threadgroup_change_begin()/end() is a pointless wrapper around
cgroup_threadgroup_change_begin()/end(), minus a might_sleep()
in the !CONFIG_CGROUPS=y case.
Remove the wrappery, move the might_sleep() (the down_read()
already has a might_sleep() check).
This debloats <linux/sched.h> a bit and simplifies this API.
Update all call sites.
No change in functionality.

tsk_nr_cpus_allowed() too is a pretty pointless wrapper that
is not used consistently and which makes the code both harder
to read and longer as well.
So remove it - this also shrinks <linux/sched.h> a bit.

So the original intention of tsk_cpus_allowed() was to 'future-proof'
the field - but it's pretty ineffectual at that, because half of
the code uses ->cpus_allowed directly ...
Also, the wrapper makes the code longer than the original expression!
So just get rid of it. This also shrinks <linux/sched.h> a bit.

It's defined in <linux/sched.h>, but nothing outside the scheduler
uses it - so move it to the sched/core.c usage site.

The length of TASK_STATE_TO_CHAR_STR was still checked using the old
link-time manual error method - convert it to BUILD_BUG_ON(). This
has a couple of advantages:
- it's more obvious what's going on
- it reduces the size and complexity of <linux/sched.h>
- BUILD_BUG_ON() will fail during compilation, with a clearer
error message than the link time assert.

Apart from adding the helper function itself, the rest of the kernel is
converted mechanically using:
git grep -l 'atomic_inc.*mm_users' | xargs sed -i 's/atomic_inc(&\(.*\)->mm_users);/mmget\(\1\);/'
git grep -l 'atomic_inc.*mm_users' | xargs sed -i 's/atomic_inc(&\(.*\)\.mm_users);/mmget\(\&\1\);/'
This is needed for a later patch that hooks into the helper, but might
be a worthwhile cleanup on its own.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace
Pull namespace updates from Eric Biederman:
"There is a lot here. A lot of these changes result in subtle user
visible differences in kernel behavior. I don't expect anything will
care but I will revert/fix things immediately if any regressions show
up.
From Seth Forshee there is a continuation of the work to make the vfs
ready for unpriviled mounts. We had thought the previous changes
prevented the creation of files outside of s_user_ns of a filesystem,
but it turns we missed the O_CREAT path. Ooops.
Pavel Tikhomirov and Oleg Nesterov worked together to fix a long
standing bug in the implemenation of PR_SET_CHILD_SUBREAPER where only
children that are forked after the prctl are considered and not
children forked before the prctl. The only known user of this prctl
systemd forks all children after the prctl. So no userspace
regressions will occur. Holding earlier forked children to the same
rules as later forked children creates a semantic that is sane enough
to allow checkpoing of processes that use this feature.
There is a long delayed change by Nikolay Borisov to limit inotify
instances inside a user namespace.
Michael Kerrisk extends the API for files used to maniuplate
namespaces with two new trivial ioctls to allow discovery of the
hierachy and properties of namespaces.
Konstantin Khlebnikov with the help of Al Viro adds code that when a
network namespace exits purges it's sysctl entries from the dcache. As
in some circumstances this could use a lot of memory.
Vivek Goyal fixed a bug with stacked filesystems where the permissions
on the wrong inode were being checked.
I continue previous work on ptracing across exec. Allowing a file to
be setuid across exec while being ptraced if the tracer has enough
credentials in the user namespace, and if the process has CAP_SETUID
in it's own namespace. Proc files for setuid or otherwise undumpable
executables are now owned by the root in the user namespace of their
mm. Allowing debugging of setuid applications in containers to work
better.
A bug I introduced with permission checking and automount is now
fixed. The big change is to mark the mounts that the kernel initiates
as a result of an automount. This allows the permission checks in sget
to be safely suppressed for this kind of mount. As the permission
check happened when the original filesystem was mounted.
Finally a special case in the mount namespace is removed preventing
unbounded chains in the mount hash table, and making the semantics
simpler which benefits CRIU.
The vfs fix along with related work in ima and evm I believe makes us
ready to finish developing and merge fully unprivileged mounts of the
fuse filesystem. The cleanups of the mount namespace makes discussing
how to fix the worst case complexity of umount. The stacked filesystem
fixes pave the way for adding multiple mappings for the filesystem
uids so that efficient and safer containers can be implemented"

