7a11e2058f rcu: Move TINY_PREEMPT_RCU away from raw_local_irq_save()
The use of raw_local_irq_save() is unnecessary, given that local_irq_save()
really does disable interrupts.  Also, it appears to interfere with lockdep.
Therefore, this commit moves to local_irq_save().

fdab649b1a rcu: Remove redundant memory barrier from __call_rcu()
The first memory barrier in __call_rcu() is supposed to order any
updates done beforehand by the caller against the actual queuing
of the callback.  However, the second memory barrier (which is intended
to order incrementing the queue lengths before queuing the callback)
is also between the caller's updates and the queuing of the callback.
The second memory barrier can therefore serve both purposes.

This commit therefore removes the first memory barrier.

c96ea7cfdd rcu: Avoid spurious RCU CPU stall warnings
If a given CPU avoids the idle loop but also avoids starting a new
RCU grace period for a full minute, RCU can issue spurious RCU CPU
stall warnings.  This commit fixes this issue by adding a check for
ongoing grace period to avoid these spurious stall warnings.

c8020a67e6 rcu: Protect rcu_node accesses during CPU stall warnings
The print_other_cpu_stall() function accesses a number of rcu_node
fields without protection from the ->lock.  In theory, this is not
a problem because the fields accessed are all integers, but in
practice the compiler can get nasty.  Therefore, the commit extends
the existing critical section to cover the entire loop body.

5fd4dc068c rcu: Avoid rcu_print_detail_task_stall_rnp() segfault
The rcu_print_detail_task_stall_rnp() function invokes
rcu_preempt_blocked_readers_cgp() to verify that there are some preempted
RCU readers blocking the current grace period outside of the protection
of the rcu_node structure's ->lock.  This means that the last blocked
reader might exit its RCU read-side critical section and remove itself
from the ->blkd_tasks list before the ->lock is acquired, resulting in
a segmentation fault when the subsequent code attempts to dereference
the now-NULL gp_tasks pointer.

This commit therefore moves the test under the lock.  This will not
have measurable effect on lock contention because this code is invoked
only when printing RCU CPU stall warnings, in other words, in the common
case, never.

115f7a7ca0 rcu: Apply for_each_rcu_flavor() to increment_cpu_stall_ticks()
The increment_cpu_stall_ticks() function listed each RCU flavor
explicitly, with an ifdef to handle preemptible RCU.  This commit
therefore applies for_each_rcu_flavor() to save a line of code.

Because this commit switches from a code-based enumeration of the
flavors of RCU to an rcu_state-list-based enumeration, it is no longer
possible to apply __get_cpu_var() to the per-CPU rcu_data structures.
We instead use __this_cpu_var() on the rcu_state structure's ->rda field
that references the corresponding rcu_data structures.

a82dcc7602 rcu: Make offline-CPU checking allow for indefinite delays
The rcu_implicit_offline_qs() function implicitly assumed that execution
would progress predictably when interrupts are disabled, which is of course
not guaranteed when running on a hypervisor.  Furthermore, this function
is short, and is called from one place only in a short function.

This commit therefore ensures that the timing is checked before
checking the condition, which guarantees correct behavior even given
indefinite delays.  It also inlines rcu_implicit_offline_qs() into
rcu_implicit_dynticks_qs().

5cc900cf55 rcu: Improve boost selection when moving tasks to root rcu_node
The rcu_preempt_offline_tasks() moves all tasks queued on a given leaf
rcu_node structure to the root rcu_node, which is done when the last CPU
corresponding the the leaf rcu_node structure goes offline.  Now that
RCU-preempt's synchronize_rcu_expedited() implementation blocks CPU-hotplug
operations during the initialization of each rcu_node structure's
->boost_tasks pointer, rcu_preempt_offline_tasks() can do a better job
of setting the root rcu_node's ->boost_tasks pointer.

The key point is that rcu_preempt_offline_tasks() runs as part of the
CPU-hotplug process, so that a concurrent synchronize_rcu_expedited()
is guaranteed to either have not started on the one hand (in which case
there is no boosting on behalf of the expedited grace period) or to be
completely initialized on the other (in which case, in the absence of
other priority boosting, all ->boost_tasks pointers will be initialized).
Therefore, if rcu_preempt_offline_tasks() finds that the ->boost_tasks
pointer is equal to the ->exp_tasks pointer, it can be sure that it is
correctly placed.

