Roland McGrath ae6d2ed7bb signals: tracehook_notify_jctl change
This changes tracehook_notify_jctl() so it's called with the siglock held,
and changes its argument and return value definition.  These clean-ups
make it a better fit for what new tracing hooks need to check.

Tracing needs the siglock here, held from the time TASK_STOPPED was set,
to avoid potential SIGCONT races if it wants to allow any blocking in its
tracing hooks.

This also folds the finish_stop() function into its caller
do_signal_stop().  The function is short, called only once and only
unconditionally.  It aids readability to fold it in.

Vitaly Mayatskikh b6fe2d117e wait_noreap_copyout(): check for ->wo_info != NULL
Current behaviour of sys_waitid() looks odd.  If user passes infop ==
NULL, sys_waitid() returns success.  When user additionally specifies flag
WNOWAIT, sys_waitid() returns -EFAULT on the same conditions.  When user
combines WNOWAIT with WCONTINUED, sys_waitid() again returns success.

This patch adds check for ->wo_info in wait_noreap_copyout().

User-visible change: starting from this commit, sys_waitid() always checks
infop != NULL and does not fail if it is NULL.

Vitaly Mayatskikh dfe16dfa4a do_wait: fix sys_waitid()-specific behaviour
do_wait() checks ->wo_info to figure out who is the caller.  If it's not
NULL the caller should be sys_waitid(), in that case do_wait() fixes up
the retval or zeros ->wo_info, depending on retval from underlying
function.

This is bug: user can pass ->wo_info == NULL and sys_waitid() will return
incorrect value.

man 2 waitid says:

	waitid(): returns 0 on success

Test-case:

	int main(void)
	{
		if (fork())
			assert(waitid(P_ALL, 0, NULL, WEXITED) == 0);

		return 0;
	}

Result:

	Assertion `waitid(P_ALL, 0, ((void *)0), 4) == 0' failed.

Move that code to sys_waitid().

User-visible change: sys_waitid() will return 0 on success, either
infop is set or not.

Note, there's another bug in wait_noreap_copyout() which affects
return value of sys_waitid(). It will be fixed in next patch.

Oleg Nesterov 989264f464 do_wait-wakeup-optimization: simplify task_pid_type()
task_pid_type() is only used by eligible_pid() which has to check wo_type
!= PIDTYPE_MAX anyway.  Remove this check from task_pid_type() and factor
out ->pids[type] access, this shrinks .text a bit and simplifies the code.

The matches the behaviour of other similar helpers, say get_task_pid().
The caller must ensure that pid_type is valid, not the callee.

Oleg Nesterov 5c01ba49e6 do_wait-wakeup-optimization: fix child_wait_callback()->eligible_child() usage
child_wait_callback()->eligible_child() is not right, we can miss the
wakeup if the task was detached before __wake_up_parent() and the caller
of do_wait() didn't use __WALL.

Move ->wo_pid checks from eligible_child() to the new helper,
eligible_pid(), and change child_wait_callback() to use it instead of
eligible_child().

Note: actually I think it would be better to fix the __WCLONE check in
eligible_child(), it doesn't look exactly right.  But it is not clear what
is the supposed behaviour, and any change is user-visible.

Oleg Nesterov b4fe51823d do_wait() wakeup optimization: child_wait_callback: check __WNOTHREAD case
Suggested by Roland.

do_wait(__WNOTHREAD) can only succeed if the caller is either ptracer, or
it is ->real_parent and the child is not traced. IOW, caller == p->parent
otherwise we should not wake up.

Change child_wait_callback() to check this. Ratan reports the workload with
CPU load >99% caused by unnecessary wakeups, should be fixed by this patch.

Oleg Nesterov 0b7570e77f do_wait() wakeup optimization: change __wake_up_parent() to use filtered wakeup
Ratan Nalumasu reported that in a process with many threads doing
unnecessary wakeups.  Every waiting thread in the process wakes up to loop
through the children and see that the only ones it cares about are still
not ready.

