{u,s}time in task_struct are increased every time when the thread\n is interrupted by a tick (timer interrupt).\n\n - When a thread exits, its {u,s}time are added to signal-\u003e{u,s}time,\n after adjusted by task_times().\n\n - When all threads in a thread_group exits, accumulated {u,s}time\n (and also c{u,s}time) in signal struct are added to c{u,s}time\n in signal struct of the group\u0027s parent.\n\nSo {u,s}time in task struct are \"raw\" tick count, while\n{u,s}time and c{u,s}time in signal struct are \"adjusted\" values.\n\nAnd accounted values are used by:\n\n - task_times(), to get cputime of a thread:\n This function returns adjusted values that originates from raw\n {u,s}time and scaled by sum_exec_runtime that accounted by CFS.\n\n - thread_group_cputime(), to get cputime of a thread group:\n This function returns sum of all {u,s}time of living threads in\n the group, plus {u,s}time in the signal struct that is sum of\n adjusted cputimes of all exited threads belonged to the group.\n\nThe problem is the return value of thread_group_cputime(),\nbecause it is mixed sum of \"raw\" value and \"adjusted\" value:\n\n group\u0027s {u,s}time \u003d foreach(thread){{u,s}time} + exited({u,s}time)\n\nThis misbehavior can break {u,s}time monotonicity.\nAssume that if there is a thread that have raw values greater\nthan adjusted values (e.g. interrupted by 1000Hz ticks 50 times\nbut only runs 45ms) and if it exits, cputime will decrease (e.g.\n-5ms).\n\nTo fix this, we could do:\n\n group\u0027s {u,s}time \u003d foreach(t){task_times(t)} + exited({u,s}time)\n\nBut task_times() contains hard divisions, so applying it for\nevery thread should be avoided.\n\nThis patch fixes the above problem in the following way:\n\n - Modify thread\u0027s exit (\u003d __exit_signal()) not to use task_times().\n It means {u,s}time in signal struct accumulates raw values instead\n of adjusted values. As the result it makes thread_group_cputime()\n to return pure sum of \"raw\" values.\n\n - Introduce a new function thread_group_times(*task, *utime, *stime)\n that converts \"raw\" values of thread_group_cputime() to \"adjusted\"\n values, in same calculation procedure as task_times().\n\n - Modify group\u0027s exit (\u003d wait_task_zombie()) to use this introduced\n thread_group_times(). It make c{u,s}time in signal struct to\n have adjusted values like before this patch.\n\n - Replace some thread_group_cputime() by thread_group_times().\n This replacements are only applied where conveys the \"adjusted\"\n cputime to users, and where already uses task_times() near by it.\n (i.e. sys_times(), getrusage(), and /proc/\u003cPID\u003e/stat.)\n\nThis patch have a positive side effect:\n\n - Before this patch, if a group contains many short-life threads\n (e.g. runs 0.9ms and not interrupted by ticks), the group\u0027s\n cputime could be invisible since thread\u0027s cputime was accumulated\n after adjusted: imagine adjustment function as adj(ticks, runtime),\n {adj(0, 0.9) + adj(0, 0.9) + ....} \u003d {0 + 0 + ....} \u003d 0.\n After this patch it will not happen because the adjustment is\n applied after accumulated.\n\nv2:\n - remove if()s, put new variables into signal_struct.\n\nSigned-off-by: Hidetoshi Seto \u003cseto.hidetoshi@jp.fujitsu.com\u003e\nAcked-by: Peter Zijlstra \u003cpeterz@infradead.org\u003e\nCc: Spencer Candland \u003cspencer@bluehost.com\u003e\nCc: Americo Wang \u003cxiyou.wangcong@gmail.com\u003e\nCc: Oleg Nesterov \u003coleg@redhat.com\u003e\nCc: Balbir Singh \u003cbalbir@in.ibm.com\u003e\nCc: Stanislaw Gruszka \u003csgruszka@redhat.com\u003e\nLKML-Reference: \u003c4B162517.8040909@jp.fujitsu.