a2e2725541 net: Introduce recvmmsg socket syscall
Meaning receive multiple messages, reducing the number of syscalls and
net stack entry/exit operations.

Next patches will introduce mechanisms where protocols that want to
optimize this operation will provide an unlocked_recvmsg operation.

This takes into account comments made by:

. Paul Moore: sock_recvmsg is called only for the first datagram,
  sock_recvmsg_nosec is used for the rest.

. Caitlin Bestler: recvmmsg now has a struct timespec timeout, that
  works in the same fashion as the ppoll one.

  If the underlying protocol returns a datagram with MSG_OOB set, this
  will make recvmmsg return right away with as many datagrams (+ the OOB
  one) it has received so far.

. Rémi Denis-Courmont & Steven Whitehouse: If we receive N < vlen
  datagrams and then recvmsg returns an error, recvmmsg will return
  the successfully received datagrams, store the error and return it
  in the next call.

This paves the way for a subsequent optimization, sk_prot->unlocked_recvmsg,
where we will be able to acquire the lock only at batch start and end, not at
every underlying recvmsg call.

4e649152cb memcg: some modification to softlimit under hierarchical memory reclaim.
This patch clean up/fixes for memcg's uncharge soft limit path.

Problems:
  Now, res_counter_charge()/uncharge() handles softlimit information at
  charge/uncharge and softlimit-check is done when event counter per memcg
  goes over limit. Now, event counter per memcg is updated only when
  memory usage is over soft limit. Here, considering hierarchical memcg
  management, ancesotors should be taken care of.

  Now, ancerstors(hierarchy) are handled in charge() but not in uncharge().
  This is not good.

  Prolems:
  1. memcg's event counter incremented only when softlimit hits. That's bad.
     It makes event counter hard to be reused for other purpose.

  2. At uncharge, only the lowest level rescounter is handled. This is bug.
     Because ancesotor's event counter is not incremented, children should
     take care of them.

  3. res_counter_uncharge()'s 3rd argument is NULL in most case.
     ops under res_counter->lock should be small. No "if" sentense is better.

Fixes:
  * Removed soft_limit_xx poitner and checks in charge and uncharge.
    Do-check-only-when-necessary scheme works enough well without them.

  * make event-counter of memcg incremented at every charge/uncharge.
    (per-cpu area will be accessed soon anyway)

  * All ancestors are checked at soft-limit-check. This is necessary because
    ancesotor's event counter may never be modified. Then, they should be
    checked at the same time.

3ae91c21dd module: fix up CONFIG_KALLSYMS=n build.
Starting from commit 4a4962263f "reduce
symbol table for loaded modules (v2)", the kernel/module.c build is broken
with CONFIG_KALLSYMS disabled.

  CC      kernel/module.o
kernel/module.c:1995: warning: type defaults to 'int' in declaration of 'Elf_Hdr'
kernel/module.c:1995: error: expected ';', ',' or ')' before '*' token
kernel/module.c: In function 'load_module':
kernel/module.c:2203: error: 'strmap' undeclared (first use in this function)
kernel/module.c:2203: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
kernel/module.c:2203: error: for each function it appears in.)
kernel/module.c:2239: error: 'symoffs' undeclared (first use in this function)
kernel/module.c:2239: error: implicit declaration of function 'layout_symtab'
kernel/module.c:2240: error: 'stroffs' undeclared (first use in this function)
make[1]: *** [kernel/module.o] Error 1
make: *** [kernel/module.o] Error 2

There are three different issues:

    - layout_symtab() takes a const Elf_Ehdr

    - layout_symtab() needs to return a value

    - symoffs/stroffs/strmap are referenced by the load_module() code
      despite being ifdefed out, which seems unnecessary given the noop
      behaviour of layout_symtab()/add_kallsyms() in the case of
      CONFIG_KALLSYMS=n.

b0da3f0dad Add a tracepoint for block request remapping
Since 2.6.31 now has request-based device-mapper, it's useful to have
a tracepoint for request-remapping as well as bio-remapping.
This patch adds a tracepoint for request-remapping, trace_block_rq_remap().

152f9d0710 sched_clock: Fix atomicity/continuity bug by using cmpxchg64()
Commit def0a9b257 (sched_clock: Make it NMI safe) assumed
cmpxchg() of 64bit values was available on X86_32.

That is not so - and causes some subtle scheduler misbehavior due
to incorrect timestamps off to up by ~4 seconds.

Two symptoms are known right now:

 - interactivity problems seen by Arjan: up to 600 msecs
   latencies instead of the expected 20-40 msecs. These
   latencies are very visible on the desktop.

