Simon Horman 85a0ee342e kdump: add is_vmcore_usable() and vmcore_unusable()
The usage of elfcorehdr_addr has changed recently such that being set to
ELFCORE_ADDR_MAX is used by is_kdump_kernel() to indicate if the code is
executing in a kernel executed as a crash kernel.

However, arch/ia64/kernel/setup.c:reserve_elfcorehdr will rest
elfcorehdr_addr to ELFCORE_ADDR_MAX on error, which means any subsequent
calls to is_kdump_kernel() will return 0, even though they should return
1.

Ok, at this point in time there are no subsequent calls, but I think its
fair to say that there is ample scope for error or at the very least
confusion.

This patch add an extra state, ELFCORE_ADDR_ERR, which indicates that
elfcorehdr_addr was passed on the command line, and thus execution is
taking place in a crashdump kernel, but vmcore can't be used for some
reason.  This is tested for using is_vmcore_usable() and set using
vmcore_unusable().  A subsequent patch makes use of this new code.

To summarise, the states that elfcorehdr_addr can now be in are as follows:

ELFCORE_ADDR_MAX: not a crashdump kernel
ELFCORE_ADDR_ERR: crashdump kernel but vmcore is unusable
any other value:  crash dump kernel and vmcore is usable

Vivek Goyal 57cac4d188 kdump: make elfcorehdr_addr independent of CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE
o elfcorehdr_addr is used by not only the code under CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE
  but also by the code which is not inside CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE.  For
  example, is_kdump_kernel() is used by powerpc code to determine if
  kernel is booting after a panic then use previous kernel's TCE table.
  So even if CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE is not set in second kernel, one should be
  able to correctly determine that we are booting after a panic and setup
  calgary iommu accordingly.

o So remove the assumption that elfcorehdr_addr is under
  CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE.

o Move definition of elfcorehdr_addr to arch dependent crash files.
  (Unfortunately crash dump does not have an arch independent file
  otherwise that would have been the best place).

o kexec.c is not the right place as one can Have CRASH_DUMP enabled in
  second kernel without KEXEC being enabled.

o I don't see sh setup code parsing the command line for
  elfcorehdr_addr.  I am wondering how does vmcore interface work on sh.
  Anyway, I am atleast defining elfcoredhr_addr so that compilation is not
  broken on sh.

Rik van Riel 4f98a2fee8 vmscan: split LRU lists into anon & file sets
Split the LRU lists in two, one set for pages that are backed by real file
systems ("file") and one for pages that are backed by memory and swap
("anon").  The latter includes tmpfs.

The advantage of doing this is that the VM will not have to scan over lots
of anonymous pages (which we generally do not want to swap out), just to
find the page cache pages that it should evict.

This patch has the infrastructure and a basic policy to balance how much
we scan the anon lists and how much we scan the file lists.  The big
policy changes are in separate patches.

without such redundant protection.)

Other subsystem may put lock_task_sighand() into rcu_read_lock()

"for_each_process()", "find_task_by_vpid()" etc. , not for protecting

Frank Mayhar f06febc96b timers: fix itimer/many thread hang
Overview

This patch reworks the handling of POSIX CPU timers, including the
ITIMER_PROF, ITIMER_VIRT timers and rlimit handling.  It was put together
with the help of Roland McGrath, the owner and original writer of this code.

The problem we ran into, and the reason for this rework, has to do with using
a profiling timer in a process with a large number of threads.  It appears
that the performance of the old implementation of run_posix_cpu_timers() was
at least O(n*3) (where "n" is the number of threads in a process) or worse.
Everything is fine with an increasing number of threads until the time taken
for that routine to run becomes the same as or greater than the tick time, at
which point things degrade rather quickly.

This patch fixes bug 9906, "Weird hang with NPTL and SIGPROF."

Code Changes

This rework corrects the implementation of run_posix_cpu_timers() to make it
run in constant time for a particular machine.  (Performance may vary between
one machine and another depending upon whether the kernel is built as single-
or multiprocessor and, in the latter case, depending upon the number of
running processors.)  To do this, at each tick we now update fields in
signal_struct as well as task_struct.  The run_posix_cpu_timers() function
uses those fields to make its decisions.

