* 'writable_limits' of git://decibel.fi.muni.cz/~xslaby/linux:
unistd: add __NR_prlimit64 syscall numbers
rlimits: implement prlimit64 syscall
rlimits: switch more rlimit syscalls to do_prlimit
rlimits: redo do_setrlimit to more generic do_prlimit
rlimits: add rlimit64 structure
rlimits: do security check under task_lock
rlimits: allow setrlimit to non-current tasks
rlimits: split sys_setrlimit
rlimits: selinux, do rlimits changes under task_lock
rlimits: make sure ->rlim_max never grows in sys_setrlimit
rlimits: add task_struct to update_rlimit_cpu
rlimits: security, add task_struct to setrlimit
Fix up various system call number conflicts. We not only added fanotify
system calls in the meantime, but asm-generic/unistd.h added a wait4
along with a range of reserved per-architecture system calls.
Add task_struct as a parameter to update_rlimit_cpu to be able to set
rlimit_cpu of different task than current.

fastpath_timer_check()->thread_group_cputimer() is racy and
unneeded.
It is racy because another thread can clear ->running before
thread_group_cputimer() takes cputimer->lock. In this case
thread_group_cputimer() will set ->running = true again and call
thread_group_cputime(). But since we do not hold tasklist or
siglock, we can race with fork/exit and copy the wrong results
into cputimer->cputime.
It is unneeded because if ->running == true we can just use
the numbers in cputimer->cputime we already have.
Change fastpath_timer_check() to copy cputimer->cputime into
the local variable under cputimer->lock. We do not re-check
->running under cputimer->lock, run_posix_cpu_timers() does
this check later.
Note: we can add more optimizations on top of this change.

run_posix_cpu_timers() doesn't work if current has already passed
exit_notify(). This was needed to prevent the races with do_wait().
Since ea6d290c ->signal is always valid and can't go away. We can
remove the "tsk->exit_state == 0" in fastpath_timer_check() and
convert run_posix_cpu_timers() to use lock_task_sighand().
Note: it makes sense to take group_leader's sighand instead, the
sub-thread still uses CPU after release_task(). But we need more
changes to do this.

thread_group_cputime() looks as if it is rcu-safe, but in fact this
was wrong until ea6d290c which pins task->signal to task_struct.
It checks ->sighand != NULL under rcu, but this can't help if ->signal
can go away. Fortunately the caller either holds ->siglock, or it is
fastpath_timer_check() which uses current and checks exit_state == 0.
- Since ea6d290c commit tsk->signal is stable, we can read it first
and avoid the initialization from INIT_CPUTIME.
- Even if tsk->signal is always valid, we still have to check it
is safe to use next_thread() under rcu_read_lock(). Currently
the code checks ->sighand != NULL, change it to use pid_alive()
which is commonly used to ensure the task wasn't unhashed before
we take rcu_read_lock().
Add the comment to explain this check.
- Change the main loop to use the while_each_thread() helper.

Preparation to make task->signal immutable, no functional changes.
posix-cpu-timers.c checks task->signal != NULL to ensure this task is
alive and didn't pass __exit_signal(). This is correct but we are going
to change the lifetime rules for ->signal and never reset this pointer.
Change the code to check ->sighand instead, it doesn't matter which
pointer we check under tasklist, they both are cleared simultaneously.
As Roland pointed out, some of these changes are not strictly needed and
probably it makes sense to revert them later, when ->signal will be pinned
to task_struct. But this patch tries to ensure the subsequent changes in
fork/exit can't make any visible impact on posix cpu timers.

We can optimize and simplify things taking into account signal->cputimer
is always running when we have configured any process wide cpu timer.
In check_process_timers(), we don't have to check if new updated value of
signal->cputime_expires is smaller, since we maintain new first expiration
time ({prof,virt,sched}_expires) in code flow and all other writes to
expiration cache are protected by sighand->siglock .

* 'timers-fixes-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip:
time: Fix accumulation bug triggered by long delay.
posix-cpu-timers: Reset expire cache when no timer is running
timer stats: Fix del_timer_sync() and try_to_del_timer_sync()
clockevents: Sanitize min_delta_ns adjustment and prevent overflows
Spread p->sighand->siglock locking scope to make sure that
fastpath_timer_check() never iterates over all threads. Without
locking there is small possibility that signal->cputimer will stop
running while we write values to signal->cputime_expires.
Calling thread_group_cputime() from fastpath_timer_check() is not only
bad because it is slow, also it is racy with __exit_signal() which can
lead to invalid signal->{s,u}time values.

When a process deletes cpu timer or a timer expires we do not clear
the expiration cache sig->cputimer_expires.
As a result the fastpath_timer_check() which prevents us to loop over
all threads in case no timer is active is not working and we run the
slow path needlessly on every tick.
Zero sig->cputimer_expires in stop_process_timers().

Make sure compiler won't do weird things with limits. E.g. fetching them
twice may return 2 different values after writable limits are implemented.
I.e. either use rlimit helpers added in commit 3e10e716ab ("resource:
add helpers for fetching rlimits") or ACCESS_ONCE if not applicable.

When the process exits we don't have to run new cputimer nor
use running one (as it not accounts when tsk->exit_state != 0)
to get process CPU times. As there is only one thread we can
just use CPU times fields from task and signal structs.

Measure ITIMER_PROF and ITIMER_VIRT timers interval error
between real ticks and requested by user. Take it into account
when scheduling next tick.
This patch introduce possibility where time between two
consecutive tics is smaller then requested interval, it
preserve however dependency that n tick is generated not
earlier than n*interval time - counting from the beginning of
periodic signal generation.
