is_current_single_threaded() can safely miss a freshly forked CLONE_VM
task, but in this case it must not miss its parent. That is why we take
mm->mmap_sem for writing to make sure a thread/task with the same ->mm
can't pass exit_mm() and disappear.
However we can avoid ->mmap_sem and rely on rcu/barriers:
- if we do not see the exiting parent on thread/process list
we see the result of list_del_rcu(), in this case we must
also see the result of list_add_rcu() which does wmb().
- if we do see the parent but its ->mm == NULL, we need rmb()
to make sure we can't miss the child.

- Fix the comment, is_single_threaded(p) actually means that nobody shares
->mm with p.
I think this helper should be renamed, and it should not have arguments.
With or without this patch it must not be used unless p == current,
otherwise we can't safely use p->signal or p->mm.
- "if (atomic_read(&p->signal->count) != 1)" is not right when we have a
zombie group leader, use signal->live instead.
- Add PF_KTHREAD check to skip kernel threads which may borrow p->mm,
otherwise we can return the wrong "false".
- Use for_each_process() instead of do_each_thread(), all threads must use
the same ->mm.
- Use down_write(mm->mmap_sem) + rcu_read_lock() instead of tasklist_lock
to iterate over the process list. If there is another CLONE_VM process
it can't pass exit_mm() which takes the same mm->mmap_sem. We can miss
a freshly forked CLONE_VM task, but this doesn't matter because we must
see its parent and return false.

signals: declare sys_rt_tgsigqueueinfo in syscalls.h
rcu: Mark Hierarchical RCU no longer experimental
dma-debug: Put all hash-chain locks into the same lock class
dma-debug: fix off-by-one error in overlap function
Linus noticed how unclean and buggy the overlap() function is:
- It uses convoluted (and bug-causing) positive checks for
range overlap - instead of using a more natural negative
check.
- Even the positive checks are buggy: a positive intersection
check has four natural cases while we checked only for three,
missing the (addr < start && addr2 == end) case for example.
- The variables are mis-named, making it non-obvious how the
check was done.
- It needlessly uses u64 instead of unsigned long. Since these
are kernel memory pointers and we explicitly exclude highmem
ranges anyway we cannot ever overflow 32 bits, even if we
could. (and on 64-bit it doesnt matter anyway)
All in one, this function needs a total revamp. I used Linus's
suggestions minus the paranoid checks (we cannot overflow really
because if we get totally bad DMA ranges passed far more things
break in the systems than just DMA debugging). I also fixed a
few other small details i noticed.

Kmemleak needs to track all the memory allocations but some of these
happen before kmemleak is initialised. These are stored in an internal
buffer which may be exceeded in some kernel configurations. This patch

the stack dump when the early log buffer is exceeded.

Some archs (alpha and s390) need to use weak definitions for percpu
variables in modules so that the compiler generates external
references for them.
This patch implements weak percpu definitions which arch can enable by
defining ARCH_NEEDS_WEAK_PER_CPU in arch percpu header file. This
weak definition adds the following two restrictions on percpu variable
definitions.
1. percpu symbols must be unique whether static or not
2. percpu variables can't be defined inside a function
To ensure that these restrictions are observed in generic code, config
option DEBUG_FORCE_WEAK_PER_CPU enables weak percpu definitions for
all cases.
This patch is inspired by Ivan Kokshaysky's alpha percpu patch.

The new generic checksum code has a small dependency on endianess and
worked only on big-endian systems. I could not find a nice efficient
way to express this, so I added an #ifdef. Using
'result += le16_to_cpu(*buff);' would have worked as well, but
would be slightly less efficient on big-endian systems and IMHO
would not be clearer.
Also fix a bug that prevents this from working on 64-bit machines.
If you have a 64-bit CPU and want to use the generic checksum
code, you should probably do some more optimizations anyway, but
at least the code should not break.

