2015-05-18sched: always use blk_schedule_flush_plug in io_schedule_outShaohua Li
block plug callback could sleep, so we introduce a parameter 'from_schedule' and corresponding drivers can use it to destinguish a schedule plug flush or a plug finish. Unfortunately io_schedule_out still uses blk_flush_plug(). This causes below output (Note, I added a might_sleep() in raid1_unplug to make it trigger faster, but the whole thing doesn't matter if I add might_sleep). In raid1/10, this can cause deadlock. This patch makes io_schedule_out always uses blk_schedule_flush_plug. This should only impact drivers (as far as I know, raid 1/10) which are sensitive to the 'from_schedule' parameter.

2015-05-18watchdog: Fix merge 'conflict'Peter Zijlstra
Two watchdog changes that came through different trees had a non conflicting conflict, that is, one changed the semantics of a variable but no actual code conflict happened. So the merge appeared fine, but the resulting code did not behave as expected. Commit 195daf665a62 ("watchdog: enable the new user interface of the watchdog mechanism") changes the semantics of watchdog_user_enabled, which thereafter is only used by the functions introduced by b3738d293233 ("watchdog: Add watchdog enable/disable all functions"). There further appears to be a distinct lack of serialization between setting and using watchdog_enabled, so perhaps we should wrap the {en,dis}able_all() things in watchdog_proc_mutex. This patch fixes a s2r failure reported by Michal; which I cannot readily explain. But this does make the code internally consistent again.

2015-05-13ktime: Fix ktime_divns to do signed divisionJohn Stultz
It was noted that the 32bit implementation of ktime_divns() was doing unsigned division and didn't properly handle negative values. And when a ktime helper was changed to utilize ktime_divns, it caused a regression on some IR blasters. See the following bugzilla for details: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1200353 This patch fixes the problem in ktime_divns by checking and preserving the sign bit, and then reapplying it if appropriate after the division, it also changes the return type to a s64 to make it more obvious this is expected. Nicolas also pointed out that negative dividers would cause infinite loops on 32bit systems, negative dividers is unlikely for users of this function, but out of caution this patch adds checks for negative dividers for both 32-bit (BUG_ON) and 64-bit(WARN_ON) versions to make sure no such use cases creep in.

2015-05-08sched/core: Fix regression in cpuset_cpu_inactive() for suspendOmar Sandoval
Commit 3c18d447b3b3 ("sched/core: Check for available DL bandwidth in cpuset_cpu_inactive()"), a SCHED_DEADLINE bugfix, had a logic error that caused a regression in setting a CPU inactive during suspend. I ran into this when a program was failing pthread_setaffinity_np() with EINVAL after a suspend+wake up. A simple reproducer: $ ./a.out sched_setaffinity: Success $ systemctl suspend $ ./a.out sched_setaffinity: Invalid argument ... where ./a.out is: #define _GNU_SOURCE #include <errno.h> #include <sched.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <string.h> #include <unistd.h> int main(void) { long num_cores; cpu_set_t cpu_set; int ret; num_cores = sysconf(_SC_NPROCESSORS_ONLN); CPU_ZERO(&cpu_set); CPU_SET(num_cores - 1, &cpu_set); errno = 0; ret = sched_setaffinity(getpid(), sizeof(cpu_set), &cpu_set); perror("sched_setaffinity"); return ret ? EXIT_FAILURE : EXIT_SUCCESS; } The mistake is that suspend is handled in the action == CPU_DOWN_PREPARE_FROZEN case of the switch statement in cpuset_cpu_inactive(). However, the commit in question masked out CPU_TASKS_FROZEN from the action, making this case dead. The fix is straightforward.

