527087374f posix-timers: Cleanup namespace
Rename register_posix_clock() to posix_timers_register_clock(). That's
what the function really does. As a side effect this cleans up the
posix_clock namespace for the upcoming dynamic posix_clock
infrastructure.

1976945eea posix-timers: Introduce clock_posix_cpu
The CLOCK_DISPATCH() macro is a horrible magic. We call common
functions if a function pointer is not set. That's just backwards.

To support dynamic file decriptor based clocks we need to cleanup that
dispatch logic.

Create a k_clock struct clock_posix_cpu which has all the
posix-cpu-timer functions filled in. After the cleanup the functions
can be made static.

c0deae8c95 posix-cpu-timers: Rcu_read_lock/unlock protect find_task_by_vpid call
Commit 4221a9918e "Add RCU check for
find_task_by_vpid()" introduced rcu_lockdep_assert to find_task_by_pid_ns.
Add rcu_read_lock/rcu_read_unlock to call find_task_by_vpid.

8d1f431cbe sched: Fix the racy usage of thread_group_cputimer() in fastpath_timer_check()
fastpath_timer_check()->thread_group_cputimer() is racy and
unneeded.

It is racy because another thread can clear ->running before
thread_group_cputimer() takes cputimer->lock. In this case
thread_group_cputimer() will set ->running = true again and call
thread_group_cputime(). But since we do not hold tasklist or
siglock, we can race with fork/exit and copy the wrong results
into cputimer->cputime.

It is unneeded because if ->running == true we can just use
the numbers in cputimer->cputime we already have.

Change fastpath_timer_check() to copy cputimer->cputime into
the local variable under cputimer->lock. We do not re-check
->running under cputimer->lock, run_posix_cpu_timers() does
this check later.

Note: we can add more optimizations on top of this change.

0bdd2ed413 sched: run_posix_cpu_timers: Don't check ->exit_state, use lock_task_sighand()
run_posix_cpu_timers() doesn't work if current has already passed
exit_notify(). This was needed to prevent the races with do_wait().

Since ea6d290c ->signal is always valid and can't go away. We can
remove the "tsk->exit_state == 0" in fastpath_timer_check() and
convert run_posix_cpu_timers() to use lock_task_sighand().

Note: it makes sense to take group_leader's sighand instead, the
sub-thread still uses CPU after release_task(). But we need more
changes to do this.

bfac700918 sched: thread_group_cputime: Simplify, document the "alive" check
thread_group_cputime() looks as if it is rcu-safe, but in fact this
was wrong until ea6d290c which pins task->signal to task_struct.
It checks ->sighand != NULL under rcu, but this can't help if ->signal
can go away. Fortunately the caller either holds ->siglock, or it is
fastpath_timer_check() which uses current and checks exit_state == 0.

- Since ea6d290c commit tsk->signal is stable, we can read it first
  and avoid the initialization from INIT_CPUTIME.

- Even if tsk->signal is always valid, we still have to check it
  is safe to use next_thread() under rcu_read_lock(). Currently
  the code checks ->sighand != NULL, change it to use pid_alive()
  which is commonly used to ensure the task wasn't unhashed before
  we take rcu_read_lock().

  Add the comment to explain this check.

- Change the main loop to use the while_each_thread() helper.

d30fda3551 posix-cpu-timers: avoid "task->signal != NULL" checks
Preparation to make task->signal immutable, no functional changes.

posix-cpu-timers.c checks task->signal != NULL to ensure this task is
alive and didn't pass __exit_signal().  This is correct but we are going
to change the lifetime rules for ->signal and never reset this pointer.

Change the code to check ->sighand instead, it doesn't matter which
pointer we check under tasklist, they both are cleared simultaneously.

As Roland pointed out, some of these changes are not strictly needed and
probably it makes sense to revert them later, when ->signal will be pinned
to task_struct.  But this patch tries to ensure the subsequent changes in
fork/exit can't make any visible impact on posix cpu timers.

29f87b793d posix-cpu-timers: Optimize run_posix_cpu_timers()
We can optimize and simplify things taking into account signal->cputimer
is always running when we have configured any process wide cpu timer.

In check_process_timers(), we don't have to check if new updated value of
signal->cputime_expires is smaller, since we maintain new first expiration
time ({prof,virt,sched}_expires) in code flow and all other writes to
expiration cache are protected by sighand->siglock .

c28739375b cpu-timers: Avoid iterating over all threads in fastpath_timer_check()
Spread p->sighand->siglock locking scope to make sure that
fastpath_timer_check() never iterates over all threads. Without
locking there is small possibility that signal->cputimer will stop
running while we write values to signal->cputime_expires.

Calling thread_group_cputime() from fastpath_timer_check() is not only
bad because it is slow, also it is racy with __exit_signal() which can
lead to invalid signal->{s,u}time values.

17d42c1c49 posix_cpu_timers_exit_group(): Do not use thread_group_cputimer()
When the process exits we don't have to run new cputimer nor
use running one (as it not accounts when tsk->exit_state != 0)
to get process CPU times.  As there is only one thread we can
just use CPU times fields from task and signal structs.

8f2e586567 posix-timers: fix RLIMIT_CPU && setitimer(CPUCLOCK_PROF)
update_rlimit_cpu() tries to optimize out set_process_cpu_timer() in case
when we already have CPUCLOCK_PROF timer which should expire first. But it
uses cputime_lt() instead of cputime_gt().

