ring_buffer: Off-by-one and duplicate events in ring_buffer_read_page

Fix two related problems in the event-copying loop of
ring_buffer_read_page.
The loop condition for copying events is off-by-one.
"len" is the remaining space in the caller-supplied page.
"size" is the size of the next event (or two events).
If len == size, then there is just enough space for the next event.
size was set to rb_event_ts_length, which may include the size of two
events if the first event is a time-extend, in order to assure time-
extends are kept together with the event after it. However,
rb_advance_reader always advances by one event. This would result in the
event after any time-extend being duplicated. Instead, get the size of
a single event for the memcpy, but use rb_event_ts_length for the loop
condition.

The taskstats structure is internally aligned on 8 byte boundaries but the
layout of the aggregrate reply, with two NLA headers and the pid (each 4
bytes), actually force the entire structure to be unaligned. This causes
the kernel to issue unaligned access warnings on some architectures like
ia64. Unfortunately, some software out there doesn't properly unroll the
NLA packet and assumes that the start of the taskstats structure will
always be 20 bytes from the start of the netlink payload. Aligning the
start of the taskstats structure breaks this software, which we don't
want. So, for now the alignment only happens on architectures that
require it and those users will have to update to fixed versions of those
packages. Space is reserved in the packet only when needed. This ifdef
should be removed in several years e.g. 2012 once we can be confident
that fixed versions are installed on most systems. We add the padding
before the aggregate since the aggregate is already a defined type.
Commit 85893120 ("delayacct: align to 8 byte boundary on 64-bit systems")
previously addressed the alignment issues by padding out the pid field.
This was supposed to be a compatible change but the circumstances
described above mean that it wasn't. This patch backs out that change,
since it was a hack, and introduces a new NULL attribute type to provide
the padding. Padding the response with 4 bytes avoids allocating an
aligned taskstats structure and copying it back. Since the structure
weighs in at 328 bytes, it's too big to do it on the stack.

Currently we have in something like the sched_switch event:
field:char prev_comm[TASK_COMM_LEN]; offset:12; size:16; signed:1;
When a userspace tool such as perf tries to parse this, the
TASK_COMM_LEN is meaningless. This is done because the TRACE_EVENT() macro
simply uses a #len to show the string of the length. When the length is
an enum, we get a string that means nothing for tools.
By adding a static buffer and a mutex to protect it, we can store the
string into that buffer with snprintf and show the actual number.
Now we get:
field:char prev_comm[16]; offset:12; size:16; signed:1;
Something much more useful.

Since the irqtime accounting is using non-atomic u64 and can be read
from remote cpus (writes are strictly cpu local, reads are not) we
have to deal with observing partial updates.
When we do observe partial updates the clock movement (in particular,
->clock_task movement) will go funny (in either direction), a
subsequent clock update (observing the full update) will make it go
funny in the oposite direction.
Since we rely on these clocks to be strictly monotonic we cannot
suffer backwards motion. One possible solution would be to simply
ignore all backwards deltas, but that will lead to accounting
artefacts, most notable: clock_task + irq_time != clock, this
inaccuracy would end up in user visible stats.
Therefore serialize the reads using a seqcount.

Some ARM systems have a short sched_clock() [ which needs to be fixed
too ], but this exposed a bug in the irq_time code as well, it doesn't
deal with wraps at all.
Fix the irq_time code to deal with u64 wraps by re-writing the code to
only use delta increments, which avoids the whole issue.

This fixes a bug as seen on 2.6.32 based kernels where timers got
enqueued on offline cpus.
If a cpu goes offline it might still have pending timers. These will
be migrated during CPU_DEAD handling after the cpu is offline.
However while the cpu is going offline it will schedule the idle task
which will then call tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick().
That function in turn will call get_next_timer_intterupt() to figure
out if the tick of the cpu can be stopped or not. If it turns out that
the next tick is just one jiffy off (delta_jiffies == 1)
tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() incorrectly assumes that the tick should
not stop and takes an early exit and thus it won't update the load
balancer cpu.
Just afterwards the cpu will be killed and the load balancer cpu could
be the offline cpu.
On 2.6.32 based kernel get_nohz_load_balancer() gets called to decide
on which cpu a timer should be enqueued (see __mod_timer()). Which
leads to the possibility that timers get enqueued on an offline cpu.
These will never expire and can cause a system hang.
This has been observed 2.6.32 kernels. On current kernels
__mod_timer() uses get_nohz_timer_target() which doesn't have that
problem. However there might be other problems because of the too
early exit tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() in case a cpu goes offline.
The easiest and probably safest fix seems to be to let
get_next_timer_interrupt() just lie and let it say there isn't any
pending timer if the current cpu is offline.
I also thought of moving migrate_[hr]timers() from CPU_DEAD to
CPU_DYING, but seeing that there already have been fixes at least in
the hrtimer code in this area I'm afraid that this could add new
subtle bugs.

idle_balance() drops/retakes rq->lock, leaving the previous task
vulnerable to set_tsk_need_resched(). Clear it after we return
from balancing instead, and in setup_thread_stack() as well, so
no successfully descheduled or never scheduled task has it set.
Need resched confused the skip_clock_update logic, which assumes
that the next call to update_rq_clock() will come nearly immediately
after being set. Make the optimization robust against the waking
a sleeper before it sucessfully deschedules case by checking that
the current task has not been dequeued before setting the flag,
since it is that useless clock update we're trying to save, and
clear unconditionally in schedule() proper instead of conditionally
in put_prev_task().

