* watchdog: make sure the watchdog thread gets CPU on loaded systemMichal Hocko2012-03-231-4/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the system is loaded while hotplugging a CPU we might end up with a bogus hardlockup detection. This has been seen during LTP pounder test executed in parallel with hotplug test. The main problem is that enable_watchdog (called when CPU is brought up) registers perf event which periodically checks per-cpu counter (hrtimer_interrupts), updated from a hrtimer callback, but the hrtimer is fired from the kernel thread. This means that while we already do check for the hard lockup the kernel thread might be sitting on the runqueue with zillions of tasks so there is nobody to update the value we rely on and so we KABOOM. Let's fix this by boosting the watchdog thread priority before we wake it up rather than when it's already running. This still doesn't handle a case where we have the same amount of high prio FIFO tasks but that doesn't seem to be common. The current implementation doesn't handle that case anyway so this is not worse at least. Unfortunately, we cannot start perf counter from the watchdog thread because we could miss a real lock up and also we cannot start the hrtimer watchdog_enable because we there is no way (at least I don't know any) to start a hrtimer from a different CPU.

* kernel/exit.c: if init dies, log a signal which killed it, if anyDenys Vlasenko2012-03-231-2/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I just received another user's pleas for help when their init mysteriously died. I again explained that they need to check whether it died because of bad instruction, a segv, or something else. Which was an annoying detour into writing a trivial C program to spawn his init and print its exit code: http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/busybox/2012-January/077172.html I hear you saying "just test it under /bin/sh". Well, the crashing init _was_ /bin/sh. Which prompted me to make kernel do this first step automatically. We can print exit code, which makes it possible to see that death was from e.g. SIGILL without writing test programs.

* prctl: add PR_{SET,GET}_CHILD_SUBREAPER to allow simple process supervisionLennart Poettering2012-03-235-5/+54
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Userspace service managers/supervisors need to track their started services. Many services daemonize by double-forking and get implicitly re-parented to PID 1. The service manager will no longer be able to receive the SIGCHLD signals for them, and is no longer in charge of reaping the children with wait(). All information about the children is lost at the moment PID 1 cleans up the re-parented processes. With this prctl, a service manager process can mark itself as a sort of 'sub-init', able to stay as the parent for all orphaned processes created by the started services. All SIGCHLD signals will be delivered to the service manager. Receiving SIGCHLD and doing wait() is in cases of a service-manager much preferred over any possible asynchronous notification about specific PIDs, because the service manager has full access to the child process data in /proc and the PID can not be re-used until the wait(), the service-manager itself is in charge of, has happened. As a side effect, the relevant parent PID information does not get lost by a double-fork, which results in a more elaborate process tree and 'ps' output: before: # ps afx 253 ?

Sl 0:00 \_ /usr/libexec/packagekitd This prctl is orthogonal to PID namespaces. PID namespaces are isolated from each other, while a service management process usually requires the services to live in the same namespace, to be able to talk to each other. Users of this will be the systemd per-user instance, which provides init-like functionality for the user's login session and D-Bus, which activates bus services on-demand. Both need init-like capabilities to be able to properly keep track of the services they start. Many thanks to Oleg for several rounds of review and insights.

* drivers/staging/telephony/ixj.c: fix warning about sequence pointsUwe Kleine-König2012-03-231-19/+38
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the statement j->caplist[j->caps].handle = j->caps++; there is no sequence point between the usage of j->caps on the LHS of the assignment and the incrementation on its RHS. So it's not defined in Standard C if j->caps is already incremented when used on the LHS even though the postfix ++ operator is used. To properly fix that the incrementation has to be done in a separate expression.

Also, use the new helper function introduced in commit 5e6292c0f28f ("signal: add block_sigmask() for adding sigmask to current->blocked") which centralises the code for updating current->blocked after successfully delivering a signal and reduces the amount of duplicate code across architectures.

