79a9d461fd tracing/ftrace: fix a bug when switch current tracer to sched tracer
Impact: fix boot tracer + sched tracer coupling bug

Fix a bug that made the sched_switch tracer unable to run
if set as the current_tracer after the boot tracer.

efade6e782 tracing/ftrace: types and naming corrections for sched tracer
Impact: cleanup

This patch applies some corrections suggested by Steven Rostedt.

Change the type of shed_ref into int since it is used
into a Mutex, we don't need it anymore as an atomic
variable in the sched_switch tracer.
Also change the name of the register mutex.

d7ad44b697 tracing/fastboot: use sched switch tracer from boot tracer
Impact: enhance boot trace output with scheduling events

Use the sched_switch tracer from the boot tracer.

We also can trace schedule events inside the initcalls.
Sched tracing is disabled after the initcall has finished and
then reenabled before the next one is started.

e55f605c14 tracing/ftrace: remove unused code in sched_switch tracer
Impact: cleanup

When init_sched_switch_trace() is called, it has no reason to start
the sched tracer if the sched_ref is not zero.

_ If this is non-zero, the tracer is already used, but we can register it
to the tracing engine. There is already a security which avoid the tracer
probes not to be resgistered twice.

_ If this is zero, this block will not be used.

07695fa04e tracing/ftrace: fix a race condition in sched_switch tracer
Impact: fix race condition in sched_switch tracer

This patch fixes a race condition in the sched_switch tracer. If
several tasks (IE: concurrent initcalls) are playing with
tracing_start_cmdline_record() and tracing_stop_cmdline_record(), the
following situation could happen:

_ Task A and B are using the same tracepoint probe. Task A holds it.
  Task B is sleeping and doesn't hold it.

_ Task A frees the sched tracer, then sched_ref is decremented to 0.

_ Task A is preempted and hadn't yet unregistered its tracepoint
  probe, then B runs.

_ B increments sched_ref, sees it's 1 and then guess it has to
  register its probe. But it has not been freed by task A.

_ A lot of bad things can happen after that...

71566a0d16 tracing/fastboot: Enable boot tracing only during initcalls
Impact: modify boot tracer

We used to disable the initcall tracing at a specified time (IE: end
of builtin initcalls). But we don't need it anymore. It will be
stopped when initcalls are finished.

However we want two things:

_Start this tracing only after pre-smp initcalls are finished.

_Since we are planning to trace sched_switches at the same time, we
want to enable them only during the initcall execution.

For this purpose, this patch introduce two functions to enable/disable
the sched_switch tracing during boot.

127cafbb27 tracepoint: introduce *_noupdate APIs.
Impact: add new tracepoint APIs to allow the batched registration of probes

new APIs separate tracepoint_probe_register(),
tracepoint_probe_unregister() into 2 steps. The first step of them
is just update tracepoint_entry, not connect or disconnect.

this patch introduces tracepoint_probe_update_all() for update all.

these APIs are very useful for registering lots of probes
but just updating once. Another very important thing is that
*_noupdate APIs do not require module_mutex.

19dba33c43 tracepoint: simplification for tracepoints using RCU
Impact: simplify implementation

Now, unused memory is handled by struct tp_probes.

old code use these three field to handle unused memory.
struct tracepoint_entry {
	...
	struct rcu_head rcu;
	void *oldptr;
	unsigned char rcu_pending:1;
	...
};

in this way, unused memory is handled by struct tracepoint_entry.
it bring reenter bug(it was fixed) and tracepoint.c is filled
full of ".*rcu.*" code statements. this patch removes all these.

and:
  rcu_barrier_sched() is removed.
  Do not need regain tracepoints_mutex after tracepoint_update_probes()
  several little cleanup.

5769907ade sparc64: Fix PCI resource mapping on sparc64
There is a problem discovered in recent versions of ATI Mach64 driver
in X.org on sparc64 architecture. In short, the driver fails to mmap
MMIO aperture (PCI resource #2).

I've found that kernel's __pci_mmap_make_offset() returns EINVAL. It
checks whether user attempts to mmap more than the resource length,
which is 0x1000 bytes in our case. But PAGE_SIZE on SPARC64 is 0x2000
and this is what actually is being mmaped. So __pci_mmap_make_offset()
failed for this PCI resource.

1f98757776 x86: Clean up late e820 resource allocation
This makes the late e820 resources use 'insert_resource_expand_to_fit()'
instead of doing a 'reserve_region_with_split()', and also avoids
marking them as IORESOURCE_BUSY.

