Pull s390 compat wrapper rework from Heiko Carstens:
"S390 compat system call wrapper simplification work.
The intention of this work is to get rid of all hand written assembly
compat system call wrappers on s390, which perform proper sign or zero
extension, or pointer conversion of compat system call parameters.
Instead all of this should be done with C code eg by using Al's
COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINEx() macro.
Therefore all common code and s390 specific compat system calls have
been converted to the COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINEx() macro.
In order to generate correct code all compat system calls may only
have eg compat_ulong_t parameters, but no unsigned long parameters.
Those patches which change parameter types from unsigned long to
compat_ulong_t parameters are separate in this series, but shouldn't
cause any harm.
The only compat system calls which intentionally have 64 bit
parameters (preadv64 and pwritev64) in support of the x86/32 ABI
haven't been changed, but are now only available if an architecture
defines __ARCH_WANT_COMPAT_SYS_PREADV64/PWRITEV64.
System calls which do not have a compat variant but still need proper
zero extension on s390, like eg "long sys_brk(unsigned long brk)" will
get a proper wrapper function with the new s390 specific
COMPAT_SYSCALL_WRAPx() macro:
COMPAT_SYSCALL_WRAP1(brk, unsigned long, brk);
which generates the following code (simplified):
asmlinkage long sys_brk(unsigned long brk);
asmlinkage long compat_sys_brk(long brk)
{
return sys_brk((u32)brk);
}
Given that the C file which contains all the COMPAT_SYSCALL_WRAP lines
includes both linux/syscall.h and linux/compat.h, it will generate
build errors, if the declaration of sys_brk() doesn't match, or if
there exists a non-matching compat_sys_brk() declaration.
In addition this will intentionally result in a link error if
somewhere else a compat_sys_brk() function exists, which probably
should have been used instead. Two more BUILD_BUG_ONs make sure the
size and type of each compat syscall parameter can be handled
correctly with the s390 specific macros.
I converted the compat system calls step by step to verify the
generated code is correct and matches the previous code. In fact it
did not always match, however that was always a bug in the hand
written asm code.
In result we get less code, less bugs, and much more sanity checking"

It its possible to configure your PAM stack to refuse login if audit
messages (about the login) were unable to be sent. This is common in
many distros and thus normal configuration of many containers. The PAM
modules determine if audit is enabled/disabled in the kernel based on
the return value from sending an audit message on the netlink socket.
If userspace gets back ECONNREFUSED it believes audit is disabled in the
kernel. If it gets any other error else it refuses to let the login
proceed.
Just about ever since the introduction of namespaces the kernel audit
subsystem has returned EPERM if the task sending a message was not in
the init user or pid namespace. So many forms of containers have never
worked if audit was enabled in the kernel.
BUT if the container was not in net_init then the kernel network code
would send ECONNREFUSED (instead of the audit code sending EPERM). Thus
by pure accident/dumb luck/bug if an admin configured the PAM stack to
reject all logins that didn't talk to audit, but then ran the login
untility in the non-init_net namespace, it would work!! Clearly this was
a bug, but it is a bug some people expected.
With the introduction of network namespace support in 3.14-rc1 the two
bugs stopped cancelling each other out. Now, containers in the
non-init_net namespace refused to let users log in (just like PAM was
configfured!) Obviously some people were not happy that what used to let
users log in, now didn't!
This fix is kinda hacky. We return ECONNREFUSED for all non-init
relevant namespaces. That means that not only will the old broken
non-init_net setups continue to work, now the broken non-init_pid or
non-init_user setups will 'work'. They don't really work, since audit
isn't logging things. But it's what most users want.
In 3.15 we should have patches to support not only the non-init_net
(3.14) namespace but also the non-init_pid and non-init_user namespace.
So all will be right in the world. This just opens the doors wide open
on 3.14 and hopefully makes users happy, if not the audit system...

This patch replaces/reworks the kernel-internal BPF interpreter with
an optimized BPF instruction set format that is modelled closer to
mimic native instruction sets and is designed to be JITed with one to
one mapping. Thus, the new interpreter is noticeably faster than the
current implementation of sk_run_filter(); mainly for two reasons:
1. Fall-through jumps:
BPF jump instructions are forced to go either 'true' or 'false'
branch which causes branch-miss penalty. The new BPF jump
instructions have only one branch and fall-through otherwise,
which fits the CPU branch predictor logic better. `perf stat`
shows drastic difference for branch-misses between the old and
new code.
2. Jump-threaded implementation of interpreter vs switch
statement:
Instead of single table-jump at the top of 'switch' statement,
gcc will now generate multiple table-jump instructions, which
helps CPU branch predictor logic.
Note that the verification of filters is still being done through
sk_chk_filter() in classical BPF format, so filters from user- or
kernel space are verified in the same way as we do now, and same
restrictions/constraints hold as well.
We reuse current BPF JIT compilers in a way that this upgrade would
even be fine as is, but nevertheless allows for a successive upgrade
of BPF JIT compilers to the new format.
The internal instruction set migration is being done after the
probing for JIT compilation, so in case JIT compilers are able to
create a native opcode image, we're going to use that, and in all
other cases we're doing a follow-up migration of the BPF program's
instruction set, so that it can be transparently run in the new
interpreter.
In short, the *internal* format extends BPF in the following way (more
details can be taken from the appended documentation):
- Number of registers increase from 2 to 10
- Register width increases from 32-bit to 64-bit
- Conditional jt/jf targets replaced with jt/fall-through
- Adds signed > and >= insns
- 16 4-byte stack slots for register spill-fill replaced
with up to 512 bytes of multi-use stack space
- Introduction of bpf_call insn and register passing convention
for zero overhead calls from/to other kernel functions
- Adds arithmetic right shift and endianness conversion insns
- Adds atomic_add insn
- Old tax/txa insns are replaced with 'mov dst,src' insn
Performance of two BPF filters generated by libpcap resp. bpf_asm
was measured on x86_64, i386 and arm32 (other libpcap programs
have similar performance differences):
fprog #1 is taken from Documentation/networking/filter.txt:
tcpdump -i eth0 port 22 -dd
fprog #2 is taken from 'man tcpdump':
tcpdump -i eth0 'tcp port 22 and (((ip[2:2] - ((ip[0]&0xf)<<2)) -
((tcp[12]&0xf0)>>2)) != 0)' -dd
Raw performance data from BPF micro-benchmark: SK_RUN_FILTER on the
same SKB (cache-hit) or 10k SKBs (cache-miss); time in ns per call,
smaller is better:
--x86_64--
fprog #1 fprog #1 fprog #2 fprog #2
cache-hit cache-miss cache-hit cache-miss

