Premit use of another algorithm than the default first-fit one. For
example a custom algorithm could be used to manage alignment requirements.
As I can't predict all the possible requirements/needs for all allocation
uses cases, I add a "free" field 'void *data' to pass any needed
information to the allocation function. For example 'data' could be used
to handle a structure where you store the alignment, the expected memory
bank, the requester device, or any information that could influence the
allocation algorithm.
An usage example may look like this:
struct my_pool_constraints {
int align;
int bank;
...
};
unsigned long my_custom_algo(unsigned long *map, unsigned long size,
unsigned long start, unsigned int nr, void *data)
{
struct my_pool_constraints *constraints = data;
...
deal with allocation contraints
...
return the index in bitmap where perform the allocation
}
void create_my_pool()
{
struct my_pool_constraints c;
struct gen_pool *pool = gen_pool_create(...);
gen_pool_add(pool, ...);
gen_pool_set_algo(pool, my_custom_algo, &c);
}
Add of best-fit algorithm function:
most of the time best-fit is slower then first-fit but memory fragmentation
is lower. The random buffer allocation/free tests don't show any arithmetic
relation between the allocation time and fragmentation but the
best-fit algorithm
is sometime able to perform the allocation when the first-fit can't.
This new algorithm help to remove static allocations on ESRAM, a small but
fast on-chip RAM of few KB, used for high-performance uses cases like DMA
linked lists, graphic accelerators, encoders/decoders. On the Ux500
(in the ARM tree) we have define 5 ESRAM banks of 128 KB each and use of
static allocations becomes unmaintainable:
cd arch/arm/mach-ux500 && grep -r ESRAM .
./include/mach/db8500-regs.h:/* Base address and bank offsets for ESRAM */
./include/mach/db8500-regs.h:#define U8500_ESRAM_BASE 0x40000000
./include/mach/db8500-regs.h:#define U8500_ESRAM_BANK_SIZE 0x00020000
./include/mach/db8500-regs.h:#define U8500_ESRAM_BANK0 U8500_ESRAM_BASE
./include/mach/db8500-regs.h:#define U8500_ESRAM_BANK1 (U8500_ESRAM_BASE + U8500_ESRAM_BANK_SIZE)
./include/mach/db8500-regs.h:#define U8500_ESRAM_BANK2 (U8500_ESRAM_BANK1 + U8500_ESRAM_BANK_SIZE)
./include/mach/db8500-regs.h:#define U8500_ESRAM_BANK3 (U8500_ESRAM_BANK2 + U8500_ESRAM_BANK_SIZE)
./include/mach/db8500-regs.h:#define U8500_ESRAM_BANK4 (U8500_ESRAM_BANK3 + U8500_ESRAM_BANK_SIZE)
./include/mach/db8500-regs.h:#define U8500_ESRAM_DMA_LCPA_OFFSET 0x10000
./include/mach/db8500-regs.h:#define U8500_DMA_LCPA_BASE

./include/mach/db8500-regs.h:#define U8500_DMA_LCLA_BASE U8500_ESRAM_BANK4
I want to use genalloc to do dynamic allocations but I need to be able to
fine tune the allocation algorithm. I my case best-fit algorithm give
better results than first-fit, but it will not be true for every use case.

The result of converting an integer value to another signed integer type
that's unable to represent the original value is implementation defined.
(See notes in section 6.3.1.3 of the C standard.)
In match_number(), the result of simple_strtol() (which returns type long)
is assigned to a value of type int.
Instead, handle the result of simple_strtol() in a well-defined way, and
return -ERANGE if the result won't fit in the int variable used to hold
the parsed result.
No current callers pay attention to the particular error value returned,
so this additional return code shouldn't do any harm.

