semaphore: fix

| Generic semaphore implementation
|
| After I manually reverted the patch against 2.6.26-rc1 while fixing
| lots of conflicts/errors, aim7 regression became less than 2%.
i reproduced the AIM7 workload and can confirm Yanmin's findings that
-.26-rc1 regresses over .25 - by over 67% here.
Looking at the workload i found and fixed what i believe to be the real
bug causing the AIM7 regression: it was inefficient wakeup / scheduling
/ locking behavior of the new generic semaphore code, causing suboptimal
performance.
The problem comes from the following code. The new semaphore code does
this on down():
the fastpath looks good and obvious, but note the following property of
the contended path: if there's a task on the ->wait_list, the up() of
the current owner will "pass over" ownership to that waiting task, in a
wake-one manner, via the waiter->up flag and by removing the waiter from
the wait list.
That is all and fine in principle, but as implemented in
kernel/semaphore.c it also creates a nasty, hidden source of contention!
The contention comes from the following property of the new semaphore
code: the new owner owns the semaphore exclusively, even if it is not
running yet.
So if the old owner, even if just a few instructions later, does a
down() [lock_kernel()] again, it will be blocked and will have to wait
on the new owner to eventually be scheduled (possibly on another CPU)!
Or if another task gets to lock_kernel() sooner than the "new owner"
scheduled, it will be blocked unnecessarily and for a very long time
when there are 2000 tasks running.
I.e. the implementation of the new semaphores code does wake-one and
lock ownership in a very restrictive way - it does not allow
opportunistic re-locking of the lock at all and keeps the scheduler from
picking task order intelligently.
This kind of scheduling, with 2000 AIM7 processes running, creates awful
cross-scheduling between those 2000 tasks, causes reduced parallelism, a
throttled runqueue length and a lot of idle time. With increasing number
of CPUs it causes an exponentially worse behavior in AIM7, as the chance
for a newly woken new-owner task to actually run anytime soon is less
and less likely.
Note that it takes just a tiny bit of contention for the 'new-semaphore
catastrophy' to happen: the wakeup latencies get added to whatever small
contention there is, and quickly snowball out of control!
I believe Yanmin's findings and numbers support this analysis too.
The best fix for this problem is to use the same scheduling logic that
the kernel/mutex.c code uses: keep the wake-one behavior (that is OK and
wanted because we do not want to over-schedule), but also allow
opportunistic locking of the lock even if a wakee is already "in
flight".
The patch below implements this new logic. With this patch applied the
AIM7 regression is largely fixed on my quad testbox:
i.e. a 67% speedup. We are now back to within 1% of the v2.6.25
performance levels and have zero idle time during the test, as expected.
Btw., interactivity also improved dramatically with the fix - for
example console-switching became almost instantaneous during this
workload (which after all is running 2000 tasks at once!), without the
patch it was stuck for a minute at times.
There's another nice side-effect of this speedup patch, the new generic
semaphore code got even smaller:
text data bss dec hex filename
1241 0 0 1241 4d9 semaphore.o.before
1207 0 0 1207 4b7 semaphore.o.after
(because the waiter.up complication got removed.)
Longer-term we should look into using the mutex code for the generic
semaphore code as well - but i's not easy due to legacies and it's
outside of the scope of v2.6.26 and outside the scope of this patch as
well.
Found these two bugs while browsing through the code. The first one is
a cut-n-paste bug, instead of disabling the clock when request_irq()
fails, it enabled it once more. The second one fixes a debug printout,
AT91_SSC_IER is write only, AT91_SSC_IMR is readable (the printed string
actually says imr).

block: optimize generic_unplug_device()
Original patch from Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com>
Mike Anderson was doing an OLTP benchmark on a computer with 48 physical
disks mapped to one logical device via device mapper.
He found that there was a slowdown on request_queue->lock in function
generic_unplug_device. The slowdown is caused by the fact that when some
code calls unplug on the device mapper, device mapper calls unplug on all
physical disks. These unplug calls take the lock, find that the queue is
already unplugged, release the lock and exit.
With the below patch, performance of the benchmark was increased by 18%
(the whole OLTP application, not just block layer microbenchmarks).
So I'm submitting this patch for upstream. I think the patch is correct,
because when more threads call simultaneously plug and unplug, it is
unspecified, if the queue is or isn't plugged (so the patch can't make
this worse). And the caller that plugged the queue should unplug it
anyway. (if it doesn't, there's 3ms timeout).

