6d2b0f02f5 connector: fix unsafe usage of ->real_parent
proc_exit_connector() uses ->real_parent lockless. This is not
safe that its parent can go away at any moment, so use RCU to
protect it, and ensure that this task is not released.

b086ff8725 connector: add parent pid and tgid to coredump and exit events
The intention is to get notified of process failures as soon
as possible, before a possible core dumping (which could be very long)
(e.g. in some process-manager). Coredump and exit process events
are perfect for such use cases (see 2b5faa4c55 "connector: Added
coredumping event to the process connector").

The problem is that for now the process-manager cannot know the parent
of a dying process using connectors. This could be useful if the
process-manager should monitor for failures only children of certain
parents, so we could filter the coredump and exit events by parent
process and/or thread ID.

Add parent pid and tgid to coredump and exit process connectors event
data.

8297f2d9ef connector: make cn_proc explicitly non-modular
The Kconfig controlling build of this code is currently:

drivers/connector/Kconfig:config PROC_EVENTS
drivers/connector/Kconfig:      bool "Report process events to userspace"

...meaning that it currently is not being built as a module by anyone.
Lets remove the two modular references, so that when reading the driver
there is no doubt it is builtin-only.

Since module_init translates to device_initcall in the non-modular
case, the init ordering remains unchanged with this commit.

ab8ed95108 connector: fix out-of-order cn_proc netlink message delivery
The proc connector messages include a sequence number, allowing userspace
programs to detect lost messages.  However, performing this detection is
currently more difficult than necessary, since netlink messages can be
delivered to the application out-of-order.  To fix this, leave pre-emption
disabled during cn_netlink_send(), and use GFP_NOWAIT.

The following was written as a test case.  Building the kernel w/ make -j32
proved a reliable way to generate out-of-order cn_proc messages.

int
main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
	static uint32_t last_seq[CPU_SETSIZE], seq;
	int cpu, fd;
	struct sockaddr_nl sa;
	struct __attribute__((aligned(NLMSG_ALIGNTO))) {
		struct nlmsghdr nl_hdr;
		struct __attribute__((__packed__)) {
			struct cn_msg cn_msg;
			struct proc_event cn_proc;
		};
	} rmsg;
	struct __attribute__((aligned(NLMSG_ALIGNTO))) {
		struct nlmsghdr nl_hdr;
		struct __attribute__((__packed__)) {
			struct cn_msg cn_msg;
			enum proc_cn_mcast_op cn_mcast;
		};
	} smsg;

	fd = socket(PF_NETLINK, SOCK_DGRAM, NETLINK_CONNECTOR);
	if (fd < 0) {
		perror("socket");
	}

	sa.nl_family = AF_NETLINK;
	sa.nl_groups = CN_IDX_PROC;
	sa.nl_pid = getpid();
	if (bind(fd, (struct sockaddr *)&sa, sizeof(sa)) < 0) {
		perror("bind");
	}

	memset(&smsg, 0, sizeof(smsg));
	smsg.nl_hdr.nlmsg_len = sizeof(smsg);
	smsg.nl_hdr.nlmsg_pid = getpid();
	smsg.nl_hdr.nlmsg_type = NLMSG_DONE;
	smsg.cn_msg.id.idx = CN_IDX_PROC;
	smsg.cn_msg.id.val = CN_VAL_PROC;
	smsg.cn_msg.len = sizeof(enum proc_cn_mcast_op);
	smsg.cn_mcast = PROC_CN_MCAST_LISTEN;
	if (send(fd, &smsg, sizeof(smsg), 0) != sizeof(smsg)) {
		perror("send");
	}

	while (recv(fd, &rmsg, sizeof(rmsg), 0) == sizeof(rmsg)) {
		cpu = rmsg.cn_proc.cpu;
		if (cpu < 0) {
			continue;
		}
		seq = rmsg.cn_msg.seq;
		if ((last_seq[cpu] != 0) && (seq != last_seq[cpu] + 1)) {
			printf("out-of-order seq=%d on cpu=%d\n", seq, cpu);
		}
		last_seq[cpu] = seq;
	}

	/* NOTREACHED */

	perror("recv");

	return -1;

90f62cf30a net: Use netlink_ns_capable to verify the permisions of netlink messages
It is possible by passing a netlink socket to a more privileged
executable and then to fool that executable into writing to the socket
data that happens to be valid netlink message to do something that
privileged executable did not intend to do.

To keep this from happening replace bare capable and ns_capable calls
with netlink_capable, netlink_net_calls and netlink_ns_capable calls.
Which act the same as the previous calls except they verify that the
opener of the socket had the desired permissions as well.

