But there's no reason to not just use common utility functions and put all the data into a common data structure. Since there are at least two users it makes sense to share this code in a library. This is also easier maintainable than a macro forest. This will also make it later possible to dynamically allocate lglocks and also use them in modules (this would both still need some additional, but now straightforward, code) [akpm@linux-foundation.org: checkpatch fixes] Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

Note that we do task_work_cancel() before task_work_add() to ensure that only one work can be pending at any time. This is important, we must not allow user-space to abuse the parent's ->task_works list. The callback, replace_session_keyring(), checks PF_EXITING. I guess this is not really needed but looks better. As a side effect, this fixes the (unlikely) race. The callers of key_replace_session_keyring() and keyctl_session_to_parent() lack the necessary barriers, the parent can miss the request. Now we can remove task_struct->replacement_session_keyring and related code.

We can use task_work instead and make this all private to kernel/irq/manage.c, cleanup plus micro-optimization. 1. rename exit_irq_thread() to irq_thread_dtor(), make it static, and move it up before irq_thread(). 2. change irq_thread() to do task_work_add(irq_thread_dtor) at the start and task_work_cancel() before return. tracehook_notify_resume() can never play with kthreads, only do_exit()->exit_task_work() can call the callback and this is what we want. 3. remove task_struct->irq_thread and the special hook in do_exit().

The caller does task_work_add(task, task_work) and this task executes task_work->func() either from do_notify_resume() or from do_exit(). The callback can rely on PF_EXITING to detect the latter case. "struct task_work" can be embedded in another struct, still it has "void *data" to handle the most common/simple case. This allows us to kill the ->replacement_session_keyring hack, and potentially this can have more users. Performance-wise, this adds 2 "unlikely(!hlist_empty())" checks into tracehook_notify_resume() and do_exit(). But at the same time we can remove the "replacement_session_keyring != NULL" checks from arch/*/signal.c and exit_creds(). Note: task_work_add/task_work_run abuses ->pi_lock. This is only because this lock is already used by lookup_pi_state() to synchronize with do_exit() setting PF_EXITING. Fortunately the scope of this lock in task_work.c is really tiny, and the code is unlikely anyway.

For this the PR_SET_MM_EXE_FILE code is introduced. This option takes a file descriptor which will be set as a source for new /proc/$pid/exe symlink. Note it allows to change /proc/$pid/exe if there are no VM_EXECUTABLE vmas present for current process, simply because this feature is a special to C/R and mm::num_exe_file_vmas become meaningless after that. To minimize the amount of transition the /proc/pid/exe symlink might have, this feature is implemented in one-shot manner. Thus once changed the symlink can't be changed again. This should help sysadmins to monitor the symlinks over all process running in a system. In particular one could make a snapshot of processes and ring alarm if there unexpected changes of /proc/pid/exe's in a system. Note -- this feature is available iif CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE is set and the caller must have CAP_SYS_RESOURCE capability granted, otherwise the request to change symlink will be rejected.

But among stack data itself, the stack carries additional parameters such as command line arguments, environment data and auxiliary vector. So when we do restore procedure and once we've restored stack data itself we need to setup mm_struct::arg_start/end, env_start/end, so restored process would be able to find command line arguments and environment data it had at checkpoint time. The same applies to auxiliary vector. For this reason additional PR_SET_MM_(ARG_START | ARG_END | ENV_START | ENV_END | AUXV) codes are introduced.

One of the ways for checking whether two tasks share e.g. mm_struct is to provide some mm_struct ID of a task to its proc file, but showing such info considered to be not that good for security reasons. Thus after some debates we end up in conclusion that using that named 'comparison' syscall might be the best candidate. So here is it -- __NR_kcmp. It takes up to 5 arguments - the pids of the two tasks (which characteristics should be compared), the comparison type and (in case of comparison of files) two file descriptors. Lookups for pids are done in the caller's PID namespace only. At moment only x86 is supported and tested.

Doug Ledford propsed to switch back it to static hard coded value. However it also has a compatibility problem. Some applications might started depend on the default value is tunable.

Unfortunately, we had customers that relied on a size much larger than 8192*128 on their production systems. After reviewing POSIX, we found that it is silent on the maximum message size. We did find a couple other areas in which it was not silent. Fix up the mqueue maximums so that the customer's system can continue to work, and document both the POSIX and real world requirements in ipc_namespace.h so that we don't have this issue crop back up. Also, commit 9cf18e1dd74cd0 ("ipc: HARD_MSGMAX should be higher not lower on 64bit") fiddled with HARD_MSGMAX without realizing that the number was intentionally in place to limit the msg queue depth to one that was small enough to kmalloc an array of pointers (hence why we divided 128k by sizeof(long)). If we wish to meet POSIX requirements, we have no choice but to change our allocation to a vmalloc instead (at least for the large queue size case). With that, it's possible to increase our allowed maximum to the POSIX requirements (or more if we choose).

