Tejun Heo 46f3d97621 kthread_worker: reimplement flush_kthread_work() to allow freeing the work item being executed
kthread_worker provides minimalistic workqueue-like interface for
users which need a dedicated worker thread (e.g. for realtime
priority).  It has basic queue, flush_work, flush_worker operations
which mostly match the workqueue counterparts; however, due to the way
flush_work() is implemented, it has a noticeable difference of not
allowing work items to be freed while being executed.

While the current users of kthread_worker are okay with the current
behavior, the restriction does impede some valid use cases.  Also,
removing this difference isn't difficult and actually makes the code
easier to understand.

This patch reimplements flush_kthread_work() such that it uses a
flush_work item instead of queue/done sequence numbers.

Linus Torvalds 9a2bc8603e Merge branch 'anton-kgdb' (kgdb dmesg fixups)
Merge emailed kgdb dmesg fixups patches from Anton Vorontsov:
 "The dmesg command appears to be broken after the printk rework.  The
  old logic in the kdb code makes no sense in terms of current
  printk/logging storage format, and KDB simply hangs forever upon
  entering 'dmesg' command.

  The first patch revives the command by switching to kmsg_dumper
  iterator.  As a side-effect, the code is now much more simpler.

  A few changes were needed in the printk.c: we needed unlocked variant
  of the kmsg_dumper iterator, but these can surely wait for 3.6.

  It's probably too late even for the first patch to go to 3.5, but I'll
  try to convince otherwise.  :-) Here we go:

   - The current code is broken for sure, and has no hope to work at
     all.  It is a regression
   - The new code works for me, and probably works for everyone else;
   - If it compiles (and I urge everyone to compile-test it on your
     setup), it hardly can make things worse."

Dan Williams a4683487f9 [SCSI] async: make async_synchronize_full() flush all work regardless of domain
In response to an async related regression James noted:

  "My theory is that this is an init problem: The assumption in a lot of
   our code is that async_synchronize_full() waits for everything ... even
   the domain specific async schedules, which isn't true."

...so make this assumption true.

Each domain, including the default one, registers itself on a global domain
list when work is scheduled.  Once all entries complete it exits that
list.  Waiting for the list to be empty syncs all in-flight work across
all domains.

Domains can opt-out of global syncing if they are declared as exclusive
ASYNC_DOMAIN_EXCLUSIVE().  All stack-based domains have been declared
exclusive since the domain may go out of scope as soon as the last work
item completes.

Statically declared domains are mostly ok, but async_unregister_domain()
is there to close any theoretical races with pending
async_synchronize_full waiters at module removal time.

Vivek Goyal 6791457a09 printk: Export struct log size and member offsets through vmcoreinfo
There are tools like makedumpfile and vmcore-dmesg which can extract
kernel log buffer from vmcore. Since we introduced structured logging,
that functionality is broken. Now user space tools need to know about
"struct log" and offsets of various fields to be able to parse struct
log data and extract text message or dictonary.

This patch exports some of the fields.

Currently I am not exporting log "level" info as that is a bitfield and
offsetof() bitfields can't be calculated. But if people start asking for
log level info in the output then we probably either need to seprate
out "level" or use bit shift operations for flags and level.

Linus Torvalds eea03c20ae Make wait_for_device_probe() also do scsi_complete_async_scans()
Commit a7a20d1039 ("sd: limit the scope of the async probe domain")
make the SCSI device probing run device discovery in it's own async
domain.

However, as a result, the partition detection was no longer synchronized
by async_synchronize_full() (which, despite the name, only synchronizes
the global async space, not all of them).  Which in turn meant that
"wait_for_device_probe()" would not wait for the SCSI partitions to be
parsed.

And "wait_for_device_probe()" was what the boot time init code relied on
for mounting the root filesystem.

Now, most people never noticed this, because not only is it
timing-dependent, but modern distributions all use initrd.  So the root
filesystem isn't actually on a disk at all.  And then before they
actually mount the final disk filesystem, they will have loaded the
scsi-wait-scan module, which not only does the expected
wait_for_device_probe(), but also does scsi_complete_async_scans().

[ Side note: scsi_complete_async_scans() had also been partially broken,
  but that was fixed in commit 43a8d39d01 ("fix async probe
  regression"), so that same commit a7a20d1039 had actually broken
  setups even if you used scsi-wait-scan explicitly ]

Solve this problem by just moving the scsi_complete_async_scans() call
into wait_for_device_probe().  Everybody who wants to wait for device
probing to finish really wants the SCSI probing to complete, so there's
no reason not to do this.

So now "wait_for_device_probe()" really does what the name implies, and
properly waits for device probing to finish.  This also removes the now
unnecessary extra calls to scsi_complete_async_scans().

Tejun Heo 628c78e7ea workqueue: remove CPU offline trustee
With the previous changes, a disassociated global_cwq now can run as
an unbound one on its own - it can create workers as necessary to
drain remaining works after the CPU has been brought down and manage
the number of workers using the usual idle timer mechanism making
trustee completely redundant except for the actual unbinding
operation.

This patch removes the trustee and let a disassociated global_cwq
manage itself.  Unbinding is moved to a work item (for CPU affinity)
which is scheduled and flushed from CPU_DONW_PREPARE.

