\u0027int\u0027, not\n\u0027long\u0027.\n\nNow, the reason this matters is that right now 32-bit compat mode is\nbroken on at least x86-64, because the 32-bit code just calls\n\u0027sys_poll()\u0027 directly on x86-64, and the 32-bit argument will have been\nzero-extended, turning a signed \u0027int\u0027 into a large unsigned \u0027long\u0027\nvalue.\n\nWe could just introduce a \u0027compat_sys_poll()\u0027 function for this, and\nthat may eventually be what we have to do, but since the actual standard\npoll() semantics is *supposed* to be \u0027int\u0027, and since at least on x86-64\nglibc sign-extends the argument before invocing the system call (so\nnobody can actually use a 64-bit timeout value in user space _anyway_,\neven in 64-bit binaries), the simpler solution would seem to be to just\nfix the definition of the system call to match what it should have been\nfrom the very start.\n\nIf it turns out that somebody somehow circumvents the user-level libc\n64-bit sign extension and actually uses a large unsigned 64-bit timeout\ndespite that not being how poll() is supposed to work, we will need to\ndo the compat_sys_poll() approach.\n\nReported-by: Thomas

doing\nintra-node communication to do a single copy of the message rather than a\ndouble copy of the message via shared memory.\n\nThe following patch attempts to achieve this by allowing a destination\nprocess, given an address and size from a source process, to copy memory\ndirectly from the source process into its own address space via a system\ncall. There is also a symmetrical ability to copy from the current\nprocess\u0027s address space into a destination process\u0027s address space.\n\n- Use of /proc/pid/mem has been considered, but there are issues with\n using it:\n - Does not allow for specifying iovecs for both src and dest, assuming\n preadv or pwritev was implemented either the area read from or\n written to would need to be contiguous.\n - Currently mem_read allows only processes who are currently\n ptrace\u0027ing the target and are still able to ptrace the target to read\n from the target. This check could possibly be moved to the open call,\n but its not clear exactly what race this restriction is stopping\n (reason appears to have been lost)\n - Having to send the fd of /proc/self/mem via SCM_RIGHTS on unix\n domain socket is a bit ugly from a userspace point of view,\n especially when you may have hundreds if not (eventually) thousands\n of processes that all need to do this with each other\n - Doesn\u0027t allow for some future use of the interface we would like to\n consider adding in the future (see below)\n - Interestingly reading from /proc/pid/mem currently actually\n involves two copies! (But this could be fixed pretty easily)\n\nAs mentioned previously use of vmsplice instead was considered, but has\nproblems. Since you need the reader and writer working co-operatively if\nthe pipe is not drained then you block. Which requires some wrapping to\ndo non blocking on the send side or polling on the receive. In all to all\ncommunication it requires ordering otherwise you can deadlock. And in the\nexample of many MPI tasks writing to one MPI task vmsplice serialises the\ncopying.\n\nThere are some cases of MPI collectives where even a single copy interface\ndoes not get us the performance gain we could. For example in an\nMPI_Reduce rather than copy the data from the source we would like to\ninstead use it directly in a mathops (say the reduce is doing a sum) as\nthis would save us doing a copy. We don\u0027t need to keep a copy of the data\nfrom the source. I haven\u0027t implemented this, but I think this interface\ncould in the future do all this through the use of the flags - eg could\nspecify the math operation and type and the kernel rather than just\ncopying the data would apply the specified operation between the source\nand destination and store it in the destination.\n\nAlthough we don\u0027t have a \"second user\" of the interface (though I\u0027ve had\nsome nibbles from people who may be interested in using it for intra\nprocess messaging which is not MPI). This interface is something which\nhardware vendors are already doing for their custom drivers to implement\nfast local communication. And so in addition to this being useful for\nOpenMPI it would mean the driver maintainers don\u0027t have to fix things up\nwhen the mm changes.\n\nThere was some discussion about how much faster a true zero copy would\ngo. Here\u0027s a link back to the email with some testing I did on that:\n\nhttp://marc.info/?l\u003dlinux-mm\u0026m\u003d130105930902915\u0026w\u003d2\n\nThere is a basic man page for the proposed interface here:\n\nhttp://ozlabs.org/~cyeoh/cma/process_vm_readv.txt\n\nThis has been implemented for x86 and powerpc, other architecture should\nmainly (I think) just need to add syscall numbers for the process_vm_readv\nand process_vm_writev. There are 32 bit compatibility versions for\n64-bit kernels.\n\nFor arch maintainers there are some simple tests to be able to quickly\nverify that the syscalls are working correctly here:\n\nhttp://ozlabs.org/~cyeoh/cma/cma-test-20110718.tgz\n\nSigned-off-by: Chris Yeoh \u003cyeohc@au1.ibm.com\u003e\nCc: Ingo Molnar \u003cmingo@elte.hu\u003e\nCc: \"H.

