* uprobes: Introduce find_active_uprobe() helperOleg Nesterov2012-06-061-19/+28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | No functional changes. Move the "find uprobe" code from handle_swbp() to the new helper, find_active_uprobe(). Note: with or without this change, the find-active-uprobe logic is not exactly right. We can race with another thread which unmaps the memory with the valid uprobe before we take mm->mmap_sem. We can't find this uprobe simply because find_vma() fails. In this case we wrongly assume that this trap was not caused by uprobe and send the erroneous SIGTRAP. See the next changes.

* uprobes: Change read_opcode() to use FOLL_FORCEOleg Nesterov2012-06-061-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | set_orig_insn()->read_opcode() should not fail if the probed task did mprotect() after uprobe_register(), change it to use FOLL_FORCE. Without FOLL_WRITE this doesn't have any "side" effect but allows to read the !VM_READ memory. There is another reason for this change, we are going to use is_swbp_at_addr() from handle_swbp() which can race with another thread doing mprotect().

* uprobes: Optimize is_swbp_at_addr() for current->mmOleg Nesterov2012-06-061-1/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Change is_swbp_at_addr() to try to avoid the costly read_opcode() if mm == current->mm, __copy_from_user_inatomic() should succeed in the likely case. Currently this optimization is not important, but we are going to add more is_swbp_at_addr(current->mm) callers.

* x86/decoder: Fix bsr/bsf/jmpe decoding with operand-size prefixMasami Hiramatsu2012-06-062-9/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix the x86 instruction decoder to decode bsr/bsf/jmpe with operand-size prefix (66h). This fixes the test case failure reported by Linus, attached below. bsf/bsr/jmpe have a special encoding. Opcode map in Intel Software Developers Manual vol2 says they have TZCNT/LZCNT variants if it has F3h prefix. However, there is no information if it has other 66h or F2h prefixes. Current instruction decoder supposes that those are bad instructions, but it actually accepts at least operand-size prefixes. H. Peter Anvin further explains: " TZCNT/LZCNT are F3 + BSF/BSR exactly because the F2 and F3 prefixes have historically been no-ops with most instructions. This allows software to unconditionally use the prefixed versions and get TZCNT/LZCNT on the processors that have them if they don't care about the difference. " This fixes errors reported by test_get_len: Warning: arch/x86/tools/test_get_len found difference at <em_bsf>:ffffffff81036d87 Warning: ffffffff81036de5: 66 0f bc c2 bsf %dx,%ax Warning: objdump says 4 bytes, but insn_get_length() says 3 Warning: arch/x86/tools/test_get_len found difference at <em_bsr>:ffffffff81036ea6 Warning: ffffffff81036f04: 66 0f bd c2 bsr %dx,%ax Warning: objdump says 4 bytes, but insn_get_length() says 3 Warning: decoded and checked 13298882 instructions with 2 warnings Reported-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Reported-by: Pekka Enberg <penberg@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com> Cc: "H.

| * perf stat: Initialize default events wrt exclude_{guest,host}Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo2012-05-303-4/+19

When the change was made to the tools so that by default guest samples would be excluded, the changes were made just to the parsing routines and to perf_evlist__add_default(), not to perf_evlist__add_attrs, that is used so far just by perf stat to add multiple events, according to the level of detail specified. Recently the tools were changed to reconstruct the event name from all the details in perf_event_attr, not just from .type and .config, but taking into account all the feature bits (.exclude_{guest,host,user,kernel,etc}, .precise_ip, etc). That is when we noticed that the default for perf stat wasn't the one for the rest of the tools, i.e. the .exclude_guest bit wasn't being set. I.e. the default, that doesn't call event_attr_init was showing the :HG modifier: $ perf stat usleep 1 Performance counter stats for 'usleep 1': 0.942119 task-clock # 0.454 CPUs utilized 1 context-switches # 0.001 M/sec 0 CPU-migrations # 0.000 K/sec 126 page-faults # 0.134 M/sec 693,193 cycles:HG # 0.736 GHz [40.11%] 407,461 stalled-cycles-frontend:HG # 58.78% frontend cycles idle [72.29%] 365,403 stalled-cycles-backend:HG # 52.71% backend cycles idle 465,982 instructions:HG # 0.67 insns per cycle # 0.87 stalled cycles per insn 89,760 branches:HG # 95.275 M/sec 6,178 branch-misses:HG # 6.88% of all branches 0.002077228 seconds time elapsed While if one explicitely specifies the same events, which will make the parsing code to be called and thus event_attr_init is called: $ perf stat -e task-clock,context-switches,migrations,page-faults,cycles,stalled-cycles-frontend,stalled-cycles-backend,instructions,branches,branch-misses usleep 1 Performance counter stats for 'usleep 1': 1.040349 task-clock # 0.500 CPUs utilized 2 context-switches # 0.002 M/sec 0 CPU-migrations # 0.000 K/sec 127 page-faults # 0.122 M/sec 587,966 cycles # 0.565 GHz [13.18%] 459,167 stalled-cycles-frontend # 78.09% frontend cycles idle 390,249 stalled-cycles-backend # 66.37% backend cycles idle 504,006 instructions # 0.86 insns per cycle # 0.91 stalled cycles per insn 96,455 branches # 92.714 M/sec 6,522 branch-misses # 6.76% of all branches [96.12%] 0.002078681 seconds time elapsed Fix it by introducing a perf_evlist__add_default_attrs method that will call evlist_attr_init in all the perf_event_attr entries before adding the events.

However, with cgroups a SCHED_RR task could be the only element on its per-cgroup rq but still be competing with other SCHED_RR tasks in its parent's cgroup. In this case, the SCHED_RR task in the child cgroup would never yield at the end of its timeslice. If the child cgroup rt_runtime_us was the same as the parent cgroup rt_runtime_us, the task in the parent cgroup would starve completely. Modify task_tick_rt() to check that the task is the only task on its rq, and that the each of the scheduling entities of its ancestors is also the only entity on its rq.

The typical result of not fully connected NUMA is that each cpu (or rather node) will have different spans for a particular distance. However due to how sched domains are traversed -- only the first cpu in the mask goes one level up -- the next level only cares about the spans of the cpus that went up. Due to this two things were observed to be broken: - build_overlap_sched_groups() -- since its possible the cpu we're building the groups for exists in multiple (or all) groups, the selection criteria of the first group didn't ensure there was a cpu for which is was true that cpumask_first(span) == cpu. Thus load- balancing would terminate. - update_group_power() -- assumed that the cpu span of the first group of the domain was covered by all groups of the child domain. The above explains why this isn't true, so deal with it.

Add a callback from the nohz exit to also age the rq->cpu_load[] array. This closes the hole where either there was no nohz load balance pass during the nohz, or there was a 'significant' amount of idle time between the last nohz balance and the nohz exit. So we'll update unconditionally from the tick to not insert any accidental 0 load periods while busy, and we try and catch up from nohz idle balance and nohz exit. Both these are still prone to missing a jiffy, but that has always been the case.

In some environments, dramatic performance savings may be obtained because swapped pages are saved in RAM (or a RAM-like device) instead of a swap disk. This tag provides the basic infrastructure along with some changes to the existing backends." Fix up trivial conflict in mm/Makefile due to removal of swap token code changing a line next to the new frontswap entry. This pull request came in before the merge window even opened, it got delayed to after the merge window by me just wanting to make sure it had actual users. Apparently IBM is using this on their embedded side, and Jan Beulich says that it's already made available for SLES and OpenSUSE users. Also acked by Rik van Riel, and Konrad points to other people liking it too. So in it goes.