and many more will have better interpreter filtering performance.
While we are replacing the internal BPF interpreter, we also need
to convert seccomp BPF in the same step to make use of the new
internal structure since it makes use of lower-level API details
without being further decoupled through higher-level calls like
sk_unattached_filter_{create,destroy}(), for example.
Just as for normal socket filtering, also seccomp BPF experiences
a time-to-verdict speedup:
05-sim-long_jumps.c of libseccomp was used as micro-benchmark:
seccomp_rule_add_exact(ctx,...
seccomp_rule_add_exact(ctx,...
rc = seccomp_load(ctx);
for (i = 0; i < 10000000; i++)
syscall(199, 100);

'large filter' has 200 rules
'short filter' performance is slightly better on x86_64/i386/arm32
'large filter' is much faster on x86_64 and i386 and shows no

BPF filters generated by seccomp are very branchy, so the new
internal BPF performance is better than the old one. Performance
gains will be even higher when BPF JIT is committed for the
new structure, which is planned in future work (as successive
JIT migrations).
BPF has also been stress-tested with trinity's BPF fuzzer.

It its possible to configure your PAM stack to refuse login if audit
messages (about the login) were unable to be sent. This is common in
many distros and thus normal configuration of many containers. The PAM
modules determine if audit is enabled/disabled in the kernel based on
the return value from sending an audit message on the netlink socket.
If userspace gets back ECONNREFUSED it believes audit is disabled in the
kernel. If it gets any other error else it refuses to let the login
proceed.
Just about ever since the introduction of namespaces the kernel audit
subsystem has returned EPERM if the task sending a message was not in
the init user or pid namespace. So many forms of containers have never
worked if audit was enabled in the kernel.
BUT if the container was not in net_init then the kernel network code
would send ECONNREFUSED (instead of the audit code sending EPERM). Thus
by pure accident/dumb luck/bug if an admin configured the PAM stack to
reject all logins that didn't talk to audit, but then ran the login
untility in the non-init_net namespace, it would work!! Clearly this was
a bug, but it is a bug some people expected.
With the introduction of network namespace support in 3.14-rc1 the two
bugs stopped cancelling each other out. Now, containers in the
non-init_net namespace refused to let users log in (just like PAM was
configfured!) Obviously some people were not happy that what used to let
users log in, now didn't!
This fix is kinda hacky. We return ECONNREFUSED for all non-init
relevant namespaces. That means that not only will the old broken
non-init_net setups continue to work, now the broken non-init_pid or
non-init_user setups will 'work'. They don't really work, since audit
isn't logging things. But it's what most users want.
In 3.15 we should have patches to support not only the non-init_net
(3.14) namespace but also the non-init_pid and non-init_user namespace.
So all will be right in the world. This just opens the doors wide open
on 3.14 and hopefully makes users happy, if not the audit system...

In commit 47a1b79630 ("tick/timekeeping: Call
update_wall_time outside the jiffies lock"), we moved to calling
clock_was_set() due to the fact that we were no longer holding
the timekeeping or jiffies lock.
However, there is still the problem that clock_was_set()
triggers an IPI, which cannot be done from the timer's hard irq
context, and will generate WARN_ON warnings.
Apparently in my earlier testing, I'm guessing I didn't bump the
dmesg log level, so I somehow missed the WARN_ONs.
Thus we need to revert back to calling clock_was_set_delayed().

my slides for the event trigger tutorial. I booted a 3.14-rc7 kernel
to perform what I wanted to teach and cut and paste it into my slides.
When I tried the traceon event trigger with a condition attached to it
(turns tracing on only if a field of the trigger event matches a condition
set by the user), nothing happened. Tracing would not turn on. I stopped
working on my presentation in order to find what was wrong.
It ended up being the way trace event triggers work when they have
conditions. Instead of copying the fields, the condition code just
looks at the fields that were copied into the ring buffer. This works
great, unless tracing is off. That's because when the event is reserved
on the ring buffer, the ring buffer returns a NULL pointer, this tells
the tracing code that the ring buffer is disabled. This ends up being
a problem for the traceon trigger if it is using this information to
check its condition.
Luckily the code that checks if tracing is on returns the ring buffer
to use (because the ring buffer is determined by the event file
also passed to that field). I was able to easily solve this bug by
checking in that helper function if the returned ring buffer entry
is NULL, and if so, also check the file flag if it has a trace event
trigger condition, and if so, to pass back a temp ring buffer to use.
This will allow the trace event trigger condition to still test the
event fields, but nothing will be recorded.

tracing: Fix traceon trigger condition to actually turn tracing on
While working on my tutorial for 2014 Linux Collaboration Summit
I found that the traceon trigger did not work when conditions were
used. The other triggers worked fine though. Looking into it, it
is because of the way the triggers use the ring buffer to store
the fields it will use for the condition. But if tracing is off, nothing
is stored in the buffer, and the tracepoint exits before calling the
trigger to test the condition. This is fine for all the triggers that
only work when tracing is on, but for traceon trigger that is to
work when tracing is off, nothing happens.
The fix is simple, just use a temp ring buffer to record the event
if tracing is off and the event has a trace event conditional trigger
enabled. The rest of the tracepoint code will work just fine, but
the tracepoint wont be recorded in the other buffers.