Pull RCU changes from Ingo Molnar:
0. 'idle RCU':
Adds RCU APIs that allow non-idle tasks to enter RCU idle mode and
provides x86 code to make use of them, allowing RCU to treat
user-mode execution as an extended quiescent state when the new
RCU_USER_QS kernel configuration parameter is specified. (Work is
in progress to port this to a few other architectures, but is not
part of this series.)
1. A fix for a latent bug that has been in RCU ever since the addition
of CPU stall warnings. This bug results in false-positive stall
warnings, but thus far only on embedded systems with severely
cut-down userspace configurations.
2. Further reductions in latency spikes for huge systems, along with
additional boot-time adaptation to the actual hardware.
This is a large change, as it moves RCU grace-period initialization
and cleanup, along with quiescent-state forcing, from softirq to a
kthread. However, it appears to be in quite good shape (famous
last words).
3. Updates to documentation and rcutorture, the latter category
including keeping statistics on CPU-hotplug latencies and fixing
some initialization-time races.
4. CPU-hotplug fixes and improvements.
5. Idle-loop fixes that were omitted on an earlier submission.
6. Miscellaneous fixes and improvements
In certain RCU configurations new kernel threads will show up (rcu_bh,
rcu_sched), showing RCU processing overhead.

When racing with CPU hotplug, percpu_counter_sum() can return negative
values for the number of observed events.
This confuses fprop_new_period(), which uses unsigned type and as a
result number of events is set to big *positive* number. From that
moment on, things go pear shaped and can result e.g. in division by
zero as denominator is later truncated to 32-bits.
This bug causes a divide-by-zero oops in bdi_dirty_limit() in Borislav's
3.6.0-rc6 based kernel.
Fix the issue by using a signed type in fprop_new_period(). That makes
us bail out from the function without doing anything (mistakenly)
thinking there are no events to age. That makes aging somewhat
inaccurate but getting accurate data would be rather hard.

There have been some recent bugs that were triggered only when
preemptible RCU's __rcu_read_unlock() was preempted just after setting
->rcu_read_lock_nesting to INT_MIN, which is a low-probability event.
Therefore, reproducing those bugs (to say nothing of gaining confidence
in alleged fixes) was quite difficult. This commit therefore creates
a new debug-only RCU kernel config option that forces a short delay
in __rcu_read_unlock() to increase the probability of those sorts of
bugs occurring.

Using multiple levels of %pV (a logging function with %pV

commit c4e00daaa9
("driver-core: extend dev_printk() to pass structured data")
changed __dev_printk and broke dynamic-debug's ability to control the
dynamic prefix of dev_dbg(dev,..).
commit af7f2158fd
("drivers-core: make structured logging play nice with dynamic-debug")
made a minimal correction.
The current dynamic debug code uses up to 3 recursion levels via %pV.
This can consume quite a bit of stack. Directly call printk_emit to
reduce the recursion depth.
These changes include:
dev_dbg:
o Create and use function create_syslog_header to format the syslog
header for printk_emit uses.
o Call create_syslog_header and neaten __dev_printk
o Make __dev_printk static not global
o Remove include header declaration of __dev_printk
o Remove now unused EXPORT_SYMBOL() of __dev_printk
o Whitespace neatening

o Remove KERN_DEBUG from dynamic_emit_prefix
o Call create_syslog_header and printk_emit

We are seeing a lot of sg_alloc_table allocation failures using the new

__sg_alloc_table that was re-writing the gfp_flags.
There is a comment in the code that suggest that there is an assumption
about the allocation coming from a memory pool. This was likely true
when sg lists were primarily used for disk I/O.

parameters which were used to specify error code to be injected. We could

but it seems overkill for this module.
This provides the ability to inject artifical errors to CPU notifier chain

# echo -1 > actions/CPU_DOWN_PREPARE/error
# echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
bash: echo: write error: Operation not permitted
Example2: inject CPU online error (-2 == -ENOENT)
# cd /sys/kernel/debug/notifier-error-inject/cpu

