git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core Pull driver core patches from Greg KH: "Here are some driver core patches for 3.11-rc2. They aren't really bugfixes, but a bunch of new helper macros for drivers to properly create attribute groups, which drivers and subsystems need to fix up a ton of race issues with incorrectly creating sysfs files (binary and normal) after userspace has been told that the device is present. Also here is the ability to create binary files as attribute groups, to solve that race condition, which was impossible to do before this, so that's my fault the drivers were broken. The majority of the .c changes is indenting and moving code around a bit. It affects no existing code, but allows the large backlog of 70+ patches that I already have created to start flowing into the different subtrees, instead of having to live in my driver-core tree, causing merge nightmares in linux-next for the next few months. These were finalized too late for the -rc1 merge window, which is why they were didn't make that pull request, testing and review from others didn't happen until a few weeks ago, and then there's the whole distraction of the past few days, which prevented these from getting to you sooner, sorry about that. Oh, and there's a bugfix for the documentation build warning in here as well. All of these have been in linux-next this week, with no reported problems" * tag 'driver-core-3.11-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core: driver-core: fix new kernel-doc warning in base/platform.c sysfs: use file mode defines from stat.h sysfs: add more helper macro's for (bin_)attribute(_groups) driver core: add default groups to struct class driver core: Introduce device_create_groups sysfs: prevent warning when only using binary attributes sysfs: add support for binary attributes in groups driver core: device.h: add RW and RO attribute macros sysfs.h: add BIN_ATTR macro sysfs.h: add ATTRIBUTE_GROUPS() macro sysfs.h: add __ATTR_RW() macro

2013-07-14kernel: delete __cpuinit usage from all core kernel filesPaul Gortmaker5-13/+13
The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time") is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created with improper use of the various __init prefixes. After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone, we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h. This removes all the uses of the __cpuinit macros from C files in the core kernel directories (kernel, init, lib, mm, and include) that don't really have a specific maintainer.

But the SLUB code is relatively lockless, and the spin_locks there are raw_spin_locks (not converted to mutexes), thus I believe this bug can happen in mainline without -rt features. The -rt patch is just good at triggering mainline bugs ;-) Anyway, looking at where this crashed, it seems that the page variable can be NULL when passed to the node_match() function (which does not check if it is NULL). When this happens we get the above panic. As page is only used in slab_alloc() to check if the node matches, if it's NULL I'm assuming that we can say it doesn't and call the __slab_alloc() code.

2013-07-10zswap: add to mm/Seth Jennings3-0/+964
zswap is a thin backend for frontswap that takes pages that are in the process of being swapped out and attempts to compress them and store them in a RAM-based memory pool. This can result in a significant I/O reduction on the swap device and, in the case where decompressing from RAM is faster than reading from the swap device, can also improve workload performance. It also has support for evicting swap pages that are currently compressed in zswap to the swap device on an LRU(ish) basis. This functionality makes zswap a true cache in that, once the cache is full, the oldest pages can be moved out of zswap to the swap device so newer pages can be compressed and stored in zswap.

2013-07-10zbud: add to mm/Seth Jennings3-0/+538
zbud is an special purpose allocator for storing compressed pages. It is designed to store up to two compressed pages per physical page. While this design limits storage density, it has simple and deterministic reclaim properties that make it preferable to a higher density approach when reclaim will be used. zbud works by storing compressed pages, or "zpages", together in pairs in a single memory page called a "zbud page". The first buddy is "left justifed" at the beginning of the zbud page, and the last buddy is "right justified" at the end of the zbud page. The benefit is that if either buddy is freed, the freed buddy space, coalesced with whatever slack space that existed between the buddies, results in the largest possible free region within the zbud page. zbud also provides an attractive lower bound on density. The ratio of zpages to zbud pages can not be less than 1. This ensures that zbud can never "do harm" by using more pages to store zpages than the uncompressed zpages would have used on their own. This implementation is a rewrite of the zbud allocator internally used by zcache in the driver/staging tree. The rewrite was necessary to remove some of the zcache specific elements that were ingrained throughout and provide a generic allocation interface that can later be used by zsmalloc and others. This patch adds zbud to mm/ for later use by zswap.

Use css_get/put instead of mem_cgroup_get/put. We can't do a simple replacement, because here mem_cgroup_put() is called during mem_cgroup_css_free(), while mem_cgroup_css_free() won't be called until css refcnt goes down to 0. Instead we increment css refcnt in mem_cgroup_css_offline(), and then check if there's still kmem charges. If not, css refcnt will be decremented immediately, otherwise the refcnt will be released after the last kmem allocation is uncahred.

2013-07-09memcg: don't use mem_cgroup_get() when creating a kmemcg cacheLi Zefan1-5/+5
Use css_get()/css_put() instead of mem_cgroup_get()/mem_cgroup_put(). There are two things being done in the current code: First, we acquired a css_ref to make sure that the underlying cgroup would not go away. That is a short lived reference, and it is put as soon as the cache is created. At this point, we acquire a long-lived per-cache memcg reference count to guarantee that the memcg will still be alive. so it is: enqueue: css_get create : memcg_get, css_put destroy: memcg_put So we only need to get rid of the memcg_get, change the memcg_put to css_put, and get rid of the now extra css_put.

