Upcoming congestion controls for TCP require usec resolution for RTT
estimations. Millisecond resolution is simply not enough these days.
FQ/pacing in DC environments also require this change for finer control
and removal of bimodal behavior due to the current hack in
tcp_update_pacing_rate() for 'small rtt'
TCP_CONG_RTT_STAMP is no longer needed.
As Julian Anastasov pointed out, we need to keep user compatibility :
tcp_metrics used to export RTT and RTTVAR in msec resolution,
so we added RTT_US and RTTVAR_US. An iproute2 patch is needed
to use the new attributes if provided by the kernel.
In this example ss command displays a srtt of 32 usecs (10Gbit link)
lpk51:~# ./ss -i dst lpk52

ktime_get() is too expensive on some cases, and we'd like to get
usec resolution timestamps in TCP stack.
This patch adds a light weight facility using a combination of
local_clock() and jiffies samples.
Instead of :
u64 t0, t1;
t0 = ktime_get();
// stuff
t1 = ktime_get();
delta_us = ktime_us_delta(t1, t0);
use :
struct skb_mstamp t0, t1;
skb_mstamp_get(&t0);
// stuff
skb_mstamp_get(&t1);
delta_us = skb_mstamp_us_delta(&t1, &t0);
Note : local_clock() might have a (bounded) drift between cpus.
Do not use this infra in place of ktime_get() without understanding the
issues.

Sometimes we have a struct resource where we know the type (MEM/IO/etc.)
and the size, but we haven't assigned address space for it. The
IORESOURCE_UNSET flag is a way to indicate this situation. For these
"unset" resources, the start address is meaningless, so print only the
size, e.g.,
- pci 0000:0c:00.0: reg 184: [mem 0x00000000-0x00001fff 64bit]
+ pci 0000:0c:00.0: reg 184: [mem size 0x2000 64bit]
For %pr (printing with raw flags), we still print the address range,
because %pr is mostly used for debugging anyway.
Thanks to Fengguang Wu <fengguang.wu@intel.com> for suggesting
resource_size().

We have two identical copies of resource_contains() already, and more
places that could use it. This moves it to ioport.h where it can be
shared.
resource_contains(struct resource *r1, struct resource *r2) returns true
iff r1 and r2 are the same type (most callers already checked this
separately) and the r1 address range completely contains r2.
In addition, the new resource_contains() checks that both r1 and r2 have
addresses assigned to them. If a resource is IORESOURCE_UNSET, it doesn't
have a valid address and can't contain or be contained by another resource.
Some callers already check this or for res->start.
No functional change.

Commit 93e6f119c0ce ("ipc/mqueue: cleanup definition names and
locations") added global hardcoded limits to the amount of message
queues that can be created. While these limits are per-namespace,
reality is that it ends up breaking userspace applications.
Historically users have, at least in theory, been able to create up to
INT_MAX queues, and limiting it to just 1024 is way too low and dramatic
for some workloads and use cases. For instance, Madars reports:
"This update imposes bad limits on our multi-process application. As
our app uses approaches that each process opens its own set of queues
(usually something about 3-5 queues per process). In some scenarios
we might run up to 3000 processes or more (which of-course for linux
is not a problem). Thus we might need up to 9000 queues or more. All
processes run under one user."
Other affected users can be found in launchpad bug #1155695:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/manpages/+bug/1155695
Instead of increasing this limit, revert it entirely and fallback to the
original way of dealing queue limits -- where once a user's resource
limit is reached, and all memory is used, new queues cannot be created.

For optimization, task_lock() is additionally used to protect
task->cgroups. The optimization is pretty dubious as either
css_set_rwsem is grabbed anyway or PF_EXITING already protects
task->cgroups. It adds only overhead and confusion at this point.
Let's drop task_[un]lock() and update comments accordingly.

Currently, process / task migration is a single operation which may
fail depending on memory pressure or the involved controllers'
->can_attach() callbacks. One problem with this approach is migration
of multiple targets. It's impossible to tell whether a given target
will be successfully migrated beforehand and cgroup core can't keep
track of enough states to roll back after intermediate failure.
This is already an issue with cgroup_transfer_tasks(). Also, we're
gonna need multiple target migration for unified hierarchy.
This patch splits migration into four stages -
cgroup_migrate_add_src(), cgroup_migrate_prepare_dst(),
cgroup_migrate() and cgroup_migrate_finish(), where
cgroup_migrate_prepare_dst() performs all the operations which may
fail due to allocation failure without actually migrating the target.
The four separate stages mean that, disregarding ->can_attach()
failures, the success or failure of multi target migration can be
determined before performing any actual migration. If preparations of
all targets succeed, the whole thing will succeed. If not, the whole
operation can fail without any side-effect.
Since the previous patch to use css_set->mg_tasks to keep track of
migration targets, the only thing which may need memory allocation
during migration is the target css_sets. cgroup_migrate_prepare()
pins all source and target css_sets and link them up. Note that this
can be performed without holding threadgroup_lock even if the target
is a process. As long as cgroup_mutex is held, no new css_set can be
put into play.

