ef0855d334 mm: mempolicy: turn vma_set_policy() into vma_dup_policy()
Simple cleanup.  Every user of vma_set_policy() does the same work, this
looks a bit annoying imho.  And the new trivial helper which does
mpol_dup() + vma_set_policy() to simplify the callers.

40a0d32d1e fork: unify and tighten up CLONE_NEWUSER/CLONE_NEWPID checks
do_fork() denies CLONE_THREAD | CLONE_PARENT if NEWUSER | NEWPID.

Then later copy_process() denies CLONE_SIGHAND if the new process will
be in a different pid namespace (task_active_pid_ns() doesn't match
current->nsproxy->pid_ns).

This looks confusing and inconsistent.  CLONE_NEWPID is very similar to
the case when ->pid_ns was already unshared, we want the same
restrictions so copy_process() should also nack CLONE_PARENT.

And it would be better to deny CLONE_NEWUSER && CLONE_SIGHAND as well
just for consistency.

Kill the "CLONE_NEWUSER | CLONE_NEWPID" check in do_fork() and change
copy_process() to do the same check along with ->pid_ns check we already
have.

5167246a8a pidns: kill the unnecessary CLONE_NEWPID in copy_process()
Commit 8382fcac1b ("pidns: Outlaw thread creation after
unshare(CLONE_NEWPID)") nacks CLONE_NEWPID if the forking process
unshared pid_ns.  This is correct but unnecessary, copy_pid_ns() does
the same check.

Remove the CLONE_NEWPID check to cleanup the code and prepare for the
next change.

Test-case:

	static int child(void *arg)
	{
		return 0;
	}

	static char stack[16 * 1024];

	int main(void)
	{
		pid_t pid;

		assert(unshare(CLONE_NEWUSER | CLONE_NEWPID) == 0);

		pid = clone(child, stack + sizeof(stack) / 2,
				CLONE_NEWPID | SIGCHLD, NULL);
		assert(pid < 0 && errno == EINVAL);

		return 0;
	}

clone(CLONE_NEWPID) correctly fails with or without this change.

e79f525e99 pidns: fix vfork() after unshare(CLONE_NEWPID)
Commit 8382fcac1b ("pidns: Outlaw thread creation after
unshare(CLONE_NEWPID)") nacks CLONE_VM if the forking process unshared
pid_ns, this obviously breaks vfork:

	int main(void)
	{
		assert(unshare(CLONE_NEWUSER | CLONE_NEWPID) == 0);
		assert(vfork() >= 0);
		_exit(0);
		return 0;
	}

fails without this patch.

Change this check to use CLONE_SIGHAND instead.  This also forbids
CLONE_THREAD automatically, and this is what the comment implies.

We could probably even drop CLONE_SIGHAND and use CLONE_THREAD, but it
would be safer to not do this.  The current check denies CLONE_SIGHAND
implicitely and there is no reason to change this.

Eric said "CLONE_SIGHAND is fine.  CLONE_THREAD would be even better.
Having shared signal handling between two different pid namespaces is
the case that we are fundamentally guarding against."

3942c07ccf fs: bump inode and dentry counters to long
This series reworks our current object cache shrinking infrastructure in
two main ways:

 * Noticing that a lot of users copy and paste their own version of LRU
   lists for objects, we put some effort in providing a generic version.
   It is modeled after the filesystem users: dentries, inodes, and xfs
   (for various tasks), but we expect that other users could benefit in
   the near future with little or no modification.  Let us know if you
   have any issues.

 * The underlying list_lru being proposed automatically and
   transparently keeps the elements in per-node lists, and is able to
   manipulate the node lists individually.  Given this infrastructure, we
   are able to modify the up-to-now hammer called shrink_slab to proceed
   with node-reclaim instead of always searching memory from all over like
   it has been doing.

Per-node lru lists are also expected to lead to less contention in the lru
locks on multi-node scans, since we are now no longer fighting for a
global lock.  The locks usually disappear from the profilers with this
change.

