* | /proc/iomem: only expose physical resource addresses to privileged usersLinus Torvalds2016-04-141-2/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In commit c4004b02f8e5b ("x86: remove the kernel code/data/bss resources from /proc/iomem") I was hoping to remove the phyiscal kernel address data from /proc/iomem entirely, but that had to be reverted because some system programs actually use it. This limits all the detailed resource information to properly credentialed users instead. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

This promise never materialized. And unlikely will. Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are not. The first patch with most changes has been done with coccinelle. The second is manual fixups on top. The third patch removes macros definition" [ I was planning to apply this just before rc2, but then I spaced out, so here it is right _after_ rc2 instead. As Kirill suggested as a possibility, I could have decided to only merge the first two patches, and leave the old interfaces for compatibility, but I'd rather get it all done and any out-of-tree modules and patches can trivially do the converstion while still also working with older kernels, so there is little reason to try to maintain the redundant legacy model. - Linus ] * PAGE_CACHE_SIZE-removal: mm: drop PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} definition mm, fs: remove remaining PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} usage mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macros

This promise never materialized. And unlikely will. We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case, especially on the border between fs and mm. Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much breakage to be doable. Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are not. The changes are pretty straight-forward: - <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN}; - page_cache_get() -> get_page(); - page_cache_release() -> put_page(); This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files. I've called spatch for them manually. The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later. There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll fix them manually in a separate patch. Comments and documentation also will be addressed with the separate patch. virtual patch @@ expression E; @@ - E << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ expression E; @@ - E >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT + PAGE_SHIFT @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SIZE + PAGE_SIZE @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_MASK + PAGE_MASK @@ expression E; @@ - PAGE_CACHE_ALIGN(E) + PAGE_ALIGN(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_get(E) + get_page(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_release(E) + put_page(E) Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

" e23604edac2a Merge branch 'timers-nohz-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Now that we have introduced atomic_fetch_or(), fetch_or() is only used by the scheduler in order to deal with thread_info flags which type can vary across architectures. Lets confine fetch_or() back to the scheduler so that we encourage future users to use the more robust and well typed atomic_t version instead. While at it, fetch_or() gets robustified, pasting improvements from a previous patch by Ingo Molnar that avoids needless expression re-evaluations in the loop.

| * | | timers/nohz: Convert tick dependency mask to atomic_tFrederic Weisbecker2016-03-292-32/+31
| | |/ | |/| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The tick dependency mask was intially unsigned long because this is the type on which clear_bit() operates on and fetch_or() accepts it. But now that we have atomic_fetch_or(), we can instead use atomic_andnot() to clear the bit. This consolidates the type of our tick dependency mask, reduce its size on structures and benefit from possible architecture optimizations on atomic_t operations.

Move the definition of __irq_entry to <linux/interrupt.h> so that the users don't need to pull in <linux/ftrace.h>. Also introduce the __softirq_entry macro which is similar to __irq_entry, but puts the corresponding functions to the .softirqentry.text section.

The lack of TIF_MEMDIE also means that the victim cannot access memory reserves anymore but that shouldn't be a problem because it would get the access again if it needs to allocate and hits the OOM killer again due to the fatal_signal_pending resp. PF_EXITING check. We can safely hide the task from the OOM killer because it is clearly not a good candidate anymore as everyhing reclaimable has been torn down already. This patch will allow to cap the time an OOM victim can keep TIF_MEMDIE and thus hold off further global OOM killer actions granted the oom reaper is able to take mmap_sem for the associated mm struct. This is not guaranteed now but further steps should make sure that mmap_sem for write should be blocked killable which will help to reduce such a lock contention. This is not done by this patch. Note that exit_oom_victim might be called on a remote task from __oom_reap_task now so we have to check and clear the flag atomically otherwise we might race and underflow oom_victims or wake up waiters too early.

Included are fixups on top of the previous PM/ACPI pull request and other material that didn't make into it but still should go into 4.6. Among other things, there's a fix for an intel_pstate driver issue uncovered by recent cpufreq changes, a workaround for a boot hang on Skylake-H related to the handling of deep C-states by the platform and a PCI/ACPI fix for the handling of IO port resources on non-x86 architectures plus some new device IDs and similar. Specifics: - Fix for an intel_pstate driver issue related to the handling of MSR updates uncovered by the recent cpufreq rework (Rafael Wysocki). - cpufreq core cleanups related to starting governors and frequency synchronization during resume from system suspend and a locking fix for cpufreq_quick_get() (Rafael Wysocki, Richard Cochran). - acpi-cpufreq and powernv cpufreq driver updates (Jisheng Zhang, Michael Neuling, Richard Cochran, Shilpasri Bhat). - intel_idle driver update preventing some Skylake-H systems from hanging during initialization by disabling deep C-states mishandled by the platform in the problematic configurations (Len Brown). - Intel Xeon Phi Processor x200 support for intel_idle (Dasaratharaman Chandramouli). - cpuidle menu governor updates to make it always honor PM QoS latency constraints (and prevent C1 from being used as the fallback C-state on x86 when they are set below its exit latency) and to restore the previous behavior to fall back to C1 if the next timer event is set far enough in the future that was changed in 4.4 which led to an energy consumption regression (Rik van Riel, Rafael Wysocki). - New device ID for a future AMD UART controller in the ACPI driver for AMD SoCs (Wang Hongcheng). - Rockchip rk3399 support for the rockchip-io-domain adaptive voltage scaling (AVS) driver (David Wu). - ACPI PCI resources management fix for the handling of IO space resources on architectures where the IO space is memory mapped (IA64 and ARM64) broken by the introduction of common ACPI resources parsing for PCI host bridges in 4.4 (Lorenzo Pieralisi). - Fix for the ACPI backend of the generic device properties API to make it parse non-device (data node only) children of an ACPI device correctly (Irina Tirdea). - Fixes for the handling of global suspend flags (introduced in 4.4) during hibernation and resume from it (Lukas Wunner). - Support for obtaining configuration information from Device Trees in the PM clocks framework (Jon Hunter). - ACPI _DSM helper code and devfreq framework cleanups (Colin Ian King, Geert Uytterhoeven)" * tag 'pm+acpi-4.6-rc1-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm: (23 commits) PM / AVS: rockchip-io: add io selectors and supplies for rk3399 intel_idle: Support for Intel Xeon Phi Processor x200 Product Family intel_idle: prevent SKL-H boot failure when C8+C9+C10 enabled ACPI / PM: Runtime resume devices when waking from hibernate PM / sleep: Clear pm_suspend_global_flags upon hibernate cpufreq: governor: Always schedule work on the CPU running update cpufreq: Always update current frequency before startig governor cpufreq: Introduce cpufreq_update_current_freq() cpufreq: Introduce cpufreq_start_governor() cpufreq: powernv: Add sysfs attributes to show throttle stats cpufreq: acpi-cpufreq: make Intel/AMD MSR access, io port access static PCI: ACPI: IA64: fix IO port generic range check ACPI / util: cast data to u64 before shifting to fix sign extension cpufreq: powernv: Define per_cpu chip pointer to optimize hot-path cpuidle: menu: Fall back to polling if next timer event is near cpufreq: acpi-cpufreq: Clean up hot plug notifier callback intel_pstate: Do not call wrmsrl_on_cpu() with disabled interrupts cpufreq: Make cpufreq_quick_get() safe to call ACPI / property: fix data node parsing in acpi_get_next_subnode() ACPI / APD: Add device HID for future AMD UART controller ...

