Paul E. McKenney eff9b713ee rcu: fix locking cleanup fallout
Given that the rcp->lock is now acquired from call_rcu(), which can be
invoked from irq-disable regions, all acquisitions need to disable irqs.
The following patch fixes this.

Although I don't have any reason to believe that this is the cause of
Yinghai's oops, it does need to be fixed.

Fixes a problem detected by lockdep in which rcu->lock was acquired
both in irq context and in process context, but without disabling from
process context.

Paul E. McKenney 1f7b94cd3d rcu: classic RCU locking and memory-barrier cleanups
This patch simplifies the locking and memory-barrier usage in the Classic
RCU grace-period-detection mechanism, incorporating Lai Jiangshan's
feedback from the earlier version (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/8/1/400
and http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/8/3/43).  Passed 10 hours of
rcutorture concurrent with CPUs being put online and taken offline on
a 128-hardware-thread Power machine.  My apologies to whoever in the
Eastern Hemisphere was planning to use this machine over the Western
Hemisphere night, but it was sitting idle and...

So this is ready for tip/core/rcu.

This patch is in preparation for moving to a hierarchical
algorithm to allow the very large SMP machines -- requested by some
people at OLS, and there seem to have been a few recent patches in the
4096-CPU direction as well.  The general idea is to move to a much more
conservative concurrency design, then apply a hierarchy to reduce
contention on the global lock by a few orders of magnitude (larger
machines would see greater reductions).  The reason for taking a
conservative approach is that this code isn't on any fast path.

Prototype in progress.

This patch is against the linux-tip git tree (tip/core/rcu).  If you
wish to test this against 2.6.26, use the following set of patches:

http://www.rdrop.com/users/paulmck/patches/2.6.26-ljsimp-1.patch

David Howells 5cd9c58fbe security: Fix setting of PF_SUPERPRIV by __capable()
Fix the setting of PF_SUPERPRIV by __capable() as it could corrupt the flags
the target process if that is not the current process and it is trying to
change its own flags in a different way at the same time.

__capable() is using neither atomic ops nor locking to protect t->flags.  This
patch removes __capable() and introduces has_capability() that doesn't set
PF_SUPERPRIV on the process being queried.

This patch further splits security_ptrace() in two:

 (1) security_ptrace_may_access().  This passes judgement on whether one
     process may access another only (PTRACE_MODE_ATTACH for ptrace() and
     PTRACE_MODE_READ for /proc), and takes a pointer to the child process.
     current is the parent.

 (2) security_ptrace_traceme().  This passes judgement on PTRACE_TRACEME only,
     and takes only a pointer to the parent process.  current is the child.

     In Smack and commoncap, this uses has_capability() to determine whether
     the parent will be permitted to use PTRACE_ATTACH if normal checks fail.
     This does not set PF_SUPERPRIV.

Two of the instances of __capable() actually only act on current, and so have
been changed to calls to capable().

Of the places that were using __capable():

 (1) The OOM killer calls __capable() thrice when weighing the killability of a
     process.  All of these now use has_capability().

 (2) cap_ptrace() and smack_ptrace() were using __capable() to check to see
     whether the parent was allowed to trace any process.  As mentioned above,
     these have been split.  For PTRACE_ATTACH and /proc, capable() is now
     used, and for PTRACE_TRACEME, has_capability() is used.

 (3) cap_safe_nice() only ever saw current, so now uses capable().

 (4) smack_setprocattr() rejected accesses to tasks other than current just
     after calling __capable(), so the order of these two tests have been
     switched and capable() is used instead.

 (5) In smack_file_send_sigiotask(), we need to allow privileged processes to
     receive SIGIO on files they're manipulating.

 (6) In smack_task_wait(), we let a process wait for a privileged process,
     whether or not the process doing the waiting is privileged.

I've tested this with the LTP SELinux and syscalls testscripts.

Max Krasnyansky cf417141cb sched, cpuset: rework sched domains and CPU hotplug handling (v4)
This is an updated version of my previous cpuset patch on top of
the latest mainline git.
The patch fixes CPU hotplug handling issues in the current cpusets code.
Namely circular locking in rebuild_sched_domains() and unsafe access to
the cpu_online_map in the cpuset cpu hotplug handler.

This version includes changes suggested by Paul Jackson (naming, comments,
style, etc). I also got rid of the separate workqueue thread because it is
now safe to call get_online_cpus() from workqueue callbacks.

Here are some more details:

rebuild_sched_domains() is the only way to rebuild sched domains
correctly based on the current cpuset settings. What this means
is that we need to be able to call it from different contexts,
like cpu hotplug for example.
Also latest scheduler code in -tip now calls rebuild_sched_domains()
directly from functions like arch_reinit_sched_domains().

In order to support that properly we need to rework cpuset locking
rules to avoid circular dependencies, which is what this patch does.
New lock nesting rules are explained in the comments.
We can now safely call rebuild_sched_domains() from virtually any
context. The only requirement is that it needs to be called under
get_online_cpus(). This allows cpu hotplug handlers and the scheduler
to call rebuild_sched_domains() directly.
The rest of the cpuset code now offloads sched domains rebuilds to
a workqueue (async_rebuild_sched_domains()).

This version of the patch addresses comments from the previous review.
I fixed all miss-formated comments and trailing spaces.

I also factored out the code that builds domain masks and split up CPU and
memory hotplug handling. This was needed to simplify locking, to avoid unsafe
access to the cpu_online_map from mem hotplug handler, and in general to make
things cleaner.

The patch passes moderate testing (building kernel with -j 16, creating &
removing domains and bringing cpus off/online at the same time) on the
quad-core2 based machine.

It passes lockdep checks, even with preemptable RCU enabled.
This time I also tested in with suspend/resume path and everything is working
as expected.

Zhang, Yanmin 09f2724a78 sched: fix the race between walk_tg_tree and sched_create_group
With 2.6.27-rc3, I hit a kernel panic when running volanoMark on my
new x86_64 machine. I also hit it with other 2.6.27-rc kernels.
See below log.

Basically, function walk_tg_tree and sched_create_group have a race
between accessing and initiating tg->children. Below patch fixes it
by moving tg->children initiation to the front of linking tg->siblings
to parent->children.

OK indeed it did have a couple of bugs. Firstly, I wasn't freeing the
data properly in the alloc && wait case. Secondly, I wasn't resetting
CSD_FLAG_WAIT in the for each cpu loop (so only the first CPU would
wait).

After those fixes, the patch boots and runs with the kmalloc commented
out (so it always executes the slowpath).

