" Hmm, it would probably be cleaner to fully convert the isolation mode
into independent flags. INACTIVE, ACTIVE, BOTH is currently a

This reverts commit 3a9f987b31.
With all the files that are real modules now having module.h
explicitly called out for inclusion, and no reliance on any
implicit presence of module.h assumed, we should no longer
need this workaround.
Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>
The <linux/module.h> pretty much brings in the kitchen sink along
with it, so it should be avoided wherever reasonably possible in
terms of being included from other commonly used <linux/something.h>
files, as it results in a measureable increase on compile times.
The worst culprit was probably device.h since it is used everywhere.
This file also had an implicit dependency/usage of mutex.h which was
masked by module.h, and is also fixed here at the same time.
There are over a dozen other headers that simply declare the
struct instead of pulling in the whole file, so follow their lead
and simply make it a few more.
Most of the implicit dependencies on module.h being present by
these headers pulling it in have been now weeded out, so we can
finally make this change with hopefully minimal breakage.

This creates a new 'reason' field in a wb_writeback_work
structure, which unambiguously identifies who initiates
writeback activity. A 'wb_reason' enumeration has been
added to writeback.h, to enumerate the possible reasons.
The 'writeback_work_class' and tracepoint event class and
'writeback_queue_io' tracepoints are updated to include the
symbolic 'reason' in all trace events.
And the 'writeback_inodes_sbXXX' family of routines has had

This patch introduces a fast path in ext4_ext_convert_to_initialized()
for the case when the conversion can be performed by transferring
the newly initialized blocks from the uninitialized extent into
an adjacent initialized extent. Doing so removes the expensive
invocations of memmove() which occur during extent insertion and
the subsequent merge.
In practice this should be the common case for clients performing
append writes into files pre-allocated via
fallocate(FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE). In such a workload performed via
direct IO and when using a suboptimal implementation of memmove()
(x86_64 prior to the 2.6.39 rewrite), this patch reduces kernel CPU
consumption by 32%.
Two new trace points are added to ext4_ext_convert_to_initialized()
to offer visibility into its operations. No exit trace point has
been added due to the multiplicity of return points. This can be
revisited once the upstream cleanup is backported.

