9ea71503a8 futex: Fix regression with read only mappings
commit 7485d0d375 (futexes: Remove rw
parameter from get_futex_key()) in 2.6.33 fixed two problems:  First, It
prevented a loop when encountering a ZERO_PAGE. Second, it fixed RW
MAP_PRIVATE futex operations by forcing the COW to occur by
unconditionally performing a write access get_user_pages_fast() to get
the page.  The commit also introduced a user-mode regression in that it
broke futex operations on read-only memory maps.  For example, this
breaks workloads that have one or more reader processes doing a
FUTEX_WAIT on a futex within a read only shared file mapping, and a
writer processes that has a writable mapping issuing the FUTEX_WAKE.

This fixes the regression for valid futex operations on RO mappings by
trying a RO get_user_pages_fast() when the RW get_user_pages_fast()
fails. This change makes it necessary to also check for invalid use
cases, such as anonymous RO mappings (which can never change) and the
ZERO_PAGE which the commit referenced above was written to address.

This patch does restore the original behavior with RO MAP_PRIVATE
mappings, which have inherent user-mode usage problems and don't really
make sense.  With this patch performing a FUTEX_WAIT within a RO
MAP_PRIVATE mapping will be successfully woken provided another process
updates the region of the underlying mapped file.  However, the mmap()
man page states that for a MAP_PRIVATE mapping:

  It is unspecified whether changes made to the file after
  the mmap() call are visible in the mapped region.

So user-mode users attempting to use futex operations on RO MAP_PRIVATE
mappings are depending on unspecified behavior.  Additionally a
RO MAP_PRIVATE mapping could fail to wake up in the following case.

  Thread-A: call futex(FUTEX_WAIT, memory-region-A).
            get_futex_key() return inode based key.
            sleep on the key
  Thread-B: call mprotect(PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, memory-region-A)
  Thread-B: write memory-region-A.
            COW happen. This process's memory-region-A become related
            to new COWed private (ie PageAnon=1) page.
  Thread-B: call futex(FUETX_WAKE, memory-region-A).
            get_futex_key() return mm based key.
            IOW, we fail to wake up Thread-A.

Once again doing something like this is just silly and users who do
something like this get what they deserve.

While RO MAP_PRIVATE mappings are nonsensical, checking for a private
mapping requires walking the vmas and was deemed too costly to avoid a
userspace hang.

This Patch is based on Peter Zijlstra's initial patch with modifications to
only allow RO mappings for futex operations that need VERIFY_READ access.

2efaca927f mm/futex: fix futex writes on archs with SW tracking of dirty & young
I haven't reproduced it myself but the fail scenario is that on such
machines (notably ARM and some embedded powerpc), if you manage to hit
that futex path on a writable page whose dirty bit has gone from the PTE,
you'll livelock inside the kernel from what I can tell.

It will go in a loop of trying the atomic access, failing, trying gup to
"fix it up", getting succcess from gup, go back to the atomic access,
failing again because dirty wasn't fixed etc...

So I think you essentially hang in the kernel.

The scenario is probably rare'ish because affected architecture are
embedded and tend to not swap much (if at all) so we probably rarely hit
the case where dirty is missing or young is missing, but I think Shan has
a piece of SW that can reliably reproduce it using a shared writable
mapping & fork or something like that.

On archs who use SW tracking of dirty & young, a page without dirty is
effectively mapped read-only and a page without young unaccessible in the
PTE.

Additionally, some architectures might lazily flush the TLB when relaxing
write protection (by doing only a local flush), and expect a fault to
invalidate the stale entry if it's still present on another processor.

The futex code assumes that if the "in_atomic()" access -EFAULT's, it can
"fix it up" by causing get_user_pages() which would then be equivalent to
taking the fault.

However that isn't the case.  get_user_pages() will not call
handle_mm_fault() in the case where the PTE seems to have the right
permissions, regardless of the dirty and young state.  It will eventually
update those bits ...  in the struct page, but not in the PTE.

Additionally, it will not handle the lazy TLB flushing that can be
required by some architectures in the fault case.

