5f46990787 cgroup: update the meaning of cftype->max_write_len
cftype->max_write_len is used to extend the maximum size of writes.
It's interpreted in such a way that the actual maximum size is one
less than the specified value.  The default size is defined by
CGROUP_LOCAL_BUFFER_SIZE.  Its interpretation is quite confusing - its
value is decremented by 1 and then compared for equality with max
size, which means that the actual default size is
CGROUP_LOCAL_BUFFER_SIZE - 2, which is 62 chars.

There's no point in having a limit that low.  Update its definition so
that it means the actual string length sans termination and anything
below PAGE_SIZE-1 is treated as PAGE_SIZE-1.

.max_write_len for "release_agent" is updated to PATH_MAX-1 and
cgroup_release_agent_write() is updated so that the redundant strlen()
check is removed and it uses strlcpy() instead of strcpy().
.max_write_len initializations in blk-throttle.c and cfq-iosched.c are
no longer necessary and removed.  The one in cpuset is kept unchanged
as it's an approximated value to begin with.

This will also make transition to kernfs smoother.

de00ffa56e cgroup: make cgroup_subsys->base_cftypes use cgroup_add_cftypes()
Currently, cgroup_subsys->base_cftypes registration is different from
dynamic cftypes registartion.  Instead of going through
cgroup_add_cftypes(), cgroup_init_subsys() invokes
cgroup_init_cftsets() which makes use of cgroup_subsys->base_cftset
which doesn't involve dynamic allocation.

While avoiding dynamic allocation is somewhat nice, having two
separate paths for cftypes registration is nasty, especially as we're
planning to add more operations during cftypes registration.

This patch drops cgroup_init_cftsets() and cgroup_subsys->base_cftset
and registers base_cftypes using cgroup_add_cftypes().  This is done
as a separate step in cgroup_init() instead of a part of
cgroup_init_subsys().  This is because cgroup_init_subsys() can be
called very early during boot when kmalloc() isn't available yet.

8d7e6fb0a1 cgroup: update cgroup name handling
Straightforward updates to cgroup name handling in preparation of
kernfs conversion.

* cgroup_alloc_name() is updated to take const char * isntead of
  dentry * for name source.

* cgroup name formatting is separated out into cgroup_file_name().
  While at it, buffer length protection is added.

8e30e2b8ba cgroup: restructure locking and error handling in cgroup_mount()
cgroup is scheduled to be converted to kernfs.  After conversion,
cgroup_mount() won't use the sget() machinery for finding out existing
super_blocks but instead would do that directly.  It'll search the
existing cgroupfs_roots for a matching one and create a new one iff a
match doesn't exist.  To ease such conversion, this patch restructures
locking and error handling of the function.

cgroup_tree_mutex and cgroup_mutex are grabbed from the get-go and
held until return.  For now, due to the way vfs locks nest outside
cgroup mutexes, the two cgroup mutexes are temporarily dropped across
sget() and inode mutex locking, which looks quite ridiculous; however,
these will be removed through kernfs conversion and structuring the
code this way makes the conversion less painful.

The error goto labels are consolidated to two.  This looks unwieldy
now but the next patch will factor out creation of new root into a
separate function with accompanying error handling and it'll look a
lot better.

4ac0601744 cgroup: release cgroup_mutex over file removals
Now that cftypes and all tree modification operations are protected by
cgroup_tree_mutex, we can drop cgroup_mutex while deleting files and
directories.  Drop cgroup_mutex over removals.

This doesn't make any noticeable difference now but is to help kernfs
conversion.  In kernfs, removals are sync points which drain in-flight
operations as those operations would grab cgroup_mutex, trying to
delete under cgroup_mutex would deadlock.  This can be resolved by
just holding the outer cgroup_tree_mutex which nests outside both
kernfs active reference and cgroup_mutex.

ace2bee813 cgroup: introduce cgroup_tree_mutex
Currently cgroup uses combination of inode->i_mutex'es and
cgroup_mutex for synchronization.  With the scheduled kernfs
conversion, i_mutex'es will be removed.  Unfortunately, just using
cgroup_mutex isn't possible.  All kernfs file and syscall operations,
most of which require grabbing cgroup_mutex, will be called with
kernfs active ref held and, if we try to perform kernfs removals under
cgroup_mutex, it can deadlock as kernfs_remove() tries to drain the
target node.

