Cliff Wickman 31a7df01fd cgroups: mechanism to process each task in a cgroup
Provide cgroup_scan_tasks(), which iterates through every task in a cgroup,
calling a test function and a process function for each.  And call the process
function without holding the css_set_lock lock.

The idea is David Rientjes', predicting that such a function will make it much
easier in the future to extend things that require access to each task in a
cgroup without holding the lock,

KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki 4fca88c87b memory cgroup enhancements: add- pre_destroy() handler
Add a handler "pre_destroy" to cgroup_subsys.  It is called before
cgroup_rmdir() checks all subsys's refcnt.

I think this is useful for subsys which have some extra refs even if there
are no tasks in cgroup.  By adding pre_destroy(), the kernel keeps the rule
"destroy() against subsystem is called only when refcnt=0." and allows css
ref to be used by other objects than tasks.

David Rientjes fef1bdd68c oom: add sysctl to enable task memory dump
Adds a new sysctl, 'oom_dump_tasks', that enables the kernel to produce a
dump of all system tasks (excluding kernel threads) when performing an
OOM-killing.  Information includes pid, uid, tgid, vm size, rss, cpu,
oom_adj score, and name.

This is helpful for determining why there was an OOM condition and which
rogue task caused it.

It is configurable so that large systems, such as those with several
thousand tasks, do not incur a performance penalty associated with dumping
data they may not desire.

If an OOM was triggered as a result of a memory controller, the tasklist
shall be filtered to exclude tasks that are not a member of the same
cgroup.

Paul Menage 8dc4f3e17d cgroups: move cgroups destroy() callbacks to cgroup_diput()
Move the calls to the cgroup subsystem destroy() methods from
cgroup_rmdir() to cgroup_diput().  This allows control file reads and
writes to access their subsystem state without having to be concerned with
locking against cgroup destruction - the control file dentry will keep the
cgroup and its subsystem state objects alive until the file is closed.

The documentation is updated to reflect the changed semantics of destroy();
additionally the locking comments for destroy() and some other methods were
clarified and decrustified.

David Fries 6ffc787a44 system timer: fix crash in <100Hz system timer
The kernel has a divide by zero crash when trying to run the system timer
less than 100Hz.  The problem is x/(HZ/USER_HZ) and related.  Now
x*(USER_HZ/HZ) will be used if HZ<USER_HZ.

I'm running the Linux kernel under qemu and went to run a slower system
timer to take less CPU (and battery) on the host.  I found that the kernel
paniced under emulation because of a divide by zero in three places.  Here
is the patch.  The base git was updated today 01-05-2008.  I went for a
20Hz system time by adding config HZ_20 etc to kernel/Kconfig.hz.  With
this patch I verified the system timer by looking at /proc/interrupts.

Eric Dumazet 1bf47346d7 kernel/sys.c: get rid of expensive divides in groups_sort()
groups_sort() can be quite long if user loads a large gid table.

This is because GROUP_AT(group_info, some_integer) uses an integer divide.
So having to do XXX thousand divides during one syscall can lead to very
high latencies.  (NGROUPS_MAX=65536)

In the past (25 Mar 2006), an analog problem was found in groups_search()
(commit d74beb9f33 ) and at that time I
changed some variables to unsigned int.

I believe that a more generic fix is to make sure NGROUPS_PER_BLOCK is
unsigned.

Eric Dumazet 9cfe015aa4 get rid of NR_OPEN and introduce a sysctl_nr_open
NR_OPEN (historically set to 1024*1024) actually forbids processes to open
more than 1024*1024 handles.

Unfortunatly some production servers hit the not so 'ridiculously high
value' of 1024*1024 file descriptors per process.

Changing NR_OPEN is not considered safe because of vmalloc space potential
exhaust.

This patch introduces a new sysctl (/proc/sys/fs/nr_open) wich defaults to
1024*1024, so that admins can decide to change this limit if their workload
needs it.

