Consider, for instance, softirq_timer and softirq_sched. A\ntimer goes off in an ISR which schedules softirq_thread to run at RT50.\nThen the timer handler determines that it\u0027s time to smp-rebalance the\nsystem so it schedules softirq_sched to run. So we are in a situation\nwhere we have two RT50 tasks queued, and the system will go into\nrt-overload condition to request other CPUs for help.\n\nThis causes two problems in the current code:\n\n1) If a high-priority bound task and a low-priority unbounded task queue\n up behind the running task, we will fail to ever relocate the unbounded\n task because we terminate the search on the first unmovable task.\n\n2) We spend precious futile cycles in the fast-path trying to pull\n overloaded tasks over. It is therefore optimial to strive to avoid the\n overhead all together if we can cheaply detect the condition before\n overload even occurs.\n\nThis patch tries to achieve this optimization by utilizing the hamming\nweight of the task-\u003ecpus_allowed mask. A weight of 1 indicates that\nthe task cannot be migrated. We will then utilize this information to\nskip non-migratable tasks and to eliminate uncessary rebalance attempts.\n\nWe introduce a per-rq variable to count the number of migratable tasks\nthat are currently running. We only go into overload if we have more\nthan one rt task, AND at least one of them is migratable.\n\nIn addition, we introduce a per-task variable to cache the cpus_allowed\nweight, since the hamming calculation is probably relatively expensive.\nWe only update the cached value when the mask is updated which should be\nrelatively infrequent, especially compared to scheduling frequency\nin the fast path.\n\nSigned-off-by: Gregory Haskins \u003cghaskins@novell.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Steven Rostedt \u003csrostedt@redhat.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Ingo Molnar \u003cmingo@elte.hu\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "82a1fcb90287052aabfa235e7ffc693ea003fe69", "tree": "826b464a248bebe259fe787f7b8d17d5626cf2c5", "parents": [ "d0d23b5432fe61229dd3641c5e94d4130bc4e61b" ], "author": { "name": "Ingo Molnar", "email": "mingo@elte.hu", "time": "Fri Jan 25 21:08:02 2008 +0100" }, "committer": { "name": "Ingo Molnar", "email": "mingo@elte.hu", "time": "Fri Jan 25 21:08:02 2008 +0100" }, "message": "softlockup: automatically detect hung TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE tasks\n\nthis patch extends the soft-lockup detector to automatically\ndetect hung TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE tasks.

This is\nrequired by various security standards such as DCID 6/3 and PCI to provide\nnon-repudiation of administrator\u0027s actions and to allow a review of past\nactions if the administrator seems to overstep their duties or if the system\nbecomes misconfigured for unknown reasons. These requirements do not make it\nnecessary to audit TTY output as well.\n\nCompared to an user-space keylogger, this approach records TTY input using the\naudit subsystem, correlated with other audit events, and it is completely\ntransparent to the user-space application (e.g. the console ioctls still\nwork).\n\nTTY input auditing works on a higher level than auditing all system calls\nwithin the session, which would produce an overwhelming amount of mostly\nuseless audit events.\n\nAdd an \"audit_tty\" attribute, inherited across fork (). Data read from TTYs\nby process with the attribute is sent to the audit subsystem by the kernel.\nThe audit netlink interface is extended to allow modifying the audit_tty\nattribute, and to allow sending explanatory audit events from user-space (for\nexample, a shell might send an event containing the final command, after the\ninteractive command-line editing and history expansion is performed, which\nmight be difficult to decipher from the TTY input alone).\n\nBecause the \"audit_tty\" attribute is inherited across fork (), it would be set\ne.g. for sshd restarted within an audited session. To prevent this, the\naudit_tty attribute is cleared when a process with no open TTY file\ndescriptors (e.g. after daemon startup) opens a TTY.\n\nSee https://www.redhat.com/archives/linux-audit/2007-June/msg00000.html for a\nmore detailed rationale document for an older version of this patch.\n\n[akpm@linux-foundation.org: build fix]\nSigned-off-by: Miloslav Trmac \u003cmitr@redhat.com\u003e\nCc: Al Viro \u003cviro@zeniv.linux.org.uk\u003e\nCc: Alan Cox \u003calan@lxorguk.ukuu.org.uk\u003e\nCc: Paul Fulghum \u003cpaulkf@microgate.com\u003e\nCc: Casey Schaufler \u003ccasey@schaufler-ca.com\u003e\nCc: Steve Grubb \u003csgrubb@redhat.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@linux-foundation.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@linux-foundation.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "924b42d5a2dbe508407a0a6290d3751f826bccdd", "tree": "c13a647ae93bcf033bddb713c1e117e84698c679", "parents": [ "7c3f1a573237b90ef331267260358a0ec4ac9079" ], "author": { "name": "Tomas Janousek", "email": "tjanouse@redhat.com", "time": "Sun Jul 15 23:39:42 2007 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@woody.linux-foundation.org", "time": "Mon Jul 16 09:05:41 2007 -0700" }, "message": "Use boot based time for process start time and boot time in /proc\n\nCommit 411187fb05cd11676b0979d9fbf3291db69dbce2 caused boot time to move and\nprocess start times to become invalid after suspend.

