Also it is full integrated with adaptive readahead.\n\nIt is designed to be called on demand:\n\t- on a missing page, to do synchronous readahead\n\t- on a lookahead page, to do asynchronous readahead\n\nIn this way it eliminated the awkward workarounds for cache hit/miss,\nreadahead thrashing, retried read, and unaligned read. It also adopts the\ndata structure introduced by adaptive readahead, parameterizes readahead\npipelining with `lookahead_index\u0027, and reduces the current/ahead windows to\none single window.\n\nHEURISTICS\n\nThe logic deals with four cases:\n\n\t- sequential-next\n\t\tfound a consistent readahead window, so push it forward\n\n\t- random\n\t\tstandalone small read, so read as is\n\n\t- sequential-first\n\t\tcreate a new readahead window for a sequential/oversize request\n\n\t- lookahead-clueless\n\t\thit a lookahead page not associated with the readahead window,\n\t\tso create a new readahead window and ramp it up\n\nIn each case, three parameters are determined:\n\n\t- readahead index: where the next readahead begins\n\t- readahead size: how much to readahead\n\t- lookahead size: when to do the next readahead (for pipelining)\n\nBEHAVIORS\n\nThe old behaviors are maximally preserved for trivial sequential/random reads.\nNotable changes are:\n\n\t- It no longer imposes strict sequential checks.\n\t It might help some interleaved cases, and clustered random reads.\n\t It does introduce risks of a random lookahead hit triggering an\n\t unexpected readahead. But in general it is more likely to do good\n\t than to do evil.\n\n\t- Interleaved reads are supported in a minimal way.\n\t Their chances of being detected and proper handled are still low.\n\n\t- Readahead thrashings are better handled.\n\t The current readahead leads to tiny average I/O sizes, because it\n\t never turn back for the thrashed pages. They have to be fault in\n\t by do_generic_mapping_read() one by one. Whereas the on-demand\n\t readahead will redo readahead for them.\n\nOVERHEADS\n\nThe new code reduced the overheads of\n\n\t- excessively calling the readahead routine on small sized reads\n\t (the current readahead code insists on seeing all requests)\n\n\t- doing a lot of pointless page-cache lookups for small cached files\n\t (the current readahead only turns itself off after 256 cache hits,\n\t unfortunately most files are \u003c 1MB, so never see that chance)\n\nThat accounts for speedup of\n\t- 0.3% on 1-page sequential reads on sparse file\n\t- 1.2% on 1-page cache hot sequential reads\n\t- 3.2% on 256-page cache hot sequential reads\n\t- 1.3% on cache hot `tar /lib`\n\nHowever, it does introduce one extra page-cache lookup per cache miss, which\nimpacts random reads slightly. That\u0027s 1% overheads for 1-page random reads on\nsparse file.\n\nPERFORMANCE\n\nThe basic benchmark setup is\n\t- 2.6.20 kernel with on-demand readahead\n\t- 1MB max readahead size\n\t- 2.9GHz Intel Core 2 CPU\n\t- 2GB memory\n\t- 160G/8M Hitachi SATA II 7200 RPM disk\n\nThe benchmarks show that\n\t- it maintains the same performance for trivial sequential/random reads\n\t- sysbench/OLTP performance on MySQL gains up to 8%\n\t- performance on readahead thrashing gains up to 3 times\n\niozone throughput (KB/s): roughly the

Which might save more seeks.\n\t- Naturally, the readahead windows tend to lie in hot areas,\n\t and the lookahead pages in hot areas is more likely to be hit.\n\t- The more overall read density, the more possible gain.\n\nThat also explains the adaptive readahead tricks for clustered random reads.\n\nreadahead thrashing: 3 times better\n\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\nWe boot kernel with \"mem\u003d128m single\", and start a 100KB/s stream on every\nsecond, until reaching 200 streams.\n\n\t\t\t max throughput min avg I/O size\n\t\t2.6.20: 5MB/s 16KB\n\t\ton-demand: 15MB/s 140KB\n\nSigned-off-by: Fengguang Wu \u003cwfg@mail.ustc.edu.cn\u003e\nCc: Steven Pratt \u003cslpratt@austin.ibm.com\u003e\nCc: Ram Pai \u003clinuxram@us.ibm.com\u003e\nCc: Rusty Russell \u003crusty@rustcorp.com.au\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@linux-foundation.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@linux-foundation.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "5ce1110b92b31d079aa443e967f43a2294e01194", "tree": "eff95b4c8ede07d0777ca68a30d686d1acbb5c73", "parents": [ "f615bfca468c9b80ed2d09be5fdbaf470a32c045" ], "author": { "name": "Fengguang Wu", "email": "wfg@mail.ustc.edu.cn", "time": "Thu Jul 19 01:47:59 2007 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@woody.linux-foundation.org", "time": "Thu Jul 19 10:04:44 2007 -0700" }, "message": "readahead: data structure and routines\n\nExtend struct file_ra_state to support the on-demand readahead logic.