Miao Xie 5e2cb1018a time: fix sysfs_show_{available,current}_clocksources() buffer overflow problem
I found that there is a buffer overflow problem in the following code.

Version:	2.6.24-rc2,
File:		kernel/time/clocksource.c:417-432
--------------------------------------------------------------------
static ssize_t
sysfs_show_available_clocksources(struct sys_device *dev, char *buf)
{
	struct clocksource *src;
	char *curr = buf;

	spin_lock_irq(&clocksource_lock);
	list_for_each_entry(src, &clocksource_list, list) {
		curr += sprintf(curr, "%s ", src->name);
	}
	spin_unlock_irq(&clocksource_lock);

	curr += sprintf(curr, "\n");

	return curr - buf;
}
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

sysfs_show_current_clocksources() also has the same problem though in practice
the size of current clocksource's name won't exceed PAGE_SIZE.

I fix the bug by using snprintf according to the specification of the kernel
(Version:2.6.24-rc2,File:Documentation/filesystems/sysfs.txt)

Fix sysfs_show_available_clocksources() and sysfs_show_current_clocksources()
buffer overflow problem with snprintf().

Robin Getz a3b81113fb remove support for un-needed _extratext section
When passing a zero address to kallsyms_lookup(), the kernel thought it was
a valid kernel address, even if it is not.  This is because is_ksym_addr()
called is_kernel_extratext() and checked against labels that don't exist on
many archs (which default as zero).  Since PPC was the only kernel which
defines _extra_text, (in 2005), and no longer needs it, this patch removes
_extra_text support.

Oleg Nesterov d9ae90ac4b use __set_task_state() for TRACED/STOPPED tasks
1. It is much easier to grep for ->state change if __set_task_state() is used
   instead of the direct assignment.

2. ptrace_stop() and handle_group_stop() use set_task_state() which adds the

Michael Neuling 06b8e878a9 taskstats scaled time cleanup
This moves the ability to scale cputime into generic code.  This allows us
to fix the issue in kernel/timer.c (noticed by Balbir) where we could only
add an unscaled value to the scaled utime/stime.

This adds a cputime_to_scaled function.  As before, the POWERPC version
does the scaling based on the last SPURR/PURR ratio calculated.  The
generic and s390 (only other arch to implement asm/cputime.h) versions are
both NOPs.

Also moves the SPURR and PURR snapshots closer.

Mark Gross d82b35186e pm qos infrastructure and interface
The following patch is a generalization of the latency.c implementation done
by Arjan last year.  It provides infrastructure for more than one parameter,
and exposes a user mode interface for processes to register pm_qos
expectations of processes.

This interface provides a kernel and user mode interface for registering
performance expectations by drivers, subsystems and user space applications on
one of the parameters.

Currently we have {cpu_dma_latency, network_latency, network_throughput} as
the initial set of pm_qos parameters.

The infrastructure exposes multiple misc device nodes one per implemented
parameter.  The set of parameters implement is defined by pm_qos_power_init()
and pm_qos_params.h.  This is done because having the available parameters
being runtime configurable or changeable from a driver was seen as too easy to
abuse.

For each parameter a list of performance requirements is maintained along with
an aggregated target value.  The aggregated target value is updated with
changes to the requirement list or elements of the list.  Typically the
aggregated target value is simply the max or min of the requirement values
held in the parameter list elements.

>From kernel mode the use of this interface is simple:

pm_qos_add_requirement(param_id, name, target_value):

  Will insert a named element in the list for that identified PM_QOS
  parameter with the target value.  Upon change to this list the new target is
  recomputed and any registered notifiers are called only if the target value
  is now different.

pm_qos_update_requirement(param_id, name, new_target_value):

  Will search the list identified by the param_id for the named list element
  and then update its target value, calling the notification tree if the
  aggregated target is changed.  with that name is already registered.

pm_qos_remove_requirement(param_id, name):

  Will search the identified list for the named element and remove it, after
  removal it will update the aggregate target and call the notification tree
  if the target was changed as a result of removing the named requirement.

