96f951edb1 Add #includes needed to permit the removal of asm/system.h
asm/system.h is a cause of circular dependency problems because it contains
commonly used primitive stuff like barrier definitions and uncommonly used
stuff like switch_to() that might require MMU definitions.

asm/system.h has been disintegrated by this point on all arches into the
following common segments:

 (1) asm/barrier.h

     Moved memory barrier definitions here.

 (2) asm/cmpxchg.h

     Moved xchg() and cmpxchg() here.  #included in asm/atomic.h.

 (3) asm/bug.h

     Moved die() and similar here.

 (4) asm/exec.h

     Moved arch_align_stack() here.

 (5) asm/elf.h

     Moved AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH here.

 (6) asm/switch_to.h

     Moved switch_to() here.

12b5da349a tracing: Fix ent_size in trace output
When reading the trace file, the records of each of the per_cpu buffers
are examined to find the next event to print out. At the point of looking
at the event, the size of the event is recorded. But if the first event is
chosen, the other events in the other CPU buffers will reset the event size
that is stored in the iterator descriptor, causing the event size passed to
the output functions to be incorrect.

In most cases this is not a problem, but for the case of stack traces, it
is. With the change to the stack tracing to record a dynamic number of
back traces, the output depends on the size of the entry instead of the
fixed 8 back traces. When the entry size is not correct, the back traces
would not be fully printed.

Note, reading from the per-cpu trace files were not affected.

1b028abc77 sched/rt: Improve pick_next_highest_task_rt()
Avoid extra work by continuing on to the next rt_rq if the highest
prio task in current rt_rq is the same priority as our candidate
task.

More detailed explanation:  if next is not NULL, then we have found a
candidate task, and its priority is next->prio.  Now we are looking
for an even higher priority task in the other rt_rq's.  idx is the
highest priority in the current candidate rt_rq.  In the current 3.3
code, if idx is equal to next->prio, we would start scanning the tasks
in that rt_rq and replace the current candidate task with a task from
that rt_rq.  But the new task would only have a priority that is equal
to our previous candidate task, so we have not advanced our goal of
finding a higher prio task.  So we should avoid the extra work by
continuing on to the next rt_rq if idx is equal to next->prio.

2baab4e904 sched: Fix select_fallback_rq() vs cpu_active/cpu_online
Commit 5fbd036b55 ("sched: Cleanup cpu_active madness"), which was
supposed to finally sort the cpu_active mess, instead uncovered more.

Since CPU_STARTING is ran before setting the cpu online, there's a
(small) window where the cpu has active,!online.

If during this time there's a wakeup of a task that used to reside on
that cpu select_task_rq() will use select_fallback_rq() to compute an
alternative cpu to run on since we find !online.

select_fallback_rq() however will compute the new cpu against
cpu_active, this means that it can return the same cpu it started out
with, the !online one, since that cpu is in fact marked active.

This results in us trying to scheduling a task on an offline cpu and
triggering a WARN in the IPI code.

The solution proposed by Chuansheng Liu of setting cpu_active in
set_cpu_online() is buggy, firstly not all archs actually use
set_cpu_online(), secondly, not all archs call set_cpu_online() with
IRQs disabled, this means we would introduce either the same race or
the race from fd8a7de17 ("x86: cpu-hotplug: Prevent softirq wakeup on
wrong CPU") -- albeit much narrower.

[ By setting online first and active later we have a window of
  online,!active, fresh and bound kthreads have task_cpu() of 0 and
  since cpu0 isn't in tsk_cpus_allowed() we end up in
  select_fallback_rq() which excludes !active, resulting in a reset
  of ->cpus_allowed and the thread running all over the place. ]

The solution is to re-work select_fallback_rq() to require active
_and_ online. This makes the active,!online case work as expected,
OTOH archs running CPU_STARTING after setting online are now
vulnerable to the issue from fd8a7de17 -- these are alpha and
blackfin.

