This patch set is for adding support for LZ4-compressed Kernel.  LZ4 is a
very fast lossless compression algorithm and it also features an extremely
fast decoder [1].

But we have five of decompressors already and one question which does
arise, however, is that of where do we stop adding new ones?  This issue
had been discussed and came to the conclusion [2].

Russell King said that we should have:

- one decompressor which is the fastest
- one decompressor for the highest compression ratio
- one popular decompressor (eg conventional gzip)

If we have a replacement one for one of these, then it should do exactly
that: replace it.

The benchmark shows that an 8% increase in image size vs a 66% increase in
decompression speed compared to LZO(which has been known as the fastest
decompressor in the Kernel).  Therefore the "fast but may not be small"
compression title has clearly been taken by LZ4 [3].

kernel/sys.c: make prctl(PR_SET_MM) generally available

The purpose of this patch is to allow privileged processes to set
their own per-memory memory-region fields:

      start_code, end_code, start_data, end_data, start_brk, brk,
      start_stack, arg_start, arg_end, env_start, env_end.

This functionality is needed by any application or package that needs to
reconstruct Linux processes, that is, to start them in any way other than
by means of an "execve()" from an executable file.  This includes:

1. Restoring processes from a checkpoint-file (by all potential
   user-level checkpointing packages, not only CRIU's).
2. Restarting processes on another node after process migration.
3. Starting duplicated copies of a running process (for reliability
   and high-availablity).
4. Starting a process from an executable format that is not supported
   by Linux, thus requiring a "manual execve" by a user-level utility.
5. Similarly, starting a process from a networked and/or crypted
   executable that, for confidentiality, licensing or other reasons,
   may not be written to the local file-systems.

The code that does that was already included in the Linux kernel by the
CRIU group, in the form of "prctl(PR_SET_MM)", but prior to this was
enclosed within their private "#ifdef CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE", which is
normally disabled.  The patch removes those ifdefs.

kioctx not being freed when outstanding kiocbs are cancelled at exit_aio()
time.  Specifically, a kiocb that is cancelled has its completion events

appropriately.

block, aio: batch completion for bios/kiocbs

When completing a kiocb, there's some fixed overhead from touching the
kioctx's ring buffer the kiocb belongs to.  Some newer high end block
devices can complete multiple IOs per interrupt, much like many network
interfaces have been for some time.

This plumbs through infrastructure so we can take advantage of multiple
completions at the interrupt level, and complete multiple kiocbs at the
same time.

Drivers have to be converted to take advantage of this, but it's a simple
change and the next patches will convert a few drivers.

To use it, an interrupt handler (or any code that completes bios or
requests) declares and initializes a struct batch_complete:

struct batch_complete batch;
batch_complete_init(&batch);

Then, instead of calling bio_endio(), it calls
bio_endio_batch(bio, err, &batch). This just adds the bio to a list in
the batch_complete.

At the end, it calls

batch_complete(&batch);

This completes all the bios all at once, building up a list of kiocbs;
then the list of kiocbs are completed all at once.

aio: use xchg() instead of completion_lock

So, for sticking kiocb completions on the kioctx ringbuffer, we need a
lock - it unfortunately can't be lockless.

When the kioctx is shared between threads on different cpus and the rate
of completions is high, this lock sees quite a bit of contention - in
terms of cacheline contention it's the hottest thing in the aio subsystem.

That means, with a regular spinlock, we're going to take a cache miss to
grab the lock, then another cache miss when we touch the data the lock
protects - if it's on the same cacheline as the lock, other cpus spinning
on the lock are going to be pulling it out from under us as we're using
it.

So, we use an old trick to get rid of this second forced cache miss - make
the data the lock protects be the lock itself, so we grab them both at
once.

generic dynamic per cpu refcounting

This implements a refcount with similar semantics to
atomic_get()/atomic_dec_and_test(), that starts out as just an atomic_t
but dynamically switches to per cpu refcounting when the rate of gets/puts
becomes too high.

It also implements two stage shutdown, as we need it to tear down the
percpu counts.  Before dropping the initial refcount, you must call
percpu_ref_kill(); this puts the refcount in "shutting down mode" and
switches back to a single atomic refcount with the appropriate barriers
(synchronize_rcu()).

It's also legal to call percpu_ref_kill() multiple times - it only returns
true once, so callers don't have to reimplement shutdown synchronization.

For the sake of simplicity/efficiency, the heuristic is pretty simple - it
just switches to percpu refcounting if there are more than x gets in one
second (completely arbitrarily, 4096).

It'd be more correct to count the number of cache misses or something else
more profile driven, but doing so would require accessing the shared ref
twice per get - by just counting the number of gets(), we can stick that
counter in the high bits of the refcount and increment both with a single
atomic64_add().  But I expect this'll be good enough in practice.

See the previous patch ("aio: reqs_active -> reqs_available") for why we
want to do this - this basically implements a per cpu allocator for
reqs_available that doesn't actually allocate anything.

Note that we need to increase the size of the ringbuffer we allocate,
since a single thread won't necessarily be able to use all the
reqs_available slots - some (up to about half) might be on other per cpu
lists, unavailable for the current thread.

We size the ringbuffer based on the nr_events userspace passed to
io_setup(), so this is a slight behaviour change - but nr_events wasn't
being used as a hard limit before, it was being rounded up to the next
page before so this doesn't change the actual semantics.

aio: kill struct aio_ring_info

struct aio_ring_info was kind of odd, the only place it's used is where
it's embedded in struct kioctx - there's no real need for it.

