But TX completion for UDP/TCP frames call\nsock_wfree() which in turn schedules thread.\n\nWhen scheduled, thread does a full scan of all polled fds and can sleep\nagain, because nothing is really available.  If number of fds is large,\nthis cause significant load.\n\nThis patch makes select()/poll() aware of keyed wakeups and useless\nwakeups are avoided.  This reduces number of context switches by about 50%\non some setups, and work performed by sofirq handlers.\n\nSigned-off-by: Eric Dumazet \u003cdada1@cosmosbay.com\u003e\nAcked-by: David S.

      "message": "[PATCH] fdtable: Make fdarray and fdsets equal in size\n\nCurrently, each fdtable supports three dynamically-sized arrays of data: the\nfdarray and two fdsets.  The code allows the number of fds supported by the\nfdarray (fdtable-\u003emax_fds) to differ from the number of fds supported by each\nof the fdsets (fdtable-\u003emax_fdset).\n\nIn practice, it is wasteful for these two sizes to differ: whenever we hit a\nlimit on the smaller-capacity structure, we will reallocate the entire fdtable\nand all the dynamic arrays within it, so any delta in the memory used by the\nlarger-capacity structure will never be touched at all.\n\nRather than hogging this excess, we shouldn\u0027t even allocate it in the first\nplace, and keep the capacities of the fdarray and the fdsets equal.  This\npatch removes fdtable-\u003emax_fdset.  As an added bonus, most of the supporting\ncode becomes simpler.\n\nSigned-off-by: Vadim Lobanov \u003cvlobanov@speakeasy.net\u003e\nCc: Christoph Hellwig \u003chch@lst.de\u003e\nCc: Al Viro \u003cviro@zeniv.linux.org.uk\u003e\nCc: Dipankar Sarma \u003cdipankar@in.ibm.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n"

      "message": "[PATCH] enforce RLIMIT_NOFILE in poll()\n\nPOSIX states that poll() shall fail with EINVAL if nfds \u003e OPEN_MAX.  In\nthis context, POSIX is referring to sysconf(OPEN_MAX), which is the value\nof current-\u003esignal-\u003erlim[RLIMIT_NOFILE].rlim_cur in the linux kernel, not\nthe compile-time constant which happens to also be named OPEN_MAX.  In the\ncurrent code, an application may poll up to max_fdset file descriptors,\neven if this exceeds RLIMIT_NOFILE.  The current code also breaks\napplications which poll more than max_fdset descriptors, which worked circa\n2.4.18 when the check was against NR_OPEN, which is 1024*1024.  This patch\nenforces the limit precisely as POSIX defines, even if RLIMIT_NOFILE has\nbeen changed at run time with ulimit -n.\n\nTo elaborate on the rationale for this, there are three cases:\n\n1) RLIMIT_NOFILE is at the default value of 1024\n\nIn this (default) case, the patch changes nothing.  Calls with nfds \u003e 1024\nfail with EINVAL both before and after the patch, and calls with nfds \u003c\u003d\n1024 pass the check both before and after the patch, since 1024 is the\ninitial value of max_fdset.\n\n2) RLIMIT_NOFILE has been raised above the default\n\nIn this case, poll() becomes more permissive, allowing polling up to\nRLIMIT_NOFILE file descriptors even if less than 1024 have been opened.\nThe patch won\u0027t introduce new errors here.  If an application somehow\ndepends on poll() failing when it polls with duplicate or invalid file\ndescriptors, it\u0027s already broken, since this is already allowed below 1024,\nand will also work above 1024 if enough file descriptors have been open at\nsome point to cause max_fdset to have been increased above nfds.\n\n3) RLIMIT_NOFILE has been lowered below the default\n\nIn this case, the system administrator or the user has gone out of their\nway to protect the system from inefficient (or malicious) applications\nwasting kernel memory.  The current code allows polling up to 1024 file\ndescriptors even if RLIMIT_NOFILE is much lower, which is not what the user\nor administrator intended.  Well-written applications which only poll\nvalid, unique file descriptors will never notice the difference, because\nthey\u0027ll hit the limit on open() first.  If an application gets broken\nbecause of the patch in this case, then it was already poorly/maliciously\ndesigned, and allowing it to work in the past was a violation of POSIX and\na DoS risk on low-resource systems.\n\nWith this patch, poll() will permit exactly what POSIX suggests, no more,\nno less, and for any run-time value set with ulimit -n, not just 256 or\n1024.  There are existing apps which which poll a large number of file\ndescriptors, some of which may be invalid, and if those numbers stradle\n1024, they currently fail with or without the patch in -mm, though they\nworked fine under 2.4.18.\n\nSigned-off-by: Chris Snook \u003ccsnook@redhat.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n"

