15 years agoftrace: function tracer with irqs disabled
Steven Rostedt [Tue, 4 Nov 2008 04:15:57 +0000 (23:15 -0500)]
ftrace: function tracer with irqs disabled

Impact: disable interrupts during trace entry creation (as opposed to preempt)

To help with performance, I set the ftracer to not disable interrupts,
and only to disable preemption. If an interrupt occurred, it would not
be traced, because the function tracer protects itself from recursion.
This may be faster, but the trace output might miss some traces.

This patch makes the fuction trace disable interrupts, but it also
adds a runtime feature to disable preemption instead. It does this by
having two different tracer functions. When the function tracer is
enabled, it will check to see which version is requested (irqs disabled
or preemption disabled). Then it will use the corresponding function
as the tracer.

Irq disabling is the default behaviour, but if the user wants better
performance, with the chance of missing traces, then they can choose
the preempt disabled version.

Running hackbench 3 times with the irqs disabled and 3 times with
the preempt disabled function tracer yielded:

tracing type       times            entries recorded
------------      --------          ----------------
irq disabled      43.393            166433066
                  43.282            166172618
                  43.298            166256704

preempt disabled  38.969            159871710
                  38.943            159972935
                  39.325            161056510

Average:

   irqs disabled:  43.324           166287462
preempt disabled:  39.079           160300385

 preempt is 10.8 percent faster than irqs disabled.

I wrote a patch to count function trace recursion and reran hackbench.

With irq disabled: 1,150 times the function tracer did not trace due to
  recursion.
with preempt disabled: 5,117,718 times.

The thousand times with irq disabled could be due to NMIs, or simply a case
where it called a function that was not protected by notrace.

But we also see that a large amount of the trace is lost with the
preempt version.

ftrace: introduce ftrace_preempt_disable()/enable()

Impact: add new ftrace-plugin internal APIs

Parts of the tracer needs to be careful about schedule recursion.
If the NEED_RESCHED flag is set, a preempt_enable will call schedule.
Inside the schedule function, the NEED_RESCHED flag is cleared.

The problem arises when a trace happens in the schedule function but before
NEED_RESCHED is cleared. The race is as follows:

schedule()
  >> tracer called

    trace_function()
       preempt_disable()
       [ record trace ]
       preempt_enable()  <<- here's the issue.

         [check NEED_RESCHED]
          schedule()
          [ Repeat the above, over and over again ]

The naive approach is simply to use preempt_enable_no_schedule instead.
The problem with that approach is that, although we solve the schedule
recursion issue, we now might lose a preemption check when not in the
schedule function.

  trace_function()
    preempt_disable()
    [ record trace ]
    [Interrupt comes in and sets NEED_RESCHED]
    preempt_enable_no_resched()
    [continue without scheduling]

The way ftrace handles this problem is with the following approach:

int resched;

resched = need_resched();
preempt_disable_notrace();
[record trace]
if (resched)
preempt_enable_no_sched_notrace();
else
preempt_enable_notrace();

This may seem like the opposite of what we want. If resched is set
then we call the "no_sched" version??  The reason we do this is because
if NEED_RESCHED is set before we disable preemption, there's two reasons
for that:

  1) we are in an atomic code path
  2) we are already on our way to the schedule function, and maybe even
     in the schedule function, but have yet to clear the flag.

Both the above cases we do not want to schedule.

This solution has already been implemented within the ftrace infrastructure.
But the problem is that it has been implemented several times. This patch
encapsulates this code to two nice functions.

  resched = ftrace_preempt_disable();
  [ record trace]
  ftrace_preempt_enable(resched);

This way the tracers do not need to worry about getting it right.

sparc64: Fix PCI resource mapping on sparc64

There is a problem discovered in recent versions of ATI Mach64 driver
in X.org on sparc64 architecture. In short, the driver fails to mmap
MMIO aperture (PCI resource #2).

I've found that kernel's __pci_mmap_make_offset() returns EINVAL. It
checks whether user attempts to mmap more than the resource length,
which is 0x1000 bytes in our case. But PAGE_SIZE on SPARC64 is 0x2000
and this is what actually is being mmaped. So __pci_mmap_make_offset()
failed for this PCI resource.

15 years agox86: Clean up late e820 resource allocation
Linus Torvalds [Sat, 1 Nov 2008 17:17:22 +0000 (10:17 -0700)]
x86: Clean up late e820 resource allocation

This makes the late e820 resources use 'insert_resource_expand_to_fit()'
instead of doing a 'reserve_region_with_split()', and also avoids
marking them as IORESOURCE_BUSY.

This results in us being perfectly happy to use pre-existing PCI
resources even if they were marked as being in a reserved region, while
still avoiding any _new_ allocations in the reserved regions.  It also
makes for a simpler and more accurate resource tree.

Example resource allocation from Jonathan Corbet, who has firmware that
has an e820 reserved entry that covered a big range (e0000000-fed003ff),
and that had various PCI resources in it set up by firmware.

With old kernels, the reserved range would force us to re-allocate all
pre-existing PCI resources, and his reserved range would end up looking
like this:

e0000000-fed003ff : reserved
  fec00000-fec00fff : IOAPIC 0
  fed00000-fed003ff : HPET 0

where only the pre-allocated special regions (IOAPIC and HPET) were kept
around.