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Ingo Molnar \u003cmingo@elte.hu\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "d99ca3b977fc5a93141304f571475c2af9e6c1c5", "tree": "7665ebdafcef46c310055021562e6629f59eafd5", "parents": [ "be8147e68625a1adb111acfd6b98a492be4b74d0" ], "author": { "name": "Hidetoshi Seto", "email": "seto.hidetoshi@jp.fujitsu.com", "time": "Wed Dec 02 17:26:47 2009 +0900" }, "committer": { "name": "Ingo Molnar", "email": "mingo@elte.hu", "time": "Wed Dec 02 17:32:39 2009 +0100" }, "message": "sched, cputime: Cleanups related to task_times()\n\n- Remove if({u,s}t)s because no one call it with NULL now.\n- Use cputime_{add,sub}().\n- Add ifndef-endif for prev_{u,s}time since they are used\n only when !VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING.\n\nSigned-off-by: Hidetoshi Seto \u003cseto.hidetoshi@jp.fujitsu.com\u003e\nCc: Peter Zijlstra \u003cpeterz@infradead.org\u003e\nCc: Spencer Candland \u003cspencer@bluehost.com\u003e\nCc: Americo Wang \u003cxiyou.wangcong@gmail.com\u003e\nCc: Oleg Nesterov \u003coleg@redhat.com\u003e\nCc: Balbir Singh \u003cbalbir@in.ibm.com\u003e\nCc: Stanislaw Gruszka \u003csgruszka@redhat.com\u003e\nLKML-Reference: \u003c4B1624C7.7040302@jp.fujitsu.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Ingo Molnar \u003cmingo@elte.hu\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "fa1452e808732ae10e8b1267fd75fc2d028d634b", "tree": "c6c3031fa072b168fceef530f38e5166f21ed17d", "parents": [ "a49ed0bf427a8328a3296eebedc7697fe5098dbf" ], "author": { "name": "Hiroshi Shimamoto", "email": "h-shimamoto@ct.jp.nec.com", "time": "Mon Nov 30 14:59:44 2009 +0900" }, "committer": { "name": "Ingo Molnar", "email": "mingo@elte.hu", "time": "Wed Dec 02 10:24:37 2009 +0100" }, "message": "locking, task_struct: Reduce size on TRACE_IRQFLAGS and 64bit\n\nReorder task_struct field for TRACE_IRQFLAGS to remove padding\non 64-bit.\n\nSigned-off-by: Hiroshi Shimamoto \u003ch-shimamoto@ct.jp.nec.com\u003e\nCc: Peter Zijlstra \u003ca.p.zijlstra@chello.nl\u003e\nLKML-Reference: \u003c4B135F50.8070302@ct.jp.nec.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Ingo Molnar \u003cmingo@elte.hu\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "d5b7c78e975302a1bab28263266c39ecb71acad4", "tree": "47d9a18b2e81b3f93faf89b548b50beff29dd4fe", "parents": [ "d180c5bccec02612256fd8076ff3c1fac3429553" ], "author": { "name": "Hidetoshi Seto", "email": "seto.hidetoshi@jp.fujitsu.com", "time": "Thu Nov 26 14:49:05 2009 +0900" }, "committer": { "name": "Ingo Molnar", "email": "mingo@elte.hu", "time": "Thu Nov 26 12:59:20 2009 +0100" }, "message": "sched: Remove task_{u,s,g}time()\n\nNow all task_{u,s}time() pairs are replaced by task_times().\nAnd task_gtime() is too simple to be an inline function.\n\nCleanup them all.\n\nSigned-off-by: Hidetoshi Seto \u003cseto.hidetoshi@jp.fujitsu.com\u003e\nAcked-by: Peter Zijlstra \u003cpeterz@infradead.org\u003e\nCc: Stanislaw Gruszka \u003csgruszka@redhat.com\u003e\nCc: Spencer Candland \u003cspencer@bluehost.com\u003e\nCc: Oleg Nesterov \u003coleg@redhat.com\u003e\nCc: Balbir Singh \u003cbalbir@in.ibm.com\u003e\nCc: Americo Wang \u003cxiyou.wangcong@gmail.com\u003e\nLKML-Reference: \u003c4B0E16D1.70902@jp.fujitsu.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Ingo Molnar \u003cmingo@elte.hu\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "d180c5bccec02612256fd8076ff3c1fac3429553", "tree": "1ef4a45c81531645640380965916c68bbe7f6abb", "parents": [ "16bc67edeb49b531940b2ba6c183780a1b5c472d" ], "author": { "name": "Hidetoshi Seto", "email": "seto.hidetoshi@jp.fujitsu.com", "time": "Thu Nov 26 14:48:30 2009 +0900" }, "committer": { "name": "Ingo Molnar", "email": "mingo@elte.hu", "time": "Thu Nov 26 12:59:19 2009 +0100" }, "message": "sched: Introduce task_times() to replace task_{u,s}time() pair\n\nFunctions task_{u,s}time() are called in pair in almost all\ncases.

