In general, every tracepoint should be zero overhead if it is disabled.
However, trace_mm_page_alloc_extfrag() is one of exception. It evaluate
"new_type == start_migratetype" even if tracepoint is disabled.
However, the code can be moved into tracepoint's TP_fast_assign() and
TP_fast_assign exist exactly such purpose. This patch does it.

When there are processes heavily creating small files while sync(2) is
running, it can easily happen that quite some new files are created
between WB_SYNC_NONE and WB_SYNC_ALL pass of sync(2). That can happen
especially if there are several busy filesystems (remember that sync
traverses filesystems sequentially and waits in WB_SYNC_ALL phase on one
fs before starting it on another fs). Because WB_SYNC_ALL pass is slow
(e.g. causes a transaction commit and cache flush for each inode in
ext3), resulting sync(2) times are rather large.
The following script reproduces the problem:
function run_writers
{
for (( i = 0; i < 10; i++ )); do
mkdir $1/dir$i
for (( j = 0; j < 40000; j++ )); do
dd if=/dev/zero of=$1/dir$i/$j bs=4k count=4 &>/dev/null
done &
done
}
for dir in "$@"; do
run_writers $dir
done
sleep 40
time sync
Fix the problem by disregarding inodes dirtied after sync(2) was called
in the WB_SYNC_ALL pass. To allow for this, sync_inodes_sb() now takes
a time stamp when sync has started which is used for setting up work for
flusher threads.
To give some numbers, when above script is run on two ext4 filesystems
on simple SATA drive, the average sync time from 10 runs is 267.549
seconds with standard deviation 104.799426. With the patched kernel,
the average sync time from 10 runs is 2.995 seconds with standard
deviation 0.096.

There are no too intrusive changes in this update batch. The biggest
LOC is found in the new DICE driver, and other small changes are
scattered over the whole sound subtree (which is a common pattern).
Below are highlights:
- ALSA core:
* Memory allocation support with genpool
* Fix blocking in drain ioctl of compress_offload
- HD-audio:
* Improved AMD HDMI supports
* Intel HDMI detection improvements
* thinkpad_acpi mute-key integration
* New PCI ID, New ALC255,285,293 codecs, CX20952
- USB-audio:
* New buffer size management
* Clean up endpoint handling codes
- ASoC:
* Further work on the dmaengine helpers, including support for
configuring the parameters for DMA by reading the capabilities of
the DMA controller which removes some guesswork and magic numbers
from drivers.
* A refresh of the documentation.
* Conversions of many drivers to direct regmap API usage in order to
allow the ASoC level register I/O code to be removed, this will
hopefully be completed by v3.14.
* Support for using async register I/O in DAPM, reducing the time
taken to implement power transitions on systems that support it.

The trace event filters are still tied to event calls rather than
event files, which means you don't get what you'd expect when using
filters in the multibuffer case:
Before:
# echo 'bytes_alloc > 8192' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter
bytes_alloc > 8192
# mkdir /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/instances/test1
# echo 'bytes_alloc > 2048' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/instances/test1/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter
bytes_alloc > 2048
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/instances/test1/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter
bytes_alloc > 2048
Setting the filter in tracing/instances/test1/events shouldn't affect
the same event in tracing/events as it does above.
After:
# echo 'bytes_alloc > 8192' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter
bytes_alloc > 8192
# mkdir /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/instances/test1
# echo 'bytes_alloc > 2048' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/instances/test1/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter
bytes_alloc > 8192
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/instances/test1/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter
bytes_alloc > 2048
We'd like to just move the filter directly from ftrace_event_call to
ftrace_event_file, but there are a couple cases that don't yet have
multibuffer support and therefore have to continue using the current
event_call-based filters. For those cases, a new USE_CALL_FILTER bit
is added to the event_call flags, whose main purpose is to keep the
old behavior for those cases until they can be updated with
multibuffer support; at that point, the USE_CALL_FILTER flag (and the
new associated call_filter_check_discard() function) can go away.
The multibuffer support also made filter_current_check_discard()
redundant, so this change removes that function as well and replaces
it with filter_check_discard() (or call_filter_check_discard() as
appropriate).

The loops which SPI controller drivers use to process the list of transfers
in a spi_message are typically very similar and have some error prone areas
such as the handling of /CS. Help simplify drivers by factoring this code
out into the core - if drivers provide a transfer_one() function instead
of a transfer_one_message() function the core will handle processing at the
message level.
/CS can be controlled by either setting cs_gpio or providing a set_cs
function. If this is not possible for hardware reasons then both can be
omitted and the driver should continue to implement manual /CS handling.
This is a first step in refactoring and it is expected that there will be
further enhancements, for example factoring out of the mapping of transfers
for DMA and the initiation and completion of interrupt driven transfers.

