うむむ このエントリーをはてなブックマークに追加

某所からお誘いがあったので、Japan Linux Conference 2008の論文を申し込んでみたが、半日で適当に書いただけあってダメすぎる。

よく考えればどうせ恥をさらすだけなのだから、申し込みをやめておけばよかった。
反省

ext4は遅い 3杯目 このエントリーをはてなブックマークに追加

こんどはカーネルコンパイル速度を比較したけど、やっぱりext3のほうが速かったよ。というお話。


From: Jan Blunck

Subject: kernel build time

After Andreas talk yesterday I did some tests on my T61. This is not really a
perfect benchmark setup but Andreas said I should send the data anyway.

make clean (ext3)
real 0m3.073s
user 0m1.324s
sys 0m1.444s

make -j 4 (ext3)
real 6m37.377s
user 10m58.081s
sys 1m38.890s

make clean (ext4)
real 0m6.443s
user 0m1.712s
sys 0m1.824s

make -j 4 (ext4)
real 6m42.694s
user 10m59.593s
sys 1m36.994s

Filesystem features: has_journal ext_attr resize_inode dir_index filetype
needs_recovery extent flex_bg sparse_super large_file huge_file uninit_bg
dir_nlink extra_isize
Filesystem flags: signed_directory_hash test_filesystem

That is with the patch queue from
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/tytso/ext4-patches/2.6.26-ext4-1
on top of 2.6.26. Both ext3 and ext4dev are running on logical volumes (no
barrier support). I used the latest e2fsprogs available.

HTH,
Jan

ビアンカとフローラ このエントリーをはてなブックマークに追加

フローラ一択なんだが。常識的に考えて。
以下に理由を列挙してみる

・天空の盾を手に入れるにはフローラしかない。
 ビアンカを選んでも結婚式はやってあげると言われているが、盾をあげるとは一言も。。
 目的を思い出せ、自分
・フローラ嫁、ビアンカ愛人ルートは妄想の範囲内だが、逆はないだろう。
・てゆーか、話を盛り上げる為には、小説とかなら、フローラと結婚しておいて
自分の娘が8歳になったときに、ビアンカとの思い出が蘇ってきて・・・
 というのが定番ではないか。

だがしかし、フローラとの子供が倉が気に入らないのであった。


なんの話かは秘密

Xでの電力消費 このエントリーをはてなブックマークに追加

そういえば2年ぐらい前のOLSネタで、XはXEventに時刻フィールドがあるおかげで、
マウス動かすだけで狂ったようにgettimeofday()が発行されてクソ遅いし、電力のむだだーー

とかいう話があったと思うんだけど、今どうなってるか誰か知らない?

munlock rework このエントリーをはてなブックマークに追加

が、たった今 -mm にマージされました。
まさに光速。

ふつう、get_user_pages()なんて頻出コードをいじるときはもっと議論がなされるものだけど、今回はバグフィックス扱いでakpm特権でマージしたみたいだね。

そして、reclaim throttleは今回もマージされなかったのでした(;_;

ピカチュリン このエントリーをはてなブックマークに追加

http://sankei.jp.msn.com/culture/academic/080721/acd0807210202000-n1.htm


目で受けた光の刺激を、電気信号で脳に伝える際に重要な働きをするタンパク質を、大阪バイオサイエンス研究所の古川貴久研究部長(神経発生学)らのチームがマウスを使った実験で発見。電気を操るネズミに似た人気アニメキャラクターにちなみ「ピカチュリン」と命名し、21日、米科学誌ネイチャー・ニューロサイエンス電子版に発表した。

 ヒトなどのほ乳類の目では、光の刺激が網膜の視細胞で電気信号に変わり、双極細胞を通過して視神経から脳へ伝達される。現在、目の疾患に対してはiPS細胞(人工多能性幹細胞)などで視細胞を作ることはできても、神経伝達回路であるシナプスの形成過程が解明できていないことから、臨床応用は現実的でないとされてきた。