Add a keyctl to install a process\u0027s session keyring on its parent [try #6]\n\nAdd a keyctl to install a process\u0027s session keyring onto its parent. This\nreplaces the parent\u0027s session keyring. Because the COW credential code does\nnot permit one process to change another process\u0027s credentials directly, the\nchange is deferred until userspace next starts executing again. Normally this\nwill be after a wait*() syscall.\n\nTo support this, three new security hooks have been provided:\ncred_alloc_blank() to allocate unset security creds, cred_transfer() to fill in\nthe blank security creds and key_session_to_parent() - which asks the LSM if\nthe process may replace its parent\u0027s session keyring.\n\nThe replacement may only happen if the process has the same ownership details\nas its parent, and the process has LINK permission on the session keyring, and\nthe session keyring is owned by the process, and the LSM permits it.\n\nNote that this requires alteration to each architecture\u0027s notify_resume path.\nThis has been done for all arches barring blackfin, m68k* and xtensa, all of\nwhich need assembly alteration to support TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME. This allows the\nreplacement to be performed at the point the parent process resumes userspace\nexecution.\n\nThis allows the userspace AFS pioctl emulation to fully emulate newpag() and\nthe VIOCSETTOK and VIOCSETTOK2 pioctls, all of which require the ability to\nalter the parent process\u0027s PAG membership. However, since kAFS doesn\u0027t use\nPAGs per se, but rather dumps the keys into the session keyring, the session\nkeyring of the parent must be replaced if, for example, VIOCSETTOK is passed\nthe newpag flag.\n\nThis can be tested with the following program:\n\n\t#include \u003cstdio.h\u003e\n\t#include \u003cstdlib.h\u003e\n\t#include \u003ckeyutils.h\u003e\n\n\t#define KEYCTL_SESSION_TO_PARENT\t18\n\n\t#define OSERROR(X, S) do { if ((long)(X) \u003d\u003d -1) { perror(S); exit(1); } } while(0)\n\n\tint main(int argc, char **argv)\n\t{\n\t\tkey_serial_t keyring, key;\n\t\tlong ret;\n\n\t\tkeyring \u003d keyctl_join_session_keyring(argv[1]);\n\t\tOSERROR(keyring, \"keyctl_join_session_keyring\");\n\n\t\tkey \u003d add_key(\"user\", \"a\", \"b\", 1, keyring);\n\t\tOSERROR(key, \"add_key\");\n\n\t\tret \u003d keyctl(KEYCTL_SESSION_TO_PARENT);\n\t\tOSERROR(ret, \"KEYCTL_SESSION_TO_PARENT\");\n\n\t\treturn 0;\n\t}\n\nCompiled and linked with -lkeyutils, you should see something like:\n\n\t[dhowells@andromeda ~]$ keyctl show\n\tSession Keyring\n\t -3 --alswrv 4043 4043 keyring: _ses\n\t355907932 --alswrv 4043 -1 \\_ keyring: _uid.4043\n\t[dhowells@andromeda ~]$ /tmp/newpag\n\t[dhowells@andromeda ~]$ keyctl show\n\tSession Keyring\n\t -3 --alswrv 4043 4043 keyring: _ses\n\t1055658746 --alswrv 4043 4043 \\_ user: a\n\t[dhowells@andromeda ~]$ /tmp/newpag hello\n\t[dhowells@andromeda ~]$ keyctl show\n\tSession Keyring\n\t -3 --alswrv 4043 4043 keyring: hello\n\t340417692 --alswrv 4043 4043 \\_ user: a\n\nWhere the test program creates a new session keyring, sticks a user key named\n\u0027a\u0027 into it and then installs it on its parent.\n\nSigned-off-by: David Howells \u003cdhowells@redhat.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: James Morris \u003cjmorris@namei.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "8f0dfc34e9b323a028c2ec41abb7e9de477b7a94", "tree": "fa7e44d9ad3eb22517f0724e71f9812f71a16ae2", "parents": [ "f14eff1cc2f418a7c5e23aedc6a1bdca3343b871" ], "author": { "name": "Arjan van de Ven", "email": "arjan@linux.intel.com", "time": "Mon Jul 20 11:26:58 2009 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Ingo Molnar", "email": "mingo@elte.hu", "time": "Wed Sep 02 08:44:08 2009 +0200" }, "message": "sched: Provide iowait counters\n\nFor counting how long an application has been waiting for\n(disk) IO, there currently is only the HZ sample driven\ninformation available, while for all other counters in this\nclass, a high resolution version is available via\nCONFIG_SCHEDSTATS.\n\nIn order to make an improved bootchart tool possible, we also\nneed a higher resolution version of the iowait time.\n\nThis patch below adds this scheduler statistic to the kernel.\n\nSigned-off-by: Arjan van de Ven \u003carjan@linux.intel.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Peter Zijlstra \u003ca.p.zijlstra@chello.nl\u003e\nLKML-Reference: \u003c4A64B813.1080506@linux.intel.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Ingo Molnar \u003cmingo@elte.hu\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "f14eff1cc2f418a7c5e23aedc6a1bdca3343b871", "tree": "fd8d5f7ed2b2e94eff4007e8da0e9ed205d8d5c9", "parents": [ "84e9dabf6e6a78928c6a1a8ba235c9fb0908d0f8", "326ba5010a5429a5a528b268b36a5900d4ab0eba" ], "author": { "name": "Ingo Molnar", "email": "mingo@elte.hu", "time": "Wed Sep 02 08:20:32 2009 +0200" }, "committer": { "name": "Ingo Molnar", "email": "mingo@elte.hu", "time": "Wed Sep 02 08:20:35 2009 +0200" }, "message": "Merge commit \u0027v2.6.31-rc8\u0027 into sched/core\n\nMerge reason: bump from rc5 to rc8, but also pick up TP_perf_assign()\n API, a patch will be queued that depends on it.\n\nSigned-off-by: Ingo Molnar \u003cmingo@elte.hu\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "868489660dabc0c28087cca3dbc1adbbc398c6fe", "tree": "cf991ec94ce29bccfef27213107748810c51a1ca", "parents": [ "dd5d19bafd90d33043a4a14b2e2d98612caa293c" ], "author": { "name": "Paul E.

