For this race to trigger the process that proc_pid_readdir stops at\nmust exit before readdir is called again.\n\nThis can cause ps to fail to report processes, and it is in violation of\nposix guarantees and normal application expectations with respect to\nreaddir.\n\nCurrently there is no way to work around this problem in user space short\nof providing a gargantuan buffer to user space so the directory read all\nhappens in on system call.\n\nThis patch implements the normal directory semantics for proc, that\nguarantee that a directory entry that is neither created nor destroyed\nwhile reading the directory entry will be returned. For directory that are\neither created or destroyed during the readdir you may or may not see them.\n Furthermore you may seek to a directory offset you have previously seen.\n\nThese are the guarantee that ext[23] provides and that posix requires, and\nmore importantly that user space expects. Plus it is a simple semantic to\nimplement reliable service. It is just a matter of calling readdir a\nsecond time if you are wondering if something new has show up.\n\nThese better semantics are implemented by scanning through the pids in\nnumerical order and by making the file offset a pid plus a fixed offset.\n\nThe pid scan happens on the pid bitmap, which when you look at it is\nremarkably efficient for a brute force algorithm. Given that a typical\ncache line is 64 bytes and thus covers space for 64*8 \u003d\u003d 200 pids. There\nare only 40 cache lines for the entire 32K pid space. A typical system\nwill have 100 pids or more so this is actually fewer cache lines we have to\nlook at to scan a linked list, and the worst case of having to scan the\nentire pid bitmap is pretty reasonable.\n\nIf we need something more efficient we can go to a more efficient data\nstructure for indexing the pids, but for now what we have should be\nsufficient.\n\nIn addition this takes no additional locks and is actually less code than\nwhat we are doing now.\n\nAlso another very subtle bug in this area has been fixed.

The core dump will be\nwritten to the standard input of that program instead of to a file.\n\nThis is useful for having automatic core dump analysis without filling up\ndisks. The program can do some simple analysis and save only a summary of\nthe core dump.\n\nThe core dump proces will run with the privileges and in the name space of\nthe process that caused the core dump.\n\nI also increased the core pattern size to 128 bytes so that longer command\nlines fit.\n\nMost of the changes comes from allowing core dumps without seeks. They are\nfairly straight forward though.\n\nOne small incompatibility is that if someone had a core pattern previously\nthat started with \u0027|\u0027 they will get suddenly new behaviour. I think that\u0027s\nunlikely to be a real problem though.\n\nAdditional background:\n\n\u003e Very nice, do you happen to have a program that can accept this kind of\n\u003e input for crash dumps? I\u0027m guessing that the embedded people will\n\u003e really want this functionality.\n\nI had a cheesy demo/prototype. Basically it wrote the dump to a file again,\nran gdb on it to get a backtrace and wrote the summary to a shared directory.\nThen there was a simple CGI script to generate a \"top 10\" crashes HTML\nlisting.\n\nUnfortunately this still had the disadvantage to needing full disk space for a\ndump except for deleting it afterwards (in fact it was worse because over the\npipe holes didn\u0027t work so if you have a holey address map it would require\nmore space).\n\nFortunately gdb seems to be happy to handle /proc/pid/fd/xxx input pipes as\ncores (at least it worked with zsh\u0027s \u003d(cat core) syntax), so it would be\nlikely possible to do it without temporary space with a simple wrapper that\ncalls it in the right way. I ran out of time before doing that though.\n\nThe demo prototype scripts weren\u0027t very good. If there is really interest I\ncan dig them out (they are currently on a laptop disk on the desk with the\nlaptop itself being in service), but I would recommend to rewrite them for any\nserious application of this and fix the disk space problem.\n\nAlso to be really useful it should probably find a way to automatically fetch\nthe debuginfos (I cheated and just installed them in advance). If nobody else\ndoes it I can probably do the rewrite myself again at some point.\n\nMy hope at some point was that desktops would support it in their builtin\ncrash reporters, but at least the KDE people I talked too seemed to be happy\nwith their user space only solution.\n\nAlan sayeth:\n\n I don\u0027t believe that piping as such as neccessarily the right model, but\n the ability to intercept and processes core dumps from user space is asked\n for by many enterprise users as well. They want to know about, capture,\n analyse and process core dumps, often centrally and in automated form.\n\n[akpm@osdl.org: loff_t !\u003d unsigned long]\nSigned-off-by: Andi Kleen \u003cak@suse.de\u003e\nCc: Alan Cox \u003calan@lxorguk.ukuu.org.uk\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "e239ca540594cff00adcce163dc332b27015d8e5", "tree": "8dfb5c0be4864d738df5a5282e56d9e57ce8261f", "parents": [ "d6cbd281d189977b38eac7eb2a4678de19b6b483" ], "author": { "name": "Andi Kleen", "email": "ak@suse.de", "time": "Sat Sep 30 23:29:27 2006 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@g5.osdl.org", "time": "Sun Oct 01 00:39:33 2006 -0700" }, "message": "[PATCH] Create call_usermodehelper_pipe()\n\nA new member in the ever growing family of call_usermode* functions is\nborn.

