da5ef6bb96 cpuset: two minor code-cleanups
In cpuset_update_task_memory_state() local variable struct task_struct
*tsk = current;

And local variable tsk is used 14 times and statement task_cs(tsk) is used
twice in this function.  So using task_cs(tsk) instead of task_cs(current)
is better for readability.

And "(struct cgroup_scanner *)&scan" is not good for readability also.
(and "container_of" is used in cpuset_do_move_task(), not
"(cpuset_hotplug_scanner *)scan")

489a5393a2 cpuset: don't pass empty cpumasks to partition_sched_domains()
I create lots of empty cpusets(empty cpumasks) and turn off the
"sched_load_balance" in top cpuset.

I found that all these empty cpumasks are passed to
partition_sched_domains() in rebuild_sched_domains(), it's very
time-consuming for partition_sched_domains() and it's not need.

It also reduce memory consumed and some works in rebuild_sched_domains()
too.

f9b4fb8dab cpusets: update task's cpus_allowed and mems_allowed after CPU/NODE offline/online
The bug is that a task may run on the cpu/node which is not in its
cpuset.cpus/ cpuset.mems.

It can be reproduced by the following commands:
-----------------------------------
# mkdir /dev/cpuset
# mount -t cpuset xxx /dev/cpuset
# mkdir /dev/cpuset/0
# echo 0-1 > /dev/cpuset/0/cpus
# echo 0 > /dev/cpuset/0/mems
# echo $$ > /dev/cpuset/0/tasks
# echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
# echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
-----------------------------------

There is only CPU0 in cpuset.cpus, but the task in this cpuset runs on
both CPU0 and CPU1.

It is because the task's cpu_allowed didn't get updated after we did CPU
offline/online manipulation.  Similar for mem_allowed.

This patch fixes this bug expect for root cpuset.  Because there is a
problem about root cpuset, in that whether it is necessary to update all
the tasks in root cpuset or not after cpu/node offline/online.

If updating, some kernel threads which is bound into a specified cpu will
be unbound.

If not updating, there is a bug in root cpuset.  This bug is also caused
by offline/online manipulation.  For example, there is a dual-cpu machine.
 we create a sub cpuset in root cpuset and assign 1 to its cpus.  And then
we attach some tasks into this sub cpuset.  After this, we offline CPU1.
Now, the tasks in this new cpuset are moved into root cpuset automatically
because there is no cpu in sub cpuset.  Then we online CPU1, we find all
the tasks which doesn't belong to root cpuset originally just run on CPU0.

Maybe we need to add a flag in the task_struct to mark which task can't be
unbound?

e885dcde75 cgroup_clone: use pid of newly created task for new cgroup
cgroup_clone creates a new cgroup with the pid of the task.  This works
correctly for unshare, but for clone cgroup_clone is called from
copy_namespaces inside copy_process, which happens before the new pid is
created.  As a result, the new cgroup was created with current's pid.
This patch:

	1. Moves the call inside copy_process to after the new pid
	   is created
	2. Passes the struct pid into ns_cgroup_clone (as it is not
	   yet attached to the task)
	3. Passes a name from ns_cgroup_clone() into cgroup_clone()
	   so as to keep cgroup_clone() itself simpler
	4. Uses pid_vnr() to get the process id value, so that the
	   pid used to name the new cgroup is always the pid as it
	   would be known to the task which did the cloning or
	   unsharing.  I think that is the most intuitive thing to
	   do.  This way, task t1 does clone(CLONE_NEWPID) to get
	   t2, which does clone(CLONE_NEWPID) to get t3, then the
	   cgroup for t3 will be named for the pid by which t2 knows
	   t3.

(Thanks to Dan Smith for finding the main bug)

Changelog:
	June 11: Incorporate Paul Menage's feedback:  don't pass
	         NULL to ns_cgroup_clone from unshare, and reduce
		 patch size by using 'nodename' in cgroup_clone.

856c13aa1f cgroup files: convert res_counter_write() to be a cgroups write_string() handler
Currently res_counter_write() is a raw file handler even though it's
ultimately taking a number, since in some cases it wants to
pre-process the string when converting it to a number.

