they're added internally, and that any extra arguments are
passed along to the report script (but not to the record

expected arguments, by simply specifying the script and args to

14 years agoperf: Fix endianness argument compatibility with OPT_BOOLEAN() and introduce OPT_INCR()

perf: Fix endianness argument compatibility with OPT_BOOLEAN() and introduce OPT_INCR()

Parsing an option from the command line with OPT_BOOLEAN on a
bool data type would not work on a big-endian machine due to the
manner in which the boolean was being cast into an int and
incremented. For example, running 'perf probe --list' on a
PowerPC machine would fail to properly set the list_events bool
and would therefore print out the usage information and
terminate.

This patch makes OPT_BOOLEAN work as expected with a bool
datatype. For cases where the original OPT_BOOLEAN was
intentionally being used to increment an int each time it was
passed in on the command line, this patch introduces OPT_INCR
with the old behaviour of OPT_BOOLEAN (the verbose variable is
currently the only such example of this).

I have reviewed every use of OPT_BOOLEAN to verify that a true
C99 bool was passed. Where integers were used, I verified that
they were only being used for boolean logic and changed them to
bools to ensure that they would not be mistakenly used as ints.
The major exception was the verbose variable which now uses
OPT_INCR instead of OPT_BOOLEAN.

hvc_console: Fix race between hvc_close and hvc_remove

I don't claim to understand the tty layer, but it seems like hvc_open and
hvc_close should be balanced in their kref reference counting.

Right now we get a kref every call to hvc_open:

        if (hp->count++ > 0) {
                tty_kref_get(tty); <----- here
                spin_unlock_irqrestore(&hp->lock, flags);
                hvc_kick();
                return 0;
        } /* else count == 0 */

        tty->driver_data = hp;

        hp->tty = tty_kref_get(tty); <------ or here if hp->count was 0

But hvc_close has:

        tty_kref_get(tty);

        if (--hp->count == 0) {
...
                /* Put the ref obtained in hvc_open() */
                tty_kref_put(tty);
...
        }

        tty_kref_put(tty);

Since the outside kref get/put balance we only do a single kref_put when
count reaches 0.

The patch below changes things to call tty_kref_put once for every
hvc_close call, and with that my machine boots fine.

14 years agomemcg: fix race in file_mapped accounting
KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki [Tue, 6 Apr 2010 21:35:05 +0000 (14:35 -0700)]
memcg: fix race in file_mapped accounting

Presently, memcg's FILE_MAPPED accounting has following race with
move_account (happens at rmdir()).

    increment page->mapcount (rmap.c)
    mem_cgroup_update_file_mapped()           move_account()
      lock_page_cgroup()
      check page_mapped() if
      page_mapped(page)>1 {
FILE_MAPPED -1 from old memcg
FILE_MAPPED +1 to old memcg

      unlock_page_cgroup()
    lock_page_cgroup()
    FILE_MAPPED + 1 to pc->mem_cgroup
    unlock_page_cgroup()

Then,
old memcg (-1 file mapped)
new memcg (+2 file mapped)

This happens because move_account see page_mapped() which is not guarded
by lock_page_cgroup().  This patch adds FILE_MAPPED flag to page_cgroup
and move account information based on it.  Now, all checks are synchronous
with lock_page_cgroup().

14 years agopagemap: fix pfn calculation for hugepage
Naoya Horiguchi [Tue, 6 Apr 2010 21:35:04 +0000 (14:35 -0700)]
pagemap: fix pfn calculation for hugepage

When we look into pagemap using page-types with option -p, the value of
pfn for hugepages looks wrong (see below.) This is because pte was
evaluated only once for one vma although it should be updated for each
hugepage.  This patch fixes it.