The\ncode that today makes this tradeoff just does a rather simple algorithm;\nhowever this is not good enough: There are devices and use cases where a\nlower latency is required than that the higher power saving states provide.\n An example would be audio playback, but another example is the ipw2100\nwireless driver that right now has a very direct and ugly acpi hook to\ndisable some higher power states randomly when it gets certain types of\nerror.\n\nThe proposed solution is to have an interface where drivers can\n\n* announce the maximum latency (in microseconds) that they can deal with\n* modify this latency\n* give up their constraint\n\nand a function where the code that decides on power saving strategy can\nquery the current global desired maximum.\n\nThis patch has a user of each side: on the consumer side, ACPI is patched\nto use this, on the producer side the ipw2100 driver is patched.\n\nA generic maximum latency is also registered of 2 timer ticks (more and you\nlose accurate time tracking after all).\n\nWhile the existing users of the patch are x86 specific, the infrastructure\nis not.

Some drivers that use SCSI facilities -\n \t such as USB storage - end up disabled indirectly from this.\n\n (*) Various block-based device drivers, such as IDE and the old CDROM\n \t drivers.\n\n (*) MTD blockdev handling and FTL.\n\n (*) JFFS - which uses set_bdev_super(), something it could avoid doing by\n \t taking a leaf out of JFFS2\u0027s book.\n\n (*) Makes most of the contents of linux/blkdev.h, linux/buffer_head.h and\n linux/elevator.h contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK being set. sector_div() is,\n however, still used in places, and so is still available.\n\n (*) Also made contingent are the contents of linux/mpage.h, linux/genhd.h and\n parts of linux/fs.h.\n\n (*) Makes a number of files in fs/ contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK.\n\n (*) Makes mm/bounce.c (bounce buffering) contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK.\n\n (*) set_page_dirty() doesn\u0027t call __set_page_dirty_buffers() if CONFIG_BLOCK\n is not enabled.\n\n (*) fs/no-block.c is created to hold out-of-line stubs and things that are\n required when CONFIG_BLOCK is not set:\n\n (*) Default blockdev file operations (to give error ENODEV on opening).\n\n (*) Makes some /proc changes:\n\n (*) /proc/devices does not list any blockdevs.\n\n (*) /proc/diskstats and /proc/partitions are contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK.\n\n (*) Makes some compat ioctl handling contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK.\n\n (*) If CONFIG_BLOCK is not defined, makes sys_quotactl() return -ENODEV if\n given command other than Q_SYNC or if a special device is specified.\n\n (*) In init/do_mounts.c, no reference is made to the blockdev routines if\n CONFIG_BLOCK is not defined. This does not prohibit NFS roots or JFFS2.\n\n (*) The bdflush, ioprio_set and ioprio_get syscalls can now be absent (return\n error ENOSYS by way of cond_syscall if so).\n\n (*) The seclvl_bd_claim() and seclvl_bd_release() security calls do nothing if\n CONFIG_BLOCK is not set, since they can\u0027t then happen.\n\nSigned-Off-By: David Howells \u003cdhowells@redhat.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Jens Axboe \u003caxboe@kernel.dk\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "07f3f05c1e3052b8656129b2a5aca9f888241a34", "tree": "3338b004d518a0d2189efdc3fb88e94e1c02c0ce", "parents": [ "65e6f5bc8149165efb9d7bdbd142bb837d5edfeb" ], "author": { "name": "David Howells", "email": "dhowells@redhat.com", "time": "Sat Sep 30 20:52:18 2006 +0200" }, "committer": { "name": "Jens Axboe", "email": "axboe@kernel.dk", "time": "Sat Sep 30 20:52:18 2006 +0200" }, "message": "[PATCH] BLOCK: Move extern declarations out of fs/*.c into header files [try #6]\n\nCreate a new header file, fs/internal.h, for common definitions local to the\nsources in the fs/ directory.