In commit:
acb04058de494 ("sched/clock: Fix hotplug crash")
the PARISC code gained a call to this function.
However the prototype for it is within a CONFIG_HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK=y
#ifdef/#endif. That, combined with this:
arch/parisc/Kconfig: select HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK if SMP
means that PARISC can have it either enabled or disabled, resulting
in the following build fail:
arch/parisc/kernel/setup.c:180:2: error: implicit declaration of
function 'clear_sched_clock_stable' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
Add a no-op stub for the non-SMP case to prevent this.

Now that most cputime readers use the transition API which return the
task cputime in old style cputime_t, we can safely store the cputime in
nsecs. This will eventually make cputime statistics less opaque and more
granular. Back and forth convertions between cputime_t and nsecs in order
to deal with cputime_t random granularity won't be needed anymore.

This patchset converts inotify to using the newly introduced
per-userns sysctl infrastructure.
Currently the inotify instances/watches are being accounted in the
user_struct structure. This means that in setups where multiple
users in unprivileged containers map to the same underlying
real user (i.e. pointing to the same user_struct) the inotify limits
are going to be shared as well, allowing one user(or application) to exhaust
all others limits.
Fix this by switching the inotify sysctls to using the
per-namespace/per-user limits. This will allow the server admin to
set sensible global limits, which can further be tuned inside every
individual user namespace. Additionally, in order to preserve the
sysctl ABI make the existing inotify instances/watches sysctls
modify the values of the initial user namespace.

In __rwsem_down_write_failed_common(), the same wake_q variable name
is defined twice, with the inner wake_q hiding the one in outer scope.
We can either use different names for the two wake_q's.
Even better, we can use the same wake_q twice, if necessary.
To enable the latter change, we need to define a new helper function
wake_q_init() to enable reinitalization of wake_q after use.

Mike reported that he could trigger the WARN_ON_ONCE() in
set_sched_clock_stable() using hotplug.
This exposed a fundamental problem with the interface, we should never
mark the TSC stable if we ever find it to be unstable. Therefore
set_sched_clock_stable() is a broken interface.
The reason it existed is that not having it is a pain, it means all
relevant architecture code needs to call clear_sched_clock_stable()
where appropriate.
Of the three architectures that select HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK ia64
and parisc are trivial in that they never called
set_sched_clock_stable(), so add an unconditional call to
clear_sched_clock_stable() to them.
For x86 the story is a lot more involved, and what this patch tries to
do is ensure we preserve the status quo. So even is Cyrix or Transmeta
have usable TSC they never called set_sched_clock_stable() so they now
get an explicit mark unstable.

Now that IO schedule accounting is done inside __schedule(),
io_schedule() can be split into three steps - prep, schedule, and
finish - where the schedule part doesn't need any special annotation.
This allows marking a sleep as iowait by simply wrapping an existing
blocking function with io_schedule_prepare() and io_schedule_finish().
Because task_struct->in_iowait is single bit, the caller of
io_schedule_prepare() needs to record and the pass its state to
io_schedule_finish() to be safe regarding nesting. While this isn't
the prettiest, these functions are mostly gonna be used by core
functions and we don't want to use more space for ->in_iowait.
While at it, as it's simple to do now, reimplement io_schedule()
without unnecessarily going through io_schedule_timeout().

Currently we switch to the stable sched_clock if we guess the TSC is
usable, and then switch back to the unstable path if it turns out TSC
isn't stable during SMP bringup after all.
Delay switching to the stable path until after SMP bringup is
complete. This way we'll avoid switching during the time we detect the
worst of the TSC offences.