Namely, in that cases we need\nto disable the GPEs before replacing the \"boot\" kernel with the \"frozen\"\nkernel (cf. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id\u003d7887). After the\nrestore they will be re-enabled by hibernation_ops-\u003efinish(), but if the\nrestore fails, they have to be re-enabled by the restore code explicitly.\n\nFor this purpose we can introduce two additional hibernation operations,\ncalled pre_restore() and restore_cleanup() and call them from the restore code\npath. Still, they should be called if the \"platform\" mode of hibernation has\nbeen used, so we need to pass the information about the hibernation mode from\nthe \"frozen\" kernel to the \"boot\" kernel in the image header.\n\nApparently, we can\u0027t drop the disabling of GPEs before the restore because of\nBug #7887 .  We also can\u0027t do it unconditionally, because the GPEs wouldn\u0027t\nhave been enabled after a successful restore if the suspend had been done in\nthe \u0027shutdown\u0027 or \u0027reboot\u0027 mode.\n\nIn principle we could (and probably should) unconditionally disable the GPEs\nbefore each snapshot creation *and* before the restore, but then we\u0027d have to\nunconditionally enable them after the snapshot creation as well as after the\nrestore (or restore failure)   Still, for this purpose we\u0027d need to modify\nacpi_enter_sleep_state_prep() and acpi_leave_sleep_state() and we\u0027d have to\nintroduce some mechanism synchronizing the disablind/enabling of the GPEs with\nthe device drivers\u0027 .suspend()/.resume() routines and with\ndisable_/enable_nonboot_cpus().  However, this would have affected the\nsuspend (ie. s2ram) code as well as the hibernation, which I\u0027d like to avoid\nin this patch series.\n\nSigned-off-by: Rafael J.

Between shooting down ptes to\na particular page, and actually dropping the struct page from the pagecache,\ndo_no_page from any process might fault on that page and establish a new\nmapping to the page just before it gets discarded from the pagecache.\n\nThe most common case where such invalidation is used is in file truncation.\nThis case was catered for by doing a sort of open-coded seqlock between the\nfile\u0027s i_size, and its truncate_count.\n\nTruncation will decrease i_size, then increment truncate_count before\nunmapping userspace pages; do_no_page will read truncate_count, then find the\npage if it is within i_size, and then check truncate_count under the page\ntable lock and back out and retry if it had subsequently been changed (ptl\nwill serialise against unmapping, and ensure a potentially updated\ntruncate_count is actually visible).\n\nComplexity and documentation issues aside, the locking protocol fails in the\ncase where we would like to invalidate pagecache inside i_size. do_no_page\ncan come in anytime and filemap_nopage is not aware of the invalidation in\nprogress (as it is when it is outside i_size). The end result is that\ndangling (-\u003emapping \u003d\u003d NULL) pages that appear to be from a particular file\nmay be mapped into userspace with nonsense data. Valid mappings to the same\nplace will see a different page.\n\nAndrea implemented two working fixes, one using a real seqlock, another using\na page-\u003eflags bit. He also proposed using the page lock in do_no_page, but\nthat was initially considered too heavyweight. However, it is not a global or\nper-file lock, and the page cacheline is modified in do_no_page to increment\n_count and _mapcount anyway, so a further modification should not be a large\nperformance hit. Scalability is not an issue.\n\nThis patch implements this latter approach. -\u003enopage implementations return\nwith the page locked if it is possible for their underlying file to be\ninvalidated (in that case, they must set a special vm_flags bit to indicate\nso). do_no_page only unlocks the page after setting up the mapping\ncompletely. invalidation is excluded because it holds the page lock during\ninvalidation of each page (and ensures that the page is not mapped while\nholding the lock).\n\nThis also allows significant simplifications in do_no_page, because we have\nthe page locked in the right place in the pagecache from the start.\n\nSigned-off-by: Nick Piggin \u003cnpiggin@suse.de\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@linux-foundation.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus

The main\nsteps are:\n 1. Install the Xen paravirt_ops, which is simply a matter of a\n structure assignment.\n 2. Set init_mm to use the Xen-supplied pagetables (analogous to the\n head.S generated pagetables in a native boot).\n 3. Reserve address space for Xen, since it takes a chunk at the top\n of the address space for its own use.\n 4. Call start_kernel()\n\nPAGETABLE SETUP\n\nOnce we hit the main kernel boot sequence, it will end up calling back\nvia paravirt_ops to set up various pieces of Xen specific state. One\nof the critical things which requires a bit of extra care is the\nconstruction of the initial init_mm pagetable. Because Xen places\ntight constraints on pagetables (an active pagetable must always be\nvalid, and must always be mapped read-only to the guest domain), we\nneed to be careful when constructing the new pagetable to keep these\nconstraints in mind. It turns out that the easiest way to do this is\nuse the initial Xen-provided pagetable as a template, and then just\ninsert new mappings for memory where a mapping doesn\u0027t already exist.