026cee0086 params: <level>_initcall-like kernel parameters
This patch adds a set of macros that can be used to declare
kernel parameters to be parsed _before_ initcalls at a chosen
level are executed.  We rename the now-unused "flags" field of
struct kernel_param as the level.  It's signed, for when we
use this for early params as well, in future.

Linker macro collating init calls had to be modified in order
to add additional symbols between levels that are later used
by the init code to split the calls into blocks.

Pull sysctl updates from Eric Biederman:

 - Rewrite of sysctl for speed and clarity.

   Insert/remove/Lookup in sysctl are all now O(NlogN) operations, and
   are no longer bottlenecks in the process of adding and removing
   network devices.

   sysctl is now focused on being a filesystem instead of system call
   and the code can all be found in fs/proc/proc_sysctl.c.  Hopefully
   this means the code is now approachable.

   Much thanks is owed to Lucian Grinjincu for keeping at this until
   something was found that was usable.

   is fixed.

1cc684ab75 kmod: make __request_module() killable
As Tetsuo Handa pointed out, request_module() can stress the system
while the oom-killed caller sleeps in TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE.

The task T uses "almost all" memory, then it does something which
triggers request_module().  Say, it can simply call sys_socket().  This
in turn needs more memory and leads to OOM.  oom-killer correctly
chooses T and kills it, but this can't help because it sleeps in
TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE and after that oom-killer becomes "disabled" by the
TIF_MEMDIE task T.

Make __request_module() killable.  The only necessary change is that
call_modprobe() should kmalloc argv and module_name, they can't live in
the stack if we use UMH_KILLABLE.  This memory is freed via
call_usermodehelper_freeinfo()->cleanup.

d0bd587a80 usermodehelper: implement UMH_KILLABLE
Implement UMH_KILLABLE, should be used along with UMH_WAIT_EXEC/PROC.
The caller must ensure that subprocess_info->path/etc can not go away
until call_usermodehelper_freeinfo().

call_usermodehelper_exec(UMH_KILLABLE) does
wait_for_completion_killable.  If it fails, it uses
xchg(&sub_info->complete, NULL) to serialize with umh_complete() which
does the same xhcg() to access sub_info->complete.

If call_usermodehelper_exec wins, it can safely return.  umh_complete()
should get NULL and call call_usermodehelper_freeinfo().

Otherwise we know that umh_complete() was already called, in this case
call_usermodehelper_exec() falls back to wait_for_completion() which
should succeed "very soon".

Note: UMH_NO_WAIT == -1 but it obviously should not be used with
UMH_KILLABLE.  We delay the neccessary cleanup to simplify the back
porting.

although this is almost always is wrong by various reasons.

With this patch SEND_SIG_FORCED ignores SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE, like we do if
the signal comes from the ancestor namespace.

This makes the naming in prepare_signal() paths insane, fixed by the
next cleanup.

Note: this only affects SIGKILL/SIGSTOP, but this is enough for
force_sig() abusers.

ee00560c7d ptrace: remove PTRACE_SEIZE_DEVEL bit
PTRACE_SEIZE code is tested and ready for production use, remove the
code which requires special bit in data argument to make PTRACE_SEIZE
work.

Strace team prepares for a new release of strace, and we would like to
ship the code which uses PTRACE_SEIZE, preferably after this change goes
into released kernel.

aa9147c98f ptrace: make PTRACE_SEIZE set ptrace options specified in 'data' parameter
This can be used to close a few corner cases in strace where we get
unwanted racy behavior after attach, but before we have a chance to set
options (the notorious post-execve SIGTRAP comes to mind), and removes
the need to track "did we set opts for this task" state in strace
internals.

While we are at it:

Make it possible to extend SEIZE in the future with more functionality
by passing non-zero 'addr' parameter.  To that end, error out if 'addr'
is non-zero.  PTRACE_ATTACH did not (and still does not) have such
check, and users (strace) do pass garbage there...  let's avoid
repeating this mistake with SEIZE.

Set all task->ptrace bits in one operation - before this change, we were
adding PT_SEIZED and PT_PTRACE_CAP with task->ptrace |= BIT ops.  This
was probably ok (not a bug), but let's be on a safer side.

