2014-07-12Documentation/Changes: clean up mcelog paragraphPaul Bolle
The paragraph on mcelog currently describes kernel v2.6.31. In that kernel the mce code (for i386, that is) was in transition. Ever since v2.6.32 the situation is much simpler (eg, mcelog is now needed to process events on almost all x86 machines, i386 and x86-64). Since this "document is designed to provide a list of the minimum levels of software necessary to run the 3.0 kernels" let's just describe that situation.

We are seeing a lot of PMU warnings on POWER8: Can't find PMC that caused IRQ Looking closer, the active PMC is 0 at this point and we took a PMU exception on the transition from negative to 0. Some versions of POWER8 have an issue where they edge detect and not level detect PMC overflows. A number of places program the PMC with (0x80000000 - period_left), where period_left can be negative. We can either fix all of these or just ensure that period_left is always >= 1. This patch takes the second option.

2014-07-11powerpc/perf: Clear MMCR2 when enabling PMUJoel Stanley
On POWER8 when switching to a KVM guest we set bits in MMCR2 to freeze the PMU counters. Aside from on boot they are then never reset, resulting in stuck perf counters for any user in the guest or host. We now set MMCR2 to 0 whenever enabling the PMU, which provides a sane state for perf to use the PMU counters under either the guest or the host. This was manifesting as a bug with ppc64_cpu --frequency: $ sudo ppc64_cpu --frequency WARNING: couldn't run on cpu 0 WARNING: couldn't run on cpu 8 ... WARNING: couldn't run on cpu 144 WARNING: couldn't run on cpu 152 min: 18446744073.710 GHz (cpu -1) max: 0.000 GHz (cpu -1) avg: 0.000 GHz The command uses a perf counter to measure CPU cycles over a fixed amount of time, in order to approximate the frequency of the machine. The counters were returning zero once a guest was started, regardless of weather it was still running or had been shut down. By dumping the value of MMCR2, it was observed that once a guest is running MMCR2 is set to 1s - which stops counters from running: $ sudo sh -c 'echo p > /proc/sysrq-trigger' CPU: 0 PMU registers, ppmu = POWER8 n_counters = 6 PMC1: 5b635e38 PMC2: 00000000 PMC3: 00000000 PMC4: 00000000 PMC5: 1bf5a646 PMC6: 5793d378 PMC7: deadbeef PMC8: deadbeef MMCR0: 0000000080000000 MMCR1: 000000001e000000 MMCRA: 0000040000000000 MMCR2: fffffffffffffc00 EBBHR: 0000000000000000 EBBRR: 0000000000000000 BESCR: 0000000000000000 SIAR: 00000000000a51cc SDAR: c00000000fc40000 SIER: 0000000001000000 This is done unconditionally in book3s_hv_interrupts.S upon entering the guest, and the original value is only save/restored if the host has indicated it was using the PMU.

2014-07-11powerpc/kvm: Remove redundant save of SIER AND MMCR2Joel Stanley
These two registers are already saved in the block above. Aside from being unnecessary, by the time we get down to the second save location r8 no longer contains MMCR2, so we are clobbering the saved value with PMC5. MMCR2 primarily consists of counter freeze bits. So restoring the value of PMC5 into MMCR2 will most likely have the effect of freezing counters.

2014-07-11powerpc/powernv: Check for IRQHAPPENED before sleepingPreeti U Murthy
Commit 8d6f7c5a: "powerpc/powernv: Make it possible to skip the IRQHAPPENED check in power7_nap()" added code that prevents cpus from checking for pending interrupts just before entering sleep state, which is wrong. These interrupts are delivered during the soft irq disabled state of the cpu. A cpu cannot enter any idle state with pending interrupts because they will never be serviced until the next time the cpu is woken up by some other interrupt. Its only then that the pending interrupts are replayed. This can result in device timeouts or warnings about this cpu being stuck. This patch fixes ths issue by ensuring that cpus check for pending interrupts just before entering any idle state as long as they are not in the path of split core operations.

