| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A bit too eager - we definitely need to clear the sg table initially, so that we don't accidentally have ->page & 0x01 true and think that is a chain pointer. This reverts commit f5c0dde4c66421a3a2d7d6fa604a712c9b0744e5.

| * | xfs: eagerly remove vmap mappings to avoid upsetting XenJeremy Fitzhardinge2007-10-161-0/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | XFS leaves stray mappings around when it vmaps memory to make it virtually contigious. This upsets Xen if one of those pages is being recycled into a pagetable, since it finds an extra writable mapping of the page. This patch solves the problem in a brute force way, by making XFS always eagerly unmap its mappings. David Chinner says this shouldn't have any performance impact on filesystems with default block sizes; it will only affect filesystems with large block sizes.

| * | xen: lock pte pages while pinning/unpinningJeremy Fitzhardinge2007-10-163-41/+103

This means that other CPUs may race with the pinning/unpinning process, and see a pte between when it gets marked RO and actually pinned, causing any pte updates to fail with write-protect faults. As a result, all pte pages must be properly locked, and only unlocked once the pinning/unpinning process has finished. In order to avoid taking spinlocks for the whole pagetable - which may overflow the PREEMPT_BITS portion of preempt counter - it locks and pins each pte page individually, and then finally pins the whole pagetable.

| * | xen: deal with stale cr3 values when unpinning pagetablesJeremy Fitzhardinge2007-10-163-20/+65
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a pagetable is no longer in use, it must be unpinned so that its pages can be freed. However, this is only possible if there are no stray uses of the pagetable. The code currently deals with all the usual cases, but there's a rare case where a vcpu is changing cr3, but is doing so lazily, and the change hasn't actually happened by the time the pagetable is unpinned, even though it appears to have been completed. This change adds a second per-cpu cr3 variable - xen_current_cr3 - which tracks the actual state of the vcpu cr3. It is only updated once the actual hypercall to set cr3 has been completed. Other processors wishing to unpin a pagetable can check other vcpu's xen_current_cr3 values to see if any cross-cpu IPIs are needed to clean things up.

| * | paravirt: clean up lazy mode handlingJeremy Fitzhardinge2007-10-168-98/+134

This patch removes the set_lazy_mode operation, and adds "enter" and "leave" lazy mode operations on mmu_ops and cpu_ops. All the logic associated with enter and leaving lazy states is now in common code (basically BUG_ONs to make sure that no mode is current when entering a lazy mode, and make sure that the mode is current when leaving). Also, flush is handled in a common way, by simply leaving and re-entering the lazy mode. The result is that the Xen, lguest and VMI lazy mode implementations are much simpler.

| * | paravirt: refactor struct paravirt_ops into smaller pv_*_opsJeremy Fitzhardinge2007-10-1612-462/+587

Some of these ops will be general to all x86, and some will be i386/x86-64 specific. This makes it easier to share common stuff while allowing separate implementations where needed. 2. At the moment we must export all of paravirt_ops, but modules only need selected parts of it. This allows us to export on a case by case basis (and also choose which export license we want to apply). 3. Functional groupings make things a bit more readable. Struct paravirt_ops is now only used as a template to generate patch-site identifiers, and to extract function pointers for inserting into jmp/calls when patching. It is only instantiated when needed.

Which makes it less than useful on MIPS I processors. This change adds the emulation, but as our do_ri() infrastructure was not really prepared to take yet another instruction, I have rewritten it and its callees slightly as follows. Now there is only a single place a possible signal is thrown from. The place is at the end of do_ri(). The instruction word is fetched in do_ri() and passed down to handlers. The handlers are called in sequence and return a result that lets the caller decide upon further processing. If the result is positive, then the handler has picked the instruction, but a signal should be thrown and the result is the signal number. If the result is zero, then the handler has successfully simulated the instruction. If the result is negative, then the handler did not handle the instruction; to make it more obvious the calls do not follow the usual 0/-Exxx result convention they now return -1 instead of -EFAULT. The calculation of the return EPC is now at the beginning. The reason is it is easier to handle it there as emulation callees may modify a register and an instruction may be located in delay slot of a branch whose result depends on the register. It has to be undone if a signal is to be raised, but it is not a problem as this is the slow-path case, and both actions are done in single places now rather than the former being scattered through emulation handlers. The part of do_cpu() being covered follows the changes to do_ri(). Signed-off-by: Maciej W. Rozycki <macro@linux-mips.org> Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org> ---