There's a long-running regression that proved difficult to fix and
which is hitting certain people and is rather annoying in its effects.
Damien reported that after 74f5187ac8 (sched: Cure load average vs
NO_HZ woes) his load average is unnaturally high, he also noted that
even with that patch reverted the load avgerage numbers are not
correct.
The problem is that the previous patch only solved half the NO_HZ
problem, it addressed the part of going into NO_HZ mode, not of
comming out of NO_HZ mode. This patch implements that missing half.
When comming out of NO_HZ mode there are two important things to take
care of:
- Folding the pending idle delta into the global active count.
- Correctly aging the averages for the idle-duration.
So with this patch the NO_HZ interaction should be complete and
behaviour between CONFIG_NO_HZ=[yn] should be equivalent.
Furthermore, this patch slightly changes the load average computation
by adding a rounding term to the fixed point multiplication.

This adds arch_remove_reservations(), which an arch can implement if it
needs to protect part of the address space from allocation.
Sometimes that can be done by just putting a region in the resource tree,
but there are cases where that doesn't work well. For example, x86 BIOS
E820 reservations are not related to devices, so they may overlap part of,
all of, or more than a device resource, so they may not end up at the
correct spot in the resource tree.

Commit 3624eb0 (PM / Hibernate: Modify signature used to mark swap)
attempted to modify hibernate signature used to mark swap partitions
containing hibernation images, so that old kernels don't try to
handle compressed images. However, this change broke resume from
hibernation on Fedora 14 that apparently doesn't pass the resume=
argument to the kernel and tries to trigger resume from early user
space. This doesn't work, because the signature is now different,
so the old signature has to be restored to avoid the problem.

Running the annotate branch profiler on three boxes, including my
main box that runs firefox, evolution, xchat, and is part of the distcc farm,
showed this with the likelys in the workqueue code:
correct incorrect % Function File Line
------- --------- - -------- ---- ----
96 996253 99 wq_worker_sleeping workqueue.c 703
96 996247 99 wq_worker_waking_up workqueue.c 677
The likely()s in this case were assuming that WORKER_NOT_RUNNING will
most likely be false. But this is not the case. The reason is
(and shown by adding trace_printks and testing it) that most of the time
WORKER_PREP is set.
In worker_thread() we have:
worker_clr_flags(worker, WORKER_PREP);
[ do work stuff ]
worker_set_flags(worker, WORKER_PREP, false);
(that 'false' means not to wake up an idle worker)
The wq_worker_sleeping() is called from schedule when a worker thread
is putting itself to sleep. Which happens most of the time outside
of that [ do work stuff ].
The wq_worker_waking_up is called by the wakeup worker code, which
is also callod outside that [ do work stuff ].
Thus, the likely and unlikely used by those two functions are actually
backwards.
Remove the annotation and let gcc figure it out.

I found a trivial bug on initialization of workqueue.
Current init_workqueues doesn't check the result of
allocation of system_unbound_wq, this should be checked
like other queues.

Simple sysfs emumeration of the PMUs.
Use a "event_source" bus, and add PMU devices using their name.
Each PMU device has a type attribute which contrains the value needed
for perf_event_attr::type to identify this PMU.
This is the minimal stub needed to start using this interface,
we'll consider extending the sysfs usage later.

Extend the perf_pmu_register() interface to allow for named and
dynamic pmu types.
Because we need to support the existing static types we cannot use
dynamic types for everything, hence provide a type argument.
If we want to enumerate the PMUs they need a name, provide one.

The file_ops struct for the "trace" special file defined llseek as seq_lseek().
However, if the file was opened for writing only, seq_open() was not called,
and the seek would dereference a null pointer, file->private_data.
This patch introduces a new wrapper for seq_lseek() which checks if the file
descriptor is opened for reading first. If not, it does nothing.

