In 780427f0 (Indicate that clock was set in the pvclock gtod notifier), logic was added to pass a CLOCK_WAS_SET notification to the pvclock notifier chain. While that patch added a action flag returned from accumulate_nsecs_to_secs(), it only uses the returned value in one location, and not in the logarithmic accumulation. This means if a leap second triggered during the logarithmic accumulation (which is most likely where it would happen), the notification that the clock was set would not make it to the pv notifiers. This patch extends the logarithmic_accumulation pass down that action flag so proper notification will occur. This patch also changes the varialbe action -> clock_set per Ingo's suggestion.

Since 48cdc135 (Implement a shadow timekeeper), we have to call timekeeping_update() after any adjustment to the timekeeping structure in order to make sure that any adjustments to the structure persist. Unfortunately, the updates to the tai offset via adjtimex do not trigger this update, causing adjustments to the tai offset to be made and then over-written by the previous value at the next update_wall_time() call. This patch resovles the issue by calling timekeeping_update() right after setting the tai offset.

The remaining uses of tasklist_lock were mostly about synchronizing against sighand modifications, getting coherent and safe group samples and also thread/process wide timers list handling.

Timer deletion doesn't need the tasklist lock. We need to protect against: * concurrent access to the lists p->cputime_expires and p->sighand->cputime_expires * task reaping that may also delete the timer list entry * timer firing We already hold the timer lock which protects us against concurrent timer firing. The rest only need the targets sighand to be locked. So hold it and drop the use of tasklist_lock there.

There is no need for the tasklist_lock just to take a process wide clock sample. All we need is to get a coherent sample that doesn't race with exit() and exec(): * exit() may be concurrently reaping a task and flushing its time * sighand is unstable under exit() and exec(), and the latter also result in group leader that can change To protect against these, locking the target's sighand is enough.

Consolidate the clock sampling common code used for both local and remote targets. Note that this introduces a tiny user ABI change: if a PID is passed to clock_gettime() along the clockid, we used to forbid a process wide clock sample when that PID doesn't belong to a group leader. Now after this patch we allow process wide clock samples if that PID belongs to the current task, even if the current task is not the group leader. But local process wide clock samples are allowed if PID == 0 (current task) even if the current task is not the group leader. So in the end this should be no big deal as this actually harmonize the behaviour when the remote sample is actually a local one.

When a timer's target is seen to be buried, for example on calls to timer_gettime(), the posix cpu timers code behaves a bit like a garbage collector and releases early the reference to the task. Then again, this optimization complicates the code for no much value: it's up to the user to release the timer and its associated ressources by calling timer_delete() after it buries the target tasks.

Now that we removed dead thread posix cpu timers caching, lets remove the dead process wide version. This caching is similar to the per thread version but it should be even more rare: * If the process id dead, we are not reading its timers status from a thread belonging to its group since they are all dead. So this caching only concern remote process timers reads. Now posix cpu timers using itimers or timer_settime() can't do remote process timers anyway so it's not even clear if there is actually a user for this caching. * Unlike per thread timers caching, this only applies to zombies targets. Buried targets' process wide timers return 0 values. But then again, timer_gettime() can't read remote process timers, so if the process is dead, there can't be any reader left anyway. Then again this caching seem to complicate the code for corner cases that are probably not worth it. So lets get rid of it. Also remove the sample snapshot on dying process timer that is now useless, as suggested by Kosaki.

When a task is exiting or has exited, its posix cpu timers don't tick anymore and won't elapse further. It's too late for them to expire. So any further call to timer_gettime() on these timers will return the same remaining expiry time. The current code optimize this by caching the remaining delta and storing it where we use to save the absolute expiration time. This way, the future calls to timer_gettime() won't need to compute the difference between the absolute expiration time and the current time anymore. Now this optimization doesn't seem to bring much value. Computing the timer remaining delta is not very costly. Fetching the timer value OTOH can be costly in two ways: * CPUCLOCK_SCHED read requires to lock the target's rq. But some optimizations are on the way to make task_sched_runtime() not holding the rq lock of a non-running target. * CPUCLOCK_VIRT/CPUCLOCK_PROF read simply consist in fetching current->utime/current->stime except when the system uses full dynticks cputime accounting. The latter requires a per task lock in order to correctly compute user and system time. But once the target is dead, this lock shouldn't be contended anyway. All in one this caching doesn't seem to be justified. Given that it complicates the code significantly for few wins, let's remove it on single thread timers.