\n\nMove extern definitions that should be in header files from fs/*.c to\nfs/internal.h or other main header files where they span directories.\n\nSigned-Off-By: David Howells \u003cdhowells@redhat.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Jens Axboe \u003caxboe@kernel.dk\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "0d67a46df0125e20d14f12dbd3646f1f1bf23e8c", "tree": "8e823eedbc068e3a1ed3a4af6696a43a48fffa0a", "parents": [ "cf9a2ae8d49948f861b56e5333530e491a9da190" ], "author": { "name": "David Howells", "email": "dhowells@redhat.com", "time": "Tue Aug 29 19:05:56 2006 +0100" }, "committer": { "name": "Jens Axboe", "email": "axboe@nelson.home.kernel.dk", "time": "Sat Sep 30 20:31:20 2006 +0200" }, "message": "[PATCH] BLOCK: Remove duplicate declaration of exit_io_context() [try #6]\n\nRemove the duplicate declaration of exit_io_context() from linux/sched.h.\n\nSigned-Off-By: David Howells \u003cdhowells@redhat.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Jens Axboe \u003caxboe@kernel.dk\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "34596dc9e59d7bece16fe5aba08116b49465da26", "tree": "75e09786a8ff8db3a69a5c82663f97d317e59e46", "parents": [ "120b114237e2461fb4fa437c5c37edf014c916b9" ], "author": { "name": "Andi Kleen", "email": "ak@suse.de", "time": "Sat Sep 30 01:47:55 2006 +0200" }, "committer": { "name": "Andi Kleen", "email": "andi@basil.nowhere.org", "time": "Sat Sep 30 01:47:55 2006 +0200" }, "message": "[PATCH] Define vsyscall cache as blob to make clearer that user space shouldn\u0027t use it\n\nSigned-off-by: Andi Kleen \u003cak@suse.de\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "29cbc78b90a73ad80f2f58ba2927956cf663abed", "tree": "e72fdb9c1c055da47b4cd8834bc944af8efc1ed8", "parents": [ "013bf2c50ed943e9c23a2145d3ea7c4d88cda310" ], "author": { "name": "Andi Kleen", "email": "ak@suse.de", "time": "Sat Sep 30 01:47:55 2006 +0200" }, "committer": { "name": "Andi Kleen", "email": "andi@basil.nowhere.org", "time": "Sat Sep 30 01:47:55 2006 +0200" }, "message": "[PATCH] x86: Clean up x86 NMI sysctls\n\nUse prototypes in headers\nDon\u0027t define panic_on_unrecovered_nmi for all architectures\n\nCc: dzickus@redhat.com\n\nSigned-off-by: Andi Kleen \u003cak@suse.de\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "181b64803661209cda64e5e874ad75f373a69de8", "tree": "0e0ee378b98e5ee72aeae428b1f155d031fe2597", "parents": [ "683e91cbd0582cb8e63daaf0429e0a62be9cc421" ], "author": { "name": "Paul Jackson", "email": "pj@sgi.com", "time": "Fri Sep 29 02:01:48 2006 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@g5.osdl.org", "time": "Fri Sep 29 09:18:25 2006 -0700" }, "message": "[PATCH] cpuset: fix obscure attach_task vs exiting race\n\nFix obscure race condition in kernel/cpuset.c attach_task() code.\n\nThere is basically zero chance of anyone accidentally being harmed by this\nrace.\n\nIt requires a special \u0027micro-stress\u0027 load and a special timing loop hacks\nin the kernel to hit in less than an hour, and even then you\u0027d have to hit\nit hundreds or thousands of times, followed by some unusual and senseless\ncpuset configuration requests, including removing the top cpuset, to cause\nany visibly harm affects.\n\nOne could, with perhaps a few days or weeks of such effort, get the\nreference count on the top cpuset below zero, and manage to crash the\nkernel by asking to remove the top cpuset.\n\nI found it by code inspection.\n\nThe race was introduced when \u0027the_top_cpuset_hack\u0027 was introduced, and one\npiece of code was not updated. An old check for a possibly null task\ncpuset pointer needed to be changed to a check for a task marked\nPF_EXITING. The pointer can\u0027t be null anymore, thanks to\nthe_top_cpuset_hack (documented in kernel/cpuset.c).

