move_task_off_dead_cpu()->select_fallback_rq() reads/updates ->cpus_allowed
lockless. We can race with set_cpus_allowed() running in parallel.
Change it to take rq->lock around select_fallback_rq(). Note that it is not
trivial to move this spin_lock() into select_fallback_rq(), we must recheck
the task was not migrated after we take the lock and other callers do not
need this lock.
To avoid the races with other callers of select_fallback_rq() which rely on
TASK_WAKING, we also check p->state != TASK_WAKING and do nothing otherwise.
The owner of TASK_WAKING must update ->cpus_allowed and choose the correct
CPU anyway, and the subsequent __migrate_task() is just meaningless because
p->se.on_rq must be false.
Alternatively, we could change select_task_rq() to take rq->lock right
after it calls sched_class->select_task_rq(), but this looks a bit ugly.
Also, change it to not assume irqs are disabled and absorb __migrate_task_irq().

cpuset_lock/cpuset_cpus_allowed_locked code
This patch just states the fact the cpusets/cpuhotplug interaction is
broken and removes the deadlockable code which only pretends to work.
- cpuset_lock() doesn't really work. It is needed for
cpuset_cpus_allowed_locked() but we can't take this lock in
try_to_wake_up()->select_fallback_rq() path.
- cpuset_lock() is deadlockable. Suppose that a task T bound to CPU takes
callback_mutex. If cpu_down(CPU) happens before T drops callback_mutex
stop_machine() preempts T, then migration_call(CPU_DEAD) tries to take
cpuset_lock() and hangs forever because CPU is already dead and thus
T can't be scheduled.
- cpuset_cpus_allowed_locked() is deadlockable too. It takes task_lock()
which is not irq-safe, but try_to_wake_up() can be called from irq.
Kill them, and change select_fallback_rq() to use cpu_possible_mask, like
we currently do without CONFIG_CPUSETS.
Also, with or without this patch, with or without CONFIG_CPUSETS, the
callers of select_fallback_rq() can race with each other or with
set_cpus_allowed() pathes.
The subsequent patches try to to fix these problems.

Scheduler's task migration events don't work because they always
pass NULL regs perf_sw_event(). The event hence gets filtered
in perf_swevent_add().
Scheduler's context switches events use task_pt_regs() to get
the context when the event occured which is a wrong thing to
do as this won't give us the place in the kernel where we went
to sleep but the place where we left userspace. The result is
even more wrong if we switch from a kernel thread.
Use the hot regs snapshot for both events as they belong to the
non-interrupt/exception based events family. Unlike page faults
or so that provide the regs matching the exact origin of the event,
we need to save the current context.
This makes the task migration event working and fix the context
switch callchains and origin ip.

The trace event buffer used by perf to record raw sample events
is typed as an array of char and may then not be aligned to 8
by alloc_percpu().
But we need it to be aligned to 8 in sparc64 because we cast
this buffer into a random structure type built by the TRACE_EVENT()
macro to store the traces. So if a random 64 bits field is accessed
inside, it may be not under an expected good alignment.
Use an array of long instead to force the appropriate alignment, and
perform a compile time check to ensure the size in byte of the buffer
is a multiple of sizeof(long) so that its actual size doesn't get
shrinked under us.
This fixes unaligned accesses reported while using perf lock
in sparc 64.

Currently, binary readers of the ring buffer only know where events were
lost, but not how many events were lost at that location.
This information is available, but it would require adding another
field to the sub buffer header to include it.
But when a event can not fit at the end of a sub buffer, it is written
to the next sub buffer. This means there is a good chance that the
buffer may have room to hold this counter. If it does, write
the counter at the end of the sub buffer and set another flag
in the data size field that states that this information exists.

Currently, when the ring buffer drops events, it does not record
the fact that it did so. It does inform the writer that the event
was dropped by returning a NULL event, but it does not put in any
place holder where the event was dropped.
This is not a trivial thing to add because the ring buffer mostly
runs in overwrite (flight recorder) mode. That is, when the ring
buffer is full, new data will overwrite old data.
In a produce/consumer mode, where new data is simply dropped when
the ring buffer is full, it is trivial to add the placeholder
for dropped events. When there's more room to write new data, then
a special event can be added to notify the reader about the dropped
events.
But in overwrite mode, any new write can overwrite events. A place
holder can not be inserted into the ring buffer since there never
may be room. A reader could also come in at anytime and miss the
placeholder.
Luckily, the way the ring buffer works, the read side can find out
if events were lost or not, and how many events. Everytime a write
takes place, if it overwrites the header page (the next read) it
updates a "overrun" variable that keeps track of the number of
lost events. When a reader swaps out a page from the ring buffer,
it can record this number, perfom the swap, and then check to
see if the number changed, and take the diff if it has, which would be
the number of events dropped. This can be stored by the reader
and returned to callers of the reader.
Since the reader page swap will fail if the writer moved the head
page since the time the reader page set up the swap, this gives room
to record the overruns without worrying about races. If the reader
sets up the pages, records the overrun, than performs the swap,
if the swap succeeds, then the overrun variable has not been
updated since the setup before the swap.
For binary readers of the ring buffer, a flag is set in the header
of each sub page (sub buffer) of the ring buffer. This flag is embedded
in the size field of the data on the sub buffer, in the 31st bit (the size
can be 32 or 64 bits depending on the architecture), but only 27
bits needs to be used for the actual size (less actually).
We could add a new field in the sub buffer header to also record the
number of events dropped since the last read, but this will change the
format of the binary ring buffer a bit too much. Perhaps this change can
be made if the information on the number of events dropped is considered
important enough.
Note, the notification of dropped events is only used by consuming reads
or peeking at the ring buffer. Iterating over the ring buffer does not
keep this information because the necessary data is only available when
a page swap is made, and the iterator does not swap out pages.

