Using TIF_FREEZE for freezing worked when there was only single
freezing condition (the PM one); however, now there is also the
cgroup_freezer and single bit flag is getting clumsy.
thaw_processes() is already testing whether cgroup freezing in in
effect to avoid thawing tasks which were frozen by both PM and cgroup
freezers.

This is racy (nothing prevents race against cgroup freezing) and
fragile.  A much simpler way is to test actual freeze conditions from
freezing() - ie. directly test whether PM or cgroup freezing is in
effect.

This patch adds variables to indicate whether and what type of
freezing conditions are in effect and reimplements freezing() such
that it directly tests whether any of the two freezing conditions is
active and the task should freeze.  On fast path, freezing() is still
very cheap - it only tests system_freezing_cnt.

This makes the clumsy dancing aroung TIF_FREEZE unnecessary and
freeze/thaw operations more usual - updating state variables for the
new state and nudging target tasks so that they notice the new state
and comply.  As long as the nudging happens after state update, it's
race-free.

* This allows use of freezing() in freeze_task().  Replace the open
  coded tests with freezing().

* p != current test is added to warning printing conditions in
  try_to_freeze_tasks() failure path.  This is necessary as freezing()
  is now true for the task which initiated freezing too.

-v2: Oleg pointed out that re-freezing FROZEN cgroup could increment
     system_freezing_cnt.  Fixed.

freeze_processes() failure path is rather messy.  Freezing is canceled
for workqueues and tasks which aren't frozen yet but frozen tasks are
left alone and should be thawed by the caller and of course some
callers (xen and kexec) didn't do it.

This patch updates __thaw_task() to handle cancelation correctly and
makes freeze_processes() and freeze_kernel_threads() call
thaw_processes() on failure instead so that the system is fully thawed
on failure.  Unnecessary [suspend_]thaw_processes() calls are removed
from kernel/power/hibernate.c, suspend.c and user.c.

While at it, restructure error checking if clause in suspend_prepare()
to be less weird.

try_to_freeze_tasks() and thaw_processes() use freezable() and
frozen() as preliminary tests before initiating operations on a task.
These are done without any synchronization and hinder with
synchronization cleanup without any real performance benefits.

In try_to_freeze_tasks(), open code self test and move PF_NOFREEZE and
frozen() tests inside freezer_lock in freeze_task().

thaw_processes() can simply drop freezable() test as frozen() test in
__thaw_task() is enough.

Note: This used to be a part of larger patch to fix set_freezable()
      race.  Separated out to satisfy ordering among dependent fixes.

Currently freezing (TIF_FREEZE) and frozen (PF_FROZEN) states are
interlocked - freezing is set to request freeze and when the task
actually freezes, it clears freezing and sets frozen.

This interlocking makes things more complex than necessary - freezing
doesn't mean there's freezing condition in effect and frozen doesn't
match the task actually entering and leaving frozen state (it's
cleared by the thawing task).

This patch makes freezing indicate that freeze condition is in effect.
A task enters and stays frozen if freezing.  This makes PF_FROZEN
manipulation done only by the task itself and prevents wakeup from
__thaw_task() leaking outside of refrigerator.

The only place which needs to tell freezing && !frozen is
try_to_freeze_task() to whine about tasks which don't enter frozen.
It's updated to test the condition explicitly.

With the change, frozen() state my linger after __thaw_task() until
the task wakes up and exits fridge.  This can trigger BUG_ON() in
update_if_frozen().  Work it around by testing freezing() && frozen()
instead of frozen().

-v2: Oleg pointed out missing re-check of freezing() when trying to
     clear FROZEN and possible spurious BUG_ON() trigger in
     update_if_frozen().  Both fixed.

Freezer synchronization is needlessly complicated - it's by no means a
hot path and the priority is staying unintrusive and safe.  This patch
makes it simply use a dedicated lock instead of piggy-backing on
task_lock() and playing with memory barriers.

On the failure path of try_to_freeze_tasks(), locking is moved from it
to cancel_freezing().  This makes the frozen() test racy but the race
here is a non-issue as the warning is printed for tasks which failed
to enter frozen for 20 seconds and race on PF_FROZEN at the last
moment doesn't change anything.

This simplifies freezer implementation and eases further changes
including some race fixes.

thaw_process() now has only internal users - system and cgroup
freezers.  Remove the unnecessary return value, rename, unexport and
collapse __thaw_process() into it.  This will help further updates to
the freezer code.

-v3: oom_kill grew a use of thaw_process() while this patch was
     pending.  Convert it to use __thaw_task() for now.  In the longer

Writeback and thinkpad_acpi have been using thaw_process() to prevent
deadlock between the freezer and kthread_stop(); unfortunately, this
is inherently racy - nothing prevents freezing from happening between
thaw_process() and kthread_stop().

This patch implements kthread_freezable_should_stop() which enters
refrigerator if necessary but is guaranteed to return if
kthread_stop() is invoked.  Both thaw_process() users are converted to
use the new function.

Note that this deadlock condition exists for many of freezable
kthreads.  They need to be converted to use the new should_stop or
freezable workqueue.

There is no reason to export two functions for entering the
refrigerator.  Calling refrigerator() instead of try_to_freeze()
doesn't save anything noticeable or removes any race condition.

* Rename refrigerator() to __refrigerator() and make it return bool
  indicating whether it scheduled out for freezing.

* Update try_to_freeze() to return bool and relay the return value of
  __refrigerator() if freezing().