In the case where there was boosting ongoing at the time that the
synchronize_rcu_expedited() function started, different nodes might start
boosting the tasks blocking the expedited grace period at different times.
In this mixed case, the root node will either be boosting tasks for
the expedited grace period already, or it will start as soon as it gets
done boosting for the normal grace period -- but in this latter case,
the root node's tasks needed to be boosted in any case.

This commit therefore adds a check of the ->boost_tasks pointer against
the ->exp_tasks pointer to the list that prevents updating ->boost_tasks.

b4270ee356 rcu: Permit RCU_NONIDLE() to be used from interrupt context
There is a need to use RCU from interrupt context, but either before
rcu_irq_enter() is called or after rcu_irq_exit() is called.  If the
interrupt occurs from idle, then lockdep-RCU will complain about such
uses, as they appear to be illegal uses of RCU from the idle loop.
In other environments, RCU_NONIDLE() could be used to properly protect
the use of RCU, but RCU_NONIDLE() currently cannot be invoked except
from process context.

This commit therefore modifies RCU_NONIDLE() to permit its use more
globally.

818615c4cd rcu: Pull TINY_RCU dyntick-idle tracing into non-idle region
Because TINY_RCU's idle detection keys directly off of the nesting
level, rather than from a separate variable as in TREE_RCU, the
TINY_RCU dyntick-idle tracing on transition to idle must happen
before the change to the nesting level.  This commit therefore makes
this change by passing the desired new value (rather than the old value)
of the nesting level in to rcu_idle_enter_common().

e3ebfb96f3 rcu: Add PROVE_RCU_DELAY to provoke difficult races
There have been some recent bugs that were triggered only when
preemptible RCU's __rcu_read_unlock() was preempted just after setting
->rcu_read_lock_nesting to INT_MIN, which is a low-probability event.
Therefore, reproducing those bugs (to say nothing of gaining confidence
in alleged fixes) was quite difficult.  This commit therefore creates
a new debug-only RCU kernel config option that forces a short delay
in __rcu_read_unlock() to increase the probability of those sorts of
bugs occurring.

a10d206ef1 rcu: Fix day-one dyntick-idle stall-warning bug
Each grace period is supposed to have at least one callback waiting
for that grace period to complete.  However, if CONFIG_NO_HZ=n, an
extra callback-free grace period is no big problem -- it will chew up
a tiny bit of CPU time, but it will complete normally.  In contrast,
CONFIG_NO_HZ=y kernels have the potential for all the CPUs to go to
sleep indefinitely, in turn indefinitely delaying completion of the
callback-free grace period.  Given that nothing is waiting on this grace
period, this is also not a problem.

That is, unless RCU CPU stall warnings are also enabled, as they are
in recent kernels.  In this case, if a CPU wakes up after at least one
minute of inactivity, an RCU CPU stall warning will result.  The reason
that no one noticed until quite recently is that most systems have enough
OS noise that they will never remain absolutely idle for a full minute.
But there are some embedded systems with cut-down userspace configurations
that consistently get into this situation.

All this begs the question of exactly how a callback-free grace period
gets started in the first place.  This can happen due to the fact that
CPUs do not necessarily agree on which grace period is in progress.
If a CPU still believes that the grace period that just completed is
still ongoing, it will believe that it has callbacks that need to wait for
another grace period, never mind the fact that the grace period that they
were waiting for just completed.  This CPU can therefore erroneously
decide to start a new grace period.  Note that this can happen in
TREE_RCU and TREE_PREEMPT_RCU even on a single-CPU system:  Deadlock
considerations mean that the CPU that detected the end of the grace
period is not necessarily officially informed of this fact for some time.

Once this CPU notices that the earlier grace period completed, it will
invoke its callbacks.  It then won't have any callbacks left.  If no
other CPU has any callbacks, we now have a callback-free grace period.

This commit therefore makes CPUs check more carefully before starting a
new grace period.  This new check relies on an array of tail pointers
into each CPU's list of callbacks.  If the CPU is up to date on which
grace periods have completed, it checks to see if any callbacks follow
the RCU_DONE_TAIL segment, otherwise it checks to see if any callbacks
follow the RCU_WAIT_TAIL segment.  The reason that this works is that
the RCU_WAIT_TAIL segment will be promoted to the RCU_DONE_TAIL segment
as soon as the CPU is officially notified that the old grace period
has ended.

