stat structures contain a size prefix. In our twstat messages
we were including the size of the size prefix in the prefix, which is not
what the protocol wants, and Inferno servers would complain.

bsg's SG_IO doesn't work on 32-bit userspace and 64-bit kernelspace.
The problem is that both sg and bsg drivers use SG_IO
ioctl. sg_ioctl_trans() does 32/64-bit conversion even against bsg
header. It messes up bsg header. bsg driver gets garbage.
This patch fixes sg_ioctl_trans to handle only sg header (struct
sg_io_hdr).

As noticed by Jon Masters <jonathan@jonmasters.org>, the conntrack hash
size is global and not per namespace, but modifiable at runtime through
/sys/module/nf_conntrack/hashsize. Changing the hash size will only
resize the hash in the current namespace however, so other namespaces
will use an invalid hash size. This can cause crashes when enlarging
the hashsize, or false negative lookups when shrinking it.
Move the hash size into the per-namespace data and only use the global
hash size to initialize the per-namespace value when instanciating a
new namespace. Additionally restrict hash resizing to init_net for
now as other namespaces are not handled currently.

nf_conntrack_cachep is currently shared by all netns instances, but
because of SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU special semantics, this is wrong.
If we use a shared slab cache, one object can instantly flight between
one hash table (netns ONE) to another one (netns TWO), and concurrent
reader (doing a lookup in netns ONE, 'finding' an object of netns TWO)
can be fooled without notice, because no RCU grace period has to be
observed between object freeing and its reuse.
We dont have this problem with UDP/TCP slab caches because TCP/UDP
hashtables are global to the machine (and each object has a pointer to
its netns).
If we use per netns conntrack hash tables, we also *must* use per netns
conntrack slab caches, to guarantee an object can not escape from one
namespace to another one.

As discovered by Jon Masters <jonathan@jonmasters.org>, the "untracked"
conntrack, which is located in the data section, might be accidentally
freed when a new namespace is instantiated while the untracked conntrack
is attached to a skb because the reference count it re-initialized.
The best fix would be to use a seperate untracked conntrack per
namespace since it includes a namespace pointer. Unfortunately this is
not possible without larger changes since the namespace is not easily
available everywhere we need it. For now move the untracked conntrack
initialization to the init_net setup function to make sure the reference
count is not re-initialized and handle cleanup in the init_net cleanup
function to make sure namespaces can exit properly while the untracked
conntrack is in use in other namespaces.

A DVB demultiplexer device can be used to set up either a PES filter or
a section filter. In the former case, the ts field of the feed union of
struct dmxdev_filter is used, in the latter case the sec field of the
same union is used.
The ts field is a struct list_head, and is currently initialized in the
open() method of the demux device. When for a given demuxer a section
filter is set up, the sec field is played with, thus if a PES filter
needs to be set up after that the ts field will be corrupted, causing a
kernel oops.
This fix moves the list head initialization to
dvb_dmxdev_pes_filter_set(), so that the ts field is properly
initialized every time a PES filter is set up.

When CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING and CONFIG_CGROUP_CPUACCT are
enabled we can call cpuacct_update_stats with values much larger
than percpu_counter_batch. This means the call to
percpu_counter_add will always add to the global count which is
protected by a spinlock and we end up with a global spinlock in
the scheduler.
Based on an idea by KOSAKI Motohiro, this patch scales the batch
value by cputime_one_jiffy such that we have the same batch
limit as we would if CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING was disabled.
His patch did this once at boot but that initialisation happened
too early on PowerPC (before time_init) and it was never updated
at runtime as a result of a hotplug cpu add/remove.
This patch instead scales percpu_counter_batch by
cputime_one_jiffy at runtime, which keeps the batch correct even
after cpu hotplug operations. We cap it at INT_MAX in case of
overflow.
For architectures that do not support
CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING, cputime_one_jiffy is the constant 1
and gcc is smart enough to optimise min(s32
percpu_counter_batch, INT_MAX) to just percpu_counter_batch at
least on x86 and PowerPC. So there is no need to add an #ifdef.
On a 64 thread PowerPC box with CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING and
CONFIG_CGROUP_CPUACCT enabled, a context switch microbenchmark
is 234x faster and almost matches a CONFIG_CGROUP_CPUACCT
disabled kernel:
CONFIG_CGROUP_CPUACCT disabled: 16906698 ctx switches/sec
CONFIG_CGROUP_CPUACCT enabled: 61720 ctx switches/sec
CONFIG_CGROUP_CPUACCT + patch: 16663217 ctx switches/sec

The code to track the CPPR values added by commit
49bd3647134ea47420067aea8d1401e722bf2aac ("powerpc/pseries: Track previous
CPPR values to correctly EOI interrupts") broke kexec on pseries because
the kexec code in xics.c calls xics_set_cpu_priority() before the IPI has
been EOI'ed. This wasn't a problem previously but it now triggers a BUG_ON
in xics_set_cpu_priority() because os_cppr->index isn't 0.
Fix this problem by setting the index on the CPPR stack to 0 before calling
xics_set_cpu_priority() in xics_teardown_cpu().
Also make it clear that we only want to set the priority when there's just
one CPPR value in the stack, and enforce it by updating the value of
os_cppr->stack[0] rather than os_cppr->stack[os_cppr->index].
While we're at it change the BUG_ON to a WARN_ON.