Basically, gup is the wrong interface for the job.  The patch provides a
more appropriate one which boils down to just calling handle_mm_fault()
since what we are trying to do is simulate a real page fault.

The futex code currently attempts to write to user memory within a
pagefault disabled section, and if that fails, tries to fix it up using
get_user_pages().

This doesn't work on archs where the dirty and young bits are maintained
by software, since they will gate access permission in the TLB, and will
not be updated by gup().

In addition, there's an expectation on some archs that a spurious write
fault triggers a local TLB flush, and that is missing from the picture as
well.

I decided that adding those "features" to gup() would be too much for this
already too complex function, and instead added a new simpler
fixup_user_fault() which is essentially a wrapper around handle_mm_fault()
which the futex code can call.

88bfa32479 module: add /sys/module/<name>/uevent files
Userspace wants to manage module parameters with udev rules.
This currently only works for loaded modules, but not for
built-in ones.

To allow access to the built-in modules we need to
re-trigger all module load events that happened before any
userspace was running. We already do the same thing for all
devices, subsystems(buses) and drivers.

This adds the currently missing /sys/module/<name>/uevent files
to all module entries.

2bd2d6f2dc sched: Replace use of entity_key()
"entity_key()" is only used in "__enqueue_entity()" and
its only function is to subtract a tasks vruntime by
its groups minvruntime.
Before this patch a rbtree enqueue-decision is done by
comparing two tasks in the style:

	"if (entity_key(cfs_rq, se) < entity_key(cfs_rq, entry))"

which would be

	"if (se->vruntime-cfs_rq->min_vruntime < entry->vruntime-cfs_rq->min_vruntime)"

or (if reducing cfs_rq->min_vruntime out)

	"if (se->vruntime < entry->vruntime)"

which is

	"if (entity_before(se, entry))"

So we do not need "entity_key()".
If "entity_before()" is inline we will also save one subtraction (only one,
because "entity_key(cfs_rq, se)"  was cached in "key")

acb5a9ba3b sched: Separate group-scheduling code more clearly
Clean up cfs/rt runqueue initialization by moving group scheduling
related code into the corresponding functions.

Also, keep group scheduling as an add-on, so that things are only done
additionally, i. e. remove the init_*_rq() calls from init_tg_*_entry().
(This removes a redundant initalization during sched_init()).

In case of group scheduling rt_rq->highest_prio.curr is now initialized
twice, but adding another #ifdef seems not worth it.

99bc52429f sched: Do not attempt to destroy uninitialized rt_bandwidth
If a task group is to be created and alloc_fair_sched_group() fails,
then the rt_bandwidth of the corresponding task group is not yet
initialized. The caller, sched_create_group(), starts a clean up
procedure which calls free_rt_sched_group() which unconditionally
destroys the not yet initialized rt_bandwidth.

This crashes or hangs the system in lock_hrtimer_base(): UP systems
dereference a NULL pointer, while SMP systems loop endlessly on a
condition that cannot become true.

This patch simply avoids the destruction of rt_bandwidth when the
initialization code path was not reached.

(This was discovered by accident with a custom kernel modification.)

Use for_each_leaf_cfs_rq() instead of list_for_each_entry_rcu(), this
achieves that load_balance_fair() only iterates those task_groups that
actually have tasks on busiest, and that we iterate bottom-up, trying to
move light groups before the heavier ones.

No idea if it will actually work out to be beneficial in practice, does
anybody have a cgroup workload that might show a difference one way or
the other?

9bbd737436 sched: update correct entity's runtime in check_preempt_wakeup()
While looking at check_preempt_wakeup() I realized that we are
potentially updating the wrong entity in the fair-group scheduling
case. In this case the current task's cfs_rq may not be the same as
the one used for the comparison between the waking task and the
existing task's vruntime.

This potentially results in us using a stale vruntime in the
pre-emption decision, providing a small false preference for the
previous task. The effects of this are bounded since we always
perform a hierarchal update on the tick.