In that\ncase, the wrong cpuset reference counter would be decremented.\n\nThe fix is trivial. Instead of failing the system call if the tasks cpuset\npointer is null here, fail it if the task is in PF_EXITING state.\n\nThe code for \u0027the_top_cpuset_hack\u0027 that changes an exiting tasks cpuset to\nthe top_cpuset is done without locking, so could happen at anytime. But it\nis done during the exit handling, after the PF_EXITING flag is set. So if\nwe verify that a task is still not PF_EXITING after we copy out its cpuset\npointer (into \u0027oldcs\u0027, below), we know that \u0027oldcs\u0027 is not one of these\nhack references to the top_cpuset.\n\nSigned-off-by: Paul Jackson \u003cpj@sgi.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "03cbc358aab3faf34bfeaa02206fa660127e9b3f", "tree": "8d95237532390a1beeef37158174fd045b0f8819", "parents": [ "632dd2053a1146c826ceb6f26ab689389c05e751" ], "author": { "name": "Ingo Molnar", "email": "mingo@elte.hu", "time": "Fri Sep 29 02:01:46 2006 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@g5.osdl.org", "time": "Fri Sep 29 09:18:25 2006 -0700" }, "message": "[PATCH] lockdep core: improve the lock-chain-hash\n\nWith CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC turned off i was getting sporadic failures in\nthe locking self-test:\n\n ------------\u003e\n | Locking API testsuite:\n ----------------------------------------------------------------------------\n | spin |wlock |rlock |mutex | wsem | rsem |\n --------------------------------------------------------------------------\n A-A deadlock: ok | ok | ok | ok | ok | ok |\n A-B-B-A deadlock: ok | ok | ok | ok | ok | ok |\n A-B-B-C-C-A deadlock: ok | ok | ok | ok | ok | ok |\n A-B-C-A-B-C deadlock: ok | ok | ok | ok | ok | ok |\n A-B-B-C-C-D-D-A deadlock: ok |FAILED| ok | ok | ok | ok |\n A-B-C-D-B-D-D-A deadlock: ok | ok | ok | ok | ok | ok |\n A-B-C-D-B-C-D-A deadlock: ok | ok | ok | ok | ok |FAILED|\n\nafter much debugging it turned out to be caused by accidental chain-hash\nkey collisions.

Make this top cpus file read-only.\n\nOn systems that have cpusets configured in their kernel, but that aren\u0027t\nactively using cpusets (for some distros, this covers the majority of\nsystems) all tasks end up in the top cpuset.\n\nIf that system does support memory hotplug, then these tasks cannot make\nuse of memory nodes that are added after system boot, because the memory\nnodes are not allowed in the top cpuset. This is a surprising regression\nover earlier kernels that didn\u0027t have cpusets enabled.\n\nOne key motivation for this change is to remain consistent with the\nbehaviour for the top_cpuset\u0027s \u0027cpus\u0027, which is also read-only, and which\nautomatically tracks the cpu_online_map.\n\nThis change also has the minor benefit that it fixes a long standing,\nlittle noticed, minor bug in cpusets. The cpuset performance tweak to\nshort circuit the cpuset_zone_allowed() check on systems with just a single\ncpuset (see \u0027number_of_cpusets\u0027, in linux/cpuset.h) meant that simply\nchanging the \u0027mems\u0027 of the top_cpuset had no affect, even though the change\n(the write system call) appeared to succeed. With the following change,\nthat write to the \u0027mems\u0027 file fails -EACCES, and the \u0027mems\u0027 file stubbornly\nrefuses to be changed via user space writes. Thus no one should be mislead\ninto thinking they\u0027ve changed the top_cpusets\u0027s \u0027mems\u0027 when in affect they\nhaven\u0027t.