85dc8f05c9 time: Fix casting issue in timekeeping_forward_now
arch_gettimeoffset returns a u32 value which when shifted by tk->shift
can overflow. This issue was introduced with 1e75fa8be (time: Condense
timekeeper.xtime into xtime_sec)

Cast it to u64 first.

784ffcbb96 time: Ensure we normalize the timekeeper in tk_xtime_add
Andreas noticed problems with resume on specific hardware after commit
1e75fa8b (time: Condense timekeeper.xtime into xtime_sec) combined
with commit b44d50dca (time: Fix casting issue in tk_set_xtime and
tk_xtime_add)

After some digging I realized we aren't normalizing the timekeeper
after the add. Add the missing normalize call.

57b30ae77b workqueue: reimplement cancel_delayed_work() using try_to_grab_pending()
cancel_delayed_work() can't be called from IRQ handlers due to its use
of del_timer_sync() and can't cancel work items which are already
transferred from timer to worklist.

Also, unlike other flush and cancel functions, a canceled delayed_work
would still point to the last associated cpu_workqueue.  If the
workqueue is destroyed afterwards and the work item is re-used on a
different workqueue, the queueing code can oops trying to dereference
already freed cpu_workqueue.

This patch reimplements cancel_delayed_work() using
try_to_grab_pending() and set_work_cpu_and_clear_pending().  This
allows the function to be called from IRQ handlers and makes its
behavior consistent with other flush / cancel functions.

e0aecdd874 workqueue: use irqsafe timer for delayed_work
Up to now, for delayed_works, try_to_grab_pending() couldn't be used
from IRQ handlers because IRQs may happen while
delayed_work_timer_fn() is in progress leading to indefinite -EAGAIN.

This patch makes delayed_work use the new TIMER_IRQSAFE flag for
delayed_work->timer.  This makes try_to_grab_pending() and thus
mod_delayed_work_on() safe to call from IRQ handlers.

c5f66e99b7 timer: Implement TIMER_IRQSAFE
Timer internals are protected with irq-safe locks but timer execution
isn't, so a timer being dequeued for execution and its execution
aren't atomic against IRQs.  This makes it impossible to wait for its
completion from IRQ handlers and difficult to shoot down a timer from
IRQ handlers.

This issue caused some issues for delayed_work interface.  Because
there's no way to reliably shoot down delayed_work->timer from IRQ
handlers, __cancel_delayed_work() can't share the logic to steal the
target delayed_work with cancel_delayed_work_sync(), and can only
steal delayed_works which are on queued on timer.  Similarly, the
pending mod_delayed_work() can't be used from IRQ handlers.

This patch adds a new timer flag TIMER_IRQSAFE, which makes the timer
to be executed without enabling IRQ after dequeueing such that its
dequeueing and execution are atomic against IRQ handlers.

This makes it safe to wait for the timer's completion from IRQ
handlers, for example, using del_timer_sync().  It can never be
executing on the local CPU and if executing on other CPUs it won't be
interrupted until done.

This will enable simplifying delayed_work cancel/mod interface.

fc683995a6 timer: Clean up timer initializers
Over time, timer initializers became messy with unnecessarily
duplicated code which are inconsistently spread across timer.h and
timer.c.

This patch cleans up timer initializers.

* timer.c::__init_timer() is renamed to do_init_timer().

* __TIMER_INITIALIZER() added.  It takes @flags and all initializers
  are wrappers around it.

* init_timer[_on_stack]_key() now take @flags.

* __init_timer[_on_stack]() added.  They take @flags and all init
  macros are wrappers around them.

* __setup_timer[_on_stack]() added.  It uses __init_timer() and takes
  @flags.  All setup macros are wrappers around the two.

Note that this patch doesn't add missing init/setup combinations -
e.g. init_timer_deferrable_on_stack().  Adding missing ones is
trivial.

c7a3a88c93 uprobes: Fix mmap_region()'s mm->mm_rb corruption if uprobe_mmap() fails
This patch fixes:

  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=843640

If mmap_region()->uprobe_mmap() fails, unmap_and_free_vma path
does unmap_region() but does not remove the soon-to-be-freed vma
from rb tree. Actually there are more problems but this is how
William noticed this bug.

Perhaps we could do do_munmap() + return in this case, but in
fact it is simply wrong to abort if uprobe_mmap() fails. Until
at least we move the !UPROBE_COPY_INSN code from
install_breakpoint() to uprobe_register().

For example, uprobe_mmap()->install_breakpoint() can fail if the
probed insn is not supported (remember, uprobe_register()
succeeds if nobody mmaps inode/offset), mmap() should not fail
in this case.

dup_mmap()->uprobe_mmap() is wrong too by the same reason,
fork() can race with uprobe_register() and fail for no reason if
it wins the race and does install_breakpoint() first.

And, if nothing else, both mmap_region() and dup_mmap() return
success if uprobe_mmap() fails. Change them to ignore the error
code from uprobe_mmap().

dbf2576e37 workqueue: make all workqueues non-reentrant
By default, each per-cpu part of a bound workqueue operates separately
and a work item may be executing concurrently on different CPUs.  The
behavior avoids some cross-cpu traffic but leads to subtle weirdities
and not-so-subtle contortions in the API.

* There's no sane usefulness in allowing a single work item to be
  executed concurrently on multiple CPUs.  People just get the
  behavior unintentionally and get surprised after learning about it.
  Most either explicitly synchronize or use non-reentrant/ordered
  workqueue but this is error-prone.

* flush_work() can't wait for multiple instances of the same work item
  on different CPUs.  If a work item is executing on cpu0 and then
  queued on cpu1, flush_work() can only wait for the one on cpu1.

  Unfortunately, work items can easily cross CPU boundaries
  unintentionally when the queueing thread gets migrated.  This means
  that if multiple queuers compete, flush_work() can't even guarantee
  that the instance queued right before it is finished before
  returning.

* flush_work_sync() was added to work around some of the deficiencies
  of flush_work().  In addition to the usual flushing, it ensures that
  all currently executing instances are finished before returning.
  This operation is expensive as it has to walk all CPUs and at the
  same time fails to address competing queuer case.

  Incorrectly using flush_work() when flush_work_sync() is necessary
  is an easy error to make and can lead to bugs which are difficult to
  reproduce.

* Similar problems exist for flush_delayed_work[_sync]().

Other than the cross-cpu access concern, there's no benefit in
allowing parallel execution and it's plain silly to have this level of
contortion for workqueue which is widely used from core code to
extremely obscure drivers.

This patch makes all workqueues non-reentrant.  If a work item is
executing on a different CPU when queueing is requested, it is always
queued to that CPU.  This guarantees that any given work item can be
executing on one CPU at maximum and if a work item is queued and
executing, both are on the same CPU.

The only behavior change which may affect workqueue users negatively
is that non-reentrancy overrides the affinity specified by
queue_work_on().  On a reentrant workqueue, the affinity specified by
queue_work_on() is always followed.  Now, if the work item is
executing on one of the CPUs, the work item will be queued there
regardless of the requested affinity.  I've reviewed all workqueue
users which request explicit affinity, and, fortunately, none seems to
be crazy enough to exploit parallel execution of the same work item.

This adds an additional busy_hash lookup if the work item was
previously queued on a different CPU.  This shouldn't be noticeable
under any sane workload.  Work item queueing isn't a very
high-frequency operation and they don't jump across CPUs all the time.
In a micro benchmark to exaggerate this difference - measuring the
time it takes for two work items to repeatedly jump between two CPUs a
number (10M) of times with busy_hash table densely populated, the
difference was around 3%.

While the overhead is measureable, it is only visible in pathological
cases and the difference isn't huge.  This change brings much needed
sanity to workqueue and makes its behavior consistent with timer.  I
think this is the right tradeoff to make.

This enables significant simplification of workqueue API.
Simplification patches will follow.

baa36046d0 cputime: Consolidate vtime handling on context switch
The archs that implement virtual cputime accounting all
flush the cputime of a task when it gets descheduled
and sometimes set up some ground initialization for the
next task to account its cputime.

These archs all put their own hooks in their context
switch callbacks and handle the off-case themselves.

Consolidate this by creating a new account_switch_vtime()
callback called in generic code right after a context switch
and that these archs must implement to flush the prev task
cputime and initialize the next task cputime related state.

Merge alpha architecture update from Michael Cree:
 "The Alpha Maintainer, Matt Turner, is currently unavailable, so I have
  collected up patches that have been posted to the linux-alpha mailing
  list over the last couple of months, and are forwarding them to you in
  the hope that you are prepared to accept them via me.

  The patches by Al Viro and myself I have been running against kernels
  for two months now so have had quite a bit of testing.  All except one
  patch were intended for the 3.5 kernel but because of Matt's
  unavailability never got forwarded to you."

* emailed patches from Michael Cree <mcree@orcon.net.nz>: (9 commits)
  alpha: Fix fall-out from disintegrating asm/system.h
  Redefine ATOMIC_INIT and ATOMIC64_INIT to drop the casts
  alpha: fix fpu.h usage in userspace
  alpha/mm/fault.c: Port OOM changes to do_page_fault
  alpha: take kernel_execve() out of entry.S
  alpha: take a bunch of syscalls into osf_sys.c

be53db6e4e alpha: take a bunch of syscalls into osf_sys.c
New helper: current_thread_info().  Allows to do a bunch of odd syscalls
in C. While we are at it, there had never been a reason to do
osf_getpriority() in assembler.  We also get "namespace"-aware (read:
consistent with getuid(2), etc.) behaviour from getx?id() syscalls now.

7635d2fd7f workqueue: use system_highpri_wq for unbind_work
To speed cpu down processing up, use system_highpri_wq.
As scheduling priority of workers on it is higher than system_wq and
it is not contended by other normal works on this cpu, work on it
is processed faster than system_wq.

tj: CPU up/downs care quite a bit about latency these days.  This
    shouldn't hurt anything and makes sense.

e2b6a6d570 workqueue: use system_highpri_wq for highpri workers in rebind_workers()
In rebind_workers(), we do inserting a work to rebind to cpu for busy workers.
Currently, in this case, we use only system_wq. This makes a possible
error situation as there is mismatch between cwq->pool and worker->pool.

To prevent this, we should use system_highpri_wq for highpri worker
to match theses. This implements it.

1aabe902ca workqueue: introduce system_highpri_wq
Commit 3270476a6c ('workqueue: reimplement
WQ_HIGHPRI using a separate worker_pool') introduce separate worker pool
for HIGHPRI. When we handle busyworkers for gcwq, it can be normal worker
or highpri worker. But, we don't consider this difference in rebind_workers(),
we use just system_wq for highpri worker. It makes mismatch between
cwq->pool and worker->pool.

It doesn't make error in current implementation, but possible in the future.
Now, we introduce system_highpri_wq to use proper cwq for highpri workers
in rebind_workers(). Following patch fix this issue properly.

tj: Even apart from rebinding, having system_highpri_wq generally
    makes sense.

We assign cpu id into work struct's data field in __queue_delayed_work_on().
In current implementation, when work is come in first time,
current running cpu id is assigned.
If we do __queue_delayed_work_on() with CPU A on CPU B,
__queue_work() invoked in delayed_work_timer_fn() go into
the following sub-optimal path in case of WQ_NON_REENTRANT.

	gcwq = get_gcwq(cpu);
	if (wq->flags & WQ_NON_REENTRANT &&
		(last_gcwq = get_work_gcwq(work)) && last_gcwq != gcwq) {

Change lcpu to @cpu and rechange lcpu to local cpu if lcpu is WORK_CPU_UNBOUND.
It is sufficient to prevent to go into sub-optimal path.

But, if !(@wq->flag & WQ_UNBOUND) and @cpu is WORK_CPU_UNBOUND,

In case of @wq->flag & WQ_UNBOUND, above change is not occured,
therefore it is reasonable to correct it.

4e8b14526c time: Improve sanity checking of timekeeping inputs
Unexpected behavior could occur if the time is set to a value large
enough to overflow a 64bit ktime_t (which is something larger then the
year 2262).

Also unexpected behavior could occur if large negative offsets are
injected via adjtimex.

