010cfac4ca cpuset: avoid changing cpuset's mems when errno returned
When writing to cpuset.mems, cpuset has to update its mems_allowed before
calling update_tasks_nodemask(), but this function might return -ENOMEM.

To avoid this rare case, we allocate the memory before changing
mems_allowed, and then pass to update_tasks_nodemask().  Similar to what
update_cpumask() does.

3b6766fe66 cpuset: rewrite update_tasks_nodemask()
This patch uses cgroup_scan_tasks() to rebind tasks' vmas to new cpuset's
mems_allowed.

Not only simplify the code largely, but also avoid allocating an array to
hold mm pointers of all the tasks in the cpuset.  This array can be big
(size > PAGESIZE) if we have lots of tasks in that cpuset, thus has a
chance to fail the allocation when under memory stress.

0b7f569e45 memcg: fix OOM killer under memcg
This patch tries to fix OOM Killer problems caused by hierarchy.
Now, memcg itself has OOM KILL function (in oom_kill.c) and tries to
kill a task in memcg.

But, when hierarchy is used, it's broken and correct task cannot
be killed. For example, in following cgroup

	/groupA/	hierarchy=1, limit=1G,
		01	nolimit
		02	nolimit
All tasks' memory usage under /groupA, /groupA/01, groupA/02 is limited to
groupA's 1Gbytes but OOM Killer just kills tasks in groupA.

This patch provides makes the bad process be selected from all tasks
under hierarchy. BTW, currently, oom_jiffies is updated against groupA
in above case. oom_jiffies of tree should be updated.

To see how oom_jiffies is used, please check mem_cgroup_oom_called()
callers.

0670e08bdf cgroups: don't change release_agent when remount failed
Remount can fail in either case:
  - wrong mount options is specified, or option 'noprefix' is changed.
  - a to-be-added subsys is already mounted/active.

When using remount to change 'release_agent', for the above former failure
case, remount will return errno with release_agent unchanged, but for the
latter case, remount will return EBUSY with relase_agent changed, which is
unexpected I think:

 # mount -t cgroup -o cpu xxx /cgrp1
 # mount -t cgroup -o cpuset,release_agent=agent1 yyy /cgrp2
 # cat /cgrp2/release_agent
 agent1
 # mount -t cgroup -o remount,cpuset,noprefix,release_agent=agent2 yyy /cgrp2
 mount: /cgrp2 not mounted already, or bad option
 # cat /cgrp2/release_agent
 agent1     <-- ok
 # mount -t cgroup -o remount,cpu,cpuset,release_agent=agent2 yyy /cgrp2
 mount: /cgrp2 is busy
 # cat /cgrp2/release_agent
 agent2     <-- unexpected!

099fca3225 cgroups: show correct file mode
We have some read-only files and write-only files, but currently they are
all set to 0644, which is counter-intuitive and cause trouble for some
cgroup tools like libcgroup.

This patch adds 'mode' to struct cftype to allow cgroup subsys to set it's
own files' file mode, and for the most cases cft->mode can be default to 0
and cgroup will figure out proper mode.

ec64f51545 cgroup: fix frequent -EBUSY at rmdir
In following situation, with memory subsystem,

	/groupA use_hierarchy==1
		/01 some tasks
		/02 some tasks
		/03 some tasks
		/04 empty

When tasks under 01/02/03 hit limit on /groupA, hierarchical reclaim
is triggered and the kernel walks tree under groupA. In this case,
rmdir /groupA/04 fails with -EBUSY frequently because of temporal
refcnt from the kernel.

In general. cgroup can be rmdir'd if there are no children groups and
no tasks. Frequent fails of rmdir() is not useful to users.
(And the reason for -EBUSY is unknown to users.....in most cases)

This patch tries to modify above behavior, by
	- retries if css_refcnt is got by someone.
	- add "return value" to pre_destroy() and allows subsystem to
	  say "we're really busy!"

38460b48d0 cgroup: CSS ID support
Patch for Per-CSS(Cgroup Subsys State) ID and private hierarchy code.

This patch attaches unique ID to each css and provides following.

 - css_lookup(subsys, id)
   returns pointer to struct cgroup_subysys_state of id.
 - css_get_next(subsys, id, rootid, depth, foundid)
   returns the next css under "root" by scanning

When cgroup_subsys->use_id is set, an id for css is maintained.

The cgroup framework only parepares
	- css_id of root css for subsys
	- id is automatically attached at creation of css.
	- id is *not* freed automatically. Because the cgroup framework
	  don't know lifetime of cgroup_subsys_state.
	  free_css_id() function is provided. This must be called by subsys.

There are several reasons to develop this.
	- Saving space .... For example, memcg's swap_cgroup is array of
	  pointers to cgroup. But it is not necessary to be very fast.
	  By replacing pointers(8bytes per ent) to ID (2byes per ent), we can
	  reduce much amount of memory usage.

