allow_signal() does sigdelset(current->blocked) due to historic reason,
previously it could be called by a daemonize()'ed kthread, and
daemonize() played with current->blocked.
Now that daemonize() has gone away we can remove sigdelset() and
recalc_sigpending(). If a user really wants to unblock a signal, it
must use sigprocmask() or set_current_block() explicitely.

Move the declaration/definition of allow_signal/disallow_signal to
signal.h/signal.c. The new place is more logical and allows to use the
static helpers in signal.c (see the next changes).
While at it, make them return void and remove the valid_signal() check.
Nobody checks the returned value, and in-kernel users must not pass the
wrong signal number.

The usage of "task_struct *t" and "current" in do_sigaction() looks really

but not consistently, then it is reused as a loop variable and we have to
use "current" again.

When tracing a process in another pid namespace, it's important for fork
event messages to contain the child's pid as seen from the tracer's pid
namespace, not the parent's. Otherwise, the tracer won't be able to
correlate the fork event with later SIGTRAP signals it receives from the
child.
We still risk a race condition if a ptracer from a different pid
namespace attaches after we compute the pid_t value. However, sending a
bogus fork event message in this unlikely scenario is still a vast
improvement over the status quo where we always send bogus fork event
messages to debuggers in a different pid namespace than the forking
process.

becoming rather unmaintainable through all the additions that others
have done over time. This turns it into a much nicer structure, and
implements a few performance improvements as well.
- Clean up some of the CP15 control register tweaks for alignment
support, moving some code and data into alignment.c
- DMA properties for ARM, from Santosh and reviewed by DT people. This
adds DT properties to specify bus translations we can't discover
automatically, and to indicate whether devices are coherent.
- Hibernation support for ARM
- Make ftrace work with read-only text in modules
- add suspend support for PJ4B CPUs
- rework interrupt masking for undefined instruction handling, which
allows us to enable interrupts earlier in the handling of these
exceptions.
- support for big endian page tables
- fix stacktrace support to exclude stacktrace functions from the
trace, and add save_stack_trace_regs() implementation so that kprobes
can record stack traces.
- Add support for the Cortex-A17 CPU.
- Remove last vestiges of ARM710 support.
- Removal of ARM "meminfo" structure, finally converting us solely to
memblock to handle the early memory initialisation.

If the log ring buffer becomes full, we silently overwrite old messages
with new data. console_unlock will detect this case and fast-forward the
console_* pointers to skip over the corrupted data, but nothing will be
reported to the user.
This patch hijacks the first valid log message after detecting that we
dropped messages and prefixes it with a note detailing how many messages
were dropped. For long (~1000 char) messages, this will result in some
truncation of the real message, but given that we're dropping things
anyway, that doesn't seem to be the end of the world.

Jiri Bohac pointed out that there are rare but potential deadlock
possibilities when calling printk while holding the timekeeping
seqlock.
This is due to printk() triggering console sem wakeup, which can
cause scheduling code to trigger hrtimers which may try to read
the time.
Specifically, as Jiri pointed out, that path is:
printk
vprintk_emit
console_unlock
up(&console_sem)
__up
wake_up_process
try_to_wake_up
ttwu_do_activate
ttwu_activate
activate_task
enqueue_task
enqueue_task_fair
hrtick_update
hrtick_start_fair
hrtick_start_fair
get_time
ktime_get
--> endless loop on
read_seqcount_retry(&timekeeper_seq, ...)
This patch tries to avoid this issue by using printk_deferred (previously
named printk_sched) which should defer printing via a irq_work_queue.

To prevent deadlocks with doing a printk inside the scheduler,
printk_sched() was created. The issue is that printk has a console_sem
that it can grab and release. The release does a wake up if there's a
task pending on the sem, and this wake up grabs the rq locks that is
held in the scheduler. This leads to a possible deadlock if the wake up
uses the same rq as the one with the rq lock held already.
What printk_sched() does is to save the printk write in a per cpu buffer
and sets the PRINTK_PENDING_SCHED flag. On a timer tick, if this flag is
set, the printk() is done against the buffer.
There's a couple of issues with this approach.
1) If two printk_sched()s are called before the tick, the second one
will overwrite the first one.
2) The temporary buffer is 512 bytes and is per cpu. This is a quite a
bit of space wasted for something that is seldom used.
In order to remove this, the printk_sched() can use the printk buffer
instead, and delay the console_trylock()/console_unlock() to the queued
work.
Because printk_sched() would then be taking the logbuf_lock, the
logbuf_lock must not be held while doing anything that may call into the
scheduler functions, which includes wake ups. Unfortunately, printk()
also has a console_sem that it uses, and on release, the up(&console_sem)
may do a wake up of any pending waiters. This must be avoided while
holding the logbuf_lock.

We need interrupts disabled when calling console_trylock_for_printk()
only so that cpu id we pass to can_use_console() remains valid (for
other things console_sem provides all the exclusion we need and
deadlocks on console_sem due to interrupts are impossible because we use
down_trylock()). However if we are rescheduled, we are guaranteed to
run on an online cpu so we can easily just get the cpu id in
can_use_console().
We can lose a bit of performance when we enable interrupts in
vprintk_emit() and then disable them again in console_unlock() but OTOH
it can somewhat reduce interrupt latency caused by console_unlock()
especially since later in the patch series we will want to spin on
console_sem in console_trylock_for_printk().