Relying on static functions used just once to get inlined (and subsequently have dead code paths eliminated) is wrong: Compilers are free to decide whether they do this, regardless of optimization level. With this not happening for vdso_addr() (observed with gcc 4.1.x), an unresolved reference to align_vdso_addr() causes the build to fail.

2014-07-10dm mpath: fix IO hang due to logic bug in multipath_busyJun'ichi Nomura
Commit e80991773 ("dm mpath: push back requests instead of queueing") modified multipath_busy() to return true if !pg_ready(). pg_ready() checks the current state of the multipath device and may return false even if a new IO is needed to change the state. Bart Van Assche reported that he had multipath IO lockup when he was performing cable pull tests. Analysis showed that the multipath device had a single path group with both paths active, but that the path group itself was not active. During the multipath device state transitions 'queue_io' got set but nothing could clear it. Clearing 'queue_io' only happens in __choose_pgpath(), but it won't be called if multipath_busy() returns true due to pg_ready() returning false when 'queue_io' is set. As such the !pg_ready() check in multipath_busy() is wrong because new IO will not be sent to multipath target and the multipath state change won't happen. That results in multipath IO lockup. The intent of multipath_busy() is to avoid unnecessary cycles of dequeue + request_fn + requeue if it is known that the multipath device will requeue. Such "busy" situations would be: - path group is being activated - there is no path and the multipath is setup to requeue if no path Fix multipath_busy() to return "busy" early only for these specific situations.

2014-07-10dm: allocate a special workqueue for deferred device removalMikulas Patocka
The commit 2c140a246dc ("dm: allow remove to be deferred") introduced a deferred removal feature for the device mapper. When this feature is used (by passing a flag DM_DEFERRED_REMOVE to DM_DEV_REMOVE_CMD ioctl) and the user tries to remove a device that is currently in use, the device will be removed automatically in the future when the last user closes it. Device mapper used the system workqueue to perform deferred removals. However, some targets (dm-raid1, dm-mpath, dm-stripe) flush work items scheduled for the system workqueue from their destructor. If the destructor itself is called from the system workqueue during deferred removal, it introduces a possible deadlock - the workqueue tries to flush itself. Fix this possible deadlock by introducing a new workqueue for deferred removals. We allocate just one workqueue for all dm targets. The ability of dm targets to process IOs isn't dependent on deferred removal of unused targets, so a deadlock due to shared workqueue isn't possible. Also, cleanup local_init() to eliminate potential for returning success on failure.

2014-07-09f2fs: check bdi->dirty_exceeded when trying to skip data writesJaegeuk Kim
If we don't check the current backing device status, balance_dirty_pages can fall into infinite pausing routine. This can be occurred when a lot of directories make a small number of dirty dentry pages including files.

2014-07-09f2fs: do checkpoint for the renamed inodeJaegeuk Kim
If an inode is renamed, it should be registered as file_lost_pino to conduct checkpoint at f2fs_sync_file. Otherwise, the inode cannot be recovered due to no dent_mark in the following scenario. Note that, this scenario is from xfstests/322. 1. create "a" 2. fsync "a" 3. rename "a" to "b" 4. fsync "b" 5. Sudden power-cut After recovery is done, "b" should be seen. However, the result shows "a", since the recovery procedure does not enter recover_dentry due to no dent_mark. The reason is like below. - The nid of "a" is checkpointed during #2, f2fs_sync_file. - The inode page for "b" produced by #3 is written without dent_mark by sync_node_pages. So, this patch fixes this bug by assinging file_lost_pino to the "a"'s inode. If the pino is lost, f2fs_sync_file conducts checkpoint, and then recovers the latest pino and its dentry information for further recovery. Signed-off-by: Jaegeuk Kim <jaegeuk@kernel.org>

If we fail in this path: ->init_inode_metadata ->make_empty_dir ->get_new_data_page ->grab_cache_page return -ENOMEM We will bug on in error path of init_inode_metadata when call remove_inode_page because i_block = 2 (one inode block will be released later & one dentry block). We should release the dentry block in init_inode_metadata to avoid this BUG_ON, and avoid leak of dentry block resource, because we never have second chance to release that block in ->evict_inode as in upper error path we make this inode 'bad'.