So this patch improves the sanity check timekeeping inputs by
improving the timespec_valid() check, and then makes better use of
timespec_valid() to make sure we don't set the time to an invalid
negative value or one that overflows ktime_t.

Note: This does not protect from setting the time close to overflowing
ktime_t and then letting natural accumulation cause the overflow.

a2140fc0cb audit: fix refcounting in audit-tree
Refcounting of fsnotify_mark in audit tree is broken.  E.g:

                              refcount
create_chunk
  alloc_chunk                 1
  fsnotify_add_mark           2

untag_chunk
  fsnotify_get_mark           3
  fsnotify_destroy_mark
    audit_tree_freeing_mark   2
  fsnotify_put_mark           1
  fsnotify_put_mark           0
  via destroy_list
    fsnotify_mark_destroy    -1

This was reported by various people as triggering Oops when stopping auditd.

We could just remove the put_mark from audit_tree_freeing_mark() but that would
break freeing via inode destruction.  So this patch simply omits a put_mark
after calling destroy_mark or adds a get_mark before.

The additional get_mark is necessary where there's no other put_mark after
fsnotify_destroy_mark() since it assumes that the caller is holding a reference
(or the inode is keeping the mark pinned, not the case here AFAICS).

4f82f45730 net ip6 flowlabel: Make owner a union of struct pid * and kuid_t
Correct a long standing omission and use struct pid in the owner
field of struct ip6_flowlabel when the share type is IPV6_FL_S_PROCESS.
This guarantees we don't have issues when pid wraparound occurs.

Use a kuid_t in the owner field of struct ip6_flowlabel when the
share type is IPV6_FL_S_USER to add user namespace support.

In /proc/net/ip6_flowlabel capture the current pid namespace when
opening the file and release the pid namespace when the file is
closed ensuring we print the pid owner value that is meaning to
the reader of the file.  Similarly use from_kuid_munged to print
uid values that are meaningful to the reader of the file.

This requires exporting pid_nr_ns so that ipv6 can continue to built
as a module.  Yoiks what silliness

23657bb192 workqueue: add missing wmb() in clear_work_data()
Any operation which clears PENDING should be preceded by a wmb to
guarantee that the next PENDING owner sees all the changes made before
PENDING release.

There are only two places where PENDING is cleared -
set_work_cpu_and_clear_pending() and clear_work_data().  The caller of
the former already does smp_wmb() but the latter doesn't have any.

Move the wmb above set_work_cpu_and_clear_pending() into it and add
one to clear_work_data().

There hasn't been any report related to this issue, and, given how
clear_work_data() is used, it is extremely unlikely to have caused any
actual problems on any architecture.

1265057fa0 workqueue: fix CPU binding of flush_delayed_work[_sync]()
delayed_work encodes the workqueue to use and the last CPU in
delayed_work->work.data while it's on timer.  The target CPU is
implicitly recorded as the CPU the timer is queued on and
delayed_work_timer_fn() queues delayed_work->work to the CPU it is
running on.

Unfortunately, this leaves flush_delayed_work[_sync]() no way to find
out which CPU the delayed_work was queued for when they try to
re-queue after killing the timer.  Currently, it chooses the local CPU
flush is running on.  This can unexpectedly move a delayed_work queued
on a specific CPU to another CPU and lead to subtle errors.

There isn't much point in trying to save several bytes in struct
delayed_work, which is already close to a hundred bytes on 64bit with
all debug options turned off.  This patch adds delayed_work->cpu to
remember the CPU it's queued for.

Note that if the timer is migrated during CPU down, the work item
could be queued to the downed global_cwq after this change.  As a
detached global_cwq behaves like an unbound one, this doesn't change
much for the delayed_work.

a35b6466aa sched, cgroup: Reduce rq->lock hold times for large cgroup hierarchies
Peter Portante reported that for large cgroup hierarchies (and or on
large CPU counts) we get immense lock contention on rq->lock and stuff
stops working properly.

His workload was a ton of processes, each in their own cgroup,
everybody idling except for a sporadic wakeup once every so often.

It was found that:

  schedule()
    idle_balance()
      load_balance()
        local_irq_save()
        double_rq_lock()
        update_h_load()
          walk_tg_tree(tg_load_down)
            tg_load_down()

Results in an entire cgroup hierarchy walk under rq->lock for every
new-idle balance and since new-idle balance isn't throttled this
results in a lot of work while holding the rq->lock.

This patch does two things, it removes the work from under rq->lock
based on the good principle of race and pray which is widely employed
in the load-balancer as a whole. And secondly it throttles the
update_h_load() calculation to max once per jiffy.

I considered excluding update_h_load() for new-idle balance
all-together, but purely relying on regular balance passes to update
this data might not work out under some rare circumstances where the
new-idle busiest isn't the regular busiest for a while (unlikely, but
a nightmare to debug if someone hits it and suffers).

f97f8f06a4 smpboot: Provide infrastructure for percpu hotplug threads
Provide a generic interface for setting up and tearing down percpu
threads.

On registration the threads for already online cpus are created and
started. On deregistration (modules) the threads are stoppped.

During hotplug operations the threads are created, started, parked and
unparked. The datastructure for registration provides a pointer to
percpu storage space and optional setup, cleanup, park, unpark
functions. These functions are called when the thread state changes.

Each implementation has to provide a function which is queried and
returns whether the thread should run and the thread function itself.

The core code handles all state transitions and avoids duplicated code
in the call sites.

5d01bbd111 rcu: Yield simpler
The rcu_yield() code is amazing. It's there to avoid starvation of the
system when lots of (boosting) work is to be done.

Now looking at the code it's functionality is:

 Make the thread SCHED_OTHER and very nice, i.e. get it out of the way
 Arm a timer with 2 ticks
 schedule()

Now if the system goes idle the rcu task returns, regains SCHED_FIFO
and plugs on. If the systems stays busy the timer fires and wakes a
per node kthread which in turn makes the per cpu thread SCHED_FIFO and
brings it back on the cpu. For the boosting thread the "make it FIFO"
bit is missing and it just runs some magic boost checks. Now this is a
lot of code with extra threads and complexity.

It's way simpler to let the tasks when they detect overload schedule
away for 2 ticks and defer the normal wakeup as long as they are in
yielded state and the cpu is not idle.

That solves the same problem and the only difference is that when the
cpu goes idle it's not guaranteed that the thread returns right away,
but it won't be longer out than two ticks, so no harm is done. If
that's an issue than it is way simpler just to wake the task from
idle as RCU has callbacks there anyway.

e3756477ae printk: Fix calculation of length used to discard records
While tracking down a weird buffer overflow issue in a program that
looked to be sane, I started double checking the length returned by
syslog(SYSLOG_ACTION_READ_ALL, ...) to make sure it wasn't overflowing
the buffer.

Sure enough, it was.  I saw this in strace:

  11339 syslog(SYSLOG_ACTION_READ_ALL, "<5>[244017.708129] REISERFS (dev"..., 8192) = 8279

It turns out that the loops that calculate how much space the entries
will take when they're copied don't include the newlines and prefixes
that will be included in the final output since prev flags is passed as
zero.

This patch properly accounts for it and fixes the overflow.

  - exclude_callchain_user to filter out user callchain

callchains are useless in this mode.

3c18c10bde tracing: Fix wakeup_rt self test on virtual machines
The warkeup_rt self test used msleep() calls to wait for real time
tasks to wake up and run. On bare-metal hardware, this was enough as
the scheduler should let the RT task run way before the non-RT task
wakes up from the msleep(). If it did not, then that would mean the
scheduler was broken.

But when dealing with virtual machines, this is a different story.
If the RT task wakes up on a VCPU, it's up to the host to decide when
that task gets to schedule, which can be far behind the time that the
non-RT task wakes up. In this case, the test would fail incorrectly.

As we are not testing the scheduler, but instead the wake up tracing,
we can use completions to wait and not depend on scheduler timings
to see if events happen on time.

1d17d17484 time: Fix adjustment cleanup bug in timekeeping_adjust()
Tetsuo Handa reported that sporadically the system clock starts
counting up too quickly which is enough to confuse the hangcheck
timer to print a bogus stall warning.

Commit 2a8c0883 "time: Move xtime_nsec adjustment underflow handling
timekeeping_adjust" overlooked this exit path:

        } else
                return;

which should really be a proper exit sequence, fixing the bug as a
side effect.

Also make the flow more readable by properly balancing curly
braces.

8376fe22c7 workqueue: implement mod_delayed_work[_on]()
Workqueue was lacking a mechanism to modify the timeout of an already
pending delayed_work.  delayed_work users have been working around
this using several methods - using an explicit timer + work item,
messing directly with delayed_work->timer, and canceling before
re-queueing, all of which are error-prone and/or ugly.

This patch implements mod_delayed_work[_on]() which behaves similarly
to mod_timer() - if the delayed_work is idle, it's queued with the
given delay; otherwise, its timeout is modified to the new value.
Zero @delay guarantees immediate execution.

v2: Updated to reflect try_to_grab_pending() changes.  Now safe to be
    called from bh context.

bbb68dfaba workqueue: mark a work item being canceled as such
There can be two reasons try_to_grab_pending() can fail with -EAGAIN.
One is when someone else is queueing or deqeueing the work item.  With
the previous patches, it is guaranteed that PENDING and queued state
will soon agree making it safe to busy-retry in this case.

The other is if multiple __cancel_work_timer() invocations are racing
one another.  __cancel_work_timer() grabs PENDING and then waits for
running instances of the target work item on all CPUs while holding
PENDING and !queued.  try_to_grab_pending() invoked from another task
will keep returning -EAGAIN while the current owner is waiting.

Not distinguishing the two cases is okay because __cancel_work_timer()
is the only user of try_to_grab_pending() and it invokes
wait_on_work() whenever grabbing fails.  For the first case, busy
looping should be fine but wait_on_work() doesn't cause any critical
problem.  For the latter case, the new contender usually waits for the
same condition as the current owner, so no unnecessarily extended
busy-looping happens.  Combined, these make __cancel_work_timer()
technically correct even without irq protection while grabbing PENDING
or distinguishing the two different cases.

While the current code is technically correct, not distinguishing the
two cases makes it difficult to use try_to_grab_pending() for other
purposes than canceling because it's impossible to tell whether it's
safe to busy-retry grabbing.

This patch adds a mechanism to mark a work item being canceled.
try_to_grab_pending() now disables irq on success and returns -EAGAIN
to indicate that grabbing failed but PENDING and queued states are
gonna agree soon and it's safe to busy-loop.  It returns -ENOENT if
the work item is being canceled and it may stay PENDING && !queued for
arbitrary amount of time.

__cancel_work_timer() is modified to mark the work canceling with
WORK_OFFQ_CANCELING after grabbing PENDING, thus making
try_to_grab_pending() fail with -ENOENT instead of -EAGAIN.  Also, it
invokes wait_on_work() iff grabbing failed with -ENOENT.  This isn't
necessary for correctness but makes it consistent with other future
users of try_to_grab_pending().

v2: try_to_grab_pending() was testing preempt_count() to ensure that
    the caller has disabled preemption.  This triggers spuriously if
    !CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT.  Use preemptible() instead.  Reported by
    Fengguang Wu.

v3: Updated so that try_to_grab_pending() disables irq on success
    rather than requiring preemption disabled by the caller.  This
    makes busy-looping easier and will allow try_to_grap_pending() to
    be used from bh/irq contexts.

* Move timer handling from __cancel_work_timer() to

b549007727 workqueue: introduce WORK_OFFQ_FLAG_*
Low WORK_STRUCT_FLAG_BITS bits of work_struct->data contain
WORK_STRUCT_FLAG_* and flush color.  If the work item is queued, the
rest point to the cpu_workqueue with WORK_STRUCT_CWQ set; otherwise,
WORK_STRUCT_CWQ is clear and the bits contain the last CPU number -
either a real CPU number or one of WORK_CPU_*.