As proposed by Chris, Dave and Jan, don't start foreground writeback IO
inside balance_dirty_pages(). Instead, simply let it idle sleep for some
time to throttle the dirtying task. In the mean while, kick off the
per-bdi flusher thread to do background writeback IO.
RATIONALS
=========
- disk seeks on concurrent writeback of multiple inodes (Dave Chinner)
If every thread doing writes and being throttled start foreground
writeback, it leads to N IO submitters from at least N different
inodes at the same time, end up with N different sets of IO being
issued with potentially zero locality to each other, resulting in
much lower elevator sort/merge efficiency and hence we seek the disk
all over the place to service the different sets of IO.
OTOH, if there is only one submission thread, it doesn't jump between
inodes in the same way when congestion clears - it keeps writing to
the same inode, resulting in large related chunks of sequential IOs
being issued to the disk. This is more efficient than the above
foreground writeback because the elevator works better and the disk
seeks less.
- lock contention and cache bouncing on concurrent IO submitters (Dave Chinner)
With this patchset, the fs_mark benchmark on a 12-drive software RAID0 goes
from CPU bound to IO bound, freeing "3-4 CPUs worth of spinlock contention".
* "CPU usage has dropped by ~55%", "it certainly appears that most of
the CPU time saving comes from the removal of contention on the
inode_wb_list_lock" (IMHO at least 10% comes from the reduction of
cacheline bouncing, because the new code is able to call much less
frequently into balance_dirty_pages() and hence access the global
page states)
* the user space "App overhead" is reduced by 20%, by avoiding the
cacheline pollution by the complex writeback code path
* "for a ~5% throughput reduction", "the number of write IOs have
dropped by ~25%", and the elapsed time reduced from 41:42.17 to
40:53.23.
* On a simple test of 100 dd, it reduces the CPU %system time from 30% to 3%,
and improves IO throughput from 38MB/s to 42MB/s.
- IO size too small for fast arrays and too large for slow USB sticks
The write_chunk used by current balance_dirty_pages() cannot be
directly set to some large value (eg. 128MB) for better IO efficiency.
Because it could lead to more than 1 second user perceivable stalls.
Even the current 4MB write size may be too large for slow USB sticks.
The fact that balance_dirty_pages() starts IO on itself couples the
IO size to wait time, which makes it hard to do suitable IO size while
keeping the wait time under control.
Now it's possible to increase writeback chunk size proportional to the
disk bandwidth. In a simple test of 50 dd's on XFS, 1-HDD, 3GB ram,
the larger writeback size dramatically reduces the seek count to 1/10
(far beyond my expectation) and improves the write throughput by 24%.
- long block time in balance_dirty_pages() hurts desktop responsiveness
Many of us may have the experience: it often takes a couple of seconds
or even long time to stop a heavy writing dd/cp/tar command with
Ctrl-C or "kill -9".
- IO pipeline broken by bumpy write() progress
There are a broad class of "loop {read(buf); write(buf);}" applications
whose read() pipeline will be under-utilized or even come to a stop if
the write()s have long latencies _or_ don't progress in a constant rate.
The current threshold based throttling inherently transfers the large
low level IO completion fluctuations to bumpy application write()s,
and further deteriorates with increasing number of dirtiers and/or bdi's.
For example, when doing 50 dd's + 1 remote rsync to an XFS partition,
the rsync progresses very bumpy in legacy kernel, and throughput is
improved by 67% by this patchset. (plus the larger write chunk size,
it will be 93% speedup).
The new rate based throttling can support 1000+ dd's with excellent
smoothness, low latency and low overheads.
For the above reasons, it's much better to do IO-less and low latency
pauses in balance_dirty_pages().
Jan Kara, Dave Chinner and me explored the scheme to let
balance_dirty_pages() wait for enough writeback IO completions to
safeguard the dirty limit. However it's found to have two problems:
- in large NUMA systems, the per-cpu counters may have big accounting
errors, leading to big throttle wait time and jitters.
- NFS may kill large amount of unstable pages with one single COMMIT.
Because NFS server serves COMMIT with expensive fsync() IOs, it is
desirable to delay and reduce the number of COMMITs. So it's not
likely to optimize away such kind of bursty IO completions, and the
resulted large (and tiny) stall times in IO completion based throttling.
So here is a pause time oriented approach, which tries to control the
pause time in each balance_dirty_pages() invocations, by controlling
the number of pages dirtied before calling balance_dirty_pages(), for
smooth and efficient dirty throttling:
- avoid useless (eg. zero pause time) balance_dirty_pages() calls
- avoid too small pause time (less than 4ms, which burns CPU power)
- avoid too large pause time (more than 200ms, which hurts responsiveness)
- avoid big fluctuations of pause times
It can control pause times at will. The default policy (in a followup
patch) will be to do ~10ms pauses in 1-dd case, and increase to ~100ms
in 1000-dd case.
BEHAVIOR CHANGE
===============
(1) dirty threshold
Users will notice that the applications will get throttled once crossing
the global (background + dirty)/2=15% threshold, and then balanced around
17.5%. Before patch, the behavior is to just throttle it at 20% dirtyable
memory in 1-dd case.
Since the task will be soft throttled earlier than before, it may be
perceived by end users as performance "slow down" if his application
happens to dirty more than 15% dirtyable memory.
(2) smoothness/responsiveness
Users will notice a more responsive system during heavy writeback.
"killall dd" will take effect instantly.

One of the longest standing areas for improvement in ASoC has been the
DAPM algorithm - it repeats the same checks many times whenever it is run
and makes no effort to limit the areas of the graph it checks meaning we
do an awful lot of walks over the full graph. This has never mattered too
much as the size of the graph has generally been small in relation to the
size of the devices supported and the speed of CPUs but it is annoying.
In preparation for work on improving this insert a trace point after the
graph walk has been done. This gives us specific timing information for
the walk, and in order to give quantifiable (non-benchmark) numbers also
count every time we check a link or check the power for a widget and report
those numbers. Substantial changes in the algorithm may require tweaks to
the stats but they should be useful for simpler things.

