After scalability problems have been detected when using the sysV ipcs, I have
proposed to use an RCU based implementation of the IDR api instead (see
threads http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/4/11/212 and
http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/4/29/295).

This resulted in many people asking to convert the idr API and make it rcu
safe (because most of the code was duplicated and thus unmaintanable and
unreviewable).

So here is a first attempt.

The important change wrt to the idr API itself is during idr removes: idr
layers are freed after a grace period, instead of being moved to the free
list.

The important change wrt to ipcs, is that idr_find() can now be called
locklessly inside a rcu read critical section.

Here are the results I've got for the pmsg test sent by Manfred:

kdump kernel fails to boot with calgary iommu and aacraid driver on a x366
box.  The ongoing dma's of aacraid from the first kernel continue to exist
until the driver is loaded in the kdump kernel.  Calgary is initialized
prior to aacraid and creation of new tce tables causes wrong dma's to
occur.  Here we try to get the tce tables of the first kernel in kdump
kernel and use them.  While in the kdump kernel we do not allocate new tce
tables but instead read the base address register contents of calgary
iommu and use the tables that the registers point to.  With these changes
the kdump kernel and hence aacraid now boots normally.

Change workqueue_cpu_callback() to use CPU_POST_DEAD instead of CPU_DEAD.

Most of users of flush_workqueue() can be changed to use cancel_work_sync(),
but sometimes we really need to wait for the completion and cancelling is not
an option. schedule_on_each_cpu() is good example.

Add the new helper, flush_work(work), which waits for the completion of the
specific work_struct. More precisely, it "flushes" the result of of the last
queue_work() which is visible to the caller.

For example, this code

	queue_work(wq, work);
	/* WINDOW */
	queue_work(wq, work);

	flush_work(work);

doesn't necessary work "as expected". What can happen in the WINDOW above is

	- wq starts the execution of work->func()

	- the caller migrates to another CPU

now, after the 2nd queue_work() this work is active on the previous CPU, and
at the same time it is queued on another. In this case flush_work(work) may
return before the first work->func() completes.

It is trivial to add another helper

	int flush_work_sync(struct work_struct *work)
	{
		return flush_work(work) || wait_on_work(work);
	}

which works "more correctly", but it has to iterate over all CPUs and thus
it much slower than flush_work().

I don't understand why the multi-thread coredump implies the core_uses_pid
behaviour, but we shouldn't use mm->mm_users for that.  This counter can
be incremented by get_task_mm().  Use the valued returned by
coredump_wait() instead.

Also, remove the "const char *pattern" argument, format_corename() can use
core_pattern directly.

Kill PF_BORROWED_MM.  Change use_mm/unuse_mm to not play with ->flags, and
do s/PF_BORROWED_MM/PF_KTHREAD/ for a couple of other users.

No functional changes yet.  But this allows us to do further

oom_kill/ptrace/etc often check "p->mm != NULL" to filter out the
kthreads, this is wrong because of use_mm().  The problem with
PF_BORROWED_MM is that we need task_lock() to avoid races.  With this
patch we can check PF_KTHREAD directly, or use a simple lockless helper:

	/* The result must not be dereferenced !!! */
	struct mm_struct *__get_task_mm(struct task_struct *tsk)
	{

Introduce the new PF_KTHREAD flag to mark the kernel threads.  It is set
by INIT_TASK() and copied to the forked childs (we could set it in
kthreadd() along with PF_NOFREEZE instead).

daemonize() was changed as well.  In that case testing of PF_KTHREAD is
racy, but daemonize() is hopeless anyway.

This flag is cleared in do_execve(), before search_binary_handler().
Probably not the best place, we can do this in exec_mmap() or in
start_thread(), or clear it along with PF_FORKNOEXEC.  But I think this
doesn't matter in practice, and if do_execve() fails kthread should die
soon.

1. SIGKILL can't be blocked, remove this check from sigkill_pending().

2. When ptrace_stop() sees sigkill_pending() == T, it can just return.
   Kill "int killed" and simplify the code. This also is more correct,
   the tracer shouldn't see us in TASK_TRACED if we are not going to
   stop.

I strongly believe this code needs further changes.  We should do the "was
this task killed" check unconditionally, currently it depends on
arch_ptrace_stop_needed().  On the other hand, sigkill_pending() isn't
very clever.  If the task was killed tkill(SIGKILL), the signal can be
already dequeued if the caller is do_exit().

ptrace_stop() has some complicated checks to prevent the scheduling in the
TASK_TRACED state with the pending SIGKILL, but these checks are racy, and
they depend on arch_ptrace_stop_needed().

This patch assumes that the traced task should die asap if it was killed by
SIGKILL, in that case schedule()->signal_pending_state() has no reason to
ignore the TASK_WAKEKILL part of TASK_TRACED, and we can kill this nasty
special case.

Note: do_exit()->ptrace_notify() is special, the killed task can already
dequeue SIGKILL at this point. Another indication that fatal_signal_pending()
is not exactly right.

In the switch to configurable HZ in 2.6, the treatment of the si_utime and
si_stime fields that are exposed to userland via the siginfo structure
looks to have been botched.  As things stand, these fields report times in
units of HZ, so that userland gets information that varies depending on
the HZ that the kernel was configured with.  This patch changes the
reported values to use USER_HZ units.

No changes in fs/exec.o

The for_each_process() loop in zap_threads() is very subtle, it is not
clear why we don't race with fork/exit/exec.  Add the fat comment.

Also, change the code to use while_each_thread().

fae5fa44 changed do_signal_stop() to check
SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE, this wasn't needed.  If signal_group_exit() == F, the
signal sent to SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE task must be already filtered out by the
caller, get_signal_to_deliver().  And if signal_group_exit() == T we are
not going to stop.

dequeue_signal() checks SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT before setting
SIGNAL_STOP_DEQUEUED.  This was added by
788e05a6 a long ago to avoid the
coredump/SIGSTOP race.

Since then the related code was changed, and now this subtle check is both
incomplete and unneeded at the same time.  It is incomplete because
nowadays exec() doesn't set SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT, so in fact we should check
signal_group_exit() to avoid a similar race.  Fortunately, we doesn't need
the check at all.  The only function which relies on SIGNAL_STOP_DEQUEUED
is do_signal_stop(), and it ignores this flag if signal_group_exit() == T,
this covers the SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT case.

There is no reason for rcu_read_lock() in __exit_signal().  tsk->sighand
can only be changed if tsk does exec, obviously this is not possible.

With the recent changes collect_signal() always returns true.  Change it
to return void and update the single caller.

collect_signal() checks sigismember(&list->signal, sig), this is not
needed.  This "sig" was just found by next_signal(), so it must be valid.

We have a (completely broken) call to ->notifier in between, but it must
not play with sigpending->signal bits or unlock ->siglock.