We define a new structure, "task_cputime," to contain user, system and
scheduler times and use these in appropriate places:

struct task_cputime {
	cputime_t utime;
	cputime_t stime;
	unsigned long long sum_exec_runtime;
};

This is included in the structure "thread_group_cputime," which is a new
substructure of signal_struct and which varies for uniprocessor versus
multiprocessor kernels.  For uniprocessor kernels, it uses "task_cputime" as
a simple substructure, while for multiprocessor kernels it is a pointer:

struct thread_group_cputime {
	struct task_cputime totals;
};

struct thread_group_cputime {
	struct task_cputime *totals;
};

We also add a new task_cputime substructure directly to signal_struct, to
cache the earliest expiration of process-wide timers, and task_cputime also
replaces the it_*_expires fields of task_struct (used for earliest expiration
of thread timers).  The "thread_group_cputime" structure contains process-wide
timers that are updated via account_user_time() and friends.  In the non-SMP
case the structure is a simple aggregator; unfortunately in the SMP case that
simplicity was not achievable due to cache-line contention between CPUs (in
one measured case performance was actually _worse_ on a 16-cpu system than
the same test on a 4-cpu system, due to this contention).  For SMP, the
thread_group_cputime counters are maintained as a per-cpu structure allocated
using alloc_percpu().  The timer functions update only the timer field in
the structure corresponding to the running CPU, obtained using per_cpu_ptr().

We define a set of inline functions in sched.h that we use to maintain the
thread_group_cputime structure and hide the differences between UP and SMP
implementations from the rest of the kernel.  The thread_group_cputime_init()
function initializes the thread_group_cputime structure for the given task.
The thread_group_cputime_alloc() is a no-op for UP; for SMP it calls the
out-of-line function thread_group_cputime_alloc_smp() to allocate and fill
in the per-cpu structures and fields.  The thread_group_cputime_free()
function, also a no-op for UP, in SMP frees the per-cpu structures.  The
thread_group_cputime_clone_thread() function (also a UP no-op) for SMP calls
thread_group_cputime_alloc() if the per-cpu structures haven't yet been
allocated.  The thread_group_cputime() function fills the task_cputime
structure it is passed with the contents of the thread_group_cputime fields;
in UP it's that simple but in SMP it must also safely check that tsk->signal
is non-NULL (if it is it just uses the appropriate fields of task_struct) and,
if so, sums the per-cpu values for each online CPU.  Finally, the three
functions account_group_user_time(), account_group_system_time() and
account_group_exec_runtime() are used by timer functions to update the
respective fields of the thread_group_cputime structure.

Non-SMP operation is trivial and will not be mentioned further.

The per-cpu structure is always allocated when a task creates its first new
thread, via a call to thread_group_cputime_clone_thread() from copy_signal().
It is freed at process exit via a call to thread_group_cputime_free() from
cleanup_signal().

All functions that formerly summed utime/stime/sum_sched_runtime values from
from all threads in the thread group now use thread_group_cputime() to
snapshot the values in the thread_group_cputime structure or the values in
the task structure itself if the per-cpu structure hasn't been allocated.

Finally, the code in kernel/posix-cpu-timers.c has changed quite a bit.
The run_posix_cpu_timers() function has been split into a fast path and a
slow path; the former safely checks whether there are any expired thread
timers and, if not, just returns, while the slow path does the heavy lifting.
With the dedicated thread group fields, timers are no longer "rebalanced" and
the process_timer_rebalance() function and related code has gone away.  All
summing loops are gone and all code that used them now uses the
thread_group_cputime() inline.  When process-wide timers are set, the new
task_cputime structure in signal_struct is used to cache the earliest
expiration; this is checked in the fast path.

Performance

The fix appears not to add significant overhead to existing operations.  It
generally performs the same as the current code except in two cases, one in
which it performs slightly worse (Case 5 below) and one in which it performs
very significantly better (Case 2 below).  Overall it's a wash except in those
two cases.

I've since done somewhat more involved testing on a dual-core Opteron system.

Case 1: With no itimer running, for a test with 100,000 threads, the fixed
	kernel took 1428.5 seconds, 513 seconds more than the unfixed system,
	all of which was spent in the system.  There were twice as many
	voluntary context switches with the fix as without it.

Case 2: With an itimer running at .01 second ticks and 4000 threads (the most
	an unmodified kernel can handle), the fixed kernel ran the test in
	eight percent of the time (5.8 seconds as opposed to 70 seconds) and
	had better tick accuracy (.012 seconds per tick as opposed to .023
	seconds per tick).