Trace single register reads and writes, plus start/stop tracepoints for
the actual I/O to see where we're spending time. This makes it easy to
have always on logging without overwhelming the logs and also lets us take
advantage of all the context and time information that the trace subsystem
collects for us.
We don't currently trace register values for bulk operations as this would
add complexity and overhead parsing the cooked data that's being worked
with.

Pass struct wb_writeback_work all the way down to writeback_sb_inodes(),
and initialize the struct writeback_control there.
struct writeback_control is basically designed to control writeback of a
single file, but we keep abuse it for writing multiple files in
writeback_sb_inodes() and its callers.
It immediately clean things up, e.g. suddenly wbc.nr_to_write vs
work->nr_pages starts to make sense, and instead of saving and restoring
pages_skipped in writeback_sb_inodes it can always start with a clean
zero value.
It also makes a neat IO pattern change: large dirty files are now
written in the full 4MB writeback chunk size, rather than whatever
remained quota in wbc->nr_to_write.

While testing for memcg aware swap token, I observed a swap token was
often grabbed an intermittent running process (eg init, auditd) and they
never release a token.
Why?
Some processes (eg init, auditd, audispd) wake up when a process exiting.
And swap token can be get first page-in process when a process exiting
makes no swap token owner. Thus such above intermittent running process
often get a token.
And currently, swap token priority is only decreased at page fault path.
Then, if the process sleep immediately after to grab swap token, the swap
token priority never be decreased. That's obviously undesirable.
This patch implement very poor (and lightweight) priority aging. It only
be affect to the above corner case and doesn't change swap tendency

Commit a26ac2455ffcf3(rcu: move TREE_RCU from softirq to kthread)
introduced performance regression. In an AIM7 test, this commit degraded
performance by about 40%.
The commit runs rcu callbacks in a kthread instead of softirq. We observed
high rate of context switch which is caused by this. Out test system has
64 CPUs and HZ is 1000, so we saw more than 64k context switch per second
which is caused by RCU's per-CPU kthread. A trace showed that most of
the time the RCU per-CPU kthread doesn't actually handle any callbacks,
but instead just does a very small amount of work handling grace periods.
This means that RCU's per-CPU kthreads are making the scheduler do quite
a bit of work in order to allow a very small amount of RCU-related
processing to be done.
Alex Shi's analysis determined that this slowdown is due to lock
contention within the scheduler. Unfortunately, as Peter Zijlstra points
out, the scheduler's real-time semantics require global action, which
means that this contention is inherent in real-time scheduling. (Yes,
perhaps someone will come up with a workaround -- otherwise, -rt is not
going to do well on large SMP systems -- but this patch will work around
this issue in the meantime. And "the meantime" might well be forever.)
This patch therefore re-introduces softirq processing to RCU, but only
for core RCU work. RCU callbacks are still executed in kthread context,
so that only a small amount of RCU work runs in softirq context in the
common case. This should minimize ksoftirqd execution, allowing us to
skip boosting of ksoftirqd for CONFIG_RCU_BOOST=y kernels.

Because there is a possibility that skb is kfree_skb()ed and zero cleared
after ndo_start_xmit, we should not see the contents of skb like skb->len and
skb->dev->name after ndo_start_xmit. But trace_net_dev_xmit does that

If RCU priority boosting is to be meaningful, callback invocation must
be boosted in addition to preempted RCU readers. Otherwise, in presence
of CPU real-time threads, the grace period ends, but the callbacks don't
get invoked. If the callbacks don't get invoked, the associated memory
doesn't get freed, so the system is still subject to OOM.
But it is not reasonable to priority-boost RCU_SOFTIRQ, so this commit
moves the callback invocations to a kthread, which can be boosted easily.
Also add comments and properly synchronized all accesses to