Maybe someday we can\n\n $ sync /some/path\n\nand not get\n\n sync: ignoring all arguments\n\nThe syscall is motivated by comments by Al and Christoph at the last LSF.\nsyncfs(2) seems like an appropriate name given statfs(2).\n\nA similar ioctl was also proposed a while back, see\n\thttp://marc.info/?l\u003dlinux-fsdevel\u0026m\u003d127970513829285\u0026w\u003d2\n\nSigned-off-by: Sage Weil \u003csage@newdream.net\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Al Viro \u003cviro@zeniv.linux.org.uk\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "420c1c572d4ceaa2f37b6311b7017ac6cf049fe2", "tree": "df04e6b4b756b7a46d9887462d54a3ad0e1f91d5", "parents": [ "9620639b7ea3843983f4ced8b4c81eb4d8974838", "6e6823d17b157f185be09f4c70181299f9273f0b" ], "author": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@linux-foundation.org", "time": "Tue Mar 15 18:53:35 2011 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@linux-foundation.org", "time": "Tue Mar 15 18:53:35 2011 -0700" }, "message": "Merge branch \u0027timers-core-for-linus\u0027 of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip\n\n* \u0027timers-core-for-linus\u0027 of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip: (62 commits)\n posix-clocks: Check write permissions in posix syscalls\n hrtimer: Remove empty hrtimer_init_hres_timer()\n hrtimer: Update hrtimer-\u003estate documentation\n hrtimer: Update base[CLOCK_BOOTTIME].offset correctly\n timers: Export CLOCK_BOOTTIME via the posix timers interface\n timers: Add CLOCK_BOOTTIME hrtimer base\n time: Extend get_xtime_and_monotonic_offset() to also return sleep\n time: Introduce get_monotonic_boottime and ktime_get_boottime\n hrtimers: extend hrtimer base code to handle more then 2 clockids\n ntp: Remove redundant and incorrect parameter check\n mn10300: Switch do_timer() to xtimer_update()\n posix clocks: Introduce dynamic clocks\n posix-timers: Cleanup namespace\n posix-timers: Add support for fd based clocks\n x86: Add clock_adjtime for x86\n posix-timers: Introduce a syscall for clock tuning.\n time: Splitout compat timex accessors\n ntp: Add ADJ_SETOFFSET mode bit\n time: Introduce timekeeping_inject_offset\n posix-timer: Update comment\n ...\n\nFix up new system-call-related conflicts in\n\tarch/x86/ia32/ia32entry.S\n\tarch/x86/include/asm/unistd_32.h\n\tarch/x86/include/asm/unistd_64.h\n\tarch/x86/kernel/syscall_table_32.S\n(name_to_handle_at()/open_by_handle_at() vs clock_adjtime()), and some\ndue to movement of get_jiffies_64() in:\n\tkernel/time.c\n" }, { "commit": "a926021cb1f8a99a275eaf6eb546102e9469dc59", "tree": "c6d0300cd4b1a1fd658708476db4577b68b4de31", "parents": [ "0586bed3e8563c2eb89bc7256e30ce633ae06cfb", "5e814dd597c42daeb8d2a276e64a6ec986ad0e2a" ], "author": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@linux-foundation.org", "time": "Tue Mar 15 18:31:30 2011 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@linux-foundation.org", "time": "Tue Mar 15 18:31:30 2011 -0700" }, "message": "Merge branch \u0027perf-core-for-linus\u0027 of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip\n\n* \u0027perf-core-for-linus\u0027 