CURRENT_TIME macro is not appropriate for filesystems as it
doesn't use the right granularity for filesystem timestamps.
Use current_time() instead.
CURRENT_TIME is also not y2038 safe.
This is also in preparation for the patch that transitions
vfs timestamps to use 64 bit time and hence make them
y2038 safe. As part of the effort current_time() will be
extended to do range checks. Hence, it is necessary for all
file system timestamps to use current_time(). Also,
current_time() will be transitioned along with vfs to be
y2038 safe.
Note that whenever a single call to current_time() is used
to change timestamps in different inodes, it is because they
share the same time granularity.

Install the callbacks via the state machine and let the core invoke
the callbacks on the already online CPUs.
Since the online target runs always on the target CPU we can drop
smp_call_function_single(). The functions is invoked with interrupts off to
keep the old calling convention. If the maintainer things that this function
can be called with interrupts enabled then it can be removed :)

PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time
ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page
cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE.
This promise never materialized. And unlikely will.
We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to
PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether
PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case,
especially on the border between fs and mm.
Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much
breakage to be doable.
Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are
not.
The changes are pretty straight-forward:
- <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;
- <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;
- PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN};
- page_cache_get() -> get_page();
- page_cache_release() -> put_page();
This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using
script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files.
I've called spatch for them manually.
The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to
PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later.
There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll
fix them manually in a separate patch. Comments and documentation also
will be addressed with the separate patch.

sync_buffer() needs the mmap_sem for two distinct operations, both only
occurring upon user context switch handling:
1) Dealing with the exe_file.
2) Adding the dcookie data as we need to lookup the vma that
backs it. This is done via add_sample() and add_data().
This patch isolates 1), for it will no longer need the mmap_sem for
serialization. However, for now, make of the more standard
get_mm_exe_file(), requiring only holding the mmap_sem to read the value,
and relying on reference counting to make sure that the exe file won't
dissappear underneath us while doing the get dcookie.
As a consequence, for 2) we move the mmap_sem locking into where we really
need it, in lookup_dcookie(). The benefits are twofold: reduce mmap_sem
hold times, and cleaner code.

Subsystems that want to register CPU hotplug callbacks, as well as perform
initialization for the CPUs that are already online, often do it as shown
below:
get_online_cpus();
for_each_online_cpu(cpu)
init_cpu(cpu);
register_cpu_notifier(&foobar_cpu_notifier);
put_online_cpus();
This is wrong, since it is prone to ABBA deadlocks involving the
cpu_add_remove_lock and the cpu_hotplug.lock (when running concurrently
with CPU hotplug operations).
Instead, the correct and race-free way of performing the callback
registration is:
cpu_notifier_register_begin();
for_each_online_cpu(cpu)
init_cpu(cpu);
/* Note the use of the double underscored version of the API */
__register_cpu_notifier(&foobar_cpu_notifier);
cpu_notifier_register_done();
Fix the nmi-timer code in oprofile by using this latter form of callback
registration.

The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.
After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.
This removes all the remaining one-off uses of the __cpuinit macros
from all C files in the drivers/* directory.

Modify the request_module to prefix the file system type with "fs-"
and add aliases to all of the filesystems that can be built as modules
to match.
A common practice is to build all of the kernel code and leave code
that is not commonly needed as modules, with the result that many
users are exposed to any bug anywhere in the kernel.
Looking for filesystems with a fs- prefix limits the pool of possible
modules that can be loaded by mount to just filesystems trivially
making things safer with no real cost.
Using aliases means user space can control the policy of which
filesystem modules are auto-loaded by editing /etc/modprobe.d/*.conf
with blacklist and alias directives. Allowing simple, safe,
well understood work-arounds to known problematic software.
This also addresses a rare but unfortunate problem where the filesystem
name is not the same as it's module name and module auto-loading
would not work. While writing this patch I saw a handful of such
cases. The most significant being autofs that lives in the module
autofs4.
This is relevant to user namespaces because we can reach the request
module in get_fs_type() without having any special permissions, and
people get uncomfortable when a user specified string (in this case
the filesystem type) goes all of the way to request_module.
After having looked at this issue I don't think there is any
particular reason to perform any filtering or permission checks beyond
making it clear in the module request that we want a filesystem
module. The common pattern in the kernel is to call request_module()
without regards to the users permissions. In general all a filesystem
module does once loaded is call register_filesystem() and go to sleep.
Which means there is not much attack surface exposed by loading a
filesytem module unless the filesystem is mounted. In a user
namespace filesystems are not mounted unless .fs_flags = FS_USERNS_MOUNT,
which most filesystems do not set today.