Scheduled addition of mod_delayed_work[_on]() requires an additional
flag, which is used only while a work item is off queue.  There are
more than enough bits to represent off-queue CPU number on both 32 and
64bits.  This patch introduces WORK_OFFQ_FLAG_* which occupy the lower
part of the @work->data high bits while off queue.  This patch doesn't
define any actual OFFQ flag yet.

Off-queue CPU number is now shifted by WORK_OFFQ_CPU_SHIFT, which adds
the number of bits used by OFFQ flags to WORK_STRUCT_FLAG_SHIFT, to
make room for OFFQ flags.

To avoid shift width warning with large WORK_OFFQ_FLAG_BITS, ulong
cast is added to WORK_STRUCT_NO_CPU and, just in case, BUILD_BUG_ON()
to check that there are enough bits to accomodate off-queue CPU number
is added.

This patch doesn't make any functional difference.

57469821fd workqueue: unify local CPU queueing handling
Queueing functions have been using different methods to determine the
local CPU.

* queue_work() superflously uses get/put_cpu() to acquire and hold the
  local CPU across queue_work_on().

* delayed_work_timer_fn() uses smp_processor_id().

* queue_delayed_work() calls queue_delayed_work_on() with -1 @cpu
  which is interpreted as the local CPU.

* flush_delayed_work[_sync]() were using raw_smp_processor_id().

* __queue_work() interprets %WORK_CPU_UNBOUND as local CPU if the
  target workqueue is bound one but nobody uses this.

This patch converts all functions to uniformly use %WORK_CPU_UNBOUND
to indicate local CPU and use the local binding feature of
__queue_work().  unlikely() is dropped from %WORK_CPU_UNBOUND handling
in __queue_work().

8930caba3d workqueue: disable irq while manipulating PENDING
Queueing operations use WORK_STRUCT_PENDING_BIT to synchronize access
to the target work item.  They first try to claim the bit and proceed
with queueing only after that succeeds and there's a window between
PENDING being set and the actual queueing where the task can be
interrupted or preempted.

There's also a similar window in process_one_work() when clearing
PENDING.  A work item is dequeued, gcwq->lock is released and then
PENDING is cleared and the worker might get interrupted or preempted
between releasing gcwq->lock and clearing PENDING.

cancel[_delayed]_work_sync() tries to claim or steal PENDING.  The
function assumes that a work item with PENDING is either queued or in
the process of being [de]queued.  In the latter case, it busy-loops
until either the work item loses PENDING or is queued.  If canceling
coincides with the above described interrupts or preemptions, the
canceling task will busy-loop while the queueing or executing task is
preempted.

This patch keeps irq disabled across claiming PENDING and actual
queueing and moves PENDING clearing in process_one_work() inside
gcwq->lock so that busy looping from PENDING && !queued doesn't wait
for interrupted/preempted tasks.  Note that, in process_one_work(),
setting last CPU and clearing PENDING got merged into single
operation.

This removes possible long busy-loops and will allow using
try_to_grab_pending() from bh and irq contexts.

v2: __queue_work() was testing preempt_count() to ensure that the
    caller has disabled preemption.  This triggers spuriously if
    !CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT.  Use preemptible() instead.  Reported by
    Fengguang Wu.

v3: Disable irq instead of preemption.  IRQ will be disabled while
    grabbing gcwq->lock later anyway and this allows using
    try_to_grab_pending() from bh and irq contexts.

959d1af8cf workqueue: add missing smp_wmb() in process_one_work()
WORK_STRUCT_PENDING is used to claim ownership of a work item and
process_one_work() releases it before starting execution.  When
someone else grabs PENDING, all pre-release updates to the work item
should be visible and all updates made by the new owner should happen
afterwards.

Grabbing PENDING uses test_and_set_bit() and thus has a full barrier;
however, clearing doesn't have a matching wmb.  Given the preceding
spin_unlock and use of clear_bit, I don't believe this can be a
problem on an actual machine and there hasn't been any related report
but it still is theretically possible for clear_pending to permeate
upwards and happen before work->entry update.

Add an explicit smp_wmb() before work_clear_pending().

2d53492620 irqdomain changes for Linux v3.6
Round of refactoring and enhancements to irq_domain infrastructure. This
 series starts the process of simplifying irqdomain. The ultimate goal is
 to merge LEGACY, LINEAR and TREE mappings into a single system, but had
 to back off from that after some last minute bugs. Instead it mainly
 reorganizes the code and ensures that the reverse map gets populated
 when the irq is mapped instead of the first time it is looked up.
 
 Merging of the irq_domain types is deferred to v3.7
 
 In other news, this series adds helpers for creating static mappings on
 a linear or tree mapping.

Merge tag 'irqdomain-for-linus' of git://git.secretlab.ca/git/linux-2.6

Pull irqdomain changes from Grant Likely:
 "Round of refactoring and enhancements to irq_domain infrastructure.
  This series starts the process of simplifying irqdomain.  The ultimate
  goal is to merge LEGACY, LINEAR and TREE mappings into a single
  system, but had to back off from that after some last minute bugs.
  Instead it mainly reorganizes the code and ensures that the reverse
  map gets populated when the irq is mapped instead of the first time it
  is looked up.

  Merging of the irq_domain types is deferred to v3.7

  In other news, this series adds helpers for creating static mappings
  on a linear or tree mapping."

907aed48f6 mm: allow PF_MEMALLOC from softirq context
This is needed to allow network softirq packet processing to make use of
PF_MEMALLOC.

Currently softirq context cannot use PF_MEMALLOC due to it not being
associated with a task, and therefore not having task flags to fiddle with
- thus the gfp to alloc flag mapping ignores the task flags when in
interrupts (hard or soft) context.

Allowing softirqs to make use of PF_MEMALLOC therefore requires some
trickery.  This patch borrows the task flags from whatever process happens
to be preempted by the softirq.  It then modifies the gfp to alloc flags
mapping to not exclude task flags in softirq context, and modify the
softirq code to save, clear and restore the PF_MEMALLOC flag.

The save and clear, ensures the preempted task's PF_MEMALLOC flag doesn't
leak into the softirq.  The restore ensures a softirq's PF_MEMALLOC flag
cannot leak back into the preempted process.  This should be safe due to
the following reasons

Softirqs can run on multiple CPUs sure but the same task should not be
	executing the same softirq code. Neither should the softirq
	handler be preempted by any other softirq handler so the flags
	should not leak to an unrelated softirq.

Softirqs re-enable hardware interrupts in __do_softirq() so can be
	preempted by hardware interrupts so PF_MEMALLOC is inherited
	by the hard IRQ. However, this is similar to a process in
	reclaim being preempted by a hardirq. While PF_MEMALLOC is
	set, gfp_to_alloc_flags() distinguishes between hard and
	soft irqs and avoids giving a hardirq the ALLOC_NO_WATERMARKS
	flag.

If the softirq is deferred to ksoftirq then its flags may be used
        instead of a normal tasks but as the softirq cannot be preempted,
        the PF_MEMALLOC flag does not leak to other code by accident.

9adb62a5df mm/hotplug: correctly setup fallback zonelists when creating new pgdat
When hotadd_new_pgdat() is called to create new pgdat for a new node, a
fallback zonelist should be created for the new node.  There's code to try
to achieve that in hotadd_new_pgdat() as below:

	/*
	 * The node we allocated has no zone fallback lists. For avoiding
	 * to access not-initialized zonelist, build here.
	 */
	mutex_lock(&zonelists_mutex);
	build_all_zonelists(pgdat, NULL);
	mutex_unlock(&zonelists_mutex);

But it doesn't work as expected.  When hotadd_new_pgdat() is called, the
new node is still in offline state because node_set_online(nid) hasn't
been called yet.  And build_all_zonelists() only builds zonelists for
online nodes as:

        for_each_online_node(nid) {
                pg_data_t *pgdat = NODE_DATA(nid);

                build_zonelists(pgdat);
                build_zonelist_cache(pgdat);
        }

Though we hope to create zonelist for the new pgdat, but it doesn't.  So
add a new parameter "pgdat" the build_all_zonelists() to build pgdat for
the new pgdat too.

6d0ef903e2 time: Clean up offs_real/wall_to_mono and offs_boot/total_sleep_time updates
For performance reasons, we maintain ktime_t based duplicates of

Since large problems could occur (such as the resume regression
on 3.5-rc7, or the leapsecond hrtimer issue) if these value
pairs were to be inconsistently updated, this patch this cleans
up how we modify these value pairs to ensure we are always
consistent.

As a side-effect this is also more efficient as we only
caulculate the duplicate values when they are changed,
rather then every update_wall_time call.

This also provides WARN_ONs to detect if future changes break
the invariants.

e6dab5ffab perf/trace: Add ability to set a target task for events
A few events are interesting not only for a current task.
For example, sched_stat_* events are interesting for a task
which wakes up. For this reason, it will be good if such
events will be delivered to a target task too.

Now a target task can be set by using __perf_task().

The original idea and a draft patch belongs to Peter Zijlstra.

I need these events for profiling sleep times. sched_switch is used for
getting callchains and sched_stat_* is used for getting time periods.
These events are combined in user space, then it can be analyzed by
perf tools.

ae6aa16fdc kprobes: introduce ftrace based optimization
Introduce function trace based kprobes optimization.

With using ftrace optimization, kprobes on the mcount calling
address, use ftrace's mcount call instead of breakpoint.
Furthermore, this optimization works with preemptive kernel
not like as current jump-based optimization. Of cource,
this feature works only if the probe is on mcount call.

Only if kprobe.break_handler is set, that probe is not
optimized with ftrace (nor put on ftrace). The reason why this
limitation comes is that this break_handler may be used only
from jprobes which changes ip address (for fetching the function
arguments), but function tracer ignores modified ip address.

Changes in v2:
 - Fix ftrace_ops registering right after setting its filter.
 - Unregister ftrace_ops if there is no kprobe using.
 - Remove notrace dependency from __kprobes macro.

72ef3794c5 kprobes: Inverse taking of module_mutex with kprobe_mutex
Currently module_mutex is taken before kprobe_mutex, but this
can cause issues when we have kprobes register ftrace, as the ftrace
mutex is taken before enabling a tracepoint, which currently takes
the module mutex.

If module_mutex is taken before kprobe_mutex, then we can not
have kprobes use the ftrace infrastructure.

There seems to be no reason that the kprobe_mutex can't be taken
before the module_mutex. Running lockdep shows that it is safe
among the kernels I've run.

Add selftests to test the save-regs functionality of ftrace.

If the arch supports saving regs, then it will make sure that regs is
at least not NULL in the callback.

If the arch does not support saving regs, it makes sure that the
registering of the ftrace_ops that requests saving regs fails.
It then tests the registering of the ftrace_ops succeeds if the
'IF_SUPPORTED' flag is set. Then it makes sure that the regs passed to
the function is NULL.

4740974a68 ftrace: Add default recursion protection for function tracing
As more users of the function tracer utility are being added, they do
not always add the necessary recursion protection. To protect from
function recursion due to tracing, if the callback ftrace_ops does not
specifically specify that it protects against recursion (by setting
the FTRACE_OPS_FL_RECURSION_SAFE flag), the list operation will be
called by the mcount trampoline which adds recursion protection.

If the flag is set, then the function will be called directly with no
extra protection.

Note, the list operation is called if more than one function callback
is registered, or if the arch does not support all of the function
tracer features.

65fed8f6f2 resource: make sure requested range is included in the root range
When the requested range is outside of the root range the logic in
__reserve_region_with_split will cause an infinite recursion which will
overflow the stack as seen in the warning bellow.

This particular stack overflow was caused by requesting the
(100000000-107ffffff) range while the root range was (0-ffffffff).  In
this case __request_resource would return the whole root range as
conflict range (i.e.  0-ffffffff).  Then, the logic in
__reserve_region_with_split would continue the recursion requesting the
new range as (conflict->end+1, end) which incidentally in this case
equals the originally requested range.

This patch aborts looking for an usable range when the request does not
intersect with the root range.  When the request partially overlaps with
the root range, it ajust the request to fall in the root range and then
continues with the new request.