\n\nThis means that during pagetable setup, it uses a special version of\nxen_set_pte which ignores any attempt to remap a read-only page as\nread-write (since Xen will map its own initial pagetable as RO), but\nlets other changes to the ptes happen, so that things like NX are set\nproperly.\n\nPRIVILEGED INSTRUCTIONS AND SEGMENTATION\n\nWhen the kernel runs under Xen, it runs in ring 1 rather than ring 0.\nThis means that it is more privileged than user-mode in ring 3, but it\nstill can\u0027t run privileged instructions directly. Non-performance\ncritical instructions are dealt with by taking a privilege exception\nand trapping into the hypervisor and emulating the instruction, but\nmore performance-critical instructions have their own specific\nparavirt_ops. In many cases we can avoid having to do any hypercalls\nfor these instructions, or the Xen implementation is quite different\nfrom the normal native version.\n\nThe privileged instructions fall into the broad classes of:\n Segmentation: setting up the GDT and the GDT entries, LDT,\n TLS and so on. Xen doesn\u0027t allow the GDT to be directly\n modified; all GDT updates are done via hypercalls where the new\n entries can be validated. This is important because Xen uses\n segment limits to prevent the guest kernel from damaging the\n hypervisor itself.\n Traps and exceptions: Xen uses a special format for trap entrypoints,\n so when the kernel wants to set an IDT entry, it needs to be\n converted to the form Xen expects. Xen sets int 0x80 up specially\n so that the trap goes straight from userspace into the guest kernel\n without going via the hypervisor. sysenter isn\u0027t supported.\n Kernel stack: The esp0 entry is extracted from the tss and provided to\n Xen.\n TLB operations: the various TLB calls are mapped into corresponding\n Xen hypercalls.\n Control registers: all the control registers are privileged. The most\n important is cr3, which points to the base of the current pagetable,\n and we handle it specially.\n\nAnother instruction we treat specially is CPUID, even though its not\nprivileged. We want to control what CPU features are visible to the\nrest of the kernel, and so CPUID ends up going into a paravirt_op.\nXen implements this mainly to disable the ACPI and APIC subsystems.\n\nINTERRUPT FLAGS\n\nXen maintains its own separate flag for masking events, which is\ncontained within the per-cpu vcpu_info structure. Because the guest\nkernel runs in ring 1 and not 0, the IF flag in EFLAGS is completely\nignored (and must be, because even if a guest domain disables\ninterrupts for itself, it can\u0027t disable them overall).\n\n(A note on terminology: \"events\" and interrupts are effectively\nsynonymous. However, rather than using an \"enable flag\", Xen uses a\n\"mask flag\", which blocks event delivery when it is non-zero.)\n\nThere are paravirt_ops for each of cli/sti/save_fl/restore_fl, which\nare implemented to manage the Xen event mask state. The only thing\nworth noting is that when events are unmasked, we need to explicitly\nsee if there\u0027s a pending event and call into the hypervisor to make\nsure it gets delivered.\n\nUPCALLS\n\nXen needs a couple of upcall (or callback) functions to be implemented\nby each guest. One is the event upcalls, which is how events\n(interrupts, effectively) are delivered to the guests. The other is\nthe failsafe callback, which is used to report errors in either\nreloading a segment register, or caused by iret. These are\nimplemented in i386/kernel/entry.S so they can jump into the normal\niret_exc path when necessary.\n\nMULTICALL BATCHING\n\nXen provides a multicall mechanism, which allows multiple hypercalls\nto be issued at once in order to mitigate the cost of trapping into\nthe hypervisor. This is particularly useful for context switches,\nsince the 4-5 hypercalls they would normally need (reload cr3, update\nTLS, maybe update LDT) can be reduced to one. This patch implements a\ngeneric batching mechanism for hypercalls, which gets used in many\nplaces in the Xen code.\n\nSigned-off-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge \u003cjeremy@xensource.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Chris Wright \u003cchrisw@sous-sol.org\u003e\nCc: Ian Pratt \u003cian.pratt@xensource.com\u003e\nCc: Christian Limpach \u003cChristian.Limpach@cl.cam.ac.uk\u003e\nCc: Adrian Bunk \u003cbunk@stusta.de\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "a42089dd358a7673a0a23126589a9029e57c2049", "tree": "aa076610832f5cdb0ee209c42ea7e40d54534ef4", "parents": [ "24037a8b69dbf15bfed8fd42a2a2e442d7b0395b" ], "author": { "name": "Jeremy Fitzhardinge", "email": "jeremy@xensource.com", "time": "Tue Jul 17 18:37:04 2007 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Jeremy Fitzhardinge", "email": "jeremy@goop.org", "time": "Wed Jul 18 08:47:42 2007 -0700" }, "message": "xen: Add Xen interface header files\n\nAdd Xen interface header files.