There's no reason to hold lockbuf_lock when entering
console_trylock_for_printk().
The first thing this function does is to call down_trylock(console_sem)
and if that fails it immediately unlocks lockbuf_lock. So lockbuf_lock
isn't needed for that branch. When down_trylock() succeeds, the rest of
console_trylock() is OK without lockbuf_lock (it is called without it
from other places), and the only remaining thing in
console_trylock_for_printk() is can_use_console() call. For that call
console_sem is enough (it iterates all consoles and checks CON_ANYTIME
flag).
So we drop logbuf_lock before entering console_trylock_for_printk() which
simplifies the code.

Comment about interesting interlocking between lockbuf_lock and

It was added in 2002 by commit a880f45a48be during conversion of
console_lock to console_sem + lockbuf_lock.
At that time release_console_sem() (today's equivalent is
console_unlock()) was indeed using lockbuf_lock to avoid races between
trylock on console_sem in printk() and unlock of console_sem. However
these days the interlocking is gone and the races are avoided by
rechecking logbuf state after releasing console_sem.

I wonder if anyone uses printk return value but it is there and should be
counted correctly.
This patch modifies log_store() to return the number of really stored
bytes from the 'text' part. Also it handles the return value in
vprintk_emit().
Note that log_store() is used also in cont_flush() but we could ignore the
return value there. The function works with characters that were already
counted earlier. In addition, the store could newer fail here because the
length of the printed text is limited by the "cont" buffer and "dict" is
NULL.

We might want to print at least part of too long messages and add some
warning for debugging purpose.
The question is how long the shrunken message should be. If we use the
whole buffer, it might get rotated too soon. Let's try to use only 1/4 of
the buffer for now.
Also shrink the whole dictionary. We do not want to parse it or break it
in the middle of some pair of values. It would not cause any real harm
but still.

There was no check for too long messages. The check for free space always
passed when first_seq and next_seq were equal. Enough free space was not
guaranteed, though.
log_store() might be called to store messages up to 64kB + 64kB + 16B.
This is sum of maximal text_len, dict_len values, and the size of the
structure printk_log.
On the other hand, the minimal size for the main log buffer currently is
4kB and it is enforced only by Kconfig.
The good news is that the usage looks safe right now. log_store() is
called only from vprintk_emit() and cont_flush(). Here the "text" part is
always passed via a static buffer and the length is limited to
LOG_LINE_MAX which is 1024. The "dict" part is NULL in most cases. The
only exceptions is when vprintk_emit() is called from printk_emit() and
dev_vprintk_emit(). But printk_emit() is currently used only in
devkmsg_writev() and here "dict" is NULL as well. In dev_vprintk_emit(),
"dict" is limited by the static buffer "hdr" of the size 128 bytes. It
meas that the current maximal printed text is 1024B + 128B + 16B and it
always fit the log buffer.
But it is only matter of time when someone calls printk_emit() with unsafe
parameters, especially the "dict" one.
This patch adds a check for the free space when the buffer is empty. It
reuses the already existing log_has_space() function but it has to add an
extra parameter. It defines whether the buffer is empty. Note that the
same values of "first_idx" and "next_idx" might also mean that the buffer
is full.
If the buffer is empty, we must respect the current position of the
indexes. We cannot reset them to the beginning of the buffer. Otherwise,
the functions reading the buffer would get crazy.
The question is what to do when the message is too long. This patch uses
the easiest solution and just ignores the problematic message. Let's do
something better in a followup patch.

The check for free space in the log buffer always passes when "first_seq"
and "next_seq" are equal. In theory, it might cause writing outside of
the log buffer.
Fortunately, the current usage looks safe because the used "text" and
"dict" buffers are quite limited. See the second patch for more details.
Anyway, it is better to be on the safe side and add a check. An easy
solution is done in the 2nd patch and it is improved in the 4th patch.
5th patch fixes the computation of the printed message length.
1st and 3rd patches just do some code refactoring to make the other
patches easier.
This patch (of 5):
There will be needed some fixes in the check for free space. They will be
easier if the code is moved outside of the quite long log_store()
function.

"Search through everything else" in mm_update_next_owner() can hit a
kthread which adopted this "mm" via use_mm(), it should not be used as
mm->owner. Add the PF_KTHREAD check.
While at it, change this code to use for_each_process_thread() instead
of deprecated do_each_thread/while_each_thread.

CONFIG_MM_OWNER makes no sense. It is not user-selectable, it is only
selected by CONFIG_MEMCG automatically. So we can kill this option in
init/Kconfig and do s/CONFIG_MM_OWNER/CONFIG_MEMCG/ globally.

Currently to allocate a page that should be charged to kmemcg (e.g.
threadinfo), we pass __GFP_KMEMCG flag to the page allocator. The page
allocated is then to be freed by free_memcg_kmem_pages. Apart from
looking asymmetrical, this also requires intrusion to the general
allocation path. So let's introduce separate functions that will
alloc/free pages charged to kmemcg.
The new functions are called alloc_kmem_pages and free_kmem_pages. They
should be used when the caller actually would like to use kmalloc, but
has to fall back to the page allocator for the allocation is large.
They only differ from alloc_pages and free_pages in that besides
allocating or freeing pages they also charge them to the kmem resource
counter of the current memory cgroup.

Commit 786235eeba ("kthread: make kthread_create() killable") meant
for allowing kthread_create() to abort as soon as killed by the
OOM-killer. But returning -ENOMEM is wrong if killed by SIGKILL from
userspace. Change kthread_create() to return -EINTR upon SIGKILL.

interface along with its even more horrible variants. That also
gets rid of the last leftovers of the initial sparse irq hackery.
arch/driver specific changes have been either acked or ignored.
- A fix for the spurious interrupt detection logic with threaded
interrupts.
