2009-07-22perf_counter: PERF_SAMPLE_ID and inherited countersPeter Zijlstra
Anton noted that for inherited counters the counter-id as provided by PERF_SAMPLE_ID isn't mappable to the id found through PERF_RECORD_ID because each inherited counter gets its own id. His suggestion was to always return the parent counter id, since that is the primary counter id as exposed. However, these inherited counters have a unique identifier so that events like PERF_EVENT_PERIOD and PERF_EVENT_THROTTLE can be specific about which counter gets modified, which is important when trying to normalize the sample streams. This patch removes PERF_EVENT_PERIOD in favour of PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD, which is more useful anyway, since changing periods became a lot more common than initially thought -- rendering PERF_EVENT_PERIOD the less useful solution (also, PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD reports the more accurate value, since it reports the value used to trigger the overflow, whereas PERF_EVENT_PERIOD simply reports the requested period changed, which might only take effect on the next cycle). This still leaves us PERF_EVENT_THROTTLE to consider, but since that _should_ be a rare occurrence, and linking it to a primary id is the most useful bit to diagnose the problem, we introduce a PERF_SAMPLE_STREAM_ID, for those few cases where the full reconstruction is important.

2009-07-22softirq: introduce tasklet_hrtimer infrastructurePeter Zijlstra
commit ca109491f (hrtimer: removing all ur callback modes) moved all hrtimer callbacks into hard interrupt context when high resolution timers are active. That breaks code which relied on the assumption that the callback happens in softirq context. Provide a generic infrastructure which combines tasklets and hrtimers together to provide an in-softirq hrtimer experience.

2009-07-21genirq: Delegate irq affinity setting to the irq threadThomas Gleixner
irq_set_thread_affinity() calls set_cpus_allowed_ptr() which might sleep, but irq_set_thread_affinity() is called with desc->lock held and can be called from hard interrupt context as well. The code has another bug as it does not hold a ref on the task struct as required by set_cpus_allowed_ptr(). Just set the IRQTF_AFFINITY bit in action->thread_flags. The next time the thread runs it migrates itself. Solves all of the above problems nicely. Add kerneldoc to irq_set_thread_affinity() while at it.

2009-07-18sched: fix nr_uninterruptible accounting of frozen tasks reallyThomas Gleixner
commit e3c8ca8336 (sched: do not count frozen tasks toward load) broke the nr_uninterruptible accounting on freeze/thaw. On freeze the task is excluded from accounting with a check for (task->flags & PF_FROZEN), but that flag is cleared before the task is thawed. So while we prevent that the task with state TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE is accounted to nr_uninterruptible on freeze we decrement nr_uninterruptible on thaw. Use a separate flag which is handled by the freezing task itself. Set it before calling the scheduler with TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE state and clear it after we return from frozen state.

Bootmem is not used for the vt screen buffer anymore as slab is now available at the time the console is initialized. Get rid of the now superfluous distinction between slab and bootmem, it's always slab. This also fixes a kmalloc leak which Catalin described thusly: Commit a5f4f52e ("vt: use kzalloc() instead of the bootmem allocator") replaced the alloc_bootmem() with kzalloc() but didn't set vc_kmalloced to 1 and the memory block is later leaked.

2009-07-12personality: fix PER_CLEAR_ON_SETIDJulien Tinnes
We have found that the current PER_CLEAR_ON_SETID mask on Linux doesn't include neither ADDR_COMPAT_LAYOUT, nor MMAP_PAGE_ZERO. The current mask is READ_IMPLIES_EXEC|ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE. We believe it is important to add MMAP_PAGE_ZERO, because by using this personality it is possible to have the first page mapped inside a process running as setuid root. This could be used in those scenarios: - Exploiting a NULL pointer dereference issue in a setuid root binary - Bypassing the mmap_min_addr restrictions of the Linux kernel: by running a setuid binary that would drop privileges before giving us control back (for instance by loading a user-supplied library), we could get the first page mapped in a process we control. By further using mremap and mprotect on this mapping, we can then completely bypass the mmap_min_addr restrictions. Less importantly, we believe ADDR_COMPAT_LAYOUT should also be added since on x86 32bits it will in practice disable most of the address space layout randomization (only the stack will remain randomized).