This patch converts res_counter_write() from a raw file handler to a
write_string() handler; this allows some of the boilerplate
copying/locking/checking to be removed, and simplies the cleanup path,
since these functions are now performed by the cgroups framework.

- pair cgroup_lock_live_group() with cgroup_unlock() in cgroup.c for

- make the return type of cgroup_lock_live_group() a bool

- use a #define'd constant for the local buffer size in read/write functions

e788e066c6 cgroup files: move the release_agent file to use typed handlers
Adds cgroup_release_agent_write() and cgroup_release_agent_show()
methods to handle writing/reading the path to a cgroup hierarchy's
release agent. As a result, cgroup_common_file_read() is now unnecessary.

As part of the change, a previously-tolerated race in
cgroup_release_agent() is avoided by copying the current
release_agent_path prior to calling call_usermode_helper().

db3b14978a cgroup files: add write_string cgroup control file method
This patch adds a write_string() method for cgroups control files. The
semantics are that a buffer is copied from userspace to kernelspace
and the handler function invoked on that buffer.  The buffer is
guaranteed to be nul-terminated, and no longer than max_write_len
(defaulting to 64 bytes if unspecified). Later patches will convert
existing raw file write handlers in control group subsystems to use
this method.

ef53d9c5e4 kprobes: improve kretprobe scalability with hashed locking
Currently list of kretprobe instances are stored in kretprobe object (as
used_instances,free_instances) and in kretprobe hash table.  We have one
global kretprobe lock to serialise the access to these lists.  This causes
only one kretprobe handler to execute at a time.  Hence affects system
performance, particularly on SMP systems and when return probe is set on
lot of functions (like on all systemcalls).

Solution proposed here gives fine-grain locks that performs better on SMP
system compared to present kretprobe implementation.

Solution:

 1) Instead of having one global lock to protect kretprobe instances
    present in kretprobe object and kretprobe hash table.  We will have
    two locks, one lock for protecting kretprobe hash table and another
    lock for kretporbe object.

 2) We hold lock present in kretprobe object while we modify kretprobe
    instance in kretprobe object and we hold per-hash-list lock while
    modifying kretprobe instances present in that hash list.  To prevent
    deadlock, we never grab a per-hash-list lock while holding a kretprobe
    lock.

 3) We can remove used_instances from struct kretprobe, as we can
    track used instances of kretprobe instances using kretprobe hash
    table.

Time duration for kernel compilation ("make -j 8") on a 8-way ppc64 system
with return probes set on all systemcalls looks like this.

ac331d158e call_usermodehelper(): increase reliability
Presently call_usermodehelper_setup() uses GFP_ATOMIC.  but it can return
NULL _very_ easily.

GFP_ATOMIC is needed only when we can't sleep.  and, GFP_KERNEL is robust
and better.

thus, I add gfp_mask argument to call_usermodehelper_setup().

So, its callers pass the gfp_t as below:

call_usermodehelper() and call_usermodehelper_keys():
	depend on 'wait' argument.
call_usermodehelper_pipe():
	always GFP_KERNEL because always run under process context.
orderly_poweroff():
	pass to GFP_ATOMIC because may run under interrupt context.

b03f6489f9 build kernel/profile.o only when requested
Build kernel/profile.o only if CONFIG_PROFILING is enabled.

This makes CONFIG_PROFILING=n kernels smaller.

As a bonus, some profile_tick() calls and one branch from schedule() are
now eliminated with CONFIG_PROFILING=n (but I doubt these are
measurable effects).

This patch changes the effects of CONFIG_PROFILING=n, but I don't think
having more than two choices would be the better choice.

This patch also adds the name of the first parameter to the prototypes
of profile_{hits,tick}() since I anyway had to add them for the dummy

be61a86d72 flag parameters: NONBLOCK in pipe
This patch adds O_NONBLOCK support to pipe2.  It is minimally more involved
than the patches for eventfd et.al but still trivial.  The interfaces of the
create_write_pipe and create_read_pipe helper functions were changed and the
one other caller as well.

x86-64 and in case the syscall numbers changed.