8a35241803 ptrace: fix ptrace_signal() && STOP_DEQUEUED interaction
Simple test-case,

	int main(void)
	{
		int pid, status;

		pid = fork();
		if (!pid) {
			pause();
			assert(0);
			return 0x23;
		}

		assert(ptrace(PTRACE_ATTACH, pid, 0,0) == 0);
		assert(wait(&status) == pid);
		assert(WIFSTOPPED(status) && WSTOPSIG(status) == SIGSTOP);

		kill(pid, SIGCONT);	// <--- also clears STOP_DEQUEUD

		assert(ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, pid, 0,0) == 0);
		assert(wait(&status) == pid);
		assert(WIFSTOPPED(status) && WSTOPSIG(status) == SIGCONT);

		assert(ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, pid, 0, SIGSTOP) == 0);
		assert(wait(&status) == pid);
		assert(WIFSTOPPED(status) && WSTOPSIG(status) == SIGSTOP);

		kill(pid, SIGKILL);
		return 0;
	}

Without the patch it hangs. After the patch SIGSTOP "injected" by the
tracer is not ignored and stops the tracee.

Note also that if this test-case uses, say, SIGWINCH instead of SIGCONT,
everything works without the patch. This can't be right, and this is
confusing.

The problem is that SIGSTOP (or any other sig_kernel_stop() signal) has
no effect without JOBCTL_STOP_DEQUEUED. This means it is simply ignored
after PTRACE_CONT unless JOBCTL_STOP_DEQUEUED was set "by accident", say
it wasn't cleared after initial SIGSTOP sent by PTRACE_ATTACH.

At first glance we could change ptrace_signal() to add STOP_DEQUEUED
after return from ptrace_stop(), but this is not right in case when the
tracer does not change the reported SIGSTOP and SIGCONT comes in between.
This is even more wrong with PT_SEIZED, SIGCONT adds JOBCTL_TRAP_NOTIFY
which will be "lost" during the TRAP_STOP | TRAP_NOTIFY report.

So lets add STOP_DEQUEUED _before_ we report the signal. It has no effect
unless sig_kernel_stop() == T after the tracer resumes us, and in the
latter case the pending STOP_DEQUEUED means no SIGCONT in between, we
should stop.

Note also that if SIGCONT was sent, PT_SEIZED tracee will correctly
report PTRACE_EVENT_STOP/SIGTRAP and thus the tracer can notice the fact
SIGSTOP was cancelled.

Also, move the current->ptrace check from ptrace_signal() to its caller,
get_signal_to_deliver(), this looks more natural.

a841796f11 signal: align __lock_task_sighand() irq disabling and RCU
The __lock_task_sighand() function calls rcu_read_lock() with interrupts
and preemption enabled, but later calls rcu_read_unlock() with interrupts
disabled.  It is therefore possible that this RCU read-side critical
section will be preempted and later RCU priority boosted, which means that
rcu_read_unlock() will call rt_mutex_unlock() in order to deboost itself, but
with interrupts disabled. This results in lockdep splats, so this commit
nests the RCU read-side critical section within the interrupt-disabled
region of code.  This prevents the RCU read-side critical section from
being preempted, and thus prevents the attempt to deboost with interrupts
disabled.

It is quite possible that a better long-term fix is to make rt_mutex_unlock()
disable irqs when acquiring the rt_mutex structure's ->wait_lock.

ec433f0c51 softirq,rcu: Inform RCU of irq_exit() activity
The rcu_read_unlock_special() function relies on in_irq() to exclude
scheduler activity from interrupt level.  This fails because exit_irq()
can invoke the scheduler after clearing the preempt_count() bits that
in_irq() uses to determine that it is at interrupt level.  This situation
can result in failures as follows:

 $task			IRQ		SoftIRQ

 rcu_read_lock()

 /* do stuff */

 <preempt> |= UNLOCK_BLOCKED

 rcu_read_unlock()
   --t->rcu_read_lock_nesting

			irq_enter();
			/* do stuff, don't use RCU */
			irq_exit();
			  sub_preempt_count(IRQ_EXIT_OFFSET);
			  invoke_softirq()

					ttwu();
					  spin_lock_irq(&pi->lock)
					  rcu_read_lock();
					  /* do stuff */
					  rcu_read_unlock();
					    rcu_read_unlock_special()
					      rcu_report_exp_rnp()
					        ttwu()
					          spin_lock_irq(&pi->lock) /* deadlock */

   rcu_read_unlock_special(t);

Ed can simply trigger this 'easy' because invoke_softirq() immediately
does a ttwu() of ksoftirqd/# instead of doing the in-place softirq stuff
first, but even without that the above happens.