This patch moves nr_running clearing outside gcwq and manager locks to
simplify the code.  As nr_running is unused at the point, this is
safe.

Tejun Heo 3ce6337730 workqueue: don't butcher idle workers on an offline CPU
Currently, during CPU offlining, after all pending work items are
drained, the trustee butchers all workers.  Also, on CPU onlining
failure, workqueue_cpu_callback() ensures that the first idle worker
is destroyed.  Combined, these guarantee that an offline CPU doesn't
have any worker for it once all the lingering work items are finished.

This guarantee isn't really necessary and makes CPU on/offlining more
expensive than needs to be, especially for platforms which use CPU
hotplug for powersaving.

This patch lets offline CPUs removes idle worker butchering from the
trustee and let a CPU which failed onlining keep the created first
worker.  The first worker is created if the CPU doesn't have any
during CPU_DOWN_PREPARE and started right away.  If onlining succeeds,
the rebind_workers() call in CPU_ONLINE will rebind it like any other
workers.  If onlining fails, the worker is left alone till the next
try.

This makes CPU hotplugs cheaper by allowing global_cwqs to keep
workers across them and simplifies code.

Note that trustee doesn't re-arm idle timer when it's done and thus
the disassociated global_cwq will keep all workers until it comes back
online.  This will be improved by further patches.

Tejun Heo 25511a4776 workqueue: reimplement CPU online rebinding to handle idle workers
Currently, if there are left workers when a CPU is being brough back
online, the trustee kills all idle workers and scheduled rebind_work
so that they re-bind to the CPU after the currently executing work is
finished.  This works for busy workers because concurrency management
doesn't try to wake up them from scheduler callbacks, which require
the target task to be on the local run queue.  The busy worker bumps
concurrency counter appropriately as it clears WORKER_UNBOUND from the
rebind work item and it's bound to the CPU before returning to the
idle state.

To reduce CPU on/offlining overhead (as many embedded systems use it
for powersaving) and simplify the code path, workqueue is planned to
be modified to retain idle workers across CPU on/offlining.  This
patch reimplements CPU online rebinding such that it can also handle
idle workers.

As noted earlier, due to the local wakeup requirement, rebinding idle
workers is tricky.  All idle workers must be re-bound before scheduler
callbacks are enabled.  This is achieved by interlocking idle
re-binding.  Idle workers are requested to re-bind and then hold until
all idle re-binding is complete so that no bound worker starts
executing work item.  Only after all idle workers are re-bound and
parked, CPU_ONLINE proceeds to release them and queue rebind work item
to busy workers thus guaranteeing scheduler callbacks aren't invoked
until all idle workers are ready.

worker_rebind_fn() is renamed to busy_worker_rebind_fn() and
idle_worker_rebind() for idle workers is added.  Rebinding logic is
moved to rebind_workers() and now called from CPU_ONLINE after
flushing trustee.  While at it, add CPU sanity check in
worker_thread().

Note that now a worker may become idle or the manager between trustee
release and rebinding during CPU_ONLINE.  As the previous patch
updated create_worker() so that it can be used by regular manager
while unbound and this patch implements idle re-binding, this is safe.

This prepares for removal of trustee and keeping idle workers across
CPU hotplugs.

Tejun Heo bc2ae0f5bb workqueue: drop @bind from create_worker()
Currently, create_worker()'s callers are responsible for deciding
whether the newly created worker should be bound to the associated CPU
and create_worker() sets WORKER_UNBOUND only for the workers for the
unbound global_cwq.  Creation during normal operation is always via
maybe_create_worker() and @bind is true.  For workers created during
hotplug, @bind is false.

Normal operation path is planned to be used even while the CPU is
going through hotplug operations or offline and this static decision
won't work.

Drop @bind from create_worker() and decide whether to bind by looking
at GCWQ_DISASSOCIATED.  create_worker() will also set WORKER_UNBOUND
autmatically if disassociated.  To avoid flipping GCWQ_DISASSOCIATED
while create_worker() is in progress, the flag is now allowed to be
changed only while holding all manager_mutexes on the global_cwq.

This requires that GCWQ_DISASSOCIATED is not cleared behind trustee's
back.  CPU_ONLINE no longer clears DISASSOCIATED before flushing
trustee, which clears DISASSOCIATED before rebinding remaining workers
if asked to release.  For cases where trustee isn't around, CPU_ONLINE
clears DISASSOCIATED after flushing trustee.  Also, now, first_idle
has UNBOUND set on creation which is explicitly cleared by CPU_ONLINE
while binding it.  These convolutions will soon be removed by further
simplification of CPU hotplug path.

Tejun Heo 6037315269 workqueue: use mutex for global_cwq manager exclusion
POOL_MANAGING_WORKERS is used to ensure that at most one worker takes
the manager role at any given time on a given global_cwq.  Trustee
later hitched on it to assume manager adding blocking wait for the
bit.  As trustee already needed a custom wait mechanism, waiting for
MANAGING_WORKERS was rolled into the same mechanism.

Trustee is scheduled to be removed.  This patch separates out
MANAGING_WORKERS wait into per-pool mutex.  Workers use
mutex_trylock() to test for manager role and trustee uses mutex_lock()
to claim manager roles.

gcwq_claim/release_management() helpers are added to grab and release
manager roles of all pools on a global_cwq.  gcwq_claim_management()
always grabs pool manager mutexes in ascending pool index order and
uses pool index as lockdep subclass.