Here is what I have added:
1) ordere_extent:
btrfs_ordered_extent_add
btrfs_ordered_extent_remove
btrfs_ordered_extent_start
btrfs_ordered_extent_put
These provide critical information to understand how ordered_extents are
updated.
2) extent_map:
btrfs_get_extent
extent_map is used in both read and write cases, and it is useful for tracking
how btrfs specific IO is running.
3) writepage:
__extent_writepage
btrfs_writepage_end_io_hook
Pages are cirtical resourses and produce a lot of corner cases during writeback,
so it is valuable to know how page is written to disk.
4) inode:
btrfs_inode_new
btrfs_inode_request
btrfs_inode_evict
These can show where and when a inode is created, when a inode is evicted.
5) sync:
btrfs_sync_file
btrfs_sync_fs
These show sync arguments.
6) transaction:
btrfs_transaction_commit
In transaction based filesystem, it will be useful to know the generation and
who does commit.
7) back reference and cow:
btrfs_delayed_tree_ref
btrfs_delayed_data_ref
btrfs_delayed_ref_head
btrfs_cow_block
Btrfs natively supports back references, these tracepoints are helpful on
understanding btrfs's COW mechanism.
8) chunk:
btrfs_chunk_alloc
btrfs_chunk_free
Chunk is a link between physical offset and logical offset, and stands for space
infomation in btrfs, and these are helpful on tracing space things.
9) reserved_extent:
btrfs_reserved_extent_alloc
btrfs_reserved_extent_free
These can show how btrfs uses its space.

If we enable trace events to trace block actions, We use
blk_fill_rwbs_rq to analyze the corresponding actions
in request's cmd_flags, but we only choose the minor 2 bits
from it, so most of other flags(e.g, REQ_SYNC) are missing.
For example, with a sync write we get:
write_test-2409 [001] 160.013869: block_rq_insert: 3,64 W 0 () 258135 + =
8 [write_test]
Since now we have integrated the flags of both bio and request,
it is safe to pass rq->cmd_flags directly to blk_fill_rwbs and
blk_fill_rwbs_rq isn't needed any more.
With this patch, after a sync write we get:
write_test-2417 [000] 226.603878: block_rq_insert: 3,64 WS 0 () 258135 +=
8 [write_test]

Currently the trace_event structures are placed in the _ftrace_events
section, and at link time, the linker makes one large array of all
the trace_event structures. On boot up, this array is read (much like
the initcall sections) and the events are processed.
The problem is that there is no guarantee that gcc will place complex
structures nicely together in an array format. Two structures in the
same file may be placed awkwardly, because gcc has no clue that they
are suppose to be in an array.
A hack was used previous to force the alignment to 4, to pack the
structures together. But this caused alignment issues with other
architectures (sparc).
Instead of packing the structures into an array, the structures' addresses
are now put into the _ftrace_event section. As pointers are always the
natural alignment, gcc should always pack them tightly together
(otherwise initcall, extable, etc would also fail).
By having the pointers to the structures in the section, we can still
iterate the trace_events without causing unnecessary alignment problems
with other architectures, or depending on the current behaviour of
gcc that will likely change in the future just to tick us kernel developers
off a little more.
The _ftrace_event section is also moved into the .init.data section
as it is now only needed at boot up.

9f987b3141f086de27832514aad9f50a53f754
tracing: Include module.h in define_trace.h
only solved half the problem. If the trace/events/module.h header is
included at the time of define_trace.h (or in ftrace.h within it),
the module.h TRACE_SYSTEM will override the current TRACE_SYSTEM
macro.
Since define_trace.h is included when CREATE_TRACE_POINTS is set,
and the first thing it does is to #undef CREATE_TRACE_POINTS,
by placing the module.h TRACE_SYSTEM inside a
#ifdef CREATE_TRACE_POINTS
we can prevent it from overriding the TRACE_SYSTEM that is
being processed, and still process the module.h tracepoints
when the module code defines CREATE_TRACE_POINTS and includes
the trace/events/module.h header.
As with commit 9f987b3141, this is only an issue if module.h
is not included before the trace/events/<event>.h file is
included, which (luckily) has not happened yet.

