Fairly small update, but there are some interesting new features.
Common: Optional support for adding a small amount of polling on each HLT
instruction executed in the guest (or equivalent for other architectures).
This can improve latency up to 50% on some scenarios (e.g. O_DSYNC writes
or TCP_RR netperf tests). This also has to be enabled manually for now,
but the plan is to auto-tune this in the future.
ARM/ARM64: the highlights are support for GICv3 emulation and dirty page
tracking
s390: several optimizations and bugfixes. Also a first: a feature
exposed by KVM (UUID and long guest name in /proc/sysinfo) before
it is available in IBM's hypervisor! :)
MIPS: Bugfixes.
x86: Support for PML (page modification logging, a new feature in
Broadwell Xeons that speeds up dirty page tracking), nested virtualization
improvements (nested APICv---a nice optimization), usual round of emulation
fixes. There is also a new option to reduce latency of the TSC deadline
timer in the guest; this needs to be tuned manually.
Some commits are common between this pull and Catalin's; I see you
have already included his tree.
ARM has other conflicts where functions are added in the same place
by 3.19-rc and 3.20 patches. These are not large though, and entirely
within KVM.

The updates included in this pull request for ftrace are:
o Several clean ups to the code
One such clean up was to convert to 64 bit time keeping, in the
ring buffer benchmark code.
o Adding of __print_array() helper macro for TRACE_EVENT()
o Updating the sample/trace_events/ to add samples of different ways to
make trace events. Lots of features have been added since the sample
code was made, and these features are mostly unknown. Developers
have been making their own hacks to do things that are already available.
o Performance improvements. Most notably, I found a performance bug where
a waiter that is waiting for a full page from the ring buffer will
see that a full page is not available, and go to sleep. The sched
event caused by it going to sleep would cause it to wake up again.
It would see that there was still not a full page, and go back to sleep
again, and that would wake it up again, until finally it would see a
full page. This change has been marked for stable.
Other improvements include removing global locks from fast paths.

mm: when stealing freepages, also take pages created by splitting buddy page
When studying page stealing, I noticed some weird looking decisions in
try_to_steal_freepages(). The first I assume is a bug (Patch 1), the
following two patches were driven by evaluation.
Testing was done with stress-highalloc of mmtests, using the
mm_page_alloc_extfrag tracepoint and postprocessing to get counts of how
often page stealing occurs for individual migratetypes, and what
migratetypes are used for fallbacks. Arguably, the worst case of page
stealing is when UNMOVABLE allocation steals from MOVABLE pageblock.
RECLAIMABLE allocation stealing from MOVABLE allocation is also not ideal,
so the goal is to minimize these two cases.
The evaluation of v2 wasn't always clear win and Joonsoo questioned the
results. Here I used different baseline which includes RFC compaction
improvements from [1]. I found that the compaction improvements reduce
variability of stress-highalloc, so there's less noise in the data.
First, let's look at stress-highalloc configured to do sync compaction,
and how these patches reduce page stealing events during the test. First
column is after fresh reboot, other two are reiterations of test without
reboot. That was all accumulater over 5 re-iterations (so the benchmark
was run 5x3 times with 5 fresh restarts).

Extfrag fragmenting for movable 5013576 4695266 3845887
In v2 we've seen apparent regression with Patch 1 for unmovable events,
this is now gone, suggesting it was indeed noise. Here, each patch
improves the situation for unmovable events. Reclaimable is improved by
patch 1 and then either the same modulo noise, or perhaps sligtly worse -
a small price for unmovable improvements, IMHO. The number of movable
allocations falling back to other migratetypes is most noisy, but it's
reduced to half at Patch 2 nevertheless. These are least critical as
compaction can move them around.
If we look at success rates, the patches don't affect them, that didn't change.

