For some reason only the wait part of the wait api lives in
kernel/sched/wait.c and the wake part still lives in kernel/sched/core.c;
ammend this.

file move
There are conflicts in lockdep.c due to RCU changes, and also the RCU
tree changes kernel/Makefile - so pre-merge it to ease the moving of
locking related .c files to kernel/locking/.

The original SOFT_DISABLE patches didn't add support for soft disable
of syscall events; this adds it.
Add an array of ftrace_event_file pointers indexed by syscall number
to the trace array and remove the existing enabled bitmaps, which as a
result are now redundant. The ftrace_event_file structs in turn
contain the soft disable flags we need for per-syscall soft disable
accounting.
Adding ftrace_event_files also means we can remove the USE_CALL_FILTER
bit, thus enabling multibuffer filter support for syscall events.

register/unregister_ftrace_command() are only ever called from __init
functions, so can themselves be made __init.
Also make register_snapshot_cmd() __init for the same reason.

The trace event filters are still tied to event calls rather than
event files, which means you don't get what you'd expect when using
filters in the multibuffer case:
Before:
# echo 'bytes_alloc > 8192' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter
bytes_alloc > 8192
# mkdir /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/instances/test1
# echo 'bytes_alloc > 2048' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/instances/test1/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter
bytes_alloc > 2048
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/instances/test1/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter
bytes_alloc > 2048
Setting the filter in tracing/instances/test1/events shouldn't affect
the same event in tracing/events as it does above.
After:
# echo 'bytes_alloc > 8192' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter
bytes_alloc > 8192
# mkdir /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/instances/test1
# echo 'bytes_alloc > 2048' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/instances/test1/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter
bytes_alloc > 8192
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/instances/test1/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter
bytes_alloc > 2048
We'd like to just move the filter directly from ftrace_event_call to
ftrace_event_file, but there are a couple cases that don't yet have
multibuffer support and therefore have to continue using the current
event_call-based filters. For those cases, a new USE_CALL_FILTER bit
is added to the event_call flags, whose main purpose is to keep the
old behavior for those cases until they can be updated with
multibuffer support; at that point, the USE_CALL_FILTER flag (and the
new associated call_filter_check_discard() function) can go away.
The multibuffer support also made filter_current_check_discard()
redundant, so this change removes that function as well and replaces
it with filter_check_discard() (or call_filter_check_discard() as
appropriate).

Perf uses rcu_read_lock() but as the function tracer can trace functions
even when RCU is not currently active, this makes the rcu_read_lock()
used by perf ineffective.
As perf is currently the only user of the ftrace_ops_control_func() and
perf is also the only function callback that actively uses rcu_read_lock(),
the quick fix is to prevent the ftrace_ops_control_func() from calling
its callbacks if RCU is not active.
With Paul's new "rcu_is_watching()" we can tell if RCU is active or not.

As perf uses the rcu_read_lock() primitives for recording into its
ring buffer, perf tracing can not be called when RCU in inactive.
With the perf function tracing, there are functions that can be
traced when RCU is not active, and perf must not have its function
callback called when this is the case.
Luckily, Paul McKenney has created a way to detect when RCU is
active or not with the rcu_is_watching() function. Unfortunately,
this function can also be traced, and if that happens it can cause
a bit of overhead for the perf function calls that do the check.
Recursion protection prevents anything bad from happening, but
there is a bit of added overhead for every function being traced that
must detect that the rcu_is_watching() is also being traced.
As rcu_is_watching() is a helper routine and not part of the
critical logic in RCU, it does not need to be traced in order to
debug RCU itself. Add the "notrace" annotation to all the rcu_is_watching()
calls such that we never trace it.

Move the audit_bprm() call from search_binary_handler() to exec_binprm(). This
allows us to get rid of the mm member of struct audit_aux_data_execve since
bprm->mm will equal current->mm.
This also mitigates the issue that ->argc could be modified by the
load_binary() call in search_binary_handler().
audit_bprm() was being called to add an AUDIT_EXECVE record to the audit
context every time search_binary_handler() was recursively called. Only one
reference is necessary.