Test case:

	int main(void)
	{
		struct itimerval it = {
			.it_value = { .tv_sec = 1000 },
		};

		assert(!setitimer(ITIMER_PROF, &it, NULL));

		struct rlimit rl = {
			.rlim_cur = 1,
			.rlim_max = 1,
		};

		assert(!setrlimit(RLIMIT_CPU, &rl));

		for (;;)
			;

		return 0;
	}

Without this patch, the task is not killed as RLIMIT_CPU demands.

c5f8d99585 posixtimers, sched: Fix posix clock monotonicity
Impact: Regression fix (against clock_gettime() backwarding bug)

This patch re-introduces a couple of functions, task_sched_runtime
and thread_group_sched_runtime, which was once removed at the
time of 2.6.28-rc1.

These functions protect the sampling of thread/process clock with
rq lock.  This rq lock is required not to update rq->clock during
the sampling.

i.e.
  The clock_gettime() may return
   ((accounted runtime before update) + (delta after update))
  that is less than what it should be.

v2 -> v3:
	- Rename static helper function __task_delta_exec()
	  to do_task_delta_exec() since -tip tree already has
	  a __task_delta_exec() of different version.

v1 -> v2:
	- Revises comments of function and patch description.
	- Add note about accuracy of thread group's runtime.

37bebc70d7 posix timers: fix RLIMIT_CPU && fork()
See http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12911

copy_signal() copies signal->rlim, but RLIMIT_CPU is "lost". Because
posix_cpu_timers_init_group() sets cputime_expires.prof_exp = 0 and thus
fastpath_timer_check() returns false unless we have other cpu timers.

This is the minimal fix for 2.6.29 (tested) and 2.6.28. The patch is not
optimal, we need further cleanups here. With this patch update_rlimit_cpu()
is not really needed, but I don't think it should be removed.

The proper fix (I think) is:

	- set_process_cpu_timer() should just start the cputimer->running
	  logic (it does), no need to change cputime_expires.xxx_exp

	- posix_cpu_timers_init_group() should set ->running when needed

	- fastpath_timer_check() can check ->running instead of
	  task_cputime_zero(signal->cputime_expires)

3997ad317f timers: more consistently use clock vs timer
While reviewing the manpages, I noticed I'd missed some clock vs timer sites.

Make sure that all timer functions call cpu_timer_sample_group() and not
cpu_clock_sample_group(). This ensures that we enable the process wide timer
in time, and therefore pay the O(n) thread group cost from the syscall.

Not doing it here, will result in the first jiffy tick after setting the timer
doing this, resulting in a very expensive tick (but only once) and a delay in
actually starting the timer.

4cd4c1b40d timers: split process wide cpu clocks/timers
Change the process wide cpu timers/clocks so that we:

 1) don't mess up the kernel with too many threads,
 2) don't have a per-cpu allocation for each process,
 3) have no impact when not used.

In order to accomplish this we're going to split it into two parts:

 - clocks; which can take all the time they want since they run
           from user context -- ie. sys_clock_gettime(CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID)

 - timers; which need constant time sampling but since they're
           explicity used, the user can pay the overhead.

The clock readout will go back to a full sum of the thread group, while the
timers will run of a global 'clock' that only runs when needed, so only
programs that make use of the facility pay the price.

490dea45d0 itimers: remove the per-cpu-ish-ness
Either we bounce once cacheline per cpu per tick, yielding n^2 bounces
or we just bounce a single..

Also, using per-cpu allocations for the thread-groups complicates the
per-cpu allocator in that its currently aimed to be a fixed sized
allocator and the only possible extention to that would be vmap based,
which is seriously constrained on 32 bit archs.

So making the per-cpu memory requirement depend on the number of
processes is an issue.

Lastly, it didn't deal with cpu-hotplug, although admittedly that might
be fixable.

ce394471d1 thread_group_cputime: kill the bogus ->signal != NULL check
Impact: simplify the code

thread_group_cputime() is called by current when it must have the valid
->signal, or under ->siglock, or under tasklist_lock after the ->signal
check, or the caller is wait_task_zombie() which reaps the child. In any
case ->signal can't be NULL.

But the point of this patch is not optimization. If it is possible to call
thread_group_cputime() when ->signal == NULL we are doing something wrong,
and we should not mask the problem. thread_group_cputime() fills *times
and the caller will use it, if we silently use task_struct->*times* we
report the wrong values.

Impact: fix potential NULL dereference

Contrary to ad474caca3 changelog, other
acct_group_xxx() helpers can be called after exit_notify() by timer tick.
Thanks to Roland for pointing out this. Somehow I missed this simple fact
when I read the original patch, and I am afraid I confused Frank during
the discussion. Sorry.

Fortunately, these helpers work with current, we can check ->exit_state
to ensure that ->signal can't go away under us.

Also, add the comment and compiler barrier to account_group_exec_runtime(),
to make sure we load ->signal only once.

bb34d92f64 timers: fix itimer/many thread hang, v2
This is the second resubmission of the posix timer rework patch, posted
a few days ago.

This includes the changes from the previous resubmittion, which addressed
Oleg Nesterov's comments, removing the RCU stuff from the patch and
un-inlining the thread_group_cputime() function for SMP.

In addition, per Ingo Molnar it simplifies the UP code, consolidating much
of it with the SMP version and depending on lower-level SMP/UP handling to
take care of the differences.

It also cleans up some UP compile errors, moves the scheduler stats-related
macros into kernel/sched_stats.h, cleans up a merge error in
kernel/fork.c and has a few other minor fixes and cleanups as suggested
by Oleg and Ingo. Thanks for the review, guys.
