cf4fc6cb76 timekeeping: rename timekeeping_is_continuous to timekeeping_valid_for_hres
Function timekeeping_is_continuous() no longer checks flag
CLOCK_IS_CONTINUOUS, and it checks CLOCK_SOURCE_VALID_FOR_HRES now.  So rename
the function accordingly.

fea9d17554 ITIMER_REAL: convert to use struct pid
signal_struct->tsk points to the ->group_leader and thus we have the nasty
code in de_thread() which has to change it and restart ->real_timer if the
leader is changed.

Use "struct pid *leader_pid" instead.  This also allows us to kill now
unneeded send_group_sig_info().

46f382d2b6 uglify while_each_pid_task() to make sure we don't count the execing pricess twice
There is a window when de_thread() switches the leader and drops
tasklist_lock.  In that window do_each_pid_task(PIDTYPE_PID) finds both new
and old leaders.

The problem is pretty much theoretical and probably can be ignored.  Currently
the only users of do_each_pid_task(PIDTYPE_PID) are send_sigio/send_sigurg, so
they can send the signal to the same process twice.

44c4e1b258 pid: Extend/Fix pid_vnr
pid_vnr returns the user space pid with respect to the pid namespace the
struct pid was allocated in.  What we want before we return a pid to user
space is the user space pid with respect to the pid namespace of current.

pid_vnr is a very nice optimization but because it isn't quite what we want
it is easy to use pid_vnr at times when we aren't certain the struct pid
was allocated in our pid namespace.

Currently this describes at least tiocgpgrp and tiocgsid in ttyio.c the
parent process reported in the core dumps and the parent process in
get_signal_to_deliver.

So unless the performance impact is huge having an interface that does what
we want instead of always what we want should be much more reliable and
much less error prone.

d12619b5ff fix group stop with exit race
do_signal_stop() counts all sub-thread and sets ->group_stop_count
accordingly.  Every thread should decrement ->group_stop_count and stop,
the last one should notify the parent.

However a sub-thread can exit before it notices the signal_pending(), or it
may be somewhere in do_exit() already.  In that case the group stop never
finishes properly.

Note: this is a minimal fix, we can add some optimizations later.  Say we
can return quickly if thread_group_empty().  Also, we can move some signal
related code from exit_notify() to exit_signals().

6b39c7bfbd kill PT_ATTACHED
Since the patch

	"Fix ptrace_attach()/ptrace_traceme()/de_thread() race"
	commit f5b40e363a

we set PT_ATTACHED and change child->parent "atomically" wrt task_list lock.

This means we can remove the checks like "PT_ATTACHED && ->parent != ptracer"
which were needed to catch the "ptrace attach is in progress" case.  We can
also remove the flag itself since nobody else uses it.

01b8b07a5d IPC: consolidate sem_exit_ns(), msg_exit_ns() and shm_exit_ns()
sem_exit_ns(), msg_exit_ns() and shm_exit_ns() are all called when an
ipc_namespace is released to free all ipcs of each type.  But in fact, they
do the same thing: they loop around all ipcs to free them individually by
calling a specific routine.

This patch proposes to consolidate this by introducing a common function,
free_ipcs(), that do the job.  The specific routine to call on each
individual ipcs is passed as parameter.  For this, these ipc-specific
'free' routines are reworked to take a generic 'struct ipc_perm' as
parameter.

ed2ddbf88c IPC: make struct ipc_ids static in ipc_namespace
Each ipc_namespace contains a table of 3 pointers to struct ipc_ids (3 for
msg, sem and shm, structure used to store all ipcs) These 'struct ipc_ids'
are dynamically allocated for each icp_namespace as the ipc_namespace
itself (for the init namespace, they are initialized with pointers to
static variables instead)

It is so for historical reason: in fact, before the use of idr to store the
ipcs, the ipcs were stored in tables of variable length, depending of the
maximum number of ipc allowed.  Now, these 'struct ipc_ids' have a fixed
size.  As they are allocated in any cases for each new ipc_namespace, there
is no gain of memory in having them allocated separately of the struct
ipc_namespace.

This patch proposes to make this table static in the struct ipc_namespace.
Thus, we can allocate all in once and get rid of all the code needed to
allocate and free these ipc_ids separately.

2d3a4e3666 proc: fix ->open'less usage due to ->proc_fops flip
Typical PDE creation code looks like:

	pde = create_proc_entry("foo", 0, NULL);
	if (pde)
		pde->proc_fops = &foo_proc_fops;

Notice that PDE is first created, only then ->proc_fops is set up to
final value. This is a problem because right after creation
a) PDE is fully visible in /proc , and
b) ->proc_fops are proc_file_operations which do not have ->open callback. So, it's
   possible to ->read without ->open (see one class of oopses below).

The fix is new API called proc_create() which makes sure ->proc_fops are
set up before gluing PDE to main tree. Typical new code looks like:

	pde = proc_create("foo", 0, NULL, &foo_proc_fops);
	if (!pde)
		return -ENOMEM;

Fix most networking users for a start.