 - incorrect CPU stats: occasionally too high percentages in 'top',
   and crazy CPU usage stats.

clocksource_resume is called early in the resume process, there is
only one cpu, no processes are running and the interrupts are
disabled. It is therefore possible to resume the clocksources
without taking the clocksource mutex.

ffa9f12a41 module: don't call percpu_modfree on NULL pointer.
The general one handles NULL, the static obsolescent
(CONFIG_HAVE_LEGACY_PER_CPU_AREA) one in module.c doesn't; Eric's
commit 720eba31 assumed it did, and various frobbings since then kept
that assumption.

All other callers in module.c all protect it with an if; this effectively
does the same as free_init is only goto if we fail percpu_modalloc().

Normally the twisty paths of sysfs will free the attributes, but not if

load_module).

26d052bfce param: allow whitespace as kernel parameter separator
Some boot mechanisms require that kernel parameters are stored in a
separate file which is loaded to memory without further processing
(e.g. the "Load from FTP" method on s390). When such a file contains
newline characters, the kernel parameter preceding the newline might
not be correctly parsed (due to the newline being stuck to the end of
the actual parameter value) which can lead to boot failures.

This patch improves kernel command line usability in such a situation
by allowing generic whitespace characters as separators between kernel
parameters.

801460d0cf task_struct cleanup: move binfmt field to mm_struct
Because the binfmt is not different between threads in the same process,
it can be moved from task_struct to mm_struct.  And binfmt moudle is
handled per mm_struct instead of task_struct.

123be07b0b fork(): disable CLONE_PARENT for init
When global or container-init processes use CLONE_PARENT, they create a
multi-rooted process tree.  Besides siblings of global init remain as
zombies on exit since they are not reaped by their parent (swapper).  So
prevent global and container-inits from creating siblings.

a293980c2e exec: let do_coredump() limit the number of concurrent dumps to pipes
Introduce core pipe limiting sysctl.

Since we can dump cores to pipe, rather than directly to the filesystem,
we create a condition in which a user can create a very high load on the
system simply by running bad applications.

If the pipe reader specified in core_pattern is poorly written, we can
have lots of ourstandig resources and processes in the system.

This sysctl introduces an ability to limit that resource consumption.
core_pipe_limit defines how many in-flight dumps may be run in parallel,
dumps beyond this value are skipped and a note is made in the kernel log.
A special value of 0 in core_pipe_limit denotes unlimited core dumps may
be handled (this is the default value).

ae6d2ed7bb signals: tracehook_notify_jctl change
This changes tracehook_notify_jctl() so it's called with the siglock held,
and changes its argument and return value definition.  These clean-ups
make it a better fit for what new tracing hooks need to check.

Tracing needs the siglock here, held from the time TASK_STOPPED was set,
to avoid potential SIGCONT races if it wants to allow any blocking in its
tracing hooks.

This also folds the finish_stop() function into its caller
do_signal_stop().  The function is short, called only once and only
unconditionally.  It aids readability to fold it in.

b6fe2d117e wait_noreap_copyout(): check for ->wo_info != NULL
Current behaviour of sys_waitid() looks odd.  If user passes infop ==
NULL, sys_waitid() returns success.  When user additionally specifies flag
WNOWAIT, sys_waitid() returns -EFAULT on the same conditions.  When user
combines WNOWAIT with WCONTINUED, sys_waitid() again returns success.

This patch adds check for ->wo_info in wait_noreap_copyout().

User-visible change: starting from this commit, sys_waitid() always checks
infop != NULL and does not fail if it is NULL.

dfe16dfa4a do_wait: fix sys_waitid()-specific behaviour
do_wait() checks ->wo_info to figure out who is the caller.  If it's not
NULL the caller should be sys_waitid(), in that case do_wait() fixes up
the retval or zeros ->wo_info, depending on retval from underlying
function.

This is bug: user can pass ->wo_info == NULL and sys_waitid() will return
incorrect value.

man 2 waitid says:

	waitid(): returns 0 on success

Test-case:

	int main(void)
	{
		if (fork())
			assert(waitid(P_ALL, 0, NULL, WEXITED) == 0);

		return 0;
	}

Result:

	Assertion `waitid(P_ALL, 0, ((void *)0), 4) == 0' failed.

Move that code to sys_waitid().

User-visible change: sys_waitid() will return 0 on success, either
infop is set or not.

Note, there's another bug in wait_noreap_copyout() which affects
return value of sys_waitid(). It will be fixed in next patch.

989264f464 do_wait-wakeup-optimization: simplify task_pid_type()
task_pid_type() is only used by eligible_pid() which has to check wo_type
!= PIDTYPE_MAX anyway.  Remove this check from task_pid_type() and factor
out ->pids[type] access, this shrinks .text a bit and simplifies the code.

The matches the behaviour of other similar helpers, say get_task_pid().

