only recursion from the same context and therefore we disable interrupts. In addition, KDB_STATE_PRINTF_LOCK is removed. In fact, we are not able to set it a non-racy way.

2016-12-14kdb: remove unused kdb_event handlingPetr Mladek3-4/+0
kdb_event state variable is only set but never checked in the kernel code. http://www.spinics.net/lists/kdb/msg01733.html suggests that this variable affected WARN_CONSOLE_UNLOCKED() in the original implementation. But this check never went upstream. The semantic is unclear and racy. The value is updated after the kdb_printf_lock is acquired and after it is released. It should be symmetric at minimum. The value should be manipulated either inside or outside the locked area. Fortunately, it seems that the original function is gone and we could simply remove the state variable.

2016-12-14kernel/debug/debug_core.c: more properly delay for secondary CPUsDouglas Anderson1-2/+2
We've got a delay loop waiting for secondary CPUs. That loop uses loops_per_jiffy. However, loops_per_jiffy doesn't actually mean how many tight loops make up a jiffy on all architectures. It is quite common to see things like this in the boot log: Calibrating delay loop (skipped), value calculated using timer frequency.. 48.00 BogoMIPS (lpj=24000) In my case I was seeing lots of cases where other CPUs timed out entering the debugger only to print their stack crawls shortly after the kdb> prompt was written. Elsewhere in kgdb we already use udelay(), so that should be safe enough to use to implement our timeout. We'll delay 1 ms for 1000 times, which should give us a full second of delay (just like the old code wanted) but allow us to notice that we're done every 1 ms.

2016-12-14igb: update driver to make use of DMA_ATTR_SKIP_CPU_SYNCAlexander Duyck1-20/+33
The ARM architecture provides a mechanism for deferring cache line invalidation in the case of map/unmap. This patch makes use of this mechanism to avoid unnecessary synchronization. A secondary effect of this change is that the portion of the page that has been synchronized for use by the CPU should be writable and could be passed up the stack (at least on ARM). The last bit that occurred to me is that on architectures where the sync_for_cpu call invalidates cache lines we were prefetching and then invalidating the first 128 bytes of the packet. To avoid that I have moved the sync up to before we perform the prefetch and allocate the skbuff so that we can actually make use of it.

2016-12-14dma: add calls for dma_map_page_attrs and dma_unmap_page_attrsAlexander Duyck1-7/+13
Add support for mapping and unmapping a page with attributes. The primary use for this is currently to allow for us to pass the DMA_ATTR_SKIP_CPU_SYNC attribute when mapping and unmapping a page. On some architectures such as ARM the synchronization has significant overhead and if we are already taking care of the sync_for_cpu and sync_for_device from the driver there isn't much need to handle this in the map/unmap calls as well.

2016-12-14arch/arc: add option to skip sync on DMA mappingAlexander Duyck1-1/+4
Patch series "Add support for DMA writable pages being writable by the network stack", v3. The first 19 patches in the set add support for the DMA attribute DMA_ATTR_SKIP_CPU_SYNC on multiple platforms/architectures. This is needed so that we can flag the calls to dma_map/unmap_page so that we do not invalidate cache lines that do not currently belong to the device. Instead we have to take care of this in the driver via a call to sync_single_range_for_cpu prior to freeing the Rx page. Patch 20 adds support for dma_map_page_attrs and dma_unmap_page_attrs so that we can unmap and map a page using the DMA_ATTR_SKIP_CPU_SYNC attribute. Patch 21 adds support for freeing a page that has multiple references being held by a single caller. This way we can free page fragments that were allocated by a given driver. The last 2 patches use these updates in the igb driver, and lay the groundwork to allow for us to reimplement the use of build_skb. This patch (of 23): This change allows us to pass DMA_ATTR_SKIP_CPU_SYNC which allows us to avoid invoking cache line invalidation if the driver will just handle it later via a sync_for_cpu or sync_for_device call.

2016-12-14kexec: export the value of phys_base instead of symbol addressBaoquan He2-4/+2
Currently in x86_64, the symbol address of phys_base is exported to vmcoreinfo. Dave Anderson complained this is really useless for his Crash implementation. Because in user-space utility Crash and Makedumpfile which exported vmcore information is mainly used for, value of phys_base is needed to covert virtual address of exported kernel symbol to physical address. Especially init_level4_pgt, if we want to access and go over the page table to look up a PA corresponding to VA, firstly we need calculate page_dir = SYMBOL(init_level4_pgt) - __START_KERNEL_map + phys_base; Now in Crash and Makedumpfile, we have to analyze the vmcore elf program header to get value of phys_base. As Dave said, it would be preferable if it were readily availabl in vmcoreinfo rather than depending upon the PT_LOAD semantics. Hence in this patch change to export the value of phys_base instead of its virtual address. And people also complained that KERNEL_IMAGE_SIZE exporting is x86_64 only, should be moved into arch dependent function arch_crash_save_vmcoreinfo. Do the moving in this patch.

