delayed_work->timer.function is currently initialized during
queue_delayed_work_on(). Export delayed_work_timer_fn() and set
delayed_work timer function during delayed_work initialization
together with other fields.
This ensures the timer function is always valid on an initialized

To detect delayed_work users which diddle with the internal timer,

Queueing operations use WORK_STRUCT_PENDING_BIT to synchronize access
to the target work item. They first try to claim the bit and proceed
with queueing only after that succeeds and there's a window between
PENDING being set and the actual queueing where the task can be
interrupted or preempted.
There's also a similar window in process_one_work() when clearing
PENDING. A work item is dequeued, gcwq->lock is released and then
PENDING is cleared and the worker might get interrupted or preempted
between releasing gcwq->lock and clearing PENDING.
cancel[_delayed]_work_sync() tries to claim or steal PENDING. The
function assumes that a work item with PENDING is either queued or in
the process of being [de]queued. In the latter case, it busy-loops
until either the work item loses PENDING or is queued. If canceling
coincides with the above described interrupts or preemptions, the
canceling task will busy-loop while the queueing or executing task is
preempted.
This patch keeps irq disabled across claiming PENDING and actual
queueing and moves PENDING clearing in process_one_work() inside
gcwq->lock so that busy looping from PENDING && !queued doesn't wait
for interrupted/preempted tasks. Note that, in process_one_work(),
setting last CPU and clearing PENDING got merged into single
operation.
This removes possible long busy-loops and will allow using
try_to_grab_pending() from bh and irq contexts.
v2: __queue_work() was testing preempt_count() to ensure that the
caller has disabled preemption. This triggers spuriously if
!CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT. Use preemptible() instead. Reported by
Fengguang Wu.
v3: Disable irq instead of preemption. IRQ will be disabled while
grabbing gcwq->lock later anyway and this allows using
try_to_grab_pending() from bh and irq contexts.

WORK_STRUCT_PENDING is used to claim ownership of a work item and
process_one_work() releases it before starting execution. When
someone else grabs PENDING, all pre-release updates to the work item
should be visible and all updates made by the new owner should happen
afterwards.
Grabbing PENDING uses test_and_set_bit() and thus has a full barrier;
however, clearing doesn't have a matching wmb. Given the preceding
spin_unlock and use of clear_bit, I don't believe this can be a
problem on an actual machine and there hasn't been any related report
but it still is theretically possible for clear_pending to permeate
upwards and happen before work->entry update.
Add an explicit smp_wmb() before work_clear_pending().

This is needed to allow network softirq packet processing to make use of
PF_MEMALLOC.
Currently softirq context cannot use PF_MEMALLOC due to it not being
associated with a task, and therefore not having task flags to fiddle with
- thus the gfp to alloc flag mapping ignores the task flags when in
interrupts (hard or soft) context.
Allowing softirqs to make use of PF_MEMALLOC therefore requires some
trickery. This patch borrows the task flags from whatever process happens
to be preempted by the softirq. It then modifies the gfp to alloc flags
mapping to not exclude task flags in softirq context, and modify the
softirq code to save, clear and restore the PF_MEMALLOC flag.
The save and clear, ensures the preempted task's PF_MEMALLOC flag doesn't
leak into the softirq. The restore ensures a softirq's PF_MEMALLOC flag
cannot leak back into the preempted process. This should be safe due to
the following reasons
Softirqs can run on multiple CPUs sure but the same task should not be
executing the same softirq code. Neither should the softirq
handler be preempted by any other softirq handler so the flags
should not leak to an unrelated softirq.
Softirqs re-enable hardware interrupts in __do_softirq() so can be
preempted by hardware interrupts so PF_MEMALLOC is inherited
by the hard IRQ. However, this is similar to a process in
reclaim being preempted by a hardirq. While PF_MEMALLOC is
set, gfp_to_alloc_flags() distinguishes between hard and
soft irqs and avoids giving a hardirq the ALLOC_NO_WATERMARKS
flag.
If the softirq is deferred to ksoftirq then its flags may be used
instead of a normal tasks but as the softirq cannot be preempted,
the PF_MEMALLOC flag does not leak to other code by accident.