This patchset provides kernel modules that can be used to test the error
handling of notifier call chain failures by injecting artifical errors to
the following notifier chain callbacks.
* CPU notifier
* PM notifier
* memory hotplug notifier
* powerpc pSeries reconfig notifier
Example: Inject CPU offline error (-1 == -EPERM)
# cd /sys/kernel/debug/notifier-error-inject/cpu
# echo -1 > actions/CPU_DOWN_PREPARE/error
# echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
bash: echo: write error: Operation not permitted
The patchset also adds cpu and memory hotplug tests to
tools/testing/selftests These tests first do simple online and offline
test and then do fault injection tests if notifier error injection
module is available.
This patch:
The notifier error injection provides the ability to inject artifical
errors to specified notifier chain callbacks. It is useful to test the
error handling of notifier call chain failures.
This adds common basic functions to define which type of events can be
fail and to initialize the debugfs interface to control what error code
should be returned and which event should be failed.

There are many places in the kernel where the drivers print small buffers
as a hex string. This patch adds a support of the variable width buffer
to print it as a hex string with a delimiter. The idea came from Pavel
Roskin here: http://www.digipedia.pl/usenet/thread/18835/17449/
Sample output of
pr_info("buf[%d:%d] %*phC\n", from, len, len, &buf[from]);
could be look like this:
[ 0.726130] buf[51:8] e8:16:b6:ef:e3:74:45:6e
[ 0.750736] buf[59:15] 31:81:b8:3f:35:49:06:ae:df:32:06:05:4a:af:55
[ 0.757602] buf[17:5] ac:16:d5:2c:ef

When using ALT+SysRq+Q all the pointers are replaced with "pK-error" like
this:
[23153.208033] .base: pK-error
with echo h > /proc/sysrq-trigger it works:
[23107.776363] .base: ffff88023e60d540
The intent behind this behavior was to return "pK-error" in cases where
the %pK format specifier was used in interrupt context, because the
CAP_SYSLOG check wouldn't be meaningful. Clearly this should only apply
when kptr_restrict is actually enabled though.

scatterlist: add sg_alloc_table_from_pages function
This patch adds a new constructor for an sg table. The table is constructed
from an array of struct pages. All contiguous chunks of the pages are merged
into a single sg nodes. A user may provide an offset and a size of a buffer if
the buffer is not page-aligned.
The function is dedicated for DMABUF exporters which often perform conversion
from an page array to a scatterlist. Moreover the scatterlist should be
squashed in order to save memory and to speed-up the process of DMA mapping
using dma_map_sg.
The code is based on the patch 'v4l: vb2-dma-contig: add support for
scatterlist in userptr mode' and hints from Laurent Pinchart.

Pull networking changes from David S Miller:
1) Remove the ipv4 routing cache. Now lookups go directly into the FIB
trie and use prebuilt routes cached there.
No more garbage collection, no more rDOS attacks on the routing
cache. Instead we now get predictable and consistent performance,
no matter what the pattern of traffic we service.
This has been almost 2 years in the making. Special thanks to
Julian Anastasov, Eric Dumazet, Steffen Klassert, and others who
have helped along the way.
I'm sure that with a change of this magnitude there will be some
kind of fallout, but such things ought the be simple to fix at this
point. Luckily I'm not European so I'll be around all of August to
fix things :-)
The major stages of this work here are each fronted by a forced
merge commit whose commit message contains a top-level description
of the motivations and implementation issues.
2) Pre-demux of established ipv4 TCP sockets, saves a route demux on
input.
3) TCP SYN/ACK performance tweaks from Eric Dumazet.
4) Add namespace support for netfilter L4 conntrack helpers, from Gao
Feng.
5) Add config mechanism for Energy Efficient Ethernet to ethtool, from
Yuval Mintz.
6) Remove quadratic behavior from /proc/net/unix, from Eric Dumazet.
7) Support for connection tracker helpers in userspace, from Pablo
Neira Ayuso.
8) Allow userspace driven TX load balancing functions in TEAM driver,
from Jiri Pirko.
9) Kill off NLMSG_PUT and RTA_PUT macros, more gross stuff with
embedded gotos.
10) TCP Small Queues, essentially minimize the amount of TCP data queued
up in the packet scheduler layer. Whereas the existing BQL (Byte
Queue Limits) limits the pkt_sched --> netdevice queuing levels,
this controls the TCP --> pkt_sched queueing levels.
From Eric Dumazet.
11) Reduce the number of get_page/put_page ops done on SKB fragments,
from Alexander Duyck.
12) Implement protection against blind resets in TCP (RFC 5961), from
Eric Dumazet.
13) Support the client side of TCP Fast Open, basically the ability to
send data in the SYN exchange, from Yuchung Cheng.
Basically, the sender queues up data with a sendmsg() call using
MSG_FASTOPEN, then they do the connect() which emits the queued up
fastopen data.
14) Avoid all the problems we get into in TCP when timers or PMTU events
hit a locked socket. The TCP Small Queues changes added a
tcp_release_cb() that allows us to queue work up to the
release_sock() caller, and that's what we use here too. From Eric
Dumazet.
15) Zero copy on TX support for TUN driver, from Michael S. Tsirkin.

