During booting of cpu1, there is a short window where cpu1 is online, but not active where cpu1 is occupied by waiting to become active. If cpu0 then decides to schedule something on cpu1 and wait for it to complete, before cpu0 has set cpu1 active, we have a deadlock. Typically it's this CPU frequency transition that happens at this time, so let's just not wait for it to happen, it will happen whenever the CPU eventually comes online instead.

Commit 68b7f715 ("nommu: ptrace support") added definitions for PT_TEXT_ADDR and friends, as well as adding ptrace support for reading from these magic offsets. Unfortunately, this has probably never worked, since ptrace_read_user predicates reading on off < sizeof(struct user), returning -EIO otherwise. This patch moves the offset size check until after we have tried to match it against either a magic value or an offset into pt_regs.

We have lots of infrastructure in place to partition multi-core systems such that we have a group of CPUs that are dedicated to specific task: cgroups, scheduler and interrupt affinity, and cpuisol= boot parameter. Still, kernel code will at times interrupt all CPUs in the system via IPIs for various needs. These IPIs are useful and cannot be avoided altogether, but in certain cases it is possible to interrupt only specific CPUs that have useful work to do and not the entire system. This patch set, inspired by discussions with Peter Zijlstra and Frederic Weisbecker when testing the nohz task patch set, is a first stab at trying to explore doing this by locating the places where such global IPI calls are being made and turning the global IPI into an IPI for a specific group of CPUs. The purpose of the patch set is to get feedback if this is the right way to go for dealing with this issue and indeed, if the issue is even worth dealing with at all. Based on the feedback from this patch set I plan to offer further patches that address similar issue in other code paths. This patch creates an on_each_cpu_mask() and on_each_cpu_cond() infrastructure API (the former derived from existing arch specific versions in Tile and Arm) and uses them to turn several global IPI invocation to per CPU group invocations. Core kernel: on_each_cpu_mask() calls a function on processors specified by cpumask, which may or may not include the local processor. You must not call this function with disabled interrupts or from a hardware interrupt handler or from a bottom half handler. arch/arm: Note that the generic version is a little different then the Arm one: 1. It has the mask as first parameter 2. It calls the function on the calling CPU with interrupts disabled, but this should be OK since the function is called on the other CPUs with interrupts disabled anyway. arch/tile: The API is the same as the tile private one, but the generic version also calls the function on the with interrupts disabled in UP case This is OK since the function is called on the other CPUs with interrupts disabled.

As described in e6fa16ab ("signal: sigprocmask() should do retarget_shared_pending()") the modification of current->blocked is incorrect as we need to check for shared signals we're about to block. Also, use the new helper function introduced in commit 5e6292c0 ("signal: add block_sigmask() for adding sigmask to current->blocked") which centralises the code for updating current->blocked after successfully delivering a signal and reduces the amount of duplicate code across architectures. In the past some architectures got this code wrong, so using this helper function should stop that from happening again.

Before replacing an instruction, the ftrace code determines what the old instruction should be and verifies that that's what's really there in memory before replacing it. This is useful if for example a bug in mcountrecord causes it to record wrong locations. However, in cases where we replace call sites in entry-common.S, these checks are not needed. For these, we currently just memcpy() the memory content and then "verify" it -- this is quite useless and can be removed.

The kexec machine crash code can be called in interrupt context via a sysrq trigger made using the magic key combination. If the irq chip dealing with the serial interrupt is using the fasteoi flow handler, then we will never EOI the interrupt because the interrupt handler will be fatal. In the case of a GIC, this results in the crash kernel not receiving interrupts on that CPU interface. This patch adds code (based on the PowerPC implementation) to EOI any pending interrupts on the crash CPU before masking and disabling all interrupts. Secondary cores are not a problem since they are placed into a cpu_relax() loop via an IPI.

The motivation for this patchset was that I was looking at a way for a qemu-kvm process, to exclude the guest memory from its core dump, which can be quite large. There are already a number of filter flags in /proc/<pid>/coredump_filter, however, these allow one to specify 'types' of kernel memory, not specific address ranges (which is needed in this case). Since there are no more vma flags available, the first patch eliminates the need for the 'VM_ALWAYSDUMP' flag. The flag is used internally by the kernel to mark vdso and vsyscall pages. However, it is simple enough to check if a vma covers a vdso or vsyscall page without the need for this flag. The second patch then replaces the 'VM_ALWAYSDUMP' flag with a new 'VM_NODUMP' flag, which can be set by userspace using new madvise flags: 'MADV_DONTDUMP', and unset via 'MADV_DODUMP'. The core dump filters continue to work the same as before unless 'MADV_DONTDUMP' is set on the region. The qemu code which implements this features is at: http://people.redhat.com/~jbaron/qemu-dump/qemu-dump.patch In my testing the qemu core dump shrunk from 383MB -> 13MB with this patch. I also believe that the 'MADV_DONTDUMP' flag might be useful for security sensitive apps, which might want to select which areas are dumped. This patch: The VM_ALWAYSDUMP flag is currently used by the coredump code to indicate that a vma is part of a vsyscall or vdso section. However, we can determine if a vma is in one these sections by checking it against the gate_vma and checking for a non-NULL return value from arch_vma_name(). Thus, freeing a valuable vma bit.

This is required because we only update the sched_domain tree after we brought the cpu-down. And this is needed so that some tasks can still run while we bring it down, we just don't want new tasks to appear. On cpu-up however the sched_domain tree doesn't yet include the new cpu, so its invisible to the load-balancer, regardless of the active state. So instead of setting the active state after we boot the new cpu (and consequently having to wait for it before enabling interrupts) set the cpu active before we set it online and avoid the whole mess.
