* namespaces: default all the namespaces to 'yes' when CONFIG_NAMESPACES is ↵Daniel Lezcano2010-10-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | selected As the different namespaces depend on 'CONFIG_NAMESPACES', it is logical to enable all the namespaces when we enable NAMESPACES.

| | | | | | | | | | | | The pid namespace is in the kernel since 2.6.27 and the net_ns since 2.6.29. They are enabled in the distro by default and used by userspace component.

* rapidio: add handling of redundant routesAlexandre Bounine2010-10-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Detects RIO link to the already enumerated device and properly sets links between device objects. Changes to the enumeration/discovery logic: 1. Use Master Enable bit to signal end of the enumeration - agents may start their discovery process as soon as they see this bit set (Component Tag register was used before for this purpose). 2. Enumerator sets Component Tag (!= 0) immediately during device setup. This allows to identify the device if the redundant route exists in a RIO system.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This set of RapidIO patches extends support for standard error recovery mechanism and adds new IDT Gen2 sRIO switch devices - CPS-1848 and CPS-1616.

Version 2 of this set of patches addresses received comments and fixes an error notification setup issue found in the idt_gen2.c after the first version was released.

* synclink_gt: fix per device lockingPaul Fulghum2010-10-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix a long standing bug with per device locking. Each device has an associated spinlock for synchronizing access to hardware and state information with the ISR. A single hardware card has one or more devices. Bug: Non ISR code correctly acquires and releases the per device lock. ISR incorrectly always acquires and releases the lock of the first device on the card. The decoupled and list based nature of the ISR and deferred processing interaction allowed this to work in normal operation. Exceptional events like an application forcing hardware shutdown, reset, or reconfiguration while active can trigger the bug. Fixed ISR to acquire and release the per device lock. One exception is manipulation of the GPIO card resource which is global and effectively owned by the first device of the card. Non-ISR access to GPIO resource is changed to use lock of first device on card.

* ipc/shm.c: add RSS and swap size information to /proc/sysvipc/shmHelge Deller2010-10-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The kernel currently provides no functionality to analyze the RSS and swap space usage of each individual sysvipc shared memory segment. This patch adds this info for each existing shm segment by extending the output of /proc/sysvipc/shm by two columns for RSS and swap. Since shmctl(SHM_INFO) already provides a similiar calculation (it currently sums up all RSS/swap info for all segments), I did split out a static function which is now used by the /proc/sysvipc/shm output and shmctl(SHM_INFO). SAP products (esp. the SAP Netweaver ABAP Kernel) uses lots of big shared memory segments (we often have Linux systems with >= 16GB shm usage). Sometimes we get customer reports about "slow" system responses and while looking into their configurations we often find massive swapping activity on the system. With this patch it's now easy to see from the command line if and which shm segments gets swapped out (and how much) and can more easily give recommendations for system tuning. Without the patch it's currently not possible to do such shm analysis at all. Also... Add some spaces in front of the "size" field for 64bit kernels to get the columns correct if you cat the contents of the file. In sysvipc_shm_proc_show() the kernel prints the size value in "SPEC_SIZE" format, which is defined like this: #if BITS_PER_LONG <= 32 #define SIZE_SPEC "%10lu" #else #define SIZE_SPEC "%21lu" #endif So, if the header is not adjusted, the columns are not correctly aligned. I actually tested this on 32- and 64-bit and it seems correct now.

* /proc/stat: fix scalability of irq sum of all cpuKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki2010-10-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In /proc/stat, the number of per-IRQ event is shown by making a sum each irq's events on all cpus. But we can make use of kstat_irqs(). kstat_irqs() do the same calculation, If !CONFIG_GENERIC_HARDIRQ, it's not a big cost. (Both of the number of cpus and irqs are small.) If a system is very big and CONFIG_GENERIC_HARDIRQ, it does for_each_irq() for_each_cpu() - look up a radix tree - read desc->irq_stat[cpu] This seems not efficient. This patch adds kstat_irqs() for CONFIG_GENRIC_HARDIRQ and change the calculation as for_each_irq() look up radix tree for_each_cpu() - read desc->irq_stat[cpu] This reduces cost.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | /proc/stat shows the total number of all interrupts to each cpu. But when the number of IRQs are very large, it take very long time and 'cat /proc/stat' takes more than 10 secs. This is because sum of all irq events are counted when /proc/stat is read. This patch adds "sum of all irq" counter percpu and reduce read costs. The cost of reading /proc/stat is important because it's used by major applications as 'top', 'ps', 'w', etc....

* /proc/pid/smaps: export amount of anonymous memory in a mappingNikanth Karthikesan2010-10-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Export the number of anonymous pages in a mapping via smaps. Even the private pages in a mapping backed by a file, would be marked as anonymous, when they are modified. Export this information to user-space via smaps. Exporting this count will help gdb to make a better decision on which areas need to be dumped in its coredump; and should be useful to others studying the memory usage of a process.

* coredump: default CONFIG_CORE_DUMP_DEFAULT_ELF_HEADERS=yRoland McGrath2010-10-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The userland ELF tools have been coping with partial-segments core files for a few years now. Multiple distro builds are now setting this option. It behooves everyone who ever deals with core files to have more info dumped in there, especially as more and more people's compilers are producing build IDs. Make it the default. Anyone using older tools confused by these core files can configure this option off, or just change /proc/PID/coredump_filter after boot.

* core_pattern: fix truncation by core_pattern handler with long parametersXiaotian Feng2010-10-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We met a parameter truncated issue, consider following: > echo "|/root/core_pattern_pipe_test %p /usr/libexec/blah-blah-blah \ %s %c %p %u %g 11 12345678901234567890123456789012345678 %t" > \ /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern This is okay because the strings is less than CORENAME_MAX_SIZE. "cat /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern" shows the whole string. but after we run core_pattern_pipe_test in man page, we found last parameter was truncated like below: argc[10]=<12807486> The root cause is core_pattern allows % specifiers, which need to be replaced during parse time, but the replace may expand the strings to larger than CORENAME_MAX_SIZE. So if the last parameter is % specifiers, the replace code is using snprintf(out_ptr, out_end - out_ptr, ...), this will write out of corename array.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Oleg Nesterov pointed out we have to prevent multiple-threads-inside-exec itself and we can reuse ->cred_guard_mutex for it. Yes, concurrent execve() has no worth. Let's move ->cred_guard_mutex from task_struct to signal_struct. It naturally prevent multiple-threads-inside-exec.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | lock_task_sighand() grabs sighand->siglock in case of returning non-NULL but unlock_task_sighand() releases it unconditionally. This leads sparse to complain about the lock context imbalance. Rename and wrap lock_task_sighand() using __cond_lock() macro to make sparse happy.
