This is a rewrite of the ramdisk block device driver. The old one is really difficult because it effectively implements a block device which serves data out of its own buffer cache. It relies on the dirty bit being set, to pin its backing store in cache, however there are non trivial paths which can clear the dirty bit (eg. try_to_free_buffers()), which had recently lead to data corruption. And in general it is completely wrong for a block device driver to do this. The new one is more like a regular block device driver. It has no idea about vm/vfs stuff. It's backing store is similar to the buffer cache (a simple radix-tree of pages), but it doesn't know anything about page cache (the pages in the radix tree are not pagecache pages). There is one slight downside -- direct block device access and filesystem metadata access goes through an extra copy and gets stored in RAM twice. However, this downside is only slight, because the real buffercache of the device is now reclaimable (because we're not playing crazy games with it), so under memory intensive situations, footprint should effectively be the same -- maybe even a slight advantage to the new driver because it can also reclaim buffer heads. The fact that it now goes through all the regular vm/fs paths makes it much more useful for testing, too. text data bss dec hex filename 2837 849 384 4070 fe6 drivers/block/rd.o 3528 371 12 3911 f47 drivers/block/brd.o Text is larger, but data and bss are smaller, making total size smaller. A few other nice things about it: - Similar structure and layout to the new loop device handlinag. - Dynamic ramdisk creation. - Runtime flexible buffer head size (because it is no longer part of the ramdisk code). - Boot / load time flexible ramdisk size, which could easily be extended to a per-ramdisk runtime changeable size (eg. with an ioctl). - Can use highmem for the backing store.

Suppress A.OUT library support if CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_AOUT is not set. Not all architectures support the A.OUT binfmt, so the ELF binfmt should not be permitted to go looking for A.OUT libraries to load in such a case. Not only that, but under such conditions A.OUT core dumps are not produced either. To make this work, this patch also does the following: (1) Makes the existence of the contents of linux/a.out.h contingent on CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_AOUT. (2) Renames dump_thread() to aout_dump_thread() as it's only called by A.OUT core dumping code. (3) Moves aout_dump_thread() into asm/a.out-core.h and makes it inline. This is then included only where needed. This means that this bit of arch code will be stored in the appropriate A.OUT binfmt module rather than the core kernel. (4) Drops A.OUT support for Blackfin (according to Mike Frysinger it's not needed) and FRV. This patch depends on the previous patch to move STACK_TOP[_MAX] out of asm/a.out.h and into asm/processor.h as they're required whether or not A.OUT format is available.

Mark arches that support A.OUT format by including the following in their master Kconfig files: config ARCH_SUPPORTS_AOUT def_bool y This should also be set if the arch provides compatibility A.OUT support for an older arch, for instance x86_64 for i386 or sparc64 for sparc.

This is the first step (of two) in removing the kill_pgrp_info. All the users of this function are in kernel/signal.c, but all they need is to call __kill_pgrp_info() with the tasklist_lock read-locked. Fortunately, one of its users is the kill_something_info(), which already needs this lock in one of its branches, so clean these branches up and call the __kill_pgrp_info() directly.

There is a window when de_thread() switches the leader and drops tasklist_lock. In that window do_each_pid_task(PIDTYPE_PID) finds both new and old leaders. The problem is pretty much theoretical and probably can be ignored. Currently the only users of do_each_pid_task(PIDTYPE_PID) are send_sigio/send_sigurg, so they can send the signal to the same process twice.

kill_pid_info()->pid_task() could be the old leader of the execing process. In that case it is possible that the leader will be released before we take siglock. This means that kill_pid_info() (and thus sys_kill()) can return a false -ESRCH. Change the code to retry when lock_task_sighand() fails. The endless loop is not possible, __exit_signal() both clears ->sighand and does detach_pid(). Signed-off-by: NOleg Nesterov <oleg@tv-sign.ru> Cc: "Eric W.

pid_vnr returns the user space pid with respect to the pid namespace the struct pid was allocated in. What we want before we return a pid to user space is the user space pid with respect to the pid namespace of current. pid_vnr is a very nice optimization but because it isn't quite what we want it is easy to use pid_vnr at times when we aren't certain the struct pid was allocated in our pid namespace. Currently this describes at least tiocgpgrp and tiocgsid in ttyio.c the parent process reported in the core dumps and the parent process in get_signal_to_deliver. So unless the performance impact is huge having an interface that does what we want instead of always what we want should be much more reliable and much less error prone. Signed-off-by: NEric W.

