The aim of this tree is to collect patches that reduce kernel disk and memory footprint as well as tools for working on small systems. Target users are things like embedded systems, small or legacy desktop folks, and handhelds. Latest release includes: - various compile fixes for last release - actually include Andi Kleen's bloat-o-meter this time - optional mempool removal - optional semaphore uninlining - optional linux socket filter - reduced flow cache - optional device multicast management - optional rtnetlink/af_netlink - optional IGMP - optional POSIX timer API - inline cleanup in fs/namei.c The patch can be found at: http://selenic.com/tiny/2.6.1-rc1-tiny2.patch.bz2 http://selenic.com/tiny/2.6.1-rc1-tiny2-broken-out.tar.bz2 Webpage for your bookmarking pleasure: http://selenic.com/tiny-about/ -- Matt Mackall : http://www.selenic.com : Linux development and consulting ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 35+ messages in thread

Its about 4K bigger for SMP, but thats with quite a bit of init stuff to set up the sched domains. It also does HT scheduling, and some more of that could be ifdefed I guess (its already 1-2K smaller than Ingo's shared runqueues). If you're talking about my interactivity stuff, then that is very little difference as well, maybe a few tens of bytes smaller. The scheduler is pretty lean. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 35+ messages in thread

An updated version of this patch is below. > Wichert. cu Adrian Changes: - changed the i386 CPU selection from a choice to single options for every cpu - X86_GENERIC is no longer required - renamed the M* variables to CPU_*, this is needed to ask the users upgrading from older kernels instead of silently changing the semantics - added Pentium M and Pentium-4 M - X86_GOOD_APIC -> X86_BAD_APIC - AMD Elan is a different subarch, you can't configure a kernel that runs on both the AMD Elan and other i386 CPUs - added optimizing CFLAGS for the AMD Elan - gcc 2.95 supports -march=k6 (no need for check_gcc) - help text changes/updates TODO: - module versioning diffstat output: arch/i386/Kconfig | 273 ++++++++++++--------------- arch/i386/Makefile | 58 +++-- arch/i386/boot/setup.S | 2 arch/i386/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/Kconfig | 2 arch/i386/lib/mmx.c | 2 arch/i386/mach-voyager/voyager_smp.c | 6 arch/x86_64/Kconfig | 4 drivers/serial/8250.h | 2 include/asm-i386/apic.h | 4 include/asm-i386/bugs.h | 7 include/asm-i386/module.h | 4 include/asm-i386/processor.h | 4 include/asm-i386/timex.h | 2 include/asm-x86_64/apic.h | 2 14 files changed, 186 insertions(+), 186 deletions(-) --- linux-2.6.0-test5-mm4/include/asm-i386/processor.h.old 2003-09-25 14:28:07.000000000 +0200 +++ linux-2.6.0-test5-mm4/include/asm-i386/processor.h 2003-09-25 14:28:16.000000000 +0200 @@ -555,7 +555,7 @@ #define K7_NOP7 ".byte 0x8D,0x04,0x05,0,0,0,0\n" #define K7_NOP8 K7_NOP7 ASM_NOP1 -#ifdef CONFIG_MK8 +#ifdef CONFIG_CPU_ONLY_K8 #define ASM_NOP1 K8_NOP1 #define ASM_NOP2 K8_NOP2 #define ASM_NOP3 K8_NOP3 @@ -564,7 +564,7 @@ #define ASM_NOP6 K8_NOP6 #define ASM_NOP7 K8_NOP7 #define ASM_NOP8 K8_NOP8 -#elif defined(CONFIG_MK7) +#elif defined(CONFIG_CPU_ONLY_K7) #define ASM_NOP1 K7_NOP1 #define ASM_NOP2 K7_NOP2 #define ASM_NOP3 K7_NOP3 --- linux-2.6.0-test5-mm4/drivers/serial/8250.h.old 2003-09-25 14:28:07.000000000 +0200 +++ linux-2.6.0-test5-mm4/drivers/serial/8250.h 2003-09-25 14:28:16.000000000 +0200 @@ -44,7 +44,7 @@ #undef SERIAL_DEBUG_PCI -#if defined(__i386__) && (defined(CONFIG_M386) || defined(CONFIG_M486)) +#if defined(__i386__) && (defined(CONFIG_CPU_386) || defined(CONFIG_CPU_486)) #define SERIAL_INLINE #endif --- linux-2.6.0-test5-mm4/arch/i386/boot/setup.S.old 2003-09-25 14:28:07.000000000 +0200 +++ linux-2.6.0-test5-mm4/arch/i386/boot/setup.S 2003-09-25 14:28:16.000000000 +0200 @@ -755,7 +755,7 @@ # AMD Elan bug fix by Robert Schwebel. # -#if defined(CONFIG_MELAN) +#if defined(CONFIG_X86_ELAN) movb $0x02, %al # alternate A20 gate outb %al, $0x92 # this works on SC410/SC520 a20_elan_wait: --- linux-2.6.0-test5-mm4/include/asm-i386/timex.h.old 2003-09-25 14:28:07.000000000 +0200 +++ linux-2.6.0-test5-mm4/include/asm-i386/timex.h 2003-09-25 14:28:16.000000000 +0200 @@ -12,7 +12,7 @@ #ifdef CONFIG_X86_PC9800 extern int CLOCK_TICK_RATE; #else -#ifdef CONFIG_MELAN +#ifdef CONFIG_X86_ELAN # define CLOCK_TICK_RATE 1189200 /* AMD Elan has different frequency! */ #else # define CLOCK_TICK_RATE 1193182 /* Underlying HZ */ --- linux-2.6.0-test5-mm4/arch/i386/lib/mmx.c.old 2003-09-25 14:28:07.000000000 +0200 +++ linux-2.6.0-test5-mm4/arch/i386/lib/mmx.c 2003-09-25 14:28:16.000000000 +0200 @@ -121,7 +121,7 @@ return p; } -#ifdef CONFIG_MK7 +#ifdef CONFIG_CPU_ONLY_K7 /* * The K7 has streaming cache bypass load/store.

