Currently, if a group is created where the group leader is
initially disabled but a non-leader member is initially
enabled, and then the leader is subsequently enabled some time
later, the time_enabled for the non-leader member will reflect
the whole time since it was created, not just the time since
the leader was enabled.
This is incorrect, because all of the members are effectively
disabled while the leader is disabled, since none of the
members can go on the PMU if the leader can't.
Thus we have to update the ->tstamp_enabled for all the enabled
group members when a group leader is enabled, so that the
time_enabled computation only counts the time since the leader
was enabled.
Similarly, when disabling a group leader we have to update the
time_enabled and time_running for all of the group members.
Also, in update_counter_times, we have to treat a counter whose
group leader is disabled as being disabled.

Don't use timespec_add_safe() with wall_to_monotonic, because
wall_to_monotonic has negative values which will cause overflow

Add preemptable-RCU plugin to handle the CPU-offline
processing.
An additional plugin is forthcoming to handle multinode RCU
trees, but this current plugin works for configurations up to
32 CPUs (64 CPUs for 64-bit kernels).

When process accounting is enabled, every exiting process writes a log to
the account file. In addition, every once in a while one of the exiting
processes checks whether there's enough free space for the log.
SELinux policy may or may not allow the exiting process to stat the fs.
So unsuspecting processes start generating AVC denials just because
someone enabled process accounting.
For these filesystem operations, the exiting process's credentials should
be temporarily switched to that of the process which enabled accounting,
because it's really that process which wanted to have the accounting
information logged.

Create a kernel/rcutree_plugin.h file that contains definitions
for preemptable RCU (or, under the #else branch of the #ifdef,
empty definitions for the classic non-preemptable semantics).
These definitions fit into plugins defined in kernel/rcutree.c
for this purpose.
This variant of preemptable RCU uses a new algorithm whose
read-side expense is roughly that of classic hierarchical RCU
under CONFIG_PREEMPT. This new algorithm's update-side expense
is similar to that of classic hierarchical RCU, and, in absence
of read-side preemption or blocking, is exactly that of classic
hierarchical RCU. Perhaps more important, this new algorithm
has a much simpler implementation, saving well over 1,000 lines
of code compared to mainline's implementation of preemptable
RCU, which will hopefully be retired in favor of this new
algorithm.
The simplifications are obtained by maintaining per-task
nesting state for running tasks, and using a simple
lock-protected algorithm to handle accounting when tasks block
within RCU read-side critical sections, making use of lessons
learned while creating numerous user-level RCU implementations
over the past 18 months.

All calls from outside RCU are of the form:
if (rcu_pending(cpu))
rcu_check_callbacks(cpu, user);
This is silly, instead we put a call to rcu_pending() in
rcu_check_callbacks(), and then make the outside calls be to
rcu_check_callbacks(). This cuts down on the code a bit and
also gives the compiler a better chance of optimizing.

SDM Vol 3a section titled "MTRR considerations in MP systems" specifies
the need for synchronizing the logical cpu's while initializing/updating
MTRR.
Currently Linux kernel does the synchronization of all cpu's only when
a single MTRR register is programmed/updated. During an AP online
(during boot/cpu-online/resume) where we initialize all the MTRR/PAT registers,
we don't follow this synchronization algorithm.
This can lead to scenarios where during a dynamic cpu online, that logical cpu
is initializing MTRR/PAT with cache disabled (cr0.cd=1) etc while other logical
HT sibling continue to run (also with cache disabled because of cr0.cd=1
on its sibling).
Starting from Westmere, VMX transitions with cr0.cd=1 don't work properly
(because of some VMX performance optimizations) and the above scenario
(with one logical cpu doing VMX activity and another logical cpu coming online)
can result in system crash.
Fix the MTRR initialization by doing rendezvous of all the cpus. During
boot and resume, we delay the MTRR/PAT init for APs till all the
logical cpu's come online and the rendezvous process at the end of AP's bringup,
will initialize the MTRR/PAT for all AP's.
For dynamic single cpu online, we synchronize all the logical cpus and
do the MTRR/PAT init on the AP that is coming online.

After talking with some application writers who want very fast, but not
fine-grained timestamps, I decided to try to implement new clock_ids
to clock_gettime(): CLOCK_REALTIME_COARSE and CLOCK_MONOTONIC_COARSE
which returns the time at the last tick. This is very fast as we don't
have to access any hardware (which can be very painful if you're using
something like the acpi_pm clocksource), and we can even use the vdso
clock_gettime() method to avoid the syscall. The only trade off is you
only get low-res tick grained time resolution.
This isn't a new idea, I know Ingo has a patch in the -rt tree that made
the vsyscall gettimeofday() return coarse grained time when the
vsyscall64 sysctrl was set to 2. However this affects all applications
on a system.
With this method, applications can choose the proper speed/granularity
trade-off for themselves.