If you want to reliably fetch signals on\nthe signalfd file, you need to block them with sigprocmask(SIG_BLOCK). This\nseems to be working fine on my Dual Opteron machine. I made a quick test\nprogram for it:\n\nhttp://www.xmailserver.org/signafd-test.c\n\nThe signalfd() system call implements signal delivery into a file descriptor\nreceiver. The signalfd file descriptor if created with the following API:\n\nint signalfd(int ufd, const sigset_t *mask, size_t masksize);\n\nThe \"ufd\" parameter allows to change an existing signalfd sigmask, w/out going\nto close/create cycle (Linus idea). Use \"ufd\" \u003d\u003d -1 if you want a brand new\nsignalfd file.\n\nThe \"mask\" allows to specify the signal mask of signals that we are interested\nin. The \"masksize\" parameter is the size of \"mask\".\n\nThe signalfd fd supports the poll(2) and read(2) system calls. The poll(2)\nwill return POLLIN when signals are available to be dequeued. As a direct\nconsequence of supporting the Linux poll subsystem, the signalfd fd can use\nused together with epoll(2) too.\n\nThe read(2) system call will return a \"struct signalfd_siginfo\" structure in\nthe userspace supplied buffer. The return value is the number of bytes copied\nin the supplied buffer, or -1 in case of error. The read(2) call can also\nreturn 0, in case the sighand structure to which the signalfd was attached,\nhas been orphaned. The O_NONBLOCK flag is also supported, and read(2) will\nreturn -EAGAIN in case no signal is available.\n\nIf the size of the buffer passed to read(2) is lower than sizeof(struct\nsignalfd_siginfo), -EINVAL is returned. A read from the signalfd can also\nreturn -ERESTARTSYS in case a signal hits the process. The format of the\nstruct signalfd_siginfo is, and the valid fields depends of the (-\u003ecode \u0026\n__SI_MASK) value, in the same way a struct siginfo would:\n\nstruct signalfd_siginfo {\n\t__u32 signo;\t/* si_signo */\n\t__s32 err;\t/* si_errno */\n\t__s32 code;\t/* si_code */\n\t__u32 pid;\t/* si_pid */\n\t__u32 uid;\t/* si_uid */\n\t__s32 fd;\t/* si_fd */\n\t__u32 tid;\t/* si_fd */\n\t__u32 band;\t/* si_band */\n\t__u32 overrun;\t/* si_overrun */\n\t__u32 trapno;\t/* si_trapno */\n\t__s32 status;\t/* si_status */\n\t__s32 svint;\t/* si_int */\n\t__u64 svptr;\t/* si_ptr */\n\t__u64 utime;\t/* si_utime */\n\t__u64 stime;\t/* si_stime */\n\t__u64 addr;\t/* si_addr */\n};\n\n[akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix signalfd_copyinfo() on i386]\nSigned-off-by: Davide Libenzi \u003cdavidel@xmailserver.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@linux-foundation.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@linux-foundation.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "0800d30832ddecf2d9dc40068fed9df95930a8f1", "tree": "fa4aa77d9cd95818b4ba32ced6bbb096c19b1bfb", "parents": [ "85868995d9d82de5b0de38d695559daddffef893" ], "author": { "name": "Sukadev Bhattiprolu", "email": "sukadev@us.ibm.com", "time": "Thu May 10 22:23:04 2007 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@woody.linux-foundation.org", "time": "Fri May 11 08:29:36 2007 -0700" }, "message": "Use task_pgrp() task_session() in copy_process()\n\nUse task_pgrp() and task_session() in copy_process(), and avoid find_pid()\ncall when attaching the task to its process group and session.\n\nSigned-off-by: Sukadev Bhattiprolu \u003csukadev@us.ibm.com\u003e\nCc: Cedric Le Goater \u003cclg@fr.ibm.com\u003e\nCc: Dave Hansen \u003chaveblue@us.ibm.com\u003e\nCc: Serge Hallyn \u003cserue@us.ibm.com\u003e\nCc: \u003ccontainers@lists.osdl.org\u003e\nAcked-by: Eric W.

It simply counts the\nnumber of bytes passed into read() and write(). So if a process reads 1MB\nfrom an already-cached file, it is accused of having performed 1MB of I/O,\nwhich is wrong.\n\n(David Wright had some comments on the applicability of the present logical IO accounting:\n\n For billing purposes it is useless but for workload analysis it is very\n useful\n\n read_bytes/read_calls average read request size\n write_bytes/write_calls average write request size\n\n read_bytes/read_blocks ie logical/physical can indicate hit rate or thrashing\n write_bytes/write_blocks ie logical/physical guess since pdflush writes can\n be missed\n\n I often look for logical larger than physical to see filesystem cache\n problems. And the bytes/cpusec can help find applications that are\n dominating the cache and causing slow interactive response from page cache\n contention.\n\n I want to find the IO intensive applications and make sure they are doing\n efficient IO. Thus the acctcms(sysV) or csacms command would give the high\n IO commands).\n\nThis patchset adds new accounting which tries to be more accurate.

This is done at page-dirtying time.\n\n The big inaccuracy here is truncate. If a process writes 1MB to a file\n and then deletes the file, it will in fact perform no writeout. But it will\n have been accounted as having caused 1MB of write.\n\n So...\n\ncancelled_writes:\n\n account the number of bytes which this process caused to not happen, by\n truncating pagecache.\n\n We _could_ just subtract this from the process\u0027s `write\u0027 accounting. But\n that means that some processes would be reported to have done negative\n amounts of write IO, which is silly.\n\n So we just report the raw number and punt this decision up to userspace.\n\nNow, we _could_ account for writes at the physical I/O level.
