threadgroup_lock() takes signal->cred_guard_mutex to ensure that
thread_group_leader() is stable. This doesn't look nice, the scope of
this lock in do_execve() is huge.
And as Dave pointed out this can lead to deadlock, we have the
following dependencies:
do_execve: cred_guard_mutex -> i_mutex
cgroup_mount: i_mutex -> cgroup_mutex
attach_task_by_pid: cgroup_mutex -> cred_guard_mutex
Change de_thread() to take threadgroup_change_begin() around the
switch-the-leader code and change threadgroup_lock() to avoid
->cred_guard_mutex.
Note that de_thread() can't sleep with ->group_rwsem held, this can
obviously deadlock with the exiting leader if the writer is active, so it
does threadgroup_change_end() before schedule().

There are 2 well known and ancient problems with coredump/signals, and a
lot of related bug reports:
- do_coredump() clears TIF_SIGPENDING but of course this can't help
if, say, SIGCHLD comes after that.
In this case the coredump can fail unexpectedly. See for example
wait_for_dump_helper()->signal_pending() check but there are other
reasons.
- At the same time, dumping a huge core on the slow media can take a
lot of time/resources and there is no way to kill the coredumping
task reliably. In particular this is not oom_kill-friendly.
This patch tries to fix the 1st problem, and makes the preparation for the
next changes.
We add the new SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP flag set by zap_threads() to indicate
that this process dumps the core. prepare_signal() checks this flag and
nacks any signal except SIGKILL.
Note that this check tries to be conservative, in the long term we should
probably treat the SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT case equally but this needs more
discussion. See marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=120508897917439
Notes:
- recalc_sigpending() doesn't check SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP.
The patch assumes that dump_write/etc paths should never
call it, but we can change it as well.
- There is another source of TIF_SIGPENDING, freezer. This
will be addressed separately.

call_usermodehelper_setup()
call_usermodehelper_setup() + call_usermodehelper_exec() need to be
called instead of call_usermodehelper_fns() when the cleanup function
needs to be called even when an ENOMEM error occurs. In this case using
call_usermodehelper_fns() the user can't distinguish if the cleanup
function was called or not.

This patch adds a new ptrace request PTRACE_PEEKSIGINFO.
This request is used to retrieve information about pending signals
starting with the specified sequence number. Siginfo_t structures are
copied from the child into the buffer starting at "data".
The argument "addr" is a pointer to struct ptrace_peeksiginfo_args.
struct ptrace_peeksiginfo_args {
u64 off; /* from which siginfo to start */
u32 flags;
s32 nr; /* how may siginfos to take */
};
"nr" has type "s32", because ptrace() returns "long", which has 32 bits on
i386 and a negative values is used for errors.
Currently here is only one flag PTRACE_PEEKSIGINFO_SHARED for dumping
signals from process-wide queue. If this flag is not set, signals are
read from a per-thread queue.
The request PTRACE_PEEKSIGINFO returns a number of dumped signals. If a
signal with the specified sequence number doesn't exist, ptrace returns
zero. The request returns an error, if no signal has been dumped.
Errors:
EINVAL - one or more specified flags are not supported or nr is negative
EFAULT - buf or addr is outside your accessible address space.
A result siginfo contains a kernel part of si_code which usually striped,
but it's required for queuing the same siginfo back during restore of
pending signals.
This functionality is required for checkpointing pending signals. Pedro
Alves suggested using it in "gdb" to peek at pending signals. gdb already
uses PTRACE_GETSIGINFO to get the siginfo for the signal which was already
dequeued. This functionality allows gdb to look at the pending signals
which were not reported yet.
The prototype of this code was developed by Oleg Nesterov.