Although we have no official benchmarks for this version - be our guest to
independently evaluate this - earlier versions of this series were
performance tested (details at
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.mm/100537) yielding no
visible performance regressions while yielding a better qualitative
behavior in NUMA machines.

With this infrastructure in place, we can use the list_lru entry point to
provide memcg isolation and per-memcg targeted reclaim.  Historically,
those two pieces of work have been posted together.  This version presents
only the infrastructure work, deferring the memcg work for a later time,
so we can focus on getting this part tested.  You can see more about the
history of such work at http://lwn.net/Articles/552769/

Dave Chinner (18):
  dcache: convert dentry_stat.nr_unused to per-cpu counters
  dentry: move to per-sb LRU locks
  dcache: remove dentries from LRU before putting on dispose list
  mm: new shrinker API
  shrinker: convert superblock shrinkers to new API
  list: add a new LRU list type
  inode: convert inode lru list to generic lru list code.
  dcache: convert to use new lru list infrastructure
  list_lru: per-node list infrastructure
  shrinker: add node awareness
  fs: convert inode and dentry shrinking to be node aware
  xfs: convert buftarg LRU to generic code
  xfs: rework buffer dispose list tracking
  xfs: convert dquot cache lru to list_lru
  fs: convert fs shrinkers to new scan/count API
  drivers: convert shrinkers to new count/scan API
  shrinker: convert remaining shrinkers to count/scan API
  shrinker: Kill old ->shrink API.

Glauber Costa (7):
  fs: bump inode and dentry counters to long
  super: fix calculation of shrinkable objects for small numbers
  list_lru: per-node API
  vmscan: per-node deferred work
  i915: bail out earlier when shrinker cannot acquire mutex
  hugepage: convert huge zero page shrinker to new shrinker API
  list_lru: dynamically adjust node arrays

This patch:

There are situations in very large machines in which we can have a large
quantity of dirty inodes, unused dentries, etc.  This is particularly true
when umounting a filesystem, where eventually since every live object will
eventually be discarded.

Dave Chinner reported a problem with this while experimenting with the
shrinker revamp patchset.  So we believe it is time for a change.  This
patch just moves int to longs.  Machines where it matters should have a
big long anyway.

b0cff9d88c sched: Fix load balancing performance regression in should_we_balance()
Commit 23f0d20 ("sched: Factor out code to should_we_balance()")
introduces the should_we_balance() function.  This function should
return 1 if this cpu is appropriate for balancing. But the newly
introduced code doesn't do so, it returns 0 instead of 1.

This introduces performance regression, reported by Dave Chinner:

                        v4 filesystem           v5 filesystem
3.11+xfsdev:            220k files/s            225k files/s
3.12-git                180k files/s            185k files/s
3.12-git-revert         245k files/s            247k files/s

You can find more detailed information at:

  https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/9/10/1

This patch corrects the return value of should_we_balance()
function as orignally intended.

With this patch, Dave Chinner reports that the regression is gone:

                        v4 filesystem           v5 filesystem
3.11+xfsdev:            220k files/s            225k files/s

4e10f3c988 Kill indirect include of file.h from eventfd.h, use fdget() in cgroup.c
kernel/cgroup.c is the only place in the tree that relies on eventfd.h
pulling file.h; move that include there.  Switch from eventfd_fget()/fput()
to fdget()/fdput(), while we are at it - eventfd_ctx_fileget() will fail
on non-eventfd descriptors just fine, no need to do that check twice...

Pull namespace changes from Eric Biederman:
 "This is an assorted mishmash of small cleanups, enhancements and bug
  fixes.

  The major theme is user namespace mount restrictions.  nsown_capable
  is killed as it encourages not thinking about details that need to be
  considered.  A very hard to hit pid namespace exiting bug was finally
  tracked and fixed.  A couple of cleanups to the basic namespace
  infrastructure.