\n\nIn order to keep the behaviour of cpusets consistent between systems\nactively making use of them and systems not using them, this patch changes\nthe behaviour of the \u0027mems\u0027 file in the top (root) cpuset, making it read\nonly, and making it automatically track the value of node_online_map. Thus\ntasks in the top cpuset will have automatic use of hot plugged memory nodes\nallowed by their cpuset.\n\n[akpm@osdl.org: build fix]\n[bunk@stusta.de: build fix]\nSigned-off-by: Paul Jackson \u003cpj@sgi.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Adrian Bunk \u003cbunk@stusta.de\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "c394cc9fbb367f87faa2228ec2eabacd2d4701c6", "tree": "2177214ac92b3a7ac21cb2632786c9de728c3868", "parents": [ "55a101f8f71a3d3dbda7b5c77083ffe47552f831" ], "author": { "name": "Oleg Nesterov", "email": "oleg@tv-sign.ru", "time": "Fri Sep 29 02:01:11 2006 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@g5.osdl.org", "time": "Fri Sep 29 09:18:21 2006 -0700" }, "message": "[PATCH] introduce TASK_DEAD state\n\nI am not sure about this patch, I am asking Ingo to take a decision.\n\ntask_struct-\u003estate \u003d\u003d EXIT_DEAD is a very special case, to avoid a confusion\nit makes sense to introduce a new state, TASK_DEAD, while EXIT_DEAD should\nlive only in -\u003eexit_state as documented in sched.h.\n\nNote that this state is not visible to user-space, get_task_state() masks off\nunsuitable states.\n\nSigned-off-by: Oleg Nesterov \u003coleg@tv-sign.ru\u003e\nCc: Ingo Molnar \u003cmingo@elte.hu\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "55a101f8f71a3d3dbda7b5c77083ffe47552f831", "tree": "52706df201efd82d09bed39562502b4caa357af4", "parents": [ "29b884921634e1e01cbd276e1c9b8fc07a7e4a90" ], "author": { "name": "Oleg Nesterov", "email": "oleg@tv-sign.ru", "time": "Fri Sep 29 02:01:10 2006 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@g5.osdl.org", "time": "Fri Sep 29 09:18:20 2006 -0700" }, "message": "[PATCH] kill PF_DEAD flag\n\nAfter the previous change (-\u003eflags \u0026 PF_DEAD) \u003c\u003d\u003e (-\u003estate \u003d\u003d EXIT_DEAD), we\ndon\u0027t need PF_DEAD any longer.\n\nSigned-off-by: Oleg Nesterov \u003coleg@tv-sign.ru\u003e\nCc: Ingo Molnar \u003cmingo@elte.hu\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "29b884921634e1e01cbd276e1c9b8fc07a7e4a90", "tree": "951fce8626715b1ad26ca81bec9002cfcb8242af", "parents": [ "e8106b941ceab68cc5ff713df7b1276484554584" ], "author": { "name": "Oleg Nesterov", "email": "oleg@tv-sign.ru", "time": "Fri Sep 29 02:01:09 2006 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@g5.osdl.org", "time": "Fri Sep 29 09:18:20 2006 -0700" }, "message": "[PATCH] set EXIT_DEAD state in do_exit(), not in schedule()\n\nschedule() checks PF_DEAD on every context switch and sets -\u003estate \u003d EXIT_DEAD\nto ensure that the exiting task will be deactivated.

In this discussion, I realized that there are some places\nthat the pi_lock is being grabbed when it really wasn\u0027t necessary. Also\nthis patch does a little bit of clean up.\n\nThis patch basically does three things:\n\n1) renames the \"boost\" variable to \"chain_walk\". Since it is used in\n the debugging case when it isn\u0027t going to be boosted. It better\n describes what the test is going to do if it succeeds.\n\n2) moves get_task_struct to just before the unlocking of the wait_lock.\n This removes duplicate code, and makes it a little easier to read. The\n owner wont go away while either the pi_lock or the wait_lock are held.\n\n3) removes the pi_locking and owner blocked checking completely from the\n debugging case. This is because the grabbing the lock and doing the\n check, then releasing the lock is just so full of races.
