Michael Holzheu d57af9b214 taskstats: use real microsecond granularity for CPU times
The taskstats interface uses microsecond granularity for the user and
system time values.  The conversion from cputime to the taskstats values
uses the cputime_to_msecs primitive which effectively limits the
granularity to milliseconds.  Add the cputime_to_usecs primitive for
architectures that have better, more precise CPU time values.  Remove
cputime_to_msecs primitive because there are no more users left.

Jeff Mahoney 8589312069 delayacct: align to 8 byte boundary on 64-bit systems
prepare_reply() sets up an skb for the response.  The payload contains:

 +--------------------------------+
 | genlmsghdr - 4 bytes           |
 +--------------------------------+
 | NLA header - 4 bytes           | /* Aggregate header */
 +-+------------------------------+
 | | NLA header - 4 bytes         | /* PID header */
 | +------------------------------+
 | | pid/tgid   - 4 bytes         |
 | +------------------------------+
 | | NLA header - 4 bytes         | /* stats header */
 | + -----------------------------+ <- oops. aligned on 4 byte boundary
 | | struct taskstats - 328 bytes |
 +-+------------------------------+

The start of the taskstats struct must be 8 byte aligned on IA64 (and
other systems with 8 byte alignment rules for 64-bit types) or runtime
alignment warnings will be issued.

This patch pads the pid/tgid field out to sizeof(long), which forces the
alignment of taskstats.  The getdelays userspace code is ok with this
since it assumes 32-bit pid/tgid and then honors that header's length
field.

An array is used to avoid exposing kernel memory contents to userspace in
the response.

KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki 478735e388 /proc/stat: fix scalability of irq sum of all cpu
In /proc/stat, the number of per-IRQ event is shown by making a sum each
irq's events on all cpus.  But we can make use of kstat_irqs().

kstat_irqs() do the same calculation, If !CONFIG_GENERIC_HARDIRQ,
it's not a big cost. (Both of the number of cpus and irqs are small.)

If a system is very big and CONFIG_GENERIC_HARDIRQ, it does

	for_each_irq()
		for_each_cpu()
			- look up a radix tree
			- read desc->irq_stat[cpu]
This seems not efficient. This patch adds kstat_irqs() for
CONFIG_GENRIC_HARDIRQ and change the calculation as

	for_each_irq()
		look up radix tree
		for_each_cpu()
			- read desc->irq_stat[cpu]

This reduces cost.

Since userspace API of ptrace syscall defines @addr and @data as void
pointers, it would be more appropriate to define them as unsigned long in
kernel.  Therefore related functions are changed also.

'unsigned long' is typically used in other places in kernel as an opaque
data type and that using this helps cleaning up a lot of warnings from
sparse.

Daniel Lezcano 32a8cf235e cgroup: make the mount options parsing more accurate
Current behavior:
=================

(1) When we mount a cgroup, we can specify the 'all' option which
    means to enable all the cgroup subsystems.  This is the default option
    when no option is specified.

(2) If we want to mount a cgroup with a subset of the supported cgroup
    subsystems, we have to specify a subsystems name list for the mount
    option.

(3) If we specify another option like 'noprefix' or 'release_agent',
    the actual code wants the 'all' or a subsystem name option specified
    also.  Not critical but a bit not friendly as we should assume (1) in
    this case.

(4) Logically, the 'all' option is mutually exclusive with a subsystem
    name, but this is not detected.

In other words:
 succeed : mount -t cgroup -o all,freezer cgroup /cgroup
	=> is it 'all' or 'freezer' ?
 fails : mount -t cgroup -o noprefix cgroup /cgroup
	=> succeed if we do '-o noprefix,all'

The following patches consolidate a bit the mount options check.