However, if the admin has set the maximums to allow flexibility in creating a queue (aka, both a large size and large queue are allowed, but combined they create a queue too large for the RLIMIT_MSGQUEUE of the user), then attempts to create a queue without an attr struct will fail. Switch back to using acceptable defaults regardless of what the maximums are. Note: so far, we only know of a few applications that rely on this behavior (specifically, set the maximums in /proc, then run the application which calls mq_open() without passing in an attr struct, and the application expects the newly created message queue to have the maximum sizes that were set in /proc used on the mq_open() call, and all of those applications that we know of are actually part of regression test suites that were coded to do something like this: for size in 4096 65536 $((1024 * 1024)) $((16 * 1024 * 1024)); do echo $size > /proc/sys/fs/mqueue/msgsize_max mq_open || echo "Error opening mq with size $size" done These test suites that depend on any behavior like this are broken. The concept that programs should rely upon the system wide maximum in order to get their desired results instead of simply using a attr struct to specify what they want is fundamentally unfriendly programming practice for any multi-tasking OS. Fixing this will break those few apps that we know of (and those app authors recognize the brokenness of their code and the need to fix it). However, the following patch "mqueue: separate mqueue default value" allows a workaround in the form of new knobs for the default msg queue creation parameters for any software out there that we don't already know about that might rely on this behavior at the moment.

This was uncovered when one of the earlier patches in this patch set increased the default system wide maximums at the same time it increased the hard ceiling on the system wide maximums (a customer specifically needed the hard ceiling brought back up, the new ceiling that commit b231cca4381e introduced was too low for their production systems). By increasing the default maximums and not realising they were tied to any attempt to create a message queue without an attribute struct, I had inadvertently made it such that all message queue creation attempts without an attribute struct were failing because the new default maximums would create a queue that exceeded the default rlimit for message queue bytes. As a result, the system wide defaults were brought back down to their previous levels, and the system wide ceilings on the maximums were raised to meet the customer's needs. However, the fact that the no attribute struct behavior of mq_open() could be broken by changing the system wide maximums for message queues was seen as fundamentally broken itself. So we hardwired the no attribute case back like it used to be. But, then we realized that on the very off chance that some piece of software in the wild depended on that behavior, we could work around that issue by adding two new knobs to /proc that allowed setting the defaults for message queues created without an attr struct separately from the system wide maximums. What is not an option IMO is to leave the current behavior in place. No piece of software should ever rely on setting the system wide maximums in order to get a desired message queue. Such a reliance would be so fundamentally multitasking OS unfriendly as to not really be tolerable. Fortunately, we don't know of any software in the wild that uses this except for a regression test program that caught the issue in the first place. If there is though, we have made accommodations with the two new /proc knobs (and that's all the accommodations such fundamentally broken software can be allowed).. This patch: The various defines for minimums and maximums of the sysctl controllable mqueue values are scattered amongst different files and named inconsistently. Move them all into ipc_namespace.h and make them have consistent names. Additionally, make the number of queues per namespace also have a minimum and maximum and use the same sysctl function as the other two settable variables.

Working with task->mm w/o getting mm or grabing the task lock is dangerous as ->mm might disappear (exit_mm() assigns NULL under task_lock(), so tasklist lock is not enough). 2. Checking for process->mm is not enough because process' main thread may exit or detach its mm via use_mm(), but other threads may still have a valid mm. This patch implements a small helper function that does things correctly, i.e.: 1. We take the task's lock while whe handle its mm (we can't use get_task_mm()/mmput() pair as mmput() might sleep); 2. To catch exited main thread case, we use find_lock_task_mm(), which walks up all threads and returns an appropriate task (with task lock held). Also, Per Peter Zijlstra's idea, now we don't grab tasklist_lock in the new helper, instead we take the rcu read lock. We can do this because the function is called after the cpu is taken down and marked offline, so no new tasks will get this cpu set in their mm mask.

OK, but afaics currently this can only help wait_task_zombie() which calls __task_cred() without rcu lock. Remove this validation and change wait_task_zombie() to use task_uid() instead. This means we do rcu_read_lock() only to shut up the lockdep, but we already do the same in, say, wait_task_stopped(). task_is_dead() should die, task->exit_state != 0 means that this task has passed exit_notify(), only do_wait-like code paths should use this. Unfortunately, we can't kill task_is_dead() right now, it has already acquired buggy users in drivers/staging. The fix already exists.

| * | | | | | | | | | | fat: introduce special inode for managing the FSINFO blockArtem Bityutskiy2012-05-311-1/+2

The final goal is to get rid of the 'sync_supers()' kernel thread. This kernel thread wakes up every 5 seconds (by default) and calls '->write_super()' for all mounted file-systems. And the bad thing is that this is done even if all the superblocks are clean. Moreover, some file-systems do not even need this end they do not register the '->write_super()' method at all (e.g., btrfs). So 'sync_supers()' most often just generates useless wake-ups and wastes power. I am trying to make all file-systems independent of '->write_super()' and plan to remove 'sync_supers()' and '->write_super' completely once there are no more users. The '->write_supers()' method is mostly used by baroque file-systems like hfs, udf, etc. Modern file-systems like btrfs and xfs do not use it. This justifies removing this stuff from VFS completely and make every FS self-manage own superblock. Tested with xfstests. This patch: Preparation for further changes. It introduces a special inode ('fsinfo_inode') in FAT file-system which we'll later use for managing the FSINFO block. Note, this there is already one special inode ('fat_inode') which is used for managing the FAT tables. Introduce new 'MSDOS_FSINFO_INO' constant for this special inode. It is safe to do because FAT file-system does not store inode numbers on the media but generates them run-time. I've also cleaned up the comment to existing 'MSDOS_ROOT_INO' constant, while on it.

While ULONG_MAX happens to work on most systems, there is no guarantee that `size_t' must be the same size as `long'. This patch introduces SIZE_MAX, the maximum value of `size_t', to improve portability and readability for allocation size validation.
