We have HARD_MSGMAX lower on 64bit than on 32bit, since usually 64bit
machines have more memory than 32bit machines.
Making it higher on 64bit seems reasonable, and keep the original number
on 32bit.

If multiple simple decrements on the same semaphore are pending, then the
current code scans all decrement operations, even if the semaphore value
is already 0.
The patch optimizes that: if the semaphore value is 0, then there is no
need to scan the q->alter entries.
Note that this is a common case: It happens if 100 decrements by one are
pending and now an increment by one increases the semaphore value from 0
to 1. Without this patch, all 100 entries are scanned. With the patch,
only one entry is scanned, then woken up. Then the new rule triggers and
the scanning is aborted, without looking at the remaining 99 tasks.
With this patch, single sop increment/decrement by 1 are now O(1).

sysv sem has the concept of semaphore arrays that consist out of multiple
semaphores. Atomic operations that affect multiple semaphores are
supported.
The patch optimizes single semaphore operation calls that affect only one
semaphore: It's not necessary to scan all pending operations, it is
sufficient to scan the per-semaphore list.
The idea is from Nick Piggin version of an ipc sem improvement, the
implementation is different: The code tries to keep as much common code as
possible.
As the result, the patch is simpler, but optimizes fewer cases.

Based on Nick's findings:
sysv sem has the concept of semaphore arrays that consist out of multiple
semaphores. Atomic operations that affect multiple semaphores are
supported.
The patch is the first step for optimizing simple, single semaphore
operations: In addition to the global list of all pending operations, a
2nd, per-semaphore list with the simple operations is added.
Note: this patch does not make sense by itself, the new list is used
nowhere.

Reduce the amount of scanning of the list of pending semaphore operations:
If try_atomic_semop failed, then no changes were applied. Thus no need to
restart.
Additionally, this patch correct an incorrect comment: It's possible to
wait for arbitrary semaphore values (do a dec by <x>, wait-for-zero, inc
by <x> in one atomic operation)
Both changes are from Nick Piggin, the patch is the result of a different
split of the individual changes.

The strange sysv semaphore wakeup scheme has a kind of busy-wait lock
involved, which could deadlock if preemption is enabled during the "lock".
It is an implementation detail (due to a spinlock being held) that this is
actually the case. However if "spinlocks" are made preemptible, or if the
sem lock is changed to a sleeping lock for example, then the wakeup would
become buggy. So this might be a bugfix for -rt kernels.
Imagine waker being preempted by wakee and never clearing IN_WAKEUP -- if
wakee has higher RT priority then there is a priority inversion deadlock.
Even if there is not a priority inversion to cause a deadlock, then there
is still time wasted spinning.

Around a month ago, there was some discussion about an improvement of the
sysv sem algorithm: Most (at least: some important) users only use simple
semaphore operations, therefore it's worthwile to optimize this use case.
This patch:
Move last looked up sem_undo struct to the head of the task's undo list.
Attempt to move common entries to the front of the list so search time is
reduced. This reduces lookup_undo on oprofile of problematic SAP workload
by 30% (see patch 4 for a description of SAP workload).

We have apparently had a memory leak since
7ca7e564e0 "ipc: store ipcs into IDRs" in
2007. The idr of which 3 exist for each ipc namespace is never freed.
This patch simply frees them when the ipcns is freed. I don't believe any
idr_remove() are done from rcu (and could therefore be delayed until after
this idr_destroy()), so the patch should be safe. Some quick testing
showed no harm, and the memory leak fixed.
Caught by kmemleak.

Change send_signal() to use si_fromuser(). From now SEND_SIG_NOINFO
triggers the "from_ancestor_ns" check.
This fixes reparent_thread()->group_send_sig_info(pdeath_signal)
behaviour, before this patch send_signal() does not detect the
cross-namespace case when the child of the dying parent belongs to the
sub-namespace.
This patch can affect the behaviour of send_sig(), kill_pgrp() and
kill_pid() when the caller sends the signal to the sub-namespace with
"priv == 0" but surprisingly all callers seem to use them correctly,
including disassociate_ctty(on_exit).
Except: drivers/staging/comedi/drivers/addi-data/*.c incorrectly use
send_sig(priv => 0). But his is minor and should be fixed anyway.

No changes in compiled code. The patch adds the new helper, si_fromuser()
and changes check_kill_permission() to use this helper.
The real effect of this patch is that from now we "officially" consider
SEND_SIG_NOINFO signal as "from user-space" signals. This is already true
if we look at the code which uses SEND_SIG_NOINFO, except __send_signal()
has another opinion - see the next patch.
The naming of these special SEND_SIG_XXX siginfo's is really bad
imho. From __send_signal()'s pov they mean
SEND_SIG_NOINFO from user
SEND_SIG_PRIV from kernel
SEND_SIG_FORCED no info

Suggested by Roland.
Unlike powepc, x86 always calls tracehook_report_syscall_exit(step) with
step = 0, and sends the trap by hand.
This results in unnecessary SIGTRAP when PTRACE_SINGLESTEP follows the
syscall-exit stop.
Change syscall_trace_leave() to pass the correct "step" argument to
tracehook and remove the send_sigtrap() logic.

Change tracehook_report_syscall_exit() to look at step flag and send the
trap signal if needed.
This change affects ia64, microblaze, parisc, powerpc, sh. They pass
nonzero "step" argument to tracehook but since it was ignored the tracee
reports via ptrace_notify(), this is not right and not consistent.
- PTRACE_SETSIGINFO doesn't work
- if the tracer resumes the tracee with signr != 0 the new signal
is generated rather than delivering it
- If PT_TRACESYSGOOD is set the tracee reports the wrong exit_code
I don't have a powerpc machine, but I think this test-case should see the
difference:
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/ptrace.h>
#include <sys/wait.h>
#include <assert.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int main(void)
{
int pid, status;
if (!(pid = fork())) {
assert(ptrace(PTRACE_TRACEME) == 0);
kill(getpid(), SIGSTOP);
getppid();
return 0;
}
assert(pid == wait(&status));
assert(ptrace(PTRACE_SETOPTIONS, pid, 0, PTRACE_O_TRACESYSGOOD) == 0);
assert(ptrace(PTRACE_SYSCALL, pid, 0,0) == 0);
assert(pid == wait(&status));

Currently there is no way to synthesize a single-stepping trap in the

siginfo_t, arch/ can can override it.
Architetures which implement user_enable_single_step() should add
user_single_step_siginfo() also.

If the tracee calls fork() after PTRACE_SINGLESTEP, the forked child
starts with TIF_SINGLESTEP/X86_EFLAGS_TF bits copied from ptraced parent.
This is not right, especially when the new child is not auto-attaced: in
this case it is killed by SIGTRAP.
Change copy_process() to call user_disable_single_step(). Tested on x86.