Cure this by also excluding softirqs from the
rcu_read_unlock_special() handler and ensuring the force_irqthreads
ksoftirqd/# wakeup is done from full softirq context.

[ Alternatively, delaying the ->rcu_read_lock_nesting decrement
  until after the special handling would make the thing more robust
  in the face of interrupts as well.  And there is a separate patch
  for that. ]

c5d753a55a sched: Add irq_{enter,exit}() to scheduler_ipi()
Ensure scheduler_ipi() calls irq_{enter,exit} when it does some actual
work. Traditionally we never did any actual work from the resched IPI
and all magic happened in the return from interrupt path.

Now that we do do some work, we need to ensure irq_{enter,exit} are
called so that we don't confuse things.

This affects things like timekeeping, NO_HZ and RCU, basically
everything with a hook in irq_enter/exit.

Explicit examples of things going wrong are:

  sched_clock_cpu() -- has a callback when leaving NO_HZ state to take
                    a new reading from GTOD and TSC. Without this
                    callback, time is stuck in the past.

  RCU -- needs in_irq() to work in order to avoid some nasty deadlocks

10f39bb1b2 rcu: protect __rcu_read_unlock() against scheduler-using irq handlers
The addition of RCU read-side critical sections within runqueue and
priority-inheritance lock critical sections introduced some deadlock
cycles, for example, involving interrupts from __rcu_read_unlock()
where the interrupt handlers call wake_up().  This situation can cause
the instance of __rcu_read_unlock() invoked from interrupt to do some
of the processing that would otherwise have been carried out by the
task-level instance of __rcu_read_unlock().  When the interrupt-level
instance of __rcu_read_unlock() is called with a scheduler lock held
from interrupt-entry/exit situations where in_irq() returns false,
deadlock can result.

This commit resolves these deadlocks by using negative values of
the per-task ->rcu_read_lock_nesting counter to indicate that an
instance of __rcu_read_unlock() is in flight, which in turn prevents
instances from interrupt handlers from doing any special processing.
This patch is inspired by Steven Rostedt's earlier patch that similarly
made __rcu_read_unlock() guard against interrupt-mediated recursion
(see https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/7/15/326), but this commit refines
Steven's approach to avoid the need for preemption disabling on the
__rcu_read_unlock() fastpath and to also avoid the need for manipulating
a separate per-CPU variable.

This patch avoids need for preempt_disable() by instead using negative
values of the per-task ->rcu_read_lock_nesting counter.  Note that nested
rcu_read_lock()/rcu_read_unlock() pairs are still permitted, but they will
never see ->rcu_read_lock_nesting go to zero, and will therefore never
invoke rcu_read_unlock_special(), thus preventing them from seeing the
RCU_READ_UNLOCK_BLOCKED bit should it be set in ->rcu_read_unlock_special.
This patch also adds a check for ->rcu_read_unlock_special being negative
in rcu_check_callbacks(), thus preventing the RCU_READ_UNLOCK_NEED_QS
bit from being set should a scheduling-clock interrupt occur while
__rcu_read_unlock() is exiting from an outermost RCU read-side critical
section.

Of course, __rcu_read_unlock() can be preempted during the time that
->rcu_read_lock_nesting is negative.  This could result in the setting
of the RCU_READ_UNLOCK_BLOCKED bit after __rcu_read_unlock() checks it,
and would also result it this task being queued on the corresponding
rcu_node structure's blkd_tasks list.  Therefore, some later RCU read-side
critical section would enter rcu_read_unlock_special() to clean up --
which could result in deadlock if that critical section happened to be in
the scheduler where the runqueue or priority-inheritance locks were held.

