48a1b10aff x86, sparseirq: move irq_desc according to smp_affinity, v7
Impact: improve NUMA handling by migrating irq_desc on smp_affinity changes

if CONFIG_NUMA_MIGRATE_IRQ_DESC is set:

-  make irq_desc to go with affinity aka irq_desc moving etc
-  call move_irq_desc in irq_complete_move()
-  legacy irq_desc is not moved, because they are allocated via static array

for logical apic mode, need to add move_desc_in_progress_in_same_domain,
otherwise it will not be moved ==> also could need two phases to get
irq_desc moved.

307257cf47 cgroups: fix a race between rmdir and remount
When a cgroup is removed, it's unlinked from its parent's children list,
but not actually freed until the last dentry on it is released (at which
point cgrp->root->number_of_cgroups is decremented).

Currently rebind_subsystems checks for the top cgroup's child list being
empty in order to rebind subsystems into or out of a hierarchy - this can
result in the set of subsystems bound to a hierarchy being
removed-but-not-freed cgroup.

The simplest fix for this is to forbid remounts that change the set of
subsystems on a hierarchy that has removed-but-not-freed cgroups.  This
bug can be reproduced via:

mkdir /mnt/cg
mount -t cgroup -o ns,freezer cgroup /mnt/cg
mkdir /mnt/cg/foo
sleep 1h < /mnt/cg/foo &
rmdir /mnt/cg/foo
mount -t cgroup -o remount,ns,devices,freezer cgroup /mnt/cg
kill $!

Though the above will cause oops in -mm only but not mainline, but the bug
can cause memory leak in mainline (and even oops)

320ab2b0b1 cpumask: convert struct clock_event_device to cpumask pointers.
Impact: change calling convention of existing clock_event APIs

struct clock_event_timer's cpumask field gets changed to take pointer,

0de26520c7 cpumask: make irq_set_affinity() take a const struct cpumask
Impact: change existing irq_chip API

Not much point with gentle transition here: the struct irq_chip's
setaffinity method signature needs to change.

Fortunately, not widely used code, but hits a few architectures.

Note: In irq_select_affinity() I save a temporary in by mangling
irq_desc[irq].affinity directly.  Ingo, does this break anything?

Impact: change calling convention of existing cpumask APIs

Most cpumask functions started with cpus_: these have been replaced by
cpumask_ ones which take struct cpumask pointers as expected.

These four functions don't have good replacement names; fortunately
they're rarely used, so we just change them over.

98a79d6a50 cpumask: centralize cpu_online_map and cpu_possible_map
Impact: cleanup

Each SMP arch defines these themselves.  Move them to a central
location.

Twists:
1) Some archs (m32, parisc, s390) set possible_map to all 1, so we add a
   CONFIG_INIT_ALL_POSSIBLE for this rather than break them.

2) mips and sparc32 '#define cpu_possible_map phys_cpu_present_map'.
   Those archs simply have phys_cpu_present_map replaced everywhere.

3) Alpha defined cpu_possible_map to cpu_present_map; this is tricky
   so I just manipulate them both in sync.

4) IA64, cris and m32r have gratuitous 'extern cpumask_t cpu_possible_map'
   declarations.

d65bd5ecb2 sched: add missing arch_update_cpu_topology() call
arch_reinit_sched_domains() used to call arch_update_cpu_topology()
via arch_init_sched_domains(). This call got lost with
e761b77252 ("cpu hotplug, sched: Introduce
cpu_active_map and redo sched domain managment (take 2)".

So we might end up with outdated and missing cpus in the cpu core
maps (architecture used to call arch_reinit_sched_domains if cpu
topology changed).

This adds a call to arch_update_cpu_topology in partition_sched_domains
which gets called whenever scheduling domains get updated. Which is
what is supposed to happen when cpu topology changes.

b88ed20594 fix mapping_writably_mapped()
Lee Schermerhorn noticed yesterday that I broke the mapping_writably_mapped
test in 2.6.7!  Bad bad bug, good good find.

The i_mmap_writable count must be incremented for VM_SHARED (just as
i_writecount is for VM_DENYWRITE, but while holding the i_mmap_lock)
when dup_mmap() copies the vma for fork: it has its own more optimal
version of __vma_link_file(), and I missed this out.  So the count
was later going down to 0 (dangerous) when one end unmapped, then
wrapping negative (inefficient) when the other end unmapped.

The only impact on x86 would have been that setting a mandatory lock on
a file which has at some time been opened O_RDWR and mapped MAP_SHARED
(but not necessarily PROT_WRITE) across a fork, might fail with -EAGAIN
when it should succeed, or succeed when it should fail.

But those architectures which rely on flush_dcache_page() to flush
userspace modifications back into the page before the kernel reads it,
may in some cases have skipped the flush after such a fork - though any
repetitive test will soon wrap the count negative, in which case it will
flush_dcache_page() unnecessarily.

Fix would be a two-liner, but mapping variable added, and comment moved.

9c24624727 KSYM_SYMBOL_LEN fixes
Miles Lane tailing /sys files hit a BUG which Pekka Enberg has tracked
to my 966c8c12dc sprint_symbol(): use
less stack exposing a bug in slub's list_locations() -
kallsyms_lookup() writes a 0 to namebuf[KSYM_NAME_LEN-1], but that was
beyond the end of page provided.

The 100 slop which list_locations() allows at end of page looks roughly
enough for all the other stuff it might print after the symbol before
it checks again: break out KSYM_SYMBOL_LEN earlier than before.