Pull RCU changes from Ingo Molnar:
"Quoting from Paul, the major features of this series are:
1. Preventing latency spikes of more than 200 microseconds for
kernels built with NR_CPUS=4096, which is reportedly becoming the
default for some distros. This is a first step, as it does not
help with systems that actually -have- 4096 CPUs (work on this case
is in progress, but is not yet ready for mainline).
This category also includes improving concurrency of rcu_barrier(),
placed here due to conflicts. Posted to LKML at:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/6/22/381
Note that patches 18-22 of that series have been defered to 3.7, as
they have not yet proven themselves to be mainline-ready (and yes,
these are the ones intended to get rid of RCU's latency spikes for
systems that actually have 4096 CPUs).
2. Updates to documentation and rcutorture fixes, the latter category
including improvements to rcu_barrier() testing. Posted to LKML at
http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1206.1/04094.html.

The stack_not_used() function in <linux/sched.h> assumes that stacks
grow downwards. This is not true on IA64 or PARISC, so this function
would walk off in the wrong direction and into the weeds.
Found on IA64 because of a compilation failure with recursive dependencies
on IA64_TASKSIZE and IA64_THREAD_INFO_SIZE.
Fixing the code is possible, but should be combined with other
infrastructure additions to set up the "canary" at the end of the stack.

Even though it has "bool" in the name, you have pass a u32 pointer to
debugfs_create_bool(). Otherwise you get memory corruption in
write_file_bool(). Fortunately in this case the corruption happens in
an alignment hole between variables so it doesn't cause any problems.

This patch adds the following structure:
struct netlink_kernel_cfg {
unsigned int groups;
void (*input)(struct sk_buff *skb);
struct mutex *cb_mutex;
};
That can be passed to netlink_kernel_create to set optional configurations
for netlink kernel sockets.
I've populated this structure by looking for NULL and zero parameters at the
existing code. The remaining parameters that always need to be set are still
left in the original interface.
That includes optional parameters for the netlink socket creation. This allows
easy extensibility of this interface in the future.
This patch also adapts all callers to use this new interface.

Implement code computing proportions of events of different type (like code in

us to have aging periods of fixed wallclock time which gives better proportion
estimates given the hugely varying throughput of different devices - previous
measuring of aging period by number of events has the problem that a reasonable
period length for a system with low-end USB stick is not a reasonable period
length for a system with high-end storage array resulting either in too slow
proportion updates or too fluctuating proportion updates.

The memory the parameter __key points to is used as an iterator in
btree_get_prev(), so if we save off a bkey() pointer in retry_key and
then assign that to __key, we'll end up corrupting the btree internals
when we do eg
longcpy(__key, bkey(geo, node, i), geo->keylen);
to return the key value. What we should do instead is use longcpy() to
copy the key value that retry_key points to __key.
This can cause a btree to get corrupted by seemingly read-only
operations such as btree_for_each_safe.

On an over-committed KVM system we got a:
"BUG: spinlock lockup on CPU#2, swapper/2/0"
message on the heavily contended virtio blk spinlock.
While we might want to reconsider the locking of virtio-blk
(lock is held while switching to the host) this patch tries to
make the message clearer: the lockup is only suspected.

