| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: fix hung task with certain (non-default) rt-limit settings Corey Hickey reported that on using setuid to change the uid of a rt process, the process would be unkillable and not be running. This is because there was no rt runtime for that user group. Add in a check to see if a user can attach an rt task to its task group. On failure, return EINVAL, which is also returned in CONFIG_CGROUP_SCHED.

| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes a bug located by Vegard Nossum with the aid of kmemcheck, updated based on review comments from Nick Piggin, Ingo Molnar, and Andrew Morton. And cleans up the variable-name and function-name language. ;-) The boot CPU runs in the context of its idle thread during boot-up. During this time, idle_cpu(0) will always return nonzero, which will fool Classic and Hierarchical RCU into deciding that a large chunk of the boot-up sequence is a big long quiescent state. This in turn causes RCU to prematurely end grace periods during this time. This patch changes the rcutree.c and rcuclassic.c rcu_check_callbacks() function to ignore the idle task as a quiescent state until the system has started up the scheduler in rest_init(), introducing a new non-API function rcu_idle_now_means_idle() to inform RCU of this transition. RCU maintains an internal rcu_idle_cpu_truthful variable to track this state, which is then used by rcu_check_callback() to determine if it should believe idle_cpu(). Because this patch has the effect of disallowing RCU grace periods during long stretches of the boot-up sequence, this patch also introduces Josh Triplett's UP-only optimization that makes synchronize_rcu() be a no-op if num_online_cpus() returns 1. This allows boot-time code that calls synchronize_rcu() to proceed normally. Note, however, that RCU callbacks registered by call_rcu() will likely queue up until later in the boot sequence. Although rcuclassic and rcutree can also use this same optimization after boot completes, rcupreempt must restrict its use of this optimization to the portion of the boot sequence before the scheduler starts up, given that an rcupreempt RCU read-side critical section may be preeempted. In addition, this patch takes Nick Piggin's suggestion to make the system_state global variable be __read_mostly. Changes since v4: o Changes the name of the introduced function and variable to be less emotional. ;-) Changes since v3: o WARN_ON(nr_context_switches() > 0) to verify that RCU switches out of boot-time mode before the first context switch, as suggested by Nick Piggin. Changes since v2: o Created rcu_blocking_is_gp() internal-to-RCU API that determines whether a call to synchronize_rcu() is itself a grace period. o The definition of rcu_blocking_is_gp() for rcuclassic and rcutree checks to see if but a single CPU is online. o The definition of rcu_blocking_is_gp() for rcupreempt checks to see both if but a single CPU is online and if the system is still in early boot. This allows rcupreempt to again work correctly if running on a single CPU after booting is complete. o Added check to rcupreempt's synchronize_sched() for there being but one online CPU. Tested all three variants both SMP and !SMP, booted fine, passed a short rcutorture test on both x86 and Power.

This feature works by emulating a serial port, and it is detected by kernel as a normal 8250 port. However, this emulation is not perfect, as also noticed on changeset 7500b1f602aad75901774a67a687ee985d85893f. Before this patch, the kernel were trying to check if the serial TX is capable of work using IRQ's. This were done with a code similar this: serial_outp(up, UART_IER, UART_IER_THRI); lsr = serial_in(up, UART_LSR); iir = serial_in(up, UART_IIR); serial_outp(up, UART_IER, 0); if (lsr & UART_LSR_TEMT && iir & UART_IIR_NO_INT) up->bugs |= UART_BUG_TXEN; This works fine for other 8250 ports, but, on 8250-emulated SoL port, the chip is a little lazy to down UART_IIR_NO_INT at UART_IIR register. Due to that, UART_BUG_TXEN is sometimes enabled. However, as TX IRQ keeps working, and the TX polling is now enabled, the driver miss-interprets the IRQ received later, hanging up the machine until a key is pressed at the serial console. This is the 6 version of this patch. Previous versions were trying to introduce a large enough delay between serial_outp and serial_in(up, UART_IIR), but not taking forever. However, the needed delay couldn't be safely determined. At the experimental tests, a delay of 1us solves most of the cases, but still hangs sometimes. Increasing the delay to 5us was better, but still doesn't solve. A very high delay of 50 ms seemed to work every time. However, poking around with delays and pray for it to be enough doesn't seem to be a good approach, even for a quirk. So, instead of playing with random large arbitrary delays, let's just disable UART_BUG_TXEN for all SoL ports.

Currently there is code which memset()s the memory region of an object before releasing it back to the slab allocator to make sure security-sensitive data are really zeroed out after use. These callsites can then just use kzfree() which saves some code, makes users greppable and allows for a stupid destructor that isn't necessarily aware of the actual object size.

In the case pread this assumption is broken and we do the wrong thing when presented with pread. To solve this I introduce an offset cache inside of struct seq_file so we know where our logical file position is. Then in seq_read if we try to read from another offset we reset our data structures and attempt to go to the offset user space wanted.
