2009-08-18mm: revert "oom: move oom_adj value"KOSAKI Motohiro
The commit 2ff05b2b (oom: move oom_adj value) moveed the oom_adj value to the mm_struct. It was a very good first step for sanitize OOM. However Paul Menage reported the commit makes regression to his job scheduler. Current OOM logic can kill OOM_DISABLED process. Why? His program has the code of similar to the following. ... set_oom_adj(OOM_DISABLE); /* The job scheduler never killed by oom */ ... if (vfork() == 0) { set_oom_adj(0); /* Invoked child can be killed */ execve("foo-bar-cmd"); } .... vfork() parent and child are shared the same mm_struct. then above set_oom_adj(0) doesn't only change oom_adj for vfork() child, it's also change oom_adj for vfork() parent. Then, vfork() parent (job scheduler) lost OOM immune and it was killed. Actually, fork-setting-exec idiom is very frequently used in userland program. We must not break this assumption. Then, this patch revert commit 2ff05b2b and related commit.

2009-08-17net: restore gnet_stats_basic to previous definitionEric Dumazet
In 5e140dfc1fe87eae27846f193086724806b33c7d "net: reorder struct Qdisc for better SMP performance" the definition of struct gnet_stats_basic changed incompatibly, as copies of this struct are shipped to userland via netlink. Restoring old behavior is not welcome, for performance reason. Fix is to use a private structure for kernel, and teach gnet_stats_copy_basic() to convert from kernel to user land, using legacy structure (struct gnet_stats_basic) Based on a report and initial patch from Michael Spang.

2009-08-17Security/SELinux: seperate lsm specific mmap_min_addrEric Paris
Currently SELinux enforcement of controls on the ability to map low memory is determined by the mmap_min_addr tunable. This patch causes SELinux to ignore the tunable and instead use a seperate Kconfig option specific to how much space the LSM should protect. The tunable will now only control the need for CAP_SYS_RAWIO and SELinux permissions will always protect the amount of low memory designated by CONFIG_LSM_MMAP_MIN_ADDR. This allows users who need to disable the mmap_min_addr controls (usual reason being they run WINE as a non-root user) to do so and still have SELinux controls preventing confined domains (like a web server) from being able to map some area of low memory.

2009-08-12NFS: Fix an O_DIRECT Oops...Trond Myklebust
We can't call nfs_readdata_release()/nfs_writedata_release() without first initialising and referencing args.context. Doing so inside nfs_direct_read_schedule_segment()/nfs_direct_write_schedule_segment() causes an Oops. We should rather be calling nfs_readdata_free()/nfs_writedata_free() in those cases. Looking at the O_DIRECT code, the "struct nfs_direct_req" is already referencing the nfs_open_context for us. Since the readdata and writedata structures carry a reference to that, we can simplify things by getting rid of the extra nfs_open_context references, so that we can replace all instances of nfs_readdata_release()/nfs_writedata_release().

2009-08-10perf_counter: Subtract the buffer size field from the event record sizeFrederic Weisbecker
We compute the perf raw sample size by aligning the raw ftrace event size plus the buffer size field itself. We do that instead of aligning only the perf raw sample size, so that we might economize some in some cases. But this buffer size field is not stored in the perf raw sample, we must then substract its size from the buffer once we computed the alignment unless we may get a useless u32 field in the buffer.

2009-08-09perf_counter: Fix/complete ftrace event records samplingFrederic Weisbecker
This patch implements the kernel side support for ftrace event record sampling. A new counter sampling attribute is added: PERF_SAMPLE_TP_RECORD which requests ftrace events record sampling. In this case if a PERF_TYPE_TRACEPOINT counter is active and a tracepoint fires, we emit the tracepoint binary record to the perfcounter event buffer, as a sample. Result, after setting PERF_SAMPLE_TP_RECORD attribute from perf record: perf record -f -F 1 -a -e workqueue:workqueue_execution perf report -D 0x21e18 [0x48]: event: 9 . . ... raw event: size 72 bytes . 0000: 09 00 00 00 01 00 48 00 d0 c7 00 81 ff ff ff ff ......H........ . 0010: 0a 00 00 00 0a 00 00 00 21 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ........!...... . 0020: 2b 00 01 02 0a 00 00 00 0a 00 00 00 65 76 65 6e +...........eve . 0030: 74 73 2f 31 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 0a 00 00 00 ts/1........... . 0040: e0 b1 31 81 ff ff ff ff ....... . 0x21e18 [0x48]: PERF_EVENT_SAMPLE (IP, 1): 10: 0xffffffff8100c7d0 period: 33 The raw ftrace binary record starts at offset 0020.

For that we need to have an instant access to the perf counter attribute. This is a matter of a flag to add in the struct ftrace_event. - Take care of the events recursivity! Don't ever try to record a lock event for example, it seems some locking is used in the profiling fast path and lead to a tracing recursivity.

