2017-11-02License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

2017-09-07sched/cpuset/pm: Fix cpuset vs. suspend-resume bugsPeter Zijlstra
Cpusets vs. suspend-resume is _completely_ broken. And it got noticed because it now resulted in non-cpuset usage breaking too. On suspend cpuset_cpu_inactive() doesn't call into cpuset_update_active_cpus() because it doesn't want to move tasks about, there is no need, all tasks are frozen and won't run again until after we've resumed everything. But this means that when we finally do call into cpuset_update_active_cpus() after resuming the last frozen cpu in cpuset_cpu_active(), the top_cpuset will not have any difference with the cpu_active_mask and this it will not in fact do _anything_. So the cpuset configuration will not be restored. This was largely hidden because we would unconditionally create identity domains and mobile users would not in fact use cpusets much. And servers what do use cpusets tend to not suspend-resume much. An addition problem is that we'd not in fact wait for the cpuset work to finish before resuming the tasks, allowing spurious migrations outside of the specified domains. Fix the rebuild by introducing cpuset_force_rebuild() and fix the ordering with cpuset_wait_for_hotplug().

2017-06-15ACPI / PM: Ignore spurious SCI wakeups from suspend-to-idleRafael J. Wysocki
The ACPI SCI (System Control Interrupt) is set up as a wakeup IRQ during suspend-to-idle transitions and, consequently, any events signaled through it wake up the system from that state. However, on some systems some of the events signaled via the ACPI SCI while suspended to idle should not cause the system to wake up. In fact, quite often they should just be discarded. Arguably, systems should not resume entirely on such events, but in order to decide which events really should cause the system to resume and which are spurious, it is necessary to resume up to the point when ACPI SCIs are actually handled and processed, which is after executing dpm_resume_noirq() in the system resume path. For this reasons, add a loop around freeze_enter() in which the platforms can process events signaled via multiplexed IRQ lines like the ACPI SCI and add suspend-to-idle hooks that can be used for this purpose to struct platform_freeze_ops. In the ACPI case, the ->wake hook is used for checking if the SCI has triggered while suspended and deferring the interrupt-induced system wakeup until the events signaled through it are actually processed sufficiently to decide whether or not the system should resume. In turn, the ->sync hook allows all of the relevant event queues to be flushed so as to prevent events from being missed due to race conditions. In addition to that, some ACPI code processing wakeup events needs to be modified to use the "hard" version of wakeup triggers, so that it will cause a system resume to happen on device-induced wakeup events even if the "soft" mechanism to prevent the system from suspending is not enabled. However, to preserve the existing behavior with respect to suspend-to-RAM, this only is done in the suspend-to-idle case and only if an SCI has occurred while suspended. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2016-10-07oom, suspend: fix oom_killer_disable vs. pm suspend properlyMichal Hocko
Commit 74070542099c ("oom, suspend: fix oom_reaper vs. oom_killer_disable race") has workaround an existing race between oom_killer_disable and oom_reaper by adding another round of try_to_freeze_tasks after the oom killer was disabled. This was the easiest thing to do for a late 4.7 fix. Let's fix it properly now. After "oom: keep mm of the killed task available" we no longer have to call exit_oom_victim from the oom reaper because we have stable mm available and hide the oom_reaped mm by MMF_OOM_SKIP flag. So let's remove exit_oom_victim and the race described in the above commit doesn't exist anymore if. Unfortunately this alone is not sufficient for the oom_killer_disable usecase because now we do not have any reliable way to reach exit_oom_victim (the victim might get stuck on a way to exit for an unbounded amount of time). OOM killer can cope with that by checking mm flags and move on to another victim but we cannot do the same for oom_killer_disable as we would lose the guarantee of no further interference of the victim with the rest of the system. What we can do instead is to cap the maximum time the oom_killer_disable waits for victims. The only current user of this function (pm suspend) already has a concept of timeout for back off so we can reuse the same value there. Let's drop set_freezable for the oom_reaper kthread because it is no longer needed as the reaper doesn't wake or thaw any processes.

