In order to allow better integration between the cpuidle framework and the scheduler, reducing the distance between these two sub-components will facilitate this integration by moving part of the cpuidle code in the idle task file and, because idle.c is in the sched directory, we have access to the scheduler's private structures. This patch splits the cpuidle_idle_call main entry function into 3 calls to a newly added API: 1. select the idle state 2. enter the idle state 3. reflect the idle state The cpuidle_idle_call calls these three functions to implement the main idle entry function.

If a PI boosted task policy/priority is modified by a setscheduler() call we unconditionally dequeue and requeue the task if it is on the runqueue even if the new priority is lower than the current effective boosted priority. This can result in undesired reordering of the priority bucket list. If the new priority is less or equal than the current effective we just store the new parameters in the task struct and leave the scheduler class and the runqueue untouched. This is handled when the task deboosts itself. Only if the new priority is higher than the effective boosted priority we apply the change immediately. Signed-off-by:

Some hardware may not support standard 64x64 cursors. Add a drm cap to query the cursor size from the kernel. Some examples include radeon CIK parts (128x128 cursors) and armada (32x64 or 64x32). This allows things like device specific ddxes to remove asics specific logic and also allows xf86-video-modesetting to work properly with hw cursors on this hardware. Default to 64 if the driver doesn't specify a size. Signed-off-by:

Add a new argument for ndo_select_queue() callback that passes a fallback handler. This gets invoked through netdev_pick_tx(); fallback handler is currently __netdev_pick_tx() as most drivers invoke this function within their customized implementation in case for skbs that don't need any special handling. This fallback handler can then be replaced on other call-sites with different queue selection methods (e.g. in packet sockets, pktgen etc). This also has the nice side-effect that __netdev_pick_tx() is then only invoked from netdev_pick_tx() and export of that function to modules can be undone. Suggested-by:

Implementation of (a)rwnd calculation might lead to severe performance issues and associations completely stalling. These problems are described and solution is proposed which improves lksctp's robustness in congestion state. 1) Sudden drop of a_rwnd and incomplete window recovery afterwards Data accounted in sctp_assoc_rwnd_decrease takes only payload size (sctp data), but size of sk_buff, which is blamed against receiver buffer, is not accounted in rwnd. Theoretically, this should not be the problem as actual size of buffer is double the amount requested on the socket (SO_RECVBUF). Problem here is that this will have bad scaling for data which is less then sizeof sk_buff. E.g. in 4G (LTE) networks, link interfacing radio side will have a large portion of traffic of this size (less then 100B). An example of sudden drop and incomplete window recovery is given below. Node B exhibits problematic behavior. Node A initiates association and B is configured to advertise rwnd of 10000. A sends messages of size 43B (size of typical sctp message in 4G (LTE) network). On B data is left in buffer by not reading socket in userspace. Lets examine when we will hit pressure state and declare rwnd to be 0 for scenario with above stated parameters (rwnd == 10000, chunk size == 43, each chunk is sent in separate sctp packet) Logic is implemented in sctp_assoc_rwnd_decrease: socket_buffer (see below) is maximum size which can be held in socket buffer (sk_rcvbuf). current_alloced is amount of data currently allocated (rx_count) A simple expression is given for which it will be examined after how many packets for above stated parameters we enter pressure state: We start by condition which has to be met in order to enter pressure state: socket_buffer < currently_alloced; currently_alloced is represented as size of sctp packets received so far and not yet delivered to userspace. x is the number of chunks/packets (since there is no bundling, and each chunk is delivered in separate packet, we can observe each chunk also as sctp packet, and what is important here, having its own sk_buff): socket_buffer < x*each_sctp_packet; each_sctp_packet is sctp chunk size + sizeof(struct sk_buff). socket_buffer is twice the amount of initially requested size of socket buffer, which is in case of sctp, twice the a_rwnd requested: 2*rwnd < x*(payload+sizeof(struc sk_buff)); sizeof(struct sk_buff) is 190 (3.13.0-rc4+). Above is stated that rwnd is 10000 and each payload size is 43 20000 < x(43+190); x > 20000/233; x ~> 84; After ~84 messages, pressure state is entered and 0 rwnd is advertised while received 84*43B ~= 3612B sctp data. This is why external observer notices sudden drop from 6474 to 0, as it will be now shown in example: IP A.34340 > B.12345: sctp (1) [INIT] [init tag: 1875509148] [rwnd: 81920] [OS: 10] [MIS: 65535] [init TSN: 1096057017] IP B.12345 > A.34340: sctp (1) [INIT ACK] [init tag: 3198966556] [rwnd: 10000] [OS: 10] [MIS: 10] [init TSN: 902132839] IP A.34340 > B.12345: sctp (1) [COOKIE ECHO] IP B.12345 > A.34340: sctp (1) [COOKIE ACK] IP A.34340 > B.12345: sctp (1) [DATA] (B)(E) [TSN: 1096057017] [SID: 0] [SSEQ 0] [PPID 0x18] IP B.12345 > A.34340: sctp (1) [SACK] [cum ack 1096057017] [a_rwnd 9957] [#gap acks 0] [#dup tsns 0] IP A.34340 > B.12345: sctp (1) [DATA] (B)(E) [TSN: 1096057018] [SID: 0] [SSEQ 1] [PPID 0x18] IP B.12345 > A.34340: sctp (1) [SACK] [cum ack 1096057018] [a_rwnd 9957] [#gap acks 0] [#dup tsns 0] IP A.34340 > B.12345: sctp (1) [DATA] (B)(E) [TSN: 1096057019] [SID: 0] [SSEQ 2] [PPID 0x18] IP B.12345 > A.34340: sctp (1) [SACK] [cum ack 1096057019] [a_rwnd 9914] [#gap acks 0] [#dup tsns 0] <...> IP A.34340 > B.12345: sctp (1) [DATA] (B)(E) [TSN: 1096057098] [SID: 0] [SSEQ 81] [PPID 0x18] IP B.12345 > A.34340: sctp (1) [SACK] [cum ack 1096057098] [a_rwnd 6517] [#gap acks 0] [#dup tsns 0] IP A.34340 > B.12345: sctp (1) [DATA] (B)(E) [TSN: 1096057099] [SID: 0] [SSEQ 82] [PPID 0x18] IP B.12345 > A.34340: sctp (1) [SACK] [cum ack 1096057099] [a_rwnd 6474] [#gap acks 0] [#dup tsns 0] IP A.34340 > B.12345: sctp (1) [DATA] (B)(E) [TSN: 1096057100] [SID: 0] [SSEQ 83] [PPID 0x18] --> Sudden drop IP B.12345 > A.34340: sctp (1) [SACK] [cum ack 1096057100] [a_rwnd 0] [#gap acks 0] [#dup tsns 0] At this point, rwnd_press stores current rwnd value so it can be later restored in sctp_assoc_rwnd_increase. This however doesn't happen as condition to start slowly increasing rwnd until rwnd_press is returned to rwnd is never met. This condition is not met since rwnd, after it hit 0, must first reach rwnd_press by adding amount which is read from userspace. Let us observe values in above example. Initial a_rwnd is 10000, pressure was hit when rwnd was ~6500 and the amount of actual sctp data currently waiting to be delivered to userspace is ~3500. When userspace starts to read, sctp_assoc_rwnd_increase will be blamed only for sctp data, which is ~3500. Condition is never met, and when userspace reads all data, rwnd stays on 3569.

