The wake_up_process() call in ptrace_detach() is spurious and not
interlocked with the tracee state. IOW, the tracee could be running or
sleeping in any place in the kernel by the time wake_up_process() is
called. This can lead to the tracee waking up unexpectedly which can be
dangerous.
The wake_up is spurious and should be removed but for now reduce its
toxicity by only waking up if the tracee is in TRACED or STOPPED state.
This bug can possibly be used as an attack vector. I don't think it
will take too much effort to come up with an attack which triggers oops
somewhere. Most sleeps are wrapped in condition test loops and should
be safe but we have quite a number of places where sleep and wakeup
conditions are expected to be interlocked. Although the window of
opportunity is tiny, ptrace can be used by non-privileged users and with
some loading the window can definitely be extended and exploited.

In commit ce6ada35bdf7 ("security: Define CAP_SYSLOG") Serge Hallyn
introduced CAP_SYSLOG, but broke backwards compatibility by no longer
accepting CAP_SYS_ADMIN as an override (it would cause a warning and
then reject the operation).
Re-instate CAP_SYS_ADMIN - but keeping the warning - as an acceptable
capability until any legacy applications have been updated. There are
apparently applications out there that drop all capabilities except for
CAP_SYS_ADMIN in order to access the syslog.
(This is a re-implementation of a patch by Serge, cleaning the logic up
and making the code more readable)

Now if we enable blktrace, cfq has too many messages output to the
trace buffer. It is fine if we don't specify any action mask.
But if I do like this:
blktrace /dev/sdb -a issue -a complete -o - | blkparse -i -
I only want to see 'D' and 'C', while with the following command
dd if=/mnt/ocfs2/test of=/dev/null bs=4k count=1 iflag=direct
I will get(with a 2.6.37 vanilla kernel):

See, there are 19 lines while I only need 2. I don't think it is

So this patch will disable any messages if the BLK_TC_NOTIFY isn't set.
Now the output for the same command will look like:

8,16 0 2 0.000146827 0 C R 114759 + 8 [0]
Yes, it is what I want to see.

In prepare_kernel_cred() since 2.6.29, put_cred(new) is called without
assigning new->usage when security_prepare_creds() returned an error. As a
result, memory for new and refcount for new->{user,group_info,tgcred} are
leaked because put_cred(new) won't call __put_cred() unless old->usage == 1.
Fix these leaks by assigning new->usage (and new->subscribers which was added
in 2.6.32) before calling security_prepare_creds().

In cred_alloc_blank() since 2.6.32, abort_creds(new) is called with
new->security == NULL and new->magic == 0 when security_cred_alloc_blank()
returns an error. As a result, BUG() will be triggered if SELinux is enabled
or CONFIG_DEBUG_CREDENTIALS=y.
If CONFIG_DEBUG_CREDENTIALS=y, BUG() is called from __invalid_creds() because
cred->magic == 0. Failing that, BUG() is called from selinux_cred_free()
because selinux_cred_free() is not expecting cred->security == NULL. This does
not affect smack_cred_free(), tomoyo_cred_free() or apparmor_cred_free().
Fix these bugs by
(1) Set new->magic before calling security_cred_alloc_blank().
(2) Handle null cred->security in creds_are_invalid() and selinux_cred_free().

Calling local_bh_enable() will want to actually start processing
softirqs, which isn't a good idea since this can get called with IRQs
disabled.
Cure this by using _local_bh_enable() which doesn't start processing
softirqs, and use raw_local_irq_save() to avoid any softirqs from
happening without letting lockdep think IRQs are in fact disabled.

Currently the syscall_meta structures for the syscall tracepoints are
placed in the __syscall_metadata section, and at link time, the linker
makes one large array of all these syscall metadata structures. On boot
up, this array is read (much like the initcall sections) and the syscall
data is processed.
The problem is that there is no guarantee that gcc will place complex
structures nicely together in an array format. Two structures in the
same file may be placed awkwardly, because gcc has no clue that they
are suppose to be in an array.
A hack was used previous to force the alignment to 4, to pack the
structures together. But this caused alignment issues with other
architectures (sparc).
Instead of packing the structures into an array, the structures' addresses
are now put into the __syscall_metadata section. As pointers are always the
natural alignment, gcc should always pack them tightly together
(otherwise initcall, extable, etc would also fail).
By having the pointers to the structures in the section, we can still
iterate the trace_events without causing unnecessary alignment problems
with other architectures, or depending on the current behaviour of
gcc that will likely change in the future just to tick us kernel developers
off a little more.
The __syscall_metadata section is also moved into the .init.data section
as it is now only needed at boot up.

