* proc: loadavg reading raceMichal Schmidt2008-02-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | The avenrun[] values are supposed to be protected by xtime_lock. loadavg_read_proc does not use it. Theoretically this may result in an occasional glitch when the value read from /proc/loadavg would be as much as 1<<11 times higher than it should be.

* Add 64-bit capability support to the kernelAndrew Morgan2008-02-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The patch supports legacy (32-bit) capability userspace, and where possible translates 32-bit capabilities to/from userspace and the VFS to 64-bit kernel space capabilities. If a capability set cannot be compressed into 32-bits for consumption by user space, the system call fails, with -ERANGE. FWIW libcap-2.00 supports this change (and earlier capability formats) http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/libs/security/linux-privs/kernel-2.6/ [akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-syle fixes] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: use get_task_comm()] [ezk@cs.sunysb.edu: build fix] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: do not initialise statics to 0 or NULL] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: unused var] [serue@us.ibm.com: export __cap_ symbols] Signed-off-by: Andrew G.

* Fix /proc dcache deadlock in do_exitAndrea Arcangeli2008-02-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes a sles9 system hang in start_this_handle from a customer with some heavy workload where all tasks are waiting on kjournald to commit the transaction, but kjournald waits on t_updates to go down to zero (it never does). This was reported as a lowmem shortage deadlock but when checking the debug data I noticed the VM wasn't under pressure at all (well it was really under vm pressure, because lots of tasks hanged in the VM prune_dcache methods trying to flush dirty inodes, but no task was hanging in GFP_NOFS mode, the holder of the journal handle should have if this was a vm issue in the first place). No task was apparently holding the leftover handle in the committing transaction, so I deduced t_updates was stuck to 1 because a journal_stop was never run by some path (this turned out to be correct). With a debug patch adding proper reverse links and stack trace logging in ext3 deployed in production, I found journal_stop is never run because mark_inode_dirty_sync is called inside release_task called by do_exit. (that was quite fun because I would have never thought about this subtleness, I thought a regular path in ext3 had a bug and it forgot to call journal_stop) do_exit->release_task->mark_inode_dirty_sync->schedule() (will never come back to run journal_stop) The reason is that shrink_dcache_parent is racy by design (feature not a bug) and it can do blocking I/O in some case, but the point is that calling shrink_dcache_parent at the last stage of do_exit isn't safe for self-reaping tasks. I guess the memory pressure of the unbalanced highmem system allowed to trigger this more easily. Now mainline doesn't have this line in iput (like sles9 has): if (inode->i_state & I_DIRTY_DELAYED) mark_inode_dirty_sync(inode); so it will probably not crash with ext3, but for example ext2 implements an I/O-blocking ext2_put_inode that will lead to similar screwups with ext2_free_blocks never coming back and it's definitely wrong to call blocking-IO paths inside do_exit. So this should fix a subtle bug in mainline too (not verified in practice though). The equivalent fix for ext3 is also not verified yet to fix the problem in sles9 but I don't have doubt it will (it usually takes days to crash, so it'll take weeks to be sure). An alternate fix would be to offload that work to a kernel thread, but I don't think a reschedule for this is worth it, the vm should be able to collect those entries for the synchronous release_task.

* maps4: add proportional set size accounting in smapsFengguang Wu2008-02-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The "proportional set size" (PSS) of a process is the count of pages it has in memory, where each page is divided by the number of processes sharing it. So if a process has 1000 pages all to itself, and 1000 shared with one other process, its PSS will be 1500. - lwn.net: "ELC: How much memory are applications really using?" The PSS proposed by Matt Mackall is a very nice metic for measuring an process's memory footprint. So collect and export it via /proc/<pid>/smaps. Matt Mackall's pagemap/kpagemap and John Berthels's exmap can also do the job. They are comprehensive tools. But for PSS, let's do it in the simple way.

