Send per-tgid data only once during exit of a thread group instead of once
with each member thread exit.
Currently, when a thread exits, besides its per-tid data, the per-tgid data
of its thread group is also sent out, if its thread group is non-empty.
The per-tgid data sent consists of the sum of per-tid stats for all
*remaining* threads of the thread group.
This patch modifies this sending in two ways:
- the per-tgid data is sent only when the last thread of a thread group
exits. This cuts down heavily on the overhead of sending/receiving
per-tgid data, especially when other exploiters of the taskstats
interface aren't interested in per-tgid stats
- the semantics of the per-tgid data sent are changed. Instead of being
the sum of per-tid data for remaining threads, the value now sent is the
true total accumalated statistics for all threads that are/were part of
the thread group.
The patch also addresses a minor issue where failure of one accounting
subsystem to fill in the taskstats structure was causing the send of
taskstats to not be sent at all.
The patch has been tested for stability and run cerberus for over 4 hours
on an SMP.

Export I/O delays seen by a task through /proc/<tgid>/stats for use in top
etc.
Note that delays for I/O done for swapping in pages (swapin I/O) is clubbed
together with all other I/O here (this is not the case in the netlink
interface where the swapin I/O is kept distinct)

Create a "taskstats" interface based on generic netlink (NETLINK_GENERIC
family), for getting statistics of tasks and thread groups during their
lifetime and when they exit. The interface is intended for use by multiple
accounting packages though it is being created in the context of delay
accounting.
This patch creates the interface without populating the fields of the data
that is sent to the user in response to a command or upon the exit of a task.
Each accounting package interested in using taskstats has to provide an
additional patch to add its stats to the common structure.

Unlike earlier iterations of the delay accounting patches, now delays are only
collected for the actual I/O waits rather than try and cover the delays seen
in I/O submission paths.
Account separately for block I/O delays incurred as a result of swapin page
faults whose frequency can be affected by the task/process' rss limit. Hence
swapin delays can act as feedback for rss limit changes independent of I/O
priority changes.

Initialization code related to collection of per-task "delay" statistics which
measure how long it had to wait for cpu, sync block io, swapping etc. The
collection of statistics and the interface are in other patches. This patch
sets up the data structures and allows the statistics collection to be
disabled through a kernel boot parameter.

Got a customer bug report (https://bugzilla.novell.com/190296) about kernel
symbols longer than 127 characters which end up in a string buffer that is
not NULL terminated, leading to garbage in /proc/kallsyms. Using strlcpy
prevents this from happening, even though such symbols still won't come out
right.
A better fix would be to not use a fixed-size buffer, but it's probably not
worth the trouble. (Modversion'ed symbols even have a length limit of 60.)

As a result of 894673ee6122a3ce1958e1fe096901ba5356a96b, the ARM
architecture is more or less unbuildable - only one defconfig appears
to build, with all others erroring out with:

/home/rmk/git/linux-2.6-rmk/include/linux/root_dev.h:7: warning: implicit declaration of function `MKDEV'
...
Essentially, root_dev.h uses MKDEV and dev_t, but does not include any
headers which provide either of these definitions. The reason it worked
previously is that linux/tty.h just happened to include the required
headers for linux/root_dev.h.