This is a nasty interface and setting the state of a foreign task must
not be done. As of the following commit:
be628be0956 ("bcache: Make gc wakeup sane, remove set_task_state()")
... everyone in the kernel calls set_task_state() with current, allowing
the helper to be removed.
However, as the comment indicates, it is still around for those archs
where computing current is more expensive than using a pointer, at least
in theory. An important arch that is affected is arm64, however this has
been addressed now [1] and performance is up to par making no difference
with either calls.
Of all the callers, if any, it's the locking bits that would care most
about this -- ie: we end up passing a tsk pointer to a lot of the lock
slowpath, and setting ->state on that. The following numbers are based
on two tests: a custom ad-hoc microbenchmark that just measures
latencies (for ~65 million calls) between get_task_state() vs
get_current_state().
Secondly for a higher overview, an unlink microbenchmark was used,
which pounds on a single file with open, close,unlink combos with
increasing thread counts (up to 4x ncpus). While the workload is quite
unrealistic, it does contend a lot on the inode mutex or now rwsem.

Since commit 00cd5c37afd5 ("ptrace: permit ptracing of /sbin/init") we
can now trace init processes. init is initially protected with
SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE which will prevent fatal signals such as SIGSTOP, but
there are a number of paths during tracing where SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE can
be implicitly cleared.
This can result in init becoming stoppable/killable after tracing. For
example, running:
while true; do kill -STOP 1; done &
strace -p 1
and then stopping strace and the kill loop will result in init being
left in state TASK_STOPPED. Sending SIGCONT to init will resume it, but
init will now respond to future SIGSTOP signals rather than ignoring
them.
Make sure that when setting SIGNAL_STOP_CONTINUED/SIGNAL_STOP_STOPPED
that we don't clear SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE.

Pull x86 cache allocation interface from Thomas Gleixner:
"This provides support for Intel's Cache Allocation Technology, a cache
partitioning mechanism.
The interface is odd, but the hardware interface of that CAT stuff is
odd as well.
We tried hard to come up with an abstraction, but that only allows
rather simple partitioning, but no way of sharing and dealing with the
per package nature of this mechanism.
In the end we decided to expose the allocation bitmaps directly so all
combinations of the hardware can be utilized.
There are two ways of associating a cache partition:
- Task
A task can be added to a resource group. It uses the cache
partition associated to the group.
- CPU
All tasks which are not member of a resource group use the group to
which the CPU they are running on is associated with.
That allows for simple CPU based partitioning schemes.
The main expected user sare:
- Virtualization so a VM can only trash only the associated part of
the cash w/o disturbing others
- Real-Time systems to seperate RT and general workloads.
- Latency sensitive enterprise workloads
- In theory this also can be used to protect against cache side
channel attacks"
[ Intel RDT is "Resource Director Technology". The interface really is
rather odd and very specific, which delayed this pull request while I
was thinking about it. The pull request itself came in early during
the merge window, I just delayed it until things had calmed down and I
had more time.
But people tell me they'll use this, and the good news is that it is
_so_ specific that it's rather independent of anything else, and no
user is going to depend on the interface since it's pretty rare. So if
push comes to shove, we can just remove the interface and nothing will

"After a lot of discussion and work we have finally reachanged a basic
understanding of what is necessary to make unprivileged mounts safe in
the presence of EVM and IMA xattrs which the last commit in this
series reflects. While technically it is a revert the comments it adds
are important for people not getting confused in the future. Clearing
up that confusion allows us to seriously work on unprivileged mounts
of fuse in the next development cycle.
The rest of the fixes in this set are in the intersection of user
namespaces, ptrace, and exec. I started with the first fix which
started a feedback cycle of finding additional issues during review
and fixing them. Culiminating in a fix for a bug that has been present
since at least Linux v1.0.
Potentially these fixes were candidates for being merged during the rc
cycle, and are certainly backport candidates but enough little things
turned up during review and testing that I decided they should be
handled as part of the normal development process just to be certain
there were not any great surprises when it came time to backport some
of these fixes"

This limitation came with the reason to remove "another way for
malicious code to obscure a compromised program and masquerade as a
benign process" by allowing "security-concious program can use this
prctl once during its early initialization to ensure the prctl cannot
later be abused for this purpose":
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=133160684517468&w=2
This explanation doesn't look sufficient. The only thing "exe" link is
indicating is the file, used to execve, which is basically nothing and
not reliable immediately after process has returned from execve system
call.
Moreover, to use this feture, all the mappings to previous exe file have
to be unmapped and all the new exe file permissions must be satisfied.
Which means, that changing exe link is very similar to calling execve on
the binary.
The need to remove this limitations comes from migration of NFS mount
point, which is not accessible during restore and replaced by other file
system. Because of this exe link has to be changed twice.