Case 3: A 4000-thread test with an initial timer tick of .01 second and an
	interval of 10,000 seconds (i.e. a timer that ticks only once) had
	very nearly the same performance in both cases:  6.3 seconds elapsed
	for the fixed kernel versus 5.5 seconds for the unfixed kernel.

With fewer threads (eight in these tests), the Case 1 test ran in essentially
the same time on both the modified and unmodified kernels (5.2 seconds versus
5.8 seconds).  The Case 2 test ran in about the same time as well, 5.9 seconds
versus 5.4 seconds but again with much better tick accuracy, .013 seconds per
tick versus .025 seconds per tick for the unmodified kernel.

Since the fix affected the rlimit code, I also tested soft and hard CPU limits.

Case 4: With a hard CPU limit of 20 seconds and eight threads (and an itimer
	running), the modified kernel was very slightly favored in that while
	it killed the process in 19.997 seconds of CPU time (5.002 seconds of
	wall time), only .003 seconds of that was system time, the rest was
	user time.  The unmodified kernel killed the process in 20.001 seconds
	of CPU (5.014 seconds of wall time) of which .016 seconds was system
	time.  Really, though, the results were too close to call.  The results
	were essentially the same with no itimer running.

Case 5: With a soft limit of 20 seconds and a hard limit of 2000 seconds
	(where the hard limit would never be reached) and an itimer running,
	the modified kernel exhibited worse tick accuracy than the unmodified
	kernel: .050 seconds/tick versus .028 seconds/tick.  Otherwise,
	performance was almost indistinguishable.  With no itimer running this
	test exhibited virtually identical behavior and times in both cases.

In times past I did some limited performance testing.  those results are below.

On a four-cpu Opteron system without this fix, a sixteen-thread test executed
in 3569.991 seconds, of which user was 3568.435s and system was 1.556s.  On
the same system with the fix, user and elapsed time were about the same, but
system time dropped to 0.007 seconds.  Performance with eight, four and one
thread were comparable.  Interestingly, the timer ticks with the fix seemed
more accurate:  The sixteen-thread test with the fix received 149543 ticks
for 0.024 seconds per tick, while the same test without the fix received 58720
for 0.061 seconds per tick.  Both cases were configured for an interval of
0.01 seconds.  Again, the other tests were comparable.  Each thread in this
test computed the primes up to 25,000,000.

I also did a test with a large number of threads, 100,000 threads, which is
impossible without the fix.  In this case each thread computed the primes only
up to 10,000 (to make the runtime manageable).  System time dominated, at
1546.968 seconds out of a total 2176.906 seconds (giving a user time of
629.938s).  It received 147651 ticks for 0.015 seconds per tick, still quite
accurate.  There is obviously no comparable test without the fix.

Hugh Dickins d7a3e4959c mm: ifdef Quicklists in /proc/meminfo
A "Quicklists:          0 kB" line has just started appearing in
/proc/meminfo, but most architectures (including x86) don't have
them configured, so #ifdef it, like the highmem lines.

And those architectures which do have quicklists configured are
using them for page tables: so let's place it next to PageTables.

Balbir Singh 49048622ea sched: fix process time monotonicity
Spencer reported a problem where utime and stime were going negative despite
the fixes in commit b27f03d4bd. The suspected
reason for the problem is that signal_struct maintains it's own utime and
stime (of exited tasks), these are not updated using the new task_utime()
routine, hence sig->utime can go backwards and cause the same problem
to occur (sig->utime, adds tsk->utime and not task_utime()). This patch
fixes the problem

TODO: using max(task->prev_utime, derived utime) works for now, but a more
generic solution is to implement cputime_max() and use the cputime_gt()
function for comparison.

Alexey Dobriyan 67935df49d [PATCH 1/2] proc: fix inode number bogorithmetic
Id which proc gets from IDR for inode number and id which proc removes
from IDR do not match. E.g. 0x11a transforms into 0x8000011a.

Which stayed unnoticed for a long time because, surprise, idr_remove()
masks out that high bit before doing anything.

All of this due to "| ~MAX_ID_MASK" in release_inode_number().

I still don't understand how it's supposed to work, because "| ~MASK"
is not an inversion for "& MAX" operation.

So, use just one nice, working addition. Make start offset unsigned int,
while I'm at it. It's longness is not used anywhere.

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.

Eric Dumazet a47a126ad5 vmallocinfo: add NUMA information
Christoph recently added /proc/vmallocinfo file to get information about
vmalloc allocations.