Changes since v2: use (unsigned long) casts instead of (long) ones, move
PTRACE_SEIZE_DEVEL-related code to separate lines of code.

86b6c1f301 ptrace: simplify PTRACE_foo constants and PTRACE_SETOPTIONS code
Exchange PT_TRACESYSGOOD and PT_PTRACE_CAP bit positions, which makes
PT_option bits contiguous and therefore makes code in
ptrace_setoptions() much simpler.

Every PTRACE_O_TRACEevent is defined to (1 << PTRACE_EVENT_event)
instead of using explicit numeric constants, to ensure we don't mess up
relationship between bit positions and event ids.

PT_EVENT_FLAG_SHIFT was not particularly useful, PT_OPT_FLAG_SHIFT with
value of PT_EVENT_FLAG_SHIFT-1 is easier to use.

PT_TRACE_MASK constant is nuked, the only its use is replaced by
(PTRACE_O_MASK << PT_OPT_FLAG_SHIFT).

8c5cf9e5c5 ptrace: don't modify flags on PTRACE_SETOPTIONS failure
On ptrace(PTRACE_SETOPTIONS, pid, 0, <opts>), we used to set those
option bits which are known, and then fail with -EINVAL if there are
some unknown bits in <opts>.

This is inconsistent with typical error handling, which does not change
any state if input is invalid.

This patch changes PTRACE_SETOPTIONS behavior so that in this case, we
return -EINVAL and don't change any bits in task->ptrace.

It's very unlikely that there is userspace code in the wild which will
be affected by this change: it should have the form

    ptrace(PTRACE_SETOPTIONS, pid, 0, PTRACE_O_BOGUSOPT)

where PTRACE_O_BOGUSOPT is a constant unknown to the kernel.  But kernel
headers, naturally, don't contain any PTRACE_O_BOGUSOPTs, thus the only
way userspace can use one if it defines one itself.  I can't see why
anyone would do such a thing deliberately.

7a05c0f7bb watchdog: make sure the watchdog thread gets CPU on loaded system
If the system is loaded while hotplugging a CPU we might end up with a
bogus hardlockup detection.  This has been seen during LTP pounder test
executed in parallel with hotplug test.

The main problem is that enable_watchdog (called when CPU is brought up)
registers perf event which periodically checks per-cpu counter
(hrtimer_interrupts), updated from a hrtimer callback, but the hrtimer
is fired from the kernel thread.

This means that while we already do check for the hard lockup the kernel
thread might be sitting on the runqueue with zillions of tasks so there
is nobody to update the value we rely on and so we KABOOM.

Let's fix this by boosting the watchdog thread priority before we wake
it up rather than when it's already running.  This still doesn't handle
a case where we have the same amount of high prio FIFO tasks but that
doesn't seem to be common.  The current implementation doesn't handle
that case anyway so this is not worse at least.

Unfortunately, we cannot start perf counter from the watchdog thread
because we could miss a real lock up and also we cannot start the
hrtimer watchdog_enable because we there is no way (at least I don't
know any) to start a hrtimer from a different CPU.

397a21f24d kernel/exit.c: if init dies, log a signal which killed it, if any
I just received another user's pleas for help when their init
mysteriously died.  I again explained that they need to check whether it
died because of bad instruction, a segv, or something else.  Which was
an annoying detour into writing a trivial C program to spawn his init
and print its exit code:

  http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/busybox/2012-January/077172.html

I hear you saying "just test it under /bin/sh".  Well, the crashing init
_was_ /bin/sh.

Which prompted me to make kernel do this first step automatically.  We can
print exit code, which makes it possible to see that death was from e.g.
SIGILL without writing test programs.

ebec18a6d3 prctl: add PR_{SET,GET}_CHILD_SUBREAPER to allow simple process supervision
Userspace service managers/supervisors need to track their started
services.  Many services daemonize by double-forking and get implicitly
re-parented to PID 1.  The service manager will no longer be able to
receive the SIGCHLD signals for them, and is no longer in charge of
reaping the children with wait().  All information about the children is
lost at the moment PID 1 cleans up the re-parented processes.