Situation will be typically observed as one association suddenly having rwnd dropped to size of last packet received and never recovering beyond that point. Different scenarios will lead to it, but all have in common that one of the associations (let it be association from 1)) nearly depleted socket buffer, and the other association blames socket buffer just for the amount enough to start the pressure. This association will enter pressure state, set rwnd_press and announce 0 rwnd. When data is read by userspace, similar situation as in 1) will occur, rwnd will increase just for the size read by userspace but rwnd_press will be high enough so that association doesn't have enough credit to reach rwnd_press and restore to previous state. This case is special case of 1), being worse as there is, in the worst case, only one packet in buffer for which size rwnd will be increased. Consequence is association which has very low maximum rwnd ('minute size', in our case down to 43B - size of packet which caused pressure) and as such unusable. Scenario happened in the field and labs frequently after congestion state (link breaks, different probabilities of packet drop, packet reordering) and with scenario 1) preceding. Here is given a deterministic scenario for reproduction: >From node A establish two associations on the same socket, with rcvbuf_policy being set to share one common buffer (sctp.rcvbuf_policy == 0). On association 1 repeat scenario from 1), that is, bring it down to 0 and restore up. Observe scenario 1). Use small payload size (here we use 43). Once rwnd is 'recovered', bring it down close to 0, as in just one more packet would close it. This has as a consequence that association number 2 is able to receive (at least) one more packet which will bring it in pressure state. E.g. if association 2 had rwnd of 10000, packet received was 43, and we enter at this point into pressure, rwnd_press will have 9957. Once payload is delivered to userspace, rwnd will increase for 43, but conditions to restore rwnd to original state, just as in 1), will never be satisfied. --> Association 1, between A.y and B.12345 IP A.55915 > B.12345: sctp (1) [INIT] [init tag: 836880897] [rwnd: 10000] [OS: 10] [MIS: 65535] [init TSN: 4032536569] IP B.12345 > A.55915: sctp (1) [INIT ACK] [init tag: 2873310749] [rwnd: 81920] [OS: 10] [MIS: 10] [init TSN: 3799315613] IP A.55915 > B.12345: sctp (1) [COOKIE ECHO] IP B.12345 > A.55915: sctp (1) [COOKIE ACK] --> Association 2, between A.z and B.12346 IP A.55915 > B.12346: sctp (1) [INIT] [init tag: 534798321] [rwnd: 10000] [OS: 10] [MIS: 65535] [init TSN: 2099285173] IP B.12346 > A.55915: sctp (1) [INIT ACK] [init tag: 516668823] [rwnd: 81920] [OS: 10] [MIS: 10] [init TSN: 3676403240] IP A.55915 > B.12346: sctp (1) [COOKIE ECHO] IP B.12346 > A.55915: sctp (1) [COOKIE ACK] --> Deplete socket buffer by sending messages of size 43B over association 1 IP B.12345 > A.55915: sctp (1) [DATA] (B)(E) [TSN: 3799315613] [SID: 0] [SSEQ 0] [PPID 0x18] IP A.55915 > B.12345: sctp (1) [SACK] [cum ack 3799315613] [a_rwnd 9957] [#gap acks 0] [#dup tsns 0] <...> IP A.55915 > B.12345: sctp (1) [SACK] [cum ack 3799315696] [a_rwnd 6388] [#gap acks 0] [#dup tsns 0] IP B.12345 > A.55915: sctp (1) [DATA] (B)(E) [TSN: 3799315697] [SID: 0] [SSEQ 84] [PPID 0x18] IP A.55915 > B.12345: sctp (1) [SACK] [cum ack 3799315697] [a_rwnd 6345] [#gap acks 0] [#dup tsns 0] --> Sudden drop on 1 IP B.12345 > A.55915: sctp (1) [DATA] (B)(E) [TSN: 3799315698] [SID: 0] [SSEQ 85] [PPID 0x18] IP A.55915 > B.12345: sctp (1) [SACK] [cum ack 3799315698] [a_rwnd 0] [#gap acks 0] [#dup tsns 0] --> Here userspace read, rwnd 'recovered' to 3698, now deplete again using association 1 so there is place in buffer for only one more packet IP B.12345 > A.55915: sctp (1) [DATA] (B)(E) [TSN: 3799315799] [SID: 0] [SSEQ 186] [PPID 0x18] IP A.55915 > B.12345: sctp (1) [SACK] [cum ack 3799315799] [a_rwnd 86] [#gap acks 0] [#dup tsns 