Tejun Heo 6575820221 workqueue: perform cpu down operations from low priority cpu_notifier()
Currently, all workqueue cpu hotplug operations run off
CPU_PRI_WORKQUEUE which is higher than normal notifiers.  This is to
ensure that workqueue is up and running while bringing up a CPU before
other notifiers try to use workqueue on the CPU.

Per-cpu workqueues are supposed to remain working and bound to the CPU
for normal CPU_DOWN_PREPARE notifiers.  This holds mostly true even
with workqueue offlining running with higher priority because
workqueue CPU_DOWN_PREPARE only creates a bound trustee thread which
runs the per-cpu workqueue without concurrency management without
explicitly detaching the existing workers.

However, if the trustee needs to create new workers, it creates
unbound workers which may wander off to other CPUs while
CPU_DOWN_PREPARE notifiers are in progress.  Furthermore, if the CPU
down is cancelled, the per-CPU workqueue may end up with workers which
aren't bound to the CPU.

While reliably reproducible with a convoluted artificial test-case
involving scheduling and flushing CPU burning work items from CPU down
notifiers, this isn't very likely to happen in the wild, and, even
when it happens, the effects are likely to be hidden by the following
successful CPU down.

Fix it by using different priorities for up and down notifiers - high
priority for up operations and low priority for down operations.

Workqueue cpu hotplug operations will soon go through further cleanup.

If the the console is busy and the continuation line is complete, but no part

entire line as a regular record and free the buffer earlier.

If the console is busy and earlier messages are already queued up, we
should not flush the fragments of continuation lines, but store them after
the queued up messages, to ensure the proper ordering.

This keeps the console output better readable in case printk()s race against

Thomas Gleixner 3e997130bd timekeeping: Add missing update call in timekeeping_resume()
The leap second rework unearthed another issue of inconsistent data.

On timekeeping_resume() the timekeeper data is updated, but nothing
calls timekeeping_update(), so now the update code in the timer
interrupt sees stale values.

This has been the case before those changes, but then the timer
interrupt was using stale data as well so this went unnoticed for quite
some time.

Add the missing update call, so all the data is consistent everywhere.

John Stultz f726a697d0 time: Rework timekeeping functions to take timekeeper ptr as argument
As part of cleaning up the timekeeping code, this patch converts
a number of internal functions to takei a timekeeper ptr as an
argument, so that the internal functions don't access the global
timekeeper structure directly. This allows for further optimizations
to reduce lock hold time later.

This patch has been updated to include more consistent usage of the
timekeeper value, by making sure it is always passed as a argument
to non top-level functions.

John Stultz 2a8c0883c3 time: Move xtime_nsec adjustment underflow handling timekeeping_adjust
When we make adjustments speeding up the clock, its possible
for xtime_nsec to underflow. We already handle this properly,
but we do so from update_wall_time() instead of the more logical
timekeeping_adjust(), where the possible underflow actually
occurs.

Thus, move the correction logic to the timekeeping_adjust, which
is the function that causes the issue. Making update_wall_time()
more readable.

John Stultz 1e75fa8be9 time: Condense timekeeper.xtime into xtime_sec
The timekeeper struct has a xtime_nsec, which keeps the
sub-nanosecond remainder.  This ends up being somewhat
duplicative of the timekeeper.xtime.tv_nsec value, and we
have to do extra work to keep them apart, copying the full
nsec portion out and back in over and over.

This patch simplifies some of the logic by taking the timekeeper
xtime value and splitting it into timekeeper.xtime_sec and
reuses the timekeeper.xtime_nsec for the sub-second portion
(stored in higher res shifted nanoseconds).

This simplifies some of the accumulation logic. And will
allow for more accurate timekeeping once the vsyscall code
is updated to use the shifted nanosecond remainder.

from being cleared from time_status via adjtimex()
without forcing STA_PLL first.

Usually once the STA_INS is set, it isn't cleared
until the leap second is applied, so its unlikely this
affected anyone. However during testing I noticed it
took some effort to cancel a leap second once STA_INS
was set.

Theodore Ts'o 775f4b297b random: make 'add_interrupt_randomness()' do something sane
We've been moving away from add_interrupt_randomness() for various
reasons: it's too expensive to do on every interrupt, and flooding the
CPU with interrupts could theoretically cause bogus floods of entropy
from a somewhat externally controllable source.

This solves both problems by limiting the actual randomness addition
to just once a second or after 64 interrupts, whicever comes first.
During that time, the interrupt cycle data is buffered up in a per-cpu
pool.  Also, we make sure the the nonblocking pool used by urandom is
initialized before we start feeding the normal input pool.  This
assures that /dev/urandom is returning unpredictable data as soon as
possible.

(Based on an original patch by Linus, but significantly modified by
tytso.)

Tejun Heo 3270476a6c workqueue: reimplement WQ_HIGHPRI using a separate worker_pool
WQ_HIGHPRI was implemented by queueing highpri work items at the head
of the global worklist.  Other than queueing at the head, they weren't
handled differently; unfortunately, this could lead to execution
latency of a few seconds on heavily loaded systems.