Instead of using the random driver's ad-hoc DEBUG_ENT() mechanism, use

The unpacked_lun field in the SCSI target tracepoints should be
initialized with cmd->orig_fe_lun rather than cmd->se_lun->unpacked_lun
for two reasons:
- most importantly, if we are in the cmd_complete tracepoint
returning a check condition due to no LUN found, cmd->se_lun will
be NULL and we'll crash trying to dereference it.
- also, in any case, cmd->se_lun->unpacked_lun is an internal index
into the target's internal set of LUNs; cmd->orig_fe_lun is much
more useful and interesting, since it's the value the initiator
actually sent.

Ftrace is currently not able to detect when SWIOTLB has to do double buffering.
Under Xen you can only see it indirectly in function_graph, when
xen_swiotlb_map_page() doesn't stop after range_straddles_page_boundary(), but
calls spinlock functions, memcpy() and xen_phys_to_bus() as well. This patch
introduces the swiotlb:swiotlb_bounced event, which also prints out the
following informations to help you find out why bouncing happened:
dev_name: 0000:08:00.0 dma_mask=ffffffffffffffff dev_addr=9149f000 size=32768
swiotlb_force=0
If you use Xen, and (dev_addr + size + 1) > dma_mask, the buffer is out of the
device's DMA range. If swiotlb_force == 1, you should really change the kernel
parameters. Otherwise, the buffer is not contiguous in mfn space.

When tracing switching, an external tracer needs a way to bootstrap
its knowledge of the logical<->physical CPU mapping.
This patch adds a sysfs attribute trace_trigger. A write to this
attribute will generate a power:cpu_migrate_current event for each
online CPU, indicating the current physical CPU for each logical
CPU.
Activating or deactivating the switcher also generates these
events, so that the tracer knows about the resulting remapping of
affected CPUs.
Signed-off-by: Dave Martin <dave.martin@linaro.org>
This patch adds simple trace events to the b.L switcher code
to allow tracing of CPU migration events.
To make use of the trace events, you will need:
CONFIG_FTRACE=y
CONFIG_ENABLE_DEFAULT_TRACERS=y
The following events are added:
* power:cpu_migrate_begin
* power:cpu_migrate_finish
each with the following data:
u64 timestamp;
u32 cpu_hwid;
power:cpu_migrate_begin occurs immediately before the
switcher-specific migration operations start.
power:cpu_migrate_finish occurs immediately when migration is
completed.
The cpu_hwid field contains the ID fields of the MPIDR.
* For power:cpu_migrate_begin, cpu_hwid is the ID of the outbound
physical CPU (equivalent to (from_phys_cpu,from_phys_cluster)).
* For power:cpu_migrate_finish, cpu_hwid is the ID of the inbound
physical CPU (equivalent to (to_phys_cpu,to_phys_cluster)).
By design, the cpu_hwid field is masked in the same way as the
device tree cpu node reg property, allowing direct correlation to
the DT description of the hardware.
The timestamp is added in order to minimise timing noise. An
accurate system-wide clock should be used for generating this
(hopefully getnstimeofday is appropriate, but it could be changed).
It could be any monotonic shared clock, since the aim is to allow
accurate deltas to be computed. We don't necessarily care about
accurate synchronisation with wall clock time.
In practice, each switch takes place on a single logical CPU,
and the trace infrastructure should guarantee that events are
well-ordered with respect to a single logical CPU.

The event-tracing macros do not like bool tracing arguments, so this
commit makes them be of type char. This change has the knock-on effect
of making it illegal to pass a pointer into one of these arguments, so
also change rcutiny's first call to trace_rcu_batch_end() to convert
from pointer to boolean, prefixing with "!!".

This is a fairly large batch of fixes, performance improvements, and

We've included Stefan Behren's work to index subvolume UUIDs, which is
targeted at speeding up send/receive with many subvolumes or snapshots
in place. It closes a long standing performance issue that was built
in to the disk format.
Mark Fasheh's offline dedup work is also here. In this case offline
means the FS is mounted and active, but the dedup work is not done
inline during file IO. This is a building block where utilities are
able to ask the FS to dedup a series of extents. The kernel takes
care of verifying the data involved really is the same. Today this
involves reading both extents, but we'll continue to evolve the

In the current code, the value of fallback_migratetype that is printed
using the mm_page_alloc_extfrag tracepoint, is the value of the
migratetype *after* it has been set to the preferred migratetype (if the
ownership was changed). Obviously that wouldn't have been the original
intent. (We already have a separate 'change_ownership' field to tell
whether the ownership of the pageblock was changed from the
fallback_migratetype to the preferred type.)
The intent of the fallback_migratetype field is to show the migratetype
from which we borrowed pages in order to satisfy the allocation request.
So fix the code to print that value correctly.

After applied the commit (4a092d73), we have reduced the number of
source files that need to #include ext4_extents.h. But we can do
better.
This commit defines ext4_zeroout_es() in extents.c and move
EXT_MAX_BLOCKS into ext4.h in order not to include ext4_extents.h in
indirect.c and ioctl.c. Meanwhile we just need to include this file in
extent_status.c when ES_AGGRESSIVE_TEST is defined. Otherwise, this
commit removes a duplicated declaration in trace/events/ext4.h.
After applied this patch, we just need to include ext4_extents.h file
in {super,migrate,move_extents,extents}.c, and it is easy for us to

When we read in an extent tree leaf block from disk, arrange to have
all of its entries cached. In nearly all cases the in-memory
representation will be more compact than the on-disk representation in
the buffer cache, and it allows us to get the information without
having to traverse the extent tree for successive extents.

