2013-04-11Audit: do not print error when LSMs disabledEric Paris
RHBZ: 785936 If the audit system collects a record about one process sending a signal to another process it includes in that collection the 'secid' or 'an int used to represet an LSM label.' If there is no LSM enabled it will collect a 0. The problem is that when we attempt to print that record we ask the LSM to convert the secid back to a string. Since there is no LSM it returns EOPNOTSUPP. Most code in the audit system checks if the secid is 0 and does not print LSM info in that case. The signal information code however forgot that check. Thus users will see a message in syslog indicating that converting the sid to string failed. Add the right check. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>

When compiling kernel with -jN (N > 1), all warning/error messages printed while openssl is generating key pair may get mixed dots and other symbols openssl sends to stderr.

2013-04-10perf: make perf_event cgroup hierarchicalTejun Heo
perf_event is one of a couple remaining cgroup controllers with broken hierarchy support. Converting it to support hierarchy is almost trivial. The only thing necessary is to consider a task belonging to a descendant cgroup as a match. IOW, if the cgroup of the currently executing task (@cpuctx->cgrp) equals or is a descendant of the event's cgroup (@event->cgrp), then the event should be enabled. Implement hierarchy support and remove .broken_hierarchy tag along with the incorrect comment on what needs to be done for hierarchy support.

2013-04-10cgroup: implement cgroup_is_descendant()Li Zefan
A couple controllers want to determine whether two cgroups are in ancestor/descendant relationship. As it's more likely that the descendant is the primary subject of interest and there are other operations focusing on the descendants, let's ask is_descendent rather than is_ancestor. Implementation is trivial as the previous patch guarantees that all ancestors of a cgroup stay accessible as long as the cgroup is accessible. tj: Removed depth optimization, renamed from cgroup_is_ancestor(), rewrote descriptions.

2013-04-08hrtimer: Fix ktime_add_ns() overflow on 32bit architecturesDavid Engraf
One can trigger an overflow when using ktime_add_ns() on a 32bit architecture not supporting CONFIG_KTIME_SCALAR. When passing a very high value for u64 nsec, e.g. 7881299347898368000 the do_div() function converts this value to seconds (7881299347) which is still to high to pass to the ktime_set() function as long. The result in is a negative value. The problem on my system occurs in the tick-sched.c, tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() when time_delta is set to timekeeping_max_deferment(). The check for time_delta < KTIME_MAX is valid, thus ktime_add_ns() is called with a too large value resulting in a negative expire value. This leads to an endless loop in the ticker code: time_delta: 7881299347898368000 expires = ktime_add_ns(last_update, time_delta) expires: negative value This fix caps the value to KTIME_MAX. This error doesn't occurs on 64bit or architectures supporting CONFIG_KTIME_SCALAR (e.g. ARM, x86-32).