Idle injection drivers such as Intel powerclamp and ACPI PAD drivers use
realtime tasks to take control of CPU then inject idle. There are two
issues with this approach:
1. Low efficiency: injected idle task is treated as busy so sched ticks
do not stop during injected idle period, the result of these
unwanted wakeups can be ~20% loss in power savings.
2. Idle accounting: injected idle time is presented to user as busy.
This patch addresses the issues by introducing a new PF_IDLE flag which
allows any given task to be treated as idle task while the flag is set.
Therefore, idle injection tasks can run through the normal flow of NOHZ
idle enter/exit to get the correct accounting as well as tick stop when
possible.
The implication is that idle task is then no longer limited to PID == 0.

We generalize the scheduler's asym packing to provide an ordering
of the cpu beyond just the cpu number. This allows the use of the
ASYM_PACKING scheduler machinery to move loads to preferred CPU in a
sched domain. The preference is defined with the cpu priority
given by arch_asym_cpu_priority(cpu).
We also record the most preferred cpu in a sched group when
we build the cpu's capacity for fast lookup of preferred cpu
during load balancing.

When the flag PT_PTRACE_CAP was added the PTRACE_TRACEME path was
overlooked. This can result in incorrect behavior when an application
like strace traces an exec of a setuid executable.
Further PT_PTRACE_CAP does not have enough information for making good
security decisions as it does not report which user namespace the
capability is in. This has already allowed one mistake through
insufficient granulariy.
I found this issue when I was testing another corner case of exec and
discovered that I could not get strace to set PT_PTRACE_CAP even when
running strace as root with a full set of caps.
This change fixes the above issue with strace allowing stracing as
root a setuid executable without disabling setuid. More fundamentaly
this change allows what is allowable at all times, by using the correct
information in it's decision.

This patch is the first step to add support to improve lock holder
preemption beaviour.
vcpu_is_preempted(cpu) does the obvious thing: it tells us whether a
vCPU is preempted or not.
Defaults to false on architectures that don't support it.

Exactly because for_each_thread() in autogroup_move_group() can't see it
and update its ->sched_task_group before _put() and possibly free().
So the exiting task needs another sched_move_task() before exit_notify()
and we need to re-introduce the PF_EXITING (or similar) check removed by
the previous change for another reason.

Currently the wake_q data structure is defined by the WAKE_Q() macro.
This macro, however, looks like a function doing something as "wake" is
a verb. Even checkpatch.pl was confused as it reported warnings like
WARNING: Missing a blank line after declarations
#548: FILE: kernel/futex.c:3665:
+ int ret;
+ WAKE_Q(wake_q);
This patch renames the WAKE_Q() macro to DEFINE_WAKE_Q() which clarifies
what the macro is doing and eliminates the checkpatch.pl warnings.

Now since fetch_task_cputime() has no other users than task_cputime(),
its code could be used directly in task_cputime().
Moreover since only 2 task_cputime() calls of 17 use a NULL argument,
we can add dummy variables to those calls and remove NULL checks from
task_cputimes().
Also remove NULL checks from task_cputimes_scaled().

Only s390 and powerpc have hardware facilities allowing to measure
cputimes scaled by frequency. On all other architectures
utimescaled/stimescaled are equal to utime/stime (however they are
accounted separately).
Remove {u,s}timescaled accounting on all architectures except
powerpc and s390, where those values are explicitly accounted
in the proper places.

The root directory all subdirectories are automatically populated with a
read/write (mode 0644) file named "tasks". When read it will show all the
task IDs assigned to the resource group. Tasks can be added (one at a time)
to a group by writing the task ID to the file. E.g.
Membership in a resource group is indicated by a new field in the
task_struct "int closid" which holds the CLOSID for each task. The default
resource group uses CLOSID=0 which means that all existing tasks when the
resctrl file system is mounted belong to the default group.
If a group is removed, tasks which are members of that group are moved to
the default group.
