Reduce the resource counter overhead (mostly spinlock) associated with the
root cgroup.  This is a part of the several patches to reduce mem cgroup
overhead.  I had posted other approaches earlier (including using percpu
counters).  Those patches will be a natural addition and will be added
iteratively on top of these.

The patch stops resource counter accounting for the root cgroup.  The data
for display is derived from the statisitcs we maintain via
mem_cgroup_charge_statistics (which is more scalable).  What happens today
is that, we do double accounting, once using res_counter_charge() and once
using memory_cgroup_charge_statistics().  For the root, since we don't
implement limits any more, we don't need to track every charge via
res_counter_charge() and check for limit being exceeded and reclaim.

The main mem->res usage_in_bytes can be derived by summing the cache and
rss usage data from memory statistics (MEM_CGROUP_STAT_RSS and
MEM_CGROUP_STAT_CACHE).  However, for memsw->res usage_in_bytes, we need
additional data about swapped out memory.  This patch adds a
MEM_CGROUP_STAT_SWAPOUT and uses that along with MEM_CGROUP_STAT_RSS and
MEM_CGROUP_STAT_CACHE to derive the memsw data.  This data is computed
recursively when hierarchy is enabled.

The tests results I see on a 24 way show that

1. The lock contention disappears from /proc/lock_stats
2. The results of the test are comparable to running with
   cgroup_disable=memory.

Implement reclaim from groups over their soft limit

Permit reclaim from memory cgroups on contention (via the direct reclaim
path).

memory cgroup soft limit reclaim finds the group that exceeds its soft
limit by the largest number of pages and reclaims pages from it and then
reinserts the cgroup into its correct place in the rbtree.

Add additional checks to mem_cgroup_hierarchical_reclaim() to detect long
loops in case all swap is turned off.  The code has been refactored and
the loop check (loop < 2) has been enhanced for soft limits.  For soft
limits, we try to do more targetted reclaim.  Instead of bailing out after
two loops, the routine now reclaims memory proportional to the size by
which the soft limit is exceeded.  The proportion has been empirically
determined.

Organize cgroups over soft limit in a RB-Tree

Introduce an RB-Tree for storing memory cgroups that are over their soft
limit.  The overall goal is to

1. Add a memory cgroup to the RB-Tree when the soft limit is exceeded.
   We are careful about updates, updates take place only after a particular
   time interval has passed
2. We remove the node from the RB-Tree when the usage goes below the soft
   limit

The next set of patches will exploit the RB-Tree to get the group that is
over its soft limit by the largest amount and reclaim from it, when we
face memory contention.

Add an interface to allow get/set of soft limits.  Soft limits for memory
plus swap controller (memsw) is currently not supported.  Resource
counters have been enhanced to support soft limits and new type
RES_SOFT_LIMIT has been added.  Unlike hard limits, soft limits can be
directly set and do not need any reclaim or checks before setting them to
a newer value.

Kamezawa-San raised a question as to whether soft limit should belong to
res_counter.  Since all resources understand the basic concepts of hard
and soft limits, it is justified to add soft limits here.  Soft limits are
a generic resource usage feature, even file system quotas support soft
limits.

Soft limits is a new feature for the memory resource controller, something
similar has existed in the group scheduler in the form of shares.  The CPU
controllers interpretation of shares is very different though.

Soft limits are the most useful feature to have for environments where the
administrator wants to overcommit the system, such that only on memory
contention do the limits become active.  The current soft limits
implementation provides a soft_limit_in_bytes interface for the memory
controller and not for memory+swap controller.  The implementation
maintains an RB-Tree of groups that exceed their soft limit and starts
reclaiming from the group that exceeds this limit by the maximum amount.

