include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

generic-ipi: remove kmalloc() Remove the use of kmalloc() from the smp_call_function_*() calls. Steven's generic-ipi patch (d7240b98: generic-ipi: use per cpu data for single cpu ipi calls) started the discussion on the use of kmalloc() in this code and fixed the smp_call_function_single(.wait=0) fallback case. In this patch we complete this by also providing means for the _many() call, which fully removes the need for kmalloc() in this code. The problem with the _many() call is that other cpus might still be observing our entry when we're done with it. It solved this by dynamically allocating data elements and RCU-freeing it. We solve it by using a single per-cpu entry which provides static storage and solves one half of the problem (avoiding referencing freed data). The other half, ensuring the queue iteration it still possible, is done by placing re-used entries at the head of the list. This means that if someone was still iterating that entry when it got moved, he will now re-visit the entries on the list he had already seen, but avoids skipping over entries like would have happened had we placed the new entry at the end. Furthermore, visiting entries twice is not a problem, since we remove our cpu from the entry's cpumask once its called. Many thanks to Oleg for his suggestions and him poking holes in my earlier attempts.

generic-ipi: Fix kexec boot crash by initializing call_single_queue before enabling interrupts There is a problem that kdump(2nd kernel) sometimes hangs up due to a pending IPI from 1st kernel. Kernel panic occurs because IPI comes before call_single_queue is initialized. To fix the crash, rename init_call_single_data() to call_function_init() and call it in start_kernel() so that call_single_queue can be initialized before enabling interrupts. The details of the crash are: (1) 2nd kernel boots up (2) A pending IPI from 1st kernel comes when irqs are first enabled in start_kernel(). (3) Kernel tries to handle the interrupt, but call_single_queue is not initialized yet at this point. As a result, in the generic_smp_call_function_single_interrupt(), NULL pointer dereference occurs when list_replace_init() tries to access &q->list.next. Therefore this patch changes the name of init_call_single_data() to call_function_init() and calls it before local_irq_enable() in start_kernel().

generic-ipi: remove kmalloc() Remove the use of kmalloc() from the smp_call_function_*() calls. Steven's generic-ipi patch (d7240b98: generic-ipi: use per cpu data for single cpu ipi calls) started the discussion on the use of kmalloc() in this code and fixed the smp_call_function_single(.wait=0) fallback case. In this patch we complete this by also providing means for the _many() call, which fully removes the need for kmalloc() in this code. The problem with the _many() call is that other cpus might still be observing our entry when we're done with it. It solved this by dynamically allocating data elements and RCU-freeing it. We solve it by using a single per-cpu entry which provides static storage and solves one half of the problem (avoiding referencing freed data). The other half, ensuring the queue iteration it still possible, is done by placing re-used entries at the head of the list. This means that if someone was still iterating that entry when it got moved, he will now re-visit the entries on the list he had already seen, but avoids skipping over entries like would have happened had we placed the new entry at the end. Furthermore, visiting entries twice is not a problem, since we remove our cpu from the entry's cpumask once its called.

Secondly, clarify architecture specific IPI locking rules. Generic code has no tools to impose any sane ordering on IPIs if they go outside normal cache coherency, ergo the arch code must make them appear to obey cache coherency as a "memory operation" to initiate an IPI, and a "memory operation" to receive one. This way at least they can be reasoned about in generic code, and smp_mb used to provide ordering. The combination of these two changes means that explict barriers can be taken out of queue handling for the single case -- shared data is explicitly locked, and ipi ordering must conform to that, so no barriers needed. An extra barrier is needed in the many handler, so as to ensure we load the list element after the IPI is received. Does any architecture actually *need* these barriers? For the initiator I could see it, but for the handler I would be surprised. So the other thing we could do for simplicity is just to require that, rather than just matching with cache coherency, we just require a full barrier before generating an IPI, and after receiving an IPI. In which case, the smp_mb()s can go away. But just for now, we'll be on the safe side and use the barriers (they're in the slow case anyway).

