Impact: properly rebuild sched-domains on kmalloc() failure
When cpuset failed to generate sched domains due to kmalloc()
failure, the scheduler should fallback to the single partition
'fallback_doms' and rebuild sched domains, but now it only
destroys but not rebuilds sched domains.
The regression was introduced by:
| commit dfb512ec4834116124da61d6c1ee10fd0aa32bd6
| Author: Max Krasnyansky <maxk@qualcomm.com>
| Date: Fri Aug 29 13:11:41 2008 -0700
|
| sched: arch_reinit_sched_domains() must destroy domains to force rebuild
After the above commit, partition_sched_domains(0, NULL, NULL) will
only destroy sched domains and partition_sched_domains(1, NULL, NULL)
will create the default sched domain.

Impact: fix potential NULL dereference
Contrary to ad474caca3e2a0550b7ce0706527ad5ab389a4d4 changelog, other
acct_group_xxx() helpers can be called after exit_notify() by timer tick.
Thanks to Roland for pointing out this. Somehow I missed this simple fact
when I read the original patch, and I am afraid I confused Frank during
the discussion. Sorry.
Fortunately, these helpers work with current, we can check ->exit_state
to ensure that ->signal can't go away under us.
Also, add the comment and compiler barrier to account_group_exec_runtime(),
to make sure we load ->signal only once.

For some unknown reason at Steven Rostedt added in disabling of the SPE
instruction generation for e500 based PPC cores in commit
6ec562328fda585be2d7f472cfac99d3b44d362a.
We are removing it because:
1. It generates e500 kernels that don't work
2. its not the correct set of flags to do this
3. we handle this in the arch/powerpc/Makefile already
4. its unknown in talking to Steven why he did this

Inotify watch removals suck violently.
To kick the watch out we need (in this order) inode->inotify_mutex and
ih->mutex. That's fine if we have a hold on inode; however, for all
other cases we need to make damn sure we don't race with umount. We can
*NOT* just grab a reference to a watch - inotify_unmount_inodes() will
happily sail past it and we'll end with reference to inode potentially
outliving its superblock.
Ideally we just want to grab an active reference to superblock if we
can; that will make sure we won't go into inotify_umount_inodes() until
we are done. Cleanup is just deactivate_super().
However, that leaves a messy case - what if we *are* racing with
umount() and active references to superblock can't be acquired anymore?
We can bump ->s_count, grab ->s_umount, which will almost certainly wait
until the superblock is shut down and the watch in question is pining
for fjords. That's fine, but there is a problem - we might have hit the
window between ->s_active getting to 0 / ->s_count - below S_BIAS (i.e.
the moment when superblock is past the point of no return and is heading
for shutdown) and the moment when deactivate_super() acquires
->s_umount.
We could just do drop_super() yield() and retry, but that's rather
antisocial and this stuff is luser-triggerable. OTOH, having grabbed
->s_umount and having found that we'd got there first (i.e. that
->s_root is non-NULL) we know that we won't race with
inotify_umount_inodes().
So we could grab a reference to watch and do the rest as above, just
with drop_super() instead of deactivate_super(), right? Wrong. We had
to drop ih->mutex before we could grab ->s_umount. So the watch
could've been gone already.
That still can be dealt with - we need to save watch->wd, do idr_find()
and compare its result with our pointer. If they match, we either have
the damn thing still alive or we'd lost not one but two races at once,
the watch had been killed and a new one got created with the same ->wd
at the same address. That couldn't have happened in inotify_destroy(),
but inotify_rm_wd() could run into that. Still, "new one got created"
is not a problem - we have every right to kill it or leave it alone,
whatever's more convenient.
So we can use idr_find(...) == watch && watch->inode->i_sb == sb as
"grab it and kill it" check. If it's been our original watch, we are
fine, if it's a newcomer - nevermind, just pretend that we'd won the
race and kill the fscker anyway; we are safe since we know that its
superblock won't be going away.
And yes, this is far beyond mere "not very pretty"; so's the entire
concept of inotify to start with.

We don't want to get rid of the futexes just at exit() time, we want to
drop them when doing an execve() too, since that gets rid of the
previous VM image too.
Doing it at mm_release() time means that we automatically always do it
when we disassociate a VM map from the task.

Impact: fix load balancer load average calculation accuracy
cpu_avg_load_per_task() returns a stale value when nr_running is 0.
It returns an older stale (caculated when nr_running was non zero) value.
This patch returns and sets rq->avg_load_per_task to zero when nr_running
is 0.
Compile and boot tested on a x86_64 box.