Let's introduce a new outer mutex, cgroup_tree_mutex, which protects
stuff used during hierarchy changing operations - cftypes and all the
operations which may affect the cgroupfs.  It also covers css
association and iteration.  This allows cgroup_css(), for_each_css()
and other css iterators to be called under cgroup_tree_mutex.  The new
mutex will nest above both kernfs's active ref protection and
cgroup_mutex.  By protecting tree modifications with a separate outer
mutex, we can get rid of the forementioned deadlock condition.

Actual file additions and removals now require cgroup_tree_mutex
instead of cgroup_mutex.  Currently, cgroup_tree_mutex is never used
without cgroup_mutex; however, we'll soon add hierarchy modification
sections which are only protected by cgroup_tree_mutex.  In the
future, we might want to make the locking more granular by better
splitting the coverages of the two mutexes.  For now, this should do.

v2: Rebased on top of 0ab02ca8f8 ("cgroup: protect modifications to
    cgroup_idr with cgroup_mutex").

5a17f543ed cgroup: improve css_from_dir() into css_tryget_from_dir()
css_from_dir() returns the matching css (cgroup_subsys_state) given a
dentry and subsystem.  The function doesn't pin the css before
returning and requires the caller to be holding RCU read lock or
cgroup_mutex and handling pinning on the caller side.

Given that users of the function are likely to want to pin the
returned css (both existing users do) and that getting and putting
css's are very cheap, there's no reason for the interface to be tricky
like this.

Rename css_from_dir() to css_tryget_from_dir() and make it try to pin
the found css and return it only if pinning succeeded.  The callers
are updated so that they no longer do RCU locking and pinning around
the function and just use the returned css.

This will also ease converting cgroup to kernfs.

It's because allocating/removing cgroup ID is not properly synchronized.

The bug was introduced when we converted cgroup_ida to cgroup_idr.
While synchronization is already done inside ida_simple_{get,remove}(),
users are responsible for concurrent calls to idr_{alloc,remove}().

cgroup_root_mutex was added to avoid deadlock involving namespace_sem

limited usefulness.  The previous patch made cgroup_show_options() not

69e943b7d3 cgroup: update locking in cgroup_show_options()
cgroup_show_options() grabs cgroup_root_mutex to protect the options
changing while printing; however, holding root_mutex or not doesn't
really make much difference for the function.  subsys_mask can be
atomically tested and most of the options aren't allowed to change
anyway once mounted.

The only field which needs synchronization is ->release_agent_path.
This patch introduces a dedicated spinlock to synchronize accesses to
the field and drops cgroup_root_mutex locking from
cgroup_show_options().  The next patch will remove cgroup_root_mutex.

073219e995 cgroup: clean up cgroup_subsys names and initialization
cgroup_subsys is a bit messier than it needs to be.

* The name of a subsys can be different from its internal identifier
  defined in cgroup_subsys.h.  Most subsystems use the matching name
  but three - cpu, memory and perf_event - use different ones.

* cgroup_subsys_id enums are postfixed with _subsys_id and each
  cgroup_subsys is postfixed with _subsys.  cgroup.h is widely
  included throughout various subsystems, it doesn't and shouldn't
  have claim on such generic names which don't have any qualifier
  indicating that they belong to cgroup.

* cgroup_subsys->subsys_id should always equal the matching
  cgroup_subsys_id enum; however, we require each controller to
  initialize it and then BUG if they don't match, which is a bit
  silly.

This patch cleans up cgroup_subsys names and initialization by doing
the followings.

* cgroup_subsys_id enums are now postfixed with _cgrp_id, and each
  cgroup_subsys with _cgrp_subsys.

* With the above, renaming subsys identifiers to match the userland
  visible names doesn't cause any naming conflicts.  All non-matching
  identifiers are renamed to match the official names.

  cpu_cgroup -> cpu
  mem_cgroup -> memory
  perf -> perf_event

* controllers no longer need to initialize ->subsys_id and ->name.
  They're generated in cgroup core and set automatically during boot.

* Redundant cgroup_subsys declarations removed.

* While updating BUG_ON()s in cgroup_init_early(), convert them to
  WARN()s.  BUGging that early during boot is stupid - the kernel
  can't print anything, even through serial console and the trap
  handler doesn't even link stack frame properly for back-tracing.

This patch doesn't introduce any behavior changes.

3ed80a62bf cgroup: drop module support
With module supported dropped from net_prio, no controller is using
cgroup module support.  None of actual resource controllers can be
built as a module and we aren't gonna add new controllers which don't
control resources.  This patch drops module support from cgroup.

* cgroup_[un]load_subsys() and cgroup_subsys->module removed.

