Shaohua Li 9a46ad6d6d smp: make smp_call_function_many() use logic similar to smp_call_function_single()
I'm testing swapout workload in a two-socket Xeon machine.  The workload
has 10 threads, each thread sequentially accesses separate memory
region.  TLB flush overhead is very big in the workload.  For each page,
page reclaim need move it from active lru list and then unmap it.  Both
need a TLB flush.  And this is a multthread workload, TLB flush happens
in 10 CPUs.  In X86, TLB flush uses generic smp_call)function.  So this
workload stress smp_call_function_many heavily.

Without patch, perf shows:
+  24.49%  [k] generic_smp_call_function_interrupt
-  21.72%  [k] _raw_spin_lock
   - _raw_spin_lock
      + 79.80% __page_check_address
      + 6.42% generic_smp_call_function_interrupt
      + 3.31% get_swap_page
      + 2.37% free_pcppages_bulk
      + 1.75% handle_pte_fault
      + 1.54% put_super
      + 1.41% grab_super_passive
      + 1.36% __swap_duplicate
      + 0.68% blk_flush_plug_list
      + 0.62% swap_info_get
+   6.55%  [k] flush_tlb_func
+   6.46%  [k] smp_call_function_many
+   5.09%  [k] call_function_interrupt
+   4.75%  [k] default_send_IPI_mask_sequence_phys
+   2.18%  [k] find_next_bit

swapout throughput is around 1300M/s.

With the patch, perf shows:
-  27.23%  [k] _raw_spin_lock
   - _raw_spin_lock
      + 80.53% __page_check_address
      + 8.39% generic_smp_call_function_single_interrupt
      + 2.44% get_swap_page
      + 1.76% free_pcppages_bulk
      + 1.40% handle_pte_fault
      + 1.15% __swap_duplicate
      + 1.05% put_super
      + 0.98% grab_super_passive
      + 0.86% blk_flush_plug_list
      + 0.57% swap_info_get
+   8.25%  [k] default_send_IPI_mask_sequence_phys
+   7.55%  [k] call_function_interrupt
+   7.47%  [k] smp_call_function_many
+   7.25%  [k] flush_tlb_func
+   3.81%  [k] _raw_spin_lock_irqsave
+   3.78%  [k] generic_smp_call_function_single_interrupt

swapout throughput is around 1400M/s.  So there is around a 7%
improvement, and total cpu utilization doesn't change.

Without the patch, cfd_data is shared by all CPUs.
generic_smp_call_function_interrupt does read/write cfd_data several times
which will create a lot of cache ping-pong.  With the patch, the data
becomes per-cpu.  The ping-pong is avoided.  And from the perf data, this
doesn't make call_single_queue lock contend.

Next step is to remove generic_smp_call_function_interrupt() from arch
code.

Darrick J. Wong 1d1d1a7672 mm: only enforce stable page writes if the backing device requires it
Create a helper function to check if a backing device requires stable
page writes and, if so, performs the necessary wait.  Then, make it so
that all points in the memory manager that handle making pages writable
use the helper function.  This should provide stable page write support
to most filesystems, while eliminating unnecessary waiting for devices
that don't require the feature.

Before this patchset, all filesystems would block, regardless of whether
or not it was necessary.  ext3 would wait, but still generate occasional
checksum errors.  The network filesystems were left to do their own
thing, so they'd wait too.

After this patchset, all the disk filesystems except ext3 and btrfs will
wait only if the hardware requires it.  ext3 (if necessary) snapshots
pages instead of blocking, and btrfs provides its own bdi so the mm will
never wait.  Network filesystems haven't been touched, so either they
provide their own stable page guarantees or they don't block at all.
The blocking behavior is back to what it was before 3.0 if you don't
have a disk requiring stable page writes.

Here's the result of using dbench to test latency on ext2:

3.8.0-rc3:
 Operation      Count    AvgLat    MaxLat
 ----------------------------------------
 WriteX        109347     0.028    59.817
 ReadX         347180     0.004     3.391
 Flush          15514    29.828   287.283

Throughput 57.429 MB/sec  4 clients  4 procs  max_latency=287.290 ms

3.8.0-rc3 + patches:
 WriteX        105556     0.029     4.273
 ReadX         335004     0.005     4.112
 Flush          14982    30.540   298.634

Throughput 55.4496 MB/sec  4 clients  4 procs  max_latency=298.650 ms

As you can see, the maximum write latency drops considerably with this
patch enabled.  The other filesystems (ext3/ext4/xfs/btrfs) behave
similarly, but see the cover letter for those results.

