Thanks to Roland who pointed out de_thread() issues.
Currently we add sub-threads to ->real_parent->children list. This buys
nothing but slows down do_wait().
With this patch ->children contains only main threads (group leaders).
The only complication is that forget_original_parent() should iterate over
sub-threads by hand, and de_thread() needs another list_replace() when it
changes ->group_leader.
Henceforth do_wait_thread() can never see task_detached() && !EXIT_DEAD
tasks, we can remove this check (and we can unify do_wait_thread() and
ptrace_do_wait()).
This change can confuse the optimistic search in mm_update_next_owner(),
but this is fixable and minor.
Perhaps badness() and oom_kill_process() should be updated, but they
should be fixed in any case.

In NOMMU mode clamp dac_mmap_min_addr to zero to cause the tests on it to be
skipped by the compiler. We do this as the minimum mmap address doesn't make
any sense in NOMMU mode.
mmap_min_addr and round_hint_to_min() can be discarded entirely in NOMMU mode.

As predicted during code review, the sysctl(2) changes made systems with
old glibc nearly unusable. About every command gives a:
warning: process `ls' used the deprecated sysctl system call with 1.4
warning in the log.
I see this on a SUSE 10.0 system with glibc 2.3.5.
Don't warn for this common case.

In order to allow for per-task-per-cpu counters, useful for
scalability when profiling task hierarchies, we allow installing
events with event->cpu != -1 in task contexts.
__perf_event_sched_in() already skips events where ->cpu
mis-matches the current cpu, fix up __perf_install_in_context()
and __perf_event_enable() to also respect this filter.
This does lead to vary hard to interpret enabled/running times
for such counters, but I don't see a simple solution for that.

Implement shrinking the reserved memory for crash kernel, if it is more
than enough.
For example, if you have already reserved 128M, now you just want 100M,
you can do:
# echo $((100*1024*1024)) > /sys/kernel/kexec_crash_size
Note, you can only do this before loading the crash kernel.

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

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.
Test-case:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <signal.h>
#include <sys/ptrace.h>
#include <sys/wait.h>
#include <assert.h>
int main(void)
{
int pid, status;
if (!(pid = fork())) {
assert(ptrace(PTRACE_TRACEME) == 0);
kill(getpid(), SIGSTOP);
if (!fork()) {
/* kernel bug: this child will be killed by SIGTRAP */
printf("Hello world\n");
return 43;
}
wait(&status);
return WEXITSTATUS(status);
}
for (;;) {
assert(pid == wait(&status));
if (WIFEXITED(status))
break;
assert(ptrace(PTRACE_SINGLESTEP, pid, 0,0) == 0);
}