2016-06-24oom, suspend: fix oom_reaper vs. oom_killer_disable raceMichal Hocko
Tetsuo has reported the following potential oom_killer_disable vs. oom_reaper race: (1) freeze_processes() starts freezing user space threads. (2) Somebody (maybe a kenrel thread) calls out_of_memory(). (3) The OOM killer calls mark_oom_victim() on a user space thread P1 which is already in __refrigerator(). (4) oom_killer_disable() sets oom_killer_disabled = true. (5) P1 leaves __refrigerator() and enters do_exit(). (6) The OOM reaper calls exit_oom_victim(P1) before P1 can call exit_oom_victim(P1). (7) oom_killer_disable() returns while P1 not yet finished (8) P1 perform IO/interfere with the freezer. This situation is unfortunate. We cannot move oom_killer_disable after all the freezable kernel threads are frozen because the oom victim might depend on some of those kthreads to make a forward progress to exit so we could deadlock. It is also far from trivial to teach the oom_reaper to not call exit_oom_victim() because then we would lose a guarantee of the OOM killer and oom_killer_disable forward progress because exit_mm->mmput might block and never call exit_oom_victim. It seems the easiest way forward is to workaround this race by calling try_to_freeze_tasks again after oom_killer_disable. This will make sure that all the tasks are frozen or it bails out.

2015-02-11oom, PM: make OOM detection in the freezer path racelessMichal Hocko
Commit 5695be142e20 ("OOM, PM: OOM killed task shouldn't escape PM suspend") has left a race window when OOM killer manages to note_oom_kill after freeze_processes checks the counter. The race window is quite small and really unlikely and partial solution deemed sufficient at the time of submission. Tejun wasn't happy about this partial solution though and insisted on a full solution. That requires the full OOM and freezer's task freezing exclusion, though. This is done by this patch which introduces oom_sem RW lock and turns oom_killer_disable() into a full OOM barrier. oom_killer_disabled check is moved from the allocation path to the OOM level and we take oom_sem for reading for both the check and the whole OOM invocation. oom_killer_disable() takes oom_sem for writing so it waits for all currently running OOM killer invocations. Then it disable all the further OOMs by setting oom_killer_disabled and checks for any oom victims. Victims are counted via mark_tsk_oom_victim resp. unmark_oom_victim. The last victim wakes up all waiters enqueued by oom_killer_disable(). Therefore this function acts as the full OOM barrier. The page fault path is covered now as well although it was assumed to be safe before. As per Tejun, "We used to have freezing points deep in file system code which may be reacheable from page fault." so it would be better and more robust to not rely on freezing points here. Same applies to the memcg OOM killer. out_of_memory tells the caller whether the OOM was allowed to trigger and the callers are supposed to handle the situation. The page allocation path simply fails the allocation same as before. The page fault path will retry the fault (more on that later) and Sysrq OOM trigger will simply complain to the log. Normally there wouldn't be any unfrozen user tasks after try_to_freeze_tasks so the function will not block. But if there was an OOM killer racing with try_to_freeze_tasks and the OOM victim didn't finish yet then we have to wait for it. This should complete in a finite time, though, because - the victim cannot loop in the page fault handler (it would die on the way out from the exception) - it cannot loop in the page allocator because all the further allocation would fail and __GFP_NOFAIL allocations are not acceptable at this stage - it shouldn't be blocked on any locks held by frozen tasks (try_to_freeze expects lockless context) and kernel threads and work queues are not frozen yet Signed-off-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.cz> Suggested-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Cc: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Cc: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Cc: Cong Wang <xiyou.wangcong@gmail.com> Cc: "Rafael J.

2014-10-21OOM, PM: OOM killed task shouldn't escape PM suspendMichal Hocko
PM freezer relies on having all tasks frozen by the time devices are getting frozen so that no task will touch them while they are getting frozen. But OOM killer is allowed to kill an already frozen task in order to handle OOM situtation. In order to protect from late wake ups OOM killer is disabled after all tasks are frozen. This, however, still keeps a window open when a killed task didn't manage to die by the time freeze_processes finishes. Reduce the race window by checking all tasks after OOM killer has been disabled. This is still not race free completely unfortunately because oom_killer_disable cannot stop an already ongoing OOM killer so a task might still wake up from the fridge and get killed without freeze_processes noticing. Full synchronization of OOM and freezer is, however, too heavy weight for this highly unlikely case. Introduce and check oom_kills counter which gets incremented early when the allocator enters __alloc_pages_may_oom path and only check all the tasks if the counter changes during the freezing attempt. The counter is updated so early to reduce the race window since allocator checked oom_killer_disabled which is set by PM-freezing code. A false positive will push the PM-freezer into a slow path but that is not a big deal. Changes since v1 - push the re-check loop out of freeze_processes into check_frozen_processes and invert the condition to make the code more readable as per Rafael Fixes: f660daac474c6f (oom: thaw threads if oom killed thread is frozen before deferring) Cc: 3.2+ <stable@vger.kernel.org> # 3.2+ Signed-off-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2014-07-15PM / sleep: Fix request_firmware() error at resumeTakashi Iwai
The commit [247bc037: PM / Sleep: Mitigate race between the freezer and request_firmware()] introduced the finer state control, but it also leads to a new bug; for example, a bug report regarding the firmware loading of intel BT device at suspend/resume: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=873790 The root cause seems to be a small window between the process resume and the clear of usermodehelper lock. The request_firmware() function checks the UMH lock and gives up when it's in UMH_DISABLE state. This is for avoiding the invalid f/w loading during suspend/resume phase. The problem is, however, that usermodehelper_enable() is called at the end of thaw_processes(). Thus, a thawed process in between can kick off the f/w loader code path (in this case, via btusb_setup_intel()) even before the call of usermodehelper_enable(). Then usermodehelper_read_trylock() returns an error and request_firmware() spews WARN_ON() in the end. This oneliner patch fixes the issue just by setting to UMH_FREEZING state again before restarting tasks, so that the call of request_firmware() will be blocked until the end of this function instead of returning an error.