	- Scanning without lock.
	  CSS_ID provides "scan id under this ROOT" function. By this, scanning
	  css under root can be written without locks.
	  ex)
	  do {
		rcu_read_lock();
		next = cgroup_get_next(subsys, id, root, &found);
		/* check sanity of next here */
		css_tryget();
		rcu_read_unlock();
		id = found + 1
	 } while(...)

Characteristics:
	- Each css has unique ID under subsys.
	- Lifetime of ID is controlled by subsys.
	- css ID contains "ID" and "Depth in hierarchy" and stack of hierarchy
	- Allowed ID is 1-65535, ID 0 is UNUSED ID.

Design Choices:
	- scan-by-ID v.s. scan-by-tree-walk.
	  As /proc's pid scan does, scan-by-ID is robust when scanning is done
	  by following kind of routine.
	  scan -> rest a while(release a lock) -> conitunue from interrupted
	  memcg's hierarchical reclaim does this.

	- When subsys->use_id is set, # of css in the system is limited to
	  65535.

313e924c08 cgroups: relax ns_can_attach checks to allow attaching to grandchild cgroups
The ns_proxy cgroup allows moving processes to child cgroups only one
level deep at a time.  This commit relaxes this restriction and makes it
possible to attach tasks directly to grandchild cgroups, e.g.:

($pid is in the root cgroup)
echo $pid > /cgroup/CG1/CG2/tasks

Previously this operation would fail with -EPERM and would have to be
performed as two steps:
echo $pid > /cgroup/CG1/tasks
echo $pid > /cgroup/CG1/CG2/tasks

Also, the target cgroup no longer needs to be empty to move a task there.

33e5d76979 nommu: fix a number of issues with the per-MM VMA patch
Fix a number of issues with the per-MM VMA patch:

 (1) Make mmap_pages_allocated an atomic_long_t, just in case this is used on
     a NOMMU system with more than 2G pages.  Makes no difference on a 32-bit
     system.

 (2) Report vma->vm_pgoff * PAGE_SIZE as a 64-bit value, not a 32-bit value,
     lest it overflow.

 (3) Move the allocation of the vm_area_struct slab back for fork.c.

 (4) Use KMEM_CACHE() for both vm_area_struct and vm_region slabs.

 (5) Use BUG_ON() rather than if () BUG().

 (6) Make the default validate_nommu_regions() a static inline rather than a
     #define.

 (7) Make free_page_series()'s objection to pages with a refcount != 1 more
     informative.

 (8) Adjust the __put_nommu_region() banner comment to indicate that the
     semaphore must be held for writing.

 (9) Limit the number of warnings about munmaps of non-mmapped regions.

4ede816ac3 epoll keyed wakeups: add __wake_up_locked_key() and __wake_up_sync_key()
This patchset introduces wakeup hints for some of the most popular (from
epoll POV) devices, so that epoll code can avoid spurious wakeups on its
waiters.

The problem with epoll is that the callback-based wakeups do not, ATM,
carry any information about the events the wakeup is related to.  So the
only choice epoll has (not being able to call f_op->poll() from inside the
callback), is to add the file* to a ready-list and resolve the real events
later on, at epoll_wait() (or its own f_op->poll()) time.  This can cause
spurious wakeups, since the wake_up() itself might be for an event the
caller is not interested into.

The rate of these spurious wakeup can be pretty high in case of many
network sockets being monitored.

By allowing devices to report the events the wakeups refer to (at least
the two major classes - POLLIN/POLLOUT), we are able to spare useless
wakeups by proper handling inside the epoll's poll callback.

Epoll will have in any case to call f_op->poll() on the file* later on,
since the change to be done in order to have the full event set sent via
wakeup, is too invasive for the way our f_op->poll() system works (the
full event set is calculated inside the poll function - there are too many
of them to even start thinking the change - also poll/select would need
change too).

Epoll is changed in a way that both devices which send event hints, and
the ones that don't, are correctly handled.  The former will gain some
efficiency though.

As a general rule for devices, would be to add an event mask by using
key-aware wakeup macros, when making up poll wait queues.  I tested it
(together with the epoll's poll fix patch Andrew has in -mm) and wakeups
for the supported devices are correctly filtered.

Test program available here:

http://www.xmailserver.org/epoll_test.c

This patch:

Nothing revolutionary here.  Just using the available "key" that our
wakeup core already support.  The __wake_up_locked_key() was no brainer,
since both __wake_up_locked() and __wake_up_locked_key() are thin wrappers
around __wake_up_common().

The __wake_up_sync() function had a body, so the choice was between
borrowing the body for __wake_up_sync_key() and calling it from
__wake_up_sync(), or make an inline and calling it from both.  I chose the
former since in most archs it all resolves to "mov $0, REG; jmp ADDR".