Arjan van de Ven 59f9415ffb modules: extend initcall_debug functionality to the module loader
The kernel has this really nice facility where if you put "initcall_debug"
on the kernel commandline, it'll print which function it's going to
execute just before calling an initcall, and then after the call completes
it will

1) print if it had an error code

2) checks for a few simple bugs (like leaving irqs off)
and

3) print how long the init call took in milliseconds.

While trying to optimize the boot speed of my laptop, I have been loving
number 3 to figure out what to optimize...  ...  and then I wished that
the same thing was done for module loading.

This patch makes the module loader use this exact same functionality; it's
a logical extension in my view (since modules are just sort of late
binding initcalls anyway) and so far I've found it quite useful in finding
where things are too slow in my boot.

So set the CPU active before calling the CPU_ONLINE notifier chain,
there are a handful of notifiers that use set_cpus_allowed().

This fix also solves the problem with x86-microcode. I've sent
alternative patches for microcode, but as this "rely on
set_cpus_allowed_ptr() being workable in cpu-hotplug(CPU_ONLINE, ...)"
assumption seems to be more broad than what we thought, perhaps this fix
should be applied.

With this patch we define that by the moment CPU_ONLINE is being sent,
a 'cpu' is online and ready for tasks to be migrated onto it.

Nice debugging work.

I'd suggest something like the attached (boot tested) patch as the simple
fix for now.

I expect the benefits from the less synchronized, multiple-in-flight-data
global queue will still outweigh the costs of dynamic allocations. But
if worst comes to worst then we just go back to a globally synchronous
one-at-a-time implementation, but that would be pretty sad!

Mike Galbraith 77ae651347 sched: fix mysql+oltp regression
Defer commit 6d299f1b53 to the next release.

Testing of the tip/sched/clock tree revealed a mysql+oltp regression
which bisection eventually traced back to this commit in mainline.

Pertinent test results:  Three run sysbench averages, throughput units
in read/write requests/sec.

clients         1     2     4     8    16    32    64

6d299f1      9112 14637 28370 33339 32038 30762 29204

Note: subsequent commits hide the majority of this regression until you
apply the clock fixes, at which time it reemerges at full magnitude.

We cannot see anything bad about the change itself so we defer it to the
next release until this problem is fully analysed.

Paul E. McKenney 67182ae1c4 rcu, debug: detect stalled grace periods
this is a diagnostic patch for Classic RCU.

The approach is to record a timestamp at the beginning
of the grace period (in rcu_start_batch()), then have
rcu_check_callbacks() complain if:

 1.	it is running on a CPU that has holding up grace periods for
 	a long time (say one second).  This will identify the culprit
 	assuming that the culprit has not disabled hardware irqs,
 	instruction execution, or some such.

 2.	it is running on a CPU that is not holding up grace periods,
 	but grace periods have been held up for an even longer time
 	(say two seconds).

It is enabled via the default-off CONFIG_DEBUG_RCU_STALL kernel parameter.

Rather than exponential backoff, it backs off to once per 30 seconds.
My feeling upon thinking on it was that if you have stalled RCU grace
periods for that long, a few extra printk() messages are probably the
least of your worries...

Do as Linus suggested. The lock protection lock is called nest_lock.

Note that we still have the MAX_LOCK_DEPTH (48) limit to consider, so anything

Peter Zijlstra 1b12bbc747 lockdep: re-annotate scheduler runqueues
Instead of using a per-rq lock class, use the regular nesting operations.

However, take extra care with double_lock_balance() as it can release the
already held rq->lock (and therefore change its nesting class).

So what can happen is:

 spin_lock(rq->lock);	// this rq subclass 0

 double_lock_balance(rq, other_rq);
   // release rq
   // acquire other_rq->lock subclass 0
   // acquire rq->lock subclass 1

 spin_unlock(other_rq->lock);

leaving you with rq->lock in subclass 1

So a subsequent double_lock_balance() call can try to nest a subclass 1
lock while already holding a subclass 1 lock.

Fix this by introducing double_unlock_balance() which releases the other
rq's lock, but also re-sets the subclass for this rq's lock to 0.

get_order() takes byte-sized input, not a page-granular one.

Irrespective of this fix I'm inclined to believe that this doesn't work
right anyway - bitmap_allocate_region() has an implicit assumption of
'pos' being suitable for 'order', which this function doesn't seem to
enforce (and since it's being called with a byte-granular value there's no
reason to believe that the callers would make sure device_addr is passed
accordingly - it's also not documented that way).

My commit 2b2a1ff64a introduced a regression
(sorry about that) for the odd case of exit_signal=0 (e.g. clone_flags=0).
This is not a normal use, but it's used by a case in the glibc test suite.

Dying with exit_signal=0 sends no signal, but it's supposed to wake up a
parent's blocked wait*() calls (unlike the delayed_group_leader case).
This fixes tracehook_notify_death() and its caller to distinguish a
"signal 0" wakeup from the delayed_group_leader case (with no wakeup).

Vesa-Matti J Kari 1d6c9649e2 kernel/audit.c control character detection is off-by-one
Hello,

According to my understanding there is an off-by-one bug in the
function:

   audit_string_contains_control()

in:

  kernel/audit.c

Patch is included.

I do not know from how many places the function is called from, but for
example, SELinux Access Vector Cache tries to log untrusted filenames via
call path:

avc_audit()
     audit_log_untrustedstring()
         audit_log_n_untrustedstring()
             audit_string_contains_control()

If audit_string_contains_control() detects control characters, then the
string is hex-encoded. But the hex=0x7f dec=127, DEL-character, is not
detected.

I guess this could have at least some minor security implications, since a
user can create a filename with 0x7f in it, causing logged filename to
possibly look different when someone reads it on the terminal.

Jason Wessel 25fc999913 kgdb: fix gdb serial thread queries
The command "info threads" did not work correctly with kgdb.  It would
result in a silent kernel hang if used.

This patach addresses several problems.
 - Fix use of deprecated NR_CPUS
 - Fix kgdb to not walk linearly through the pid space
 - Correctly implement shadow pids
 - Change the threads per query to a #define
 - Fix kgdb_hex2long to work with negated values

The threads 0 and -1 are reserved to represent the current task.  That
means that CPU 0 will start with a shadow thread id of -2, and CPU 1
will have a shadow thread id of -3, etc...

From the debugger you can switch to a shadow thread to see what one of
the other cpus was doing, however it is not possible to execute run
control operations on any other cpu execept the cpu executing the
kgdb_handle_exception().

