* rcu: Stopgap fix for synchronize_rcu_expedited() for TREE_PREEMPT_RCUPaul E. McKenney2009-10-151-5/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For the short term, map synchronize_rcu_expedited() to synchronize_rcu() for TREE_PREEMPT_RCU and to synchronize_sched_expedited() for TREE_RCU. Longer term, there needs to be a real expedited grace period for TREE_PREEMPT_RCU, but candidate patches to date are considerably more complex and intrusive. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

The new home for this #include also allows __rcu_init_preempt() to move into rcutree_plugin.h. o Fix rcu_preempt_check_callbacks() to be static.

That means it is subject to the max_hw_sectors limitation of the HBA which is much lower than the size of a DISCARD request we can support. Add a separate max_discard_sectors tunable to limit the size for discard requests. We limit the max discard request size in bytes to 32bit as that is the limit for bio->bi_size. This could be much larger if we had a way to pass that information through the block layer. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

This makes it inappropriate for all but the most trivial translations of Linux's DISCARD operation to the block command set. Additionally adding a payload there makes the ownership of the bio backing unclear as it's now allocated by the device driver and not the submitter as usual. It is replaced with QUEUE_FLAG_DISCARD which is used to indicate whether the queue supports discard operations or not. blkdev_issue_discard now allocates a one-page, sector-length payload which is the right thing for the common ATA and SCSI implementations. The mtd implementation of prepare_discard_fn() is replaced with simply checking for the request being a discard. Largely based on a previous patch from Matthew Wilcox <matthew@wil.cx> which did the prepare_discard_fn but not the different payload allocation yet.

Problems: Now, res_counter_charge()/uncharge() handles softlimit information at charge/uncharge and softlimit-check is done when event counter per memcg goes over limit. Now, event counter per memcg is updated only when memory usage is over soft limit. Here, considering hierarchical memcg management, ancesotors should be taken care of. Now, ancerstors(hierarchy) are handled in charge() but not in uncharge(). This is not good. Prolems: 1. memcg's event counter incremented only when softlimit hits. That's bad. It makes event counter hard to be reused for other purpose. 2. At uncharge, only the lowest level rescounter is handled. This is bug. Because ancesotor's event counter is not incremented, children should take care of them. 3. res_counter_uncharge()'s 3rd argument is NULL in most case. ops under res_counter->lock should be small. No "if" sentense is better. Fixes: * Removed soft_limit_xx poitner and checks in charge and uncharge. Do-check-only-when-necessary scheme works enough well without them. * make event-counter of memcg incremented at every charge/uncharge. (per-cpu area will be accessed soon anyway) * All ancestors are checked at soft-limit-check. This is necessary because ancesotor's event counter may never be modified. Then, they should be checked at the same time.

| * | | | | ext4: Add a stub for mpage_da_data in the trace headerJosh Stone2009-09-301-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The tracepoint ext4_da_write_pages has a struct mpage_da_data* parameter, but that struct is only defined in fs/ext4/ext4.h. This patch adds a forward declaration for that struct, so this tracepoint header can still be used by tools like SystemTap. This is a continuation of the fix in commit 3661d286. http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10703 Signed-off-by: Josh Stone <jistone@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The /proc/fs/jbd2/<dev>/history was maintained manually; by using tracepoints, we can get all of the existing functionality of the /proc file plus extra capabilities thanks to the ftrace infrastructure. We save memory as a bonus. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

By ripping out the mb_history code and replacing it with ftrace tracepoints, and we get more functionality: timestamps, event filtering, the ability to correlate mballoc history with other ext4 tracepoints, etc. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