Adds trace events that give finer resolution into suspend/resume. These events are graphed in the timelines generated by the analyze_suspend.py script. They represent large areas of time consumed that are typical to suspend and resume. The event is triggered by calling the function "trace_suspend_resume" with three arguments: a string (the name of the event to be displayed in the timeline), an integer (case specific number, such as the power state or cpu number), and a boolean (where true is used to denote the start of the timeline event, and false to denote the end). The suspend_resume trace event reproduces the data that the machine_suspend trace event did, so the latter has been removed.

2013-07-30freezer: set PF_SUSPEND_TASK flag on tasks that call freeze_processesColin Cross
Calling freeze_processes sets a global flag that will cause any process that calls try_to_freeze to enter the refrigerator. It skips sending a signal to the current task, but if the current task ever hits try_to_freeze, all threads will be frozen and the system will deadlock. Set a new flag, PF_SUSPEND_TASK, on the task that calls freeze_processes. The flag notifies the freezer that the thread is involved in suspend and should not be frozen. Also add a WARN_ON in thaw_processes if the caller does not have the PF_SUSPEND_TASK flag set to catch if a different task calls thaw_processes than the one that called freeze_processes, leaving a task with PF_SUSPEND_TASK permanently set on it. Threads that spawn off a task with PF_SUSPEND_TASK set (which swsusp does) will also have PF_SUSPEND_TASK set, preventing them from freezing while they are helping with suspend, but they need to be dead by the time suspend is triggered, otherwise they may run when userspace is expected to be frozen. Add a WARN_ON in thaw_processes if more than one thread has the PF_SUSPEND_TASK flag set.

2013-02-09suspend: enable freeze timeout configuration through sysLi Fei
At present, the value of timeout for freezing is 20s, which is meaningless in case that one thread is frozen with mutex locked and another thread is trying to lock the mutex, as this time of freezing will fail unavoidably. And if there is no new wakeup event registered, the system will waste at most 20s for such meaningless trying of freezing. With this patch, the value of timeout can be configured to smaller value, so such meaningless trying of freezing will be aborted in earlier time, and later freezing can be also triggered in earlier time. And more power will be saved. In normal case on mobile phone, it costs real little time to freeze processes. On some platform, it only costs about 20ms to freeze user space processes and 10ms to freeze kernel freezable threads.

2012-10-26freezer: change ptrace_stop/do_signal_stop to use freezable_schedule()Oleg Nesterov
try_to_freeze_tasks() and cgroup_freezer rely on scheduler locks to ensure that a task doing STOPPED/TRACED -> RUNNING transition can't escape freezing. This mostly works, but ptrace_stop() does not necessarily call schedule(), it can change task->state back to RUNNING and check freezing() without any lock/barrier in between. We could add the necessary barrier, but this patch changes ptrace_stop() and do_signal_stop() to use freezable_schedule(). This fixes the race, freezer_count() and freezer_should_skip() carefully avoid the race. And this simplifies the code, try_to_freeze_tasks/update_if_frozen no longer need to use task_is_stopped_or_traced() checks with the non trivial assumptions. We can rely on the mechanism which was specially designed to mark the sleeping task as "frozen enough". v2: As Tejun pointed out, we can also change get_signal_to_deliver() and move try_to_freeze() up before 'relock' label.

