Since 15a647eba94c3da27ccc666bea72e7cca06b2d19 set_irq_wake returned -ENXIO
if another device had it already enabled. Zero is the right value to

This patch keeps track of the boundaries of module allocation, in
order to speed up module_text_address().
Inspired by Arjan's version, which required arch-specific defines:
Various pieces of the kernel (lockdep, latencytop, etc) tend
to store backtraces, sometimes at a relatively high
frequency. In itself this isn't a big performance deal (after
all you're using diagnostics features), but there have been
some complaints from people who have over 100 modules loaded
that this is a tad too slow.
This is due to the new backtracer code which looks at every
slot on the stack to see if it's a kernel/module text address,
so that's 1024 slots. 1024 times 100 modules... that's a lot
of list walking.

This shrinks module.o and each *.ko file.
And finally, structure members which hold length of module
code (four such members there) and count of symbols
are converted from longs to ints.
We cannot possibly have a module where 32 bits won't
be enough to hold such counts.
For one, module loading checks module size for sanity
before loading, so such insanely big module will fail
that test first.

(because EXPORT_UNUSED_SYMBOL(x) are compiled out to nothing then).

rmmod has a little-used "-w" option, meaning that instead of failing if the
module is in use, it should block until the module becomes unused.
In this case, we don't need to use stop_machine: Max Krasnyansky

modules frequently.

This allow to dynamically generate attributes and share show/store
functions between attributes. Right now most attributes are generated
by special macros and lots of duplicated code. With the attribute
passed it's instead possible to attach some data to the attribute
and then use that in shared low level functions to do different things.
I need this for the dynamically generated bank attributes in the x86
machine check code, but it'll allow some further cleanups.
I converted all users in tree to the new show/store prototype. It's a single
huge patch to avoid unbisectable sections.

Right, I never liked having to fiddle with those TIF flags. Initially I
needed it because the hrtimer base lock could not nest in the rq lock.
That however is fixed these days.
Currently the only reason left to fiddle with the TIF flags is remote
wakeups. We cannot program a remote cpu's hrtimer. I've been thinking
about using the new and improved IPI function call stuff to implement
hrtimer_start_on().
However that does require that smp_call_function_single(.wait=0) works
from interrupt context - /me looks at the latest series from Jens - Yes
that does seem to be supported, good.
Here's a stab at cleaning this stuff up ...
Mihai reported test success as well.

* Optimize various places where a pointer to the cpumask_of_cpu value
will result in reducing stack pressure.

Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

* This patch replaces the dangerous lvalue version of cpumask_of_cpu
with new cpumask_of_cpu_ptr macros. These are patterned after the
node_to_cpumask_ptr macros.
In general terms, if there is a cpumask_of_cpu_map[] then a pointer to
the cpumask_of_cpu_map[cpu] entry is used. The cpumask_of_cpu_map
is provided when there is a large NR_CPUS count, reducing
greatly the amount of code generated and stack space used for
cpumask_of_cpu(). The pointer to the cpumask_t value is needed for
calling set_cpus_allowed_ptr() to reduce the amount of stack space
needed to pass the cpumask_t value.
If there isn't a cpumask_of_cpu_map[], then a temporary variable is
declared and filled in with value from cpumask_of_cpu(cpu) as well as
a pointer variable pointing to this temporary variable. Afterwards,
the pointer is used to reference the cpumask value. The compiler
will optimize out the extra dereference through the pointer as well
as the stack space used for the pointer, resulting in identical code.
A good example of the orthogonal usages is in net/sunrpc/svc.c:
case SVC_POOL_PERCPU:
{
unsigned int cpu = m->pool_to[pidx];
cpumask_of_cpu_ptr(cpumask, cpu);
*oldmask = current->cpus_allowed;
set_cpus_allowed_ptr(current, cpumask);
return 1;
}
case SVC_POOL_PERNODE:
{
unsigned int node = m->pool_to[pidx];
node_to_cpumask_ptr(nodecpumask, node);
*oldmask = current->cpus_allowed;
set_cpus_allowed_ptr(current, nodecpumask);
return 1;
}

This goes on top of the cpu_active_map (take 2) patch.
Currently we depend on the stop_machine to provide nescessesary
synchronization for the cpu_active_map updates.
As Dmitry Adamushko pointed this is fragile and is not much clearer
than the previous scheme. In other words we do not want to depend on
the internal stop machine operation here.
So make the synchronization rules clear by doing synchronize_sched()
after clearing out cpu active bit.
Tested on quad-Core2 with:
while true; do
for i in 1 2 3; do
echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu$i/online
done
for i in 1 2 3; do
echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu$i/online
done
done
and
stress -c 200