This happens because there are 1024 hash buckets, each with a
separate lock. Lockdep puts each lock into a separate lock class and
tracks them independently.
But in reality we never take more than one of the buckets, so they
really belong into a single lock-class. Annotate the has bucket lock

Many processor architectures have no 64-bit atomic instructions, but
we need atomic64_t in order to support the perf_counter subsystem.
This adds an implementation of 64-bit atomic operations using hashed
spinlocks to provide atomicity. For each atomic operation, the address
of the atomic64_t variable is hashed to an index into an array of 16
spinlocks. That spinlock is taken (with interrupts disabled) around the
operation, which can then be coded non-atomically within the lock.
On UP, all the spinlock manipulation goes away and we simply disable
interrupts around each operation. In fact gcc eliminates the whole
atomic64_lock variable as well.

It's theoretically possible that there are exception table entries
which point into the (freed) init text of modules. These could cause
future problems if other modules get loaded into that memory and cause
an exception as we'd see the wrong fixup. The only case I know of is
kvm-intel.ko (when CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=n).
Amerigo fixed this long-standing FIXME in the x86 version, but this
patch is more general.
This implements trim_init_extable(); most archs are simple since they
use the standard lib/extable.c sort code. Alpha and IA64 use relative
addresses in their fixups, so thier trimming is a slight variation.
Sparc32 is unique; it doesn't seem to define ARCH_HAS_SORT_EXTABLE,
yet it defines its own sort_extable() which overrides the one in lib.
It doesn't sort, so we have to mark deleted entries instead of
actually trimming them.

Some device drivers map the same physical address multiple times to a
dma address. Without an IOMMU this results in the same dma address being
put into the dma-debug hash multiple times. With a first-fit match in
hash_bucket_find() this function may return the wrong dma_debug_entry.
This can result in false positive warnings. This patch fixes it by
changing the first-fit behavior of hash_bucket_find() into a best-fit
algorithm.

DMA-mapping.txt says that debug_dma_sync_sg family must be called with
the _same_ one you passed into the dma_map_sg call, it should _NOT_ be
the 'count' value _returned_ from the dma_map_sg call.
debug_dma_sync_sg_for_cpu and debug_dma_sync_sg_for_device can't

A printf format specifier which would allow us to print a pure
function name has been suggested by Andrew Morton a couple of
months ago.
The current %pF is very convenient to print a function symbol,
but often we only want to print the name of the function, without
its asm offset.
That's what %pf does in this patch. The lowecase f has been chosen
for its intuitive meaning of a 'weak kind of %pF'.
The support for this new format would be welcome by the tracing code
where the need to print pure function names is often needed. This is
also true for other parts of the kernel:
$ git-grep -E "kallsyms_lookup\(.+?\)"
arch/blackfin/kernel/traps.c: symname = kallsyms_lookup(address, &symsize, &offset, &modname, namebuf);
arch/powerpc/xmon/xmon.c: name = kallsyms_lookup(pc, &size, &offset, NULL, tmpstr);
arch/sh/kernel/cpu/sh5/unwind.c: sym = kallsyms_lookup(pc, NULL, &offset, NULL, namebuf);
arch/x86/kernel/ftrace.c: kallsyms_lookup((unsigned long) syscall, NULL, NULL, NULL, str);
kernel/kprobes.c: sym = kallsyms_lookup((unsigned long)p->addr, NULL,
kernel/lockdep.c: return kallsyms_lookup((unsigned long)key, NULL, NULL, NULL, str);
kernel/trace/ftrace.c: kallsyms_lookup(rec->ip, NULL, NULL, NULL, str);
kernel/trace/ftrace.c: kallsyms_lookup(rec->ip, NULL, NULL, NULL, str);
kernel/trace/ftrace.c: kallsyms_lookup((unsigned long)rec->ops->func, NULL, NULL, NULL, str);
kernel/trace/ftrace.c: kallsyms_lookup(rec->ip, NULL, NULL, NULL, str);
kernel/trace/ftrace.c: kallsyms_lookup(rec->ip, NULL, NULL, NULL, str);
kernel/trace/ftrace.c: kallsyms_lookup(rec->ip, NULL, NULL, &modname, str);
kernel/trace/ftrace.c: kallsyms_lookup(*ptr, NULL, NULL, NULL, str);
kernel/trace/trace_functions.c: kallsyms_lookup(ip, NULL, NULL, NULL, str);
kernel/trace/trace_output.c: kallsyms_lookup(address, NULL, NULL, NULL, str);
Changes in v2:
- Add the explanation of the %pf role for vsnprintf() and bstr_printf()
- Change the comments by dropping the "asm offset" notion and only
define the %pf against the actual function offset notion.