This patch adds NUMA specific information, giving number of pages
allocated on each memory node.

This should help to check that vmalloc() is able to respect NUMA policies.

Example of output on a four nodes machine (one cpu per node)

1) network hash tables are evenly spreaded on four nodes (OK) (Same
   point for inodes and dentries hash tables)

2) iptables tables (x_tables) are correctly allocated on each cpu node
   (OK).

3) sys_swapon() allocates its memory from one node only.

4) each loaded module is using memory on one node.

Sysadmins could tune their setup to change points 3) and 4) if necessary.

Stephen Smalley 006ebb40d3 Security: split proc ptrace checking into read vs. attach
Enable security modules to distinguish reading of process state via
proc from full ptrace access by renaming ptrace_may_attach to
ptrace_may_access and adding a mode argument indicating whether only
read access or full attach access is requested.  This allows security
modules to permit access to reading process state without granting
full ptrace access.  The base DAC/capability checking remains unchanged.

Read access to /proc/pid/mem continues to apply a full ptrace attach
check since check_mem_permission() already requires the current task
to already be ptracing the target.  The other ptrace checks within
proc for elements like environ, maps, and fds are changed to pass the
read mode instead of attach.

In the SELinux case, we model such reading of process state as a
reading of a proc file labeled with the target process' label.  This
enables SELinux policy to permit such reading of process state without
permitting control or manipulation of the target process, as there are
a number of cases where programs probe for such information via proc
but do not need to be able to control the target (e.g. procps,
lsof, PolicyKit, ConsoleKit).  At present we have to choose between
allowing full ptrace in policy (more permissive than required/desired)
or breaking functionality (or in some cases just silencing the denials
via dontaudit rules but this can hide genuine attacks).

This version of the patch incorporates comments from Casey Schaufler
(change/replace existing ptrace_may_attach interface, pass access
mode), and Chris Wright (provide greater consistency in the checking).

Note that like their predecessors __ptrace_may_attach and
ptrace_may_attach, the __ptrace_may_access and ptrace_may_access
interfaces use different return value conventions from each other (0
or -errno vs. 1 or 0).  I retained this difference to avoid any
changes to the caller logic but made the difference clearer by
changing the latter interface to return a bool rather than an int and
by adding a comment about it to ptrace.h for any future callers.

Andi Kleen ce0c0e50f9 x86, generic: CPA add statistics about state of direct mapping v4
Add information about the mapping state of the direct mapping to
/proc/meminfo. I chose /proc/meminfo because that is where all the other
memory statistics are too and it is a generally useful metric even
outside debugging situations. A lot of split kernel pages means the
kernel will run slower.

This way we can see how many large pages are really used for it and how
many are split.

Useful for general insight into the kernel.

v2: Add hotplug locking to 64bit to plug a very obscure theoretical race.
    32bit doesn't need it because it doesn't support hotadd for lowmem.
    Fix some typos

- unstatic struct pagemap_walk, so two threads won't fsckup each other
  (including those started by root, including flipping ->mm when you don't

- pagemap_read() contains two calls to ptrace_may_attach(), second one

This patch:

  commit e9720acd72
  Author: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org>
  Date:   Fri Mar 7 11:08:40 2008 -0800

    [NET]: Make /proc/net a symlink on /proc/self/net (v3)

introduced a /proc/self/net directory without bumping the corresponding
link count for /proc/self.

This patch replaces the static link count initializations with a call that
counts the number of directory entries in the given pid_entry table
whenever it is instantiated, and thus relieves the burden of manually
keeping the two in sync.

Fix a bug in add_to_pagemap.  Previously, since pm->out was a char *,
put_user was only copying 1 byte of every PFN, resulting in the top 7
bytes of each PFN not being copied.  By requiring that reads be a multiple
of 8 bytes, I can make pm->out and pm->end u64*s instead of char*s, which
makes put_user work properly, and also simplifies the logic in
add_to_pagemap a bit.

Since the confusing header file has been in a released kernel, there is
software that is erroneously using 64-bit capabilities with the semantics
of 32-bit compatibilities.  These recently compiled programs may suffer
corruption of their memory when sys_getcap() overwrites more memory than
they are coded to expect, and the raising of added capabilities when using
sys_capset().

As such, this patch does a number of things to clean up the situation
for all. It

  1. forces the _LINUX_CAPABILITY_VERSION define to always retain its
     legacy value.