New behavior:
=============

(1) untouched
(2) untouched
(3) the 'all' option will be by default when specifying other than
    a subsystem name option
(4) raises an error

In other words:
 fails   : mount -t cgroup -o all,freezer cgroup /cgroup
 succeed : mount -t cgroup -o noprefix cgroup /cgroup

For the sake of lisibility, the if ... then ... else ... if ...
indentation when parsing the options has been changed to:
if ... then
	...
	continue

Daniel Lezcano 97978e6d1f cgroup: add clone_children control file
The ns_cgroup is a control group interacting with the namespaces.  When a
new namespace is created, a corresponding cgroup is automatically created
too.  The cgroup name is the pid of the process who did 'unshare' or the
child of 'clone'.

This cgroup is tied with the namespace because it prevents a process to
escape the control group and use the post_clone callback, so the child
cgroup inherits the values of the parent cgroup.

Unfortunately, the more we use this cgroup and the more we are facing
problems with it:

(1) when a process unshares, the cgroup name may conflict with a
    previous cgroup with the same pid, so unshare or clone return -EEXIST

(2) the cgroup creation is out of control because there may have an
    application creating several namespaces where the system will
    automatically create several cgroups in his back and let them on the
    cgroupfs (eg.  a vrf based on the network namespace).

(3) the mix of (1) and (2) force an administrator to regularly check
    and clean these cgroups.

This patchset removes the ns_cgroup by adding a new flag to the cgroup and
the cgroupfs mount option.  It enables the copy of the parent cgroup when
a child cgroup is created.  We can then safely remove the ns_cgroup as
this flag brings a compatibility.  We have now to manually create and add
the task to a cgroup, which is consistent with the cgroup framework.

This patch:

Sent as an answer to a previous thread around the ns_cgroup.

https://lists.linux-foundation.org/pipermail/containers/2009-June/018627.html

It adds a control file 'clone_children' for a cgroup.  This control file
is a boolean specifying if the child cgroup should be a clone of the
parent cgroup or not.  The default value is 'false'.

This flag makes the child cgroup to call the post_clone callback of all
the subsystem, if it is available.

At present, the cpuset is the only one which had implemented the
post_clone callback.

The option can be set at mount time by specifying the 'clone_children'
mount option.

Tomasz Buchert 2d3cbf8bc8 cgroup_freezer: update_freezer_state() does incorrect state transitions
There are 4 state transitions possible for a freezer.  Only FREEZING ->
FROZEN transaction is done lazily.  This patch allows update_freezer_state
only to perform this transaction and renames the function to
update_if_frozen.

Moreover is_task_frozen_enough function is removed and its every occurence
is replaced with frozen().  Therefore for a group to become FROZEN every
task must be frozen.

The previous version could trigger a following bug: When cgroup is in the
process of freezing (but none of its tasks are frozen yet),
update_freezer_state() (called from freezer_read or freezer_write) would
incorrectly report that a group is 'THAWED' (because nfrozen = 0),
allowing the transaction FREEZING -> THAWED without writing anything to
'freezer.state'.  This is incorrect according to the documentation.  This
could result in a 'THAWED' cgroup with frozen tasks inside.

A code to reproduce this bug is available here:
http://pentium.hopto.org/~thinred/repos/linux-misc/freezer_bug2.c

Tomasz Buchert 0bdba580ab cgroup_freezer: fix can_attach() to prohibit moving from/to freezing/frozen cgroups
It is possible to move a task from its cgroup even if this group is
'FREEZING'.  This results in a nasty bug - the moved task will become
frozen OUTSIDE its original cgroup and will remain in a permanent 'D'
state.

This patch allows to migrate the task only between THAWED cgroups.