 古川部長らは、マウスの実験で視細胞と双極細胞の間をつなぐ視神経の周りに特異的に発現しているタンパク質を発見。光を発して電気を操る人気アニメキャラクター「ピカチュウ」をもじって「ピカチュリン」と名付けた。古川部長は「網膜の神経回路のメカニズムを明らかにする大きな一歩。将来的にもiPS細胞で視細胞を作り出す再生医療に応用できる」と話した。

2.6.26の全CPUのバックトレースを表示する機能について補足 このエントリーをはてなブックマークに追加

sysrq: 全CPUのバックトレースを表示する機能の追加

が2.6.26の新機能として上がっているが、これがどういうものかというと、Magic SYSRQにl を打ち込むと全CPUの処理箇所が取れるというもの。
以下、使用例


# ./hackbench 10 process 10000 &
# echo l > /proc/sysrq-trigger

SysRq : Show backtrace of all active CPUs

sched_mc_power_savings このエントリーをはてなブックマークに追加

kernel watch没ネタ集

Vaidyanathan Srinivasan がスケジューラに手をいれて

echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/sched_mc_power_savings

ってやったら、なるべく処理を少ない数のCPUで行うようにしようと提案。目的は省電力機能の追加らしい。
で、インターフェースがどうのと、うだうだ議論したあと、nice, ioniceについてpowerniceを作ろうという斜め上の結論に。
ええ、これを使うとプロセスは省電力モードで動くんです。

printkの非互換にたいする指摘 このエントリーをはてなブックマークに追加

カーネルウォッチ没ネタ集
linux-2.6.26のリリース直前でLinusがprintkに構文拡張を入れました(そうです。Linusが書いたコードはマージウィンドとか関係なく常にいきなりmainlineにマージされるのです)

具体的には
%pS: ポインタのシンボル名を表示(データ)
%pF: ポインタのシンボル名を表示(関数)

の2つ。ああ、IA64とかでは関数ポインタの扱いが特殊だから%pSだけに出来ないんだわ。
最初は%Sにするつもりだったのだが、誰かが、それってgccの__attribute__((format(printf, ..)))が警告だすやんけ。という話があって、二文字フォーマットしかないねという結論に。

んで、それに対して、Matthew Wilcoxがつけたコメントが

printk("Function %pSucks\n", sys_open);

が非互換になるよねー。まあもっともそんなコードがカーネルの中にあるとも思えないけども(^^)


そうです。LKMLは英語圏の2chなので、どんな議論でもSuckとかCrap言わないと議論が進まないのです!

GPL v4 このエントリーをはてなブックマークに追加

LKMLでGPL v4作ろうぜーーって人が出現。


From: "Morton Harrow"
To: [email protected]
Date: Thu, 17 Jul 2008 02:09:53 +0800
Subject: GPL version 4

Dear gentlemen (and included list-members),

Let me first introduce myself. My name is Morton Harrow, senior GNU/Linux consultant in the London metropolitan area. I have been around in the Open Source world since the early beginning. I am very happy with the spirit and efforts of the Free Software Foundation (FSF).

As the name mentions “free”, one would think this organisation embraces real freedom. I can't help but feel that the FSF has made a mistake with the release of the third version of the GPL (GPLv3). This license restricts the freedom and usage of open source software for governments, companies and end-users alike.
Linking from other software which is not regarded by the FSF as free software, is not allowed by this license. I can't help but wonder if this is the freedom the FSF intensions. Real free should be that users are allowed link any software against GPL licensed software, without restrictions. But the current “freedom” restricts the spirit of Richard M. Stallman's original vision on a free world.

We propose to release as soon as possible, version 4 of the General Public License.

The GPL version 4 will accept every other license, accepted by the Open Source Initiative as open source. Corporate usage of GPL released software should be possible without restrictions. Linking from closed source software to GPLv4 software and libraries will be permitted. GPLv4 software can be shipped in (commercial) closed source software. Only this and the original authors need to be mentioned. Also, I believe the copyright of the FSF software should be transferred to the United Nations. As “human knowledge belongs to the world.”

Our planned release date of GPLv4 is 15th September 2008. The first software to be released under the terms of this new license, will be a continuation of the stalled ReiserFS project. As the FSF headers allow software to be released under the terms of the GPLv2 or higher, we will prepare automatic relicensing of GPLv2 and GPLv3 software to the GPLv4.