...to make it clear what the intent behind each record's operation was.
In many cases you can infer this, based on the context of the syscall
and the result. In other cases it's not so obvious. For instance, in
the case where you have a file being renamed over another, you'll have
two different records with the same filename but different inode info.
By logging this information we can clearly tell which one was created
and which was deleted.
This fixes what was broken in commit bfcec708.

Using the nlmsg_len member of the netlink header to test if the message
is valid is wrong as it includes the size of the netlink header itself.
Thereby allowing to send short netlink messages that pass those checks.
Use nlmsg_len() instead to test for the right message length. The result
of nlmsg_len() is guaranteed to be non-negative as the netlink message
already passed the checks of nlmsg_ok().
Also switch to min_t() to please checkpatch.pl.

This is a new audit feature which only grants processes with
CAP_AUDIT_CONTROL the ability to unset their loginuid. They cannot
directly set it from a valid uid to another valid uid. The ability to
unset the loginuid is nice because a priviledged task, like that of
container creation, can unset the loginuid and then priv is not needed
inside the container when a login daemon needs to set the loginuid.

If a task has CAP_AUDIT_CONTROL allow that task to unset their loginuid.
This would allow a child of that task to set their loginuid without
CAP_AUDIT_CONTROL. Thus when launching a new login daemon, a
priviledged helper would be able to unset the loginuid and then the
daemon, which may be malicious user facing, do not need priv to function

After trying to use this feature in Fedora we found the hard coding
policy like this into the kernel was a bad idea. Surprise surprise.
We ran into these problems because it was impossible to launch a
container as a logged in user and run a login daemon inside that container.
This reverts back to the old behavior before this option was added. The
option will be re-added in a userspace selectable manor such that
userspace can choose when it is and when it is not appropriate.

The audit_status structure was not designed with extensibility in mind.
Define a new AUDIT_SET_FEATURE message type which takes a new structure
of bits where things can be enabled/disabled/locked one at a time. This
structure should be able to grow in the future while maintaining forward
and backward compatibility (based loosly on the ideas from capabilities
and prctl)
This does not actually add any features, but is just infrastructure to
allow new on/off types of audit system features.

When the audit=1 kernel parameter is absent and auditd is not running,
AUDIT_USER_AVC messages are being silently discarded.
AUDIT_USER_AVC messages should be sent to userspace using printk(), as
mentioned in the commit message of 4a4cd633 ("AUDIT: Optimise the
audit-disabled case for discarding user messages").
When audit_enabled is 0, audit_receive_msg() discards all user messages
except for AUDIT_USER_AVC messages. However, audit_log_common_recv_msg()
refuses to allocate an audit_buffer if audit_enabled is 0. The fix is to
special case AUDIT_USER_AVC messages in both functions.
It looks like commit 50397bd1 ("[AUDIT] clean up audit_receive_msg()")
introduced this bug.

If a macro is only used within 2 times, and also its contents are
within 2 lines, recommend to expand it to shrink code line.
For our case, the macro is not portable either: some architectures'
assembler may use another character to mark newline in a macro (e.g.
'`' for arc), which will cause issue.
If still want to use macro and let it portable enough, it will also
need include additional header file (e.g "#include <linux/linkage.h>",
although it also need be fixed).

Using a spinlock to atomically increase a counter sounds wrong -- we've
atomic_t for this!
Also move 'seq_nr' to a different cache line than 'lock' to reduce cache
line trashing. This has the nice side effect of decreasing the size of
struct parallel_data from 192 to 128 bytes for a x86-64 build, e.g.
occupying only two instead of three cache lines.
Those changes results in a 5% performance increase on an IPsec test run
using pcrypt.
Btw. the seq_lock spinlock was never explicitly initialized -- one more
reason to get rid of it.

uprobe_copy_process() does nothing if the child shares ->mm with
the forking process, but there is a special case: CLONE_VFORK.
In this case it would be more correct to do dup_utask() but avoid
dup_xol(). This is not that important, the child should not unwind
its stack too much, this can corrupt the parent's stack, but at
least we need this to allow to ret-probe __vfork() itself.
Note: in theory, it would be better to check task_pt_regs(p)->sp
instead of CLONE_VFORK, we need to dup_utask() if and only if the
child can return from the function called by the parent. But this
needs the arch-dependant helper, and I think that nobody actually
does clone(same_stack, CLONE_VM).

