2007-05-08uml: an idle system should have zero load averageJeff Dike1-2/+2
The ever-vigilant users of linode.com noticed that an idle 2.6 UML has a persistent load average of ~.4. It turns out that because the UML timer handler processed softirqs before actually delivering the tick, the tick was counted in the context of the idle thread about half the time.

2007-05-08uml: make hostfs_setattr() support operations on unlinked open filesAlberto Bertogli3-44/+74
This patch allows hostfs_setattr() to work on unlinked open files by calling set_attr() (the userspace part) with the inode's fd. Without this, applications that depend on doing attribute changes to unlinked open files will fail. It works by using the fd versions instead of the path ones (for example fchmod() instead of chmod(), fchown() instead of chown()) when an fd is available.

2007-05-08Add white list into modpost.c for memory hotplug code and ia64's machvec sectionYasunori Goto3-2/+29
This patch is add white list into modpost.c for some functions and ia64's section to fix section mismatchs. sparse_index_alloc() and zone_wait_table_init() calls bootmem allocator at boot time, and kmalloc/vmalloc at hotplug time. If config memory hotplug is on, there are references of bootmem allocater(init text) from them (normal text). This is cause of section mismatch. Bootmem is called by many functions and it must be used only at boot time. I think __init of them should keep for section mismatch check. So, I would like to register sparse_index_alloc() and zone_wait_table_init() into white list. In addition, ia64's .machvec section is function table of some platform dependent code. It is mixture of .init.text and normal text. These reference of __init functions are valid too.

2007-05-08Increase slab redzone to 64bitsDavid Woodhouse2-21/+25
There are two problems with the existing redzone implementation. Firstly, it's causing misalignment of structures which contain a 64-bit integer, such as netfilter's 'struct ipt_entry' -- causing netfilter modules to fail to load because of the misalignment. (In particular, the first check in net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.c::check_entry_size_and_hooks()) On ppc32 and sparc32, amongst others, __alignof__(uint64_t) == 8. With slab debugging, we use 32-bit redzones. And allocated slab objects aren't sufficiently aligned to hold a structure containing a uint64_t. By _just_ setting ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN to __alignof__(u64) we'd disable redzone checks on those architectures. By using 64-bit redzones we avoid that loss of debugging, and also fix the other problem while we're at it. When investigating this, I noticed that on 64-bit platforms we're using a 32-bit value of RED_ACTIVE/RED_INACTIVE in the 64-bit memory location set aside for the redzone. Which means that the four bytes immediately before or after the allocated object at 0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00 for LE and BE machines, respectively. Which is probably not the most useful choice of poison value. One way to fix both of those at once is just to switch to 64-bit redzones in all cases.

2007-05-07uml: more page fault path trimmingJeff Dike12-378/+158
More trimming of the page fault path. Permissions are passed around in a single int rather than one bit per int. The permission values are copied from libc so that they can be passed to mmap and mprotect without any further conversion. The register sets used by do_syscall_stub and copy_context_skas0 are initialized once, at boot time, rather than once per call. wait_stub_done checks whether it is getting the signals it expects by comparing the wait status to a mask containing bits for the signals of interest rather than comparing individually to the signal numbers. It also has one check for a wait failure instead of two. The caller is expected to do the initial continue of the stub. This gets rid of an argument and some logic. The fname argument is gone, as that can be had from a stack trace. user_signal() is collapsed into userspace() as it is basically one or two lines of code afterwards. The physical memory remapping stuff is gone, as it is unused. flush_tlb_page is inlined.

Give the page fault code a specialized path. There is only one page to look at, so there's no point in going into the general page table walking code. There's only going to be one host operation, so there are no opportunities for merging. So, we go straight to the pte we want, figure out what needs doing, and do it. While I was in here, I fixed the wart where the address passed to unmap was a void *, but an unsigned long to map and protect. This gives me just under 10% on a kernel build.

2007-05-07uml: don't try to handle signals on initial process stackJeff Dike1-3/+11
Code running on the initial UML stack can't receive or process signals since current must be valid when IRQs are handled, and there is no current for this stack. So, instead of using UML_LONGJMP and UML_SETJMP, which are careful to save and restore signal state, and, as a side-effect, handle any deferred signals, start_idle_thread must use the bare equivalents, which don't do anything with signals.

2007-05-07uml: send pointers instead of structures to I/O threadJeff Dike1-15/+26
Instead of writing entire structures between UML and the I/O thread, we send pointers. This cuts down on the amount of data being copied and possibly allows more requests to be pending between the two. This requires that the requests be kmalloced and freed instead of living on the stack.

2007-05-07uml: batch I/O requestsJeff Dike1-77/+99
Send as many I/O requests to the I/O thread as possible, even though it will still only handle one at a time. This provides an opportunity to reduce latency by starting one request before the previous one has been finished in the driver. Request handling is somewhat modernized by requesting sg pieces of a request and handling them separately, finishing off the entire request after all the pieces are done. When a request queue stalls, normally because its pipe to the I/O thread is full, it is put on the restart list. This list is processed by starting up the queues on it whenever there is some indication that progress might be possible again. Currently, this happens in the driver interrupt routine. Some requests have been finished, so there is likely to be room in the pipe again. This almost doubles throughput when copying data between devices, but made no noticable difference on anything else I tried.

2007-05-07uml: convert libc layer to call read and writeJeff Dike9-57/+71
This patch converts calls in the os layer to os_{read,write}_file to calls directly to libc read() and write() where it is clear that the I/O buffer is in the kernel. We can do that here instead of calling os_{read,write}_file_k since we are in libc code and can call libc directly. With the change in the calls, error handling needs to be changed to refer to errno directly rather than the return value of the call. CATCH_EINTR wrappers were also added where needed.

2007-05-07uml: tidy libc codeJeff Dike7-46/+47
This patch lays some groundwork for the next one, which converts calls to os_{read,write}_file into {read,write}, by doing some tidying in the affected areas. do_not_aio gets restructured to make the final result a bit cleaner. There are also whitespace and other formatting fixes, fixes in error messages, and a typo fix.
