cee58483cf time: Move ktime_t overflow checking into timespec_valid_strict
Andreas Bombe reported that the added ktime_t overflow checking added to
timespec_valid in commit 4e8b14526c ("time: Improve sanity checking of
timekeeping inputs") was causing problems with X.org because it caused
timeouts larger then KTIME_T to be invalid.

Previously, these large timeouts would be clamped to KTIME_MAX and would
never expire, which is valid.

This patch splits the ktime_t overflow checking into a new
timespec_valid_strict function, and converts the timekeeping codes
internal checking to use this more strict function.

bf2ac31219 time: Avoid making adjustments if we haven't accumulated anything
If update_wall_time() is called and the current offset isn't large
enough to accumulate, avoid re-calling timekeeping_adjust which may
change the clock freq and can cause 1ns inconsistencies with
CLOCK_REALTIME_COARSE/CLOCK_MONOTONIC_COARSE.

6ea565a9be time: Avoid potential shift overflow with large shift values
Andreas Schwab noticed that the 1 << tk->shift could overflow if the
shift value was greater than 30, since 1 would be a 32bit long on
32bit architectures. This issue was introduced by 1e75fa8be (time:
Condense timekeeper.xtime into xtime_sec)

Use 1ULL instead to ensure we don't overflow on the shift.

It seems commit 4a9d4b024a ("switch fput to task_work_add") re-
introduced the problem addressed in 944be0b224 ("close_files(): add

If a server process with a lot of files (say 2 million tcp sockets) is
killed, we can spend a lot of time in task_work_run() and trigger a soft
lockup.

c7a3a88c93 uprobes: Fix mmap_region()'s mm->mm_rb corruption if uprobe_mmap() fails
This patch fixes:

  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=843640

If mmap_region()->uprobe_mmap() fails, unmap_and_free_vma path
does unmap_region() but does not remove the soon-to-be-freed vma
from rb tree. Actually there are more problems but this is how
William noticed this bug.

Perhaps we could do do_munmap() + return in this case, but in
fact it is simply wrong to abort if uprobe_mmap() fails. Until
at least we move the !UPROBE_COPY_INSN code from
install_breakpoint() to uprobe_register().

For example, uprobe_mmap()->install_breakpoint() can fail if the
probed insn is not supported (remember, uprobe_register()
succeeds if nobody mmaps inode/offset), mmap() should not fail
in this case.

dup_mmap()->uprobe_mmap() is wrong too by the same reason,
fork() can race with uprobe_register() and fail for no reason if
it wins the race and does install_breakpoint() first.

And, if nothing else, both mmap_region() and dup_mmap() return
success if uprobe_mmap() fails. Change them to ignore the error
code from uprobe_mmap().

4e8b14526c time: Improve sanity checking of timekeeping inputs
Unexpected behavior could occur if the time is set to a value large
enough to overflow a 64bit ktime_t (which is something larger then the
year 2262).

Also unexpected behavior could occur if large negative offsets are
injected via adjtimex.

So this patch improves the sanity check timekeeping inputs by
improving the timespec_valid() check, and then makes better use of
timespec_valid() to make sure we don't set the time to an invalid
negative value or one that overflows ktime_t.

Note: This does not protect from setting the time close to overflowing
ktime_t and then letting natural accumulation cause the overflow.

a2140fc0cb audit: fix refcounting in audit-tree
Refcounting of fsnotify_mark in audit tree is broken.  E.g:

                              refcount
create_chunk
  alloc_chunk                 1
  fsnotify_add_mark           2

untag_chunk
  fsnotify_get_mark           3
  fsnotify_destroy_mark
    audit_tree_freeing_mark   2
  fsnotify_put_mark           1
  fsnotify_put_mark           0
  via destroy_list
    fsnotify_mark_destroy    -1

This was reported by various people as triggering Oops when stopping auditd.

We could just remove the put_mark from audit_tree_freeing_mark() but that would
break freeing via inode destruction.  So this patch simply omits a put_mark
after calling destroy_mark or adds a get_mark before.