Don't use an unsigned long long for the es_status flags; this requires
that we pass 64-bit values around which is painful on 32-bit systems.
Instead pass the extent status flags around using the low 4 bits of an
unsigned int, and shift them into place when we are reading or writing
es_pblk.

perf_trace_buf_prepare() + perf_trace_buf_submit(task => NULL)
make no sense if hlist_empty(head). Change perf_trace_##call()
to check ->perf_events beforehand and do nothing if it is empty.
This removes the overhead for tasks without events associated
with them. For example, "perf record -e sched:sched_switch -p1"
attaches the counter(s) to the single task, but every task in
system will do perf_trace_buf_prepare/submit() just to realize
that it was not attached to this event.
However, we can only do this if __task == NULL, so we also add
the __builtin_constant_p(__task) check.
With this patch "perf bench sched pipe" shows approximately 4%
improvement when "perf record -p1" runs in parallel, many thanks
to Steven for the testing.

The next patch tries to avoid the costly perf_trace_buf_* calls
when possible but there is a problem. We can only do this if
__task == NULL, perf_tp_event(task != NULL) has the additional
code for this case.
Unfortunately, TP_perf_assign/__perf_xxx which changes the default
values of __count/__task variables for perf_trace_buf_submit() is
called "too late", after we already did perf_trace_buf_prepare(),
and the optimization above can't work.
So this patch simply embeds __perf_xxx() into TP_ARGS(), this way
DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS() can use the result of assignments hidden in
"args" right after ftrace_get_offsets_##call() which is mostly
trivial. This allows us to have the fast-path "__task != NULL"
check at the start, see the next patch.

To simplify the review of the next patches:
1. We are going to reimplent __perf_task/counter and embedd them
into TP_ARGS(). expand TRACE_EVENT(sched_stat_runtime) into
DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS() + DEFINE_EVENT(), this way they can use
different TP_ARGS's.
2. Change perf_trace_##call() macro to do perf_fetch_caller_regs()
right before perf_trace_buf_prepare().
This way it evaluates TP_ARGS() asap, the next patch explores
this fact.
Note: after 87f44bbc perf_trace_buf_prepare() doesn't need
"struct pt_regs *regs", perhaps it makes sense to remove this
argument. And perhaps we can teach perf_trace_buf_submit()
to accept regs == NULL and do fetch_caller_regs(CALLER_ADDR1)
in this case.
3. Cosmetic, but the typecast from "void*" buys nothing. It just
adds the noise, remove it.

All the RCU tracepoints and functions that reference char pointers do
so with just 'char *' even though they do not modify the contents of
the string itself. This will cause warnings if a const char * is used
in one of these functions.
The RCU tracepoints store the pointer to the string to refer back to them
when the trace output is displayed. As this can be minutes, hours or
even days later, those strings had better be constant.
This change also opens the door to allow the RCU tracepoint strings and
their addresses to be exported so that userspace tracing tools can
translate the contents of the pointers of the RCU tracepoints.

Some of the fixes need to go back to 3.10. They are minor, and deal mostly
with incorrect ref counting in accessing event files.
There was a couple of optimizations that should have perf perform a bit
better when accessing trace events.
And some various clean ups. Some of the clean ups are necessary to help
in a fix to a theoretical race between opening a event file and
deleting that event.

were added to 3.10, which includes several bug fixes that have been
marked for stable.
As for new features, there were a few, but nothing to write to LWN about.
These include:
New function trigger called "dump" and "cpudump" that will cause
ftrace to dump its buffer to the console when the function is called.
The difference between "dump" and "cpudump" is that "dump" will dump
the entire contents of the ftrace buffer, where as "cpudump" will only
dump the contents of the ftrace buffer for the CPU that called the function.
Another small enhancement is a new sysctl switch called "traceoff_on_warning"
which, when enabled, will disable tracing if any WARN_ON() is triggered.
This is useful if you want to debug what caused a warning and do not
want to risk losing your trace data by the ring buffer overwriting the
data before you can disable it. There's also a kernel command line
option that will make this enabled at boot up called the same thing.