Unfortunately, it didn't always work as expected. When using an ioctl (like ifconfig does) to set the IP address and netmask, 2 separate ioctls are actually called to set the IP and netmask if the mask chosen doesn't match the standard mask for that class of address. The first ioctl did not have a mask that matched the one in the primary address and would still cause the device address to be overwritten. The second ioctl that was called to set the mask would then detect as secondary and ignored, but the damage was already done. This was not an issue when using an application that used netlink sockets as the setting of IP and netmask came down at once. The inconsistent behavior between those two interfaces was something that needed to be resolved. While I was thinking about how I wanted to resolve this, Ralf Zeidler came with a patch that resolved this on a RHEL kernel by keeping a full shadow of the entries in dev->ifa_list for the bonding device and vlan devices in the bonding driver. I didn't like the duplication of the list as I want to see the 'bonding' struct and code shrink rather than grow, but liked the general idea. As the Subject indicates this patch drops the master_ip and vlan_ip elements from the 'bonding' and 'vlan_entry' structs, respectively. This can be done because a device's address-list is now traversed to determine the optimal source IP address for ARP requests and for checks to see if the bonding device has a particular IP address. This code could have all be contained inside the bonding driver, but it made more sense to me to EXPORT and call inet_confirm_addr since it did exactly what was needed. I tested this and a backported patch and everything works as expected. Ralf also helped with verification of the backported patch.

The patch fixes the use-after-free problem by increasing URB reference count with skb queue lock held before calling usb_unlink_urb, so the URB won't be freed until return from usb_unlink_urb.

| * xfrm: Access the replay notify functions via the registered callbacksSteffen Klassert2012-03-221-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We call the wrong replay notify function when we use ESN replay handling. This leads to the fact that we don't send notifications if we use ESN. Fix this by calling the registered callbacks instead of xfrm_replay_notify(). Signed-off-by: Steffen Klassert <steffen.klassert@secunet.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

| * RDS: use gfp flags from caller in conn_alloc()Dan Carpenter2012-03-223-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We should be using the gfp flags the caller specified here, instead of GFP_KERNEL. I think this might be a bugfix, depending on the value of "sock->sk->sk_allocation" when we call rds_conn_create_outgoing() in rds_sendmsg(). Otherwise, it's just a cleanup.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This function takes a GFP flags as a parameter, but they are never used. We don't take a lock in this function so there is no reason to prefer GFP_ATOMIC over the caller's GFP flags. There is only one caller, cipso_v4_map_cat_rng_ntoh(), and it passes GFP_ATOMIC as the GFP flags so this doesn't change how the code works. It's just a cleanup.

| * tg3: Fix RSS ring refill race conditionMichael Chan2012-03-212-3/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The RSS feature in tg3 hardware has only one rx producer ring for all RSS rings. NAPI vector 1 is special and handles the refilling of the rx producer ring on behalf of all RSS rings. There is a race condition between these RSS NAPIs and the NAPI[1]. If NAPI[1] finishes checking for refill and then another RSS ring empties the rx producer ring before NAPI[1] exits NAPI, the chip will be completely out of SKBs in the rx producer ring. We fix this by adding a flag tp->rx_refill and rely on napi_schedule()/ napi_complete() to help synchronize it to close the race condition. Update driver version to 3.123.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On x86, if CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA is set, one cannot set breakpoints via KDB.

This patch adds an printk message to the breakpoint failure case, in order to provide suggestions about how to use the debugger.

Repeats look something like 0x1c 0x1c .... 0x9c 2) Use of 'keypad enter' gives warning message and leaks the ENTER break/make code out if KDB exits. KP ENTER repeats look someting like 0xe0 0x1c 0xe0 0x1c ... 0xe0 0x9c. 3) Lag on the order of seconds between "break" and "make" when expecting the enter "break" code. Seen under virtualized environments such as VMware ESX. The existing special enter handler tries to glob the enter break code, but this fails if the other (KP) enter was used, or if there was a key repeat. It also fails if you mashed some keys along with enter, and you ended up with a non-enter make or non-enter break code coming after the enter make code. So first, we modify the handler to handle these cases. But performing these actions on every enter is annoying since now you can't hold ENTER down to scroll <more>d messages in KDB. Since this special behaviour is only necessary to handle the exiting KDB ('g' + ENTER) without leaking scancodes to the OS. This cleanup needs to get executed anytime the kdb_main loop exits. Tested on QEMU. Set a bp on atkbd.c to verify no scan code was leaked.