4006553b06 flag parameters: inotify_init
This patch introduces the new syscall inotify_init1 (note: the 1 stands for
the one parameter the syscall takes, as opposed to no parameter before).  The

patch CLOEXEC support is introduced.

aaca0bdca5 flag parameters: paccept
This patch is by far the most complex in the series.  It adds a new syscall
paccept.  This syscall differs from accept in that it adds (at the userlevel)
two additional parameters:

- a signal mask
- a flags value

The flags parameter can be used to set flag like SOCK_CLOEXEC.  This is
imlpemented here as well.  Some people argued that this is a property which
should be inherited from the file desriptor for the server but this is against
POSIX.  Additionally, we really want the signal mask parameter as well
(similar to pselect, ppoll, etc).  So an interface change in inevitable.

The flag value is the same as for socket and socketpair.  I think diverging
here will only create confusion.  Similar to the filesystem interfaces where
the use of the O_* constants differs, it is acceptable here.

The signal mask is handled as for pselect etc.  The mask is temporarily
installed for the thread and removed before the call returns.  I modeled the
code after pselect.  If there is a problem it's likely also in pselect.

For architectures which use socketcall I maintained this interface instead of
adding a system call.  The symmetry shouldn't be broken.

The following test must be adjusted for architectures other than x86 and
x86-64 and in case the syscall numbers changed.

82736f4d1d generic irqs: handle failure of irqchip->set_type in setup_irq
set_type returns an int indicating success or failure, but up to now
setup_irq ignores that.

In my case this resulted in a machine hang:

gpio-keys requested IRQF_TRIGGER_RISING | IRQF_TRIGGER_FALLING, but
arm/ns9xxx can only trigger on one direction so set_type didn't touch
the configuration which happens do default to a level sensitiveness and
returned -EINVAL.  setup_irq ignored that and unmasked the irq.  This
resulted in an endless triggering of the gpio-key interrupt service
routine which effectively killed the machine.

With this patch applied setup_irq propagates the error to the caller.

Note that before in the case

	chip && !chip->set_type && !chip->name

a NULL pointer was feed to printk.  This is fixed, too.

f0af566da6 pm: fix try_to_freeze_tasks()'s use of do_div()
Fix try_to_freeze_tasks()'s use of do_div() on an s64 by making
elapsed_csecs64 a u64 instead and dividing that.

Possibly this should be guarded lest the interval calculation turn up
negative, but the possible negativity of the result of the division is
cast away anyway.

This was introduced by patch 438e2ce68d.

- remove the member size in struct bm_block

It is not necessary for struct bm_block to have the number of bit chunks that
can be calculated by using end_pfn and start_pfn.

- use find_next_bit() for memory_bm_next_pfn

No need to invent the bitmap library only for the memory bitmap.

77437fd4e6 pm: boot time suspend selftest
Boot-time test for system suspend states (STR or standby).  The generic
RTC framework triggers wakeup alarms, which are used to exit those states.

  - Measures some aspects of suspend time ... this uses "jiffies" until
    someone converts it to use a timebase that works properly even while
    timer IRQs are disabled.

  - Triggered by a command line parameter.  By default nothing even
    vaguely troublesome will happen, but "test_suspend=mem" will give
    you a brief STR test during system boot.  (Or you may need to use
    "test_suspend=standby" instead, if your hardware needs that.)

This isn't without problems.  It fires early enough during boot that for
example both PCMCIA and MMC stacks have misbehaved.  The workaround in
those cases was to boot without such media cards inserted.

ab763c7112 security: filesystem capabilities refactor kernel code
To date, we've tried hard to confine filesystem support for capabilities
to the security modules.  This has left a lot of the code in
kernel/capability.c in a state where it looks like it supports something
that filesystem support for capabilities actually suppresses when the LSM
security/commmoncap.c code runs.  What is left is a lot of code that uses
sub-optimal locking in the main kernel

With this change we refactor the main kernel code and make it explicit
which locks are needed and that the only remaining kernel races in this
area are associated with non-filesystem capability code.

to supporting multiple hugetlbfs page sizes at once.