704503d836 mm: fix proc_dointvec_userhz_jiffies "breakage"
Addresses http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9838

On i386, HZ=1000, jiffies_to_clock_t() converts time in a somewhat strange
way from the user's point of view:

	# echo 500 >/proc/sys/vm/dirty_writeback_centisecs
	# cat /proc/sys/vm/dirty_writeback_centisecs
	499

So, we have 5000 jiffies converted to only 499 clock ticks and reported
back.

TICK_NSEC = 999848
ACTHZ = 256039

Keeping in-kernel variable in units passed from userspace will fix issue
of course, but this probably won't be right for every sysctl.

ef12fefabf cpuacct: add per-cgroup utime/stime statistics
Add per-cgroup cpuacct controller statistics like the system and user
time consumed by the group of tasks.

Changelog:

v7
- Changed the name of the statistic from utime to user and from stime to
  system so that in future we could easily add other statistics like irq,
  softirq, steal times etc easily.

v6
- Fixed a bug in the error path of cpuacct_create() (pointed by Li Zefan).

v5
- In cpuacct_stats_show(), use cputime64_to_clock_t() since we are
  operating on a 64bit variable here.

v4

c5f8d99585 posixtimers, sched: Fix posix clock monotonicity
Impact: Regression fix (against clock_gettime() backwarding bug)

This patch re-introduces a couple of functions, task_sched_runtime
and thread_group_sched_runtime, which was once removed at the
time of 2.6.28-rc1.

These functions protect the sampling of thread/process clock with
rq lock.  This rq lock is required not to update rq->clock during
the sampling.

i.e.
  The clock_gettime() may return
   ((accounted runtime before update) + (delta after update))
  that is less than what it should be.

v2 -> v3:
	- Rename static helper function __task_delta_exec()
	  to do_task_delta_exec() since -tip tree already has
	  a __task_delta_exec() of different version.

v1 -> v2:
	- Revises comments of function and patch description.
	- Add note about accuracy of thread group's runtime.

2e572895bf ring-buffer: do not remove reader page from list on ring buffer free
Impact: prevent possible memory leak

The reader page of the ring buffer is special. Although it points
into the ring buffer, it is not part of the actual buffer. It is
a page used by the reader to swap with a page in the ring buffer.
Once the swap is made, the new reader page is again outside the
buffer.

Even though the reader page points into the buffer, it is really
pointing to residual data. Note, this data is used by the reader.

              reader page
                  |
                  v

     +----------|   |----------+
     |          +---+          |
     v                         v
   +---+        +---+        +---+
-->|   |------->|   |------->|   |--->
<--|   |<-------|   |<-------|   |<---
   +---+        +---+        +---+

     ^            ^            ^
      \           |            /
       ------- Buffer---------

If we perform a list_del_init() on the reader page we will actually remove
the last page the reader swapped with and not the reader page itself.
This will cause that page to not be freed, and thus is a memory leak.

Luckily, the only user of the ring buffer so far is ftrace. And ftrace
will not free its ring buffer after it allocates it. There is no current
possible memory leak. But once there are other users, or if ftrace
dynamically creates and frees its ring buffer, then this would be a
memory leak.

This patch fixes the leak for future cases.

There should be nothing to prevent a tracer from unregistering a

a18b83b7ef cpuacct: make cpuacct hierarchy walk in cpuacct_charge() safe when rcupreempt is used -v2
Impact: fix cgroups race under rcu-preempt

cpuacct_charge() obtains task's ca and does a hierarchy walk upwards.
This can race with the task's movement between cgroups. This race
can cause an access to freed ca pointer in cpuacct_charge() or access
to invalid cgroups pointer of the task. This will not happen with rcu or
tree rcu as cpuacct_charge() is called with preemption disabled. However if
rcupreempt is used, the race is seen. Thanks to Li Zefan for explaining this.

Fix this race by explicitly protecting ca and the hierarchy walk with
rcu_read_lock().

Changes for v2:

 - Update patch descrition (as per Li Zefan's review comments).

 - Remove comments in cpuacct_charge() which explained why rcu_read_lock()
   was needed (as per Peter Zijlstra's review comments).

17ba97e347 blktrace: fix blk_probes_ref chaos
Impact: fix mixed ioctl and ftrace-plugin blktrace use refcount bugs

ioctl-based blktrace allocates bt and registers tracepoints when
ioctl(BLKTRACESETUP), and do all cleanups when ioctl(BLKTRACETEARDOWN).

while ftrace-based blktrace allocates/frees bt when:
  # echo 1/0 > /sys/block/sda/sda1/trace/enable

and registers/unregisters tracepoints when:
  # echo blk/nop > /debugfs/tracing/current_tracer
or
  # echo 1/0 > /debugfs/tracing/tracing_enable

The separatation of allocation and registeration causes 2 problems:

  1. current user-space blktrace still calls ioctl(TEARDOWN) when
     ioctl(SETUP) failed:
       # echo 1 > /sys/block/sda/sda1/trace/enable
       # blktrace /dev/sda
         BLKTRACESETUP: Device or resource busy
         ^C
     and now blk_probes_ref == -1

  2. Another way to make blk_probes_ref == -1:
     # plugin sdb && mount sdb1
     # echo 1 > /sys/block/sdb/sdb1/trace/enable
     # remove sdb

This patch does the allocation and registeration when writing
sdaX/trace/enable.

timers to softirq context.