With 2.6.28-rc2, which uses 'reserve_region_with_split()', Jonathan's
resource tree looked like this:

e0000000-fe7fffff : reserved
fe800000-fe8fffff : PCI Bus 0000:01
 fe800000-fe8fffff : reserved
fe900000-fe9d9aff : reserved
fe9d9b00-fe9d9bff : 0000:00:1f.3
 fe9d9b00-fe9d9bff : reserved
fe9d9c00-fe9d9fff : 0000:00:1a.7
 fe9d9c00-fe9d9fff : reserved
fe9da000-fe9dafff : 0000:00:03.3
 fe9da000-fe9dafff : reserved
fe9db000-fe9dbfff : 0000:00:19.0
 fe9db000-fe9dbfff : reserved
fe9dc000-fe9dffff : 0000:00:1b.0
 fe9dc000-fe9dffff : reserved
fe9e0000-fe9fffff : 0000:00:19.0
 fe9e0000-fe9fffff : reserved
fea00000-fea7ffff : 0000:00:02.0
 fea00000-fea7ffff : reserved
fea80000-feafffff : 0000:00:02.1
 fea80000-feafffff : reserved
feb00000-febfffff : 0000:00:02.0
 feb00000-febfffff : reserved
fec00000-fed003ff : reserved
 fec00000-fec00fff : IOAPIC 0
 fed00000-fed003ff : HPET 0

and because the reserved entry had been split and moved into the
individual resources, and because it used the IORESOURCE_BUSY flag, the
drivers that actually wanted to _use_ those resources couldn't actually
attach to them:

e1000e 0000:00:19.0: BAR 0: can't reserve mem region [0xfe9e0000-0xfe9fffff]
HDA Intel 0000:00:1b.0: BAR 0: can't reserve mem region [0xfe9dc000-0xfe9dffff]

with this patch, the resource tree instead becomes

e0000000-fed003ff : reserved
  fe800000-fe8fffff : PCI Bus 0000:01
  fe9d9b00-fe9d9bff : 0000:00:1f.3
  fe9d9c00-fe9d9fff : 0000:00:1a.7
    fe9d9c00-fe9d9fff : ehci_hcd
  fe9da000-fe9dafff : 0000:00:03.3
  fe9db000-fe9dbfff : 0000:00:19.0
    fe9db000-fe9dbfff : e1000e
  fe9dc000-fe9dffff : 0000:00:1b.0
    fe9dc000-fe9dffff : ICH HD audio
  fe9e0000-fe9fffff : 0000:00:19.0
    fe9e0000-fe9fffff : e1000e
  fea00000-fea7ffff : 0000:00:02.0
  fea80000-feafffff : 0000:00:02.1
  feb00000-febfffff : 0000:00:02.0
  fec00000-fec00fff : IOAPIC 0
  fed00000-fed003ff : HPET 0

ie the one reserved region now ends up surrounding all the PCI resources
that were allocated inside of it by firmware, and because it is not
marked BUSY, drivers have no problem attaching to the pre-allocated
resources.

SELinux: properly handle empty tty_files list

SELinux has wrongly (since 2004) had an incorrect test for an empty
tty->tty_files list.  With an empty list selinux would be pointing to part
of the tty struct itself and would then proceed to dereference that value
and again dereference that result.  An F10 change to plymouth on a ppc64

list_empty() to handle empty lists rather than looking at a meaningless
location.

libata: add whitelist for devices with known good pata-sata bridges

libata currently imposes a UDMA5 max transfer rate and 200 sector max
transfer size for SATA devices that sit behind a pata-sata bridge. Lots
of devices have known good bridges that don't need this limit applied.
The MTRON SSD disks are such devices. Transfer rates are increased by
20-30% with the restriction removed.

So add a "blacklist" entry for the MTRON devices, with a flag indicating
that the bridge is known good.

15 years agosata_via: fix support for 5287
Tejun Heo [Tue, 21 Oct 2008 15:46:36 +0000 (00:46 +0900)]
sata_via: fix support for 5287

5287 used to be treated as vt6420 but it didn't work.  It's new family
of controllers called vt8251 which hosts four SATA ports as M/S of the
two ATA ports.  This configuration is rather peculiar in that although
the M/S devices are on the same port, each have its own SCR (or
equivalent link status/control) registers which screws up the
port-link-device hierarchy assumed by libata.  Another controller
which falls into this category is ata_piix w/ SIDPR access.

libata now has facility to deal with this class of controllers named
slave_link.  A low level driver for such controllers can just call
ata_slave_link_init() on the respective ports and libata will handle
all the difficult parts like following up with single SRST after
hardresetting both ports.

This patch creates new controller class vt8251, implements slave_link
aware init sequence and config space based SCR access for it and moves
5287 to the new class.

This patch is based on Joseph Chan's larger patch which was created
before slave_link was implemented in libata.

libata: Avoid overflow in ata_tf_to_lba48() when tf->hba_lbal > 127

In ata_tf_to_lba48(), when evaluating

(tf->hob_lbal & 0xff) << 24

the expression is promoted to signed int (since int can hold all values
of u8).  However, if hob_lbal is 128 or more, then it is treated as a
negative signed value and sign-extended when promoted to u64 to | into
sectors, which leads to the MSB 32 bits of section getting set
incorrectly.

For example, Phillip O'Donnell <phillip.odonnell@gmail.com> reported
that a 1.5GB drive caused:

    ata3.00: HPA detected: current 2930277168, native 18446744072344861488

where 2930277168 == 0xAEA87B30 and 18446744072344861488 == 0xffffffffaea87b30
which shows the problem when hob_lbal is 0xae.

Fix this by adding a cast to u64, just as is used by for hob_lbah and
hob_lbam in the function.
