8467005da3 nsproxy: remove INIT_NSPROXY()
Remove INIT_NSPROXY(), use C99 initializer.
Remove INIT_IPC_NS(), INIT_NET_NS() while I'm at it.

Note: headers trim will be done later, now it's quite pointless because
results will be invalidated by merge window.

13aa9a6b0f pid_ns: zap_pid_ns_processes: use SEND_SIG_NOINFO instead of force_sig()
zap_pid_ns_processes() uses force_sig(SIGKILL) to ensure SIGKILL will be
delivered to sub-namespace inits as well.  This is correct, but we are
going to change force_sig_info() semantics.  See
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15395#c31

We can use send_sig_info(SEND_SIG_NOINFO) instead, since
614c517d7c ("signals: SEND_SIG_NOINFO should
be considered as SI_FROMUSER()") SEND_SIG_NOINFO means "from user" and
therefore send_signal() will get the correct from_ancestor_ns = T flag.

4ab78683c1 cgroups: fix race between userspace and kernelspace
Notify userspace about cgroup removing only after rmdir of cgroup
directory to avoid race between userspace and kernelspace.

eventfd are used to notify about two types of event:
 - control file-specific, like crossing memory threshold;
 - cgroup removing.

To understand what really happen, userspace can check if the cgroup still
exists.  To avoid race beetween userspace and kernelspace we have to
notify userspace about cgroup removing only after rmdir of cgroup
directory.

0dea116876 cgroup: implement eventfd-based generic API for notifications
This patchset introduces eventfd-based API for notifications in cgroups
and implements memory notifications on top of it.

It uses statistics in memory controler to track memory usage.

Non-root cgroup after changes (1 thresholds, never crossed):
	make -j2  507.55 user 64.08s system 193% cpu 4:55.63 total

This patch:

Introduce the write-only file "cgroup.event_control" in every cgroup.

To register new notification handler you need:
- create an eventfd;
- open a control file to be monitored. Callbacks register_event() and
  unregister_event() must be defined for the control file;
- write "<event_fd> <control_fd> <args>" to cgroup.event_control.
  Interpretation of args is defined by control file implementation;

eventfd will be woken up by control file implementation or when the
cgroup is removed.

To unregister notification handler just close eventfd.

If you need notification functionality for a control file you have to
implement callbacks register_event() and unregister_event() in the
struct cftype.

cf5d5941fd cgroups: subsystem module unloading
Provides support for unloading modular subsystems.

This patch adds a new function cgroup_unload_subsys which is to be used
for removing a loaded subsystem during module deletion.  Reference
counting of the subsystems' modules is moved from once (at load time) to
once per attached hierarchy (in parse_cgroupfs_options and
rebind_subsystems) (i.e., 0 or 1).

e6a1105ba0 cgroups: subsystem module loading interface
Add interface between cgroups subsystem management and module loading

This patch implements rudimentary module-loading support for cgroups -
namely, a cgroup_load_subsys (similar to cgroup_init_subsys) for use as a
module initcall, and a struct module pointer in struct cgroup_subsys.

Several functions that might be wanted by modules have had EXPORT_SYMBOL
added to them, but it's unclear exactly which functions want it and which
won't.

aae8aab403 cgroups: revamp subsys array
This patch series provides the ability for cgroup subsystems to be
compiled as modules both within and outside the kernel tree.  This is
mainly useful for classifiers and subsystems that hook into components
that are already modules.  cls_cgroup and blkio-cgroup serve as the
example use cases for this feature.

It provides an interface cgroup_load_subsys() and cgroup_unload_subsys()
which modular subsystems can use to register and depart during runtime.
The net_cls classifier subsystem serves as the example for a subsystem
which can be converted into a module using these changes.

Patch #1 sets up the subsys[] array so its contents can be dynamic as
modules appear and (eventually) disappear.  Iterations over the array are
modified to handle when subsystems are absent, and the dynamic section of
the array is protected by cgroup_mutex.

Patch #2 implements an interface for modules to load subsystems, called
cgroup_load_subsys, similar to cgroup_init_subsys, and adds a module
pointer in struct cgroup_subsys.

Patch #3 adds a mechanism for unloading modular subsystems, which includes
a more advanced rework of the rudimentary reference counting introduced in
patch 2.

Patch #4 modifies the net_cls subsystem, which already had some module
declarations, to be configurable as a module, which also serves as a
simple proof-of-concept.