1ca1a4cf59 connector: improved unaligned access error fix
In af3e095a1f, Erik Jacobsen fixed one type of unaligned access
bug for ia64 by converting a 64-bit write to use put_unaligned().
Unfortunately, since gcc will convert a short memset() to a series
of appropriately-aligned stores, the problem is now visible again
on tilegx, where the memset that zeros out proc_event is converted
to three 64-bit stores, causing an unaligned access panic.

A better fix for the original problem is to ensure that proc_event
is aligned to 8 bytes here.  We can do that relatively easily by
arranging to start the struct cn_msg aligned to 8 bytes and then
offset by 4 bytes.  Doing so means that the immediately following
proc_event structure is then correctly aligned to 8 bytes.

The result is that the memset() stores are now aligned, and as an
added benefit, we can remove the put_unaligned() calls in the code.

2b5faa4c55 connector: Added coredumping event to the process connector
Process connector can now also detect coredumping events.

Main aim of patch is get notified at start of coredumping, instead of
having to wait for it to finish and then being notified through EXIT
event.

Could be used for instance by process-managers that want to get
notified as soon as possible about process failures, and not
necessarily beeing notified after coredump, which could be in the
order of minutes depending on size of coredump, piping and so on.

f786ecba41 connector: add comm change event report to proc connector
Add an event to monitor comm value changes of tasks.  Such an event
becomes vital, if someone desires to control threads of a process in
different manner.

A natural characteristic of threads is its comm value, and helpfully
application developers have an opportunity to change it in runtime.
Reporting about such events via proc connector allows to fine-grain
monitoring and control potentials, for instance a process control daemon
listening to proc connector and following comm value policies can place
specific threads to assigned cgroup partitions.

It might be possible to achieve a pale partial one-shot likeness without
this update, if an application changes comm value of a thread generator
task beforehand, then a new thread is cloned, and after that proc
connector listener gets the fork event and reads new thread's comm value
from procfs stat file, but this change visibly simplifies and extends the
matter.

f701e5b73a connector: add an event for monitoring process tracers
This change adds a procfs connector event, which is emitted on every
successful process tracer attach or detach.

If some process connects to other one, kernelspace connector reports
process id and thread group id of both these involved processes. On
disconnection null process id is returned.

Such an event allows to create a simple automated userspace mechanism
to be aware about processes connecting to others, therefore predefined
process policies can be applied to them if needed.

Note, a detach signal is emitted only in case, if a tracer process
explicitly executes PTRACE_DETACH request. In other cases like tracee
or tracer exit detach event from proc connector is not reported.

5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

02b51df1b0 proc connector: add event for process becoming session leader
The act of a process becoming a session leader is a useful signal to a
supervising init daemon such as Upstart.

While a daemon will normally do this as part of the process of becoming a
daemon, it is rare for its children to do so.  When the children do, it is
nearly always a sign that the child should be considered detached from the
parent and not supervised along with it.

The poster-child example is OpenSSH; the per-login children call setsid()
so that they may control the pty connected to them.  If the primary daemon
dies or is restarted, we do not want to consider the per-login children
and want to respawn the primary daemon without killing the children.

This patch adds a new PROC_SID_EVENT and associated structure to the
proc_event event_data union, it arranges for this to be emitted when the
special PIDTYPE_SID pid is set.

0741241c6b connector: make callback argument type explicit
The connector documentation states that the argument to the callback
function is always a pointer to a struct cn_msg, but rather than encode it
in the API itself, it uses a void pointer everywhere.  This doesn't make
much sense to encode the pointer in documentation as it prevents proper C
type checking from occurring and can easily allow people to use the wrong
pointer type.  So convert the argument type to an explicit struct cn_msg
pointer.

822cfbff2e [PATCH] Process Events: Fix biarch compatibility issue. use __u64 timestamp
Events sent by Process Events Connector from a 64-bit kernel are not binary
compatible with a 32-bit userspace program because the "timestamp" field
(struct timespec) is not arch independent.  This affects the fields that
follow "timestamp" as they will be be off by 8 bytes.

This is a problem for 32-bit userspace programs running with 64-bit kernels
on ppc64, s390, x86-64..  any "biarch" system.

Matt had submitted a different solution to lkml as an RFC earlier.  We have
since switched to a solution recommended by Evgeniy Polyakov.

This patch fixes the problem by changing the timestamp to be a __u64, which
stores the number of nanoseconds.

Tested on a x86_64 system with both 32 bit application and 64 bit
application and on a i386 system.