Make the tracepoints more robust, making them solid enough to handle compiler
changes by not relying on anything based on compiler-specific behavior with
respect to structure alignment. Implement an approach proposed by David Miller:
use an array of const pointers to refer to the individual structures, and export
this pointer array through the linker script rather than the structures per se.
It will consume 32 extra bytes per tracepoint (24 for structure padding and 8
for the pointers), but are less likely to break due to compiler changes.
History:
commit 7e066fb8 tracepoints: add DECLARE_TRACE() and DEFINE_TRACE()
added the aligned(32) type and variable attribute to the tracepoint structures
to deal with gcc happily aligning statically defined structures on 32-byte
multiples.
One attempt was to use a 8-byte alignment for tracepoint structures by applying
both the variable and type attribute to tracepoint structures definitions and
declarations. It worked fine with gcc 4.5.1, but broke with gcc 4.4.4 and 4.4.5.
The reason is that the "aligned" attribute only specify the _minimum_ alignment
for a structure, leaving both the compiler and the linker free to align on
larger multiples. Because tracepoint.c expects the structures to be placed as an
array within each section, up-alignment cause NULL-pointer exceptions due to the
extra unexpected padding.

unconditionally, but the interrupt line might be masked due to a
threaded oneshot handler in progress. Unmasking the line in that case
can lead to interrupt storms. Observed on PREEMPT_RT.

Passing nowatchdog to kernel disables 2 things: creation of
watchdog threads AND initialization of percpu watchdog_hrtimer.
As hrtimers are initialized only at boot it's not possible to
enable watchdog later - for me all watchdog threads started to
eat 100% of CPU time, but they could just crash.
Additionally, even if these threads would start properly,
watchdog_disable_all_cpus was guarded by no_watchdog check, so
you couldn't disable watchdog.
To fix this, remove no_watchdog variable and use already
existing watchdog_enabled variable.

Commit 927c7a9e92c4 ("perf: Fix race in callchains") introduced
a mismatch in the sizing of struct callchain_cpus_entries.
nr_cpu_ids must be used instead of num_possible_cpus(), or we
might get out of bound memory accesses on some machines.

processes, such processes are not able to read or set their own limits.
This commit changes this by assuming that process can always read/change
its own limits.

load averages
The delta in clock_task is a more fair attribution of how much time a tg has
been contributing load to the current cpu.
While not really important it also means we're more in sync (by magnitude)
with respect to periodic updates (since __update_curr deltas are clock_task
based).

Since updates are against an entity's queuing cfs_rq it's not possible to
enter update_cfs_{shares,load} with a NULL cfs_rq. (Indeed, update_cfs_load
would crash prior to the check if we did anyway since we load is examined
during the initializers).
Also, in the update_cfs_load case there's no point
in maintaining averages for rq->cfs_rq since we don't perform shares
distribution at that level -- NULL check is replaced accordingly.
Thanks to Dan Carpenter for pointing out the deference before NULL check.

While care is taken around the zero-point in effective_load to not exceed
the instantaneous rq->weight, it's still possible (e.g. using wake_idx != 0)
for (load + effective_load) to underflow.
In this case the comparing the unsigned values can result in incorrect balanced
decisions.

Currently sysrq_enabled and __sysrq_enabled are initialised separately
and inconsistently, leading to sysrq being actually enabled by reported
as not enabled in sysfs. The first change to the sysfs configurable
synchronises these two:
static int __read_mostly sysrq_enabled = 1;
static int __sysrq_enabled;
Add a common define to carry the default for these preventing them becoming
out of sync again. Default this to 1 to mirror previous behaviour.

The -rt patches change the console_semaphore to console_mutex. As a
result, a quite large chunk of the patches changes all
acquire/release_console_sem() to acquire/release_console_mutex()
This commit makes things use more neutral function names which dont make
implications about the underlying lock.
The only real change is the return value of console_trylock which is
inverted from try_acquire_console_sem()
This patch also paves the way to switching console_sem from a semaphore to
a mutex.

In theory, almost every user of task->child->perf_event_ctxp[]
is wrong. find_get_context() can install the new context at any
moment, we need read_barrier_depends().
dbe08d82ce3967ccdf459f7951d02589cf967300 "perf: Fix
find_get_context() vs perf_event_exit_task() race" added
rcu_dereference() into perf_event_exit_task_context() to make
the precedent, but this makes __rcu_dereference_check() unhappy.
Use rcu_dereference_raw() to shut up the warning.