This patch fixes it by introducing a __hrtimer_start_range_ns()
method that will not use raise_softirq_irqoff() but
__raise_softirq_irqoff() which avoids the wakeup.

It then also changes schedule() to check for pending softirqs and
do the wakeup then, I'm not quite sure I like this last bit, nor
am I convinced its really needed.

e91defa26c module: don't use stop_machine on module load
Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> discovered that boot times are slowed
by about half a second because all the stop_machine_create() calls,
and he only probes about 40 modules (I have 125 loaded on this laptop).

We only do stop_machine_create() so we can unlink the module if
something goes wrong, but it's overkill (and buggy anyway: if
stop_machine_create() fails we still call stop_machine_destroy()).

Since we are only protecting against kallsyms (esp. oops) walking the
list, synchronize_sched() is sufficient (synchronize_rcu() is probably
sufficient, but we're not in a hurry).

Kay says of this patch:
	... no module takes more than 40 millisecs to link now, most of
	them are between 3 and 8 millisecs.

	That looks very different to the numbers without this patch
	and the otherwise same setup, where we get heavy noise in the
	traces and many delays of up to 200 millisecs until linking,
	most of them taking 30+ millisecs.

acae051565 module: create a request_module_nowait()
There seems to be a common pattern in the kernel where drivers want to
call request_module() from inside a module_init() function. Currently
this would deadlock.

As a result, several drivers go through hoops like scheduling things via
kevent, or creating custom work queues (because kevent can deadlock on them).

This patch changes this to use a request_module_nowait() function macro instead,
which just fires the modprobe off but doesn't wait for it, and thus avoids the
original deadlock entirely.

On my laptop this already results in one less kernel thread running..

8c8ef42aee module: include other structures in module version check
With CONFIG_MODVERSIONS, we version 'struct module' using a dummy
export, but other things matter too:

1) 'struct modversion_info' determines the layout of the __versions section,
2) 'struct kernel_param' determines the layout of the __params section,
3) 'struct kernel_symbol' determines __ksymtab*.
4) 'struct marker' determines __markers.
5) 'struct tracepoint' determines __tracepoints.

So we rename 'struct_module' to 'module_layout' and include these in
the signature.  Now it's general we can add others later on without
confusion.

9cb610d8e3 module: remove the SHF_ALLOC flag on the __versions section.
Impact: reduce kernel memory usage

This patch just takes off the SHF_ALLOC flag on __versions so we don't

ksplice wants to know the bounds of a module, not just the module text.

It makes sense to have __module_address.  We then implement

Also, add proper kerneldoc for them all.

e180a6b775 param: fix charp parameters set via sysfs
Impact: fix crash on reading from /sys/module/.../ieee80211_default_rc_algo

The module_param type "charp" simply sets a char * pointer in the
module to the parameter in the commandline string: this is why we keep
the (mangled) module command line around.  But when set via sysfs (as
about 11 charp parameters can be) this memory is freed on the way
out of the write().  Future reads hit random mem.

So we kstrdup instead: we have to check we're not in early commandline
parsing, and we have to note when we've used it so we can reliably
kfree the parameter when it's next overwritten, and also on module
unload.

(Thanks to Randy Dunlap for CONFIG_SYSFS=n fixes)

f69b17d7e7 rcu: rcu_barrier VS cpu_hotplug: Ensure callbacks in dead cpu are migrated to online cpu
cpu hotplug may happen asynchronously, some rcu callbacks are maybe
still on dead cpu, rcu_barrier() also needs to wait for these rcu
callbacks to complete, so we must ensure callbacks in dead cpu are
migrated to online cpu.

Paul E. McKenney's review:

  Good stuff, Lai!!!  Simpler than any of the approaches that I was
  considering, and, better yet, independent of the underlying RCU
  implementation!!!

  I was initially worried that wake_up() might wake only one of two
  possible wait_event()s, namely rcu_barrier() and the CPU_POST_DEAD code,
  but the fact that wait_event() clears WQ_FLAG_EXCLUSIVE avoids that issue.
  I was also worried about the fact that different RCU implementations have
  different mappings of call_rcu(), call_rcu_bh(), and call_rcu_sched(), but
  this is OK as well because we just get an extra (harmless) callback in the
  case that they map together (for example, Classic RCU has call_rcu_sched()
  mapping to call_rcu()).

  Overlap of CPU-hotplug operations is prevented by cpu_add_remove_lock,
  and any stray callbacks that arrive (for example, from irq handlers
  running on the dying CPU) either are ahead of the CPU_DYING callbacks on
  the one hand (and thus accounted for), or happened after the rcu_barrier()
  started on the other (and thus don't need to be accounted for).

