The kernel tries to atomically unlock the futex without checking
whether there is kernel state associated to the futex.
So if user space manipulated the user space value, this will leave
kernel internal state around associated to the owner task.
For robustness sake, lookup first whether there are waiters on the
futex. If there are waiters, wake the top priority waiter with all the
proper sanity checks applied.
If there are no waiters, do the atomic release. We do not have to
preserve the waiters bit in this case, because a potentially incoming
waiter is blocked on the hb->lock and will acquire the futex
atomically. We neither have to preserve the owner died bit. The caller
is the owner and it was supposed to cleanup the mess.

In case the dead lock detector is enabled we follow the lock chain to
the end in rt_mutex_adjust_prio_chain, even if we could stop earlier
due to the priority/waiter constellation.
But once we are no longer the top priority waiter in a certain step
or the task holding the lock has already the same priority then there
is no point in dequeing and enqueing along the lock chain as there is
no change at all.
So stop the queueing at this point.

The current implementation of try_to_take_rtmutex() is correct, but
requires more than a single brain twist to understand the clever

Oleg noticed that rtmutex_slowtrylock() has a pointless check for
rt_mutex_owner(lock) != current.
To avoid calling try_to_take_rtmutex() we really want to check whether
the lock has an owner at all or whether the trylock failed because the
owner is NULL, but the RT_MUTEX_HAS_WAITERS bit is set. This covers
the lock is owned by caller situation as well.
We can actually do this check lockless. trylock is taking a chance
whether we take lock->wait_lock to do the check or not.
Add comments to the function while at it.

When the rtmutex fast path is enabled the slow unlock function can
create the following situation:
spin_lock(foo->m->wait_lock);
foo->m->owner = NULL;
rt_mutex_lock(foo->m); <-- fast path
free = atomic_dec_and_test(foo->refcnt);
rt_mutex_unlock(foo->m); <-- fast path
if (free)
kfree(foo);
spin_unlock(foo->m->wait_lock); <--- Use after free.
Plug the race by changing the slow unlock to the following scheme:
while (!rt_mutex_has_waiters(m)) {
/* Clear the waiters bit in m->owner */
clear_rt_mutex_waiters(m);
owner = rt_mutex_owner(m);
spin_unlock(m->wait_lock);
if (cmpxchg(m->owner, owner, 0) == owner)
return;
spin_lock(m->wait_lock);
}
So in case of a new waiter incoming while the owner tries the slow
path unlock we have two situations:
unlock(wait_lock);
lock(wait_lock);
cmpxchg(p, owner, 0) == owner
mark_rt_mutex_waiters(lock);
acquire(lock);
Or:
unlock(wait_lock);
lock(wait_lock);
mark_rt_mutex_waiters(lock);
cmpxchg(p, owner, 0) != owner
enqueue_waiter();
unlock(wait_lock);
lock(wait_lock);
wakeup_next waiter();
unlock(wait_lock);
lock(wait_lock);
acquire(lock);
If the fast path is disabled, then the simple
m->owner = NULL;
unlock(m->wait_lock);
is sufficient as all access to m->owner is serialized via
m->wait_lock;
Also document and clarify the wakeup_next_waiter function as suggested
by Oleg Nesterov.

Since I said we would do that in the previous PM+ACPI pull request,

bus below the host bridge to be checked for changes as they should

subsystem that forgets to add hotplug contexts to PCI host bridge
ACPI device objects. Create hotplug contexts for PCI host bridges
too as appropriate.

- Fix for a problem with cpufreq governors that decisions made by

used by them for CPU load sampling. From Srivatsa S Bhat.
- Fix for a problem with the Tegra cpufreq driver where the CPU
frequency is temporarily switched to a "stable" level that is

sometimes. From Viresh Kumar.

The kernel has no concept of capabilities with respect to inodes; inodes
exist independently of namespaces. For example, inode_capable(inode,
CAP_LINUX_IMMUTABLE) would be nonsense.
This patch changes inode_capable to check for uid and gid mappings and
renames it to capable_wrt_inode_uidgid, which should make it more
obvious what it does.