This situation is dealt with by making rcu_preempt_note_context_switch()
check for negative ->rcu_read_lock_nesting, thus refraining from
queuing the task (and from setting RCU_READ_UNLOCK_BLOCKED) if we are
already exiting from the outermost RCU read-side critical section (in
other words, we really are no longer actually in that RCU read-side
critical section).  In addition, rcu_preempt_note_context_switch()
invokes rcu_read_unlock_special() to carry out the cleanup in this case,
which clears out the ->rcu_read_unlock_special bits and dequeues the task
(if necessary), in turn avoiding needless delay of the current RCU grace
period and needless RCU priority boosting.

It is still illegal to call rcu_read_unlock() while holding a scheduler
lock if the prior RCU read-side critical section has ever had either
preemption or irqs enabled.  However, the common use case is legal,
namely where then entire RCU read-side critical section executes with
irqs disabled, for example, when the scheduler lock is held across the
entire lifetime of the RCU read-side critical section.

e3589f6c81 sched: Allow for overlapping sched_domain spans
Allow for sched_domain spans that overlap by giving such domains their
own sched_group list instead of sharing the sched_groups amongst
each-other.

This is needed for machines with more than 16 nodes, because
sched_domain_node_span() will generate a node mask from the
16 nearest nodes without regard if these masks have any overlap.

Currently sched_domains have a sched_group that maps to their child
sched_domain span, and since there is no overlap we share the
sched_group between the sched_domains of the various CPUs. If however
there is overlap, we would need to link the sched_group list in
different ways for each cpu, and hence sharing isn't possible.

In order to solve this, allocate private sched_groups for each CPU's
sched_domain but have the sched_groups share a sched_group_power
structure such that we can uniquely track the power.

7765be2fec rcu: Fix RCU_BOOST race handling current->rcu_read_unlock_special
The RCU_BOOST commits for TREE_PREEMPT_RCU introduced an other-task
write to a new RCU_READ_UNLOCK_BOOSTED bit in the task_struct structure's
->rcu_read_unlock_special field, but, as noted by Steven Rostedt, without
correctly synchronizing all accesses to ->rcu_read_unlock_special.
This could result in bits in ->rcu_read_unlock_special being spuriously
set and cleared due to conflicting accesses, which in turn could result
in deadlocks between the rcu_node structure's ->lock and the scheduler's
rq and pi locks.  These deadlocks would result from RCU incorrectly
believing that the just-ended RCU read-side critical section had been
preempted and/or boosted.  If that RCU read-side critical section was
executed with either rq or pi locks held, RCU's ensuing (incorrect)
calls to the scheduler would cause the scheduler to attempt to once
again acquire the rq and pi locks, resulting in deadlock.  More complex
deadlock cycles are also possible, involving multiple rq and pi locks
as well as locks from multiple rcu_node structures.

This commit fixes synchronization by creating ->rcu_boosted field in
task_struct that is accessed and modified only when holding the ->lock
in the rcu_node structure on which the task is queued (on that rcu_node
structure's ->blkd_tasks list).  This results in tasks accessing only
their own current->rcu_read_unlock_special fields, making unsynchronized
access once again legal, and keeping the rcu_read_unlock() fastpath free
of atomic instructions and memory barriers.

The reason that the rcu_read_unlock() fastpath does not need to access
the new current->rcu_boosted field is that this new field cannot
be non-zero unless the RCU_READ_UNLOCK_BLOCKED bit is set in the
current->rcu_read_unlock_special field.  Therefore, rcu_read_unlock()
need only test current->rcu_read_unlock_special: if that is zero, then
current->rcu_boosted must also be zero.

This bug does not affect TINY_PREEMPT_RCU because this implementation
of RCU accesses current->rcu_read_unlock_special with irqs disabled,
thus preventing races on the !SMP systems that TINY_PREEMPT_RCU runs on.

f701e5b73a connector: add an event for monitoring process tracers
This change adds a procfs connector event, which is emitted on every
successful process tracer attach or detach.

If some process connects to other one, kernelspace connector reports
process id and thread group id of both these involved processes. On
disconnection null process id is returned.