Now that we have struct wait_opts we can change do_wait/__wake_up_parent
to use filtered wakeups.

We can make child_wait_callback() more clever later, right now it only
checks eligible_child().

Oleg Nesterov a7f0765edf ptrace: __ptrace_detach: do __wake_up_parent() if we reap the tracee
The bug is old, it wasn't cause by recent changes.

Test case:

	static void *tfunc(void *arg)
	{
		int pid = (long)arg;

		assert(ptrace(PTRACE_ATTACH, pid, NULL, NULL) == 0);
		kill(pid, SIGKILL);

		sleep(1);
		return NULL;
	}

	int main(void)
	{
		pthread_t th;
		long pid = fork();

		if (!pid)
			pause();

		signal(SIGCHLD, SIG_IGN);
		assert(pthread_create(&th, NULL, tfunc, (void*)pid) == 0);

		int r = waitpid(-1, NULL, __WNOTHREAD);
		printf("waitpid: %d %m\n", r);

		return 0;
	}

Before the patch this program hangs, after this patch waitpid() correctly
fails with errno == -ECHILD.

The problem is, __ptrace_detach() reaps the EXIT_ZOMBIE tracee if its
->real_parent is our sub-thread and we ignore SIGCHLD.  But in this case
we should wake up other threads which can sleep in do_wait().

Balbir Singh f64c3f5494 memory controller: soft limit organize cgroups
Organize cgroups over soft limit in a RB-Tree

Introduce an RB-Tree for storing memory cgroups that are over their soft
limit.  The overall goal is to

1. Add a memory cgroup to the RB-Tree when the soft limit is exceeded.
   We are careful about updates, updates take place only after a particular
   time interval has passed
2. We remove the node from the RB-Tree when the usage goes below the soft
   limit

The next set of patches will exploit the RB-Tree to get the group that is
over its soft limit by the largest amount and reclaim from it, when we
face memory contention.

Balbir Singh 296c81d89f memory controller: soft limit interface
Add an interface to allow get/set of soft limits.  Soft limits for memory
plus swap controller (memsw) is currently not supported.  Resource
counters have been enhanced to support soft limits and new type
RES_SOFT_LIMIT has been added.  Unlike hard limits, soft limits can be
directly set and do not need any reclaim or checks before setting them to
a newer value.

Kamezawa-San raised a question as to whether soft limit should belong to
res_counter.  Since all resources understand the basic concepts of hard
and soft limits, it is justified to add soft limits here.  Soft limits are
a generic resource usage feature, even file system quotas support soft
limits.

Ben Blum be367d0992 cgroups: let ss->can_attach and ss->attach do whole threadgroups at a time
Alter the ss->can_attach and ss->attach functions to be able to deal with
a whole threadgroup at a time, for use in cgroup_attach_proc.  (This is a
pre-patch to cgroup-procs-writable.patch.)

Currently, new mode of the attach function can only tell the subsystem
about the old cgroup of the threadgroup leader.  No subsystem currently
needs that information for each thread that's being moved, but if one were
to be added (for example, one that counts tasks within a group) this bit
would need to be reworked a bit to tell the subsystem the right
information.

Ben Blum 72a8cb30d1 cgroups: ensure correct concurrent opening/reading of pidlists across pid namespaces
Previously there was the problem in which two processes from different pid
namespaces reading the tasks or procs file could result in one process
seeing results from the other's namespace.  Rather than one pidlist for
each file in a cgroup, we now keep a list of pidlists keyed by namespace
and file type (tasks versus procs) in which entries are placed on demand.
Each pidlist has its own lock, and that the pidlists themselves are passed
around in the seq_file's private pointer means we don't have to touch the
cgroup or its master list except when creating and destroying entries.

Paul Menage 8f3ff20862 cgroups: revert "cgroups: fix pid namespace bug"
The following series adds a "cgroup.procs" file to each cgroup that
reports unique tgids rather than pids, and allows all threads in a
threadgroup to be atomically moved to a new cgroup.