This change is to cpu_needs_another_gp(), which is called in a number
of places.  The only one that really matters is in rcu_start_gp(), where
the root rcu_node structure's ->lock is held, which prevents any
other CPU from starting or completing a grace period, so that the
comparison that determines whether the CPU is missing the completion
of a grace period is stable.

cee58483cf time: Move ktime_t overflow checking into timespec_valid_strict
Andreas Bombe reported that the added ktime_t overflow checking added to
timespec_valid in commit 4e8b14526c ("time: Improve sanity checking of
timekeeping inputs") was causing problems with X.org because it caused
timeouts larger then KTIME_T to be invalid.

Previously, these large timeouts would be clamped to KTIME_MAX and would
never expire, which is valid.

This patch splits the ktime_t overflow checking into a new
timespec_valid_strict function, and converts the timekeeping codes
internal checking to use this more strict function.

c7a3a88c93 uprobes: Fix mmap_region()'s mm->mm_rb corruption if uprobe_mmap() fails
This patch fixes:

  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=843640

If mmap_region()->uprobe_mmap() fails, unmap_and_free_vma path
does unmap_region() but does not remove the soon-to-be-freed vma
from rb tree. Actually there are more problems but this is how
William noticed this bug.

Perhaps we could do do_munmap() + return in this case, but in
fact it is simply wrong to abort if uprobe_mmap() fails. Until
at least we move the !UPROBE_COPY_INSN code from
install_breakpoint() to uprobe_register().

For example, uprobe_mmap()->install_breakpoint() can fail if the
probed insn is not supported (remember, uprobe_register()
succeeds if nobody mmaps inode/offset), mmap() should not fail
in this case.

dup_mmap()->uprobe_mmap() is wrong too by the same reason,
fork() can race with uprobe_register() and fail for no reason if
it wins the race and does install_breakpoint() first.

And, if nothing else, both mmap_region() and dup_mmap() return
success if uprobe_mmap() fails. Change them to ignore the error
code from uprobe_mmap().

60916a9382 tracing/syscalls: Fix perf syscall tracing when syscall_nr == -1
syscall_get_nr can return -1 in the case that the task is not executing
a system call.

This patch fixes perf_syscall_{enter,exit} to check that the syscall
number is valid before using it as an index into a bitmap.

4e8b14526c time: Improve sanity checking of timekeeping inputs
Unexpected behavior could occur if the time is set to a value large
enough to overflow a 64bit ktime_t (which is something larger then the
year 2262).

Also unexpected behavior could occur if large negative offsets are
injected via adjtimex.

So this patch improves the sanity check timekeeping inputs by
improving the timespec_valid() check, and then makes better use of
timespec_valid() to make sure we don't set the time to an invalid
negative value or one that overflows ktime_t.

Note: This does not protect from setting the time close to overflowing
ktime_t and then letting natural accumulation cause the overflow.

b3e8692b4d audit: clean up refcounting in audit-tree
Drop the initial reference by fsnotify_init_mark early instead of
audit_tree_freeing_mark() at destroy time.

In the cases we destroy the mark before we drop the initial reference we need to

a2140fc0cb audit: fix refcounting in audit-tree
Refcounting of fsnotify_mark in audit tree is broken.  E.g:

                              refcount
create_chunk
  alloc_chunk                 1
  fsnotify_add_mark           2

untag_chunk
  fsnotify_get_mark           3
  fsnotify_destroy_mark
    audit_tree_freeing_mark   2
  fsnotify_put_mark           1
  fsnotify_put_mark           0
  via destroy_list
    fsnotify_mark_destroy    -1

This was reported by various people as triggering Oops when stopping auditd.

We could just remove the put_mark from audit_tree_freeing_mark() but that would
break freeing via inode destruction.  So this patch simply omits a put_mark
after calling destroy_mark or adds a get_mark before.