The next patch rearranges struct kioctx and puts various things on their
own cachelines - getting rid of struct aio_ring_info now makes that
reordering a bit clearer.

worthwhile.  But we've gotten rid of some of those, and in another couple

ringbuffer overflowing.  To do that, it has to keep track of the number of
outstanding kiocbs, and the number of completions currently in the
ringbuffer - and it's got to check that every time we allocate a kiocb.
Ouch.

But - we can improve this quite a bit if we just change reqs_active to
mean "number of outstanding requests and unreaped completions" - that
means kiocb allocation doesn't have to look at the ringbuffer, which is a
fairly significant win.

wait: add wait_event_hrtimeout()

Analagous to wait_event_timeout() and friends, this adds
wait_event_hrtimeout() and wait_event_interruptible_hrtimeout().

Note that unlike the versions that use regular timers, these don't return
the amount of time remaining when they return - instead, they return 0 or
-ETIME if they timed out.  because I was uncomfortable with the semantics
of doing it the other way (that I could get it right, anyways).

If the timer expires, there's no real guarantee that expire_time -
current_time would be <= 0 - due to timer slack certainly, and I'm not
sure I want to know the implications of the different clock bases in
hrtimers.

If the timer does expire and the code calculates that the time remaining
is nonnegative, that could be even worse if the calling code then reuses
that timeout.  Probably safer to just return 0 then, but I could imagine
weird bugs or at least unintended behaviour arising from that too.

I came to the conclusion that if other users end up actually needing the
amount of time remaining, the sanest thing to do would be to create a
version that uses absolute timeouts instead of relative.

The usage of ctx->dead was fubar - it makes no sense to explicitly check
it all over the place, especially when we're already using RCU.

Now, ctx->dead only indicates whether we've dropped the initial
refcount. The new teardown sequence is:
set ctx->dead
hlist_del_rcu();
synchronize_rcu();

Now we know no system calls can take a new ref, and it's safe to drop
the initial ref:
put_ioctx();

We also need to ensure there are no more outstanding kiocbs.  This was
done incorrectly - it was being done in kill_ctx(), and before dropping
the initial refcount.  At this point, other syscalls may still be
submitting kiocbs!

Now, we cancel and wait for outstanding kiocbs in free_ioctx(), after
kioctx->users has dropped to 0 and we know no more iocbs could be
submitted.

aio: make aio_put_req() lockless

Freeing a kiocb needed to touch the kioctx for three things:

 * Pull it off the reqs_active list
 * Decrementing reqs_active
 * Issuing a wakeup, if the kioctx was in the process of being freed.

This patch moves these to aio_complete(), for a couple reasons:

 * aio_complete() already has to issue the wakeup, so if we drop the
   kioctx refcount before aio_complete does its wakeup we don't have to
   do it twice.
 * aio_complete currently has to take the kioctx lock, so it makes sense
   for it to pull the kiocb off the reqs_active list too.
 * A later patch is going to change reqs_active to include unreaped
   completions - this will mean allocating a kiocb doesn't have to look
   at the ringbuffer. So taking the decrement of reqs_active out of
   kiocb_free() is useful prep work for that patch.

This doesn't really affect cancellation, since existing (usb) code that
implements a cancel function still calls aio_complete() - we just have
to make sure that aio_complete does the necessary teardown for cancelled
kiocbs.

It does affect code paths where we free kiocbs that were never
submitted; they need to decrement reqs_active and pull the kiocb off the
reqs_active list. This occurs in two places: kiocb_batch_free(), which
is going away in a later patch, and the error path in io_submit_one.

Nothing used the return value, and it probably wasn't possible to use it
safely for the locked versions (aio_complete(), aio_put_req()).  Just kill

aio: remove retry-based AIO

This removes the retry-based AIO infrastructure now that nothing in tree
is using it.

We want to remove retry-based AIO because it is fundemantally unsafe.  It
retries IO submission from a kernel thread that has only assumed the mm of
the submitting task.  All other task_struct references in the IO
submission path will see the kernel thread, not the submitting task.  This
design flaw means that nothing of any meaningful complexity can use
retry-based AIO.

This removes all the code and data associated with the retry machinery.
The most significant benefit of this is the removal of the locking around
the unused run list in the submission path.

This has only been compiled.

gadget: remove only user of aio retry

This removes the only in-tree user of aio retry.  This will let us remove
the retry code from the aio core.

Removing retry is relatively easy as the USB gadget wasn't using it to
retry IOs at all.  It always fully submitted the IO in the context of the
initial io_submit() call.  It only used the AIO retry facility to get the
submitter's mm context for copying the result of a read back to user
space.  This is easy to implement with use_mm() and a work struct, much
like kvm does with async_pf_execute() for get_user_pages().

11 years agox86: pageattr-test: remove srandom32 call
Akinobu Mita [Tue, 26 Mar 2013 23:26:06 +0000 (10:26 +1100)]
x86: pageattr-test: remove srandom32 call

pageattr-test calls srandom32() once every test iteration.  But calling
srandom32() after late_initcalls is not meaningfull.  Because the random
states for random32() is mixed by good random numbers in late_initcall
prandom_reseed().

So this removes the call to srandom32().