When tasks are assigned to a subset of CPUs that span across sched_domains (either ccNUMA node or the new multi-core domain) via cpu affinity, kernel fails to perform proper load balance at these domains, due to several logic in find_busiest_group() miss identified busiest sched group within a given domain. This leads to inadequate load balance and causes 50% performance hit. To give you a concrete example, on a dual-core, 2 socket numa system, there are 4 logical cpu, organized as: CPU0 attaching sched-domain: domain 0: span 0003 groups: 0001 0002 domain 1: span 000f groups: 0003 000c CPU1 attaching sched-domain: domain 0: span 0003 groups: 0002 0001 domain 1: span 000f groups: 0003 000c CPU2 attaching sched-domain: domain 0: span 000c groups: 0004 0008 domain 1: span 000f groups: 000c 0003 CPU3 attaching sched-domain: domain 0: span 000c groups: 0008 0004 domain 1: span 000f groups: 000c 0003 If I run 2 tasks with CPU affinity set to 0x5. There are situation where cpu0 has run queue length of 2, and cpu2 will be idle. The kernel load balancer is unable to balance out these two tasks over cpu0 and cpu2 due to at least three logics in find_busiest_group() that heavily bias load balance towards power saving mode. e.g. while determining "busiest" variable, kernel only set it when "sum_nr_running > group_capacity". This test is flawed that "sum_nr_running" is not necessary same as sum-tasks-allowed-to-run-within-the sched-group. The end result is that kernel "think" everything is balanced, but in reality we have an imbalance and thus causing one CPU to be over-subscribed and leaving other idle. There are two other logic in the same function will also causing similar effect. The nastiness of this bug is that kernel not be able to get unstuck in this unfortunate broken state. From what we've seen in our environment, kernel will stuck in imbalanced state for extended period of time and it is also very easy for the kernel to stuck into that state (it's pretty much 100% reproducible for us). So proposing the following fix: add addition logic in find_busiest_group to detect intrinsic imbalance within the busiest group. When such condition is detected, load balance goes into spread mode instead of default grouping mode. Signed-off-by: Ken Chen <kenchen@google.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

I started to put in break statements when allocation failed but it was approaching 50% error handling code. I came up with this alternative of looping while entry->mode is set and checking proc_handler instead of ->table. Alternatively, the string version of the domain name and cpu number could be stored the structs. I verified by compiling CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB and checking the allocation counts after taking a cpuset exclusive and back. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch disables DMA refetch in the PCI bridge. We have disabled DMA prefetch for quite some time. Testing with XEN revealed another ASIC bug. If dom0 resides on a P600 the board can can an MCA bi accessing invalid memory addresses. Apparently, we need to disable both prefetch and refetch. My understanding is a refetch operation should not occur but it is a valid thing to do if prefetched data is no longer available for whatever reason. Please consider this patch for inclusion.

The BestComm engine is a microcode-controlled / tasks-based DMA used by several of the onchip devices. Setting up the tasks / memory allocation and all common low level functions are handled by this patch. The specifics details of each tasks and their microcode are split-out in separate patches. This is not the official API, but a much cleaner one. (hopefully) Signed-off-by: Sylvain Munaut <tnt@246tNt.com> Signed-off-by: Grant Likely <grant.likely@secretlab.ca>

It's up to the driver to use the correct format depending on the chip it's running on. The 5200b also offers some more registers & status in AC97 mode. Again, if not running on a 5200b the driver should not use those. Signed-off-by: Sylvain Munaut <tnt@246tNt.com> Signed-off-by: Grant Likely <grant.likely@secretlab.ca>