taking the hb->lock if there's nothing to wake up") causes java threads
getting stuck on futexes when runing specjbb on a power7 numa box.
The cause appears to be that the powerpc spinlocks aren't using the same
ticket lock model that we use on x86 (and other) architectures, which in
turn result in the "spin_is_locked()" test in hb_waiters_pending()
occasionally reporting an unlocked spinlock even when there are pending
waiters.
So this reinstates Davidlohr Bueso's original explicit waiter counting
code, which I had convinced Davidlohr to drop in favor of figuring out
the pending waiters by just using the existing state of the spinlock and

tracing: Fix array size mismatch in format string
The following pattern is currently not well supported by RCU:
1. Make data element inaccessible to RCU readers.
2. Do work that probably lasts for more than one grace period.
3. Do something to make sure RCU readers in flight before #1 above
have completed.
Here are some things that could currently be done:
a. Do a synchronize_rcu() unconditionally at either #1 or #3 above.
This works, but imposes needless work and latency.
b. Post an RCU callback at #1 above that does a wakeup, then
wait for the wakeup at #3. This works well, but likely results
in an extra unneeded grace period. Open-coding this is also
a bit more semi-tricky code than would be good.
This commit therefore adds get_state_synchronize_rcu() and
cond_synchronize_rcu() APIs. Call get_state_synchronize_rcu() at #1
above and pass its return value to cond_synchronize_rcu() at #3 above.
This results in a call to synchronize_rcu() if no grace period has
elapsed between #1 and #3, but requires only a load, comparison, and
memory barrier if a full grace period did elapse.

One in array subscript and then via the "size:" attribute. The values

arrays have subscript values as [32] where as the actual field size is
16.

92edca0 tracing: Use direct field, type and system names
This commit removes the duplication of strings for field->name and
field->type assuming that all the strings passed in
__trace_define_field() are immutable. This is not true for arrays, where
the type string is created in event_storage variable and field->type for
all array fields points to event_storage.
Use __stringify() to create a string constant for the type string.
Also, get rid of event_storage and event_storage_mutex that are not
needed anymore.
also, an added benefit is that this reduces the overhead of events a bit more:

cgroup_tree_mutex should nest above the kernfs active_ref protection;
however, cgroup_create() and cgroup_rename() were grabbing
cgroup_tree_mutex while under kernfs active_ref protection. This has
actualy possibility to lead to deadlocks in case these operations race
against cgroup_rmdir() which invokes kernfs_remove() on directory
kernfs_node while holding cgroup_tree_mutex.
Neither cgroup_create() or cgroup_rename() requires active_ref
protection. The former already has enough synchronization through
cgroup_lock_live_group() and the latter doesn't care, so this can be
fixed by updating both functions to break all active_ref protections
before grabbing cgroup_tree_mutex.
While this patch fixes the immediate issue, it probably needs further
work in the long term - kernfs directories should enable lockdep
annotations and maybe the better way to handle this is marking
directory nodes as not needing active_ref protection rather than
breaking it in each operation.

While reading through 3.14-rc1 I found a pretty siginficant mishandling
of network namespaces in the recent audit changes.
In struct audit_netlink_list and audit_reply add a reference to the
network namespace of the caller and remove the userspace pid of the
caller. This cleanly remembers the callers network namespace, and
removes a huge class of races and nasty failure modes that can occur
when attempting to relook up the callers network namespace from a pid_t
(including the caller's network namespace changing, pid wraparound, and
the pid simply not being present).

During an audit event, cache and print the value of the process's
proctitle value (proc/<pid>/cmdline). This is useful in situations
where processes are started via fork'd virtual machines where the
comm field is incorrect. Often times, setting the comm field still
is insufficient as the comm width is not very wide and most
virtual machine "package names" do not fit. Also, during execution,
many threads have their comm field set as well. By tying it back to
the global cmdline value for the process, audit records will be more
complete in systems with these properties. An example of where this
is useful and applicable is in the realm of Android. With Android,
their is no fork/exec for VM instances. The bare, preloaded Dalvik
VM listens for a fork and specialize request. When this request comes
in, the VM forks, and the loads the specific application (specializing).
This was done to take advantage of COW and to not require a load of
basic packages by the VM on very app spawn. When this spawn occurs,
the package name is set via setproctitle() and shows up in procfs.
Many of these package names are longer then 16 bytes, the historical
width of task->comm. Having the cmdline in the audit records will
couple the application back to the record directly. Also, on my
Debian development box, some audit records were more useful then
what was printed under comm.
The cached proctitle is tied to the life-cycle of the audit_context
structure and is built on demand.
Proctitle is controllable by userspace, and thus should not be trusted.
It is meant as an aid to assist in debugging. The proctitle event is
emitted during syscall audits, and can be filtered with auditctl.
Example:
type=AVC msg=audit(1391217013.924:386): avc: denied { getattr } for pid=1971 comm="mkdir" name="/" dev="selinuxfs" ino=1 scontext=system_u:system_r:consolekit_t:s0-s0:c0.c255 tcontext=system_u:object_r:security_t:s0 tclass=filesystem

The following method of CPU hotplug callback registration is not safe
due to the possibility of an ABBA deadlock involving the cpu_add_remove_lock
and the cpu_hotplug.lock.
get_online_cpus();
for_each_online_cpu(cpu)
init_cpu(cpu);
register_cpu_notifier(&foobar_cpu_notifier);
put_online_cpus();
The deadlock is shown below:
CPU 0 CPU 1
----- -----
Acquire cpu_hotplug.lock
[via get_online_cpus()]
CPU online/offline operation
takes cpu_add_remove_lock
[via cpu_maps_update_begin()]
Try to acquire
cpu_add_remove_lock
[via register_cpu_notifier()]
CPU online/offline operation
tries to acquire cpu_hotplug.lock
[via cpu_hotplug_begin()]
*** DEADLOCK! ***
The problem here is that callback registration takes the locks in one order
whereas the CPU hotplug operations take the same locks in the opposite order.
To avoid this issue and to provide a race-free method to register CPU hotplug
callbacks (along with initialization of already online CPUs), introduce new
variants of the callback registration APIs that simply register the callbacks
without holding the cpu_add_remove_lock during the registration. That way,
we can avoid the ABBA scenario. However, we will need to hold the
cpu_add_remove_lock throughout the entire critical section, to protect updates
to the callback/notifier chain.
This can be achieved by writing the callback registration code as follows:
cpu_maps_update_begin(); [ or cpu_notifier_register_begin(); see below ]
for_each_online_cpu(cpu)
init_cpu(cpu);
/* This doesn't take the cpu_add_remove_lock */
__register_cpu_notifier(&foobar_cpu_notifier);
cpu_maps_update_done(); [ or cpu_notifier_register_done(); see below ]
Note that we can't use get_online_cpus() here instead of cpu_maps_update_begin()
because the cpu_hotplug.lock is dropped during the invocation of CPU_POST_DEAD
notifiers, and hence get_online_cpus() cannot provide the necessary
synchronization to protect the callback/notifier chains against concurrent
reads and writes. On the other hand, since the cpu_add_remove_lock protects
the entire hotplug operation (including CPU_POST_DEAD), we can use
cpu_maps_update_begin/done() to guarantee proper synchronization.
Also, since cpu_maps_update_begin/done() is like a super-set of
get/put_online_cpus(), the former naturally protects the critical sections
from concurrent hotplug operations.
Since the names cpu_maps_update_begin/done() don't make much sense in CPU
hotplug callback registration scenarios, we'll introduce new APIs named
cpu_notifier_register_begin/done() and map them to cpu_maps_update_begin/done().
In summary, introduce the lockless variants of un/register_cpu_notifier() and
also export the cpu_notifier_register_begin/done() APIs for use by modules.
This way, we provide a race-free way to register hotplug callbacks as well as
perform initialization for the CPUs that are already online.