When hotadd_new_pgdat() is called to create new pgdat for a new node, a
fallback zonelist should be created for the new node. There's code to try
to achieve that in hotadd_new_pgdat() as below:
/*
* The node we allocated has no zone fallback lists. For avoiding
* to access not-initialized zonelist, build here.
*/
mutex_lock(&zonelists_mutex);
build_all_zonelists(pgdat, NULL);
mutex_unlock(&zonelists_mutex);
But it doesn't work as expected. When hotadd_new_pgdat() is called, the
new node is still in offline state because node_set_online(nid) hasn't
been called yet. And build_all_zonelists() only builds zonelists for
online nodes as:
for_each_online_node(nid) {
pg_data_t *pgdat = NODE_DATA(nid);
build_zonelists(pgdat);
build_zonelist_cache(pgdat);
}
Though we hope to create zonelist for the new pgdat, but it doesn't. So
add a new parameter "pgdat" the build_all_zonelists() to build pgdat for
the new pgdat too.

For performance reasons, we maintain ktime_t based duplicates of
wall_to_monotonic (offs_real) and total_sleep_time (offs_boot).
Since large problems could occur (such as the resume regression
on 3.5-rc7, or the leapsecond hrtimer issue) if these value
pairs were to be inconsistently updated, this patch this cleans
up how we modify these value pairs to ensure we are always
consistent.
As a side-effect this is also more efficient as we only
caulculate the duplicate values when they are changed,
rather then every update_wall_time call.
This also provides WARN_ONs to detect if future changes break
the invariants.

A few events are interesting not only for a current task.
For example, sched_stat_* events are interesting for a task
which wakes up. For this reason, it will be good if such
events will be delivered to a target task too.
Now a target task can be set by using __perf_task().
The original idea and a draft patch belongs to Peter Zijlstra.
I need these events for profiling sleep times. sched_switch is used for
getting callchains and sched_stat_* is used for getting time periods.
These events are combined in user space, then it can be analyzed by
perf tools.

Introduce function trace based kprobes optimization.
With using ftrace optimization, kprobes on the mcount calling
address, use ftrace's mcount call instead of breakpoint.
Furthermore, this optimization works with preemptive kernel
not like as current jump-based optimization. Of cource,
this feature works only if the probe is on mcount call.
Only if kprobe.break_handler is set, that probe is not
optimized with ftrace (nor put on ftrace). The reason why this
limitation comes is that this break_handler may be used only
from jprobes which changes ip address (for fetching the function
arguments), but function tracer ignores modified ip address.
Changes in v2:
- Fix ftrace_ops registering right after setting its filter.
- Unregister ftrace_ops if there is no kprobe using.
- Remove notrace dependency from __kprobes macro.

As more users of the function tracer utility are being added, they do
not always add the necessary recursion protection. To protect from
function recursion due to tracing, if the callback ftrace_ops does not
specifically specify that it protects against recursion (by setting
the FTRACE_OPS_FL_RECURSION_SAFE flag), the list operation will be
called by the mcount trampoline which adds recursion protection.
If the flag is set, then the function will be called directly with no
extra protection.
Note, the list operation is called if more than one function callback
is registered, or if the arch does not support all of the function
tracer features.

When the requested range is outside of the root range the logic in
__reserve_region_with_split will cause an infinite recursion which will
overflow the stack as seen in the warning bellow.
This particular stack overflow was caused by requesting the
(100000000-107ffffff) range while the root range was (0-ffffffff). In
this case __request_resource would return the whole root range as
conflict range (i.e. 0-ffffffff). Then, the logic in
__reserve_region_with_split would continue the recursion requesting the
new range as (conflict->end+1, end) which incidentally in this case
equals the originally requested range.
This patch aborts looking for an usable range when the request does not
intersect with the root range. When the request partially overlaps with
the root range, it ajust the request to fall in the root range and then
continues with the new request.
When the request is modified or aborted errors and a stack trace are
logged to allow catching the errors in the upper layers.

register_sysctl_table() is a strange function, as it makes internal
allocations (a header) to register a sysctl_table. This header is a
handle to the table that is created, and can be used to unregister the
table. But if the table is permanent and never unregistered, the header
acts the same as a static variable.
Unfortunately, this allocation of memory that is never expected to be
freed fools kmemleak in thinking that we have leaked memory. For those
sysctl tables that are never unregistered, and have no pointer referencing
them, kmemleak will think that these are memory leaks:

The sysctl_base_table used by sysctl itself is one such instance that
registers the table to never be unregistered.
Use kmemleak_not_leak() to suppress the kmemleak false positive.