      "message": "[PATCH] Optimize select/poll by putting small data sets on the stack\n\nOptimize select and poll by a using stack space for small fd sets\n\nThis brings back an old optimization from Linux 2.0.  Using the stack is\nfaster than kmalloc.  On a Intel P4 system it speeds up a select of a\nsingle pty fd by about 13% (~4000 cycles -\u003e ~3500)\n\nIt also saves memory because a daemon hanging in select or poll will\nusually save one or two less pages.  This can add up - e.g.  if you have 10\ndaemons blocking in poll/select you save 40KB of memory.\n\nI did a patch for this long ago, but it was never applied.  This version is\na reimplementation of the old patch that tries to be less intrusive.  I\nonly did the minimal changes needed for the stack allocation.\n\nThe cut off point before external memory is allocated is currently at\n832bytes.  The system calls always allocate this much memory on the stack.\n\nThese 832 bytes are divided into 256 bytes frontend data (for the select\nbitmaps of the pollfds) and the rest of the space for the wait queues used\nby the low level drivers.  There are some extreme cases where this won\u0027t\nwork out for select and it falls back to allocating memory too early -\nespecially with very sparse large select bitmaps - but the majority of\nprocesses who only have a small number of file descriptors should be ok.\n[TBD: 832/256 might not be the best split for select or poll]\n\nI suspect more optimizations might be possible, but they would be more\ncomplicated.  One way would be to cache the select/poll context over\nmultiple system calls because typically the input values should be similar.\n Problem is when to flush the file descriptors out though.\n\nSigned-off-by: Andi Kleen \u003cak@suse.de\u003e\nCc: Eric Dumazet \u003cdada1@cosmosbay.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n"

We _deliberately_\nround up, since we know we must wait at _least_ as long as the caller asks\nus to.\n\nThe patch adds a couple of helper functions for magnitude comparison of\ntimespecs and of timevals, and uses them to prevent the various poll and\nselect functions from returning a timeout which is larger than the one which\nwas passed in.\n\nThe patch also fixes a bug in compat_sys_pselect7(): it was adding the new\ntimeout value to the old one and was returning that.  It should just return\nthe new timeout value.\n\n(We have various handy timespec/timeval-to-from-nsec conversion functions in\ntime.h.  But this code open-codes it all).\n\nCc: \"David S.

      "message": "[PATCH] Add pselect/ppoll system call implementation\n\nThe following implementation of ppoll() and pselect() system calls\ndepends on the architecture providing a TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK flag in the\nthread_info.\n\nThese system calls have to change the signal mask during their\noperation, and signal handlers must be invoked using the new, temporary\nsignal mask. The old signal mask must be restored either upon successful\nexit from the system call, or upon returning from the invoked signal\nhandler if the system call is interrupted. We can\u0027t simply restore the\noriginal signal mask and return to userspace, since the restored signal\nmask may actually block the signal which interrupted the system call.\n\nThe TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK flag deals with this by causing the syscall exit\npath to trap into do_signal() just as TIF_SIGPENDING does, and by\ncausing do_signal() to use the saved signal mask instead of the current\nsignal mask when setting up the stack frame for the signal handler -- or\nby causing do_signal() to simply restore the saved signal mask in the\ncase where there is no handler to be invoked.\n\nThe first patch implements the sys_pselect() and sys_ppoll() system\ncalls, which are present only if TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK is defined. That\n#ifdef should go away in time when all architectures have implemented\nit. The second patch implements TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK for the PowerPC\nkernel (in the -mm tree), and the third patch then removes the\narch-specific implementations of sys_rt_sigsuspend() and replaces them\nwith generic versions using the same trick.\n\nThe fourth and fifth patches, provided by David Howells, implement\nTIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK for FR-V and i386 respectively, and the sixth patch\nadds the syscalls to the i386 syscall table.\n\nThis patch:\n\nAdd the pselect() and ppoll() system calls, providing core routines usable by\nthe original select() and poll() system calls and also the new calls (with\ntheir semantics w.r.t timeouts).\n\nSigned-off-by: David Woodhouse \u003cdwmw2@infradead.org\u003e\nCc: Michael Kerrisk \u003cmtk-manpages@gmx.net\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n"
