2006-03-22[PATCH] on_each_cpu(): disable local interruptsAndrew Morton3-30/+41
When on_each_cpu() runs the callback on other CPUs, it runs with local interrupts disabled. So we should run the function with local interrupts disabled on this CPU, too. And do the same for UP, so the callback is run in the same environment on both UP and SMP. (strictly it should do preempt_disable() too, but I think local_irq_disable is sufficiently equivalent). Also uninlines on_each_cpu(). softirq.c was the most appropriate file I could find, but it doesn't seem to justify creating a new file. Oh, and fix up that comment over (under?) x86's smp_call_function(). It drives me nuts. Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2006-03-22[PATCH] slab: Remove SLAB_NO_REAP optionChristoph Lameter4-14/+4
SLAB_NO_REAP is documented as an option that will cause this slab not to be reaped under memory pressure. However, that is not what happens. The only thing that SLAB_NO_REAP controls at the moment is the reclaim of the unused slab elements that were allocated in batch in cache_reap(). Cache_reap() is run every few seconds independently of memory pressure. Could we remove the whole thing? Its only used by three slabs anyways and I cannot find a reason for having this option. There is an additional problem with SLAB_NO_REAP. If set then the recovery of objects from alien caches is switched off. Objects not freed on the same node where they were initially allocated will only be reused if a certain amount of objects accumulates from one alien node (not very likely) or if the cache is explicitly shrunk. (Strangely __cache_shrink does not check for SLAB_NO_REAP) Getting rid of SLAB_NO_REAP fixes the problems with alien cache freeing.

2006-03-22[PATCH] slab: remove cachep->spinlockRavikiran G Thirumalai1-11/+9
Remove cachep->spinlock. Locking has moved to the kmem_list3 and most of the structures protected earlier by cachep->spinlock is now protected by the l3->list_lock. slab cache tunables like batchcount are accessed always with the cache_chain_mutex held. Patch tested on SMP and NUMA kernels with dbench processes running, constant onlining/offlining, and constant cache tuning, all at the same time.

2006-03-22[PATCH] kcalloc(): INT_MAX -> ULONG_MAXAdrian Bunk1-1/+1
Since size_t has the same size as a long on all architectures, it's enough for overflow checks to check against ULONG_MAX. This change could allow a compiler better optimization (especially in the n=1 case).

2006-03-22[PATCH] hugepage allocator cleanupNick Piggin1-16/+8
Insert "fresh" huge pages into the hugepage allocator by the same means as they are freed back into it. This reduces code size and allows enqueue_huge_page to be inlined into the hugepage free fastpath. Eliminate occurances of hugepages on the free list with non-zero refcount. This can allow stricter refcount checks in future. Also required for lockless pagecache. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de> "This patch also eliminates a leak "cleaned up" by re-clobbering the refcount on every allocation from the hugepage freelists. With respect to the lockless pagecache, the crucial aspect is to eliminate unconditional set_page_count() to 0 on pages with potentially nonzero refcounts, though closer inspection suggests the assignments removed are entirely spurious."

2006-03-22[PATCH] mm: cleanup bootmemNick Piggin1-13/+7
The bootmem code added to page_alloc.c duplicated some page freeing code that it really doesn't need to because it is not so performance critical. While we're here, make prefetching work properly by actually prefetching the page we're about to use before prefetching ahead to the next one (ie. get the most important transaction started first).

2006-03-22[PATCH] mm: simplify vmscan vs release refcountingNick Piggin2-22/+22
The VM has an interesting race where a page refcount can drop to zero, but it is still on the LRU lists for a short time. This was solved by testing a 0->1 refcount transition when picking up pages from the LRU, and dropping the refcount in that case. Instead, use atomic_add_unless to ensure we never pick up a 0 refcount page from the LRU, thus a 0 refcount page will never have its refcount elevated until it is allocated again.

Remove the sleep_avg multiplier.

This has many advantages such as allowing the compiler to validate the syntax of the whole code, making it cleaner and easier to understand, and ultimately allowing people to define configuration symbols in terms of variables if they really want to dynamically support multiple bus configurations at the same time (with the unavoidable performance cost).

2006-03-21[PATCH] sky2: handle all error irqsStephen Hemminger2-12/+49
The hardware has additional error trap interrupt bits. I have never seen them trigger, but if they do, it looks like this might be useful. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.rog> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
2006-03-21[PATCH] sky2: transmit recoveryStephen Hemminger1-6/+31
This patch decodes state and revovers from any races in the transmit timeout and NAPI logic. It should never trigger, but if it does then do the right thing. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