2016-12-14Revert "kdump, vmcoreinfo: report memory sections virtual addresses"Baoquan He2-9/+0
This reverts commit 0549a3c02efb ("kdump, vmcoreinfo: report memory sections virtual addresses"). Commit 0549a3c02efb tells the userspace utility makedumpfile the randomized base address of these memmory sections when mm kaslr is enabled. However the following patch "kexec: export the value of phys_base instead of symbol address" makes makedumpfile not need these addresses any more. Besides we should use VMCOREINFO_NUMBER to export the value of the variable so that we can use the existing number_table mechanism of Makedumpfile to fetch it. So revert it now. If needed we can add it later. http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/kexec/2016-October/017540.html Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1478568596-30060-1-git-send-email-bhe@redhat.com Signed-off-by: Baoquan He <bhe@redhat.com> Cc: Thomas Garnier <thgarnie@google.com> Cc: Baoquan He <bhe@redhat.com> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com> Cc: "H .

I was amused to find "unsafe core_pattern" warning having these lines in /etc/sysctl.conf: fs.suid_dumpable=2 kernel.core_pattern=/core/core-%e-%p-%E kernel.core_uses_pid=0 Turns out kernel is formally right. Default core_pattern is just "core", which doesn't qualify for secure path while setting suid.dumpable. Hint admins about solution, clarify sysctl names, delete unnecessary '\' characters (string literals are concatenated regardless) and reformat for easier grepping.

2016-12-14signals: avoid unnecessary taking of sighand->siglockWaiman Long2-0/+24
When running certain database workload on a high-end system with many CPUs, it was found that spinlock contention in the sigprocmask syscalls became a significant portion of the overall CPU cycles as shown below. 9.30% 9.30% 905387 dataserver /proc/kcore 0x7fff8163f4d2 [k] _raw_spin_lock_irq | ---_raw_spin_lock_irq | |--99.34%-- __set_current_blocked | sigprocmask | sys_rt_sigprocmask | system_call_fastpath | | | |--50.63%-- __swapcontext | | | | | |--99.91%-- upsleepgeneric | | | |--49.36%-- __setcontext | | ktskRun Looking further into the swapcontext function in glibc, it was found that the function always call sigprocmask() without checking if there are changes in the signal mask. A check was added to the __set_current_blocked() function to avoid taking the sighand->siglock spinlock if there is no change in the signal mask. This will prevent unneeded spinlock contention when many threads are trying to call sigprocmask(). With this patch applied, the spinlock contention in sigprocmask() was gone.