The last line of vmcoreinfo note does not end with \n. Parsing all the
lines in note becomes easier if all lines end with \n instead of trying to
special case the last line.
I know at least one tool, vmcore-dmesg in kexec-tools tree which made the
assumption that all lines end with \n. I think it is a good idea to fix
it.

The function dup_task() may fail at the following function calls in the
following order.
0) alloc_task_struct_node()
1) alloc_thread_info_node()
2) arch_dup_task_struct()
Error by 0) is not a matter, it can just return. But error by 1) requires
releasing task_struct allocated by 0) before it returns. Likewise, error
by 2) requires releasing task_struct and thread_info allocated by 0) and
1).
The existing error handling calls free_task_struct() and
free_thread_info() which do not only release task_struct and thread_info,
but also call architecture specific arch_release_task_struct() and
arch_release_thread_info().
The problem is that task_struct and thread_info are not fully initialized
yet at this point, but arch_release_task_struct() and
arch_release_thread_info() are called with them.
For example, x86 defines its own arch_release_task_struct() that releases
a task_xstate. If alloc_thread_info_node() fails in dup_task(),
arch_release_task_struct() is called with task_struct which is just
allocated and filled with garbage in this error handling.
This actually happened with tools/testing/fault-injection/failcmd.sh
# env FAILCMD_TYPE=fail_page_alloc \
./tools/testing/fault-injection/failcmd.sh --times=100 \
--min-order=0 --ignore-gfp-wait=0 \
-- make -C tools/testing/selftests/ run_tests
In order to fix this issue, make free_{task_struct,thread_info}() not to
call arch_release_{task_struct,thread_info}() and call
arch_release_{task_struct,thread_info}() implicitly where needed.
Default arch_release_task_struct() and arch_release_thread_info() are
defined as empty by default. So this change only affects the
architectures which implement their own arch_release_task_struct() or
arch_release_thread_info() as listed below.
arch_release_task_struct(): x86, sh
arch_release_thread_info(): mn10300, tile

The system deadlocks (at least since 2.6.10) when
call_usermodehelper(UMH_WAIT_EXEC) request triggers
call_usermodehelper(UMH_WAIT_PROC) request.
This is because "khelper thread is waiting for the worker thread at
wait_for_completion() in do_fork() since the worker thread was created
with CLONE_VFORK flag" and "the worker thread cannot call complete()
because do_execve() is blocked at UMH_WAIT_PROC request" and "the khelper
thread cannot start processing UMH_WAIT_PROC request because the khelper
thread is waiting for the worker thread at wait_for_completion() in
do_fork()".
The easiest example to observe this deadlock is to use a corrupted
/sbin/hotplug binary (like shown below).
# : > /tmp/dummy
# chmod 755 /tmp/dummy
# echo /tmp/dummy > /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug
# modprobe whatever
call_usermodehelper("/tmp/dummy", UMH_WAIT_EXEC) is called from
kobject_uevent_env() in lib/kobject_uevent.c upon loading/unloading a
module. do_execve("/tmp/dummy") triggers a call to
request_module("binfmt-0000") from search_binary_handler() which in turn
calls call_usermodehelper(UMH_WAIT_PROC).
In order to avoid deadlock, as a for-now and easy-to-backport solution, do
not try to call wait_for_completion() in call_usermodehelper_exec() if the
worker thread was created by khelper thread with CLONE_VFORK flag. Future
and fundamental solution might be replacing singleton khelper thread with
some workqueue so that recursive calls up to max_active dependency loop
can be handled without deadlock.

The current form of a KERN_<LEVEL> is "<.>".
Add printk_get_level and printk_skip_level functions to handle these
formats.
These functions centralize tests of KERN_<LEVEL> so a future modification
can change the KERN_<LEVEL> style and shorten the number of bytes consumed
by these headers.

On the suspend/resume path the boot CPU does not go though an
offline->online transition. This breaks the NMI detector post-resume
since it depends on PMU state that is lost when the system gets
suspended.
Fix this by forcing a CPU offline->online transition for the lockup
detector on the boot CPU during resume.
To provide more context, we enable NMI watchdog on Chrome OS. We have
seen several reports of systems freezing up completely which indicated
that the NMI watchdog was not firing for some reason.
Debugging further, we found a simple way of repro'ing system freezes --
issuing the command 'tasket 1 sh -c "echo nmilockup > /proc/breakme"'
after the system has been suspended/resumed one or more times.
With this patch in place, the system freeze result in panics, as
expected.
These panics provide a nice stack trace for us to debug the actual issue
causing the freeze.