This behavior was observed and easily reproduced on a single core laptop.
Notice that reproducibility depends highly on the machine used.  Program

Eric Dumazet 518de9b39e fs: allow for more than 2^31 files
Robin Holt tried to boot a 16TB system and found af_unix was overflowing
a 32bit value :

<quote>

We were seeing a failure which prevented boot.  The kernel was incapable
of creating either a named pipe or unix domain socket.  This comes down
to a common kernel function called unix_create1() which does:

        atomic_inc(&unix_nr_socks);
        if (atomic_read(&unix_nr_socks) > 2 * get_max_files())
                goto out;

The function get_max_files() is a simple return of files_stat.max_files.
files_stat.max_files is a signed integer and is computed in
fs/file_table.c's files_init().

        n = (mempages * (PAGE_SIZE / 1024)) / 10;
        files_stat.max_files = n;

In our case, mempages (total_ram_pages) is approx 3,758,096,384
(0xe0000000).  That leaves max_files at approximately 1,503,238,553.
This causes 2 * get_max_files() to integer overflow.

</quote>

Fix is to let /proc/sys/fs/file-nr & /proc/sys/fs/file-max use long
integers, and change af_unix to use an atomic_long_t instead of atomic_t.

get_max_files() is changed to return an unsigned long.  get_nr_files() is
changed to return a long.

unix_nr_socks is changed from atomic_t to atomic_long_t, while not
strictly needed to address Robin problem.

Before patch (on a 64bit kernel) :
# echo 2147483648 >/proc/sys/fs/file-max
# cat /proc/sys/fs/file-max
-18446744071562067968

After patch:
# echo 2147483648 >/proc/sys/fs/file-max
# cat /proc/sys/fs/file-max
2147483648

Ying Han 3d5992d2ac oom: add per-mm oom disable count
It's pointless to kill a task if another thread sharing its mm cannot be
killed to allow future memory freeing.  A subsequent patch will prevent
kills in such cases, but first it's necessary to have a way to flag a task
that shares memory with an OOM_DISABLE task that doesn't incur an
additional tasklist scan, which would make select_bad_process() an O(n^2)
function.

This patch adds an atomic counter to struct mm_struct that follows how
many threads attached to it have an oom_score_adj of OOM_SCORE_ADJ_MIN.
They cannot be killed by the kernel, so their memory cannot be freed in
oom conditions.

This only requires task_lock() on the task that we're operating on, it
does not require mm->mmap_sem since task_lock() pins the mm and the
operation is atomic.

Bjorn Helgaas e7f8567db9 resources: support allocating space within a region from the top down
Allocate space from the top of a region first, then work downward,
if an architecture desires this.

When we allocate space from a resource, we look for gaps between children
of the resource.  Previously, we always looked at gaps from the bottom up.
For example, given this:

    [mem 0xbff00000-0xf7ffffff] PCI Bus 0000:00
      [mem 0xbff00000-0xbfffffff] gap -- available
      [mem 0xc0000000-0xdfffffff] PCI Bus 0000:02
      [mem 0xe0000000-0xf7ffffff] gap -- available

we attempted to allocate from the [mem 0xbff00000-0xbfffffff] gap first,
then the [mem 0xe0000000-0xf7ffffff] gap.

With this patch an architecture can choose to allocate from the top gap
[mem 0xe0000000-0xf7ffffff] first.

We can't do this across the board because iomem_resource.end is initialized
to 0xffffffff_ffffffff on 64-bit architectures, and most machines can't
address the entire 64-bit physical address space.  Therefore, we only
allocate top-down if the arch requests it by clearing
"resource_alloc_from_bottom".

Bjorn Helgaas a1862e3107 resources: handle overflow when aligning start of available area
If tmp.start is near ~0, ALIGN(tmp.start) may overflow, which would
make us think there's more available space than there really is.  We
would likely return something that conflicts with a previous resource,
which would cause a failure when allocate_resource() requests the newly-
allocated region.

The alignment callback returns a proposed location, which may have been
adjusted to avoid ISA aliases or for other architecture-specific reasons.

We already had a check ("tmp.start < tmp.end") to make sure the callback
doesn't return an area that extends past the available area.  This patch
reworks the check to make sure it doesn't return an area that extends
either below or above the available area.

For now callers that need it is estimated conservatively, that is

any inode number given that they aren't user visible, and for others
it could be done lazily when an inode number is actually needed,