Provide some basic trace facilities to the regulator API. We generate
events on regulator enable, disable and voltage setting over the actual
hardware operations (which are assumed to be the expensive ones which
require interaction with the actual device). This is intended to facilitate
debug of the performance and behaviour with consumers allowing unified
traces to be generated including the regulator operations within the
context of the other components of the system.
For enable we log the explicit delay for the voltage ramp separately to
the interaction with the hardware to highlight the time consumed in I/O.
We should add a similar delay for voltage changes, though there the
relatively small magnitude of the changes in the context of the I/O
costs makes it much less critical for most regulators.
Only hardware interactions are currently traced as the primary focus is
on the performance and synchronisation of actual hardware interactions.
Additional tracepoints for debugging of the logical operations can be
added later if required.

Add these new power trace events:
power:cpu_idle
power:cpu_frequency
power:machine_suspend
The old C-state/idle accounting events:
power:power_start
power:power_end
Have now a replacement (but we are still keeping the old
tracepoints for compatibility):
power:cpu_idle
and
power:power_frequency
is replaced with:
power:cpu_frequency
power:machine_suspend is newly introduced.
Jean Pihet has a patch integrated into the generic layer
(kernel/power/suspend.c) which will make use of it.
the type= field got removed from both, it was never
used and the type is differed by the event type itself.
perf timechart userspace tool gets adjusted in a separate patch.

As jack detection can trigger DAPM and the latency in debouncing can create
confusing windows in operation provide some trace events which will hopefully
help in diagnostics. The soc-jack core traces all reports that it gets and
the resulting notifications to upper layers. An event for jack IRQs is also
provided for instrumentation of debounce, and used in the GPIO jack code.

There are instances in the kernel that we only want to trace
a tracepoint when a certain condition is set. But we do not
want to test for that condition in the core kernel.
If we test for that condition before calling the tracepoin, then
we will be performing that test even when tracing is not enabled.
This is 99.99% of the time.
We currently can just filter out on that condition, but that happens
after we write to the trace buffer. We just wasted time writing to
the ring buffer for an event we never cared about.
This patch adds:
TRACE_EVENT_CONDITION() and DEFINE_EVENT_CONDITION()
These have a new TP_CONDITION() argument that comes right after
the TP_ARGS(). This condition can use the parameters of TP_ARGS()
in the TRACE_EVENT() to determine if the tracepoint should be traced
or not. The TP_CONDITION() will be placed in a if (cond) trace;
For example, for the tracepoint sched_wakeup, it is useless to
trace a wakeup event where the caller never actually wakes
anything up (where success == 0). So adding:
TP_CONDITION(success),
which uses the "success" parameter of the wakeup tracepoint
will have it only trace when we have successfully woken up a
task.

Currently we have in something like the sched_switch event:
field:char prev_comm[TASK_COMM_LEN]; offset:12; size:16; signed:1;
When a userspace tool such as perf tries to parse this, the
TASK_COMM_LEN is meaningless. This is done because the TRACE_EVENT() macro
simply uses a #len to show the string of the length. When the length is
an enum, we get a string that means nothing for tools.
By adding a static buffer and a mutex to protect it, we can store the
string into that buffer with snprintf and show the actual number.
Now we get:
field:char prev_comm[16]; offset:12; size:16; signed:1;
Something much more useful.

As for the raw syscalls events, individual syscall events won't

This introduces the new TRACE_EVENT_FLAGS() macro in order
to set up initial event flags value.
This macro must simply follow the definition of a trace event
and take the event name and the flag value as parameters:
TRACE_EVENT(my_event, .....
....
);
TRACE_EVENT_FLAGS(my_event, 1)
This will set up 1 as the initial my_event->flags value.

