If we're not currently in the middle of a transaction, and if we have
interrupts, there's no real reason to poll the controller more frequently
than the core IPMI code does.  Set the interrupt_disabled flag
appropriately as the interrupt state changes, and make the timeout code
reset itself only if the transaction is incomplete or we have no
interrupts.

ipc/sem.c begins with a 15 year old description about bugs in the initial
implementation in Linux-1.0.  The patch replaces that with a top level
description of the current code.

A TODO could be derived from this text:

The opengroup man page for semop() does not mandate FIFO.  Thus there is
no need for a semaphore array list of pending operations.

If

- this list is removed
- the per-semaphore array spinlock is removed (possible if there is no
  list to protect)
- sem_otime is moved into the semaphores and calculated on demand during
  semctl()

then the array would be read-mostly - which would significantly improve
scaling for applications that use semaphore arrays with lots of entries.

The price would be expensive semctl() calls:

	for(i=0;i<sma->sem_nsems;i++) spin_lock(sma->sem_lock);
	<do stuff>
	for(i=0;i<sma->sem_nsems;i++) spin_unlock(sma->sem_lock);

I'm not sure if the complexity is worth the effort, thus here is the
documentation of the current behavior first.

The wake-up part of semtimedop() consists out of two steps:

- the right tasks must be identified.
- they must be woken up.

Right now, both steps run while the array spinlock is held.  This patch
reorders the code and moves the actual wake_up_process() behind the point
where the spinlock is dropped.

The code also moves setting sem->sem_otime to one place: It does not make
sense to set the last modify time multiple times.

The following series of patches tries to fix the spinlock contention
reported by Chris Mason - his benchmark exposes problems of the current
code:

- In the worst case, the algorithm used by update_queue() is O(N^2).
  Bulk wake-up calls can enter this worst case.  The patch series fix
  that.

  Note that the benchmark app doesn't expose the problem, it just should
  be fixed: Real world apps might do the wake-ups in another order than
  perfect FIFO.

- The part of the code that runs within the semaphore array spinlock is
  significantly larger than necessary.

  The patch series fixes that.  This change is responsible for the main
  improvement.

- The cacheline with the spinlock is also used for a variable that is
  read in the hot path (sem_base) and for a variable that is unnecessarily
  written to multiple times (sem_otime).  The last step of the series
  cacheline-aligns the spinlock.

This patch:

The SysV semaphore code allows to perform multiple operations on all
semaphores in the array as atomic operations.  After a modification,
update_queue() checks which of the waiting tasks can complete.

The algorithm that is used to identify the tasks is O(N^2) in the worst
case.  For some cases, it is simple to avoid the O(N^2).

The patch adds a detection logic for some cases, especially for the case
of an array where all sleeping tasks are single sembuf operations and a
multi-sembuf operation is used to wake up multiple tasks.

A big database application uses that approach.

The patch fixes wakeup due to semctl(,,SETALL,) - the initial version of
the patch breaks that.

Currently idr_remove_all will fail with a use after free error if
idr::layers is bigger than 2, which on 32 bit systems corresponds to items
more than 1024.  This is due to stepping back too many levels during
backtracking.  For simplicity let's assume that IDR_BITS=1 -> we have 2
nodes at each level below the root node and each leaf node stores two IDs.
 (In reality for 32 bit systems IDR_BITS=5, with 32 nodes at each sub-root
level and 32 IDs in each leaf node).  The sequence of freeing the nodes at
the moment is as follows:

layer
1 ->                       a(7)
2 ->            b(3)                  c(5)
3 ->        d(1)   e(2)           f(4)    g(6)

Until step 4 things go fine, but then node c is freed, whereas node g
should be freed first.  Since node c contains the pointer to node g we'll
have a use after free error at step 6.

How many levels we step back after visiting the leaf nodes is currently
determined by the msb of the id we are currently visiting:

Step
1.          node d with IDs 0,1 is freed, current ID is advanced to 2.
            msb of the current ID bit 1. This means we need to step back
            1 level to node b and take the next sibling, node e.
2-3.        node e with IDs 2,3 is freed, current ID is 4, msb is bit 2.
            This means we need to step back 2 levels to node a, freeing
            node b on the way.
4-5.        node f with IDs 4,5 is freed, current ID is 6, msb is still
            bit 2. This means we again need to step back 2 levels to node
            a and free c on the way.
6.          We should visit node g, but its pointer is not available as
            node c was freed.

The fix changes how we determine the number of levels to step back.
Instead of deducting this merely from the msb of the current ID, we should
really check if advancing the ID causes an overflow to a bit position
corresponding to a given layer.  In the above example overflow from bit 0
to bit 1 should mean stepping back 1 level.  Overflow from bit 1 to bit 2
should mean stepping back 2 levels and so on.

