2011-08-14perf: provide PMU when initing eventsMark Rutland
Currently, an event's 'pmu' field is set after pmu::event_init() is called. This means that pmu::event_init() must figure out which struct pmu the event was initialised from. This makes it difficult to consolidate common event initialisation code for similar PMUs, and very difficult to implement drivers for PMUs which can have multiple instances (e.g. a USB controller PMU, a GPU PMU, etc). This patch sets the 'pmu' field before initialising the event, allowing event init code to identify the struct pmu instance easily. In the event of failure to initialise an event, the event is destroyed via kfree() without calling perf_event::destroy(), so this shouldn't result in bad behaviour even if the destroy field was set before failure to initialise was noted.

2011-08-14perf: Add PM notifiers to fix CPU hotplug racesPeter Zijlstra
Francis reports that s2r gets him spurious NMIs, this is because the suspend code leaves the boot cpu up and running. Cure this by adding a suspend notifier. The problem is that hotplug and suspend are completely un-serialized and the PM notifiers run before the suspend cpu unplug of all but the boot cpu. This leaves a window where the user can initialize another hotplug operation (either remove or add a cpu) resulting in either one too many or one too few hotplug ops. Thus we cannot use the hotplug code for the suspend case. There's another reason to not use the hotplug code, which is that the hotplug code totally destroys the perf state, we can do better for suspend and simply remove all counters from the PMU so that we can re-instate them on resume.

2011-08-11move RLIMIT_NPROC check from set_user() to do_execve_common()Vasiliy Kulikov
The patch http://lkml.org/lkml/2003/7/13/226 introduced an RLIMIT_NPROC check in set_user() to check for NPROC exceeding via setuid() and similar functions. Before the check there was a possibility to greatly exceed the allowed number of processes by an unprivileged user if the program relied on rlimit only. But the check created new security threat: many poorly written programs simply don't check setuid() return code and believe it cannot fail if executed with root privileges. So, the check is removed in this patch because of too often privilege escalations related to buggy programs. The NPROC can still be enforced in the common code flow of daemons spawning user processes. Most of daemons do fork()+setuid()+execve(). The check introduced in execve() (1) enforces the same limit as in setuid() and (2) doesn't create similar security issues. Neil Brown suggested to track what specific process has exceeded the limit by setting PF_NPROC_EXCEEDED process flag. With the change only this process would fail on execve(), and other processes' execve() behaviour is not changed. Solar Designer suggested to re-check whether NPROC limit is still exceeded at the moment of execve(). If the process was sleeping for days between set*uid() and execve(), and the NPROC counter step down under the limit, the defered execve() failure because NPROC limit was exceeded days ago would be unexpected. If the limit is not exceeded anymore, we clear the flag on successful calls to execve() and fork(). The flag is also cleared on successful calls to set_user() as the limit was exceeded for the previous user, not the current one. Similar check was introduced in -ow patches (without the process flag). v3 - clear PF_NPROC_EXCEEDED on successful calls to set_user().

2011-08-10Tracepoint: Dissociate from module mutexMathieu Desnoyers
Copy the information needed from struct module into a local module list held within tracepoint.c from within the module coming/going notifier. This vastly simplifies locking of tracepoint registration / unregistration, because we don't have to take the module mutex to register and unregister tracepoints anymore. Steven Rostedt ran into dependency problems related to modules mutex vs kprobes mutex vs ftrace mutex vs tracepoint mutex that seems to be hard to fix without removing this dependency between tracepoint and module mutex. (note: it should be investigated whether kprobes could benefit of being dissociated from the modules mutex too.) This also fixes module handling of tracepoint list iterators, because it was expecting the list to be sorted by pointer address. Given we have control on our own list now, it's OK to sort this list which has tracepoints as its only purpose. The reason why this sorting is required is to handle the fact that seq files (and any read() operation from user-space) cannot hold the tracepoint mutex across multiple calls, so list entries may vanish between calls. With sorting, the tracepoint iterator becomes usable even if the list don't contain the exact item pointed to by the iterator anymore.

2011-08-09cap_syslog: don't use WARN_ONCE for CAP_SYS_ADMIN deprecation warningJonathan Nieder
syslog-ng versions before 3.3.0beta1 (2011-05-12) assume that CAP_SYS_ADMIN is sufficient to access syslog, so ever since CAP_SYSLOG was introduced (2010-11-25) they have triggered a warning. Commit ee24aebffb75 ("cap_syslog: accept CAP_SYS_ADMIN for now") improved matters a little by making syslog-ng work again, just keeping the WARN_ONCE(). But still, this is a warning that writes a stack trace we don't care about to syslog, sets a taint flag, and alarms sysadmins when nothing worse has happened than use of an old userspace with a recent kernel. Convert the WARN_ONCE to a printk_once to avoid that while continuing to give userspace developers a hint that this is an unwanted backward-compatibility feature and won't be around forever.

