Steven Rostedt 98db8df777 ring-buffer: prevent false positive warning
Impact: eliminate false WARN_ON message

If an interrupt goes off after the setting of the local variable
tail_page and before incrementing the write index of that page,
the interrupt could push the commit forward to the next page.

Later a check is made to see if interrupts pushed the buffer around
the entire ring buffer by comparing the next page to the last commited
page. This can produce a false positive if the interrupt had pushed
the commit page forward as stated above.

Thanks to Jiaying Zhang for finding this race.

Impact: fix stuck trace-buffers

If an interrupt comes in during the rb_set_commit_to_write and
pushes the tail page forward just at the right time, the commit
updates will miss the adding of the interrupt data. This will
cause the commit pointer to cease from moving forward.

Thomas Gleixner 3d44cc3e01 Null pointer deref with hrtimer_try_to_cancel()
Impact: Prevent kernel crash with posix timer clockid CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW

commit 2d42244ae7 (clocksource:
introduce CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW) introduced a new clockid, which is only
available to read out the raw not NTP adjusted system time.

The above commit did not prevent that a posix timer can be created
with that clockid. The timer_create() syscall succeeds and initializes
the timer to a non existing hrtimer base. When the timer is deleted
either by timer_delete() or by the exit() cleanup the kernel crashes.

Prevent the creation of timers for CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW by setting the
posix clock function to no_timer_create which returns an error code.

Jan Beulich 9bb482476c allow stripping of generated symbols under CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ALL
Building upon parts of the module stripping patch, this patch
introduces similar stripping for vmlinux when CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ALL=y.
Using CONFIG_KALLSYMS_STRIP_GENERATED reduces the overhead of
CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ALL from 245k/310k to 65k/80k for the (i386/x86-64)
kernels I tested with.

The patch also does away with the need to special case the kallsyms-
internal symbols by making them available even in the first linking
stage.

While it is a generated file, the patch includes the changes to
scripts/genksyms/keywords.c_shipped, as I'm unsure what the procedure
here is.

Ken Chen 9c2c48020e schedstat: consolidate per-task cpu runtime stats
Impact: simplify code

When we turn on CONFIG_SCHEDSTATS, per-task cpu runtime is accumulated
twice. Once in task->se.sum_exec_runtime and once in sched_info.cpu_time.
These two stats are exactly the same.

Given that task->se.sum_exec_runtime is always accumulated by the core
scheduler, sched_info can reuse that data instead of duplicate the accounting.

Thomas Gleixner 3d9101e925 trace: fix task state printout
Impact: fix occasionally incorrect trace output

The tracing code has interesting varieties of printing out task state.

Unfortunalely only one of the instances is correct as it copies the
code from sched.c:sched_show_task(). The others are plain wrong as
they treatthe bitfield as an integer offset into the character
array. Also the size check of the character array is wrong as it
includes the trailing \0.

Use a common state decoder inline which does the Right Thing.

Steven Rostedt ea3a6d6d60 ftrace: add not to regex on filtering functions
Impact: enhancement

Ingo Molnar has asked about a way to remove items from the filter
lists. Currently, you can only add or replace items. The way
items are added to the list is through opening one of the list
files (set_ftrace_filter or set_ftrace_notrace) via append.
If the file is opened for truncate, the list is cleared.

  echo spin_lock > /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter

The above will replace the list with only spin_lock

  echo spin_lock >> /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter

The above will add spin_lock to the list.

Now this patch adds:

  echo '!spin_lock' >> /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter

This will remove spin_lock from the list.

The limited glob features of these lists also can be notted.

  echo '!spin_*' >> /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter

This will remove all functions that start with 'spin_'

Note:

  echo '!spin_*' > /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter

will simply clear out the list (notice the '>' instead of '>>')

Steven Rostedt f38f1d2aa5 trace: add a way to enable or disable the stack tracer
Impact: enhancement to stack tracer

The stack tracer currently is either on when configured in or
off when it is not. It can not be disabled when it is configured on.
(besides disabling the function tracer that it uses)

This patch adds a way to enable or disable the stack tracer at
run time. It defaults off on bootup, but a kernel parameter 'stacktrace'
has been added to enable it on bootup.

A new sysctl has been added "kernel.stack_tracer_enabled" to let
the user enable or disable the stack tracer at run time.

Frederic Weisbecker 66896a85cf tracing/ftrace: add the printk-msg-only option
Impact: display ftrace_printk messages "as is"

By default, ftrace_printk() messages find their output with some other
informations like pid, caller, ...
Sometimes a developer just want to have the ftrace_printk left "as is", without
other information.

This is done by providing a default-off option called printk-msg-only.
To enable it, just do `echo printk-msg-only > /debugfs/tracing/trace_options`

Before the patch:

           <...>-2739  [000]   145.692153: __might_sleep: I'm an ftrace_printk msg in __might_sleep
           <...>-2739  [000]   145.692155: __might_sleep: I'm another ftrace_printk msg in __might_sleep

After the patch and the printk-msg-only option enabled:

I'm an ftrace_printk msg in __might_sleep
I'm another ftrace_printk msg in __might_sleep

Paul Menage 307257cf47 cgroups: fix a race between rmdir and remount
When a cgroup is removed, it's unlinked from its parent's children list,
but not actually freed until the last dentry on it is released (at which
point cgrp->root->number_of_cgroups is decremented).

