sched_domain iterations needs to be protected by rcu_read_lock() now,
this patch adds another two places which needs the rcu lock, which is
spotted by following suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage warnings.
kernel/sched_rt.c:1244 invoked rcu_dereference_check() without protection!
kernel/sched_stats.h:41 invoked rcu_dereference_check() without protection!

Upon creation, kthreads are in TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE state, which can
result in softlockup warnings. Because some of RCU's kthreads can
legitimately be idle indefinitely, start them in TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE
state in order to avoid those warnings.

It is not necessary to use waitqueues for the RCU kthreads because
we always know exactly which thread is to be awakened. In addition,
wake_up() only issues an actual wakeup when there is a thread waiting on
the queue, which was why there was an extra explicit wake_up_process()
to get the RCU kthreads started.
Eliminating the waitqueues (and wake_up()) in favor of wake_up_process()
eliminates the need for the initial wake_up_process() and also shrinks
the data structure size a bit. The wakeup logic is placed in a new
rcu_wait() macro.

This commit switches manipulations of the rcu_node ->wakemask field
to atomic operations, which allows rcu_cpu_kthread_timer() to avoid
acquiring the rcu_node lock. This should avoid the following lockdep

(Note: this was reverted, and is now being re-applied in pieces, with
this being the fifth and final piece. See below for the reason that
it is now felt to be safe to re-apply this.)
Commit d09b62d fixed grace-period synchronization, but left some smp_mb()
invocations in rcu_process_callbacks() that are no longer needed, but
sheer paranoia prevented them from being removed. This commit removes
them and provides a proof of correctness in their absence. It also adds
a memory barrier to rcu_report_qs_rsp() immediately before the update to
rsp->completed in order to handle the theoretical possibility that the
compiler or CPU might move massive quantities of code into a lock-based
critical section. This also proves that the sheer paranoia was not
entirely unjustified, at least from a theoretical point of view.
In addition, the old dyntick-idle synchronization depended on the fact
that grace periods were many milliseconds in duration, so that it could
be assumed that no dyntick-idle CPU could reorder a memory reference
across an entire grace period. Unfortunately for this design, the
addition of expedited grace periods breaks this assumption, which has
the unfortunate side-effect of requiring atomic operations in the
functions that track dyntick-idle state for RCU. (There is some hope
that the algorithms used in user-level RCU might be applied here, but
some work is required to handle the NMIs that user-space applications
can happily ignore. For the short term, better safe than sorry.)
This proof assumes that neither compiler nor CPU will allow a lock
acquisition and release to be reordered, as doing so can result in
deadlock. The proof is as follows:
1. A given CPU declares a quiescent state under the protection of
its leaf rcu_node's lock.
2. If there is more than one level of rcu_node hierarchy, the
last CPU to declare a quiescent state will also acquire the
->lock of the next rcu_node up in the hierarchy, but only
after releasing the lower level's lock. The acquisition of this
lock clearly cannot occur prior to the acquisition of the leaf
node's lock.
3. Step 2 repeats until we reach the root rcu_node structure.
Please note again that only one lock is held at a time through
this process. The acquisition of the root rcu_node's ->lock
must occur after the release of that of the leaf rcu_node.
4. At this point, we set the ->completed field in the rcu_state
structure in rcu_report_qs_rsp(). However, if the rcu_node
hierarchy contains only one rcu_node, then in theory the code
preceding the quiescent state could leak into the critical
section. We therefore precede the update of ->completed with a
memory barrier. All CPUs will therefore agree that any updates
preceding any report of a quiescent state will have happened
before the update of ->completed.
5. Regardless of whether a new grace period is needed, rcu_start_gp()
will propagate the new value of ->completed to all of the leaf
rcu_node structures, under the protection of each rcu_node's ->lock.
If a new grace period is needed immediately, this propagation
will occur in the same critical section that ->completed was
set in, but courtesy of the memory barrier in #4 above, is still
seen to follow any pre-quiescent-state activity.
6. When a given CPU invokes __rcu_process_gp_end(), it becomes
aware of the end of the old grace period and therefore makes
any RCU callbacks that were waiting on that grace period eligible
for invocation.
If this CPU is the same one that detected the end of the grace
period, and if there is but a single rcu_node in the hierarchy,
we will still be in the single critical section. In this case,
the memory barrier in step #4 guarantees that all callbacks will
be seen to execute after each CPU's quiescent state.
On the other hand, if this is a different CPU, it will acquire
the leaf rcu_node's ->lock, and will again be serialized after
each CPU's quiescent state for the old grace period.
On the strength of this proof, this commit therefore removes the memory
barriers from rcu_process_callbacks() and adds one to rcu_report_qs_rsp().
The effect is to reduce the number of memory barriers by one and to
reduce the frequency of execution from about once per scheduling tick
per CPU to once per grace period.
This was reverted do to hangs found during testing by Yinghai Lu and
Ingo Molnar. Frederic Weisbecker supplied Yinghai with tracing that
located the underlying problem, and Frederic also provided the fix.
The underlying problem was that the HARDIRQ_ENTER() macro from
lib/locking-selftest.c invoked irq_enter(), which in turn invokes
rcu_irq_enter(), but HARDIRQ_EXIT() invoked __irq_exit(), which
does not invoke rcu_irq_exit(). This situation resulted in calls
to rcu_irq_enter() that were not balanced by the required calls to
rcu_irq_exit(). Therefore, after these locking selftests completed,
RCU's dyntick-idle nesting count was a large number (for example,
72), which caused RCU to to conclude that the affected CPU was not in
dyntick-idle mode when in fact it was.
RCU would therefore incorrectly wait for this dyntick-idle CPU, resulting
in hangs.
In contrast, with Frederic's patch, which replaces the irq_enter()
in HARDIRQ_ENTER() with an __irq_enter(), these tests don't ever call
either rcu_irq_enter() or rcu_irq_exit(), which works because the CPU
running the test is already marked as not being in dyntick-idle mode.
This means that the rcu_irq_enter() and rcu_irq_exit() calls and RCU
then has no problem working out which CPUs are in dyntick-idle mode and
which are not.
The reason that the imbalance was not noticed before the barrier patch
was applied is that the old implementation of rcu_enter_nohz() ignored
the nesting depth. This could still result in delays, but much shorter
ones. Whenever there was a delay, RCU would IPI the CPU with the
unbalanced nesting level, which would eventually result in rcu_enter_nohz()
being called, which in turn would force RCU to see that the CPU was in
dyntick-idle mode.
The reason that very few people noticed the problem is that the mismatched
irq_enter() vs. __irq_exit() occured only when the kernel was built with
CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCKING_API_SELFTESTS.