The subsystem "attach" interface is modified to support attaching whole
threadgroups at a time, which could introduce potential problems if any
subsystem were to need to access the old cgroup of every thread being
moved.  The attach interface may need to be revised if this becomes the
case.

Also added is functionality for read/write locking all CLONE_THREAD
fork()ing within a threadgroup, by means of an rwsem that lives in the
sighand_struct, for per-threadgroup-ness and also for sharing a cacheline
with the sighand's atomic count.  This scheme should introduce no extra
overhead in the fork path when there's no contention.

The final patch reveals potential for a race when forking before a
subsystem's attach function is called - one potential solution in case any
subsystem has this problem is to hang on to the group's fork mutex through
the attach() calls, though no subsystem yet demonstrates need for an
extended critical section.

    cgroups: fix pid namespace bug

This is in preparation for some clashing cgroups changes that subsume the
original commit's functionaliy.

The original commit fixed a pid namespace bug which Ben Blum fixed
independently (in the same way, but with different code) as part of a
series of patches.  I played around with trying to reconcile Ben's patch
series with Li's patch, but concluded that it was simpler to just revert
Li's, given that Ben's patch series contained essentially the same fix.

Paul Menage 2c6ab6d200 cgroups: allow cgroup hierarchies to be created with no bound subsystems
This patch removes the restriction that a cgroup hierarchy must have at
least one bound subsystem.  The mount option "none" is treated as an
explicit request for no bound subsystems.

A hierarchy with no subsystems can be useful for plain task tracking, and
is also a step towards the support for multiply-bindable subsystems.

As part of this change, the hierarchy id is no longer calculated from the
bitmask of subsystems in the hierarchy (since this is not guaranteed to be
unique) but is allocated via an ida.  Reference counts on cgroups from
css_set objects are now taken explicitly one per hierarchy, rather than
one per subsystem.

Example usage:

mount -t cgroup -o none,name=foo cgroup /mnt/cgroup

Based on the "no-op"/"none" subsystem concept proposed by

Paul Menage 7717f7ba92 cgroups: add a back-pointer from struct cg_cgroup_link to struct cgroup
Currently the cgroups code makes the assumption that the subsystem
pointers in a struct css_set uniquely identify the hierarchy->cgroup
mappings associated with the css_set; and there's no way to directly
identify the associated set of cgroups other than by indirecting through
the appropriate subsystem state pointers.

This patch removes the need for that assumption by adding a back-pointer
from struct cg_cgroup_link object to its associated cgroup; this allows
the set of cgroups to be determined by traversing the cg_links list in
the struct css_set.

a hierarchy's name cannot be changed by a remount operation.

Zhaolei 57f1f0874f time: add function to convert between calendar time and broken-down time for universal use
There are many similar code in kernel for one object: convert time between
calendar time and broken-down time.

Here is some source I found:
  fs/ncpfs/dir.c
  fs/smbfs/proc.c
  fs/fat/misc.c
  fs/udf/udftime.c
  fs/cifs/netmisc.c
  net/netfilter/xt_time.c
  drivers/scsi/ips.c
  drivers/input/misc/hp_sdc_rtc.c
  drivers/rtc/rtc-lib.c
  arch/ia64/hp/sim/boot/fw-emu.c
  arch/m68k/mac/misc.c
  arch/powerpc/kernel/time.c
  arch/parisc/include/asm/rtc.h
  ...

We can make a common function for this type of conversion, At least we
can get following benefit:

1: Make kernel simple and unify
2: Easy to fix bug in converting code
3: Reduce clone of code in future
   For example, I'm trying to make ftrace display walltime,
   this patch will make me easy.

This code is based on code from glibc-2.6

Eric Paris 939cbf260c Audit: send signal info if selinux is disabled
Audit will not respond to signal requests if selinux is disabled since it is
unable to translate the 0 sid from the sending process to a context.  This
patch just doesn't send the context info if there isn't any.
