491d0dcfb9 ftrace: Consolidate updating of ftrace_trace_function
There are three locations that perform almost identical functions in order
to update the ftrace_trace_function (the ftrace function variable that gets
called by mcount).

Consolidate these into a single function called update_ftrace_function().

996e87be7f ftrace: Move record update for normal and modules into a separate function
The updating of a function record is moved to a single function. This will allow
us to add specific changes in one location for both modules and kernel
functions.

Later patches will determine if the function record itself needs to be updated
(which enables the mcount caller), or just the ftrace_ops needs the update.

d2c8c3eafb ftrace: Remove FTRACE_FL_CONVERTED flag
Since we disable all function tracer processing if we detect
that a modification of a instruction had failed, we do not need
to track that the record has failed. No more ftrace processing
is allowed, and the FTRACE_FL_CONVERTED flag is pointless.

The FTRACE_FL_CONVERTED flag was used to denote records that were
successfully converted from mcount calls into nops. But if a single
record fails, all of ftrace is disabled.

Since we disable all function tracer processing if we detect

Removing this flag simplifies some of the code, but some ftrace_disabled
checks needed to be added or move around a little.

8ab2b7efd3 ftrace: Remove unnecessary disabling of irqs
The disabling of interrupts around ftrace_update_code() was used
to protect against the evil ftrace daemon from years past. But that
daemon has long been killed. It is safe to keep interrupts enabled
while updating the initial mcount into nops.

The ftrace_mutex is also held which keeps other users at bay.

Many different platforms and subsystems may want to disable device

5035b20fa5 workqueue: fix deadlock in worker_maybe_bind_and_lock()
If a rescuer and stop_machine() bringing down a CPU race with each
other, they may deadlock on non-preemptive kernel.  The CPU won't
accept a new task, so the rescuer can't migrate to the target CPU,
while stop_machine() can't proceed because the rescuer is holding one
of the CPU retrying migration.  GCWQ_DISASSOCIATED is never cleared
and worker_maybe_bind_and_lock() retries indefinitely.

This problem can be reproduced semi reliably while the system is
entering suspend.

ce31332d3c hrtimer: Initialize CLOCK_ID to HRTIMER_BASE table statically
Sedat and Bruno reported RCU stalls which turned out to be caused by
the following;

sched_init() calls init_rt_bandwidth() which calls hrtimer_init()
_BEFORE_ hrtimers_init() is called. While not entirely correct this
worked because hrtimer_init() only accessed statically initialized
data (hrtimer_bases.clock_base[CLOCK_MONOTONIC])

Commit e06383db9 (hrtimers: extend hrtimer base code to handle more
then 2 clockids) added an indirection to the hrtimer_bases.clock_base
lookup to avoid gap handling in the hot path. The table which is used
for the translataion from CLOCK_ID to HRTIMER_BASE index is
initialized at runtime in hrtimers_init(). So the early call of the
scheduler code translates CLOCK_MONOTONIC to HRTIMER_BASE_REALTIME.

Thus the rt_bandwith timer ends up on CLOCK_REALTIME. If the timer is
armed and the wall clock time is set (e.g. ntpdate in the early boot
process - which also gives the problem deterministic behaviour
i.e. magic recovery after N hours), then the timer ends up with an
expiry time far into the future. That breaks the RT throttler
mechanism as rt runtime is accumulated and never cleared, so the rt
throttler detects a false cpu hog condition and blocks all RT tasks
until the timer finally expires. That in turn stalls the RCU thread of
TINYRCU which leads to an huge amount of RCU callbacks piling up.

Make the translation table statically initialized, so we are back to
the status of <= 2.6.39.

7068b7a162 timers: Remove delayed irqwork from alarmtimers implementation
Thomas asked about the delayed irq work in the alarmtimers code,
and I realized that it was a legacy from when the alarmtimer base
lock was a mutex (due to concerns that we'd be interacting with
the RTC device, which is protected by mutexes).

Since the alarmtimer base is now protected by a spinlock, we can
simply execute alarmtimer functions directly from the hrtimer
callback. Should any future alarmtimer functions sleep, they can
simply manage scheduling any delayed work themselves.

b182801ab3 signal: do_sigtimedwait() needs retarget_shared_pending()
do_sigtimedwait() changes current->blocked and thus it needs
set_current_blocked()->retarget_shared_pending().

We could use set_current_blocked() directly. It is fine to change
->real_blocked from all-zeroes to ->blocked and vice versa lockless,
but this is not immediately clear, looks racy, and needs a huge
comment to explain why this is correct.