2009-07-10block: fix sg SG_DXFER_TO_FROM_DEV regressionFUJITA Tomonori
I overlooked SG_DXFER_TO_FROM_DEV support when I converted sg to use the block layer mapping API (2.6.28). Douglas Gilbert explained SG_DXFER_TO_FROM_DEV: http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-scsi/msg37135.html = The semantics of SG_DXFER_TO_FROM_DEV were: - copy user space buffer to kernel (LLD) buffer - do SCSI command which is assumed to be of the DATA_IN (data from device) variety. This would overwrite some or all of the kernel buffer - copy kernel (LLD) buffer back to the user space. The idea was to detect short reads by filling the original user space buffer with some marker bytes ("0xec" it would seem in this report). The "resid" value is a better way of detecting short reads but that was only added this century and requires co-operation from the LLD. = This patch changes the block layer mapping API to support this semantics. This simply adds another field to struct rq_map_data and enables __bio_copy_iov() to copy data from user space even with READ requests. It's better to add the flags field and kills null_mapped and the new from_user fields in struct rq_map_data but that approach makes it difficult to send this patch to stable trees because st and osst drivers use struct rq_map_data (they were converted to use the block layer in 2.6.29 and 2.6.30). Well, I should clean up the block layer mapping API. zhou sf reported this regiression and tested this patch: http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-scsi/msg37128.html http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-scsi/msg37168.html Reported-by: zhou sf <sxzzsf@gmail.com> Tested-by: zhou sf <sxzzsf@gmail.com> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: FUJITA Tomonori <fujita.tomonori@lab.ntt.co.jp> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

2009-07-10hrtimer: Fix migration expiry checkThomas Gleixner
The timer migration expiry check should prevent the migration of a timer to another CPU when the timer expires before the next event is scheduled on the other CPU. Migrating the timer might delay it because we can not reprogram the clock event device on the other CPU. But the code implementing that check has two flaws: - for !HIGHRES the check compares the expiry value with the clock events device expiry value which is wrong for CLOCK_REALTIME based timers. - the check is racy. It holds the hrtimer base lock of the target CPU, but the clock event device expiry value can be modified nevertheless, e.g. by an timer interrupt firing. The !HIGHRES case is easy to fix as we can enqueue the timer on the cpu which was selected by the load balancer. It runs the idle balancing code once per jiffy anyway. So the maximum delay for the timer is the same as when we keep the tick on the current cpu going. In the HIGHRES case we can get the next expiry value from the hrtimer cpu_base of the target CPU and serialize the update with the cpu_base lock. This moves the lock section in hrtimer_interrupt() so we can set next_event to KTIME_MAX while we are handling the expired timers and set it to the next expiry value after we handled the timers under the base lock. While the expired timers are processed timer migration is blocked because the expiry time of the timer is always <= KTIME_MAX. Also remove the now useless clockevents_get_next_event() function.

2009-07-08kmemleak: Allow partial freeing of memory blocksCatalin Marinas
Functions like free_bootmem() are allowed to free only part of a memory block. This patch adds support for this via the kmemleak_free_part() callback which removes the original object and creates one or two additional objects as a result of the memory block split.

2009-07-06elf: fix multithreaded program core dumping on armHui Zhu
Fix the multithread program core thread message error. This issue affects arches with neither has CORE_DUMP_USE_REGSET nor ELF_CORE_COPY_TASK_REGS, ARM is one of them. The thread message of core file is generated in elf_dump_thread_status. The register values is set by elf_core_copy_task_regs in this function. If an arch doesn't define ELF_CORE_COPY_TASK_REGS, elf_core_copy_task_regs() will do nothing. Then the core file will not have the register message of thread. So add elf_core_copy_regs to set regiser values if ELF_CORE_COPY_TASK_REGS doesn't define. The following is how to reproduce this issue: cat 1.c #include <stdio.h> #include <pthread.h> #include <assert.h> void td1(void * i) { while (1) { printf ("1\n"); sleep (1); } return; } void td2(void * i) { while (1) { printf ("2\n"); sleep (1); } return; } int main(int argc,char *argv[],char *envp[]) { pthread_t t1,t2; pthread_create(&t1, NULL, (void*)td1, NULL); pthread_create(&t2, NULL, (void*)td2, NULL); sleep (10); assert(0); return (0); } arm-xxx-gcc -g -lpthread 1.c -o 1 copy 1.c and 1 to a arm board. Goto this board. ulimit -c 1800000 ./1 # ./1 1 2 1 ... ... 1 1: 1.c:37: main: Assertion `0' failed. Aborted (core dumped) Then you can get a core file. gdb 1 core.xxx Without the patch: (gdb) info threads 3 process 909 0x00000000 in ?? () 2 process 908 0x00000000 in ?? () * 1 process 907 0x4a6e2238 in raise () from /lib/libc.so.6 You can found that the pc of 909 and 908 is 0x00000000. With the patch: (gdb) info threads 3 process 885 0x4a749974 in nanosleep () from /lib/libc.so.6 2 process 884 0x4a749974 in nanosleep () from /lib/libc.so.6 * 1 process 883 0x4a6e2238 in raise () from /lib/libc.so.6 The pc of 885 and 884 is right.
