kbuild: Disable LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION with ftrace & GCC <= 4.7

2019-01-22T20:09:54Z

commit 16fd20aa98080c2fa666dc384036ec08c80af710 upstream. When building using GCC 4.7 or older, -ffunction-sections & the -pg flag used by ftrace are incompatible. This causes warnings or build failures (where -Werror applies) such as the following: arch/mips/generic/init.c: error: -ffunction-sections disabled; it makes profiling impossible This used to be taken into account by the ordering of calls to cc-option from within the top-level Makefile, which was introduced by commit 90ad4052e85c ("kbuild: avoid conflict between -ffunction-sections and -pg on gcc-4.7"). Unfortunately this was broken when the CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION cc-option check was moved to Kconfig in commit e85d1d65cd8a ("kbuild: test dead code/data elimination support in Kconfig"), because the flags used by this check no longer include -pg. Fix this by not allowing CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION to be enabled at the same time as ftrace/CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER when building using GCC 4.7 or older.

psi: make disabling/enabling easier for vendor kernels

2018-11-30T22:56:14Z

Mel Gorman reports a hackbench regression with psi that would prohibit shipping the suse kernel with it default-enabled, but he'd still like users to be able to opt in at little to no cost to others. With the current combination of CONFIG_PSI and the psi_disabled bool set from the commandline, this is a challenge. Do the following things to make it easier: 1. Add a config option CONFIG_PSI_DEFAULT_DISABLED that allows distros to enable CONFIG_PSI in their kernel but leave the feature disabled unless a user requests it at boot-time. To avoid double negatives, rename psi_disabled= to psi=. 2. Make psi_disabled a static branch to eliminate any branch costs when the feature is disabled. In terms of numbers before and after this patch, Mel says: : The following is a comparision using CONFIG_PSI=n as a baseline against : your patch and a vanilla kernel : : 4.20.0-rc4 4.20.0-rc4 4.20.0-rc4 : kconfigdisable-v1r1 vanilla psidisable-v1r1 : Amean 1 1.3100 ( 0.00%) 1.3923 ( -6.28%) 1.3427 ( -2.49%) : Amean 3 3.8860 ( 0.00%) 4.1230 * -6.10%* 3.8860 ( -0.00%) : Amean 5 6.8847 ( 0.00%) 8.0390 * -16.77%* 6.7727 ( 1.63%) : Amean 7 9.9310 ( 0.00%) 10.8367 * -9.12%* 9.9910 ( -0.60%) : Amean 12 16.6577 ( 0.00%) 18.2363 * -9.48%* 17.1083 ( -2.71%) : Amean 18 26.5133 ( 0.00%) 27.8833 * -5.17%* 25.7663 ( 2.82%) : Amean 24 34.3003 ( 0.00%) 34.6830 ( -1.12%) 32.0450 ( 6.58%) : Amean 30 40.0063 ( 0.00%) 40.5800 ( -1.43%) 41.5087 ( -3.76%) : Amean 32 40.1407 ( 0.00%) 41.2273 ( -2.71%) 39.9417 ( 0.50%) : : It's showing that the vanilla kernel takes a hit (as the bisection : indicated it would) and that disabling PSI by default is reasonably : close in terms of performance for this particular workload on this : particular machine so; Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20181127165329.GA29728@cmpxchg.org Signed-off-by: Johannes Weiner Tested-by: Mel Gorman Reported-by: Mel Gorman Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