With this prctl, a service manager process can mark itself as a sort of
'sub-init', able to stay as the parent for all orphaned processes
created by the started services.  All SIGCHLD signals will be delivered
to the service manager.

Receiving SIGCHLD and doing wait() is in cases of a service-manager much
preferred over any possible asynchronous notification about specific
PIDs, because the service manager has full access to the child process
data in /proc and the PID can not be re-used until the wait(), the
service-manager itself is in charge of, has happened.

As a side effect, the relevant parent PID information does not get lost
by a double-fork, which results in a more elaborate process tree and
'ps' output:

before:
  # ps afx
  253 ?        Ss     0:00 /bin/dbus-daemon --system --nofork
  294 ?        Sl     0:00 /usr/libexec/polkit-1/polkitd
  328 ?        S      0:00 /usr/sbin/modem-manager
  608 ?        Sl     0:00 /usr/libexec/colord
  658 ?        Sl     0:00 /usr/libexec/upowerd
  819 ?        Sl     0:00 /usr/libexec/imsettings-daemon
  916 ?        Sl     0:00 /usr/libexec/udisks-daemon
  917 ?        S      0:00  \_ udisks-daemon: not polling any devices

after:
  # ps afx
  294 ?        Ss     0:00 /bin/dbus-daemon --system --nofork
  426 ?        Sl     0:00  \_ /usr/libexec/polkit-1/polkitd
  449 ?        S      0:00  \_ /usr/sbin/modem-manager
  635 ?        Sl     0:00  \_ /usr/libexec/colord
  705 ?        Sl     0:00  \_ /usr/libexec/upowerd
  959 ?        Sl     0:00  \_ /usr/libexec/udisks-daemon
  960 ?        S      0:00  |   \_ udisks-daemon: not polling any devices
  977 ?        Sl     0:00  \_ /usr/libexec/packagekitd

This prctl is orthogonal to PID namespaces.  PID namespaces are isolated
from each other, while a service management process usually requires the
services to live in the same namespace, to be able to talk to each
other.

Users of this will be the systemd per-user instance, which provides
init-like functionality for the user's login session and D-Bus, which
activates bus services on-demand.  Both need init-like capabilities to
be able to properly keep track of the services they start.

Many thanks to Oleg for several rounds of review and insights.

		   ktime_get()
                     seq = req_seqbegin(xtime_lock);

This patch tries to avoid the problem by reverting back to not using
an hrtimer to inject leapseconds, and instead we handle the leapsecond
processing in the second_overflow() function.

The downside to this change is that on systems that support highres
timers, the leap second processing will occur on a HZ tick boundary,
(ie: ~1-10ms, depending on HZ)  after the leap second instead of
possibly sooner (~34us in my tests w/ x86_64 lapic).

This patch applies on top of tip/timers/core.

1ba0c1720e kdb: Add message about CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA on failure to install breakpoint
On x86, if CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA is set, one cannot set breakpoints
via KDB.  Apparently this is a well-known problem, as at least one distribution
now ships with both KDB enabled and CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA=y for security reasons.

This patch adds an printk message to the breakpoint failure case,
in order to provide suggestions about how to use the debugger.

b8adde8dde kdb: Avoid using dbg_io_ops until it is initialized
This fixes a bug with setting a breakpoint during kdb initialization
(from kdb_cmds).  Any call to kdb_printf() before the initialization
of the kgdboc serial console driver (which happens much later during
bootup than kdb_init), results in kernel panic due to the use of
dbg_io_ops before it is initialized.

bec4d62ead kgdb,debug_core: add the ability to control the reboot notifier
Sometimes it is desirable to stop the kernel debugger before allowing
a system to reboot either with kdb or kgdb.  This patch adds the
ability to turn the reboot notifier on and off or enter the debugger
and stop kernel execution before rebooting.