There are several places in kernel where modules unescapes input to convert
C-Style Escape Sequences into byte codes.
The patch provides generic implementation of such approach. Test cases are

Two rt tasks bind to one CPU core.
The higher priority rt task A preempts a lower priority rt task B which
has already taken the write seq lock, and then the higher priority rt
task A try to acquire read seq lock, it's doomed to lockup.
rt task A with lower priority: call write
i_size_write rt task B with higher priority: call sync, and preempt task A
write_seqcount_begin(&inode->i_size_seqcount); i_size_read
inode->i_size = i_size; read_seqcount_begin <-- lockup here...
So disable preempt when acquiring every i_size_seqcount *write* lock will
cure the problem.

One of the problems that arise when converting dedicated custom
threadpool to workqueue is that the shared worker pool used by workqueue
anonimizes each worker making it more difficult to identify what the
worker was doing on which target from the output of sysrq-t or debug
dump from oops, BUG() and friends.
This patch implements set_worker_desc() which can be called from any
workqueue work function to set its description. When the worker task is
dumped for whatever reason - sysrq-t, WARN, BUG, oops, lockdep assertion
and so on - the description will be printed out together with the
workqueue name and the worker function pointer.
The printing side is implemented by print_worker_info() which is called
from functions in task dump paths - sched_show_task() and
dump_stack_print_info(). print_worker_info() can be safely called on
any task in any state as long as the task struct itself is accessible.
It uses probe_*() functions to access worker fields. It may print
garbage if something went very wrong, but it wouldn't cause (another)
oops.
The description is currently limited to 24bytes including the
terminating \0. worker->desc_valid and workder->desc[] are added and
the 64 bytes marker which was already incorrect before adding the new
fields is moved to the correct position.
Here's an example dump with writeback updated to set the bdi name as
worker desc.

One of the problems that arise when converting dedicated custom threadpool
to workqueue is that the shared worker pool used by workqueue anonimizes
each worker making it more difficult to identify what the worker was doing
on which target from the output of sysrq-t or debug dump from oops, BUG()
and friends.
For example, after writeback is converted to use workqueue instead of
priviate thread pool, there's no easy to tell which backing device a
writeback work item was working on at the time of task dump, which,
according to our writeback brethren, is important in tracking down issues
with a lot of mounted file systems on a lot of different devices.
This patchset implements a way for a work function to mark its execution
instance so that task dump of the worker task includes information to
indicate what the work item was doing.
An example WARN dump would look like the following.
WARNING: at fs/fs-writeback.c:1015 bdi_writeback_workfn+0x2b4/0x3c0()

This patch:
Implement probe_kthread_data() which returns kthread_data if accessible.
The function is equivalent to kthread_data() except that the specified
@task may not be a kthread or its vfork_done is already cleared rendering
struct kthread inaccessible. In the former case, probe_kthread_data() may
return any value. In the latter, NULL.
This will be used to safely print debug information without affecting
synchronization in the normal paths. Workqueue debug info printing on
dump_stack() and friends will make use of it.

show_regs() is inherently arch-dependent but it does make sense to print
generic debug information and some archs already do albeit in slightly
different forms. This patch introduces a generic function to print debug
information from show_regs() so that different archs print out the same
information and it's much easier to modify what's printed.
show_regs_print_info() prints out the same debug info as dump_stack()
does plus task and thread_info pointers.
* Archs which didn't print debug info now do.
alpha, arc, blackfin, c6x, cris, frv, h8300, hexagon, ia64, m32r,
metag, microblaze, mn10300, openrisc, parisc, score, sh64, sparc,
um, xtensa
* Already prints debug info. Replaced with show_regs_print_info().
The printed information is superset of what used to be there.
arm, arm64, avr32, mips, powerpc, sh32, tile, unicore32, x86
* s390 is special in that it used to print arch-specific information
along with generic debug info. Heiko and Martin think that the
arch-specific extra isn't worth keeping s390 specfic implementation.
Converted to use the generic version.
Note that now all archs print the debug info before actual register
dumps.
An example BUG() dump follows.