memblock: stop using implicit alignment to SMP_CACHE_BYTES

2018-10-31T15:54:16Z

When a memblock allocation APIs are called with align = 0, the alignment is implicitly set to SMP_CACHE_BYTES. Implicit alignment is done deep in the memblock allocator and it can come as a surprise. Not that such an alignment would be wrong even when used incorrectly but it is better to be explicit for the sake of clarity and the prinicple of the least surprise. Replace all such uses of memblock APIs with the 'align' parameter explicitly set to SMP_CACHE_BYTES and stop implicit alignment assignment in the memblock internal allocation functions. For the case when memblock APIs are used via helper functions, e.g. like iommu_arena_new_node() in Alpha, the helper functions were detected with Coccinelle's help and then manually examined and updated where appropriate. The direct memblock APIs users were updated using the semantic patch below: @@ expression size, min_addr, max_addr, nid; @@ ( | - memblock_alloc_try_nid_raw(size, 0, min_addr, max_addr, nid) + memblock_alloc_try_nid_raw(size, SMP_CACHE_BYTES, min_addr, max_addr, nid) | - memblock_alloc_try_nid_nopanic(size, 0, min_addr, max_addr, nid) + memblock_alloc_try_nid_nopanic(size, SMP_CACHE_BYTES, min_addr, max_addr, nid) | - memblock_alloc_try_nid(size, 0, min_addr, max_addr, nid) + memblock_alloc_try_nid(size, SMP_CACHE_BYTES, min_addr, max_addr, nid) | - memblock_alloc(size, 0) + memblock_alloc(size, SMP_CACHE_BYTES) | - memblock_alloc_raw(size, 0) + memblock_alloc_raw(size, SMP_CACHE_BYTES) | - memblock_alloc_from(size, 0, min_addr) + memblock_alloc_from(size, SMP_CACHE_BYTES, min_addr) | - memblock_alloc_nopanic(size, 0) + memblock_alloc_nopanic(size, SMP_CACHE_BYTES) | - memblock_alloc_low(size, 0) + memblock_alloc_low(size, SMP_CACHE_BYTES) | - memblock_alloc_low_nopanic(size, 0) + memblock_alloc_low_nopanic(size, SMP_CACHE_BYTES) | - memblock_alloc_from_nopanic(size, 0, min_addr) + memblock_alloc_from_nopanic(size, SMP_CACHE_BYTES, min_addr) | - memblock_alloc_node(size, 0, nid) + memblock_alloc_node(size, SMP_CACHE_BYTES, nid) ) [mhocko@suse.com: changelog update] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style fixes] [rppt@linux.ibm.com: fix missed uses of implicit alignment] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20181016133656.GA10925@rapoport-lnx Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1538687224-17535-1-git-send-email-rppt@linux.vnet.ibm.com Signed-off-by: Mike Rapoport Suggested-by: Michal Hocko Acked-by: Paul Burton [MIPS] Acked-by: Michael Ellerman [powerpc] Acked-by: Michal Hocko Cc: Catalin Marinas Cc: Chris Zankel Cc: Geert Uytterhoeven Cc: Guan Xuetao Cc: Ingo Molnar Cc: Matt Turner Cc: Michal Simek Cc: Richard Weinberger Cc: Russell King Cc: Thomas Gleixner Cc: Tony Luck Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

The alloc_bootmem(size) is a shortcut for allocation of SMP_CACHE_BYTES aligned memory.

init/do_mounts.c: add root=PARTLABEL= support

2018-10-31T15:54:13Z

Support referencing the root partition label from GPT as argument to the root= option on the kernel command line in analogy to referencing the partition uuid as root=PARTUUID=. Specifying the partition label instead of the uuid is often much easier, e.g. in embedded environments when there is an A/B rootfs partition scheme for interruptible firmware updates (i.e. rootfsA/ rootfsB). The partition label can be queried with the blkid command.

psi: cgroup support

2018-10-26T23:26:32Z

On a system that executes multiple cgrouped jobs and independent workloads, we don't just care about the health of the overall system, but also that of individual jobs, so that we can ensure individual job health, fairness between jobs, or prioritize some jobs over others. This patch implements pressure stall tracking for cgroups. In kernels with CONFIG_PSI=y, cgroup2 groups will have cpu.pressure, memory.pressure, and io.pressure files that track aggregate pressure stall times for only the tasks inside the cgroup.
