Using TIF_FREEZE for freezing worked when there was only single
freezing condition (the PM one); however, now there is also the
cgroup_freezer and single bit flag is getting clumsy.
thaw_processes() is already testing whether cgroup freezing in in
effect to avoid thawing tasks which were frozen by both PM and cgroup
freezers.This is racy (nothing prevents race against cgroup freezing) and
fragile. A much simpler way is to test actual freeze conditions from
freezing() - ie. directly test whether PM or cgroup freezing is in
effect.This patch adds variables to indicate whether and what type of
freezing conditions are in effect and reimplements freezing() such
that it directly tests whether any of the two freezing conditions is
active and the task should freeze. On fast path, freezing() is still
very cheap - it only tests system_freezing_cnt.This makes the clumsy dancing aroung TIF_FREEZE unnecessary and
freeze/thaw operations more usual - updating state variables for the
new state and nudging target tasks so that they notice the new state
and comply. As long as the nudging happens after state update, it's
race-free.* This allows use of freezing() in freeze_task(). Replace the open
coded tests with freezing().* p != current test is added to warning printing conditions in
try_to_freeze_tasks() failure path. This is necessary as freezing()
is now true for the task which initiated freezing too.-v2: Oleg pointed out that re-freezing FROZEN cgroup could increment
system_freezing_cnt. Fixed.Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo
Acked-by: Paul Menage (for the cgroup portions) -
TIF_FREEZE will be removed soon and freezing() will directly test
whether any freezing condition is in effect. Make the following
changes in preparation.* Rename cgroup_freezing_or_frozen() to cgroup_freezing() and make it
return bool.* Make cgroup_freezing() access task_freezer() under rcu read lock
instead of task_lock(). This makes the state dereferencing racy
against task moving to another cgroup; however, it was already racy
without this change as ->state dereference wasn't synchronized.
This will be later dealt with using attach hooks.* freezer->state is now set before trying to push tasks into the
target state.-v2: Oleg pointed out that freeze_change_state() was setting
freeze->state incorrectly to CGROUP_FROZEN instead of
CGROUP_FREEZING. Fixed.-v3: Matt pointed out that setting CGROUP_FROZEN used to always invoke
try_to_freeze_cgroup() regardless of the current state. Patch
updated such that the actual freeze/thaw operations are always
performed on invocation. This shouldn't make any difference
unless something is broken.Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo

freeze_processes() failure path is rather messy. Freezing is canceled
for workqueues and tasks which aren't frozen yet but frozen tasks are
left alone and should be thawed by the caller and of course some
callers (xen and kexec) didn't do it.This patch updates __thaw_task() to handle cancelation correctly and
makes freeze_processes() and freeze_kernel_threads() call
thaw_processes() on failure instead so that the system is fully thawed
on failure. Unnecessary [suspend_]thaw_processes() calls are removed
from kernel/power/hibernate.c, suspend.c and user.c.While at it, restructure error checking if clause in suspend_prepare()
to be less weird.-v2: Srivatsa spotted missing removal of suspend_thaw_processes() in
suspend_prepare() and error in commit message. Updated.Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo

With the previous changes, there's no meaningful difference between
PF_FREEZING and PF_FROZEN. Remove PF_FREEZING and use PF_FROZEN
instead in task_contributes_to_load().Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo

thaw_process() now has only internal users - system and cgroup
freezers. Remove the unnecessary return value, rename, unexport and
collapse __thaw_process() into it. This will help further updates to
the freezer code.-v3: oom_kill grew a use of thaw_process() while this patch was
pending. Convert it to use __thaw_task() for now. In the longer
term, this should be handled by allowing tasks to die if killed
even if it's frozen.-v2: minor style update as suggested by Matt.

Writeback and thinkpad_acpi have been using thaw_process() to prevent
deadlock between the freezer and kthread_stop(); unfortunately, this
is inherently racy - nothing prevents freezing from happening between
thaw_process() and kthread_stop().This patch implements kthread_freezable_should_stop() which enters
refrigerator if necessary but is guaranteed to return if
kthread_stop() is invoked. Both thaw_process() users are converted to
use the new function.Note that this deadlock condition exists for many of freezable
kthreads. They need to be converted to use the new should_stop or
freezable workqueue.Tested with synthetic test case.

There is no reason to export two functions for entering the
refrigerator. Calling refrigerator() instead of try_to_freeze()
doesn't save anything noticeable or removes any race condition.* Rename refrigerator() to __refrigerator() and make it return bool
indicating whether it scheduled out for freezing.* Update try_to_freeze() to return bool and relay the return value of
__refrigerator() if freezing().* Convert all refrigerator() users to try_to_freeze().
* Update documentation accordingly.
* While at it, add might_sleep() to try_to_freeze().

Dummy, non-zero definitions for HPAGE_MASK and HPAGE_SIZE were added in
51c6f666fceb ("mm: ZAP_BLOCK causes redundant work") to avoid a divide
by zero in generic kernel code.That code has since been removed, but probably should never have been
added in the first place: we don't want HPAGE_SIZE to act like PAGE_SIZE
for code that is working with hugepages, for example, when the
dependency on CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE has not been fulfilled.Because hugepage size can differ from architecture to architecture, each
is required to have their own definitions for both HPAGE_MASK and
HPAGE_SIZE. This is always done in arch/*/include/asm/page.h.So, just remove the dummy and dangerous definitions since they are no
longer needed and reveals the correct dependencies. Tested on
architectures using the definitions with allyesconfig: x86 (even with
thp), hppa, mips, powerpc, s390, sh3, sh4, sparc, and sparc64, and with
defconfig on ia64.Signed-off-by: David Rientjes

Commit 4ca46ff3e0d8c234cb40ebb6457653b59584426c (PM / Sleep: Mark
devices involved in wakeup signaling during suspend) introduced
the power.wakeup_path field in struct dev_pm_info to mark devices
whose children are enabled to wake up the system from sleep states,
so that power domains containing the parents that provide their
children with wakeup power and/or relay their wakeup signals are not
turned off. Unfortunately, that introduced a PM regression on SH7372
whose power consumption in the system "memory sleep" state increased
as a result of it, because it prevented the power domain containing
the I2C controller from being turned off when some children of that
controller were enabled to wake up the system, although the
controller was not necessary for them to signal wakeup.To fix this issue use the observation that devices whose
power.ignore_children flag is set for runtime PM should be treated
analogously during system suspend. Namely, they shouldn't be
included in wakeup paths going through their children. Since the
SH7372 I2C controller's power.ignore_children flag is set, doing so
will restore the previous behavior of that SOC.Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki

This is just a cleanup patch to silence a static checker warning.
The problem is that we cap "nr_iovecs" so it can't be larger than
"UIO_MAXIOV" but we don't check for negative values. It turns out this is
prevented at other layers, but logically it doesn't make sense to have
negative nr_iovecs so making it unsigned is nicer.Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter

This reverts commit a72c5e5eb738033938ab30d6a634b74d1d060f10.
The commit introduced alias for block devices which is intended to be
used during logging although actual usage hasn't been committed yet.
This approach adds very limited benefit (raw log might be easier to
follow) which can be trivially implemented in userland but has a lot
of problems.It is much worse than netif renames because it doesn't rename the
actual device but just adds conveninence name which isn't used
universally or enforced. Everything internal including device lookup
and sysfs still uses the internal name and nothing prevents two
devices from using conflicting alias - ie. sda can have sdb as its
alias.This has been nacked by people working on device driver core, block
layer and kernel-userland interface and shouldn't have been
upstreamed. Revert it.http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1155104
