The read fail ratio is sensitive to the delay between the first byte written and the first byte read; apparently the sensors cannot be rushed. Increasing the minimum wait time, without changing the total wait time, improves the fail ratio from a 8% chance that any of the sensors fails in one read, down to 0.4%, on a Macbook Air. On a Macbook Pro 3,1, the effect is even more apparent. By reducing the number of status polls, the ratio is further improved to below 0.1%. Finally, increasing the total wait time brings the fail ratio down to virtually zero.

The time to wait for a status change while reading or writing to the SMC ports is a balance between read reliability and system performance. The current setting yields rougly three errors in a thousand when simultaneously reading three different temperature values on a Macbook Air. This patch increases the setting to a value yielding roughly one error in ten thousand, with no noticable system performance degradation.

On many Macbooks since mid 2007, the Pro, C2D and Air models, applesmc fails to read some or all SMC ports. This problem has various effects, such as flooded logfiles, malfunctioning temperature sensors, accelerometers failing to initialize, and difficulties getting backlight functionality to work properly. The root of the problem seems to be the command protocol. The current code sends out a command byte, then repeatedly polls for an ack before continuing to send or recieve data. From experiments leading to this patch, it seems the command protocol never quite worked or changed so that one now sends a command byte, waits a little bit, polls for an ack, and if it fails, repeats the whole thing by sending the command byte again. This patch implements a send_command function according to the new interpretation of the protocol, and should work also for earlier models.

Bring hwmon/pc87360 into agreement with Documentation/hwmon/sysfs-interface. Patchset adds separate limit alarms for voltages and temps, it also adds temp[123]_fault files. On my Soekris, temps 1,2 are unused/unconnected, so temp[123]_fault = 1,1,0 respectively. This agrees with /usr/bin/sensors, which has always shown them as OPEN. Temps 4,5,6 are thermistor based, and dont have a fault bit in their status register. This patch: 2 different kinds of constants added: - CHAN_ALM_* constants for (later) vin, temp alarm callbacks. - CHAN_* conversion constants, used in _init_device, partly for RW1C bits Signed-off-by: Jim Cromie <jim.cromie@gmail.com> Cc: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org> Cc: "Mark M.

Don't let frozen tasks or cgroups change. This means frozen tasks can't leave their current cgroup for another cgroup. It also means that tasks cannot be added to or removed from a cgroup in the FROZEN state. We enforce these rules by checking for frozen tasks and cgroups in the can_attach() function.

This patch implements a new freezer subsystem in the control groups framework. It provides a way to stop and resume execution of all tasks in a cgroup by writing in the cgroup filesystem. The freezer subsystem in the container filesystem defines a file named freezer.state. Writing "FROZEN" to the state file will freeze all tasks in the cgroup. Subsequently writing "RUNNING" will unfreeze the tasks in the cgroup. Reading will return the current state. * Examples of usage : # mkdir /containers/freezer # mount -t cgroup -ofreezer freezer /containers # mkdir /containers/0 # echo $some_pid > /containers/0/tasks to get status of the freezer subsystem : # cat /containers/0/freezer.state RUNNING to freeze all tasks in the container : # echo FROZEN > /containers/0/freezer.state # cat /containers/0/freezer.state FREEZING # cat /containers/0/freezer.state FROZEN to unfreeze all tasks in the container : # echo RUNNING > /containers/0/freezer.state # cat /containers/0/freezer.state RUNNING This is the basic mechanism which should do the right thing for user space task in a simple scenario. It's important to note that freezing can be incomplete. In that case we return EBUSY. This means that some tasks in the cgroup are busy doing something that prevents us from completely freezing the cgroup at this time. After EBUSY, the cgroup will remain partially frozen -- reflected by freezer.state reporting "FREEZING" when read. The state will remain "FREEZING" until one of these things happens: 1) Userspace cancels the freezing operation by writing "RUNNING" to the freezer.state file 2) Userspace retries the freezing operation by writing "FROZEN" to the freezer.state file (writing "FREEZING" is not legal and returns EIO) 3) The tasks that blocked the cgroup from entering the "FROZEN" state disappear from the cgroup's set of tasks.

This patch series introduces a cgroup subsystem that utilizes the swsusp freezer to freeze a group of tasks. It's immediately useful for batch job management scripts. It should also be useful in the future for implementing container checkpoint/restart. The freezer subsystem in the container filesystem defines a cgroup file named freezer.state. Reading freezer.state will return the current state of the cgroup. Writing "FROZEN" to the state file will freeze all tasks in the cgroup. Subsequently writing "RUNNING" will unfreeze the tasks in the cgroup. * Examples of usage : # mkdir /containers/freezer # mount -t cgroup -ofreezer freezer /containers # mkdir /containers/0 # echo $some_pid > /containers/0/tasks to get status of the freezer subsystem : # cat /containers/0/freezer.state RUNNING to freeze all tasks in the container : # echo FROZEN > /containers/0/freezer.state # cat /containers/0/freezer.state FREEZING # cat /containers/0/freezer.state FROZEN to unfreeze all tasks in the container : # echo RUNNING > /containers/0/freezer.state # cat /containers/0/freezer.state RUNNING This patch: The first step in making the refrigerator() available to all architectures, even for those without power management. The purpose of such a change is to be able to use the refrigerator() in a new control group subsystem which will implement a control group freezer.