Pull tracing changes from Steven Rostedt:
"The majority of the changes here are cleanups for the large changes
that were added to 3.10, which includes several bug fixes that have
been marked for stable.
As for new features, there were a few, but nothing to write to LWN
about. These include:
New function trigger called "dump" and "cpudump" that will cause
ftrace to dump its buffer to the console when the function is called.
The difference between "dump" and "cpudump" is that "dump" will dump
the entire contents of the ftrace buffer, where as "cpudump" will only
dump the contents of the ftrace buffer for the CPU that called the
function.
Another small enhancement is a new sysctl switch called
"traceoff_on_warning" which, when enabled, will disable tracing if any
WARN_ON() is triggered. This is useful if you want to debug what
caused a warning and do not want to risk losing your trace data by the
ring buffer overwriting the data before you can disable it. There's
also a kernel command line option that will make this enabled at boot
up called the same thing"

Andrew Perepechko reported a problem whereby pages are being prematurely
evicted as the mark_page_accessed() hint is ignored for pages that are
currently on a pagevec --
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-ext4/msg37340.html .
Alexey Lyahkov and Robin Dong have also reported problems recently that
could be due to hot pages reaching the end of the inactive list too
quickly and be reclaimed.
Rather than addressing this on a per-filesystem basis, this series aims
to fix the mark_page_accessed() interface by deferring what LRU a page
is added to pagevec drain time and allowing mark_page_accessed() to call
SetPageActive on a pagevec page.
Patch 1 adds two tracepoints for LRU page activation and insertion. Using
these processes it's possible to build a model of pages in the
LRU that can be processed offline.
Patch 2 defers making the decision on what LRU to add a page to until when
the pagevec is drained.
Patch 3 searches the local pagevec for pages to mark PageActive on
mark_page_accessed. The changelog explains why only the local
pagevec is examined.
Patches 4 and 5 tidy up the API.
postmark, a dd-based test and fs-mark both single and threaded mode were
run but none of them showed any performance degradation or gain as a
result of the patch.
Using patch 1, I built a *very* basic model of the LRU to examine
offline what the average age of different page types on the LRU were in
milliseconds. Of course, capturing the trace distorts the test as it's
written to local disk but it does not matter for the purposes of this
test. The average age of pages in milliseconds were
vanilla deferdrain
Average age mapped anon: 1454 1250
Average age mapped file: 127841 155552
Average age unmapped anon: 85 235
Average age unmapped file: 73633 38884
Average age unmapped buffers: 74054 116155
The LRU activity was mostly files which you'd expect for a dd-based
workload. Note that the average age of buffer pages is increased by the
series and it is expected this is due to the fact that the buffer pages
are now getting added to the active list when drained from the pagevecs.
Note that the average age of the unmapped file data is decreased as they
are still added to the inactive list and are reclaimed before the
buffers.
There is no guarantee this is a universal win for all workloads and it
would be nice if the filesystem people gave some thought as to whether
this decision is generally a win or a loss.
This patch:
Using these tracepoints it is possible to model LRU activity and the
average residency of pages of different types. This can be used to
debug problems related to premature reclaim of pages of particular
types.

