The actual Linux implementation for semctl(GETNCNT) and semctl(GETZCNT)
always (since 0.99.10) reported a thread as sleeping on all semaphores
that are listed in the semop() call.

The documented behavior (both in the Linux man page and in the Single
Unix Specification) is that a task should be reported on exactly one
semaphore: The semaphore that caused the thread to got to sleep.

This patch adds a pr_info_once() that is triggered if a thread hits the
relevant case.

The code triggers slightly too often, otherwise it would be necessary to
replicate the old code.  As there are no known users of GETNCNT or
GETZCNT, this is done to prevent unnecessary bloat.

The task that triggered is reported with name (tsk->comm) and pid.

SUSv4 clearly defines how semncnt and semzcnt must be calculated: A task
waits on exactly one semaphore: The semaphore from the first operation
in the sop array that cannot proceed.

The Linux implementation never followed the standard, it tried to count
all semaphores that might be the reason why a task sleeps.

This patch fixes that.

Note:
a) The implementation assumes that GETNCNT and GETZCNT are rare operations,
   therefore the code counts them only on demand.
   (If they wouldn't be rare, then the non-compliance would have
   been found earlier)

b) compared to the initial version of the patch, the BUG_ONs were removed
   and it was clarified that the new behavior conforms to SUS.

Back-compatibility concerns:

Manfred:

: - there is no application in Fedora that uses GETNCNT or GETZCNT.
:
: - application that use only single-sop semop() are also safe, the
:   difference only affects complex apps.
:
: - portable application are also safe, the new behavior is standard
:   compliant.
:
: But that's it.  The old behavior existed in Linux from 0.99.something
: until now.

Michael:

: * These operations seem to be very little used.  Grepping the public
:   source that is contained Fedora 20 source DVD, there appear to be no
:   uses.  Of course, this says nothing about uses in private /
:   non-mainstream FOSS code, but it seems likely that the same pattern
:   is followed there.
:
: * The existing behavior is hard enough to understand that I suspect
:   that no one understood it well enough to rely on it anyway
:   (especially as that behavior contradicted both man page and POSIX).
:
: So, there's a chance of breakage, but I estimate that it's minute.

GETZCNT is supposed to return the number of threads that wait until a
semaphore value becomes 0.

The current implementation overlooks complex operations that contain
both wait-for-zero operation and operations that alter at least one
semaphore.

The patch fixes that.  It's intentionally copy&paste, this will be
cleaned up in the next patch.

System V shared memory

a) can be abused to trigger out-of-memory conditions and the standard
   measures against out-of-memory do not work:

    - it is not possible to use setrlimit to limit the size of shm segments.

    - segments can exist without association with any processes, thus
      the oom-killer is unable to free that memory.

b) is typically used for shared information - today often multiple GB.
   (e.g. database shared buffers)

The current default is a maximum segment size of 32 MB and a maximum
total size of 8 GB.  This is often too much for a) and not enough for
b), which means that lots of users must change the defaults.

This patch increases the default limits (nearly) to the maximum, which
is perfect for case b).  The defaults are used after boot and as the
initial value for each new namespace.

Admins/distros that need a protection against a) should reduce the
limits and/or enable shm_rmid_forced.

Unix has historically required setting these limits for shared memory,
and Linux inherited such behavior.  The consequence of this is added
complexity for users and administrators.  One very common example are
Database setup/installation documents and scripts, where users must
manually calculate the values for these limits.  This also requires
(some) knowledge of how the underlying memory management works, thus
causing, in many occasions, the limits to just be flat out wrong.
Disabling these limits sooner could have saved companies a lot of time,
headaches and money for support.  But it's never too late, simplify
users life now.

Further notes:
- The patch only changes default, overrides behave as before:
        # sysctl kernel.shmall=33554432
  would recreate the previous limit for SHMMAX (for the current namespace).

- Disabling sysv shm allocation is possible with:
        # sysctl kernel.shmall=0
  (not a new feature, also per-namespace)

- The limits are intentionally set to a value slightly less than ULONG_MAX,
  to avoid triggering overflows in user space apps.

The increase of SHMMAX/SHMALL is a 4 patch series.

The change itself is trivial, the only problem are interger overflows.
The overflows are not new, but if we make huge values the default, then
the code should be free from overflows.

SHMMAX:

- shmmem_file_setup places a hard limit on the segment size:
  MAX_LFS_FILESIZE.

  On 32-bit, the limit is > 1 TB, i.e. 4 GB-1 byte segments are
  possible. Rounded up to full pages the actual allocated size
  is 0. --> must be fixed, patch 3

- shmat:
  - find_vma_intersection does not handle overflows properly.
    --> must be fixed, patch 1

  - the rest is fine, do_mmap_pgoff limits mappings to TASK_SIZE
    and checks for overflows (i.e.: map 2 GB, starting from
    addr=2.5GB fails).