2012-03-28PM / Sleep: Mitigate race between the freezer and request_firmware()Rafael J. Wysocki
There is a race condition between the freezer and request_firmware() such that if request_firmware() is run on one CPU and freeze_processes() is run on another CPU and usermodehelper_disable() called by it succeeds to grab umhelper_sem for writing before usermodehelper_read_trylock() called from request_firmware() acquires it for reading, the request_firmware() will fail and trigger a WARN_ON() complaining that it was called at a wrong time. However, in fact, it wasn't called at a wrong time and freeze_processes() simply happened to be executed simultaneously. To avoid this race, at least in some cases, modify usermodehelper_read_trylock() so that it doesn't fail if the freezing of tasks has just started and hasn't been completed yet. Instead, during the freezing of tasks, it will try to freeze the task that has called it so that it can wait until user space is thawed without triggering the scary warning. For this purpose, change usermodehelper_disabled so that it can take three different values, UMH_ENABLED (0), UMH_FREEZING and UMH_DISABLED. The first one means that usermode helpers are enabled, the last one means "hard disable" (i.e. the system is not ready for usermode helpers to be used) and the second one is reserved for the freezer. Namely, when freeze_processes() is started, it sets usermodehelper_disabled to UMH_FREEZING which tells usermodehelper_read_trylock() that it shouldn't fail just yet and should call try_to_freeze() if woken up and cannot return immediately. This way all freezable tasks that happen to call request_firmware() right before freeze_processes() is started and lose the race for umhelper_sem with it will be frozen and will sleep until thaw_processes() unsets usermodehelper_disabled. [For the non-freezable callers of request_firmware() the race for umhelper_sem against freeze_processes() is unfortunately unavoidable.] Reported-by: Stephen Boyd <sboyd@codeaurora.org> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

However, it is always called right before freeze_processes() and usermodehelper_enable() is always called right after thaw_processes(). For this reason, to avoid code duplication and to make the connection between usermodehelper_disable() and the freezer more visible, make freeze_processes() call it and remove the direct usermodehelper_disable() and usermodehelper_enable() calls from all suspend/hibernation code paths.

2012-02-04PM / Freezer: Thaw only kernel threads if freezing of kernel threads failsSrivatsa S. Bhat
If freezing of kernel threads fails, we are expected to automatically thaw tasks in the error recovery path. However, at times, we encounter situations in which we would like the automatic error recovery path to thaw only the kernel threads, because we want to be able to do some more cleanup before we thaw userspace. Something like: error = freeze_kernel_threads(); if (error) { /* Do some cleanup */ /* Only then thaw userspace tasks*/ thaw_processes(); } An example of such a situation is where we freeze/thaw filesystems during suspend/hibernation. There, if freezing of kernel threads fails, we would like to thaw the frozen filesystems before thawing the userspace tasks. So, modify freeze_kernel_threads() to thaw only kernel threads in case of freezing failure. And change suspend_freeze_processes() accordingly. (At the same time, let us also get rid of the rather cryptic usage of the conditional operator (:?) in that function.)

Commit 2aede851ddf08666f68ffc17be446420e9d2a056 PM / Hibernate: Freeze kernel threads after preallocating memory introduced a mechanism by which kernel threads were frozen after the preallocation of hibernate image memory to avoid problems with frozen kernel threads not responding to memory freeing requests. However, it overlooked the s2disk code path in which the SNAPSHOT_CREATE_IMAGE ioctl was run directly after SNAPSHOT_FREE, which caused freeze_workqueues_begin() to BUG(), because it saw that worqueues had been already frozen. Although in principle this issue might be addressed by removing the relevant BUG_ON() from freeze_workqueues_begin(), that would reintroduce the very problem that commit 2aede851ddf08666f68ffc17be4 attempted to avoid into that particular code path. For this reason, to fix the issue at hand, introduce thaw_kernel_threads() and make the SNAPSHOT_FREE ioctl execute it. Special thanks to Srivatsa S. Bhat for detailed analysis of the problem.

2011-11-21freezer: make freezing() test freeze conditions in effect instead of TIF_FREEZETejun Heo
Using TIF_FREEZE for freezing worked when there was only single freezing condition (the PM one); however, now there is also the cgroup_freezer and single bit flag is getting clumsy. thaw_processes() is already testing whether cgroup freezing in in effect to avoid thawing tasks which were frozen by both PM and cgroup freezers. This is racy (nothing prevents race against cgroup freezing) and fragile. A much simpler way is to test actual freeze conditions from freezing() - ie. directly test whether PM or cgroup freezing is in effect. This patch adds variables to indicate whether and what type of freezing conditions are in effect and reimplements freezing() such that it directly tests whether any of the two freezing conditions is active and the task should freeze. On fast path, freezing() is still very cheap - it only tests system_freezing_cnt. This makes the clumsy dancing aroung TIF_FREEZE unnecessary and freeze/thaw operations more usual - updating state variables for the new state and nudging target tasks so that they notice the new state and comply. As long as the nudging happens after state update, it's race-free. * This allows use of freezing() in freeze_task(). Replace the open coded tests with freezing(). * p != current test is added to warning printing conditions in try_to_freeze_tasks() failure path. This is necessary as freezing() is now true for the task which initiated freezing too. -v2: Oleg pointed out that re-freezing FROZEN cgroup could increment system_freezing_cnt. Fixed.

