2012-05-31c/r: prctl: extend PR_SET_MM to set up more mm_struct entriesCyrill Gorcunov
During checkpoint we dump whole process memory to a file and the dump includes process stack memory. But among stack data itself, the stack carries additional parameters such as command line arguments, environment data and auxiliary vector. So when we do restore procedure and once we've restored stack data itself we need to setup mm_struct::arg_start/end, env_start/end, so restored process would be able to find command line arguments and environment data it had at checkpoint time. The same applies to auxiliary vector. For this reason additional PR_SET_MM_(ARG_START | ARG_END | ENV_START | ENV_END | AUXV) codes are introduced.

2012-05-31syscalls, x86: add __NR_kcmp syscallCyrill Gorcunov
While doing the checkpoint-restore in the user space one need to determine whether various kernel objects (like mm_struct-s of file_struct-s) are shared between tasks and restore this state. The 2nd step can be solved by using appropriate CLONE_ flags and the unshare syscall, while there's currently no ways for solving the 1st one. One of the ways for checking whether two tasks share e.g. mm_struct is to provide some mm_struct ID of a task to its proc file, but showing such info considered to be not that good for security reasons. Thus after some debates we end up in conclusion that using that named 'comparison' syscall might be the best candidate. So here is it -- __NR_kcmp. It takes up to 5 arguments - the pids of the two tasks (which characteristics should be compared), the comparison type and (in case of comparison of files) two file descriptors. Lookups for pids are done in the caller's PID namespace only. At moment only x86 is supported and tested.

2012-05-31aio/vfs: cleanup of rw_copy_check_uvector() and compat_rw_copy_check_uvector()Christopher Yeoh
A cleanup of rw_copy_check_uvector and compat_rw_copy_check_uvector after changes made to support CMA in an earlier patch. Rather than having an additional check_access parameter to these functions, the first paramater type is overloaded to allow the caller to specify CHECK_IOVEC_ONLY which means check that the contents of the iovec are valid, but do not check the memory that they point to. This is used by process_vm_readv/writev where we need to validate that a iovec passed to the syscall is valid but do not want to check the memory that it points to at this point because it refers to an address space in another process.

2012-05-31mqueue: separate mqueue default value from maximum valueKOSAKI Motohiro
Commit b231cca4381e ("message queues: increase range limits") changed mqueue default value when attr parameter is specified NULL from hard coded value to fs.mqueue.{msg,msgsize}_max sysctl value. This made large side effect. When user need to use two mqueue applications 1) using !NULL attr parameter and it require big message size and 2) using NULL attr parameter and only need small size message, app (1) require to raise fs.mqueue.msgsize_max and app (2) consume large memory size even though it doesn't need. Doug Ledford propsed to switch back it to static hard coded value. However it also has a compatibility problem. Some applications might started depend on the default value is tunable. The solution is to separate default value from maximum value.

2012-05-31ipc/mqueue: update maximums for the mqueue subsystemDoug Ledford
Commit b231cca4381e ("message queues: increase range limits") changed the maximum size of a message in a message queue from INT_MAX to 8192*128. Unfortunately, we had customers that relied on a size much larger than 8192*128 on their production systems. After reviewing POSIX, we found that it is silent on the maximum message size. We did find a couple other areas in which it was not silent. Fix up the mqueue maximums so that the customer's system can continue to work, and document both the POSIX and real world requirements in ipc_namespace.h so that we don't have this issue crop back up. Also, commit 9cf18e1dd74cd0 ("ipc: HARD_MSGMAX should be higher not lower on 64bit") fiddled with HARD_MSGMAX without realizing that the number was intentionally in place to limit the msg queue depth to one that was small enough to kmalloc an array of pointers (hence why we divided 128k by sizeof(long)). If we wish to meet POSIX requirements, we have no choice but to change our allocation to a vmalloc instead (at least for the large queue size case). With that, it's possible to increase our allowed maximum to the POSIX requirements (or more if we choose).