Jason Wessel a9b60bf4c2 kgdb: fix kgdb_validate_break_address to perform a mem write
A regression to the kgdb core was found in the case of using the
CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA kernel option.  When this option is on, a breakpoint
cannot be written into any readonly memory page.  When an external
debugger requests a breakpoint to get set, the
kgdb_validate_break_address() was only checking to see if the address
to place the breakpoint was readable and lacked a write check.

This patch changes the validate routine to try reading (via the
breakpoint set request) and also to try immediately writing the break
point.  If either fails, an error is correctly returned and the
debugger behaves correctly.  Then an end user can make the
descision to use hardware breakpoints.

Also update the documentation to reflect that using
CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA will inhibit the use of software breakpoints.

Peter Zijlstra 5e710e37bd lockdep: change scheduler annotation
While thinking about David's graph walk lockdep patch it _finally_
dawned on me that there is no reason we have a lock class per cpu ...

Sorry for being dense :-/

The below changes the annotation from a lock class per cpu, to a single
nested lock, as the scheduler never holds more that 2 rq locks at a time
anyway.

If there was code requiring holding all rq locks this would not work and
the original annotation would be the only option, but that not being the
case, this is a much lighter one.

Compiles and boots on a 2-way x86_64.

David Miller 419ca3f135 lockdep: fix combinatorial explosion in lock subgraph traversal
When we traverse the graph, either forwards or backwards, we
are interested in whether a certain property exists somewhere
in a node reachable in the graph.

Therefore it is never necessary to traverse through a node more
than once to get a correct answer to the given query.

Take advantage of this property using a global ID counter so that we
need not clear all the markers in all the lock_class entries before
doing a traversal.  A new ID is choosen when we start to traverse, and
we continue through a lock_class only if it's ID hasn't been marked
with the new value yet.

This short-circuiting is essential especially for high CPU count
systems.  The scheduler has a runqueue per cpu, and needs to take
two runqueue locks at a time, which leads to long chains of
backwards and forwards subgraphs from these runqueue lock nodes.
Without the short-circuit implemented here, a graph traversal on
a runqueue lock can take up to (1 << (N - 1)) checks on a system
with N cpus.

For anything more than 16 cpus or so, lockdep will eventually bring
the machine to a complete standstill.

Ingo Molnar e4e4e534fa sched clock: revert various sched_clock() changes
Found an interactivity problem on a quad core test-system - simple
CPU loops would occasionally delay the system un an unacceptable way.

After much debugging with Peter Zijlstra it turned out that the problem
is caused by the string of sched_clock() changes - they caused the CPU
clock to jump backwards a bit - which confuses the scheduler arithmetics.

(which is unsigned for performance reasons)

So revert:

 # c300ba2: sched_clock: and multiplier for TSC to gtod drift
 # c0c8773: sched_clock: only update deltas with local reads.
 # af52a90: sched_clock: stop maximum check on NO HZ
 # f7cce27: sched_clock: widen the max and min time

This solves the interactivity problems.

Mathieu Desnoyers 5def9a3a22 markers: fix markers read barrier for multiple probes
Paul pointed out two incorrect read barriers in the marker handler code in
the path where multiple probes are connected.  Those are ordering reads of
"ptype" (single or multi probe marker), "multi" array pointer, and "multi"
array data access.

It should be ordered like this :

read ptype
smp_rmb()
read multi array pointer
smp_read_barrier_depends()
access data referenced by multi array pointer

The code with a single probe connected (optimized case, does not have to
allocate an array) has correct memory ordering.

It applies to kernel 2.6.26.x, 2.6.25.x and linux-next.

Andrea Arcangeli cddb8a5c14 mmu-notifiers: core
With KVM/GFP/XPMEM there isn't just the primary CPU MMU pointing to pages.
 There are secondary MMUs (with secondary sptes and secondary tlbs) too.
sptes in the kvm case are shadow pagetables, but when I say spte in
mmu-notifier context, I mean "secondary pte".  In GRU case there's no
actual secondary pte and there's only a secondary tlb because the GRU
secondary MMU has no knowledge about sptes and every secondary tlb miss
event in the MMU always generates a page fault that has to be resolved by
the CPU (this is not the case of KVM where the a secondary tlb miss will
walk sptes in hardware and it will refill the secondary tlb transparently
to software if the corresponding spte is present).  The same way
zap_page_range has to invalidate the pte before freeing the page, the spte
(and secondary tlb) must also be invalidated before any page is freed and
reused.

Currently we take a page_count pin on every page mapped by sptes, but that
means the pages can't be swapped whenever they're mapped by any spte
because they're part of the guest working set.  Furthermore a spte unmap
event can immediately lead to a page to be freed when the pin is released
(so requiring the same complex and relatively slow tlb_gather smp safe
logic we have in zap_page_range and that can be avoided completely if the
spte unmap event doesn't require an unpin of the page previously mapped in
the secondary MMU).

The mmu notifiers allow kvm/GRU/XPMEM to attach to the tsk->mm and know
when the VM is swapping or freeing or doing anything on the primary MMU so
that the secondary MMU code can drop sptes before the pages are freed,
avoiding all page pinning and allowing 100% reliable swapping of guest
physical address space.  Furthermore it avoids the code that teardown the
mappings of the secondary MMU, to implement a logic like tlb_gather in
zap_page_range that would require many IPI to flush other cpu tlbs, for
each fixed number of spte unmapped.

To make an example: if what happens on the primary MMU is a protection
downgrade (from writeable to wrprotect) the secondary MMU mappings will be
invalidated, and the next secondary-mmu-page-fault will call
get_user_pages and trigger a do_wp_page through get_user_pages if it
called get_user_pages with write=1, and it'll re-establishing an updated
spte or secondary-tlb-mapping on the copied page.  Or it will setup a
readonly spte or readonly tlb mapping if it's a guest-read, if it calls
get_user_pages with write=0.  This is just an example.

This allows to map any page pointed by any pte (and in turn visible in the
primary CPU MMU), into a secondary MMU (be it a pure tlb like GRU, or an
full MMU with both sptes and secondary-tlb like the shadow-pagetable layer
with kvm), or a remote DMA in software like XPMEM (hence needing of
schedule in XPMEM code to send the invalidate to the remote node, while no
need to schedule in kvm/gru as it's an immediate event like invalidating
primary-mmu pte).

At least for KVM without this patch it's impossible to swap guests
reliably.  And having this feature and removing the page pin allows
several other optimizations that simplify life considerably.

