Currently, iw_cxgb3 is severely limited on the amount of userspace memory that can be registered in in a single memory region, which causes big problems for applications that expect to be able to register 100s of MB. The problem is that the driver uses a single kmalloc()ed buffer to hold the physical buffer list (PBL) for the entire memory region during registration, which means that 8 bytes of contiguous memory are required for each page of memory being registered. For example, a 64 MB registration will require 128 KB of contiguous memory with 4 KB pages, and it unlikely that such an allocation will succeed on a busy system. This is purely a driver problem: the temporary page list buffer is not needed by the hardware, so we can fix this by writing the PBL to the hardware in page-sized chunks rather than all at once. We do this by splitting the memory registration operation up into several steps: - Allocate PBL space in adapter memory for the full registration - Copy PBL to adapter memory in chunks - Allocate STag and enable memory region This also allows several other cleanups to the __cxio_tpt_op() interface and related parts of the driver. This change leaves the reregister memory region and memory window operations broken, but they already didn't work due to other longstanding bugs, so fixing them will be left to a later patch.

Current iw_cxgb3 code adds PBL memory to the driver's gen_pool in 2 MB chunks. This limits the largest single allocation that can be done to the same size, which means that with 4 KB pages, each of which takes 8 bytes of PBL memory, the largest memory region that can be allocated is 1 GB (256K PBL entries * 4 KB/entry). Remove this limit by adding all the PBL memory in a single gen_pool chunk, if possible. Add code that falls back to smaller chunks if gen_pool_add() fails, which can happen if there is not sufficient contiguous lowmem for the internal gen_pool bitmap.

this replaces the rq->clock stuff (and possibly cpu_clock()). - architectures that have an 'imperfect' hardware clock can set CONFIG_HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK - the 'jiffie' window might be superfulous when we update tick_gtod before the __update_sched_clock() call in sched_clock_tick() - cpu_clock() might be implemented as: sched_clock_cpu(smp_processor_id()) if the accuracy proves good enough - how far can TSC drift in a single jiffie when considering the filtering and idle hooks?

Ingo Molnar authored
David Miller pointed it out that nothing in cpu_clock() sets prev_cpu_time. This caused __sync_cpu_clock() to be called all the time - against the intention of this code. The result was that in practice we hit a global spinlock every time cpu_clock() is called - which - even though cpu_clock() is used for tracing and debugging, is suboptimal. While at it, also: - move the irq disabling to the outest layer, this should make cpu_clock() warp-free when called with irqs enabled. - use long long instead of cycles_t - for platforms where cycles_t is 32-bit.

When I echoed 0 into the "cpu.shares" file, a Div0 error occured. We found it is caused by the following calling. sched_group_set_shares(tg, shares) set_se_shares(tg->se[i], shares/nr_cpu_ids) __set_se_shares(se, shares) div64_64((1ULL<<32), shares) When the echoed value was less than the number of processores, the result of the sentence "shares/nr_cpu_ids" was 0, and then the system called div64() to divide the result, the Div0 error occured. It is unnecessary that the shares value is divided by nr_cpu_ids, I think. Because in the function __update_group_shares_cpu() and init_tg_cfs_entry(), the shares value isn't divided by nr_cpu_ids when setting shares of the sched entity. This patch fixes this bug. And echoing ULONG_MAX value into cpu.shares also causes Div0 error, so we set a macro MAX_SHARES to limit the max value of shares.

Concurrent calls to detach_destroy_domains and arch_init_sched_domains were prevented by the old scheduler subsystem cpu hotplug mutex. When this got converted to get_online_cpus() the locking got broken. Unlike before now several processes can concurrently enter the critical sections that were protected by the old lock. So use the already present doms_cur_mutex to protect these sections again.

We currently use an optimization to skip the overhead of wake-idle processing if more than one task is assigned to a run-queue. The assumption is that the system must already be load-balanced or we wouldnt be overloaded to begin with. The problem is that we are looking at rq->nr_running, which may include RT tasks in addition to CFS tasks. Since the presence of RT tasks really has no bearing on the balance status of CFS tasks, this throws the calculation off. This patch changes the logic to only consider the number of CFS tasks when making the decision to optimze the wake-idle.

Dmitry Adamushko pointed out a logic error in task_wake_up_rt() where we will always evaluate to "true". You can find the thread here: http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/4/22/296 In reality, we only want to try to push tasks away when a wake up request is not going to preempt the current task. So lets fix it. Note: We introduce test_tsk_need_resched() instead of open-coding the flag check so that the merge-conflict with -rt should help remind us that we may need to support NEEDS_RESCHED_DELAYED in the future, too.