The settimeofday01 test in the LTP testsuite effectively does gettimeofday(current time); settimeofday(Jan 1, 1970 + 100 seconds); settimeofday(current time); This test causes a stack trace to be displayed on the console during the setting of timeofday to Jan 1, 1970 + 100 seconds: [ 131.066751] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 131.096448] WARNING: at kernel/time/clockevents.c:209 clockevents_program_event+0x135/0x140() [ 131.104935] Hardware name: Dinar [ 131.108150] Modules linked in: sg nfsv3 nfs_acl nfsv4 auth_rpcgss nfs dns_resolver fscache lockd sunrpc nf_conntrack_netbios_ns nf_conntrack_broadcast ipt_MASQUERADE ip6table_mangle ip6t_REJECT nf_conntrack_ipv6 nf_defrag_ipv6 iptable_nat nf_nat_ipv4 nf_nat iptable_mangle ipt_REJECT nf_conntrack_ipv4 nf_defrag_ipv4 xt_conntrack nf_conntrack ebtable_filter ebtables ip6table_filter ip6_tables iptable_filter ip_tables kvm_amd kvm sp5100_tco bnx2 i2c_piix4 crc32c_intel k10temp fam15h_power ghash_clmulni_intel amd64_edac_mod pcspkr serio_raw edac_mce_amd edac_core microcode xfs libcrc32c sr_mod sd_mod cdrom ata_generic crc_t10dif pata_acpi radeon i2c_algo_bit drm_kms_helper ttm drm ahci pata_atiixp libahci libata usb_storage i2c_core dm_mirror dm_region_hash dm_log dm_mod [ 131.176784] Pid: 0, comm: swapper/28 Not tainted 3.8.0+ #6 [ 131.182248] Call Trace: [ 131.184684] <IRQ> [<ffffffff810612af>] warn_slowpath_common+0x7f/0xc0 [ 131.191312] [<ffffffff8106130a>] warn_slowpath_null+0x1a/0x20 [ 131.197131] [<ffffffff810b9fd5>] clockevents_program_event+0x135/0x140 [ 131.203721] [<ffffffff810bb584>] tick_program_event+0x24/0x30 [ 131.209534] [<ffffffff81089ab1>] hrtimer_interrupt+0x131/0x230 [ 131.215437] [<ffffffff814b9600>] ? cpufreq_p4_target+0x130/0x130 [ 131.221509] [<ffffffff81619119>] smp_apic_timer_interrupt+0x69/0x99 [ 131.227839] [<ffffffff8161805d>] apic_timer_interrupt+0x6d/0x80 [ 131.233816] <EOI> [<ffffffff81099745>] ? sched_clock_cpu+0xc5/0x120 [ 131.240267] [<ffffffff814b9ff0>] ? cpuidle_wrap_enter+0x50/0xa0 [ 131.246252] [<ffffffff814b9fe9>] ? cpuidle_wrap_enter+0x49/0xa0 [ 131.252238] [<ffffffff814ba050>] cpuidle_enter_tk+0x10/0x20 [ 131.257877] [<ffffffff814b9c89>] cpuidle_idle_call+0xa9/0x260 [ 131.263692] [<ffffffff8101c42f>] cpu_idle+0xaf/0x120 [ 131.268727] [<ffffffff815f8971>] start_secondary+0x255/0x257 [ 131.274449] ---[ end trace 1151a50552231615 ]--- When we change the system time to a low value like this, the value of timekeeper->offs_real will be a negative value. It seems that the WARN occurs because an hrtimer has been started in the time between the releasing of the timekeeper lock and the IPI call (via a call to on_each_cpu) in clock_was_set() in the do_settimeofday() code. The end result is that a REALTIME_CLOCK timer has been added with softexpires = expires = KTIME_MAX. The hrtimer_interrupt() fires/is called and the loop at kernel/hrtimer.c:1289 is executed. In this loop the code subtracts the clock base's offset (which was set to timekeeper->offs_real in do_settimeofday()) from the current hrtimer_cpu_base->expiry value (which was KTIME_MAX): KTIME_MAX - (a negative value) = overflow A simple check for an overflow can resolve this problem. Using KTIME_MAX instead of the overflow value will result in the hrtimer function being run, and the reprogramming of the timer after that.

2013-04-08audit: move kaudit thread start from auditd registration to kaudit initRichard Guy Briggs
The kauditd_thread() task was started only after the auditd userspace daemon registers itself with kaudit. This was fine when only auditd consumed messages from the kaudit netlink unicast socket. With the addition of a multicast group to that socket it is more convenient to have the thread start on init of the kaudit kernel subsystem.