In the long run, create_proc_entry() for regular files will go.

ae5e1b22f1 namespaces: move the IPC namespace under IPC_NS option
Currently the IPC namespace management code is spread over the ipc/*.c files.
I moved this code into ipc/namespace.c file which is compiled out when needed.

The linux/ipc_namespace.h file is used to store the prototypes of the
functions in namespace.c and the stubs for NAMESPACES=n case.  This is done
so, because the stub for copy_ipc_namespace requires the knowledge of the
CLONE_NEWIPC flag, which is in sched.h.  But the linux/ipc.h file itself in
included into many many .c files via the sys.h->sem.h sequence so adding the
sched.h into it will make all these .c depend on sched.h which is not that
good.  On the other hand the knowledge about the namespaces stuff is required
in 4 .c files only.

Besides, this patch compiles out some auxiliary functions from ipc/sem.c,
msg.c and shm.c files.  It turned out that moving these functions into
namespaces.c is not that easy because they use many other calls and macros
from the original file.  Moving them would make this patch complicated.  On
the other hand all these functions can be consolidated, so I will send a
separate patch doing this a bit later.

proc_doulongvec_minmax() directly.  However, hugetlb.c's locking rules
require that all counter modifications occur under the hugetlb_lock.  Add a

8ff12cfc00 SLUB: Support for performance statistics
The statistics provided here allow the monitoring of allocator behavior but
at the cost of some (minimal) loss of performance. Counters are placed in
SLUB's per cpu data structure. The per cpu structure may be extended by the
statistics to grow larger than one cacheline which will increase the cache
footprint of SLUB.

There is a compile option to enable/disable the inclusion of the runtime
statistics and its off by default.

The slabinfo tool is enhanced to support these statistics via two options:

-D 	Switches the line of information displayed for a slab from size
	mode to activity mode.

-A	Sorts the slabs displayed by activity. This allows the display of
	the slabs most important to the performance of a certain load.

-r	Report option will report detailed statistics on

Example (tbench load):

slabinfo -AD		->Shows the most active slabs

Name                   Objects    Alloc     Free   %Fast

:0000768                   258     7174     6931  58  15

So the skbuff_fclone_cache is of highest importance for the tbench load.
Pretty high load on the 192 sized slab. Look for the aliases

slabinfo -a | grep 000192
:0000192     <- xfs_btree_cur filp kmalloc-192 uid_cache tw_sock_TCP
	request_sock_TCPv6 tw_sock_TCPv6 skbuff_head_cache xfs_ili

Likely skbuff_head_cache.


Looking into the statistics of the skbuff_fclone_cache is possible through

slabinfo skbuff_fclone_cache	->-r option implied if cache name is mentioned

Descriptions of the output:

Total:		The total number of allocation and frees that occurred for a
		slab

Fastpath:	The number of allocations/frees that used the fastpath.

Slowpath:	Other allocations

Page Alloc:	Number of calls to the page allocator as a result of slowpath
		processing

Add Partial:	Number of slabs added to the partial list through free or
		alloc (occurs during cpuslab flushes)

Remove Partial:	Number of slabs removed from the partial list as a result of
		allocations retrieving a partial slab or by a free freeing
		the last object of a slab.

RemoteObj/Froz:	How many times were remotely freed object encountered when a
		slab was about to be deactivated. Frozen: How many times was
		free able to skip list processing because the slab was in use
		as the cpuslab of another processor.

Flushes:	Number of times the cpuslab was flushed on request
		(kmem_cache_shrink, may result from races in __slab_alloc)

Refill:		Number of times we were able to refill the cpuslab from
		remotely freed objects for the same slab.

Deactivate:	Statistics how slabs were deactivated. Shows how they were
		put onto the partial list.

In general fastpath is very good. Slowpath without partial list processing is
also desirable. Any touching of partial list uses node specific locks which
may potentially cause list lock contention.

683d0baad3 SLUB: Use unique end pointer for each slab page.
We use a NULL pointer on freelists to signal that there are no more objects.
However the NULL pointers of all slabs match in contrast to the pointers to
the real objects which are in different ranges for different slab pages.

Change the end pointer to be a pointer to the first object and set bit 0.
Every slab will then have a different end pointer. This is necessary to ensure
that end markers can be matched to the source slab during cmpxchg_local.

Bring back the use of the mapping field by SLUB since we would otherwise have
to call a relatively expensive function page_address() in __slab_alloc().  Use
of the mapping field allows avoiding a call to page_address() in various other
functions as well.

There is no need to change the page_mapping() function since bit 0 is set on
the mapping as also for anonymous pages.  page_mapping(slab_page) will
therefore still return NULL although the mapping field is overloaded.

Commit ad7f71674a ("[POWERPC] Use a
sensible default for clock_getres() in the VDSO") corrected the clock
resolution reported by the VDSO clock_getres() but introduced another
problem in that older versions of gcc (gcc-4.0 and earlier) fail to
compile the new code in arch/powerpc/kernel/asm-offsets.c.

This fixes it by introducing a new MONOTONIC_RES_NSEC define in the
generic code which is equivalent to KTIME_MONOTONIC_RES but is just an
integer constant, not a ktime union.