It is possible to change the setting after booting the kernel with the
following:

echo 1 > /sys/module/debug_core/parameters/kgdbreboot

It is also possible to change this setting using kdb / kgdb to
manipulate the variable directly.

Using KDB:
   mm kgdbreboot 1

Using gdb:
   set kgdbreboot=1

8f30d41176 KDB: Fix usability issues relating to the 'enter' key.
This fixes the following problems:
1) Typematic-repeat of 'enter' gives warning message
   and leaks make/break if KDB exits. Repeats
   look something like 0x1c 0x1c .... 0x9c
2) Use of 'keypad enter' gives warning message and
   leaks the ENTER break/make code out if KDB exits.
   KP ENTER repeats look someting like 0xe0 0x1c
   0xe0 0x1c ... 0xe0 0x9c.
3) Lag on the order of seconds between "break" and "make" when
   expecting the enter "break" code. Seen under virtualized
   environments such as VMware ESX.

The existing special enter handler tries to glob the enter break code,
but this fails if the other (KP) enter was used, or if there was a key
repeat. It also fails if you mashed some keys along with enter, and
you ended up with a non-enter make or non-enter break code coming
after the enter make code. So first, we modify the handler to handle
these cases. But performing these actions on every enter is annoying
since now you can't hold ENTER down to scroll <more>d messages in
KDB. Since this special behaviour is only necessary to handle the
exiting KDB ('g' + ENTER) without leaking scancodes to the OS.  This
cleanup needs to get executed anytime the kdb_main loop exits.

Tested on QEMU. Set a bp on atkbd.c to verify no scan code was leaked.

converting a spinlock to an rwlock: softlockup in cgroup_mkdir(), whose
get_new_cssid() is waiting for the wlock, while there are 19 tasks using
the rlock in css_get_next() to get on with their memcg workload (in an
artificial test, admittedly).  Yet lib/idr.c was made suitable for RCU
way back: revert that commit, restoring ss->id_lock to a spinlock.

cc9a6c8776 cpuset: mm: reduce large amounts of memory barrier related damage v3
Commit c0ff7453bb ("cpuset,mm: fix no node to alloc memory when
changing cpuset's mems") wins a super prize for the largest number of
memory barriers entered into fast paths for one commit.

[get|put]_mems_allowed is incredibly heavy with pairs of full memory
barriers inserted into a number of hot paths.  This was detected while
investigating at large page allocator slowdown introduced some time
after 2.6.32.  The largest portion of this overhead was shown by
oprofile to be at an mfence introduced by this commit into the page
allocator hot path.

For extra style points, the commit introduced the use of yield() in an
implementation of what looks like a spinning mutex.

This patch replaces the full memory barriers on both read and write
sides with a sequence counter with just read barriers on the fast path
side.  This is much cheaper on some architectures, including x86.  The
main bulk of the patch is the retry logic if the nodemask changes in a
manner that can cause a false failure.

While updating the nodemask, a check is made to see if a false failure
is a risk.  If it is, the sequence number gets bumped and parallel
allocators will briefly stall while the nodemask update takes place.

In a page fault test microbenchmark, oprofile samples from
__alloc_pages_nodemask went from 4.53% of all samples to 1.15%.  The
actual results were

    Total Elapsed Time (seconds)                123.46    120.87

The overall improvement is small but the System CPU time is much
improved and roughly in correlation to what oprofile reported (these
performance figures are without profiling so skew is expected).  The
actual number of page faults is noticeably improved.

For benchmarks like kernel builds, the overall benefit is marginal but
the system CPU time is slightly reduced.

To test the actual bug the commit fixed I opened two terminals.  The
first ran within a cpuset and continually ran a small program that
faulted 100M of anonymous data.  In a second window, the nodemask of the
cpuset was continually randomised in a loop.

Without the commit, the program would fail every so often (usually
within 10 seconds) and obviously with the commit everything worked fine.
With this patch applied, it also worked fine so the fix should be
functionally equivalent.

c207f3a431 Generialize powerpc's irq_host as irq_domain
This branch takes the PowerPC irq_host infrastructure (reverse mapping
 from Linux IRQ numbers to hardware irq numbering), generalizes it,
 renames it to irq_domain, and makes it available to all architectures.
 