The feature needs some more work because the notfier which is used to
check for pending allocations is called before the device drivers
->remove() function. Therefore this feature reports false positives.
A real fix for this issue is to introduce a new notifier event which sent
_after_ the driver has deinitialized itself. That will done for the next
kernel version.

This reverts commit f520360d93.
Tetsuo Handa, running a kernel with CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC=y and
CONFIG_UEVENT_HELPER_PATH=/sbin/hotplug, has been hitting RCU detected
CPU stalls: it's been spinning in the loop where do_execve() counts up
the args (but why wasn't fixup_exception working? dunno).
The recent change, switching kobject_uevent_env() from UMH_WAIT_EXEC
to UMH_NO_WAIT, is broken: the exec uses args on the local stack here,
and an env which is kfreed as soon as call_usermodehelper() returns.
It very much needs to wait for the exec to be done.
An alternative would be to keep the UMH_NO_WAIT, and complicate the code
to allocate and free these resources correctly? but no, as GregKH
pointed out when making the commit, CONFIG_UEVENT_HELPER_PATH="" is a
much better optimization - though some distros are still saying
/sbin/hotplug in their .config, yet with no such binary in their initrd
or their root.

finish initializing up their hardware.

Impact: provide useful missing info for developers
Kernel taint can occur in several situations such as warnings,
load of prorietary or staging modules, bad page, etc...
But when such taint happens, a developer might still be working on
the kernel, expecting that lockdep is still enabled. But a taint
disables lockdep without ever warning about it.
Such a kernel behaviour doesn't really help for kernel development.
This patch adds this missing warning.
Since the taint is done most of the time after the main message that
explain the real source issue, it seems safe to warn about it inside
add_taint() so that it appears at last, without hurting the main
information.
v2: Use a generic helper to disable lockdep instead of an
open coded xchg().

Fix slab corruption caused by alloc_cpumask_var_node() overwriting the
tail end of an off-stack cpumask.
The function zeros out cpumask bits beyond the last possible cpu. The
starting point for zeroing should be the beginning of the mask offset by a
byte count derived from the number of possible cpus. The offset was
calculated in bits instead of bytes. This resulted in overwriting the end
of the cpumask.

Patch for Per-CSS(Cgroup Subsys State) ID and private hierarchy code.
This patch attaches unique ID to each css and provides following.
- css_lookup(subsys, id)
returns pointer to struct cgroup_subysys_state of id.
- css_get_next(subsys, id, rootid, depth, foundid)
returns the next css under "root" by scanning
When cgroup_subsys->use_id is set, an id for css is maintained.
The cgroup framework only parepares
- css_id of root css for subsys
- id is automatically attached at creation of css.
- id is *not* freed automatically. Because the cgroup framework
don't know lifetime of cgroup_subsys_state.
free_css_id() function is provided. This must be called by subsys.
There are several reasons to develop this.
- Saving space .... For example, memcg's swap_cgroup is array of
pointers to cgroup. But it is not necessary to be very fast.
By replacing pointers(8bytes per ent) to ID (2byes per ent), we can
reduce much amount of memory usage.
- Scanning without lock.
CSS_ID provides "scan id under this ROOT" function. By this, scanning
css under root can be written without locks.
ex)
do {
rcu_read_lock();
next = cgroup_get_next(subsys, id, root, &found);
/* check sanity of next here */
css_tryget();
rcu_read_unlock();
id = found + 1
} while(...)
Characteristics:
- Each css has unique ID under subsys.
- Lifetime of ID is controlled by subsys.
- css ID contains "ID" and "Depth in hierarchy" and stack of hierarchy
- Allowed ID is 1-65535, ID 0 is UNUSED ID.
Design Choices:
- scan-by-ID v.s. scan-by-tree-walk.
As /proc's pid scan does, scan-by-ID is robust when scanning is done
by following kind of routine.
scan -> rest a while(release a lock) -> conitunue from interrupted
memcg's hierarchical reclaim does this.
- When subsys->use_id is set, # of css in the system is limited to
65535.

filling the pages with poison byte patterns after free_pages() and
verifying the poison patterns before alloc_pages().
This generic one cannot detect invalid page accesses immediately but
invalid read access may cause invalid dereference by poisoned memory and
invalid write access can be detected after a long delay.