Use the functions introduced in by the previous patch,
suspend_device_irqs(), resume_device_irqs() and check_wakeup_irqs(),
to rework the handling of interrupts during suspend (hibernation) and
resume.  Namely, interrupts will only be disabled on the CPU right
before suspending sysdevs, while device drivers will be prevented
from receiving interrupts, with the help of the new helper function,
before their "late" suspend callbacks run (and analogously during
resume).

In addition, since the device interrups are now disabled before the
CPU has turned all interrupts off and the CPU will ACK the interrupts
setting the IRQ_PENDING bit for them, check in sysdev_suspend() if
any wake-up interrupts are pending and abort suspend if that's the
case.

0a0c5168df PM: Introduce functions for suspending and resuming device interrupts
Introduce helper functions allowing us to prevent device drivers from
getting any interrupts (without disabling interrupts on the CPU)
during suspend (or hibernation) and to make them start to receive
interrupts again during the subsequent resume.  These functions make it
possible to keep timer interrupts enabled while the "late" suspend and
"early" resume callbacks provided by device drivers are being
executed.  In turn, this allows device drivers' "late" suspend and
"early" resume callbacks to sleep, execute ACPI callbacks etc.

The functions introduced here will be used to rework the handling of
interrupts during suspend (hibernation) and resume.  Namely,
interrupts will only be disabled on the CPU right before suspending
sysdevs, while device drivers will be prevented from receiving
interrupts, with the help of the new helper function, before their
"late" suspend callbacks run (and analogously during resume).

1a2142afa5 cpumask: remove dangerous CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR, &CPU_MASK_ALL
Impact: cleanup

(Thanks to Al Viro for reminding me of this, via Ingo)

CPU_MASK_ALL is the (deprecated) "all bits set" cpumask, defined as so:

	#define CPU_MASK_ALL (cpumask_t) { { ... } }

Taking the address of such a temporary is questionable at best,
unfortunately 321a8e9d (cpumask: add CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR macro) added
CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR:

	#define CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR (&CPU_MASK_ALL)

Which formalizes this practice.  One day gcc could bite us over this
usage (though we seem to have gotten away with it so far).

So replace everywhere which used &CPU_MASK_ALL or CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR
with the modern "cpu_all_mask" (a real const struct cpumask *).

a3ec947c85 vfs: simple_set_mnt() should return void
simple_set_mnt() is defined as returning 'int' but always returns 0.
Callers assume simple_set_mnt() never fails and don't properly cleanup if
it were to _ever_ fail.  For instance, get_sb_single() and get_sb_nodev()
should:

        up_write(sb->s_unmount);
        deactivate_super(sb);

if simple_set_mnt() fails.

Since simple_set_mnt() never fails, would be cleaner if it did not
return anything.

Impact: cleanup, micro-optimization

We don't need to perform power_savings balance if either the

SD_POWERSAVINGS_BALANCE flag set.

Currently, we check for these conditions multiple number of
times, even though these variables don't change over the scope
of find_busiest_group().

Check once, and store the value in the already exiting
"power_savings_balance" variable.

e9d376f0fa dynamic debug: combine dprintk and dynamic printk
This patch combines Greg Bank's dprintk() work with the existing dynamic
printk patchset, we are now calling it 'dynamic debug'.

The new feature of this patchset is a richer /debugfs control file interface,
(an example output from my system is at the bottom), which allows fined grained
control over the the debug output. The output can be controlled by function,
file, module, format string, and line number.

for example, enabled all debug messages in module 'nf_conntrack':

Impact: cleanup, new schedstat ABI

Since they are used on in statistics and are always set to zero, the
following fields from struct rq have been removed: yld_exp_empty,
yld_act_empty and yld_both_empty.

Both Sched Debug and SCHEDSTAT_VERSION versions has also been
incremented since ABIs have been changed.

The schedtop tool has been updated to properly handle new version of

8aef2d2856 function-graph: ignore times across schedule

The current method of function graph tracing does not take into
account the time spent when a task is not running. This shows functions
that call schedule have increased costs:

 3) + 18.664 us   |      }
 ------------------------------------------
 3)    <idle>-0    =>  kblockd-123

 3)               |      finish_task_switch() {

 3) ! 2959.433 us |    }

This patch uses the tracepoint in the scheduling context switch to
account for time that has elapsed while a task is scheduled out.
Now we see:

 ------------------------------------------
 3)    <idle>-0    =>  edac-po-1067

098335215a tracing: fix memory leak in trace_stat
If the function profiler does not have any items recorded and one were
to cat the function stat file, the kernel would take a BUG with a NULL
pointer dereference.

Looking further into this, I found that returning NULL from stat_start
did not stop the stat logic, and would later call stat_next. This breaks
from the way seq_file works, so I looked into fixing the stat code.

This is where I noticed that the last next_entry is never freed.
It is allocated, and if the stat_next returns NULL, the code breaks out
of the loop, unlocks the mutex and exits. We never link the next_entry
nor do we free it. Thus it is a real memory leak.

