2012-03-23usermodehelper: kill umh_wait, renumber UMH_* constantsOleg Nesterov
No functional changes. It is not sane to use UMH_KILLABLE with enum umh_wait, but obviously we do not want another argument in call_usermodehelper_* helpers. Kill this enum, use the plain int.

2012-03-23usermodehelper: implement UMH_KILLABLEOleg Nesterov
Implement UMH_KILLABLE, should be used along with UMH_WAIT_EXEC/PROC. The caller must ensure that subprocess_info->path/etc can not go away until call_usermodehelper_freeinfo(). call_usermodehelper_exec(UMH_KILLABLE) does wait_for_completion_killable. If it fails, it uses xchg(&sub_info->complete, NULL) to serialize with umh_complete() which does the same xhcg() to access sub_info->complete. If call_usermodehelper_exec wins, it can safely return. umh_complete() should get NULL and call call_usermodehelper_freeinfo(). Otherwise we know that umh_complete() was already called, in this case call_usermodehelper_exec() falls back to wait_for_completion() which should succeed "very soon". Note: UMH_NO_WAIT == -1 but it obviously should not be used with UMH_KILLABLE. We delay the neccessary cleanup to simplify the back porting.

Change zap_pid_ns_processes() to use SEND_SIG_FORCED, it looks more clear compared to SEND_SIG_NOINFO which relies on from_ancestor_ns logic send_signal(). It is also more efficient if we need to kill a lot of tasks because it doesn't alloc sigqueue. While at it, add the __fatal_signal_pending(task) check as a minor optimization.

2012-03-23signal: give SEND_SIG_FORCED more power to beat SIGNAL_UNKILLABLEOleg Nesterov
force_sig_info() and friends have the special semantics for synchronous signals, this interface should not be used if the target is not current. And it needs the fixes, in particular the clearing of SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE is not exactly right. However there are callers which have to use force_ exactly because it clears SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE and thus it can kill the CLONE_NEWPID tasks, although this is almost always is wrong by various reasons. With this patch SEND_SIG_FORCED ignores SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE, like we do if the signal comes from the ancestor namespace. This makes the naming in prepare_signal() paths insane, fixed by the next cleanup. Note: this only affects SIGKILL/SIGSTOP, but this is enough for force_sig() abusers.

PTRACE_SEIZE code is tested and ready for production use, remove the code which requires special bit in data argument to make PTRACE_SEIZE work.

2012-03-23ptrace: make PTRACE_SEIZE set ptrace options specified in 'data' parameterDenys Vlasenko
This can be used to close a few corner cases in strace where we get unwanted racy behavior after attach, but before we have a chance to set options (the notorious post-execve SIGTRAP comes to mind), and removes the need to track "did we set opts for this task" state in strace internals. While we are at it: Make it possible to extend SEIZE in the future with more functionality by passing non-zero 'addr' parameter. To that end, error out if 'addr' is non-zero. PTRACE_ATTACH did not (and still does not) have such check, and users (strace) do pass garbage there... let's avoid repeating this mistake with SEIZE. Set all task->ptrace bits in one operation - before this change, we were adding PT_SEIZED and PT_PTRACE_CAP with task->ptrace |= BIT ops. This was probably ok (not a bug), but let's be on a safer side. Changes since v2: use (unsigned long) casts instead of (long) ones, move PTRACE_SEIZE_DEVEL-related code to separate lines of code.

2012-03-23ptrace: simplify PTRACE_foo constants and PTRACE_SETOPTIONS codeDenys Vlasenko
Exchange PT_TRACESYSGOOD and PT_PTRACE_CAP bit positions, which makes PT_option bits contiguous and therefore makes code in ptrace_setoptions() much simpler. Every PTRACE_O_TRACEevent is defined to (1 << PTRACE_EVENT_event) instead of using explicit numeric constants, to ensure we don't mess up relationship between bit positions and event ids. PT_EVENT_FLAG_SHIFT was not particularly useful, PT_OPT_FLAG_SHIFT with value of PT_EVENT_FLAG_SHIFT-1 is easier to use. PT_TRACE_MASK constant is nuked, the only its use is replaced by (PTRACE_O_MASK << PT_OPT_FLAG_SHIFT).