The additional get_mark is necessary where there's no other put_mark after
fsnotify_destroy_mark() since it assumes that the caller is holding a reference
(or the inode is keeping the mark pinned, not the case here AFAICS).

bea6832cc8 sched: fix divide by zero at {thread_group,task}_times
On architectures where cputime_t is 64 bit type, is possible to trigger
divide by zero on do_div(temp, (__force u32) total) line, if total is a
non zero number but has lower 32 bit's zeroed. Removing casting is not
a good solution since some do_div() implementations do cast to u32
internally.

a35b6466aa sched, cgroup: Reduce rq->lock hold times for large cgroup hierarchies
Peter Portante reported that for large cgroup hierarchies (and or on
large CPU counts) we get immense lock contention on rq->lock and stuff
stops working properly.

His workload was a ton of processes, each in their own cgroup,
everybody idling except for a sporadic wakeup once every so often.

It was found that:

  schedule()
    idle_balance()
      load_balance()
        local_irq_save()
        double_rq_lock()
        update_h_load()
          walk_tg_tree(tg_load_down)
            tg_load_down()

Results in an entire cgroup hierarchy walk under rq->lock for every
new-idle balance and since new-idle balance isn't throttled this
results in a lot of work while holding the rq->lock.

This patch does two things, it removes the work from under rq->lock
based on the good principle of race and pray which is widely employed
in the load-balancer as a whole. And secondly it throttles the
update_h_load() calculation to max once per jiffy.

I considered excluding update_h_load() for new-idle balance
all-together, but purely relying on regular balance passes to update
this data might not work out under some rare circumstances where the
new-idle busiest isn't the regular busiest for a while (unlikely, but
a nightmare to debug if someone hits it and suffers).

e3756477ae printk: Fix calculation of length used to discard records
While tracking down a weird buffer overflow issue in a program that
looked to be sane, I started double checking the length returned by
syslog(SYSLOG_ACTION_READ_ALL, ...) to make sure it wasn't overflowing
the buffer.

Sure enough, it was.  I saw this in strace:

  11339 syslog(SYSLOG_ACTION_READ_ALL, "<5>[244017.708129] REISERFS (dev"..., 8192) = 8279

It turns out that the loops that calculate how much space the entries
will take when they're copied don't include the newlines and prefixes
that will be included in the final output since prev flags is passed as
zero.

This patch properly accounts for it and fixes the overflow.

which should really be a proper exit sequence, fixing the bug as a

Merge tag 'for_linux-3.6-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jwessel/kgdb

Pull KGDB/KDB/usb-dbgp fixes and cleanups from Jason Wessel:
 "There are no new features, those will be delayed to the 3.7 window.
  There are only fixes/cleanup against the usual kernel churn and we are
  removing more lines than we add:

   - usb-dbgp - increase the controller wait time to come out of halt.
   - kdb - Remove unused KDB_FLAG_ONLY_DO_DUMP code and cpu in more prompt
   - debug core - pass NMI type on archs that provide NMI types"

Linus Torvalds
a0e881b7c1 Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs
Pull second vfs pile from Al Viro:
 "The stuff in there: fsfreeze deadlock fixes by Jan (essentially, the
  deadlock reproduced by xfstests 068), symlink and hardlink restriction
  patches, plus assorted cleanups and fixes.

  Note that another fsfreeze deadlock (emergency thaw one) is *not*
  dealt with - the series by Fernando conflicts a lot with Jan's, breaks
  userland ABI (FIFREEZE semantics gets changed) and trades the deadlock
  for massive vfsmount leak; this is going to be handled next cycle.
  There probably will be another pull request, but that stuff won't be
  in it."

Fix up trivial conflicts due to unrelated changes next to each other in
drivers/{staging/gdm72xx/usb_boot.c, usb/gadget/storage_common.c}

Linus Torvalds
2d53492620 irqdomain changes for Linux v3.6
Round of refactoring and enhancements to irq_domain infrastructure. This
 series starts the process of simplifying irqdomain. The ultimate goal is
 to merge LEGACY, LINEAR and TREE mappings into a single system, but had
 to back off from that after some last minute bugs. Instead it mainly
 reorganizes the code and ensures that the reverse map gets populated
 when the irq is mapped instead of the first time it is looked up.
 
 Merging of the irq_domain types is deferred to v3.7
 
 In other news, this series adds helpers for creating static mappings on
 a linear or tree mapping.