[S390] s390-kvm: leave sie context on work. Removes preemption requirement
From: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
This patch fixes a bug with cpu bound guest on kvm-s390. Sometimes it
was impossible to deliver a signal to a spinning guest. We used
preemption as a circumvention. The preemption notifiers called
vcpu_load, which checked for pending signals and triggered a host
intercept. But even with preemption, a sigkill was not delivered
immediately.
This patch changes the low level host interrupt handler to check for the
SIE instruction, if TIF_WORK is set. In that case we change the
instruction pointer of the return PSW to rerun the vcpu_run loop. The kvm
code sees an intercept reason 0 if that happens. This patch adds accounting
for these types of intercept as well.
The advantages:
- works with and without preemption
- signals are delivered immediately
- much better host latencies without preemption

RDMA/cxgb3: Fix severe limit on userspace memory registration size
Currently, iw_cxgb3 is severely limited on the amount of userspace
memory that can be registered in in a single memory region, which
causes big problems for applications that expect to be able to
register 100s of MB.
The problem is that the driver uses a single kmalloc()ed buffer to
hold the physical buffer list (PBL) for the entire memory region
during registration, which means that 8 bytes of contiguous memory are
required for each page of memory being registered. For example, a 64
MB registration will require 128 KB of contiguous memory with 4 KB
pages, and it unlikely that such an allocation will succeed on a busy
system.
This is purely a driver problem: the temporary page list buffer is not
needed by the hardware, so we can fix this by writing the PBL to the
hardware in page-sized chunks rather than all at once. We do this by
splitting the memory registration operation up into several steps:
- Allocate PBL space in adapter memory for the full registration
- Copy PBL to adapter memory in chunks
- Allocate STag and enable memory region
This also allows several other cleanups to the __cxio_tpt_op()
interface and related parts of the driver.
This change leaves the reregister memory region and memory window
operations broken, but they already didn't work due to other
longstanding bugs, so fixing them will be left to a later patch.
Roland Dreier [Tue, 6 May 2008 22:03:38 +0000 (15:03 -0700)]
RDMA/cxgb3: Don't add PBL memory to gen_pool in chunks
Current iw_cxgb3 code adds PBL memory to the driver's gen_pool in 2 MB
chunks. This limits the largest single allocation that can be done to
the same size, which means that with 4 KB pages, each of which takes 8
bytes of PBL memory, the largest memory region that can be allocated
is 1 GB (256K PBL entries * 4 KB/entry).
Remove this limit by adding all the PBL memory in a single gen_pool
chunk, if possible. Add code that falls back to smaller chunks if

x86: fix PAE pmd_bad bootup warning
Fix warning from pmd_bad() at bootup on a HIGHMEM64G HIGHPTE x86_32.
That came from 9fc34113f6880b215cbea4e7017fc818700384c2 x86: debug pmd_bad();
but we understand now that the typecasting was wrong for PAE in the previous
version: pagetable pages above 4GB looked bad and stopped Arjan from booting.
And revert that cded932b75ab0a5f9181ee3da34a0a488d1a14fd x86: fix pmd_bad
and pud_bad to support huge pages. It was the wrong way round: we shouldn't
weaken every pmd_bad and pud_bad check to let huge pages slip through - in
part they check that we _don't_ have a huge page where it's not expected.
Put the x86 pmd_bad() and pud_bad() definitions back to what they have long
been: they can be improved (x86_32 should use PTE_MASK, to stop PAE thinking
junk in the upper word is good; and x86_64 should follow x86_32's stricter
comparison, to stop thinking any subset of required bits is good); but that
should be a later patch.
Fix Hans' good observation that follow_page() will never find pmd_huge()
because that would have already failed the pmd_bad test: test pmd_huge in
between the pmd_none and pmd_bad tests. Tighten x86's pmd_huge() check?
No, once it's a hugepage entry, it can get quite far from a good pmd: for
example, PROT_NONE leaves it with only ACCESSED of the KERN_PGTABLE bits.
However... though follow_page() contains this and another test for huge
pages, so it's nice to keep it working on them, where does it actually get
called on a huge page? get_user_pages() checks is_vm_hugetlb_page(vma) to
to call alternative hugetlb processing, as does unmap_vmas() and others.