__register_kprobe() can be preempted after checking probing address but
before module_text_address() or try_module_get(), and in this interval
the module can be unloaded. In that case, try_module_get(probed_mod)
will access to invalid address, or kprobe will probe invalid address.
This patch uses preempt_disable() to protect it and uses
__module_text_address() and __kernel_text_address().

With this change, control file 'freezer.state' doesn't exist in root
cgroup, making root cgroup unfreezable.
I think it's reasonable to disallow freeze tasks in the root cgroup. And
then we can avoid fork overhead when freezer subsystem is compiled but not
used.
Also make writing invalid value to freezer.state returns EINVAL rather
than EIO. This is more consistent with other cgroup subsystem.

In theory the task can be moved to another cgroup and the freezer will be
freed right after task_lock is dropped, so the lock results in zero
protection.
But in the case of freezer_fork() no lock is needed, since the task is not
in tasklist yet so it won't be moved to another cgroup, so task->cgroups
won't be changed or invalidated.

Impact: fix incorrect locking triggered during hotplug-intense stress-tests
While migrating the the CB_IRQSAFE_UNLOCKED timers during a cpu-offline,
we queue them on the cb_pending list, so that they won't go
stale.
Thus, when the callbacks of the timers run from the softirq context,
they could run into potential deadlocks, since these callbacks
assume that they're running with irq's disabled, thereby annoying
lockdep!
Fix this by emulating hardirq context while running these callbacks from
the hrtimer softirq.

Impact: nohz powersavings and wakeup regression
commit fb02fbc14d17837b4b7b02dbb36142c16a7bf208 (NOHZ: restart tick
device from irq_enter()) causes a serious wakeup regression.
While the patch is correct it does not take into account that spurious
wakeups happen on x86. A fix for this issue is available, but we just
revert to the .27 behaviour and let long running softirqs screw
themself.
Disable it for now.

Impact: avoid spurious ksoftirqd wakeups
The tick idle check which is called from irq_enter() was run before
the call to __irq_enter() which did not set the in_interrupt() bits in
preempt_count. That way the raise of a softirq woke up softirqd for
nothing as the softirq was handled on return from interrupt.
Call __irq_enter() before calling into the tick idle check code.

under rq->lock
Impact: fix hang/crash on ia64 under high load
This is ugly, but the simplest patch by far.
Unlike other similar routines, account_group_exec_runtime() could be
called "implicitly" from within scheduler after exit_notify(). This
means we can race with the parent doing release_task(), we can't just
check ->signal != NULL.
Change __exit_signal() to do spin_unlock_wait(&task_rq(tsk)->lock)
before __cleanup_signal() to make sure ->signal can't be freed under
task_rq(tsk)->lock. Note that task_rq_unlock_wait() doesn't care
about the case when tsk changes cpu/rq under us, this should be OK.
Thanks to Ingo who nacked my previous buggy patch.

Impact: removal of unnecessary looping
The lockless part of the ring buffer allows for reentry into the code
from interrupts. A timestamp is taken, a test is preformed and if it
detects that an interrupt occurred that did tracing, it tries again.
The problem arises if the timestamp code itself causes a trace.
The detection will detect this and loop again. The difference between
this and an interrupt doing tracing, is that this will fail every time,
and cause an infinite loop.
Currently, we test if the loop happens 1000 times, and if so, it will
produce a warning and disable the ring buffer.
The problem with this approach is that it makes it difficult to perform
some types of tracing (tracing the timestamp code itself).
Each trace entry has a delta timestamp from the previous entry.
If a trace entry is reserved but and interrupt occurs and traces before
the previous entry is commited, the delta timestamp for that entry will
be zero. This actually makes sense in terms of tracing, because the
interrupt entry happened before the preempted entry was commited, so
one may consider the two happening at the same time. The order is
still preserved in the buffer.
With this idea, instead of trying to get a new timestamp if an interrupt
made it in between the timestamp and the test, the entry could simply
make the delta zero and continue. This will prevent interrupts or
tracers in the timer code from causing the above loop.

This patch addresses the bug found here:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11996
When ftrace converted to the new unified trace buffer, the resizing of
the buffer was not protected as much as it was originally. If tracing
is performed while the resize occurs, then the buffer can be corrupted.
This patch disables all ftrace buffer modifications before a resize
takes place.