Dependencies:

1) mm_take_all_locks() to register the mmu notifier when the whole VM
   isn't doing anything with "mm".  This allows mmu notifier users to keep
   track if the VM is in the middle of the invalidate_range_begin/end
   critical section with an atomic counter incraese in range_begin and
   decreased in range_end.  No secondary MMU page fault is allowed to map
   any spte or secondary tlb reference, while the VM is in the middle of
   range_begin/end as any page returned by get_user_pages in that critical
   section could later immediately be freed without any further
   ->invalidate_page notification (invalidate_range_begin/end works on
   ranges and ->invalidate_page isn't called immediately before freeing
   the page).  To stop all page freeing and pagetable overwrites the
   mmap_sem must be taken in write mode and all other anon_vma/i_mmap
   locks must be taken too.

2) It'd be a waste to add branches in the VM if nobody could possibly
   run KVM/GRU/XPMEM on the kernel, so mmu notifiers will only enabled if
   CONFIG_KVM=m/y.  In the current kernel kvm won't yet take advantage of
   mmu notifiers, but this already allows to compile a KVM external module
   against a kernel with mmu notifiers enabled and from the next pull from
   kvm.git we'll start using them.  And GRU/XPMEM will also be able to
   continue the development by enabling KVM=m in their config, until they
   submit all GRU/XPMEM GPLv2 code to the mainline kernel.  Then they can
   also enable MMU_NOTIFIERS in the same way KVM does it (even if KVM=n).
   This guarantees nobody selects MMU_NOTIFIER=y if KVM and GRU and XPMEM
   are all =n.

The mmu_notifier_register call can fail because mm_take_all_locks may be
interrupted by a signal and return -EINTR.  Because mmu_notifier_reigster
is used when a driver startup, a failure can be gracefully handled.  Here
an example of the change applied to kvm to register the mmu notifiers.
Usually when a driver startups other allocations are required anyway and
-ENOMEM failure paths exists already.

 struct  kvm *kvm_arch_create_vm(void)
 {
        struct kvm *kvm = kzalloc(sizeof(struct kvm), GFP_KERNEL);
+       int err;

        if (!kvm)
                return ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM);

        INIT_LIST_HEAD(&kvm->arch.active_mmu_pages);

+       kvm->arch.mmu_notifier.ops = &kvm_mmu_notifier_ops;
+       err = mmu_notifier_register(&kvm->arch.mmu_notifier, current->mm);
+       if (err) {
+               kfree(kvm);
+               return ERR_PTR(err);
+       }
+
        return kvm;
 }

mmu_notifier_unregister returns void and it's reliable.

The patch also adds a few needed but missing includes that would prevent
kernel to compile after these changes on non-x86 archs (x86 didn't need
them by luck).

Linus Torvalds e56b3bc794 cpu masks: optimize and clean up cpumask_of_cpu()
Clean up and optimize cpumask_of_cpu(), by sharing all the zero words.

Instead of stupidly generating all possible i=0...NR_CPUS 2^i patterns
creating a huge array of constant bitmasks, realize that the zero words
can be shared.

In other words, on a 64-bit architecture, we only ever need 64 of these
arrays - with a different bit set in one single world (with enough zero
words around it so that we can create any bitmask by just offsetting in
that big array). And then we just put enough zeroes around it that we
can point every single cpumask to be one of those things.

So when we have 4k CPU's, instead of having 4k arrays (of 4k bits each,
with one bit set in each array - 2MB memory total), we have exactly 64
arrays instead, each 8k bits in size (64kB total).

And then we just point cpumask(n) to the right position (which we can
calculate dynamically). Once we have the right arrays, getting
"cpumask(n)" ends up being:

  static inline const cpumask_t *get_cpu_mask(unsigned int cpu)
  {
          const unsigned long *p = cpu_bit_bitmap[1 + cpu % BITS_PER_LONG];
          p -= cpu / BITS_PER_LONG;
          return (const cpumask_t *)p;
  }

This brings other advantages and simplifications as well:

 - we are not wasting memory that is just filled with a single bit in
   various different places

 - we don't need all those games to re-create the arrays in some dense
   format, because they're already going to be dense enough.

if we compile a kernel for up to 4k CPU's, "wasting" that 64kB of memory
is a non-issue (especially since by doing this "overlapping" trick we
probably get better cache behaviour anyway).

Probably ppc64's s64 is long vs long long..

Al Viro ae7edecc9b [PATCH] sysctl: keep track of tree relationships
In a sense, that's the heart of the series.  It's based on the following
property of the trees we are actually asked to add: they can be split into
stem that is already covered by registered trees and crown that is entirely
new.  IOW, if a/b and a/c/d are introduced by our tree, then a/c is also
introduced by it.

That allows to associate tree and table entry with each node in the union;
while directory nodes might be covered by many trees, only one will cover
the node by its crown.  And that will allow much saner logics for /proc/sys
in the next patches.  This patch introduces the data structures needed to
keep track of that.

When adding a sysctl table, we find a "parent" one.  Which is to say,
find the deepest node on its stem that already is present in one of the
tables from our table set or its ancestor sets.  That table will be our
parent and that node in it - attachment point.  Add our table to list
anchored in parent, have it refer the parent and contents of attachment
point.  Also remember where its crown lives.

Al Viro f7e6ced406 [PATCH] allow delayed freeing of ctl_table_header
Refcount the sucker; instead of freeing it by the end of unregistration
just drop the refcount and free only when it hits zero.  Make sure that
we _always_ make ->unregistering non-NULL in start_unregistering().

That allows anybody to get a reference to such puppy, preventing its
freeing and reuse.  It does *not* block unregistration.  Anybody who
holds such a reference can
	* try to grab a "use" reference (ctl_head_grab()); that will
succeeds if and only if it hadn't entered unregistration yet.  If it
succeeds, we can use it in all normal ways until we release the "use"
reference (with ctl_head_finish()).  Note that this relies on having
->unregistering become non-NULL in all cases when one starts to unregister
the sucker.
	* keep pointers to ctl_table entries; they *can* be freed if
the entire thing is unregistered.  However, if ctl_head_grab() succeeds,
we know that unregistration had not happened (and will not happen until
ctl_head_finish()) and such pointers can be used safely.

IOW, now we can have inodes under /proc/sys keep references to ctl_table
entries, protecting them with references to ctl_table_header and
grabbing the latter for the duration of operations that require access
to ctl_table.  That won't cause deadlocks, since unregistration will not
be stopped by mere keeping a reference to ctl_table_header.

Roland McGrath dae33574dc tracehook: release_task
This moves the ptrace-related logic from release_task into tracehook.h and
ptrace.h inlines.  It provides clean hooks both before and after locking
tasklist_lock, for future tracing logic to do more cleanup without the
lock.