When the request is modified or aborted errors and a stack trace are
logged to allow catching the errors in the upper layers.

fd4b616b0f sysctl: suppress kmemleak messages
register_sysctl_table() is a strange function, as it makes internal
allocations (a header) to register a sysctl_table.  This header is a
handle to the table that is created, and can be used to unregister the
table.  But if the table is permanent and never unregistered, the header
acts the same as a static variable.

Unfortunately, this allocation of memory that is never expected to be
freed fools kmemleak in thinking that we have leaked memory.  For those
sysctl tables that are never unregistered, and have no pointer referencing
them, kmemleak will think that these are memory leaks:

unreferenced object 0xffff880079fb9d40 (size 192):
  comm "swapper/0", pid 0, jiffies 4294667316 (age 12614.152s)

The sysctl_base_table used by sysctl itself is one such instance that
registers the table to never be unregistered.

Use kmemleak_not_leak() to suppress the kmemleak false positive.

The last line of vmcoreinfo note does not end with \n.  Parsing all the

f19b9f74b7 fork: fix error handling in dup_task()
The function dup_task() may fail at the following function calls in the
following order.

0) alloc_task_struct_node()
1) alloc_thread_info_node()
2) arch_dup_task_struct()

Error by 0) is not a matter, it can just return.  But error by 1) requires
releasing task_struct allocated by 0) before it returns.  Likewise, error
by 2) requires releasing task_struct and thread_info allocated by 0) and
1).

The existing error handling calls free_task_struct() and
free_thread_info() which do not only release task_struct and thread_info,
but also call architecture specific arch_release_task_struct() and
arch_release_thread_info().

The problem is that task_struct and thread_info are not fully initialized
yet at this point, but arch_release_task_struct() and
arch_release_thread_info() are called with them.

For example, x86 defines its own arch_release_task_struct() that releases
a task_xstate.  If alloc_thread_info_node() fails in dup_task(),
arch_release_task_struct() is called with task_struct which is just
allocated and filled with garbage in this error handling.

This actually happened with tools/testing/fault-injection/failcmd.sh

	# env FAILCMD_TYPE=fail_page_alloc \
		./tools/testing/fault-injection/failcmd.sh --times=100 \
		--min-order=0 --ignore-gfp-wait=0 \
		-- make -C tools/testing/selftests/ run_tests

In order to fix this issue, make free_{task_struct,thread_info}() not to
call arch_release_{task_struct,thread_info}() and call
arch_release_{task_struct,thread_info}() implicitly where needed.

Default arch_release_task_struct() and arch_release_thread_info() are
defined as empty by default.  So this change only affects the
architectures which implement their own arch_release_task_struct() or
arch_release_thread_info() as listed below.

arch_release_task_struct(): x86, sh
arch_release_thread_info(): mn10300, tile

0f20784d4b kmod: avoid deadlock from recursive kmod call
The system deadlocks (at least since 2.6.10) when
call_usermodehelper(UMH_WAIT_EXEC) request triggers
call_usermodehelper(UMH_WAIT_PROC) request.

This is because "khelper thread is waiting for the worker thread at
wait_for_completion() in do_fork() since the worker thread was created
with CLONE_VFORK flag" and "the worker thread cannot call complete()
because do_execve() is blocked at UMH_WAIT_PROC request" and "the khelper
thread cannot start processing UMH_WAIT_PROC request because the khelper
thread is waiting for the worker thread at wait_for_completion() in
do_fork()".

The easiest example to observe this deadlock is to use a corrupted
/sbin/hotplug binary (like shown below).

  # : > /tmp/dummy
  # chmod 755 /tmp/dummy
  # echo /tmp/dummy > /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug
  # modprobe whatever

call_usermodehelper("/tmp/dummy", UMH_WAIT_EXEC) is called from
kobject_uevent_env() in lib/kobject_uevent.c upon loading/unloading a
module.  do_execve("/tmp/dummy") triggers a call to
request_module("binfmt-0000") from search_binary_handler() which in turn
calls call_usermodehelper(UMH_WAIT_PROC).

In order to avoid deadlock, as a for-now and easy-to-backport solution, do
not try to call wait_for_completion() in call_usermodehelper_exec() if the
worker thread was created by khelper thread with CLONE_VFORK flag.  Future
and fundamental solution might be replacing singleton khelper thread with
some workqueue so that recursive calls up to max_active dependency loop
can be handled without deadlock.

45226e944c NMI watchdog: fix for lockup detector breakage on resume
On the suspend/resume path the boot CPU does not go though an
offline->online transition.  This breaks the NMI detector post-resume
since it depends on PMU state that is lost when the system gets
suspended.

Fix this by forcing a CPU offline->online transition for the lockup
detector on the boot CPU during resume.

To provide more context, we enable NMI watchdog on Chrome OS.  We have
seen several reports of systems freezing up completely which indicated
that the NMI watchdog was not firing for some reason.

Debugging further, we found a simple way of repro'ing system freezes --
issuing the command 'tasket 1 sh -c "echo nmilockup > /proc/breakme"'
after the system has been suspended/resumed one or more times.

With this patch in place, the system freeze result in panics, as
expected.

These panics provide a nice stack trace for us to debug the actual issue
causing the freeze.

190320c3b6 panic: fix a possible deadlock in panic()
panic_lock is meant to ensure that panic processing takes place only on
one cpu; if any of the other cpus encounter a panic, they will spin
waiting to be shut down.

However, this causes a regression in this scenario:

1. Cpu 0 encounters a panic and acquires the panic_lock
   and proceeds with the panic processing.
2. There is an interrupt on cpu 0 that also encounters
   an error condition and invokes panic.
3. This second invocation fails to acquire the panic_lock
   and enters the infinite while loop in panic_smp_self_stop.

Thus all panic processing is stopped, and the cpu is stuck for eternity
in the while(1) inside panic_smp_self_stop.

To address this, disable local interrupts with local_irq_disable before
acquiring the panic_lock.  This will prevent interrupt handlers from
executing during the panic processing, thus avoiding this particular
problem.

Like do_wp_page(), __replace_page() should do munlock_vma_page()

Also, move put_page() outside of ptl lock. This doesn't really

f4d6dfe551 uprobes: Fix register_for_each_vma()->vma_address() check
1. register_for_each_vma() checks that vma_address() == vaddr,
   but this is not enough. We should also ensure that
   vaddr >= vm_start, find_vma() guarantees "vaddr < vm_end" only.

2. After the prevous changes, register_for_each_vma() is the
   only reason why vma_address() has to return loff_t, all other
   users know that we have the valid mapping at this offset and
   thus the overflow is not possible.

   Change the code to use vaddr_to_offset() instead, imho this looks
   more clean/understandable and now we can change vma_address().

3. While at it, remove the unnecessary type-cast.

891c397081 uprobes: Teach build_probe_list() to consider the range
Currently build_probe_list() builds the list of all uprobes
attached to the given inode, and the caller should filter out
those who don't fall into the [start,end) range, this is
sub-optimal.

This patch turns find_least_offset_node() into
find_node_in_range() which returns the first node inside the
[min,max] range, and changes build_probe_list() to use this node
as a starting point for rb_prev() and rb_next() to find all
other nodes the caller needs. The resulting list is no longer
sorted but we do not care.

This can speed up both build_probe_list() and the callers, but
there is another reason to introduce find_node_in_range(). It
can be used to figure out whether the given vma has uprobes or
not, this will be needed soon.

While at it, shift INIT_LIST_HEAD(tmp_list) into
build_probe_list().

9f92448cee uprobes: Clean up and document write_opcode()->lock_page(old_page)
The comment above write_opcode()->lock_page(old_page) tells
about the race with do_wp_page(). I don't really understand
which exactly race it means, but afaics this lock_page() was not
enough to close all races with do_wp_page().

Anyway, since:

   77fc4af1b5 uprobes: Change register_for_each_vma() to take mm->mmap_sem for writing

this code is always called with ->mmap_sem held for writing,
so we can forget about do_wp_page().

However, we can't simply remove this lock_page(), and the only
(afaics) reason is __replace_page()->try_to_free_swap().

Nothing in write_opcode() needs it, move it into
__replace_page() and fix the comment.

c517ee744b uprobes: __replace_page() should not use page_address_in_vma()
page_address_in_vma(old_page) in __replace_page() is ugly and
wrong. The caller already knows the correct virtual address,
this page was found by get_user_pages(vaddr).

However, page_address_in_vma() can actually fail if
page->mapping was cleared by __delete_from_page_cache() after
get_user_pages() returns. But this means the race with page
reclaim, write_opcode() should not fail, it should retry and
read this page again. Probably the race with remove_mapping() is
not possible due to page_freeze_refs() logic, but afaics at
least shmem_writepage()->shmem_delete_from_page_cache() can
clear ->mapping.

We could change __replace_page() to return -EAGAIN in this case,
but it would be better to simply use the caller's vaddr and rely
on page_check_address().

800179c9b8 fs: add link restrictions
This adds symlink and hardlink restrictions to the Linux VFS.

Symlinks:

A long-standing class of security issues is the symlink-based
time-of-check-time-of-use race, most commonly seen in world-writable
directories like /tmp. The common method of exploitation of this flaw
is to cross privilege boundaries when following a given symlink (i.e. a
root process follows a symlink belonging to another user). For a likely
incomplete list of hundreds of examples across the years, please see:
http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvekey.cgi?keyword=/tmp

The solution is to permit symlinks to only be followed when outside
a sticky world-writable directory, or when the uid of the symlink and
follower match, or when the directory owner matches the symlink's owner.

Some pointers to the history of earlier discussion that I could find:

  https://lkml.org/lkml/2010/5/30/144

Past objections and rebuttals could be summarized as:

 - Violates POSIX.
   - POSIX didn't consider this situation and it's not useful to follow
     a broken specification at the cost of security.
 - Might break unknown applications that use this feature.
   - Applications that break because of the change are easy to spot and
     fix. Applications that are vulnerable to symlink ToCToU by not having
     the change aren't. Additionally, no applications have yet been found
     that rely on this behavior.
 - Applications should just use mkstemp() or O_CREATE|O_EXCL.
   - True, but applications are not perfect, and new software is written
     all the time that makes these mistakes; blocking this flaw at the
     kernel is a single solution to the entire class of vulnerability.
 - This should live in the core VFS.
   - This should live in an LSM. (https://lkml.org/lkml/2010/5/31/135)
 - This should live in an LSM.
   - This should live in the core VFS. (https://lkml.org/lkml/2010/8/2/188)

Hardlinks:

On systems that have user-writable directories on the same partition
as system files, a long-standing class of security issues is the
hardlink-based time-of-check-time-of-use race, most commonly seen in
world-writable directories like /tmp. The common method of exploitation
of this flaw is to cross privilege boundaries when following a given
hardlink (i.e. a root process follows a hardlink created by another
user). Additionally, an issue exists where users can "pin" a potentially
vulnerable setuid/setgid file so that an administrator will not actually
upgrade a system fully.

The solution is to permit hardlinks to only be created when the user is
already the existing file's owner, or if they already have read/write
access to the existing file.

Many Linux users are surprised when they learn they can link to files
they have no access to, so this change appears to follow the doctrine
of "least surprise". Additionally, this change does not violate POSIX,
which states "the implementation may require that the calling process
has permission to access the existing file"[1].

This change is known to break some implementations of the "at" daemon,
though the version used by Fedora and Ubuntu has been fixed[2] for
a while. Otherwise, the change has been undisruptive while in use in
Ubuntu for the last 1.5 years.

This patch is based on the patches in Openwall and grsecurity, along with
suggestions from Al Viro. I have added a sysctl to enable the protected
behavior, and documentation.

8ded2bbc18 posix_types.h: Cleanup stale __NFDBITS and related definitions
Recently, glibc made a change to suppress sign-conversion warnings in
FD_SET (glibc commit ceb9e56b3d1).  This uncovered an issue with the
kernel's definition of __NFDBITS if applications #include
<linux/types.h> after including <sys/select.h>.  A build failure would
be seen when passing the -Werror=sign-compare and -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2
flags to gcc.