 Originally the plan has been to create an all-new irq_domain
 implementation which addresses some of the powerpc shortcomings such
 as not handling 1:1 mappings well, but doing that proved to be far
 more difficult and invasive than generalizing the working code and
 refactoring it in-place.  So, this branch rips out the 'new'
 irq_domain and replaces it with the modified powerpc version (in a
 fully bisectable way of course).  It converts all users over to the
 new API and makes irq_domain selectable on any architecture.
 
 No architecture is forced to enable irq_domain, but the infrastructure
 is required for doing OpenFirmware style irq translations.  It will
 even work on SPARC even though SPARC has it's own mechanism for
 translating irqs at boot time.  MIPS, microblaze, embedded x86 and c6x
 are converted too.
 
 The resulting irq_domain code is probably still too verbose and can be
 optimized more, but that can be done incrementally and is a task for
 follow-on patches.

  as not handling 1:1 mappings well, but doing that proved to be far
  more difficult and invasive than generalizing the working code and
  refactoring it in-place.  So, this branch rips out the 'new'
  irq_domain and replaces it with the modified powerpc version (in a
  fully bisectable way of course).  It converts all users over to the
  new API and makes irq_domain selectable on any architecture.

  No architecture is forced to enable irq_domain, but the infrastructure
  is required for doing OpenFirmware style irq translations.  It will
  even work on SPARC even though SPARC has it's own mechanism for
  translating irqs at boot time.  MIPS, microblaze, embedded x86 and c6x
  are converted too.

  The resulting irq_domain code is probably still too verbose and can be
  optimized more, but that can be done incrementally and is a task for
  follow-on patches."

b6e238dcee exit_signal: fix the "parent has changed security domain" logic
exit_notify() changes ->exit_signal if the parent already did exec.
This doesn't really work, we are not going to send the signal now
if there is another live thread or the exiting task is traced. The
parent can exec before the last dies or the tracer detaches.

Move this check into do_notify_parent() which actually sends the
signal.

The user-visible change is that we do not change ->exit_signal,
and thus the exiting task is still "clone children" for
do_wait()->eligible_child(__WCLONE). Hopefully this is fine, the
current logic is racy anyway.

e636825346 exit_signal: simplify the "we have changed execution domain" logic
exit_notify() checks "tsk->self_exec_id != tsk->parent_exec_id"
to handle the "we have changed execution domain" case.

We can change do_thread() to always set ->exit_signal = SIGCHLD
and remove this check to simplify the code.

We could change setup_new_exec() instead, this looks more logical
because it increments ->self_exec_id. But note that de_thread()
already resets ->exit_signal if it changes the leader, let's keep
both changes close to each other.

Note that we change ->exit_signal lockless, this changes the rules.
Thereafter ->exit_signal is not stable under tasklist but this is
fine, the only possible change is OLDSIG -> SIGCHLD. This can race
with eligible_child() but the race is harmless. We can race with
reparent_leader() which changes our ->exit_signal in parallel, but
it does the same change to SIGCHLD.

The noticeable user-visible change is that the execing task is not
"visible" to do_wait()->eligible_child(__WCLONE) right after exec.
To me this looks more logical, and this is consistent with mt case.

5f8aadd8b9 CLONE_PARENT shouldn't allow to set ->exit_signal
The child must not control its ->exit_signal, it is the parent who
decides which signal the child should use for notification.

This means that CLONE_PARENT should not use "clone_flags & CSIGNAL",
the forking task is the sibling of the new process and their parent
doesn't control exit_signal in this case.

This patch uses ->exit_signal of the forking process, but perhaps
we should simply use SIGCHLD.

We read group_leader->exit_signal lockless, this can race with the
ORIGINAL_SIGNAL -> SIGCHLD transition, but this is fine.

Potentially this change allows to kill self_exec_id/parent_exec_id.