If modules are configured in the build but unloading of modules is not,
then the refcnt is not defined. Place the get/put module tracepoints
under CONFIG_MODULE_UNLOAD since it references this field in the module
structure.
As a side-effect, this patch also reduces the code when MODULE_UNLOAD
is not set, because these unused tracepoints are not created.

Remove the @refcnt argument, because it has side-effects, and arguments with
side-effects are not skipped by the jump over disabled instrumentation and are
executed even when the tracepoint is disabled.

Network folks reported that directing all MSI-X vectors of their multi
queue NICs to a single core can cause interrupt stack overflows when
enough interrupts fire at the same time.
This is caused by the fact that we run interrupt handlers by default
with interrupts enabled unless the driver reuqests the interrupt with
the IRQF_DISABLED set. The NIC handlers do not set this flag, so
simultaneous interrupts can nest unlimited and cause the stack
overflow.
The only safe counter measure is to run the interrupt handlers with
interrupts disabled. We can't switch to this mode in general right
now, but it is safe to do so for MSI interrupts.
Force IRQF_DISABLED for MSI interrupt handlers.

implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

When the cgroup freezer is used to freeze tasks we do not want to thaw
those tasks during resume. Currently we test the cgroup freezer
state of the resuming tasks to see if the cgroup is FROZEN. If so
then we don't thaw the task. However, the FREEZING state also indicates
that the task should remain frozen.
This also avoids a problem pointed out by Oren Ladaan: the freezer state
transition from FREEZING to FROZEN is updated lazily when userspace reads
or writes the freezer.state file in the cgroup filesystem. This means that
resume will thaw tasks in cgroups which should be in the FROZEN state if
there is no read/write of the freezer.state file to trigger this
transition before suspend.
NOTE: Another "simple" solution would be to always update the cgroup
freezer state during resume. However it's a bad choice for several reasons:
Updating the cgroup freezer state is somewhat expensive because it requires
walking all the tasks in the cgroup and checking if they are each frozen.
Worse, this could easily make resume run in N^2 time where N is the number
of tasks in the cgroup. Finally, updating the freezer state from this code
path requires trickier locking because of the way locks must be ordered.
Instead of updating the freezer state we rely on the fact that lazy
updates only manage the transition from FREEZING to FROZEN. We know that
a cgroup with the FREEZING state may actually be FROZEN so test for that
state too. This makes sense in the resume path even for partially-frozen
cgroups -- those that really are FREEZING but not FROZEN.

show_state will dump all tasks state, so if freezer failed to freeze
any task, kernel will dump all tasks state and flood the dmesg log.
This patch makes freezer only show state of tasks refusing to freeze.

Support for the PMU's BTS features has been upstreamed in
v2.6.32, but we still have the old and disabled ptrace-BTS,
as Linus noticed it not so long ago.
It's buggy: TIF_DEBUGCTLMSR is trampling all over that MSR without
regard for other uses (perf) and doesn't provide the flexibility
needed for perf either.
Its users are ptrace-block-step and ptrace-bts, since ptrace-bts
was never used and ptrace-block-step can be implemented using a
much simpler approach.
So axe all 3000 lines of it. That includes the *locked_memory*()
APIs in mm/mlock.c as well.

The logarithmic accumulation done in the timekeeping has some overflow
protection that limits the max shift value. That means it will take
more then shift loops to accumulate all of the cycles. This causes
the shift decrement to underflow, which causes the loop to never exit.
The simplest fix would be simply to do a:
if (shift)
shift--;
However that is not optimal, as we know the cycle offset is larger
then the interval << shift, the above would make shift drop to zero,
then we would be spinning for quite awhile accumulating at interval
chunks at a time.
Instead, this patch only decreases shift if the offset is smaller
then cycle_interval << shift. This makes sure we accumulate using
the largest chunks possible without overflowing tick_length, and limits
the number of iterations through the loop.
This issue was found and reported by Sonic Zhang, who also tested the fix.
Many thanks your explanation and testing!

The ring buffer uses 4 byte alignment while recording events into the
buffer, even on 64bit machines. This saves space when there are lots
of events being recorded at 4 byte boundaries.
The ring buffer has a zero copy method to write into the buffer, with
the reserving of space and then committing it. This may cause problems
when writing an 8 byte word into a 4 byte alignment (not 8). For x86 and
PPC this is not an issue, but on some architectures this would cause an
out-of-alignment exception.
This patch uses CONFIG_HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS to determine
if it is OK to use 4 byte alignments on 64 bit machines. If it is not,
it forces the ring buffer event header to be 8 bytes and not 4,
and will align the length of the data to be 8 byte aligned.
This keeps the data payload at 8 byte alignments and will allow these
machines to run without issue.
The trick to this is that the header can be either 4 bytes or 8 bytes
depending on the length of the data payload. The 4 byte header
has a length field that supports up to 112 bytes. If the length of
the data is more than 112, the length field is set to zero, and the actual
length is stored in the next 4 bytes after the header.
When CONFIG_HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS is not set, the code forces
zero in the 4 byte header forcing the length to be stored in the 4 byte
array, even with a small data load. It also forces the length of the
data load to be 8 byte aligned. The combination of these two guarantee
that the data is always at 8 byte alignment.
