I have done some benchmarking on this, and it gains about 5-7% on a
microbenchmark with 4kb size copies and about a 1% gain with a more
realistic (but modified for smaller copies) hpcc benchmark. The
performance gain disappears into the noise by about 64kb sized copies.
No measurable overhead for larger copies. So I think its worth including

The basic idea behind cross memory attach is to allow MPI programs doing
intra-node communication to do a single copy of the message rather than a
double copy of the message via shared memory.
The following patch attempts to achieve this by allowing a destination
process, given an address and size from a source process, to copy memory
directly from the source process into its own address space via a system
call. There is also a symmetrical ability to copy from the current
process's address space into a destination process's address space.
- Use of /proc/pid/mem has been considered, but there are issues with
using it:
- Does not allow for specifying iovecs for both src and dest, assuming
preadv or pwritev was implemented either the area read from or
written to would need to be contiguous.
- Currently mem_read allows only processes who are currently
ptrace'ing the target and are still able to ptrace the target to read
from the target. This check could possibly be moved to the open call,
but its not clear exactly what race this restriction is stopping
(reason appears to have been lost)
- Having to send the fd of /proc/self/mem via SCM_RIGHTS on unix
domain socket is a bit ugly from a userspace point of view,
especially when you may have hundreds if not (eventually) thousands
of processes that all need to do this with each other
- Doesn't allow for some future use of the interface we would like to
consider adding in the future (see below)
- Interestingly reading from /proc/pid/mem currently actually
involves two copies! (But this could be fixed pretty easily)
As mentioned previously use of vmsplice instead was considered, but has
problems. Since you need the reader and writer working co-operatively if
the pipe is not drained then you block. Which requires some wrapping to
do non blocking on the send side or polling on the receive. In all to all
communication it requires ordering otherwise you can deadlock. And in the
example of many MPI tasks writing to one MPI task vmsplice serialises the
copying.
There are some cases of MPI collectives where even a single copy interface
does not get us the performance gain we could. For example in an
MPI_Reduce rather than copy the data from the source we would like to
instead use it directly in a mathops (say the reduce is doing a sum) as
this would save us doing a copy. We don't need to keep a copy of the data
from the source. I haven't implemented this, but I think this interface
could in the future do all this through the use of the flags - eg could
specify the math operation and type and the kernel rather than just
copying the data would apply the specified operation between the source
and destination and store it in the destination.
Although we don't have a "second user" of the interface (though I've had
some nibbles from people who may be interested in using it for intra
process messaging which is not MPI). This interface is something which
hardware vendors are already doing for their custom drivers to implement
fast local communication. And so in addition to this being useful for
OpenMPI it would mean the driver maintainers don't have to fix things up
when the mm changes.
There was some discussion about how much faster a true zero copy would
go. Here's a link back to the email with some testing I did on that:
There is a basic man page for the proposed interface here:
http://ozlabs.org/~cyeoh/cma/process_vm_readv.txt
This has been implemented for x86 and powerpc, other architecture should
mainly (I think) just need to add syscall numbers for the process_vm_readv
and process_vm_writev. There are 32 bit compatibility versions for
64-bit kernels.
For arch maintainers there are some simple tests to be able to quickly
verify that the syscalls are working correctly here:

show_stat handler of the /proc/stat file relies on kstat_cpu(cpu)

This patchset aims at addressing /proc/stat issue which has been
introduced with tickless kernel. In short, show_stat (proc handler)
relies on kstat_cpu(i).cpustat statistics which are updated periodically
so those numbers are more or less accurate.
This is, however, not true with tickless kernel for idle and iowait
counters because those are not updated while the cpu is in the tickless
state. As the time when CPU might be tickless is not bounded, we can see
really outdated values.
The biggest problem is that tools which read /proc/stat interpret
unchanged idle/iowait numbers as 0% idle/iowait which might confuse those
who rely on them.
The first patch in this series is just a minor clean-up.
The second one changes update_ts_time_stat semantic. The current
implementation updates idle counter regardless we are in iowait loop at
the moment. I see it as an optimization because cpufreq drivers, which
are only users of those counters, care about busy vs. non-busy states so
idle+iowait makes perfect sense. This, however, makes idle counter
useless for others.
I think that using get_cpu_idle_time_us + get_cpu_iowait_time_us should
have the same meaning (at least this is what we do for jiffies variants).
The third patch changes get_cpu_{idle,iowait}_time_us semantic. Both
functions call update_ts_time_stat so they update counters as a side
effect. This should be OK most of the time as governors (the only users)
are singletons. I can still see a potential problem because they might
race with IRQ:
Anyway, we shouldn't update those counters from other contexts so let's
make updating conditional based on the last_update_time parameter.
The final patch is the actual fix. It uses get_cpu_{idle,iowait}_time_us
to get precise counters. We still fall back to kstat_cpu if tickless
kernel is disabled.
The patchset is based on top of and gave it some testing (although I am
still not sure about the cpufreq part and possible side effects). My
testing was quite trivial (8 CPU machine):
mount -t cgroup -o cpuset none /mnt/cgroup
mkdir /mnt/cgroup/a
echo 0-5 > /mnt/cgroup/a/cpuset.cpus
echo 0 > /mnt/cgroup/a/cpuset.mems
for i in `cat /mnt/cgroup/tasks`; do echo $i > /mnt/cgroup/a/tasks; done
[only kernel threads will stay in the root cgroup]
mkdir /mnt/cgroup/b
echo 6,7 > /mnt/cgroup/a/cpuset.cpus
echo 0 > /mnt/cgroup/a/cpuset.mems
[no task in that group so CPU6,7 should be idle most of the time]
Without the last patch I can see unchanged values for CPU[67] taking up to
several seconds.

