<linux/sched.h> Update code that relied on sched.h including various MM types for them. This will allow us to remove the <linux/mm_types.h> include from <linux/sched.h>.

2017-03-02sched/headers: Prepare for new header dependencies before moving code to ↵Ingo Molnar
<linux/sched/signal.h> We are going to split <linux/sched/signal.h> out of <linux/sched.h>, which will have to be picked up from other headers and a couple of .c files. Create a trivial placeholder <linux/sched/signal.h> file that just maps to <linux/sched.h> to make this patch obviously correct and bisectable. Include the new header in the files that are going to need it.

2009-07-17kernel: is_current_single_threaded: don't use ->mmap_semOleg Nesterov
is_current_single_threaded() can safely miss a freshly forked CLONE_VM task, but in this case it must not miss its parent. That is why we take mm->mmap_sem for writing to make sure a thread/task with the same ->mm can't pass exit_mm() and disappear. However we can avoid ->mmap_sem and rely on rcu/barriers: - if we do not see the exiting parent on thread/process list we see the result of list_del_rcu(), in this case we must also see the result of list_add_rcu() which does wmb(). - if we do see the parent but its ->mm == NULL, we need rmb() to make sure we can't miss the child.

2009-07-17kernel: rename is_single_threaded(task) to current_is_single_threaded(void)Oleg Nesterov
- is_single_threaded(task) is not safe unless task == current, we can't use task->signal or task->mm. - it doesn't make sense unless task == current, the task can fork right after the check. Rename it to current_is_single_threaded() and kill the argument.

2009-07-17kernel: fix is_single_threadedOleg Nesterov
- Fix the comment, is_single_threaded(p) actually means that nobody shares ->mm with p. I think this helper should be renamed, and it should not have arguments. With or without this patch it must not be used unless p == current, otherwise we can't safely use p->signal or p->mm. - "if (atomic_read(&p->signal->count) != 1)" is not right when we have a zombie group leader, use signal->live instead. - Add PF_KTHREAD check to skip kernel threads which may borrow p->mm, otherwise we can return the wrong "false". - Use for_each_process() instead of do_each_thread(), all threads must use the same ->mm. - Use down_write(mm->mmap_sem) + rcu_read_lock() instead of tasklist_lock to iterate over the process list. If there is another CLONE_VM process it can't pass exit_mm() which takes the same mm->mmap_sem. We can miss a freshly forked CLONE_VM task, but this doesn't matter because we must see its parent and return false.