Some security modules and oprofile still uses VM_EXECUTABLE for retrieving

directly. mm->exe_file is protected with mm->mmap_sem, so locking stays

Under certain workloads we see the following warnings:
WQ on CPU0, prefer CPU1
WQ on CPU0, prefer CPU2
WQ on CPU0, prefer CPU3
It warns the user that the wq to access a per-cpu buffers runs not on
the same cpu. This happens if the wq is rescheduled on a different cpu
than where the buffer is located. This was probably implemented to
detect performance issues. Not sure if there actually is one as the
buffers are copied to a single buffer anyway which should be the
actual bottleneck.
We wont change WQ implementation. Since a user can do nothing the
warning is pointless. Removing it.

The OProfile perf backend uses a static array to keep track of the
perf events on the system. When compiling with CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y
&& SMP, nr_cpumask_bits is not a compile-time constant and the build
will fail with:
oprofile_perf.c:28: error: variably modified 'perf_events' at file scope
This patch uses NR_CPUs instead of nr_cpumask_bits for the array
initialisation. If this causes space problems in the future, we can
always move to dynamic allocation for the events array.

Many users of debugfs copy the implementation of default_open() when
they want to support a custom read/write function op. This leads to a

If oprofilefs_ulong_from_user() is called with count equals
zero, *val remains unchanged. Depending on the implementation it
might be uninitialized.
Change oprofilefs_ulong_from_user()'s interface to return count

zero which avoids using *val uninitialized. Fixing all users of
oprofilefs_ulong_ from_user().
This follows write syscall implementation when count is zero:

returned without causing any other effect." (man 2 write)

The legacy x86 nmi watchdog code was removed with the implementation
of the perf based nmi watchdog. This broke Oprofile's nmi timer
mode. To run nmi timer mode we relied on a continuous ticking nmi
source which the nmi watchdog provided. The nmi tick was no longer
available and current watchdog can not be used anymore since it runs
with very long periods in the range of seconds. This patch
reimplements the nmi timer mode using a perf counter nmi source.

The oprofilefs_lock can be taken in atomic context (in profiling
interrupts) and therefore cannot cannot be preempted on -rt -
annotate it.
In mainline this change documents the low level nature of
the lock - otherwise there's no functional difference. Lockdep
and Sparse checking will work as usual.

The perf_event overflow handler does not receive any caller-derived
argument, so many callers need to resort to looking up the perf_event
in their local data structure. This is ugly and doesn't scale if a
single callback services many perf_events.
Fix by adding a context parameter to perf_event_create_kernel_counter()
(and derived hardware breakpoints APIs) and storing it in the perf_event.
The field can be accessed from the callback as event->overflow_handler_context.
All callers are updated.