This also changes release_task() itself in the rare "zap_leader" case to
set the leader to EXIT_DEAD before iterating.  This maintains the
invariant that release_task() only ever handles a task in EXIT_DEAD.  This
is a common-sense invariant that is already always true except in this one
arcane case of zombie leader whose parent ignores SIGCHLD.

This change is harmless and only costs one store in this one rare case.
It keeps the expected state more consisently sane, which is nicer when
debugging weirdness in release_task().  It also lets some future code in
the tracehook entry points rely on this invariant for bookkeeping.

The ptrace_notify() function should not be called by any modules.  It was
only ever exported to be called by binfmt exec functions.  But that is no
longer necessary since fs/exec.c deals with that generically now.  There
should be no calls to ptrace_notify() from outside the core kernel.

Alexey Dobriyan 51cc50685a SL*B: drop kmem cache argument from constructor
Kmem cache passed to constructor is only needed for constructors that are
themselves multiplexeres.  Nobody uses this "feature", nor does anybody uses
passed kmem cache in non-trivial way, so pass only pointer to object.

Non-trivial places are:
	arch/powerpc/mm/init_64.c
	arch/powerpc/mm/hugetlbpage.c

This is flag day, yes.

Eduard - Gabriel Munteanu 20d8b67c06 relay: add buffer-only channels; useful for early logging
Allows one to create and use a channel with no associated files.  Files
can be initialized later.  This is useful in scenarios such as logging in
early code, before VFS is up.  Therefore, such channels can be created and
used as soon as kmem_cache_init() completed.

This is needed by kmemtrace to do tracing in early kernel code.

Huang Ying 89081d17f7 kexec jump: save/restore device state
This patch implements devices state save/restore before after kexec.

This patch together with features in kexec_jump patch can be used for
following:

- A simple hibernation implementation without ACPI support.  You can kexec a
  hibernating kernel, save the memory image of original system and shutdown
  the system.  When resuming, you restore the memory image of original system
  via ordinary kexec load then jump back.

- Kernel/system debug through making system snapshot.  You can make system
  snapshot, jump back, do some thing and make another system snapshot.

- Cooperative multi-kernel/system.  With kexec jump, you can switch between
  several kernels/systems quickly without boot process except the first time.
  This appears like swap a whole kernel/system out/in.

- A general method to call program in physical mode (paging turning
  off). This can be used to invoke BIOS code under Linux.

The following user-space tools can be used with kexec jump:

- kexec-tools needs to be patched to support kexec jump. The patches
  and the precompiled kexec can be download from the following URL:
       source: http://khibernation.sourceforge.net/download/release_v10/kexec-tools/kexec-tools-src_git_kh10.tar.bz2
       patches: http://khibernation.sourceforge.net/download/release_v10/kexec-tools/kexec-tools-patches_git_kh10.tar.bz2
       binary: http://khibernation.sourceforge.net/download/release_v10/kexec-tools/kexec_git_kh10

- makedumpfile with patches are used as memory image saving tool, it
  can exclude free pages from original kernel memory image file. The
  patches and the precompiled makedumpfile can be download from the
  following URL:
       source: http://khibernation.sourceforge.net/download/release_v10/makedumpfile/makedumpfile-src_cvs_kh10.tar.bz2
       patches: http://khibernation.sourceforge.net/download/release_v10/makedumpfile/makedumpfile-patches_cvs_kh10.tar.bz2
       binary: http://khibernation.sourceforge.net/download/release_v10/makedumpfile/makedumpfile_cvs_kh10

- An initramfs image can be used as the root file system of kexeced
  kernel. An initramfs image built with "BuildRoot" can be downloaded
  from the following URL:
       initramfs image: http://khibernation.sourceforge.net/download/release_v10/initramfs/rootfs_cvs_kh10.gz
  All user space tools above are included in the initramfs image.

Usage example of simple hibernation:

1. Compile and install patched kernel with following options selected:

CONFIG_X86_32=y
CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y
CONFIG_KEXEC=y
CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP=y
CONFIG_PM=y
CONFIG_HIBERNATION=y
CONFIG_KEXEC_JUMP=y

2. Build an initramfs image contains kexec-tool and makedumpfile, or
   download the pre-built initramfs image, called rootfs.gz in
   following text.

3. Prepare a partition to save memory image of original kernel, called
   hibernating partition in following text.

4. Boot kernel compiled in step 1 (kernel A).

5. In the kernel A, load kernel compiled in step 1 (kernel B) with
   /sbin/kexec. The shell command line can be as follow:

   /sbin/kexec --load-preserve-context /boot/bzImage --mem-min=0x100000
     --mem-max=0xffffff --initrd=rootfs.gz

6. Boot the kernel B with following shell command line:

   /sbin/kexec -e

7. The kernel B will boot as normal kexec. In kernel B the memory
   image of kernel A can be saved into hibernating partition as
   follow:

   jump_back_entry=`cat /proc/cmdline | tr ' ' '\n' | grep kexec_jump_back_entry | cut -d '='`
   echo $jump_back_entry > kexec_jump_back_entry
   cp /proc/vmcore dump.elf

   Then you can shutdown the machine as normal.

8. Boot kernel compiled in step 1 (kernel C). Use the rootfs.gz as
   root file system.

9. In kernel C, load the memory image of kernel A as follow:

   /sbin/kexec -l --args-none --entry=`cat kexec_jump_back_entry` dump.elf

10. Jump back to the kernel A as follow:

   /sbin/kexec -e

   Then, kernel A is resumed.

Implementation point:

To support jumping between two kernels, before jumping to (executing)
the new kernel and jumping back to the original kernel, the devices
are put into quiescent state, and the state of devices and CPU is
saved. After jumping back from kexeced kernel and jumping to the new
kernel, the state of devices and CPU are restored accordingly. The
devices/CPU state save/restore code of software suspend is called to
implement corresponding function.

Known issues:

- Because the segment number supported by sys_kexec_load is limited,
  hibernation image with many segments may not be load. This is
  planned to be eliminated by adding a new flag to sys_kexec_load to
  make a image can be loaded with multiple sys_kexec_load invoking.

Now, only the i386 architecture is supported.

Huang Ying 3ab8352137 kexec jump
This patch provides an enhancement to kexec/kdump.  It implements the
following features:

- Backup/restore memory used by the original kernel before/after
  kexec.

- Save/restore CPU state before/after kexec.