Now that workqueue code has been updated to deal with multiple
worker_pools per global_cwq, this patch reimplements WQ_HIGHPRI using
a separate worker_pool.  NR_WORKER_POOLS is bumped to two and
gcwq->pools[0] is used for normal pri work items and ->pools[1] for
highpri.  Highpri workers get -20 nice level and has 'H' suffix in
their names.  Note that this change increases the number of kworkers
per cpu.

POOL_HIGHPRI_PENDING, pool_determine_ins_pos() and highpri chain
wakeup code in process_one_work() are no longer used and removed.

This allows proper prioritization of highpri work items and removes
high execution latency of highpri work items.

John Stultz 5baefd6d84 hrtimer: Update hrtimer base offsets each hrtimer_interrupt
The update of the hrtimer base offsets on all cpus cannot be made
atomically from the timekeeper.lock held and interrupt disabled region
as smp function calls are not allowed there.

clock_was_set(), which enforces the update on all cpus, is called
either from preemptible process context in case of do_settimeofday()
or from the softirq context when the offset modification happened in
the timer interrupt itself due to a leap second.

In both cases there is a race window for an hrtimer interrupt between
dropping timekeeper lock, enabling interrupts and clock_was_set()
issuing the updates. Any interrupt which arrives in that window will
see the new time but operate on stale offsets.

So we need to make sure that an hrtimer interrupt always sees a
consistent state of time and offsets.

ktime_get_update_offsets() allows us to get the current monotonic time
and update the per cpu hrtimer base offsets from hrtimer_interrupt()
to capture a consistent state of monotonic time and the offsets. The
function replaces the existing ktime_get() calls in hrtimer_interrupt().

The overhead of the new function vs. ktime_get() is minimal as it just
adds two store operations.

This ensures that any changes to realtime or boottime offsets are
noticed and stored into the per-cpu hrtimer base structures, prior to
any hrtimer expiration and guarantees that timers are not expired early.

Thomas Gleixner f6c06abfb3 timekeeping: Provide hrtimer update function
To finally fix the infamous leap second issue and other race windows
caused by functions which change the offsets between the various time
bases (CLOCK_MONOTONIC, CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_BOOTTIME) we need a
function which atomically gets the current monotonic time and updates
the offsets of CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_BOOTTIME with minimalistic
overhead. The previous patch which provides ktime_t offsets allows us
to make this function almost as cheap as ktime_get() which is going to
be replaced in hrtimer_interrupt().

John Stultz 4873fa070a timekeeping: Fix leapsecond triggered load spike issue
The timekeeping code misses an update of the hrtimer subsystem after a
leap second happened. Due to that timers based on CLOCK_REALTIME are
either expiring a second early or late depending on whether a leap
second has been inserted or deleted until an operation is initiated
which causes that update. Unless the update happens by some other
means this discrepancy between the timekeeping and the hrtimer data
stays forever and timers are expired either early or late.

The reported immediate workaround - $ data -s "`date`" - is causing a
call to clock_was_set() which updates the hrtimer data structures.
See: http://www.sheeri.com/content/mysql-and-leap-second-high-cpu-and-fix

Add the missing clock_was_set() call to update_wall_time() in case of
a leap second event. The actual update is deferred to softirq context
as the necessary smp function call cannot be invoked from hard
interrupt context.

Grant Likely 98aa468e04 irqdomain: Support for static IRQ mapping and association.
This adds a new strict mapping API for supporting creation of linux IRQs
at existing positions within the domain. The new routines are as follows:

For dynamic allocation and insertion to specified ranges:

	- irq_create_identity_mapping()
	- irq_create_strict_mappings()

These will allocate and associate a range of linux IRQs at the specified
location. This can be used by controllers that have their own static linux IRQ
definitions to map a hwirq range to, as well as for platforms that wish to
establish 1:1 identity mapping between linux and hwirq space.

For insertion to specified ranges by platforms that do their own irq_desc
management:

	- irq_domain_associate()
	- irq_domain_associate_many()

These in turn call back in to the domain's ->map() routine, for further
processing by the platform. Disassociation of IRQs get handled through
irq_dispose_mapping() as normal.

With these in place it should be possible to begin migration of legacy IRQ
domains to linear ones, without requiring special handling for static vs
dynamic IRQ definitions in DT vs non-DT paths. This also makes it possible
for domains with static mappings to adopt whichever tree model best fits
their needs, rather than simply restricting them to linear revmaps.

Mark Brown 781d0f46d8 irq_domain: Standardise legacy/linear domain selection
A large proportion of interrupt controllers that support legacy mappings
do so because non-DT systems need to use fixed IRQ numbers when registering
devices via buses but can otherwise use a linear mapping. The interrupt
controller itself typically is not affected by the mapping used and best
practice is to use a linear mapping where possible so drivers frequently
select at runtime depending on if a legacy range has been allocated to
them.

Standardise this behaviour by providing irq_domain_register_simple() which
will allocate a linear mapping unless a positive first_irq is provided in
which case it will fall back to a legacy mapping. This helps make best
practice for irq_domain adoption clearer.

Tejun Heo 5db9a4d99b cgroup: fix cgroup hierarchy umount race
48ddbe1946 "cgroup: make css->refcnt clearing on cgroup removal
optional" allowed a css to linger after the associated cgroup is
removed.  As a css holds a reference on the cgroup's dentry, it means
that cgroup dentries may linger for a while.