Witold reported a reboot caused by the selftests of the dynamic function
tracer. He sent me a config and I used ktest to do a config_bisect on it
(as my config did not cause the crash). It pointed out that the problem
config was CONFIG_PROVE_RCU.
What happened was that if multiple callbacks are attached to the
function tracer, we iterate a list of callbacks. Because the list is
managed by synchronize_sched() and preempt_disable, the access to the
pointers uses rcu_dereference_raw().
When PROVE_RCU is enabled, the rcu_dereference_raw() calls some
debugging functions, which happen to be traced. The tracing of the debug
function would then call rcu_dereference_raw() which would then call the
debug function and then... well you get the idea.
I first wrote two different patches to solve this bug.
1) add a __rcu_dereference_raw() that would not do any checks.
2) add notrace to the offending debug functions.
Both of these patches worked.
Talking with Paul McKenney on IRC, he suggested to add recursion
detection instead. This seemed to be a better solution, so I decided to
implement it. As the task_struct already has a trace_recursion to detect
recursion in the ring buffer, and that has a very small number it
allows, I decided to use that same variable to add flags that can detect
the recursion inside the infrastructure of the function tracer.
I plan to change it so that the task struct bit can be checked in
mcount, but as that requires changes to all archs, I will hold that off
to the next merge window.

When iterating the jump_label entries array (core or modules),
the __jump_label_update function peeks over the last entry.
The reason is that the end of the for loop depends on the key
value of the processed entry. Thus when going through the
last array entry, we will touch the memory behind the array
limit.
This bug probably will never be triggered, since most likely the
memory behind the jump_label entries will be accesable and the
entry->key will be different than the expected value.

profile_hits() has a common check for prof_on and prof_buffer regardless
of SMP or !SMP. So, remove some duplicate code by splitting profile_hits

Setup and cleanup of mm_struct->exe_file is currently done in fs/proc/.
This was because exe_file was needed only for /proc/<pid>/exe. Since we
will need the exe_file functionality also for core dumps (so core name can
contain full binary path), built this functionality always into the
kernel.
To achieve that move that out of proc FS to the kernel/ where in fact it
should belong. By doing that we can make dup_mm_exe_file static. Also we
can drop linux/proc_fs.h inclusion in fs/exec.c and kernel/fork.c.