* Convert all refrigerator() users to try_to_freeze().

* Update documentation accordingly.

* While at it, add might_sleep() to try_to_freeze().

refrigerator() saves current->state before entering frozen state and
restores it before returning using __set_current_state(); however,
this is racy, for example, please consider the following sequence.

	set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE);
	try_to_freeze();
	if (kthread_should_stop())
		break;
	schedule();

If kthread_stop() races with ->state restoration, the restoration can
restore ->state to TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE after kthread_stop() sets it to
TASK_RUNNING but kthread_should_stop() may still see zero
->should_stop because there's no memory barrier between restoring
TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE and kthread_should_stop() test.

This isn't restricted to kthread_should_stop().  current->state is
often used in memory barrier based synchronization and silently
restoring it w/o mb breaks them.

Use set_current_state() instead.

PM / Freezer: Revert 27920651 "PM / Freezer: Make fake_signal_wake_up() wake TASK_KILLABLE tasks too"

Commit 27920651 "PM / Freezer: Make fake_signal_wake_up() wake
TASK_KILLABLE tasks too" updated fake_signal_wake_up() used by freezer
to wake up KILLABLE tasks.  Sending unsolicited wakeups to tasks in
killable sleep is dangerous as there are code paths which depend on
tasks not waking up spuriously from KILLABLE sleep.

For example. sys_read() or page can sleep in TASK_KILLABLE assuming
that wait/down/whatever _killable can only fail if we can not return
to the usermode.  TASK_TRACED is another obvious example.

The previous patch updated wait_event_freezekillable() such that it
doesn't depend on the spurious wakeup.  This patch reverts the
offending commit.

Note that the spurious KILLABLE wakeup had other implicit effects in
KILLABLE sleeps in nfs and cifs and those will need further updates to
regain freezekillable behavior.

TASK_KILLABLE is often used to put tasks to sleep for quite some time.
One of the most common uses is to put tasks to sleep while waiting for
replies from a server on a networked filesystem (such as CIFS or NFS).

Unfortunately, fake_signal_wake_up does not currently wake up tasks
that are sleeping in TASK_KILLABLE state. This means that even if the
code were in place to allow them to freeze while in this sleep, it
wouldn't work anyway.

This patch changes this function to wake tasks in this state as well.
This should be harmless -- if the code doing the sleeping doesn't have
handling to deal with freezer events, it should just go back to sleep.
If it does, then this will allow that code to do the right thing.

After calling freeze_task(), try_to_freeze_tasks() see whether the
task is stopped or traced and if so, considers it to be frozen;
however, nothing guarantees that either the task being frozen sees
TIF_FREEZE or the freezer sees TASK_STOPPED -> TASK_RUNNING
transition.  The task being frozen may wake up and not see TIF_FREEZE
while the freezer fails to notice the transition and believes the task
is still stopped.

This patch fixes the race by making freeze_task() always go through
fake_signal_wake_up() for applicable tasks.  The function goes through
the target task's scheduler lock and thus guarantees that either the
target sees TIF_FREEZE or try_to_freeze_task() sees TASK_RUNNING.

commit e3c8ca83 (sched: do not count frozen tasks toward load) broke
the nr_uninterruptible accounting on freeze/thaw. On freeze the task
is excluded from accounting with a check for (task->flags &
PF_FROZEN), but that flag is cleared before the task is thawed. So
while we prevent that the task with state TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE
is accounted to nr_uninterruptible on freeze we decrement
nr_uninterruptible on thaw.

Use a separate flag which is handled by the freezing task itself. Set
it before calling the scheduler with TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE state and
clear it after we return from frozen state.

This patch implements a new freezer subsystem in the control groups
framework.  It provides a way to stop and resume execution of all tasks in
a cgroup by writing in the cgroup filesystem.

The freezer subsystem in the container filesystem defines a file named
freezer.state.  Writing "FROZEN" to the state file will freeze all tasks
in the cgroup.  Subsequently writing "RUNNING" will unfreeze the tasks in
the cgroup.  Reading will return the current state.

* Examples of usage :

   # mkdir /containers/freezer
   # mount -t cgroup -ofreezer freezer  /containers
   # mkdir /containers/0
   # echo $some_pid > /containers/0/tasks

to get status of the freezer subsystem :

   # cat /containers/0/freezer.state
   RUNNING

to freeze all tasks in the container :

   # echo FROZEN > /containers/0/freezer.state
   # cat /containers/0/freezer.state
   FREEZING
   # cat /containers/0/freezer.state
   FROZEN

to unfreeze all tasks in the container :

   # echo RUNNING > /containers/0/freezer.state
   # cat /containers/0/freezer.state
   RUNNING

This is the basic mechanism which should do the right thing for user space
task in a simple scenario.

It's important to note that freezing can be incomplete.  In that case we
return EBUSY.  This means that some tasks in the cgroup are busy doing
something that prevents us from completely freezing the cgroup at this
time.  After EBUSY, the cgroup will remain partially frozen -- reflected
by freezer.state reporting "FREEZING" when read.  The state will remain
"FREEZING" until one of these things happens:

	1) Userspace cancels the freezing operation by writing "RUNNING" to
		the freezer.state file
	2) Userspace retries the freezing operation by writing "FROZEN" to
		the freezer.state file (writing "FREEZING" is not legal
		and returns EIO)
	3) The tasks that blocked the cgroup from entering the "FROZEN"
		state disappear from the cgroup's set of tasks.