of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip: (184 commits)\n perf probe: Clean up probe_point_lazy_walker() return value\n tracing: Fix irqoff selftest expanding max buffer\n tracing: Align 4 byte ints together in struct tracer\n tracing: Export trace_set_clr_event()\n tracing: Explain about unstable clock on resume with ring buffer warning\n ftrace/graph: Trace function entry before updating index\n ftrace: Add .ref.text as one of the safe areas to trace\n tracing: Adjust conditional expression latency formatting.\n tracing: Fix event alignment: skb:kfree_skb\n tracing: Fix event alignment: mce:mce_record\n tracing: Fix event alignment: kvm:kvm_hv_hypercall\n tracing: Fix event alignment: module:module_request\n tracing: Fix event alignment: ftrace:context_switch and ftrace:wakeup\n tracing: Remove lock_depth from event entry\n perf header: Stop using \u0027self\u0027\n perf session: Use evlist/evsel for managing perf.data attributes\n perf top: Don\u0027t let events to eat up whole header line\n perf top: Fix events overflow in top command\n ring-buffer: Remove unused #include \u003clinux/trace_irq.h\u003e\n tracing: Add an \u0027overwrite\u0027 trace_option.\n ...\n" }, { "commit": "becfd1f37544798cbdfd788f32c827160fab98c1", "tree": "80353bdc7e59c661e841d2d0029bb308c0ed4da0", "parents": [ "990d6c2d7aee921e3bce22b2d6a750fd552262be" ], "author": { "name": "Aneesh Kumar K.V", "email": "aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com", "time": "Sat Jan 29 18:43:26 2011 +0530" }, "committer": { "name": "Al Viro", "email": "viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk", "time": "Tue Mar 15 02:21:44 2011 -0400" }, "message": "vfs: Add open by file handle support\n\n[AV: duplicate of open() guts removed;

With pending\ncode like hw-breakpoints support the \u0027counter\u0027 name is less and\nless appropriate.\n\nAll in one, we\u0027ve decided to rename the subsystem to \u0027performance\nevents\u0027 and to propagate this rename through all fields, variables\nand API names. (in an ABI compatible fashion)\n\nThe word \u0027event\u0027 is also a bit shorter than \u0027counter\u0027 - which makes\nit slightly more convenient to write/handle as well.\n\nThanks goes to Stephane Eranian who first observed this misnomer and\nsuggested a rename.\n\nUser-space tooling and ABI compatibility is not affected - this patch\nshould be function-invariant. (Also, defconfigs were not touched to\nkeep the size down.)\n\nThis patch has been generated via the following script:\n\n FILES\u003d$(find * -type f | grep -vE \u0027oprofile|[^K]config\u0027)\n\n sed -i \\\n -e \u0027s/PERF_EVENT_/PERF_RECORD_/g\u0027 \\\n -e \u0027s/PERF_COUNTER/PERF_EVENT/g\u0027 \\\n -e \u0027s/perf_counter/perf_event/g\u0027 \\\n -e \u0027s/nb_counters/nb_events/g\u0027 \\\n -e \u0027s/swcounter/swevent/g\u0027 \\\n -e \u0027s/tpcounter_event/tp_event/g\u0027 \\\n $FILES\n\n for N in $(find . -name perf_counter.[ch]); do\n M\u003d$(echo $N | sed \u0027s/perf_counter/perf_event/g\u0027)\n mv $N $M\n done\n\n FILES\u003d$(find . -name perf_event.