* [-mm patch] better i386 CPU selection 2004-01-11 3:13 ` Adrian Bunk @ 2004-01-14 20:49 ` Adrian Bunk 0 siblings, 0 replies; 35+ messages in thread From: Adrian Bunk @ 2004-01-14 20:49 UTC (permalink / raw) To: Nick Piggin, Matt Mackall, linux-kernel, Andrew Morton Below is the patch against -mm3 (-mm3 already contains some small patches that were formerly included in ths patch). @Andrew: Could you include it in one -mm patch to give it a bit more testing? This patch changes the way the CPUs are selected from the current "select a reasonable setting that supports all your CPUs, and for further optimizations for more than one CPU type you might also want to enable X86_GENERIC" to "select all CPUs your kernel should support" which is a better understandable semantics for users (= people configuring a kernel). As a side effect, further optimizations are possible based on this patch, but they are _not_ included. Changes: - changed the i386 CPU selection from a choice to single options for every cpu - X86_GENERIC is no longer required - renamed the M* variables to CPU_*, this is needed to ask the users upgrading from older kernels instead of silently changing the semantics - X86_GOOD_APIC -> X86_BAD_APIC - help text changes/updates TODO: - module versioning diffstat output: arch/i386/Kconfig | 251 +++++++++++---------------- arch/i386/Makefile | 59 ++++-- arch/i386/lib/mmx.c | 2 arch/i386/mach-voyager/voyager_smp.c | 6 arch/x86_64/Kconfig | 4 drivers/serial/8250.h | 2 include/asm-i386/apic.h | 4 include/asm-i386/bugs.h | 7 include/asm-i386/module.h | 2 include/asm-i386/processor.h | 4 include/asm-x86_64/apic.h | 2 11 files changed, 159 insertions(+), 184 deletions(-) --- linux-2.6.0-test5-mm4/include/asm-i386/processor.h.old 2003-09-25 14:28:07.000000000 +0200 +++ linux-2.6.0-test5-mm4/include/asm-i386/processor.h 2003-09-25 14:28:16.000000000 +0200 @@ -555,7 +555,7 @@ #define K7_NOP7 ".byte 0x8D,0x04,0x05,0,0,0,0\n" #define K7_NOP8 K7_NOP7 ASM_NOP1 -#ifdef CONFIG_MK8 +#ifdef CONFIG_CPU_ONLY_K8 #define ASM_NOP1 K8_NOP1 #define ASM_NOP2 K8_NOP2 #define ASM_NOP3 K8_NOP3 @@ -564,7 +564,7 @@ #define ASM_NOP6 K8_NOP6 #define ASM_NOP7 K8_NOP7 #define ASM_NOP8 K8_NOP8 -#elif defined(CONFIG_MK7) +#elif defined(CONFIG_CPU_ONLY_K7) #define ASM_NOP1 K7_NOP1 #define ASM_NOP2 K7_NOP2 #define ASM_NOP3 K7_NOP3 --- linux-2.6.0-test5-mm4/drivers/serial/8250.h.old 2003-09-25 14:28:07.000000000 +0200 +++ linux-2.6.0-test5-mm4/drivers/serial/8250.h 2003-09-25 14:28:16.000000000 +0200 @@ -44,7 +44,7 @@ #undef SERIAL_DEBUG_PCI -#if defined(__i386__) && (defined(CONFIG_M386) || defined(CONFIG_M486)) +#if defined(__i386__) && (defined(CONFIG_CPU_386) || defined(CONFIG_CPU_486)) #define SERIAL_INLINE #endif --- linux-2.6.0-test5-mm4/arch/i386/lib/mmx.c.old 2003-09-25 14:28:07.000000000 +0200 +++ linux-2.6.0-test5-mm4/arch/i386/lib/mmx.c 2003-09-25 14:28:16.000000000 +0200 @@ -121,7 +121,7 @@ return p; } -#ifdef CONFIG_MK7 +#ifdef CONFIG_CPU_ONLY_K7 /* * The K7 has streaming cache bypass load/store.