2012-05-31ipc/mqueue: switch back to using non-max values on createDoug Ledford
Commit b231cca4381e ("message queues: increase range limits") changed how we create a queue that does not include an attr struct passed to open so that it creates the queue with whatever the maximum values are. However, if the admin has set the maximums to allow flexibility in creating a queue (aka, both a large size and large queue are allowed, but combined they create a queue too large for the RLIMIT_MSGQUEUE of the user), then attempts to create a queue without an attr struct will fail. Switch back to using acceptable defaults regardless of what the maximums are. Note: so far, we only know of a few applications that rely on this behavior (specifically, set the maximums in /proc, then run the application which calls mq_open() without passing in an attr struct, and the application expects the newly created message queue to have the maximum sizes that were set in /proc used on the mq_open() call, and all of those applications that we know of are actually part of regression test suites that were coded to do something like this: for size in 4096 65536 $((1024 * 1024)) $((16 * 1024 * 1024)); do echo $size > /proc/sys/fs/mqueue/msgsize_max mq_open || echo "Error opening mq with size $size" done These test suites that depend on any behavior like this are broken. The concept that programs should rely upon the system wide maximum in order to get their desired results instead of simply using a attr struct to specify what they want is fundamentally unfriendly programming practice for any multi-tasking OS. Fixing this will break those few apps that we know of (and those app authors recognize the brokenness of their code and the need to fix it). However, the following patch "mqueue: separate mqueue default value" allows a workaround in the form of new knobs for the default msg queue creation parameters for any software out there that we don't already know about that might rely on this behavior at the moment.

2012-05-31ipc/mqueue: cleanup definition names and locationsDoug Ledford
Since commit b231cca4381e ("message queues: increase range limits") on Oct 18, 2008, calls to mq_open() that did not pass in an attribute struct and expected to get default values for the size of the queue and the max message size now get the system wide maximums instead of hardwired defaults like they used to get. This was uncovered when one of the earlier patches in this patch set increased the default system wide maximums at the same time it increased the hard ceiling on the system wide maximums (a customer specifically needed the hard ceiling brought back up, the new ceiling that commit b231cca4381e introduced was too low for their production systems). By increasing the default maximums and not realising they were tied to any attempt to create a message queue without an attribute struct, I had inadvertently made it such that all message queue creation attempts without an attribute struct were failing because the new default maximums would create a queue that exceeded the default rlimit for message queue bytes. As a result, the system wide defaults were brought back down to their previous levels, and the system wide ceilings on the maximums were raised to meet the customer's needs. However, the fact that the no attribute struct behavior of mq_open() could be broken by changing the system wide maximums for message queues was seen as fundamentally broken itself. So we hardwired the no attribute case back like it used to be. But, then we realized that on the very off chance that some piece of software in the wild depended on that behavior, we could work around that issue by adding two new knobs to /proc that allowed setting the defaults for message queues created without an attr struct separately from the system wide maximums. What is not an option IMO is to leave the current behavior in place. No piece of software should ever rely on setting the system wide maximums in order to get a desired message queue. Such a reliance would be so fundamentally multitasking OS unfriendly as to not really be tolerable. Fortunately, we don't know of any software in the wild that uses this except for a regression test program that caught the issue in the first place. If there is though, we have made accommodations with the two new /proc knobs (and that's all the accommodations such fundamentally broken software can be allowed).. This patch: The various defines for minimums and maximums of the sysctl controllable mqueue values are scattered amongst different files and named inconsistently. Move them all into ipc_namespace.h and make them have consistent names. Additionally, make the number of queues per namespace also have a minimum and maximum and use the same sysctl function as the other two settable variables.

2012-05-31cpu: introduce clear_tasks_mm_cpumask() helperAnton Vorontsov
Many architectures clear tasks' mm_cpumask like this: read_lock(&tasklist_lock); for_each_process(p) { if (p->mm) cpumask_clear_cpu(cpu, mm_cpumask(p->mm)); } read_unlock(&tasklist_lock); Depending on the context, the code above may have several problems, such as: 1. Working with task->mm w/o getting mm or grabing the task lock is dangerous as ->mm might disappear (exit_mm() assigns NULL under task_lock(), so tasklist lock is not enough). 2. Checking for process->mm is not enough because process' main thread may exit or detach its mm via use_mm(), but other threads may still have a valid mm. This patch implements a small helper function that does things correctly, i.e.: 1. We take the task's lock while whe handle its mm (we can't use get_task_mm()/mmput() pair as mmput() might sleep); 2. To catch exited main thread case, we use find_lock_task_mm(), which walks up all threads and returns an appropriate task (with task lock held). Also, Per Peter Zijlstra's idea, now we don't grab tasklist_lock in the new helper, instead we take the rcu read lock. We can do this because the function is called after the cpu is taken down and marked offline, so no new tasks will get this cpu set in their mm mask.