Destroying a superblock which has dentries with positive refcnts is a
critical bug and triggers BUG() in vfs code.  As each cgroup dentry
holds an s_active reference, any lingering cgroup has both its dentry
and the superblock pinned and thus preventing premature release of
superblock.

Unfortunately, after 48ddbe1946, there's a small window while
releasing a cgroup which is directly under the root of the hierarchy.
When a cgroup directory is released, vfs layer first deletes the
corresponding dentry and then invokes dput() on the parent, which may
recurse further, so when a cgroup directly below root cgroup is
released, the cgroup is first destroyed - which releases the s_active
it was holding - and then the dentry for the root cgroup is dput().

This creates a window where the root dentry's refcnt isn't zero but
superblock's s_active is.  If umount happens before or during this
window, vfs will see the root dentry with non-zero refcnt and trigger
BUG().

Before 48ddbe1946, this problem didn't exist because the last dentry
reference was guaranteed to be put synchronously from rmdir(2)
invocation which holds s_active around the whole process.

Fix it by holding an extra superblock->s_active reference across
dput() from css release, which is the dput() path added by 48ddbe1946
and the only one which doesn't hold an extra s_active ref across the
final cgroup dput().

Kay Sievers cb424ffe9f kmsg: properly handle concurrent non-blocking read() from /proc/kmsg
The /proc/kmsg read() interface is internally simply wired up to a sequence
of syslog() syscalls, which might are racy between their checks and actions,
regarding concurrency.

In the (very uncommon) case of concurrent readers of /dev/kmsg, relying on
usual O_NONBLOCK behavior, the recently introduced mutex might block an
O_NONBLOCK reader in read(), when poll() returns for it, but another process
has already read the data in the meantime. We've seen that while running
artificial test setups and tools that "fight" about /proc/kmsg data.

This restores the original /proc/kmsg behavior, where in case of concurrent
read()s, poll() might wake up but the read() syscall will just return 0 to
the caller, while another process has "stolen" the data.

This is in the general case not the expected behavior, but it is the exact
same one, that can easily be triggered with a 3.4 kernel, and some tools
might just rely on it.

The mutex is not needed, the original integrity issue which introduced it,
is in the meantime covered by:

Ingo Molnar 5c09d127a1 Merge branch 'rcu/next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu into core/rcu
Pull the RCU tree from Paul E. McKenney:

"The major features of this series are:

1.	Preventing latency spikes of more than 200 microseconds for
	kernels built with NR_CPUS=4096, which is reportedly becoming
	the default for some distros.  This is a first step, as it does
	not help with systems that actually -have- 4096 CPUs (work on
	this case is in progress, but is not yet ready for mainline).
	This category also includes improving concurrency of rcu_barrier(),
	placed here due to conflicts.  Posted to LKML at:
	https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/6/22/381.  Note that patches 18-22
	of that series have been defered to 3.7, as they have not yet
	proven themselves to be mainline-ready (and yes, these are the
	ones intended to get rid of RCU's latency spikes for systems
	that actually have 4096 CPUs).
2.	Updates to documentation and rcutorture fixes, the latter category
	including improvements to rcu_barrier() testing.  Posted to LKML at:
	http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1206.1/04094.html.
3.	Miscellaneous fixes posted to LKML at:
	https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/6/22/500, with the exception of the
	last commit, which was posted here:
	http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/linux/kernel/1561830
4.	RCU_FAST_NO_HZ fixes and improvements.  Posted to LKML at:

	and http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/linux/kernel/1561833.
	The first four patches of the first series went into 3.5 to fix
	a regression.

Thanks to Charles Wang for spotting the defects in the current code:

 - If we go idle during the sample window -- after sampling, we get a

 - If we wake up during the sample window we get a positive bias

So rewrite the entire nohz load-avg muck once again, now adding

Paul E. McKenney c6ebcbb60c rcu: Fix bug in rcu_barrier() torture test
The child threads in the rcu_torture_barrier_cbs() are improperly
synchronized, which can cause the rcu_barrier() tests to hang.  The
failure mode is as follows:

1.	CPU 0 running in rcu_torture_barrier() sets barrier_cbs_count
    	to n_barrier_cbs.

2.	CPU 1 running in rcu_torture_barrier_cbs() wakes up, posts
    	its RCU callback, and atomically decrements barrier_cbs_count.
    	Because barrier_cbs_count is not zero, it does not do the wake_up().

3.	CPU 2 running in rcu_torture_barrier_cbs() wakes up, but
    	finds that barrier_cbs_count is not equal to n_barrier_cbs,
    	and so returns to sleep.

4.	The value of barrier_cbs_count therefore never reaches zero,
    	which causes the test to hang.

This commit therefore uses a phase variable to coordinate the test,
preventing this scenario from occurring.

Paul E. McKenney 1bca8cf1a2 rcu: Remove unneeded __rcu_process_callbacks() argument
With the advent of __this_cpu_ptr(), it is no longer necessary to pass
both the rcu_state and rcu_data structures into __rcu_process_callbacks().
This commit therefore computes the rcu_data pointer from the rcu_state
pointer within __rcu_process_callbacks() so that callers can pass in
only the pointer to the rcu_state structure.  This paves the way for
linking the rcu_state structures together and iterating over them.

