* signals: cleanup the usage of print_fatal_signal()Oleg Nesterov2008-04-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Move the callsite of print_fatal_signal() down, under "if (sig_kernel_coredump(signr))", so we don't need to check signr != SIGKILL. We are only interested in the sig_kernel_coredump() signals anyway, and due to the previous changes we almost never can see other fatal signals here except SIGKILL.

* signals: handle_stop_signal: don't worry about SIGKILLOleg Nesterov2008-04-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | handle_stop_signal() clears SIGNAL_STOP_DEQUEUED when sig == SIGKILL. Remove this nasty special case. It was needed to prevent the race with group stop and exit caused by thread-specific SIGKILL. Now that we use complete_signal() for private signals too this is not needed, complete_signal() will notice SIGKILL and abort the soon-to-begin group stop. Except: the target thread is dead (has PF_EXITING). But in that case we should not just clear SIGNAL_STOP_DEQUEUED and nothing more. We should either kill the whole thread group, or silently ignore the signal. I suspect we are not right wrt zombie leaders, but this is another issue which and should be fixed separately. Note that this check can't abort the group stop if it was already started/finished, this check only adds a subtle side effect if we race with the thread which has already dequeued sig_kernel_stop() signal and temporary released ->siglock.

* signals: join send_sigqueue() with send_group_sigqueue()Oleg Nesterov2008-04-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | We export send_sigqueue() and send_group_sigqueue() for the only user, posix_timer_event(). This is a bit silly, because both are just trivial helpers on top of do_send_sigqueue() and because the we pass the unused .si_signo parameter. Kill them both, rename do_send_sigqueue() to send_sigqueue(), and export it.

* signals: unify send_sigqueue/send_group_sigqueue completelyOleg Nesterov2008-04-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Suggested by Pavel Emelyanov. send_sigqueue/send_group_sigqueue are only differ in how they lock ->siglock. Unify them. send_group_sigqueue() uses spin_lock() because it knows the task can't exit, but in that case lock_task_sighand() can't fail and doesn't hurt. Note that the "sig" argument is ignored, it is always equal to ->si_signo.

* signals: use __group_complete_signal() for the specific signals tooOleg Nesterov2008-04-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Based on Pavel Emelyanov's suggestion. Rename __group_complete_signal() to complete_signal() and use it to process the specific signals too. To do this we simply add the "int group" argument. This allows us to greatly simply the signal-sending code and adds a useful behaviour change. We can avoid the unneeded wakeups for the private signals because wants_signal() is more clever than sigismember(blocked), but more importantly we now take into account the fatal specific signals too. The latter allows us to kill some subtle checks in handle_stop_signal() and makes the specific/group signal's behaviour more consistent. For example, currently sigtimedwait(FATAL_SIGNAL) behaves differently depending on was the signal sent by kill() or tkill() if the signal was not blocked. And. This allows us to tweak/fix the behaviour when the specific signal is sent to the dying/dead ->group_leader.

* signals: send_sig_info: don't take tasklist_lockOleg Nesterov2008-04-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The comment in send_sig_info() is wrong, tasklist_lock can't help. The caller must ensure the task can't go away, otherwise ->sighand can be NULL even before we take the lock. p->sighand could be changed by exec(), but I can't imagine how it is possible to prevent exit(), but not exec(). Since the things seem to work, I assume all callers are correct. However, drm_vbl_send_signals() looks broken. block_all_signals() which is solely used by drm is definitely broken.

* signals: move handle_stop_signal() into send_signal()Oleg Nesterov2008-04-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Move handle_stop_signal() into send_signal(). This factors out a couple of callsites and allows us to do further unifications. Also, with this change specific_send_sig_info() does handle_stop_signal(). Not that this is really important, we never send STOP/CONT via send_sig() and friends, but still this looks more consistent. The only (afaics) special case is get_signal_to_deliver(). If the traced task dequeues SIGCONT, it can re-send it to itself after ptrace_stop() if the signal was blocked by debugger. In that case handle_stop_signal() is unnecessary, but hopefully not a problem.