The fix was tested with IDs up to 1 << 20, which corresponds to 4 layers
on 32 bit systems.

Currently, onlining or offlining a CPU failure by one of the cpu notifiers
error always cause -EINVAL error.  (i.e.  writing 0 or 1 to
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/online gets EINVAL)

To get better error reporting rather than always getting -EINVAL, This
changes cpu_notify() to return -errno value with notifier_to_errno() and
fix the callers.  Now that cpu notifiers can return encapsulate errno
value.

Currently, all cpu hotplug notifiers return NOTIFY_OK, NOTIFY_BAD, or
NOTIFY_DONE.  So cpu_notify() can returns 0 or -EPERM with this change for
now.

(notifier_to_errno(NOTIFY_OK) == 0, notifier_to_errno(NOTIFY_DONE) == 0,
notifier_to_errno(NOTIFY_BAD) == -EPERM)

Forthcoming patches convert several cpu notifiers to return encapsulate

With the recent changes this counter has a single user, get_nr_threads()
And, none of its callers need the really accurate number of threads, not
to mention each caller obviously races with fork/exit.  It is only used to
report this value to the user-space, except first_tid() uses it to avoid
the unnecessary while_each_thread() loop in the unlikely case.

It is a bit sad we need a word in struct signal_struct for this, perhaps
we can change get_nr_threads() to approximate the number of threads using
signal->live and kill ->nr_threads later.

Kill the empty thread_group_cputime_free() helper.  It was needed to free
the per-cpu data which we no longer have.

Cleanup:

- Add the boolean, group_dead = thread_group_leader(), for clarity.

- Do not test/set sig == NULL to detect the all-dead case, use this
  boolean.

- Pass this boolen to __unhash_process() and use it instead of another
  thread_group_leader() call which needs ->group_leader.

  This can be considered as microoptimization, but hopefully this also
  allows us do do other cleanups later.

Now that task->signal can't go away we can revert the horrible hack added
by ad474cac ("fix for
account_group_exec_runtime(), make sure ->signal can't be freed under
rq->lock").

And we can do more cleanups sched_stats.h/posix-cpu-timers.c later.

When the last thread exits signal->tty is freed, but the pointer is not
cleared and points to nowhere.

This is OK.  Nobody should use signal->tty lockless, and it is no longer
possible to take ->siglock.  However this looks wrong even if correct, and
the nice OOPS is better than subtle and hard to find bugs.

Change __exit_signal() to clear signal->tty under ->siglock.

Note: __exit_signal() needs more cleanups.  It should not check "sig !=
NULL" to detect the all-dead case and we have the same issues with
signal->stats.

We have a lot of problems with accessing task_struct->signal, it can
"disappear" at any moment.  Even current can't use its ->signal safely
after exit_notify().  ->siglock helps, but it is not convenient, not
always possible, and sometimes it makes sense to use task->signal even
after this task has already dead.

This patch adds the reference counter, sigcnt, into signal_struct.  This
reference is owned by task_struct and it is dropped in
__put_task_struct().  Perhaps it makes sense to export
get/put_signal_struct() later, but currently I don't see the immediate
reason.

Rename __cleanup_signal() to free_signal_struct() and unexport it.  With
the previous changes it does nothing except kmem_cache_free().

Change __exit_signal() to not clear/free ->signal, it will be freed when
the last reference to any thread in the thread group goes away.

Note:
	- when the last thead exits signal->tty can point to nowhere, see
	  the next patch.

	- with or without this patch signal_struct->count should go away,
	  or at least it should be "int nr_threads" for fs/proc. This will
	  be addressed later.

tty_kref_put() has two callsites in copy_process() paths,

	1. if copy_process() suceeds it is called before we copy
	   signal->tty from parent

	2. otherwise it is called from __cleanup_signal() under
	   bad_fork_cleanup_signal: label

In both cases tty_kref_put() is not right and unneeded because we don't
have the balancing tty_kref_get().  Fortunately, this is harmless because
this can only happen without CLONE_THREAD, and in this case signal->tty
must be NULL.

Remove tty_kref_put() from copy_process() and __cleanup_signal(), and
change another caller of __cleanup_signal(), __exit_signal(), to call
tty_kref_put() by hand.

I hope this change makes sense by itself, but it is also needed to make
->signal refcountable.

Preparation to make task->signal immutable, no functional changes.

It doesn't matter which pointer we check under tasklist to ensure the task
was not released, ->signal or ->sighand.  But we are going to make
->signal refcountable, change the code to use ->sighand.

Note: this code doesn't need this check and tasklist_lock at all, it
should be converted to use lock_task_sighand().  And, the code under
SIGNAL_STOP_STOPPED check looks wrong.