  Finally there is an enhancement that makes per user namespace
  capabilities usable as capabilities, and an enhancement that allows
  the per userns root to nice other processes in the user namespace"

a0a5a0561f ftrace/rcu: Do not trace debug_lockdep_rcu_enabled()
The function debug_lockdep_rcu_enabled() is part of the RCU lockdep
debugging, and is called very frequently. I found that if I enable
a lot of debugging and run the function graph tracer, this
function can cause a live lock of the system.

We don't usually trace lockdep infrastructure, no need to trace
this either.

 "As a first remark I'd like to point out that the obsolete '-f'
  (--force) option, which has not done anything for several releases,
  has been removed from 'perf record' and related utilities.  Everyone

  Main changes on the perf kernel side:

   - Performance optimizations:
        . for trace events, by Steve Rostedt.
        . for time values, by Peter Zijlstra

   - New hardware support:
        . for Intel Silvermont (22nm Atom) CPUs, by Zheng Yan
        . for Intel SNB-EP uncore PMUs, by Zheng Yan

   - Enhanced hardware support:

        . for group events, by Jiri Olsa
        . for call chains, by Frederic Weisbecker
        . for event stream parsing, by Adrian Hunter

        . Add PERF_EVENT_IOC_ID ioctl to return event ID, by Jiri Olsa
        . Export u64 time_zero on the mmap header page to allow TSC
          calculation, by Adrian Hunter
        . Add dummy software event, by Adrian Hunter.
        . Add a new PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFIER to make samples always
          parseable, by Adrian Hunter.
        . Make Power7 events available via sysfs, by Runzhen Wang.

   - Code cleanups and refactorings:

        . for group events, by Jiri Olsa

   - Documentation updates:
        . for perf_event_type, by Peter Zijlstra

  Main changes on the perf tooling side (some of these tooling changes
  utilize the above kernel side changes):

   - Lots of 'perf trace' enhancements:

        . Make 'perf trace' command line arguments consistent with
          'perf record', by David Ahern.

        . Allow specifying syscalls a la strace, by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.

        . Add --verbose and -o/--output options, by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.

        . Support ! in -e expressions, to filter a list of syscalls,
          by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.

        . Arg formatting improvements to allow masking arguments in
          syscalls such as futex and open, where the some arguments are
          ignored and thus should not be printed depending on other args,
          by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.

        . Beautify futex open, openat, open_by_handle_at, lseek and futex
          syscalls, by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.

        . Add option to analyze events in a file versus live, so that
          one can do:

           [root@zoo ~]# perf record -a -e raw_syscalls:* sleep 1
           [ perf record: Woken up 0 times to write data ]

        . Introduce better formatting of syscall arguments, including so
          far beautifiers for mmap, madvise, syscall return values,
          by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.

5a8e01f8fa sched/cputime: Do not scale when utime == 0
scale_stime() silently assumes that stime < rtime, otherwise
when stime == rtime and both values are big enough (operations
on them do not fit in 32 bits), the resulting scaling stime can
be bigger than rtime. In consequence utime = rtime - stime
results in negative value.

User space visible symptoms of the bug are overflowed TIME
values on ps/top, for example:

 $ ps aux | grep rcu
 root         8  0.0  0.0      0     0 ?        S    12:42   0:00 [rcuc/0]

Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo:
 "A lot of activities on the cgroup front.  Most changes aren't visible
  to userland at all at this point and are laying foundation for the
  planned unified hierarchy.

   - The biggest change is decoupling the lifetime management of css
     (cgroup_subsys_state) from that of cgroup's.  Because controllers
     (cpu, memory, block and so on) will need to be dynamically enabled
     and disabled, css which is the association point between a cgroup
     and a controller may come and go dynamically across the lifetime of
     a cgroup.  Till now, css's were created when the associated cgroup
     was created and stayed till the cgroup got destroyed.

     Assumptions around this tight coupling permeated through cgroup
     core and controllers.  These assumptions are gradually removed,
     which consists bulk of patches, and css destruction path is
     completely decoupled from cgroup destruction path.  Note that
     decoupling of creation path is relatively easy on top of these
     changes and the patchset is pending for the next window.