Such an event allows to create a simple automated userspace mechanism
to be aware about processes connecting to others, therefore predefined
process policies can be applied to them if needed.

Note, a detach signal is emitted only in case, if a tracer process
explicitly executes PTRACE_DETACH request. In other cases like tracee
or tracer exit detach event from proc connector is not reported.

dcace06cc2 ptrace: mv send-SIGSTOP from do_fork() to ptrace_init_task()
If the new child is traced, do_fork() adds the pending SIGSTOP.
It assumes that either it is traced because of auto-attach or the
tracer attached later, in both cases sigaddset/set_thread_flag is
correct even if SIGSTOP is already pending.

Now that we have PTRACE_SEIZE this is no longer right in the latter
case. If the tracer does PTRACE_SEIZE after copy_process() makes the
child visible the queued SIGSTOP is wrong.

We could check PT_SEIZED bit and change ptrace_attach() to set both
PT_PTRACED and PT_SEIZED bits simultaneously but see the next patch,
we need to know whether this child was auto-attached or not anyway.

So this patch simply moves this code to ptrace_init_task(), this
way we can never race with ptrace_attach().

3b5fe85252 PM / Suspend: Add .suspend_again() callback to suspend_ops
A system or a device may need to control suspend/wakeup events. It may
want to wakeup the system after a predefined amount of time or at a
predefined event decided while entering suspend for polling or delayed
work. Then, it may want to enter suspend again if its predefined wakeup
condition is the only wakeup reason and there is no outstanding events;
thus, it does not wakeup the userspace unnecessary or unnecessary
devices and keeps suspended as long as possible (saving the power).

Enabling a system to wakeup after a specified time can be easily
achieved by using RTC. However, to enter suspend again immediately
without invoking userland and unrelated devices, we need additional
features in the suspend framework.

Such need comes from:

 1. Monitoring a critical device status without interrupts that can
wakeup the system. (in-suspend polling)
 An example is ambient temperature monitoring that needs to shut down
the system or a specific device function if it is too hot or cold. The
temperature of a specific device may be needed to be monitored as well;
e.g., a charger monitors battery temperature in order to stop charging
if overheated.

 2. Execute critical "delayed work" at suspend.
 A driver or a system/board may have a delayed work (or any similar
things) that it wants to execute at the requested time.
 For example, some chargers want to check the battery voltage some
time (e.g., 30 seconds) after the battery is fully charged and the
charger has stopped. Then, the charger restarts charging if the voltage
has dropped more than a threshold, which is smaller than "restart-charger"
voltage, which is a threshold to restart charging regardless of the
time passed.

This patch allows to add "suspend_again" callback at struct
platform_suspend_ops and let the "suspend_again" callback return true if
the system is required to enter suspend again after the current instance
of wakeup. Device-wise suspend_again implemented at dev_pm_ops or
syscore is not done because: a) suspend_again feature is usually under
platform-wise decision and controls the behavior of the whole platform
and b) There are very limited devices related to the usage cases of
suspend_again; chargers and temperature sensors are mentioned so far.

With suspend_again callback registered at struct platform_suspend_ops
suspend_ops in kernel/power/suspend.c with suspend_set_ops by the
platform, the suspend framework tries to enter suspend again by
looping suspend_enter() if suspend_again has returned true and there has
been no errors in the suspending sequence or pending wakeups (by
pm_wakeup_pending).

Tested at Exynos4-NURI.

f7bc8b61f6 ftrace: Fix regression where ftrace breaks when modules are loaded
Enabling function tracer to trace all functions, then load a module and
then disable function tracing will cause ftrace to fail.

This can also happen by enabling function tracing on the command line:

  ftrace=function

and during boot up, modules are loaded, then you disable function tracing
with 'echo nop > current_tracer' you will trigger a bug in ftrace that
will shut itself down.

The reason is, the new ftrace code keeps ref counts of all ftrace_ops that
are registered for tracing. When one or more ftrace_ops are registered,
all the records that represent the functions that the ftrace_ops will
trace have a ref count incremented. If this ref count is not zero,
when the code modification runs, that function will be enabled for tracing.
If the ref count is zero, that function will be disabled from tracing.