It was suggested that the kernel should either match the glibc
definition of __NFDBITS or remove that entirely.  The current in-kernel
uses of __NFDBITS can be replaced with BITS_PER_LONG, and there are no
uses of the related __FDELT and __FDMASK defines.  Given that, we'll
continue the cleanup that was started with commit 8b3d1cda4f
("posix_types: Remove fd_set macros") and drop the remaining unused
macros.

Additionally, linux/time.h has similar macros defined that expand to
nothing so we'll remove those at the same time.

Here's the big driver core pull request for 3.6-rc1.
 
 Unlike 3.5, this kernel should be a lot tamer, with the printk changes now
 settled down.  All we have here is some extcon driver updates, w1 driver
 updates, a few printk cleanups that weren't needed for 3.5, but are good to
 have now, and some other minor fixes/changes in the driver core.
 
 All of these have been in the linux-next releases for a while now.

b13bc8dda8 Staging tree patches for 3.6-rc1
Here's the big staging tree merge for the 3.6-rc1 merge window.
 
 There are some patches in here outside of drivers/staging/, notibly the iio
 code (which is still stradeling the staging / not staging boundry), the pstore
 code, and the tracing code.  All of these have gotten ackes from the various
 subsystem maintainers to be included in this tree.  The pstore and tracing
 patches are related, and are coming here as they replace one of the android
 staging drivers.
 
 Otherwise, the normal staging mess.  Lots of cleanups and a few new drivers
 (some iio drivers, and the large csr wireless driver abomination.)
 
 Note, you will get a merge issue with the following files:
 	drivers/staging/comedi/drivers/s626.h
 	drivers/staging/gdm72xx/netlink_k.c
 both of which should be trivial for you to handle.

895dd92c03 sched: Deliver sched_switch events to the current task
Otherwise they can't be filtered for a defined task:

  perf record -e sched:sched_switch ./foo

This command doesn't report any events without this patch.

I think it isn't a security concern if someone knows who will
be executed next - this can already be observed by polling /proc
state. By default perf is disabled for non-root users in any case.

I need these events for profiling sleep times.  sched_switch is used for
getting callchains and sched_stat_* is used for getting time periods.
These events are combined in user space, then it can be analyzed by
perf tools.

4c0946c474 irqdomain: eliminate slow-path revmap lookups
With the current state of irq_domain, the reverse map is always updated
when new IRQs get mapped.  This means that the irq_find_mapping() function
can be simplified to execute the revmap lookup functions unconditionally

This patch adds lookup functions for the revmaps that don't yet have one
and removes the slow path lookup code path.

v8: Broke out unrelated changes into separate patches.  Rebased on Paul's irq
    association patches.
v7: Rebased to irqdomain/next for v3.4 and applied before the removal of 'hint'
v6: Remove the slow path entirely.  The only place where the slow path
    could get called is for a linear mapping if the hwirq number is larger
    than the linear revmap size.  There shouldn't be any interrupt
    controllers that do that.
v5: rewrite to not use a ->revmap() callback.  It is simpler, smaller,
    safer and faster to open code each of the revmap lookups directly into
    irq_find_mapping() via a switch statement.
v4: Fix build failure on incorrect variable reference.

The most important feature of this patch set is the new async infrastructure
 that makes sure async_synchronize_full() synchronizes all domains and allows
 us to remove all the hacks (like having scsi_complete_async_scans() in the
 device base code) and means that the async infrastructure will "just work" in
 future. The rest is assorted driver updates (aacraid, bnx2fc, virto-scsi,
 megaraid, bfa, lpfc, qla2xxx, qla4xxx) plus a lot of infrastructure work in
 sas and FC.

3c4cfadef6 Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next
Pull networking changes from David S Miller:

 1) Remove the ipv4 routing cache.  Now lookups go directly into the FIB
    trie and use prebuilt routes cached there.

    No more garbage collection, no more rDOS attacks on the routing
    cache.  Instead we now get predictable and consistent performance,
    no matter what the pattern of traffic we service.

    This has been almost 2 years in the making.  Special thanks to
    Julian Anastasov, Eric Dumazet, Steffen Klassert, and others who
    have helped along the way.

    I'm sure that with a change of this magnitude there will be some
    kind of fallout, but such things ought the be simple to fix at this
    point.  Luckily I'm not European so I'll be around all of August to
    fix things :-)

    The major stages of this work here are each fronted by a forced
    merge commit whose commit message contains a top-level description
    of the motivations and implementation issues.

 2) Pre-demux of established ipv4 TCP sockets, saves a route demux on
    input.

 3) TCP SYN/ACK performance tweaks from Eric Dumazet.

 4) Add namespace support for netfilter L4 conntrack helpers, from Gao
    Feng.

 5) Add config mechanism for Energy Efficient Ethernet to ethtool, from
    Yuval Mintz.

 6) Remove quadratic behavior from /proc/net/unix, from Eric Dumazet.

 7) Support for connection tracker helpers in userspace, from Pablo
    Neira Ayuso.

 8) Allow userspace driven TX load balancing functions in TEAM driver,
    from Jiri Pirko.

 9) Kill off NLMSG_PUT and RTA_PUT macros, more gross stuff with
    embedded gotos.

10) TCP Small Queues, essentially minimize the amount of TCP data queued
    up in the packet scheduler layer.  Whereas the existing BQL (Byte
    Queue Limits) limits the pkt_sched --> netdevice queuing levels,
    this controls the TCP --> pkt_sched queueing levels.

    From Eric Dumazet.

11) Reduce the number of get_page/put_page ops done on SKB fragments,
    from Alexander Duyck.

12) Implement protection against blind resets in TCP (RFC 5961), from
    Eric Dumazet.

13) Support the client side of TCP Fast Open, basically the ability to
    send data in the SYN exchange, from Yuchung Cheng.

    Basically, the sender queues up data with a sendmsg() call using
    MSG_FASTOPEN, then they do the connect() which emits the queued up
    fastopen data.

14) Avoid all the problems we get into in TCP when timers or PMTU events
    hit a locked socket.  The TCP Small Queues changes added a
    tcp_release_cb() that allows us to queue work up to the
    release_sock() caller, and that's what we use here too.  From Eric
    Dumazet.

15) Zero copy on TX support for TUN driver, from Michael S. Tsirkin.

b44d50dcac time: Fix casting issue in tk_set_xtime and tk_xtime_add
commit 1e75fa8b (time: Condense timekeeper.xtime into xtime_sec)
introduced helper functions which apply a timespec to the core
internal timekeeper data. The internal storage type is u64. The
timespec tv_nsec value must be shifted before set or added to the
internal value. tv_nsec is a long, which is 32bit on a 32bit system,
so without casting tv_nsec to u64 we lose the bits which are shifted
over the 32bit boundary.

Add the proper typecasts.

6f7b0a2a5c futex: Forbid uaddr == uaddr2 in futex_wait_requeue_pi()
If uaddr == uaddr2, then we have broken the rule of only requeueing
from a non-pi futex to a pi futex with this call. If we attempt this,
as the trinity test suite manages to do, we miss early wakeups as
q.key is equal to key2 (because they are the same uaddr). We will then
attempt to dereference the pi_mutex (which would exist had the futex_q
been properly requeued to a pi futex) and trigger a NULL pointer
dereference.

8323f26ce3 sched: Fix race in task_group()
Stefan reported a crash on a kernel before a3e5d1091c ("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.

88b8dac0a1 sched: Improve balance_cpu() to consider other cpus in its group as target of (pinned) task
Current load balance scheme requires only one cpu in a
sched_group (balance_cpu) to look at other peer sched_groups for
imbalance and pull tasks towards itself from a busy cpu. Tasks
thus pulled by balance_cpu could later get picked up by cpus
that are in the same sched_group as that of balance_cpu.

This scheme however fails to pull tasks that are not allowed to
run on balance_cpu (but are allowed to run on other cpus in its
sched_group). That can affect fairness and in some worst case
scenarios cause starvation.

Consider a two core (2 threads/core) system running tasks as
below:

          Core0            Core1
         /     \          /     \
	C0     C1	 C2     C3
        |      |         |      |
        v      v         v      v
	F0     T1        F1     [idle]
			 T2

 F0 = SCHED_FIFO task (pinned to C0)
 F1 = SCHED_FIFO task (pinned to C2)
 T1 = SCHED_OTHER task (pinned to C1)
 T2 = SCHED_OTHER task (pinned to C1 and C2)

F1 could become a cpu hog, which will starve T2 unless C1 pulls
it. Between C0 and C1 however, C0 is required to look for
imbalance between cores, which will fail to pull T2 towards
Core0. T2 will starve eternally in this case. The same scenario
can arise in presence of non-rt tasks as well (say we replace F1
with high irq load).

We tackle this problem by having balance_cpu move pinned tasks
to one of its sibling cpus (where they can run). We first check
if load balance goal can be met by ignoring pinned tasks,
failing which we retry move_tasks() with a new env->dst_cpu.

This patch modifies load balance semantics on who can move load
towards a given cpu in a given sched_domain.

Before this patch, a given_cpu or a ilb_cpu acting on behalf of
an idle given_cpu is responsible for moving load to given_cpu.

With this patch applied, balance_cpu can in addition decide on
moving some load to a given_cpu.

There is a remote possibility that excess load could get moved
as a result of this (balance_cpu and given_cpu/ilb_cpu deciding
*independently* and at *same* time to move some load to a
given_cpu). However we should see less of such conflicting
decisions in practice and moreover subsequent load balance
cycles should correct the excess load moved to given_cpu.

While load balancing, if all tasks on the source runqueue are pinned,
we retry after excluding the corresponding source cpu. However, loop counters
env.loop and env.loop_break are not reset before retrying, which can lead
to failure in moving the tasks. In this patch we reset env.loop and
env.loop_break to their inital values before we retry.

970e178985 sched: Improve scalability via 'CPU buddies', which withstand random perturbations
Traversing an entire package is not only expensive, it also leads to tasks
bouncing all over a partially idle and possible quite large package.  Fix
that up by assigning a 'buddy' CPU to try to motivate.  Each buddy may try
to motivate that one other CPU, if it's busy, tough, it may then try its
SMT sibling, but that's all this optimization is allowed to cost.

Sibling cache buddies are cross-wired to prevent bouncing.

4 socket 40 core + SMT Westmere box, single 30 sec tbench runs, higher is better:

7ddf96b02f cpusets, hotplug: Restructure functions that are invoked during hotplug
Separate out the cpuset related handling for CPU/Memory online/offline.
This also helps us exploit the most obvious and basic level of optimization
that any notification mechanism (CPU/Mem online/offline) has to offer us:
"We *know* why we have been invoked. So stop pretending that we are lost,
and do only the necessary amount of processing!".

And while at it, rename scan_for_empty_cpusets() to
scan_cpusets_upon_hotplug(), which is more appropriate considering how
it is restructured.

80d1fa6463 cpusets, hotplug: Implement cpuset tree traversal in a helper function
At present, the functions that deal with cpusets during CPU/Mem hotplug
are quite messy, since a lot of the functionality is mixed up without clear
separation. And this takes a toll on optimization as well. For example,
the function cpuset_update_active_cpus() is called on both CPU offline and CPU
online events; and it invokes scan_for_empty_cpusets(), which makes sense
only for CPU offline events. And hence, the current code ends up unnecessarily
traversing the cpuset tree during CPU online also.

As a first step towards cleaning up those functions, encapsulate the cpuset
tree traversal in a helper function, so as to facilitate upcoming changes.

d35be8bab9 CPU hotplug, cpusets, suspend: Don't modify cpusets during suspend/resume
In the event of CPU hotplug, the kernel modifies the cpusets' cpus_allowed
masks as and when necessary to ensure that the tasks belonging to the cpusets
have some place (online CPUs) to run on. And regular CPU hotplug is
destructive in the sense that the kernel doesn't remember the original cpuset
configurations set by the user, across hotplug operations.

However, suspend/resume (which uses CPU hotplug) is a special case in which
the kernel has the responsibility to restore the system (during resume), to
exactly the same state it was in before suspend.