Darrick J. Wong 7d311cdab6 bdi: allow block devices to say that they require stable page writes
This patchset ("stable page writes, part 2") makes some key
modifications to the original 'stable page writes' patchset.  First, it
provides creators (devices and filesystems) of a backing_dev_info a flag
that declares whether or not it is necessary to ensure that page
contents cannot change during writeout.  It is no longer assumed that
this is true of all devices (which was never true anyway).  Second, the
flag is used to relaxed the wait_on_page_writeback calls so that wait
only occurs if the device needs it.  Third, it fixes up the remaining
disk-backed filesystems to use this improved conditional-wait logic to
provide stable page writes on those filesystems.

It is hoped that (for people not using checksumming devices, anyway)
this patchset will give back unnecessary performance decreases since the
original stable page write patchset went into 3.0.  Sorry about not
fixing it sooner.

Complaints were registered by several people about the long write
latencies introduced by the original stable page write patchset.
Generally speaking, the kernel ought to allocate as little extra memory
as possible to facilitate writeout, but for people who simply cannot
wait, a second page stability strategy is (re)introduced: snapshotting
page contents.  The waiting behavior is still the default strategy; to
enable page snapshotting, a superblock flag (MS_SNAP_STABLE) must be
set.  This flag is used to bandaid^Henable stable page writeback on
ext3[1], and is not used anywhere else.

Given that there are already a few storage devices and network FSes that
have rolled their own page stability wait/page snapshot code, it would
be nice to move towards consolidating all of these.  It seems possible
that iscsi and raid5 may wish to use the new stable page write support
to enable zero-copy writeout.

Thank you to Jan Kara for helping fix a couple more filesystems.

Per Andrew Morton's request, here are the result of using dbench to measure
latencies on ext2:

3.8.0-rc3:
   Operation      Count    AvgLat    MaxLat
   ----------------------------------------

  Throughput 55.4496 MB/sec  4 clients  4 procs  max_latency=298.650 ms

As you can see, for ext2 the maximum write latency decreases from ~60ms
on a laptop hard disk to ~4ms.  I'm not sure why the flush latencies
increase, though I suspect that being able to dirty pages faster gives
the flusher more work to do.

On ext4, the average write latency decreases as well as all the maximum
latencies:

3.8.0-rc3:
   WriteX         85624     0.152    33.078

  Throughput 44.9941 MB/sec  4 clients  4 procs  max_latency=165.722 ms

XFS seems to exhibit similar latency improvements as ext2:

3.8.0-rc3:
   WriteX        125739     0.028   104.343
   ReadX         399070     0.005     4.115

provide their own wait code, or they don't block at all.  The blocking
behavior is back to what it was before 3.0 if you don't have a disk
requiring stable page writes.

This patchset has been tested on 3.8.0-rc3 on x64 with ext3, ext4, and
xfs.  I've spot-checked 3.8.0-rc4 and seem to be getting the same
results as -rc3.

[1] The alternative fixes to ext3 include fixing the locking order and
page bit handling like we did for ext4 (but then why not just use
ext4?), or setting PG_writeback so early that ext3 becomes extremely
slow.  I tried that, but the number of write()s I could initiate dropped
by nearly an order of magnitude.  That was a bit much even for the
author of the stable page series! :)

This patch:

Creates a per-backing-device flag that tracks whether or not pages must
be held immutable during writeout.  Eventually it will be used to waive
wait_for_page_writeback() if nothing requires stable pages.

Johannes Berg b1ae345d97 lockdep: make lockdep_assert_held() not have a return value
I recently made the mistake of writing:

  foo = lockdep_dereference_protected(..., lockdep_assert_held(...));

which is clearly bogus.  If lockdep is disabled in the config this would
cause a compile failure, if it is enabled then it compiles and causes a
puzzling warning about dereferencing without the correct protection.

Wrap the macro in "do { ...  } while (0)" to also fail compile for this
when lockdep is enabled.

Daniel Santos 9a8ab1c399 bug.h, compiler.h: introduce compiletime_assert & BUILD_BUG_ON_MSG
Introduce compiletime_assert to compiler.h, which moves the details of
how to break a build and emit an error message for a specific compiler
to the headers where these details should be.  Following in the
tradition of the POSIX assert macro, compiletime_assert creates a
build-time error when the supplied condition is *false*.