Paul E. McKenney cf3a9c4842 rcu: Increase rcu_barrier() concurrency
The traditional rcu_barrier() implementation has serialized all requests,

In the past, this has been good and sufficient.

However, systems are getting larger and use of rcu_barrier() has been

the recent trend by many distros to define NR_CPUS=4096 results in

Srivatsa S. Bhat 443772d408 ftrace: Disable function tracing during suspend/resume and hibernation, again
If function tracing is enabled for some of the low-level suspend/resume
functions, it leads to triple fault during resume from suspend, ultimately
ending up in a reboot instead of a resume (or a total refusal to come out
of suspended state, on some machines).

This issue was explained in more detail in commit f42ac38c59 (ftrace:
disable tracing for suspend to ram). However, the changes made by that commit
got reverted by commit cbe2f5a6e8 (tracing: allow tracing of
suspend/resume & hibernation code again). So, unfortunately since things are
not yet robust enough to allow tracing of low-level suspend/resume functions,
suspend/resume is still broken when ftrace is enabled.

So fix this by disabling function tracing during suspend/resume & hibernation.

Pablo Neira Ayuso a31f2d17b3 netlink: add netlink_kernel_cfg parameter to netlink_kernel_create

        struct mutex    *cb_mutex;
};

That can be passed to netlink_kernel_create to set optional configurations
for netlink kernel sockets.

I've populated this structure by looking for NULL and zero parameters at the
existing code. The remaining parameters that always need to be set are still
left in the original interface.

That includes optional parameters for the netlink socket creation. This allows
easy extensibility of this interface in the future.

Kay Sievers 084681d14e printk: flush continuation lines immediately to console
Continuation lines are buffered internally, intended to merge the
chunked printk()s into a single record, and to isolate potentially
racy continuation users from usual terminated line users.

This though, has the effect that partial lines are not printed to
the console in the moment they are emitted. In case the kernel
crashes in the meantime, the potentially interesting printed
information would never reach the consoles.

Here we share the continuation buffer with the console copy logic,
and partial lines are always immediately flushed to the available
consoles. They are still buffered internally to improve the
readability and integrity of the messages and minimize the amount
of needed record headers to store.

Steven Rostedt a5fb833172 ring-buffer: Fix uninitialized read_stamp
The ring buffer reader page is used to swap a page from the writable
ring buffer. If the writer happens to be on that page, it ends up on the
reader page, but will simply move off of it, back into the writable ring
buffer as writes are added.

The time stamp passed back to the readers is stored in the cpu_buffer per
CPU descriptor. This stamp is updated when a swap of the reader page takes
place, and it reads the current stamp from the page taken from the writable
ring buffer. Everytime a writer goes to a new page, it updates the time stamp
of that page.

The problem happens if a reader reads a page from an empty per CPU ring buffer.
If the buffer is empty, the swap still takes place, placing the writer at the
start of the reader page. If at a later time, a write happens, it updates the
page's time stamp and continues. But the problem is that the read_stamp does
not get updated, because the page was already swapped.

The solution to this was to not swap the page if the ring buffer happens to
be empty. This also removes the side effect that the writes on the reader
page will not get updated because the writer never gets back on the reader
page without a swap. That is, if a read happens on an empty buffer, but then
no reads happen for a while. If a swap took place, and the writer were to start
writing a lot of data (function tracer), it will start overflowing the ring buffer
and overwrite the older data. But because the writer never goes back onto the
reader page, the data left on the reader page never gets overwritten. This
causes the reader to see really old data, followed by a jump to newer data.

Replace the NR_CPUS array of buffer_iter from the trace_iterator
with an allocated array. This will just create an array of
possible CPUS instead of the max number specified.

The use of NR_CPUS in that array caused allocation failures for
machines that were tight on memory. This did not cause any failures
to the system itself (no crashes), but caused unnecessary failures
for reading the trace files.

Added a helper function called 'trace_buffer_iter()' that returns
the buffer_iter item or NULL if it is not defined or the array was
not allocated. Some routines do not require the array

Jan Beulich 116e90b23f syslog: fill buffer with more than a single message for SYSLOG_ACTION_READ
The recent changes to the printk buffer management resulted in
SYSLOG_ACTION_READ to only return a single message, whereas previously
the buffer would get filled as much as possible. As, when too small to
fit everything, filling it to the last byte would be pretty ugly with
the new code, the patch arranges for as many messages as possible to
get returned in a single invocation. User space tools in at least all
SLES versions depend on the old behavior.

This at once addresses the issue attempted to get fixed with commit
b56a39ac26 ("printk: return -EINVAL if
the message len is bigger than the buf size"), and since that commit
widened the possibility for losing a message altogether, the patch
here assumes that this other commit would get reverted first
(otherwise the patch here won't apply).

Furthermore, this patch also addresses the problem dealt with in
commit 4a77a5a06e ("printk: use mutex
lock to stop syslog_seq from going wild"), so I'd recommend reverting
that one too (albeit there's no direct collision between the two).

