rcu: 1Q2010 update for RCU documentation
Add expedited functions. Review documentation and update
obsolete verbiage. Also fix the advice for the RCU CPU-stall
kernel configuration parameter, and document RCU CPU-stall
warnings.
rcu: Give different levels of the rcu_node hierarchy distinct lockdep names
Previously, each level of the rcu_node hierarchy had the same
rather unimaginative name: "&rcu_node_class[i]". This makes
lockdep diagnostics involving these lockdep classes less helpful
than would be nice. This patch fixes this by giving each level
of the rcu_node hierarchy a distinct name: "rcu_node_level_0",
"rcu_node_level_1", and so on. This version of the patch
includes improved diagnostics suggested by Josh Triplett and
Peter Zijlstra.
rcu: Add debug check for too many rcu_read_unlock()
TREE_PREEMPT_RCU maintains an rcu_read_lock_nesting counter in
the task structure, which happens to be a signed int. So this
patch adds a check for this counter being negative at the end of
__rcu_read_unlock(). This check is under CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING,
so can be thought of as being part of lockdep.
rcu: Add force_quiescent_state() testing to rcutorture
Add force_quiescent_state() testing to rcutorture, with a
separate thread that repeatedly invokes force_quiescent_state()
in bursts. This can greatly increase the probability of
encountering certain types of race conditions.
rcu: Make force_quiescent_state() start grace period if needed
Grace periods cannot be started while force_quiescent_state() is
active. This is OK in that the affected CPUs will try again
later, but it does induce needless grace-period delays. This
patch causes rcu_start_gp() to record a failed attempt to start
a grace period. When force_quiescent_state() prepares to return,
it then starts the grace period if there was such a failed
attempt.
The rcu_process_dyntick() function checks twice for the end of
the current grace period. However, it holds the current
rcu_node structure's ->lock field throughout, and doesn't get to
the second call to rcu_gp_in_progress() unless there is at least
one CPU corresponding to this rcu_node structure that has not
yet checked in for the current grace period, which would prevent
the current grace period from ending. So the current grace
period cannot have ended, and the second check is redundant, so
remove it.
Also, given that this function is used even with !CONFIG_NO_HZ,
its name is quite misleading. Change from rcu_process_dyntick()
to force_qs_rnp().
rcu: Remove leg of force_quiescent_state() switch statement
The comparisons of rsp->gpnum nad rsp->completed in
rcu_process_dyntick() and force_quiescent_state() can be
replaced by the much more clear rcu_gp_in_progress() predicate
function. After doing this, it becomes clear that the
RCU_SAVE_COMPLETED leg of the force_quiescent_state() function's
switch statement is almost completely a no-op. A small change
to the RCU_SAVE_DYNTICK leg renders it a complete no-op, after
which it can be removed. Doing so also eliminates the forcenow
local variable from force_quiescent_state().
Because a new grace period cannot start while we are executing
within the force_quiescent_state() function's switch statement,
if any test within that switch statement or within any function
called from that switch statement shows that the current grace
period has ended, we can safely re-do that test any time before
we leave the switch statement. This means that we no longer
need a return value from rcu_process_dyntick(), as we can simply
invoke rcu_gp_in_progress() to check whether the old grace
period has finished -- there is no longer any need to worry
about whether or not a new grace period has been started.
rcu: Eliminate second argument of rcu_process_dyntick()
At this point, the second argument to all calls to
rcu_process_dyntick() is a function of the same field of the
structure passed in as the first argument, namely, rsp->gpnum-1.
So propagate rsp->gpnum-1 to all uses of the second argument
within rcu_process_dyntick() and then eliminate the second
argument.
rcu: Eliminate local variable lastcomp from force_quiescent_state()
Because rsp->fqs_active is set to 1 across
force_quiescent_state()'s switch statement, rcu_start_gp() will
refrain from starting a new grace period during this time.
Therefore, rsp->gpnum is constant, and can be propagated to all
uses of lastcomp, eliminating this local variable.
rcu: Eliminate local variable signaled from force_quiescent_state()
Because the root rcu_node lock is held across entry to the
switch statement in force_quiescent_state(), it is no longer
necessary to snapshot rsp->signaled to a local variable.
Eliminate both the snapshotting and the local variable.
rcu: Prohibit starting new grace periods while forcing quiescent states
Reduce the number and variety of race conditions by prohibiting
the start of a new grace period while force_quiescent_state() is
active. A new fqs_active flag in the rcu_state structure is used
to trace whether or not force_quiescent_state() is active, and
this new flag is tested by rcu_start_gp(). If the CPU that
closed out the last grace period needs another grace period,
this new grace period may be delayed up to one scheduling-clock
tick, but it will eventually get started.
This patch releases rnp->lock after the end of
force_quiescent_state()'s switch statement. This is a second
step towards prohibiting starting grace periods while
force_quiescent_state() is executing, which will reduce the
number and complexity of races that force_quiescent_state() is
involved in.
This causes rnp->lock to be held on entry to
force_quiescent_state()'s switch statement. This is a first
step towards prohibiting starting grace periods while
force_quiescent_state() is executing, which will reduce the
number and complexity of races that force_quiescent_state() is
involved in.

