kernel/fork.c:copy_process(): unify CLONE_THREAD-or-thread_group_leader code
Cleanup and preparation for the next changes. Move the "if (clone_flags & CLONE_THREAD)" code down under "if (likely(p->pid))" and turn it into into the "else" branch. This makes the process/thread initialization more symmetrical and removes one check. Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Cc: "Eric W.

fork: reorder permissions when violating number of processes limits
When a task is attempting to violate the RLIMIT_NPROC limit we have a check to see if the task is sufficiently priviledged. The check first looks at CAP_SYS_ADMIN, then CAP_SYS_RESOURCE, then if the task is uid=0. A result is that tasks which are allowed by the uid=0 check are first checked against the security subsystem. This results in the security subsystem auditting a denial for sys_admin and sys_resource and then the task passing the uid=0 check. This patch rearranges the code to first check uid=0, since if we pass that we shouldn't hit the security system at all. We then check sys_resource, since it is the smallest capability which will solve the problem. Lastly we check the fallback everything cap_sysadmin. We don't want to give this capability many places since it is so powerful. This will eliminate many of the false positive/needless denial messages we get when a root task tries to violate the nproc limit. (note that kthreads count against root, so on a sufficiently large machine we can actually get past the default limits before any userspace tasks are launched.)

ptrace: add ability to get/set signal-blocked mask
crtools uses a parasite code for dumping processes. The parasite code is injected into a process with help PTRACE_SEIZE. Currently crtools blocks signals from a parasite code. If a process has pending signals, crtools wait while a process handles these signals. This method is not suitable for stopped tasks. A stopped task can have a few pending signals, when we will try to execute a parasite code, we will need to drop SIGSTOP, but all other signals must remain pending, because a state of processes must not be changed during checkpointing. This patch adds two ptrace commands to set/get signal-blocked mask. I think gdb can use this commands too.

kprobes: handle empty/invalid input to debugfs "enabled" file
When writing invalid input to 'debug/kprobes/enabled' it'll silently be ignored. Even worse, when writing an empty string to this file, the outcome is purely random as the switch statement will make its decision based on the value of an uninitialized stack variable.

Merge tag 'pm+acpi-3.11-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm
Pull power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"This time the total number of ACPI commits is slightly greater than
the number of cpufreq commits, but Viresh Kumar (who works on cpufreq)
remains the most active patch submitter.
To me, the most significant change is the addition of offline/online
device operations to the driver core (with the Greg's blessing) and
the related modifications of the ACPI core hotplug code. Next are the
freezer updates from Colin Cross that should make the freezing of
tasks a bit less heavy weight.
We also have a couple of regression fixes, a number of fixes for
issues that have not been identified as regressions, two new drivers
and a bunch of cleanups all over.
Highlights:
- Hotplug changes to support graceful hot-removal failures.
It sometimes is necessary to fail device hot-removal operations
gracefully if they cannot be carried out completely. For example,
if memory from a memory module being hot-removed has been allocated
for the kernel's own use and cannot be moved elsewhere, it's
desirable to fail the hot-removal operation in a graceful way
rather than to crash the kernel, but currenty a success or a kernel
crash are the only possible outcomes of an attempted memory
hot-removal. Needless to say, that is not a very attractive
alternative and it had to be addressed.
However, in order to make it work for memory, I first had to make
it work for CPUs and for this purpose I needed to modify the ACPI
processor driver. It's been split into two parts, a resident one
handling the low-level initialization/cleanup and a modular one
playing the actual driver's role (but it binds to the CPU system
device objects rather than to the ACPI device objects representing
processors). That's been sort of like a live brain surgery on a
patient who's riding a bike.
So this is a little scary, but since we found and fixed a couple of
regressions it caused to happen during the early linux-next testing
(a month ago), nobody has complained.
As a bonus we remove some duplicated ACPI hotplug code, because the
ACPI-based CPU hotplug is now going to use the common ACPI hotplug
code.
- Lighter weight freezing of tasks.
These changes from Colin Cross and Mandeep Singh Baines are
targeted at making the freezing of tasks a bit less heavy weight
operation. They reduce the number of tasks woken up every time
during the freezing, by using the observation that the freezer
simply doesn't need to wake up some of them and wait for them all
to call refrigerator(). The time needed for the freezer to decide
to report a failure is reduced too.
Also reintroduced is the check causing a lockdep warining to
trigger when try_to_freeze() is called with locks held (which is
generally unsafe and shouldn't happen).
- cpufreq updates
First off, a commit from Srivatsa S Bhat fixes a resume regression
introduced during the 3.10 cycle causing some cpufreq sysfs
attributes to return wrong values to user space after resume. The
fix is kind of fresh, but also it's pretty obvious once Srivatsa
has identified the root cause.
Second, we have a new freqdomain_cpus sysfs attribute for the
acpi-cpufreq driver to provide information previously available via
related_cpus. From Lan Tianyu.
Finally, we fix a number of issues, mostly related to the
CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notifier and cpufreq Kconfig options and clean
up some code. The majority of changes from Viresh Kumar with bits
from Jacob Shin, Heiko Stübner, Xiaoguang Chen, Ezequiel Garcia,
Arnd Bergmann, and Tang Yuantian.
- ACPICA update
A usual bunch of updates from the ACPICA upstream.
During the 3.4 cycle we introduced support for ACPI 5 extended
sleep registers, but they are only supposed to be used if the
HW-reduced mode bit is set in the FADT flags and the code attempted
to use them without checking that bit. That caused suspend/resume
regressions to happen on some systems. Fix from Lv Zheng causes
those registers to be used only if the HW-reduced mode bit is set.
Apart from this some other ACPICA bugs are fixed and code cleanups
are made by Bob Moore, Tomasz Nowicki, Lv Zheng, Chao Guan, and
Zhang Rui.
- cpuidle updates
New driver for Xilinx Zynq processors is added by Michal Simek.
Multidriver support simplification, addition of some missing
kerneldoc comments and Kconfig-related fixes come from Daniel
Lezcano.
- ACPI power management updates
Changes to make suspend/resume work correctly in Xen guests from
Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk, sparse warning fix from Fengguang Wu and
cleanups and fixes of the ACPI device power state selection
routine.
- ACPI documentation updates
Some previously missing pieces of ACPI documentation are added by
Lv Zheng and Aaron Lu (hopefully, that will help people to
uderstand how the ACPI subsystem works) and one outdated doc is
updated by Hanjun Guo.
- Assorted ACPI updates
We finally nailed down the IA-64 issue that was the reason for
reverting commit