As with v2, /proc/pagetypeinfo appears unaffected with respect to numbers
of unmovable and reclaimable pageblocks.
Configuring the benchmark to allocate like THP page fault (i.e. no sync
compaction) gives much noisier results for iterations 2 and 3 after
reboot. This is not so surprising given how [1] offers lower improvements
in this scenario due to less restarts after deferred compaction which
would change compaction pivot.

The improvements for first iteration are clear, the rest is much noisier
and can appear like regression for Patch 1. Anyway, patch 2 rectifies it.
Allocation success rates are again unaffected so there's no point in
making this e-mail any longer.

This patch (of 3):
When __rmqueue_fallback() is called to allocate a page of order X, it will
find a page of order Y >= X of a fallback migratetype, which is different
from the desired migratetype. With the help of try_to_steal_freepages(),
it may change the migratetype (to the desired one) also of:
1) all currently free pages in the pageblock containing the fallback page
2) the fallback pageblock itself
3) buddy pages created by splitting the fallback page (when Y > X)
These decisions take the order Y into account, as well as the desired
migratetype, with the goal of preventing multiple fallback allocations
that could e.g. distribute UNMOVABLE allocations among multiple
pageblocks.
Originally, decision for 1) has implied the decision for 3). Commit

mm/compaction: add tracepoint to observe behaviour of compaction defer
Compaction deferring logic is heavy hammer that block the way to the compaction. It doesn't consider overall system state, so it could prevent user from doing compaction falsely. In other words, even if system has enough range of memory to compact, compaction would be skipped due to compaction deferring logic. This patch add new tracepoint to understand work of deferring logic. This will also help to check compaction success and fail.

mm/compaction: enhance tracepoint output for compaction begin/end
We now have tracepoint for begin event of compaction and it prints start position of both scanners, but, tracepoint for end event of compaction doesn't print finish position of both scanners. It'd be also useful to know finish position of both scanners so this patch add it. It will help to find odd behavior or problem on compaction internal logic. And mode is added to both begin/end tracepoint output, since according to mode, compaction behavior is quite different.

mm/compaction: change tracepoint format from decimal to hexadecimal
To check the range that compaction is working, tracepoint print start/end pfn of zone and start pfn of both scanner with decimal format. Since we manage all pages in order of 2 and it is well represented by hexadecimal, this patch change the tracepoint format from decimal to hexadecimal. This would improve readability. For example, it makes us easily notice whether current scanner try to compact previously attempted pageblock or not.

f2fs: split UMOUNT and FASTBOOT flags
This patch adds FASTBOOT flag into checkpoint as follows. - CP_UMOUNT_FLAG is set when system is umounted. - CP_FASTBOOT_FLAG is set when intermediate checkpoint having node summaries was done. So, if you get CP_UMOUNT_FLAG from checkpoint, the system was umounted cleanly. Instead, if there was sudden-power-off, you can get CP_FASTBOOT_FLAG or nothing.

f2fs: merge flags in struct f2fs_sb_info
Currently, there are several variables with Boolean type as below:
struct f2fs_sb_info {
...
int s_dirty;
bool need_fsck;
bool s_closing;
...
bool por_doing;
...
}
For this there are some issues:
1. there are some space of f2fs_sb_info is wasted due to aligning after Boolean
type variables by compiler.
2. if we continuously add new flag into f2fs_sb_info, structure will be messed
up.
So in this patch, we try to:
1. switch s_dirty to Boolean type variable since it has two status 0/1.
2. merge s_dirty/need_fsck/s_closing/por_doing variables into s_flag.
3. introduce an enum type which can indicate different states of sbi.
4. use new introduced universal interfaces is_sbi_flag_set/{set,clear}_sbi_flag
to operate flags for sbi.
After that, above issues will be fixed.