In order to achieve that, do the following:

1. Don't modify cpusets during suspend/resume. At all.
   In particular, don't move the tasks from one cpuset to another, and
   don't modify any cpuset's cpus_allowed mask. So, simply ignore cpusets
   during the CPU hotplug operations that are carried out in the
   suspend/resume path.

2. However, cpusets and sched domains are related. We just want to avoid
   altering cpusets alone. So, to keep the sched domains updated, build
   a single sched domain (containing all active cpus) during each of the
   CPU hotplug operations carried out in s/r path, effectively ignoring
   the cpusets' cpus_allowed masks.

   (Since userspace is frozen while doing all this, it will go unnoticed.)

3. During the last CPU online operation during resume, build the sched
   domains by looking up the (unaltered) cpusets' cpus_allowed masks.
   That will bring back the system to the same original state as it was in
   before suspend.

Ultimately, this will not only solve the cpuset problem related to suspend
resume (ie., restores the cpusets to exactly what it was before suspend, by
not touching it at all) but also speeds up suspend/resume because we avoid
running cpuset update code for every CPU being offlined/onlined.

a66d2c8f7e Merge branch 'for-linus-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs
Pull the big VFS changes from Al Viro:
 "This one is *big* and changes quite a few things around VFS.  What's in there:

   - the first of two really major architecture changes - death to open
     intents.

     The former is finally there; it was very long in making, but with
     Miklos getting through really hard and messy final push in
     fs/namei.c, we finally have it.  Unlike his variant, this one
     doesn't introduce struct opendata; what we have instead is
     ->atomic_open() taking preallocated struct file * and passing
     everything via its fields.

     Instead of returning struct file *, it returns -E...  on error, 0
     on success and 1 in "deal with it yourself" case (e.g.  symlink
     found on server, etc.).

     See comments before fs/namei.c:atomic_open().  That made a lot of
     goodies finally possible and quite a few are in that pile:
     ->lookup(), ->d_revalidate() and ->create() do not get struct
     nameidata * anymore; ->lookup() and ->d_revalidate() get lookup
     flags instead, ->create() gets "do we want it exclusive" flag.

     With the introduction of new helper (kern_path_locked()) we are rid
     of all struct nameidata instances outside of fs/namei.c; it's still
     visible in namei.h, but not for long.  Come the next cycle,
     declaration will move either to fs/internal.h or to fs/namei.c
     itself.  [me, miklos, hch]

   - The second major change: behaviour of final fput().  Now we have
     __fput() done without any locks held by caller *and* not from deep
     in call stack.

     That obviously lifts a lot of constraints on the locking in there.
     Moreover, it's legal now to call fput() from atomic contexts (which
     has immediately simplified life for aio.c).  We also don't need
     anti-recursion logics in __scm_destroy() anymore.

     There is a price, though - the damn thing has become partially
     asynchronous.  For fput() from normal process we are guaranteed
     that pending __fput() will be done before the caller returns to
     userland, exits or gets stopped for ptrace.

     For kernel threads and atomic contexts it's done via
     schedule_work(), so theoretically we might need a way to make sure
     it's finished; so far only one such place had been found, but there
     might be more.

     There's flush_delayed_fput() (do all pending __fput()) and there's
     __fput_sync() (fput() analog doing __fput() immediately).  I hope
     we won't need them often; see warnings in fs/file_table.c for
     details.  [me, based on task_work series from Oleg merged last
     cycle]

   - sync series from Jan

   - large part of "death to sync_supers()" work from Artem; the only
     bits missing here are exofs and ext4 ones.  As far as I understand,
     those are going via the exofs and ext4 trees resp.; once they are
     in, we can put ->write_super() to the rest, along with the thread
     calling it.

   - preparatory bits from unionmount series (from dhowells).

   - assorted cleanups and fixes all over the place, as usual.

  This is not the last pile for this cycle; there's at least jlayton's
  ESTALE work and fsfreeze series (the latter - in dire need of fixes,
  so I'm not sure it'll make the cut this cycle).  I'll probably throw
  symlink/hardlink restrictions stuff from Kees into the next pile, too.
  Plus there's a lot of misc patches I hadn't thrown into that one -
  it's large enough as it is..."

 "Quoting from Paul, the major features of this series are:

  1. Preventing latency spikes of more than 200 microseconds for
     kernels built with NR_CPUS=4096, which is reportedly becoming the
     default for some distros.  This is a first step, as it does not
     help with systems that actually -have- 4096 CPUs (work on this case
     is in progress, but is not yet ready for mainline).

     This category also includes improving concurrency of rcu_barrier(),
     placed here due to conflicts.  Posted to LKML at:

     Note that patches 18-22 of that series have been defered to 3.7, as
     they have not yet proven themselves to be mainline-ready (and yes,
     these are the ones intended to get rid of RCU's latency spikes for
     systems that actually have 4096 CPUs).

6fec10a1a5 workqueue: fix spurious CPU locality WARN from process_one_work()
25511a4776 "workqueue: reimplement CPU online rebinding to handle idle
workers" added CPU locality sanity check in process_one_work().  It
triggers if a worker is executing on a different CPU without UNBOUND
or REBIND set.

This works for all normal workers but rescuers can trigger this
spuriously when they're serving the unbound or a disassociated
global_cwq - rescuers don't have either flag set and thus its
gcwq->cpu can be a different value including %WORK_CPU_UNBOUND.

Fix it by additionally testing %GCWQ_DISASSOCIATED.

46f3d97621 kthread_worker: reimplement flush_kthread_work() to allow freeing the work item being executed
kthread_worker provides minimalistic workqueue-like interface for
users which need a dedicated worker thread (e.g. for realtime
priority).  It has basic queue, flush_work, flush_worker operations
which mostly match the workqueue counterparts; however, due to the way
flush_work() is implemented, it has a noticeable difference of not
allowing work items to be freed while being executed.

While the current users of kthread_worker are okay with the current
behavior, the restriction does impede some valid use cases.  Also,
removing this difference isn't difficult and actually makes the code
easier to understand.

This patch reimplements flush_kthread_work() such that it uses a
flush_work item instead of queue/done sequence numbers.

Merge emailed kgdb dmesg fixups patches from Anton Vorontsov:
 "The dmesg command appears to be broken after the printk rework.  The

  The first patch revives the command by switching to kmsg_dumper
  iterator.  As a side-effect, the code is now much more simpler.

  A few changes were needed in the printk.c: we needed unlocked variant
  of the kmsg_dumper iterator, but these can surely wait for 3.6.

  It's probably too late even for the first patch to go to 3.5, but I'll
  try to convince otherwise.  :-) Here we go:

   - The current code is broken for sure, and has no hope to work at
     all.  It is a regression
   - The new code works for me, and probably works for everyone else;
   - If it compiles (and I urge everyone to compile-test it on your

a4683487f9 [SCSI] async: make async_synchronize_full() flush all work regardless of domain
In response to an async related regression James noted:

  "My theory is that this is an init problem: The assumption in a lot of
   our code is that async_synchronize_full() waits for everything ... even
   the domain specific async schedules, which isn't true."

...so make this assumption true.

Each domain, including the default one, registers itself on a global domain
list when work is scheduled.  Once all entries complete it exits that
list.  Waiting for the list to be empty syncs all in-flight work across
all domains.

Domains can opt-out of global syncing if they are declared as exclusive
ASYNC_DOMAIN_EXCLUSIVE().  All stack-based domains have been declared
exclusive since the domain may go out of scope as soon as the last work
item completes.

Statically declared domains are mostly ok, but async_unregister_domain()
is there to close any theoretical races with pending
async_synchronize_full waiters at module removal time.

This is in preparation for teaching async_synchronize_full() to sync all
pending async work, and not just on the async_running domain.  This
conversion is functionally equivalent, just embedding the existing list
in a new async_domain type.

The .registered attribute is used in a later patch to distinguish
between domains that want to be flushed by async_synchronize_full()
versus those that only expect async_synchronize_{full|cookie}_domain to
be used for flushing.

6791457a09 printk: Export struct log size and member offsets through vmcoreinfo
There are tools like makedumpfile and vmcore-dmesg which can extract
kernel log buffer from vmcore. Since we introduced structured logging,
that functionality is broken. Now user space tools need to know about
"struct log" and offsets of various fields to be able to parse struct
log data and extract text message or dictonary.

This patch exports some of the fields.

Currently I am not exporting log "level" info as that is a bitfield and
offsetof() bitfields can't be calculated. But if people start asking for
log level info in the output then we probably either need to seprate
out "level" or use bit shift operations for flags and level.

08f6fba503 ftrace/x86: Add separate function to save regs
Add a way to have different functions calling different trampolines.
If a ftrace_ops wants regs saved on the return, then have only the
functions with ops registered to save regs. Functions registered by
other ops would not be affected, unless the functions overlap.

If one ftrace_ops registered functions A, B and C and another ops
registered fucntions to save regs on A, and D, then only functions
A and D would be saving regs. Function B and C would work as normal.
Although A is registered by both ops: normal and saves regs; this is fine
as saving the regs is needed to satisfy one of the ops that calls it
but the regs are ignored by the other ops function.

x86_64 implements the full regs saving, and i386 just passes a NULL
for regs to satisfy the ftrace_ops passing. Where an arch must supply
both regs and ftrace_ops parameters, even if regs is just NULL.

It is OK for an arch to pass NULL regs. All function trace users that
require regs passing must add the flag FTRACE_OPS_FL_SAVE_REGS when
registering the ftrace_ops. If the arch does not support saving regs
then the ftrace_ops will fail to register. The flag
FTRACE_OPS_FL_SAVE_REGS_IF_SUPPORTED may be set that will prevent the
ftrace_ops from failing to register. In this case, the handler may
either check if regs is not NULL or check if ARCH_SUPPORTS_FTRACE_SAVE_REGS.
If the arch supports passing regs it will set this macro and pass regs
for ops that request them. All other archs will just pass NULL.

Return as the 4th paramater to the function tracer callback the pt_regs.

Later patches that implement regs passing for the architectures will require
having the ftrace_ops set the SAVE_REGS flag, which will tell the arch
to take the time to pass a full set of pt_regs to the ftrace_ops callback
function. If the arch does not support it then it should pass NULL.

If an arch can pass full regs, then it should define:

ccf3672d53 ftrace: Consolidate arch dependent functions with 'list' function
As the function tracer starts to get more features, the support for
theses features will spread out throughout the different architectures
over time. These features boil down to what each arch does in the
mcount trampoline (the ftrace_caller).

Currently there's two features that are not the same throughout the
archs.

 1) Support to stop function tracing before the callback
 2) passing of the ftrace ops

Both of these require placing an indirect function to support the
features if the mcount trampoline does not.

On a side note, for all architectures, when more than one callback
is registered to the function tracer, an intermediate 'list' function
is called by the mcount trampoline to iterate through the callbacks
that are registered.

Instead of making a separate function for each of these features,
and requiring several indirect calls, just use the single 'list' function
as the intermediate, to handle all cases. If an arch does not support
the 'stop function tracing' or the passing of ftrace ops, just force
it to use the list function that will handle the features required.

This makes the code cleaner and simpler and removes a lot of
 #ifdefs in the code.

eea03c20ae Make wait_for_device_probe() also do scsi_complete_async_scans()
Commit a7a20d1039 ("sd: limit the scope of the async probe domain")
make the SCSI device probing run device discovery in it's own async
domain.

However, as a result, the partition detection was no longer synchronized
by async_synchronize_full() (which, despite the name, only synchronizes
the global async space, not all of them).  Which in turn meant that
"wait_for_device_probe()" would not wait for the SCSI partitions to be
parsed.

And "wait_for_device_probe()" was what the boot time init code relied on
for mounting the root filesystem.

Now, most people never noticed this, because not only is it
timing-dependent, but modern distributions all use initrd.  So the root
filesystem isn't actually on a disk at all.  And then before they
actually mount the final disk filesystem, they will have loaded the
scsi-wait-scan module, which not only does the expected
wait_for_device_probe(), but also does scsi_complete_async_scans().

