2009-09-24include/linux/unaligned/{l,b}e_byteshift.h: fix usage for compressed kernelsAlbin Tonnerre
When unaligned accesses are required for uncompressing a kernel (such as for LZO decompression on ARM in a patch that follows), including <linux/kernel.h> causes issues as it brings in a lot of things that are not available in the decompression environment. linux/kernel.h brings at least: extern int console_printk[]; extern const char hex_asc[]; which causes errors at link-time as they are not available when compiling the pre-boot environement. There are also a few others: arch/arm/boot/compressed/misc.o: In function `valid_user_regs': arch/arm/include/asm/ptrace.h:158: undefined reference to `elf_hwcap' arch/arm/boot/compressed/misc.o: In function `console_silent': include/linux/kernel.h:292: undefined reference to `console_printk' arch/arm/boot/compressed/misc.o: In function `console_verbose': include/linux/kernel.h:297: undefined reference to `console_printk' arch/arm/boot/compressed/misc.o: In function `pack_hex_byte': include/linux/kernel.h:360: undefined reference to `hex_asc' arch/arm/boot/compressed/misc.o: In function `hweight_long': include/linux/bitops.h:45: undefined reference to `hweight32' arch/arm/boot/compressed/misc.o: In function `__cmpxchg_local_generic': include/asm-generic/cmpxchg-local.h:21: undefined reference to `wrong_size_cmpxchg' include/asm-generic/cmpxchg-local.h:42: undefined reference to `wrong_size_cmpxchg' arch/arm/boot/compressed/misc.o: In function `__xchg': arch/arm/include/asm/system.h:309: undefined reference to `__bad_xchg' However, those files apparently use nothing from <linux/kernel.h>, all they need is the declaration of types such as u32 or u64, so <linux/types.h> should be enough Signed-off-by: Albin Tonnerre <albin.tonnerre@free-electrons.com> Cc: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Cc: Russell King <rmk@arm.linux.org.uk> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: "H.

2009-09-24fcntl: add F_[SG]ETOWN_EXPeter Zijlstra
In order to direct the SIGIO signal to a particular thread of a multi-threaded application we cannot, like suggested by the manpage, put a TID into the regular fcntl(F_SETOWN) call. It will still be send to the whole process of which that thread is part. Since people do want to properly direct SIGIO we introduce F_SETOWN_EX. The need to direct SIGIO comes from self-monitoring profiling such as with perf-counters. Perf-counters uses SIGIO to notify that new sample data is available. If the signal is delivered to the same task that generated the new sample it can augment that data by inspecting the task's user-space state right after it returns from the kernel. This is esp. convenient for interpreted or virtual machine driven environments. Both F_SETOWN_EX and F_GETOWN_EX take a pointer to a struct f_owner_ex as argument: struct f_owner_ex { int type; pid_t pid; }; Where type is one of F_OWNER_TID, F_OWNER_PID or F_OWNER_GID.

2009-09-24exec: fix set_binfmt() vs sys_delete_module() raceOleg Nesterov
sys_delete_module() can set MODULE_STATE_GOING after search_binary_handler() does try_module_get(). In this case set_binfmt()->try_module_get() fails but since none of the callers check the returned error, the task will run with the wrong old ->binfmt. The proper fix should change all ->load_binary() methods, but we can rely on fact that the caller must hold a reference to binfmt->module and use __module_get() which never fails.

2009-09-24signals: tracehook_notify_jctl changeRoland McGrath
This changes tracehook_notify_jctl() so it's called with the siglock held, and changes its argument and return value definition. These clean-ups make it a better fit for what new tracing hooks need to check. Tracing needs the siglock here, held from the time TASK_STOPPED was set, to avoid potential SIGCONT races if it wants to allow any blocking in its tracing hooks. This also folds the finish_stop() function into its caller do_signal_stop(). The function is short, called only once and only unconditionally. It aids readability to fold it in.

2009-09-24ptrace: __ptrace_detach: do __wake_up_parent() if we reap the traceeOleg Nesterov
The bug is old, it wasn't cause by recent changes. Test case: static void *tfunc(void *arg) { int pid = (long)arg; assert(ptrace(PTRACE_ATTACH, pid, NULL, NULL) == 0); kill(pid, SIGKILL); sleep(1); return NULL; } int main(void) { pthread_t th; long pid = fork(); if (!pid) pause(); signal(SIGCHLD, SIG_IGN); assert(pthread_create(&th, NULL, tfunc, (void*)pid) == 0); int r = waitpid(-1, NULL, __WNOTHREAD); printf("waitpid: %d %m\n", r); return 0; } Before the patch this program hangs, after this patch waitpid() correctly fails with errno == -ECHILD. The problem is, __ptrace_detach() reaps the EXIT_ZOMBIE tracee if its ->real_parent is our sub-thread and we ignore SIGCHLD. But in this case we should wake up other threads which can sleep in do_wait().