>From user mode:

  Only processes can register a pm_qos requirement.  To provide for
  automatic cleanup for process the interface requires the process to register
  its parameter requirements in the following way:

  To register the default pm_qos target for the specific parameter, the
  process must open one of /dev/[cpu_dma_latency, network_latency,
  network_throughput]

  As long as the device node is held open that process has a registered
  requirement on the parameter.  The name of the requirement is
  "process_<PID>" derived from the current->pid from within the open system
  call.

  To change the requested target value the process needs to write a s32
  value to the open device node.  This translates to a
  pm_qos_update_requirement call.

  To remove the user mode request for a target value simply close the device
  node.

Serge E. Hallyn 3b7391de67 capabilities: introduce per-process capability bounding set
The capability bounding set is a set beyond which capabilities cannot grow.
 Currently cap_bset is per-system.  It can be manipulated through sysctl,
but only init can add capabilities.  Root can remove capabilities.  By
default it includes all caps except CAP_SETPCAP.

This patch makes the bounding set per-process when file capabilities are
enabled.  It is inherited at fork from parent.  Noone can add elements,
CAP_SETPCAP is required to remove them.

One example use of this is to start a safer container.  For instance, until
device namespaces or per-container device whitelists are introduced, it is
best to take CAP_MKNOD away from a container.

The bounding set will not affect pP and pE immediately.  It will only
affect pP' and pE' after subsequent exec()s.  It also does not affect pI,
and exec() does not constrain pI'.  So to really start a shell with no way
of regain CAP_MKNOD, you would do

	prctl(PR_CAPBSET_DROP, CAP_MKNOD);
	cap_t cap = cap_get_proc();
	cap_value_t caparray[1];
	caparray[0] = CAP_MKNOD;
	cap_set_flag(cap, CAP_INHERITABLE, 1, caparray, CAP_DROP);
	cap_set_proc(cap);
	cap_free(cap);

The following test program will get and set the bounding
set (but not pI).  For instance

	./bset get
		(lists capabilities in bset)
	./bset drop cap_net_raw
		(starts shell with new bset)
		(use capset, setuid binary, or binary with
		file capabilities to try to increase caps)

Andrew Morgan e338d263a7 Add 64-bit capability support to the kernel
The patch supports legacy (32-bit) capability userspace, and where possible
translates 32-bit capabilities to/from userspace and the VFS to 64-bit
kernel space capabilities.  If a capability set cannot be compressed into
32-bits for consumption by user space, the system call fails, with -ERANGE.

FWIW libcap-2.00 supports this change (and earlier capability formats)

Bron Gondwana 195cf453d2 mm/page-writeback: highmem_is_dirtyable option
Add vm.highmem_is_dirtyable toggle

A 32 bit machine with HIGHMEM64 enabled running DCC has an MMAPed file of
approximately 2Gb size which contains a hash format that is written
randomly by the dbclean process.  On 2.6.16 this process took a few
minutes.  With lowmem only accounting of dirty ratios, this takes about 12
hours of 100% disk IO, all random writes.

Include a toggle in /proc/sys/vm/highmem_is_dirtyable which can be set to 1 to
add the highmem back to the total available memory count.

Christoph Lameter 9f8f217253 Page allocator: clean up pcp draining functions
- Add comments explaing how drain_pages() works.

- Eliminate useless functions

- Rename drain_all_local_pages to drain_all_pages(). It does drain
  all pages not only those of the local processor.

- Eliminate useless interrupt off / on sequences. drain_pages()
  disables interrupts on its own. The execution thread is
  pinned to processor by the caller. So there is no need to
  disable interrupts.

- Put drain_all_pages() declaration in gfp.h and remove the
  declarations from suspend.h and from mm/memory_hotplug.c

- Make software suspend call drain_all_pages(). The draining
  of processor local pages is may not the right approach if
  software suspend wants to support SMP. If they call drain_all_pages
  then we can make drain_pages() static.