*)\n\n sed -i \\\n -e \u0027s/COUNTER_MASK/REG_MASK/g\u0027 \\\n -e \u0027s/COUNTER/EVENT/g\u0027 \\\n -e \u0027s/\\\u003cevent\\\u003e/event_id/g\u0027 \\\n -e \u0027s/counter/event/g\u0027 \\\n -e \u0027s/Counter/Event/g\u0027 \\\n $FILES\n\n... to keep it as correct as possible. This script can also be\nused by anyone who has pending perfcounters patches - it converts\na Linux kernel tree over to the new naming. We tried to time this\nchange to the point in time where the amount of pending patches\nis the smallest: the end of the merge window.\n\nNamespace clashes were fixed up in a preparatory patch - and some\nstylistic fallout will be fixed up in a subsequent patch.\n\n( NOTE: \u0027counters\u0027 are still the proper terminology when we deal\n with hardware registers - and these sed scripts are a bit\n over-eager in renaming them. I\u0027ve undone some of that, but\n in case there\u0027s something left where \u0027counter\u0027 would be\n better than \u0027event\u0027 we can undo that on an individual basis\n instead of touching an otherwise nicely automated patch. )\n\nSuggested-by: Stephane Eranian \u003ceranian@google.com\u003e\nAcked-by: Peter Zijlstra \u003ca.p.zijlstra@chello.nl\u003e\nAcked-by: Paul Mackerras \u003cpaulus@samba.org\u003e\nReviewed-by: Arjan van de Ven \u003carjan@linux.intel.com\u003e\nCc: Mike Galbraith \u003cefault@gmx.de\u003e\nCc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo \u003cacme@redhat.com\u003e\nCc: Frederic Weisbecker \u003cfweisbec@gmail.com\u003e\nCc: Steven Rostedt \u003crostedt@goodmis.org\u003e\nCc: Benjamin Herrenschmidt \u003cbenh@kernel.crashing.org\u003e\nCc: David Howells \u003cdhowells@redhat.com\u003e\nCc: Kyle McMartin \u003ckyle@mcmartin.ca\u003e\nCc: Martin Schwidefsky \u003cschwidefsky@de.ibm.com\u003e\nCc: \"David S.

Why?\nBecause when we have it like this, the 64-bit system calls now don\u0027t use\nthe \"pos_high\" argument at all, and it makes more sense for the native\nsystem call to simply match the user-mode prototype.\n\nThis results in a much more natural calling convention, and allows the\ncompiler to generate much more straightforward code. On x86-64, we now\ngenerate\n\n testq %rcx, %rcx # pos_l\n js .L122 #,\n movq %rcx, -48(%rbp) # pos_l, pos\n\nfrom the C source\n\n loff_t pos \u003d pos_from_hilo(pos_h, pos_l);\n\t...\n if (pos \u003c 0)\n return -EINVAL;\n\nand the \u0027pos_h\u0027 register isn\u0027t even touched.

You can\njust do\n\n\t#define HALF_BITS (sizeof(unsigned long)*4)\n\t__syscall(PWRITEV, fd, iov, count, offset, (offset \u003e\u003e HALF_BITS) \u003e\u003e HALF_BITS);\n\nor something like that. That way the user mode wrapper will also be\nnicely passing in a zero (it won\u0027t actually have to do the shifts, the\ncompiler will understand what is going on) for the last argument.\n\nAnd that is a good idea, even if nobody will necessarily ever care: if\nwe ever do move to a 128-bit lloff_t, this particular system call might\nbe left alone. Of course, that will be the least of our worries if we\nreally ever need to care, so this may not be worth really caring about.\n\n[ Fixed for lost \u0027loff_t\u0027 cast noticed by Andrew Morton ]\n\nAcked-by: Gerd Hoffmann \u003ckraxel@redhat.com\u003e\nCc: H.
