d2709c7ce4 perf: Make perf build for x86 with UAPI disintegration applied
Make perf build for x86 once the UAPI disintegration patches for that arch
have been applied by adding the appropriate -I flags - in the right order -
and then converting some #includes that use ../.. notation to find main kernel
headerfiles to use <asm/foo.h> and <linux/foo.h> instead.

Note that -Iarch/foo/include/uapi is present _before_ -Iarch/foo/include.
This makes sure we get the userspace version of the pt_regs struct.  Ideally,
we wouldn't have the latter -I flag at all, but unfortunately we want
asm/svm.h and asm/vmx.h in builtin-kvm.c and these aren't part of the UAPI -
at least not for x86.  I wonder if the bits outside of the __KERNEL__ guards
*should* be transferred there.

I note also that perf seems to do its dependency handling manually by listing
all the header files it might want to use in LIB_H in the Makefile.  Can this
be changed to use -MD?

Note that to do make this work, we need to export and UAPI disintegrate
linux/hw_breakpoint.h, which I think should've been exported previously so that
perf can access the bits.  We have to do this in the same patch to maintain
bisectability.

0a950f65e1 cgroup: add cgroup->id
With the introduction of generic cgroup hierarchy iterators, css_id is
being phased out.  It was unnecessarily complex, id'ing the wrong
thing (cgroups need IDs, not CSSes) and has other oddities like not
being available at ->css_alloc().

This patch adds cgroup->id, which is a simple per-hierarchy
ida-allocated ID which is assigned before ->css_alloc() and released
after ->css_free().

033fa1c5f5 cgroup, cpuset: remove cgroup_subsys->post_clone()
Currently CGRP_CPUSET_CLONE_CHILDREN triggers ->post_clone().  Now
that clone_children is cpuset specific, there's no reason to have this
rather odd option activation mechanism in cgroup core.  cpuset can
check the flag from its ->css_allocate() and take the necessary
action.

Move cpuset_post_clone() logic to the end of cpuset_css_alloc() and
remove cgroup_subsys->post_clone().

Loosely based on Glauber's "generalize post_clone into post_create"
patch.

a31f2d3ff7 cgroup: introduce CSS_ONLINE flag and on/offline_css() helpers
New helpers on/offline_css() respectively wrap ->post_create() and
->pre_destroy() invocations.  online_css() sets CSS_ONLINE after
->post_create() is complete and offline_css() invokes ->pre_destroy()
iff CSS_ONLINE is set and clears it while also handling the temporary
dropping of cgroup_mutex.

This patch doesn't introduce any behavior change at the moment but
will be used to improve cgroup_create() failure path and allow
->post_create() to fail.

febfcef60d cgroup: cgroup->dentry isn't a RCU pointer
cgroup->dentry is marked and used as a RCU pointer; however, it isn't
one - the final dentry put doesn't go through call_rcu().  cgroup and
dentry share the same RCU freeing rule via synchronize_rcu() in
cgroup_diput() (kfree_rcu() used on cgrp is unnecessary).  If cgrp is
accessible under RCU read lock, so is its dentry and dereferencing
cgrp->dentry doesn't need any further RCU protection or annotation.

While not being accurate, before the previous patch, the RCU accessors
served a purpose as memory barriers - cgroup->dentry used to be
assigned after the cgroup was made visible to cgroup_path(), so the
assignment and dereferencing in cgroup_path() needed the memory
barrier pair.  Now that list_add_tail_rcu() happens after
cgroup->dentry is assigned, this no longer is necessary.

Remove the now unnecessary and misleading RCU annotations from
cgroup->dentry.  To make up for the removal of rcu_dereference_check()
in cgroup_path(), add an explicit rcu_lockdep_assert(), which asserts
the dereference rule of @cgrp, not cgrp->dentry.

fd25b4c2f2 vtime: Remove the underscore prefix invasion
Prepending irq-unsafe vtime APIs with underscores was actually
a bad idea as the result is a big mess in the API namespace that

are always called from irq safe callers except kvm. Just
provide a vtime_account_system_irqsafe() for this specific
case so that we can remove the underscore prefix on other

8823c079ba vfs: Add setns support for the mount namespace
setns support for the mount namespace is a little tricky as an
arbitrary decision must be made about what to set fs->root and
fs->pwd to, as there is no expectation of a relationship between
the two mount namespaces.  Therefore I arbitrarily find the root
mount point, and follow every mount on top of it to find the top
of the mount stack.  Then I set fs->root and fs->pwd to that
location.  The topmost root of the mount stack seems like a
reasonable place to be.

Bind mount support for the mount namespace inodes has the
possibility of creating circular dependencies between mount
namespaces.  Circular dependencies can result in loops that
prevent mount namespaces from every being freed.  I avoid
creating those circular dependencies by adding a sequence number
to the mount namespace and require all bind mounts be of a
younger mount namespace into an older mount namespace.

Add a helper function proc_ns_inode so it is possible to
detect when we are attempting to bind mound a namespace inode.

0a01f2cc39 pidns: Make the pidns proc mount/umount logic obvious.
Track the number of pids in the proc hash table.  When the number of
pids goes to 0 schedule work to unmount the kernel mount of proc.

Move the mount of proc into alloc_pid when we allocate the pid for
init.

Remove the surprising calls of pid_ns_release proc in fork and
proc_flush_task.  Those code paths really shouldn't know about proc
namespace implementation details and people have demonstrated several
times that finding and understanding those code paths is difficult and
non-obvious.

Because of the call path detach pid is alwasy called with the
rtnl_lock held free_pid is not allowed to sleep, so the work to
unmounting proc is moved to a work queue.  This has the side benefit
of not blocking the entire world waiting for the unnecessary
rcu_barrier in deactivate_locked_super.

In the process of making the code clear and obvious this fixes a bug
reported by Gao feng <gaofeng@cn.fujitsu.com> where we would leak a
mount of proc during clone(CLONE_NEWPID|CLONE_NEWNET) if copy_pid_ns
succeeded and copy_net_ns failed.

These new attributes will enable the user space to implement
custom charging algorithms based on platform state.

74876a98a8 printk: Wake up klogd using irq_work
klogd is woken up asynchronously from the tick in order
to do it safely.

However if printk is called when the tick is stopped, the reader
won't be woken up until the next interrupt, which might not fire
for a while. As a result, the user may miss some message.

To fix this, lets implement the printk tick using a lazy irq work.
This subsystem takes care of the timer tick state and can
fix up accordingly.

bc6679aef6 irq_work: Make self-IPIs optable
On irq work initialization, let the user choose to define it
as "lazy" or not. "Lazy" means that we don't want to send
an IPI (provided the arch can anyway) when we enqueue this
work but we rather prefer to wait for the next timer tick
to execute our work if possible.

This is going to be a benefit for non-urgent enqueuers
(like printk in the future) that may prefer not to raise
an IPI storm in case of frequent enqueuing on short periods
of time.

00b4295910 irq_work: Don't stop the tick with pending works
Don't stop the tick if we have pending irq works on the
queue, otherwise if the arch can't raise self-IPIs, we may not
find an opportunity to execute the pending works for a while.

33a5f6261a nohz: Add API to check tick state
We need some quick way to check if the CPU has stopped
its tick. This will be useful to implement the printk tick
using the irq work subsystem.

c22618a11d drivers/of: Constify device_node->name and ->path_component_name
Neither of these should ever be changed once set. Make them const and
fix up the users that try to modify it in-place. In one case
kmalloc+memcpy is replaced with kstrdup() to avoid modifying the string.

Build tested with defconfigs on ARM, PowerPC, Sparc, MIPS, x86 among
others.
