#pragma section-numbers on #pragma keywords Linux, Kernel, Operative System, Linus Torvalds, Open Source, drivers #pragma description Summary of the changes and new features merged in the Linux Kernel during the 2.6.24 development Spam: Ulrich Drepper, the libc maintainer, has published a [[http://people.redhat.com/drepper/cpumemory.pdf|must-read paper]] about "What every programmer should know about memory" Linux kernel version 2.6.24 Released 24 January 2008 ([[http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/ChangeLog-2.6.24|full SCM git log]]) <> = Short overview (for news sites, etc) = 2.6.24 includes CPU "group scheduling", memory fragmentation avoidance, tickless support for x86-64/ppc and other architectures, many new wireless drivers and a new wireless configuration interface, SPI/SDIO MMC support, USB authorization, per-device dirty memory thresholds, support for PID and network namespaces, support for static probe markers, SELinux performance improvements, SATA link power management and port multiplier support, Large Receive Offload in network devices, memory hot-remove support, a new framework for controlling the idle processor power management, CIFS ACLs support, many new drivers and many other features and fixes. = Important things (AKA: ''the cool stuff'') = == CFS improvements == '''''Performance/size improvements''''' The CFS task scheduler [[http://kernelnewbies.org/Linux_2_6_23#head-f3a847a5aace97932f838027c93121321a6499e7|merged in Linux 2.6.23]] is getting [[http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/9/11/395|some microoptimization work]] in 2.6.24. 2.6.23's CFS context switching is more than 10% slower than the old task scheduler. With the optimization done in 2.6.24, CFS is now even a bit faster than the old task scheduler (which is quite fast already). The compiled size of the scheduler has also improved and now it's a bit smaller on UP and a lot smaller in SMP. '''''Fair Group Scheduling''''' You can read [[http://lwn.net/Articles/240474/|this recommended article]] about the Fair Group Scheduling feature. Another feature in the scheduler is Fair Group Scheduling. Normally the scheduler operates on individual tasks and strives to provide fair CPU time to each task. Sometimes, it may be desirable to group tasks and provide fair CPU time to each such task group. For example, it may be desirable to first provide fair CPU time to each user on the system and then to each task belonging to a user. In other words, given two users, one running one cpu-bound process and the other two cpu-bound processes, you may want to give 50% of CPU time to the first users and his task, and 50% to the other user, which will be shared between his two processes - 25% of CPU time for each. Group Scheduling provides the ability to choose partitions to support the previous scenario. At present, there are two (mutually exclusive) mechanisms to group tasks for CPU bandwidth control purpose: 1) Group scheduling based on user id, which is the case previously mentioned as example. This mechanism is configurable, which means you can have more CPU time than just a 50%/50% rule - for example, you can assign user root double the priority of other users. 2) Group scheduling. This mechanism (based in the "task control groups", see section 2.10) lets the administrator create arbitrary groups of tasks (ie: "multimedia", "compiling"), set how much CPU time 'priority' you want to give that group by catting the value to its cpu_share file, and then attach a PID to whatever task group you want. Documentation on how to use those two features can be found in [[http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=blob;f=Documentation/sched-design-CFS.txt;h=88bcb87673354302737be5bbaac5b8c049941d86;hb=HEAD|Documentation/sched-design-CFS.txt]]. '''''guest time reporting''''' Additionally, the task scheduler in 2.6.24 is adding a new "guest" field after "system" and "user" in /proc//stat, where it tracks how much CPU time a task is spending in running a 'virtual' CPU. == Tickless support for x86-64, PPC, UML, ARM, MIPS == The Tickless feature was [[http://kernelnewbies.org/Linux_2_6_21#head-8547911895fda9cdff32a94771c8f5706d66bba0|added in Linux 2.6.21]]. This feature allows the kernel to disable timer interrupts for longer, variable periods, saving some power and improving performance, especially in virtual guests. 2.6.24 adds tickless support to the widespread 64-bit x86 architecture, but also to PPC, the virtualized architecture UML, and some variants of ARM and MIPS. They join the already tickless supported x86-32, SPARC-64 and SH. == New wireless drivers and configuration interface == '''''New wireless configuration interface''''' In [[http://kernelnewbies.org/Linux_2_6_22|Linux 2.6.22]], Linux got a new wireless stack. This new stack is backwards compatible with the old ioctl-based configuration of the old stack. However, the new stack was designed to have a much better configuration interface, based on netlink. While the backwards compatibility isn't going away, all wireless configuration tools are recommended to have long-term plans to switch to the new interface. '''''Drivers''''' In Linux 2.6.22, the mac80211 (formerly d80211) wireless stack was [[http://kernelnewbies.org/Linux_2_6_22#head-1498b990e997cc0e95dbfa9047e7ebe8d84847cc|merged]], but not many drivers that use this new stack have been merged (only one). Linux 2.6.24 will have a lot of new wireless drivers using the new stack; 2.3 MB of source files in total: * iwlwifi driver for the Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG/BG Network Connection and Intel Wireless Wifi Link AGN (4965) adapters [[http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=b481de9ca074528fe8c429604e2777db8b89806a|(commit)]] * rt2x00 driver for Ralink wireless hardware (rt2400 pci/pcmcia, rt2500 pci/pcmcia, rt61 pci/pcmcia, rt2500 usb, rt73 usb).