   - cgroup has its own event mechanism cgroup.event_control, which is
     only used by memcg.  It is overly complex trying to achieve high
     flexibility whose benefits seem dubious at best.  Going forward,
     new events will simply generate file modified event and the
     existing mechanism is being made specific to memcg.  This pull
     request contains prepatory patches for such change.

   - Various fixes and cleanups"

59338f754a ftrace: Fix a slight race in modifying what function callback gets traced
There's a slight race when going from a list function to a non list
function. That is, when only one callback is registered to the function
tracer, it gets called directly by the mcount trampoline. But if this
function has filters, it may be called by the wrong functions.

As the list ops callback that handles multiple callbacks that are
registered to ftrace, it also handles what functions they call. While
the transaction is taking place, use the list function always, and
after all the updates are finished (only the functions that should be
traced are being traced), then we can update the trampoline to call
the function directly.

942e443127 module: Fix mod->mkobj.kobj potentially freed too early
DEBUG_KOBJECT_RELEASE helps to find the issue attached below.

After some investigation, it seems the reason is:
The mod->mkobj.kobj(ffffffffa01600d0 below) is freed together with mod
itself in free_module(). However, its children still hold references to
it, as the delay caused by DEBUG_KOBJECT_RELEASE. So when the
child(holders below) tries to decrease the reference count to its parent
in kobject_del(), BUG happens as it tries to access already freed memory.

This patch tries to fix it by waiting for the mod->mkobj.kobj to be
really released in the module removing process (and some error code
paths).

10866e62e8 sched/fair: Fix the sd_parent_degenerate() code
I found that on my WSM box I had a redundant domain:

[    0.949769] CPU0 attaching sched-domain:
[    0.953765]  domain 0: span 0,12 level SIBLING
[    0.958335]   groups: 0 (cpu_power = 587) 12 (cpu_power = 588)
[    0.964548]   domain 1: span 0-5,12-17 level MC
[    0.969206]    groups: 0,12 (cpu_power = 1175) 1,13 (cpu_power = 1176) 2,14 (cpu_power = 1176) 3,15 (cpu_power = 1176) 4,16 (cpu_power = 1176) 5,17 (cpu_power = 1176)
[    0.984993]    domain 2: span 0-5,12-17 level CPU
[    0.989822]     groups: 0-5,12-17 (cpu_power = 7055)
[    0.995049]     domain 3: span 0-23 level NUMA
[    0.999620]      groups: 0-5,12-17 (cpu_power = 7055) 6-11,18-23 (cpu_power = 7056)

Note how domain 2 has only a single group and spans the same CPUs as
domain 1. We should not keep such domains and do in fact have code to
prune these.

It turns out that the 'new' SD_PREFER_SIBLING flag causes this, it
makes sd_parent_degenerate() fail on the CPU domain. We can easily
fix this by 'ignoring' the SD_PREFER_SIBLING bit and transfering it
to whatever domain ends up covering the span.

With this patch the domains now look like this:

[    0.950419] CPU0 attaching sched-domain:
[    0.954454]  domain 0: span 0,12 level SIBLING
[    0.959039]   groups: 0 (cpu_power = 587) 12 (cpu_power = 588)
[    0.965271]   domain 1: span 0-5,12-17 level MC
[    0.969936]    groups: 0,12 (cpu_power = 1175) 1,13 (cpu_power = 1176) 2,14 (cpu_power = 1176) 3,15 (cpu_power = 1176) 4,16 (cpu_power = 1176) 5,17 (cpu_power = 1176)
[    0.985737]    domain 2: span 0-23 level NUMA
[    0.990231]     groups: 0-5,12-17 (cpu_power = 7055) 6-11,18-23 (cpu_power = 7056)

147c5fc2ba sched/fair: Shrink sg_lb_stats and play memset games
We can shrink sg_lb_stats because rq::nr_running is an unsigned int
and cpu numbers are 'int'

Before:
  sgs:        /* size: 72, cachelines: 2, members: 10 */
  sds:        /* size: 184, cachelines: 3, members: 7 */

After:
  sgs:        /* size: 56, cachelines: 1, members: 10 */
  sds:        /* size: 152, cachelines: 3, members: 7 */

Further we can avoid clearing all of sds since we do a total
clear/assignment of sg_stats in update_sg_lb_stats() with exception of
busiest_stat.avg_load which is referenced in update_sd_pick_busiest().