[PATCH] fix SMP ordering hole in fcntl_setlk()
fcntl_setlk()/close() race prevention has a subtle hole - we need to
make sure that if we *do* have an fcntl/close race on SMP box, the
access to descriptor table and inode->i_flock won't get reordered.
As it is, we get STORE inode->i_flock, LOAD descriptor table entry vs.
STORE descriptor table entry, LOAD inode->i_flock with not a single
lock in common on both sides. We do have BKL around the first STORE,
but check in locks_remove_posix() is outside of BKL and for a good
reason - we don't want BKL on common path of close(2).
Solution is to hold ->file_lock around fcheck() in there; that orders
us wrt removal from descriptor table that preceded locks_remove_posix()
on close path and we either come first (in which case eviction will be
handled by the close side) or we'll see the effect of close and do
eviction ourselves. Note that even though it's read-only access,
we do need ->file_lock here - rcu_read_lock() won't be enough to
order the things.
And with that last patch to affs killing the last put_inode instance we
can finally, after many years of transition kill this racy and awkward
interface.
(It's kinda funny that even the description in
Documentation/filesystems/vfs.txt was entirely wrong..)

pata_atiixp: Don't disable
A couple of distributions (Fedora, Ubuntu) were having weird problems with the
ATI IXP series PATA controllers being reported as simplex. At the heart of
the problem is that both distros ignored the recommendations to load pata_acpi
and ata_generic *AFTER* specific host drivers.
The underlying cause however is that if you D3 and then D0 an ATI IXP it
helpfully throws away some configuration and won't let you rewrite it.
Add checks to ata_generic and pata_acpi to pin ATIIXP devices. Possibly the
real answer here is to quirk them and pin them, but right now we can't do that
before they've been pcim_enable()'d by a driver.
I'm indebted to David Gero for this. His bug report not only reported the
problem but identified the cause correctly and he had tested the right values
to prove what was going on

PIO is driven by DMA too, it doesn't make any noticeable difference

* LBA48 now works as long as it uses DMA (LBA48 devices still aren't
allowed as it can destroy data if PIO is used for any reason).
* No need to mask IRQs for read DMAs as IDMA_DONE is properly raised
after transfer to memory is actually completed. There will be some
spurious interrupts but host_intr will handle it correctly and
manipulating port IRQ mask interacts badly with the other port for
some reason, so command type dependent port IRQ masking is not used

sata_inic162x: update TF read handling
inic162x can't reliably read back TF or at least we don't know how to

This patch updates access to TF.
* implement inic_tf_read() which reads the TF area in mmio area
* implement custom inic_qc_fill_rtf() which only returns true if
status indicates device error. it'll be returning bogus addresses
for device errors but it'll be able to report why it failed at
least.
* implement custom inic_check_ready() and use ata_wait_after_reset()
instead of the SFF version.
* use inic_tf_read() for classification.

least makes the driver report 0's instead of random garbages while

sata_mv NCQ-EH for FIS-based switching
Convert sata_mv's EH for FIS-based switching (FBS) over to the
sequence recommended by Marvell. This enables us to catch/analyze
multiple failed links on a port-multiplier when using NCQ.
To do this, we clear the ERR_DEV bit in the EDMA Halt-Conditions register,
so that the EDMA engine doesn't self-disable on the first NCQ error.
Our EH code sets the MV_PP_FLAG_DELAYED_EH flag to prevent new commands
being queued while we await completion of all outstanding NCQ commands
on all links of the failed PM.
The SATA Test Control register tells us which links have failed,
so we must only wait for any other active links to finish up
before we stop the EDMA and run the .error_handler afterward.
The patch also includes skeleton code for handling of non-NCQ FBS operation.
This is more for documentation purposes right now, as that mode is not yet
enabled in sata_mv.

sata_mv delayed eh handling
Introduce a new "delayed error handling" mechanism in sata_mv,
to enable us to eventually deal with multiple simultaneous NCQ
failures on a single host link when a PM is present.
This involves a port flag (MV_PP_FLAG_DELAYED_EH) to prevent new
commands being queued, and a pmp bitmap to indicate which pmp links
had NCQ errors.
The new mv_pmp_error_handler() uses those values to invoke
ata_eh_analyze_ncq_error() on each failed link, prior to freezing
the port and passing control to sata_pmp_error_handler().
This is based upon a strategy suggested by Tejun.
For now, we just implement the delayed mechanism.

to take advantage of it.
