      "message": "include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h\n\npercpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being\nincluded when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which\nin turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files\nuniversally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.\n\npercpu.h -\u003e slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for\nthis change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those\nheaders directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion\nneeds to touch large number of source files, the following script is\nused as the basis of conversion.\n\n  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py\n\nThe script does the followings.\n\n* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that\n  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,\n  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.\n\n* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include\n  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms\n  to its surrounding.  It\u0027s put in the include block which contains\n  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -\n  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there\n  doesn\u0027t seem to be any matching order.\n\n* If the script can\u0027t find a place to put a new include (mostly\n  because the file doesn\u0027t have fitting include block), it prints out\n  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the\n  file.\n\nThe conversion was done in the following steps.\n\n1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly\n   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h\n   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400\n   files.\n\n2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn\u0027t need the inclusion,\n   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or\n   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added\n   inclusions to around 150 files.\n\n3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits\n   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.\n\n4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.\n   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab\n   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.\n\n5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically\n   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h\n   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h\n   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually\n   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each\n   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as\n   necessary.\n\n6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.\n\n7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures\n   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my\n   distributed build env didn\u0027t work with gcov compiles) and a few\n   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things\n   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).\n\n   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.\n   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig\n   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig\n   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig\n   * s390 SMP allmodconfig\n   * alpha SMP allmodconfig\n   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig\n\n8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as\n   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.\n\nGiven the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step\n6, I\u0027m fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.\nIf there is a breakage, it\u0027s likely to be something in one of the arch\nheaders which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of\nthe specific arch.\n\nSigned-off-by: Tejun Heo \u003ctj@kernel.org\u003e\nGuess-its-ok-by: Christoph Lameter \u003ccl@linux-foundation.org\u003e\nCc: Ingo Molnar \u003cmingo@redhat.com\u003e\nCc: Lee Schermerhorn \u003cLee.Schermerhorn@hp.com\u003e\n"

      "message": "mm: fix PageUptodate data race\n\nAfter running SetPageUptodate, preceeding stores to the page contents to\nactually bring it uptodate may not be ordered with the store to set the\npage uptodate.\n\nTherefore, another CPU which checks PageUptodate is true, then reads the\npage contents can get stale data.\n\nFix this by having an smp_wmb before SetPageUptodate, and smp_rmb after\nPageUptodate.\n\nMany places that test PageUptodate, do so with the page locked, and this\nwould be enough to ensure memory ordering in those places if\nSetPageUptodate were only called while the page is locked.  Unfortunately\nthat is not always the case for some filesystems, but it could be an idea\nfor the future.\n\nAlso bring the handling of anonymous page uptodateness in line with that of\nfile backed page management, by marking anon pages as uptodate when they\n_are_ uptodate, rather than when our implementation requires that they be\nmarked as such.  Doing allows us to get rid of the smp_wmb\u0027s in the page\ncopying functions, which were especially added for anonymous pages for an\nanalogous memory ordering problem.  Both file and anonymous pages are\nhandled with the same barriers.\n\nFAQ:\nQ. Why not do this in flush_dcache_page?\nA. Firstly, flush_dcache_page handles only one side (the smb side) of the\nordering protocol; we\u0027d still need smp_rmb somewhere. Secondly, hiding away\nmemory barriers in a completely unrelated function is nasty; at least in the\nPageUptodate macros, they are located together with (half) the operations\ninvolved in the ordering. Thirdly, the smp_wmb is only required when first\nbringing the page uptodate, wheras flush_dcache_page should be called each time\nit is written to through the kernel mapping. It is logically the wrong place to\nput it.\n\nQ. Why does this increase my text size / reduce my performance / etc.\nA. Because it is adding the necessary instructions to eliminate the data-race.\n\nQ. Can it be improved?\nA. Yes, eg. if you were to create a rule that all SetPageUptodate operations\nrun under the page lock, we could avoid the smp_rmb places where PageUptodate\nis queried under the page lock. Requires audit of all filesystems and at least\nsome would need reworking.

They have no\nessential function for the VM.\n\nWe use a simple increment of per cpu variables.  In order to avoid the most\nsevere races we disable preempt.  Preempt does not prevent the race between\nan increment and an interrupt handler incrementing the same statistics\ncounter.  However, that race is exceedingly rare, we may only loose one\nincrement or so and there is no requirement (at least not in kernel) that\nthe vm event counters have to be accurate.\n\nIn the non preempt case this results in a simple increment for each\ncounter.  For many architectures this will be reduced by the compiler to a\nsingle instruction.  This single instruction is atomic for i386 and x86_64.\n And therefore even the rare race condition in an interrupt is avoided for\nboth architectures in most cases.\n\nThe patchset also adds an off switch for embedded systems that allows a\nbuilding of linux kernels without these counters.\n\nThe implementation of these counters is through inline code that hopefully\nresults in only a single instruction increment instruction being emitted\n(i386, x86_64) or in the increment being hidden though instruction\nconcurrency (EPIC architectures such as ia64 can get that done).\n\nBenefits:\n- VM event counter operations usually reduce to a single inline instruction\n  on i386 and x86_64.\n- No interrupt disable, only preempt disable for the preempt case.\n  Preempt disable can also be avoided by moving the counter into a spinlock.\n- Handling is similar to zoned VM counters.\n- Simple and easily extendable.\n- Can be omitted to reduce memory use for embedded use.\n\nReferences:\n\nRFC http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l\u003dlinux-kernel\u0026m\u003d113512330605497\u0026w\u003d2\nRFC http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l\u003dlinux-kernel\u0026m\u003d114988082814934\u0026w\u003d2\nlocal_t http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l\u003dlinux-kernel\u0026m\u003d114991748606690\u0026w\u003d2\nV2 http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t\u003d115014808400007\u0026r\u003d1\u0026w\u003d2\nV3 http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l\u003dlinux-kernel\u0026m\u003d115024767022346\u0026w\u003d2\nV4 http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l\u003dlinux-kernel\u0026m\u003d115047968808926\u0026w\u003d2\n\nSigned-off-by: Christoph Lameter \u003cclameter@sgi.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n"

(But even then, page_table_lock is still used to guard page\ntable allocation, and anon_vma allocation.)\n\nIn this implementation, the spinlock is tucked inside the struct page of the\npage table page: with a BUILD_BUG_ON in case it overflows - which it would in\nthe case of 32-bit PA-RISC with spinlock debugging enabled.\n\nSplitting the lock is not quite for free: another cacheline access.  Ideally,\nI suppose we would use split ptlock only for multi-threaded processes on\nmulti-cpu machines; but deciding that dynamically would have its own costs.\nSo for now enable it by config, at some number of cpus - since the Kconfig\nlanguage doesn\u0027t support inequalities, let preprocessor compare that with\nNR_CPUS.
