|\ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * 'kmemleak' of git://linux-arm.org/linux-2.6: kmemleak: Inform kmemleak about pid_hash kmemleak: Do not warn if an unknown object is freed kmemleak: Do not report new leaked objects if the scanning was stopped kmemleak: Slightly change the policy on newly allocated objects kmemleak: Do not trigger a scan when reading the debug/kmemleak file kmemleak: Simplify the reports logged by the scanning thread kmemleak: Enable task stacks scanning by default kmemleak: Allow the early log buffer to be configurable.
| * kmemleak: Inform kmemleak about pid_hashCatalin Marinas2009-06-291-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Kmemleak does not track alloc_bootmem calls but the pid_hash allocated in pidhash_init() would need to be scanned as it contains pointers to struct pid objects. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

| * | perf_counter: Provide a way to enable counters on execPaul Mackerras2009-06-301-0/+50
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This provides a way to mark a counter to be enabled on the next exec. This is useful for measuring the total activity of a program without including overhead from the process that launches it. This also changes the perf stat command to use this new facility.

| * | perf_counter: Rework the sample ABIPeter Zijlstra2009-06-251-21/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The PERF_EVENT_READ implementation made me realize we don't actually need the sample_type int the output sample, since we already have that in the perf_counter_attr information. Therefore, remove the PERF_EVENT_MISC_OVERFLOW bit and the event->type overloading, and imply put counter overflow samples in a PERF_EVENT_SAMPLE type. This also fixes the issue that event->type was only 32-bit and sample_type had 64 usable bits.

| * | perf_counter: Implement more accurate per task statisticsPeter Zijlstra2009-06-251-3/+80
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With the introduction of PERF_EVENT_READ we have the possibility to provide accurate counter values for individual tasks in a task hierarchy. However, due to the lazy context switching used for similar counter contexts our current per task counts are way off. In order to maintain some of the lazy switch benefits we don't disable it out-right, but simply iterate the active counters and flip the values between the contexts. This only reads the counters but does not need to reprogram the full PMU.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Provide a read() like event which can be used to log the counter value at specific sites such as child->parent folding on exit. In order to be useful, we log the counter parent ID, not the actual counter ID, since userspace can only relate parent IDs to perf_counter_attr constructs.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We don't need to add usage counts for swcounter and attr usage models for inherited counters since the parent counter will always have one, which suffices to generate the needed output.

When enabled, the kernel panics when the kernel receives an NMI caused by an IO error. The IO error triggered NMI indicates a serious system condition, which could result in IO data corruption. Rather than contiuing, panicing and dumping might be a better choice, so one can figure out what's causing the IO error. This could be especially important to companies running IO intensive applications where corruption must be avoided, e.g. a bank's databases.

The patch was made on two wrong assumptions: 1) access_ok(VERIFY_WRITE,...) would actually check write access. On x86 it does _NOT_. It's a pure address range check. 2) a RW mapped region can not go away under us. That's wrong as well. Nobody can prevent another thread to call mprotect(PROT_READ) on that region where the futex resides. If that call hits between the get_user_pages_fast() verification and the actual write access in the atomic region we are toast again. The solution is to not rely on access_ok and get_user() for any write access related fault on private and shared futexes. Instead we need to fault it in with verification of write access. There is no generic non destructive write mechanism which would fault the user page in trough a #PF, but as we already know that we will fault we can as well call get_user_pages() directly and avoid the #PF overhead. If get_user_pages() returns -EFAULT we know that we can not fix it anymore and need to bail out to user space. Remove a bunch of confusing comments on this issue as well.

This patch unfies the audit message from two different places into a helper function and calls it from the correct location in audit_update_rules().
