The intervening result, however, is\nsubject to overflows, especially since the fraction is not simplified (for\nHZ \u003d\u003d 300, we multiply by 300 and divide by 1000).\n\nThis is exposed to the user when passing a large timeout to poll(), for\nexample.\n\nThis patch replaces the multiply-divide with a reciprocal multiplication on\n32-bit platforms. When the input is an unsigned long, there is no portable\nway to do this on 64-bit platforms there is no portable way to do this\nsince it requires a 128-bit intermediate result (which gcc does support on\n64-bit platforms but may generate libgcc calls, e.g. on 64-bit s390), but\nsince the output is a 32-bit integer in the cases affected, just simplify\nthe multiply-divide (*3/10 instead of *300/1000).\n\nThe reciprocal multiply used can have off-by-one errors in the upper half\nof the valid output range. This could be avoided at the expense of having\nto deal with a potential 65-bit intermediate result. Since the intent is\nto avoid overflow problems and most of the other time conversions are only\nsemiexact, the off-by-one errors were considered an acceptable tradeoff.\n\nAt Ralf Baechle\u0027s suggestion, this version uses a Perl script to compute\nthe necessary constants. We already have dependencies on Perl for kernel\ncompiles. This does, however, require the Perl module Math::BigInt, which\nis included in the standard Perl distribution starting with version 5.8.0.\nIn order to support older versions of Perl, include a table of canned\nconstants in the script itself, and structure the script so that\nMath::BigInt isn\u0027t required if pulling values from said table.\n\nRunning the script requires that the HZ value is available from the\nMakefile. Thus, this patch also adds the Kconfig variable CONFIG_HZ to the\narchitectures which didn\u0027t already have it (alpha, cris, frv, h8300, m32r,\nm68k, m68knommu, sparc, v850, and xtensa.) It does *not* touch the sh or\nsh64 architectures, since Paul Mundt has dealt with those separately in the\nsh tree.\n\nSigned-off-by: H.

The application\ncan then use this security context to determine the security context for\nprocessing on behalf of the peer who sent the packet.\n\nPatch design and implementation:\n\nThe design and implementation is very similar to the UDP case for INET\nsockets. Basically we build upon the existing Unix domain socket API for\nretrieving user credentials. Linux offers the API for obtaining user\ncredentials via ancillary messages (i.e., out of band/control messages\nthat are bundled together with a normal message). To retrieve the security\ncontext, the application first indicates to the kernel such desire by\nsetting the SO_PASSSEC option via getsockopt.

Current\nimplementation supports only shmfs/tmpfs and other filesystems return\n-ENOSYS.\n\n\"Some app allocates large tmpfs files, then when some task quits and some\nclient disconnect, some memory can be released. However the only way to\nrelease tmpfs-swap is to MADV_REMOVE\". - Andrea Arcangeli\n\nDatabases want to use this feature to drop a section of their bufferpool\n(shared memory segments) - without writing back to disk/swap space.\n\nThis feature is also useful for supporting hot-plug memory on UML.\n\nConcerns raised by Andrew Morton:\n\n- \"We have no plan for holepunching! If we _do_ have such a plan (or\n might in the future) then what would the API look like? I think\n sys_holepunch(fd, start, len), so we should start out with that.\"\n\n- Using madvise is very weird, because people will ask \"why do I need to\n mmap my file before I can stick a hole in it?\"\n\n- None of the other madvise operations call into the filesystem in this\n manner. A broad question is: is this capability an MM operation or a\n filesytem operation? truncate, for example, is a filesystem operation\n which sometimes has MM side-effects. madvise is an mm operation and with\n this patch, it gains FS side-effects, only they\u0027re really, really\n significant ones.\"\n\nComments:\n\n- Andrea suggested the fs operation too but then it\u0027s more efficient to\n have it as a mm operation with fs side effects, because they don\u0027t\n immediatly know fd and physical offset of the range. It\u0027s possible to\n fixup in userland and to use the fs operation but it\u0027s more expensive,\n the vmas are already in the kernel and we can use them.\n\nShort term plan \u0026 Future Direction:\n\n- We seem to need this interface only for shmfs/tmpfs files in the short\n term. We have to add hooks into the filesystem for correctness and\n completeness. This is what this patch does.\n\n- In the future, plan is to support both fs and mmap apis also. This\n also involves (other) filesystem specific functions to be implemented.\n\n- Current patch doesn\u0027t support VM_NONLINEAR - which can be addressed in\n the future.\n\nSigned-off-by: Badari Pulavarty \u003cpbadari@us.ibm.com\u003e\nCc: Hugh Dickins \u003chugh@veritas.com\u003e\nCc: Andrea Arcangeli \u003candrea@suse.de\u003e\nCc: Michael Kerrisk \u003cmtk-manpages@gmx.net\u003e\nCc: Ulrich Drepper \u003cdrepper@redhat.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "3821af2fe13700cab6fd67367128fa180e43f8b8", "tree": "a70f63c24bd7d2ac8b25e3e4ee0ef6a50847aa67", "parents": [ "c865e5d99e25a171e8262fc0f7ba608568633c64" ], "author": { "name": "Stephen Hemminger", "email": "shemminger@osdl.org", "time": "Wed Dec 21 19:30:53 2005 -0800" }, "committer": { "name": "David S.