A posix CPU timer can be rearmed while it is firing or after it is notified with a signal. This can happen for example with timers that were set with a non zero interval in timer_settime(). This rearming can happen in two places: 1) On timer firing time, which happens on the target's tick. If the timer can't trigger a signal because it is ignored, it reschedules itself to honour the timer interval. 2) On signal handling from the timer's notification target. This one can be a different task than the timer's target itself. Once the signal is notified, the notification target rearms the timer, again to honour the timer interval. When a timer is rearmed, we need to notify the full dynticks CPUs such that they restart their tick in case they are running tasks that may have a share in elapsing this timer. Now the 1st case above handles full dynticks CPUs with a call to posix_cpu_timer_kick_nohz() from the posix cpu timer firing code. But the second case ignores the fact that some CPUs may run non-idle tasks with their tick off. As a result, when a timer is resheduled after its signal notification, the full dynticks CPUs may completely ignore it and not tick on the timer as expected This patch fixes this bug by handling both cases in one. All we need is to move the kick to the rearming common code in posix_cpu_timer_schedule().

After a posix cpu timer is set, a workqueue is scheduled in order to kick the full dynticks CPUs and let them restart their tick if necessary in case the task they are running is concerned by the new timer. This kick is implemented by way of IPIs, which require interrupts to be enabled, hence the need for a workqueue to raise them because the posix cpu timer set path has interrupts disabled. Now if there is no full dynticks CPU on the system, the workqueue is still scheduled but it simply won't send any IPI and return immediately. So lets spare that worqueue when it is not needed.

If a cgroup file implements either read_map() or read_seq_string(), such file is served using seq_file by overriding file->f_op to cgroup_seqfile_operations, which also overrides the release method to single_release() from cgroup_file_release(). Because cgroup_file_open() didn't use to acquire any resources, this used to be fine, but since f7d58818 ("cgroup: pin cgroup_subsys_state when opening a cgroupfs file"), cgroup_file_open() pins the css (cgroup_subsys_state) which is put by cgroup_file_release(). The patch forgot to update the release path for seq_files and each open/release cycle leaks a css reference. Fix it by updating cgroup_file_release() to also handle seq_files and using it for seq_file release path too. Signed-off-by: NTejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # v3.12

Tony reported that aa0d5326 ("ia64: Use preempt_schedule_irq") broke PREEMPT=n builds on ia64. Ok, wrapped my brain around it. I tripped over the magic asm foo which has a single need_resched check and schedule point for both sys call return and interrupt return. So you need the schedule_preempt_irq() for kernel preemption from interrupt return while on a normal syscall preemption a schedule would be sufficient. But using schedule_preempt_irq() is not harmful here in any way. It just sets the preempt_active bit also in cases where it would not be required. Even on preempt=n kernels adding the preempt_active bit is completely harmless. So instead of having an extra function, moving the existing one out of the ifdef PREEMPT looks like the sanest thing to do. It would also allow getting rid of various other sti/schedule/cli asm magic in other archs.

When the system enters suspend, it disables all interrupts in suspend_device_irqs(), including the interrupts marked EARLY_RESUME. On the resume side things are different. The EARLY_RESUME interrupts are reenabled in sys_core_ops->resume and the non EARLY_RESUME interrupts are reenabled in the normal system resume path. When suspend_noirq() failed or suspend is aborted for any other reason, we might omit the resume side call to sys_core_ops->resume() and therefor the interrupts marked EARLY_RESUME are not reenabled and stay disabled forever. To solve this, enable all irqs unconditionally in irq_resume() regardless whether interrupts marked EARLY_RESUMEhave been already enabled or not. This might try to reenable already enabled interrupts in the non failure case, but the only affected platform is XEN and it has been confirmed that it does not cause any side effects.

