2008-02-05exec: rework the group exit and fix the race with killOleg Nesterov
As Roland pointed out, we have the very old problem with exec. de_thread() sets SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT, kills other threads, changes ->group_leader and then clears signal->flags. All signals (even fatal ones) sent in this window (which is not too small) will be lost. With this patch exec doesn't abuse SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT. signal_group_exit(), the new helper, should be used to detect exit_group() or exec() in progress. It can have more users, but this patch does only strictly necessary changes.

2008-02-05remove handle_group_stop() in favor of do_signal_stop()Oleg Nesterov
Every time we set SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT or clear SIGNAL_STOP_DEQUEUED we also reset ->group_stop_count. This means that the SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT check in handle_group_stop() is not needed, and do_signal_stop() should check SIGNAL_STOP_DEQUEUED only when ->group_stop_count == 0. With these changes handle_group_stop() becomes the subset of do_signal_stop(), we can kill it and use do_signal_stop() instead. Also, a preparation for the next patch.

2008-02-05__group_complete_signal(): fix coredump with group stop raceOleg Nesterov
When __group_complete_signal() sees sig_kernel_coredump() signal, it starts the group stop, but sets ->group_exit_task = t in a hope that "t" will actually dequeue this signal and invoke do_coredump(). However, by the time "t" enters get_signal_to_deliver() it is possible that the signal was blocked/ignored or we have another pending !SIG_KERNEL_COREDUMP_MASK signal which will be dequeued first. This means the task could be stopped but not killed. Remove this code from __group_complete_signal(). Note also this patch removes the bogus signal_wake_up(t, 1). This thread can't be STOPPED/TRACED, note the corresponding check in wants_signal().

2008-02-05clone: prepare to recycle CLONE_STOPPEDAndrew Morton
Ulrich says that we never used this clone flags and that nothing should be using it. As we're down to only a single bit left in clone's flags argument, let's add a warning to check that no userspace is actually using it. Hopefully we will be able to recycle it. Roland said: CLONE_STOPPED was previously used by some NTPL versions when under thread_db (i.e. only when being actively debugged by gdb), but not for a long time now, and it never worked reliably when it was used. Removing it seems fine to me.

2008-02-03Fix ARM to play nicely with generic Instrumentation menuMathieu Desnoyers
The conflicting commit for move-kconfiginstrumentation-to-arch-kconfig-and-init-kconfig.patch is the ARM fix from Linus : commit 38ad9aebe70dc72df08851bbd1620d89329129ba He just seemed to agree that my approach (just putting the missing ARM config options in arch/arm/Kconfig) works too. The main advantage it has is that it is smaller, does not need a cleanup in the future and does not break the following patches unnecessarily. It's just been discussed here http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/1/15/267 However, Linus might prefer to stay with his own patch and I would totally understand it that late in the release cycle. Therefore I submit this for the next release cycle.

2008-02-02kobject: Always build in kernel/ksysfs.o.Paul Mundt
kernel/ksysfs.c seems to be a random dumping group for misc globals that the rest of the tree depend on. This has caused problems with exports in the past when sysfs is disabled, which can already be observed in commit-id 51107301b629640f9ab76fe23bf385e187b9ac29. The latest one is the kernel_kobj usage, which presently results in: fs/built-in.o: In function `debugfs_init': inode.c:(.init.text+0xc34): undefined reference to `kernel_kobj' make: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1 kernel/ksysfs.c itself at this point only contains globals and some basic sysfs initialization, the sysfs initialization code is optimized out when we build with sysfs disabled. Given that, it's easier to just build in unconditionally, rather than trying to find some other random place to dump and initialize the globals. Additionally, the current trend seems to be decoupling of kobjects from sysfs, in which case it still makes sense to perform the kernel_kobj initialization that happens here even if sysfs is disabled, as lib/kobject.o is built-in unconditionally.

2008-02-01Suspend: Invoke suspend notifications after console switchJohannes Berg
In order to fix APM emulation it is necessary to enable apm-emulation notifications for suspends triggered in various ways via the suspend notifiers. However, this will cause the systems using APM emulation to lock up between X being needed to switch away from the VT and X already waiting for resume in the APM ioctl. This patch moves the console switch (if enabled) before the suspend notification (and after the resume notification) to avoid this issue.

2008-02-01Suspend: Introduce begin() and end() callbacksRafael J. Wysocki
On ACPI systems the target state set by acpi_pm_set_target() is reset by acpi_pm_finish(), but that need not be called if the suspend fails.  All platforms that use the .set_target() global suspend callback are affected by analogous issues. For this reason, we need an additional global suspend callback that will reset the target state regardless of whether or not the suspend is successful.  Also, it is reasonable to rename the .set_target() callback, since it will be used for a different purpose on ACPI systems (due to ACPI 1.0x code ordering requirements). Introduce the global suspend callback .end() to be executed at the end of the suspend sequence and rename the .set_target() global suspend callback to .begin(). Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

Modify the hibernation userland interface by adding two new ioctls to it, SNAPSHOT_PLATFORM_SUPPORT and SNAPSHOT_POWER_OFF, that can be used, respectively, to switch the hibernation platform support on/off and to make the kernel transition the system to the hibernation state (eg. ACPI S4) using the platform (eg. ACPI) driver. These ioctls are intended to replace the misdesigned SNAPSHOT_PMOPS ioctl, which from now is regarded as obsolete and will be removed in the future.

2008-02-01Hibernation: Introduce SNAPSHOT_GET_IMAGE_SIZE ioctlRafael J. Wysocki
Add a new ioctl, SNAPSHOT_GET_IMAGE_SIZE, returning the size of the (just created) hibernation image, to the hibernation userland interface. This ioctl is necessary so that the userland utilities using the interface need not access the hibernation image header, owned by the kernel, in order to obtain the size of the image.

2008-02-01[AUDIT] ratelimit printk messages auditEric Paris
some printk messages from the audit system can become excessive. This patch ratelimits those messages. It was found that messages, such as the audit backlog lost printk message could flood the logs to the point that a machine could take an nmi watchdog hit or otherwise become unresponsive.

2008-02-01[AUDIT] create context if auditing was ever enabledEric Paris
Disabling audit at runtime by auditctl doesn't mean that we can stop allocating contexts for new processes; we don't want to miss them when that sucker is reenabled. (based on work from Al Viro in the RHEL kernel series) Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
