Akinobu Mita 63e424c844 arch: remove CONFIG_GENERIC_FIND_{NEXT_BIT,BIT_LE,LAST_BIT}
By the previous style change, CONFIG_GENERIC_FIND_NEXT_BIT,
CONFIG_GENERIC_FIND_BIT_LE, and CONFIG_GENERIC_FIND_LAST_BIT are not used
to test for existence of find bitops anymore.

Stephen Boyd 5ca43f6c3b lib: consolidate DEBUG_STACK_USAGE option
Most arches define CONFIG_DEBUG_STACK_USAGE exactly the same way.  Move it
to lib/Kconfig.debug so each arch doesn't have to define it.  This
obviously makes the option generic, but that's fine because the config is
already used in generic code.

It's not obvious to me that sysrq-P actually does anything caution by
keeping the most inclusive wording.

Richard Weinberger b2db21997f um: fix abort
os_dump_core() uses abort() to terminate UML in case of an fatal error.

glibc's abort() calls raise(SIGABRT) which makes use of tgkill().
tgkill() has no effect within UML's kernel threads because they are not
pthreads.  As fallback abort() executes an invalid instruction to
terminate the process.  Therefore UML gets killed by SIGSEGV and leaves a
ugly log entry in the host's kernel ring buffer.

To get rid of this we use our own abort routine.

Without asm-generic/bug.h UML uses BUG() from arch/x86/ which makes use

a different stack for handling signals the call trace will be cut off.

function onto the CPU the task is actually going to run on.

In order to do so we need a generic callback from the existing scheduler IPI.

This patch introduces such a generic callback: scheduler_ipi() and
implements it as a NOP.

BenH notes: PowerPC might use this IPI on offline CPUs under rare conditions!

Tejun Heo 0415b00d17 percpu: Always align percpu output section to PAGE_SIZE
Percpu allocator honors alignment request upto PAGE_SIZE and both the
percpu addresses in the percpu address space and the translated kernel
addresses should be aligned accordingly.  The calculation of the
former depends on the alignment of percpu output section in the kernel
image.

The linker script macros PERCPU_VADDR() and PERCPU() are used to
define this output section and the latter takes @align parameter.
Several architectures are using @align smaller than PAGE_SIZE breaking
percpu memory alignment.

This patch removes @align parameter from PERCPU(), renames it to
PERCPU_SECTION() and makes it always align to PAGE_SIZE.  While at it,
add PCPU_SETUP_BUG_ON() checks such that alignment problems are
reliably detected and remove percpu alignment comment recently added
in workqueue.c as the condition would trigger BUG way before reaching
there.

For um, this patch raises the alignment of percpu area.  As the area
is in .init, there shouldn't be any noticeable difference.

This problem was discovered by David Howells while debugging boot
failure on mn10300.

Paul Pluzhnikov 13e165baf6 uml: kernels on {i386,x86_64} produce bad coredumps
One of our users reported that when a user-level program SIGSEGVs under
UML kernel, the resulting core dump is not very usable.

I have reproduced that with the latest kernel:

  make ARCH=um defconfig; make ARCH=um

Run the resulting kernel, then "inside" run this program:

#include <pthread.h>

void *fn(void *p)
{
 abort();
}

int main()
{
 pthread_t tid;
 pthread_create(&tid, 0, fn, 0);
 pthread_join(tid, 0);
 return 0;
}

Analyze the coredump with GDB. Here is what you'll see:

sudo gdb -q -ex 'set solib-absolute-prefix ../root_fs' -ex 'file ../root_fs/var/tmp/mt-abort' -ex 'core ../root_fs/var/tmp/core.762'

Examining the core shows that NT_PRSTATUS notes for all threads other than
the one that crashed are zeroed out.

I believe this is happening because neither ELF_CORE_COPY_TASK_REGS nor
task_pt_regs are defined under ARCH=um, and so elf_core_copy_task_regs()
becomes a no-op.

Attached patch fixes this for SUBARCH={x86_64,i386}.

Eric Dumazet 504f52b543 mm: NUMA aware alloc_task_struct_node()
All kthreads being created from a single helper task, they all use memory
from a single node for their kernel stack and task struct.

This patch suite creates kthread_create_on_cpu(), adding a 'cpu' parameter
to parameters already used by kthread_create().

This parameter serves in allocating memory for the new kthread on its
memory node if available.

Users of this new function are : ksoftirqd, kworker, migration, pktgend...

This patch:

Add a node parameter to alloc_task_struct(), and change its name to
alloc_task_struct_node()

This change is needed to allow NUMA aware kthread_create_on_cpu()

Al Viro 73d049a40f open-style analog of vfs_path_lookup()
new function: file_open_root(dentry, mnt, name, flags) opens the file
vfs_path_lookup would arrive to.

Note that name can be empty; in that case the usual requirement that
dentry should be a directory is lifted.

open-coded equivalents switched to it, may_open() got down exactly
one caller and became static.

arch/um/Kconfig.x86 has X86_32 but not X86_64 - that's resulting in
asm/dwarf2.h producing the 32-bit (pushl_cfi & Co) macros instead of