When one work starts execution, the high bits of work's data contain pool ID. It can represent a maximum of WORK_OFFQ_POOL_NONE. Pool ID is assigned WORK_OFFQ_POOL_NONE when the work being initialized indicating that no pool is associated and get_work_pool() uses it to check the associated pool. So if worker_pool_assign_id() assigns a ID greater than or equal WORK_OFFQ_POOL_NONE to a pool, it triggers leakage, and it may break the non-reentrance guarantee. This patch fix this issue by modifying the worker_pool_assign_id() function calling idr_alloc() by setting @end param WORK_OFFQ_POOL_NONE. Furthermore, in the current implementation, the BUILD_BUG_ON() in init_workqueues makes no sense. The number of worker pools needed cannot be determined at compile time, because the number of backing pools for UNBOUND workqueues is dynamic based on the assigned custom attributes.

On a given pool_workqueue, work items are processed in FIFO order and limiting max_active to 1 enforces the queued work items to be processed one by one. Unfortunately, 4c16bd32 ("workqueue: implement NUMA affinity for unbound workqueues") accidentally broke this guarantee by applying NUMA affinity to ordered workqueues too. On NUMA setups, an ordered workqueue would end up with separate pool_workqueues for different nodes. Each pool_workqueue still limits max_active to 1 but multiple work items may be executed concurrently and out of order depending on which node they are queued to. Fix it by using dedicated ordered_wq_attrs[] when creating ordered workqueues. The new attrs match the unbound ones except that no_numa is always set thus forcing all NUMA nodes to share the default pool_workqueue. While at it, add sanity check in workqueue creation path which verifies that an ordered workqueues has only the default pool_workqueue.

Since be445626 ("cgroup: remove synchronize_rcu() from cgroup_diput()"), cgroup destruction path makes use of workqueue. css freeing is performed from a work item from that point on and a later commit, ea15f8cc ("cgroup: split cgroup destruction into two steps"), moves css offlining to workqueue too. As cgroup destruction isn't depended upon for memory reclaim, the destruction work items were put on the system_wq; unfortunately, some controller may block in the destruction path for considerable duration while holding cgroup_mutex. As large part of destruction path is synchronized through cgroup_mutex, when combined with high rate of cgroup removals, this has potential to fill up system_wq's max_active of 256. Also, it turns out that memcg's css destruction path ends up queueing and waiting for work items on system_wq through work_on_cpu(). If such operation happens while system_wq is fully occupied by cgroup destruction work items, work_on_cpu() can't make forward progress because system_wq is full and other destruction work items on system_wq can't make forward progress because the work item waiting for work_on_cpu() is holding cgroup_mutex, leading to deadlock. This can be fixed by queueing destruction work items on a separate workqueue. This patch creates a dedicated workqueue - cgroup_destroy_wq - for this purpose. As these work items shouldn't have inter-dependencies and mostly serialized by cgroup_mutex anyway, giving high concurrency level doesn't buy anything and the workqueue's @max_active is set to 1 so that destruction work items are executed one by one on each CPU. Hugh Dickins: Because cgroup_init() is run before init_workqueues(), cgroup_destroy_wq can't be allocated from cgroup_init(). Do it from a separate core_initcall(). In the future, we probably want to reorder so that workqueue init happens before cgroup_init().

As suggested by David Miller, make genl_register_family_with_ops() a macro and pass only the array, evaluating ARRAY_SIZE() in the macro, this is a little safer. The openvswitch has some indirection, assing ops/n_ops directly in that code. This might ultimately just assign the pointers in the family initializations, saving the struct genl_family_and_ops and code (once mcast groups are handled differently.)

The 64-bit attr.config value for perf trace events was being copied into an "int" before doing a comparison, meaning the top 32 bits were being truncated. As far as I can tell this didn't cause any errors, but it did mean it was possible to create valid aliases for all the tracepoint ids which I don't think was intended. (For example, 0xffffffff00000018 and 0x18 both enable the same tracepoint).

Vince's perf-trinity fuzzer found yet another 'interesting' problem. When we sample the irq_work_exit tracepoint with period==1 (or PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD) and we add an fasync SIGNAL handler we create an infinite event generation loop: ,-> <IPI> | irq_work_exit() -> | trace_irq_work_exit() -> | ... | __perf_event_overflow() -> (due to fasync) | irq_work_queue() -> (irq_work_list must be empty) '--------- arch_irq_work_raise() Similar things can happen due to regular poll() wakeups if we exceed the ring-buffer wakeup watermark, or have an event_limit. To avoid this, dis-allow sampling this particular tracepoint. In order to achieve this, create a special perf_perm function pointer for each event and call this (when set) on trying to create a tracepoint perf event.