The features of this patch can be used as a general method to call program in
physical mode (paging turning off).  This can be used to call BIOS code under
Linux.

kexec-tools needs to be patched to support kexec jump. The patches and
the precompiled kexec can be download from the following URL:

       source: http://khibernation.sourceforge.net/download/release_v10/kexec-tools/kexec-tools-src_git_kh10.tar.bz2

       binary: http://khibernation.sourceforge.net/download/release_v10/kexec-tools/kexec_git_kh10

Usage example of calling some physical mode code and return:

1. Compile and install patched kernel with following options selected:

CONFIG_X86_32=y
CONFIG_KEXEC=y
CONFIG_PM=y
CONFIG_KEXEC_JUMP=y

2. Build patched kexec-tool or download the pre-built one.

3. Build some physical mode executable named such as "phy_mode"

4. Boot kernel compiled in step 1.

5. Load physical mode executable with /sbin/kexec. The shell command
   line can be as follow:

   /sbin/kexec --load-preserve-context --args-none phy_mode

6. Call physical mode executable with following shell command line:

   /sbin/kexec -e

Implementation point:

To support jumping without reserving memory.  One shadow backup page (source
page) is allocated for each page used by kexeced code image (destination
page).  When do kexec_load, the image of kexeced code is loaded into source
pages, and before executing, the destination pages and the source pages are
swapped, so the contents of destination pages are backupped.  Before jumping
to the kexeced code image and after jumping back to the original kernel, the
destination pages and the source pages are swapped too.

C ABI (calling convention) is used as communication protocol between
kernel and called code.

A flag named KEXEC_PRESERVE_CONTEXT for sys_kexec_load is added to
indicate that the loaded kernel image is used for jumping back.

Now, only the i386 architecture is supported.

Mike Travis b8d317d10c cpumask: make cpumask_of_cpu_map generic
If an arch doesn't define cpumask_of_cpu_map, create a generic
statically-initialized one for them.  This allows removal of the buggy
cpumask_of_cpu() macro (&cpumask_of_cpu() gives address of
out-of-scope var).

An arch with NR_CPUS of 4096 probably wants to allocate this itself
based on the actual number of CPUs, since otherwise they're using 2MB
of rodata (1024 cpus means 128k).  That's what
CONFIG_HAVE_CPUMASK_OF_CPU_MAP is for (only x86/64 does so at the
moment).

In future as we support more CPUs, we'll need to resort to a
get_cpu_map()/put_cpu_map() allocation scheme.

Keika Kobayashi 873b477177 per-task-delay-accounting: add memory reclaim delay
Sometimes, application responses become bad under heavy memory load.
Applications take a bit time to reclaim memory.  The statistics, how long
memory reclaim takes, will be useful to measure memory usage.

This patch adds accounting memory reclaim to per-task-delay-accounting for
accounting the time of do_try_to_free_pages().

<i.e>

- When System is under low memory load,
  memory reclaim may not occur.

negative, but the possible negativity of the result of the division is
cast away, and it shouldn't end up negative anyway.

This was introduced by patch f3cef7a994.

Andrea Righi 297c5d9263 task IO accounting: provide distinct tgid/tid I/O statistics
Report per-thread I/O statistics in /proc/pid/task/tid/io and aggregate
parent I/O statistics in /proc/pid/io.  This approach follows the same
model used to account per-process and per-thread CPU times.

As a practial application, this allows for example to quickly find the top
I/O consumer when a process spawns many child threads that perform the
actual I/O work, because the aggregated I/O statistics can always be found
in /proc/pid/io.

[ Oleg Nesterov points out that we should check that the task is still
  alive before we iterate over the threads, but also says that we can do
  that fixup on top of this later.  - Linus ]

Pavel Emelyanov 081e4c8a75 bsdacct: rename acct_gbls to bsd_acct_struct
After I fixed access to task->tgid in kernel/acct.c, Oleg pointed out some
bad side effects with this accounting vs pid namespaces interaction.  I.e.
 when some task in pid namespace sets this accounting up, this blocks all
the others from doing the same.  Restricting this to init namespace only
could help, but didn't look a graceful solution.

So here is the approach to make this accounting work with pid namespaces
properly.

The idea is simple - when a task dies it accounts itself in each namespace
it is visible from and which set the accounting up.

For example here are the commands run and the output of lastcomm from init
and sub namespaces:

init_ns# accton pacct
 sub_ns# accton pacct (this is a different file - sub ns is run in
                       a chroot-ed environment)
init_ns# cat /dev/null
 sub_ns# ls /dev/null
init_ns# accton
 sub_ns# accton

 sub_ns#  lastcomm -f pacct
ls                      0        [136,0]    0.00 secs Thu May 15 10:30
accton                  0        [136,0]    0.00 secs Thu May 15 10:30

init_ns# lastcomm -f pacct
accton                  root     pts/0      0.00 secs Thu May 15 14:30 << got from sub
cat                     root     pts/1      0.00 secs Thu May 15 14:30
ls                      root     pts/0      0.00 secs Thu May 15 14:30 << got from sub
accton                  root     pts/1      0.00 secs Thu May 15 14:30

That was the summary, the details are in patches.

This patch:

It will be visible in pid_namespace.h file, so fix its name to look better
outside the acct.c file.

workqueue_cpu_callback(CPU_UP_PREPARE) expects that if it returns

However, this is not true since

	"cpu hotplug: cpu: deliver CPU_UP_CANCELED only to NOTIFY_OKed callbacks with CPU_UP_PREPARE"
	commit: a0d8cdb652

The callback which has returned NOTIFY_BAD will not receive
CPU_UP_CANCELED.  Change the code to fulfil the CPU_UP_CANCELED logic if
CPU_UP_PREPARE fails.

Oleg Nesterov db70089722 workqueues: implement flush_work()
Most of users of flush_workqueue() can be changed to use cancel_work_sync(),
but sometimes we really need to wait for the completion and cancelling is not
an option. schedule_on_each_cpu() is good example.

Add the new helper, flush_work(work), which waits for the completion of the
specific work_struct. More precisely, it "flushes" the result of of the last
queue_work() which is visible to the caller.

For example, this code

	queue_work(wq, work);
	/* WINDOW */
	queue_work(wq, work);

	flush_work(work);

doesn't necessary work "as expected". What can happen in the WINDOW above is

	- wq starts the execution of work->func()

	- the caller migrates to another CPU

now, after the 2nd queue_work() this work is active on the previous CPU, and
at the same time it is queued on another. In this case flush_work(work) may
return before the first work->func() completes.

It is trivial to add another helper

	int flush_work_sync(struct work_struct *work)
	{
		return flush_work(work) || wait_on_work(work);
	}

which works "more correctly", but it has to iterate over all CPUs and thus
it much slower than flush_work().