2015-05-08sched: Handle priority boosted tasks proper in setscheduler()Thomas Gleixner
Ronny reported that the following scenario is not handled correctly: T1 (prio = 10) lock(rtmutex); T2 (prio = 20) lock(rtmutex) boost T1 T1 (prio = 20) sys_set_scheduler(prio = 30) T1 prio = 30 .... sys_set_scheduler(prio = 10) T1 prio = 30 The last step is wrong as T1 should now be back at prio 20. Commit c365c292d059 ("sched: Consider pi boosting in setscheduler()") only handles the case where a boosted tasks tries to lower its priority.

2015-04-29cpuidle: Run tick_broadcast_exit() with disabled interruptsRafael J. Wysocki
Commit 335f49196fd6 (sched/idle: Use explicit broadcast oneshot control function) replaced clockevents_notify() invocations in cpuidle_idle_call() with direct calls to tick_broadcast_enter() and tick_broadcast_exit(), but it overlooked the fact that interrupts were already enabled before calling the latter which led to functional breakage on systems using idle states with the CPUIDLE_FLAG_TIMER_STOP flag set. Fix that by moving the invocations of tick_broadcast_enter() and tick_broadcast_exit() down into cpuidle_enter_state() where interrupts are still disabled when tick_broadcast_exit() is called. Also ensure that interrupts will be disabled before running tick_broadcast_exit() even if they have been enabled by the idle state's ->enter callback. Trigger a WARN_ON_ONCE() in that case, as we generally don't want that to happen for states with CPUIDLE_FLAG_TIMER_STOP set.

2015-04-27x86: pvclock: Really remove the sched notifier for cross-cpu migrationsPaolo Bonzini
This reverts commits 0a4e6be9ca17c54817cf814b4b5aa60478c6df27 and 80f7fdb1c7f0f9266421f823964fd1962681f6ce. The task migration notifier was originally introduced in order to support the pvclock vsyscall with non-synchronized TSC, but KVM only supports it with synchronized TSC. Hence, on KVM the race condition is only needed due to a bad implementation on the host side, and even then it's so rare that it's mostly theoretical. As far as KVM is concerned it's possible to fix the host, avoiding the additional complexity in the vDSO and the (re)introduction of the task migration notifier. Xen, on the other hand, hasn't yet implemented vsyscall support at all, so we do not care about its plans for non-synchronized TSC.

2015-04-24clockevents: Shutdown detached clockevent deviceViresh Kumar
A clockevent device is marked DETACHED when it is replaced by another clockevent device. The device is shutdown properly for drivers that implement legacy ->set_mode() callback, as we call ->set_mode() for CLOCK_EVT_MODE_UNUSED as well. But for the new per-state callback interface, we skip shutting down the device, as we thought its an internal state change. That wasn't correct. The effect is that the device is left programmed in oneshot or periodic mode. Fall-back to 'case CLOCK_EVT_STATE_SHUTDOWN', to shutdown the device.

2015-04-19smp: Fix error case handling in smp_call_function_*()Linus Torvalds
Commit 8053871d0f7f ("smp: Fix smp_call_function_single_async() locking") fixed the locking for the asynchronous smp-call case, but in the process of moving the lock handling around, one of the error cases ended up not unlocking the call data at all. This went unnoticed on x86, because this is a "caller is buggy" case, where the caller is trying to call a non-existent CPU. But apparently ARM does that (at least under qemu-arm). Bindly doing cross-cpu calls to random CPU's that aren't even online seems a bit fishy, but the error handling was clearly not correct. Simply add the missing "csd_unlock()" to the error path.

2015-04-17tracing: Fix possible out of bounds memory access when parsing enumsSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)
The code that replaces the enum names with the enum values in the tracepoints' format files could possible miss the end of string nul character. This was caused by processing things like backslashes, quotes and other tokens. After processing the tokens, a check for the nul character needed to be done before continuing the loop, because the loop incremented the pointer before doing the check, which could bypass the nul character.