This results in us being perfectly happy to use pre-existing PCI
resources even if they were marked as being in a reserved region, while
still avoiding any _new_ allocations in the reserved regions.  It also
makes for a simpler and more accurate resource tree.

Example resource allocation from Jonathan Corbet, who has firmware that
has an e820 reserved entry that covered a big range (e0000000-fed003ff),
and that had various PCI resources in it set up by firmware.

With old kernels, the reserved range would force us to re-allocate all
pre-existing PCI resources, and his reserved range would end up looking
like this:

	e0000000-fed003ff : reserved
	  fec00000-fec00fff : IOAPIC 0
	  fed00000-fed003ff : HPET 0

where only the pre-allocated special regions (IOAPIC and HPET) were kept
around.

With 2.6.28-rc2, which uses 'reserve_region_with_split()', Jonathan's
resource tree looked like this:

	e0000000-fe7fffff : reserved
	fe800000-fe8fffff : PCI Bus 0000:01
	 fe800000-fe8fffff : reserved
	fe900000-fe9d9aff : reserved
	fe9d9b00-fe9d9bff : 0000:00:1f.3
	 fe9d9b00-fe9d9bff : reserved
	fe9d9c00-fe9d9fff : 0000:00:1a.7
	 fe9d9c00-fe9d9fff : reserved
	fe9da000-fe9dafff : 0000:00:03.3
	 fe9da000-fe9dafff : reserved
	fe9db000-fe9dbfff : 0000:00:19.0
	 fe9db000-fe9dbfff : reserved
	fe9dc000-fe9dffff : 0000:00:1b.0
	 fe9dc000-fe9dffff : reserved
	fe9e0000-fe9fffff : 0000:00:19.0
	 fe9e0000-fe9fffff : reserved
	fea00000-fea7ffff : 0000:00:02.0
	 fea00000-fea7ffff : reserved
	fea80000-feafffff : 0000:00:02.1
	 fea80000-feafffff : reserved
	feb00000-febfffff : 0000:00:02.0
	 feb00000-febfffff : reserved
	fec00000-fed003ff : reserved
	 fec00000-fec00fff : IOAPIC 0
	 fed00000-fed003ff : HPET 0

and because the reserved entry had been split and moved into the
individual resources, and because it used the IORESOURCE_BUSY flag, the
drivers that actually wanted to _use_ those resources couldn't actually
attach to them:

	e1000e 0000:00:19.0: BAR 0: can't reserve mem region [0xfe9e0000-0xfe9fffff]
	HDA Intel 0000:00:1b.0: BAR 0: can't reserve mem region [0xfe9dc000-0xfe9dffff]

with this patch, the resource tree instead becomes

	e0000000-fed003ff : reserved
	  fe800000-fe8fffff : PCI Bus 0000:01
	  fe9d9b00-fe9d9bff : 0000:00:1f.3
	  fe9d9c00-fe9d9fff : 0000:00:1a.7
	    fe9d9c00-fe9d9fff : ehci_hcd

ie the one reserved region now ends up surrounding all the PCI resources
that were allocated inside of it by firmware, and because it is not
marked BUSY, drivers have no problem attaching to the pre-allocated
resources.

42c0202363 reserve_region_with_split: Fix GFP_KERNEL usage under spinlock
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.

233e70f422 saner FASYNC handling on file close
As it is, all instances of ->release() for files that have ->fasync()
need to remember to evict file from fasync lists; forgetting that
creates a hole and we actually have a bunch that *does* forget.

So let's keep our lives simple - let __fput() check FASYNC in
file->f_flags and call ->fasync() there if it's been set.  And lose that
crap in ->release() instances - leaving it there is still valid, but we
don't have to bother anymore.

3318a386e4 file caps: always start with clear bprm->caps_*
While Linux doesn't honor setuid on scripts.  However, it mistakenly
behaves differently for file capabilities.

This patch fixes that behavior by making sure that get_file_caps()
begins with empty bprm->caps_*.  That way when a script is loaded,
its bprm->caps_* may be filled when binfmt_misc calls prepare_binprm(),
but they will be cleared again when binfmt_elf calls prepare_binprm()
next to read the interpreter's file capabilities.

37dd0bd04a SELinux: properly handle empty tty_files list
SELinux has wrongly (since 2004) had an incorrect test for an empty
tty->tty_files list.  With an empty list selinux would be pointing to part
of the tty struct itself and would then proceed to dereference that value
and again dereference that result.  An F10 change to plymouth on a ppc64
system is actually currently triggering this bug.  This patch uses
list_empty() to handle empty lists rather than looking at a meaningless
location.
