Once install_breakpoint() fails uprobe_mmap() "ignores" all other uprobes and returns the error. It was never really needed to to stop after the first error, and in fact it was always wrong at least in -ENOTSUPP case. Change uprobe_mmap() to ignore the errors and always return 0. This is not what we want in the long term, but until we teach the callers to handle the failure it would be better to remove the pointless complications. And this doesn't look too bad, the only "reasonable" error is ENOMEM but in this case the caller should be oom-killed in the likely case or the system has more serious problems. However it makes sense to stop if fatal_signal_pending() == T. In particular this helps if the task was oom-killed.

1. Kill dup_mmap()->uprobe_mmap(), it was only needed to calculate new_mm->uprobes_state.count removed by the previous patch. If the forking process has a pending uprobe (int3) in vma, it will be copied by copy_page_range(), note that it checks vma->anon_vma so "Don't copy ptes" is not possible after install_breakpoint() which does anon_vma_prepare(). 2. Remove is_swbp_at_addr() and "int count" in uprobe_mmap(). Again, this was needed for uprobes_state.count. As a side effect this fixes the bug pointed out by Srikar, this code lacked the necessary put_uprobe(). 3. uprobe_munmap() becomes a nop after the previous patch. Remove the meaningless code but do not remove the helper, we will need it. Signed-off-by: NOleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Acked-by: NSrikar Dronamraju <srikar@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

uprobes_state->count is only needed to avoid the slow path in uprobe_pre_sstep_notifier(). It is also checked in uprobe_munmap() but ironically its only goal to decrement this counter. However, it is very broken. Just some examples: - uprobe_mmap() can race with uprobe_unregister() and wrongly increment the counter if it hits the non-uprobe "int3". Note that install_breakpoint() checks ->consumers first and returns -EEXIST if it is NULL. "atomic_sub() if error" in uprobe_mmap() looks obviously wrong too. - uprobe_munmap() can race with uprobe_register() and wrongly decrement the counter by the same reason. - Suppose an appication tries to increase the mmapped area via sys_mremap(). vma_adjust() does uprobe_munmap(whole_vma) first, this can nullify the counter temporarily and race with another thread which can hit the bp, the application will be killed by SIGTRAP. - Suppose an application mmaps 2 consecutive areas in the same file and one (or both) of these areas has uprobes. In the likely case mmap_region()->vma_merge() suceeds. Like above, this leads to uprobe_munmap/uprobe_mmap from vma_merge()->vma_adjust() but then mmap_region() does another uprobe_mmap(resulting_vma) and doubles the counter. This patch only removes this counter and fixes the compile errors, then we will try to cleanup the changed code and add something else instead.

The function graph has a test to check if the frame pointer is corrupted, which can happen with various options of gcc with mcount. But this is not an issue with -mfentry as -mfentry does not need nor use frame pointers for function graph tracing. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20120807194059.773895870@goodmis.orgAcked-by: NH.

Thanks to Andi Kleen, gcc 4.6.0 now supports -mfentry for x86 (and hopefully soon for other archs). What this does is to have the function profiler start at the beginning of the function instead of after the stack is set up. As plain -pg (mcount) is called after the stack is set up, and in some cases can have issues with the function graph tracer. It also requires frame pointers to be enabled. The -mfentry now calls __fentry__ at the beginning of the function. This allows for compiling without frame pointers and even has the ability to access parameters if needed. If the architecture and the compiler both support -mfentry then use that instead. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20120807194059.392617243@goodmis.orgAcked-by: NH.

This patch fixes: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=843640 If mmap_region()->uprobe_mmap() fails, unmap_and_free_vma path does unmap_region() but does not remove the soon-to-be-freed vma from rb tree. Actually there are more problems but this is how William noticed this bug. Perhaps we could do do_munmap() + return in this case, but in fact it is simply wrong to abort if uprobe_mmap() fails. Until at least we move the !UPROBE_COPY_INSN code from install_breakpoint() to uprobe_register(). For example, uprobe_mmap()->install_breakpoint() can fail if the probed insn is not supported (remember, uprobe_register() succeeds if nobody mmaps inode/offset), mmap() should not fail in this case. dup_mmap()->uprobe_mmap() is wrong too by the same reason, fork() can race with uprobe_register() and fail for no reason if it wins the race and does install_breakpoint() first. And, if nothing else, both mmap_region() and dup_mmap() return success if uprobe_mmap() fails. Change them to ignore the error code from uprobe_mmap().