cgroup: fix a failure path in create_css()
cgroup_taskset is used to track and iterate target tasks while
migrating a task or process and should guarantee that the first task
iterated is the task group leader if a process is being migrated.
b3dc094e93 ("cgroup: use css_set->mg_tasks to track target tasks
during migration") replaced flex array cgroup_taskset->tc_array with
css_set->mg_tasks list to remove process size limit and dynamic
allocation during migration; unfortunately, it incorrectly used list
operations which don't preserve order breaking the guarantee that
cgroup_taskset_first() returns the leader for a process target.
Fix it by using order preserving list operations. Note that as
multiple src_csets may map to a single dst_cset, the iteration order
may change across cgroup_task_migrate(); however, the leader is still
guaranteed to be the first entry.
The switch to list_splice_tail_init() at the end of cgroup_migrate()
isn't strictly necessary. Let's still do it for consistency.

cgrp_dfl_root will be used as the default unified hierarchy. This
patch makes cgrp_dfl_root mountable by making the following changes.
* cgroup_init_early() now initializes cgrp_dfl_root w/
CGRP_ROOT_SANE_BEHAVIOR. The default hierarchy is always sane.
* parse_cgroupfs_options() and cgroup_mount() are updated such that
cgrp_dfl_root is mounted if sane_behavior is specified w/o any
subsystems.
* rebind_subsystems() now populates the root directory of
cgrp_dfl_root. Note that the function still guarantees success of
rebinding subsystems to cgrp_dfl_root. If populating fails while
rebinding to cgrp_dfl_root, it whines but ignores the error.
* For backward compatibility, the default hierarchy shows up in
/proc/$PID/cgroup only after it's explicitly mounted so that
userland which doesn't make use of it doesn't see any change.
* "current_css_set_cg_links" file of debug cgroup now treats the
default hierarchy the same as other hierarchies. This is visible to
userland. Given that it's for debug controller, this should be
fine.
* While at it, implement cgroup_on_dfl() which tests whether a give
cgroup is on the default hierarchy or not.
The above changes make cgrp_dfl_root mostly equivalent to other
controllers but the actual unified hierarchy behaviors are not
implemented yet. Let's plug child cgroup creation in cgrp_dfl_root

cgroupfs_root->subsys_mask represents the controllers attached to the
hierarchy. This patch moves the field to cgroup. Subsystem
initialization and rebinding updates the top cgroup's subsys_mask.
For !root cgroups, the subsys_mask bits are set from create_css() and
cleared from kill_css(), which effectively means that all cgroups will
have the same subsys_mask as the top cgroup.
While this doesn't make any difference now, this will help
implementation of the default unified hierarchy where !root cgroups
may have subsets of the top_cgroup's subsys_mask.
While at it, __kill_css() is split out of kill_css(). The former
doesn't care about the subsys_mask while the latter becomes noop if
the controller is already killed and clears the matching bit if not
before proceeding to killing the css. This will be used later by the
default unified hierarchy implementation.

Currently, while rebinding, cgroup_dummy_root serves as the anchor
point. In addition to the target root, rebind_subsystems() takes
@added_mask and @removed_mask. The subsystems specified in the former
are expected to be on the dummy root and then moved to the target
root. The ones in the latter are moved from non-dummy root to dummy.
Now that the dummy root is a fully functional one and we're planning
to use it for the default unified hierarchy, this level of distinction
between dummy and non-dummy roots is quite awkward.
This patch updates rebind_subsystems() to take the target root and one
subsystem mask and move the specified subsystmes to the target root
which may or may not be the dummy root. IOW, unbinding now becomes
moving the subsystems to the dummy root and binding to non-dummy root.
This makes the dummy root mostly equivalent to other hierarchies in
terms of the mechanism of moving subsystems around; however, we still
retain all the semantical restrictions so that this patch doesn't
introduce any visible behavior differences. Another noteworthy detail
is that rebind_subsystems() guarantees that moving a subsystem to the
dummy root never fails so that valid unmounting attempts always
succeed.
This unifies binding and unbinding of subsystems. The invocation
points of ->bind() were inconsistent between the two and now moved
after whole rebinding is complete. This doesn't break the current
users and generally makes more sense.
All rebind_subsystems() users are converted accordingly. Note that
cgroup_remount() now makes two calls to rebind_subsystems() to bind
and then unbind the requested subsystems.
This will allow repurposing of the dummy hierarchy as the default
unified hierarchy and shouldn't make any userland visible behavior
difference.

cgroup_dummy_root is used to host controllers which aren't attached to
any other hierarchy. The root is minimally set up during kernfs
bootstrap and didn't go through full hierarchy initialization. We're
planning to use cgroup_dummy_root for the default unified hierarchy
and thus want it to be fully functional.
Replace the special initialization, which was collected into
cgroup_init() by the previous patch, with an invocation of
cgroup_setup_root(). This simplifies the init path and makes
cgroup_dummy_root a full hierarchy with its own kernfs_root and all.
As this puts the dummy hierarchy on the cgroup_roots list, rename
for_each_active_root() to for_each_root() and update its users to skip
the dummy root for now.