This is wrong, ->real_parent could be freed/reused. Both ->parent/real_parent point to nothing after __exit_signal() because we remove the child from ->children list, and thus the child can't be reparented when its parent exits. rcu_read_lock() protects ->parent/real_parent, but _only_ if we know it was valid before we take rcu lock.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | task_ppid_nr_ns is called in three places. One of these should never have called it. In the other two, using it broke the existing semantics. This was presumably accidental. If the function had not been there, it would have been much more obvious to the eye that those patches were changing the behavior. We don't need this function. In task_state, the pid of the ptracer is not the ppid of the ptracer. In do_task_stat, ppid is the tgid of the real_parent, not its pid. I also moved the call outside of lock_task_sighand, since it doesn't need it. In sys_getppid, ppid is the tgid of the real_parent, not its pid.

* | proc: remove/Fix proc generic d_revalidateEric W. Biederman2007-12-10
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Ultimately to implement /proc perfectly we need an implementation of d_revalidate because files and directories can be removed behind the back of the VFS, and d_revalidate is the only way we can let the VFS know that this has happened. Unfortunately the linux VFS can not cope with anything in the path to a mount point going away. So a proper d_revalidate method that calls d_drop also needs to call have_submounts which is moderately expensive, so you really don't want a d_revalidate method that unconditionally calls it, but instead only calls it when the backing object has really gone away. proc generic entries only disappear on module_unload (when not counting the fledgling network namespace) so it is quite rare that we actually encounter that case and has not actually caused us real world trouble yet. So until we get a proper test for keeping dentries in the dcache fix the current d_revalidate method by completely removing it. This returns us to the current status quo. So with CONFIG_NETNS=n things should look as they have always looked. For CONFIG_NETNS=y things work most of the time but there are a few rare corner cases that don't behave properly. As the network namespace is barely present in 2.6.24 this should not be a problem. Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Cc: "Rafael J.

| * [NETNS]: Fix /proc/net breakageEric W. Biederman2007-12-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Well I clearly goofed when I added the initial network namespace support for /proc/net. Currently things work but there are odd details visible to user space, even when we have a single network namespace. Since we do not cache proc_dir_entry dentries at the moment we can just modify ->lookup to return a different directory inode depending on the network namespace of the process looking at /proc/net, replacing the current technique of using a magic and fragile follow_link method. To accomplish that this patch: - introduces a shadow_proc method to allow different dentries to be returned from proc_lookup. - Removes the old /proc/net follow_link magic - Fixes a weakness in our not caching of proc generic dentries. As shadow_proc uses a task struct to decided which dentry to return we can go back later and fix the proc generic caching without modifying any code that uses the shadow_proc method.

* | proc: remove races from proc_id_readdir()Eric W. Biederman2007-11-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Oleg noticed that the call of task_pid_nr_ns() in proc_pid_readdir is racy with respect to tasks exiting. After a bit of examination it also appears that the call itself is completely unnecessary. So to fix the problem this patch modifies next_tgid() to return both a tgid and the task struct in question. A structure is introduced to return these values because it is slightly cleaner and easier to optimize, and the resulting code is a little shorter. Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

* | proc: fix NULL ->i_fop oopsAlexey Dobriyan2007-11-29

The solution is to remove proc_kill_inodes() completely: a) we don't have tricky modules implementing their tricky readdir hooks which could keeping this revoke from hell. b) In a situation when module is gone but PDE still alive, standard readdir will return only "." and "..", because pde->next was cleared by remove_proc_entry(). c) the race proc_kill_inode() destined to prevent is not completely fixed, just race window made smaller, because vfs_readdir() is run without sb_lock held and without file_list_lock held. Effectively, ->i_fop is cleared at random moment, which can't fix properly anything.

* [NET]: Marking struct pernet_operations __net_initdata was inappropriateEric W. Biederman2007-10-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is not safe to to place struct pernet_operations in a special section. We need struct pernet_operations to last until we call unregister_pernet_subsys. Which doesn't happen until module unload. So marking struct pernet_operations is a disaster for modules in two ways. - We discard it before we call the exit method it points to. - Because I keep struct pernet_operations on a linked list discarding it for compiled in code removes elements in the middle of a linked list and does horrible things for linked insert. So this looks safe assuming __exit_refok is not discarded for modules. Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Unfortunately this patch cannot be sent right now as this leads to tons of warnings, so start isolating them, and deprecate later.