If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to contact me.

With kind regards,

Morton Harrow

LKMLでEric Rannaud さんが「madvise(2) MADV_SEQUENTIAL behavior」というタイトルでなんでシーケンシャルゆーてんのに読んだ後捨ててくれへんのやーー
と言っている。

真にもっともだがぶっちゃけメンドイからだと思う。

あと、mmapを使ったused onceページは扱いが難しいんじゃよー
mmapでタッチした瞬間にaccess bitが立ってしまうので、普通はそこで即捨て候補からはずれてしまうからな。

今うず高くつみあがっている残作業が消えたら、なんか考えてもいいな


mm/madvise.c and madvise(2) say:

* MADV_SEQUENTIAL - pages in the given range will probably be accessed
* once, so they can be aggressively read ahead, and
* can be freed soon after they are accessed.


But as the sample program at the end of this post shows, and as I
understand the code in mm/filemap.c, MADV_SEQUENTIAL will only increase
the amount of read ahead for the specified page range, but will not
influence the rate at which the pages just read will be freed from
memory.

Running the sample program on a large file, say 4GB on a machine with
3GB of RAM, the resident size of the program will grow enough to evict
pretty much everything else. (on 2.6.25.9-40.fc8)

Right before the program below is done reading the 4GB file:

7f6c3e654000-7f6d3e654000 r--s 00000000 fd:02 98125 /tmp/bigfile
Size: 4194304 kB
Rss: 2472220 kB
Pss: 2472220 kB
Shared_Clean: 0 kB
Shared_Dirty: 0 kB
Private_Clean: 2472220 kB
Private_Dirty: 0 kB
Referenced: 718748 kB


I'm well aware that the kernel is free to ignore the advice given
through madvise(2) (fadvise(2) seems to behave similarly, btw), so I'm
certainly not claiming this is a bug. However, I was wondering what was
the rationale behind it, and whether the manpages should be updated to
be more accurate.

There is a very straightforward workaround: MADV_DONTNEED on the range
just read, every so often, will be very effective at controlling the
resident size of the mapping. (mm/madvise.c:madvise_dontneed() calls
zap_page_range())

Thanks.

[RFC] Improved versioned pointer algorithms このエントリーをはてなブックマークに追加

ZFSのCOWアップデートをさらに改良するアルゴリズムを考えたよー。というDaniel Phillips による投稿。

でも、正直btrfsはこういう性能改善を議論するレベルまでいってないと思うんだ。


Greetings, filesystem algorithm fans.

The recent, detailed description of the versioned pointer method for
volume versioning is here:

http://linux.derkeiler.com/Mailing-Lists/Kernel/2008-07/msg02663.html

I apologize humbly for the typo in the first sentence. Today's revision
of the proof of concept code is cleaned up to remove some redundant
logic from the exception delete and origin write algorithms, and has
a number of small improvements. The fuzzing test has run to 20 million
iterations without problems. Some of the more complex logic has become
simple to the point where it can possibly be seen to be correct in
addition to merely running correctly.

The current efficiency scores for the six basic operations are:

Origin write: O(exceptions)
Snapshot write: O(versions)
Snapshot delete: O(versions)
Snapshot read: O(exceptions)
Snapshot of origin: O(versions)
Snapshot of snapshot: O(versions)

This is mainly about CPU time rather than filesystem efficiency. The
real time performance will be dominated by disk operations as usual.

Snapshot write is a frequent operation and snapshot delete is performed
on large amounts of metadata at a time, so it would be nice to improve
their performance to be independent of the number of versions created.

O(exceptions) orphan test
-------------------------

It is only the orphan searches that increase snapshot write and
snapshot delete running times from O(exceptions) to O(versions),
otherwise the main algorithm is already O(exceptions).

The orphan test is used in snapshot write and exception delete to
identify any new orphans created as a result of a write that creates an
exclusive exception for the only heir of the ghost exception, or a
delete that removes the only heir and does not promote a new heir.

The current method of determining whether a ghost exception is an
orphan is to recurse through the subtree below the ghost until a visible
version is found that inherits the exception. This traversal runs in
O(versions) time.