generic IPI: simplify barriers and locking Simplify the barriers in generic remote function call interrupt code. Firstly, just unconditionally take the lock and check the list in the generic_call_function_single_interrupt IPI handler. As we've just taken an IPI here, the chances are fairly high that there will be work on the list for us, so do the locking unconditionally. This removes the tricky lockless list_empty check and dubious barriers. The change looks bigger than it is because it is just removing an outer loop. Secondly, clarify architecture specific IPI locking rules. Generic code has no tools to impose any sane ordering on IPIs if they go outside normal cache coherency, ergo the arch code must make them appear to obey cache coherency as a "memory operation" to initiate an IPI, and a "memory operation" to receive one. This way at least they can be reasoned about in generic code, and smp_mb used to provide ordering. The combination of these two changes means that explict barriers can be taken out of queue handling for the single case -- shared data is explicitly locked, and ipi ordering must conform to that, so no barriers needed. An extra barrier is needed in the many handler, so as to ensure we load the list element after the IPI is received. Does any architecture actually *need* these barriers? For the initiator I could see it, but for the handler I would be surprised.

generic-ipi: remove kmalloc() Remove the use of kmalloc() from the smp_call_function_*() calls. Steven's generic-ipi patch (d7240b98: generic-ipi: use per cpu data for single cpu ipi calls) started the discussion on the use of kmalloc() in this code and fixed the smp_call_function_single(.wait=0) fallback case. In this patch we complete this by also providing means for the _many() call, which fully removes the need for kmalloc() in this code. The problem with the _many() call is that other cpus might still be observing our entry when we're done with it. It solved this by dynamically allocating data elements and RCU-freeing it. We solve it by using a single per-cpu entry which provides static storage and solves one half of the problem (avoiding referencing freed data). The other half, ensuring the queue iteration it still possible, is done by placing re-used entries at the head of the list. This means that if someone was still iterating that entry when it got moved, he will now re-visit the entries on the list he had already seen, but avoids skipping over entries like would have happened had we placed the new entry at the end. Furthermore, visiting entries twice is not a problem, since we remove our cpu from the entry's cpumask once its called. Many thanks to Oleg for his suggestions and him poking holes in my earlier attempts.

generic-ipi: use per cpu data for single cpu ipi calls The smp_call_function can be passed a wait parameter telling it to wait for all the functions running on other CPUs to complete before returning, or to return without waiting. Unfortunately, this is currently just a suggestion and not manditory. That is, the smp_call_function can decide not to return and wait instead. The reason for this is because it uses kmalloc to allocate storage to send to the called CPU and that CPU will free it when it is done. But if we fail to allocate the storage, the stack is used instead. This means we must wait for the called CPU to finish before continuing. Unfortunatly, some callers do no abide by this hint and act as if the non-wait option is mandatory. The MTRR code for instance will deadlock if the smp_call_function is set to wait. This is because the smp_call_function will wait for the other CPUs to finish their called functions, but those functions are waiting on the caller to continue. This patch changes the generic smp_call_function code to use per cpu variables if the allocation of the data fails for a single CPU call. The smp_call_function_many will fall back to the smp_call_function_single if it fails its alloc. The smp_call_function_single is modified to not force the wait state. Since we now are using a single data per cpu we must synchronize the callers to prevent a second caller modifying the data before the first called IPI functions complete. To do so, I added a flag to the call_single_data called CSD_FLAG_LOCK. When the single CPU is called (which can be called when a many call fails an alloc), we set the LOCK bit on this per cpu data. When the caller finishes it clears the LOCK bit. The caller must wait till the LOCK bit is cleared before setting it. When it is cleared, there is no IPI function using it.

Then it loops forever when it tries to grab the lock of the call_single_data, since it is already locked and enqueued on cpu 0. My theory how this could have happened: for some reason the scheduler decided to call __smp_call_function_single() on it's own cpu, and sends an IPI to itself. The interrupt stays pending since IRQs are disabled. If then the hypervisor schedules the cpu away it might happen that upon rescheduling both the IPI and the timer IRQ are pending. If then interrupts are enabled again it depends which one gets scheduled first. If the timer interrupt gets delivered first we end up with the local deadlock as seen in the calltrace above. Let's make __smp_call_function_single() check if the target cpu is the current cpu and execute the function immediately just like smp_call_function_single does. That should prevent at least the scenario described here. It might also be that the scheduler is not supposed to call __smp_call_function_single with the remote cpu being the current cpu, but that is a different issue.