jiffies. So when CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL=y, which implies that cputime_t
is based on nsecs, steal_account_process_tick() passes the delta in
jiffies to account_steal_time() which then accounts it as if it's a
value in nsecs.
As a result, accounting 1 second of steal time (with HZ=100 that would
be 100 jiffies) is spuriously accounted as 100 nsecs.
As such /proc/stat may report 0 values of steal time even when two
guests have run concurrently for a few seconds on the same host and
same CPU.
In order to fix this, lets convert the nsecs based steal delta to
cputime instead of jiffies by using the right conversion API.
Given that the steal time is stored in cputime_t and this type can have
a smaller granularity than nsecs, we only account the rounded converted
value and leave the remaining nsecs for the next deltas.

Users have reported being unable to trace non-signed modules loaded
within a kernel supporting module signature.
This is caused by tracepoint.c:tracepoint_module_coming() refusing to
take into account tracepoints sitting within force-loaded modules
(TAINT_FORCED_MODULE). The reason for this check, in the first place, is
that a force-loaded module may have a struct module incompatible with
the layout expected by the kernel, and can thus cause a kernel crash
upon forced load of that module on a kernel with CONFIG_TRACEPOINTS=y.
Tracepoints, however, specifically accept TAINT_OOT_MODULE and
TAINT_CRAP, since those modules do not lead to the "very likely system
crash" issue cited above for force-loaded modules.
With kernels having CONFIG_MODULE_SIG=y (signed modules), a non-signed
module is tainted re-using the TAINT_FORCED_MODULE taint flag.
Unfortunately, this means that Tracepoints treat that module as a
force-loaded module, and thus silently refuse to consider any tracepoint
within this module.
Since an unsigned module does not fit within the "very likely system
crash" category of tainting, add a new TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE taint flag
to specifically address this taint behavior, and accept those modules
within Tracepoints. We use the letter 'X' as a taint flag character for
a module being loaded that doesn't know how to sign its name (proposed
by Steven Rostedt).
Also add the missing 'O' entry to trace event show_module_flags() list
for the sake of completeness.

Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
For certain irq types, e.g. gpios, it's necessary to request resources
before starting up the irq.
This might fail so we cannot use the irq_startup() callback because we
might call the irq_set_type() callback before that which does not make
sense when the resource is not available. Calling irq_startup() before
irq_set_type() can lead to spurious interrupts which is not desired
either.

OK, so commit:
1d8fe7dc80 ("locking/mutexes: Unlock the mutex without the wait_lock")
generates this boot warning when CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES=y:
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 139 at /usr/src/linux-2.6/kernel/locking/mutex-debug.c:82 debug_mutex_unlock+0x155/0x180() DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON(lock->owner != current)
And that makes sense, because as soon as we release the lock a
new owner can come in...
One would think that !__mutex_slowpath_needs_to_unlock()
implementations suffer the same, but for DEBUG we fall back to
mutex-null.h which has an unconditional 1 for that.
The mutex debug code requires the mutex to be unlocked after
doing the debug checks, otherwise it can find inconsistent

I decided to run my tests on linux-next, and my wakeup_rt tracer was
broken. After running a bisect, I found that the problem commit was:
linux-next commit c365c292d0
"sched: Consider pi boosting in setscheduler()"
And the reason the wake_rt tracer test was failing, was because it had
no RT task to trace. I first noticed this when running with
sched_switch event and saw that my RT task still had normal SCHED_OTHER
priority. Looking at the problem commit, I found:
- p->normal_prio = normal_prio(p);
- p->prio = rt_mutex_getprio(p);
With no
+ p->normal_prio = normal_prio(p);
+ p->prio = rt_mutex_getprio(p);
Reading what the commit is suppose to do, I realize that the p->prio
can't be set if the task is boosted with a higher prio, but the
p->normal_prio still needs to be set regardless, otherwise, when the
task is deboosted, it wont get the new priority.
The p->prio has to be set before "check_class_changed()" is called,
otherwise the class wont be changed.
Also added fix to newprio to include a check for deadline policy that
was missing. This change was suggested by Juri Lelli.

The mutex->spin_mlock was introduced in order to ensure that only 1 thread
spins for lock acquisition at a time to reduce cache line contention. When
lock->owner is NULL and the lock->count is still not 1, the spinner(s) will
continually release and obtain the lock->spin_mlock. This can generate
quite a bit of overhead/contention, and also might just delay the spinner
from getting the lock.
This patch modifies the way optimistic spinners are queued by queuing before
entering the optimistic spinning loop as oppose to acquiring before every
call to mutex_spin_on_owner(). So in situations where the spinner requires
a few extra spins before obtaining the lock, then there will only be 1 spinner
trying to get the lock and it will avoid the overhead from unnecessarily
unlocking and locking the spin_mlock.

1) Single cpu machine case.
When rq has only RT tasks, but no one of them can be picked
because of throttling, we enter in endless loop.
pick_next_task_{dl,rt} return NULL.
In pick_next_task_fair() we permanently go to retry
if (rq->nr_running != rq->cfs.h_nr_running)
return RETRY_TASK;
(rq->nr_running is not being decremented when rt_rq becomes
throttled).
No chances to unthrottle any rt_rq or to wake fair here,
because of rq is locked permanently and interrupts are
disabled.
2) In case of SMP this can cause a hang too. Although we unlock
rq in idle_balance(), interrupts are still disabled.
The solution is to check for available tasks in DL and RT
classes instead of checking for sum.

The problems:
1) We check for rt_nr_running before call of put_prev_task().
If previous task is RT, its rt_rq may become throttled
and dequeued after this call.
In case of p is from rt->rq this just causes picking a task
from throttled queue, but in case of its rt_rq is child
we are guaranteed catch BUG_ON.
2) The same with deadline class. The only difference we operate
on only dl_rq.
This patch fixes all the above problems and it adds a small skip in the
DL update like we've already done for RT class:
if (unlikely((s64)delta_exec <= 0))
return;
This will optimize sequential update_curr_dl() calls a little.