Currently rebind_subsystems checks for the top cgroup's child list being
empty in order to rebind subsystems into or out of a hierarchy - this can
result in the set of subsystems bound to a hierarchy being
removed-but-not-freed cgroup.

The simplest fix for this is to forbid remounts that change the set of
subsystems on a hierarchy that has removed-but-not-freed cgroups.  This
bug can be reproduced via:

mkdir /mnt/cg
mount -t cgroup -o ns,freezer cgroup /mnt/cg
mkdir /mnt/cg/foo
sleep 1h < /mnt/cg/foo &
rmdir /mnt/cg/foo
mount -t cgroup -o remount,ns,devices,freezer cgroup /mnt/cg
kill $!

Though the above will cause oops in -mm only but not mainline, but the bug
can cause memory leak in mainline (and even oops)

Not much point with gentle transition here: the struct irq_chip's
setaffinity method signature needs to change.

Fortunately, not widely used code, but hits a few architectures.

Note: In irq_select_affinity() I save a temporary in by mangling
irq_desc[irq].affinity directly.  Ingo, does this break anything?

(Folded in fix from KOSAKI Motohiro)

Rusty Russell 29c0177e6a cpumask: change cpumask_scnprintf, cpumask_parse_user, cpulist_parse, and cpulist_scnprintf to take pointers.
Impact: change calling convention of existing cpumask APIs

Most cpumask functions started with cpus_: these have been replaced by
cpumask_ ones which take struct cpumask pointers as expected.

These four functions don't have good replacement names; fortunately
they're rarely used, so we just change them over.

Rusty Russell 98a79d6a50 cpumask: centralize cpu_online_map and cpu_possible_map
Impact: cleanup

Each SMP arch defines these themselves.  Move them to a central
location.

Twists:
1) Some archs (m32, parisc, s390) set possible_map to all 1, so we add a
   CONFIG_INIT_ALL_POSSIBLE for this rather than break them.

2) mips and sparc32 '#define cpu_possible_map phys_cpu_present_map'.
   Those archs simply have phys_cpu_present_map replaced everywhere.

3) Alpha defined cpu_possible_map to cpu_present_map; this is tricky
   so I just manipulate them both in sync.

4) IA64, cris and m32r have gratuitous 'extern cpumask_t cpu_possible_map'
   declarations.

Heiko Carstens d65bd5ecb2 sched: add missing arch_update_cpu_topology() call
arch_reinit_sched_domains() used to call arch_update_cpu_topology()
via arch_init_sched_domains(). This call got lost with
e761b77252 ("cpu hotplug, sched: Introduce
cpu_active_map and redo sched domain managment (take 2)".

So we might end up with outdated and missing cpus in the cpu core
maps (architecture used to call arch_reinit_sched_domains if cpu
topology changed).

This adds a call to arch_update_cpu_topology in partition_sched_domains
which gets called whenever scheduling domains get updated. Which is
what is supposed to happen when cpu topology changes.

Hugh Dickins b88ed20594 fix mapping_writably_mapped()
Lee Schermerhorn noticed yesterday that I broke the mapping_writably_mapped
test in 2.6.7!  Bad bad bug, good good find.

The i_mmap_writable count must be incremented for VM_SHARED (just as
i_writecount is for VM_DENYWRITE, but while holding the i_mmap_lock)
when dup_mmap() copies the vma for fork: it has its own more optimal
version of __vma_link_file(), and I missed this out.  So the count
was later going down to 0 (dangerous) when one end unmapped, then
wrapping negative (inefficient) when the other end unmapped.

The only impact on x86 would have been that setting a mandatory lock on
a file which has at some time been opened O_RDWR and mapped MAP_SHARED
(but not necessarily PROT_WRITE) across a fork, might fail with -EAGAIN
when it should succeed, or succeed when it should fail.

But those architectures which rely on flush_dcache_page() to flush
userspace modifications back into the page before the kernel reads it,
may in some cases have skipped the flush after such a fork - though any
repetitive test will soon wrap the count negative, in which case it will
flush_dcache_page() unnecessarily.

Fix would be a two-liner, but mapping variable added, and comment moved.

Hugh Dickins 9c24624727 KSYM_SYMBOL_LEN fixes
Miles Lane tailing /sys files hit a BUG which Pekka Enberg has tracked
to my 966c8c12dc sprint_symbol(): use
less stack exposing a bug in slub's list_locations() -
kallsyms_lookup() writes a 0 to namebuf[KSYM_NAME_LEN-1], but that was
beyond the end of page provided.

The 100 slop which list_locations() allows at end of page looks roughly
enough for all the other stuff it might print after the symbol before
it checks again: break out KSYM_SYMBOL_LEN earlier than before.

Latencytop and ftrace and are using KSYM_NAME_LEN buffers where they
need KSYM_SYMBOL_LEN buffers, and vmallocinfo a 2*KSYM_NAME_LEN buffer
where it wants a KSYM_SYMBOL_LEN buffer: fix those before anyone copies
them.