  $ page-types -p 3277 -Nl -b huge
  voffset   offset  len     flags
  7f21e8a00 11e400  1       ___U___________H_G________________
  7f21e8a01 11e401  1ff     ________________TG________________
               ^^^
  7f21e8c00 11e400  1       ___U___________H_G________________
  7f21e8c01 11e401  1ff     ________________TG________________
               ^^^

One hugepage contains 1 head page and 511 tail pages in x86_64 and each
two lines represent each hugepage.  Voffset and offset mean virtual
address and physical address in the page unit, respectively.  The
different hugepages should not have the same offset value.

With this patch applied:

  $ page-types -p 3386 -Nl -b huge
  voffset   offset   len    flags
  7fec7a600 112c00   1      ___UD__________H_G________________
  7fec7a601 112c01   1ff    ________________TG________________

  7fec7a800 113200   1      ___UD__________H_G________________
  7fec7a801 113201   1ff    ________________TG________________
               ^^^
               OK

More info:

- This patch modifies walk_page_range()'s hugepage walker.  But the
  change only affects pagemap_read(), which is the only caller of hugepage
  callback.

- Without this patch, hugetlb_entry() callback is called per vma, that
  doesn't match the natural expectation from its name.

- With this patch, hugetlb_entry() is called per hugepte entry and the
  callback can become much simpler.

We now call through generic_file_aio_write -> generic_write_sync ->

But drivers/char/raw.c doesn't set an fsync method.

We have two options: fix it or remove the raw driver completely.  I'm
happy to do either, the fact this has been broken for so long suggests it
is rarely used.

The patch below adds an fsync method to the raw driver.  My knowledge of
the block layer is pretty sketchy so this could do with a once over.

If we instead decide to remove the raw driver, this patch might still be
useful as a backport to 2.6.33 and 2.6.32.

mm: revert "vmscan: get_scan_ratio() cleanup"

Shaohua Li reported his tmpfs streaming I/O test can lead to make oom.
The test uses a 6G tmpfs in a system with 3G memory.  In the tmpfs, there
are 6 copies of kernel source and the test does kbuild for each copy.  His
investigation shows the test has a lot of rotated anon pages and quite few
file pages, so get_scan_ratio calculates percent[0] (i.e.  scanning
percent for anon) to be zero.  Actually the percent[0] shoule be a big
value, but our calculation round it to zero.

Although before commit 84b18490 ("vmscan: get_scan_ratio() cleanup") , we
have the same problem too.  But the old logic can rescue percent[0]==0
case only when priority==0.  It had hided the real issue.  I didn't think
merely streaming io can makes percent[0]==0 && priority==0 situation.  but
I was wrong.

So, definitely we have to fix such tmpfs streaming io issue.  but anyway I
revert the regression commit at first.

This reverts commit 84b18490d1f1bc7ed5095c929f78bc002eb70f26.

vesafb: use platform_driver_probe() instead of platform_driver_register()

Commit c2e13037e6794bd0d9de3f9ecabf5615f15c160b ("platform-drivers: move
probe to .devinit.text in drivers/video") introduced a huge amount of
section mismatch warnings in vesafb code.  Rather than converting all of
the annotations, do the obvious and revert the __init -> __devinit change,
and use the recommended (in that patch) alternative to calling
platform_driver_register(): vesafb depends on information obtained from by
kernel at boot time, cannot be a module, and no post-boot devices can ever
show up.

include/linux/kfifo.h: fix INIT_KFIFO()

DECLARE_KFIFO creates a union with a struct kfifo and a buffer array with
size [size + sizeof(struct kfifo)].

INIT_KFIFO then sets the buffer pointer in struct kfifo to point to the
beginning of the buffer array which means that the first call to kfifo_in
will overwrite members of the struct kfifo.

14 years agomm: avoid null-pointer deref in sync_mm_rss()

mm: avoid null-pointer deref in sync_mm_rss()

- We weren't zeroing p->rss_stat[] at fork()

- Consequently sync_mm_rss() was dereferencing tsk->mm for kernel
  threads and was oopsing.

- Make __sync_task_rss_stat() static, too.
