Ilya reported that on a very slow machine he could reliably
reproduce a race between forking init and kthreadd. We first
fork init so that it obtains pid-1, however since the scheduler
is already fully running at this point it can preempt and run
the init thread before we spawn and set kthreadd_task.The init thread can then attempt spawning kthreads without
kthreadd being present which results in an OOPS.Reported-by: Ilya Loginov

Patch is against latest Linus master branch and is expected to be
safe bug fix.You get:
ACPI: HARDWARE addr space,NOT supported yet
for each ACPI defined CPU which status is active, but exceeds
maxcpus= count.As these "not booted" CPUs do not run an idle routine
and echo X >/proc/acpi/processor/*/throttling did not work
I couldn't find a way to really access not onlined/booted
machines. Still this should get fixed and
/proc/acpi/processor/X dirs of cores exceeding maxcpus
should not show up.I wonder whether this could get cleaned up by truncating possible cpu mask
and nr_cpu_ids to setup_max_cpus early some day
(and not exporting setup_max_cpus anymore then).
But this needs touching of a lot other places...Signed-off-by: Thomas Renninger

For each new populated zone of hotadded node, need to update its pagesets
with dynamically allocated per_cpu_pageset struct for all possible CPUs:1) Detach zone->pageset from the shared boot_pageset
at end of __build_all_zonelists().2) Use mutex to protect zone->pageset when it's still
shared in onlined_pages()Otherwises, multiple zones of different nodes would share same boot strapping
boot_pageset for same CPU, which will finally cause below kernel panic:------------[ cut here ]------------

The kernel debugger can operate well before mm_init(), but the x86
hardware breakpoint code which uses the perf api requires that the
kernel allocators are initialized.This means the kernel debug core needs to provide an optional arch
specific call back to allow the initialization functions to run after
the kernel has been further initialized.The kdb shell already had a similar restriction with an early
initialization and late initialization. The kdb_init() was moved into
the debug core's version of the late init which is called
dbg_late_init();CC: kgdb-bugreport@lists.sourceforge.net

This patch fixes few usability and configurability issues.
o All the cgroup based controller options are configurable from
"Genral Setup/Control Group Support/" menu. blkio is the only exception.
Hence make this option visible in above menu and make it configurable from
there to bring it inline with rest of the cgroup based controllers.o Get rid of CONFIG_DEBUG_CFQ_IOSCHED.
This option currently does two things.
- Enable printing of cgroup paths in blktrace
- Enables CONFIG_DEBUG_BLK_CGROUP, which in turn displays additional stat
files in cgroup.If we are using group scheduling, blktrace data is of not really much use
if cgroup information is not present. To get this data, currently one has to
also enable CONFIG_DEBUG_CFQ_IOSCHED, which in turn brings the overhead of
all the additional debug stat files which is not desired.Hence, this patch moves printing of cgroup paths under
CONFIG_CFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED.This allows us to get rid of CONFIG_DEBUG_CFQ_IOSCHED completely. Now all
the debug stat files are controlled only by CONFIG_DEBUG_BLK_CGROUP which
can be enabled through config menu.Signed-off-by: Vivek Goyal

The unpack routine fails to handle the decompress_method() returning
unrecognised decompressor (compress_name == NULL). This results in the
routine looping eventually oopsing on an out of bounds memory access.Note this bug is usually hidden, only triggering on trailing junk after
one or more correct compressed blocks. The case of the compressed archive
being complete junk is (by accident?) caught by the if (state != Reset)
check because state is initialised to Start, but not updated due to the
decompressor not having been called. Obviously if the junk is trailing a
correctly decompressed buffer, state == Reset from the previous call to
the decompressor.Signed-off-by: Phillip Lougher

…it slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

Introduce the write-only file "cgroup.event_control" in every cgroup.
To register new notification handler you need:
- create an eventfd;
- open a control file to be monitored. Callbacks register_event() and
unregister_event() must be defined for the control file;
- write " " to cgroup.event_control.
Interpretation of args is defined by control file implementation;eventfd will be woken up by control file implementation or when the
cgroup is removed.To unregister notification handler just close eventfd.
If you need notification functionality for a control file you have to
implement callbacks register_event() and unregister_event() in the
struct cftype.[kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com: Kconfig fix]

To avoid potential problems with an empty /dev open /dev/console
from rootfs instead of waiting to mount our root filesystem and
mounting it there. This effectively guarantees that there will
be a device node, and it won't be on a filesystem that we will
ever unmount, so there are no issues with leaving /dev/console
open and pinning the filesystem.This is actually more effective than automatically mounting
devtmpfs on /dev because it removes removes the occasionally
problematic assumption that /dev/console exists from the boot
code.With this patch I was able to throw busybox on my /boot partition
(which has no /dev directory) and boot into userspace without
problems.The only possible negative consequence I can think of is that
someone out there deliberately used did not use a character device
that is major 5 minor 2 for /dev/console. Does anyone know of a
situation in which that could make sense?Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman

Currently, rcu_needs_cpu() simply checks whether the current CPU
has an outstanding RCU callback, which means that the last CPU
to go into dyntick-idle mode might wait a few ticks for the
relevant grace periods to complete. However, if all the other
CPUs are in dyntick-idle mode, and if this CPU is in a quiescent
state (which it is for RCU-bh and RCU-sched any time that we are
considering going into dyntick-idle mode), then the grace period
is instantly complete.This patch therefore repeatedly invokes the RCU grace-period
machinery in order to force any needed grace periods to complete
quickly. It does so a limited number of times in order to
prevent starvation by an RCU callback function that might pass
itself to call_rcu().However, if any CPU other than the current one is not in
dyntick-idle mode, fall back to simply checking (with fix to bug
noted by Lai Jiangshan). Also, take advantage of last
grace-period forcing, the opportunity to do so noted by Steve
Rostedt. And apply simplified #ifdef condition suggested by
Frederic Weisbecker.Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney

ima wants to create an inode information struct (iint) when inodes are
allocated. This means that at least the part of ima which does this
allocation (the allocation is filled with information later) should
before any inodes are created. To accomplish this we split the ima
initialization routine placing the kmem cache allocator inside a
security_initcall() function. Since this makes use of radix trees we also
need to make sure that is initialized before security_initcall().Signed-off-by: Eric Paris

This adds CROSS_COMPILE as a kconfig string so you can store it in
.config. Then you can use plain "make" in the configured kernel build
directory to do the right cross compilation without setting the
command-line or environment variable every time.With this, you can set up different build directories for different kernel
configurations, whether native or cross-builds, and then use the simple:make -C /build/dir M=module-source-dir
idiom to build modules for any given target kernel, indicating which one
by nothing but the build directory chosen.I tried a version that defaults the string with env="CROSS_COMPILE" so
that in a "make oldconfig" with CROSS_COMPILE in the environment you can
just hit return to store the way you're building it. But the kconfig
prompt for strings doesn't give you any way to say you want an empty
string instead of the default, so I punted that.Signed-off-by: Roland McGrath