Part of implementing patches 2 and 4 involved updating css pointers in
each css_set when the module appears or leaves.  In doing this, it was
discovered that css_sets always remain linked to the dummy cgroup,
regardless of whether or not any subsystems are actually bound to it
(i.e., not mounted on an actual hierarchy).  The subsystem loading and
unloading code therefore should keep in mind the special cases where the
added subsystem is the only one in the dummy cgroup (and therefore all
css_sets need to be linked back into it) and where the removed subsys was
the only one in the dummy cgroup (and therefore all css_sets should be
unlinked from it) - however, as all css_sets always stay attached to the
dummy cgroup anyway, these cases are ignored.  Any fix that addresses this
issue should also make sure these cases are addressed in the subsystem
loading and unloading code.

This patch:

Make subsys[] able to be dynamically populated to support modular
subsystems

This patch reworks the way the subsys[] array is used so that subsystems
can register themselves after boot time, and enables the internals of
cgroups to be able to handle when subsystems are not present or may
appear/disappear.

d7b9fff711 cgroup: introduce coalesce css_get() and css_put()
Current css_get() and css_put() increment/decrement css->refcnt one by
one.

This patch add a new function __css_get(), which takes "count" as a arg
and increment the css->refcnt by "count".  And this patch also add a new
arg("count") to __css_put() and change the function to decrement the
css->refcnt by "count".

These coalesce version of __css_get()/__css_put() will be used to improve
performance of memcg's moving charge feature later, where instead of
calling css_get()/css_put() repeatedly, these new functions will be used.

No change is needed for current users of css_get()/css_put().

baed7fc9b5 Add generic sys_ipc wrapper
Add a generic implementation of the ipc demultiplexer syscall.  Except for
s390 and sparc64 all implementations of the sys_ipc are nearly identical.

There are slight differences in the types of the parameters, where mips
and powerpc as the only 64-bit architectures with sys_ipc use unsigned
long for the "third" argument as it gets casted to a pointer later, while
it traditionally is an "int" like most other paramters.  frv goes even
further and uses unsigned long for all parameters execept for "ptr" which
is a pointer type everywhere.  The change from int to unsigned long for
"third" and back to "int" for the others on frv should be fine due to the
in-register calling conventions for syscalls (we already had a similar
issue with the generic sys_ptrace), but I'd prefer to have the arch
maintainers looks over this in details.

Except for that h8300, m68k and m68knommu lack an impplementation of the
semtimedop sub call which this patch adds, and various architectures have
gets used - at least on i386 it seems superflous as the compat code on
x86-64 and ia64 doesn't even bother to implement it.

c9be0a36f9 sysdev: Pass attribute in sysdev_class attributes show/store
Passing the attribute to the low level IO functions allows all kinds
of cleanups, by sharing low level IO code without requiring
an own function for every piece of data.

Also drivers can extend the attributes with own data fields
and use that in the low level function.

Similar to sysdev_attributes and normal attributes.

This is a tree-wide sweep, converting everything in one go.

No functional changes in this patch other than passing the new
argument everywhere.

Tested on x86, the non x86 parts are uncompiled.

8d9032bbe4 elf coredump: add extended numbering support
The current ELF dumper implementation can produce broken corefiles if
program headers exceed 65535.  This number is determined by the number of
vmas which the process have.  In particular, some extreme programs may use
more than 65535 vmas.  (If you google max_map_count, you can find some
users facing this problem.) This kind of program never be able to generate
correct coredumps.

This patch implements ``extended numbering'' that uses sh_info field of
the first section header instead of e_phnum field in order to represent
upto 4294967295 vmas.

This is supported by
AMD64-ABI(http://www.x86-64.org/documentation.html) and
Solaris(http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/817-1984/).
Of course, we are preparing patches for gdb and binutils.

order to reduce a range of modification.

tasklist_lock does protect the task and its pid, it can't go away.  The
problem is that find_pid_ns() itself is unsafe without rcu lock, it can
race with copy_process()->free_pid(any_pid).

Protecting copy_process()->free_pid(any_pid) with tasklist_lock would make
it possible to call find_task_by_pid_ns() under tasklist safely, but we
don't do so because we are trying to get rid of the read_lock sites of
tasklist_lock.

8aeee85a29 panic: fix panic_timeout accuracy when running on a hypervisor
I've had some complaints about panic_timeout being wildly innacurate on
shared processor PowerPC partitions (a 3 minute panic_timeout taking 30
minutes).

The problem is we loop on mdelay(1) and with a 1ms in 10ms hypervisor
timeslice each of these will take 10ms (ie 10x) longer.  I expect other
platforms with shared processor hypervisors will see the same issue.

This patch keeps the old behaviour if we have a panic_blink (only keyboard
LEDs right now) and does 1 second mdelays if we don't.

