Linux-2.6.12-rc2 Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it.

[PATCH] aio: remove aio_max_nr accounting race AIO was adding a new context's max requests to the global total before testing if that resulting total was over the global limit. This let innocent tasks get their new limit tested along with a racing guilty task that was crossing the limit. This serializes the _nr accounting with a spinlock It also switches to using unsigned long for the global totals. Individual contexts are still limited to an unsigned int's worth of requests by the syscall interface. The problem and fix were verified with a simple program that spun creating and destroying a context while holding on to another long lived context. Before the patch a task creating a tiny context could get a spurious EAGAIN if it raced with a task creating a very large context that overran the limit.

[PATCH] aio-retry-fix: fix aio retry work queueing In the case of buffered AIO, in the aio retry path (aio_run_iocb), when the retry method returns EIOCBRETRY the kicked iocb is added to the context run list but is never queued onto the work queue. The request therefore is never completed. This patch fixes that by adding the appropriate call to aio_queue_work in aio_run_aiocb so that subsequent retries will be handled by the aio worker thread.

[PATCH] aio: revert lock_kiocb() lock_kiocb() was introduced to serialize retrying and cancellation. In the process of doing so it tried to sleep waiting for KIF_LOCKED while holding the ctx_lock spinlock. Recent fixes have ensured that multiple concurrent retries won't be attempted for a given iocb. Cancel has other problems and has no significant in-tree users that have been complaining about it. So for the immediate future we'll revert sleeping with the lock held and will address proper cancellation and retry serialization in the future.

[PATCH] uml: fixes performance regression in activate_mm and thus exec() Normally, activate_mm() is called from exec(), and thus it used to be a no-op because we use a completely new "MM context" on the host (for instance, a new process), and so we didn't need to flush any "TLB entries" (which for us are the set of memory mappings for the host process from the virtual "RAM" file). Kernel threads, instead, are usually handled in a different way. So, when for AIO we call use_mm(), things used to break and so Benjamin implemented activate_mm(). However, that is only needed for AIO, and could slow down exec() inside UML, so be smart: detect being called for AIO (via PF_BORROWED_MM) and do the full flush only in that situation. Comment also the caller so that people won't go breaking UML without noticing. I also rely on the caller's locks for testing current->flags.

[PATCH] aio: remove unlocked task_list test and resulting race Only one of the run or kick path is supposed to put an iocb on the run list. If both of them do it than one of them can end up referencing a freed iocb. The kick path could delete the task_list item from the wait queue before getting the ctx_lock and putting the iocb on the run list. The run path was testing the task_list item outside the lock so that it could catch ki_retry methods that return -EIOCBRETRY *without* putting the iocb on a wait queue and promising to call kick_iocb. This unlocked check could then race with the kick path to cause both to try and put the iocb on the run list. The patch stops the run path from testing task_list by requring that any ki_retry that returns -EIOCBRETRY *must* guarantee that kick_iocb() will be called in the future. aio_p{read,write}, the only in-tree -EIOCBRETRY users, are updated.

The run path, while holding the ctx_lock, could see this partial kick and mistake it for a kick that was deferred while it was doing work with the run_list NULLed out. It would then race with the kick thread to add the iocb to the run list. This patch moves the kick setting under the ctx_lock so that only one of the kick or run path queues the iocb on the run list, as intended.

[PATCH] aio: remove kioctx from mm_struct Sync iocbs have a life cycle that don't need a kioctx. Their retrying, if any, is done in the context of their owner who has allocated them on the stack. The sole user of a sync iocb's ctx reference was aio_complete() checking for an elevated iocb ref count that could never happen. No path which grabs an iocb ref has access to sync iocbs. If we were to implement sync iocb cancelation it would be done by the owner of the iocb using its on-stack reference. Removing this chunk from aio_complete allows us to remove the entire kioctx instance from mm_struct, reducing its size by a third. On a i386 testing box the slab size went from 768 to 504 bytes and from 5 to 8 per page.

[PATCH] aio: remove aio_max_nr accounting race AIO was adding a new context's max requests to the global total before testing if that resulting total was over the global limit. This let innocent tasks get their new limit tested along with a racing guilty task that was crossing the limit. This serializes the _nr accounting with a spinlock It also switches to using unsigned long for the global totals. Individual contexts are still limited to an unsigned int's worth of requests by the syscall interface. The problem and fix were verified with a simple program that spun creating and destroying a context while holding on to another long lived context. Before the patch a task creating a tiny context could get a spurious EAGAIN if it raced with a task creating a very large context that overran the limit.

This unlocked check could then race with the kick path to cause both to try and put the iocb on the run list.

[PATCH] aio: remove superfluous kiocb member initialization This patch removes superfluous kiocb member initialization in the AIO allocation and deallocation path. For example, in really_put_req(), right before kiocb is returned to slab, 5 variables are reset to NULL. The same variables will be initialized at the kiocb allocation time, so why bother reset them knowing that they will be set to valid data at alloc time? Another example: ki_retry is initialized in __aio_get_req, but is initialized again in io_submit_one.

[PATCH] aio: optimize io_submit_one() This patch optimizes io_submit_one to call aio_run_iocb() directly if ctx->run_list is empty. When the list is empty, the operation of adding to the list, then call to __aio_run_iocbs() is unnecessary because these operations are done in one atomic step. ctx->run_list always has only one element in this case. This optimization speeds up industry standard db transaction processing benchmark by 0.2%.

Linux-2.6.12-rc2 Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!

[PATCH] change io_cancel return code for no cancel case Note that other than few exceptions, most of the current filesystem and/or drivers do not have aio cancel specifically defined (kiob->ki_cancel field is mostly NULL). However, sys_io_cancel system call universally sets return code to -EAGAIN. This gives applications a wrong impression that this call is implemented but just never works. We have customer inquires about this issue. Changed by Benjamin LaHaise to EINVAL instead of ENOSYS Signed-off-by: S.
