Except for\ns390 and sparc64 all implementations of the sys_ipc are nearly identical.\n\nThere are slight differences in the types of the parameters, where mips\nand powerpc as the only 64-bit architectures with sys_ipc use unsigned\nlong for the \"third\" argument as it gets casted to a pointer later, while\nit traditionally is an \"int\" like most other paramters. frv goes even\nfurther and uses unsigned long for all parameters execept for \"ptr\" which\nis a pointer type everywhere. The change from int to unsigned long for\n\"third\" and back to \"int\" for the others on frv should be fine due to the\nin-register calling conventions for syscalls (we already had a similar\nissue with the generic sys_ptrace), but I\u0027d prefer to have the arch\nmaintainers looks over this in details.\n\nExcept for that h8300, m68k and m68knommu lack an impplementation of the\nsemtimedop sub call which this patch adds, and various architectures have\ngets used - at least on i386 it seems superflous as the compat code on\nx86-64 and ia64 doesn\u0027t even bother to implement it.\n\n[akpm@linux-foundation.org: add sys_ipc to sys_ni.c]\nSigned-off-by: Christoph Hellwig \u003chch@lst.de\u003e\nCc: Ralf Baechle \u003cralf@linux-mips.org\u003e\nCc: Benjamin Herrenschmidt \u003cbenh@kernel.crashing.org\u003e\nCc: Paul Mundt \u003clethal@linux-sh.org\u003e\nCc: Jeff Dike \u003cjdike@addtoit.com\u003e\nCc: Hirokazu Takata \u003ctakata@linux-m32r.org\u003e\nCc: Thomas Gleixner \u003ctglx@linutronix.de\u003e\nCc: Ingo Molnar \u003cmingo@elte.hu\u003e\nReviewed-by: H.

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.

Of course,\nthe emulator can emulate the MMU by checking and possibly remapping\nthe address for each memory access in software, but that is pretty\nslow.\n\nThis provides a facility for such programs to control the access\npermissions on individual 4k sub-pages of 64k pages. The idea is\nthat the emulator supplies an array of protection masks to apply to a\nspecified range of virtual addresses. These masks are applied at the\nlevel where hardware PTEs are inserted into the hardware page table\nbased on the Linux PTEs, so the Linux PTEs are not affected. Note\nthat this new mechanism does not allow any access that would otherwise\nbe prohibited; it can only prohibit accesses that would otherwise be\nallowed. This new facility is only available on 64-bit PowerPC and\nonly when the kernel is configured for 64k pages.\n\nThe masks are supplied using a new subpage_prot system call, which\ntakes a starting virtual address and length, and a pointer to an array\nof protection masks in memory. The array has a 32-bit word per 64k\npage to be protected; each 32-bit word consists of 16 2-bit fields,\nfor which 0 allows any access (that is otherwise allowed), 1 prevents\nwrite accesses, and 2 or 3 prevent any access.\n\nImplicit in this is that the regions of the address space that are\nprotected are switched to use 4k hardware pages rather than 64k\nhardware pages (on machines with hardware 64k page support). In fact\nthe whole process is switched to use 4k hardware pages when the\nsubpage_prot system call is used, but this could be improved in future\nto switch only the affected segments.\n\nThe subpage protection bits are stored in a 3 level tree akin to the\npage table tree. The top level of this tree is stored in a structure\nthat is appended to the top level of the page table tree, i.e., the\npgd array. Since it will often only be 32-bit addresses (below 4GB)\nthat are protected, the pointers to the first four bottom level pages\nare also stored in this structure (each bottom level page contains the\nprotection bits for 1GB of address space), so the protection bits for\naddresses below 4GB can be accessed with one fewer loads than those\nfor higher addresses.\n\nSigned-off-by: Paul Mackerras \u003cpaulus@samba.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "f3baa4827a4b13905dbbdddf15463541bd671dfd", "tree": "2c947c26873fc90f98dccb0dfb39f9de38bd44c0", "parents": [ "6cf92e98a48ba4bd5aeb8932b3844d3f8eacac76" ], "author": { "name": "David S.

A process may\nhave migrated to another node. Memory was allocated optimally for the prior\ncontext. sys_migrate_pages allows to shift the memory to the new node.\n\nsys_migrate_pages is also useful if the processes available memory nodes have\nchanged through cpuset operations to manually move the processes memory. Paul\nJackson is working on an automated mechanism that will allow an automatic\nmigration if the cpuset of a process is changed. However, a user may decide\nto manually control the migration.\n\nThis implementation is put into the policy layer since it uses concepts and\nfunctions that are also needed for mbind and friends. The patch also provides\na do_migrate_pages function that may be useful for cpusets to automatically\nmove memory. sys_migrate_pages does not modify policies in contrast to Ray\u0027s\nimplementation.\n\nThe current code here is based on the swap based page migration capability and\nthus is not able to preserve the physical layout relative to it containing\nnodeset (which may be a cpuset).