Davide Libenzi 4d672e7ac7 timerfd: new timerfd API
This is the new timerfd API as it is implemented by the following patch:

int timerfd_create(int clockid, int flags);
int timerfd_settime(int ufd, int flags,
		    const struct itimerspec *utmr,
		    struct itimerspec *otmr);
int timerfd_gettime(int ufd, struct itimerspec *otmr);

The timerfd_create() API creates an un-programmed timerfd fd.  The "clockid"
parameter can be either CLOCK_MONOTONIC or CLOCK_REALTIME.

The timerfd_settime() API give new settings by the timerfd fd, by optionally
retrieving the previous expiration time (in case the "otmr" parameter is not
NULL).

The time value specified in "utmr" is absolute, if the TFD_TIMER_ABSTIME bit
is set in the "flags" parameter.  Otherwise it's a relative time.

The timerfd_gettime() API returns the next expiration time of the timer, or
{0, 0} if the timerfd has not been set yet.

Like the previous timerfd API implementation, read(2) and poll(2) are
supported (with the same interface).  Here's a simple test program I used to
exercise the new timerfd APIs:

As Roland pointed out, we have the very old problem with exec.  de_thread()
sets SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT, kills other threads, changes ->group_leader and then
clears signal->flags.  All signals (even fatal ones) sent in this window
(which is not too small) will be lost.

With this patch exec doesn't abuse SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT.  signal_group_exit(),
the new helper, should be used to detect exit_group() or exec() in progress.
It can have more users, but this patch does only strictly necessary changes.

Every time we set SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT or clear SIGNAL_STOP_DEQUEUED we also
reset ->group_stop_count.

This means that the SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT check in handle_group_stop() is not
needed, and do_signal_stop() should check SIGNAL_STOP_DEQUEUED only when
->group_stop_count == 0. With these changes handle_group_stop() becomes the
subset of do_signal_stop(), we can kill it and use do_signal_stop() instead.

Also, a preparation for the next patch.

Oleg Nesterov 198466b41d __group_complete_signal(): fix coredump with group stop race
When __group_complete_signal() sees sig_kernel_coredump() signal, it starts
the group stop, but sets ->group_exit_task = t in a hope that "t" will
actually dequeue this signal and invoke do_coredump().  However, by the
time "t" enters get_signal_to_deliver() it is possible that the signal was
blocked/ignored or we have another pending !SIG_KERNEL_COREDUMP_MASK signal
which will be dequeued first.  This means the task could be stopped but not
killed.

Remove this code from __group_complete_signal().  Note also this patch
removes the bogus signal_wake_up(t, 1).  This thread can't be
STOPPED/TRACED, note the corresponding check in wants_signal().

Andrew Morton bdff746a39 clone: prepare to recycle CLONE_STOPPED
Ulrich says that we never used this clone flags and that nothing should be
using it.

As we're down to only a single bit left in clone's flags argument, let's add a
warning to check that no userspace is actually using it.  Hopefully we will
be able to recycle it.

Roland said:

  CLONE_STOPPED was previously used by some NTPL versions when under
  thread_db (i.e.  only when being actively debugged by gdb), but not for a
  long time now, and it never worked reliably when it was used.  Removing it
  seems fine to me.

Mathieu Desnoyers 3f550096de Add HAVE_KPROBES
Linus:

On the per-architecture side, I do think it would be better to *not* have
internal architecture knowledge in a generic file, and as such a line like

        depends on X86_32 || IA64 || PPC || S390 || SPARC64 || X86_64 || AVR32

really shouldn't exist in a file like kernel/Kconfig.instrumentation.