5c01ba49e6 do_wait-wakeup-optimization: fix child_wait_callback()->eligible_child() usage
child_wait_callback()->eligible_child() is not right, we can miss the
wakeup if the task was detached before __wake_up_parent() and the caller
of do_wait() didn't use __WALL.

Move ->wo_pid checks from eligible_child() to the new helper,
eligible_pid(), and change child_wait_callback() to use it instead of
eligible_child().

Note: actually I think it would be better to fix the __WCLONE check in
eligible_child(), it doesn't look exactly right.  But it is not clear what
is the supposed behaviour, and any change is user-visible.

b4fe51823d do_wait() wakeup optimization: child_wait_callback: check __WNOTHREAD case
Suggested by Roland.

do_wait(__WNOTHREAD) can only succeed if the caller is either ptracer, or
it is ->real_parent and the child is not traced. IOW, caller == p->parent
otherwise we should not wake up.

Change child_wait_callback() to check this. Ratan reports the workload with
CPU load >99% caused by unnecessary wakeups, should be fixed by this patch.

Ratan Nalumasu reported that in a process with many threads doing
unnecessary wakeups.  Every waiting thread in the process wakes up to loop
through the children and see that the only ones it cares about are still
not ready.

Now that we have struct wait_opts we can change do_wait/__wake_up_parent
to use filtered wakeups.

We can make child_wait_callback() more clever later, right now it only
checks eligible_child().

a7f0765edf ptrace: __ptrace_detach: do __wake_up_parent() if we reap the tracee
The bug is old, it wasn't cause by recent changes.

Test case:

	static void *tfunc(void *arg)
	{
		int pid = (long)arg;

		assert(ptrace(PTRACE_ATTACH, pid, NULL, NULL) == 0);
		kill(pid, SIGKILL);

		sleep(1);
		return NULL;
	}

	int main(void)
	{
		pthread_t th;
		long pid = fork();

		if (!pid)
			pause();

		signal(SIGCHLD, SIG_IGN);
		assert(pthread_create(&th, NULL, tfunc, (void*)pid) == 0);

		int r = waitpid(-1, NULL, __WNOTHREAD);
		printf("waitpid: %d %m\n", r);

		return 0;
	}

Before the patch this program hangs, after this patch waitpid() correctly
fails with errno == -ECHILD.

The problem is, __ptrace_detach() reaps the EXIT_ZOMBIE tracee if its
->real_parent is our sub-thread and we ignore SIGCHLD.  But in this case
we should wake up other threads which can sleep in do_wait().

f64c3f5494 memory controller: soft limit organize cgroups
Organize cgroups over soft limit in a RB-Tree

Introduce an RB-Tree for storing memory cgroups that are over their soft
limit.  The overall goal is to

1. Add a memory cgroup to the RB-Tree when the soft limit is exceeded.
   We are careful about updates, updates take place only after a particular
   time interval has passed
2. We remove the node from the RB-Tree when the usage goes below the soft
   limit

The next set of patches will exploit the RB-Tree to get the group that is
over its soft limit by the largest amount and reclaim from it, when we
face memory contention.

296c81d89f memory controller: soft limit interface
Add an interface to allow get/set of soft limits.  Soft limits for memory
plus swap controller (memsw) is currently not supported.  Resource
counters have been enhanced to support soft limits and new type
RES_SOFT_LIMIT has been added.  Unlike hard limits, soft limits can be
directly set and do not need any reclaim or checks before setting them to
a newer value.

Kamezawa-San raised a question as to whether soft limit should belong to
res_counter.  Since all resources understand the basic concepts of hard
and soft limits, it is justified to add soft limits here.  Soft limits are
a generic resource usage feature, even file system quotas support soft
limits.

be367d0992 cgroups: let ss->can_attach and ss->attach do whole threadgroups at a time
Alter the ss->can_attach and ss->attach functions to be able to deal with
a whole threadgroup at a time, for use in cgroup_attach_proc.  (This is a
pre-patch to cgroup-procs-writable.patch.)

Currently, new mode of the attach function can only tell the subsystem
about the old cgroup of the threadgroup leader.  No subsystem currently
needs that information for each thread that's being moved, but if one were
to be added (for example, one that counts tasks within a group) this bit
would need to be reworked a bit to tell the subsystem the right
information.

72a8cb30d1 cgroups: ensure correct concurrent opening/reading of pidlists across pid namespaces
Previously there was the problem in which two processes from different pid
namespaces reading the tasks or procs file could result in one process
seeing results from the other's namespace.  Rather than one pidlist for
each file in a cgroup, we now keep a list of pidlists keyed by namespace
and file type (tasks versus procs) in which entries are placed on demand.
Each pidlist has its own lock, and that the pidlists themselves are passed
around in the seq_file's private pointer means we don't have to touch the
cgroup or its master list except when creating and destroying entries.