The additional get_mark is necessary where there's no other put_mark after
fsnotify_destroy_mark() since it assumes that the caller is holding a reference
(or the inode is keeping the mark pinned, not the case here AFAICS).

divide by zero on do_div(temp, (__force u32) total) line, if total is a

a good solution since some do_div() implementations do cast to u32
internally.

a35b6466aa sched, cgroup: Reduce rq->lock hold times for large cgroup hierarchies
Peter Portante reported that for large cgroup hierarchies (and or on
large CPU counts) we get immense lock contention on rq->lock and stuff
stops working properly.

His workload was a ton of processes, each in their own cgroup,
everybody idling except for a sporadic wakeup once every so often.

It was found that:

  schedule()
    idle_balance()
      load_balance()
        local_irq_save()
        double_rq_lock()
        update_h_load()
          walk_tg_tree(tg_load_down)
            tg_load_down()

Results in an entire cgroup hierarchy walk under rq->lock for every
new-idle balance and since new-idle balance isn't throttled this
results in a lot of work while holding the rq->lock.

This patch does two things, it removes the work from under rq->lock
based on the good principle of race and pray which is widely employed
in the load-balancer as a whole. And secondly it throttles the
update_h_load() calculation to max once per jiffy.

I considered excluding update_h_load() for new-idle balance
all-together, but purely relying on regular balance passes to update
this data might not work out under some rare circumstances where the
new-idle busiest isn't the regular busiest for a while (unlikely, but
a nightmare to debug if someone hits it and suffers).

e3756477ae printk: Fix calculation of length used to discard records
While tracking down a weird buffer overflow issue in a program that
looked to be sane, I started double checking the length returned by
syslog(SYSLOG_ACTION_READ_ALL, ...) to make sure it wasn't overflowing
the buffer.

Sure enough, it was.  I saw this in strace:

  11339 syslog(SYSLOG_ACTION_READ_ALL, "<5>[244017.708129] REISERFS (dev"..., 8192) = 8279

It turns out that the loops that calculate how much space the entries
will take when they're copied don't include the newlines and prefixes
that will be included in the final output since prev flags is passed as
zero.

This patch properly accounts for it and fixes the overflow.

Revert commit 45226e9 (NMI watchdog: fix for lockup detector breakage
on resume) which breaks resume from system suspend on my SH7372
Mackerel board (by causing a NULL pointer dereference to happen) and
is generally wrong, because it abuses the CPU hotplug functionality
in a shamelessly blatant way.

The original issue should be addressed through appropriate syscore

1d17d17484 time: Fix adjustment cleanup bug in timekeeping_adjust()
Tetsuo Handa reported that sporadically the system clock starts
counting up too quickly which is enough to confuse the hangcheck
timer to print a bogus stall warning.

Commit 2a8c0883 "time: Move xtime_nsec adjustment underflow handling
timekeeping_adjust" overlooked this exit path:

        } else
                return;

which should really be a proper exit sequence, fixing the bug as a
side effect.

Also make the flow more readable by properly balancing curly
braces.

Round of refactoring and enhancements to irq_domain infrastructure. This
 series starts the process of simplifying irqdomain. The ultimate goal is
 to merge LEGACY, LINEAR and TREE mappings into a single system, but had
 to back off from that after some last minute bugs. Instead it mainly
 reorganizes the code and ensures that the reverse map gets populated
 when the irq is mapped instead of the first time it is looked up.
 
 Merging of the irq_domain types is deferred to v3.7
 
 In other news, this series adds helpers for creating static mappings on

907aed48f6 mm: allow PF_MEMALLOC from softirq context
This is needed to allow network softirq packet processing to make use of
PF_MEMALLOC.

Currently softirq context cannot use PF_MEMALLOC due to it not being
associated with a task, and therefore not having task flags to fiddle with
- thus the gfp to alloc flag mapping ignores the task flags when in
interrupts (hard or soft) context.

Allowing softirqs to make use of PF_MEMALLOC therefore requires some
trickery.  This patch borrows the task flags from whatever process happens
to be preempted by the softirq.  It then modifies the gfp to alloc flags
mapping to not exclude task flags in softirq context, and modify the
softirq code to save, clear and restore the PF_MEMALLOC flag.