- Rather than a single hstate, we now have an array, with an iterator
- default_hstate continues to be the struct hstate which we use by default
- Add functions for architectures to register new hstates

a1e78772d7 hugetlb: reserve huge pages for reliable MAP_PRIVATE hugetlbfs mappings until fork()
This patch reserves huge pages at mmap() time for MAP_PRIVATE mappings in
a similar manner to the reservations taken for MAP_SHARED mappings.  The
reserve count is accounted both globally and on a per-VMA basis for
private mappings.  This guarantees that a process that successfully calls
mmap() will successfully fault all pages in the future unless fork() is
called.

The characteristics of private mappings of hugetlbfs files behaviour after
this patch are;

1. The process calling mmap() is guaranteed to succeed all future faults until
   it forks().
2. On fork(), the parent may die due to SIGKILL on writes to the private
   mapping if enough pages are not available for the COW. For reasonably
   reliable behaviour in the face of a small huge page pool, children of
   hugepage-aware processes should not reference the mappings; such as
   might occur when fork()ing to exec().
3. On fork(), the child VMAs inherit no reserves. Reads on pages already
   faulted by the parent will succeed. Successful writes will depend on enough
   huge pages being free in the pool.
4. Quotas of the hugetlbfs mount are checked at reserve time for the mapper
   and at fault time otherwise.

Before this patch, all reads or writes in the child potentially needs page
allocations that can later lead to the death of the parent.  This applies
to reads and writes of uninstantiated pages as well as COW.  After the
patch it is only a write to an instantiated page that causes problems.

3a642e99ba modules: Take a shortcut for checking if an address is in a module
This patch keeps track of the boundaries of module allocation, in
order to speed up module_text_address().

Inspired by Arjan's version, which required arch-specific defines:

	Various pieces of the kernel (lockdep, latencytop, etc) tend
	to store backtraces, sometimes at a relatively high
	frequency. In itself this isn't a big performance deal (after
	all you're using diagnostics features), but there have been
	some complaints from people who have over 100 modules loaded
	that this is a tad too slow.

	This is due to the new backtracer code which looks at every
	slot on the stack to see if it's a kernel/module text address,
	so that's 1024 slots.  1024 times 100 modules... that's a lot
	of list walking.

We cannot possibly have a module where 32 bits won't

For one, module loading checks module size for sanity

Right, I never liked having to fiddle with those TIF flags. Initially I
needed it because the hrtimer base lock could not nest in the rq lock.
That however is fixed these days.

Currently the only reason left to fiddle with the TIF flags is remote
wakeups. We cannot program a remote cpu's hrtimer. I've been thinking
about using the new and improved IPI function call stuff to implement
hrtimer_start_on().

However that does require that smp_call_function_single(.wait=0) works
from interrupt context - /me looks at the latest series from Jens - Yes
that does seem to be supported, good.

Here's a stab at cleaning this stuff up ...

Mihai reported test success as well.

65c0118453 cpumask: Replace cpumask_of_cpu with cpumask_of_cpu_ptr
* This patch replaces the dangerous lvalue version of cpumask_of_cpu
    with new cpumask_of_cpu_ptr macros.  These are patterned after the
    node_to_cpumask_ptr macros.

    In general terms, if there is a cpumask_of_cpu_map[] then a pointer to
    the cpumask_of_cpu_map[cpu] entry is used.  The cpumask_of_cpu_map
    is provided when there is a large NR_CPUS count, reducing
    greatly the amount of code generated and stack space used for
    cpumask_of_cpu().  The pointer to the cpumask_t value is needed for
    calling set_cpus_allowed_ptr() to reduce the amount of stack space
    needed to pass the cpumask_t value.

    If there isn't a cpumask_of_cpu_map[], then a temporary variable is
    declared and filled in with value from cpumask_of_cpu(cpu) as well as
    a pointer variable pointing to this temporary variable.  Afterwards,
    the pointer is used to reference the cpumask value.  The compiler
    will optimize out the extra dereference through the pointer as well
    as the stack space used for the pointer, resulting in identical code.

    A good example of the orthogonal usages is in net/sunrpc/svc.c:

	case SVC_POOL_PERCPU:
	{
		unsigned int cpu = m->pool_to[pidx];
		cpumask_of_cpu_ptr(cpumask, cpu);

		*oldmask = current->cpus_allowed;
		set_cpus_allowed_ptr(current, cpumask);
		return 1;
	}
	case SVC_POOL_PERNODE:
	{
		unsigned int node = m->pool_to[pidx];
		node_to_cpumask_ptr(nodecpumask, node);

		*oldmask = current->cpus_allowed;
		set_cpus_allowed_ptr(current, nodecpumask);
		return 1;
	}

1e01cb0c6f ftrace: only trace preempt off with preempt tracer
When PREEMPT_TRACER and IRQSOFF_TRACER are both configured and irqsoff
tracer is running, the preempt_off sections might also be traced.

