percpu: make percpu symbols under kernel/ and mm/ unique

2009-10-29T13:34:13+00:00

This patch updates percpu related symbols under kernel/ and mm/ such
that percpu symbols are unique and don't clash with local symbols.
This serves two purposes of decreasing the possibility of global
percpu symbol collision and allowing dropping per_cpu__ prefix from
percpu symbols.

* kernel/lockdep.c: s/lock_stats/cpu_lock_stats/

* kernel/sched.c: s/init_rq_rt/init_rt_rq_var/	(any better idea?)

* kernel/softirq.c: s/ksoftirqd/run_ksoftirqd/a

* kernel/softlockup.c: s/(*)_timestamp/softlockup_\1_ts/
  		       s/watchdog_task/softlockup_watchdog/
		       s/timestamp/ts/ for local variables

* kernel/time/timer_stats: s/lookup_lock/tstats_lookup_lock/

* mm/slab.c: s/reap_work/slab_reap_work/
  	     s/reap_node/slab_reap_node/

* mm/vmstat.c: local variable changed to avoid collision with vmstat_work

Partly based on Rusty Russell's "alloc_percpu: rename percpu vars
which cause name clashes" patch.

timer stats: Optimize by adding quick check to avoid function calls

2009-06-24T09:15:09+00:00

When the kernel is configured with CONFIG_TIMER_STATS but timer
stats are runtime disabled we still get calls to
__timer_stats_timer_set_start_info which initializes some
fields in the corresponding struct timer_list.

So add some quick checks in the the timer stats setup functions
to avoid function calls to __timer_stats_timer_set_start_info
when timer stats are disabled.

In an artificial workload that does nothing but playing ping
pong with a single tcp packet via loopback this decreases cpu
consumption by 1 - 1.5%.

This is part of a modified function trace output on SLES11:

kernel: use non-racy method for proc entries creation

2008-04-29T15:06:22+00:00

Use proc_create()/proc_create_data() to make sure that ->proc_fops and ->data
be setup before gluing PDE to main tree.

Fix timer_stats printout of events/sec

2007-10-07T23:28:43+00:00

When using /proc/timer_stats on ppc64 I noticed the events/sec field wasnt
accurate.  Sometimes the integer part was incorrect due to rounding (we
werent taking the fractional seconds into consideration).

The fraction part is also wrong, we need to pad the printf statement and
take the bottom three digits of 1000 times the value.

kallsyms: make KSYM_NAME_LEN include space for trailing '\0'

2007-07-17T17:23:03+00:00

KSYM_NAME_LEN is peculiar in that it does not include the space for the
trailing '\0', forcing all users to use KSYM_NAME_LEN + 1 when allocating
buffer.  This is nonsense and error-prone.  Moreover, when the caller
forgets that it's very likely to subtly bite back by corrupting the stack
because the last position of the buffer is always cleared to zero.

This patch increments KSYM_NAME_LEN by one and updates code accordingly.

* off-by-one bug in asm-powerpc/kprobes.h::kprobe_lookup_name() macro
  is fixed.

* Where MODULE_NAME_LEN and KSYM_NAME_LEN were used together,
  MODULE_NAME_LEN was treated as if it didn't include space for the
  trailing '\0'.  Fix it.

Add a flag to indicate deferrable timers in /proc/timer_stats

2007-07-16T16:05:45+00:00

Add a flag in /proc/timer_stats to indicate deferrable timers.  This will
let developers/users to differentiate between types of tiemrs in
/proc/timer_stats.

Deferrable timer and normal timer will appear in /proc/timer_stats as below.
  10D,     1 swapper          queue_delayed_work_on (delayed_work_timer_fn)
   10,     1 swapper          queue_delayed_work_on (delayed_work_timer_fn)

Also version of timer_stats changes from v0.1 to v0.2