Trace events for DAPM allow us to monitor the performance and behaviour
of DAPM with logging which can be built into the kernel permanantly, is
more suited to automated analysis and display and less likely to suffer
interference from other logging activity.
Currently trace events are generated for:
- Start and stop of DAPM processing
- Start and stop of bias level changes
- Power decisions for widgets
- Widget event execution start and stop
giving some view as to what is happening and where latencies occur.
Actual changes in widget power can be seen via the register write trace in
soc-core.

The trace subsystem provides a convenient way of instrumenting the kernel
which can be left on all the time with extremely low impact on the system
unlike prints to the kernel log which can be very spammy. Begin adding
support for instrumenting ASoC via this interface by adding trace for the
register access primitives.

Unfortunately perf can't deal with anything other than direct structure
accesses in the TP_printk() section. It will drop dead when it sees
jbd2_dev_to_name() in the "print fmt" section of the tracepoint.

Many tracepoints were populating an ext4_allocation_context
to pass in, but this requires a slab allocation even when
tracepoints are off. In fact, 4 of 5 of these allocations
were only for tracing. In addition, we were only using a
small fraction of the 144 bytes of this structure for this
purpose.
We can do away with all these alloc/frees of the ac and
simply pass in the bits we care about, instead.
I tested this by turning on tracing and running through
xfstests on x86_64. I did not actually do anything with
the trace output, however.

Our QA reported an oops in the ext4_mb_release_group_pa tracing,
and Josef Bacik pointed out that it was because we may have a
non-null but uninitialized ac_inode in the allocation context.
I can reproduce it when running xfstests with ext4 tracepoints on,
on a CONFIG_SLAB_DEBUG kernel.
We call trace_ext4_mb_release_group_pa from 2 places,
ext4_mb_discard_group_preallocations and
ext4_mb_discard_lg_preallocations
In both cases we allocate an ac as a container just for tracing (!)
and never fill in the ac_inode. There's no reason to be assigning,
testing, or printing it as far as I can see, so just remove it from
the tracepoint.

If congestion_wait() is called with no BDI congested, the caller will
sleep for the full timeout and this may be an unnecessary sleep. This
patch adds a wait_iff_congested() that checks congestion and only sleeps
if a BDI is congested else, it calls cond_resched() to ensure the caller
is not hogging the CPU longer than its quota but otherwise will not sleep.
This is aimed at reducing some of the major desktop stalls reported during
IO. For example, while kswapd is operating, it calls congestion_wait()
but it could just have been reclaiming clean page cache pages with no
congestion. Without this patch, it would sleep for a full timeout but
after this patch, it'll just call schedule() if it has been on the CPU too
long. Similar logic applies to direct reclaimers that are not making
enough progress.

shrink_page_list() can decide to give up reclaiming a page under a
number of conditions such as
1. trylock_page() failure
2. page is unevictable
3. zone reclaim and page is mapped
4. PageWriteback() is true
5. page is swapbacked and swap is full
6. add_to_swap() failure
7. page is dirty and gfpmask don't have GFP_IO, GFP_FS
8. page is pinned
9. IO queue is congested
10. pageout() start IO, but not finished
With lumpy reclaim, failures result in entering synchronous lumpy reclaim
but this can be unnecessary. In cases (2), (3), (5), (6), (7) and (8),
there is no point retrying. This patch causes lumpy reclaim to abort when
it is known it will fail.
Case (9) is more interesting. current behavior is,
1. start shrink_page_list(async)
2. found queue_congested()
3. skip pageout write
4. still start shrink_page_list(sync)
5. wait on a lot of pages
6. again, found queue_congested()
7. give up pageout write again
So, it's useless time wasting. However, just skipping page reclaim is
also notgood as x86 allocating a huge page needs 512 pages for example.
It can have more dirty pages than queue congestion threshold (~=128).
After this patch, pageout() behaves as follows;
- If order > PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER
Ignore queue congestion always.
- If order <= PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER
skip write page and disable lumpy reclaim.