x86 and ia64 can acquire extra hardware identification information
from DMI and print it along with task dumps; however, the usage isn't
consistent.
* x86 show_regs() collects vendor, product and board strings and print
them out with PID, comm and utsname. Some of the information is
printed again later in the same dump.
* warn_slowpath_common() explicitly accesses the DMI board and prints
it out with "Hardware name:" label. This applies to both x86 and
ia64 but is irrelevant on all other archs.
* ia64 doesn't show DMI information on other non-WARN dumps.
This patch introduces arch-specific hardware description used by
dump_stack(). It can be set by calling dump_stack_set_arch_desc()
during boot and, if exists, printed out in a separate line with
"Hardware name:" label.
dmi_set_dump_stack_arch_desc() is added which sets arch-specific
description from DMI data. It uses dmi_ids_string[] which is set from
dmi_present() used for DMI debug message. It is superset of the
information x86 show_regs() is using. The function is called from x86
and ia64 boot code right after dmi_scan_machine().
This makes the explicit DMI handling in warn_slowpath_common()
unnecessary. Removed.
show_regs() isn't yet converted to use generic debug information
printing and this patch doesn't remove the duplicate DMI handling in
x86 show_regs(). The next patch will unify show_regs() handling and
remove the duplication.
An example WARN dump follows.

Both dump_stack() and show_stack() are currently implemented by each
architecture. show_stack(NULL, NULL) dumps the backtrace for the
current task as does dump_stack(). On some archs, dump_stack() prints
extra information - pid, utsname and so on - in addition to the
backtrace while the two are identical on other archs.
The usages in arch-independent code of the two functions indicate
show_stack(NULL, NULL) should print out bare backtrace while
dump_stack() is used for debugging purposes when something went wrong,
so it does make sense to print additional information on the task which
triggered dump_stack().
There's no reason to require archs to implement two separate but mostly
identical functions. It leads to unnecessary subtle information.
This patch expands the dummy fallback dump_stack() implementation in
lib/dump_stack.c such that it prints out debug information (taken from
x86) and invokes show_stack(NULL, NULL) and drops arch-specific
dump_stack() implementations in all archs except blackfin. Blackfin's
dump_stack() does something wonky that I don't understand.
Debug information can be printed separately by calling
dump_stack_print_info() so that arch-specific dump_stack()
implementation can still emit the same debug information. This is used
in blackfin.
This patch brings the following behavior changes.
* On some archs, an extra level in backtrace for show_stack() could be
printed. This is because the top frame was determined in
dump_stack() on those archs while generic dump_stack() can't do that
reliably. It can be compensated by inlining dump_stack() but not
sure whether that'd be necessary.
* Most archs didn't use to print debug info on dump_stack(). They do
now.
An example WARN dump follows.

v2: CPU number added to the generic debug info as requested by s390
folks and dropped the s390 specific dump_stack(). This loses %ksp
from the debug message which the maintainers think isn't important
enough to keep the s390-specific dump_stack() implementation.
dump_stack_print_info() is moved to kernel/printk.c from
lib/dump_stack.c. Because linkage is per objecct file,
dump_stack_print_info() living in the same lib file as generic
dump_stack() means that archs which implement custom dump_stack()
- at this point, only blackfin - can't use dump_stack_print_info()
as that will bring in the generic version of dump_stack() too. v1
The v1 patch broke build on blackfin due to this issue. The build
breakage was reported by Fengguang Wu.

Allow Xen tmem shim to be built/loaded as a module. Xen self-ballooning
and frontswap-selfshrinking are now also "lazily" initialized when the
Xen tmem shim is loaded as a module, unless explicitly disabled by
module parameters.
Note runtime dependency disallows loading if cleancache/frontswap lazy
initialization patches are not present.
If built-in (not built as a module), the original mechanism of enabling
via a kernel boot parameter is retained, but this should be considered
deprecated.
Note that module unload is explicitly not yet supported.

Frontswap initialization routine depends on swap_lock, which want to be
atomic about frontswap's first appearance. IOW, frontswap is not present
and will fail all calls OR frontswap is fully functional but if new
swap_info_struct isn't registered by enable_swap_info, swap subsystem
doesn't start I/O so there is no race between init procedure and page I/O
working on frontswap.
So let's remove unnecessary swap_lock dependency.