(take 2)
This is based on Linus' idea of creating cpu_active_map that prevents
scheduler load balancer from migrating tasks to the cpu that is going
down.
It allows us to simplify domain management code and avoid unecessary
domain rebuilds during cpu hotplug event handling.
Please ignore the cpusets part for now. It needs some more work in order
to avoid crazy lock nesting. Although I did simplfy and unify domain
reinitialization logic. We now simply call partition_sched_domains() in
all the cases. This means that we're using exact same code paths as in
cpusets case and hence the test below cover cpusets too.
Cpuset changes to make rebuild_sched_domains() callable from various
contexts are in the separate patch (right next after this one).
This not only boots but also easily handles
while true; do make clean; make -j 8; done
and
while true; do on-off-cpu 1; done
at the same time.
(on-off-cpu 1 simple does echo 0/1 > /sys/.../cpu1/online thing).
Suprisingly the box (dual-core Core2) is quite usable. In fact I'm typing
this on right now in gnome-terminal and things are moving just fine.
Also this is running with most of the debug features enabled (lockdep,
mutex, etc) no BUG_ONs or lockdep complaints so far.
I believe I addressed all of the Dmitry's comments for original Linus'
version. I changed both fair and rt balancer to mask out non-active cpus.
And replaced cpu_is_offline() with !cpu_active() in the main scheduler
code where it made sense (to me).

(1) handle in a generic way all cases when a newly woken-up task is
not migratable (not just a corner case when "rt_se->nr_cpus_allowed ==
1")
(2) if current is to be preempted, then make sure "p" will be picked
up by pick_next_task_rt().
i.e. move task's group at the head of its list as well.

This fixes an arcane bug that we think was a regression introduced
by commit b2b2cbc4b2a2f389442549399a993a8306420baf. When a parent
ignores SIGCHLD (or uses SA_NOCLDWAIT), its children would self-reap
but they don't if it's using ptrace on them. When the parent thread
later exits and ceases to ptrace a child but leaves other live
threads in the parent's thread group, any zombie children are left
dangling. The fix makes them self-reap then, as they would have
done earlier if ptrace had not been in use.

This reverts the effect of commit f2cc3eb133baa2e9dc8efd40f417106b2ee520f3
"do_wait: fix security checks". That change reverted the effect of commit
73243284463a761e04d69d22c7516b2be7de096c. The rationale for the original
commit still stands. The inconsistent treatment of children hidden by
ptrace was an unintended omission in the original change and in no way
invalidates its purpose.
This makes do_wait return the error returned by security_task_wait()
(usually -EACCES) in place of -ECHILD when there are some children the
caller would be able to wait for if not for the permission failure. A
permission error will give the user a clue to look for security policy
problems, rather than for mysterious wait bugs.

ptrace no longer fiddles with the children/sibling links, and the
old ptrace_children list is gone. Now ptrace, whether of one's own
children or another's via PTRACE_ATTACH, just uses the new ptraced
list instead.
There should be no user-visible difference that matters. The only
change is the order in which do_wait() sees multiple stopped
children and stopped ptrace attachees. Since wait_task_stopped()
was changed earlier so it no longer reorders the children list, we
already know this won't cause any new problems.

This breaks out the guts of do_wait into three subfunctions.

We can avoid taking the BKL in snapshot_ioctl() if pm_mutex is used to prevent
the ioctls from being executed concurrently.
In addition, although it is only possible to open /dev/snapshot once, the task
which has done that may spawn a child that will inherit the open descriptor,
so in theory they can call snapshot_write(), snapshot_read() and
snapshot_release() concurrently. pm_mutex can also be used for mutual
exclusion in such cases.

The freezer currently attempts to distinguish kernel threads from
user space tasks by checking if their mm pointer is unset and it
does not send fake signals to kernel threads. However, there are
kernel threads, mostly related to networking, that behave like
user space tasks and may want to be sent a fake signal to be frozen.
Introduce the new process flag PF_FREEZER_NOSIG that will be set
by default for all kernel threads and make the freezer only send
fake signals to the tasks having PF_FREEZER_NOSIG unset. Provide
the set_freezable_with_signal() function to be called by the kernel
threads that want to be sent a fake signal for freezing.
This patch should not change the freezer's observable behavior.