With this patch each thread allocates the list node on exit_mm()'s stack and

This allows us to do further changes:

	- change exit_mm() to clear ->mm first, then wait for ->core_done.

Oleg Nesterov 246bb0b1de kill PF_BORROWED_MM in favour of PF_KTHREAD
Kill PF_BORROWED_MM.  Change use_mm/unuse_mm to not play with ->flags, and
do s/PF_BORROWED_MM/PF_KTHREAD/ for a couple of other users.

No functional changes yet.  But this allows us to do further
fixes/cleanups.

oom_kill/ptrace/etc often check "p->mm != NULL" to filter out the
kthreads, this is wrong because of use_mm().  The problem with
PF_BORROWED_MM is that we need task_lock() to avoid races.  With this
patch we can check PF_KTHREAD directly, or use a simple lockless helper:

	/* The result must not be dereferenced !!! */
	struct mm_struct *__get_task_mm(struct task_struct *tsk)
	{
		if (tsk->flags & PF_KTHREAD)
			return NULL;
		return tsk->mm;
	}

Note also ecard_task().  It runs with ->mm != NULL, but it's the kernel
thread without PF_BORROWED_MM.

Oleg Nesterov 7b34e4283c introduce PF_KTHREAD flag
Introduce the new PF_KTHREAD flag to mark the kernel threads.  It is set
by INIT_TASK() and copied to the forked childs (we could set it in
kthreadd() along with PF_NOFREEZE instead).

daemonize() was changed as well.  In that case testing of PF_KTHREAD is
racy, but daemonize() is hopeless anyway.

This flag is cleared in do_execve(), before search_binary_handler().
Probably not the best place, we can do this in exec_mmap() or in
start_thread(), or clear it along with PF_FORKNOEXEC.  But I think this
doesn't matter in practice, and if do_execve() fails kthread should die
soon.

Oleg Nesterov 3d749b9e67 ptrace: simplify ptrace_stop()->sigkill_pending() path
1. SIGKILL can't be blocked, remove this check from sigkill_pending().

2. When ptrace_stop() sees sigkill_pending() == T, it can just return.
   Kill "int killed" and simplify the code. This also is more correct,
   the tracer shouldn't see us in TASK_TRACED if we are not going to
   stop.

I strongly believe this code needs further changes.  We should do the "was
this task killed" check unconditionally, currently it depends on
arch_ptrace_stop_needed().  On the other hand, sigkill_pending() isn't
very clever.  If the task was killed tkill(SIGKILL), the signal can be
already dequeued if the caller is do_exit().

In the switch to configurable HZ in 2.6, the treatment of the si_utime and
si_stime fields that are exposed to userland via the siginfo structure
looks to have been botched.  As things stand, these fields report times in
units of HZ, so that userland gets information that varies depending on
the HZ that the kernel was configured with.  This patch changes the
reported values to use USER_HZ units.

Oleg Nesterov 92413d771e signals: dequeue_signal: don't check SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT when setting SIGNAL_STOP_DEQUEUED
dequeue_signal() checks SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT before setting
SIGNAL_STOP_DEQUEUED.  This was added by
788e05a67c a long ago to avoid the
coredump/SIGSTOP race.

Since then the related code was changed, and now this subtle check is both
incomplete and unneeded at the same time.  It is incomplete because
nowadays exec() doesn't set SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT, so in fact we should check
signal_group_exit() to avoid a similar race.  Fortunately, we doesn't need
the check at all.  The only function which relies on SIGNAL_STOP_DEQUEUED
is do_signal_stop(), and it ignores this flag if signal_group_exit() == T,
this covers the SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT case.

And local variable tsk is used 14 times and statement task_cs(tsk) is used

is better for readability.

And "(struct cgroup_scanner *)&scan" is not good for readability also.

Miao Xie f9b4fb8dab cpusets: update task's cpus_allowed and mems_allowed after CPU/NODE offline/online
The bug is that a task may run on the cpu/node which is not in its
cpuset.cpus/ cpuset.mems.

It can be reproduced by the following commands:
-----------------------------------
# mkdir /dev/cpuset
# mount -t cpuset xxx /dev/cpuset
# mkdir /dev/cpuset/0
# echo 0-1 > /dev/cpuset/0/cpus
# echo 0 > /dev/cpuset/0/mems
# echo $$ > /dev/cpuset/0/tasks
# echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
# echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
-----------------------------------

There is only CPU0 in cpuset.cpus, but the task in this cpuset runs on
both CPU0 and CPU1.

It is because the task's cpu_allowed didn't get updated after we did CPU
offline/online manipulation.  Similar for mem_allowed.

This patch fixes this bug expect for root cpuset.  Because there is a
problem about root cpuset, in that whether it is necessary to update all
the tasks in root cpuset or not after cpu/node offline/online.

If updating, some kernel threads which is bound into a specified cpu will
be unbound.

If not updating, there is a bug in root cpuset.  This bug is also caused
by offline/online manipulation.  For example, there is a dual-cpu machine.
 we create a sub cpuset in root cpuset and assign 1 to its cpus.  And then
we attach some tasks into this sub cpuset.  After this, we offline CPU1.
Now, the tasks in this new cpuset are moved into root cpuset automatically
because there is no cpu in sub cpuset.  Then we online CPU1, we find all
the tasks which doesn't belong to root cpuset originally just run on CPU0.

Maybe we need to add a flag in the task_struct to mark which task can't be
unbound?

Serge E. Hallyn e885dcde75 cgroup_clone: use pid of newly created task for new cgroup
cgroup_clone creates a new cgroup with the pid of the task.  This works
correctly for unshare, but for clone cgroup_clone is called from
copy_namespaces inside copy_process, which happens before the new pid is
created.  As a result, the new cgroup was created with current's pid.
This patch:

	1. Moves the call inside copy_process to after the new pid
	   is created
	2. Passes the struct pid into ns_cgroup_clone (as it is not
	   yet attached to the task)
	3. Passes a name from ns_cgroup_clone() into cgroup_clone()
	   so as to keep cgroup_clone() itself simpler
	4. Uses pid_vnr() to get the process id value, so that the
	   pid used to name the new cgroup is always the pid as it
	   would be known to the task which did the cloning or
	   unsharing.  I think that is the most intuitive thing to
	   do.  This way, task t1 does clone(CLONE_NEWPID) to get
	   t2, which does clone(CLONE_NEWPID) to get t3, then the
	   cgroup for t3 will be named for the pid by which t2 knows
	   t3.