Unexpected behavior could occur if the time is set to a value large enough to overflow a 64bit ktime_t (which is something larger then the year 2262). Also unexpected behavior could occur if large negative offsets are injected via adjtimex. So this patch improves the sanity check timekeeping inputs by improving the timespec_valid() check, and then makes better use of timespec_valid() to make sure we don't set the time to an invalid negative value or one that overflows ktime_t. Note: This does not protect from setting the time close to overflowing ktime_t and then letting natural accumulation cause the overflow.

Refcounting of fsnotify_mark in audit tree is broken. E.g: refcount create_chunk alloc_chunk 1 fsnotify_add_mark 2 untag_chunk fsnotify_get_mark 3 fsnotify_destroy_mark audit_tree_freeing_mark 2 fsnotify_put_mark 1 fsnotify_put_mark 0 via destroy_list fsnotify_mark_destroy -1 This was reported by various people as triggering Oops when stopping auditd. We could just remove the put_mark from audit_tree_freeing_mark() but that would break freeing via inode destruction. So this patch simply omits a put_mark after calling destroy_mark or adds a get_mark before. The additional get_mark is necessary where there's no other put_mark after fsnotify_destroy_mark() since it assumes that the caller is holding a reference (or the inode is keeping the mark pinned, not the case here AFAICS).

Peter Portante reported that for large cgroup hierarchies (and or on large CPU counts) we get immense lock contention on rq->lock and stuff stops working properly. His workload was a ton of processes, each in their own cgroup, everybody idling except for a sporadic wakeup once every so often. It was found that: schedule() idle_balance() load_balance() local_irq_save() double_rq_lock() update_h_load() walk_tg_tree(tg_load_down) tg_load_down() Results in an entire cgroup hierarchy walk under rq->lock for every new-idle balance and since new-idle balance isn't throttled this results in a lot of work while holding the rq->lock. This patch does two things, it removes the work from under rq->lock based on the good principle of race and pray which is widely employed in the load-balancer as a whole. And secondly it throttles the update_h_load() calculation to max once per jiffy. I considered excluding update_h_load() for new-idle balance all-together, but purely relying on regular balance passes to update this data might not work out under some rare circumstances where the new-idle busiest isn't the regular busiest for a while (unlikely, but a nightmare to debug if someone hits it and suffers).

Introducing perf_output_skip function to be able to skip data within the perf ring buffer. When writing data into perf ring buffer we first reserve needed place in ring buffer and then copy the actual data. There's a possibility we won't be able to fill all the reserved size with data, so we need a way to skip the remaining bytes. This is going to be useful when storing the user stack dump, where we might end up with less data than we originally requested.

Adding a generic way to use __output_copy function with specific copy function via DEFINE_PERF_OUTPUT_COPY macro. Using this to add new __output_copy_user function, that provides output copy from user pointers. For x86 the copy_from_user_nmi function is used and __copy_from_user_inatomic for the rest of the architectures. This new function will be used in user stack dump on sample, coming in next patches.

Introducing PERF_SAMPLE_REGS_USER sample type bit to trigger the dump of user level registers on sample. Registers we want to dump are specified by sample_regs_user bitmask. Only user level registers are dumped at the moment. Meaning the register values of the user space context as it was before the user entered the kernel for whatever reason (syscall, irq, exception, or a PMI happening in userspace). The layout of the sample_regs_user bitmap is described in asm/perf_regs.h for archs that support register dump. This is going to be useful to bring Dwarf CFI based stack unwinding on top of samples.