It would be much better to do

        depends on ARCH_SUPPORTS_KPROBES

in that generic file, and then architectures that do support it would just
have a

        bool ARCH_SUPPORTS_KPROBES
                default y

in *their* architecture files. That would seem to be much more logical,
and is readable both for arch maintainers *and* for people who have no
clue - and don't care - about which architecture is supposed to support
which interface...

Changelog:

Actually, I know I gave this as the magic incantation, but now that I see
it, I realize that I should have told you to just use

        config KPROBES_SUPPORT
                def_bool y

instead, which is a bit denser.

We seem to use both kinds of syntax for these things, but this is really
what "def_bool" is there for...

- Use HAVE_KPROBES
- Use a select

- Yet another update :
Moving to HAVE_* now.

- Update ARM for kprobes support.

Mathieu Desnoyers c0ffa3a951 Fix ARM to play nicely with generic Instrumentation menu
The conflicting commit for
move-kconfiginstrumentation-to-arch-kconfig-and-init-kconfig.patch
is the ARM fix from Linus :

commit 38ad9aebe7

He just seemed to agree that my approach (just putting the missing ARM
config options in arch/arm/Kconfig) works too. The main advantage it has
is that it is smaller, does not need a cleanup in the future and does
not break the following patches unnecessarily.

It's just been discussed here

http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/1/15/267

However, Linus might prefer to stay with his own patch and I would
totally understand it that late in the release cycle. Therefore I submit
this for the next release cycle.

Paul Mundt dfacd68e49 kobject: Always build in kernel/ksysfs.o.
kernel/ksysfs.c seems to be a random dumping group for misc globals
that the rest of the tree depend on. This has caused problems with
exports in the past when sysfs is disabled, which can already be
observed in commit-id 51107301b6.

The latest one is the kernel_kobj usage, which presently results in:

fs/built-in.o: In function `debugfs_init':
inode.c:(.init.text+0xc34): undefined reference to `kernel_kobj'
make: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1

kernel/ksysfs.c itself at this point only contains globals and some
basic sysfs initialization, the sysfs initialization code is optimized
out when we build with sysfs disabled. Given that, it's easier to just
build in unconditionally, rather than trying to find some other random
place to dump and initialize the globals.

Additionally, the current trend seems to be decoupling of kobjects from
sysfs, in which case it still makes sense to perform the kernel_kobj
initialization that happens here even if sysfs is disabled, as
lib/kobject.o is built-in unconditionally.

Johannes Berg af258f516b Suspend: Invoke suspend notifications after console switch
In order to fix APM emulation it is necessary to enable apm-emulation
notifications for suspends triggered in various ways via the suspend
notifiers.  However, this will cause the systems using APM emulation
to lock up between X being needed to switch away from the VT and X
already waiting for resume in the APM ioctl.

This patch moves the console switch (if enabled) before the suspend
notification (and after the resume notification) to avoid this issue.

Rafael J. Wysocki c697eecebc Suspend: Introduce begin() and end() callbacks
On ACPI systems the target state set by acpi_pm_set_target() is
reset by acpi_pm_finish(), but that need not be called if the
suspend fails.  All platforms that use the .set_target() global
suspend callback are affected by analogous issues.

For this reason, we need an additional global suspend callback that
will reset the target state regardless of whether or not the suspend
is successful.  Also, it is reasonable to rename the .set_target()
callback, since it will be used for a different purpose on ACPI
systems (due to ACPI 1.0x code ordering requirements).

Introduce the global suspend callback .end() to be executed at the
end of the suspend sequence and rename the .set_target() global
suspend callback to .begin().