Currently, new mode of the attach function can only tell the subsystem

needs that information for each thread that's being moved, but if one were
to be added (for example, one that counts tasks within a group) this bit

Previously there was the problem in which two processes from different pid
namespaces reading the tasks or procs file could result in one process
seeing results from the other's namespace.  Rather than one pidlist for
each file in a cgroup, we now keep a list of pidlists keyed by namespace
and file type (tasks versus procs) in which entries are placed on demand.
Each pidlist has its own lock, and that the pidlists themselves are passed
around in the seq_file's private pointer means we don't have to touch the
cgroup or its master list except when creating and destroying entries.

The following series adds a "cgroup.procs" file to each cgroup that
reports unique tgids rather than pids, and allows all threads in a
threadgroup to be atomically moved to a new cgroup.

The subsystem "attach" interface is modified to support attaching whole
threadgroups at a time, which could introduce potential problems if any
subsystem were to need to access the old cgroup of every thread being
moved.  The attach interface may need to be revised if this becomes the
case.

Also added is functionality for read/write locking all CLONE_THREAD
fork()ing within a threadgroup, by means of an rwsem that lives in the
sighand_struct, for per-threadgroup-ness and also for sharing a cacheline
with the sighand's atomic count.  This scheme should introduce no extra
overhead in the fork path when there's no contention.

The final patch reveals potential for a race when forking before a
subsystem's attach function is called - one potential solution in case any
subsystem has this problem is to hang on to the group's fork mutex through
the attach() calls, though no subsystem yet demonstrates need for an
extended critical section.

    cgroups: fix pid namespace bug

This is in preparation for some clashing cgroups changes that subsume the
original commit's functionaliy.

The original commit fixed a pid namespace bug which Ben Blum fixed
independently (in the same way, but with different code) as part of a
series of patches.  I played around with trying to reconcile Ben's patch
series with Li's patch, but concluded that it was simpler to just revert
Li's, given that Ben's patch series contained essentially the same fix.

This patch removes the restriction that a cgroup hierarchy must have at
least one bound subsystem.  The mount option "none" is treated as an
explicit request for no bound subsystems.

A hierarchy with no subsystems can be useful for plain task tracking, and
is also a step towards the support for multiply-bindable subsystems.

As part of this change, the hierarchy id is no longer calculated from the
bitmask of subsystems in the hierarchy (since this is not guaranteed to be
unique) but is allocated via an ida.  Reference counts on cgroups from
css_set objects are now taken explicitly one per hierarchy, rather than
one per subsystem.

Example usage:

mount -t cgroup -o none,name=foo cgroup /mnt/cgroup

Currently the cgroups code makes the assumption that the subsystem
pointers in a struct css_set uniquely identify the hierarchy->cgroup
mappings associated with the css_set; and there's no way to directly
identify the associated set of cgroups other than by indirecting through
the appropriate subsystem state pointers.

This patch removes the need for that assumption by adding a back-pointer
from struct cg_cgroup_link object to its associated cgroup; this allows
the set of cgroups to be determined by traversing the cg_links list in
the struct css_set.

# To mount the "foo" hierarchy on a second location

In "documentation: update Documentation/filesystem/proc.txt and
Documentation/sysctls" (commit 760df93e) we merged /proc/sys/fs
documentation in Documentation/sysctl/fs.txt and
Documentation/filesystem/proc.txt, but stale file-nr definition
remained.

This patch adds back the right fs-nr definition for 2.6 kernel.

There are many similar code in kernel for one object: convert time between
calendar time and broken-down time.

Here is some source I found:
  fs/ncpfs/dir.c
  fs/smbfs/proc.c
  fs/fat/misc.c
  fs/udf/udftime.c
  fs/cifs/netmisc.c
  net/netfilter/xt_time.c
  drivers/scsi/ips.c
  drivers/input/misc/hp_sdc_rtc.c
  drivers/rtc/rtc-lib.c
  arch/ia64/hp/sim/boot/fw-emu.c
  arch/m68k/mac/misc.c
  arch/powerpc/kernel/time.c
  arch/parisc/include/asm/rtc.h
  ...