The ns_cgroup is an annoying cgroup at the namespace / cgroup frontier and
leads to some problems:
* cgroup creation is out-of-control
* cgroup name can conflict when pids are looping
* it is not possible to have a single process handling a lot of
namespaces without falling in a exponential creation time
* we may want to create a namespace without creating a cgroup
The ns_cgroup was replaced by a compatibility flag 'clone_children',
where a newly created cgroup will copy the parent cgroup values.
The userspace has to manually create a cgroup and add a task to
the 'tasks' file.
This patch removes the ns_cgroup as suggested in the following thread:
https://lists.linux-foundation.org/pipermail/containers/2009-June/018616.html
The 'cgroup_clone' function is removed because it is no longer used.
This is a userspace-visible change. Commit 45531757b45c ("cgroup: notify
ns_cgroup deprecated") (merged into 2.6.27) caused the kernel to emit a
printk warning users that the feature is planned for removal. Since that
time we have heard from XXX users who were affected by this.

Convert cgroup_attach_proc to use flex_array.
The cgroup_attach_proc implementation requires a pre-allocated array to
store task pointers to atomically move a thread-group, but asking for a
monolithic array with kmalloc() may be unreliable for very large groups.
Using flex_array provides the same functionality with less risk of
failure.
This is a post-patch for cgroup-procs-write.patch.

Make procs file writable to move all threads by tgid at once.
Add functionality that enables users to move all threads in a threadgroup
at once to a cgroup by writing the tgid to the 'cgroup.procs' file. This
current implementation makes use of a per-threadgroup rwsem that's taken
for reading in the fork() path to prevent newly forking threads within the
threadgroup from "escaping" while the move is in progress.

Add cgroup subsystem callbacks for per-thread attachment in atomic contexts
Add can_attach_task(), pre_attach(), and attach_task() as new callbacks
for cgroups's subsystem interface. Unlike can_attach and attach, these
are for per-thread operations, to be called potentially many times when
attaching an entire threadgroup.
Also, the old "bool threadgroup" interface is removed, as replaced by
this. All subsystems are modified for the new interface - of note is
cpuset, which requires from/to nodemasks for attach to be globally scoped
(though per-cpuset would work too) to persist from its pre_attach to
attach_task and attach.
This is a pre-patch for cgroup-procs-writable.patch.

With the networking stack today there is demand to handle
multiple network stacks at a time. Not in the context
of containers but in the context of people doing interesting
things with routing.
There is also demand in the context of containers to have
an efficient way to execute some code in the container itself.
If nothing else it is very useful ad a debugging technique.
Both problems can be solved by starting some form of login
daemon in the namespaces people want access to, or you
can play games by ptracing a process and getting the
traced process to do things you want it to do. However
it turns out that a login daemon or a ptrace puppet
controller are more code, they are more prone to
failure, and generally they are less efficient than
simply changing the namespace of a process to a
specified one.
Pieces of this puzzle can also be solved by instead of
coming up with a general purpose system call coming up
with targed system calls perhaps socketat that solve
a subset of the larger problem. Overall that appears
to be more work for less reward.
int setns(int fd, int nstype);
The fd argument is a file descriptor referring to a proc
file of the namespace you want to switch the process to.
In the setns system call the nstype is 0 or specifies
an clone flag of the namespace you intend to change
to prevent changing a namespace unintentionally.
v2: Most of the architecture support added by Daniel Lezcano <dlezcano@fr.ibm.com>
v3: ported to v2.6.36-rc4 by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com>
v4: Moved wiring up of the system call to another patch
v5: Cleaned up the system call arguments
- Changed the order.
- Modified nstype to take the standard clone flags.