Currently, while migrating tasks from one cgroup to another,
cgroup_attach_task() builds a flex array of all target tasks;
unfortunately, this has a couple issues.
* Flex array has size limit. On 64bit, struct task_and_cgroup is
24bytes making the flex element limit around 87k. It is a high
number but not impossible to hit. This means that the current
cgroup implementation can't migrate a process with more than 87k
threads.
* Process migration involves memory allocation whose size is dependent
on the number of threads the process has. This means that cgroup
core can't guarantee success or failure of multi-process migrations
as memory allocation failure can happen in the middle. This is in
part because cgroup can't grab threadgroup locks of multiple
processes at the same time, so when there are multiple processes to
migrate, it is imposible to tell how many tasks are to be migrated
beforehand.
Note that this already affects cgroup_transfer_tasks(). cgroup
currently cannot guarantee atomic success or failure of the
operation. It may fail in the middle and after such failure cgroup
doesn't have enough information to roll back properly. It just
aborts with some tasks migrated and others not.
To resolve the situation, this patch updates the migration path to use
task->cg_list to track target tasks. The previous patch already added
css_set->mg_tasks and updated iterations in non-migration paths to
include them during task migration. This patch updates migration path
to actually make use of it.
Instead of putting onto a flex_array, each target task is moved from
its css_set->tasks list to css_set->mg_tasks and the migration path
keeps trace of all the source css_sets and the associated cgroups.
Once all source css_sets are determined, the destination css_set for
each is determined, linked to the matching source css_set and put on a
separate list.
To iterate the target tasks, migration path just needs to iterat
through either the source or target css_sets, depending on whether
migration has been committed or not, and the tasks on their ->mg_tasks
lists. cgroup_taskset is updated to contain the list_heads for source
and target css_sets and the iteration cursor. cgroup_taskset_*() are
accordingly updated to walk through css_sets and their ->mg_tasks.
This resolves the above listed issues with moderate additional
complexity.

To resolve the situation, we're going to use task->cg_list during
migration too. Instead of building a separate array, target tasks
will be linked into a dedicated migration list_head on the owning
css_set. Tasks on the migration list are treated the same as tasks on
the usual tasks list; however, being on a separate list allows cgroup
migration code path to keep track of the target tasks by simply
keeping the list of css_sets with tasks being migrated, making
unpredictable dynamic allocation unnecessary.
In prepartion of such migration path update, this patch introduces
css_set->mg_tasks list and updates css_set task iterations so that
they walk both css_set->tasks and ->mg_tasks. Note that ->mg_tasks
isn't used yet.

The name __smp_call_function_single() doesn't tell much about the
properties of this function, especially when compared to
smp_call_function_single().
The comments above the implementation are also misleading. The main
point of this function is actually not to be able to embed the csd
in an object. This is actually a requirement that result from the
purpose of this function which is to raise an IPI asynchronously.
As such it can be called with interrupts disabled. And this feature
comes at the cost of the caller who then needs to serialize the
IPIs on this csd.
Lets rename the function and enhance the comments so that they reflect
these properties.

The main point of calling __smp_call_function_single() is to send
an IPI in a pure asynchronous way. By embedding a csd in an object,
a caller can send the IPI without waiting for a previous one to complete
as is required by smp_call_function_single() for example. As such,
sending this kind of IPI can be safe even when irqs are disabled.
This flexibility comes at the expense of the caller who then needs to
synchronize the csd lifecycle by himself and make sure that IPIs on a
single csd are serialized.
This is how __smp_call_function_single() works when wait = 0 and this
usecase is relevant.
Now there don't seem to be any usecase with wait = 1 that can't be
covered by smp_call_function_single() instead, which is safer. Lets look
at the two possible scenario:
1) The user calls __smp_call_function_single(wait = 1) on a csd embedded
in an object. It looks like a nice and convenient pattern at the first
sight because we can then retrieve the object from the IPI handler easily.
But actually it is a waste of memory space in the object since the csd
can be allocated from the stack by smp_call_function_single(wait = 1)
and the object can be passed an the IPI argument.
Besides that, embedding the csd in an object is more error prone
because the caller must take care of the serialization of the IPIs
for this csd.
2) The user calls __smp_call_function_single(wait = 1) on a csd that
is allocated on the stack. It's ok but smp_call_function_single()
can do it as well and it already takes care of the allocation on the
stack. Again it's more simple and less error prone.
Therefore, using the underscore prepend API version with wait = 1
is a bad pattern and a sign that the caller can do safer and more
simple.
There was a single user of that which has just been converted.
So lets remove this option to discourage further users.

ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM. (For multi-platform code it's already unused since
387798b (ARM: initial multiplatform support).)
To make this work some code out of arch/arm needed to be adapted. The
respective changes got acks by their maintainers to be taken via armsoc
(with Andrew Morton substituting for Alessandro Zummo as rtc maintainer).
Compared to the previous pull request there was another patch added that

There are a few fixes in here that might, earlier in a cycle, have gone
to Greg as fixes. Given they are either minor or have never actually
been observed as causing trouble (the locking bug in the event code) and
are invasive, I have included them in this pull request, targeting the
3.15 merge window instead.
The rest are pretty uncontroversial new drivers, a handy little tool for
the example code in our documentation and little cleanups.
New drivers
* Freescale Vybrid and i.MX6SLX ADC driver.
* HID Sensor hub proximity sensors.
* HID Sensor hub pressure sensors.
* LPS25H Pressure sensors added to the ST micro pressure sensor driver.
New functionality
* lsiio tool. This is added to the staging tree as we haven't yet moved
the example code it sits with out. Moving this code out is now a reasonably
high priority but holding up this tool in the meantime did not seem
worthwhile.
* mag3110 - add missing scale factor for temperature output to userspace.
Cleanups
* Fix a bug in the event reporting in which a spin lock might be held over
when a sleep occured. A similar bug was found by Lars in the buffer code.
It has not to our knowledge been observed as actually occuring and is
a little too invasive to push out as a fix.
* Drop the IIO_ST macro after clearing out all users. This macro was a very
bad idea leading to a number of bugs after it stopped covering all elements
of the structure being assigned and people started making assumptions about
what it did cover. Glad to see it go!
* Avoid applying extended name to shared attributes as it makes no sense.
No in tree drivers were using the combination, hence not pushed out as
a fix.
* ad799x - move to devm_request_threaded_irq to reduce boilerplate clean up.
* bma180 - make the low_pass_filter_3db_frequency info element shared rather
than per attribute. The old approach was valid but not as clean as it might
be and was setting a bad example. Hence the cleanup.
* mxs-lradc - propogate the error code form a platform_get_irq call rather than
eating it up by returning -EINVAL on all errors.
* ad799x - typo fix in the copyright message. Either that or Michael was
asserting a copyright that moved backwards in time by about a thousand years.
* ad799x - use a regulator for vref rather than platform data. The driver
dates from just as the regulator framework was coming into common use so
provides an alternative way of specifying the reference voltage. We no
longer need that approach so drop it in favour of a regulator only approach.
* max1363 - some internal vref values were out by a small amount. The effect
would have been tiny and no one noticed hence not pushing this through as
a fix.
* core - replace some pointless goto error_ret (with no clean up) lines with
direct returns. This is my bad coding style so I'm glad to see it cleaned
up.
* core - avoid a kasprintf that just directly prints a string with no
formatting elements. This has always been there but Lars just noticed it.
Oops.

The specific torture modules (like rcutorture) need to call
torture_cleanup() in any case, so this commit makes torture_cleanup()
deal with torture_shutdown_cleanup() and torture_stutter_cleanup() so
that the specific modules don't have to deal with these details.

Stopping of kthreads is not RCU-specific, so this commit abstracts
out torture_stop_kthread(), saving a few lines of code in the process.

Creation of kthreads is not RCU-specific, so this commit abstracts
out torture_create_kthread(), saving a few tens of lines of code in
the process.
This change requires modifying VERBOSE_TOROUT_ERRSTRING() to take a
non-const string, so that _torture_create_kthread() can avoid an
open-coded substitute.

Not all of the rcutorture kthreads waited for kthread_should_stop()
before returning from their top-level functions, and none of them
used torture_shutdown_absorb() properly. These problems can result in
segfaults and hangs at shutdown time, and some recent changes perturbed
timing sufficiently to make them much more probable. This commit
therefore creates a torture_kthread_stopping() function that does the
proper kthread shutdown dance in one centralized location.
Accommodate this grouping by making VERBOSE_TOROUT_STRING() capable of
taking a non-const string as its argument, which allows the new
torture_kthread_stopping() to pass its "title" argument directly to
the updated version of VERBOSE_TOROUT_STRING().

This commit introduces the torture_must_stop() function in order to
keep use of the fullstop variable local to kernel/torture.c. There
is also a torture_must_stop_irq() counterpart for use from RCU callbacks,
timeout handlers, and the like.

Because handling the race between rmmod and system shutdown is not
specific to RCU, this commit abstracts torture_shutdown_notify(),
placing this code into kernel/torture.c. This change also allows
fullstop_mutex to be private to kernel/torture.c.