posix_timers: fix racy timer delta caching on task exit
When a task exits, we perform a caching of the remaining cputime delta
before expiring of its timers.
This is done from the following places:
* When the task is reaped. We iterate through its list of
posix cpu timers and store the remaining timer delta to
the timer struct instead of the absolute value.
(See posix_cpu_timers_exit() / posix_cpu_timers_exit_group() )
* When we call posix_cpu_timer_get() or posix_cpu_timer_schedule().
If the timer's task is considered dying when watched from these
places, the same conversion from absolute to relative expiry time
is performed. Then the given task's reference is released.
(See clear_dead_task() ).
The relevance of this caching is questionable but this is another
and deeper debate.
The big issue here is that these two sources of caching don't mix
up very well together.
More specifically, the caching can easily be done twice, resulting
in a wrong delta as it gets spuriously substracted a second time by
the elapsed clock. This can happen in the following scenario:
1) The task exits and gets reaped: we call posix_cpu_timers_exit()
and the absolute timer expiry values are converted to a relative
delta.
2) timer_gettime() -> posix_cpu_timer_get() is called and relies on
clear_dead_task() because tsk->exit_state == EXIT_DEAD.
The delta gets substracted again by the elapsed clock and we return
a wrong result.
To fix this, just remove the caching done on task reaping time. It
doesn't bring much value on its own. The caching done from
posix_cpu_timer_get/schedule is enough.
And it would also be hard to get it really right: we could make it put and
clear the target task in the timer struct so that readers know if they are
dealing with a relative cached of absolute value. But it would be racy.
The only safe way to do it would be to lock the itimer->it_lock so that we
know nobody reads the cputime expiry value while we modify it and its
target task reference. Doing so would involve some funny workarounds to
avoid circular lock against the sighand lock. There is just no reason to
maintain this.
The user visible effect of this patch can be observed by running the
following code: it creates a subthread that launches a posix cputimer
which expires after 10 seconds. But then the subthread only busy loops for 2
seconds and exits. The parent reaps the subthread and read the timer value.
Its expected value should the be the initial timer's expiration value
minus the cputime elapsed in the subthread. Roughly 10 - 2 = 8 seconds:
#include <sys/time.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <time.h>
#include <pthread.h>
static timer_t id;
static struct itimerspec val = { .it_value.tv_sec = 10, }, new;
static void *thread(void *unused)
{
int err;
struct timeval start, end, diff;
timer_create(CLOCK_THREAD_CPUTIME_ID, NULL, &id);
if (err < 0) {
perror("Can't create timer\n");
return NULL;
}
/* Arm 10 sec timer */
err = timer_settime(id, 0, &val, NULL);
if (err < 0) {
perror("Can't set timer\n");
return NULL;
}
/* Exit after 2 seconds of execution */
gettimeofday(&start, NULL);
do {
gettimeofday(&end, NULL);
timersub(&end, &start, &diff);
} while (diff.tv_sec < 2);
return NULL;
}
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
pthread_t pthread;
int err;
err = pthread_create(&pthread, NULL, thread, NULL);
if (err) {
perror("Can't create thread\n");
return -1;
}
pthread_join(pthread, NULL);
/* Just wait a little bit to make sure the child got reaped */
sleep(1);
err = timer_gettime(id, &new);
if (err)
perror("Can't get timer value\n");
printf("%d %ld\n", new.it_value.tv_sec, new.it_value.tv_nsec);
return 0;
}
Before the patch:
$ ./posix_cpu_timers
6 2278074
After the patch:
$ ./posix_cpu_timers
8 1158766
Before the patch, the elapsed time got two more seconds spuriously accounted.