Merge tag 'pm+acpi-3.11-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm
Pull power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"This time the total number of ACPI commits is slightly greater than
the number of cpufreq commits, but Viresh Kumar (who works on cpufreq)
remains the most active patch submitter.
To me, the most significant change is the addition of offline/online
device operations to the driver core (with the Greg's blessing) and
the related modifications of the ACPI core hotplug code. Next are the
freezer updates from Colin Cross that should make the freezing of
tasks a bit less heavy weight.
We also have a couple of regression fixes, a number of fixes for
issues that have not been identified as regressions, two new drivers
and a bunch of cleanups all over.
Highlights:
- Hotplug changes to support graceful hot-removal failures.
It sometimes is necessary to fail device hot-removal operations
gracefully if they cannot be carried out completely. For example,
if memory from a memory module being hot-removed has been allocated
for the kernel's own use and cannot be moved elsewhere, it's
desirable to fail the hot-removal operation in a graceful way
rather than to crash the kernel, but currenty a success or a kernel
crash are the only possible outcomes of an attempted memory
hot-removal. Needless to say, that is not a very attractive
alternative and it had to be addressed.
However, in order to make it work for memory, I first had to make
it work for CPUs and for this purpose I needed to modify the ACPI
processor driver. It's been split into two parts, a resident one
handling the low-level initialization/cleanup and a modular one
playing the actual driver's role (but it binds to the CPU system
device objects rather than to the ACPI device objects representing
processors). That's been sort of like a live brain surgery on a
patient who's riding a bike.
So this is a little scary, but since we found and fixed a couple of
regressions it caused to happen during the early linux-next testing
(a month ago), nobody has complained.
As a bonus we remove some duplicated ACPI hotplug code, because the
ACPI-based CPU hotplug is now going to use the common ACPI hotplug
code.
- Lighter weight freezing of tasks.
These changes from Colin Cross and Mandeep Singh Baines are
targeted at making the freezing of tasks a bit less heavy weight
operation. They reduce the number of tasks woken up every time
during the freezing, by using the observation that the freezer
simply doesn't need to wake up some of them and wait for them all
to call refrigerator(). The time needed for the freezer to decide
to report a failure is reduced too.
Also reintroduced is the check causing a lockdep warining to
trigger when try_to_freeze() is called with locks held (which is
generally unsafe and shouldn't happen).
- cpufreq updates
First off, a commit from Srivatsa S Bhat fixes a resume regression
introduced during the 3.10 cycle causing some cpufreq sysfs
attributes to return wrong values to user space after resume. The
fix is kind of fresh, but also it's pretty obvious once Srivatsa
has identified the root cause.
Second, we have a new freqdomain_cpus sysfs attribute for the
acpi-cpufreq driver to provide information previously available via
related_cpus. From Lan Tianyu.
Finally, we fix a number of issues, mostly related to the
CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notifier and cpufreq Kconfig options and clean
up some code. The majority of changes from Viresh Kumar with bits
from Jacob Shin, Heiko Stübner, Xiaoguang Chen, Ezequiel Garcia,
Arnd Bergmann, and Tang Yuantian.
- ACPICA update
A usual bunch of updates from the ACPICA upstream.
During the 3.4 cycle we introduced support for ACPI 5 extended
sleep registers, but they are only supposed to be used if the
HW-reduced mode bit is set in the FADT flags and the code attempted
to use them without checking that bit. That caused suspend/resume
regressions to happen on some systems. Fix from Lv Zheng causes
those registers to be used only if the HW-reduced mode bit is set.
Apart from this some other ACPICA bugs are fixed and code cleanups
are made by Bob Moore, Tomasz Nowicki, Lv Zheng, Chao Guan, and
Zhang Rui.
- cpuidle updates
New driver for Xilinx Zynq processors is added by Michal Simek.
Multidriver support simplification, addition of some missing
kerneldoc comments and Kconfig-related fixes come from Daniel
Lezcano.
- ACPI power management updates
Changes to make suspend/resume work correctly in Xen guests from
Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk, sparse warning fix from Fengguang Wu and
cleanups and fixes of the ACPI device power state selection
routine.
- ACPI documentation updates
Some previously missing pieces of ACPI documentation are added by
Lv Zheng and Aaron Lu (hopefully, that will help people to
uderstand how the ACPI subsystem works) and one outdated doc is
updated by Hanjun Guo.
- Assorted ACPI updates
We finally nailed down the IA-64 issue that was the reason for
reverting commit 9f29ab11dd ("ACPI / scan: do not match drivers
against objects having scan handlers"), so we can fix it and move
the ACPI scan handler check added to the ACPI video driver back to
the core.
A mechanism for adding CMOS RTC address space handlers is
introduced by Lan Tianyu to allow some EC-related breakage to be
fixed on some systems.
A spec-compliant implementation of acpi_os_get_timer() is added by
Mika Westerberg.
The evaluation of _STA is added to do_acpi_find_child() to avoid
situations in which a pointer to a disabled device object is
returned instead of an enabled one with the same _ADR value. From
Jeff Wu.
Intel BayTrail PCH (Platform Controller Hub) support is added to
the ACPI driver for Intel Low-Power Subsystems (LPSS) and that
driver is modified to work around a couple of known BIOS issues.
Changes from Mika Westerberg and Heikki Krogerus.
The EC driver is fixed by Vasiliy Kulikov to use get_user() and
put_user() instead of dereferencing user space pointers blindly.
Code cleanups are made by Bjorn Helgaas, Nicholas Mazzuca and Toshi
Kani.
- Assorted power management updates
The "runtime idle" helper routine is changed to take the return
values of the callbacks executed by it into account and to call
rpm_suspend() if they return 0, which allows us to reduce the
overall code bloat a bit (by dropping some code that's not
necessary any more after that modification).
The runtime PM documentation is updated by Alan Stern (to reflect
the "runtime idle" behavior change).
New trace points for PM QoS are added by Sahara
(<keun-o.park@windriver.com>).
PM QoS documentation is updated by Lan Tianyu.
Code cleanups are made and minor issues are addressed by Bernie
Thompson, Bjorn Helgaas, Julius Werner, and Shuah Khan.
- devfreq updates
New driver for the Exynos5-bus device from Abhilash Kesavan.
Minor cleanups, fixes and MAINTAINERS update from MyungJoo Ham,
Abhilash Kesavan, Paul Bolle, Rajagopal Venkat, and Wei Yongjun.
- OMAP power management updates

A small but useful set of regmap updates this time around:
- An abstraction for bitfields within a register map contributed by
Srinivas Kandagatla, allowing drivers to cope more easily when
hardware designers randomly move things about (mainly when talking
to things like system controllers).
- Changes from Lars-Peter Clausen to allow the MMIO regmap to be used from
hard IRQ context.
- Small improvements to the cache infrastructure and performance,
including a default cache sync operation so now all regmaps can sync
easily.
There's also a pinctrl driver making use of the new bitfield API, merged
here for dependency reasons. There will be a simple add/add conflict
with the pinctrl tree as a result.

Pull regmap updates from Mark Brown:
"A small but useful set of regmap updates this time around:
- An abstraction for bitfields within a register map contributed by
Srinivas Kandagatla, allowing drivers to cope more easily when
hardware designers randomly move things about (mainly when talking
to things like system controllers).
- Changes from Lars-Peter Clausen to allow the MMIO regmap to be used
from hard IRQ context.
- Small improvements to the cache infrastructure and performance,
including a default cache sync operation so now all regmaps can
sync easily.
There's also a pinctrl driver making use of the new bitfield API,
merged here for dependency reasons. There will be a simple add/add
conflict with the pinctrl tree as a result."