This waiter wakes up and after a few instructions it\nattempts to acquire the cv internal lock, but that lock is still held by\nthe thread calling pthread_cond_signal. So it goes to sleep and eventually\nthe signalling thread is scheduled in, unlocks the internal lock and wakes\nthe waiter again.\n\nNow, before 2003-09-21 NPTL was using FUTEX_REQUEUE in pthread_cond_signal\nto avoid this performance issue, but it was removed when locks were\nredesigned to the 3 state scheme (unlocked, locked uncontended, locked\ncontended).\n\nFollowing scenario shows why simply using FUTEX_REQUEUE in\npthread_cond_signal together with using lll_mutex_unlock_force in place of\nlll_mutex_unlock is not enough and probably why it has been disabled at\nthat time:\n\nThe number is value in cv-\u003e__data.__lock.\n thr1 thr2 thr3\n0 pthread_cond_wait\n1 lll_mutex_lock (cv-\u003e__data.__lock)\n0 lll_mutex_unlock (cv-\u003e__data.__lock)\n0 lll_futex_wait (\u0026cv-\u003e__data.__futex, futexval)\n0 pthread_cond_signal\n1 lll_mutex_lock (cv-\u003e__data.__lock)\n1 pthread_cond_signal\n2 lll_mutex_lock (cv-\u003e__data.__lock)\n2 lll_futex_wait (\u0026cv-\u003e__data.__lock, 2)\n2 lll_futex_requeue (\u0026cv-\u003e__data.__futex, 0, 1, \u0026cv-\u003e__data.__lock)\n # FUTEX_REQUEUE, not FUTEX_CMP_REQUEUE\n2 lll_mutex_unlock_force (cv-\u003e__data.__lock)\n0 cv-\u003e__data.__lock \u003d 0\n0 lll_futex_wake (\u0026cv-\u003e__data.__lock, 1)\n1 lll_mutex_lock (cv-\u003e__data.__lock)\n0 lll_mutex_unlock (cv-\u003e__data.__lock)\n # Here, lll_mutex_unlock doesn\u0027t know there are threads waiting\n # on the internal cv\u0027s lock\n\nNow, I believe it is possible to use FUTEX_REQUEUE in pthread_cond_signal,\nbut it will cost us not one, but 2 extra syscalls and, what\u0027s worse, one of\nthese extra syscalls will be done for every single waiting loop in\npthread_cond_*wait.\n\nWe would need to use lll_mutex_unlock_force in pthread_cond_signal after\nrequeue and lll_mutex_cond_lock in pthread_cond_*wait after lll_futex_wait.\n\nAnother alternative is to do the unlocking pthread_cond_signal needs to do\n(the lock can\u0027t be unlocked before lll_futex_wake, as that is racy) in the\nkernel.\n\nI have implemented both variants, futex-requeue-glibc.patch is the first\none and futex-wake_op{,-glibc}.patch is the unlocking inside of the kernel.\n The kernel interface allows userland to specify how exactly an unlocking\noperation should look like (some atomic arithmetic operation with optional\nconstant argument and comparison of the previous futex value with another\nconstant).\n\nIt has been implemented just for ppc*, x86_64 and i?86, for other\narchitectures I\u0027m including just a stub header which can be used as a\nstarting point by maintainers to write support for their arches and ATM\nwill just return -ENOSYS for FUTEX_WAKE_OP. The requeue patch has been\n(lightly) tested just on x86_64, the wake_op patch on ppc64 kernel running\n32-bit and 64-bit NPTL and x86_64 kernel running 32-bit and 64-bit NPTL.