There is no reason to maintain separate variables for this_group
and busiest_group in sd_lb_stat, except saving some space.
But this structure is always allocated in stack, so this saving
isn't really benificial [peterz: reducing stack space is good; in this
case readability increases enough that I think its still beneficial]

This patch unify these variables, so IMO, readability may be improved.

23f0d2093c sched: Factor out code to should_we_balance()
Now checking whether this cpu is appropriate to balance or not
is embedded into update_sg_lb_stats() and this checking has no direct
relationship to this function. There is not enough reason to place
this checking at update_sg_lb_stats(), except saving one iteration
for sched_group_cpus.

In this patch, I factor out this checking to should_we_balance() function.
And before doing actual work for load_balancing, check whether this cpu is
appropriate to balance via should_we_balance(). If this cpu is not
a candidate for balancing, it quit the work immediately.

With this change, we can save two memset cost and can expect better
compiler optimization.

Below is result of this patch.

The reason is a race in perf_event_task_tick() throttling code.
The race flow (simplified code):

  - perf_throttled_count is per cpu variable and is
    CPU throttling flag, here starting with 0

  - perf_throttled_seq is sequence/domain for allowed
    count of interrupts within the tick, gets increased
    each tick

    on single CPU (CPU bounded event):

      ... workload

    perf_event_task_tick:
    |
    | T0    inc(perf_throttled_seq)
    | T1    needs_unthr = xchg(perf_throttled_count, 0) == 0
     tick gets interrupted:

            ... event gets throttled under new seq ...

      T2    last NMI comes, event is throttled - inc(perf_throttled_count)

     back to tick:
    | perf_adjust_freq_unthr_context:
    |
    | T3    unthrottling is skiped for event (needs_unthr == 0)
    | T4    event is stop and started via freq adjustment
    |
    tick ends

      ... workload
      ... no sample is hit for event ...

    perf_event_task_tick:
    |
    | T5    needs_unthr = xchg(perf_throttled_count, 0) != 0 (from T2)
    | T6    unthrottling is done on event (interrupts == MAX_INTERRUPTS)
    |       event is already started (from T4) -> WARN

Fixing this by not checking needs_unthr again and thus
check all events for unthrottling.

eb75767be0 nohz_full: Force RCU's grace-period kthreads onto timekeeping CPU
Because RCU's quiescent-state-forcing mechanism is used to drive the
full-system-idle state machine, and because this mechanism is executed
by RCU's grace-period kthreads, this commit forces these kthreads to
run on the timekeeping CPU (tick_do_timer_cpu).  To do otherwise would
mean that the RCU grace-period kthreads would force the system into
non-idle state every time they drove the state machine, which would
be just a bit on the futile side.

0edd1b1784 nohz_full: Add full-system-idle state machine
This commit adds the state machine that takes the per-CPU idle data
as input and produces a full-system-idle indication as output.  This
state machine is driven out of RCU's quiescent-state-forcing
mechanism, which invokes rcu_sysidle_check_cpu() to collect per-CPU
idle state and then rcu_sysidle_report() to drive the state machine.

The full-system-idle state is sampled using rcu_sys_is_idle(), which
also drives the state machine if RCU is idle (and does so by forcing
RCU to become non-idle).  This function returns true if all but the
timekeeping CPU (tick_do_timer_cpu) are idle and have been idle long
enough to avoid memory contention on the full_sysidle_state state
variable.  The rcu_sysidle_force_exit() may be called externally
to reset the state machine back into non-idle state.

