* [IA64] fix personality(PER_LINUX32) performance issueHuang, Xiaolan2008-05-151-0/+25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The patch aims to fix a performance issue for the syscall personality(PER_LINUX32). On IA-64 box, the syscall personality (PER_LINUX32) has poor performance because it failed to find the Linux/x86 execution domain. Then it tried to load the kernel module however it failed always and it used the default execution domain PER_LINUX instead. Requesting kernel modules is very expensive. It caused the performance issue. (see the function lookup_exec_domain in kernel/exec_domain.c). To resolve the issue, execution domain Linux/x86 is always registered in initialization time for IA-64 architecture.

* hotplug-memory: make online_page() commonJeremy Fitzhardinge2008-04-281-9/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | All architectures use an effectively identical definition of online_page(), so just make it common code. x86-64, ia64, powerpc and sh are actually identical; x86-32 is slightly different. x86-32's differences arise because it puts its hotplug pages in the highmem zone. We can handle this in the generic code by inspecting the page to see if its in highmem, and update the totalhigh_pages count appropriately. This leaves init_32.c:free_new_highpage with a single caller, so I folded it into add_one_highpage_init. I also removed an incorrect comment referring to the NUMA case; any NUMA details have already been dealt with by the time online_page() is called.

| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | According to SDM2.2, Itanium supports multiple outstanding ptc.g instructions. But current kernel function ia64_global_tlb_purge() uses a spinlock to serialize ptc.g instructions issued by multiple processors. This serialization might have scalability issue on a big SMP machine where many processors could purge TLB in parallel. The patch fixes this problem by issuing multiple ptc.g instructions in ia64_global_tlb_purge(). It also adds support for the "PALO" table to get a platform view of the max number of outstanding ptc.g instructions (which may be different from the processor view found from PAL_VM_SUMMARY). PALO specification can be found at: http://www.dig64.org/home/DIG64_PALO_R1_0.pdf spinaphore implementation by Matthew Wilcox.

* Introduce flags for reserve_bootmem()Bernhard Walle2008-02-072-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patchset adds a flags variable to reserve_bootmem() and uses the BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE flag in crashkernel reservation code to detect collisions between crashkernel area and already used memory. This patch: Change the reserve_bootmem() function to accept a new flag BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE. If that flag is set, the function returns with -EBUSY if the memory already has been reserved in the past. This is to avoid conflicts. Because that code runs before SMP initialisation, there's no race condition inside reserve_bootmem_core().

* [IA64] Avoid unnecessary TLB flushes when allocating memoryde Dinechin, Christophe (Integrity VM)2007-12-181-3/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Improve performance of memory allocations on ia64 by avoiding a global TLB purge to purge a single page from the file cache. This happens whenever we evict a page from the buffer cache to make room for some other allocation. Test case: Run 'find /usr -type f | xargs cat > /dev/null' in the background to fill the buffer cache, then run something that uses memory, e.g. 'gmake -j50 install'. Instrumentation showed that the number of global TLB purges went from a few millions down to about 170 over a 12 hours run of the above. The performance impact is particularly noticeable under virtualization, because a virtual TLB is generally both larger and slower to purge than a physical one.

The usage is actually safe because the __alloc_bootmem() is inside an "if (first_time)" test so that the call is only made while it is still legal to do so. But the warning is irritating.

* pid namespaces: define is_global_init() and is_container_init()Serge E. Hallyn2007-10-191-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | is_init() is an ambiguous name for the pid==1 check. Split it into is_global_init() and is_container_init(). A cgroup init has it's tsk->pid == 1. A global init also has it's tsk->pid == 1 and it's active pid namespace is the init_pid_ns. But rather than check the active pid namespace, compare the task structure with 'init_pid_ns.child_reaper', which is initialized during boot to the /sbin/init process and never changes. Changelog: 2.6.22-rc4-mm2-pidns1: - Use 'init_pid_ns.child_reaper' to determine if a given task is the global init (/sbin/init) process. This would improve performance and remove dependence on the task_pid(). 2.6.21-mm2-pidns2: - [Sukadev Bhattiprolu] Changed is_container_init() calls in {powerpc, ppc,avr32}/traps.c for the _exception() call to is_global_init(). This way, we kill only the cgroup if the cgroup's init has a bug rather than force a kernel panic.