To keep the things simple this patch adds the new static helper,
__set_task_blocked() which should be called with ->siglock held. This
way we can change both ->real_blocked and ->blocked atomically under
->siglock as the current code does. This is more understandable.

e6fa16ab9c signal: sigprocmask() should do retarget_shared_pending()
In short, almost every changing of current->blocked is wrong, or at least
can lead to the unexpected results.

For example. Two threads T1 and T2, T1 sleeps in sigtimedwait/pause/etc.
kill(tgid, SIG) can pick T2 for TIF_SIGPENDING. If T2 calls sigprocmask()
and blocks SIG before it notices the pending signal, nobody else can handle
this pending shared signal.

I am not sure this is bug, but at least this looks strange imho. T1 should
not sleep forever, there is a signal which should wake it up.

This patch moves the code which actually changes ->blocked into the new
helper, set_current_blocked() and changes this code to call
retarget_shared_pending() as exit_signals() does. We should only care about
the signals we just blocked, we use "newset & ~current->blocked" as a mask.

We do not check !sigisemptyset(newblocked), retarget_shared_pending() is
cheap unless mask & shared_pending.

Note: for this particular case we could simply change sigprocmask() to
return -EINTR if signal_pending(), but then we should change other callers
and, more importantly, if we need this fix then set_current_blocked() will
have more callers and some of them can't restart. See the next patch as a
random example.

2. Since tsk is current (or tsk is being created by copy_process) access to

9a7adcf5c6 timers: Posix interface for alarm-timers
This patch exposes alarm-timers to userland via the posix clock
and timers interface, using two new clockids: CLOCK_REALTIME_ALARM
and CLOCK_BOOTTIME_ALARM. Both clockids behave identically to
CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_BOOTTIME, respectively, but timers
set against the _ALARM suffixed clockids will wake the system if
it is suspended.

Some background can be found here:
	https://lwn.net/Articles/429925/

The concept for Alarm-timers was inspired by the Android Alarm
driver (by Arve Hjønnevåg) found in the Android kernel tree.

See: http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=kernel/common.git;a=blob;f=drivers/rtc/alarm.c;h=1250edfbdf3302f5e4ea6194847c6ef4bb7beb1c;hb=android-2.6.36

While the in-kernel interface is pretty similar between
alarm-timers and Android alarm driver, the user-space interface
for the Android alarm driver is via ioctls to a new char device.
As mentioned above, I've instead chosen to export this functionality
via the posix interface, as it seemed a little simpler and avoids
creating duplicate interfaces to things like CLOCK_REALTIME and
CLOCK_MONOTONIC under alternate names (ie:ANDROID_ALARM_RTC and
ANDROID_ALARM_SYSTEMTIME).

The semantics of the Android alarm driver are different from what
this posix interface provides. For instance, threads other then
the thread waiting on the Android alarm driver are able to modify
the alarm being waited on. Also this interface does not allow
the same wakelock semantics that the Android driver provides
(ie: kernel takes a wakelock on RTC alarm-interupt, and holds it
through process wakeup, and while the process runs, until the
process either closes the char device or calls back in to wait
on a new alarm).

One potential way to implement similar semantics may be via
the timerfd infrastructure, but this needs more research.

There may also need to be some sort of sysfs system level policy
hooks that allow alarm timers to be disabled to keep them
from firing at inappropriate times (ie: laptop in a well insulated
bag, mid-flight).

ff3ead96d1 timers: Introduce in-kernel alarm-timer interface
This provides the in kernel interface and infrastructure for
alarm-timers.

Alarm-timers are a hybrid style timer, similar to hrtimers,
but when the system is suspended, the RTC device is set to
fire and wake the system for when the soonest alarm-timer
expires.

The concept for Alarm-timers was inspired by the Android Alarm
driver (by Arve Hjønnevåg) found in the Android kernel tree.

See: http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=kernel/common.git;a=blob;f=drivers/rtc/alarm.c;h=1250edfbdf3302f5e4ea6194847c6ef4bb7beb1c;hb=android-2.6.36

This in-kernel interface should be fairly compatible with the
Android alarm driver in-kernel interface, but has the advantage
of utilizing the new RTC timerqueue code instead of doing direct
RTC manipulation.

304529b1b6 time: Add timekeeping_inject_sleeptime
Some platforms cannot implement read_persistent_clock, as
their RTC devices are only accessible when interrupts are enabled.
This keeps them from being used by the timekeeping code on resume
to measure the time in suspend.