2012-05-31cred: remove task_is_dead() from __task_cred() validationOleg Nesterov
Commit 8f92054e7ca1 ("CRED: Fix __task_cred()'s lockdep check and banner comment"): add the following validation condition: task->exit_state >= 0 to permit the access if the target task is dead and therefore unable to change its own credentials. OK, but afaics currently this can only help wait_task_zombie() which calls __task_cred() without rcu lock. Remove this validation and change wait_task_zombie() to use task_uid() instead. This means we do rcu_read_lock() only to shut up the lockdep, but we already do the same in, say, wait_task_stopped(). task_is_dead() should die, task->exit_state != 0 means that this task has passed exit_notify(), only do_wait-like code paths should use this. Unfortunately, we can't kill task_is_dead() right now, it has already acquired buggy users in drivers/staging. The fix already exists.

2012-05-31fat: introduce special inode for managing the FSINFO blockArtem Bityutskiy
This is patchset makes fatfs stop using the VFS '->write_super()' method for writing out the FSINFO block. The final goal is to get rid of the 'sync_supers()' kernel thread. This kernel thread wakes up every 5 seconds (by default) and calls '->write_super()' for all mounted file-systems. And the bad thing is that this is done even if all the superblocks are clean. Moreover, some file-systems do not even need this end they do not register the '->write_super()' method at all (e.g., btrfs). So 'sync_supers()' most often just generates useless wake-ups and wastes power. I am trying to make all file-systems independent of '->write_super()' and plan to remove 'sync_supers()' and '->write_super' completely once there are no more users. The '->write_supers()' method is mostly used by baroque file-systems like hfs, udf, etc. Modern file-systems like btrfs and xfs do not use it. This justifies removing this stuff from VFS completely and make every FS self-manage own superblock. Tested with xfstests. This patch: Preparation for further changes. It introduces a special inode ('fsinfo_inode') in FAT file-system which we'll later use for managing the FSINFO block. Note, this there is already one special inode ('fat_inode') which is used for managing the FAT tables. Introduce new 'MSDOS_FSINFO_INO' constant for this special inode. It is safe to do because FAT file-system does not store inode numbers on the media but generates them run-time. I've also cleaned up the comment to existing 'MSDOS_ROOT_INO' constant, while on it.

2012-05-31vsprintf: further optimize decimal conversionDenys Vlasenko
Previous code was using optimizations which were developed to work well even on narrow-word CPUs (by today's standards). But Linux runs only on 32-bit and wider CPUs. We can use that. First: using 32x32->64 multiply and trivial 32-bit shift, we can correctly divide by 10 much larger numbers, and thus we can print groups of 9 digits instead of groups of 5 digits. Next: there are two algorithms to print larger numbers. One is generic: divide by 1000000000 and repeatedly print groups of (up to) 9 digits. It's conceptually simple, but requires an (unsigned long long) / 1000000000 division. Second algorithm splits 64-bit unsigned long long into 16-bit chunks, manipulates them cleverly and generates groups of 4 decimal digits. It so happens that it does NOT require long long division. If long is > 32 bits, division of 64-bit values is relatively easy, and we will use the first algorithm. If long long is > 64 bits (strange architecture with VERY large long long), second algorithm can't be used, and we again use the first one. Else (if long is 32 bits and long long is 64 bits) we use second one. And third: there is a simple optimization which takes fast path not only for zero as was done before, but for all one-digit numbers. In all tested cases new code is faster than old one, in many cases by 30%, in few cases by more than 50% (for example, on x86-32, conversion of 12345678). Code growth is ~0 in 32-bit case and ~130 bytes in 64-bit case. This patch is based upon an original from Michal Nazarewicz.