GFP_THISNODE is for callers that implement their own clever fallback to
remote nodes. It restricts the allocation to the specified node and
does not invoke reclaim, assuming that the caller will take care of it
when the fallback fails, e.g. through a subsequent allocation request
without GFP_THISNODE set.
However, many current GFP_THISNODE users only want the node exclusive
aspect of the flag, without actually implementing their own fallback or
triggering reclaim if necessary. This results in things like page
migration failing prematurely even when there is easily reclaimable
memory available, unless kswapd happens to be running already or a
concurrent allocation attempt triggers the necessary reclaim.
Convert all callsites that don't implement their own fallback strategy
to __GFP_THISNODE. This restricts the allocation a single node too, but
at the same time allows the allocator to enter the slowpath, wake
kswapd, and invoke direct reclaim if necessary, to make the allocation
happen when memory is full.

Developers would say they put a trace_printk() before and after the trace
event but when they enable it (and the trace event said it was enabled) they
would see the trace_printks but not the trace event.
I was not able to reproduce this, but that's because I wasn't looking at
the right location. Recently, another bug came up that showed the issue.
If your kernel supports signed modules but allows for non-signed modules
to be loaded, then when one is, the kernel will silently set the
MODULE_FORCED taint on the module. Although, this taint happens without
the need for insmod --force or anything of the kind, it labels the
module with that taint anyway.
If this tainted module has tracepoints, the tracepoints will be ignored
because of the MODULE_FORCED taint. But no error message will be
displayed. Worse yet, the event infrastructure will still be created
letting users enable the trace event represented by the tracepoint,
although that event will never actually be enabled. This is because
the tracepoint infrastructure allows for non-existing tracepoints to
be enabled for new modules to arrive and have their tracepoints set.
Although there are several things wrong with the above, this change
only addresses the creation of the trace event files for tracepoints
that are not created when a module is loaded and is tainted. This change
will print an error message about the module being tainted and not the
trace events will not be created, and it does not create the trace event
infrastructure.

at the right location. Recently, another bug came up that showed the
issue.
If your kernel supports signed modules but allows for non-signed
modules to be loaded, then when one is, the kernel will silently set
the MODULE_FORCED taint on the module. Although, this taint happens
without the need for insmod --force or anything of the kind, it labels
the module with that taint anyway.
If this tainted module has tracepoints, the tracepoints will be
ignored because of the MODULE_FORCED taint. But no error message will
be displayed. Worse yet, the event infrastructure will still be
created letting users enable the trace event represented by the
tracepoint, although that event will never actually be enabled. This
is because the tracepoint infrastructure allows for non-existing
tracepoints to be enabled for new modules to arrive and have their
tracepoints set.
Although there are several things wrong with the above, this change
only addresses the creation of the trace event files for tracepoints
that are not created when a module is loaded and is tainted. This
change will print an error message about the module being tainted and
not the trace events will not be created, and it does not create the
trace event infrastructure"

We should print some warning and kill ftrace functionality when the ftrace
function is not set correctly. Otherwise, ftrace might do crazy things without
an explanation. The error value has been ignored so far.
Note that an error that happens during updating all the traced calls is handled
in ftrace_replace_code(). We print more details about the particular
failing address via ftrace_bug() there.

No architecture uses the "data" parameter in ftrace_dyn_arch_init() in any
way, it just sets the value to 0. And this is used as a return value
in the caller -- ftrace_init, which just checks the retval against
zero.
Note there is also "return 0" in every ftrace_dyn_arch_init. So it is
enough to check the retval and remove all the indirect sets of data on
all archs.

Tracepoints were made to allow enabling a tracepoint in a module before that
module was loaded. When a tracepoint is enabled and it does not exist, the
name is stored and will be enabled when the tracepoint is created.
The problem with this approach is that when a tracepoint is enabled when
it expects to be there, it gives no warning that it does not exist.
To add salt to the wound, if a module is added and sets the FORCED flag, which
can happen if it isn't signed properly, the tracepoint code will not enabled
the tracepoints, but they will be created in the debugfs system! When a user
goes to enable the tracepoint, the tracepoint code will not see it existing
and will think it is to be enabled later AND WILL NOT GIVE A WARNING.
The tracing will look like it succeeded but will actually be doing nothing.
This will cause lots of confusion and headaches for developers trying to
figure out why they are not seeing their tracepoints.

The functions that assign the contents for the ftrace events are
defined by the TRACE_EVENT() macros. Each event has its own unique
way to assign data to its buffer. When you have over 500 events,
that means there's 500 functions assigning data uniquely for each
event (not really that many, as DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS() and multiple
DEFINE_EVENT()s will only need a single function).
By making helper functions in the core kernel to do some of the work
instead, we can shrink the size of the kernel down a bit.
With a kernel configured with 502 events, the change in size was:
text data bss dec hex filename

That's a total of 28288 bytes, which comes down to 56 bytes per event.

Currently perf_branch_stack_sched_in iterates over the set of pmus,
checks that each pmu has a flush_branch_stack callback, then overwrites
the pmu before calling the callback. This is either redundant or broken.
In systems with a single hw pmu, pmu == cpuctx->ctx.pmu, and thus the
assignment is redundant.
In systems with multiple hw pmus (i.e. multiple pmus with task_ctx_nr ==
perf_hw_context) the pmus share the same perf_cpu_context. Thus the
assignment can cause one of the pmus to flush its branch stack
repeatedly rather than causing each of the pmus to flush their branch
stacks. Worse still, if only some pmus have the callback the assignment

Michael spotted that the idle_balance() push down created a task
priority problem.
Previously, when we called idle_balance() before pick_next_task() it
wasn't a problem when -- because of the rq->lock droppage -- an rt/dl
task slipped in.
Similarly for pre_schedule(), rt pre-schedule could have a dl task
slip in.
But by pulling it into the pick_next_task() loop, we'll not try a
higher task priority again.
Cure this by creating a re-start condition in pick_next_task(); and
triggering this from pick_next_task_{rt,fair}().
It also fixes a live-lock where we get stuck in pick_next_task_fair()
due to idle_balance() seeing !0 nr_running but there not actually
being any fair tasks about.

