* kernel: delete __cpuinit usage from all core kernel filesPaul Gortmaker2013-07-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time") is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created with improper use of the various __init prefixes. After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone, we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h. This removes all the uses of the __cpuinit macros from C files in the core kernel directories (kernel, init, lib, mm, and include) that don't really have a specific maintainer.

| * slab: fix init_lock_keysChristoph Lameter2013-07-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some architectures (e.g. powerpc built with CONFIG_PPC_256K_PAGES=y CONFIG_FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER=11) get PAGE_SHIFT + MAX_ORDER > 26. In 3.10 kernels, CONFIG_LOCKDEP=y with PAGE_SHIFT + MAX_ORDER > 26 makes init_lock_keys() dereference beyond kmalloc_caches[26]. This leads to an unbootable system (kernel panic at initializing SLAB) if one of kmalloc_caches[26...PAGE_SHIFT+MAX_ORDER-1] is not NULL. Fix this by making sure that init_lock_keys() does not dereference beyond kmalloc_caches[26] arrays.

* memcg: add comments clarifying aspects of cache attribute propagationGlauber Costa2012-12-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch clarifies two aspects of cache attribute propagation. First, the expected context for the for_each_memcg_cache macro in memcontrol.h. The usages already in the codebase are safe. In mm/slub.c, it is trivially safe because the lock is acquired right before the loop. In mm/slab.c, it is less so: the lock is acquired by an outer function a few steps back in the stack, so a VM_BUG_ON() is added to make sure it is indeed safe. A comment is also added to detail why we are returning the value of the parent cache and ignoring the children's when we propagate the attributes.

* slab: propagate tunable valuesGlauber Costa2012-12-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | SLAB allows us to tune a particular cache behavior with tunables. When creating a new memcg cache copy, we'd like to preserve any tunables the parent cache already had. This could be done by an explicit call to do_tune_cpucache() after the cache is created. But this is not very convenient now that the caches are created from common code, since this function is SLAB-specific. Another method of doing that is taking advantage of the fact that do_tune_cpucache() is always called from enable_cpucache(), which is called at cache initialization. We can just preset the values, and then things work as expected. It can also happen that a root cache has its tunables updated during normal system operation. In this case, we will propagate the change to all caches that are already active. This change will require us to move the assignment of root_cache in memcg_params a bit earlier. We need this to be already set - which memcg_kmem_register_cache will do - when we reach __kmem_cache_create() Signed-off-by: Glauber Costa <glommer@parallels.com> Cc: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux.com> Cc: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@redhat.com> Cc: Greg Thelen <gthelen@google.com> Cc: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Cc: JoonSoo Kim <js1304@gmail.com> Cc: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com> Cc: Mel Gorman <mel@csn.ul.ie> Cc: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.cz> Cc: Pekka Enberg <penberg@cs.helsinki.fi> Cc: Rik van Riel <riel@redhat.com> Cc: Suleiman Souhlal <suleiman@google.com> Cc: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

* slab: annotate on-slab caches nodelist locksGlauber Costa2012-12-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We currently provide lockdep annotation for kmalloc caches, and also caches that have SLAB_DEBUG_OBJECTS enabled. The reason for this is that we can quite frequently nest in the l3->list_lock lock, which is not something trivial to avoid. My proposal with this patch, is to extend this to caches whose slab management object lives within the slab as well ("on_slab"). The need for this arose in the context of testing kmemcg-slab patches. With such patchset, we can have per-memcg kmalloc caches. So the same path that led to nesting between kmalloc caches will could then lead to in-memcg nesting. Because they are not annotated, lockdep will trigger.

Increase the size of the array field to ensure that also the node pointers fit into the array field.

* slab: Ignore internal flags in cache creationGlauber Costa2012-10-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some flags are used internally by the allocators for management purposes. One example of that is the CFLGS_OFF_SLAB flag that slab uses to mark that the metadata for that cache is stored outside of the slab. No cache should ever pass those as a creation flags. We can just ignore this bit if it happens to be passed (such as when duplicating a cache in the kmem memcg patches). Because such flags can vary from allocator to allocator, we allow them to make their own decisions on that, defining SLAB_AVAILABLE_FLAGS with all flags that are valid at creation time. Allocators that doesn't have any specific flag requirement should define that to mean all flags. Common code will mask out all flags not belonging to that set.

* mm/sl[au]b: Move print_slabinfo_header to slab_common.cGlauber Costa2012-10-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The header format is highly similar between slab and slub. The main difference lays in the fact that slab may optionally have statistics added here in case of CONFIG_SLAB_DEBUG, while the slub will stick them somewhere else. By making sure that information conditionally lives inside a globally-visible CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB switch, we can move the header printing to a common location.

* mm/sl[au]b: Move slabinfo processing to slab_common.cGlauber Costa2012-10-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch moves all the common machinery to slabinfo processing to slab_common.c. We can do better by noticing that the output is heavily common, and having the allocators to just provide finished information about this. But after this first step, this can be done easier.

On rcu free all slab allocators do not refer to other management structures than the kmem_cache structure. Therefore these other structures can be freed before the rcu deferred free to the page allocator occurs.
