* tracing: disable seeking for trace_pipe_rawLai Jiangshan2009-04-101-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: disable pread() We set tracing_buffers_fops.llseek to no_llseek, but we can still perform pread() to read this file. That is not expected. This fix uses nonseekable_open() to disable it. tracing_buffers_fops.llseek is still set to no_llseek, it mark this file is a "non-seekable device" and is used by sys_splice(). See also do_splice() or manual of splice(2): ERRORS EINVAL Target file system doesn't support splicing; neither of the descriptors refers to a pipe; or offset given for non-seekable device.

| | | | | | | | | Kill MN10300's own profiling Kconfig as this is superfluous given that the profiling options have moved to init/Kconfig and arch/Kconfig.

* keys: Handle there being no fallback destination keyring for request_key()David Howells2009-04-091-3/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When request_key() is called, without there being any standard process keyrings on which to fall back if a destination keyring is not specified, an oops is liable to occur when construct_alloc_key() calls down_write() on dest_keyring's semaphore. Due to function inlining this may be seen as an oops in down_write() as called from request_key_and_link(). This situation crops up during boot, where request_key() is called from within the kernel (such as in CIFS mounts) where nobody is actually logged in, and so PAM has not had a chance to create a session keyring and user keyrings to act as the fallback. To fix this, make construct_alloc_key() not attempt to cache a key if there is no fallback key if no destination keyring is given specifically.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: Fixes these modes on at least one system The rewrite of the setup code into C resequenced the font setting and register reprogramming phases of configuring nonstandard VGA modes which use 480 scan lines in text mode. However, there exists at least one board (Micro-Star MS-7383 version 2.0) on which this resequencing causes an unusable display. Revert to the original sequencing: set up 480-line mode, install the font, and then adjust the vertical end register appropriately. This failure was masked by the fact that the 480-line setup was broken until checkin 5f641356127712fbdce0eee120e5ce115860c17f (therefore this is not a -stable candidate bug fix.)

Some applications which perform job-scheduling functions consult the load average when making decisions. If a cgroup is frozen, the load average does not provide a useful measure of the system's utilization to such applications. This is especially inconvenient if the job scheduler employs the cgroup freezer as a mechanism for preempting low priority jobs. Contrast this with using SIGSTOP for the same purpose: the stopped tasks do not count toward system load. Change task_contributes_to_load() to return false if the task is frozen. This results in /proc/loadavg behavior that better meets users' expectations.

Changelog: v7 - Changed the name of the statistic from utime to user and from stime to system so that in future we could easily add other statistics like irq, softirq, steal times etc easily. v6 - Fixed a bug in the error path of cpuacct_create() (pointed by Li Zefan). v5 - In cpuacct_stats_show(), use cputime64_to_clock_t() since we are operating on a 64bit variable here. v4 - Remove comments in cpuacct_update_stats() which explained why rcu_read_lock() was needed (as per Peter Zijlstra's review comments). - Don't say that percpu_counter_read() is broken in Documentation/cpuacct.txt as per KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki's review comments. v3 - Fix a small race in the cpuacct hierarchy walk. v2 - stime and utime now exported in clock_t units instead of msecs. - Addressed the code review comments from Balbir and Li Zefan. - Moved to -tip tree. v1 - Moved the stime/utime accounting to cpuacct controller.

These functions protect the sampling of thread/process clock with rq lock. This rq lock is required not to update rq->clock during the sampling. i.e. The clock_gettime() may return ((accounted runtime before update) + (delta after update)) that is less than what it should be. v2 -> v3: - Rename static helper function __task_delta_exec() to do_task_delta_exec() since -tip tree already has a __task_delta_exec() of different version. v1 -> v2: - Revises comments of function and patch description. - Add note about accuracy of thread group's runtime.

This can race with the task's movement between cgroups. This race can cause an access to freed ca pointer in cpuacct_charge() or access to invalid cgroups pointer of the task. This will not happen with rcu or tree rcu as cpuacct_charge() is called with preemption disabled. However if rcupreempt is used, the race is seen. Thanks to Li Zefan for explaining this. Fix this race by explicitly protecting ca and the hierarchy walk with rcu_read_lock().

But it uses cputime_lt() instead of cputime_gt(). Test case: int main(void) { struct itimerval it = { .it_value = { .tv_sec = 1000 }, }; assert(!setitimer(ITIMER_PROF, &it, NULL)); struct rlimit rl = { .rlim_cur = 1, .rlim_max = 1, }; assert(!setrlimit(RLIMIT_CPU, &rl)); for (;;) ; return 0; } Without this patch, the task is not killed as RLIMIT_CPU demands.

Because posix_cpu_timers_init_group() sets cputime_expires.prof_exp = 0 and thus fastpath_timer_check() returns false unless we have other expired cpu timers. Change copy_signal() to set cputime_expires.prof_exp if we have RLIMIT_CPU. Also, set cputimer.running = 1 in that case. This is not strictly necessary, but imho makes sense.

The racing between callbacks can lead to corruption of exception store and it can also mean that exception store callbacks are called twice for the same exception - a likely reason for crashes reported inside pending_complete() / remove_exception(). This patch fixes two problems: 1. job->fn being called from the thread that submitted the job (see above). - Fix: hand over the completion callback to the kcopyd thread. 2. job->fn(read_err, write_err, job->context); in segment_complete reports the error of the last subjob, not the union of all errors. - Fix: pass job->write_err to the callback to report all error bits (it is done already in run_complete_job) Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>

The thread is modified so that when it sees a barrier request it waits for all pending IO before the request then submits the barrier and waits for it. (We must wait, otherwise it could be intermixed with following requests.) Errors from the barrier request are recorded in a per-device barrier_error variable. There may be only one barrier request in progress at once. For now, the barrier request is converted to a non-barrier request when sending it to the underlying device. This patch guarantees correct barrier behavior if the underlying device doesn't perform write-back caching. The same requirement existed before barriers were supported in dm. Bottom layer barrier support (sending barriers by target drivers) and handling devices with write-back caches will be done in further patches.

IO may be submitted to a worker thread with queue_io(). queue_io() sets DMF_QUEUE_IO_TO_THREAD so that all further IO is queued for the thread. When the thread finishes its work, it clears DMF_QUEUE_IO_TO_THREAD and from this point on, requests are submitted from dm_request again. This will be used for processing barriers. Remove the loop in dm_request. queue_io() can submit I/Os to the worker thread even if DMF_QUEUE_IO_TO_THREAD was not set.

Unrelated pieces of kernel code thus gained dependencies wherein if one work_on_cpu() caller holds a lock which some other work_on_cpu() callback also takes, the kernel could rarely deadlock. Fix this by creating a short-lived kernel thread for each work_on_cpu() invokation. This is not terribly fast, but the only current caller of work_on_cpu() is pci_call_probe(). It would be nice to find some other way of doing the node-local allocations in the PCI probe code so that we can zap work_on_cpu() altogether. The code there is rather nasty. I can't think of anything simple at this time... Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