sata_promise: don't classify overruns as HSM errors
When sata_promise encounters an overrun or underrun error it
translates that to a libata AC_ERR_HSM, causing a hard reset.
Since over/under-runs were thought to be rare and transient,
this action seemed reasonable.
Unfortunately it turns out that the controller throws overrun
errors when e.g. hal polls a CD or DVD writer containing blank
media, causing long sequences of hard resets and retries before
EH finally gives up.
This patch updates sata_promise to classify over/under-runs as
AC_ERR_OTHER instead. This allows libata EH and upper layers to
retry or fail the operation as they see fit without the disruption
caused by repeated hard resets.

userspace can arrange for those pointers to actually be dereferencable,

To avoid this allow architectures (currently x86_64 only) to override

This is easy on x86_64 as the virtual address space is large and contains

mn10300: signal stack fix
This fixes a signal stack handling problem in the MN10300 arch. When new
threads are cloned with CLONE_VM, they don't inherit the alternate signal
stack. They do share the signal flags, though. When deciding whether to
use an alternate stack, the arch code needs to check to make sure the task
struct contains a valid alternate stack. This patch fixes the MN10300
arch by using the sas_ss_flags() test provided by sched.h rather than the
on_sig_stack() test which is insufficient by itself.

smaps: fix wrong rss count
A long time ago we regarded zero page as file_rss and vm_normal_page
doesn't return NULL.
But now, we reinstated ZERO_PAGE and vm_normal_page's implementation can
return NULL in case of zero page. Also we don't count it with file_rss
any more.
Then, RSS and PSS can't be matched. For consistency, Let's ignore zero
page in smaps_pte_range.

mmc_block: fix queue cleanup
The main bug was that 'blk_cleanup_queue()' was called while the block
device could still be in use, for example, because the card was removed
while files were still open.
In addition, to be sure that 'mmc_request()' will get called for all new
requests (so it can error them out), the queue is emptied during cleanup.
This is done after the worker thread is stopped to avoid racing with it.
Finally, it is not a device error for this to be happening, so quiet the
(sometimes very many) error messages.

kernel/signal.c: fix kernel information leak with print-fatal-signals=1
When print-fatal-signals is enabled it's possible to dump any memory
reachable by the kernel to the log by simply jumping to that address from
user space.
Or crash the system if there's some hardware with read side effects.
The fatal signals handler will dump 16 bytes at the execution address,
which is fully controlled by ring 3.
In addition when something jumps to a unmapped address there will be up to
16 additional useless page faults, which might be potentially slow (and at
least is not very efficient)
Fortunately this option is off by default and only there on i386.
But fix it by checking for kernel addresses and also stopping when there's
a page fault.