This patch rearranges the code a bit to not only fix the memory leak,
but also to act more like seq_file where nothing is printed if there
is nothing to print. That is, stat_start returns NULL.

3aa551c9b4 genirq: add threaded interrupt handler support
Add support for threaded interrupt handlers:

A device driver can request that its main interrupt handler runs in a
thread. To achive this the device driver requests the interrupt with
request_threaded_irq() and provides additionally to the handler a
thread function. The handler function is called in hard interrupt
context and needs to check whether the interrupt originated from the
device. If the interrupt originated from the device then the handler
can either return IRQ_HANDLED or IRQ_WAKE_THREAD. IRQ_HANDLED is
returned when no further action is required. IRQ_WAKE_THREAD causes
the genirq code to invoke the threaded (main) handler. When
IRQ_WAKE_THREAD is returned handler must have disabled the interrupt
on the device level. This is mandatory for shared interrupt handlers,
but we need to do it as well for obscure x86 hardware where disabling
an interrupt on the IO_APIC level redirects the interrupt to the
legacy PIC interrupt lines.

1618536961 tracing/function-graph-tracer: fix functions call traces imbalance
Impact: fix traces output

Sometimes one can observe an imbalance in the traces between function
calls and function return traces:

func1() {
    }
}

The curly brace inside func1() is the return of another function nested
inside func1. The return trace have been inserted in the buffer but not
the entry.
We are storing a return address on the function traces stack while we
haven't inserted its entry on the buffer, hence the imbalance on the
traces.

This is because the tracers doesn't check all failures that can happen
on buffer insertion.

This patch reports the tracing recursion failures and the ring buffer
failures. In such cases, we now restore the original return address for
the function, giving up its return trace.

45b9560895 tracing: Fix TRACING_SUPPORT dependency for PPC32
commit 40ada30f96 ("tracing: clean up menu"),
despite the "clean up" in its purpose, introduced a behavioural
change for Kconfig symbols: we no longer able to select tracing
support on PPC32 (because IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT isn't yet implemented).

The IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT is not mandatory for most tracers, tracing core
has a special case for platforms w/o irqflags (which, by the way, has
become useless as of the commit above).

Though according to Ingo Molnar, there was periodic build failures on
weird, unmaintained architectures that had no irqflags-tracing support
and hence didn't know the raw_irqs_save/restore primitives. Thus we'd
better not enable irqflags-less tracing for all architectures.

This patch restores the old behaviour for PPC32, and thus brings the
tracing back. Other architectures can either add themselves to the
exception list or (better) implement TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT.

37bebc70d7 posix timers: fix RLIMIT_CPU && fork()
See http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12911

copy_signal() copies signal->rlim, but RLIMIT_CPU is "lost". Because
posix_cpu_timers_init_group() sets cputime_expires.prof_exp = 0 and thus
fastpath_timer_check() returns false unless we have other cpu timers.

This is the minimal fix for 2.6.29 (tested) and 2.6.28. The patch is not
optimal, we need further cleanups here. With this patch update_rlimit_cpu()
is not really needed, but I don't think it should be removed.

The proper fix (I think) is:

	- set_process_cpu_timer() should just start the cputimer->running
	  logic (it does), no need to change cputime_expires.xxx_exp

	- posix_cpu_timers_init_group() should set ->running when needed

	- fastpath_timer_check() can check ->running instead of
	  task_cputime_zero(signal->cputime_expires)

53da1d9456 fix ptrace slowness
This patch fixes bug #12208:

  Bug-Entry       : http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12208
  Subject         : uml is very slow on 2.6.28 host

This turned out to be not a scheduler regression, but an already
existing problem in ptrace being triggered by subtle scheduler
changes.

The problem is this:

 - task A is ptracing task B
 - task B stops on a trace event
 - task A is woken up and preempts task B
 - task A calls ptrace on task B, which does ptrace_check_attach()
 - this calls wait_task_inactive(), which sees that task B is still on the runq
 - task A goes to sleep for a jiffy
 - ...

Since UML does lots of the above sequences, those jiffies quickly add
up to make it slow as hell.

This patch solves this by not rescheduling in read_unlock() after
ptrace_stop() has woken up the tracer.

3e1f60b80c tracing/ftrace: check if debugfs is registered before creating files
Impact: fix a crash with ftrace={nop,boot} parameter

If the nop or initcall tracers are launched as boot tracers,
they will attempt to create their option directory and files.
But these tracers are registered very early and then assigned
as "boot tracers" very early if asked to.

Since they do this before debugfs has been registered (core initcall),
a crash is triggered.

Another early tracers could also come later. So we fix it by
checking if debugfs is initialized before creating the root
tracing directory.

b118415bfa tracing/events: don't discard an event after commit
When we want to filter an event, the filter test is done after
the event is commited to the ring-buffer to be discarded later if
needed.

