ff7dcd44dd genirq: Create irq_data
Low level chip functions need access to irq_desc->handler_data,
irq_desc->chip_data and irq_desc->msi_desc. We hand down the irq
number to the low level functions, so they need to lookup irq_desc.
With sparse irq this means a radix tree lookup.

We could hand down irq_desc itself, but low level chip functions have
no need to fiddle with it directly and we want to restrict access to
irq_desc further.

Preparatory patch for new chip functions.

Note, that the ugly anon union/struct is there to avoid a full tree
wide clean up for now. This is not going to last 3 years like __do_IRQ()

c41d68a513 compat: Make compat_alloc_user_space() incorporate the access_ok()
compat_alloc_user_space() expects the caller to independently call
access_ok() to verify the returned area.  A missing call could
introduce problems on some architectures.

This patch incorporates the access_ok() check into
compat_alloc_user_space() and also adds a sanity check on the length.
The existing compat_alloc_user_space() implementations are renamed
arch_compat_alloc_user_space() and are used as part of the
implementation of the new global function.

This patch assumes NULL will cause __get_user()/__put_user() to either
fail or access userspace on all architectures.  This should be
followed by checking the return value of compat_access_user_space()
for NULL in the callers, at which time the access_ok() in the callers
can also be removed.

0bf377bbb0 sched: Improve latencies under load by decreasing minimum scheduling granularity
Mathieu reported bad latencies with make -j10 kind of kbuild
workloads - which is mostly caused by us scheduling with a
too coarse granularity.

Reduce the minimum granularity some more, to make sure we
can meet the latency target.

I got the following results (make -j10 kbuild load, average of 3
runs):

 vanilla:

  maximum latency: 38278.9 µs
  average latency:  7730.1 µs

 patched:

  maximum latency: 22702.1 µs
  average latency:  6684.8 µs

Mathieu also measured it:

|
| * wakeup-latency.c (SIGEV_THREAD) with make -j10
|
| - Mainline 2.6.35.2 kernel
|
| maximum latency: 45762.1 µs
| average latency: 7348.6 µs
|
| - With only Peter's smaller min_gran (shown below):
|
| maximum latency: 29100.6 µs
| average latency: 6684.1 µs

6715045ddc PM / Hibernate: Avoid hitting OOM during preallocation of memory
There is a problem in hibernate_preallocate_memory() that it calls
preallocate_image_memory() with an argument that may be greater than
the total number of available non-highmem memory pages.  If that's
the case, the OOM condition is guaranteed to trigger, which in turn
can cause significant slowdown to occur during hibernation.

To avoid that, make preallocate_image_memory() adjust its argument
before calling preallocate_image_pages(), so that the total number of
saveable non-highem pages left is not less than the minimum size of
a hibernation image.  Change hibernate_preallocate_memory() to try to
allocate from highmem if the number of pages allocated by
preallocate_image_memory() is too low.

Modify free_unnecessary_pages() to take all possible memory
allocation patterns into account.

df09162550 tracing: t_start: reset FTRACE_ITER_HASH in case of seek/pread
Be sure to avoid entering t_show() with FTRACE_ITER_HASH set without
having properly started the iterator to iterate the hash.  This case is
degenerate and, as discovered by Robert Swiecki, can cause t_hash_show()
to misuse a pointer.  This causes a NULL ptr deref with possible security
implications.  Tracked as CVE-2010-3079.

910321ea81 swap: revert special hibernation allocation
Please revert 2.6.36-rc commit d2997b1042
"hibernation: freeze swap at hibernation".  It complicated matters by
adding a second swap allocation path, just for hibernation; without in any
way fixing the issue that it was intended to address - page reclaim after
fixing the hibernation image might free swap from a page already imaged as
swapcache, letting its swap be reallocated to store a different page of
the image: resulting in data corruption if the imaged page were freed as
clean then swapped back in.  Pages freed to si->swap_map were still in
danger of being reallocated by the alternative allocation path.

I guess it inadvertently fixed slow SSD swap allocation for hibernation,
as reported by Nigel Cunningham: by missing out the discards that occur on
the usual swap allocation path; but that was unintentional, and needs a
separate fix.