Can't you just configure it for some lower denominator such as 386?

The only patch where I'd say this really applies to is better-i386-cpu-selection.patch . I'm really happy that you added it in the latest -mm and I'm even more happy that I haven't yet heard of any major breakage it has caused. But it's your decision whether you like this patch or prefer to drop it. > Remind me again, what did they buy us? The main effect is that better-i386-cpu-selection.patch makes it easier for people who configure kernels that should work on different CPU types. A user (= person compiling his own kernel) does no longer need any deeper knowledge when e.g. configuring a kernel that should run on both an Athlon and a Pentium 4 - he simply selects all CPUs he wants to support in his kernel. As a side effect, this patch allows further optimizations based on the fact that e.g. a kernel for an i386 no longer needs to support an Athlon which can be used to omit support for non-selected CPUs [1]. cu Adrian [1] e.g. there's no need to include arch/i386/kernel/cpu/amd.c in your kernel if the kernel should only run on a 386; I made two such example patches that are _way_ too ugly for merging but show that this CPU selection scheme makes some more space savings possible -- "Is there not promise of rain?"

What problems exacly are you referring to? Besides the AMD Elan cpufreq driver I see nothing where CONFIG_MELAN gave you any real difference (except your highest goal is to avoid a recompilation when switching from the Pentium 4 to the AMD Elan - but I doubt the really "prevents development"). But I'm not religious about this issue. Let Robert decide, the Elan support is his child. > > > - added optimizing CFLAGS for the AMD Elan > > There are no such different "optimizations" for ELAN.

The only reason why I sent the patch to make the AMD Elan a separate subarch was the CLOCK_TICK_RATE #ifdef in include/asm-i386/timex.h . It should be possible to change it to a variable (as with CONFIG_X86_PC9800) if both the Elan and a different cpu are supported if this is really a required use.