Impact: introduce new APIs
We want to deprecate cpumasks on the stack, as we are headed for
gynormous numbers of CPUs. Eventually, we want to head towards an
undefined 'struct cpumask' so they can never be declared on stack.
1) New cpumask functions which take pointers instead of copies.
(cpus_* -> cpumask_*)
2) Several new helpers to reduce requirements for temporary cpumasks
(cpumask_first_and, cpumask_next_and, cpumask_any_and)
3) Helpers for declaring cpumasks on or offstack for large NR_CPUS
(cpumask_var_t, alloc_cpumask_var and free_cpumask_var)
4) 'struct cpumask' for explicitness and to mark new-style code.
5) Make iterator functions stop at nr_cpu_ids (a runtime constant),
not NR_CPUS for time efficiency and for smaller dynamic allocations
in future.
6) cpumask_copy() so we can allocate less than a full cpumask eventually
(for alloc_cpumask_var), and so we can eliminate the 'struct cpumask'
definition eventually.
7) work_on_cpu() helper for doing task on a CPU, rather than saving old
cpumask for current thread and manipulating it.
8) smp_call_function_many() which is smp_call_function_mask() except
taking a cpumask pointer.
Note that this patch simply introduces the new functions and leaves
the obsolescent ones in place. This is to simplify the transition
patches.

smp_mb() is needed (to make the memory operations visible globally) before
sending the ipi on the sender and the receiver (on Alpha atleast) needs
smp_read_barrier_depends() in the handler before reading the call_single_queue
list in a lock-free fashion.
On x86, x2apic mode register accesses for sending IPI's don't have serializing
semantics. So the need for smp_mb() before sending the IPI becomes more
critical in x2apic mode.
Remove the unnecessary smp_mb() in csd_flag_wait(), as the presence of that
smp_mb() doesn't mean anything on the sender, when the ipi receiver is not
doing any thing special (like memory fence) after clearing the CSD_FLAG_WAIT.

Impact: improve/change/fix wakeup-buddy scheduling
Currently we only have a forward looking buddy, that is, we prefer to
schedule to the task we last woke up, under the presumption that its
going to consume the data we just produced, and therefore will have
cache hot benefits.
This allows co-waking producer/consumer task pairs to run ahead of the
pack for a little while, keeping their cache warm. Without this, we
would interleave all pairs, utterly trashing the cache.
This patch introduces a backward looking buddy, that is, suppose that
in the above scenario, the consumer preempts the producer before it
can go to sleep, we will therefore miss the wakeup from consumer to
producer (its already running, after all), breaking the cycle and
reverting to the cache-trashing interleaved schedule pattern.
The backward buddy will try to schedule back to the task that woke us
up in case the forward buddy is not available, under the assumption
that the last task will be the one with the most cache hot task around
barring current.
This will basically allow a task to continue after it got preempted.
In order to avoid starvation, we allow either buddy to get wakeup_gran
ahead of the pack.

Impact: ia64+tracing build fix
When a function is kprobed, the return address is set to the
kprobe_trampoline, or something similar. This caused the output
of the trace to look confusing when the parent seemed to be this
"kprobe_trampoline" function.
To fix this, Abhishek Sagar added a test of the instruction pointer
of the parent to see if it matched the kprobe_trampoline. If it
did, the output would print a "[unknown/kretprobe'd]" instead.
Unfortunately, not all archs do this the same way, and the trampoline
function may not be exported, which causes failures in builds.
This patch will compare the name instead of the pointer to see
if it matches. This prevents us from depending on a function from
being exported, and should work on all archs. The worst that can
happen is that an arch might use a different name and then we
go back to the confusing output. At least the arch will still build.

This one apparently doesn't generate any warnings, because the function
is only used during system bootup, when the warnings are disabled. But
it's still very wrong.
The __reserve_region_with_split() function is called with the
resource_lock held for writing, so it must only ever do GFP_ATOMIC
allocations.

Impact: build fix on non-lockdep architectures
Some architectures do not support a way to read the irq flags that
is set from "local_irq_save(flags)" to determine if interrupts were
disabled or enabled. Ftrace uses this information to display to the user
if the trace occurred with interrupts enabled or disabled.
Besides the fact that those archs that do not support this will fail to
compile, unless they fix it, we do not want to have the trace simply
say interrupts were not disabled or they were enabled, without knowing
the real answer.
This patch adds a 'X' in the output to let the user know that the
architecture they are running on does not support a way for the tracer
to determine if interrupts were enabled or disabled. It also lets those
same archs compile with tracing enabled.