This patch fixes a hang observed with 2.6.32 kernels where timers got enqueued
on offline cpus.
printk_needs_cpu() may return 1 if called on offline cpus. When a cpu gets
offlined it schedules the idle process which, before killing its own cpu, will
call tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick(). That function in turn will call
printk_needs_cpu() in order to check if the local tick can be disabled. On
offline cpus this function should naturally return 0 since regardless if the
tick gets disabled or not the cpu will be dead short after. That is besides the
fact that __cpu_disable() should already have made sure that no interrupts on
the offlined cpu will be delivered anyway.
In this case it prevents tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() to call
select_nohz_load_balancer(). No idea if that really is a problem. However what
made me debug this is that on 2.6.32 the function get_nohz_load_balancer() is
used within __mod_timer() to select a cpu on which a timer gets enqueued. If
printk_needs_cpu() returns 1 then the nohz_load_balancer cpu doesn't get
updated when a cpu gets offlined. It may contain the cpu number of an offline
cpu. In turn timers get enqueued on an offline cpu and not very surprisingly
they never expire and cause system hangs.
This has been observed 2.6.32 kernels. On current kernels __mod_timer() uses
get_nohz_timer_target() which doesn't have that problem. However there might be
other problems because of the too early exit tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() in
case a cpu goes offline.
Easiest way to fix this is just to test if the current cpu is offline and call
printk_tick() directly which clears the condition.
Alternatively I tried a cpu hotplug notifier which would clear the condition,
however between calling the notifier function and printk_needs_cpu() something
could have called printk() again and the problem is back again. This seems to
be the safest fix.

wake_up_klogd() may get called from preemptible context but uses
__raw_get_cpu_var() to write to a per cpu variable. If it gets preempted
between getting the address and writing to it, the cpu in question could be
offline if the process gets scheduled back and hence writes to the per cpu data
of an offline cpu.
This buggy behaviour was introduced with fa33507a "printk: robustify
printk, fix #2" which was supposed to fix a "using smp_processor_id() in
preemptible" warning.
Let's use this_cpu_write() instead which disables preemption and makes sure
that the outlined scenario cannot happen.

Since commit a1afb637(switch /proc/irq/*/spurious to seq_file) all
/proc/irq/XX/spurious files show the information of irq 0.
Current irq_spurious_proc_open() passes on NULL as the 3rd argument,
which is used as an IRQ number in irq_spurious_proc_show(), to the
single_open(). Because of this, all the /proc/irq/XX/spurious file
shows IRQ 0 information regardless of the IRQ number.
To fix the problem, irq_spurious_proc_open() must pass on the
appropreate data (IRQ number) to single_open().

Originally adapted from Huang Ying's patch which moved the
unknown_nmi_panic to the traps.c file. Because the old nmi
watchdog was deleted before this change happened, the
unknown_nmi_panic sysctl was lost. This re-adds it.
Also, the nmi_watchdog sysctl was re-implemented and its
documentation updated accordingly.

Use the reboot notifier to detach all running counters on reboot, this
solves a problem with kexec where the new kernel doesn't expect
running counters (rightly so).
It will however decrease the coverage of the NMI watchdog. Making a
kexec specific reboot notifier callback would be best, however that
would require touching all notifier callback handlers as they are not
properly structured to deal with new state.
As a compromise, place the perf reboot notifier at the very last
position in the list.

inherit_events too:

There is a problem that swap pages allocated before the creation of
a hibernation image can be released and used for storing the contents
of different memory pages while the image is being saved. Since the
kernel stored in the image doesn't know of that, it causes memory
corruption to occur after resume from hibernation, especially on
systems with relatively small RAM that need to swap often.
This issue can be addressed by keeping the GFP_IOFS bits clear
in gfp_allowed_mask during the entire hibernation, including the
saving of the image, until the system is finally turned off or
the hibernation is aborted. Unfortunately, for this purpose
it's necessary to rework the way in which the hibernate and
suspend code manipulates gfp_allowed_mask.
This change is based on an earlier patch from Hugh Dickins.

This is a fix for reading LZO compressed image using async I/O.
Essentially, instead of having just one page into which we keep
reading blocks from swap, we allocate enough of them to cover the
largest compressed size and then let block I/O pick them all up. Once
we have them all (and here we wait), we decompress them, as usual.
Obviously, the very first block we still pick up synchronously,
because we need to know the size of the lot before we pick up the
rest.
Also fixed the copyright line, which I've forgotten before.

If a user manages to trigger an oops with fs set to KERNEL_DS, fs is not
otherwise reset before do_exit(). do_exit may later (via mm_release in
fork.c) do a put_user to a user-controlled address, potentially allowing
a user to leverage an oops into a controlled write into kernel memory.
This is only triggerable in the presence of another bug, but this
potentially turns a lot of DoS bugs into privilege escalations, so it's
worth fixing. I have proof-of-concept code which uses this bug along
with CVE-2010-3849 to write a zero to an arbitrary kernel address, so
I've tested that this is not theoretical.
A more logical place to put this fix might be when we know an oops has
occurred, before we call do_exit(), but that would involve changing
every architecture, in multiple places.
Let's just stick it in do_exit instead.