During testing Sedat Dilek hit a "suspicious RCU usage" splat that pointed
out a real bug. During suspend and resume the tlb_flush tracepoint is called when the CPU is going offline. As the CPU has been noted as offline, RCU is ignoring that CPU, which means that it can not use RCU protected locks. When tracepoints are activated, they require RCU locking, and if RCU is ignoring a CPU that runs a tracepoint, there is a chance that the tracepoint could cause corruption. The solution was to change the tracepoint into a TRACE_EVENT_CONDITION() which allows us to check a condition to determine if the tracepoint should be called or not. If the condition is not met, the rcu protected code will not be executed. By adding the condition "cpu_online(smp_processor_id())", this will prevent the RCU protected code from being executed if the CPU is marked offline. After adding this, another bug was discovered. As RCU checks rcu callers, if a rcu call is not done, there is no check (obviously). We found that tracepoints could be added in RCU ignored locations and not have lockdep complain until the tracepoint is activated. This missed places where tracepoints were added in places they should not have been. To fix this, code was added in 3.18 that if lockdep is enabled, any tracepoint will still call the rcu checks even if the tracepoint is not enabled. The bug here, is that the check does not take the CONDITION into account. As the condition may prevent tracepoints from being activated in RCU ignored areas (as the one patch does), we get false positives when we enable lockdep and hit a tracepoint that the condition prevents it from being called in a RCU ignored location. The fix for this is to add the CONDITION to the rcu checks, even if the tracepoint is not enabled. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iQEcBAABAgAGBQJU1rQfAAoJEEjnJuOKh9ld19UH/juFLZFjpYBgtRmbCZa/54Zk i2Fa3U8jQe8MHHEYOjCLT9MQTYo/42btmJhr7kWKtIoUgDEli4lkOpbs+H0qar5y Vv9+1cLeNFQzgIE3nwV7cjAw7Jufoyzd1lstDqIQvcmzZnQ5sNyyVeigMcxGv8Ls 4FyqzG6zCVgiDL4LyYNHdNcMr6qLs3KTFDEqp+kQreeO7R1r3ZEpq3JoWaEUgoPP qrYv/rqVosLBUGA0pd7RmiGOxhjeKm15qz1GkiPeeus6DDWC6bvPC8cAc/FfkXH0 hYpoQghSZVnXGy0LzVsd44gj7tYx1FHEpYy1s8G6d5WJcNOGZ6OoZOdOZMyjPVw= =PeL2 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'trace-fixes-v3.19-rc7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace Pull ftrace fixes from Steven Rostedt: "During testing Sedat Dilek hit a "suspicious RCU usage" splat that pointed out a real bug.

x86/tlb/trace: Do not trace on CPU that is offline
When taking a CPU down for suspend and resume, a tracepoint may be called
when the CPU has been designated offline. As tracepoints require RCU for
protection, they must not be called if the current CPU is offline.
Unfortunately, trace_tlb_flush() is called in this scenario as was noted
by LOCKDEP:

kvm: add halt_poll_ns module parameter
This patch introduces a new module parameter for the KVM module; when it is present, KVM attempts a bit of polling on every HLT before scheduling itself out via kvm_vcpu_block. This parameter helps a lot for latency-bound workloads---in particular I tested it with O_DSYNC writes with a battery-backed disk in the host. In this case, writes are fast (because the data doesn't have to go all the way to the platters) but they cannot be merged by either the host or the guest. KVM's performance here is usually around 30% of bare metal, or 50% if you use cache=directsync or cache=writethrough (these parameters avoid that the guest sends pointless flush requests, and at the same time they are not slow because of the battery-backed cache). The bad performance happens because on every halt the host CPU decides to halt itself too. When the interrupt comes, the vCPU thread is then migrated to a new physical CPU, and in general the latency is horrible because the vCPU thread has to be scheduled back in. With this patch performance reaches 60-65% of bare metal and, more important, 99% of what you get if you use idle=poll in the guest. This means that the tunable gets rid of this particular bottleneck, and more work can be done to improve performance in the kernel or QEMU. Of course there is some price to pay; every time an otherwise idle vCPUs is interrupted by an interrupt, it will poll unnecessarily and thus impose a little load on the host. The above results were obtained with a mostly random value of the parameter (500000), and the load was around 1.5-2.5% CPU usage on one of the host's core for each idle guest vCPU. The patch also adds a new stat, /sys/kernel/debug/kvm/halt_successful_poll, that can be used to tune the parameter. It counts how many HLT instructions received an interrupt during the polling period; each successful poll avoids that Linux schedules the VCPU thread out and back in, and may also avoid a likely trip to C1 and back for the physical CPU. While the VM is idle, a Linux 4 VCPU VM halts around 10 times per second. Of these halts, almost all are failed polls. During the benchmark, instead, basically all halts end within the polling period, except a more or less constant stream of 50 per second coming from vCPUs that are not running the benchmark. The wasted time is thus very low. Things may be slightly different for Windows VMs, which have a ~10 ms timer tick. The effect is also visible on Marcelo's recently-introduced latency test for the TSC deadline timer. Though of course a non-RT kernel has awful latency bounds, the latency of the timer is around 8000-10000 clock cycles compared to 20000-120000 without setting halt_poll_ns. For the TSC deadline timer, thus, the effect is both a smaller average latency and a smaller variance. Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> |