  2. adopts a new #define strategy for the kernel's internal
     implementation of the preferred magic.

  3. deprecates v2 capability magic in favor of a new (v3) magic
     number. The functionality of v3 is entirely equivalent to v2,
     the only difference being that the v2 magic causes the kernel
     to log a "deprecated" warning so the admin can find applications
     that may be using v2 inappropriately.

[User space code continues to be encouraged to use the libcap API which
protects the application from details like this.  libcap-2.10 is the first
to support v3 capabilities.]

Fixes issue reported in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=447518.
Thanks to Bojan Smojver for the report.

Denis V. Lunev c4185a0e01 proc: proc_get_inode() should get module only once
Any file under /proc/net opened more than once leaked the refcounter
on the module it belongs to.

The problem is that module_get is called for each file opening while
module_put is called only when /proc inode is destroyed. So, lets put
module counter if we are dealing with already initialised inode.

Serge E. Hallyn 289f8e27ed capabilities: add bounding set to /proc/self/status
There is currently no way to query the bounding set of another task.  As there
appears to be no security reason not to, and as Michael Kerrisk points out the
following valid reasons to do so exist:

* consistency (I can see all of the other per-thread/process sets in
  /proc/.../status)

* debugging -- I could imagine that it would make the job of debugging an
  application that uses capabilities a little simpler.

this patch adds the bounding set to /proc/self/status right after the
effective set.

Miklos Szeredi fc3ba692a4 mm: Add NR_WRITEBACK_TEMP counter
Fuse will use temporary buffers to write back dirty data from memory mappings
(normal writes are done synchronously).  This is needed, because there cannot
be any guarantee about the time in which a write will complete.

By using temporary buffers, from the MM's point if view the page is written
back immediately.  If the writeout was due to memory pressure, this
effectively migrates data from a full zone to a less full zone.

This patch adds a new counter (NR_WRITEBACK_TEMP) for the number of pages used
as temporary buffers.

Pavel Emelyanov d7321cd624 sysctl: add the ->permissions callback on the ctl_table_root
When reading from/writing to some table, a root, which this table came from,
may affect this table's permissions, depending on who is working with the
table.

The core hunk is at the bottom of this patch.  All the rest is just pushing
the ctl_table_root argument up to the sysctl_perm() function.

This will be mostly (only?) used in the net sysctls.

Pavel Emelyanov 7708bfb1c8 sysctl: merge equal proc_sys_read and proc_sys_write
Many (most of) sysctls do not have a per-container sense.  E.g.
kernel.print_fatal_signals, vm.panic_on_oom, net.core.netdev_budget and so on
and so forth.  Besides, tuning then from inside a container is not even
secure.  On the other hand, hiding them completely from the container's tasks
sometimes causes user-space to stop working.

When developing net sysctl, the common practice was to duplicate a table and
drop the write bits in table->mode, but this approach was not very elegant,
lead to excessive memory consumption and was not suitable in general.

Here's the alternative solution.  To facilitate the per-container sysctls
ctl_table_root-s were introduced.  Each root contains a list of
ctl_table_header-s that are visible to different namespaces.  The idea of this
set is to add the permissions() callback on the ctl_table_root to allow ctl
root limit permissions to the same ctl_table-s.

The main user of this functionality is the net-namespaces code, but later this
will (should) be used by more and more namespaces, containers and control
groups.

Actually, this idea's core is in a single hunk in the third patch.  First two
patches are cleanups for sysctl code, while the third one mostly extends the
arguments set of some sysctl functions.

This patch:

These ->read and ->write callbacks act in a very similar way, so merge these
paths to reduce the number of places to patch later and shrink the .text size
(a bit).

Denis V. Lunev 59b7435149 proc: introduce proc_create_data to setup de->data
This set of patches fixes an proc ->open'less usage due to ->proc_fops flip in
the most part of the kernel code.  The original OOPS is described in the
commit 2d3a4e3666325a9709cc8ea2e88151394e8f20fc:

    Typical PDE creation code looks like:

    	pde = create_proc_entry("foo", 0, NULL);
    	if (pde)
    		pde->proc_fops = &foo_proc_fops;

    Notice that PDE is first created, only then ->proc_fops is set up to
    final value. This is a problem because right after creation
    a) PDE is fully visible in /proc , and
    b) ->proc_fops are proc_file_operations which do not have ->open callback. So, it's
       possible to ->read without ->open (see one class of oopses below).

