* PM: Allow drivers to allocate memory from .prepare() callbacks safelyRafael J. Wysocki2011-05-171-4/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If device drivers allocate substantial amounts of memory (above 1 MB) in their hibernate .freeze() callbacks (or in their legacy suspend callbcks during hibernation), the subsequent creation of hibernate image may fail due to the lack of memory. This is the case, because the drivers' .freeze() callbacks are executed after the hibernate memory preallocation has been carried out and the preallocated amount of memory may be too small to cover the new driver allocations. Unfortunately, the drivers' .prepare() callbacks also are executed after the hibernate memory preallocation has completed, so they are not suitable for allocating additional memory either. Thus the only way a driver can safely allocate memory during hibernation is to use a hibernate/suspend notifier. However, the notifiers are called before the freezing of user space and the drivers wanting to use them for allocating additional memory may not know how much memory needs to be allocated at that point. To let device drivers overcome this difficulty rework the hibernation sequence so that the memory preallocation is carried out after the drivers' .prepare() callbacks have been executed, so that the .prepare() callbacks can be used for allocating additional memory to be used by the drivers' .freeze() callbacks. Update documentation to match the new behavior of the code. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>
* PM: Remove CONFIG_PM_VERBOSERafael J. Wysocki2011-05-171-6/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | Now that we have CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG there is no need for yet another flag causing dev_dbg() and pr_debug() statements in the core PM code to produce output. Moreover, CONFIG_PM_VERBOSE causes so much output to be generated that it's not really useful and almost no one sets it.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Many different platforms and subsystems may want to disable device clocks during suspend and enable them during resume which is going to be done in a very similar way in all those cases. For this reason, provide generic routines for the manipulation of device clocks during suspend and resume. Convert the ARM shmobile platform to using the new routines. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since suspend, resume and shutdown operations in struct sysdev_class and struct sysdev_driver are not used any more, remove them. Also drop sysdev_suspend(), sysdev_resume() and sysdev_shutdown() used for executing those operations and modify all of their users accordingly. This reduces kernel code size quite a bit and reduces its complexity. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl> Acked-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

* | | PM / Hibernate: Add sysfs knob to control size of memory for driversRafael J. Wysocki2011-05-174-5/+48
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Martin reports that on his system hibernation occasionally fails due to the lack of memory, because the radeon driver apparently allocates too much of it during the device freeze stage. It turns out that the amount of memory allocated by radeon during hibernation (and presumably during system suspend too) depends on the utilization of the GPU (e.g. hibernating while there are two KDE 4 sessions with compositing enabled causes radeon to allocate more memory than for one KDE 4 session). In principle it should be possible to use image_size to make the memory preallocation mechanism free enough memory for the radeon driver, but in practice it is not easy to guess the right value because of the way the preallocation code uses image_size. For this reason, it seems reasonable to allow users to control the amount of memory reserved for driver allocations made after the hibernate preallocation, which currently is constant and amounts to 1 MB. Introduce a new sysfs file, /sys/power/reserved_size, whose value will be used as the amount of memory to reserve for the post-preallocation reservations made by device drivers, in bytes. For backwards compatibility, set its default (and initial) value to the currently used number (1 MB).

* | | PM: Print a warning if firmware is requested when tasks are frozenRafael J. Wysocki2011-05-171-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some drivers erroneously use request_firmware() from their ->resume() (or ->thaw(), or ->restore()) callbacks, which is not going to work unless the firmware has been built in. This causes system resume to stall until the firmware-loading timeout expires, which makes users think that the resume has failed and reboot their machines unnecessarily. For this reason, make _request_firmware() print a warning and return immediately with error code if it has been called when tasks are frozen and it's impossible to start any new usermode helpers.

Right after, the tracee can be killed and thus its breakpoints released. This can happen concurrently when the tracer is in the middle of reading or modifying these breakpoints, leading to dereferencing a freed pointer. Hence, to prepare the fix, create a generic breakpoint reference holding API. When a reference on the breakpoints of a task is held, the breakpoints won't be released until the last reference is dropped. After that, no more ptrace request on the task's breakpoints can be serviced for the tracer.