To do this, the format of the trace_printk() is saved to the __trace_printk_fmt section, and if that section is bigger than zero, the buffers are allocated (along with a message that this has happened). If trace_printk() uses a format that is not a constant, and thus something not guaranteed to be around when the print happens, the compiler optimizes the fmt out, as it is not used, and the __trace_printk_fmt section is not filled. This means the kernel will not allocate the special buffers needed for the trace_printk() and the trace_printk() will not write anything to the tracing buffer. Adding a "__used" to the variable in the __trace_printk_fmt section will keep it around, even though it is set to NULL. This will keep the string from being printed in the debugfs/tracing/printk_formats section as it is not needed.

This was due to the fact that the function tracer callback for those tracers checked if irqs were disabled before tracing. But this fails when we want to trace preempt off locations as well. Joel explained that he wanted to see funcitons where interrupts are enabled but preemption was disabled.

But I don't remember that race. For now, I added a check for preemption being enabled too to not record the function, as there would be no race if that was the case. I need to re-investigate this, as I'm now thinking that the tracing_cpu will always be correct. But no harm in keeping the check for now, except for the slight performance hit.

If we do this update only when it's needed, we save lot of time for perf system wide ftrace function sampling/counting. The reason is that for system wide sampling/counting, perf creates event for each cpu in the system. Each event then registers separate copy of ftrace_ops, which ends up in FTRACE_UPDATE_CALLS updates. On servers with many cpus that means serious stall (240 cpus server): Counting: # time ./perf stat -e ftrace:function -a sleep 1 Performance counter stats for 'system wide': 370,663 ftrace:function 1.401427505 seconds time elapsed real 3m51.743s user 0m0.023s sys 3m48.569s Sampling: # time ./perf record -e ftrace:function -a sleep 1 [ perf record: Woken up 0 times to write data ] Warning: Processed 141200 events and lost 5 chunks!

It's required that only first ftrace_ops registration does the FTRACE_UPDATE_CALLS update (also sometimes the second if the first one used the trampoline), but the rest can be only cheaply linked into the ftrace_ops list.

Normally a trigger requires access to the contents of a trace record only if it has a filter associated with it (since filters need the contents of a record in order to make a filtering decision). Some types of triggers, such as 'hist' triggers, require access to trace record contents independent of the presence of filters, so add a new flag for those triggers.

This patch adds a pointer to tracer_flags and make it point to the tracer it belongs to. When the option is setup, the set_flag of the right tracer will be used no matter what the the current_tracer is. And the old dummy_tracer_flags is used for all the tracers which doesn't have a tracer_flags, having issue to use it to save the pointer of a tracer. So remove it and use dynamic dummy tracer_flags for tracers needing a dummy tracer_flags, as a result, there are no tracers sharing tracer_flags, so remove the check code. And save the current tracer to trace_option_dentry seems not good as it may waste mem space when mount the debug/trace fs more than one time.

When you (or perf_fuzzer) write a huge value into /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate the computed perf_sample_allowed_ns becomes 0. This effectively disables the whole dynamic throttle. This is fixed by ensuring update_perf_cpu_limits() never sets the value to 0. However, we allow disabling of the dynamic throttle by writing 100 to /proc/sys/kernel/perf_cpu_time_max_percent. This will generate a warning in dmesg. The second problem is that by setting the max_sample_rate to a huge number, the adaptive process can take a few tries, since it halfs the limit each time. Change that to directly compute a new value based on the observed duration.

The problem is that enqueue_entity() places the task before it updates time, thereby it can place the task far in the past (remember that light tasks will shoot virtual time forward at a high speed, so in relation to the pre-existing light task, we can land far in the past). This is done because update_curr() needs the current task, and we might be placing the current task. The obvious solution is to differentiate between the current and any other task; placing the current before we update time, and placing any other task after, such that !curr tasks end up at the current moment in time, and not in the past.