These are PCI/mini-PCI/Cardbus 802.11b chips found in cards such as: Xterasys Cardbus XN-2411b, Blitz Netwave Point PC, Trendnet 221pc, Belkin F5d6001, SMC 2635W, Linksys WPC11 v1, Fiberline FL-WL-200X, 3com Office Connect (3CRSHPW796), Corega WLPCIB-11, SMC 2602W V2 EU, D-Link DWL-520 Revision C [[http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=cc0b88cf5ecf13cdd750f08e201ce8fadcdb601f|(commit)]] * b43 driver for modern BCM43xx devices. This driver supports the new BCM43xx IEEE 802.11G devices, but not the old IEEE 802.11B devices - those are supported by the b43legacy driver. This driver uses V4 firmware, which must be installed separately using b43-fwcutter [[http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=e4d6b7951812d98417feb10784e400e253caf633|(commit)]] * b43legacy driver for legacy BCM43xx devices from Broadcom (BCM4301 and BCM4303) and early model 802.11g chips (BCM4306 Ver. 2) used in the Linksys WPC54G V1 PCMCIA devices.

A known weakness of the Linux kernel is the memory fragmentation that the system faces after days without rebooting or after intense operations. This makes difficult to do "high-order" memory allocations (allocations larger than the native page size - 4 KB on x86). It's relatively easy to trigger those cases. For example a network driver may try to allocate 4 pages to store data received from the network. This allocation may not succeed despite there being plenty of free memory available, as there is no single uninterrupted block of memory big enough (fragmentation). For almost three years patient developers have been continually developing and improving the anti-fragmentation patches to improve the memory allocator and reduce the tendency to fragment. These efforts have been finally merged in 2.6.24. The purpose of this feature is to reduce external fragmentation by grouping pages of related types together. When pages are migrated (or reclaimed under memory pressure), large contiguous pages will be freed. Allocations are categorized by their ability to migrate. Tests show that about 60-70% of physical memory can be allocated on a desktop after a few days uptime. In benchmarks and stress tests, it has been found that 80% of memory is available as contiguous blocks at the end of the test. To compare, a standard kernel was getting < 1% of memory as large pages on a desktop and about 8-12% of memory as large pages at the end of stress tests. == SPI/SDIO support in the MMC layer == The MMC layer, which is the code which implements support for MMC/SD memory cards, is suffering one of the biggest transformations in its life, because it has been [[http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/9/24/37|heavily modified]] to get support for [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Digital_card#SDIO|SDIO]] and [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial_Peripheral_Interface_Bus|SPI]]. SDIO is an alias for "Secure Digital I/O", and it allows to use the SD card slot (in the devices that support SDIO, ie. PDAs, cell phones or laptops) to use "small devices designed for the SD form factor, like GPS receivers, Wi-Fi or Bluetooth adapters, modems, Ethernet adapters, barcode readers, IrDA adapters, FM radio tuners, TV tuners, RFID readers, digital cameras, or other mass storage media such as hard drives" (quote from the [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Digital_card#SDIO|Wikipedia entry]]). There are currently three working drivers for this new stack: sdio_uart, a driver for the standardised GPS interfaces; libertas_sdio, a driver for Marvell's 8686 Libertas wifi chip; and hci_sdio, a driver for the standardised bluetooth interface. SPI is required by SDIO, and it's a "bus" (like IDE, SATA, USB...) which is used to access a wide range of devices, but more importantly, some systems require to access MMC/SD cards using a SPI controller instead of using a "native" MMC/SD controller. This has a disadvantage of being relatively high overhead, but a compensating advantage of working on many systems without dedicated MMC/SD controllers. 