maintain the runnable avg of a rq in the !CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED case.
This patch guards struct sched_avg of struct rq and

There is an extra empty definition for update_rq_runnable_avg()

We then proceed with destroying and freeing the event, and when you

Kirill Tkhai noted:
Since deadline tasks share rt bandwidth, we must care about
bandwidth timer set. Otherwise rt_time may grow up to infinity
in update_curr_dl(), if there are no other available RT tasks
on top level bandwidth.
RT task were in fact throttled right after they got enqueued,
and never executed again (rt_time never again went below rt_runtime).
Peter then proposed to accrue DL execution on rt_time only when
rt timer is active, and proposed a patch (this patch is a slight
modification of that) to implement that behavior. While this
solves Kirill problem, it has a drawback.
Indeed, Kirill noted again:
It looks we may get into a situation, when all CPU time is shared
between RT and DL tasks:
rt_runtime = n
rt_period = 2n
| RT working, DL sleeping | DL working, RT sleeping |
-----------------------------------------------------------
| (1) duration = n | (2) duration = n | (repeat)
|--------------------------|------------------------------|
| (rt_bw timer is running) | (rt_bw timer is not running) |
No time for fair tasks at all.
While this can happen during the first period, if rq is always backlogged,
RT tasks won't have the opportunity to execute anymore: rt_time reached
rt_runtime during (1), suppose after (2) RT is enqueued back, it gets
throttled since rt timer didn't fire, replenishment is from now on eaten up
by DL tasks that accrue their execution on rt_time (while rt timer is
active - we have an RT task waiting for replenishment). FAIR tasks are
not touched after this first period. Ok, this is not ideal, and the situation
is even worse!
What above (the nice case), practically never happens in reality, where
your rt timer is not aligned to tasks periods, tasks are in general not
periodic, etc.. Long story short, you always risk to overload your system.
This patch is based on Peter's idea, but exploits an additional fact:
if you don't have RT tasks enqueued, it makes little sense to continue
incrementing rt_time once you reached the upper limit (DL tasks have their
own mechanism for throttling).
This cures both problems:
- no matter how many DL instances in the past, you'll have an rt_time
slightly above rt_runtime when an RT task is enqueued, and from that
point on (after the first replenishment), the task will normally execute;
- you can still eat up all bandwidth during the first period, but not
anymore after that, remember that DL execution will increment rt_time
till the upper limit is reached.
The situation is still not perfect! But, we have a simple solution for now,
that limits how much you can jeopardize your system, as we keep working
towards the right answer: RT groups scheduled using deadline servers.

dequeue_entity() is called when p->on_rq and sets se->on_rq = 0
which appears to guarentee that the !se->on_rq condition is met.
If the task has done set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE) without
schedule() the second condition will be met and vruntime will be
incorrectly adjusted twice.
In certain cases this can result in the task's vruntime never increasing

CPU time.
This patch changes switched_from_fair() to use !p->on_rq instead of

We hit one rare case below:
T1 calling disable_irq(), but hanging at synchronize_irq()
always;
The corresponding irq thread is in sleeping state;
And all CPUs are in idle state;
After analysis, we found there is one possible scenerio which
causes T1 is waiting there forever:
CPU0 CPU1
synchronize_irq()
wait_event()
spin_lock()
atomic_dec_and_test(&threads_active)
insert the __wait into queue
spin_unlock()
if(waitqueue_active)
atomic_read(&threads_active)
wake_up()
Here after inserted the __wait into queue on CPU0, and before
test if queue is empty on CPU1, there is no barrier, it maybe
cause it is not visible for CPU1 immediately, although CPU0 has
updated the queue list.
It is similar for CPU0 atomic_read() threads_active also.
So we'd need one smp_mb() before waitqueue_active.that, but removing
the waitqueue_active() check solves it as wel l and it makes
things simple and clear.

iff r1 and r2 are the same type (most callers already checked this
separately) and the r1 address range completely contains r2.
In addition, the new resource_contains() checks that both r1 and r2 have
addresses assigned to them. If a resource is IORESOURCE_UNSET, it doesn't
have a valid address and can't contain or be contained by another resource.
Some callers already check this or for res->start.

were sourcing the trace header in advance of rcu.h itself,
as seen in the context of this diff. There were also some
inconsistencies as to whether it was or wasn't sourced based
on the parent tracing Kconfig.
Rather than "fix" it at each use site, and have inconsistent
use based on whether "#ifdef CONFIG_RCU_TRACE" was used or not,
lets just source the trace header just once, in the actual consumer
of it, which is rcu.h itself. We include it unconditionally, as

When a new process is forked, cgroup_fork() associates it with the
css_set of its parent but doesn't link it into it. After the new
process is linked to tasklist, cgroup_post_fork() does the linking.
This is problematic for cgroup_transfer_tasks() as there's no way to
tell whether there are tasks which are pointing to a css_set but not
linked yet. It is impossible to implement an operation which transfer
all tasks of a cgroup to another and the current
cgroup_transfer_tasks() can easily be tricked into leaving a newly
forked process behind if it gets called between cgroup_fork() and
cgroup_post_fork().
Let's make association with a css_set and linking atomic by moving it
to cgroup_post_fork(). cgroup_fork() sets child->cgroups to
init_css_set as a placeholder and cgroup_post_fork() is updated to
perform both the association with the parent's cgroup and linking
there. This means that a newly created task will point to
init_css_set without holding a ref to it much like what it does on the
exit path. Empty cg_list is used to indicate that the task isn't
holding a ref to the associated css_set.
This fixes an actual bug with cgroup_transfer_tasks(); however, I'm
not marking it for -stable. The whole thing is broken in multiple
other ways which require invasive updates to fix and I don't think
it's worthwhile to bother with backporting this particular one.
Fortunately, the only user is cpuset and these bugs don't crash the

