Eric W. Biederman 92476d7fc0 [PATCH] pidhash: Refactor the pid hash table
Simplifies the code, reduces the need for 4 pid hash tables, and makes the
code more capable.

In the discussions I had with Oleg it was felt that to a large extent the
cleanup itself justified the work.  With struct pid being dynamically
allocated meant we could create the hash table entry when the pid was
allocated and free the hash table entry when the pid was freed.  Instead of
playing with the hash lists when ever a process would attach or detach to a
process.

For myself the fact that it gave what my previous task_ref patch gave for free
with simpler code was a big win.  The problem is that if you hold a reference
to struct task_struct you lock in 10K of low memory.  If you do that in a user
controllable way like /proc does, with an unprivileged but hostile user space
application with typical resource limits of 1000 fds and 100 processes I can
trigger the OOM killer by consuming all of low memory with task structs, on a
machine wight 1GB of low memory.

If I instead hold a reference to struct pid which holds a pointer to my
task_struct, I don't suffer from that problem because struct pid is 2 orders
of magnitude smaller.  In fact struct pid is small enough that most other
kernel data structures dwarf it, so simply limiting the number of referring
data structures is enough to prevent exhaustion of low memory.

This splits the current struct pid into two structures, struct pid and struct
pid_link, and reduces our number of hash tables from PIDTYPE_MAX to just one.
struct pid_link is the per process linkage into the hash tables and lives in
struct task_struct.  struct pid is given an indepedent lifetime, and holds
pointers to each of the pid types.

The independent life of struct pid simplifies attach_pid, and detach_pid,
because we are always manipulating the list of pids and not the hash table.
In addition in giving struct pid an indpendent life it makes the concept much
more powerful.

Kernel data structures can now embed a struct pid * instead of a pid_t and
not suffer from pid wrap around problems or from keeping unnecessarily
large amounts of memory allocated.

*
* pid-structures are backing objects for tasks sharing a given ID to chain
* against. There is very little to them aside from hashing them and
* parking tasks using given ID's on a list.
*
* The hash is always changed with the tasklist_lock write-acquired,
* and the hash is only accessed with the tasklist_lock at least
* read-acquired, so there's no additional SMP locking needed here.
*
* We have a list of bitmap pages, which bitmaps represent the PID space.
* Allocating and freeing PIDs is completely lockless. The worst-case
* allocation scenario when all but one out of 1 million PIDs possible are
* allocated already: the scanning of 32 list entries and at most PAGE_SIZE
* bytes. The typical fastpath is a single successful setbit. Freeing is O(1).