All that's needed is the ability to set the clock divisor to a slightly different value than the default. It doesn't need some special architecture because that will prevent setting other things like SMP. And yes, the embedded AMDs we use here have the SMP spin-locks because it is necessary to completely test the operating system independently of the target system. This is done by running my development workstation, a Pentium with two CPUs with the exact same OS. The modules are, of course, different, actually mostly missing on the target system because only Analogic-specific hardware interface modules are used plus the RAM disk. I just set my workstation time when I log in in the morning. In a whole day it's only off by: Script started on Tue Jan 20 17:25:37 2004 $ nettime time-a.timefreq.bldrdoc.gov Reference time = Tue Jan 20 17:22:26 2004 My time = Tue Jan 20 17:25:54 2004 Difference = 208 seconds Time set by time-a.timefreq.bldrdoc.gov (132.163.4.101) $ exit exit Script done on Tue Jan 20 17:22:36 2004 208 seconds. As long as I don't change it during a compile, everything is fine. So, again, please don't change anything that prevents me and others from using the AMD operating system on an ordinary workstation. Otherwise, I'll have to make some stupid embedded test software that exercises the OS on the AMD to get by the FDA requirements for independent testing of the OS. I would also have to re-certify our testing procedure. Cheers, Dick Johnson Penguin : Linux version 2.4.24 on an i686 machine (797.90 BogoMips).

This is a VERY bad idea. If you would take a look at linux/time.h at the code to convert jiffies<->timeval/timespec you will see some very long expressions. This code is FAST but only because of constants which allow gcc to do most of the work at compile time. If you change CLOCK_TICK_RATE this will NOT be true and a lot of work will be done at run time. It might be instructive to compile one of these conversions and look at the cpp output. Last time I looked it was about 1/2 page of wall to wall expression which reduces to one MPY and shift (or there about). > -- George Anzinger george@mvista.com High-res-timers: http://sourceforge.net/projects/high-res-timers/ Preemption patch: http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/rml ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 35+ messages in thread

I like this stuff, but I think the first two bits are probably better done in mainline proper, perhaps Andrew will consider them now that 2.6.0 is out. The -tiny approach is to make small tweaks on stuff without diverging far from the mainline infrastructure. I'm trying to keep most of the patches independent.

So a selection of 386 means you have to keep everything. This gets a bit hairy when you select eg. Pentium 4, and try to work out whether K7 should be supported or not...

On the other hand, the existence of pre-allocated mempools can greatly increase the likelihood of starvation, oom, and deadlock on the rest of the system, especially as it becomes a greater percentage of the total free memory on a small system. In other words, I had to cut this corner to make running in 2M work with my config. When I merge CONFIG_BLOCK, it'll be more generally useful. For the sake of our other readers, I'll point out that mempool doesn't intrinisically reduce deadlock odds to zero unless we have a hard limit on requests in flight that's strictly less than pool size. -- Matt Mackall : http://www.selenic.com : Linux development and consulting ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 35+ messages in thread

Maybe it would make more sense to have CONFIG_MEMPOOL=n just remove the mempool API entirely and have it imply CONFIG_BLOCK=n, CONFIG_NFS_FS=n, and CONFIG_NFSD=n? Just a thought.

Just a thought. NFS is a good example of why the guarantees of mempool are being overstated - it still needs to allocate SKBs to make progress and preallocating a pool for other data structures can make that fail where it otherwise might not. The pool size for NFS (32) is also completely arbitrary as far as I can tell. > It seems like a reasonalbe thing to omit for some tiny configs that don't > need it, but if the API is provided it should probably work as expected. The API _does_ work.

If you are in a hardware situation where you actually care about the permanent size of that mempool, then you're barking up entirely the wrong tree: there is a hell of a lot more memory to reclaim from not having to build up all those nfs_page lists in the first place. i.e. Rip out the entire asynchronous NFS read/write support, not just the mempools. As for the usefulness of the mempools in the situation where you have asynchronous I/O: I agree that the socket layer screws any chance of a guarantee. So does the server if it goes down, the network itself can screw you,.... All in all, it is surprising how few guarantees NFS offers you. I therefore see the mempools as more of an optimization that mainly avoid sleeping under a certain limited set of "reasonable" circumstances.

That's not true, depends entirely on usage. It's not a magic wand. And you don't need a hard limit, you only need progress guarentee. Typically just a single pre-allocated object can make you 100% deadlock free, if stacking is not involved. So for most cases, I think it would be much better if you just hard wired min_nr to 1, that would move you from 90% to 99% safe :-) -- Jens Axboe ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 35+ messages in thread