This finally fixes the serious bug in uretprobes: a forked child
crashes if the parent called fork() with the pending ret probe.
Trivial test-case:
# perf probe -x /lib/libc.so.6 __fork%return
# perf record -e probe_libc:__fork perl -le 'fork || print "OK"'
(the child doesn't print "OK", it is killed by SIGSEGV)
If the child returns from the probed function it actually returns
to trampoline_vaddr, because it got the copy of parent's stack
mangled by prepare_uretprobe() when the parent entered this func.
It crashes because a) this address is not mapped and b) until the
previous change it doesn't have the proper->return_instances info.
This means that uprobe_copy_process() has to create xol_area which
has the trampoline slot, and its vaddr should be equal to parent's
xol_area->vaddr.
Unfortunately, uprobe_copy_process() can not simply do
__create_xol_area(child, xol_area->vaddr). This could actually work
but perf_event_mmap() doesn't expect the usage of foreign ->mm. So
we offload this to task_work_run(), and pass the argument via not
yet used utask->vaddr.
We know that this vaddr is fine for install_special_mapping(), the
necessary hole was recently "created" by dup_mmap() which skips the
parent's VM_DONTCOPY area, and nobody else could use the new mm.
Unfortunately, this also means that we can not handle the errors
properly, we obviously can not abort the already completed fork().
So we simply print the warning if GFP_KERNEL allocation (the only
possible reason) fails.

uprobe_copy_process() assumes that the new child doesn't need
->utask, it should be allocated by demand.
But this is not true if the forking task has the pending ret-
probes, the child should report them as well and thus it needs
the copy of parent's ->return_instances chain. Otherwise the
child crashes when it returns from the probed function.
Alternatively we could cleanup the child's stack, but this needs
per-arch changes and this is not what we want. At least systemtap
expects a .return in the child too.
Note: this change alone doesn't fix the problem, see the next
change.

Currently xol_add_vma() uses get_unmapped_area() for area->vaddr,
but the next patches need to use the fixed address. So this patch
adds the new "vaddr" argument to __create_xol_area() which should
be used as area->vaddr if it is nonzero.
xol_add_vma() doesn't bother to verify that the predefined addr is
not used, insert_vm_struct() should fail if find_vma_links() detects
the overlap with the existing vma.
Also, __create_xol_area() doesn't need __GFP_ZERO to allocate area.

No functional changes, preparation.
Extract the code which actually allocates/installs the new area
into the new helper, __create_xol_area().
While at it remove the unnecessary "ret = ENOMEM" and "ret = 0"
in xol_add_vma(), they both have no effect.

Preparation for the next patches.
Move the callsite of uprobe_copy_process() in copy_process() down
to the succesfull return. We do not care if copy_process() fails,
uprobe_free_utask() won't be called in this case so the wrong
->utask != NULL doesn't matter.
OTOH, with this change we know that copy_process() can't fail when
uprobe_copy_process() is called, the new task should either return
to user-mode or call do_exit(). This way uprobe_copy_process() can:
1. setup p->utask != NULL if necessary
2. setup uprobes_state.xol_area
3. use task_work_add(p)
Also, move the definition of uprobe_copy_process() down so that it
can see get_utask().

Currently we only optimize the context switch between two
contexts that have the same parent; this forgoes the
optimization between parent and child context, even though these
contexts could be equivalent too.

Oleg complained about the excessive 0-ing in perf_event_mmap_event(),
so try and be smarter about it while keeping it fairly fool proof and
avoid leaking random bits out to userspace.

perf_event_mmap_event() does kzalloc(PATH_MAX + sizeof(u64)) to
ensure we can align the size later. However this means that we
actually allocate PAGE_SIZE * 2 buffer, seems too much.
Change this code to allocate PATH_MAX==PAGE_SIZE bytes, but tell
d_path() to not use the last sizeof(u64) bytes.
Note: it is not clear why do we need __GFP_ZERO, see the next patch.