31583bb0cf cgroups: fix API thinko
Add cgroup_attach_task_all()

The existing cgroup_attach_task_current_cg() API is called by a thread to
attach another thread to all of its cgroups; this is unsuitable for cases
where a privileged task wants to attach itself to the cgroups of a less
privileged one, since the call must be made from the context of the target
task.

This patch adds a more generic cgroup_attach_task_all() API that allows
both the source task and to-be-moved task to be specified.
cgroup_attach_task_current_cg() becomes a specialization of the more
generic new function.

85a0fdfd0f gcov: fix null-pointer dereference for certain module types
The gcov-kernel infrastructure expects that each object file is loaded
only once.  This may not be true, e.g.  when loading multiple kernel
modules which are linked to the same object file.  As a result, loading
such kernel modules will result in incorrect gcov results while unloading
will cause a null-pointer dereference.

This patch fixes these problems by changing the gcov-kernel infrastructure
so that multiple profiling data sets can be associated with one debugfs
entry.  It applies to 2.6.36-rc1.

aba91595cf tracing/kprobes: Fix handling of argument names
Set "argN" name for each argument automatically if it has no specified name.
Since dynamic trace event(kprobe_events) accepts special characters for its
argument, its format can show those special characters (e.g. '$', '%', '+').
However, perf can't parse those format because of the character (especially
'%') mess up the format.  This sets "argX" name for those arguments if user
omitted the argument names.

E.g.
 # echo 'p do_fork %ax IP=%ip $stack' > tracing/kprobe_events
 # cat tracing/kprobe_events
 p:kprobes/p_do_fork_0 do_fork arg1=%ax IP=%ip arg3=$stack

Fix a memory leak which happens when a field name conflicts with others. In

9c55cb12c1 tracing: Do not allow llseek to set_ftrace_filter
Reading the file set_ftrace_filter does three things.

1) shows whether or not filters are set for the function tracer
2) shows what functions are set for the function tracer
3) shows what triggers are set on any functions

3 is independent from 1 and 2.

The way this file currently works is that it is a state machine,
and as you read it, it may change state. But this assumption breaks
when you use lseek() on the file. The state machine gets out of sync
and the t_show() may use the wrong pointer and cause a kernel oops.

Luckily, this will only kill the app that does the lseek, but the app
dies while holding a mutex. This prevents anyone else from using the
set_ftrace_filter file (or any other function tracing file for that matter).

A real fix for this is to rewrite the code, but that is too much for
a -rc release or stable. This patch simply disables llseek on the
set_ftrace_filter() file for now, and we can do the proper fix for the
next major release.

68d3f1d810 lockup_detector: Sync touch_*_watchdog back to old semantics
During my rewrite, the semantics of touch_nmi_watchdog and
touch_softlockup_watchdog changed enough to break some drivers
(mostly over preemptable regions).

These are cases where long delays on one CPU (due to
print_delay for example) can cause long delays on other
CPUs - so we must 'touch' the nmi_watchdog flag of those
other CPUs as well.

This change brings those touch_*_watchdog() functions back in line
with to how they used to work.

It turns out that the setpgid() system call fails to enter an RCU
read-side critical section before doing a PID-to-task_struct translation.
This commit therefore does rcu_read_lock() before the translation, and
also does rcu_read_unlock() after the last use of the returned pointer.

3aaba20f26 tracing: Fix a race in function profile
While we are reading trace_stat/functionX and someone just
disabled function_profile at that time, we can trigger this:

	divide error: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP
	...
	EIP is at function_stat_show+0x90/0x230
	...

This fix just takes the ftrace_profile_lock and checks if
rec->counter is 0. If it's 0, we know the profile buffer
has been reset.

fa66f07aa1 perf_events: Fix time tracking for events with pid != -1 and cpu != -1
Per-thread events with a cpu filter, i.e., cpu != -1, were not
reporting correct timings when the thread never ran on the
monitored cpu. The time enabled was reported as a negative
value.

This patch fixes the problem by updating tstamp_stopped,
tstamp_running in event_sched_out() for events with filters and
which are marked as INACTIVE.

The function group_sched_out() is modified to systematically
call into event_sched_out() to avoid duplicating the timing
adjustment code twice.

With the patch, I now get:

$ task_cpu -i -e unhalted_core_cycles,unhalted_core_cycles
noploop 2 noploop for 2 seconds
CPU0 0		   unhalted_core_cycles (ena=1,991,136,594, run=0)