Make it possible to test the hibernation core code with the help of the
/sys/power/pm_test attribute introduced for suspend testing in the previous

Writing an appropriate string to this file causes the hibernation code to work

freezer

devices
- test the freezing of processes and suspending of devices

platform
- test the freezing of processes, suspending of devices and platform global
  control methods(*)

processors
- test the freezing of processes, suspending of devices, platform global
  control methods(*) and the disabling of nonboot CPUs

core
- test the freezing of processes, suspending of devices, platform global
  control methods(*), the disabling of nonboot CPUs and suspending of
  platform/system devices

(*) - the platform global control methods are only available on ACPI systems
      and are only tested if the hibernation mode is set to "platform"

Then, if a hibernation is started by normal means, the hibernation core will
perform its normal operations up to the point indicated by given test level.
Next, it will wait for 5 seconds and carry out the resume operations needed to
transition the system back to the fully functional state.

core
- test the freezing of processes, suspending of devices, platform global

(*) These are ACPI global control methods on ACPI systems

Then, if a suspend is started by normal means, the suspend core will perform
its normal operations up to the point indicated by given test level.  Next, it

Writing "none" to /sys/power/pm_test turns the testing off.

When open for reading, /sys/power/pm_test contains a space-separated list of all
available tests (including "none" that represents the normal functionality) in
which the current test level is indicated by square brackets.

Rafael J. Wysocki af508b34d2 Hibernation: Introduce SNAPSHOT_GET_IMAGE_SIZE ioctl
Add a new ioctl, SNAPSHOT_GET_IMAGE_SIZE, returning the size of the (just
created) hibernation image, to the hibernation userland interface.

This ioctl is necessary so that the userland utilities using the interface need
not access the hibernation image header, owned by the kernel, in order to obtain
the size of the image.

Eric Paris 320f1b1ed2 [AUDIT] ratelimit printk messages audit
some printk messages from the audit system can become excessive.  This
patch ratelimits those messages.  It was found that messages, such as
the audit backlog lost printk message could flood the logs to the point
that a machine could take an nmi watchdog hit or otherwise become
unresponsive.

Eric Paris b593d384ef [AUDIT] create context if auditing was ever enabled
Disabling audit at runtime by auditctl doesn't mean that we can
stop allocating contexts for new processes; we don't want to miss them
when that sucker is reenabled.

Eric Paris 1a6b9f2317 [AUDIT] make audit=0 really stop audit messages
Some audit messages (namely configuration changes) are still emitted even if
the audit subsystem has been explicitly disabled.  This patch turns those
messages off as well.

Eric Paris de6bbd1d30 [AUDIT] break large execve argument logging into smaller messages
execve arguments can be quite large.  There is no limit on the number of
arguments and a 4G limit on the size of an argument.

this patch prints those aruguments in bite sized pieces.  a userspace size
limitation of 8k was discovered so this keeps messages around 7.5k

single arguments larger than 7.5k in length are split into multiple records
and can be identified as aX[Y]=

Eric Paris e445deb593 [AUDIT] include audit type in audit message when using printk
Currently audit drops the audit type when an audit message goes through
printk instead of the audit deamon.  This is a minor annoyance in
that the audit type is no longer part of the message and the information
the audit type conveys needs to be carried in, or derived from the
message data.

The attached patch includes the type number as part of the printk.
Admittedly it isn't the type name that the audit deamon provides but I
think this is better than dropping the type completely.

Eric Paris 6246ccab99 [AUDIT] do not panic on exclude messages in audit_log_pid_context()
If we fail to get an ab in audit_log_pid_context this may be due to an exclude
rule rather than a memory allocation failure.  If it was due to a memory
allocation failue we would have already paniced and no need to do it again.

Eric Paris c0641f28dc [AUDIT] Add End of Event record
This patch adds an end of event record type. It will be sent by the kernel as
the last record when a multi-record event is triggered. This will aid realtime
analysis programs since they will now reliably know they have the last record
to complete an event. The audit daemon filters this and will not write it to
disk.

Eric Paris c2a7780efe [AUDIT] collect uid, loginuid, and comm in OBJ_PID records
Add uid, loginuid, and comm collection to OBJ_PID records.  This just
gives users a little more information about the task that received a
signal.  pid is rather meaningless after the fact, and even though comm
isn't great we can't collect exe reasonably on this code path for
performance reasons.