SHMALL:
- after creating 8192 segments size (1L<<63)-1, shm_tot overflows and
  returns 0.  --> must be fixed, patch 2.

Userspace:
- Obviously, there could be overflows in userspace. There is nothing
  we can do, only use values smaller than ULONG_MAX.
  I ended with "ULONG_MAX - 1L<<24":

  - TASK_SIZE cannot be used because it is the size of the current
    task. Could be 4G if it's a 32-bit task on a 64-bit kernel.

  - The maximum size is not standardized across archs:
    I found TASK_MAX_SIZE, TASK_SIZE_MAX and TASK_SIZE_64.

  - Just in case some arch revives a 4G/4G split, nearly
    ULONG_MAX is a valid segment size.

  - Using "0" as a magic value for infinity is even worse, because
    right now 0 means 0, i.e. fail all allocations.

This patch (of 4):

find_vma_intersection() does not work as intended if addr+size overflows.
The patch adds a manual check before the call to find_vma_intersection.

#include <uapi/asm-generic/ioctl.h>

/* provoke compile error for invalid uses of size argument */
extern unsigned int __invalid_size_argument_for_IOC;
#define _IOC_TYPECHECK(t) \
        ((sizeof(t) == sizeof(t[1]) && \
          sizeof(t) < (1 << _IOC_SIZEBITS)) ? \
          sizeof(t) : __invalid_size_argument_for_IOC)

If it is defined as this (as is already done if __KERNEL__ is not defined):

  #define _IOC_TYPECHECK(t) (sizeof(t))

then all is well with the world.

This patch allows sparse to work correctly.

When writing to a sysctl string, each write, regardless of VFS position,
begins writing the string from the start.  This means the contents of
the last write to the sysctl controls the string contents instead of the
first:

  open("/proc/sys/kernel/modprobe", O_WRONLY)   = 1
  write(1, "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"..., 4096) = 4096
  write(1, "/bin/true", 9)                = 9
  close(1)                                = 0

  $ cat /proc/sys/kernel/modprobe
  /bin/true

Expected behaviour would be to have the sysctl be "AAAA..." capped at
maxlen (in this case KMOD_PATH_LEN: 256), instead of truncating to the
contents of the second write.  Similarly, multiple short writes would
not append to the sysctl.

The old behavior is unlike regular POSIX files enough that doing audits
of software that interact with sysctls can end up in unexpected or
dangerous situations.  For example, "as long as the input starts with a
trusted path" turns out to be an insufficient filter, as what must also
happen is for the input to be entirely contained in a single write
syscall -- not a common consideration, especially for high level tools.

This provides kernel.sysctl_writes_strict as a way to make this behavior
act in a less surprising manner for strings, and disallows non-zero file
position when writing numeric sysctls (similar to what is already done
when reading from non-zero file positions).  For now, the default (0) is
to warn about non-zero file position use, but retain the legacy
behavior.  Setting this to -1 disables the warning, and setting this to
1 enables the file position respecting behavior.

written would not be meaningful to sysctl" doesn't apply here, since the
size of the write and the contents of the final write are what matter
when writing to sysctls.

This adds the sysctl kernel.sysctl_writes_strict to control the write
behavior.  The default (0) reports when VFS position is non-0 on a
write, but retains legacy behavior, -1 disables the warning, and 1
enables the position-respecting behavior.

The long-term plan here is to wait for userspace to be fixed in response
to the new warning and to then switch the default kernel behavior to the
new position-respecting behavior.

This patch (of 4):

The char buffer arguments are needlessly cast in weird places.  Clean it
up so things are easier to read.

As result of deprecation of MSI-X/MSI enablement functions
pci_enable_msix() and pci_enable_msi_block() all drivers using these two
interfaces need to be updated to use the new pci_enable_msi_range() or
pci_enable_msi_exact() and pci_enable_msix_range() or
pci_enable_msix_exact() interfaces.

The patch has no runtime effect.

idr_layer->layer is always accessed in read path, move it in the front.

idr_layer->bitmap is moved on the bottom.  And rcu_head shares with
bitmap due to they do not be accessed at the same time.

idr->id_free/id_free_cnt/lock are free list fields, and moved to the
bottom.  They will be removed in near future.

If "idr->hint == p" is true, it also implies "idr->hint" is true(not NULL).

After idr subsystem is changed to RCU-awared, the free layer will not go
to the free list.  The free list will not be filled up when
idr_remove().  So we don't need to shink it too.

When the smaller id is not found, idr_replace() returns -ENOENT.  But
when the id is bigger enough, idr_replace() returns -EINVAL, actually
there is no difference between these two kinds of ids.

These are all unallocated id, the return values of the idr_replace() for
these ids should be the same: -ENOENT.