While not entirely correct this worked because hrtimer_init() only accessed statically initialized data (hrtimer_bases.clock_base[CLOCK_MONOTONIC]) Commit e06383db9 (hrtimers: extend hrtimer base code to handle more then 2 clockids) added an indirection to the hrtimer_bases.clock_base lookup to avoid gap handling in the hot path. The table which is used for the translataion from CLOCK_ID to HRTIMER_BASE index is initialized at runtime in hrtimers_init(). So the early call of the scheduler code translates CLOCK_MONOTONIC to HRTIMER_BASE_REALTIME. Thus the rt_bandwith timer ends up on CLOCK_REALTIME. If the timer is armed and the wall clock time is set (e.g. ntpdate in the early boot process - which also gives the problem deterministic behaviour i.e. magic recovery after N hours), then the timer ends up with an expiry time far into the future. That breaks the RT throttler mechanism as rt runtime is accumulated and never cleared, so the rt throttler detects a false cpu hog condition and blocks all RT tasks until the timer finally expires. That in turn stalls the RCU thread of TINYRCU which leads to an huge amount of RCU callbacks piling up. Make the translation table statically initialized, so we are back to the status of <= 2.6.39.

However, commit 40dc166cb5dddbd36aa4ad11c03915ea (PM / Core: Introduce struct syscore_ops for core subsystems PM) failed to add syscore_suspend() and syscore_resume() calls to that code, which generally leads to breakage when the features in question are used. To fix this problem, add the missing syscore_suspend() and syscore_resume() calls to arch/x86/kernel/apm_32.c, kernel/kexec.c and drivers/xen/manage.c. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

However, using a mutex has the unwanted effect that a long running clock operation in one process will unnecessarily block other processes. For example, one process might call read() to get an external time stamp coming in at one pulse per second. A second process calling clock_gettime would have to wait for almost a whole second. This patch fixes the issue by using a reader/writer semaphore instead of a mutex.

Admittedly the proc code should do some sanity checking on the range (and that will be the next commit), but that doesn't mean that the helper functions should just do that pidmap pointer arithmetic without checking the range of its arguments. So clamp 'last' to PID_MAX_LIMIT. The fact that we then do "last+1" doesn't really matter, the for-loop does check against the end of the pidmap array properly (it's only the actual pointer arithmetic overflow case we need to worry about, and going one bit beyond isn't going to overflow).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Linus correctly observes that the most important dispatch cases are now done from kblockd, this isn't ideal for latency reasons. The original reason for switching dispatches out-of-line was to avoid too deep a stack, so by _only_ letting the "accidental" flush directly in schedule() be guarded by offload to kblockd, we should be able to get the best of both worlds. So add a blk_schedule_flush_plug() that offloads to kblockd, and only use that from the schedule() path. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jaxboe@fusionio.com>

In those situation, it excludes the busiest CPU that has pinned tasks for load balance consideration such that it can perform second 2nd load balance pass on the rest of the system. This all works as designed if there is only one cgroup in the system. However, when we have multiple cgroups, this logic has false positives and triggers multiple load balance passes despite there are actually no pinned tasks at all. The reason it has false positives is that the all pinned logic is deep in the lowest function of can_migrate_task() and is too low level: load_balance_fair() iterates each task group and calls balance_tasks() to migrate target load. Along the way, balance_tasks() will also set a all_pinned variable. Given that task-groups are iterated, this all_pinned variable is essentially the status of last group in the scanning process. Task group can have number of reasons that no load being migrated, none due to cpu affinity. However, this status bit is being propagated back up to the higher level load_balance(), which incorrectly think that no tasks were moved. It kick off the all pinned logic and start multiple passes attempt to move load onto puller CPU. To fix this, move the all_pinned aggregation up at the iterator level. This ensures that the status is aggregated over all task-groups, not just last one in the list.

This will cause erroneous imbalance calculation. The reason is that calculate_imbalance() sees sds->avg_load = 0 and it will dump entire sds->max_load into imbalance variable, which is used later on to migrate entire load from busiest CPU to the puller CPU. This has two really bad effect: 1. stampede of task migration, and they won't be able to break out of the bad state because of positive feedback loop: large load delta -> heavier load migration -> larger imbalance and the cycle goes on. 2. severe imbalance in CPU queue depth. This causes really long scheduling latency blip which affects badly on application that has tight latency requirement. The fix is to have kernel calculate domain avg_load in both cases. This will ensure that imbalance calculation is always sensible and the target is usually half way between busiest and puller CPU.

The reason is that the function needs to first schedule out the cgroup events, just like for the per-thread events. The cgroup event are scheduled back in automatically from the perf_event_context_sched_in() function. The patch also adds a WARN_ON_ONCE() is perf_cgroup_switch() to catch any bogus state.

Moreover, it would be wasteful, as it would make the Xen kernels include a substantial amount of code that they would never use. To address this issue introduce new power management Kconfig option CONFIG_HIBERNATE_CALLBACKS, such that it will only select the code that is necessary for the hibernate device callbacks to work and make CONFIG_HIBERNATION select it. Then, Xen save/restore will be able to select CONFIG_HIBERNATE_CALLBACKS without dragging the entire hibernate code along with it. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