call_function_many: add missing ordering Paul McKenney's review pointed out two problems with the barriers in the 2.6.38 update to the smp call function many code. First, a barrier that would force the func and info members of data to be visible before their consumption in the interrupt handler was missing. This can be solved by adding a smp_wmb between setting the func and info members and setting setting the cpumask; this will pair with the existing and required smp_rmb ordering the cpumask read before the read of refs. This placement avoids the need a second smp_rmb in the interrupt handler which would be executed on each of the N cpus executing the call request. (I was thinking this barrier was present but was not). Second, the previous write to refs (establishing the zero that we the interrupt handler was testing from all cpus) was performed by a third party cpu. This would invoke transitivity which, as a recient or concurrent addition to memory-barriers.txt now explicitly states, would require a full smp_mb(). However, we know the cpumask will only be set by one cpu (the data owner) and any preivous iteration of the mask would have cleared by the reading cpu. By redundantly writing refs to 0 on the owning cpu before the smp_wmb, the write to refs will follow the same path as the writes that set the cpumask, which in turn allows us to keep the barrier in the interrupt handler a smp_rmb instead of promoting it to a smp_mb (which will be be executed by N cpus for each of the possible M elements on the list). I moved and expanded the comment about our (ab)use of the rcu list primitives for the concurrent walk earlier into this function. I considered moving the first two paragraphs to the queue list head and lock, but felt it would have been too disconected from the code.

smp: introduce a generic on_each_cpu_mask() function We have lots of infrastructure in place to partition multi-core systems such that we have a group of CPUs that are dedicated to specific task: cgroups, scheduler and interrupt affinity, and cpuisol= boot parameter. Still, kernel code will at times interrupt all CPUs in the system via IPIs for various needs. These IPIs are useful and cannot be avoided altogether, but in certain cases it is possible to interrupt only specific CPUs that have useful work to do and not the entire system. This patch set, inspired by discussions with Peter Zijlstra and Frederic Weisbecker when testing the nohz task patch set, is a first stab at trying to explore doing this by locating the places where such global IPI calls are being made and turning the global IPI into an IPI for a specific group of CPUs. The purpose of the patch set is to get feedback if this is the right way to go for dealing with this issue and indeed, if the issue is even worth dealing with at all. Based on the feedback from this patch set I plan to offer further patches that address similar issue in other code paths. This patch creates an on_each_cpu_mask() and on_each_cpu_cond() infrastructure API (the former derived from existing arch specific versions in Tile and Arm) and uses them to turn several global IPI invocation to per CPU group invocations. Core kernel: on_each_cpu_mask() calls a function on processors specified by cpumask, which may or may not include the local processor. You must not call this function with disabled interrupts or from a hardware interrupt handler or from a bottom half handler. arch/arm: Note that the generic version is a little different then the Arm one: 1. It has the mask as first parameter 2. It calls the function on the calling CPU with interrupts disabled, but this should be OK since the function is called on the other CPUs with interrupts disabled anyway. arch/tile: The API is the same as the tile private one, but the generic version also calls the function on the with interrupts disabled in UP case This is OK since the function is called on the other CPUs with interrupts disabled.

smp: add func to IPI cpus based on parameter func Add the on_each_cpu_cond() function that wraps on_each_cpu_mask() and calculates the cpumask of cpus to IPI by calling a function supplied as a parameter in order to determine whether to IPI each specific cpu. The function works around allocation failure of cpumask variable in CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y by itereating over cpus sending an IPI a time via smp_call_function_single(). The function is useful since it allows to seperate the specific code that decided in each case whether to IPI a specific cpu for a specific request from the common boilerplate code of handling creating the mask, handling failures etc. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: s/gfpflags/gfp_flags/] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: avoid double-evaluation of `info' (per Michal), parenthesise evaluation of `cond_func'] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: s/CPU/CPUs, use all 80 cols in comment] Signed-off-by: Gilad Ben-Yossef <gilad@benyossef.com> Cc: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com> Cc: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux-foundation.org> Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Russell King <linux@arm.linux.org.uk> Cc: Pekka Enberg <penberg@kernel.org> Cc: Matt Mackall <mpm@selenic.com> Cc: Sasha Levin <levinsasha928@gmail.com> Cc: Rik van Riel <riel@redhat.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org> Cc: Alexander Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com> Acked-by: Michal Nazarewicz <mina86@mina86.org> Cc: Kosaki Motohiro <kosaki.motohiro@gmail.com> Cc: Milton Miller <miltonm@bga.com> Reviewed-by: "Srivatsa S.