Latencytop and ftrace and are using KSYM_NAME_LEN buffers where they
need KSYM_SYMBOL_LEN buffers, and vmallocinfo a 2*KSYM_NAME_LEN buffer
where it wants a KSYM_SYMBOL_LEN buffer: fix those before anyone copies
them.

8b96f01198 tracing/function-graph-tracer: introduce __notrace_funcgraph to filter special functions
Impact: trace more functions

When the function graph tracer is configured, three more files are not
traced to prevent only four functions to be traced. And this impacts the
normal function tracer too.

arch/x86/kernel/process_64/32.c:

I had crashes when I let this file traced. After some debugging, I saw
that the "current" task point was changed inside__swtich_to(), ie:
"write_pda(pcurrent, next_p);" inside process_64.c Since the tracer store
the original return address of the function inside current, we had
crashes. Only __switch_to() has to be excluded from tracing.

kernel/module.c and kernel/extable.c:

Because of a function used internally by the function graph tracer:
__kernel_text_address()

To let the other functions inside these files to be traced, this patch
introduces the __notrace_funcgraph function prefix which is __notrace if
function graph tracer is configured and nothing if not.

0b8f1efad3 sparse irq_desc[] array: core kernel and x86 changes
Impact: new feature

Problem on distro kernels: irq_desc[NR_IRQS] takes megabytes of RAM with
NR_CPUS set to large values. The goal is to be able to scale up to much
larger NR_IRQS value without impacting the (important) common case.

To solve this, we generalize irq_desc[NR_IRQS] to an (optional) array of
irq_desc pointers.

When CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ=y is used, we use kzalloc_node to get irq_desc,
this also makes the IRQ descriptors NUMA-local (to the site that calls
request_irq()).

This gets rid of the irq_cfg[] static array on x86 as well: irq_cfg now
uses desc->chip_data for x86 to store irq_cfg.

5436499e60 sched: fix sd_parent_degenerate on non-numa smp machine
Impact: optimize the sched domains tree some more

The addition of SD_SERIALIZE flag added to SD_NODE_INIT prevented top level
dummy numa sched_domain to be properly degenerated on non-numa smp machine.
The reason is that in sd_parent_degenerate(), it found that the child and
parent does not have comon sched_domain flags due to SD_SERIALIZE.  However,
for non-numa smp box, the top level is a dummy with a single sched_group.

Filter out SD_SERIALIZE if it is on non-numa machine to properly degenerate
top level node sched_domain.  this will cut back some of the sd domain walk
in the load balancer code.

a little confusing for others. This patch uses the address of the
actual init pid structure instead. This change is only for
clarity. It does not affect the code itself. Hopefully soon the
swapper tasks will all have their own pid structure and then
we can clean up the code a bit more.

77d683f3e0 tracing/ftrace: fix the check of ftrace_trace_task
Impact: fix default empty traces on function-graph-tracer

The actual ftrace_trace_task() checks if ftrace_pid_trace is allocated
and return 1 if it is true.
If it is NULL, it will check the bit of pid tracing flag for the current
task (which are not set by default).
So by default, a task is not traced.
Actually all tasks should be traced by default and filter_by_pid when
ftrace_pid_trace is allocated.

The appropriate condition should be to return 1 if filter_by_pid is
set.

ff32504fdc tracing/ftrace: don't insert TRACE_PRINT during selftests
Impact: fix tracer selfstests false results

After setting a ftrace_printk somewhere in th kernel, I saw the
Function tracer selftest failing.

When a selftest occurs, the ring buffer is lurked to see if
some entries were inserted. But concurrent insertion such as
ftrace_printk could occured at the same time and could give
false positive or negative results.

This patch prevent prevent from TRACE_PRINT entries insertion
during selftests.

1fd8f2a3f9 tracing/function-graph-tracer: handle ftrace_printk entries
Handle the TRACE_PRINT entries from the function grapg tracer
and output them as a C comment just below the function that called
it, as if it was a comment inside this function.

Example with an ftrace_printk inside might_sleep() function:

void __might_sleep(char *file, int line)
{
	static unsigned long prev_jiffy;	/* ratelimiting */

	ftrace_printk("Hi I'm a comment in might_sleep() :-)");

A chunk of a resulting trace:

 0)               |        _reiserfs_free_block() {
 0)               |          reiserfs_read_bitmap_block() {
 0)               |            __bread() {
 0)               |              __getblk() {
 0)               |                __find_get_block() {
 0)   0.698 us    |                  mark_page_accessed();
 0)   2.267 us    |                }
 0)               |                __might_sleep() {
 0)               |                  /* Hi I'm a comment in might_sleep() :-) */
 0)   1.321 us    |                }
 0)   5.872 us    |              }
 0)   7.313 us    |            }
 0)   8.718 us    |          }

And this patch brings two minor fixes:

- The newline after a switch-out task has disappeared
- The "|" sign just before the cpu number on task-switch has been deleted.

Impact: new feature

This patch lets the swapper tasks of all CPUS be filtered by the
set_ftrace_pid file.

If '0' is echoed into this file, then all the idle tasks (aka swapper)
is flagged to be traced.  This affects all CPU idle tasks.

Impact: New feature

This patch makes the changes to set_ftrace_pid apply to the function
graph tracer.

  # echo $$ > /debugfs/tracing/set_ftrace_pid
  # echo function_graph > /debugfs/tracing/current_tracer

Will cause only the current task to be traced. Note, the trace flags are
also inherited by child processes, so the children of the shell
will also be traced.