Next, we add BUILD_BUG_ON_MSG to bug.h which simply wraps
compiletime_assert, inverting the logic, so that it fails when the
condition is *true*, consistent with the language "build bug on." This
macro allows you to specify the error message you want emitted when the
supplied condition is true.

Finally, we remove all other code from bug.h that mucks with these
details (BUILD_BUG & BUILD_BUG_ON), and have them all call
BUILD_BUG_ON_MSG.  This not only reduces source code bloat, but also
prevents the possibility of code being changed for one macro and not for
the other (which was previously the case for BUILD_BUG and
BUILD_BUG_ON).

Since __compiletime_error_fallback is now only used in compiler.h, I'm
considering it a private macro and removing the double negation that's
now extraneous.

Daniel Santos c361d3e543 compiler.h, bug.h: prevent double error messages with BUILD_BUG{,_ON}
Prior to the introduction of __attribute__((error("msg"))) in gcc 4.3,
creating compile-time errors required a little trickery.
BUILD_BUG{,_ON} uses this attribute when available to generate
compile-time errors, but also uses the negative-sized array trick for
older compilers, resulting in two error messages in some cases.  The
reason it's "some" cases is that as of gcc 4.4, the negative-sized array
will not create an error in some situations, like inline functions.

This patch replaces the negative-sized array code with the new
__compiletime_error_fallback() macro which expands to the same thing
unless the the error attribute is available, in which case it expands to
do{}while(0), resulting in exactly one compile-time error on all
versions of gcc.

Note that we are not changing the negative-sized array code for the
unoptimized version of BUILD_BUG_ON, since it has the potential to catch
problems that would be disabled in later versions of gcc were
__compiletime_error_fallback used.  The reason is that that an
unoptimized build can't always remove calls to an error-attributed
function call (like we are using) that should effectively become dead
code if it were optimized.  However, using a negative-sized array with a
similar value will not result in an false-positive (error).  The only
caveat being that it will also fail to catch valid conditions, which we
should be expecting in an unoptimized build anyway.

Daniel Santos a3ccc497cd bug.h: make BUILD_BUG_ON generate compile-time error
Negative sized arrays wont create a compile-time error in some cases
starting with gcc 4.4 (e.g., inlined functions), but gcc 4.3 introduced
the error function attribute that will.

This patch modifies BUILD_BUG_ON to behave like BUILD_BUG already does,
using the error function attribute so that you don't have to build the
entire kernel to discover that you have a problem, and then enjoy trying
to track it down from a link-time error.

Also, we are only including asm/bug.h and then expecting that
linux/compiler.h will eventually be included to define __linktime_error
(used in BUILD_BUG_ON).  This patch includes it directly for clarity and
to avoid the possibility of changes in <arch>/*/include/asm/bug.h being
changed or not including linux/compiler.h for some reason.

__linktime_error() does the same thing as __compiletime_error() and is
only used in bug.h.  Since the macro defines a function attribute that
will cause a failure at compile-time (not link-time), it makes more sense
to keep __compiletime_error(), which is also neatly mated with
__compiletime_warning().

Daniel Santos 3f3f8d2f48 compiler-gcc.h: Add gcc-recommended GCC_VERSION macro
Throughout compiler*.h, many version checks are made.  These can be
simplified by using the macro that gcc's documentation recommends.
However, my primary reason for adding this is that I need bug-check
macros that are enabled at certain gcc versions and it's cleaner to use
this macro than the tradition method:

  #if __GNUC__ > 4 || (__GNUC__ == 4 && __GNUC_MINOR__ => 2)

If you add patch level, it gets this ugly:

  #if __GNUC__ > 4 || (__GNUC__ == 4 && (__GNUC_MINOR__ > 2 || \
      __GNUC_MINOR__ == 2 __GNUC_PATCHLEVEL__ >= 1))

As opposed to:

  #if GCC_VERSION >= 40201

While having separate headers for gcc 3 & 4 eliminates some of this
verbosity, they can still be cleaned up by this.

duplicate version check and should encourage future editors to put new

    all the compatability checks for initial-namespace-only protocols is
    removed.  Thanks to Tom Parkin for helping deal with the last major
    holdout, L2TP.

 5) IPV6 support in netpoll and network namespace support in pktgen,
    from Cong Wang.

 6) Multiple Registration Protocol (MRP) and Multiple VLAN Registration
    Protocol (MVRP) support, from David Ward.

    all cases.

17) Handle unresolved IPSEC states like ARP, with a resolution packet
    queue.  From Steffen Klassert.

18) Remove TCP Appropriate Byte Count support (ABC), from Stephen