- OpenFirmware/DeviceTree support for the Power Supply core: the core
now automatically populates supplied_from hierarchy from the device
tree. With these patches chargers and batteries can now lookup
each other without the board files support shim. Rhyland Klein at
NVIDIA did the work
- New ST-Ericsson ABX500 hwmon driver. The driver is heavily using
the AB85xx core and depends on some recent changes to it, so that
is why the driver comes through the battery tree. It has an
appropriate ack from the hwmon maintainer (i.e. Guenter Roeck).
Martin Persson at ST-Ericsson and Hongbo Zhang at Linaro authored
the driver
- Final bits to sync AB85xx ST-Ericsson changes into mainline. The
changes touch mfd parts, but these were acked by the appropriate
MFD maintainer (ie Samuel Ortiz). Lee Jones at Linaro did most of
the work and lead the submission process.
Minor changes, but still worth mentioning:
- Battery temperature reporting fix for Nokia N900 phones
- Versatile Express poweroff driver moved into drivers/power/reset/

Pull core timer updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The main changes in this cycle's merge are:
- Implement shadow timekeeper to shorten in kernel reader side
blocking, by Thomas Gleixner.
- Posix timers enhancements by Pavel Emelyanov:
- allocate timer ID per process, so that exact timer ID allocations
can be re-created be checkpoint/restore code.
- debuggability and tooling (/proc/PID/timers, etc.) improvements.
- suspend/resume enhancements by Feng Tang: on certain new Intel Atom
processors (Penwell and Cloverview), there is a feature that the
TSC won't stop in S3 state, so the TSC value won't be reset to 0
after resume. This can be taken advantage of by the generic via
the CLOCK_SOURCE_SUSPEND_NONSTOP flag: instead of using the RTC to
recover/approximate sleep time, the main (and precise) clocksource
can be used.
- Fix /proc/timer_list for 4096 CPUs by Nathan Zimmer: on so many
CPUs the file goes beyond 4MB of size and thus the current
simplistic seqfile approach fails. Convert /proc/timer_list to a
proper seq_file with its own iterator.
- Cleanups and refactorings of the core timekeeping code by John
Stultz.
- International Atomic Clock time is managed by the NTP code
internally currently but not exposed externally. Separate the TAI
code out and add CLOCK_TAI support and TAI support to the hrtimer
and posix-timer code, by John Stultz.
- Add deep idle support enhacement to the broadcast clockevents core
timer code, by Daniel Lezcano: add an opt-in CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_DYNIRQ
clockevents feature (which will be utilized by future clockevents
driver updates), which allows the use of IRQ affinities to avoid
spurious wakeups of idle CPUs - the right CPU with an expiring
timer will be woken.
- Add new ARM bcm281xx clocksource driver, by Christian Daudt

Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo:
- Fixes and a lot of cleanups. Locking cleanup is finally complete.
cgroup_mutex is no longer exposed to individual controlelrs which
used to cause nasty deadlock issues. Li fixed and cleaned up quite a
bit including long standing ones like racy cgroup_path().
- device cgroup now supports proper hierarchy thanks to Aristeu.
- perf_event cgroup now supports proper hierarchy.
- A new mount option "__DEVEL__sane_behavior" is added. As indicated
by the name, this option is to be used for development only at this
point and generates a warning message when used. Unfortunately,
cgroup interface currently has too many brekages and inconsistencies
to implement a consistent and unified hierarchy on top. The new flag
is used to collect the behavior changes which are necessary to
implement consistent unified hierarchy. It's likely that this flag
won't be used verbatim when it becomes ready but will be enabled
implicitly along with unified hierarchy.
The option currently disables some of broken behaviors in cgroup core
and also .use_hierarchy switch in memcg (will be routed through -mm),
which can be used to make very unusual hierarchy where nesting is
partially honored. It will also be used to implement hierarchy
support for blk-throttle which would be impossible otherwise without
introducing a full separate set of control knobs.
This is essentially versioning of interface which isn't very nice but
at this point I can't see any other options which would allow keeping
the interface the same while moving towards hierarchy behavior which
is at least somewhat sane. The planned unified hierarchy is likely
to require some level of adaptation from userland anyway, so I think
it'd be best to take the chance and update the interface such that
it's supportable in the long term.
Maintaining the existing interface does complicate cgroup core but
shouldn't put too much strain on individual controllers and I think
it'd be manageable for the foreseeable future. Maybe we'll be able
to drop it in a decade.
Fix up conflicts (including a semantic one adding a new #include to ppc
that was uncovered by header the file changes) as per Tejun.