We can make a common function for this type of conversion, At least we
can get following benefit:

1: Make kernel simple and unify
2: Easy to fix bug in converting code
3: Reduce clone of code in future
   For example, I'm trying to make ftrace display walltime,
   this patch will make me easy.

This code is based on code from glibc-2.6

Commit 6bfde05b ("hugetlbfs: allow the creation of files suitable for
MAP_PRIVATE on the vfs internal mount") altered can_do_hugetlb_shm() to
check if a file is being created for shared memory or mmap().  If this
returns false, we then unconditionally call user_shm_lock() triggering a
warning.  This block should never be entered for MAP_HUGETLB.  This
patch partially reverts the problem and fixes the check.

Now that ksm is in mainline it is better to change the default values to
better fit to most of the users.

This patch change the ksm default values to be:

	ksm_thread_pages_to_scan = 100 (instead of 200)
	ksm_thread_sleep_millisecs = 20 (like before)
	ksm_run = KSM_RUN_STOP (instead of KSM_RUN_MERGE - meaning ksm is
	                        disabled by default)
	ksm_max_kernel_pages = nr_free_buffer_pages / 4 (instead of 2046)

The important aspect of this patch is: it disables ksm by default, and sets
the number of the kernel_pages that can be allocated to be a reasonable
number.

  fujitsu-laptop.c:(.exit.text+0xbe53): undefined reference to `led_classdev_unregister'

It happens because the new INPUT_WINBOND_CIR driver relies on new-leds
infrastructure - but does not select it in drivers/input/misc/Kconfig.
But it selects LEDS_CLASS, which confuses a number of other drivers into
thinking that all the leds infrastructure is in place.

Fix this by selecting NEW_LEDS as well, like similar drivers do.

Eventually, this whole leds infrastructure complexity should be
cleaned up, it's been going on for years.

This reverts commit c02e3f36 ("kmod: fix race in usermodehelper code")

The patch is wrong.  UMH_WAIT_EXEC is called with VFORK what ensures
that the child finishes prior returing back to the parent.  No race.

In fact, the patch makes it even worse because it does the thing it
claims not do:

 - It calls ->complete() on UMH_WAIT_EXEC

 - the complete() callback may de-allocated subinfo as seen in the
   following call chain:

    [<c009f904>] (__link_path_walk+0x20/0xeb4) from [<c00a094c>] (path_walk+0x48/0x94)
    [<c00a094c>] (path_walk+0x48/0x94) from [<c00a0a34>] (do_path_lookup+0x24/0x4c)
    [<c00a0a34>] (do_path_lookup+0x24/0x4c) from [<c00a158c>] (do_filp_open+0xa4/0x83c)
    [<c00a158c>] (do_filp_open+0xa4/0x83c) from [<c009ba90>] (open_exec+0x24/0xe0)
    [<c009ba90>] (open_exec+0x24/0xe0) from [<c009bfa8>] (do_execve+0x7c/0x2e4)
    [<c009bfa8>] (do_execve+0x7c/0x2e4) from [<c0026a80>] (kernel_execve+0x34/0x80)
    [<c0026a80>] (kernel_execve+0x34/0x80) from [<c004b514>] (____call_usermodehelper+0x130/0x148)
    [<c004b514>] (____call_usermodehelper+0x130/0x148) from [<c0024858>] (kernel_thread_exit+0x0/0x8)

   and the path pointer was NULL.  Good that ARM's kernel_execve()
   doesn't check the pointer for NULL or else I wouldn't notice it.

The only race there might be is with UMH_NO_WAIT but it is too late for
me to investigate it now.  UMH_WAIT_PROC could probably also use VFORK
and we could save one exec.  So the only race I see is with UMH_NO_WAIT
and recent scheduler changes where the child does not always run first
might have trigger here something but as I said, it is late....

We're not forcing removal of the old cpu_ functions, but we might as
well delete the now-unused ones.

Especially CPUMASK_ALLOC and friends.  I actually got a phone call (!)
from a hacker who thought I had introduced them as the new cpumask
API.  He seemed bewildered that I had lost all taste.