To perform this test in O(exceptions) time, we proceed as follows:

First, identify a subtree of the version tree consisting only of ghost
versions in interior nodes and visible versions at terminal nodes,
descending from the ghost ancestor of the victim version nearest the
root and having no visible versions or present exceptions between itself
and the victim. Call each interior node of that subtree a "nexus",
which must have more than one child because it is a ghost. This step
is done once, prior to a full-tree version delete pass.

The interesting question is whether a ghost exception is inherited
by any visible version that does not appear in the same exception list.
If not, then the ghost exception is an orphan that must be deleted.

This can be computed efficiently using a bottom up approach with a
single pass through the exception list. At each nexus keep a count of
the children of the nexus that are known not to inherit from that
nexus. Call that the blocked count. Set the blocked counts to zero
and:

For each exception in the exception list:
If the version labeled by the exception is in the ghost
tree then increment the blocked count of the nexus parent

If the blocked count is now equal to the number of children
of the nexus then repeat from the preceding step

At completion, if the blocked count of the ghost ancestor is equal to
its child count then the ghost exception is an orphan, otherwise not.

Example
-------

Below, ghost versions are marked with ~ and members of the ghost tree
are marked with *.

.
`-- A
|-- B
`-- *C~
|-- *D
|-- E <== victim to be deleted
`-- *F~
|-- *G
`-- *H
|-- I
`-- J

Version C is the single ghost ancestor (there may be more than one) that
may contain an orphan exception. D does not belong to the ghost tree
because it is to be deleted and has already been removed from the
version tree when the ghost tree is constructed. The interior nexus
nodes are C and F while D, G and H are terminal, user visible nodes of
the ghost tree.

Overlaying the exception list [I, p1] [G, p2] [C, p3] [D, p4] on the
example tree:

.
`-- A
|-- B
`-- *C~ [p3]
|-- *D [p4]
|-- E <== deleted victim
`-- *F~
|-- *G [p2]
`-- *H
|-- I [p1]
`-- J

When exception [I, p1] is found it is ignored because it is not a member
of the ghost tree. H has no exception, so [G, p2] cannot cause the
algorithm to iterate past node F. Processing [D, p4] will raise the
nexus count at C to one, but C has two children after ignoring E (which
is deleted by this time) so [C, p3] is not an orphan. Examining the
tree shows that visible version H continues to inherit the ghost
exception at C, which could now be relabeled to H if desired, but since
it will be detected and deleted in the fullness of time anyway there
is little point in doing that extra work here.

If any of versions F, H or J had an exception then [C, p3] would be an
orphan.

O(log(exceptions)) snapshot lookup
----------------------------------

An O(log(exceptions)) snapshot lookup is known to exist and is left as
an exercise for the interested reader.

Updated versioned pointers fuzztest attached
--------------------------------------------

c99 fuzzversion.c && ./a.out

Request for comment from Btrfs and ZFS developers
-------------------------------------------------

I am considering the wisdom of developing a filesystem based on
versioned pointers. The prospect of per-file and per-directory
versioning seems attractive, as does the elegant formulation of
snapshots-of-snapshots and the compact metadata. I suspect that less
updating of metadata will be required for writes versus either Btrfs or
ZFS. Mind you, there is no working filesystem code at the moment, only
ddsnap the snapshotting block device and the attached proof of concept
of versioned pointers, so some of this is speculation.

I described earlier how versioned pointers will be extended to versioned
extents but have not yet tried it. This would be necessary in order to
operate in the same ballpark of efficiency as ZFS or Btrfs.

Versioned pointers have some advantages over versioning methods used in
ZFS and Btrfs, and also some potential drawbacks:

Advantages versus ZFS and Btrfs:

* No per-write recursive copy on write of metadata blocks. Creating a
new copy of a data block normally only requires inserting a new
versioned pointer to a btree leaf block. Such inserts can be logged
logically and added to the btree in large batches, which can be done
atomically using standard methods (physical journal, log or copy on
write).