For large systems the state machine is driven out of RCU's
force-quiescent-state logic, which provides good scalability at the price
of millisecond-scale latencies on the transition to full-system-idle
state.  This is not so good for battery-powered systems, which are usually
small enough that they don't need to care about scalability, but which
do care deeply about energy efficiency.  Small systems therefore drive
the state machine directly out of the idle-entry code.  The number of
CPUs in a "small" system is defined by a new NO_HZ_FULL_SYSIDLE_SMALL
Kconfig parameter, which defaults to 8.  Note that this is a build-time
definition.

6e556ce209 pidns: Don't have unshare(CLONE_NEWPID) imply CLONE_THREAD
I goofed when I made unshare(CLONE_NEWPID) only work in a
single-threaded process.  There is no need for that requirement and in
fact I analyzied things right for setns.  The hard requirement
is for tasks that share a VM to all be in the pid namespace and
we properly prevent that in do_fork.

Just to be certain I took a look through do_wait and
forget_original_parent and there are no cases that make it any harder
for children to be in the multiple pid namespaces than it is for
children to be in the same pid namespace.  I also performed a check to
see if there were in uses of task->nsproxy_pid_ns I was not familiar
with, but it is only used when allocating a new pid for a new task,
and in checks to prevent craziness from happening.

942f40155a PM / hibernate / memory hotplug: Rework mutual exclusion
Since all of the memory hotplug operations have to be carried out
under device_hotplug_lock, they won't need to acquire pm_mutex if
device_hotplug_lock is held around hibernation.

For this reason, make the hibernation code acquire
device_hotplug_lock after freezing user space processes and
release it before thawing them.  At the same tim drop the
lock_system_sleep() and unlock_system_sleep() calls from
lock_memory_hotplug() and unlock_memory_hotplug(), respectively.

8fd37a4c98 PM / hibernate: Create memory bitmaps after freezing user space
The hibernation core uses special memory bitmaps during image
creation and restoration and traditionally those bitmaps are
allocated before freezing tasks, because in the past GFP_KERNEL
allocations might not work after all tasks had been frozen.

However, this is an anachronism, because hibernation_snapshot()
now calls hibernate_preallocate_memory() which allocates memory
for the image upfront anyway, so the memory bitmaps may be
allocated after freezing user space safely.

For this reason, move all of the create_basic_memory_bitmaps()
calls after freeze_processes() and all of the corresponding
free_basic_memory_bitmaps() calls before thaw_processes().

This will allow us to hold device_hotplug_lock around hibernation
without the need to worry about freezing issues with user space
processes attempting to acquire it via sysfs attributes after the
creation of memory bitmaps and before the freezing of tasks.

a8787645e1 Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net
Pull networking fixes from David Miller:

 1) There was a simplification in the ipv6 ndisc packet sending
    attempted here, which avoided using memory accounting on the
    per-netns ndisc socket for sending NDISC packets.  It did fix some
    important issues, but it causes regressions so it gets reverted here
    too.  Specifically, the problem with this change is that the IPV6
    output path really depends upon there being a valid skb->sk
    attached.

    The reason we want to do this change in some form when we figure out
    how to do it right, is that if a device goes down the ndisc_sk
    socket send queue will fill up and block NDISC packets that we want
    to send to other devices too.  That's really bad behavior.

    Hopefully Thomas can come up with a better version of this change.

 2) Fix a severe TCP performance regression by reverting a change made
    to dev_pick_tx() quite some time ago.  From Eric Dumazet.

 3) TIPC returns wrongly signed error codes, fix from Erik Hugne.

 4) Fix OOPS when doing IPSEC over ipv4 tunnels due to orphaning the
    skb->sk too early.  Fix from Li Hongjun.

 5) RAW ipv4 sockets can use the wrong routing key during lookup, from
    Chris Clark.

 6) Similar to #1 revert an older change that tried to use plain
    alloc_skb() for SYN/ACK TCP packets, this broke the netfilter owner
    mark which needs to see the skb->sk for such frames.  From Phil
    Oester.

 7) BNX2x driver bug fixes from Ariel Elior and Yuval Mintz,
    specifically in the handling of virtual functions.