Thanks to Andrew Morton for pointing out my mistake of spin_lock disabling
interrupts while he was reviewing ftrace.txt. Seems that my example I used

b8f8c3cf0a nohz: prevent tick stop outside of the idle loop
Jack Ren and Eric Miao tracked down the following long standing
problem in the NOHZ code:

	scheduler switch to idle task
	enable interrupts

Window starts here

	----> interrupt happens (does not set NEED_RESCHED)
	      	irq_exit() stops the tick

	----> interrupt happens (does set NEED_RESCHED)

	return from schedule()
	
	cpu_idle(): preempt_disable();

Window ends here

The interrupts can happen at any point inside the race window. The
first interrupt stops the tick, the second one causes the scheduler to
rerun and switch away from idle again and we end up with the tick
disabled.

The fact that it needs two interrupts where the first one does not set
NEED_RESCHED and the second one does made the bug obscure and extremly
hard to reproduce and analyse. Kudos to Jack and Eric.

Solution: Limit the NOHZ functionality to the idle loop to make sure
that we can not run into such a situation ever again.

cpu_idle()
{
	preempt_disable();

	while(1) {
		 tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick(1); <- tell NOHZ code that we
		 			          are in the idle loop

		 while (!need_resched())
		       halt();

		 tick_nohz_restart_sched_tick(); <- disables NOHZ mode
		 preempt_enable_no_resched();
		 schedule();
		 preempt_disable();
	}
}

In hindsight we should have done this forever, but ... 

/me grabs a large brown paperbag.

Things get weird between lockdep and ftrace because ftrace can be called
within lockdep internal code (via the mcount pointer) and lockdep can be
called with ftrace (via spin_locks).

39b0fad712 cpu hotplug: Make cpu_active_map synchronization dependency clear
This goes on top of the cpu_active_map (take 2) patch.

Currently we depend on the stop_machine to provide nescessesary
synchronization for the cpu_active_map updates.
As Dmitry Adamushko pointed this is fragile and is not much clearer
than the previous scheme. In other words we do not want to depend on
the internal stop machine operation here.
So make the synchronization rules clear by doing synchronize_sched()
after clearing out cpu active bit.

Tested on quad-Core2 with:

   while true; do
      for i in 1 2 3; do
        echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu$i/online
      done
      for i in 1 2 3; do
        echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu$i/online
      done
   done
and
   stress -c 200

No lockdep, preempt or other complaints.

e761b77252 cpu hotplug, sched: Introduce cpu_active_map and redo sched domain managment (take 2)
This is based on Linus' idea of creating cpu_active_map that prevents
scheduler load balancer from migrating tasks to the cpu that is going
down.

It allows us to simplify domain management code and avoid unecessary
domain rebuilds during cpu hotplug event handling.

Please ignore the cpusets part for now. It needs some more work in order
to avoid crazy lock nesting. Although I did simplfy and unify domain
reinitialization logic. We now simply call partition_sched_domains() in
all the cases. This means that we're using exact same code paths as in
cpusets case and hence the test below cover cpusets too.
Cpuset changes to make rebuild_sched_domains() callable from various
contexts are in the separate patch (right next after this one).

This not only boots but also easily handles
	while true; do make clean; make -j 8; done
and
	while true; do on-off-cpu 1; done
at the same time.
(on-off-cpu 1 simple does echo 0/1 > /sys/.../cpu1/online thing).

Suprisingly the box (dual-core Core2) is quite usable. In fact I'm typing
this on right now in gnome-terminal and things are moving just fine.

Also this is running with most of the debug features enabled (lockdep,
mutex, etc) no BUG_ONs or lockdep complaints so far.