Then, vfork() parent (job scheduler)\nlost OOM immune and it was killed.\n\nActually, fork-setting-exec idiom is very frequently used in userland program.\nWe must not break this assumption.\n\nThen, this patch revert commit 2ff05b2b and related commit.\n\nReverted commit list\n---------------------\n- commit 2ff05b2b4e (oom: move oom_adj value from task_struct to mm_struct)\n- commit 4d8b9135c3 (oom: avoid unnecessary mm locking and scanning for OOM_DISABLE)\n- commit 8123681022 (oom: only oom kill exiting tasks with attached memory)\n- commit 933b787b57 (mm: copy over oom_adj value at fork time)\n\nSigned-off-by: KOSAKI Motohiro \u003ckosaki.motohiro@jp.fujitsu.com\u003e\nCc: Paul Menage \u003cmenage@google.com\u003e\nCc: David Rientjes \u003crientjes@google.com\u003e\nCc: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki \u003ckamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com\u003e\nCc: Rik van Riel \u003criel@redhat.com\u003e\nCc: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@linux-foundation.org\u003e\nCc: Oleg Nesterov \u003coleg@redhat.com\u003e\nCc: Nick Piggin \u003cnpiggin@suse.de\u003e\nCc: Mel Gorman \u003cmel@csn.ul.ie\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@linux-foundation.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@linux-foundation.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "1314562a9ae5f39f6f595656023c1baf970831ef", "tree": "218abb315cecfe0f3a50e1064580ee6d8b73ae6f", "parents": [ "8e5b59a2d728e6963b35dba8bb36e0b70267462e" ], "author": { "name": "Hiroshi Shimamoto", "email": "h-shimamoto@ct.jp.nec.com", "time": "Tue Aug 18 15:06:02 2009 +0900" }, "committer": { "name": "Ingo Molnar", "email": "mingo@elte.hu", "time": "Tue Aug 18 15:45:11 2009 +0200" }, "message": "sched, task_struct: stack_canary is not needed without CC_STACKPROTECTOR\n\nThe field stack_canary is only used with CC_STACKPROTECTOR.\nThis patch reduces task_struct size without CC_STACKPROTECTOR.\n\nSigned-off-by: Hiroshi Shimamoto \u003ch-shimamoto@ct.jp.nec.com\u003e\nLKML-Reference: \u003c4A8A44CA.2020701@ct.jp.nec.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Ingo Molnar \u003cmingo@elte.hu\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "012a5299a29672039f42944a37984558393ef769", "tree": "de0815c67cf4156c32c8b552cd7448387cc391b0", "parents": [ "da34d4248bd2013ee64ce51e63ec0ebd1f32b46c", "90bc1a658a53f8832ee799685703977a450e5af9" ], "author": { "name": "James Morris", "email": "jmorris@namei.org", "time": "Thu Aug 06 08:55:03 2009 +1000" }, "committer": { "name": "James Morris", "email": "jmorris@namei.org", "time": "Thu Aug 06 08:55:03 2009 +1000" }, "message": "Merge branch \u0027master\u0027 into next\n" }, { "commit": "8356b5f9c424e5831715abbce747197c30d1fd71", "tree": "87de74cc86f6eebf88eba9a4c335614787d984c5", "parents": [ "42c4ab41a176ee784c0f28c0b29025a8fc34f05a" ], "author": { "name": "Stanislaw Gruszka", "email": "sgruszka@redhat.com", "time": "Wed Jul 29 12:15:27 2009 +0200" }, "committer": { "name": "Ingo Molnar", "email": "mingo@elte.hu", "time": "Mon Aug 03 14:48:35 2009 +0200" }, "message": "itimers: Fix periodic tics precision\n\nMeasure ITIMER_PROF and ITIMER_VIRT timers interval error\nbetween real ticks and requested by user.