\n\nWith the following benchmark on UP x86-64 I get:\n\nfor i in nptl-orig nptl-requeue nptl-wake_op; do echo time elf/ld.so --library-path .:$i /tmp/bench; \\\nfor j in 1 2; do echo ( time elf/ld.so --library-path .:$i /tmp/bench ) 2\u003e\u00261; done; done\ntime elf/ld.so --library-path .:nptl-orig /tmp/bench\nreal 0m0.655s user 0m0.253s sys 0m0.403s\nreal 0m0.657s user 0m0.269s sys 0m0.388s\ntime elf/ld.so --library-path .:nptl-requeue /tmp/bench\nreal 0m0.496s user 0m0.225s sys 0m0.271s\nreal 0m0.531s user 0m0.242s sys 0m0.288s\ntime elf/ld.so --library-path .:nptl-wake_op /tmp/bench\nreal 0m0.380s user 0m0.176s sys 0m0.204s\nreal 0m0.382s user 0m0.175s sys 0m0.207s\n\nThe benchmark is at:\nhttp://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2005-03/txt00001.txt\nOlder futex-requeue-glibc.patch version is at:\nhttp://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2005-03/txt00002.txt\nOlder futex-wake_op-glibc.patch version is at:\nhttp://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2005-03/txt00003.txt\nWill post a new version (just x86-64 fixes so that the patch\napplies against pthread_cond_signal.S) to libc-hacker ml soon.\n\nAttached is the kernel FUTEX_WAKE_OP patch as well as a simple-minded\ntestcase that will not test the atomicity of the operation, but at least\ncheck if the threads that should have been woken up are woken up and\nwhether the arithmetic operation in the kernel gave the expected results.\n\nAcked-by: Ingo Molnar \u003cmingo@redhat.com\u003e\nCc: Ulrich Drepper \u003cdrepper@redhat.com\u003e\nCc: Jamie Lokier \u003cjamie@shareable.org\u003e\nCc: Rusty Russell \u003crusty@rustcorp.com.au\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Yoichi Yuasa \u003cyuasa@hh.iij4u.or.jp\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "fa5b08d5f818063d18433194f20359ef2ae50254", "tree": "f2b2bc88347a618f0c4b535d57d2a5271a5eb98e", "parents": [ "0e5c9f39f64d8a55c5db37a5ea43e37d3422fd92" ], "author": { "name": "Kyle Moffett", "email": "mrmacman_g4@mac.com", "time": "Sat Sep 03 15:55:03 2005 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@evo.osdl.org", "time": "Mon Sep 05 00:05:48 2005 -0700" }, "message": "[PATCH] sab: consolidate kmem_bufctl_t\n\nThis is used only in slab.c and each architecture gets to define whcih\nunderlying type is to be used.\n\nSeems a bit silly - move it to slab.c and use the same type for all\narchitectures: unsigned int.\n\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "fd4fd5aac1282825195c6816ed40a2a6d42db5bf", "tree": "5908cf4c88a7c9d69ea7bdc1c354d51b6ff47f86", "parents": [ "28ae55c98e4d16eac9a05a8a259d7763ef3aeb18" ], "author": { "name": "Stephen Rothwell", "email": "sfr@canb.auug.org.au", "time": "Sat Sep 03 15:54:30 2005 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@evo.osdl.org", "time": "Mon Sep 05 00:05:39 2005 -0700" }, "message": "[PATCH] mm: consolidate get_order\n\nSomeone mentioned that almost all the architectures used basically the same\nimplementation of get_order.