 8) IPSEC path error propagations to sockets is not done properly when
    we have v4 in v6, and v6 in v4 type rules.  Fix from Hannes Frederic
    Sowa.

 9) Fix missing channel context release in mac80211, from Johannes Berg.

10) Fix network namespace handing wrt.  SCM_RIGHTS, from Andy
    Lutomirski.

11) Fix usage of bogus NAPI weight in jme, netxen, and ps3_gelic

12) Hopefully a complete and correct fix for the genetlink dump locking
    and module reference counting.  From Pravin B Shelar.

13) sk_busy_loop() must do a cpu_relax(), from Eliezer Tamir.

14) Fix handling of timestamp offset when restoring a snapshotted TCP

The issue is that when the task group leader of an init process exits
before other tasks of the init process when the init process finally
exits it will be a secondary task sleeping in zap_pid_ns_processes and
waiting to wake up when the number of hashed pids drops to two.  This
case waits forever as free_pid only sends a wake up when the number of
hashed pids drops to 1.

To correct this the simple strategy of sending a possibly unncessary
wake up when the number of hashed pids drops to 2 is adopted.

Sending one extraneous wake up is relatively harmless, at worst we
waste a little cpu time in the rare case when a pid namespace
appropaches exiting.

We can detect the case when the pid namespace drops to just two pids
hashed race free in free_pid.

Dereferencing pid_ns->child_reaper with the pidmap_lock held is safe
without out the tasklist_lock because it is guaranteed that the
detach_pid will be called on the child_reaper before it is freed and
detach_pid calls __change_pid which calls free_pid which takes the
pidmap_lock.  __change_pid only calls free_pid if this is the
last use of the pid.  For a thread that is not the thread group leader
the threads pid will only ever have one user because a threads pid
is not allowed to be the pid of a process, of a process group or
a session.  For a thread that is a thread group leader all of
the other threads of that process will be reaped before it is allowed
for the thread group leader to be reaped ensuring there will only
be one user of the threads pid as a process pid.  Furthermore
because the thread is the init process of a pid namespace all of the
other processes in the pid namespace will have also been already freed
leading to the fact that the pid will not be used as a session pid or
a process group pid for any other running process.

Pull cgroup fix from Tejun Heo:
 "During the percpu reference counting update which was merged during
  v3.11-rc1, the cgroup destruction path was updated so that a cgroup in
  the process of dying may linger on the children list, which was
  necessary as the cgroup should still be included in child/descendant
  iteration while percpu ref is being killed.

  Unfortunately, I forgot to update cgroup destruction path accordingly
  and cgroup destruction may fail spuriously with -EBUSY due to
  lingering dying children even when there's no live child left - e.g.
  "rmdir parent/child parent" will usually fail.

  This can be easily fixed by iterating through the children list to
  verify that there's no live child left.  While this is very late in
  the release cycle, this bug is very visible to userland and I believe
  the fix is relatively safe.

  Thanks Hugh for spotting and providing fix for the issue"

ff3d527ceb perf: make events stream always parsable
The event stream is not always parsable because the format of a sample
is dependent on the sample_type of the selected event.  When there is
more than one selected event and the sample_types are not the same then
parsing becomes problematic.  A sample can be matched to its selected
event using the ID that is allocated when the event is opened.
Unfortunately, to get the ID from the sample means first parsing it.

This patch adds a new sample format bit PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFER that puts
the ID at a fixed position so that the ID can be retrieved without
parsing the sample.  For sample events, that is the first position
immediately after the header.  For non-sample events, that is the last
position.

In this respect parsing samples requires that the sample_type and ID
values are recorded.  For example, perf tools records struct
perf_event_attr and the IDs within the perf.data file.  Those must be
read first before it is possible to parse samples found later in the
perf.data file.

cgroup on parent's children list, letting cgroup_offline_fn() (step 2 of
destruction) remove it; but step 2 is run by work queue, which may not
yet have removed the children when parent destruction checks the list.

Fix that by checking through a non-empty list of children: if every one
of them has already been marked CGRP_DEAD, then it's safe to proceed:
those children are invisible to userspace, and should not obstruct rmdir.