2.6.24 includes support for SPI and a experimental "MMC/SD over SPI" driver. [[http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=6abd2c860e34add677de50e8b134f5af6f4b0893|(commit)]]] == USB authorization == As part of the efforts to make the USB layer ready for [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_USB|wireless USB]], Linux 2.6.24 is getting support for USB device authorization, which allows you to control if a USB device (wireless or not) can be used or not in a system. As of now, when a USB device is connected it is configured and its interfaces immediately made available to the users. With this modification, only if root authorizes the device to be configured will then it be possible to use it. Beside of providing an infrastructure to allow secure usage of wireless USB devices, this feature also allows to implement kiosk-style lockdown of USB devices, fully controlled by user space. Every USB device has a corresponding ''/sys/bus/usb/devices//authorized'' file. Writing ''' 1 ''' to that file authorizes a device to connect, '''0''' deauthorizes it. USB hosts can also set new devices connected to be deauthorized by writing '''0''' (or '''1''' to authorize) to ''/sys/bus/usb/devices/usb/authorized_default''. By default, wired USB devices are authorized by default to connect, and wireless USB hosts deauthorize by default all new connected devices (this is so because they need to do an authentication phase before authorizing). == Per-device dirty memory thresholds == You can read [[http://lwn.net/Articles/245600/|this recommended article]] about the "per-device dirty thresholds" feature. When a process writes data to the disk, the data is stored temporally in 'dirty' memory until the kernel decides to write the data to the disk ('cleaning' the memory used to store the data). A process can 'dirty' the memory faster than the data is written to the disk, so the kernel throttles processes when there's too much dirty memory around. The problem with this mechanism is that the dirty memory thresholds are global, the mechanism doesn't care if there are several storage devices in the system, much less if some of them are faster than others. There are a lot of scenarios where this design harms performance. For example, if there's a very slow storage device in the system (ex: a USB 1.0 disk, or a NFS mount over dialup), the thresholds are hit very quickly - not allowing other processes that may be working in much faster local disk to progress. Stacked block devices (ex: LVM/DM) are much worse and even deadlock-prone (check the LWN article). In 2.6.24, the dirty thresholds are per-device, not global. The limits are variable, depending on the writeout speed of each device. This improves the performance greatly in many situations. == PID and network namespaces == You can read [[http://lwn.net/Articles/256389/|this recommended article]], and [[http://lwn.net/Articles/259217/|this one]], about the "PID and network namespaces" feature. Usually, there's a global PID namespace for a whole Linux system: The list of processes contains all the processes running in the system. There's also a global view of the networking stack (routing tables and firewall rules, etc). However, [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operating_system-level_virtualization|operating-system virtualization]] like [[http://openvz.org|OpenVZ]] or [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux-VServer|Vserver]] need to have different views of the PID namespace and the networking stack. Linux 2.6.24 adds PID namespaces and basic support for network namespaces. They're used through the CLONE_NEWPID and CLONE_NEWNET clone() flags. == Large Receive Offload (LRO) support for TCP traffic == You can read [[http://lwn.net/Articles/243949/|this recommended article]] about the "Large Receive Offload" feature. LRO combines received tcp packets to a single larger tcp packet and passes them then to the network stack in order to increase performance (throughput). After many out-of-the-tree iterations, mainline Linux is getting support for this feature [[http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=71c87e0cedca843162206c698cfa02e5fea9e2e3|(commit)]], [[http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=1e6e9342d41ff80ced0ad5dfcf084926700cdfc5|(commit)]], [[http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=d4dc4ec9d84e0578b9bfbe56a11fafdb7cbac771|(commit)]] == Task Control Groups == There have been various proposals in the Linux arena for resource management/accounting and other task grouping subsystems in the kernel (Resgroups, User Beancounters, NSProxy cgroups, and others). Task Control Groups is the framework that is getting merged in 2.6.24 to fulfill the functionality that lead to the creation of such proposals. TCG can track and group processes into arbitrary "cgroups" and assign arbitrary state to those groups, in order to control its behaviour. The intention is that other subsystems hook into the generic cgroup support to provide new attributes for cgroups, such as accounting/limiting the resources which processes in a cgroup can access. For example, cpusets (see Documentation/cpusets.txt) allows you to associate a set of CPUs and a set of memory nodes with the tasks in each cgroup. The CFS group scheduling feature uses cgroups to control the CPU time that every cgroup can get. Other various resource management and virtualization/cgroup efforts can become task cgroup clients. The configuration