Currently clockevents_notify() is called with interrupts enabled at
some places and interrupts disabled at some other places.
This results in a deadlock in this scenario.
cpu A holds clockevents_lock in clockevents_notify() with irqs enabled
cpu B waits for clockevents_lock in clockevents_notify() with irqs disabled
cpu C doing set_mtrr() which will try to rendezvous of all the cpus.
This will result in C and A come to the rendezvous point and waiting
for B. B is stuck forever waiting for the spinlock and thus not
reaching the rendezvous point.
Fix the clockevents code so that clockevents_lock is taken with
interrupts disabled and thus avoid the above deadlock.
Also call lapic_timer_propagate_broadcast() on the destination cpu so
that we avoid calling smp_call_function() in the clockevents notifier
chain.
This issue left us wondering if we need to change the MTRR rendezvous
logic to use stop machine logic (instead of smp_call_function) or add
a check in spinlock debug code to see if there are other spinlocks
which gets taken under both interrupts enabled/disabled conditions.

The "format" file of a trace event is originally for parsers to
parse ftrace binary output.
But the "format" file of a syscall event can only be used by
perfcounter, because it describes the format of struct
syscall_enter_record not struct syscall_trace_enter.
To fix this, we remove struct syscall_enter_record, and then
struct syscall_trace_enter will be used by both perf profile
and ftrace.

This change moves an RCU grace period delay off of the
critical path for CPU-hotunplug operations.
Since RCU callback migration is only performed on
CPU-hotunplug operations, and since the rcu_barrier() race is
provoked only by consecutive CPU-hotunplug operations, it is
not necessary to delay the end of a given CPU-hotunplug
operation.
We can instead choose to delay the beginning of the next
CPU-hotunplug operation.

stop_machine from a multithreaded workqueue is not allowed because
of a circular locking dependency between cpu_down and the workqueue
execution. Use a kernel thread to do the clocksource downgrade.

Martin pointed out that commit 6ea41d2529 (clocksource: Call
clocksource_change_rating() outside of watchdog_lock) has a
theoretical reference count problem. The calls to
clocksource_change_rating() are now done outside of the clocksource
mutex and outside of the watchdog lock. A concurrent
clocksource_unregister() could remove the clock.
Split out the code which changes the rating from
clocksource_change_rating() into __clocksource_change_rating().
Protect the clocksource_watchdog_work() code sequence with the
clocksource_mutex() and call __clocksource_change_rating().

If CONFIG_IKCONFIG is set but CONFIG_IKCONFIG_PROC is not, then
gcc will optimize the config.gz out, because nobody uses it.
This patch adds "__used" to the config.gz data to keep it around so that
code like extract-ikconfig can still find it.
[ Impact: allow extract-ikconfig to find config.gz ]

If one filter item (for set_ftrace_filter and set_ftrace_notrace) is being
setup by more than 1 consecutive writes (FTRACE_ITER_CONT flag), it won't
be handled corretly.
I used following program to test/verify:
[snip]
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <string.h>
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
int fd, i;
char *file = argv[1];
if (-1 == (fd = open(file, O_WRONLY))) {
perror("open failed");
return -1;
}
for(i = 0; i < (argc - 2); i++) {
int len = strlen(argv[2+i]);
int cnt, off = 0;
while(len) {
cnt = write(fd, argv[2+i] + off, len);
len -= cnt;
off += cnt;
}
}
close(fd);
return 0;
}

The commit 2ff05b2b (oom: move oom_adj value) moveed the oom_adj value to
the mm_struct. It was a very good first step for sanitize OOM.
However Paul Menage reported the commit makes regression to his job
scheduler. Current OOM logic can kill OOM_DISABLED process.
Why? His program has the code of similar to the following.
...
set_oom_adj(OOM_DISABLE); /* The job scheduler never killed by oom */
...
if (vfork() == 0) {
set_oom_adj(0); /* Invoked child can be killed */
execve("foo-bar-cmd");
}
....
vfork() parent and child are shared the same mm_struct. then above
set_oom_adj(0) doesn't only change oom_adj for vfork() child, it's also
change oom_adj for vfork() parent. Then, vfork() parent (job scheduler)
lost OOM immune and it was killed.
Actually, fork-setting-exec idiom is very frequently used in userland program.
We must not break this assumption.
Then, this patch revert commit 2ff05b2b and related commit.

- commit 2ff05b2b4e (oom: move oom_adj value from task_struct to mm_struct)

- commit 8123681022 (oom: only oom kill exiting tasks with attached memory)