To make sure the accounting was working, FTRACE_WARN_ON()s were added
to updating of the ref counts.

If the ref count hits its max (> 2^30 ftrace_ops added), or if
the ref count goes below zero, a FTRACE_WARN_ON() is triggered which
disables all modification of code.

Since it is common for ftrace_ops to trace all functions in the kernel,
instead of creating > 20,000 hash items for the ftrace_ops, the hash
count is just set to zero, and it represents that the ftrace_ops is
to trace all functions. This is where the issues arrise.

If you enable function tracing to trace all functions, and then add
a module, the modules function records do not get the ref count updated.
When the function tracer is disabled, all function records ref counts
are subtracted. Since the modules never had their ref counts incremented,
they go below zero and the FTRACE_WARN_ON() is triggered.

The solution to this is rather simple. When modules are loaded, and
their functions are added to the the ftrace pool, look to see if any
ftrace_ops are registered that trace all functions. And for those,
update the ref count for the module function records.

f912987097 perf, x86: P4 PMU - Introduce event alias feature
Instead of hw_nmi_watchdog_set_attr() weak function
and appropriate x86_pmu::hw_watchdog_set_attr() call
we introduce even alias mechanism which allow us
to drop this routines completely and isolate quirks
of Netburst architecture inside P4 PMU code only.

The main idea remains the same though -- to allow
nmi-watchdog and perf top run simultaneously.

Note the aliasing mechanism applies to generic
PERF_COUNT_HW_CPU_CYCLES event only because arbitrary
event (say passed as RAW initially) might have some
additional bits set inside ESCR register changing
the behaviour of event and we can't guarantee anymore
that alias event will give the same result.

P.S. Thanks a huge to Don and Steven for for testing
     and early review.

4a9bd3f134 tracing: Have dynamic size event stack traces
Currently the stack trace per event in ftace is only 8 frames.
This can be quite limiting and sometimes useless. Especially when
the "ignore frames" is wrong and we also use up stack frames for
the event processing itself.

Change this to be dynamic by adding a percpu buffer that we can
write a large stack frame into and then copy into the ring buffer.

For interrupts and NMIs that come in while another event is being
process, will only get to use the 8 frame stack. That should be enough
as the task that it interrupted will have the full stack frame anyway.

095c0aa83e sched: adjust scheduler cpu power for stolen time
This patch makes update_rq_clock() aware of steal time.
The mechanism of operation is not different from irq_time,
and follows the same principles. This lives in a CONFIG
option itself, and can be compiled out independently of
the rest of steal time reporting. The effect of disabling it
is that the scheduler will still report steal time (that cannot be
disabled), but won't use this information for cpu power adjustments.

Everytime update_rq_clock_task() is invoked, we query information
about how much time was stolen since last call, and feed it into
sched_rt_avg_update().

Although steal time reporting in account_process_tick() keeps
track of the last time we read the steal clock, in prev_steal_time,
this patch do it independently using another field,
prev_steal_time_rq. This is because otherwise, information about time
accounted in update_process_tick() would never reach us in update_rq_clock().

e6e6685acc KVM guest: Steal time accounting
This patch accounts steal time time in account_process_tick.
If one or more tick is considered stolen in the current
accounting cycle, user/system accounting is skipped. Idle is fine,
since the hypervisor does not report steal time if the guest
is halted.

Accounting steal time from the core scheduler give us the
advantage of direct acess to the runqueue data. In a later
opportunity, it can be used to tweak cpu power and make
the scheduler aware of the time it lost.

c9aaa8957f KVM: Steal time implementation
To implement steal time, we need the hypervisor to pass the guest
information about how much time was spent running other processes
outside the VM, while the vcpu had meaningful work to do - halt
time does not count.

This information is acquired through the run_delay field of
delayacct/schedstats infrastructure, that counts time spent in a
runqueue but not running.