9c2b957db1 Merge branch 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull perf events changes for v3.4 from Ingo Molnar:

 - New "hardware based branch profiling" feature both on the kernel and
   the tooling side, on CPUs that support it.  (modern x86 Intel CPUs
   with the 'LBR' hardware feature currently.)

   This new feature is basically a sophisticated 'magnifying glass' for
   branch execution - something that is pretty difficult to extract from
   regular, function histogram centric profiles.

   The simplest mode is activated via 'perf record -b', and the result
   looks like this in perf report:

	$ perf record -b any_call,u -e cycles:u branchy

	$ perf report -b --sort=symbol
	    52.34%  [.] main                   [.] f1
	    24.04%  [.] f1                     [.] f3
	    23.60%  [.] f1                     [.] f2
	     0.01%  [k] _IO_new_file_xsputn    [k] _IO_file_overflow
	     0.01%  [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal  [k] _IO_new_file_xsputn
	     0.01%  [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal  [k] strchrnul
	     0.01%  [k] __printf               [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal
	     0.01%  [k] main                   [k] __printf

   This output shows from/to branch columns and shows the highest
   percentage (from,to) jump combinations - i.e.  the most likely taken
   branches in the system.  "branches" can also include function calls
   and any other synchronous and asynchronous transitions of the
   instruction pointer that are not 'next instruction' - such as system
   calls, traps, interrupts, etc.

   This feature comes with (hopefully intuitive) flat ascii and TUI
   support in perf report.

 - Various 'perf annotate' visual improvements for us assembly junkies.
   It will now recognize function calls in the TUI and by hitting enter
   you can follow the call (recursively) and back, amongst other
   improvements.

 - Multiple threads/processes recording support in perf record, perf
   stat, perf top - which is activated via a comma-list of PIDs:

	perf top -p 21483,21485
	perf stat -p 21483,21485 -ddd
	perf record -p 21483,21485

 - Support for per UID views, via the --uid paramter to perf top, perf
   report, etc.  For example 'perf top --uid mingo' will only show the
   tasks that I am running, excluding other users, root, etc.

 - Jump label restructurings and improvements - this includes the
   factoring out of the (hopefully much clearer) include/linux/static_key.h
   generic facility:

	struct static_key key = STATIC_KEY_INIT_FALSE;

	...

	if (static_key_false(&key))
	        do unlikely code
	else
	        do likely code

	...
	static_key_slow_inc();
	...
	static_key_slow_inc();
	...

   The static_key_false() branch will be generated into the code with as
   little impact to the likely code path as possible.  the
   static_key_slow_*() APIs flip the branch via live kernel code patching.

   This facility can now be used more widely within the kernel to
   micro-optimize hot branches whose likelihood matches the static-key
   usage and fast/slow cost patterns.

 - SW function tracer improvements: perf support and filtering support.

 - Various hardenings of the perf.data ABI, to make older perf.data's
   smoother on newer tool versions, to make new features integrate more
   smoothly, to support cross-endian recording/analyzing workflows
   better, etc.

 - Restructuring of the kprobes code, the splitting out of 'optprobes',
   and a corner case bugfix.

 - Allow the tracing of kernel console output (printk).

 - Improvements/fixes to user-space RDPMC support, allowing user-space
   self-profiling code to extract PMU counts without performing any
   system calls, while playing nice with the kernel side.

 - 'perf bench' improvements

 - ... and lots of internal restructurings, cleanups and fixes that made
   these features possible.  And, as usual this list is incomplete as
   there were also lots of other improvements

e04268b0ef genirq: Remove paranoid warnons and bogus fixups
Alexander pointed out that the warnons in the regular exit path are
bogus and the thread_mask one actually could be triggered when
__setup_irq() hands out that thread_mask again after __free_irq()
dropped irq_desc->lock.

