fs/proc: don't use module_init for non-modular core code

2014-01-24T00:37:02+00:00

PROC_FS is a bool, so this code is either present or absent.  It will
never be modular, so using module_init as an alias for __initcall is
rather misleading.

Fix this up now, so that we can relocate module_init from init.h into
module.h in the future.  If we don't do this, we'd have to add module.h to
obviously non-modular code, and that would be ugly at best.

Note that direct use of __initcall is discouraged, vs.  one of the
priority categorized subgroups.  As __initcall gets mapped onto
device_initcall, our use of fs_initcall (which makes sense for fs code)
will thus change these registrations from level 6-device to level 5-fs
(i.e.  slightly earlier).  However no observable impact of that small
difference has been observed during testing, or is expected.

Also note that this change uncovers a missing semicolon bug in the
registration of vmcore_init as an initcall.

stat: Use size_t for sizes instead of unsigned

2013-02-01T10:32:08+00:00

On some platforms (such as IA64) the large page size may results in
slab allocations to be allowed of numbers that do not fit in 32 bit.

nohz: Fix idle ticks in cpu summary line of /proc/stat

2012-10-10T12:05:21+00:00

Git commit 09a1d34f8535ecf9 "nohz: Make idle/iowait counter update
conditional" introduced a bug in regard to cpu hotplug. The effect is
that the number of idle ticks in the cpu summary line in /proc/stat is
still counting ticks for offline cpus.

Reproduction is easy, just start a workload that keeps all cpus busy,
switch off one or more cpus and then watch the idle field in top.
On a dual-core with one cpu 100% busy and one offline cpu you will get
something like this:

%Cpu(s): 48.7 us,  1.3 sy,  0.0 ni, 50.0 id,  0.0 wa,  0.0 hi,  0.0 si,
%0.0 st

The problem is that an offline cpu still has ts->idle_active == 1.
To fix this we should make sure that the cpu is online when calling
get_cpu_idle_time_us and get_cpu_iowait_time_us.

proc: stats: Use arch_idle_time for idle and iowait times if available

2012-03-30T13:43:33+00:00

Git commit a25cac5198d4ff28 "proc: Consider NO_HZ when printing idle and
iowait times" changes the code for /proc/stat to use get_cpu_idle_time_us
and get_cpu_iowait_time_us if the system is running with nohz enabled.
For architectures which define arch_idle_time (currently s390 only)
this is a change for the worse. The result of arch_idle_time is supposed
to be the exact sleep time of the target cpu and should be used instead
of the value kept by the scheduler.

This patch removes most of calls to vsnprintf() by adding num_to_str()

proc: speed up /proc/stat handling

2012-03-23T23:58:42+00:00

On a typical 16 cpus machine, "cat /proc/stat" gives more than 4096 bytes,
and is slow :

  # strace -T -o /tmp/STRACE cat /proc/stat | wc -c
  5826
  # grep "cpu " /tmp/STRACE
  read(0, "cpu  1949310 19 2144714 12117253"..., 32768) = 5826 <0.001504>

Thats partly because show_stat() must be called twice since initial
buffer size is too small (4096 bytes for less than 32 possible cpus)

Fix this by :

 1) Taking into account nr_irqs in the initial buffer sizing.

 2) Using ksize() to allow better filling of initial buffer.

Commit 3292beb340c7688 ("sched/accounting: Change cpustat fields to an array")
deleted the code which provides us with the sum of all interrupts in the
system, causing vmstat to report zero interrupts occuring in the system.

Fix this by restoring the code.

procfs: do not confuse jiffies with cputime64_t

2011-12-30T00:31:57+00:00

Commit 2a95ea6c0d129b4 ("procfs: do not overflow get_{idle,iowait}_time
for nohz") did not take into account that one some architectures jiffies
and cputime use different units.

This causes get_idle_time() to return numbers in the wrong units, making
the idle time fields in /proc/stat wrong.

Instead of converting the usec value returned by
get_cpu_{idle,iowait}_time_us to units of jiffies, use the new function
usecs_to_cputime64 to convert it to the correct unit of cputime64_t.