2011-08-09lockdep: Fix wrong assumption in match_held_lockPeter Zijlstra
match_held_lock() was assuming it was being called on a lock class that had already seen usage. This condition was true for bug-free code using lockdep_assert_held(), since you're in fact holding the lock when calling it. However the assumption fails the moment you assume the assertion can fail, which is the whole point of having the assertion in the first place. Anyway, now that there's more lockdep_is_held() users, notably __rcu_dereference_check(), its much easier to trigger this since we test for a number of locks and we only need to hold any one of them to be good.

2011-08-05jump label: Reduce the cycle count by changing the link orderJason Baron
In the course of testing jump labels for use with the CFS bandwidth controller, Paul Turner, discovered that using jump labels reduced the branch count and the instruction count, but did not reduce the cycle count or wall time. I noticed that having the jump_label.o included in the kernel but not used in any way still caused this increase in cycle count and wall time. Thus, I moved jump_label.o in the kernel/Makefile, thus changing the link order, and presumably moving it out of hot icache areas. This brought down the cycle count/time as expected. In addition to Paul's testing, I've tested the patch using a single 'static_branch()' in the getppid() path, and basically running tight loops of calls to getppid(). Here are my results for the branch disabled case: With jump labels turned on (CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL), branch disabled: Performance counter stats for 'bash -c /tmp/getppid;true' (50 runs): 3,969,510,217 instructions # 0.864 IPC ( +-0.000% ) 4,592,334,954 cycles ( +- 0.046% ) 751,634,470 branches ( +- 0.000% ) 1.722635797 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.046% ) Jump labels turned off (CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL not set), branch disabled: Performance counter stats for 'bash -c /tmp/getppid;true' (50 runs): 4,009,611,846 instructions # 0.867 IPC ( +-0.000% ) 4,622,210,580 cycles ( +- 0.012% ) 771,662,904 branches ( +- 0.000% ) 1.734341454 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.022% ) Signed-off-by: Jason Baron <jbaron@redhat.com> Cc: rth@redhat.com Cc: a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl Cc: rostedt@goodmis.org Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20110805204040.GG2522@redhat.com Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Tested-by: Paul Turner <pjt@google.com>

2011-08-03Boot up with usermodehelper disabledLinus Torvalds
The core device layer sends tons of uevent notifications for each device it finds, and if the kernel has been built with a non-empty CONFIG_UEVENT_HELPER_PATH that will make us try to execute the usermode helper binary for all these events very early in the boot. Not only won't the root filesystem even be mounted at that point, we literally won't have necessarily even initialized all the process handling data structures at that point, which causes no end of silly problems even when the usermode helper doesn't actually succeed in executing. So just use our existing infrastructure to disable the usermodehelpers to make the kernel start out with them disabled. We enable them when we've at least initialized stuff a bit.

2011-07-28irq: Track the owner of irq descriptorSebastian Andrzej Siewior
Interrupt descriptors can be allocated from modules. The interrupts are used by other modules, but we have no refcount on the module which provides the interrupts and there is no way to establish one on the device level as the interrupt using module is agnostic to the fact that the interrupt is provided by a module rather than by some builtin interrupt controller. To prevent removal of the interrupt providing module, we can track the owner of the interrupt descriptor, which also provides the relevant irq chip functions in the irq descriptor. request/setup_irq() can now acquire a refcount on the owner module to prevent unloading. free_irq() drops the refcount.

2011-07-28irq: Always set IRQF_ONESHOT if no primary handler is specifiedSebastian Andrzej Siewior
If no primary handler is specified then a default one is assigned which always returns IRQ_WAKE_THREAD. This handler requires the IRQF_ONESHOT flag on LEVEL / EIO typed irqs because the source of interrupt is not disabled. Since it is required for those users and there is no difference for others it makes sense to add this flag unconditionally.

2011-07-28dt/irq: add irq_domain_generate_simple() helperGrant Likely
irq_domain_generate_simple() is an easy way to generate an irq translation domain for simple irq controllers. It assumes a flat 1:1 mapping from hardware irq number to an offset of the first linux irq number assigned to the controller Signed-off-by: Grant Likely <grant.likely@secretlab.ca>
2011-07-28irq: add irq_domain translation infrastructureGrant Likely
This patch adds irq_domain infrastructure for translating from hardware irq numbers to linux irqs. This is particularly important for architectures adding device tree support because the current implementation (excluding PowerPC and SPARC) cannot handle translation for more than a single interrupt controller. irq_domain supports device tree translation for any number of interrupt controllers. This patch converts x86, Microblaze, ARM and MIPS to use irq_domain for device tree irq translation. x86 is untested beyond compiling it, irq_domain is enabled for MIPS and Microblaze, but the old behaviour is preserved until the core code is modified to actually register an irq_domain yet. On ARM it works and is required for much of the new ARM device tree board support. PowerPC has /not/ been converted to use this new infrastructure. It is still missing some features before it can replace the virq infrastructure already in powerpc (see documentation on irq_domain_map/unmap for details). Followup patches will add the missing pieces and migrate PowerPC to use irq_domain. SPARC has its own method of managing interrupts from the device tree and is unaffected by this change.