2016-12-14mm, compaction: allow compaction for GFP_NOFS requestsMichal Hocko1-3/+14
compaction has been disabled for GFP_NOFS and GFP_NOIO requests since the direct compaction was introduced by commit 56de7263fcf3 ("mm: compaction: direct compact when a high-order allocation fails"). The main reason is that the migration of page cache pages might recurse back to fs/io layer and we could potentially deadlock. This is overly conservative because all the anonymous memory is migrateable in the GFP_NOFS context just fine. This might be a large portion of the memory in many/most workkloads. Remove the GFP_NOFS restriction and make sure that we skip all fs pages (those with a mapping) while isolating pages to be migrated. We cannot consider clean fs pages because they might need a metadata update so only isolate pages without any mapping for nofs requests. The effect of this patch will be probably very limited in many/most workloads because higher order GFP_NOFS requests are quite rare, although different configurations might lead to very different results. David Chinner has mentioned a heavy metadata workload with 64kB block which to quote him: : Unfortunately, there was an era of cargo cult configuration tweaks in the : Ceph community that has resulted in a large number of production machines : with XFS filesystems configured this way. And a lot of them store large : numbers of small files and run under significant sustained memory : pressure. : : I slowly working towards getting rid of these high order allocations and : replacing them with the equivalent number of single page allocations, but : I haven't got that (complex) change working yet. We can do the following to simulate that workload: $ mkfs.xfs -f -n size=64k <dev> $ mount <dev> /mnt/scratch $ time ./fs_mark -D 10000 -S0 -n 100000 -s 0 -L 32 \ -d /mnt/scratch/0 -d /mnt/scratch/1 \ -d /mnt/scratch/2 -d /mnt/scratch/3 \ -d /mnt/scratch/4 -d /mnt/scratch/5 \ -d /mnt/scratch/6 -d /mnt/scratch/7 \ -d /mnt/scratch/8 -d /mnt/scratch/9 \ -d /mnt/scratch/10 -d /mnt/scratch/11 \ -d /mnt/scratch/12 -d /mnt/scratch/13 \ -d /mnt/scratch/14 -d /mnt/scratch/15 and indeed is hammers the system with many high order GFP_NOFS requests as per a simle tracepoint during the load: $ echo '!(gfp_flags & 0x80) && (gfp_flags &0x400000)' > $TRACE_MNT/events/kmem/mm_page_alloc/filter I am getting 5287609 order=0 37 order=1 1594905 order=2 3048439 order=3 6699207 order=4 66645 order=5 My testing was done in a kvm guest so performance numbers should be taken with a grain of salt but there seems to be a difference when the patch is applied: * Original kernel FSUse% Count Size Files/sec App Overhead 1 1600000 0 4300.1 20745838 3 3200000 0 4239.9 23849857 5 4800000 0 4243.4 25939543 6 6400000 0 4248.4 19514050 8 8000000 0 4262.1 20796169 9 9600000 0 4257.6 21288675 11 11200000 0 4259.7 19375120 13 12800000 0 4220.7 22734141 14 14400000 0 4238.5 31936458 16 16000000 0 4231.5 23409901 18 17600000 0 4045.3 23577700 19 19200000 0 2783.4 58299526 21 20800000 0 2678.2 40616302 23 22400000 0 2693.5 83973996 and xfs complaining about memory allocation not making progress [ 2304.372647] XFS: fs_mark(3289) possible memory allocation deadlock size 65624 in kmem_alloc (mode:0x2408240) [ 2304.443323] XFS: fs_mark(3285) possible memory allocation deadlock size 65728 in kmem_alloc (mode:0x2408240) [ 4796.772477] XFS: fs_mark(3424) possible memory allocation deadlock size 46936 in kmem_alloc (mode:0x2408240) [ 4796.775329] XFS: fs_mark(3423) possible memory allocation deadlock size 51416 in kmem_alloc (mode:0x2408240) [ 4797.388808] XFS: fs_mark(3424) possible memory allocation deadlock size 65728 in kmem_alloc (mode:0x2408240) * Patched kernel FSUse% Count Size Files/sec App Overhead 1 1600000 0 4289.1 19243934 3 3200000 0 4241.6 32828865 5 4800000 0 4248.7 32884693 6 6400000 0 4314.4 19608921 8 8000000 0 4269.9 24953292 9 9600000 0 4270.7 33235572 11 11200000 0 4346.4 40817101 13 12800000 0 4285.3 29972397 14 14400000 0 4297.2 20539765 16 16000000 0 4219.6 18596767 18 17600000 0 4273.8 49611187 19 19200000 0 4300.4 27944451 21 20800000 0 4270.6 22324585 22 22400000 0 4317.6 22650382 24 24000000 0 4065.2 22297964 So the dropdown at Count 19200000 didn't happen and there was only a single warning about allocation not making progress [ 3063.815003] XFS: fs_mark(3272) possible memory allocation deadlock size 65624 in kmem_alloc (mode:0x2408240) This suggests that the patch has helped even though there is not all that much of anonymous memory as the workload mostly generates fs metadata. I assume the success rate would be higher with more anonymous memory which should be the case in many workloads.

2016-12-14kernel/watchdog: use nmi registers snapshot in hardlockup handlerKonstantin Khlebnikov1-1/+0
NMI handler doesn't call set_irq_regs(), it's set only by normal IRQ. Thus get_irq_regs() returns NULL or stale registers snapshot with IP/SP pointing to the code interrupted by IRQ which was interrupted by NMI. NULL isn't a problem: in this case watchdog calls dump_stack() and prints full stack trace including NMI. But if we're stuck in IRQ handler then NMI watchlog will print stack trace without IRQ part at all. This patch uses registers snapshot passed into NMI handler as arguments: these registers point exactly to the instruction interrupted by NMI.

Commit 262c5e86fec7 ("printk/btrfs: handle more message headers") triggers: warning: `ratelimit' may be used uninitialized in this function with gcc (4.1.2) and probably many other versions. The code actually is correct but a bit twisted. Let's make it more straightforward and set the default values at the beginning.