tracing: Add array printing helper
If a trace event contains an array, there is currently no standard
way to format this for text output. Drivers are currently hacking
around this by a) local hacks that use the trace_seq functionailty
directly, or b) just not printing that information. For fixed size
arrays, formatting of the elements can be open-coded, but this gets
cumbersome for arrays of non-trivial size.
These approaches result in non-standard content of the event format
description delivered to userspace, so userland tools needs to be
taught to understand and parse each array printing method
individually.
This patch implements a __print_array() helper that tracepoint
implementations can use instead of reinventing it. A simple C-style
syntax is used to delimit the array and its elements {like,this}.
So that the helpers can be used with large static arrays as well as
dynamic arrays, they take a pointer and element count: they can be
used with __get_dynamic_array() for use with dynamic arrays.

fs: remove default_backing_dev_info
Now that default_backing_dev_info is not used for writeback purposes we can git rid of it easily: - instead of using it's name for tracing unregistered bdi we just use "unknown" - btrfs and ceph can just assign the default read ahead window themselves like several other filesystems already do. - we can assign noop_backing_dev_info as the default one in alloc_super.

iommu: Change trace unmap api to report unmapped size
Currently map and unmap are implemented as events under a common trace class declaration. The common class forces trace_unmap() to require a bogus physical address argument that it doesn't use. Changing unmap to report unmapped size will provide useful information for debugging. Remove common map_unmap trace class and change map and unmap into separate events as opposed to events under the same class to allow for differences in the reporting information. In addition, map and unmap are changed to handle size value as size_t instead of int to match the passed size value and avoid overflow.

perf: Avoid horrible stack usage
Both Linus (most recent) and Steve (a while ago) reported that perf related callbacks have massive stack bloat. The problem is that software events need a pt_regs in order to properly report the event location and unwind stack. And because we could not assume one was present we allocated one on stack and filled it with minimal bits required for operation. Now, pt_regs is quite large, so this is undesirable. Furthermore it turns out that most sites actually have a pt_regs pointer available, making this even more onerous, as the stack space is pointless waste. This patch addresses the problem by observing that software events have well defined nesting semantics, therefore we can use static per-cpu storage instead of on-stack. Linus made the further observation that all but the scheduler callers of perf_sw_event() have a pt_regs available, so we change the regular perf_sw_event() to require a valid pt_regs (where it used to be optional) and add perf_sw_event_sched() for the scheduler. We have a scheduler specific call instead of a more generic _noregs() like construct because we can assume non-recursion from the scheduler and thereby simplify the code further (_noregs would have to put the recursion context call inline in order to assertain which __perf_regs element to use). One last note on the implementation of perf_trace_buf_prepare(); we allow .regs = NULL for those cases where we already have a pt_regs pointer available and do not need another.