interface is described in Documentation/cgroups.txt == Linux Kernel Markers == You can read [[http://lwn.net/Articles/245671/|this recommended article]] about the "Linux Kernel Markers" feature. The Linux Kernel Markers implement static probing points for the Linux kernel. Dynamic probing system like kprobes/dtrace can put probes pretty much anywhere. However, the scripts that dynamic probing points use can become quickly outdated, because a small change in the kernel may trigger a rewrite of the script, which needs to be maintained and updated separately, and will not work for all kernel versions. Thats why static probing points are useful, since they can be put directly into the kernel source code and hence they are always in sync with the kernel development. Static probing points apparently can also have some performance advantages. They've no performance costs when they're not being used. The kernel markers are a sort of "derivative" of the long-time external patchset "Linux Trace Toolkit" (LTT), which is a feature that has been around since [[http://www.opersys.com/LTT/news.html#18-11-1999|1999]]. The Kernel Markers are a feature needed for the [[http://lwn.net/Articles/245671/|SystemTap]] project. In this release, there are no probing points being included, but many will be certainly included in the future, and some tracking tools like blktrace will probably be ported to this kind of infrastructure in the future. == x86-32/64 arch reunification == You can read [[http://lwn.net/Articles/243704/|this recommended article]]. When support for the x86-64 AMD architecture was developed, it was decided to develop it as a "fork" of the traditional x86 architecture for comodity reasons. Many patches needed to patch a file in the i386 architecure directory, and another similar patch for the duplicated file in the x86_64 directory. It has been decided to unify both architectures in the same directory again. This reunification has not been done in a radical way. In this release, both architectures have been unified in arch/x86, but only in appearance. All the source files in i386 and x86-64 directories have been moved to arch/x86, but renaming them with "_32" and "_64" suffixes. Ex: arch/i386/kernel/reboot.c has been moved to arch/x86/kernel/reboot_32.c, and arch/x86_64/kernel/reboot.c has been moved to arch/x86/kernel/reboot_64.c. Makefiles have been modified accordingly. So for now the reunification has been pretty much just a relocation of all the files and adaptation of the build machinery to make it compile just as it'd have been compiled in the old separated directories, done mostly with scripts. In the future lots of those files will be unified and shared by both architectures, ex. reboot_32.c and reboot_64.c into reboot.c, and many files have already been unified in this release. Others will keep separated forever, due to the differences between both architectures. == New drivers == '''''Graphics''''' * Add the uvesafb driver. uvesafb is an enhanced version of vesafb. It uses a userspace helper (v86d) to execute calls to the x86 Video BIOS functions. The driver is not limited to any specific arch and whether it works on a given arch or not depends on that arch being supported by the userspace daemon [[http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=8bdb3a2d7df48b861972c4bfb58490853a228f51|(commit)]], [[http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=0a0b53f66043b4f4da728b391232de5e5d22f145|(commit)]] * Add a framebuffer driver for Blackfin BF54x framebuffer device driver [[http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=e9fa7c43aa74fae3a1db04092d2a51005f5b8a21|(commit)]] '''''SATA/IDE''''' * Add driver for bf548 on chip ATAPI controller.

nice framework that unifies quite a bit of code over all the arches, and it would be great if it could be the default so that the various forms of DISCONTIG and other variations on memory maps can be killed. So far what has hindered this are the additional lookups that SPARSEMEM introduces for virt_to_page and page_address.

When enabled in a cpuset (the default value) it tells the kernel scheduler that the scheduler should provide the normal load balancing on the CPUs in that cpuset, sometimes moving tasks from one CPU to a second CPU if the second CPU is less loaded and if that task is allowed to run there. When disabled (write "0" to the file) then it tells the kernel scheduler that load balancing is not required for the CPUs in that cpuset. This serves two purposes: 1) It provides a mechanism for real time isolation of some CPUs, and 2) it can be used to improve performance on systems with many CPUs by supporting configurations in which load balancing is not done across all CPUs at once, but rather only done in several smaller disjoint sets of CPUs