* Add vmcoreinfoKen'ichi Ohmichi2007-10-171-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch set frees the restriction that makedumpfile users should install a vmlinux file (including the debugging information) into each system. makedumpfile command is the dump filtering feature for kdump. It creates a small dumpfile by filtering unnecessary pages for the analysis. To distinguish unnecessary pages, it needs a vmlinux file including the debugging information. These days, the debugging package becomes a huge file, and it is hard to install it into each system. To solve the problem, kdump developers discussed it at lkml and kexec-ml. As the result, we reached the conclusion that necessary information for dump filtering (called "vmcoreinfo") should be embedded into the first kernel file and it should be accessed through /proc/vmcore during the second kernel. (http://www.uwsg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0707.0/1806.html) Dan Aloni created the patch set for the above implementation.

* Do not depend on MAX_ORDER when grouping pages by mobilityMel Gorman2007-10-161-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently mobility grouping works at the MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES level. This makes sense for the majority of users where this is also the huge page size. However, on platforms like ia64 where the huge page size is runtime configurable it is desirable to group at a lower order. On x86_64 and occasionally on x86, the hugepage size may not always be MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES. This patch groups pages together based on the value of HUGETLB_PAGE_ORDER. It uses a compile-time constant if possible and a variable where the huge page size is runtime configurable. It is assumed that grouping should be done at the lowest sensible order and that the user would not want to override this. If this is not true, page_block order could be forced to a variable initialised via a boot-time kernel parameter. One potential issue with this patch is that IA64 now parses hugepagesz with early_param() instead of __setup(). __setup() is called after the memory allocator has been initialised and the pageblock bitmaps already setup. In tests on one IA64 there did not seem to be any problem with using early_param() and in fact may be more correct as it guarantees the parameter is handled before the parsing of hugepages=.

But since BenH's rework of the get_unmapped_area() paths leading up to commit 4b1d89290b62bb2db476c94c82cf7442aab440c8, prepare_hugepage_range() is only called for MAP_FIXED mappings, not for other mappings. This means we're no longer ever checking for an aligned offset - I've confirmed that mmap() will (apparently) succeed with a misaligned offset on both powerpc and i386 at least. This patch restores the check, removing it from prepare_hugepage_range() and putting it back into hugetlbfs_file_mmap(). I'm putting it there, rather than in the get_unmapped_area() path so it only needs to go in one place, than separately in the half-dozen or so arch-specific implementations of hugetlb_get_unmapped_area().

* [IA64] Failure to grow RBSAndrew Burgess2007-08-161-3/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is a bug in the ia64_do_page_fault code that can cause a failure to grow the register backing store, or any mapping that is marked as VM_GROWSUP if the mapping is the highest mapped area of memory. When the address accessed is below the first mapping the previous mapping is returned as NULL, and this case is handled. However, when the address accessed is above the highest mapping the vma returned is NULL, this case is not handled correctly, and it fails to spot that this access might require an existing mapping to grow upwards.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch completes Linus's wish that the fault return codes be made into bit flags, which I agree makes everything nicer. This requires requires all handle_mm_fault callers to be modified (possibly the modifications should go further and do things like fault accounting in handle_mm_fault -- however that would be for another patch).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch moves the die notifier handling to common code. Previous various architectures had exactly the same code for it. Note that the new code is compiled unconditionally, this should be understood as an appel to the other architecture maintainer to implement support for it aswell (aka sprinkling a notify_die or two in the proper place) arm had a notifiy_die that did something totally different, I renamed it to arm_notify_die as part of the patch and made it static to the file it's declared and used at. avr32 used to pass slightly less information through this interface and I brought it into line with the other architectures.

X uses reads the option ROM to initialize devices. A smaller test case is: # echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:aa:03.0/rom # cp /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:aa:03.0/rom x To avoid this, we can use the same ioremap_page_range() strategy that most architectures use for all ioremaps. These page table mappings come out of the vmalloc area. On ia64, these are in region 5 (0xA... addresses) and typically use 16KB or 64KB mappings instead of 16MB or 64MB mappings. The smaller mappings give more flexibility to use the correct attributes. Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@hp.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