2012-03-23ptrace: don't modify flags on PTRACE_SETOPTIONS failureDenys Vlasenko
On ptrace(PTRACE_SETOPTIONS, pid, 0, <opts>), we used to set those option bits which are known, and then fail with -EINVAL if there are some unknown bits in <opts>. This is inconsistent with typical error handling, which does not change any state if input is invalid. This patch changes PTRACE_SETOPTIONS behavior so that in this case, we return -EINVAL and don't change any bits in task->ptrace. It's very unlikely that there is userspace code in the wild which will be affected by this change: it should have the form ptrace(PTRACE_SETOPTIONS, pid, 0, PTRACE_O_BOGUSOPT) where PTRACE_O_BOGUSOPT is a constant unknown to the kernel. But kernel headers, naturally, don't contain any PTRACE_O_BOGUSOPTs, thus the only way userspace can use one if it defines one itself. I can't see why anyone would do such a thing deliberately.

2012-03-23watchdog: make sure the watchdog thread gets CPU on loaded systemMichal Hocko
If the system is loaded while hotplugging a CPU we might end up with a bogus hardlockup detection. This has been seen during LTP pounder test executed in parallel with hotplug test. The main problem is that enable_watchdog (called when CPU is brought up) registers perf event which periodically checks per-cpu counter (hrtimer_interrupts), updated from a hrtimer callback, but the hrtimer is fired from the kernel thread. This means that while we already do check for the hard lockup the kernel thread might be sitting on the runqueue with zillions of tasks so there is nobody to update the value we rely on and so we KABOOM. Let's fix this by boosting the watchdog thread priority before we wake it up rather than when it's already running. This still doesn't handle a case where we have the same amount of high prio FIFO tasks but that doesn't seem to be common. The current implementation doesn't handle that case anyway so this is not worse at least. Unfortunately, we cannot start perf counter from the watchdog thread because we could miss a real lock up and also we cannot start the hrtimer watchdog_enable because we there is no way (at least I don't know any) to start a hrtimer from a different CPU.

2012-03-23kernel/exit.c: if init dies, log a signal which killed it, if anyDenys Vlasenko
I just received another user's pleas for help when their init mysteriously died. I again explained that they need to check whether it died because of bad instruction, a segv, or something else. Which was an annoying detour into writing a trivial C program to spawn his init and print its exit code: http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/busybox/2012-January/077172.html I hear you saying "just test it under /bin/sh". Well, the crashing init _was_ /bin/sh. Which prompted me to make kernel do this first step automatically. We can print exit code, which makes it possible to see that death was from e.g. SIGILL without writing test programs.

2012-03-23prctl: add PR_{SET,GET}_CHILD_SUBREAPER to allow simple process supervisionLennart Poettering
Userspace service managers/supervisors need to track their started services. Many services daemonize by double-forking and get implicitly re-parented to PID 1. The service manager will no longer be able to receive the SIGCHLD signals for them, and is no longer in charge of reaping the children with wait(). All information about the children is lost at the moment PID 1 cleans up the re-parented processes. With this prctl, a service manager process can mark itself as a sort of 'sub-init', able to stay as the parent for all orphaned processes created by the started services. All SIGCHLD signals will be delivered to the service manager. Receiving SIGCHLD and doing wait() is in cases of a service-manager much preferred over any possible asynchronous notification about specific PIDs, because the service manager has full access to the child process data in /proc and the PID can not be re-used until the wait(), the service-manager itself is in charge of, has happened. As a side effect, the relevant parent PID information does not get lost by a double-fork, which results in a more elaborate process tree and 'ps' output: before: # ps afx 253 ? Ss 0:00 /bin/dbus-daemon --system --nofork 294 ? Sl 0:00 /usr/libexec/polkit-1/polkitd 328 ? S 0:00 /usr/sbin/modem-manager 608 ? Sl 0:00 /usr/libexec/colord 658 ? Sl 0:00 /usr/libexec/upowerd 819 ?

Sl 0:00 \_ /usr/libexec/packagekitd This prctl is orthogonal to PID namespaces. PID namespaces are isolated from each other, while a service management process usually requires the services to live in the same namespace, to be able to talk to each other. Users of this will be the systemd per-user instance, which provides init-like functionality for the user's login session and D-Bus, which activates bus services on-demand. Both need init-like capabilities to be able to properly keep track of the services they start. Many thanks to Oleg for several rounds of review and insights.