While i\u0027m sure Martin is\ntrying to solve a real problem, we must not hard-code an incomplete and\ninsufficient approach into a syscall, because syscalls are pretty much\nfor eternity. I am quite strongly convinced that this syscall must not\nhit v2.6.13 in its current form.\n\nFirstly, the syscall lacks basic syscall design: e.g. it allows the\nglobal setting of VM policy for unprivileged users. (!) [ Imagine an\nOracle installation and a SAP installation on the same NUMA box fighting\nover the \u0027optimal\u0027 setting for this flag. What will they do? Will they\ntry to set the flag to their own preferred value every second or so? ]\n\nSecondly, it was added based on a single datapoint from Martin:\n\n http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l\u003dlinux-mm\u0026m\u003d111763597218177\u0026w\u003d2\n\nwhere Martin characterizes the numbers the following way:\n\n \u0027 Run-to-run variability for \"make -j\" is huge, so these numbers aren\u0027t\n terribly useful except to see that with reclaim the benchmark still\n finishes in a reasonable amount of time. \u0027\n\nin other words: the fundamental problem has likely not been solved, only\na tendential move into the right direction has been observed, and a\nhandful of numbers were picked out of a set of hugely variable results,\nwithout showing the variability data. How much variance is there\nrun-to-run?\n\nI\u0027d really suggest to first walk the walk and see what\u0027s needed to get\nstable \u0026 predictable kernel compilation numbers on that NUMA box, before\nadding random syscalls to tune a particular aspect of the VM ... which\napproach might not even matter once the whole picture has been analyzed\nand understood!\n\nThe third, most important point is that the syscall exposes VM tuning\ninternals in a completely unstructured way. What sense does it make to\nhave a _GLOBAL_ per-node setting for \u0027should we go to another node for\nreclaim\u0027? If then it might make sense to do this per-app, via numalib or\nso.\n\nThe change is minimalistic in that it doesnt remove the syscall and the\nunderlying infrastructure changes, only the user-visible changes. We\ncould perhaps add a CAP_SYS_ADMIN-only sysctl for this hack, a\u0027ka\n/proc/sys/vm/swappiness, but even that looks quite counterproductive\nwhen the generic approach is that we are trying to reduce the number of\nexternal factors in the VM balance picture.\n\nSigned-off-by: Ingo Molnar \u003cmingo@elte.hu\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "0eeca28300df110bd6ed54b31193c83b87921443", "tree": "7db42d8a18d80eca538f5b7d25e0532b8fa38b85", "parents": [ "bd4c625c061c2a38568d0add3478f59172455159" ], "author": { "name": "Robert Love", "email": "rml@novell.com", "time": "Tue Jul 12 17:06:03 2005 -0400" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@g5.osdl.org", "time": "Tue Jul 12 20:38:38 2005 -0700" }, "message": "[PATCH] inotify\n\ninotify is intended to correct the deficiencies of dnotify, particularly\nits inability to scale and its terrible user interface:\n\n * dnotify requires the opening of one fd per each directory\n that you intend to watch.

Here are some numbers for kernbench\nruns on a 2-node, 4cpu, 8Gig RAM Altix in the \"make -j\" run:\n\n\t\t\twall user sys %cpu ctx sw. sleeps\n\t\t\t---- ---- --- ---- ------ ------\nNo patch\t\t1009 1384 847 258 298170 504402\nw/patch, no reclaim 880 1376 667 288 254064 396745\nw/patch \u0026 reclaim 1079 1385 926 252 291625 548873\n\nThese numbers are the average of 2 runs of 3 \"make -j\" runs done right\nafter system boot. Run-to-run variability for \"make -j\" is huge, so\nthese numbers aren\u0027t terribly useful except to seee that with reclaim\nthe benchmark still finishes in a reasonable amount of time.\n\nI also looked at the NUMA hit/miss stats for the \"make -j\" runs and the\nreclaim doesn\u0027t make any difference when the machine is thrashing away.\n\nDoing a \"make -j8\" on a single node that is filled with page cache pages\ntakes 700 seconds with reclaim turned on and 735 seconds without reclaim\n(due to remote memory accesses).\n\nThe simple zone_reclaim syscall program is at\nhttp://www.bork.org/~mort/sgi/zone_reclaim.c\n\nSigned-off-by: Martin Hicks \u003cmort@sgi.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "7d87e14c236d6c4cab66d87cf0bc1e0f0375d308", "tree": "0c0826cdc102286b541e3e56b59c81752d34c90d", "parents": [ "434498d5323445b59167fd7aa5633b74ebbce901" ], "author": { "name": "Stephen Rothwell", "email": "sfr@canb.auug.org.au", "time": "Sun May 01 08:59:12 2005 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@ppc970.osdl.org", "time": "Sun May 01 08:59:12 2005 -0700" }, "message": "[PATCH] consolidate sys_shmat\n\nSigned-off-by: Stephen Rothwell \u003csfr@canb.auug.org.au\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "1da177e4c3f41524e886b7f1b8a0c1fc7321cac2", "tree": "0bba044c4ce775e45a88a51686b5d9f90697ea9d", "parents": [], "author": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@ppc970.osdl.org", "time": "Sat Apr 16 15:20:36 2005 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@ppc970.osdl.org", "time": "Sat Apr 16 15:20:36 2005 -0700" }, "message": "Linux-2.6.12-rc2\n\nInitial git repository build.
