16 years ago[S390] Vertical cpu management.
Heiko Carstens [Thu, 17 Apr 2008 05:46:13 +0000 (07:46 +0200)]
[S390] Vertical cpu management.

If vertical cpu polarization is active then the hypervisor will
dispatch certain cpus for a longer time than other cpus for maximum
performance. For example if a guest would have three virtual cpus,
each of them with a share of 33 percent, then in case of vertical
cpu polarization all of the processing time would be combined to a
single cpu which would run all the time, while the other two cpus
would get nearly no cpu time.

There are three different types of vertical cpus: high, medium and
low. Low cpus hardly get any real cpu time, while high cpus get a
full real cpu. Medium cpus get something in between.

In order to switch between the two possible modes (default is
horizontal) a 0 for horizontal polarization or a 1 for vertical
polarization must be written to the dispatching sysfs attribute:

/sys/devices/system/cpu/dispatching

The polarization of each single cpu can be figured out by the
polarization sysfs attribute of each cpu:

/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/polarization

horizontal, vertical:high, vertical:medium, vertical:low or unknown.

When switching polarization the polarization attribute may contain
the value unknown until the configuration change is done and the
kernel has figured out the new polarization of each cpu.

Note that running a system with different types of vertical cpus may
result in significant performance regressions. If possible only one
type of vertical cpus should be used. All other cpus should be
offlined.

16 years agomm: sparsemem memory_present() fix
Ingo Molnar [Tue, 15 Apr 2008 23:40:00 +0000 (01:40 +0200)]
mm: sparsemem memory_present() fix

Fix memory corruption and crash on 32-bit x86 systems.

If a !PAE x86 kernel is booted on a 32-bit system with more than 4GB of
RAM, then we call memory_present() with a start/end that goes outside
the scope of MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS.

That causes this loop to happily walk over the limit of the sparse
memory section map:

    for (pfn = start; pfn < end; pfn += PAGES_PER_SECTION) {
                unsigned long section = pfn_to_section_nr(pfn);
                struct mem_section *ms;

                sparse_index_init(section, nid);
                set_section_nid(section, nid);

                ms = __nr_to_section(section);
                if (!ms->section_mem_map)
                        ms->section_mem_map = sparse_encode_early_nid(nid) |
                                SECTION_MARKED_PRESENT;

'ms' will be out of bounds and we'll corrupt a small amount of memory by
encoding the node ID and writing SECTION_MARKED_PRESENT (==0x1) over it.

The corruption might happen when encoding a non-zero node ID, or due to
the SECTION_MARKED_PRESENT which is 0x1:

mmzone.h:#define SECTION_MARKED_PRESENT (1UL<<0)

The fix is to sanity check anything the architecture passes to
sparsemem.

This bug seems to be rather old (as old as sparsemem support itself),
but the exact incarnation depended on random details like configs, which
made this bug more prominent in v2.6.25-to-be.

An additional enhancement might be to print a warning about ignored or
trimmed memory ranges.

However because netconsole has CON_PRINTBUFFER set, when it is

16 years agolocks: fix possible infinite loop in fcntl(F_SETLKW) over nfs
J. Bruce Fields [Mon, 14 Apr 2008 19:03:02 +0000 (15:03 -0400)]
locks: fix possible infinite loop in fcntl(F_SETLKW) over nfs

Miklos Szeredi found the bug:

"Basically what happens is that on the server nlm_fopen() calls
nfsd_open() which returns -EACCES, to which nlm_fopen() returns
NLM_LCK_DENIED.

"On the client this will turn into a -EAGAIN (nlm_stat_to_errno()),
which in will cause fcntl_setlk() to retry forever."

So, for example, opening a file on an nfs filesystem, changing
permissions to forbid further access, then trying to lock the file,
could result in an infinite loop.

And Trond Myklebust identified the culprit, from Marc Eshel and I:

7723ec9777d9832849b76475b1a21a2872a40d20 "locks: factor out
generic/filesystem switch from setlock code"

That commit claimed to just be reshuffling code, but actually introduced
a behavioral change by calling the lock method repeatedly as long as it
returned -EAGAIN.

We assumed this would be safe, since we assumed a lock of type SETLKW
would only return with either success or an error other than -EAGAIN.
However, nfs does can in fact return -EAGAIN in this situation, and
independently of whether that behavior is correct or not, we don't
actually need this change, and it seems far safer not to depend on such
assumptions about the filesystem's ->lock method.

Therefore, revert the problematic part of the original commit.  This
leaves vfs_lock_file() and its other callers unchanged, while returning
fcntl_setlk and fcntl_setlk64 to their former behavior.

16 years ago[BRIDGE]: Fix crash in __ip_route_output_key with bridge netfilter

[BRIDGE]: Fix crash in __ip_route_output_key with bridge netfilter

The bridge netfilter code attaches a fake dst_entry with a pointer to a
fake net_device structure to skbs it passes up to IPv4 netfilter. This
leads to crashes when the skb is passed to __ip_route_output_key when
dereferencing the namespace pointer.

Since bridging can currently only operate in the init_net namespace,
the easiest fix for now is to initialize the nd_net pointer of the
fake net_device struct to &init_net.

[NETFILTER]: ipt_CLUSTERIP: fix race between clusterip_config_find_get and _entry_put

Consider we are putting a clusterip_config entry with the "entries"
count == 1, and on the other CPU there's a clusterip_config_find_get
in progress:

CPU1: CPU2:
clusterip_config_entry_put: clusterip_config_find_get:
if (atomic_dec_and_test(&c->entries)) {
/* true */
read_lock_bh(&clusterip_lock);
c = __clusterip_config_find(clusterip);
/* found - it's still in list */
...
atomic_inc(&c->entries);
read_unlock_bh(&clusterip_lock);

write_lock_bh(&clusterip_lock);
list_del(&c->list);
write_unlock_bh(&clusterip_lock);
...
dev_put(c->dev);

Oops! We have an entry returned by the clusterip_config_find_get,
which is a) not in list b) has a stale dev pointer.

The problems will happen when the CPU2 will release the entry - it
will remove it from the list for the 2nd time, thus spoiling it, and
will put a stale dev pointer.

The fix is to make atomic_dec_and_test under the clusterip_lock.