0] IP B.12345 > A.55915: sctp (1) [DATA] (B)(E) [TSN: 3799315800] [SID: 0] [SSEQ 187] [PPID 0x18] IP A.55915 > B.12345: sctp (1) [SACK] [cum ack 3799315800] [a_rwnd 43] [#gap acks 0] [#dup tsns 0] --> Socket buffer is almost depleted, but there is space for one more packet, send them over association 2, size 43B IP B.12346 > A.55915: sctp (1) [DATA] (B)(E) [TSN: 3676403240] [SID: 0] [SSEQ 0] [PPID 0x18] IP A.55915 > B.12346: sctp (1) [SACK] [cum ack 3676403240] [a_rwnd 0] [#gap acks 0] [#dup tsns 0] --> Immediate drop IP A.60995 > B.12346: sctp (1) [SACK] [cum ack 387491510] [a_rwnd 0] [#gap acks 0] [#dup tsns 0] --> Read everything from the socket, both association recover up to maximum rwnd they are capable of reaching, note that association 1 recovered up to 3698, and association 2 recovered only to 43 IP A.55915 > B.12345: sctp (1) [SACK] [cum ack 3799315800] [a_rwnd 1548] [#gap acks 0] [#dup tsns 0] IP A.55915 > B.12345: sctp (1) [SACK] [cum ack 3799315800] [a_rwnd 3053] [#gap acks 0] [#dup tsns 0] IP B.12345 > A.55915: sctp (1) [DATA] (B)(E) [TSN: 3799315801] [SID: 0] [SSEQ 188] [PPID 0x18] IP A.55915 > B.12345: sctp (1) [SACK] [cum ack 3799315801] [a_rwnd 3698] [#gap acks 0] [#dup tsns 0] IP B.12346 > A.55915: sctp (1) [DATA] (B)(E) [TSN: 3676403241] [SID: 0] [SSEQ 1] [PPID 0x18] IP A.55915 > B.12346: sctp (1) [SACK] [cum ack 3676403241] [a_rwnd 43] [#gap acks 0] [#dup tsns 0] A careful reader might wonder why it is necessary to reproduce 1) prior reproduction of 2). It is simply easier to observe when to send packet over association 2 which will push association into the pressure state. Proposed solution: Both problems share the same root cause, and that is improper scaling of socket buffer with rwnd. Solution in which sizeof(sk_buff) is taken into concern while calculating rwnd is not possible due to fact that there is no linear relationship between amount of data blamed in increase/decrease with IP packet in which payload arrived. Even in case such solution would be followed, complexity of the code would increase. Due to nature of current rwnd handling, slow increase (in sctp_assoc_rwnd_increase) of rwnd after pressure state is entered is rationale, but it gives false representation to the sender of current buffer space. Furthermore, it implements additional congestion control mechanism which is defined on implementation, and not on standard basis. Proposed solution simplifies whole algorithm having on mind definition from rfc: o Receiver Window (rwnd): This gives the sender an indication of the space available in the receiver's inbound buffer. Core of the proposed solution is given with these lines: sctp_assoc_rwnd_update: if ((asoc->base.sk->sk_rcvbuf - rx_count) > 0) asoc->rwnd = (asoc->base.sk->sk_rcvbuf - rx_count) >> 1; else asoc->rwnd = 0; We advertise to sender (half of) actual space we have. Half is in the braces depending whether you would like to observe size of socket buffer as SO_RECVBUF or twice the amount, i.e. size is the one visible from userspace, that is, from kernelspace. In this way sender is given with good approximation of our buffer space, regardless of the buffer policy - we always advertise what we have. Proposed solution fixes described problems and removes necessity for rwnd restoration algorithm. Finally, as proposed solution is simplification, some lines of code, along with some bytes in struct sctp_association are saved. Version 2 of the patch addressed comments from Vlad. Name of the function is set to be more descriptive, and two parts of code are changed, in one removing the superfluous call to sctp_assoc_rwnd_update since call would not result in update of rwnd, and the other being reordering of the code in a way that call to sctp_assoc_rwnd_update updates rwnd. Version 3 corrected change introduced in v2 in a way that existing function is not reordered/copied in line, but it is correctly called. Thanks Vlad for suggesting. Signed-off-by:

Archs like ppc64 doesn't do tlb flush in set_pte/pmd functions when using a hash table MMU for various reasons (the flush is handled as part of the PTE modification when necessary). ppc64 thus doesn't implement flush_tlb_range for hash based MMUs. Additionally ppc64 require the tlb flushing to be batched within ptl locks. The reason to do that is to ensure that the hash page table is in sync with linux page table. We track the hpte index in linux pte and if we clear them without flushing hash and drop the ptl lock, we can have another cpu update the pte and can end up with duplicate entry in the hash table, which is fatal. We also want to keep set_pte_at simpler by not requiring them to do hash flush for performance reason. We do that by assuming that set_pte_at() is never *ever* called on a PTE that is already valid. This was the case until the NUMA code went in which broke that assumption. Fix that by introducing a new pair of helpers to set _PAGE_NUMA in a way similar to ptep/pmdp_set_wrprotect(), with a generic implementation using set_pte_at() and a powerpc specific one using the appropriate mechanism needed to keep the hash table in sync.

Tommi noticed a 'funny' lock class name: "%s#5" from a lock acquired in process_one_work(). Maybe #fmt plus #args could be used as the lock_name to give some more information for some fmt string like the above. __builtin_constant_p() check is removed (as there seems no good way to check all the variables in args list). However, by removing the check, it only adds two additional "s for those constants. Some lockdep name examples printed out after the change: lockdep name wq->name "events_long" events_long "%s"("khelper") khelper "xfs-data/%s"mp->m_fsname xfs-data/dm-3 Signed-off-by:

Marcelo Ricardo Leitner reported problems when the forwarding link path has a lower mtu than the incoming one if the inbound interface supports GRO. Given: Host <mtu1500> R1 <mtu1200> R2 Host sends tcp stream which is routed via R1 and R2. R1 performs GRO. In this case, the kernel will fail to send ICMP fragmentation needed messages (or pkt too big for ipv6), as GSO packets currently bypass dstmtu checks in forward path. Instead, Linux tries to send out packets exceeding the mtu. When locking route MTU on Host (i.e., no ipv4 DF bit set), R1 does not fragment the packets when forwarding, and again tries to send out packets exceeding R1-R2 link mtu. This alters the forwarding dstmtu checks to take the individual gso segment lengths into account. For ipv6, we send out pkt too big error for gso if the individual segments are too big. For ipv4, we either send icmp fragmentation needed, or, if the DF bit is not set, perform software segmentation and let the output path create fragments when the packet is leaving the machine. It is not 100% correct as the error message will contain the headers of the GRO skb instead of the original/segmented one, but it seems to work fine in my (limited) tests. Eric Dumazet suggested to simply shrink mss via ->gso_size to avoid sofware segmentation. However it turns out that skb_segment() assumes skb nr_frags is related to mss size so we would BUG there. I don't want to mess with it considering Herbert and Eric disagree on what the correct behavior should be. Hannes Frederic Sowa notes that when we would shrink gso_size skb_segment would then also need to deal with the case where SKB_MAX_FRAGS would be exceeded. This uses sofware segmentation in the forward path when we hit ipv4 non-DF packets and the outgoing link mtu is too small. Its not perfect, but given the lack of bug reports wrt. GRO fwd being broken this is a rare case anyway. Also its not like this could not be improved later once the dust settles. Acked-by:

I started noticing problems with KVM guest destruction on Linux 3.12+, where guest memory wasn't being cleaned up. I bisected it down to the commit introducing the new 'asm goto'-based atomics, and found this quirk was later applied to those. Unfortunately, even with GCC 4.8.2 (which ostensibly fixed the known 'asm goto' bug) I am still getting some kind of miscompilation. If I enable the asm_volatile_goto quirk for my compiler, KVM guests are destroyed correctly and the memory is cleaned up. So make the quirk unconditional for now, until bug is found and fixed.

Immutable biovecs changed the way bio segments are treated in such a way that bio_for_each_segment() cannot now do what we want for discard/write same bios, since bi_size means something completely different for them. Fortunately discard and write same bios never have more than a single biovec, so bio_for_each_segment() is unnecessary and not terribly meaningful for them, but we still have to special case them in a few places.

Witch to using a preallocated flush_rq for blk-mq similar to what's done with the old request path. This allows us to set up the request properly with a tag from the actually allowed range and ->rq_disk as needed by some drivers. To make life easier we also switch to dynamic allocation of ->flush_rq for the old path. This effectively reverts most of "blk-mq: fix for flush deadlock" and "blk-mq: Don't reserve a tag for flush request" Signed-off-by:

Rework I/O completions to work more like the old code path. blk_mq_end_io now stays out of the business of deferring completions to others CPUs and calling blk_mark_rq_complete. The latter is very important to allow completing requests that have timed out and thus are already marked completed, the former allows using the IPI callout even for driver specific completions instead of having to reimplement them.