Paul E. McKenney b41772abeb rcu: Stop rcu_do_batch() from multiplexing the "count" variable
Commit b1420f1c (Make rcu_barrier() less disruptive) rearranged the
code in rcu_do_batch(), moving the ->qlen manipulation to follow
the requeueing of the callbacks.  Unfortunately, this rearrangement
clobbered the value of the "count" local variable before the value
of rdp->qlen was adjusted, resulting in the value of rdp->qlen being
inaccurate.  This commit therefore introduces an index variable "i",
avoiding the inadvertent multiplexing.

Alan Stern 4661e3568a printk: fix regression in SYSLOG_ACTION_CLEAR
Commit 7ff9554bb5 (printk: convert
byte-buffer to variable-length record buffer) introduced a regression
by accidentally removing a "break" statement from inside the big
switch in printk's do_syslog().  The symptom of this bug is that the
"dmesg -C" command doesn't only clear the kernel's log buffer; it also
disables console logging.

This patch (as1561) fixes the regression by adding the missing
"break".

Alexander Duyck 6648bd7e0e ipv4: Add sysctl knob to control early socket demux
This change is meant to add a control for disabling early socket demux.
The main motivation behind this patch is to provide an option to disable
the feature as it adds an additional cost to routing that reduces overall
throughput by up to 5%.  For example one of my systems went from 12.1Mpps
to 11.6 after the early socket demux was added.  It looks like the reason
for the regression is that we are now having to perform two lookups, first
the one for an established socket, and then the one for the routing table.

By adding this patch and toggling the value for ip_early_demux to 0 I am
able to get back to the 12.1Mpps I was previously seeing.

Oleg Nesterov 50d75f8dae pidns: find_new_reaper() can no longer switch to init_pid_ns.child_reaper
find_new_reaper() changes pid_ns->child_reaper, see add0d4df ("pid_ns:
zap_pid_ns_processes: fix the ->child_reaper changing").

The original reason has gone away after the previous patch, ->children
list must be empty after zap_pid_ns_processes().

However now we can not switch to init_pid_ns.child_reaper.
__unhash_process() relies on the "->child_reaper == parent" check, but
this check does not work if the last exiting task is also the child
reaper.

As Eric sugested, we can change __unhash_process() to use the parent's
pid_ns and remove this code.

Also, with this change we can move detach_pid(PIDTYPE_PID) back, where it
was before the previous fix.

Eric W. Biederman 6347e90091 pidns: guarantee that the pidns init will be the last pidns process reaped
Today we have a twofold bug.  Sometimes release_task on pid == 1 in a pid
namespace can run before other processes in a pid namespace have had
release task called.  With the result that pid_ns_release_proc can be
called before the last proc_flus_task() is done using upid->ns->proc_mnt,
resulting in the use of a stale pointer.  This same set of circumstances
can lead to waitpid(...) returning for a processes started with
clone(CLONE_NEWPID) before the every process in the pid namespace has
actually exited.

To fix this modify zap_pid_ns_processess wait until all other processes in
the pid namespace have exited, even EXIT_DEAD zombies.

The delay_group_leader and related tests ensure that the thread gruop
leader will be the last thread of a process group to be reaped, or to
become EXIT_DEAD and self reap.  With the change to zap_pid_ns_processes
we get the guarantee that pid == 1 in a pid namespace will be the last
task that release_task is called on.

With pid == 1 being the last task to pass through release_task
pid_ns_release_proc can no longer be called too early nor can wait return
before all of the EXIT_DEAD tasks in a pid namespace have exited.

Salman Qazi 9c5da09d26 perf: Use css_tryget() to avoid propping up css refcount
An rmdir pushes css's ref count to zero.  However, if the associated
directory is open at the time, the dentry ref count is non-zero.  If
the fd for this directory is then passed into perf_event_open, it
does a css_get().  This bounces the ref count back up from zero.  This
is a problem by itself.  But what makes it turn into a crash is the
fact that we end up doing an extra dput, since we perform a dput
when css_put sees the ref count go down to zero.

css_tryget() does not fall into that trap. So, we use that instead.

 #include <unistd.h>
 #include <sys/types.h>

Yuanhan Liu 4a77a5a06e printk: use mutex lock to stop syslog_seq from going wild
Although syslog_seq and log_next_seq stuff are protected by logbuf_lock
spin log, it's not enough. Say we have two processes A and B, and let
syslog_seq = N, while log_next_seq = N + 1, and the two processes both
come to syslog_print at almost the same time. And No matter which
process get the spin lock first, it will increase syslog_seq by one,
then release spin lock; thus later, another process increase syslog_seq
by one again. In this case, syslog_seq is bigger than syslog_next_seq.
And latter, it would make:
   wait_event_interruptiable(log_wait, syslog != log_next_seq)
don't wait any more even there is no new write comes. Thus it introduce
a infinite loop reading.

I can easily see this kind of issue by the following steps:
  # cat /proc/kmsg # at meantime, I don't kill rsyslog
                   # So they are the two processes.
  # xinit          # I added drm.debug=6 in the kernel parameter line,
                   # so that it will produce lots of message and let that
                   # issue happen

It's 100% reproducable on my side. And my disk will be filled up by
/var/log/messages in a quite short time.