Thinking more about it, neither IRQTF_RUNTHREAD nor the bit in
thread_mask can be set as this is the regular exit path. We come here
due to:
	__free_irq()
	   remove action from desc
	   synchronize_irq()
	   kthread_stop()

So synchronize_irq() makes sure that the thread finished running and
cleaned up both the thread_active count and thread_mask. After that
point nothing can set IRQTF_RUNTHREAD on this action. So the warnons
and the cleanups are pointless.

79f0713d40 prctl: use CAP_SYS_RESOURCE for PR_SET_MM option
CAP_SYS_ADMIN is already overloaded left and right, so to have more
fine-grained access control use CAP_SYS_RESOURCE here.

The CAP_SYS_RESOUCE is chosen because this prctl option allows a current
process to adjust some fields of memory map descriptor which rather
represents what the process owns: pointers to code, data, stack
segments, command line, auxiliary vector data and etc.

a078c6d0e6 ntp: Fix integer overflow when setting time
'long secs' is passed as divisor to div_s64, which accepts a 32bit
divisor. On 64bit machines that value is trimmed back from 8 bytes
back to 4, causing a divide by zero when the number is bigger than
(1 << 32) - 1 and all 32 lower bits are 0.

Use div64_long() instead.

7140ea1980 genirq: Flush the irq thread on synchronization
The current implementation does not always flush the threaded handler
when disabling the irq. In case the irq handler was called, but the
threaded handler hasn't started running yet, the interrupt will be
flagged as pending, and the handler will not run. This implementation
has some issues:

First, if the interrupt is a wake source and flagged as pending, the
system will not be able to suspend.

Second, when quickly disabling and re-enabling the irq, the threaded
handler might continue to run after the irq is re-enabled without the
irq handler being called first. This might be an unexpected behavior.

In addition, it might be counter-intuitive that the threaded handler
will not be called even though the irq handler was called and returned
IRQ_WAKE_THREAD.

Fix this by always waiting for the threaded handler to complete in
synchronize_irq().

[ tglx: Massaged comments, added WARN_ONs and the missing
  	IRQTF_RUNTHREAD check in exit_irq_thread() ]

2dc9b5dbde padata: Fix race on sequence number wrap
When padata_do_parallel() is called from multiple cpus for the same
padata instance, we can get object reordering on sequence number wrap
because testing for sequence number wrap and reseting the sequence
number must happen atomically but is implemented with two atomic
operations. This patch fixes this by converting the sequence number
from atomic_t to an unsigned int and protect the access with a
spin_lock. As a side effect, we get rid of the sequence number wrap
handling because the seqence number wraps back to null now without
the need to do anything.

fa73dc9400 tracing: Fix build breakage without CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS
Today's -next fails to build for me:

  CC      kernel/trace/trace_export.o
In file included from kernel/trace/trace_export.c:197: kernel/trace/trace_entries.h:58: error: 'perf_ftrace_event_register' undeclared here (not in a function)
make[2]: *** [kernel/trace/trace_export.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** [kernel/trace] Error 2

because as of ced390 (ftrace, perf: Add support to use function
tracepoint in perf) perf_trace_event_register() is declared in trace.h
only if CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS is enabled but I don't have that set.

Ensure that we always have a definition of perf_trace_event_register()
by making the definition unconditional.

db6544e007 ftrace: Fix function_graph for archs that test ftrace_trace_function
When CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE is not set, some archs (ARM) test
the variable function_trace_function to determine if it should
call the function tracer. If it is not set to ftrace_stub, then
it will call the function and return, and not call the function
graph tracer.

But some of these archs (ARM) do not have the assembly code
to test if function tracing is enabled or not (quick stop of tracing)
and it calls the helper routine ftrace_test_stop_func() instead.

If function tracer is enabled and then disabled, the variable
ftrace_trace_function is still set to the helper routine
ftrace_test_stop_func(), and not to ftrace_stub. This will
prevent the function graph tracer from ever running.

Various people reported nohz load tracking still being wrecked, but Doug
spotted the actual problem. We fold the nohz remainder in too soon,
causing us to loose samples and under-account.

So instead of playing catch-up up-front, always do a single load-fold
with whatever state we encounter and only then fold the nohz remainder
and play catch-up.