[ Side note: scsi_complete_async_scans() had also been partially broken,
  but that was fixed in commit 43a8d39d01 ("fix async probe
  regression"), so that same commit a7a20d1039 had actually broken
  setups even if you used scsi-wait-scan explicitly ]

Solve this problem by just moving the scsi_complete_async_scans() call
into wait_for_device_probe().  Everybody who wants to wait for device
probing to finish really wants the SCSI probing to complete, so there's
no reason not to do this.

So now "wait_for_device_probe()" really does what the name implies, and
properly waits for device probing to finish.  This also removes the now
unnecessary extra calls to scsi_complete_async_scans().

628c78e7ea workqueue: remove CPU offline trustee
With the previous changes, a disassociated global_cwq now can run as
an unbound one on its own - it can create workers as necessary to
drain remaining works after the CPU has been brought down and manage
the number of workers using the usual idle timer mechanism making
trustee completely redundant except for the actual unbinding
operation.

This patch removes the trustee and let a disassociated global_cwq
manage itself.  Unbinding is moved to a work item (for CPU affinity)
which is scheduled and flushed from CPU_DONW_PREPARE.

This patch moves nr_running clearing outside gcwq and manager locks to
simplify the code.  As nr_running is unused at the point, this is
safe.

3ce6337730 workqueue: don't butcher idle workers on an offline CPU
Currently, during CPU offlining, after all pending work items are
drained, the trustee butchers all workers.  Also, on CPU onlining
failure, workqueue_cpu_callback() ensures that the first idle worker
is destroyed.  Combined, these guarantee that an offline CPU doesn't
have any worker for it once all the lingering work items are finished.

This guarantee isn't really necessary and makes CPU on/offlining more
expensive than needs to be, especially for platforms which use CPU
hotplug for powersaving.

This patch lets offline CPUs removes idle worker butchering from the
trustee and let a CPU which failed onlining keep the created first
worker.  The first worker is created if the CPU doesn't have any
during CPU_DOWN_PREPARE and started right away.  If onlining succeeds,
the rebind_workers() call in CPU_ONLINE will rebind it like any other
workers.  If onlining fails, the worker is left alone till the next
try.

This makes CPU hotplugs cheaper by allowing global_cwqs to keep
workers across them and simplifies code.

Note that trustee doesn't re-arm idle timer when it's done and thus
the disassociated global_cwq will keep all workers until it comes back
online.  This will be improved by further patches.

25511a4776 workqueue: reimplement CPU online rebinding to handle idle workers
Currently, if there are left workers when a CPU is being brough back
online, the trustee kills all idle workers and scheduled rebind_work
so that they re-bind to the CPU after the currently executing work is
finished.  This works for busy workers because concurrency management
doesn't try to wake up them from scheduler callbacks, which require
the target task to be on the local run queue.  The busy worker bumps
concurrency counter appropriately as it clears WORKER_UNBOUND from the
rebind work item and it's bound to the CPU before returning to the
idle state.

To reduce CPU on/offlining overhead (as many embedded systems use it
for powersaving) and simplify the code path, workqueue is planned to
be modified to retain idle workers across CPU on/offlining.  This
patch reimplements CPU online rebinding such that it can also handle
idle workers.

As noted earlier, due to the local wakeup requirement, rebinding idle
workers is tricky.  All idle workers must be re-bound before scheduler
callbacks are enabled.  This is achieved by interlocking idle
re-binding.  Idle workers are requested to re-bind and then hold until
all idle re-binding is complete so that no bound worker starts
executing work item.  Only after all idle workers are re-bound and
parked, CPU_ONLINE proceeds to release them and queue rebind work item
to busy workers thus guaranteeing scheduler callbacks aren't invoked
until all idle workers are ready.

worker_rebind_fn() is renamed to busy_worker_rebind_fn() and
idle_worker_rebind() for idle workers is added.  Rebinding logic is
moved to rebind_workers() and now called from CPU_ONLINE after
flushing trustee.  While at it, add CPU sanity check in
worker_thread().

Note that now a worker may become idle or the manager between trustee
release and rebinding during CPU_ONLINE.  As the previous patch
updated create_worker() so that it can be used by regular manager
while unbound and this patch implements idle re-binding, this is safe.

This prepares for removal of trustee and keeping idle workers across
CPU hotplugs.

bc2ae0f5bb workqueue: drop @bind from create_worker()
Currently, create_worker()'s callers are responsible for deciding
whether the newly created worker should be bound to the associated CPU
and create_worker() sets WORKER_UNBOUND only for the workers for the
unbound global_cwq.  Creation during normal operation is always via
maybe_create_worker() and @bind is true.  For workers created during
hotplug, @bind is false.

Normal operation path is planned to be used even while the CPU is
going through hotplug operations or offline and this static decision
won't work.

Drop @bind from create_worker() and decide whether to bind by looking
at GCWQ_DISASSOCIATED.  create_worker() will also set WORKER_UNBOUND
autmatically if disassociated.  To avoid flipping GCWQ_DISASSOCIATED
while create_worker() is in progress, the flag is now allowed to be
changed only while holding all manager_mutexes on the global_cwq.

This requires that GCWQ_DISASSOCIATED is not cleared behind trustee's
back.  CPU_ONLINE no longer clears DISASSOCIATED before flushing
trustee, which clears DISASSOCIATED before rebinding remaining workers
if asked to release.  For cases where trustee isn't around, CPU_ONLINE
clears DISASSOCIATED after flushing trustee.  Also, now, first_idle
has UNBOUND set on creation which is explicitly cleared by CPU_ONLINE
while binding it.  These convolutions will soon be removed by further
simplification of CPU hotplug path.

6037315269 workqueue: use mutex for global_cwq manager exclusion
POOL_MANAGING_WORKERS is used to ensure that at most one worker takes
the manager role at any given time on a given global_cwq.  Trustee
later hitched on it to assume manager adding blocking wait for the
bit.  As trustee already needed a custom wait mechanism, waiting for
MANAGING_WORKERS was rolled into the same mechanism.

Trustee is scheduled to be removed.  This patch separates out
MANAGING_WORKERS wait into per-pool mutex.  Workers use
mutex_trylock() to test for manager role and trustee uses mutex_lock()
to claim manager roles.

gcwq_claim/release_management() helpers are added to grab and release
manager roles of all pools on a global_cwq.  gcwq_claim_management()
always grabs pool manager mutexes in ascending pool index order and
uses pool index as lockdep subclass.

in worker_enter_idle() where WORKER_ROGUE is used to skip scheduling
idle timer, which can easily be replaced with trustee state testing.

WORKER_ROGUE.  This is to prepare for removing trustee and handling

6575820221 workqueue: perform cpu down operations from low priority cpu_notifier()
Currently, all workqueue cpu hotplug operations run off
CPU_PRI_WORKQUEUE which is higher than normal notifiers.  This is to
ensure that workqueue is up and running while bringing up a CPU before
other notifiers try to use workqueue on the CPU.

Per-cpu workqueues are supposed to remain working and bound to the CPU
for normal CPU_DOWN_PREPARE notifiers.  This holds mostly true even
with workqueue offlining running with higher priority because
workqueue CPU_DOWN_PREPARE only creates a bound trustee thread which
runs the per-cpu workqueue without concurrency management without
explicitly detaching the existing workers.

However, if the trustee needs to create new workers, it creates
unbound workers which may wander off to other CPUs while
CPU_DOWN_PREPARE notifiers are in progress.  Furthermore, if the CPU
down is cancelled, the per-CPU workqueue may end up with workers which
aren't bound to the CPU.

While reliably reproducible with a convoluted artificial test-case
involving scheduling and flushing CPU burning work items from CPU down
notifiers, this isn't very likely to happen in the wild, and, even
when it happens, the effects are likely to be hidden by the following
successful CPU down.

Fix it by using different priorities for up and down notifiers - high
priority for up operations and low priority for down operations.

Workqueue cpu hotplug operations will soon go through further cleanup.

f726a697d0 time: Rework timekeeping functions to take timekeeper ptr as argument
As part of cleaning up the timekeeping code, this patch converts
a number of internal functions to takei a timekeeper ptr as an
argument, so that the internal functions don't access the global
timekeeper structure directly. This allows for further optimizations
to reduce lock hold time later.

This patch has been updated to include more consistent usage of the
timekeeper value, by making sure it is always passed as a argument
to non top-level functions.

2a8c0883c3 time: Move xtime_nsec adjustment underflow handling timekeeping_adjust
When we make adjustments speeding up the clock, its possible
for xtime_nsec to underflow. We already handle this properly,
but we do so from update_wall_time() instead of the more logical
timekeeping_adjust(), where the possible underflow actually
occurs.

Thus, move the correction logic to the timekeeping_adjust, which
is the function that causes the issue. Making update_wall_time()
more readable.

1e75fa8be9 time: Condense timekeeper.xtime into xtime_sec
The timekeeper struct has a xtime_nsec, which keeps the
sub-nanosecond remainder.  This ends up being somewhat
duplicative of the timekeeper.xtime.tv_nsec value, and we
have to do extra work to keep them apart, copying the full
nsec portion out and back in over and over.

This patch simplifies some of the logic by taking the timekeeper
xtime value and splitting it into timekeeper.xtime_sec and
reuses the timekeeper.xtime_nsec for the sub-second portion
(stored in higher res shifted nanoseconds).

This simplifies some of the accumulation logic. And will
allow for more accurate timekeeping once the vsyscall code
is updated to use the shifted nanosecond remainder.

6b1859dba0 ntp: Fix STA_INS/DEL clearing bug
In commit 6b43ae8a61, I
introduced a bug that kept the STA_INS or STA_DEL bit
from being cleared from time_status via adjtimex()
without forcing STA_PLL first.

Usually once the STA_INS is set, it isn't cleared
until the leap second is applied, so its unlikely this
affected anyone. However during testing I noticed it
took some effort to cancel a leap second once STA_INS
was set.

775f4b297b random: make 'add_interrupt_randomness()' do something sane
We've been moving away from add_interrupt_randomness() for various
reasons: it's too expensive to do on every interrupt, and flooding the
CPU with interrupts could theoretically cause bogus floods of entropy
from a somewhat externally controllable source.

This solves both problems by limiting the actual randomness addition
to just once a second or after 64 interrupts, whicever comes first.
During that time, the interrupt cycle data is buffered up in a per-cpu
pool.  Also, we make sure the the nonblocking pool used by urandom is
initialized before we start feeding the normal input pool.  This
assures that /dev/urandom is returning unpredictable data as soon as
possible.

(Based on an original patch by Linus, but significantly modified by
tytso.)

3270476a6c workqueue: reimplement WQ_HIGHPRI using a separate worker_pool
WQ_HIGHPRI was implemented by queueing highpri work items at the head
of the global worklist.  Other than queueing at the head, they weren't
handled differently; unfortunately, this could lead to execution
latency of a few seconds on heavily loaded systems.

Now that workqueue code has been updated to deal with multiple
worker_pools per global_cwq, this patch reimplements WQ_HIGHPRI using
a separate worker_pool.  NR_WORKER_POOLS is bumped to two and
gcwq->pools[0] is used for normal pri work items and ->pools[1] for
highpri.  Highpri workers get -20 nice level and has 'H' suffix in
their names.  Note that this change increases the number of kworkers
per cpu.

POOL_HIGHPRI_PENDING, pool_determine_ins_pos() and highpri chain
wakeup code in process_one_work() are no longer used and removed.

This allows proper prioritization of highpri work items and removes
high execution latency of highpri work items.

5baefd6d84 hrtimer: Update hrtimer base offsets each hrtimer_interrupt
The update of the hrtimer base offsets on all cpus cannot be made
atomically from the timekeeper.lock held and interrupt disabled region
as smp function calls are not allowed there.

clock_was_set(), which enforces the update on all cpus, is called
either from preemptible process context in case of do_settimeofday()
or from the softirq context when the offset modification happened in
the timer interrupt itself due to a leap second.

In both cases there is a race window for an hrtimer interrupt between
dropping timekeeper lock, enabling interrupts and clock_was_set()
issuing the updates. Any interrupt which arrives in that window will
see the new time but operate on stale offsets.