2013-04-08PM / reboot: call syscore_shutdown() after disable_nonboot_cpus()Huacai Chen
As commit 40dc166c (PM / Core: Introduce struct syscore_ops for core subsystems PM) say, syscore_ops operations should be carried with one CPU on-line and interrupts disabled. However, after commit f96972f2d (kernel/sys.c: call disable_nonboot_cpus() in kernel_restart()), syscore_shutdown() is called before disable_nonboot_cpus(), so break the rules. We have a MIPS machine with a 8259A PIC, and there is an external timer (HPET) linked at 8259A. Since 8259A has been shutdown too early (by syscore_shutdown()), disable_nonboot_cpus() runs without timer interrupt, so it hangs and reboot fails. This patch call syscore_shutdown() a little later (after disable_nonboot_cpus()) to avoid reboot failure, this is the same way as poweroff does. For consistency, add disable_nonboot_cpus() to kernel_halt(). Signed-off-by: Huacai Chen <chenhc@lemote.com> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>
2013-04-08ftrace: Do not call stub functions in control loopSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)
The function tracing control loop used by perf spits out a warning if the called function is not a control function. This is because the control function references a per cpu allocated data structure on struct ftrace_ops that is not allocated for other types of functions. commit 0a016409e42 "ftrace: Optimize the function tracer list loop" Had an optimization done to all function tracing loops to optimize for a single registered ops. Unfortunately, this allows for a slight race when tracing starts or ends, where the stub function might be called after the current registered ops is removed. In this case we get the following dump: root# perf stat -e ftrace:function sleep 1 [ 74.339105] WARNING: at include/linux/ftrace.h:209 ftrace_ops_control_func+0xde/0xf0() [ 74.349522] Hardware name: PRIMERGY RX200 S6 [ 74.357149] Modules linked in: sg igb iTCO_wdt ptp pps_core iTCO_vendor_support i7core_edac dca lpc_ich i2c_i801 coretemp edac_core crc32c_intel mfd_core ghash_clmulni_intel dm_multipath acpi_power_meter pcspk r microcode vhost_net tun macvtap macvlan nfsd kvm_intel kvm auth_rpcgss nfs_acl lockd sunrpc uinput xfs libcrc32c sd_mod crc_t10dif sr_mod cdrom mgag200 i2c_algo_bit drm_kms_helper ttm qla2xxx mptsas ahci drm li bahci scsi_transport_sas mptscsih libata scsi_transport_fc i2c_core mptbase scsi_tgt dm_mirror dm_region_hash dm_log dm_mod [ 74.446233] Pid: 1377, comm: perf Tainted: G W 3.9.0-rc1 #1 [ 74.453458] Call Trace: [ 74.456233] [<ffffffff81062e3f>] warn_slowpath_common+0x7f/0xc0 [ 74.462997] [<ffffffff810fbc60>] ? rcu_note_context_switch+0xa0/0xa0 [ 74.470272] [<ffffffff811041a2>] ? __unregister_ftrace_function+0xa2/0x1a0 [ 74.478117] [<ffffffff81062e9a>] warn_slowpath_null+0x1a/0x20 [ 74.484681] [<ffffffff81102ede>] ftrace_ops_control_func+0xde/0xf0 [ 74.491760] [<ffffffff8162f400>] ftrace_call+0x5/0x2f [ 74.497511] [<ffffffff8162f400>] ? ftrace_call+0x5/0x2f [ 74.503486] [<ffffffff8162f400>] ? ftrace_call+0x5/0x2f [ 74.509500] [<ffffffff810fbc65>] ? synchronize_sched+0x5/0x50 [ 74.516088] [<ffffffff816254d5>] ? _cond_resched+0x5/0x40 [ 74.522268] [<ffffffff810fbc65>] ? synchronize_sched+0x5/0x50 [ 74.528837] [<ffffffff811041a2>] ? __unregister_ftrace_function+0xa2/0x1a0 [ 74.536696] [<ffffffff816254d5>] ? _cond_resched+0x5/0x40 [ 74.542878] [<ffffffff8162402d>] ? mutex_lock+0x1d/0x50 [ 74.548869] [<ffffffff81105c67>] unregister_ftrace_function+0x27/0x50 [ 74.556243] [<ffffffff8111eadf>] perf_ftrace_event_register+0x9f/0x140 [ 74.563709] [<ffffffff816254d5>] ? _cond_resched+0x5/0x40 [ 74.569887] [<ffffffff8162402d>] ? mutex_lock+0x1d/0x50 [ 74.575898] [<ffffffff8111e94e>] perf_trace_destroy+0x2e/0x50 [ 74.582505] [<ffffffff81127ba9>] tp_perf_event_destroy+0x9/0x10 [ 74.589298] [<ffffffff811295d0>] free_event+0x70/0x1a0 [ 74.595208] [<ffffffff8112a579>] perf_event_release_kernel+0x69/0xa0 [ 74.602460] [<ffffffff816254d5>] ? _cond_resched+0x5/0x40 [ 74.608667] [<ffffffff8112a640>] put_event+0x90/0xc0 [ 74.614373] [<ffffffff8112a740>] perf_release+0x10/0x20 [ 74.620367] [<ffffffff811a3044>] __fput+0xf4/0x280 [ 74.625894] [<ffffffff811a31de>] ____fput+0xe/0x10 [ 74.631387] [<ffffffff81083697>] task_work_run+0xa7/0xe0 [ 74.637452] [<ffffffff81014981>] do_notify_resume+0x71/0xb0 [ 74.643843] [<ffffffff8162fa92>] int_signal+0x12/0x17 To fix this a new ftrace_ops flag is added that denotes the ftrace_list_end ftrace_ops stub as just that, a stub.

2013-04-08ftrace: Consistently restore trace function on sysctl enablingJan Kiszka
If we reenable ftrace via syctl, we currently set ftrace_trace_function based on the previous simplistic algorithm. This is inconsistent with what update_ftrace_function does. So better call that helper instead.