* As there's no point in distinguishing IS_BUILTIN() and IS_MODULE(),
  cgroup_subsys.h now uses IS_ENABLED() directly.

* enum cgroup_subsys_id now exactly matches the list of enabled
  controllers as ordered in cgroup_subsys.h.

* cgroup_subsys[] is now a contiguously occupied array.  Size
  specification is no longer necessary and dropped.

* for_each_builtin_subsys() is removed and for_each_subsys() is
  updated to not require any locking.

* module ref handling is removed from rebind_subsystems().

* Module related comments dropped.

48573a8933 cgroup: fix locking in cgroup_cfts_commit()
cgroup_cfts_commit() walks the cgroup hierarchy that the target
subsystem is attached to and tries to apply the file changes.  Due to
the convolution with inode locking, it can't keep cgroup_mutex locked
while iterating.  It currently holds only RCU read lock around the
actual iteration and then pins the found cgroup using dget().

Unfortunately, this is incorrect.  Although the iteration does check
cgroup_is_dead() before invoking dget(), there's nothing which
prevents the dentry from going away inbetween.  Note that this is
different from the usual css iterations where css_tryget() is used to
pin the css - css_tryget() tests whether the css can be pinned and
fails if not.

The problem can be solved by simply holding cgroup_mutex instead of
RCU read lock around the iteration, which actually reduces LOC.

ab3f5faa62 cgroup: use an ordered workqueue for cgroup destruction
Sometimes the cleanup after memcg hierarchy testing gets stuck in
mem_cgroup_reparent_charges(), unable to bring non-kmem usage down to 0.

There may turn out to be several causes, but a major cause is this: the
workitem to offline parent can get run before workitem to offline child;
parent's mem_cgroup_reparent_charges() circles around waiting for the
child's pages to be reparented to its lrus, but it's holding cgroup_mutex
which prevents the child from reaching its mem_cgroup_reparent_charges().

Just use an ordered workqueue for cgroup_destroy_wq.

tj: Committing as the temporary fix until the reverse dependency can
    be removed from memcg.  Comment updated accordingly.

  various issues pushed it to this release instead.  The pull request
  contains:

   - Various smaller blk-mq fixes from different folks.  Nothing major
     here, just minor fixes and cleanups.

   - Fix for a memory leak in the error path in the block ioctl code
     from Christian Engelmayer.

   - Header export fix from CaiZhiyong.

   - Finally the immutable biovec changes from Kent Overstreet.  This
     enables some nice future work on making arbitrarily sized bios
     possible, and splitting more efficient.  Related fixes to immutable
     bio_vecs:

        - dm-cache immutable fixup from Mike Snitzer.
        - btrfs immutable fixup from Muthu Kumar.

  - bio-integrity fix from Nic Bellinger, which is also going to stable"

270750dbc1 hung_task: Display every hung task warning
When khungtaskd detects hung tasks, it prints out
backtraces from a number of those tasks.

Limiting the number of backtraces being printed
out can result in the user not seeing the information
necessary to debug the issue. The hung_task_warnings
sysctl controls this feature.

This patch makes it possible for hung_task_warnings
to accept a special value to print an unlimited
number of backtraces when khungtaskd detects hung
tasks.

The special value is -1. To use this value it is
necessary to change types from ulong to int.

a8d4b8345e introduce __fcheck_files() to fix rcu_dereference_check_fdtable(), kill rcu_my_thread_group_empty()
rcu_dereference_check_fdtable() looks very wrong,

1. rcu_my_thread_group_empty() was added by 844b9a8707 "vfs: fix
   RCU-lockdep false positive due to /proc" but it doesn't really
   fix the problem. A CLONE_THREAD (without CLONE_FILES) task can
   hit the same race with get_files_struct().

   And otoh rcu_my_thread_group_empty() can suppress the correct
   warning if the caller is the CLONE_FILES (without CLONE_THREAD)
   task.

2. files->count == 1 check is not really right too. Even if this
   files_struct is not shared it is not safe to access it lockless
   unless the caller is the owner.

   Otoh, this check is sub-optimal. files->count == 0 always means
   it is safe to use it lockless even if files != current->files,
   but put_files_struct() has to take rcu_read_lock(). See the next
   patch.

This patch removes the buggy checks and turns fcheck_files() into
__fcheck_files() which uses rcu_dereference_raw(), the "unshared"
callers, fget_light() and fget_raw_light(), can use it to avoid
the warning from RCU-lockdep.

fcheck_files() is trivially reimplemented as rcu_lockdep_assert()
plus __fcheck_files().