So, introduce a mutex_lock to stop syslog_seq from going wild just like
what devkmsg_read() does. It does fix this issue as expected.

v2: use mutex_lock_interruptiable() instead (comments from Kay)

Oleg Nesterov d436615e60 uprobes: Copy_insn() shouldn't depend on mm/vma/vaddr
1. copy_insn() doesn't need "addr", it can use uprobe->offset.
   Remove this argument.

2. Change copy_insn/__copy_insn to accept "struct file*" instead
   of vma.

copy_insn() is called only once and mm/vma/vaddr are random, it
shouldn't depend on them.

Oleg Nesterov 7a5bfb66b0 uprobes: Change build_map_info() to try kmalloc(GFP_NOWAIT) first
build_map_info() doesn't allocate the memory under i_mmap_mutex
to avoid the deadlock with page reclaim. But it can try
GFP_NOWAIT first, it should work in the likely case and thus we
almost never need the pre-alloc-and-retry path.

Oleg Nesterov 268720903f uprobes: Rework register_for_each_vma() to make it O(n)
Currently register_for_each_vma() is O(n ** 2) + O(n ** 3),
every time find_next_vma_info() "restarts" the
vma_prio_tree_foreach() loop and each iteration rechecks the
whole try_list. This also means that try_list can grow
"indefinitely" if register/unregister races with munmap/mmap
activity even if the number of mapping is bounded at any time.

With this patch register_for_each_vma() builds the list of
mm/vaddr structures only once and does install_breakpoint() for
each entry.

We do not care about the new mappings which can be created after
build_map_info() drops mapping->i_mmap_mutex, uprobe_mmap()
should do its work.

Note that we do not allocate map_info under i_mmap_mutex, this
can deadlock with page reclaim (but see the next patch). So we
use 2 lists, "curr" which we are going to return, and "prev"
which holds the already allocated memory. The main loop deques
the entry from "prev" (initially it is empty), and if "prev"
becomes empty again it counts the number of entries we need to
pre-allocate outside of i_mmap_mutex.

Oleg Nesterov c1914a0936 uprobes: Install_breakpoint() should fail if is_swbp_insn() == T
install_breakpoint() returns -EEXIST if is_swbp_insn(orig_insn)
== T, the caller treats this code as success.

This is doubly wrong. The successful return should set
UPROBE_COPY_INSN, but the real problem is that it shouldn't
succeed. If the probed insn is int3 the application should get
SIGTRAP, this won't happen with uprobe.

Probably we can fix this, we can add the UPROBE_SHARED_BP flag
and teach handle_swbp/set_orig_insn to handle this case
correctly. But this needs some complications and we have other
insns which can't be probed, lets make a simple fix for now.

I think this needs a cleanup. UPROBE_COPY_INSN should die,
copy_insn() should be called by alloc_uprobe().
arch_uprobe_analyze_insn() depends on ->mm (ia32_compat) but it
is called only once.

Oleg Nesterov 5323ce71e4 uprobes: Write_opcode()->__replace_page() can race with try_to_unmap()
write_opcode() gets old_page via get_user_pages() and then calls
__replace_page() which assumes that this old_page is still
mapped after pte_offset_map_lock().

This is not true if this old_page was already try_to_unmap()'ed,
and in this case everything __replace_page() does with old_page
is wrong. Just for example, put_page() is not balanced.

I think it is possible to teach __replace_page() to handle this
unlikely case correctly, but this patch simply changes it to use
page_check_address() and return -EAGAIN if it fails. The caller
should notice this error code and retry.

Note: write_opcode() asks for the cleanups, I'll try to do this
in a separate patch.

Provide an iterator to receive the log buffer content, and convert all
kmsg_dump() users to it.

The structured data in the kmsg buffer now contains binary data, which
should no longer be copied verbatim to the kmsg_dump() users.

The iterator should provide reliable access to the buffer data, and also
supports proper log line-aware chunking of data while iterating.

Paul Mundt 5ca4db61e8 irqdomain: Simple NUMA awareness.
While common irqdesc allocation is node aware, the irqdomain code is not.

Presently we observe a number of regressions/inconsistencies on
NUMA-capable platforms:

- Platforms using irqdomains with legacy mappings, where the
  irq_descs are allocated node-local and the irqdomain data
  structure is not.

- Drivers implementing irqdomains will lose node locality
  regardless of the underlying struct device's node id.

This plugs in NUMA node id proliferation across the various allocation
callsites by way of_node_to_nid() node lookup. While of_node_to_nid()
does the right thing for OF-capable platforms it doesn't presently handle
the non-DT case. This is trivially dealt with by simply wraping in to
numa_node_id() unconditionally.

Steven Rostedt 7374e82771 tracing: Register the ftrace internal events during early boot
All trace events including ftrace internel events (like trace_printk
and function tracing), register functions that describe how to print
their output. The events may be recorded as soon as the ring buffer
is allocated, but they are just raw binary in the buffer. The mapping
of event ids to how to print them are held within a structure that
is registered on system boot.

If a crash happens in boot up before these functions are registered
then their output (via ftrace_dump_on_oops) will be useless:

Dumping ftrace buffer:
---------------------------------
   <...>-1       0.... 319705us : Unknown type 6
---------------------------------

This can be quite frustrating for a kernel developer trying to see
what is going wrong.

There's no reason to register them so late in the boot up process.
They can be registered by early_initcall().