2012-03-23ntp: Fix leap-second hrtimer livelockJohn Stultz
Since commit 7dffa3c673fbcf835cd7be80bb4aec8ad3f51168 the ntp subsystem has used an hrtimer for triggering the leapsecond adjustment. However, this can cause a potential livelock. Thomas diagnosed this as the following pattern: CPU 0 CPU 1 do_adjtimex() spin_lock_irq(&ntp_lock); process_adjtimex_modes(); timer_interrupt() process_adj_status(); do_timer() ntp_start_leap_timer(); write_lock(&xtime_lock); hrtimer_start(); update_wall_time(); hrtimer_reprogram(); ntp_tick_length() tick_program_event() spin_lock(&ntp_lock); clockevents_program_event() ktime_get() seq = req_seqbegin(xtime_lock); This patch tries to avoid the problem by reverting back to not using an hrtimer to inject leapseconds, and instead we handle the leapsecond processing in the second_overflow() function. The downside to this change is that on systems that support highres timers, the leap second processing will occur on a HZ tick boundary, (ie: ~1-10ms, depending on HZ) after the leap second instead of possibly sooner (~34us in my tests w/ x86_64 lapic). This patch applies on top of tip/timers/core.

Repeats look something like 0x1c 0x1c .... 0x9c 2) Use of 'keypad enter' gives warning message and leaks the ENTER break/make code out if KDB exits. KP ENTER repeats look someting like 0xe0 0x1c 0xe0 0x1c ... 0xe0 0x9c. 3) Lag on the order of seconds between "break" and "make" when expecting the enter "break" code. Seen under virtualized environments such as VMware ESX. The existing special enter handler tries to glob the enter break code, but this fails if the other (KP) enter was used, or if there was a key repeat. It also fails if you mashed some keys along with enter, and you ended up with a non-enter make or non-enter break code coming after the enter make code. So first, we modify the handler to handle these cases. But performing these actions on every enter is annoying since now you can't hold ENTER down to scroll <more>d messages in KDB. Since this special behaviour is only necessary to handle the exiting KDB ('g' + ENTER) without leaking scancodes to the OS. This cleanup needs to get executed anytime the kdb_main loop exits. Tested on QEMU. Set a bp on atkbd.c to verify no scan code was leaked.

Calling gdbstub_exit() will set the proper debug core state and send a message to any debugger that is connected to correctly detach. An attached debugger will receive the exit code from include/linux/reboot.h based on SYS_HALT, SYS_REBOOT, etc...

Commit c1e2ee2dc436 ("memcg: replace ss->id_lock with a rwlock") has now been seen to cause the unfair behavior we should have expected from converting a spinlock to an rwlock: softlockup in cgroup_mkdir(), whose get_new_cssid() is waiting for the wlock, while there are 19 tasks using the rlock in css_get_next() to get on with their memcg workload (in an artificial test, admittedly). Yet lib/idr.c was made suitable for RCU way back: revert that commit, restoring ss->id_lock to a spinlock.