2012-05-31net/mlx4_core: Fix number of EQs used in ICM initialisationMarcel Apfelbaum
In SRIOV mode, the number of EQs used when computing the total ICM size was incorrect. To fix this, we do the following: 1. We add a new structure to mlx4_dev, mlx4_phys_caps, to contain physical HCA capabilities. The PPF uses the phys capabilities when it computes things like ICM size. The dev_caps structure will then contain the paravirtualized values, making bookkeeping much easier in SRIOV mode. We add a structure rather than a single parameter because there will be other fields in the phys_caps. The first field we add to the mlx4_phys_caps structure is num_phys_eqs. 2. In INIT_HCA, when running in SRIOV mode, the "log_num_eqs" parameter passed to the FW is the number of EQs per VF/PF; each function (PF or VF) has this number of EQs available. However, the total number of EQs which must be allowed for in the ICM is (1 << log_num_eqs) * (#VFs + #PFs). Rather than compute this quantity, we allocate ICM space for 1024 EQs (which is the device maximum number of EQs, and which is the value we place in the mlx4_phys_caps structure).

2012-05-30fsnotify: handle subfiles' perm eventsNaohiro Aota
Recently I'm working on fanotify and found the following strange behaviors. I wrote a program to set fanotify_mark on "/tmp/block" and FAN_DENY all events notified. fanotify_mask = FAN_ALL_EVENTS | FAN_ALL_PERM_EVENTS | FAN_EVENT_ON_CHILD: $ cd /tmp/block; cat foo cat: foo: Operation not permitted Operation on the file is blocked as expected. But, fanotify_mask = FAN_ALL_PERM_EVENTS | FAN_EVENT_ON_CHILD: $ cd /tmp/block; cat foo aaa It's not blocked anymore. This is confusing behavior. Also reading commit "fsnotify: call fsnotify_parent in perm events", it seems like fsnotify should handle subfiles' perm events as well as the other notify events. With this patch, regardless of FAN_ALL_EVENTS set or not: $ cd /tmp/block; cat foo cat: foo: Operation not permitted Operation on the file is now blocked properly. FS_OPEN_PERM and FS_ACCESS_PERM are not listed on FS_EVENTS_POSS_ON_CHILD. Due to fsnotify_inode_watches_children() check, if you only specify only these events as fsnotify_mask, you don't get subfiles' perm events notified. This patch add the events to FS_EVENTS_POSS_ON_CHILD to get them notified even if only these events are specified to fsnotify_mask.

2012-05-30sched/nohz: Fix rq->cpu_load calculations some morePeter Zijlstra
Follow up on commit 556061b00 ("sched/nohz: Fix rq->cpu_load[] calculations") since while that fixed the busy case it regressed the mostly idle case. Add a callback from the nohz exit to also age the rq->cpu_load[] array. This closes the hole where either there was no nohz load balance pass during the nohz, or there was a 'significant' amount of idle time between the last nohz balance and the nohz exit. So we'll update unconditionally from the tick to not insert any accidental 0 load periods while busy, and we try and catch up from nohz idle balance and nohz exit. Both these are still prone to missing a jiffy, but that has always been the case.

Also strengthen the disrecommendation of the protocol mangling while we're at it.

2012-05-30watchdog: Add support for dynamically allocated watchdog_device structsHans de Goede
If a driver's watchdog_device struct is part of a dynamically allocated struct (which it often will be), merely locking the module is not enough, even with a drivers module locked, the driver can be unbound from the device, examples: 1) The root user can unbind it through sysfd 2) The i2c bus master driver being unloaded for an i2c watchdog I will gladly admit that these are corner cases, but we still need to handle them correctly. The fix for this consists of 2 parts: 1) Add ref / unref operations, so that the driver can refcount the struct holding the watchdog_device struct and delay freeing it until any open filehandles referring to it are closed 2) Most driver operations will do IO on the device and the driver should not do any IO on the device after it has been unbound. Rather then letting each driver deal with this internally, it is better to ensure at the watchdog core level that no operations (other then unref) will get called after the driver has called watchdog_unregister_device().

2012-05-30watchdog: Add Locking supportHans de Goede
This patch fixes some potential multithreading issues, despite only allowing one process to open the /dev/watchdog device, we can still get called multiple times at the same time, since a program could be using thread, or could share the fd after a fork. This causes 2 potential problems: 1) watchdog_start / open do an unlocked test_n_set / test_n_clear, if these 2 race, the watchdog could be stopped while the active bit indicates it is running or visa versa. 2) Most watchdog_dev drivers probably assume that only one watchdog-op will get called at a time, this is not necessary true atm.