(Thanks to Dan Smith for finding the main bug)

Changelog:
	June 11: Incorporate Paul Menage's feedback:  don't pass
	         NULL to ns_cgroup_clone from unshare, and reduce
		 patch size by using 'nodename' in cgroup_clone.

Paul Menage 856c13aa1f cgroup files: convert res_counter_write() to be a cgroups write_string() handler
Currently res_counter_write() is a raw file handler even though it's
ultimately taking a number, since in some cases it wants to
pre-process the string when converting it to a number.

This patch converts res_counter_write() from a raw file handler to a
write_string() handler; this allows some of the boilerplate
copying/locking/checking to be removed, and simplies the cleanup path,
since these functions are now performed by the cgroups framework.

semantics are that a buffer is copied from userspace to kernelspace
and the handler function invoked on that buffer.  The buffer is
guaranteed to be nul-terminated, and no longer than max_write_len
(defaulting to 64 bytes if unspecified). Later patches will convert
existing raw file write handlers in control group subsystems to use
this method.

Srinivasa D S ef53d9c5e4 kprobes: improve kretprobe scalability with hashed locking
Currently list of kretprobe instances are stored in kretprobe object (as
used_instances,free_instances) and in kretprobe hash table.  We have one
global kretprobe lock to serialise the access to these lists.  This causes
only one kretprobe handler to execute at a time.  Hence affects system
performance, particularly on SMP systems and when return probe is set on
lot of functions (like on all systemcalls).

Solution proposed here gives fine-grain locks that performs better on SMP
system compared to present kretprobe implementation.

Solution:

 1) Instead of having one global lock to protect kretprobe instances
    present in kretprobe object and kretprobe hash table.  We will have
    two locks, one lock for protecting kretprobe hash table and another
    lock for kretporbe object.

 2) We hold lock present in kretprobe object while we modify kretprobe
    instance in kretprobe object and we hold per-hash-list lock while
    modifying kretprobe instances present in that hash list.  To prevent
    deadlock, we never grab a per-hash-list lock while holding a kretprobe
    lock.

 3) We can remove used_instances from struct kretprobe, as we can
    track used instances of kretprobe instances using kretprobe hash
    table.

Time duration for kernel compilation ("make -j 8") on a 8-way ppc64 system
with return probes set on all systemcalls looks like this.

Dave Young 717115e1a5 printk ratelimiting rewrite
All ratelimit user use same jiffies and burst params, so some messages
(callbacks) will be lost.

For example:
a call printk_ratelimit(5 * HZ, 1)
b call printk_ratelimit(5 * HZ, 1) before the 5*HZ timeout of a, then b will
will be supressed.

- rewrite __ratelimit, and use a ratelimit_state as parameter.  Thanks for
  hints from andrew.

- Add WARN_ON_RATELIMIT, update rcupreempt.h

- remove __printk_ratelimit

- use __ratelimit in net_ratelimit

KOSAKI Motohiro ac331d158e call_usermodehelper(): increase reliability
Presently call_usermodehelper_setup() uses GFP_ATOMIC.  but it can return
NULL _very_ easily.

GFP_ATOMIC is needed only when we can't sleep.  and, GFP_KERNEL is robust
and better.

thus, I add gfp_mask argument to call_usermodehelper_setup().

So, its callers pass the gfp_t as below:

call_usermodehelper() and call_usermodehelper_keys():
	depend on 'wait' argument.
call_usermodehelper_pipe():
	always GFP_KERNEL because always run under process context.
orderly_poweroff():
	pass to GFP_ATOMIC because may run under interrupt context.

Adrian Bunk b03f6489f9 build kernel/profile.o only when requested
Build kernel/profile.o only if CONFIG_PROFILING is enabled.

This makes CONFIG_PROFILING=n kernels smaller.

As a bonus, some profile_tick() calls and one branch from schedule() are
now eliminated with CONFIG_PROFILING=n (but I doubt these are
measurable effects).

This patch changes the effects of CONFIG_PROFILING=n, but I don't think
having more than two choices would be the better choice.

This patch also adds the name of the first parameter to the prototypes
of profile_{hits,tick}() since I anyway had to add them for the dummy
functions.

Ulrich Drepper aaca0bdca5 flag parameters: paccept
This patch is by far the most complex in the series.  It adds a new syscall
paccept.  This syscall differs from accept in that it adds (at the userlevel)
two additional parameters:

- a signal mask
- a flags value

The flags parameter can be used to set flag like SOCK_CLOEXEC.  This is
imlpemented here as well.  Some people argued that this is a property which
should be inherited from the file desriptor for the server but this is against
POSIX.  Additionally, we really want the signal mask parameter as well
(similar to pselect, ppoll, etc).  So an interface change in inevitable.

The flag value is the same as for socket and socketpair.  I think diverging
here will only create confusion.  Similar to the filesystem interfaces where
the use of the O_* constants differs, it is acceptable here.

The signal mask is handled as for pselect etc.  The mask is temporarily
installed for the thread and removed before the call returns.  I modeled the
code after pselect.  If there is a problem it's likely also in pselect.

For architectures which use socketcall I maintained this interface instead of
adding a system call.  The symmetry shouldn't be broken.

The following test must be adjusted for architectures other than x86 and
x86-64 and in case the syscall numbers changed.

Uwe Kleine-König 82736f4d1d generic irqs: handle failure of irqchip->set_type in setup_irq
set_type returns an int indicating success or failure, but up to now
setup_irq ignores that.

In my case this resulted in a machine hang:

gpio-keys requested IRQF_TRIGGER_RISING | IRQF_TRIGGER_FALLING, but
arm/ns9xxx can only trigger on one direction so set_type didn't touch
the configuration which happens do default to a level sensitiveness and
returned -EINVAL.  setup_irq ignored that and unmasked the irq.  This
resulted in an endless triggering of the gpio-key interrupt service
routine which effectively killed the machine.

With this patch applied setup_irq propagates the error to the caller.

Note that before in the case

	chip && !chip->set_type && !chip->name

a NULL pointer was feed to printk.  This is fixed, too.

David Howells f0af566da6 pm: fix try_to_freeze_tasks()'s use of do_div()
Fix try_to_freeze_tasks()'s use of do_div() on an s64 by making
elapsed_csecs64 a u64 instead and dividing that.

Possibly this should be guarded lest the interval calculation turn up
negative, but the possible negativity of the result of the division is
cast away anyway.

This was introduced by patch 438e2ce68d.

schedule sysrq poweroff on boot cpu.

sysrq poweroff needs to disable nonboot cpus, and we need to run this on boot
cpu to avoid any recursion.  http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10897