But a reader could be reading this event while we are trying to discard
it. Other kind of racy events can even happen because the event is

What we want is to discard the event before committing it.

7e6ea92df3 tracing/ftrace: make nop-tracer use polling wait for events on pipe
Impact: display events when they arrive

Now that the events don't use wake_up() anymore, we need the nop
tracer to poll waiting for events on the pipe. Especially because
nop is useful to look at orphan traces types (traces types that
don't rely on specific tracers) because it doesn't produce traces
itself.

And unlike other tracers that trigger specific traces periodically,
nop triggers no traces by itself that can wake him.

07edf71213 tracing/events: don't use wake up for events
Impact: fix hard-lockup with sched switch events

Some ftrace events, such as sched wakeup, can be traced
while the runqueue lock is hold. Since they are using
trace_current_buffer_unlock_commit(), they call wake_up()
which can try to grab the runqueue lock too, resulting in
a deadlock.

Now for all event, we call a new helper:
trace_nowake_buffer_unlock_commit() which do pretty the same than
trace_current_buffer_unlock_commit() except than it doesn't call
trace_wake_up().

cfb180f3e7 tracing: add per-subsystem filtering
This patch adds per-subsystem filtering to the event tracing subsystem.

It adds a 'filter' debugfs file to each subsystem directory.  This file
can be written to to set filters; reading from it will display the
current set of filters set for that subsystem.

Basically what it does is propagate the filter down to each event
contained in the subsystem.  If a particular event doesn't have a field
with the name specified in the filter, it simply doesn't get set for
that event.  You can verify whether or not the filter was set for a
particular event by looking at the filter file for that event.

As with per-event filters, compound expressions are supported, echoing
'0' to the subsystem's filter file clears all filters in the subsystem,
etc.

7ce7e42499 tracing: add per-event filtering
This patch adds per-event filtering to the event tracing subsystem.

It adds a 'filter' debugfs file to each event directory.  This file can
be written to to set filters; reading from it will display the current
set of filters set for that event.

Basically, any field listed in the 'format' file for an event can be
filtered on (including strings, but not yet other array types) using
either matching ('==') or non-matching ('!=') 'predicates'.  A
'predicate' can be either a single expression:

 # echo pid != 0 > filter

 # cat filter
 pid != 0

or a compound expression of up to 8 sub-expressions combined using '&&'
or '||':

 # echo comm == Xorg > filter
 # echo "&& sig != 29" > filter

 # cat filter
 comm == Xorg
 && sig != 29

Only events having field values matching an expression will be available
in the trace output; non-matching events are discarded.

Note that a compound expression is built up by echoing each
sub-expression separately - it's not the most efficient way to do
things, but it keeps the parser simple and assumes that compound
expressions will be relatively uncommon.  In any case, a subsequent
patch introducing a way to set filters for entire subsystems should
mitigate any need to do this for lots of events.

Setting a filter without an '&&' or '||' clears the previous filter
completely and sets the filter to the new expression:

 # cat filter
 comm == Xorg
 && sig != 29

 # echo comm != Xorg

 # cat filter
 comm != Xorg

To clear a filter, echo 0 to the filter file:

 # echo 0 > filter
 # cat filter
 none

The limit of 8 predicates for a compound expression is arbitrary - for
efficiency, it's implemented as an array of pointers to predicates, and
8 seemed more than enough for any filter...

cf586b61f8 tracing/function-graph-tracer: prevent hangs during self-tests
Impact: detect tracing related hangs

Sometimes, with some configs, the function graph tracer can make
the timer interrupt too much slow, hanging the kernel in an endless
loop of timer interrupts servicing.

As suggested by Ingo, this patch brings a watchdog which stops the
selftest after a defined number of functions traced, definitely
disabling this tracer.

For those who want to debug the cause of the function graph trace
hang, you can pass the ftrace_dump_on_oops kernel parameter to dump
the traces after this hang detection.

09c9e84d47 tracing/ring-buffer: don't annotate rb_cpu_notify with __cpuinit
Impact: remove a section warning

CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH raises the following warning on -tip:

  WARNING: kernel/trace/built-in.o(.text+0x5bc5): Section mismatch in
  reference from the function ring_buffer_alloc() to the function
  .cpuinit.text:rb_cpu_notify()
  The function ring_buffer_alloc() references
  the function __cpuinit rb_cpu_notify().

This is actually harmless. The code in the ring buffer don't build
rb_cpu_notify and other cpu hotplug stuffs when !CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU
so we have no risk to reference freed memory here (it would even
be harmless if we unconditionally build it because register_cpu_notifier
would do nothing when !CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU.

But since ring_buffer_alloc() can be called everytime, we don't want it
to be annotated with __cpuinit so we drop the __cpuinit from
rb_cpu_notify.

This is not a waste of memory because it is only defined and used on
CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU.

