Use the normal IPI pattern to ensure we run the code on the correct CPU.

The comment says it's using trialcs->mems_allowed as a temp variable but
it didn't match the code. Change the code to match the comment.
This fixes an issue when writing in cpuset.mems when a sub-directory
exists: we need to write several times for the information to persist:
| root@alban:/sys/fs/cgroup/cpuset# mkdir footest9
| root@alban:/sys/fs/cgroup/cpuset# cd footest9
| root@alban:/sys/fs/cgroup/cpuset/footest9# mkdir aa
| root@alban:/sys/fs/cgroup/cpuset/footest9# cat cpuset.mems

The s-Par visornic driver, currently in staging, processes a queue being
serviced by the an s-Par service partition. We can get a message that
something has happened with the Service Partition, when that happens, we
must not access the channel until we get a message that the service
partition is back again.
The visornic driver has a thread for processing the channel, when we get
the message, we need to be able to park the thread and then resume it
when the problem clears.
We can do this with kthread_park and unpark but they are not exported
from the kernel, this patch exports the needed functions.

This function may copy the si_addr_lsb, si_lower and si_upper fields to
user mode when they haven't been initialized, which can leak kernel
stack data to user mode.
Just checking the value of si_code is insufficient because the same
si_code value is shared between multiple signals. This is solved by
checking the value of si_signo in addition to si_code.

This function can leak kernel stack data when the user siginfo_t has a
positive si_code value. The top 16 bits of si_code descibe which fields
in the siginfo_t union are active, but they are treated inconsistently
between copy_siginfo_from_user32, copy_siginfo_to_user32 and
copy_siginfo_to_user.
copy_siginfo_from_user32 is called from rt_sigqueueinfo and
rt_tgsigqueueinfo in which the user has full control overthe top 16 bits
of si_code.
This fixes the following information leaks:
x86: 8 bytes leaked when sending a signal from a 32-bit process to
itself. This leak grows to 16 bytes if the process uses x32.
(si_code = __SI_CHLD)
x86: 100 bytes leaked when sending a signal from a 32-bit process to
a 64-bit process. (si_code = -1)
sparc: 4 bytes leaked when sending a signal from a 32-bit process to a
64-bit process. (si_code = any)
parsic and s390 have similar bugs, but they are not vulnerable because
rt_[tg]sigqueueinfo have checks that prevent sending a positive si_code
to a different process. These bugs are also fixed for consistency.

Currently, the PT driver zeroes out the status register every time before
starting the event. However, all the writable bits are already taken care
of in pt_handle_status() function, except the new PacketByteCnt field,
which in new versions of PT contains the number of packet bytes written
since the last sync (PSB) packet. Zeroing it out before enabling PT forces
a sync packet to be written. This means that, with the existing code, a
sync packet (PSB and PSBEND, 18 bytes in total) will be generated every
time a PT event is scheduled in.
To avoid these unnecessary syncs and save a WRMSR in the fast path, this
patch changes the default behavior to not clear PacketByteCnt field, so
that the sync packets will be generated with the period specified as
"psb_period" attribute config field. This has little impact on the trace
data as the other packets that are normally sent within PSB+ (between PSB
and PSBEND) have their own generation scenarios which do not depend on the
sync packets.
One exception where we do need to force PSB like this when tracing starts,
so that the decoder has a clear sync point in the trace. For this purpose
we aready have hw::itrace_started flag, which we are currently using to
output PERF_RECORD_ITRACE_START. This patch moves setting itrace_started
from perf core to the pmu::start, where it should still be 0 on the very
first run.

Vince reported that the fasync signal stuff doesn't work proper for
inherited events. So fix that.
Installing fasync allocates memory and sets filp->f_flags |= FASYNC,
which upon the demise of the file descriptor ensures the allocation is
freed and state is updated.
Now for perf, we can have the events stick around for a while after the
original FD is dead because of references from child events. So we
cannot copy the fasync pointer around. We can however consistently use
the parent's fasync, as that will be updated.

The previous change documents that cleanup_return_instances()
can't always detect the dead frames, the stack can grow. But
there is one special case which imho worth fixing:
arch_uretprobe_is_alive() can return true when the stack didn't
actually grow, but the next "call" insn uses the already
invalidated frame.
Test-case:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <setjmp.h>
jmp_buf jmp;
int nr = 1024;
void func_2(void)
{
if (--nr == 0)
return;
longjmp(jmp, 1);
}
void func_1(void)
{
setjmp(jmp);
func_2();
}
int main(void)
{
func_1();
return 0;
}
If you ret-probe func_1() and func_2() prepare_uretprobe() hits
the MAX_URETPROBE_DEPTH limit and "return" from func_2() is not
reported.
When we know that the new call is not chained, we can do the
more strict check. In this case "sp" points to the new ret-addr,
so every frame which uses the same "sp" must be dead. The only
complication is that arch_uretprobe_is_alive() needs to know was
it chained or not, so we add the new RP_CHECK_CHAIN_CALL enum
and change prepare_uretprobe() to pass RP_CHECK_CALL only if
!chained.
Note: arch_uretprobe_is_alive() could also re-read *sp and check
if this word is still trampoline_vaddr. This could obviously
improve the logic, but I would like to avoid another
copy_from_user() especially in the case when we can't avoid the
false "alive == T" positives.

Test-case:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <setjmp.h>
jmp_buf jmp;
void func_2(void)
{
longjmp(jmp, 1);
}
void func_1(void)

if (setjmp(jmp))
return;
func_2();
printf("ERR!! I am running on the caller's stack\n");
}
int main(void)
{
func_1();
return 0;
}
fails if you probe func_1() and func_2() because
handle_trampoline() assumes that the probed function should must
return and hit the bp installed be prepare_uretprobe(). But in
this case func_2() does not return, so when func_1() returns the
kernel uses the no longer valid return_instance of func_2().
Change handle_trampoline() to unwind ->return_instances until we
know that the next chain is alive or NULL, this ensures that the
current chain is the last we need to report and free.
Alternatively, every return_instance could use unique
trampoline_vaddr, in this case we could use it as a key. And
this could solve the problem with sigaltstack() automatically.
But this approach needs more changes, and it puts the "hard"
limit on MAX_URETPROBE_DEPTH. Plus it can not solve another
problem partially fixed by the next patch.
Note: this change has no effect on !x86, the arch-agnostic
version of arch_uretprobe_is_alive() just returns "true".
TODO: as documented by the previous change, arch_uretprobe_is_alive()
can be fooled by sigaltstack/etc.

Add the x86 specific version of arch_uretprobe_is_alive()
helper. It returns true if the stack frame mangled by
prepare_uretprobe() is still on stack. So if it returns false,
we know that the probed function has already returned.
We add the new return_instance->stack member and change the
generic code to initialize it in prepare_uretprobe, but it
should be equally useful for other architectures.
TODO: this assumes that the probed application can't use
multiple stacks (say sigaltstack). We will try to improve
this logic later.