I believe I addressed all of the Dmitry's comments for original Linus'
version. I changed both fair and rt balancer to mask out non-active cpus.
And replaced cpu_is_offline() with !cpu_active() in the main scheduler
code where it made sense (to me).

(2) if current is to be preempted, then make sure "p" will be picked

i.e. move task's group at the head of its list as well.

666f164f4f fix dangling zombie when new parent ignores children
This fixes an arcane bug that we think was a regression introduced
by commit b2b2cbc4b2.  When a parent
ignores SIGCHLD (or uses SA_NOCLDWAIT), its children would self-reap
but they don't if it's using ptrace on them.  When the parent thread
later exits and ceases to ptrace a child but leaves other live
threads in the parent's thread group, any zombie children are left
dangling.  The fix makes them self-reap then, as they would have
done earlier if ptrace had not been in use.

14dd0b8141 do_wait: return security_task_wait() error code in place of -ECHILD
This reverts the effect of commit f2cc3eb133
"do_wait: fix security checks".  That change reverted the effect of commit
7324328446.  The rationale for the original
commit still stands.  The inconsistent treatment of children hidden by
ptrace was an unintended omission in the original change and in no way
invalidates its purpose.

This makes do_wait return the error returned by security_task_wait()
(usually -EACCES) in place of -ECHILD when there are some children the
caller would be able to wait for if not for the permission failure.  A
permission error will give the user a clue to look for security policy
problems, rather than for mysterious wait bugs.

f470021adb ptrace children revamp
ptrace no longer fiddles with the children/sibling links, and the
old ptrace_children list is gone.  Now ptrace, whether of one's own
children or another's via PTRACE_ATTACH, just uses the new ptraced
list instead.

There should be no user-visible difference that matters.  The only
change is the order in which do_wait() sees multiple stopped
children and stopped ptrace attachees.  Since wait_task_stopped()
was changed earlier so it no longer reorders the children list, we
already know this won't cause any new problems.

25f2f3daad snapshot: Use pm_mutex for mutual exclusion
We can avoid taking the BKL in snapshot_ioctl() if pm_mutex is used to prevent
the ioctls from being executed concurrently.

In addition, although it is only possible to open /dev/snapshot once, the task
which has done that may spawn a child that will inherit the open descriptor,
so in theory they can call snapshot_write(), snapshot_read() and
snapshot_release() concurrently.  pm_mutex can also be used for mutual
exclusion in such cases.

ebb12db51f Freezer: Introduce PF_FREEZER_NOSIG
The freezer currently attempts to distinguish kernel threads from
user space tasks by checking if their mm pointer is unset and it
does not send fake signals to kernel threads.  However, there are
kernel threads, mostly related to networking, that behave like
user space tasks and may want to be sent a fake signal to be frozen.

Introduce the new process flag PF_FREEZER_NOSIG that will be set
by default for all kernel threads and make the freezer only send
fake signals to the tasks having PF_FREEZER_NOSIG unset.  Provide
the set_freezable_with_signal() function to be called by the kernel
threads that want to be sent a fake signal for freezing.

This patch should not change the freezer's observable behavior.

b62b8ef906 force offline the processor during hot-removal
The ACPI device node for the cpu has already been unregistered
when acpi_processor_handle_eject is called.
Thus we should offline the cpu and continue, rather than a failure here.

63cf13b77a generic ipi function calls: wait on alloc failure fallback
When a GFP_ATOMIC allocation fails, it falls back to allocating the
data on the stack and converting it to a waiting call.

Make sure we actually wait in this case.

006ebb40d3 Security: split proc ptrace checking into read vs. attach
Enable security modules to distinguish reading of process state via
proc from full ptrace access by renaming ptrace_may_attach to
ptrace_may_access and adding a mode argument indicating whether only
read access or full attach access is requested.  This allows security
modules to permit access to reading process state without granting
full ptrace access.  The base DAC/capability checking remains unchanged.

Read access to /proc/pid/mem continues to apply a full ptrace attach
check since check_mem_permission() already requires the current task
to already be ptracing the target.  The other ptrace checks within
proc for elements like environ, maps, and fds are changed to pass the
read mode instead of attach.