Old gcc doesnt like the struct hack, and it is kind of ugly. So finish

The tracepoints were reworked to be more sensible, and fixed a null
pointer deref in one of the tracepoints.
Converted some of the pr_debug()s to tracepoints - this is partly a
performance optimization; it used to be that with DEBUG or
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG pr_debug() was an empty macro; but at some point it
was changed to an empty inline function.
Some of the pr_debug() statements had rather expensive function calls as
part of the arguments, so this code was getting run unnecessarily even
on non debug kernels - in some fast paths, too.

Each TRACE_EVENT() adds several helper functions. If two or more trace events
share the same structure and print format, they can also share most of these
helper functions and save a lot of space from duplicate code. This is why the
DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS() and DEFINE_EVENT() were created.
Some events require a trigger to be called at registering and unregistering of
the event and to do so they use TRACE_EVENT_FN().
If multiple events require a trigger, they currently have no choice but to use
TRACE_EVENT_FN() as there's no DEFINE_EVENT_FN() available. This unfortunately
causes a lot of wasted duplicate code created.
By adding a DEFINE_EVENT_FN(), these events can still use a
DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS() and then define their own triggers.

Rename ext4_da_writepages() to ext4_writepages() and use it for all
modes. We still need to iterate over all the pages in the case of
data=journalling, but in the case of nodelalloc/data=ordered (which is
what file systems mounted using ext3 backwards compatibility will use)
this will allow us to use a much more efficient I/O submission path.
Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
There are two issues with current writeback path in ext4. For one we
don't necessarily map complete pages when blocksize < pagesize and
thus needn't do any writeback in one iteration. We always map some
blocks though so we will eventually finish mapping the page. Just if
writeback races with other operations on the file, forward progress is
not really guaranteed. The second problem is that current code
structure makes it hard to associate all the bios to some range of
pages with one io_end structure so that unwritten extents can be
converted after all the bios are finished. This will be especially
difficult later when io_end will be associated with reserved
transaction handle.
We restructure the writeback path to a relatively simple loop which
first prepares extent of pages, then maps one or more extents so that
no page is partially mapped, and once page is fully mapped it is
submitted for IO. We keep all the mapping and IO submission
information in mpage_da_data structure to somewhat reduce stack usage.
Resulting code is somewhat shorter than the old one and hopefully also
easier to read.

Currently punch hole is disabled in file systems with bigalloc
feature enabled. However the recent changes in punch hole patch should
make it easier to support punching holes on bigalloc enabled file
systems.
This commit changes partial_cluster handling in ext4_remove_blocks(),
ext4_ext_rm_leaf() and ext4_ext_remove_space(). Currently
partial_cluster is unsigned long long type and it makes sure that we
will free the partial cluster if all extents has been released from that
cluster. However it has been specifically designed only for truncate.
With punch hole we can be freeing just some extents in the cluster
leaving the rest untouched. So we have to make sure that we will notice
cluster which still has some extents. To do this I've changed
partial_cluster to be signed long long type. The only scenario where
this could be a problem is when cluster_size == block size, however in
that case there would not be any partial clusters so we're safe. For
bigger clusters the signed type is enough. Now we use the negative value
in partial_cluster to mark such cluster used, hence we know that we must
not free it even if all other extents has been freed from such cluster.
This scenario can be described in simple diagram:
|FFF...FF..FF.UUU|
^----------^
punch hole
. - free space
| - cluster boundary
F - freed extent
U - used extent
Also update respective tracepoints to use signed long long type for
partial_cluster.