Advantages versus Btrfs:

* No reference count updates, which must be be durable and atomic,
surely a painful overhead. Instead, it can be determined entirely
from the exception list whether a given block is referenced, so
only exception lists need to be updated, and only by adding,
removing, or in rare cases, relabeling physical pointers.

Advantages versus ZFS:

* No need to maintain a dead list. This information can be entirely
determined from the combination of the versioned pointers and the
version tree.

* It would seem that ZFS is deeply wedded to the concept of a single,
linear chain of snapshots. No snapshots of snapshots, apparently.
http://blogs.sun.com/ahrens/entry/is_it_magic

Drawbacks of versioned pointers:

* All version info stored together for any given logical address.
This will require reading more metadata blocks as the number of
versions increases, and put more pressure on cache. How to fix: with
extents, metadata is tiny compared to data, even if expanded by a
large factor, so it may not matter. If it does, an in-memory version
of accessed btree nodes for a particular snapshot can be cached and
saved persistently to disk so that the full version btree only
rarely needs to be accessed.

* Delete is a full tree pass over the metadata. But this can be done
in the background for multiple deleted versions per pass. Also can
keep a persistent cache per version of which logical address ranges
have exceptions for a given version to limit the search.

* Limited number of versions. This can be overcome mindlessly by
extending the size of a physical pointer, or more elegantly by
keeping a per-leaf "wide" translation table of versions referenced
by the leaf, or both depending on which representation is smaller for
a particular leaf.

linux 2.6.26 このエントリーをはてなブックマークに追加

でましたね。
OLSにぶつけて来るという予想は大ハズレ(T_T



So it's been almost three months since 2.6.25 (87 days to be exact, I
think), making this a longer-than-usual release cycle. Or maybe it just
feels that way, and we're always getting close to three months these days.

But it's out there now. Or rather, the git tree is out there, and the
patch/tar-ball is still uploading as I write this.

The diffs from -rc9 are pretty small, with with the bulk actually being
Documentation updates (almost 80% is just added docs). The rest tensd to
be one-liners for some regressions or otherwise pretty small patches.

Several regressions did get fixed in the last few days, thanks to
everybody involved.

dirstat since -rc9:

3.3% Documentation/networking/
78.5% Documentation/
2.5% arch/
2.4% drivers/net/wireless/
4.0% drivers/net/
2.0% drivers/usb/host/
2.1% drivers/usb/
9.4% drivers/
2.0% fs/
3.6% net/

and dirstat for the whole release since 2.6.25 (yeah, Documentation
doesn't even show up in the latter :^):

4.9% arch/arm/
9.0% arch/powerpc/configs/
11.8% arch/powerpc/

うむ このエントリーをはてなブックマークに追加

今年は隠れ目標として、-mmにパッチを50件以上キューイングしようという
計画を立てていたんだけど、今日のAndrewからのメールを見るとどうやら達成したらしい。
2.6.26のリリースが遅れているのと(たぶんLinusはOLSにぶつける為にわざと遅らせている)
パッチの内実が、本人の全然知らないところでCCedに入っていたヤツ多数なので、
手放しに喜べない部分もあるが、まあ、そのへんは今後改善だな

いや・・PowerPCのFixをCCされても・・・ このエントリーをはてなブックマークに追加

敬愛するHugh Dickins先生がMLを経由せずに個人的にAndrew Mortonに送りつけているパッチにCCされるようになった。

・・・が、しかし、PowerPCのコードなんか送られても、まったくレビューできないのであった(苦笑

さよならpagemap このエントリーをはてなブックマークに追加

先日マージされたばかりのpagemapですが、Linusからクソだの削除しろだの言われています。
組み込み屋さん涙目

・・・といいたいところだが、LKMLでLinusの意見が黙って無視されるのは良くある事なので油断できない(そしてLinusはすねることになる)

No can do. You have one single pagemap_walk, but perhaps multiple users,
who all disagree about what it should contain.

Quite frankly, I think we should just remove the whole f*cking crap. I
think it's also potentially a security hole to give physical page
information and swap info - even if it's just your own pages.

Matt, can you explain what the point was of this whole thing? I'm really
_this_ close to just removing the POS right now. It's been a big source of
bugs, and it looks entirely pointless.

Linus
