When the user passes the kernel parameter acpi_enforce_resources=lax,
the ACPI resources are no longer protected, so a native driver can
make use of them. In that case, we do not want the asus_atk0110 to be
loaded. Unfortunately, this driver loads automatically due to its
MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE, so the user ends up with two drivers loaded for
the same device - this is bad.

So I suggest that we prevent the asus_atk0110 driver from loading if
acpi_enforce_resources=lax.

14 years agonuma: slab: use numa_mem_id() for slab local memory node
Lee Schermerhorn [Wed, 26 May 2010 21:45:03 +0000 (14:45 -0700)]
numa: slab: use numa_mem_id() for slab local memory node

Example usage of generic "numa_mem_id()":

The mainline slab code, since ~ 2.6.19, does not handle memoryless nodes
well.  Specifically, the "fast path"--____cache_alloc()--will never
succeed as slab doesn't cache offnode object on the per cpu queues, and
for memoryless nodes, all memory will be "off node" relative to
numa_node_id().  This adds significant overhead to all kmem cache
allocations, incurring a significant regression relative to earlier
kernels [from before slab.c was reorganized].

This patch uses the generic topology function "numa_mem_id()" to return
the "effective local memory node" for the calling context.  This is the
first node in the local node's generic fallback zonelist-- the same node
that "local" mempolicy-based allocations would use.  This lets slab cache
these "local" allocations and avoid fallback/refill on every allocation.

N.B.: Slab will need to handle node and memory hotplug events that could
change the value returned by numa_mem_id() for any given node if recent
changes to address memory hotplug don't already address this.  E.g., flush
all per cpu slab queues before rebuilding the zonelists while the
"machine" is held in the stopped state.

Performance impact on "hackbench 400 process 200"

The slowdown of the patched kernel from ~12 sec to ~28 seconds when
configured with memoryless nodes is the result of all cpus allocating from
a single node's mm pagepool.  The cache lines of the single node are
distributed/interleaved over the memory of the real physical nodes, but
the zone lock, list heads, ...  of the single node with memory still each

14 years agonuma: introduce numa_mem_id()- effective local memory node id
Lee Schermerhorn [Wed, 26 May 2010 21:45:00 +0000 (14:45 -0700)]
numa: introduce numa_mem_id()- effective local memory node id

Introduce numa_mem_id(), based on generic percpu variable infrastructure
to track "nearest node with memory" for archs that support memoryless
nodes.

Define API in <linux/topology.h> when CONFIG_HAVE_MEMORYLESS_NODES
defined, else stubs.  Architectures will define HAVE_MEMORYLESS_NODES
if/when they support them.

Archs can override definitions of:

numa_mem_id() - returns node number of "local memory" node
set_numa_mem() - initialize [this cpus'] per cpu variable 'numa_mem'
cpu_to_mem()  - return numa_mem for specified cpu; may be used as lvalue

Generic initialization of 'numa_mem' occurs in __build_all_zonelists().
This will initialize the boot cpu at boot time, and all cpus on change of
numa_zonelist_order, or when node or memory hot-plug requires zonelist
rebuild.  Archs that support memoryless nodes will need to initialize
'numa_mem' for secondary cpus as they're brought on-line.

numa: add generic percpu var numa_node_id() implementation

Rework the generic version of the numa_node_id() function to use the new
generic percpu variable infrastructure.

Guard the new implementation with a new config option:

        CONFIG_USE_PERCPU_NUMA_NODE_ID.

Archs which support this new implemention will default this option to 'y'
when NUMA is configured.  This config option could be removed if/when all
archs switch over to the generic percpu implementation of numa_node_id().
Arch support involves:

  1) converting any existing per cpu variable implementations to use
     this implementation.  x86_64 is an instance of such an arch.
  2) archs that don't use a per cpu variable for numa_node_id() will
     need to initialize the new per cpu variable "numa_node" as cpus
     are brought on-line.  ia64 is an example.
  3) Defining USE_PERCPU_NUMA_NODE_ID in arch dependent Kconfig--e.g.,
     when NUMA is configured.  This is required because I have
     retained the old implementation by default to allow archs to
     be modified incrementally, as desired.

Subsequent patches will convert x86_64 and ia64 to use this implemenation.

14 years agofs/: do not fallback to default_llseek() when readdir() uses BKL
jan Blunck [Wed, 26 May 2010 21:44:53 +0000 (14:44 -0700)]
fs/: do not fallback to default_llseek() when readdir() uses BKL

Do not use the fallback default_llseek() if the readdir operation of the
filesystem still uses the big kernel lock.

Since llseek() modifies
file->f_pos of the directory directly it may need locking to not confuse
readdir which usually uses file->f_pos directly as well

Since the special characteristics of the BKL (unlocked on schedule) are
not necessary in this case, the inode mutex can be used for locking as
provided by generic_file_llseek().  This is only possible since all
filesystems, except reiserfs, either use a directory as a flat file or
with disk address offsets.  Reiserfs on the other hand uses a 32bit hash
off the filename as the offset so generic_file_llseek() can get used as
well since the hash is always smaller than sb->s_maxbytes (= (512 << 32) -
blocksize).

do because the same sequence of numbers should be generated each time we
boot or the link comes up.

A prandom32_seed() inline function is added to the header file.  It is
inlined not for speed, but so the function won't be expanded in the base

INIT_SIGHAND: use SIG_DFL instead of NULL

Cosmetic, no changes in the compiled code. Just s/NULL/SIG_DFL/ to make
it more readable and grep-friendly.

Note: probably SIG_IGN makes more sense, we could kill ignore_signals().
But then kernel_init() should do flush_signal_handlers() before exec().

14 years agopids: fix fork_idle() to setup ->pids correctly
Oleg Nesterov [Wed, 26 May 2010 21:44:11 +0000 (14:44 -0700)]
pids: fix fork_idle() to setup ->pids correctly

copy_process(pid => &init_struct_pid) doesn't do attach_pid/etc.

It shouldn't, but this means that the idle threads run with the wrong
pids copied from the caller's task_struct. In x86 case the caller is
either kernel_init() thread or keventd.

In particular, this means that after the series of cpu_up/cpu_down an
idle thread (which never exits) can run with .pid pointing to nowhere.

Change fork_idle() to initialize idle->pids[] correctly. We only set
.pid = &init_struct_pid but do not add .node to list, INIT_TASK() does
the same for the boot-cpu idle thread (swapper).