This fixes the A->B/B->A locking dependency, see the warning below.
The function task_exit_notify() is called with (task_exit_notifier)
.rwsem set and then calls sync_buffer() which locks buffer_mutex. In
sync_start() the buffer_mutex was set to prevent notifier functions to
be started before sync_start() is finished. But when registering the
notifier, (task_exit_notifier).rwsem is locked too, but now in
different order than in sync_buffer(). In theory this causes a locking
dependency, what does not occur in practice since task_exit_notify()
is always called after the notifier is registered which means the lock
is already released.
However, after checking the notifier functions it turned out the
buffer_mutex in sync_start() is unnecessary. This is because
sync_buffer() may be called from the notifiers even if sync_start()
did not finish yet, the buffers are already allocated but empty. No
need to protect this with the mutex.
So we fix this theoretical locking dependency by removing buffer_mutex
in sync_start(). This is similar to the implementation before commit:
750d857 oprofile: fix crash when accessing freed task structs
which introduced the locking dependency.

This patch is a rework of the hwsampler oprofile implementation that
has been applied recently. Now there are less non-architectural
changes. The only changes are:
* introduction of oprofile_add_ext_hw_sample(), and
* removal of section attributes of oprofile_timer_init/_exit().
To setup hwsampler for oprofile we need to modify start()/stop()
callbacks and additional hwsampler control files in oprofilefs. We do
not reinitialize the timer or hwsampler mode by restarting calling
init/exit() anymore, instead hwsampler_running is used to switch the
mode directly in oprofile_hwsampler_start/_stop(). For locking reasons
there is also hwsampler_file that reflects the value in oprofilefs.
The overall diffstat of the oprofile s390 hwsampler implemenation
shows the low impact to non-architectural code:

OProfile is enhanced to export all files for controlling System z's
hardware sampling, and to invoke hwsampler exported functions to
initialize and use System z's hardware sampling.
The patch invokes hwsampler_setup() during oprofile init and exports
following hwsampler files under oprofilefs if hwsampler's setup
succeeded:
A new directory for hardware sampling based files
/dev/oprofile/hwsampling/
The userland daemon must explicitly write to the following files
to disable (or enable) hardware based sampling
/dev/oprofile/hwsampling/hwsampler
to modify the actual sampling rate
/dev/oprofile/hwsampling/hw_interval
to modify the amount of sampling memory (measured in 4K pages)
/dev/oprofile/hwsampling/hw_sdbt_blocks
The following files are read only and show
the possible minimum sampling rate
/dev/oprofile/hwsampling/hw_min_interval
the possible maximum sampling rate
/dev/oprofile/hwsampling/hw_max_interval
The patch splits the oprofile_timer_[init/exit] function so that it
can be also called through user context (oprofilefs) to avoid kernel
oops.

(oprofile_add_ext_hw_sample)
This patch introduces a new oprofile sample add function
(oprofile_add_ext_hw_sample) that can also take task_struct as an
argument, which is used by the hwsampler kernel module when copying
hardware samples to OProfile buffers.
Applied with following changes:
* removed #include <linux/module.h>
* whitespace changes
* removed conditional compilation (CONFIG_HAVE_HWSAMPLER)
* modified order of functions
* fix missing function definition in header file

flush_scheduled_work() is deprecated and scheduled to be removed.
sync_stop() currently cancels cpu_buffer works inside buffer_mutex and
flushes the system workqueue outside. Instead, split end_cpu_work()
into two parts - stopping further work enqueues and flushing works -
and do the former inside buffer_mutex and latter outside.

The kernel build with CONFIG_OPROFILE and CPU_HOTPLUG enabled.
The oprofile is initialised using system timer in absence of hardware
counters supports. Oprofile isn't started from userland.
In this setup while doing a CPU offline the kernel hangs in infinite
for loop inside lock_hrtimer_base() function
This happens because as part of oprofile_cpu_notify(, it tries to
stop an hrtimer which was never started. These per-cpu hrtimers
are started when the oprfile is started.
echo 1 > /dev/oprofile/enable
This problem also existwhen the cpu is booted with maxcpus parameter
set. When bringing the remaining cpus online the timers are started
even if oprofile is not yet enabled.
This patch fix this issue by adding a state variable so that
these hrtimer start/stop is only attempted when oprofile is
started
For stable kernels v2.6.35.y and v2.6.36.y.