posix-timers: correctly get dying task time sample in posix_cpu_timer_schedule()
In order to re-arm a timer after it fired, we take a sample of the current
process or thread cputime.
If the task is dying though, we don't arm anything but we cache the
remaining timer expiration delta for further reads.
Something similar is performed in posix_cpu_timer_get() but here we forget
to take the process wide cputime sample before caching it.
As a result we are storing random stack content, leading every further
reads of that timer to return junk values.
Fix this by taking the appropriate sample in the case of process wide
timers.
This probably doesn't matter much in practice because, at this stage, the
thread is the last one in the group and we reached exit_notify(). This
implies that we called exit_itimers() and there should be no more timers
to handle for that task.
So this is likely dead code anyway but let's fix the current logic
and the warning that came along:
kernel/posix-cpu-timers.c: In function 'posix_cpu_timer_schedule':
kernel/posix-cpu-timers.c:1127: warning: 'now' may be used uninitialized in this function
Then we can start to think further about cleaning up that code.

refcnt in that aspect. For example, block-cgroup's css refcnting
was showing up a lot in Mikulaus's device-mapper scalability work
and this should alleviate it.
- cgroup subtree iterator has been updated so that RCU read lock can

Pull workqueue changes from Tejun Heo: "Surprisingly, Lai and I didn't break too many things implementing custom pools and stuff last time around and there aren't any follow-up changes necessary at this point. The only change in this pull request is Viresh's patches to make some per-cpu workqueues to behave as unbound workqueues dependent on a boot param whose default can be configured via a config option. This leads to higher processing overhead / lower bandwidth as more work items are bounced across CPUs; however, it can lead to noticeable powersave in certain configurations - ~10% w/ idlish constant workload on a big.LITTLE configuration according to Viresh. This is because per-cpu workqueues interfere with how the scheduler perceives whether or not each CPU is idle by forcing pinned tasks on them, which makes the scheduler's power-aware scheduling decisions less effective. Its effectiveness is likely less pronounced on homogenous configurations and this type of optimization can probably be made automatic; however, the changes are pretty minimal and the affected workqueues are clearly marked, so it's an easy gain for some configurations for the time being with pretty unintrusive changes." * 'for-3.11' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq: fbcon: queue work on power efficient wq block: queue work on power efficient wq PHYLIB: queue work on system_power_efficient_wq workqueue: Add system wide power_efficient workqueues workqueues: Introduce new flag WQ_POWER_EFFICIENT for power oriented workqueues |

Merge branch 'core-mutexes-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull WW mutex support from Ingo Molnar:
"This tree adds support for wound/wait style locks, which the graphics
guys would like to make use of in the TTM graphics subsystem.
Wound/wait mutexes are used when other multiple lock acquisitions of a
similar type can be done in an arbitrary order. The deadlock handling
used here is called wait/wound in the RDBMS literature: The older
tasks waits until it can acquire the contended lock. The younger
tasks needs to back off and drop all the locks it is currently
holding, ie the younger task is wounded.
See this LWN.net description of W/W mutexes:
https://lwn.net/Articles/548909/
The comments there outline specific usecases for this facility (which
have already been implemented for the DRM tree).
Also see Documentation/ww-mutex-design.txt for more details"