2009-09-24memory controller: soft limit reclaim on contentionBalbir Singh
Implement reclaim from groups over their soft limit Permit reclaim from memory cgroups on contention (via the direct reclaim path). memory cgroup soft limit reclaim finds the group that exceeds its soft limit by the largest number of pages and reclaims pages from it and then reinserts the cgroup into its correct place in the rbtree. Add additional checks to mem_cgroup_hierarchical_reclaim() to detect long loops in case all swap is turned off. The code has been refactored and the loop check (loop < 2) has been enhanced for soft limits. For soft limits, we try to do more targetted reclaim. Instead of bailing out after two loops, the routine now reclaims memory proportional to the size by which the soft limit is exceeded. The proportion has been empirically determined.

2009-09-24memory controller: soft limit organize cgroupsBalbir Singh
Organize cgroups over soft limit in a RB-Tree Introduce an RB-Tree for storing memory cgroups that are over their soft limit. The overall goal is to 1. Add a memory cgroup to the RB-Tree when the soft limit is exceeded. We are careful about updates, updates take place only after a particular time interval has passed 2. We remove the node from the RB-Tree when the usage goes below the soft limit The next set of patches will exploit the RB-Tree to get the group that is over its soft limit by the largest amount and reclaim from it, when we face memory contention.

2009-09-24memory controller: soft limit interfaceBalbir Singh
Add an interface to allow get/set of soft limits. Soft limits for memory plus swap controller (memsw) is currently not supported. Resource counters have been enhanced to support soft limits and new type RES_SOFT_LIMIT has been added. Unlike hard limits, soft limits can be directly set and do not need any reclaim or checks before setting them to a newer value. Kamezawa-San raised a question as to whether soft limit should belong to res_counter. Since all resources understand the basic concepts of hard and soft limits, it is justified to add soft limits here. Soft limits are a generic resource usage feature, even file system quotas support soft limits.

Alter the ss->can_attach and ss->attach functions to be able to deal with a whole threadgroup at a time, for use in cgroup_attach_proc. (This is a pre-patch to cgroup-procs-writable.patch.) Currently, new mode of the attach function can only tell the subsystem about the old cgroup of the threadgroup leader. No subsystem currently needs that information for each thread that's being moved, but if one were to be added (for example, one that counts tasks within a group) this bit would need to be reworked a bit to tell the subsystem the right information.

2009-09-24cgroups: ensure correct concurrent opening/reading of pidlists across pid ↵Ben Blum
namespaces Previously there was the problem in which two processes from different pid namespaces reading the tasks or procs file could result in one process seeing results from the other's namespace. Rather than one pidlist for each file in a cgroup, we now keep a list of pidlists keyed by namespace and file type (tasks versus procs) in which entries are placed on demand. Each pidlist has its own lock, and that the pidlists themselves are passed around in the seq_file's private pointer means we don't have to touch the cgroup or its master list except when creating and destroying entries.

2009-09-24cgroups: revert "cgroups: fix pid namespace bug"Paul Menage
The following series adds a "cgroup.procs" file to each cgroup that reports unique tgids rather than pids, and allows all threads in a threadgroup to be atomically moved to a new cgroup. The subsystem "attach" interface is modified to support attaching whole threadgroups at a time, which could introduce potential problems if any subsystem were to need to access the old cgroup of every thread being moved. The attach interface may need to be revised if this becomes the case. Also added is functionality for read/write locking all CLONE_THREAD fork()ing within a threadgroup, by means of an rwsem that lives in the sighand_struct, for per-threadgroup-ness and also for sharing a cacheline with the sighand's atomic count. This scheme should introduce no extra overhead in the fork path when there's no contention. The final patch reveals potential for a race when forking before a subsystem's attach function is called - one potential solution in case any subsystem has this problem is to hang on to the group's fork mutex through the attach() calls, though no subsystem yet demonstrates need for an extended critical section.

We're not forcing removal of the old cpu_ functions, but we might as well delete the now-unused ones. Especially CPUMASK_ALLOC and friends. I actually got a phone call (!) from a hacker who thought I had introduced them as the new cpumask API. He seemed bewildered that I had lost all taste.

2009-09-24cpumask: remove unused mask field from struct irqaction.Rusty Russell
Up until 1.1.83, the primitive human tribes used struct sigaction for interrupts. The sa_mask field was overloaded to hold a pointer to the name. When someone created the new "struct irqaction" they carried across the "mask" field as a kind of ancestor worship: the fact that it was unused makes clear its spiritual significance.

2009-09-24cpumask: remove dangerous CPU_MASK_ALL_PTRRusty Russell
(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). Now all callers are removed, we kill it.

2009-09-239p: Add fscache support to 9pAbhishek Kulkarni
This patch adds a persistent, read-only caching facility for 9p clients using the FS-Cache caching backend. When the fscache facility is enabled, each inode is associated with a corresponding vcookie which is an index into the FS-Cache indexing tree. The FS-Cache indexing tree is indexed at 3 levels: - session object associated with each mount. - inode/vcookie - actual data (pages) A cache tag is chosen randomly for each session. These tags can be read off /sys/fs/9p/caches and can be passed as a mount-time parameter to re-attach to the specified caching session.