There are quite a few GFP_KERNEL memory allocations made during

the I/O operations they depend on cannot be completed due to the

Avoid this problem by clearing the __GFP_IO and __GFP_FS bits in
gfp_allowed_mask before suspend/hibernation and restoring the original
values of these bits in gfp_allowed_mask durig the subsequent resume.

5beb493052 mm: change anon_vma linking to fix multi-process server scalability issue
The old anon_vma code can lead to scalability issues with heavily forking
workloads.  Specifically, each anon_vma will be shared between the parent
process and all its child processes.

In a workload with 1000 child processes and a VMA with 1000 anonymous
pages per process that get COWed, this leads to a system with a million
anonymous pages in the same anon_vma, each of which is mapped in just one
of the 1000 processes.  However, the current rmap code needs to walk them
all, leading to O(N) scanning complexity for each page.

This can result in systems where one CPU is walking the page tables of
1000 processes in page_referenced_one, while all other CPUs are stuck on
the anon_vma lock.  This leads to catastrophic failure for a benchmark
like AIM7, where the total number of processes can reach in the tens of
thousands.  Real workloads are still a factor 10 less process intensive
than AIM7, but they are catching up.

This patch changes the way anon_vmas and VMAs are linked, which allows us
to associate multiple anon_vmas with a VMA.  At fork time, each child
process gets its own anon_vmas, in which its COWed pages will be
instantiated.  The parents' anon_vma is also linked to the VMA, because
non-COWed pages could be present in any of the children.

This reduces rmap scanning complexity to O(1) for the pages of the 1000
child processes, with O(N) complexity for at most 1/N pages in the system.
 This reduces the average scanning cost in heavily forking workloads from
O(N) to 2.

The only real complexity in this patch stems from the fact that linking a
VMA to anon_vmas now involves memory allocations.  This means vma_adjust
can fail, if it needs to attach a VMA to anon_vma structures.  This in
turn means error handling needs to be added to the calling functions.

A second source of complexity is that, because there can be multiple
anon_vmas, the anon_vma linking in vma_adjust can no longer be done under
"the" anon_vma lock.  To prevent the rmap code from walking up an
incomplete VMA, this patch introduces the VM_LOCK_RMAP VMA flag.  This bit
flag uses the same slot as the NOMMU VM_MAPPED_COPY, with an ifdef in mm.h
to make sure it is impossible to compile a kernel that needs both symbolic
values for the same bitflag.

Some test results:

Without the anon_vma changes, when AIM7 hits around 9.7k users (on a test
box with 16GB RAM and not quite enough IO), the system ends up running
>99% in system time, with every CPU on the same anon_vma lock in the
pageout code.

With these changes, AIM7 hits the cross-over point around 29.7k users.
This happens with ~99% IO wait time, there never seems to be any spike in
system time.  The anon_vma lock contention appears to be resolved.

34e55232e5 mm: avoid false sharing of mm_counter
Considering the nature of per mm stats, it's the shared object among
threads and can be a cache-miss point in the page fault path.

This patch adds per-thread cache for mm_counter.  RSS value will be
counted into a struct in task_struct and synchronized with mm's one at
events.

Now, in this patch, the event is the number of calls to handle_mm_fault.
Per-thread value is added to mm at each 64 calls.

 rough estimation with small benchmark on parallel thread (2threads) shows
 [before]
     4.5 cache-miss/faults
 [after]
     4.0 cache-miss/faults
 Anyway, the most contended object is mmap_sem if the number of threads grows.

a27341cd5f Prioritize synchronous signals over 'normal' signals
This makes sure that we pick the synchronous signals caused by a
processor fault over any pending regular asynchronous signals sent to
use by [t]kill().

This is not strictly required semantics, but it makes it _much_ easier
for programs like Wine that expect to find the fault information in the
signal stack.

Without this, if a non-synchronous signal gets picked first, the delayed
asynchronous signal will have its signal context pointing to the new
signal invocation, rather than the instruction that caused the SIGSEGV
or SIGBUS in the first place.

This is not all that pretty, and we're discussing making the synchronous
signals more explicit rather than have these kinds of implicit
preferences of SIGSEGV and friends.  See for example

	http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15395

for some of the discussion.  But in the meantime this is a simple and
fairly straightforward work-around, and the whole

	if (x & Y)
		x &= Y;

thing can be compiled into (and gcc does do it) just three instructions:

	movq    %rdx, %rax
	andl    $Y, %eax
	cmovne  %rax, %rdx

so it is at least a simple solution to a subtle issue.