2012-03-22cpuset: mm: reduce large amounts of memory barrier related damage v3Mel Gorman
Commit c0ff7453bb5c ("cpuset,mm: fix no node to alloc memory when changing cpuset's mems") wins a super prize for the largest number of memory barriers entered into fast paths for one commit. [get|put]_mems_allowed is incredibly heavy with pairs of full memory barriers inserted into a number of hot paths. This was detected while investigating at large page allocator slowdown introduced some time after 2.6.32. The largest portion of this overhead was shown by oprofile to be at an mfence introduced by this commit into the page allocator hot path. For extra style points, the commit introduced the use of yield() in an implementation of what looks like a spinning mutex. This patch replaces the full memory barriers on both read and write sides with a sequence counter with just read barriers on the fast path side. This is much cheaper on some architectures, including x86. The main bulk of the patch is the retry logic if the nodemask changes in a manner that can cause a false failure. While updating the nodemask, a check is made to see if a false failure is a risk. If it is, the sequence number gets bumped and parallel allocators will briefly stall while the nodemask update takes place. In a page fault test microbenchmark, oprofile samples from __alloc_pages_nodemask went from 4.53% of all samples to 1.15%. The actual results were 3.3.0-rc3 3.3.0-rc3 rc3-vanilla nobarrier-v2r1 Clients 1 UserTime 0.07 ( 0.00%) 0.08 (-14.19%) Clients 2 UserTime 0.07 ( 0.00%) 0.07 ( 2.72%) Clients 4 UserTime 0.08 ( 0.00%) 0.07 ( 3.29%) Clients 1 SysTime 0.70 ( 0.00%) 0.65 ( 6.65%) Clients 2 SysTime 0.85 ( 0.00%) 0.82 ( 3.65%) Clients 4 SysTime 1.41 ( 0.00%) 1.41 ( 0.32%) Clients 1 WallTime 0.77 ( 0.00%) 0.74 ( 4.19%) Clients 2 WallTime 0.47 ( 0.00%) 0.45 ( 3.73%) Clients 4 WallTime 0.38 ( 0.00%) 0.37 ( 1.58%) Clients 1 Flt/sec/cpu 497620.28 ( 0.00%) 520294.53 ( 4.56%) Clients 2 Flt/sec/cpu 414639.05 ( 0.00%) 429882.01 ( 3.68%) Clients 4 Flt/sec/cpu 257959.16 ( 0.00%) 258761.48 ( 0.31%) Clients 1 Flt/sec 495161.39 ( 0.00%) 517292.87 ( 4.47%) Clients 2 Flt/sec 820325.95 ( 0.00%) 850289.77 ( 3.65%) Clients 4 Flt/sec 1020068.93 ( 0.00%) 1022674.06 ( 0.26%) MMTests Statistics: duration Sys Time Running Test (seconds) 135.68 132.17 User+Sys Time Running Test (seconds) 164.2 160.13 Total Elapsed Time (seconds) 123.46 120.87 The overall improvement is small but the System CPU time is much improved and roughly in correlation to what oprofile reported (these performance figures are without profiling so skew is expected). The actual number of page faults is noticeably improved. For benchmarks like kernel builds, the overall benefit is marginal but the system CPU time is slightly reduced. To test the actual bug the commit fixed I opened two terminals. The first ran within a cpuset and continually ran a small program that faulted 100M of anonymous data. In a second window, the nodemask of the cpuset was continually randomised in a loop. Without the commit, the program would fail every so often (usually within 10 seconds) and obviously with the commit everything worked fine. With this patch applied, it also worked fine so the fix should be functionally equivalent.

Pull irq_domain support for all architectures from Grant Likely: "Generialize powerpc's irq_host as irq_domain This branch takes the PowerPC irq_host infrastructure (reverse mapping from Linux IRQ numbers to hardware irq numbering), generalizes it, renames it to irq_domain, and makes it available to all architectures. Originally the plan has been to create an all-new irq_domain implementation which addresses some of the powerpc shortcomings such as not handling 1:1 mappings well, but doing that proved to be far more difficult and invasive than generalizing the working code and refactoring it in-place. So, this branch rips out the 'new' irq_domain and replaces it with the modified powerpc version (in a fully bisectable way of course). It converts all users over to the new API and makes irq_domain selectable on any architecture. No architecture is forced to enable irq_domain, but the infrastructure is required for doing OpenFirmware style irq translations. It will even work on SPARC even though SPARC has it's own mechanism for translating irqs at boot time. MIPS, microblaze, embedded x86 and c6x are converted too. The resulting irq_domain code is probably still too verbose and can be optimized more, but that can be done incrementally and is a task for follow-on patches." * tag 'irqdomain-for-linus' of git://git.secretlab.ca/git/linux-2.6: (31 commits) dt: fix twl4030 for non-dt compile on x86 mfd: twl-core: Add IRQ_DOMAIN dependency devicetree: Add empty of_platform_populate() for !CONFIG_OF_ADDRESS (sparc) irq_domain: Centralize definition of irq_dispose_mapping() irq_domain/mips: Allow irq_domain on MIPS irq_domain/x86: Convert x86 (embedded) to use common irq_domain ppc-6xx: fix build failure in flipper-pic.c and hlwd-pic.c irq_domain/microblaze: Convert microblaze to use irq_domains irq_domain/powerpc: Replace custom xlate functions with library functions irq_domain/powerpc: constify irq_domain_ops irq_domain/c6x: Use library of xlate functions irq_domain/c6x: constify irq_domain structures irq_domain/c6x: Convert c6x to use generic irq_domain support. irq_domain: constify irq_domain_ops irq_domain: Create common xlate functions that device drivers can use irq_domain: Remove irq_domain_add_simple() irq_domain: Remove 'new' irq_domain in favour of the ppc one mfd: twl-core.c: Fix the number of interrupts managed by twl4030 of/address: add empty static inlines for !CONFIG_OF irq_domain: Add support for base irq and hwirq in legacy mappings ...