Pull workqueue updates from Tejun Heo:
"A lot of activities on workqueue side this time. The changes achieve
the followings.
- WQ_UNBOUND workqueues - the workqueues which are per-cpu - are
updated to be able to interface with multiple backend worker pools.
This involved a lot of churning but the end result seems actually
neater as unbound workqueues are now a lot closer to per-cpu ones.
- The ability to interface with multiple backend worker pools are
used to implement unbound workqueues with custom attributes.
Currently the supported attributes are the nice level and CPU
affinity. It may be expanded to include cgroup association in
future. The attributes can be specified either by calling
apply_workqueue_attrs() or through /sys/bus/workqueue/WQ_NAME/* if
the workqueue in question is exported through sysfs.
The backend worker pools are keyed by the actual attributes and
shared by any workqueues which share the same attributes. When
attributes of a workqueue are changed, the workqueue binds to the
worker pool with the specified attributes while leaving the work
items which are already executing in its previous worker pools
alone.
This allows converting custom worker pool implementations which
want worker attribute tuning to use workqueues. The writeback pool
is already converted in block tree and there are a couple others
are likely to follow including btrfs io workers.
- WQ_UNBOUND's ability to bind to multiple worker pools is also used
to make it NUMA-aware. Because there's no association between work
item issuer and the specific worker assigned to execute it, before
this change, using unbound workqueue led to unnecessary cross-node
bouncing and it couldn't be helped by autonuma as it requires tasks
to have implicit node affinity and workers are assigned randomly.
After these changes, an unbound workqueue now binds to multiple
NUMA-affine worker pools so that queued work items are executed in
the same node. This is turned on by default but can be disabled
system-wide or for individual workqueues.
Crypto was requesting NUMA affinity as encrypting data across
different nodes can contribute noticeable overhead and doing it
per-cpu was too limiting for certain cases and IO throughput could
be bottlenecked by one CPU being fully occupied while others have
idle cycles.
While the new features required a lot of changes including
restructuring locking, it didn't complicate the execution paths much.
The unbound workqueue handling is now closer to per-cpu ones and the
new features are implemented by simply associating a workqueue with
different sets of backend worker pools without changing queue,
execution or flush paths.
As such, even though the amount of change is very high, I feel
relatively safe in that it isn't likely to cause subtle issues with
basic correctness of work item execution and handling. If something
is wrong, it's likely to show up as being associated with worker pools
with the wrong attributes or OOPS while workqueue attributes are being
changed or during CPU hotplug.
While this creates more backend worker pools, it doesn't add too many
more workers unless, of course, there are many workqueues with unique
combinations of attributes. Assuming everything else is the same,
NUMA awareness costs an extra worker pool per NUMA node with online
CPUs.
There are also a couple things which are being routed outside the
workqueue tree.
- block tree pulled in workqueue for-3.10 so that writeback worker
pool can be converted to unbound workqueue with sysfs control
exposed. This simplifies the code, makes writeback workers
NUMA-aware and allows tuning nice level and CPU affinity via sysfs.
- The conversion to workqueue means that there's no 1:1 association
between a specific worker, which makes writeback folks unhappy as
they want to be able to tell which filesystem caused a problem from
backtrace on systems with many filesystems mounted. This is
resolved by allowing work items to set debug info string which is
printed when the task is dumped. As this change involves unifying
implementations of dump_stack() and friends in arch codes, it's
being routed through Andrew's -mm tree."