Now that the DWARF unwinder is being used to provide perf callstacks
unwinding speed is an issue. It is no longer being used in exceptional
circumstances where we don't care about runtime performance, e.g. when
panicing, so it makes sense improve performance is possible.
With this patch I saw a 42% improvement in unwind time when calling
return_address(1). Greater improvements will be seen as the number of
levels unwound increases as each unwind is now cheaper.
Note that insertion time has doubled but that's just the price we pay
for keeping the trees balanced. However, this is a one-time cost for
kernel boot/module load and so the improvements in lookup time dominate
the extra time we spend keeping the trees balanced.

Unfortunately, due to poor DWARF info in current toolchains, unwinding
through interrutps cannot be done reliably. The problem is that the
DWARF info for function epilogues is wrong.
Take this standard epilogue sequence,
80003cc4: e3 6f mov r14,r15
80003cc6: 26 4f lds.l @r15+,pr
80003cc8: f6 6e mov.l @r15+,r14
<---- interrupt here
80003cca: f6 6b mov.l @r15+,r11
80003ccc: f6 6a mov.l @r15+,r10
80003cce: f6 69 mov.l @r15+,r9
80003cd0: 0b 00 rts
If we take an interrupt at the highlighted point, the DWARF info will
bogusly claim that the return address can be found at some offset from
the frame pointer, even though the frame pointer was just restored. The
worst part is if the unwinder finds a text address at the bogus stack
address - unwinding will continue, for a bit, until it finally comes
across an unexpected address on the stack and blows up.
The only solution is to stop unwinding once we've calculated the
function that was executing when the interrupt occurred. This PC can be
easily calculated from pt_regs->pc.

The address that ret_from_exception and ret_from_irq will return to is
found in the stack slot for SPC, not PR. This error was causing the
DWARF unwinder to pick up the wrong return address on the stack and then
unwind using the unwind tables for the wrong function.
While I'm here I might as well add CFI annotations for the other
registers since they could be useful when unwinding.

This reverts commit 703625118069 ("tty: fix race in tty_fasync") and
commit b04da8bfdfbb ("fnctl: f_modown should call write_lock_irqsave/
restore") that tried to fix up some of the fallout but was incomplete.
It turns out that we really cannot hold 'tty->ctrl_lock' over calling
__f_setown, because not only did that cause problems with interrupt
disables (which the second commit fixed), it also causes a potential
ABBA deadlock due to lock ordering.
Thanks to Tetsuo Handa for following up on the issue, and running
lockdep to show the problem. It goes roughly like this:
- f_getown gets filp->f_owner.lock for reading without interrupts
disabled, so an interrupt that happens while that lock is held can
cause a lockdep chain from f_owner.lock -> sighand->siglock.
- at the same time, the tty->ctrl_lock -> f_owner.lock chain that
commit 703625118069 introduced, together with the pre-existing
sighand->siglock -> tty->ctrl_lock chain means that we have a lock
dependency the other way too.
So instead of extending tty->ctrl_lock over the whole __f_setown() call,
we now just take a reference to the 'pid' structure while holding the
lock, and then release it after having done the __f_setown. That still
guarantees that 'struct pid' won't go away from under us, which is all
we really ever needed.

Because we may have aliases, like __GI___strcoll_l in
/lib64/libc-2.10.2.so that appears in objdump as:
$ objdump --start-address=0x0000003715a86420 \
--stop-address=0x0000003715a872dc -dS /lib64/libc-2.10.2.so
0000003715a86420 <__strcoll_l>:
3715a86420: 55 push %rbp
3715a86421: 48 89 e5 mov %rsp,%rbp
3715a86424: 41 57 push %r15
[root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]#
So look for the address exactly at the start of the line instead
so that annotation can work for in these cases.

First, for programs and prelinked libraries, annotate code was
fooled by objdump output IPs (src->eip in the code) being
wrongly converted to absolute IPs. In such case there were no
conversion needed, but in
src->eip = strtoull(src->line, NULL, 16);
src->eip = map->unmap_ip(map, src->eip); // = eip + map->start - map->pgoff
we were reading absolute address from objdump (e.g. 8048604) and
then almost doubling it, because eip & map->start are
approximately close for small programs.
Needless to say, that later, in record_precise_ip() there was no
matching with real runtime IPs.
And second, like with `perf annotate` the problem with
non-prelinked *.so was that we were doing rip -> objdump address
conversion wrong.
Also, because unlike `perf annotate`, `perf top` code does
annotation based on absolute IPs for performance reasons(*), new
helper for mapping objdump addresse to IP is introduced.
(*) we get samples info in absolute IPs, and since we do lots of
hit-testing on absolute IPs at runtime in record_precise_ip(), it's
better to convert objdump addresses to IPs once and do no conversion
at runtime.
I also had to fix how objdump output is parsed (with hardcoded
8/16 characters format, which was inappropriate for ET_DYN dsos
with small addresses like '4ac')
Also note, that not all objdump output lines has associtated
IPs, e.g. look at source lines here:
000004ac <my_strlen>:
extern "C"
int my_strlen(const char *s)
4ac: 55 push %ebp
4ad: 89 e5 mov %esp,%ebp
4af: 83 ec 10 sub $0x10,%esp
{
int len = 0;
4b2: c7 45 fc 00 00 00 00 movl $0x0,-0x4(%ebp)
4b9: eb 08 jmp 4c3 <my_strlen+0x17>
while (*s) {
++len;
4bb: 83 45 fc 01 addl $0x1,-0x4(%ebp)
++s;
4bf: 83 45 08 01 addl $0x1,0x8(%ebp)
So we mark them with eip=0, and ignore such lines in annotate
lookup code.