2011-11-21freezer: make freezing indicate freeze condition in effectTejun Heo
Currently freezing (TIF_FREEZE) and frozen (PF_FROZEN) states are interlocked - freezing is set to request freeze and when the task actually freezes, it clears freezing and sets frozen. This interlocking makes things more complex than necessary - freezing doesn't mean there's freezing condition in effect and frozen doesn't match the task actually entering and leaving frozen state (it's cleared by the thawing task). This patch makes freezing indicate that freeze condition is in effect. A task enters and stays frozen if freezing. This makes PF_FROZEN manipulation done only by the task itself and prevents wakeup from __thaw_task() leaking outside of refrigerator. The only place which needs to tell freezing && !frozen is try_to_freeze_task() to whine about tasks which don't enter frozen. It's updated to test the condition explicitly. With the change, frozen() state my linger after __thaw_task() until the task wakes up and exits fridge. This can trigger BUG_ON() in update_if_frozen(). Work it around by testing freezing() && frozen() instead of frozen(). -v2: Oleg pointed out missing re-check of freezing() when trying to clear FROZEN and possible spurious BUG_ON() trigger in update_if_frozen().

Freezer synchronization is needlessly complicated - it's by no means a hot path and the priority is staying unintrusive and safe. This patch makes it simply use a dedicated lock instead of piggy-backing on task_lock() and playing with memory barriers. On the failure path of try_to_freeze_tasks(), locking is moved from it to cancel_freezing(). This makes the frozen() test racy but the race here is a non-issue as the warning is printed for tasks which failed to enter frozen for 20 seconds and race on PF_FROZEN at the last moment doesn't change anything.

2011-10-16PM / Hibernate: Freeze kernel threads after preallocating memoryRafael J. Wysocki
There is a problem with the current ordering of hibernate code which leads to deadlocks in some filesystems' memory shrinkers. Namely, some filesystems use freezable kernel threads that are inactive when the hibernate memory preallocation is carried out. Those same filesystems use memory shrinkers that may be triggered by the hibernate memory preallocation. If those memory shrinkers wait for the frozen kernel threads, the hibernate process deadlocks (this happens with XFS, for one example). Apparently, it is not technically viable to redesign the filesystems in question to avoid the situation described above, so the only possible solution of this issue is to defer the freezing of kernel threads until the hibernate memory preallocation is done, which is implemented by this change. Unfortunately, this requires the memory preallocation to be done before the "prepare" stage of device freeze, so after this change the only way drivers can allocate additional memory for their freeze routines in a clean way is to use PM notifiers.

The task being frozen may wake up and not see TIF_FREEZE while the freezer fails to notice the transition and believes the task is still stopped. This patch fixes the race by making freeze_task() always go through fake_signal_wake_up() for applicable tasks.

2010-03-26Freezer: Fix buggy resume test for tasks frozen with cgroup freezerMatt Helsley
When the cgroup freezer is used to freeze tasks we do not want to thaw those tasks during resume. Currently we test the cgroup freezer state of the resuming tasks to see if the cgroup is FROZEN. If so then we don't thaw the task. However, the FREEZING state also indicates that the task should remain frozen. This also avoids a problem pointed out by Oren Ladaan: the freezer state transition from FREEZING to FROZEN is updated lazily when userspace reads or writes the freezer.state file in the cgroup filesystem. This means that resume will thaw tasks in cgroups which should be in the FROZEN state if there is no read/write of the freezer.state file to trigger this transition before suspend. NOTE: Another "simple" solution would be to always update the cgroup freezer state during resume. However it's a bad choice for several reasons: Updating the cgroup freezer state is somewhat expensive because it requires walking all the tasks in the cgroup and checking if they are each frozen. Worse, this could easily make resume run in N^2 time where N is the number of tasks in the cgroup. Finally, updating the freezer state from this code path requires trickier locking because of the way locks must be ordered. Instead of updating the freezer state we rely on the fact that lazy updates only manage the transition from FREEZING to FROZEN. We know that a cgroup with the FREEZING state may actually be FROZEN so test for that state too. This makes sense in the resume path even for partially-frozen cgroups -- those that really are FREEZING but not FROZEN.