In the SELinux case, we model such reading of process state as a
reading of a proc file labeled with the target process' label.  This
enables SELinux policy to permit such reading of process state without
permitting control or manipulation of the target process, as there are
a number of cases where programs probe for such information via proc
but do not need to be able to control the target (e.g. procps,
lsof, PolicyKit, ConsoleKit).  At present we have to choose between
allowing full ptrace in policy (more permissive than required/desired)
or breaking functionality (or in some cases just silencing the denials
via dontaudit rules but this can hide genuine attacks).

This version of the patch incorporates comments from Casey Schaufler
(change/replace existing ptrace_may_attach interface, pass access
mode), and Chris Wright (provide greater consistency in the checking).

Note that like their predecessors __ptrace_may_attach and
ptrace_may_attach, the __ptrace_may_access and ptrace_may_access
interfaces use different return value conventions from each other (0
or -errno vs. 1 or 0).  I retained this difference to avoid any
changes to the caller logic but made the difference clearer by
changing the latter interface to return a bool rather than an int and
by adding a comment about it to ptrace.h for any future callers.

199a952876 rcu classic: update qlen when cpu offline
When callbacks are moved from offline cpu to this cpu,
the qlen field of this rdp should be updated.

[ Paul E. McKenney: ]

The effect of this bug would be for force_quiescent_state() to be invoked
when it should not and vice versa -- wasting cycles in the first case
and letting RCU callbacks remain piled up in the second case.  The bug
is thus "benign" in that it does not result in premature grace-period
termination, but should of course be fixed nonetheless.

Preemption is disabled by the caller's get_cpu_var(), so we are guaranteed
to remain on the same CPU, as required.  The local_irq_disable() is indeed
needed, otherwise, an interrupt might invoke call_rcu() or call_rcu_bh(),
which could cause that interrupt's increment of ->qlen to be lost.

3e84050c81 cpusets, hotplug, scheduler: fix scheduler domain breakage
Commit f18f982ab ("sched: CPU hotplug events must not destroy scheduler
domains created by the cpusets") introduced a hotplug-related problem as
described below:

Upon CPU_DOWN_PREPARE,

  update_sched_domains() -> detach_destroy_domains(&cpu_online_map)

does the following:

/*
 * Force a reinitialization of the sched domains hierarchy. The domains
 * and groups cannot be updated in place without racing with the balancing
 * code, so we temporarily attach all running cpus to the NULL domain
 * which will prevent rebalancing while the sched domains are recalculated.
 */

The sched-domains should be rebuilt when a CPU_DOWN ops. has been
completed, effectively either upon CPU_DEAD{_FROZEN} (upon success) or
CPU_DOWN_FAILED{_FROZEN} (upon failure -- restore the things to their
initial state). That's what update_sched_domains() also does but only
for !CPUSETS case.

With f18f982ab, sched-domains' reinitialization is delegated to
CPUSETS code:

cpuset_handle_cpuhp() -> common_cpu_mem_hotplug_unplug() ->
rebuild_sched_domains()

Being called for CPU_UP_PREPARE and if its callback is called after
update_sched_domains()), it just negates all the work done by
update_sched_domains() -- i.e. a soon-to-be-offline cpu is included in
the sched-domains and that makes it visible for the load-balancer
while the CPU_DOWN ops. is in progress.

__migrate_live_tasks() moves the tasks off a 'dead' cpu (it's already
"offline" when this function is called).

try_to_wake_up() is called for one of these tasks from another CPU ->
the load-balancer (wake_idle()) picks up a "dead" CPU and places the
task on it. Then e.g. BUG_ON(rq->nr_running) detects this a bit later
-> oops.

c300ba2528 sched_clock: and multiplier for TSC to gtod drift
The sched_clock code currently tries to keep all CPU clocks of all CPUS
somewhat in sync. At every clock tick it records the gtod clock and
uses that and jiffies and the TSC to calculate a CPU clock that tries to
stay in sync with all the other CPUs.

ftrace depends heavily on this timer and it detects when this timer
"jumps".  One problem is that the TSC and the gtod also drift.
When the TSC is 0.1% faster or slower than the gtod it is very noticeable
in ftrace. To help compensate for this, I've added a multiplier that
tries to keep the CPU clock updating at the same rate as the gtod.