(I didn't see any reason to keep the cgrp->children checks under the
unrelated css_set_lock, so moved them out.)

tj: Flattened nested ifs a bit and updated comment so that it's
    correct on both for-3.11-fixes and for-3.12.

b22ce2785d workqueue: cond_resched() after processing each work item
If !PREEMPT, a kworker running work items back to back can hog CPU.
This becomes dangerous when a self-requeueing work item which is
waiting for something to happen races against stop_machine.  Such
self-requeueing work item would requeue itself indefinitely hogging
the kworker and CPU it's running on while stop_machine would wait for
that CPU to enter stop_machine while preventing anything else from
happening on all other CPUs.  The two would deadlock.

Jamie Liu reports that this deadlock scenario exists around
scsi_requeue_run_queue() and libata port multiplier support, where one
port may exclude command processing from other ports.  With the right
timing, scsi_requeue_run_queue() can end up requeueing itself trying
to execute an IO which is asked to be retried while another device has
an exclusive access, which in turn can't make forward progress due to
stop_machine.

Fix it by invoking cond_resched() after executing each work item.

Correct an issue with /proc/timer_list reported by Holger.

When reading from the proc file with a sufficiently small buffer, 2k so
not really that small, there was one could get hung trying to read the

The timer_list_start function failed to account for the possibility that
the offset was adjusted outside the timer_list_next.

e51db73532 userns: Better restrictions on when proc and sysfs can be mounted
Rely on the fact that another flavor of the filesystem is already
mounted and do not rely on state in the user namespace.

Verify that the mounted filesystem is not covered in any significant
way.  I would love to verify that the previously mounted filesystem
has no mounts on top but there are at least the directories
/proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc and /sys/fs/cgroup/ that exist explicitly
for other filesystems to mount on top of.

Refactor the test into a function named fs_fully_visible and call that
function from the mount routines of proc and sysfs.  This makes this
test local to the filesystems involved and the results current of when
the mounts take place, removing a weird threading of the user
namespace, the mount namespace and the filesystems themselves.

7941cb027d cgroup: make cgroup_event hold onto cgroup_subsys_state instead of cgroup
Currently, each registered cgroup_event holds an extra reference to
the cgroup.  This is a bit weird as events are subsystem specific and
will also be incorrect in the planned unified hierarchy as css
(cgroup_subsys_state) may come and go dynamically across the lifetime
of a cgroup.  Holding onto cgroup won't prevent the target css from
going away.

Update cgroup_event to hold onto the css the traget file belongs to
instead of cgroup.

35cf083619 cgroup: rename cgroup_css_from_dir() to css_from_dir() and update its syntax
cgroup_css_from_dir() will grow another user.  In preparation, make
the following changes.

* All css functions are prefixed with just "css_", rename it to
  css_from_dir().

* Take dentry * instead of file * as dentry is what ultimately
  identifies a cgroup and file may not always be available.  Note that
  the function now checkes whether @dentry->d_inode is NULL as the
  caller now may specify a negative dentry.

* Make it take cgroup_subsys * instead of integer subsys_id.  This
  simplifies the function and allows specifying no subsystem for
  cgroup->dummy_css.

* Make return section a bit less verbose.

This patch doesn't introduce any behavior changes.

ab013c5f60 module: Add flag to allow mod params to have no arguments
Currently the params.c code allows only two "set" functions to have
no arguments. If a parameter does not have an argument, then it
looks at the set function and tests if it is either param_set_bool()
or param_set_bint(). If it is not one of these functions, then it
fails the loading of the module.

But there may be module parameters that have different set functions
and still allow no arguments. But unless each of these cases adds
their function to the if statement, it wont be allowed to have no
arguments. This method gets rather messing and does not scale.

Instead, introduce a flags field to the kernel_param_ops, where if
the flag KERNEL_PARAM_FL_NOARG is set, the parameter will not fail
if it does not contain an argument. It will be expected that the
corresponding set function can handle a NULL pointer as "val".