This patch combines Greg Bank's dprintk() work with the existing dynamic
printk patchset, we are now calling it 'dynamic debug'.
The new feature of this patchset is a richer /debugfs control file interface,
(an example output from my system is at the bottom), which allows fined grained
control over the the debug output. The output can be controlled by function,
file, module, format string, and line number.
for example, enabled all debug messages in module 'nf_conntrack':
echo -n 'module nf_conntrack +p' > /mnt/debugfs/dynamic_debug/control
to disable them:
echo -n 'module nf_conntrack -p' > /mnt/debugfs/dynamic_debug/control

Right now, the kobject_uevent code blocks for each uevent that's being
generated, due to using (for hystoric reasons) UHM_WAIT_EXEC as flag to
call_usermode_helper(). Specifically, the effect is that each uevent
that is being sent causes the code to wake up keventd, then block until
keventd has processed the work. Needless to say, this happens many times
during the system boot.
This patches changes that to UHN_NO_WAIT (brilliant name for a constant
btw) so that we only schedule the work to fire the uevent message, but
do not wait for keventd to process the work.
This removes one of the bottlenecks during boot; each one of them is
only a small effect, but the sum of them does add up.

This patch implements uevent suppress in kobject and removes it
from struct device, based on the following ideas:
1,Uevent sending should be one attribute of kobject, so suppressing it
in kobject layer is more natural than in device layer. By this way,
we can do it for other objects embedded with kobject.
2,It may save several bytes for each instance of struct device.(On my
omap3(32bit ARM) based box, can save 8bytes per device object)
This patch also introduces dev_set|get_uevent_suppress() helpers to
set and query uevent_suppress attribute in case to help kobject
as private part of struct device in future.

This adds a function to dump the DMA mappings that the debugging code is
aware of -- either for a single device, or for _all_ devices.
This can be useful for debugging -- sticking a call to it in the DMA
page fault handler, for example, to see if the faulting address _should_
be mapped or not, and hence work out whether it's IOMMU bugs we're
seeing, or driver bugs.

Impact: avoid recursive kfree calls, less slab activity on heavy load
debugobjects checks on kfree whether tracked objects are freed. When a
tracked object is freed debugobjects frees the internal reference
object as well. The debug object slab cache is marked to not recurse
into debugobjects when a slab objects is freed, but the recursive call
can be problematic versus locking in the memory allocator.
Defer the freeing of debug slab objects via schedule_work. The reasons
not to use RCU are:
1) rcu makes the data structure larger
2) there is no real need for rcu as nothing references the obj after
we freed it
3) under heavy load it is easier to reuse the to be freed objects instead
of allocating new objects from the slab. This lowered the slab activity
significantly in a heavy load networking test where lots of timers are
created/destroyed. The workqueue based delayed free allows us just to
put the to be freed objects back into the object pool and reuse them
right away.

Impact: refactor/consolidate object management, prepare for delayed free
debugobjects allocates static reference objects to track objects which
are initialized or activated before the slab cache becomes
available. These static reference objects have to be handled
seperately in free_object(). The handling of these objects is in the
way of implementing a delayed free functionality. The delayed free is
required to avoid callbacks into the mm code from
debug_check_no_obj_freed().
Replace the static object references with dynamic ones after the slab
cache has been initialized. The static objects are now marked initdata.

Fix a problem in the IDR system, where an idr_remove_all() hands a data
element to call_rcu() (via free_layer()) before making that data element
inaccessible to new readers. This is very bad, and results in readers
still having a reference to this data element at the end of the grace
period.
Tests on large machines that concurrently map and unmap user-space memory
within the same multithreaded process result in crashes within about five
minutes. Applying this patch increases the kernel's longevity to the
three-to-eight-hour range.