    The fix is new API called proc_create() which makes sure ->proc_fops are
    set up before gluing PDE to main tree. Typical new code looks like:

    	pde = proc_create("foo", 0, NULL, &foo_proc_fops);
    	if (!pde)
    		return -ENOMEM;

    Fix most networking users for a start.

    In the long run, create_proc_entry() for regular files will go.

In addition to this, proc_create_data is introduced to fix reading from
proc without PDE->data. The race is basically the same as above.

create_proc_entries is replaced in the entire kernel code as new method
is also simply better.

This patch:

The problem is the same as for de->proc_fops.  Right now PDE becomes visible
without data set.  So, the entry could be looked up without data.  This, in
most cases, will simply OOPS.

proc_create_data call is created to address this issue.  proc_create now
becomes a wrapper around it.

Alexey Dobriyan 7cee4e00e0 proc: less special case in xlate code
If valid "parent" is passed to proc_create/remove_proc_entry(), then name of
PDE should consist of only one path component, otherwise creation or or
removal will fail.  However, if NULL is passed as parent then create/remove
accept full path as a argument.  This is arbitrary restriction -- all
infrastructure is in place.

So, patch allows the following to succeed:

	create_proc_entry("foo/bar", 0, pde_baz);
	remove_proc_entry("baz/foo/bar", &proc_root);

Also makes the following to behave identically:

	create_proc_entry("foo/bar", 0, NULL);
	create_proc_entry("foo/bar", 0, &proc_root);

Matt Helsley 925d1c401f procfs task exe symlink
The kernel implements readlink of /proc/pid/exe by getting the file from
the first executable VMA.  Then the path to the file is reconstructed and
reported as the result.

Because of the VMA walk the code is slightly different on nommu systems.
This patch avoids separate /proc/pid/exe code on nommu systems.  Instead of
walking the VMAs to find the first executable file-backed VMA we store a
reference to the exec'd file in the mm_struct.

That reference would prevent the filesystem holding the executable file
from being unmounted even after unmapping the VMAs.  So we track the number
of VM_EXECUTABLE VMAs and drop the new reference when the last one is
unmapped.  This avoids pinning the mounted filesystem.

Christoph Lameter a10aa57987 vmalloc: show vmalloced areas via /proc/vmallocinfo
Implement a new proc file that allows the display of the currently allocated
vmalloc memory.

It allows to see the users of vmalloc.  That is important if vmalloc space is
scarce (i386 for example).

And it's going to be important for the compound page fallback to vmalloc.
Many of the current users can be switched to use compound pages with fallback.
 This means that the number of users of vmalloc is reduced and page tables no
longer necessary to access the memory.  /proc/vmallocinfo allows to review how
that reduction occurs.

If memory becomes fragmented and larger order allocations are no longer
possible then /proc/vmallocinfo allows to see which compound page allocations
fell back to virtual compound pages.  That is important for new users of
virtual compound pages.  Such as order 1 stack allocation etc that may
fallback to virtual compound pages in the future.

/proc/vmallocinfo permissions are made readable-only-by-root to avoid possible
information leakage.

Ram Pai 2d4d4864ac [patch 6/7] vfs: mountinfo: add /proc/<pid>/mountinfo
[mszeredi@suse.cz] rewrite and split big patch into managable chunks

/proc/mounts in its current form lacks important information:

 - propagation state
 - root of mount for bind mounts
 - the st_dev value used within the filesystem
 - identifier for each mount and it's parent

It also suffers from the following problems:

 - not easily extendable
 - ambiguity of mountpoints within a chrooted environment
 - doesn't distinguish between filesystem dependent and independent options
 - doesn't distinguish between per mount and per super block options

This patch introduces /proc/<pid>/mountinfo which attempts to address
all these deficiencies.

Code shared between /proc/<pid>/mounts and /proc/<pid>/mountinfo is
extracted into separate functions.

Thanks to Al Viro for the help in getting the design right.

Pavel Emelyanov e9720acd72 [NET]: Make /proc/net a symlink on /proc/self/net (v3)
Current /proc/net is done with so called "shadows", but current
implementation is broken and has little chances to get fixed.

The problem is that dentries subtree of /proc/net directory has
fancy revalidation rules to make processes living in different
net namespaces see different entries in /proc/net subtree, but
currently, tasks see in the /proc/net subdir the contents of any
other namespace, depending on who opened the file first.