The current interrupt traces from irq_handler_entry and irq_handler_exit
provide when an interrupt is handled. They provide good data about when
the system has switched to kernel space and how it affects the currently

There are some IRQ vectors which trigger the system into kernel space,
which are not handled in generic IRQ handlers. Tracing such events gives
us the information about IRQ interaction with other system events.
The trace also tells where the system is spending its time. We want to
know which cores are handling interrupts and how they are affecting other
processes in the system. Also, the trace provides information about when
the cores are idle and which interrupts are changing that state.
The following patch adds the event definition and trace instrumentation

This new driver replaces the old PCEngines Alix 2/3 LED driver with a new
driver that controls the LEDs through the leds-gpio driver. The old
driver accessed GPIOs directly, which created a conflict and prevented
also loading the cs5535-gpio driver to read other GPIOs on the Alix board.
With this new driver, we hook into leds-gpio which in turn uses GPIO to
control the LEDs and therefore it's possible to control both the LEDs and
access onboard GPIOs
Driver is moved to platform/geode and any other geode initialisation
modules should move here also.
This driver is inspired by leds-net5501.c by Alessandro Zummo.
Ideally, leds-net5501.c should also be moved to platform/geode.
Additionally the driver relies on parts of the patch: 7f131cf3ed ("leds:
leds-alix2c - take port address from MSR) by Daniel Mack to perform
detection of the Alix board.

On x86_32 casting the unsigned int result of get_random_int() to long may
result in a negative value. On x86_32 the range of mmap_rnd() therefore
was -255 to 255. The 32bit mode on x86_64 used 0 to 255 as intended.

Since the commit below which added O_PATH support to the *at() calls, the
error return for readlink/readlinkat for the empty pathname has switched
from ENOENT to EINVAL:
readlinkat(), fchownat() and fstatat() with empty relative pathnames
This is both unexpected for userspace and makes readlink/readlinkat
inconsistant with all other interfaces; and inconsistant with our stated
return for these pathnames.
As the readlinkat call does not have a flags parameter we cannot use the
AT_EMPTY_PATH approach used in the other calls. Therefore expose whether
the original path is infact entry via a new user_path_at_empty() path
lookup function. Use this to determine whether to default to EINVAL or
ENOENT for failures.

Commit 79dfdac ("memcg: make oom_lock 0 and 1 based rather than counter")
tried to oom lock the hierarchy and roll back upon encountering an already
locked memcg.
The code is confused when it comes to detecting a locked memcg, though, so
it would fail and rollback after locking one memcg and encountering an
unlocked second one.
The result is that oom-locking hierarchies fails unconditionally and that
every oom killer invocation simply goes to sleep on the oom waitqueue
forever. The tasks practically hang forever without anyone intervening,
possibly holding locks that trip up unrelated tasks, too.

forward-compatible with newer versions of RapidIO specification.
RapidIO specification v. 1.3 removed Write Port CSR, Doorbell CSR,
Mailbox CSR and Mailbox and Doorbell bits of the PEF CAR.
Use of removed (since RIO v.1.3) register bits affects users of currently
available 1.3 and 2.x compliant devices who may use not so recent kernel
versions.
Removing checks for unsupported bits makes corresponding routines
compatible with all versions of RapidIO specification. Therefore,
backporting makes stable kernel versions compliant with RIO v.1.3 and
later as well.

ZONE_CONGESTED is only cleared in kswapd, but pages can be freed in any
task. It's possible ZONE_CONGESTED isn't cleared in some cases: 1. the
zone is already balanced just entering balance_pgdat() for order-0 because
concurrent tasks free memory. In this case, later check will skip the
zone as it's balanced so the flag isn't cleared. 2. high order balance
fallbacks to order-0. quote from Mel: At the end of balance_pgdat(),
kswapd uses the following logic;
If reclaiming at high order {
for each zone {
if all_unreclaimable
skip
if watermark is not met
order = 0
loop again
/* watermark is met */
clear congested
}
}
i.e. it clears ZONE_CONGESTED if it the zone is balanced. if not, it
restarts balancing at order-0. However, if the higher zones are balanced
for order-0, kswapd will miss clearing ZONE_CONGESTED as that only happens
after a zone is shrunk. This can mean that wait_iff_congested() stalls
unnecessarily. This patch makes kswapd clear ZONE_CONGESTED during its
initial highmem->dma scan for zones that are already balanced.

It seems that 7bf693951a8e ("console: allow to retain boot console via
boot option keep_bootcon") doesn't always achieve what it aims, as when
printk_late_init() runs it unconditionally turns off all boot consoles.
With this patch, I am able to see more messages on the boot console in KVM
guests than I can without, when keep_bootcon is specified.
I think it is appropriate for the relevant -stable trees. However, it's
more of an annoyance than a serious bug (ideally you don't need to keep
the boot console around as console handover should be working -- I was
encountering a situation where the console handover wasn't working and not
having the boot console available meant I couldn't see why).

added a drain_local_stock() call to a preemptible section.
The draining task looks up the cpu-local stock twice to set the
draining-flag, then to drain the stock and clear the flag again. If the
task is migrated to a different CPU in between, noone will clear the flag
on the first stock and it will be forever undrainable. Its charge can not
be recovered and the cgroup can not be deleted anymore.
Properly pin the task to the executing CPU while draining stocks.