2013-07-09memcg, kmem: fix reference count handling on the error pathMichal Hocko1-8/+0
mem_cgroup_css_online calls mem_cgroup_put if memcg_init_kmem fails. This is not correct because only memcg_propagate_kmem takes an additional reference while mem_cgroup_sockets_init is allowed to fail as well (although no current implementation fails) but it doesn't take any reference. This all suggests that it should be memcg_propagate_kmem that should clean up after itself so this patch moves mem_cgroup_put over there. Unfortunately this is not that easy (as pointed out by Li Zefan) because memcg_kmem_mark_dead marks the group dead (KMEM_ACCOUNTED_DEAD) if it is marked active (KMEM_ACCOUNTED_ACTIVE) which is the case even if memcg_propagate_kmem fails so the additional reference is dropped in that case in kmem_cgroup_destroy which means that the reference would be dropped two times. The easiest way then would be to simply remove mem_cgrroup_put from mem_cgroup_css_online and rely on kmem_cgroup_destroy doing the right thing.

2013-07-09mm: vmscan: do not scale writeback pages when deciding whether to set ↵Mel Gorman1-15/+1
ZONE_WRITEBACK After the patch "mm: vmscan: Flatten kswapd priority loop" was merged the scanning priority of kswapd changed. The priority now rises until it is scanning enough pages to meet the high watermark. shrink_inactive_list sets ZONE_WRITEBACK if a number of pages were encountered under writeback but this value is scaled based on the priority. As kswapd frequently scans with a higher priority now it is relatively easy to set ZONE_WRITEBACK. This patch removes the scaling and treates writeback pages similar to how it treats unqueued dirty pages and congested pages. The user-visible effect should be that kswapd will writeback fewer pages from reclaim context.

Direct reclaim is not aborting to allow compaction to go ahead properly. do_try_to_free_pages is told to abort reclaim which is happily ignores and instead increases priority instead until it reaches 0 and starts shrinking file/anon equally.

2013-07-09mm/vmalloc.c: fix an overflow bug in alloc_vmap_area()Zhang Yanfei1-3/+3
When searching a vmap area in the vmalloc space, we use (addr + size - 1) to check if the value is less than addr, which is an overflow. But we assign (addr + size) to vmap_area->va_end. So if we come across the below case: (addr + size - 1) : not overflow (addr + size) : overflow we will assign an overflow value (e.g 0) to vmap_area->va_end, And this will trigger BUG in __insert_vmap_area, causing system panic. So using (addr + size) to check the overflow should be the correct behaviour, not (addr + size - 1).

2013-07-09memcg: do not account memory used for cache creationGlauber Costa1-0/+2
The memory we used to hold the memcg arrays is currently accounted to the current memcg. But that creates a problem, because that memory can only be freed after the last user is gone. Our only way to know which is the last user, is to hook up to freeing time, but the fact that we still have some in flight kmallocs will prevent freeing to happen. I believe therefore to be just easier to account this memory as global overhead.

2013-07-09memcg: also test for skip accounting at the page allocation levelGlauber Costa1-0/+28
The memory we used to hold the memcg arrays is currently accounted to the current memcg. But that creates a problem, because that memory can only be freed after the last user is gone. Our only way to know which is the last user, is to hook up to freeing time, but the fact that we still have some in flight kmallocs will prevent freeing to happen. I believe therefore to be just easier to account this memory as global overhead. This patch (of 2): Disabling accounting is only relevant for some specific memcg internal allocations. Therefore we would initially not have such check at memcg_kmem_newpage_charge, since direct calls to the page allocator that are marked with GFP_KMEMCG only happen outside memcg core. We are mostly concerned with cache allocations and by having this test at memcg_kmem_get_cache we are already able to relay the allocation to the root cache and bypass the memcg caches altogether. There is one exception, though: the SLUB allocator does not create large order caches, but rather service large kmallocs directly from the page allocator. Therefore, the following sequence, when backed by the SLUB allocator: memcg_stop_kmem_account(); kmalloc(<large_number>) memcg_resume_kmem_account(); would effectively ignore the fact that we should skip accounting, since it will drive us directly to this function without passing through the cache selector memcg_kmem_get_cache. Such large allocations are extremely rare but can happen, for instance, for the cache arrays. This was never a problem in practice, because we weren't skipping accounting for the cache arrays. All the allocations we were skipping were fairly small. However, the fact that we were not skipping those allocations are a problem and can prevent the memcgs from going away. As we fix that, we need to make sure that the fix will also work with the SLUB allocator.

2013-07-09mm/vmalloc.c: remove dead code in vb_allocZhang Yanfei1-15/+1
Space in a vmap block that was once allocated is considered dirty and not made available for allocation again before the whole block is recycled. The result is that free space within a vmap block is always contiguous. So if a vmap block has enough free space for allocation, the allocation is impossible to fail. Thus, the fragmented block purging was never invoked from vb_alloc(). So remove this dead code.

While doing some code inspection, I noticed that the slob constructor method can be called with a NULL pointer. If memory is tight and slob fails to allocate with slob_alloc() or slob_new_pages() it still calls the ctor() method with a NULL pointer. Looking at the first ctor() method I found, I noticed that it can not handle a NULL pointer (I'm sure others probably can't either): static void sighand_ctor(void *data) { struct sighand_struct *sighand = data; spin_lock_init(&sighand->siglock); init_waitqueue_head(&sighand->signalfd_wqh); } The solution is to only call the ctor() method if allocation succeeded.