Revert commit 45226e94 (NMI watchdog: fix for lockup detector breakage on resume) which breaks resume from system suspend on my SH7372 Mackerel board (by causing a NULL pointer dereference to happen) and is generally wrong, because it abuses the CPU hotplug functionality in a shamelessly blatant way. The original issue should be addressed through appropriate syscore resume callback instead. Signed-off-by: NRafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>

Add missing initialization for ret variable. Its initialization is based on the re_cnt variable, which is being set deep down in the ftrace_function_filter_re function. I'm not sure compilers would be smart enough to see this in near future, so killing the warning this way.

The warkeup_rt self test used msleep() calls to wait for real time tasks to wake up and run. On bare-metal hardware, this was enough as the scheduler should let the RT task run way before the non-RT task wakes up from the msleep(). If it did not, then that would mean the scheduler was broken. But when dealing with virtual machines, this is a different story. If the RT task wakes up on a VCPU, it's up to the host to decide when that task gets to schedule, which can be far behind the time that the non-RT task wakes up. In this case, the test would fail incorrectly. As we are not testing the scheduler, but instead the wake up tracing, we can use completions to wait and not depend on scheduler timings to see if events happen on time.

Tetsuo Handa reported that sporadically the system clock starts counting up too quickly which is enough to confuse the hangcheck timer to print a bogus stall warning. Commit 2a8c0883 "time: Move xtime_nsec adjustment underflow handling timekeeping_adjust" overlooked this exit path: } else return; which should really be a proper exit sequence, fixing the bug as a side effect. Also make the flow more readable by properly balancing curly braces.

This is needed to allow network softirq packet processing to make use of PF_MEMALLOC. Currently softirq context cannot use PF_MEMALLOC due to it not being associated with a task, and therefore not having task flags to fiddle with - thus the gfp to alloc flag mapping ignores the task flags when in interrupts (hard or soft) context. Allowing softirqs to make use of PF_MEMALLOC therefore requires some trickery. This patch borrows the task flags from whatever process happens to be preempted by the softirq. It then modifies the gfp to alloc flags mapping to not exclude task flags in softirq context, and modify the softirq code to save, clear and restore the PF_MEMALLOC flag. The save and clear, ensures the preempted task's PF_MEMALLOC flag doesn't leak into the softirq. The restore ensures a softirq's PF_MEMALLOC flag cannot leak back into the preempted process. This should be safe due to the following reasons Softirqs can run on multiple CPUs sure but the same task should not be executing the same softirq code. Neither should the softirq handler be preempted by any other softirq handler so the flags should not leak to an unrelated softirq. Softirqs re-enable hardware interrupts in __do_softirq() so can be preempted by hardware interrupts so PF_MEMALLOC is inherited by the hard IRQ. However, this is similar to a process in reclaim being preempted by a hardirq. While PF_MEMALLOC is set, gfp_to_alloc_flags() distinguishes between hard and soft irqs and avoids giving a hardirq the ALLOC_NO_WATERMARKS flag. If the softirq is deferred to ksoftirq then its flags may be used instead of a normal tasks but as the softirq cannot be preempted, the PF_MEMALLOC flag does not leak to other code by accident.

When hotadd_new_pgdat() is called to create new pgdat for a new node, a fallback zonelist should be created for the new node. There's code to try to achieve that in hotadd_new_pgdat() as below: /* * The node we allocated has no zone fallback lists. For avoiding * to access not-initialized zonelist, build here. */ mutex_lock(&zonelists_mutex); build_all_zonelists(pgdat, NULL); mutex_unlock(&zonelists_mutex); But it doesn't work as expected. When hotadd_new_pgdat() is called, the new node is still in offline state because node_set_online(nid) hasn't been called yet. And build_all_zonelists() only builds zonelists for online nodes as: for_each_online_node(nid) { pg_data_t *pgdat = NODE_DATA(nid); build_zonelists(pgdat); build_zonelist_cache(pgdat); } Though we hope to create zonelist for the new pgdat, but it doesn't. So add a new parameter "pgdat" the build_all_zonelists() to build pgdat for the new pgdat too.