2015-04-17oprofile: reduce mmap_sem hold for mm->exe_fileDavidlohr Bueso
sync_buffer() needs the mmap_sem for two distinct operations, both only occurring upon user context switch handling: 1) Dealing with the exe_file. 2) Adding the dcookie data as we need to lookup the vma that backs it. This is done via add_sample() and add_data(). This patch isolates 1), for it will no longer need the mmap_sem for serialization. However, for now, make of the more standard get_mm_exe_file(), requiring only holding the mmap_sem to read the value, and relying on reference counting to make sure that the exe file won't dissappear underneath us while doing the get dcookie. As a consequence, for 2) we move the mmap_sem locking into where we really need it, in lookup_dcookie(). The benefits are twofold: reduce mmap_sem hold times, and cleaner code.

2015-04-17prctl: avoid using mmap_sem for exe_file serializationDavidlohr Bueso
Oleg cleverly suggested using xchg() to set the new mm->exe_file instead of calling set_mm_exe_file() which requires some form of serialization -- mmap_sem in this case. For archs that do not have atomic rmw instructions we still fallback to a spinlock alternative, so this should always be safe. As such, we only need the mmap_sem for looking up the backing vm_file, which can be done sharing the lock. Naturally, this means we need to manually deal with both the new and old file reference counting, and we need not worry about the MMF_EXE_FILE_CHANGED bits, which can probably be deleted in the future anyway.

PAGE_SIZE is not guaranteed to be equal to or less than 8 times the THREAD_SIZE. E.g. architecture hexagon may have page size 1M and thread size 4096. This would lead to a division by zero in the calculation of max_threads. With this patch the buggy code is moved to a separate function set_max_threads. The error is not fixed. After fixing the problem in a separate patch the new function can be reused to adjust max_threads after adding or removing memory. Argument mempages of function fork_init() is removed as totalram_pages is an exported symbol. The creation of separate patches for refactoring to a new function and for fixing the logic was suggested by Ingo Molnar.

2015-04-17fork_init: update max_threads commentJean Delvare
The comment explaining what value max_threads is set to is outdated. The maximum memory consumption ratio for thread structures was 1/2 until February 2002, then it was briefly changed to 1/16 before being set to 1/8 which we still use today. The comment was never updated to reflect that change, it's about time.

2015-04-17fork: report pid reservation failure properlyMichal Hocko
copy_process will report any failure in alloc_pid as ENOMEM currently which is misleading because the pid allocation might fail not only when the memory is short but also when the pid space is consumed already. The current man page even mentions this case: : EAGAIN : : A system-imposed limit on the number of threads was encountered. : There are a number of limits that may trigger this error: the : RLIMIT_NPROC soft resource limit (set via setrlimit(2)), which : limits the number of processes and threads for a real user ID, was : reached; the kernel's system-wide limit on the number of processes : and threads, /proc/sys/kernel/threads-max, was reached (see : proc(5)); or the maximum number of PIDs, /proc/sys/kernel/pid_max, : was reached (see proc(5)). so the current behavior is also incorrect wrt. documentation. POSIX man page also suggest returing EAGAIN when the process count limit is reached. This patch simply propagates error code from alloc_pid and makes sure we return -EAGAIN due to reservation failure. This will make behavior of fork closer to both our documentation and POSIX. alloc_pid might alsoo fail when the reaper in the pid namespace is dead (the namespace basically disallows all new processes) and there is no good error code which would match documented ones. We have traditionally returned ENOMEM for this case which is misleading as well but as per Eric W. Biederman this behavior is documented in man pid_namespaces(7) : If the "init" process of a PID namespace terminates, the kernel : terminates all of the processes in the namespace via a SIGKILL signal. : This behavior reflects the fact that the "init" process is essential for : the correct operation of a PID namespace. In this case, a subsequent : fork(2) into this PID namespace will fail with the error ENOMEM; it is : not possible to create a new processes in a PID namespace whose "init" : process has terminated. and introducing a new error code would be too risky so let's stick to ENOMEM for this case.