I've tried various ways to get it to be in sync and this ended up being
the most reliable. At every scheduler tick we calculate the new multiplier:

  multi = delta_gtod / delta_TSC

This means we perform a 64 bit divide at the tick (once a HZ). A shift
is used to handle the accuracy.

Other methods that failed due to dynamic HZ are:

(not used)  multi += (gtod - tsc) / delta_gtod
(not used)  multi += (gtod - (last_tsc + delta_tsc)) / delta_gtod

as well as other variants.

This code still allows for a slight drift between TSC and gtod, but
it keeps the damage down to a minimum.

a83bc47c33 sched_clock: record TSC after gtod
To read the gtod we need to grab the xtime lock for read. Reading the gtod
before the TSC can cause a bigger gab if the xtime lock is contended.

This patch simply reverses the order to read the TSC after the gtod.
The locking in the reading of the gtod handles any barriers one might
think is needed.

c0c87734f1 sched_clock: only update deltas with local reads.

2b8a0cf489 sched_clock: fix calculation of other CPU
The algorithm to calculate the 'now' of another CPU is not correct.
At each scheduler tick, each CPU records the last sched_clock and
gtod (tick_raw and tick_gtod respectively). If the TSC is somewhat the
same in speed between two clocks the algorithm would be:

  tick_gtod1 + (now1 - tick_raw1) = tick_gtod2 + (now2 - tick_raw2)

To calculate now2 we would have:

  now2 = (tick_gtod1 - tick_gtod2) + (tick_raw2 - tick_raw1) + now1

Currently the algorithm is:

  now2 = (tick_gtod1 - tick_gtod2) + (tick_raw1 - tick_raw2) + now1

This solves most of the rest of the issues I've had with timestamps in
ftace.

af52a90a14 sched_clock: stop maximum check on NO HZ
Working with ftrace I would get large jumps of 11 millisecs or more with
the clock tracer. This killed the latencing timings of ftrace and also
caused the irqoff self tests to fail.

What was happening is with NO_HZ the idle would stop the jiffy counter and
before the jiffy counter was updated the sched_clock would have a bad
delta jiffies to compare with the gtod with the maximum.

The jiffies would stop and the last sched_tick would record the last gtod.
On wakeup, the sched clock update would compare the gtod + delta jiffies
(which would be zero) and compare it to the TSC. The TSC would have
correctly (with a stable TSC) moved forward several jiffies. But because the
jiffies has not been updated yet the clock would be prevented from moving
forward because it would appear that the TSC jumped too far ahead.

The clock would then virtually stop, until the jiffies are updated. Then
the next sched clock update would see that the clock was very much behind
since the delta jiffies is now correct. This would then jump the clock
forward by several jiffies.

This caused ftrace to report several milliseconds of interrupts off
latency at every resume from NO_HZ idle.

This patch adds hooks into the nohz code to disable the checking of the
maximum clock update when nohz is in effect. It resumes the max check
when nohz has updated the jiffies again.

f7cce27f56 sched_clock: widen the max and min time
With keeping the max and min sched time within one jiffy of the gtod clock
was too tight. Just before a schedule tick the max could easily be hit, as
well as just after a schedule_tick the min could be hit. This caused the
clock to jump around by a jiffy.

This patch widens the minimum to
   last gtod + (delta_jiffies ? delta_jiffies - 1 : 0) * TICK_NSECS

and the maximum to
    last gtod + (2 + delta_jiffies) * TICK_NSECS

This keeps the minum to gtod or if one jiffy less than delta jiffies
and the maxim 2 jiffies ahead of gtod. This may cause unstable TSCs to be
a bit more sporadic, but it helps keep a clock with a stable TSC working well.

62c43dd986 sched_clock: record from last tick
The sched_clock code tries to keep within the gtod time by one tick (jiffy).
The current code mistakenly keeps track of the delta jiffies between
updates of the clock, where the the delta is used to compare with the
number of jiffies that have past since an update of the gtod. The gtod is
updated at each schedule tick not each sched_clock update. After one
jiffy passes the clock is updated fine. But the delta is taken from the
last update so if the next update happens before the next tick the delta
jiffies used will be incorrect.

This patch changes the code to check the delta of jiffies between ticks
and not updates to match the comparison of the updates with the gtod.