dynamically allocated perf_counter_context struct. The\nmain reason for doing is this is to allow us to transfer a\nperf_counter_context from one task to another when we do lazy PMU\nswitching in a later patch.\n\nThis has a few side-benefits: the task_struct becomes a little smaller,\nwe save some memory because only tasks that have perf_counters attached\nget a perf_counter_context allocated for them, and we can remove the\ninclusion of \u003clinux/perf_counter.h\u003e in sched.h, meaning that we don\u0027t\nend up recompiling nearly everything whenever perf_counter.h changes.\n\nThe perf_counter_context structures are reference-counted and freed\nwhen the last reference is dropped. A context can have references\nfrom its task and the counters on its task. Counters can outlive the\ntask so it is possible that a context will be freed well after its\ntask has exited.\n\nContexts are allocated on fork if the parent had a context, or\notherwise the first time that a per-task counter is created on a task.\nIn the latter case, we set the context pointer in the task struct\nlocklessly using an atomic compare-and-exchange operation in case we\nraced with some other task in creating a context for the subject task.\n\nThis also removes the task pointer from the perf_counter struct. The\ntask pointer was not used anywhere and would make it harder to move a\ncontext from one task to another. Anything that needed to know which\ntask a counter was attached to was already using counter-\u003ectx-\u003etask.\n\nThe __perf_counter_init_context function moves up in perf_counter.c\nso that it can be called from find_get_context, and now initializes\nthe refcount, but is otherwise unchanged.\n\nWe were potentially calling list_del_counter twice: once from\n__perf_counter_exit_task when the task exits and once from\n__perf_counter_remove_from_context when the counter\u0027s fd gets closed.\nThis adds a check in list_del_counter so it doesn\u0027t do anything if\nthe counter has already been removed from the lists.\n\nSince perf_counter_task_sched_in doesn\u0027t do anything if the task doesn\u0027t\nhave a context, and leaves cpuctx-\u003etask_ctx \u003d NULL, this adds code to\n__perf_install_in_context to set cpuctx-\u003etask_ctx if necessary, i.e. in\nthe case where the current task adds the first counter to itself and\nthus creates a context for itself.\n\nThis also adds similar code to __perf_counter_enable to handle a\nsimilar situation which can arise when the counters have been disabled\nusing prctl; that also leaves cpuctx-\u003etask_ctx \u003d NULL.\n\n[ Impact: refactor counter context management to prepare for new feature ]\n\nSigned-off-by: Paul Mackerras \u003cpaulus@samba.org\u003e\nAcked-by: Peter Zijlstra \u003ca.p.zijlstra@chello.nl\u003e\nCc: Corey Ashford \u003ccjashfor@linux.vnet.ibm.com\u003e\nCc: Marcelo Tosatti \u003cmtosatti@redhat.com\u003e\nCc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo \u003cacme@redhat.com\u003e\nLKML-Reference: \u003c18966.10075.781053.231153@cargo.ozlabs.ibm.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Ingo Molnar \u003cmingo@elte.hu\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "4200efd9acda4accf24640f1e77d24fdcdb524df", "tree": "ffeda24ae6a9c1b8ca94615e261434d925d2ed2c", "parents": [ "2d02494f5a90f2e4b3c4c6acc85ec94674cdc431" ], "author": { "name": "Ingo Molnar", "email": "mingo@elte.hu", "time": "Tue May 19 09:22:19 2009 +0200" }, "committer": { "name": "Ingo Molnar", "email": "mingo@elte.hu", "time": "Tue May 19 09:22:19 2009 +0200" }, "message": "sched: properly define the sched_group::cpumask and sched_domain::span fields\n\nProperly document the variable-size structure tricks we are doing\nwrt. struct sched_group and sched_domain, and use the field[0] GCC\nextension instead of defining a vla array.\n\nDont use unions for this, as pointed out by Linus.\n\n[ Impact: cleanup, un-confuse Sparse and LLVM ]\n\nReported-by: Jeff Garzik \u003cjeff@garzik.org\u003e\nAcked-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@linux-foundation.org\u003e\nLKML-Reference: \u003calpine.LFD.2.01.0905180850110.3301@localhost.localdomain\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Ingo Molnar \u003cmingo@elte.hu\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "690cc3ffe33ac4a2857583c22d4c6244ae11684d", "tree": "47da7801ef7539260a1a64b41f43ab8131e4f551", "parents": [ "69e3c75f4d541a6eb151b3ef91f34033cb3ad6e1" ], "author": { "name": "Eric W.