Merge tag 'pm+acpi-3.14-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm

Pull ACPI and power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "As far as the number of commits goes, the top spot belongs to ACPI
  this time with cpufreq in the second position and a handful of PM
  core, PNP and cpuidle updates.  They are fixes and cleanups mostly, as
  usual, with a couple of new features in the mix.

  The most visible change is probably that we will create struct
  acpi_device objects (visible in sysfs) for all devices represented in
  the ACPI tables regardless of their status and there will be a new
  sysfs attribute under those objects allowing user space to check that
  status via _STA.

  Consequently, ACPI device eject or generally hot-removal will not
  delete those objects, unless the table containing the corresponding
  namespace nodes is unloaded, which is extremely rare.  Also ACPI
  container hotplug will be handled quite a bit differently and cpufreq
  will support CPU boost ("turbo") generically and not only in the
  acpi-cpufreq driver.

  Specifics:

   - ACPI core changes to make it create a struct acpi_device object for
     every device represented in the ACPI tables during all namespace
     scans regardless of the current status of that device.  In
     accordance with this, ACPI hotplug operations will not delete those
     objects, unless the underlying ACPI tables go away.

   - On top of the above, new sysfs attribute for ACPI device objects

Pull audit update from Eric Paris:
 "Again we stayed pretty well contained inside the audit system.
  Venturing out was fixing a couple of function prototypes which were
  inconsistent (didn't hurt anything, but we used the same value as an
  int, uint, u32, and I think even a long in a couple of places).

  We also made a couple of minor changes to when a couple of LSMs called
  the audit system.  We hoped to add aarch64 audit support this go
  round, but it wasn't ready.

  I'm disappearing on vacation on Thursday.  I should have internet
  access, but it'll be spotty.  If anything goes wrong please be sure to
  cc rgb@redhat.com.  He'll make fixing things his top priority"

77019967f0 kdump: fix exported size of vmcoreinfo note
Right now we seem to be exporting the max data size contained inside
vmcoreinfo note.  But this does not include the size of meta data around
vmcore info data.  Like name of the note and starting and ending elf_note.

I think user space expects total size and that size is put in PT_NOTE elf
header.  Things seem to be fine so far because we are not using vmcoreinfo
note to the maximum capacity.  But as it starts filling up, to capacity,
at some point of time, problem will be visible.

I don't think user space will be broken with this change.  So there is no
need to introduce vmcoreinfo2.  This change is safe and backward
compatible.  More explanation on why this change is safe is below.

vmcoreinfo contains information about kernel which user space needs to
know to do things like filtering.  For example, various kernel config
options or information about size or offset of some data structures etc.
All this information is commmunicated to user space with an ELF note
present in ELF /proc/vmcore file.

Currently vmcoreinfo data size is 4096.  With some elf note meta data
around it, actual size is 4132 bytes.  But we are using barely 25% of that
size.  Rest is empty.  So even if we tell user space that size of ELf note
is 4096 and not 4132, nothing will be broken becase after around 1000
bytes, everything is zero anyway.

But once we start filling up the note to the capacity, and not report the
full size of note, bad things will start happening.  Either some data will
be lost or tools will be confused that they did not fine the zero note at
the end.

So I think this change is safe and should not break existing tools.

7984754b99 kexec: add sysctl to disable kexec_load
For general-purpose (i.e.  distro) kernel builds it makes sense to build
with CONFIG_KEXEC to allow end users to choose what kind of things they
want to do with kexec.  However, in the face of trying to lock down a
system with such a kernel, there needs to be a way to disable kexec_load
(much like module loading can be disabled).  Without this, it is too easy
for the root user to modify kernel memory even when CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM
and modules_disabled are set.  With this change, it is still possible to
load an image for use later, then disable kexec_load so the image (or lack
of image) can't be altered.

The intention is for using this in environments where "perfect"
enforcement is hard.  Without a verified boot, along with verified
modules, and along with verified kexec, this is trying to give a system a
better chance to defend itself (or at least grow the window of
discoverability) against attack in the face of a privilege escalation.

In my mind, I consider several boot scenarios:

1) Verified boot of read-only verified root fs loading fd-based
   verification of kexec images.
2) Secure boot of writable root fs loading signed kexec images.
3) Regular boot loading kexec (e.g. kcrash) image early and locking it.
4) Regular boot with no control of kexec image at all.

1 and 2 don't exist yet, but will soon once the verified kexec series has
landed.  4 is the state of things now.  The gap between 2 and 4 is too
large, so this change creates scenario 3, a middle-ground above 4 when 2
and 1 are not possible for a system.
