2012-01-13Merge branch 'akpm' (aka "Andrew's patch-bomb, take two")Linus Torvalds5-4/+25
Andrew explains: - various misc stuff - Most of the rest of MM: memcg, threaded hugepages, others. - cpumask - kexec - kdump - some direct-io performance tweaking - radix-tree optimisations - new selftests code A note on this: often people will develop a new userspace-visible feature and will develop userspace code to exercise/test that feature. Then they merge the patch and the selftest code dies. Sometimes we paste it into the changelog. Sometimes the code gets thrown into Documentation/(!). This saddens me. So this patch creates a bare-bones framework which will henceforth allow me to ask people to include their test apps in the kernel tree so we can keep them alive. Then when people enhance or fix the feature, I can ask them to update the test app too. The infrastruture is terribly trivial at present - let's see how it evolves. - checkpoint/restart feature work. A note on this: this is a project by various mad Russians to perform c/r mainly from userspace, with various oddball helper code added into the kernel where the need is demonstrated. So rather than some large central lump of code, what we have is little bits and pieces popping up in various places which either expose something new or which permit something which is normally kernel-private to be modified. The overall project is an ongoing thing. I've judged that the size and scope of the thing means that we're more likely to be successful with it if we integrate the support into mainline piecemeal rather than allowing it all to develop out-of-tree. However I'm less confident than the developers that it will all eventually work! So what I'm asking them to do is to wrap each piece of new code inside CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE. So if it all eventually comes to tears and the project as a whole fails, it should be a simple matter to go through and delete all trace of it. This lot pretty much wraps up the -rc1 merge for me. * akpm: (96 commits) unlzo: fix input buffer free ramoops: update parameters only after successful init ramoops: fix use of rounddown_pow_of_two() c/r: prctl: add PR_SET_MM codes to set up mm_struct entries c/r: procfs: add start_data, end_data, start_brk members to /proc/$pid/stat v4 c/r: introduce CHECKPOINT_RESTORE symbol selftests: new x86 breakpoints selftest selftests: new very basic kernel selftests directory radix_tree: take radix_tree_path off stack radix_tree: remove radix_tree_indirect_to_ptr() dio: optimize cache misses in the submission path vfs: cache request_queue in struct block_device fs/direct-io.c: calculate fs_count correctly in get_more_blocks() drivers/parport/parport_pc.c: fix warnings panic: don't print redundant backtraces on oops sysctl: add the kernel.ns_last_pid control kdump: add udev events for memory online/offline include/linux/crash_dump.h needs elf.h kdump: fix crash_kexec()/smp_send_stop() race in panic() kdump: crashk_res init check for /sys/kernel/kexec_crash_size ...
2012-01-13c/r: procfs: add start_data, end_data, start_brk members to /proc/$pid/stat v4Cyrill Gorcunov1-0/+3
The mm->start_code/end_code, mm->start_data/end_data, mm->start_brk are involved into calculation of program text/data segment sizes (which might be seen in /proc/<pid>/statm) and into brk() call final address. For restore we need to know all these values. While mm->start_code/end_code already present in /proc/$pid/stat, the rest members are not, so this patch brings them in. The restore procedure of these members is addressed in another patch using prctl().

Recent tools do not want to use /proc to retrieve module information. A few values are currently missing from sysfs to replace the information available in /proc/modules. This adds /sys/module/*/{coresize,initsize,taint} attributes. TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE (P) and TAINT_OOT_MODULE (O) flags are both always shown now, and do no longer exclude each other, also in /proc/modules. Replace the open-coded sysfs attribute initializers with the __ATTR() macro. Add the new attributes to Documentation/ABI.

2012-01-12mmc: core: Use delayed work in clock gating frameworkSujit Reddy Thumma1-0/+10
Current clock gating framework disables the MCI clock as soon as the request is completed and enables it when a request arrives. This aggressive clock gating framework, when enabled, cause following issues: When there are back-to-back requests from the Queue layer, we unnecessarily end up disabling and enabling the clocks between these requests since 8MCLK clock cycles is a very short duration compared to the time delay between back to back requests reaching the MMC layer. This overhead can effect the overall performance depending on how long the clock enable and disable calls take which is platform dependent. For example on some platforms we can have clock control not on the local processor, but on a different subsystem and the time taken to perform the clock enable/disable can add significant overhead. Also if the host controller driver decides to disable the host clock too when mmc_set_ios function is called with ios.clock=0, it adds additional delay and it is highly possible that the next request had already arrived and unnecessarily blocked in enabling the clocks. This is seen frequently when the processor is executing at high speeds and in multi-core platforms thus reduces the overall throughput compared to if clock gating is disabled. Fix this by delaying turning off the clocks by posting request on delayed workqueue. Also cancel the unscheduled pending work, if any, when there is access to card. sysfs entry is provided to tune the delay as needed, default value set to 200ms.

2012-01-11procfs: add hidepid= and gid= mount optionsVasiliy Kulikov1-0/+39
Add support for mount options to restrict access to /proc/PID/ directories. The default backward-compatible "relaxed" behaviour is left untouched. The first mount option is called "hidepid" and its value defines how much info about processes we want to be available for non-owners: hidepid=0 (default) means the old behavior - anybody may read all world-readable /proc/PID/* files. hidepid=1 means users may not access any /proc/<pid>/ directories, but their own. Sensitive files like cmdline, sched*, status are now protected against other users. As permission checking done in proc_pid_permission() and files' permissions are left untouched, programs expecting specific files' modes are not confused. hidepid=2 means hidepid=1 plus all /proc/PID/ will be invisible to other users. It doesn't mean that it hides whether a process exists (it can be learned by other means, e.g. by kill -0 $PID), but it hides process' euid and egid. It compicates intruder's task of gathering info about running processes, whether some daemon runs with elevated privileges, whether another user runs some sensitive program, whether other users run any program at all, etc. gid=XXX defines a group that will be able to gather all processes' info (as in hidepid=0 mode). This group should be used instead of putting nonroot user in sudoers file or something. However, untrusted users (like daemons, etc.) which are not supposed to monitor the tasks in the whole system should not be added to the group. hidepid=1 or higher is designed to restrict access to procfs files, which might reveal some sensitive private information like precise keystrokes timings: http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2011/11/05/3 hidepid=1/2 doesn't break monitoring userspace tools. ps, top, pgrep, and conky gracefully handle EPERM/ENOENT and behave as if the current user is the only user running processes. pstree shows the process subtree which contains "pstree" process. Note: the patch doesn't deal with setuid/setgid issues of keeping preopened descriptors of procfs files (like https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/2/7/368). We rely on that the leaked information like the scheduling counters of setuid apps doesn't threaten anybody's privacy - only the user started the setuid program may read the counters.

2012-01-11mm: more intensive memory corruption debuggingStanislaw Gruszka1-0/+19
With CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC configured, the CPU will generate an exception on access (read,write) to an unallocated page, which permits us to catch code which corrupts memory. However the kernel is trying to maximise memory usage, hence there are usually few free pages in the system and buggy code usually corrupts some crucial data. This patch changes the buddy allocator to keep more free/protected pages and to interlace free/protected and allocated pages to increase the probability of catching corruption. When the kernel is compiled with CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC, debug_guardpage_minorder defines the minimum order used by the page allocator to grant a request. The requested size will be returned with the remaining pages used as guard pages. The default value of debug_guardpage_minorder is zero: no change from current behaviour.