This patch fixes bug in macro radix_tree_for_each_contig().
If radix_tree_next_slot() sees NULL in next slot it returns NULL, but following
radix_tree_next_chunk() switches iterating into next chunk. As result iterating
becomes non-contiguous and breaks vfs "splice" and all its users.

simply skip over it and continue processing the remaining options
(if any). Fix from Paul Moore.
5) SRIOV fixes for the mellanox driver from Jack orgenstein and Marcel

Previous code was using optimizations which were developed to work well
even on narrow-word CPUs (by today's standards). But Linux runs only on
32-bit and wider CPUs. We can use that.
First: using 32x32->64 multiply and trivial 32-bit shift, we can correctly
divide by 10 much larger numbers, and thus we can print groups of 9 digits
instead of groups of 5 digits.
Next: there are two algorithms to print larger numbers. One is generic:
divide by 1000000000 and repeatedly print groups of (up to) 9 digits.
It's conceptually simple, but requires an (unsigned long long) /
1000000000 division.
Second algorithm splits 64-bit unsigned long long into 16-bit chunks,
manipulates them cleverly and generates groups of 4 decimal digits. It so
happens that it does NOT require long long division.
If long is > 32 bits, division of 64-bit values is relatively easy, and we
will use the first algorithm. If long long is > 64 bits (strange
architecture with VERY large long long), second algorithm can't be used,
and we again use the first one.
Else (if long is 32 bits and long long is 64 bits) we use second one.
And third: there is a simple optimization which takes fast path not only
for zero as was done before, but for all one-digit numbers.
In all tested cases new code is faster than old one, in many cases by 30%,
in few cases by more than 50% (for example, on x86-32, conversion of
12345678). Code growth is ~0 in 32-bit case and ~130 bytes in 64-bit
case.
This patch is based upon an original from Michal Nazarewicz.

The '%p' output of the kernel's vsprintf() uses spec.field_width to
determine how many digits to output based on 2 * sizeof(void*) so that all
digits of a pointer are shown. ie. a pointer will be output as
"001A2B3C" instead of "1A2B3C". However, if the '#' flag is used in the
format (%#p), then the code doesn't take into account the width of the
'0x' prefix and will end up outputing "0x1A2B3C" instead of "0x001A2B3C".
This patch reworks the "pointer()" format hook to include 2 characters for
the '0x' prefix if the '#' flag is included.

f) Y bytes completed. inprogress and prev_inprogress are true.
At f), according to the comment, all_prev_completed becomes

Not much stuff this time. The only change to the IOMMU core code is the
addition of a handle to the fault handling code. A few updates to the
AMD IOMMU driver to work around new errata. The other patches are mostly
fixes and enhancements to the existing ARM IOMMU drivers and
documentation updates.
A new IOMMU driver for the Exynos platform was also underway but got
merged via the Samsung tree and is not part of this tree.

When a spinlock warning is printed we usually get
BUG: spinlock bad magic on CPU#0, modprobe/111
lock: 0xdff09f38, .magic: 00000000, .owner: /0, .owner_cpu: 0
but it's nicer to print the symbol for the lock if we have it so that we
can avoid 'grep dff09f38 /proc/kallsyms' to find out which lock it was.
Use kallsyms to print the symbol name so we get something a bit easier to
read
BUG: spinlock bad magic on CPU#0, modprobe/112
lock: test_lock, .magic: 00000000, .owner: <none>/-1, .owner_cpu: 0

Using %ps in a printk format will sometimes fail silently and print the
empty string if the address passed in does not match a symbol that
kallsyms knows about. But using %pS will fall back to printing the full
address if kallsyms can't find the symbol. Make %ps act the same as %pS
by falling back to printing the address.
While we're here also make %ps print the module that a symbol comes from
so that it matches what %pS already does. Take this simple function for
example (in a module):
static void test_printk(void)
{
int test;
pr_info("with pS: %pS\n", &test);
pr_info("with ps: %ps\n", &test);