the general utility and motivation of full-dynticks runs wider than
that:
- HPC workloads get faster: CPUs running a single task should be able
to utilize a maximum amount of CPU power. A periodic timer tick at
HZ=1000 can cause a constant overhead of up to 1.0%. This feature
removes that overhead - and speeds up the system by 0.5%-1.0% on
typical distro configs even on modern systems.
- Real-time workload latency reduction: CPUs running critical tasks
should experience as little jitter as possible. The last remaining
source of kernel-related jitter was the periodic timer tick.
- A single task executing on a CPU is a pretty common situation,
especially with an increasing number of cores/CPUs, so this feature
helps desktop and mobile workloads as well.
The cost of the feature is mainly related to increased timer
reprogramming overhead when a CPU switches its tick period, and thus
slightly longer to-idle and from-idle latency.
Configuration-wise a third mode of operation is added to the existing
two NOHZ kconfig modes:
- CONFIG_HZ_PERIODIC: [formerly !CONFIG_NO_HZ], now explicitly named
as a config option. This is the traditional Linux periodic tick
design: there's a HZ tick going on all the time, regardless of
whether a CPU is idle or not.
- CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE: [formerly CONFIG_NO_HZ=y], this turns off the
periodic tick when a CPU enters idle mode.
- CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL: this new mode, in addition to turning off the
tick when a CPU is idle, also slows the tick down to 1 Hz (one
timer interrupt per second) when only a single task is running on a
CPU.
The .config behavior is compatible: existing !CONFIG_NO_HZ and
CONFIG_NO_HZ=y settings get translated to the new values, without the
user having to configure anything. CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL is turned off by
default.
This feature is based on a lot of infrastructure work that has been
steadily going upstream in the last 2-3 cycles: related RCU support
and non-periodic cputime support in particular is upstream already.
This tree adds the final pieces and activates the feature. The pull
request is marked RFC because:
- it's marked 64-bit only at the moment - the 32-bit support patch is
small but did not get ready in time.
- it has a number of fresh commits that came in after the merge
window. The overwhelming majority of commits are from before the
merge window, but still some aspects of the tree are fresh and so I
marked it RFC.
- it's a pretty wide-reaching feature with lots of effects - and
while the components have been in testing for some time, the full
combination is still not very widely used. That it's default-off
should reduce its regression abilities and obviously there are no
known regressions with CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL=y enabled either.
- the feature is not completely idempotent: there is no 100%
equivalent replacement for a periodic scheduler/timer tick. In
particular there's ongoing work to map out and reduce its effects
on scheduler load-balancing and statistics. This should not impact
correctness though, there are no known regressions related to this
feature at this point.
- it's a pretty ambitious feature that with time will likely be
enabled by most Linux distros, and we'd like you to make input on
its design/implementation, if you dislike some aspect we missed.
Without flaming us to crisp! :-)
Future plans:
- there's ongoing work to reduce 1Hz to 0Hz, to essentially shut off
the periodic tick altogether when there's a single busy task on a
CPU. We'd first like 1 Hz to be exposed more widely before we go
for the 0 Hz target though.
- once we reach 0 Hz we can remove the periodic tick assumption from
nr_running>=2 as well, by essentially interrupting busy tasks only
as frequently as the sched_latency constraints require us to do -
once every 4-40 msecs, depending on nr_running.
I am personally leaning towards biting the bullet and doing this in
v3.10, like the -rt tree this effort has been going on for too long -
but the final word is up to you as usual.

f7fec032aa ext4: track all extent status in extent status tree
The commit causes about 20% performance decrease in fio random write
test. Profiler shows that rb_next() uses a lot of CPU time. The call
stack is:
rb_next
ext4_es_find_delayed_extent
ext4_map_blocks
_ext4_get_block
ext4_get_block_write
__blockdev_direct_IO
ext4_direct_IO
generic_file_direct_write
__generic_file_aio_write
ext4_file_write
aio_rw_vect_retry
aio_run_iocb
do_io_submit
sys_io_submit
system_call_fastpath
io_submit
td_io_getevents
io_u_queued_complete
thread_main
main
__libc_start_main
The cause is that ext4_es_find_delayed_extent() doesn't have an
upper bound, it keeps searching until a delayed extent is found.
When there are a lots of non-delayed entries in the extent state
tree, ext4_es_find_delayed_extent() may uses a lot of CPU time.

This patch aims at tracing the eviction reload cycle of executable and

The typical usage is to spot a specific device and inode (for example
/lib/libc.so) to see the eviction cycles, and find out if frequently
used code is rather spread across many pages (bad) or coallesced (good).

Along with the usual minor fixes and clean ups there are a few major
changes with this pull request.
1) Multiple buffers for the ftrace facility
This feature has been requested by many people over the last few years.
I even heard that Google was about to implement it themselves. I finally
had time and cleaned up the code such that you can now create multiple
instances of the ftrace buffer and have different events go to different
buffers. This way, a low frequency event will not be lost in the noise
of a high frequency event.
Note, currently only events can go to different buffers, the tracers
(ie. function, function_graph and the latency tracers) still can only
be written to the main buffer.
2) The function tracer triggers have now been extended.
The function tracer had two triggers. One to enable tracing when a
function is hit, and one to disable tracing. Now you can record a
stack trace on a single (or many) function(s), take a snapshot of the
buffer (copy it to the snapshot buffer), and you can enable or disable
an event to be traced when a function is hit.
3) A perf clock has been added.
A "perf" clock can be chosen to be used when tracing. This will cause
ftrace to use the same clock as perf uses, and hopefully this will make
it easier to interleave the perf and ftrace data for analysis.