The RTC layer tries to work around this, by calling do_settimeofday
on resume after irqs are reenabled to set the time properly. However,
this only corrects CLOCK_REALTIME, and does not properly adjust
the sleep time value. This causes btime in /proc/stat to be incorrect
as well as making the new CLOCK_BOTTTIME inaccurate.

This patch resolves the issue by introducing a new timekeeping hook
to allow the RTC layer to inject the sleep time on resume.

The code also checks to make sure that read_persistent_clock is
nonfunctional before setting the sleep time, so that should the RTC's
HCTOSYS option be configured in on a system that does support
read_persistent_clock we will not increase the total_sleep_time twice.

7816c45bf1 modules: Enabled dynamic debugging for staging modules
Driver modules from the staging directory are marked 'tainted'
by module.c. Subsequently, tainted modules are denied dynamic
debugging. This is unwanted behavior, since staging modules should
be able to use the dynamic debugging mechanism.

Please merge this also into the staging-linus branch.

bf26c01849 ptrace: Prepare to fix racy accesses on task breakpoints
When a task is traced and is in a stopped state, the tracer
may execute a ptrace request to examine the tracee state and
get its task struct. Right after, the tracee can be killed
and thus its breakpoints released.
This can happen concurrently when the tracer is in the middle
of reading or modifying these breakpoints, leading to dereferencing
a freed pointer.

Hence, to prepare the fix, create a generic breakpoint reference
holding API. When a reference on the breakpoints of a task is
held, the breakpoints won't be released until the last reference
is dropped. After that, no more ptrace request on the task's
breakpoints can be serviced for the tracer.

625f2a378e sched: Get rid of lock_depth
Neil Brown pointed out that lock_depth somehow escaped the BKL
removal work.  Let's get rid of it now.

Note that the perf scripting utilities still have a bunch of
code for dealing with common_lock_depth in tracepoints; I have
left that in place in case anybody wants to use that code with
older kernels.

cfefd21e69 genirq: Add chip suspend and resume callbacks
These callbacks are only called in the syscore suspend/resume code on
interrupt chips which have been registered via the generic irq chip
mechanism. Calling those callbacks per irq would be rather icky, but
with the generic irq chip mechanism we can call this per registered
chip.

7f1b1244e1 genirq: Support per-IRQ thread disabling.
This adds support for disabling threading on a per-IRQ basis via the IRQ
status instead of the IRQ flow, which is necessary for interrupts that
don't follow the natural IRQ flow channels, such as those that are
virtually created.

The new APIs added are simply:

	irq_set_thread()
	irq_set_nothread()

which follow the rest of the IRQ status routines.

Chained handlers also have IRQ_NOTHREAD set on them automatically, making
the lack of threading explicit rather than implicit. Subsequently, the
nothread flag can be viewed through the standard genirq debugging
facilities.

e0944ee63f lockdep: Remove cmpxchg to update nr_chain_hlocks
For some reason nr_chain_hlocks is updated with cmpxchg, but
this is performed inside of the lockdep global "grab_lock()",
which also makes simple modification of this variable atomic.

Remove the cmpxchg logic for updating nr_chain_hlocks and
simplify the code.

dad3d7435e lockdep: Print a nicer description for irq inversion bugs
Irq inversion and irq dependency bugs are only subtly
different. The diffenerence lies where the interrupt occurred.

For irq dependency:

	irq_disable
	lock(A)
	lock(B)
	unlock(B)
	unlock(A)
	irq_enable

	lock(B)
	unlock(B)

 	<interrupt>
	  lock(A)

The interrupt comes in after it has been established that lock A
can be held when taking an irq unsafe lock. Lockdep detects the
problem when taking lock A in interrupt context.

With the irq_inversion the irq happens before it is established
and lockdep detects the problem with the taking of lock B:

 	<interrupt>
	  lock(A)

	irq_disable
	lock(A)
	lock(B)
	unlock(B)
	unlock(A)
	irq_enable

	lock(B)
	unlock(B)

Since the problem with the locking logic for both of these issues
is in actuality the same, they both should report the same scenario.
This patch implements that and prints this:

other info that might help us debug this:

Chain exists of:
  &rq->lock --> lockA --> lockC

 Possible interrupt unsafe locking scenario:

       CPU0                    CPU1
       ----                    ----
  lock(lockC);
                               local_irq_disable();
                               lock(&rq->lock);
                               lock(lockA);
  <Interrupt>
    lock(&rq->lock);
