* sched: delayed cleanup of user_structKay Sievers2009-06-151-28/+39
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | During bootup performance tracing we see repeated occurrences of /sys/kernel/uid/* events for the same uid, leading to a, in this case, rather pointless userspace processing for the same uid over and over. This is usually caused by tools which change their uid to "nobody", to run without privileges to read data supplied by untrusted users. This change delays the execution of the (already existing) scheduled work, to cleanup the uid after one second, so the allocated and announced uid can possibly be re-used by another process. This is the current behavior, where almost every invocation of a binary, which changes the uid, creates two events: $ read START < /sys/kernel/uevent_seqnum; \ for i in `seq 100`; do su --shell=/bin/true bin; done; \ read END < /sys/kernel/uevent_seqnum; \ echo $(($END - $START)) 178 With the delayed cleanup, we get only two events, and userspace finishes a bit faster too: $ read START < /sys/kernel/uevent_seqnum; \ for i in `seq 100`; do su --shell=/bin/true bin; done; \ read END < /sys/kernel/uevent_seqnum; \ echo $(($END - $START)) 1 Acked-by: Dhaval Giani <dhaval@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

| * timers: Logic to move non pinned timersArun R Bharadwaj2009-05-134-5/+80
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * Arun R Bharadwaj <arun@linux.vnet.ibm.com> [2009-04-16 12:11:36]: This patch migrates all non pinned timers and hrtimers to the current idle load balancer, from all the idle CPUs. Timers firing on busy CPUs are not migrated. While migrating hrtimers, care should be taken to check if migrating a hrtimer would result in a latency or not. So we compare the expiry of the hrtimer with the next timer interrupt on the target cpu and migrate the hrtimer only if it expires *after* the next interrupt on the target cpu. So, added a clockevents_get_next_event() helper function to return the next_event on the target cpu's clock_event_device.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * Arun R Bharadwaj <arun@linux.vnet.ibm.com> [2009-04-16 12:11:36]: This patch creates a new framework for identifying cpu-pinned timers and hrtimers. This framework is needed because pinned timers are expected to fire on the same CPU on which they are queued. So it is essential to identify these and not migrate them, in case there are any. For regular timers, the currently existing add_timer_on() can be used queue pinned timers and subsequently mod_timer_pinned() can be used to modify the 'expires' field. For hrtimers, new modes HRTIMER_ABS_PINNED and HRTIMER_REL_PINNED are added to queue cpu-pinned hrtimer.

| * timers: allow deferrable timers for intervals tv2-tv5 to be deferredJon Hunter2009-05-021-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the current kernel implementation only kernel timers for time interval tv1 are being deferred. This patch allows any timer that is configured as deferrable to be defer regardless of time interval. This patch was previously discussed in http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=123196343531966&w=2 and was acked by Venki Pallipadi, the author of the original deferrable timer patch.

Doing so will likely hang a system. Correct this by filtering non HRT clocksources from available_clocksources and not accepting non HRT clocksources with HRT enabled.

Rather than go through a boring list of name changes, suffice it to say that in the end we have a bunch of pairs of functions: device_resume_noirq dpm_resume_noirq device_resume dpm_resume device_complete dpm_complete device_suspend_noirq dpm_suspend_noirq device_suspend dpm_suspend device_prepare dpm_prepare in which device_X does the X operation on a single device and dpm_X invokes device_X for all devices in the dpm_list. In addition, the old dpm_power_up and device_resume_noirq have been combined into a single function (dpm_resume_noirq). Lastly, dpm_suspend_start and dpm_resume_end are the renamed versions of the former top-level device_suspend and device_resume routines.

The new function names are chosen to show that the functions are responsible for calling the _noirq() versions to finalize the suspend/resume operation. The current function names do not perform power down/up anymore so the names may be misleading. Global function renames: - device_power_down() -> device_suspend_noirq() - device_power_up() -> device_resume_noirq() Static function renames: - suspend_device_noirq() -> __device_suspend_noirq() - resume_device_noirq() -> __device_resume_noirq() Signed-off-by: Magnus Damm <damm@igel.co.jp> Acked-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de> Acked-by: Len Brown <lenb@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

We allow growing the structure by appending fields at the end by specifying the full structure size inside it. When a new kernel sees a smaller (old) structure, it will 0 pad the tail. When an old kernel sees a larger (new) structure, it will verify the tail consists of 0s, otherwise fail. If we fail due to a size-mismatch, we return -E2BIG and write the kernel's native attribe size back into the provided structure. Furthermore, add some attribute verification, so that we'll fail counter creation when unknown bits are present (PERF_SAMPLE, PERF_FORMAT, or in the __reserved fields). (This ABI detail is introduced while keeping the existing syscall ABI.)

These could cause future problems if other modules get loaded into that memory and cause an exception as we'd see the wrong fixup. The only case I know of is kvm-intel.ko (when CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=n). Amerigo fixed this long-standing FIXME in the x86 version, but this patch is more general. This implements trim_init_extable(); most archs are simple since they use the standard lib/extable.c sort code. Alpha and IA64 use relative addresses in their fixups, so thier trimming is a slight variation. Sparc32 is unique; it doesn't seem to define ARCH_HAS_SORT_EXTABLE, yet it defines its own sort_extable() which overrides the one in lib. It doesn't sort, so we have to mark deleted entries instead of actually trimming them.