3bf832ce1f tracing/ring-buffer: fix non cpu hotplug case
Impact: fix warning with irqsoff tracer

The ring buffer allocates its buffers on pre-smp time (early_initcall).
It means that, at first, only the boot cpu buffer is allocated and
the ring-buffer cpumask only has the boot cpu set (cpu_online_mask).

Later, the secondary cpu will show up and the ring-buffer will be notified
about this event: the appropriate buffer will be allocated and the cpumask
will be updated.

Unfortunately, if !CONFIG_CPU_HOTPLUG, the ring-buffer will not be
notified about the secondary cpus, meaning that the cpumask will have
only the cpu boot set, and only one cpu buffer allocated.

We fix that by using cpu_possible_mask if !CONFIG_CPU_HOTPLUG.

This patch fixes the following warning with irqsoff tracer running:

Because this tracer may try to swap two cpu ring buffers for an
unregistered cpu on the ring buffer.

This patch might also fix a fair loss of traces due to unallocated buffers
for secondary cpus.

ac5f6c9685 function-graph: consolidate prologues for output
Impact: clean up

The prologue of the function graph entry, return and comments all
start out pretty much the same. Each of these duplicate code and
do so slightly differently.

This patch consolidates the printing of the pid, absolute time,
cpu and proc (and for entry, the interrupt).

4a44bac1f9 symbols, stacktrace: look up init symbols after module symbols
Impact: fix incomplete stacktraces

I noticed such weird stacktrace entries in lockdep dumps:

[    0.285956] {HARDIRQ-ON-W} state was registered at:
[    0.285956]   [<ffffffff802bce90>] mark_irqflags+0xbe/0x125
[    0.285956]   [<ffffffff802bf2fd>] __lock_acquire+0x674/0x82d
[    0.285956]   [<ffffffff802bf5b2>] lock_acquire+0xfc/0x128
[    0.285956]   [<ffffffff8135b636>] rt_spin_lock+0xc8/0xd0
[    0.285956]   [<ffffffffffffffff>] 0xffffffffffffffff

The stacktrace entry is cut off after rt_spin_lock.

After much debugging i found out that stacktrace entries that
belong to init symbols dont get printed out, due to commit:

  a2da405: module: Don't report discarded init pages as kernel text.

The reason is this check added to core_kernel_text():

-       if (addr >= (unsigned long)_sinittext &&
+       if (system_state == SYSTEM_BOOTING &&
+           addr >= (unsigned long)_sinittext &&
            addr <= (unsigned long)_einittext)
                return 1;

This will discard inittext symbols even though their symbol table
is still present and even though stacktraces done while the system
was booting up might still be relevant.

To not reintroduce the (not well-specified) bug addressed in that
commit, first do a module symbols lookup, then a final init-symbols
lookup.

This will work fine on architectures that have separate address
spaces for modules (such as x86) - and should not crash any other
architectures either.

df7c8e845e cpumask: remove cpumask allocation from idle_balance
Impact: fix circular locking

Steven reports a circular locking from alloc_cpumask_var doing
a wakeup. We get rid of this using the tried-and-true technique
of using a per-cpu cpumask_var_t rather than doing an alloc
every time.

Simpler and more robust than a rare, implicit allocation within
an atomic codepath.

There is currently no easy way to clear the trace buffer. Currently
the only way is to change the current tracer.

This patch lets the user clear the trace buffer by simply writing
into the trace files.

 echo > /debug/tracing/trace

or to clear a single cpu (i.e. for CPU 1):

During the selftest of irqsoff tracer, we do that:

	/* disable interrupts for a bit */
	local_irq_disable();
	udelay(100);
	local_irq_enable();
	/* stop the tracing. */
	tracing_stop();
	/* check both trace buffers */
	ret = trace_test_buffer(tr, NULL);

If a callsite performs a new max delay with irqs off just after
tracing_stop, update_max_tr_single() -> ring_buffer_swap_cpu()
will be called with the buffers disabled by tracing_stop(), hence
the warning, then ring_buffer_swap_cpu() return -EAGAIN and
update_max_tr_single() complains.

Fix it by also stopping the tracer before stopping the tracing globally.
A similar situation can happen with preemptoff and preemptirqsoff tracers
where we apply the same fix.

2c7eea4c62 tracing: replace the crude (unsigned) -1 hackery
Impact: cleanup

The command line recorder uses (unsigned) -1 to mark non mapped
entries in the pid to command line maps. The validity check is
completely unintuitive: idx >= SAVED_CMDLINES

There is no need for such casting games. Use a constant to mark
unmapped entries and check for that constant to make the code readable
and understandable.

18aecd362a tracing: stop command line recording when tracing is disabled
Impact: prevent overwrite of command line entries

When the tracer is stopped the command line recording continues to
record. The check for tracing_is_on() is not sufficient here as the
ringbuffer status is not affected by setting
debug/tracing/tracing_enabled to 0. On a non idle system this can
result in the loss of the command line information for the stopped
trace, which makes the trace harder to read and analyse.

Check tracer_enabled to allow further recording.