2009-08-07mm: make set_mempolicy(MPOL_INTERLEAV) N_HIGH_MEMORY awareKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki
At first, init_task's mems_allowed is initialized as this. init_task->mems_allowed == node_state[N_POSSIBLE] And cpuset's top_cpuset mask is initialized as this top_cpuset->mems_allowed = node_state[N_HIGH_MEMORY] Before 2.6.29: policy's mems_allowed is initialized as this. 1. update tasks->mems_allowed by its cpuset->mems_allowed. 2. policy->mems_allowed = nodes_and(tasks->mems_allowed, user's mask) Updating task's mems_allowed in reference to top_cpuset's one. cpuset's mems_allowed is aware of N_HIGH_MEMORY, always. In 2.6.30: After commit 58568d2a8215cb6f55caf2332017d7bdff954e1c ("cpuset,mm: update tasks' mems_allowed in time"), policy's mems_allowed is initialized as this. 1. policy->mems_allowd = nodes_and(task->mems_allowed, user's mask) Here, if task is in top_cpuset, task->mems_allowed is not updated from init's one. Assume user excutes command as #numactrl --interleave=all ,.... policy->mems_allowd = nodes_and(N_POSSIBLE, ALL_SET_MASK) Then, policy's mems_allowd can includes a possible node, which has no pgdat. MPOL's INTERLEAVE just scans nodemask of task->mems_allowd and access this directly. NODE_DATA(nid)->zonelist even if NODE_DATA(nid)==NULL Then, what's we need is making policy->mems_allowed be aware of N_HIGH_MEMORY. This patch does that. But to do so, extra nodemask will be on statck. Because I know cpumask has a new interface of CPUMASK_ALLOC(), I added it to node. This patch stands on old behavior. But I feel this fix itself is just a Band-Aid. But to do fundametal fix, we have to take care of memory hotplug and it takes time. (task->mems_allowd should be N_HIGH_MEMORY, I think.) mpol_set_nodemask() should be aware of N_HIGH_MEMORY and policy's nodemask should be includes only online nodes. In old behavior, this is guaranteed by frequent reference to cpuset's code. Now, most of them are removed and mempolicy has to check it by itself.

2009-08-07vfs: add __destroy_inodeChristoph Hellwig
When we want to tear down an inode that lost the add to the cache race in XFS we must not call into ->destroy_inode because that would delete the inode that won the race from the inode cache radix tree. This patch provides the __destroy_inode helper needed to fix this, the actual fix will be in th next patch. As XFS was the only reason destroy_inode was exported we shift the export to the new __destroy_inode. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Reviewed-by: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@sandeen.net>
2009-08-07vfs: fix inode_init_always calling conventionChristoph Hellwig
Currently inode_init_always calls into ->destroy_inode if the additional initialization fails. That's not only counter-intuitive because inode_init_always did not allocate the inode structure, but in case of XFS it's actively harmful as ->destroy_inode might delete the inode from a radix-tree that has never been added. This in turn might end up deleting the inode for the same inum that has been instanciated by another process and cause lots of cause subtile problems. Also in the case of re-initializing a reclaimable inode in XFS it would free an inode we still want to keep alive.

2009-08-04tty-ldisc: make refcount be atomic_t 'users' countLinus Torvalds
This is pure preparation of changing the ldisc reference counting to be a true refcount that defines the lifetime of the ldisc. But this is a purely syntactic change for now to make the next steps easier. This patch should make no semantic changes at all. But I wanted to make the ldisc refcount be an atomic (I will be touching it without locks soon enough), and I wanted to rename it so that there isn't quite as much confusion between 'ldo->refcount' (ldisk operations refcount) and 'ld->refcount' (ldisc refcount itself) in the same file. So it's now an atomic 'ld->users' count. It still starts at zero, despite having a reference from 'tty->ldisc', but that will change once we turn it into a _real_ refcount.

2009-08-03cfg80211: fix regression on beacon world roaming featureLuis R. Rodriguez
A regression was added through patch a4ed90d6: "cfg80211: respect API on orig_flags on channel for beacon hint" We did indeed respect _orig flags but the intention was not clearly stated in the commit log. This patch fixes firmware issues picked up by iwlwifi when we lift passive scan of beaconing restrictions on channels its EEPROM has been configured to always enable. By doing so though we also disallowed beacon hints on devices registering their wiphy with custom world regulatory domains enabled, this happens to be currently ath5k, ath9k and ar9170. The passive scan and beacon restrictions on those devices would never be lifted even if we did find a beacon and the hardware did support such enhancements when world roaming. Since Johannes indicates iwlwifi firmware cannot be changed to allow beacon hinting we set up a flag now to specifically allow drivers to disable beacon hints for devices which cannot use them. We enable the flag on iwlwifi to disable beacon hints and by default enable it for all other drivers. It should be noted beacon hints lift passive scan flags and beacon restrictions when we receive a beacon from an AP on any 5 GHz non-DFS channels, and channels 12-14 on the 2.4 GHz band. We don't bother with channels 1-11 as those channels are allowed world wide. This should fix world roaming for ath5k, ath9k and ar9170, thereby improving scan time when we receive the first beacon from any AP, and also enabling beaconing operation (AP/IBSS/Mesh) on cards which would otherwise not be allowed to do so. Drivers not using custom regulatory stuff (wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory()) were not affected by this as the orig_flags for the channels would have been cleared upon wiphy registration. I tested this with a world roaming ath5k card. Cc: Jouni Malinen <jouni.malinen@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: Luis R.

This is useful to the boot delay instrumentation (bootchart) app. This patch changes the PERF_EVENT_FORK to be emitted on every clone, and adds PERF_EVENT_EXIT to be emitted on task exit, after the task's counters have been closed.