So we need to make sure that an hrtimer interrupt always sees a
consistent state of time and offsets.

ktime_get_update_offsets() allows us to get the current monotonic time
and update the per cpu hrtimer base offsets from hrtimer_interrupt()
to capture a consistent state of monotonic time and the offsets. The
function replaces the existing ktime_get() calls in hrtimer_interrupt().

The overhead of the new function vs. ktime_get() is minimal as it just
adds two store operations.

This ensures that any changes to realtime or boottime offsets are
noticed and stored into the per-cpu hrtimer base structures, prior to
any hrtimer expiration and guarantees that timers are not expired early.

overhead. The previous patch which provides ktime_t offsets allows us
to make this function almost as cheap as ktime_get() which is going to

196951e912 hrtimers: Move lock held region in hrtimer_interrupt()
We need to update the base offsets from this code and we need to do
that under base->lock. Move the lock held region around the
ktime_get() calls. The ktime_get() calls are going to be replaced with
a function which gets the time and the offsets atomically.

5b9fe759a6 timekeeping: Maintain ktime_t based offsets for hrtimers
We need to update the hrtimer clock offsets from the hrtimer interrupt
context. To avoid conversions from timespec to ktime_t maintain a
ktime_t based representation of those offsets in the timekeeper. This
puts the conversion overhead into the code which updates the
underlying offsets and provides fast accessible values in the hrtimer
interrupt.

4873fa070a timekeeping: Fix leapsecond triggered load spike issue
The timekeeping code misses an update of the hrtimer subsystem after a
leap second happened. Due to that timers based on CLOCK_REALTIME are
either expiring a second early or late depending on whether a leap
second has been inserted or deleted until an operation is initiated
which causes that update. Unless the update happens by some other
means this discrepancy between the timekeeping and the hrtimer data
stays forever and timers are expired either early or late.

The reported immediate workaround - $ data -s "`date`" - is causing a
call to clock_was_set() which updates the hrtimer data structures.
See: http://www.sheeri.com/content/mysql-and-leap-second-high-cpu-and-fix

Add the missing clock_was_set() call to update_wall_time() in case of
a leap second event. The actual update is deferred to softirq context
as the necessary smp function call cannot be invoked from hard
interrupt context.

f55a6faa38 hrtimer: Provide clock_was_set_delayed()
clock_was_set() cannot be called from hard interrupt context because
it calls on_each_cpu().

For fixing the widely reported leap seconds issue it is necessary to
call it from hard interrupt context, i.e. the timer tick code, which
does the timekeeping updates.

Provide a new function which denotes it in the hrtimer cpu base
structure of the cpu on which it is called and raise the hrtimer
softirq. We then execute the clock_was_set() notificiation from
softirq context in run_hrtimer_softirq(). The hrtimer softirq is
rarely used, so polling the flag there is not a performance issue.

98aa468e04 irqdomain: Support for static IRQ mapping and association.
This adds a new strict mapping API for supporting creation of linux IRQs
at existing positions within the domain. The new routines are as follows:

For dynamic allocation and insertion to specified ranges:

	- irq_create_identity_mapping()
	- irq_create_strict_mappings()

These will allocate and associate a range of linux IRQs at the specified
location. This can be used by controllers that have their own static linux IRQ
definitions to map a hwirq range to, as well as for platforms that wish to
establish 1:1 identity mapping between linux and hwirq space.

For insertion to specified ranges by platforms that do their own irq_desc
management:

	- irq_domain_associate()
	- irq_domain_associate_many()

These in turn call back in to the domain's ->map() routine, for further
processing by the platform. Disassociation of IRQs get handled through
irq_dispose_mapping() as normal.

With these in place it should be possible to begin migration of legacy IRQ
domains to linear ones, without requiring special handling for static vs
dynamic IRQ definitions in DT vs non-DT paths. This also makes it possible
for domains with static mappings to adopt whichever tree model best fits
their needs, rather than simply restricting them to linear revmaps.

781d0f46d8 irq_domain: Standardise legacy/linear domain selection
A large proportion of interrupt controllers that support legacy mappings
do so because non-DT systems need to use fixed IRQ numbers when registering
devices via buses but can otherwise use a linear mapping. The interrupt
controller itself typically is not affected by the mapping used and best
practice is to use a linear mapping where possible so drivers frequently
select at runtime depending on if a legacy range has been allocated to
them.

Standardise this behaviour by providing irq_domain_register_simple() which
will allocate a linear mapping unless a positive first_irq is provided in
which case it will fall back to a legacy mapping. This helps make best
practice for irq_domain adoption clearer.

5db9a4d99b cgroup: fix cgroup hierarchy umount race
48ddbe1946 "cgroup: make css->refcnt clearing on cgroup removal
optional" allowed a css to linger after the associated cgroup is
removed.  As a css holds a reference on the cgroup's dentry, it means
that cgroup dentries may linger for a while.

Destroying a superblock which has dentries with positive refcnts is a
critical bug and triggers BUG() in vfs code.  As each cgroup dentry
holds an s_active reference, any lingering cgroup has both its dentry
and the superblock pinned and thus preventing premature release of
superblock.

Unfortunately, after 48ddbe1946, there's a small window while
releasing a cgroup which is directly under the root of the hierarchy.
When a cgroup directory is released, vfs layer first deletes the
corresponding dentry and then invokes dput() on the parent, which may
recurse further, so when a cgroup directly below root cgroup is
released, the cgroup is first destroyed - which releases the s_active
it was holding - and then the dentry for the root cgroup is dput().

This creates a window where the root dentry's refcnt isn't zero but
superblock's s_active is.  If umount happens before or during this
window, vfs will see the root dentry with non-zero refcnt and trigger
BUG().

Before 48ddbe1946, this problem didn't exist because the last dentry
reference was guaranteed to be put synchronously from rmdir(2)
invocation which holds s_active around the whole process.

Fix it by holding an extra superblock->s_active reference across
dput() from css release, which is the dput() path added by 48ddbe1946
and the only one which doesn't hold an extra s_active ref across the
final cgroup dput().

cb424ffe9f kmsg: properly handle concurrent non-blocking read() from /proc/kmsg
The /proc/kmsg read() interface is internally simply wired up to a sequence
of syslog() syscalls, which might are racy between their checks and actions,
regarding concurrency.

In the (very uncommon) case of concurrent readers of /dev/kmsg, relying on
usual O_NONBLOCK behavior, the recently introduced mutex might block an
O_NONBLOCK reader in read(), when poll() returns for it, but another process
has already read the data in the meantime. We've seen that while running
artificial test setups and tools that "fight" about /proc/kmsg data.

This restores the original /proc/kmsg behavior, where in case of concurrent
read()s, poll() might wake up but the read() syscall will just return 0 to
the caller, while another process has "stolen" the data.

This is in the general case not the expected behavior, but it is the exact
same one, that can easily be triggered with a 3.4 kernel, and some tools
might just rely on it.

The mutex is not needed, the original integrity issue which introduced it,
is in the meantime covered by:
  "fill buffer with more than a single message for SYSLOG_ACTION_READ"

c701d5d9b3 rcu: Fix code-style issues involving "else"
The Linux kernel coding style says that single-statement blocks should
omit curly braces unless the other leg of the "if" statement has
multiple statements, in which case the curly braces should be included.
This commit fixes RCU's violations of this rule.

Thanks to Charles Wang for spotting the defects in the current code:

 - If we go idle during the sample window -- after sampling, we get a
   negative bias because we can negate our own sample.

 - If we wake up during the sample window we get a positive bias
   because we push the sample to a known active period.

So rewrite the entire nohz load-avg muck once again, now adding

c6ebcbb60c rcu: Fix bug in rcu_barrier() torture test
The child threads in the rcu_torture_barrier_cbs() are improperly
synchronized, which can cause the rcu_barrier() tests to hang.  The
failure mode is as follows:

1.	CPU 0 running in rcu_torture_barrier() sets barrier_cbs_count
    	to n_barrier_cbs.

2.	CPU 1 running in rcu_torture_barrier_cbs() wakes up, posts
    	its RCU callback, and atomically decrements barrier_cbs_count.
    	Because barrier_cbs_count is not zero, it does not do the wake_up().

3.	CPU 2 running in rcu_torture_barrier_cbs() wakes up, but
    	finds that barrier_cbs_count is not equal to n_barrier_cbs,
    	and so returns to sleep.

4.	The value of barrier_cbs_count therefore never reaches zero,
    	which causes the test to hang.

This commit therefore uses a phase variable to coordinate the test,
preventing this scenario from occurring.

of the rcu_state structure's ->n_force_qs and ->n_force_qs_ngp fields
is therefore redundant, so this commit removes these initializations.

cca6f39319 rcu: Size rcu_node tree from nr_cpu_ids rather than NR_CPUS
The rcu_node tree array is sized based on compile-time constants,
including NR_CPUS.  Although this approach has worked well in the past,
the recent trend by many distros to define NR_CPUS=4096 results in
excessive grace-period-initialization latencies.

This commit therefore substitutes the run-time computed nr_cpu_ids for
the compile-time NR_CPUS when building the tree.  This can result in
much of the compile-time-allocated rcu_node array being unused.  If
this is a major problem, you are in a specialized situation anyway,
so you can manually adjust the NR_CPUS, RCU_FANOUT, and RCU_FANOUT_LEAF
kernel config parameters.

With the introduction of suspend to both into in-kernel hibernation
code, dmesg was getting polluted with backspace characters printed as
part of image saving progress indicator. This patch introduces printing
of progress indicator on image save/load every 10% and one line at a

during hibernation/thaw should now print cleanly as well.

443772d408 ftrace: Disable function tracing during suspend/resume and hibernation, again
If function tracing is enabled for some of the low-level suspend/resume
functions, it leads to triple fault during resume from suspend, ultimately
ending up in a reboot instead of a resume (or a total refusal to come out
of suspended state, on some machines).

This issue was explained in more detail in commit f42ac38c59 (ftrace:
disable tracing for suspend to ram). However, the changes made by that commit
got reverted by commit cbe2f5a6e8 (tracing: allow tracing of
suspend/resume & hibernation code again). So, unfortunately since things are
not yet robust enough to allow tracing of low-level suspend/resume functions,
suspend/resume is still broken when ftrace is enabled.

So fix this by disabling function tracing during suspend/resume & hibernation.

 years), and the restoration of the continuation line functionality
 reported by Stephen and others.  Yes, the changes seem a bit big this
 late in the cycle, but I've been beating on them for a while now, and
 Stephen has even optimized it a bit, so all looks good to me.
 
 The other change in here is a Documentation update for the stable kernel
 rules describing how some distro patches should be backported, to
 hopefully drive a bit more response from the distros to the stable
 kernel releases.

a31f2d17b3 netlink: add netlink_kernel_cfg parameter to netlink_kernel_create
This patch adds the following structure:

struct netlink_kernel_cfg {
        unsigned int    groups;
        void            (*input)(struct sk_buff *skb);
        struct mutex    *cb_mutex;
};

That can be passed to netlink_kernel_create to set optional configurations
for netlink kernel sockets.

I've populated this structure by looking for NULL and zero parameters at the
existing code. The remaining parameters that always need to be set are still
left in the original interface.

That includes optional parameters for the netlink socket creation. This allows
easy extensibility of this interface in the future.

This patch also adapts all callers to use this new interface.

Put together the two 'cont.len && cont.owner == current' if statements

removes the unneeded double cont_flush() calls.

The new_pages list head in the cpu_buffer is not initialized. When
adding pages to the ring buffer, if the memory allocation fails in
ring_buffer_resize, the clean up handler tries to free up the allocated

084681d14e printk: flush continuation lines immediately to console
Continuation lines are buffered internally, intended to merge the
chunked printk()s into a single record, and to isolate potentially
racy continuation users from usual terminated line users.

This though, has the effect that partial lines are not printed to
the console in the moment they are emitted. In case the kernel
crashes in the meantime, the potentially interesting printed
information would never reach the consoles.

Here we share the continuation buffer with the console copy logic,
and partial lines are always immediately flushed to the available
consoles. They are still buffered internally to improve the
readability and integrity of the messages and minimize the amount
of needed record headers to store.