An new optimization is making its way to ftrace. Its purpose is to
make trace_printk() consuming less memory and be faster.
Written by Lai Jiangshan, the approach is to delay the formatting
job from tracing time to output time.
Currently, a call to trace_printk() will format the whole string and
insert it into the ring buffer. Then you can read it on /debug/tracing/trace
file.
The new implementation stores the address of the format string and
the binary parameters into the ring buffer, making the packet more compact
and faster to insert.
Later, when the user exports the traces, the format string is retrieved
with the binary parameters and the formatting job is eventually done.
The new implementation rewrites a lot of format decoding bits from
vsnprintf() function, making now 3 differents functions to maintain
in their duplicated parts of printf format decoding bits.
Suggested by Ingo Molnar, this patch tries to factorize the most
possible common bits from these functions.
The real common part between them is the format decoding. Although
they do somewhat similar jobs, their way to export or import the parameters
is very different. Thus, only the decoding layer is extracted, unless you see
other parts that could be worth factorized.
Changes in V2:
- Address a suggestion from Linus to group the format_decode() parameters inside
a structure.
Changes in v3:
- Address other cleanups suggested by Ingo and Linus such as passing the
printf_spec struct to the format helpers: pointer()/number()/string()
Note that this struct is passed by copy and not by address. This is to
avoid side effects because these functions often change these values and the
changes shoudn't be persistant when a callee helper returns.
It would be too risky.
- Various cleanups (code alignement, switch/case instead of if/else fountains).
- Fix a bug that printed the first format specifier following a %p
Changes in v4:
- drop unapropriate const qualifier loss while casting fmt to a char *

to on, you've got no way to turn it back off again at runtime.
Add a boolean toggle to turn it off. I would just make it an int
module_param, however people may already expect the boolean enable
behaviour, so just add an analogue for disabling.

Currently, netlink_broadcast() reports errors to the caller if no
messages at all were delivered:
1) If, at least, one message has been delivered correctly, returns 0.
2) Otherwise, if no messages at all were delivered due to skb_clone()
failure, return -ENOBUFS.
3) Otherwise, if there are no listeners, return -ESRCH.
With this patch, the caller knows if the delivery of any of the
messages to the listeners have failed:
1) If it fails to deliver any message (for whatever reason), return
-ENOBUFS.
2) Otherwise, if all messages were delivered OK, returns 0.
3) Otherwise, if no listeners, return -ESRCH.
In the current ctnetlink code and in Netfilter in general, we can add
reliable logging and connection tracking event delivery by dropping the
packets whose events were not successfully delivered over Netlink. Of
course, this option would be settable via /proc as this approach reduces
performance (in terms of filtered connections per seconds by a stateful
firewall) but providing reliable logging and event delivery (for
conntrackd) in return.
This patch also changes some clients of netlink_broadcast() that
may report ENOBUFS errors via printk. This error handling is not
of any help. Instead, the userspace daemons that are listening to
those netlink messages should resync themselves with the kernel-side
if they hit ENOBUFS.
BTW, netlink_broadcast() clients include those that call
cn_netlink_send(), nlmsg_multicast() and genlmsg_multicast() since they
internally call netlink_broadcast() and return its error value.

Impact: fix debug_smp_processor_id() for CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y
The scheduler now uses the new cpumask API, which deals up to
nr_cpumask_bits, whereas the API used NR_CPUS bits.
If CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y these two are not equal, so the top bits
are undefined. Leading to bug 12518 "BUG: using smp_processor_id() in
preemptible [00000000] code: dellWirelessCtl/..."
The fix is simple: use the modern API in the check.

Decoupling allows:
* hung tasks check to happen at very low priority
* hung tasks check and softlockup to be enabled/disabled independently
at compile and/or run-time
* individual panic settings to be enabled disabled independently
at compile and/or run-time
* softlockup threshold to be reduced without increasing hung tasks
poll frequency (hung task check is expensive relative to softlock watchdog)
* hung task check to be zero over-head when disabled at run-time