Lockdep spotted:
loop_1b_instruc/1899 is trying to acquire lock:
(event_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff810e1908>] perf_trace_init+0x3b/0x2f7
but task is already holding lock:
(&ctx->mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff810eb45b>] perf_event_init_context+0xc0/0x218
which lock already depends on the new lock.
the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:
-> #3 (&ctx->mutex){+.+.+.}:
-> #2 (cpu_hotplug.lock){+.+.+.}:
-> #1 (module_mutex){+.+...}:
-> #0 (event_mutex){+.+.+.}:
But because the deadlock would be cpuhotplug (cpu-event) vs fork
(task-event) it cannot, in fact, happen. We can annotate this by giving the
perf_event_context used for the cpuctx a different lock class from those
used by tasks.

perf_event_init_task() should clear child->perf_event_ctxp[]
before anything else. Otherwise, if
perf_event_init_context(perf_hw_context) fails,
perf_event_free_task() can free perf_event_ctxp[perf_sw_context]
copied from parent->perf_event_ctxp[] by dup_task_struct().
Also move the initialization of perf_event_mutex and
perf_event_list from perf_event_init_context() to
perf_event_init_context().

find_get_context() must not install the new perf_event_context
if the task has already passed perf_event_exit_task().
If nothing else, this means the memory leak. Initially
ctx->refcount == 2, it is supposed that
perf_event_exit_task_context() should participate and do the
necessary put_ctx().
find_lively_task_by_vpid() checks PF_EXITING but this buys
nothing, by the time we call find_get_context() this task can be
already dead. To the point, cmpxchg() can succeed when the task
has already done the last schedule().
Change find_get_context() to populate task->perf_event_ctxp[]
under task->perf_event_mutex, this way we can trust PF_EXITING
because perf_event_exit_task() takes the same mutex.
Also, change perf_event_exit_task_context() to use
rcu_dereference(). Probably this is not strictly needed, but
with or without this change find_get_context() can race with
setup_new_exec()->perf_event_exit_task(), rcu_dereference()
looks better.

When NOHZ=y and high res timers are disabled (via cmdline or
Kconfig) tick_nohz_switch_to_nohz() will notify the user about
switching into NOHZ mode. Nothing is printed for the case where
HIGH_RES_TIMERS=y. Fix this for the HIGH_RES_TIMERS=y case by
duplicating the printk from the low res NOHZ path in the high
res NOHZ path.
This confused me since I was thinking 'dmesg | grep -i NOHZ' would
tell me if NOHZ was enabled, but if I have hrtimers there is
nothing.

Michael Witten and Christian Kujau reported that the autogroup
scheduling feature hurts interactivity on their UP systems.
It turns out that this is an older bug in the group scheduling code,
and the wider appeal provided by the autogroup feature exposed it
more prominently.
When on UP with FAIR_GROUP_SCHED enabled, tune shares
only affect tg->shares, but is not reflected in
tg->se->load. The reason is that update_cfs_shares()
does nothing on UP.
So introduce update_cfs_shares() for UP && FAIR_GROUP_SCHED.
This issue was found when enable autogroup scheduling was enabled,
but it is an older bug that also exists on cgroup.cpu on UP.

Currently only drivers that are built as modules have their versions
shown in /sys/module/<module_name>/version, but this information might
also be useful for built-in drivers as well. This especially important
for drivers that do not define any parameters - such drivers, if
built-in, are completely invisible from userspace.
This patch changes MODULE_VERSION() macro so that in case when we are
compiling built-in module, version information is stored in a separate
section. Kernel then uses this data to create 'version' sysfs attribute
in the same fashion it creates attributes for module parameters.

Currently, the lockdep annotation in flush_work() requires exclusive
access on the workqueue the target work is queued on and triggers
warning if a work is trying to flush another work on the same
workqueue; however, this is no longer true as workqueues can now
execute multiple works concurrently.
This patch adds lock_map_acquire_read() and make process_one_work()
hold read access to the workqueue while executing a work and
start_flush_work() check for write access if concurrnecy level is one
or the workqueue has a rescuer (as only one execution resource - the
rescuer - is guaranteed to be available under memory pressure), and
read access if higher.
This better represents what's going on and removes spurious lockdep
warnings which are triggered by fake dependency chain created through
flush_work().
* Peter pointed out that flushing another work from a WQ_MEM_RECLAIM
wq breaks forward progress guarantee under memory pressure.
Condition check accordingly updated.

on_each_cpu() can be done safely while IRQ is disabled during

During early boot, local IRQ is disabled until IRQ subsystem is
properly initialized. During this time, no one should enable
local IRQ and some operations which usually are not allowed with
IRQ disabled, e.g. operations which might sleep or require
communications with other processors, are allowed.
lockdep tracked this with early_boot_irqs_off/on() callbacks.
As other subsystems need this information too, move it to
init/main.c and make it generally available. While at it,
toggle the boolean to early_boot_irqs_disabled instead of
enabled so that it can be initialized with %false and %true
indicates the exceptional condition.
