commit 910ffdb18a6408e14febbb6e4b6840fd2c928c82 upstream.

Cleanup and preparation for the next change.

signal_wake_up(resume => true) is overused. None of ptrace/jctl callers
actually want to wakeup a TASK_WAKEKILL task, but they can't specify the
necessary mask.

Turn signal_wake_up() into signal_wake_up_state(state), reintroduce
signal_wake_up() as a trivial helper, and add ptrace_signal_wake_up()
which adds __TASK_TRACED.

This way ptrace_signal_wake_up() can work "inside" ptrace_request()
even if the tracee doesn't have the TASK_WAKEKILL bit set.

commit 8323f26ce3425460769605a6aece7a174edaa7d1 upstream

Stefan reported a crash on a kernel before a3e5d1091c1 ("sched:
Don't call task_group() too many times in set_task_rq()"), he
found the reason to be that the multiple task_group()
invocations in set_task_rq() returned different values.

Looking at all that I found a lack of serialization and plain
wrong comments.

The below tries to fix it using an extra pointer which is
updated under the appropriate scheduler locks. Its not pretty,
but I can't really see another way given how all the cgroup
stuff works.

sched/nohz: Fix rq->cpu_load calculations some more 2012-08-02T13:37:38+00:00 Peter Zijlstra a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl 2012-05-17T15:15:29+00:00 c812fe636b6e1e3b3b409b316157f56054252e25 commit 5aaa0b7a2ed5b12692c9ffb5222182bd558d3146 upstream. Follow up on commit 556061b00 ("sched/nohz: Fix rq->cpu_load[] calculations") since while that fixed the busy case it regressed the mostly idle case. Add a callback from the nohz exit to also age the rq->cpu_load[] array. This closes the hole where either there was no nohz load balance pass during the nohz, or there was a 'significant' amount of idle time between the last nohz balance and the nohz exit. So we'll update unconditionally from the tick to not insert any accidental 0 load periods while busy, and we try and catch up from nohz idle balance and nohz exit. Both these are still prone to missing a jiffy, but that has always been the case.

cpuset: mm: reduce large amounts of memory barrier related damage v3 2012-08-02T13:37:36+00:00 Mel Gorman mgorman@suse.de 2012-03-21T23:34:11+00:00 e8bf81d11ffae58e78a1d8f58f51accdae627c65 commit cc9a6c8776615f9c194ccf0b63a0aa5628235545 upstream. Stable note: Not tracked in Bugzilla. [get|put]_mems_allowed() is extremely expensive and severely impacted page allocator performance. This is part of a series of patches that reduce page allocator overhead. Commit c0ff7453bb5c ("cpuset,mm: fix no node to alloc memory when changing cpuset's mems") wins a super prize for the largest number of memory barriers entered into fast paths for one commit. [get|put]_mems_allowed is incredibly heavy with pairs of full memory barriers inserted into a number of hot paths. This was detected while investigating at large page allocator slowdown introduced some time after 2.6.32. The largest portion of this overhead was shown by oprofile to be at an mfence introduced by this commit into the page allocator hot path. For extra style points, the commit introduced the use of yield() in an implementation of what looks like a spinning mutex. This patch replaces the full memory barriers on both read and write sides with a sequence counter with just read barriers on the fast path side. This is much cheaper on some architectures, including x86. The main bulk of the patch is the retry logic if the nodemask changes in a manner that can cause a false failure. While updating the nodemask, a check is made to see if a false failure is a risk. If it is, the sequence number gets bumped and parallel allocators will briefly stall while the nodemask update takes place. In a page fault test microbenchmark, oprofile samples from __alloc_pages_nodemask went from 4.53% of all samples to 1.15%.

cputimer->cputime a raw lock conflicted with the ABBA fix in commit
bcd5cff7216f ("cputimer: Cure lock inversion").