sound updates for 3.19-rc1
This became a fairly large pull request. In addition to the usual
driver updates / fixes, there have been a high amount of cleanups in
ASoC area, as well as control API helpers and kernel documentations
fixes touching through the whole tree.
In the driver side, the biggest changes are the support for new Intel
SoC found on new x86 machines, and the updates of FireWire dice and
oxfw drivers.
Some remarkable items are below:
* ALSA core
- PCM mmap code cleanup, removal of arch-dependent codes
- PCM xrun injection support
- PCM hwptr tracepoint support
- Refactoring of snd_pcm_action(), simplification of PCM locking
- Robustified sequecner auto-load functionality
- New control API helpers and lots of cleanups along with them
- Lots of kerneldoc fixes and cleanups
* USB-audio
- The mixer resume code was largely rewritten, and the devices with
quirks are resumed properly.
- New hardware support: Focusrite Scarlett, Digidesign Mbox1,

There was a lot of clean ups and minor fixes. One of those clean ups was
to the trace_seq code. It also removed the return values to the
trace_seq_*() functions and use trace_seq_has_overflowed() to see if
the buffer filled up or not. This is similar to work being done to the
seq_file code as well in another tree.
Some of the other goodies include:
o Added some "!" (NOT) logic to the tracing filter.
o Fixed the frame pointer logic to the x86_64 mcount trampolines
o Added the logic for dynamic trampolines on !CONFIG_PREEMPT systems.
That is, the ftrace trampoline can be dynamically allocated
and be called directly by functions that only have a single hook
to them.

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The main changes in this cycle are:
- 'Nested Sleep Debugging', activated when CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP=y.
This instruments might_sleep() checks to catch places that nest
blocking primitives - such as mutex usage in a wait loop. Such
bugs can result in hard to debug races/hangs.
Another category of invalid nesting that this facility will detect
is the calling of blocking functions from within schedule() ->
sched_submit_work() -> blk_schedule_flush_plug().
There's some potential for false positives (if secondary blocking
primitives themselves are not ready yet for this facility), but the
kernel will warn once about such bugs per bootup, so the warning
isn't much of a nuisance.
This feature comes with a number of fixes, for problems uncovered
with it, so no messages are expected normally.
- Another round of sched/numa optimizations and refinements, for
CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING=y.
- Another round of sched/dl fixes and refinements.
Plus various smaller fixes and cleanups"

sunrpc: convert to lockless lookup of queued server threads
Testing has shown that the pool->sp_lock can be a bottleneck on a busy server. Every time data is received on a socket, the server must take that lock in order to dequeue a thread from the sp_threads list. Address this problem by eliminating the sp_threads list (which contains threads that are currently idle) and replacing it with a RQ_BUSY flag in svc_rqst. This allows us to walk the sp_all_threads list under the rcu_read_lock and find a suitable thread for the xprt by doing a test_and_set_bit. Note that we do still have a potential atomicity problem however with this approach. We don't want svc_xprt_do_enqueue to set the rqst->rq_xprt pointer unless a test_and_set_bit of RQ_BUSY returned zero (which indicates that the thread was idle). But, by the time we check that, the bit could be flipped by a waking thread. To address this, we acquire a new per-rqst spinlock (rq_lock) and take that before doing the test_and_set_bit. If that returns false, then we can set rq_xprt and drop the spinlock. Then, when the thread wakes up, it must set the bit under the same spinlock and can trust that if it was already set then the rq_xprt is also properly set. With this scheme, the case where we have an idle thread no longer needs to take the highly contended pool->sp_lock at all, and that removes the bottleneck. That still leaves one issue: What of the case where we walk the whole sp_all_threads list and don't find an idle thread? Because the search is lockess, it's possible for the queueing to race with a thread that is going to sleep. To address that, we queue the xprt and then search again. If we find an idle thread at that point, we can't attach the xprt to it directly since that might race with a different thread waking up and finding it. All we can do is wake the idle thread back up and let it attempt to find the now-queued xprt.