Currently, process / task migration is a single operation which may
fail depending on memory pressure or the involved controllers'
->can_attach() callbacks. One problem with this approach is migration
of multiple targets. It's impossible to tell whether a given target
will be successfully migrated beforehand and cgroup core can't keep
track of enough states to roll back after intermediate failure.
This is already an issue with cgroup_transfer_tasks(). Also, we're
gonna need multiple target migration for unified hierarchy.
This patch splits migration into four stages -
cgroup_migrate_add_src(), cgroup_migrate_prepare_dst(),
cgroup_migrate() and cgroup_migrate_finish(), where
cgroup_migrate_prepare_dst() performs all the operations which may
fail due to allocation failure without actually migrating the target.
The four separate stages mean that, disregarding ->can_attach()
failures, the success or failure of multi target migration can be
determined before performing any actual migration. If preparations of
all targets succeed, the whole thing will succeed. If not, the whole
operation can fail without any side-effect.
Since the previous patch to use css_set->mg_tasks to keep track of
migration targets, the only thing which may need memory allocation
during migration is the target css_sets. cgroup_migrate_prepare()
pins all source and target css_sets and link them up. Note that this
can be performed without holding threadgroup_lock even if the target
is a process. As long as cgroup_mutex is held, no new css_set can be
put into play.

Currently, while migrating tasks from one cgroup to another,
cgroup_attach_task() builds a flex array of all target tasks;
unfortunately, this has a couple issues.
* Flex array has size limit. On 64bit, struct task_and_cgroup is
24bytes making the flex element limit around 87k. It is a high
number but not impossible to hit. This means that the current
cgroup implementation can't migrate a process with more than 87k
threads.
* Process migration involves memory allocation whose size is dependent
on the number of threads the process has. This means that cgroup
core can't guarantee success or failure of multi-process migrations
as memory allocation failure can happen in the middle. This is in
part because cgroup can't grab threadgroup locks of multiple
processes at the same time, so when there are multiple processes to
migrate, it is imposible to tell how many tasks are to be migrated
beforehand.
Note that this already affects cgroup_transfer_tasks(). cgroup
currently cannot guarantee atomic success or failure of the
operation. It may fail in the middle and after such failure cgroup
doesn't have enough information to roll back properly. It just
aborts with some tasks migrated and others not.
To resolve the situation, this patch updates the migration path to use
task->cg_list to track target tasks. The previous patch already added
css_set->mg_tasks and updated iterations in non-migration paths to
include them during task migration. This patch updates migration path
to actually make use of it.
Instead of putting onto a flex_array, each target task is moved from
its css_set->tasks list to css_set->mg_tasks and the migration path
keeps trace of all the source css_sets and the associated cgroups.
Once all source css_sets are determined, the destination css_set for
each is determined, linked to the matching source css_set and put on a
separate list.
To iterate the target tasks, migration path just needs to iterat
through either the source or target css_sets, depending on whether
migration has been committed or not, and the tasks on their ->mg_tasks
lists. cgroup_taskset is updated to contain the list_heads for source
and target css_sets and the iteration cursor. cgroup_taskset_*() are
accordingly updated to walk through css_sets and their ->mg_tasks.
This resolves the above listed issues with moderate additional
complexity.

To resolve the situation, we're going to use task->cg_list during

will be linked into a dedicated migration list_head on the owning
css_set. Tasks on the migration list are treated the same as tasks on
the usual tasks list; however, being on a separate list allows cgroup
migration code path to keep track of the target tasks by simply
keeping the list of css_sets with tasks being migrated, making
unpredictable dynamic allocation unnecessary.
In prepartion of such migration path update, this patch introduces
css_set->mg_tasks list and updates css_set task iterations so that
they walk both css_set->tasks and ->mg_tasks. Note that ->mg_tasks

The name __smp_call_function_single() doesn't tell much about the
properties of this function, especially when compared to
smp_call_function_single().
The comments above the implementation are also misleading. The main
point of this function is actually not to be able to embed the csd
in an object. This is actually a requirement that result from the
purpose of this function which is to raise an IPI asynchronously.
As such it can be called with interrupts disabled. And this feature
comes at the cost of the caller who then needs to serialize the
IPIs on this csd.
Lets rename the function and enhance the comments so that they reflect
these properties.

The main point of calling __smp_call_function_single() is to send
an IPI in a pure asynchronous way. By embedding a csd in an object,
a caller can send the IPI without waiting for a previous one to complete
as is required by smp_call_function_single() for example. As such,
sending this kind of IPI can be safe even when irqs are disabled.
This flexibility comes at the expense of the caller who then needs to
synchronize the csd lifecycle by himself and make sure that IPIs on a
single csd are serialized.
This is how __smp_call_function_single() works when wait = 0 and this
usecase is relevant.
Now there don't seem to be any usecase with wait = 1 that can't be
covered by smp_call_function_single() instead, which is safer. Lets look
at the two possible scenario:
1) The user calls __smp_call_function_single(wait = 1) on a csd embedded
in an object. It looks like a nice and convenient pattern at the first
sight because we can then retrieve the object from the IPI handler easily.
But actually it is a waste of memory space in the object since the csd
can be allocated from the stack by smp_call_function_single(wait = 1)
and the object can be passed an the IPI argument.
Besides that, embedding the csd in an object is more error prone
because the caller must take care of the serialization of the IPIs
for this csd.
2) The user calls __smp_call_function_single(wait = 1) on a csd that
is allocated on the stack. It's ok but smp_call_function_single()
can do it as well and it already takes care of the allocation on the
stack. Again it's more simple and less error prone.
Therefore, using the underscore prepend API version with wait = 1
is a bad pattern and a sign that the caller can do safer and more
simple.
There was a single user of that which has just been converted.
So lets remove this option to discourage further users.

In order to remotely restart the watchdog hrtimer, update_timers()
allocates a csd on the stack and pass it to __smp_call_function_single().
There is no partcular need, however, for a specific csd here. Lets
simplify that a little by calling smp_call_function_single()
which can already take care of the csd allocation by itself.

Move this function closer to __smp_call_function_single(). These functions
have very similar behavior and should be displayed in the same block
for clarity.

__smp_call_function_single() and smp_call_function_single() share some
code that can be factorized: execute inline when the target is local,
check if the target is online, lock the csd, call generic_exec_single().
Lets move the common parts to generic_exec_single().

Align __smp_call_function_single() with smp_call_function_single() so
that it also checks whether requested cpu is still online.