It is not clear why ptrace_resume() does wake_up_process(). Unless the
caller is PTRACE_KILL the tracee should be TASK_TRACED so we can use
wake_up_state(__TASK_TRACED). If sys_ptrace() races with SIGKILL we do
not need the extra and potentionally spurious wakeup.
If the caller is PTRACE_KILL, wake_up_process() is even more wrong.
The tracee can sleep in any state in any place, and if we have a buggy
code which doesn't handle a spurious wakeup correctly PTRACE_KILL can
be used to exploit it. For example:
int main(void)
{
int child, status;
child = fork();
if (!child) {
int ret;
assert(ptrace(PTRACE_TRACEME, 0,0,0) == 0);
ret = pause();
printf("pause: %d %m\n", ret);
return 0x23;
}
sleep(1);
assert(ptrace(PTRACE_KILL, child, 0,0) == 0);
assert(child == wait(&status));
printf("wait: %x\n", status);
return 0;
}
prints "pause: -1 Unknown error 514", -ERESTARTNOHAND leaks to the
userland. In this case sys_pause() is buggy as well and should be
fixed.
I do not know what was the original rationality behind PTRACE_KILL.
The man page is simply wrong and afaics it was always wrong. Imho
it should be deprecated, or may be it should do send_sig(SIGKILL)
as Denys suggests, but in any case I do not think that the current
behaviour was intentional.
Note: there is another problem, ptrace_resume() changes ->exit_code
and this can race with SIGKILL too. Eventually we should change ptrace
to not use ->exit_code.

This change adds support for /proc/sys/debug/exception-trace to tile.
Like x86 and sparc, by default it is set to "1", generating a one-line
printk whenever a user process crashes. By setting it to "2", we get
a much more complete userspace diagnostic at crash time, including
a user-space backtrace, register dump, and memory dump around the
address of the crash.
Some vestiges of the Tilera-internal version of this support are
removed with this patch (the show_crashinfo variable and the
arch_coredump_signal function). We retain a "crashinfo" boot parameter
which allows you to set the boot-time value of exception-trace.

The existing <asm-generic/unistd.h> mechanism doesn't really provide
enough to create the 64-bit "compat" ABI properly in a generic way,
since the compat ABI is a mix of things were you can re-use the 64-bit
versions of syscalls and things where you need a compat wrapper.
To provide this in the most direct way possible, I added two new macros
to go along with the existing __SYSCALL and __SC_3264 macros: __SC_COMP
and SC_COMP_3264. These macros take an additional argument, typically a
"compat_sys_xxx" function, which is passed to __SYSCALL if you define
__SYSCALL_COMPAT when including the header, resulting in a pointer to
the compat function being placed in the generated syscall table.
The change also adds some missing definitions to <linux/compat.h> so that
it actually has declarations for all the compat syscalls, since the
"[nr] = ##call" approach requires proper C declarations for all the
functions included in the syscall table.
Finally, compat.c defines compat_sys_sigpending() and
compat_sys_sigprocmask() even if the underlying architecture doesn't
request it, which tries to pull in undefined compat_old_sigset_t defines.
We need to guard those compat syscall definitions with appropriate
__ARCH_WANT_SYS_xxx ifdefs.

commit 9ec2690758a5 ("timerfd: Manage cancelable timers in timerfd")
introduced a CONFIG_HIGHRES_TIMERS (should be CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS)
typo, which caused applications depending on CLOCK_REALTIME timers to
become sluggy due to the fact that the time base of the realtime
timers was not updated when the wall clock time was set.
This causes anything from 100% CPU use for some applications to odd
delays and hickups.

Ben Nagy reported a scalability problem with KVM/QEMU that hit very hard
a single spinlock (idr_lock) in posix-timers code, on its 48 core
machine.
Even on a 16 cpu machine (2x4x2), a single test can show 98% of cpu time
used in ticket_spin_lock, from lock_timer
Ref: http://www.spinics.net/lists/kvm/msg51526.html
Switching to RCU is quite easy, IDR being already RCU ready. idr_lock
should be locked only for an insert/delete, not a lookup.
Benchmark on a 2x4x2 machine, 16 processes calling timer_gettime().

On larger systems, because of the numerous ACPI, Bootmem and EFI messages,
the static log buffer overflows before the larger one specified by the
log_buf_len param is allocated. Minimize the overflow by allocating the
new log buffer as soon as possible.
On kernels without memblock, a later call to setup_log_buf from
kernel/init.c is the fallback.