This modifies do_wait and eligible child to take a pair of enum pid_type and struct pid *pid to precisely specify what set of processes are eligible to be waited for, instead of the raw pid_t value from sys_wait4. This fixes a bug in sys_waitid where you could not wait for children in just process group 1. This fixes a pid namespace crossing case in eligible_child. Allowing us to wait for a processes in our current process group even if our current process group == 0. This allows the no child with this pid case to be optimized. This allows us to optimize the pid membership test in eligible child to be optimized. This even closes a theoretical pid wraparound race where in a threaded parent if two threads are waiting for the same child and one thread picks up the child and the pid numbers wrap around and generate another child with that same pid before the other thread is scheduled (teribly insanely unlikely) we could end up waiting on the second child with the same pid# and not discover that the specific child we were waiting for has exited.

The previous bugfix was not optimal, we shouldn't care about group stop when we are the only thread or the group stop is in progress. In that case nothing special is needed, just set PF_EXITING and return. Also, take the related "TIF_SIGPENDING re-targeting" code from exit_notify(). So, from the performance POV the only difference is that we don't trust !signal_pending() until we take ->siglock. But this in fact fixes another ___pure___ theoretical minor race. __group_complete_signal() finds the task without PF_EXITING and chooses it as the target for signal_wake_up(). But nothing prevents this task from exiting in between without noticing the pending signal and thus unpredictably delaying the actual delivery.

do_signal_stop() counts all sub-thread and sets ->group_stop_count accordingly. Every thread should decrement ->group_stop_count and stop, the last one should notify the parent. However a sub-thread can exit before it notices the signal_pending(), or it may be somewhere in do_exit() already. In that case the group stop never finishes properly. Note: this is a minimal fix, we can add some optimizations later. Say we can return quickly if thread_group_empty(). Also, we can move some signal related code from exit_notify() to exit_signals().

As Eric pointed out, there is no problem with init starting with sid == pgid == 0, and this was historical linux behavior changed in 2.6.18. Remove kernel_init()->__set_special_pids(), this is unneeded and complicates the rules for sys_setsid(). This change and the previous change in daemonize() mean that /sbin/init does not need the special "session != 1" hack in sys_setsid() any longer.

sys_setsid() still deals with pid_t's from the global namespace.

Imho, the current usage of security_task_wait() is not logical. Suppose we have the single child p, and security_task_wait(p) return -EANY. In that case waitpid(-1) returns this error. Why? Isn't it better to return ECHLD? We don't really have reapable children. Now suppose that child was stolen by gdb. In that case we find this child on ->ptrace_children and set flag = 1, but we don't check that the child was denied. So, do_wait(..., WNOHANG) returns 0, this doesn't match the behaviour above. Without WNOHANG do_wait() blocks only to return the error later, when the child will be untraced. Inho, really strange. I think eligible_child() should return the error only if the child's pid was requested explicitly, otherwise we should silently ignore the tasks which were nacked by security_task_wait().

eligible_child() == 2 means delay_group_leader(). With the previous patch this only matters for EXIT_ZOMBIE task, we can move that special check to the only place it is really needed. Also, with this patch we don't skip security_task_wait() for the group leaders in a non-empty thread group. I don't really understand the exact semantics of security_task_wait(), but imho this change is a bugfix. Also rearrange the code a bit to kill an ugly "check_continued" backdoor.

wait_task_stopped() doesn't need the "delay_group_leader" parameter. If the child is not traced it must be a group leader. With or without subthreads ->group_stop_count == 0 when the whole task is stopped.