The smpboot threads rely on the park/unpark mechanism which binds per
cpu threads on a particular core. Though the functionality is racy:
CPU0 CPU1 CPU2
unpark(T) wake_up_process(T)
clear(SHOULD_PARK) T runs
leave parkme() due to !SHOULD_PARK
bind_to(CPU2) BUG_ON(wrong CPU)
We cannot let the tasks move themself to the target CPU as one of
those tasks is actually the migration thread itself, which requires
that it starts running on the target cpu right away.
The solution to this problem is to prevent wakeups in park mode which
are not from unpark(). That way we can guarantee that the association
of the task to the target cpu is working correctly.
Add a new task state (TASK_PARKED) which prevents other wakeups and
use this state explicitly for the unpark wakeup.
Peter noticed: Also, since the task state is visible to userspace and
all the parked tasks are still in the PID space, its a good hint in ps
and friends that these tasks aren't really there for the moment.
The migration thread has another related issue.
CPU0 CPU1
Bring up CPU2
create_thread(T)
park(T)
wait_for_completion()
parkme()
complete()
sched_set_stop_task()
schedule(TASK_PARKED)
The sched_set_stop_task() call is issued while the task is on the
runqueue of CPU1 and that confuses the hell out of the stop_task class
on that cpu. So we need the same synchronizaion before
sched_set_stop_task().

This is the pull request for the earlier patchset[1] with the same
name. It's only three patches (the first one was committed to
workqueue tree) but the merge strategy is a bit involved due to the
dependencies.
* Because the conversion needs features from wq/for-3.10,
block/for-3.10/core is based on rc3, and wq/for-3.10 has conflicts
with rc3, I pulled mainline (rc5) into wq/for-3.10 to prevent those
workqueue conflicts from flaring up in block tree.
* Resolving the issue that Jan and Dave raised about debugging
requires arch-wide changes. The patchset is being worked on[2] but
it'll have to go through -mm after these changes show up in -next,
and not included in this pull request.
The three commits are located in the following git branch.
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq.git writeback-workqueue
Pulling it into block/for-3.10/core produces a conflict in
drivers/md/raid5.c between the following two commits.
e3620a3ad5 ("MD RAID5: Avoid accessing gendisk or queue structs when not available")
2f6db2a707 ("raid5: use bio_reset()")
The conflict is trivial - one removes an "if ()" conditional while the
other removes "rbi->bi_next = NULL" right above it. We just need to
remove both. The merged branch is available at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq.git block-test-merge
so that you can use it for verification. The test merge commit has
proper merge description.
While these changes are a bit of pain to route, they make code simpler
and even have, while minute, measureable performance gain[3] even on a
workload which isn't particularly favorable to showing the benefits of
this conversion.

Writeback implements its own worker pool - each bdi can be associated
with a worker thread which is created and destroyed dynamically. The
worker thread for the default bdi is always present and serves as the
"forker" thread which forks off worker threads for other bdis.
there's no reason for writeback to implement its own worker pool when
using unbound workqueue instead is much simpler and more efficient.
This patch replaces custom worker pool implementation in writeback
with an unbound workqueue.
The conversion isn't too complicated but the followings are worth
mentioning.
* bdi_writeback->last_active, task and wakeup_timer are removed.
delayed_work ->dwork is added instead. Explicit timer handling is
no longer necessary. Everything works by either queueing / modding
/ flushing / canceling the delayed_work item.
* bdi_writeback_thread() becomes bdi_writeback_workfn() which runs off
bdi_writeback->dwork. On each execution, it processes
bdi->work_list and reschedules itself if there are more things to
do.
The function also handles low-mem condition, which used to be
handled by the forker thread. If the function is running off a
rescuer thread, it only writes out limited number of pages so that
the rescuer can serve other bdis too. This preserves the flusher
creation failure behavior of the forker thread.
* INIT_LIST_HEAD(&bdi->bdi_list) is used to tell
bdi_writeback_workfn() about on-going bdi unregistration so that it
always drains work_list even if it's running off the rescuer. Note
that the original code was broken in this regard. Under memory
pressure, a bdi could finish unregistration with non-empty
work_list.
* The default bdi is no longer special. It now is treated the same as
any other bdi and bdi_cap_flush_forker() is removed.
* BDI_pending is no longer used. Removed.
* Some tracepoints become non-applicable. The following TPs are
removed - writeback_nothread, writeback_wake_thread,
writeback_wake_forker_thread, writeback_thread_start,
writeback_thread_stop.
Everything, including devices coming and going away and rescuer
operation under simulated memory pressure, seems to work fine in my
test setup.

Dyntick-idle CPUs need to be able to pre-announce their need for grace

by no-CB CPUs to announce their need for grace periods. This commit

to suit the new future-grace-period needs.

In order to let triggers enable or disable events, we need a 'soft'
method for doing so. For example, if a function probe is added that
lets a user enable or disable events when a function is called, that
change must be done without taking locks or a mutex, and definitely
it can't sleep. But the full enabling of a tracepoint is expensive.
By adding a 'SOFT_DISABLE' flag, and converting the flags to be updated
without the protection of a mutex (using set/clear_bit()), this soft
disable flag can be used to allow critical sections to enable or disable
events from being traced (after the event has been placed into "SOFT_MODE").
Some caveats though: The comm recorder (to map pids with a comm) can not
be soft disabled (yet). If you disable an event with with a "soft"
disable and wait a while before reading the trace, the comm cache may be
replaced and you'll get a bunch of <...> for comms in the trace.
Reading the "enable" file for an event that is disabled will now give
you "0*" where the '*' denotes that the tracepoint is still active but
the event itself is "disabled".