The save and clear, ensures the preempted task's PF_MEMALLOC flag doesn't
leak into the softirq.  The restore ensures a softirq's PF_MEMALLOC flag
cannot leak back into the preempted process.  This should be safe due to
the following reasons

Softirqs can run on multiple CPUs sure but the same task should not be
	executing the same softirq code. Neither should the softirq
	handler be preempted by any other softirq handler so the flags
	should not leak to an unrelated softirq.

Softirqs re-enable hardware interrupts in __do_softirq() so can be
	preempted by hardware interrupts so PF_MEMALLOC is inherited
	by the hard IRQ. However, this is similar to a process in
	reclaim being preempted by a hardirq. While PF_MEMALLOC is
	set, gfp_to_alloc_flags() distinguishes between hard and
	soft irqs and avoids giving a hardirq the ALLOC_NO_WATERMARKS
	flag.

If the softirq is deferred to ksoftirq then its flags may be used
        instead of a normal tasks but as the softirq cannot be preempted,
        the PF_MEMALLOC flag does not leak to other code by accident.

9adb62a5df mm/hotplug: correctly setup fallback zonelists when creating new pgdat
When hotadd_new_pgdat() is called to create new pgdat for a new node, a
fallback zonelist should be created for the new node.  There's code to try
to achieve that in hotadd_new_pgdat() as below:

	/*
	 * The node we allocated has no zone fallback lists. For avoiding
	 * to access not-initialized zonelist, build here.
	 */
	mutex_lock(&zonelists_mutex);
	build_all_zonelists(pgdat, NULL);
	mutex_unlock(&zonelists_mutex);

But it doesn't work as expected.  When hotadd_new_pgdat() is called, the
new node is still in offline state because node_set_online(nid) hasn't
been called yet.  And build_all_zonelists() only builds zonelists for
online nodes as:

        for_each_online_node(nid) {
                pg_data_t *pgdat = NODE_DATA(nid);

                build_zonelists(pgdat);
                build_zonelist_cache(pgdat);
        }

Though we hope to create zonelist for the new pgdat, but it doesn't.  So
add a new parameter "pgdat" the build_all_zonelists() to build pgdat for
the new pgdat too.

3965c9ae47 mm: prepare for removal of obsolete /proc/sys/vm/nr_pdflush_threads
Since per-BDI flusher threads were introduced in 2.6, the pdflush
mechanism is not used any more.  But the old interface exported through
/proc/sys/vm/nr_pdflush_threads still exists and is obviously useless.

For back-compatibility, printk warning information and return 2 to notify
the users that the interface is removed.

4e250fdde9 time: Remove all direct references to timekeeper
Ingo noted that the numerous timekeeper.value references made
the timekeeping code ugly and caused many long lines that
had to be broken up. He recommended replacing timekeeper.value
references with tk->value.

This patch provides a local tk value for all top level time
functions and sets it to &timekeeper. Then all timekeeper
access is done via a tk pointer.

6d0ef903e2 time: Clean up offs_real/wall_to_mono and offs_boot/total_sleep_time updates
For performance reasons, we maintain ktime_t based duplicates of
wall_to_monotonic (offs_real) and total_sleep_time (offs_boot).

Since large problems could occur (such as the resume regression
on 3.5-rc7, or the leapsecond hrtimer issue) if these value
pairs were to be inconsistently updated, this patch this cleans
up how we modify these value pairs to ensure we are always
consistent.

As a side-effect this is also more efficient as we only
caulculate the duplicate values when they are changed,
rather then every update_wall_time call.

This also provides WARN_ONs to detect if future changes break
the invariants.

e6dab5ffab perf/trace: Add ability to set a target task for events
A few events are interesting not only for a current task.
For example, sched_stat_* events are interesting for a task
which wakes up. For this reason, it will be good if such
events will be delivered to a target task too.

Now a target task can be set by using __perf_task().

The original idea and a draft patch belongs to Peter Zijlstra.

I need these events for profiling sleep times. sched_switch is used for
getting callchains and sched_stat_* is used for getting time periods.
These events are combined in user space, then it can be analyzed by
perf tools.