A patchset reworking sys_move_pages(). It removes the possibly large vmalloc by using multiple chunks when migrating large buffers. It also dramatically increases the throughput for large buffers since the lookup in new_page_node() is now limited to a single chunk, causing the quadratic complexity to have a much slower impact. There is no need to use any radix-tree-like structure to improve this lookup. sys_move_pages() duration on a 4-quadcore-opteron 2347HE (1.9Gz), migrating between nodes #2 and #3: length move_pages (us) move_pages+patch (us) 4kB 126 98 40kB 198 168 400kB 963 937 4MB 12503 11930 40MB 246867 11848 Patches #1 and #4 are the important ones: 1) stop returning -ENOENT from sys_move_pages() if nothing got migrated 2) don't vmalloc a huge page_to_node array for do_pages_stat() 3) extract do_pages_move() out of sys_move_pages() 4) rework do_pages_move() to work on page_sized chunks 5) move_pages: no need to set pp->page to ZERO_PAGE(0) by default This patch: There is no point in returning -ENOENT from sys_move_pages() if all pages were already on the right node, while we return 0 if only 1 page was not. Most application don't know where their pages are allocated, so it's not an error to try to migrate them anyway. Just return 0 and let the status array in user-space be checked if the application needs details. It will make the upcoming chunked-move_pages() support much easier.

During hotplug memory remove, memory regions should be released on a PAGES_PER_SECTION size chunks. This mirrors the code in add_memory where resources are requested on a PAGES_PER_SECTION size. Attempting to release the entire memory region fails because there is not a single resource for the total number of pages being removed. Instead the resources for the pages are split in PAGES_PER_SECTION size chunks as requested during memory add.

The current documentation of dirty_ratio and dirty_background_ratio is a bit misleading.

Presently hugepage doesn't use zero page at all because zero page is only used for coredumping and hugepage can't core dump. However we have now implemented hugepage coredumping. Therefore we should implement the zero page of hugepage. Implementation note: o Why do we only check VM_SHARED for zero page? normal page checked as .. static inline int use_zero_page(struct vm_area_struct *vma) { if (vma->vm_flags & (VM_LOCKED | VM_SHARED)) return 0; return !vma->vm_ops || !vma->vm_ops->fault; } First, hugepages are never mlock()ed. We aren't concerned with VM_LOCKED. Second, hugetlbfs is a pseudo filesystem, not a real filesystem and it doesn't have any file backing. Thus ops->fault checking is meaningless. o Why don't we use zero page if !pte. !pte indicate {pud, pmd} doesn't exist or some error happened. So we shouldn't return zero page if any error occurred.

Presently hugepage's vma has a VM_RESERVED flag in order not to be swapped. But a VM_RESERVED vma isn't core dumped because this flag is often used for some kernel vmas (e.g. vmalloc, sound related). Thus hugepages are never dumped and it can't be debugged easily. Many developers want hugepages to be included into core-dump. However, We can't read generic VM_RESERVED area because this area is often IO mapping area. then these area reading may change device state. it is definitly undesiable side-effect. So adding a hugepage specific bit to the coredump filter is better. It will be able to hugepage core dumping and doesn't cause any side-effect to any i/o devices. In additional, libhugetlb use hugetlb private mapping pages as anonymous page. Then, hugepage private mapping pages should be core dumped by default. Then, /proc/[pid]/core_dump_filter has two new bits. - bit 5 mean hugetlb private mapping pages are dumped or not. (default: yes) - bit 6 mean hugetlb shared mapping pages are dumped or not. (default: no) I tested by following method. % ulimit -c unlimited % ./crash_hugepage 50 % ./crash_hugepage 50 -p % ls -lh % gdb ./crash_hugepage core % % echo 0x43 > /proc/self/coredump_filter % ./crash_hugepage 50 % ./crash_hugepage 50 -p % ls -lh % gdb ./crash_hugepage core #include <stdlib.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/mman.h> #include <string.h> #include "hugetlbfs.h" int main(int argc, char** argv){ char* p; int ch; int mmap_flags = MAP_SHARED; int fd; int nr_pages; while((ch = getopt(argc, argv, "p")) != -1) { switch (ch) { case 'p': mmap_flags &= ~MAP_SHARED; mmap_flags |= MAP_PRIVATE; break; default: /* nothing*/ break; } } argc -= optind; argv += optind; if (argc == 0){ printf("need # of pages\n"); exit(1); } nr_pages = atoi(argv[0]); if (nr_pages < 2) { printf("nr_pages must >2\n"); exit(1); } fd = hugetlbfs_unlinked_fd(); p = mmap(NULL, nr_pages * gethugepagesize(), PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, mmap_flags, fd, 0); sleep(2); *(p + gethugepagesize()) = 1; /* COW */ sleep(2); /* crash! */ *(int*)0 = 1; return 0; } Signed-off-by: KOSAKI Motohiro <kosaki.motohiro@jp.fujitsu.com> Reviewed-by: Kawai Hidehiro <hidehiro.kawai.ez@hitachi.com> Cc: Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com> Cc: William Irwin <wli@holomorphy.com> Cc: Adam Litke <agl@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