The proposed fix is to turn /proc/net into a symlink, which points
to /proc/self/net, which in turn shows what previously was in
/proc/net - the network-related info, from the net namespace the
appropriate task lives in.

# ls -l /proc/net
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 8 Mar  5 15:17 /proc/net -> self/net

In other words - this behaves like /proc/mounts, but unlike
"mounts", "net" is not a file, but a directory.

Changes from v2:
* Fixed discrepancy of /proc/net nlink count and selinux labeling
  screwup pointed out by Stephen.

  To get the correct nlink count the ->getattr callback for /proc/net
  is overridden to read one from the net->proc_net entry.

  To make selinux still work the net->proc_net entry is initialized
  properly, i.e. with the "net" name and the proc_net parent.

Selinux fixes are

Reading /proc/<pid>/latency or /proc/<pid>/task/<tid>/latency could cause
NULL pointer dereference.

In lstats_open(), get_proc_task() can return NULL, in which case the kernel
will oops at lstats_show_proc() because m->private is NULL.

When get_proc_task() returns NULL, the kernel should return -ENOENT.

This can be reproduced by the following script.

Jan Blunck 4ac9137858 Embed a struct path into struct nameidata instead of nd->{dentry,mnt}
This is the central patch of a cleanup series. In most cases there is no good
reason why someone would want to use a dentry for itself. This series reflects
that fact and embeds a struct path into nameidata.

Together with the other patches of this series
- it enforced the correct order of getting/releasing the reference count on
  <dentry,vfsmount> pairs
- it prepares the VFS for stacking support since it is essential to have a
  struct path in every place where the stack can be traversed
- it reduces the overall code size:

Alexey Dobriyan 2d3a4e3666 proc: fix ->open'less usage due to ->proc_fops flip
Typical PDE creation code looks like:

	pde = create_proc_entry("foo", 0, NULL);
	if (pde)
		pde->proc_fops = &foo_proc_fops;

Notice that PDE is first created, only then ->proc_fops is set up to
final value. This is a problem because right after creation
a) PDE is fully visible in /proc , and
b) ->proc_fops are proc_file_operations which do not have ->open callback. So, it's
   possible to ->read without ->open (see one class of oopses below).

The fix is new API called proc_create() which makes sure ->proc_fops are
set up before gluing PDE to main tree. Typical new code looks like:

	pde = proc_create("foo", 0, NULL, &foo_proc_fops);
	if (!pde)
		return -ENOMEM;

Fix most networking users for a start.

In the long run, create_proc_entry() for regular files will go.

Eric W. Biederman c6caeb7c45 proc: fix the threaded /proc/self
Long ago when the CLONE_THREAD support first went it someone thought it
would be wise to point /proc/self at /proc/<tgid> instead of /proc/<pid>.

Given that /proc/<tgid> can return information about a very different task
(if enough things have been unshared) then our current process /proc/<tgid>
seems blatantly wrong.  So far I have yet to think up an example where the
current behavior would be advantageous, and I can see several places where
it is seriously non-intuitive.

We may be stuck with the current broken behavior for backwards
compatibility reasons but lets try fixing our ancient bug for the 2.6.25
time frame and see if anyone screams.

Eric W. Biederman 488e5bc456 proc: proper pidns handling for /proc/self
Currently if you access a /proc that is not mounted with your processes
current pid namespace /proc/self will point at a completely random task.

This patch fixes /proc/self to point to the current process if it is
available in the particular mount of /proc or to return -ENOENT if the
current process is not visible.

Eric W. Biederman ee992744ea proc: rewrite do_task_stat to correctly handle pid namespaces.
Currently (as pointed out by Oleg) do_task_stat has a race when calling
task_pid_nr_ns with the task exiting.  In addition do_task_stat is not
currently displaying information in the context of the pid namespace that
mounted the /proc filesystem.  So "cut -d' ' -f 1 /proc/<pid>/stat" may not
equal <pid>.

This patch fixes the problem by converting to a single_open seq_file show
method.  Getting the pid namespace from the filesystem superblock instead of
current, and simply using the the struct pid from the inode instead of
attempting to get that same pid from the task.

Eric W. Biederman be614086a4 proc: implement proc_single_file_operations
Currently many /proc/pid files use a crufty precursor to the current seq_file
api, and they don't have direct access to the pid_namespace or the pid of for
which they are displaying data.

So implement proc_single_file_operations to make the seq_file routines easy to
use, and to give access to the full state of the pid of we are displaying data
for.