* signals: re-assign CLD_CONTINUED notification from the sender to recieverOleg Nesterov2008-04-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Based on discussion with Jiri and Roland. In short: currently handle_stop_signal(SIGCONT, p) sends the notification to p->parent, with this patch p itself notifies its parent when it becomes running. handle_stop_signal(SIGCONT) has to drop ->siglock temporary in order to notify the parent with do_notify_parent_cldstop(). This leads to multiple problems: - as Jiri Kosina pointed out, the stopped task can resume without actually seeing SIGCONT which may have a handler. - we race with another sig_kernel_stop() signal which may come in that window. - we race with sig_fatal() signals which may set SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT in that window. - we can't avoid taking tasklist_lock() while sending SIGCONT. With this patch handle_stop_signal() just sets the new SIGNAL_CLD_CONTINUED flag in p->signal->flags and returns. The notification is sent by the first task which returns from finish_stop() (there should be at least one) or any other signalled thread from get_signal_to_deliver(). This is a user-visible change. Say, currently kill(SIGCONT, stopped_child) can't return without seeing SIGCHLD, with this patch SIGCHLD can be delayed unpredictably. Another difference is that if the child is ptraced by another process, CLD_CONTINUED may be delivered to ->real_parent after ptrace_detach() while currently it always goes to the tracer which doesn't actually need this notification. Hopefully not a problem. The patch asks for the futher obvious cleanups, I'll send them separately.

* signals: cleanup security_task_kill() usage/implementationOleg Nesterov2008-04-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Every implementation of ->task_kill() does nothing when the signal comes from the kernel. This is correct, but means that check_kill_permission() should call security_task_kill() only for SI_FROMUSER() case, and we can remove the same check from ->task_kill() implementations. (sadly, check_kill_permission() is the last user of signal->session/__session but we can't s/task_session_nr/task_session/ here). NOTE: Eric W. Biederman pointed out cap_task_kill() should die, and I think he is very right. Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@tv-sign.ru> Cc: "Eric W.

* signals: consolidate send_sigqueue and send_group_sigqueuePavel Emelyanov2008-04-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Both functions do the same thing after proper locking, but with different sigpending structs, so move the common code into a helper. After this we have 4 places that look very similar: send_sigqueue: calls do_send_sigqueue and signal_wakeup send_group_sigqueue: calls do_send_sigqueue and __group_complete_signal __group_send_sig_info: calls send_signal and __group_complete_signal specific_send_sig_info: calls send_signal and signal_wakeup Besides, send_signal performs actions similar to do_send_sigqueue's and __group_complete_signal - to signal_wakeup. It looks like they can be consolidated gracefully. Oleg said: Personally, I think this change is very good. But send_sigqueue() and send_group_sigqueue() have a very subtle difference which I was never able to understand. Let's suppose that sigqueue is already queued, and the signal is ignored (the latter means we should re-schedule cpu timer or handle overrruns). In that case send_sigqueue() returns 0, but send_group_sigqueue() returns 1. I think this is not the problem (in fact, I think this patch makes the behaviour more correct), but I hope Thomas can take a look and confirm.

* md: fix up switching md arrays between read-only and read-writeNeilBrown2008-04-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | When setting an array to 'readonly' or to 'active' via sysfs, we must make the appropriate set_disk_ro call too. Also when switching to "read_auto" (which is like readonly, but blocks on the first write so that metadata can be marked 'dirty') we need to be more careful about what state we are changing from.

* md: fix 'safemode' handling for external metadata.NeilBrown2008-04-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 'safemode' relates to marking an array as 'clean' if there has been no write traffic for a while (a couple of seconds), to reduce the chance of the array being found dirty on reboot. ->safemode is set to '1' when there have been no write for a while, and it gets set to '0' when the superblock is updates with the 'clean' flag set. This requires a few fixes for 'external' metadata: - When an array is set to 'clean' via sysfs, 'safemode' must be cleared. - when we write to an array that has 'safemode' set (there must have been some delay in updating the metadata), we need to clear safemode. - Don't try to update external metadata in md_check_recovery for safemode transitions - it won't work. Also, don't try to support "immediate safe mode" (safemode==2) for external metadata, it cannot really work (the safemode timeout can be set very low if this is really needed).

* md: reinitialise more mddev fields in do_md_stop.NeilBrown2008-04-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | I keep finding problems where an mddev gets reused and some fields has a value from a previous usage that confuses the new usage. So clear all fields that could possible need clearing when calling do_md_stop. Also initialise the 'level' of a new array to LEVEL_NONE (which isn't 0).

* pxafb: introduce register independent LCD connection type for pxafberic miao2008-04-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Reasons: 1. straight forward: the name "LCD_COLOR_DSTN_16BPP" is much better than "LCCR0_Pas | LCCR0_Color | LCCR0_Dual" 2. by defining LCD connection types as constants, it allows only valid possibilities 3. by removing the dependency of register bits definitions, those can be later moved into the body of pxafb.c, instead of having a regs-lcd.h around Currently, only lubbock, mainstone, zylonite and littleton have been modified to support these types (see coming patches after this). Other platforms are encouraged to change their way describing the LCD controller connections. Signed-off-by: eric miao <eric.miao@marvell.com> Cc: "Antonino A.
