Shailabh Nagar [Fri, 14 Jul 2006 07:24:47 +0000 (00:24 -0700)]
[PATCH] Remove down_write() from taskstats code invoked on the exit() path

In send_cpu_listeners(), which is called on the exit path, a down_write()
was protecting operations like skb_clone() and genlmsg_unicast() that do
GFP_KERNEL allocations.  If the oom-killer decides to kill tasks to satisfy
the allocations,the exit of those tasks could block on the same semphore.

The down_write() was only needed to allow removal of invalid listeners from
the listener list.  The patch converts the down_write to a down_read and
defers the removal to a separate critical region.  This ensures that even
if the oom-killer is called, no other task's exit is blocked as it can
still acquire another down_read.

Thanks to Andrew Morton & Herbert Xu for pointing out the oom related
pitfalls, and to Chandra Seetharaman for suggesting this fix instead of
using something more complex like RCU.

[PATCH] per-task delay accounting taskstats interface: control exit data through cpumasks

On systems with a large number of cpus, with even a modest rate of tasks
exiting per cpu, the volume of taskstats data sent on thread exit can
overflow a userspace listener's buffers.

One approach to avoiding overflow is to allow listeners to get data for a
limited and specific set of cpus.  By scaling the number of listeners
and/or the cpus they monitor, userspace can handle the statistical data
overload more gracefully.

In this patch, each listener registers to listen to a specific set of cpus
by specifying a cpumask.  The interest is recorded per-cpu.  When a task
exits on a cpu, its taskstats data is unicast to each listener interested
in that cpu.

Thanks to Andrew Morton for pointing out the various scalability and
general concerns of previous attempts and for suggesting this design.

Don't send taskstats (per-pid or per-tgid) on thread exit when no one is

Currently the taskstats interface allocates a structure, fills it in and
calls netlink to send out per-pid and per-tgid stats regardless of whether
a userspace listener for the data exists (netlink layer would check for
that and avoid the multicast).

As a result of this patch, the check for the no-listener case is performed
early, avoiding the redundant allocation and filling up of the taskstats

[PATCH] delay accounting taskstats interface send tgid once

Send per-tgid data only once during exit of a thread group instead of once
with each member thread exit.

Currently, when a thread exits, besides its per-tid data, the per-tgid data
of its thread group is also sent out, if its thread group is non-empty.
The per-tgid data sent consists of the sum of per-tid stats for all
*remaining* threads of the thread group.

This patch modifies this sending in two ways:

- the per-tgid data is sent only when the last thread of a thread group
  exits.  This cuts down heavily on the overhead of sending/receiving
  per-tgid data, especially when other exploiters of the taskstats
  interface aren't interested in per-tgid stats

- the semantics of the per-tgid data sent are changed.  Instead of being
  the sum of per-tid data for remaining threads, the value now sent is the
  true total accumalated statistics for all threads that are/were part of
  the thread group.

The patch also addresses a minor issue where failure of one accounting
subsystem to fill in the taskstats structure was causing the send of
taskstats to not be sent at all.

The patch has been tested for stability and run cerberus for over 4 hours
on an SMP.

[PATCH] Convert idr's internal locking to _irqsave variant

Currently, the code in lib/idr.c uses a bare spin_lock(&idp->lock) to do
internal locking.  This is a nasty trap for code that might call idr
functions from different contexts; for example, it seems perfectly
reasonable to call idr_get_new() from process context and idr_remove() from
interrupt context -- but with the current locking this would lead to a
potential deadlock.

The simplest fix for this is to just convert the idr locking to use
spin_lock_irqsave().

In particular, this fixes a very complicated locking issue detected by
lockdep, involving the ib_ipoib driver's priv->lock and dev->_xmit_lock,
which get involved with the ib_sa module's query_idr.lock.

[PATCH] null-terminate over-long /proc/kallsyms symbols

Got a customer bug report (https://bugzilla.novell.com/190296) about kernel
symbols longer than 127 characters which end up in a string buffer that is
not NULL terminated, leading to garbage in /proc/kallsyms.  Using strlcpy
prevents this from happening, even though such symbols still won't come out
right.

A better fix would be to not use a fixed-size buffer, but it's probably not
worth the trouble.  (Modversion'ed symbols even have a length limit of 60.)