Steal time is a per-cpu information, so the traditional MSR-based
infrastructure is used. A new msr, KVM_MSR_STEAL_TIME, holds the
memory area address containing information about steal time

This patch contains the hypervisor part of the steal time infrasructure,
and can be backported independently of the guest portion.

6331c28c96 ftrace: Fix dynamic selftest failure on some archs
Archs that do not implement CONFIG_HAVE_FUNCTION_TRACE_MCOUNT_TEST, will
fail the dynamic ftrace selftest.

The function tracer has a quick 'off' variable that will prevent
the call back functions from being called. This variable is called
function_trace_stop. In x86, this is implemented directly in the mcount
assembly, but for other archs, an intermediate function is used called
ftrace_test_stop_func().

In dynamic ftrace, the function pointer variable ftrace_trace_function is
used to update the caller code in the mcount caller. But for archs that
do not have CONFIG_HAVE_FUNCTION_TRACE_MCOUNT_TEST set, it only calls
ftrace_test_stop_func() instead, which in turn calls __ftrace_trace_function.

When more than one ftrace_ops is registered, the function it calls is
ftrace_ops_list_func(), which will iterate over all registered ftrace_ops
and call the callbacks that have their hash matching.

The issue happens when two ftrace_ops are registered for different functions
and one is then unregistered. The __ftrace_trace_function is then pointed
to the remaining ftrace_ops callback function directly. This mean it will
be called for all functions that were registered to trace by both ftrace_ops
that were registered.

This is not an issue for archs with CONFIG_HAVE_FUNCTION_TRACE_MCOUNT_TEST,
because the update of ftrace_trace_function doesn't happen until after all
functions have been updated, and then the mcount caller is updated. But
for those archs that do use the ftrace_test_stop_func(), the update is
immediate.

The dynamic selftest fails because it hits this situation, and the
ftrace_ops that it registers fails to only trace what it was suppose to
and instead traces all other functions.

The solution is to delay the setting of __ftrace_trace_function until
after all the functions have been updated according to the registered
ftrace_ops. Also, function_trace_stop is set during the update to prevent
function tracing from calling code that is caused by the function tracer
itself.

41fb61c2d0 ftrace: Balance records when updating the hash
Whenever the hash of the ftrace_ops is updated, the record counts
must be balance. This requires disabling the records that are set
in the original hash, and then enabling the records that are set
in the updated hash.

Moving the update into ftrace_hash_move() removes the bug where the
hash was updated but the records were not, which results in ftrace
triggering a warning and disabling itself because the ftrace_ops filter
is updated while the ftrace_ops was registered, and then the failure
happens when the ftrace_ops is unregistered.

The current code will not trigger this bug, but new code will.

b0d304172f rcu: Prevent RCU callbacks from executing before scheduler initialized
Under some rare but real combinations of configuration parameters, RCU
callbacks are posted during early boot that use kernel facilities that
are not yet initialized.  Therefore, when these callbacks are invoked,
hard hangs and crashes ensue.  This commit therefore prevents RCU
callbacks from being invoked until after the scheduler is fully up and
running, as in after multiple tasks have been spawned.

It might well turn out that a better approach is to identify the specific
RCU callbacks that are causing this problem, but that discussion will
wait until such time as someone really needs an RCU callback to be invoked
(as opposed to merely registered) during early boot.

fs_excl was introduced with the time sliced CFQ IO scheduler, to

That's over 1ms that interrupts are disabled on a Real-Time kernel!

Looking at the cause (being the ftrace author helped), I found that the
interrupts are disabled before the code modification of mcounts into nops. The
interrupts only need to be disabled on start up around this code, not when
modules are being loaded.

e4a3f541f0 tracing: Still trace filtered irq functions when irq trace is disabled
If a function is set to be traced by the set_graph_function, but the
option funcgraph-irqs is zero, and the traced function happens to be
called from a interrupt, it will not be traced.

The point of funcgraph-irqs is to not trace interrupts when we are
preempted by an irq, not to not trace functions we want to trace that
happen to be *in* a irq.

Luckily the current->trace_recursion element is perfect to add a flag
to help us be able to trace functions within an interrupt even when
we are not tracing interrupts that preempt the trace.
