shm: make exit_shm work proportional to task activity
This is small set of patches our team has had kicking around for a few
versions internally that fixes tasks getting hung on shm_exit when there
are many threads hammering it at once.
Anton wrote a simple test to cause the issue:
http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/bust_shm_exit.c
Before applying this patchset, this test code will cause either hanging
tracebacks or pthread out of memory errors.
After this patchset, it will still produce output like:
root@somehost:~# ./bust_shm_exit 1024 160
...
INFO: rcu_sched detected stalls on CPUs/tasks: {} (detected by 116, t=2111 jiffies, g=241, c=240, q=7113)
INFO: Stall ended before state dump start
...
But the task will continue to run along happily, so we consider this an
improvement over hanging, even if it's a bit noisy.
This patch (of 3):
exit_shm obtains the ipc_ns shm rwsem for write and holds it while it
walks every shared memory segment in the namespace. Thus the amount of
work is related to the number of shm segments in the namespace not the
number of segments that might need to be cleaned.
In addition, this occurs after the task has been notified the thread has
exited, so the number of tasks waiting for the ns shm rwsem can grow
without bound until memory is exausted.
Add a list to the task struct of all shmids allocated by this task. Init
the list head in copy_process. Use the ns->rwsem for locking. Add
segments after id is added, remove before removing from id.
On unshare of NEW_IPCNS orphan any ids as if the task had exited, similar
to handling of semaphore undo.
I chose a define for the init sequence since its a simple list init,
otherwise it would require a function call to avoid include loops between
the semaphore code and the task struct. Converting the list_del to
list_del_init for the unshare cases would remove the exit followed by
init, but I left it blow up if not inited.

initramfs: support initrd that is bigger than 2GiB
When initrd (compressed or not) is used, kernel report data corrupted with

The root cause:
During initramfs checking, if it is initrd, it will be transferred to
/initrd.image with sys_write.
sys_write only support 2G-4K write, so if the initrd ram is more than
that, /initrd.image will not complete at all.
Add local xwrite to loop calling sys_write to workaround the problem.
Also need to use xwrite in write_buffer() to handle:
image is uncompressed cpio and there is one big file (>2G) in it.
unpack_to_rootfs ===> write_buffer ===> actions[]/do_copy
At the same time, we don't need to worry about sys_read/sys_write in

Rework Tsi721 RapidIO DMA engine support to allow handling data

The current implementation of Tsi721 DMA transfers requires that number of
entries in a scatter/gather list provided by a caller of
dmaengine_prep_rio_sg() should not exceed number of allocated hardware
buffer descriptors.
This patch removes the limitation by processing long scatter/gather lists
by sections that can be transferred using hardware descriptor ring of
configured size. It also introduces a module parameter
"dma_desc_per_channel" to allow run-time configuration of Tsi721 hardware
buffer descriptor rings.

lib/idr.c: fix out-of-bounds pointer dereference
I'm working on address sanitizer project for kernel. Recently we
started experiments with stack instrumentation, to detect out-of-bounds
read/write bugs on stack.
Just after booting I've hit out-of-bounds read on stack in idr_for_each
(and in __idr_remove_all as well):
struct idr_layer **paa = &pa[0];
while (id >= 0 && id <= max) {
...
while (n < fls(id)) {
n += IDR_BITS;
p = *--paa; <--- here we are reading pa[-1] value.
}
}
Despite the fact that after this dereference we are exiting out of loop
and never use p, such behaviour is undefined and should be avoided.
Fix this by moving pointer derference to the beggining of the loop,
right before we will use it.
fs/proc/vmcore.c:mmap_vmcore: skip non-ram pages reported by hypervisors
We have a special check in read_vmcore() handler to check if the page was
reported as ram or not by the hypervisor (pfn_is_ram()). However, when
vmcore is read with mmap() no such check is performed. That can lead to
unpredictable results, e.g. when running Xen PVHVM guest memcpy() after
mmap() on /proc/vmcore will hang processing HVMMEM_mmio_dm pages creating
enormous load in both DomU and Dom0.
Fix the issue by mapping each non-ram page to the zero page. Keep direct
path with remap_oldmem_pfn_range() to avoid looping through all pages on
bare metal.
The issue can also be solved by overriding remap_oldmem_pfn_range() in
xen-specific code, as remap_oldmem_pfn_range() was been designed for.
That, however, would involve non-obvious xen code path for all x86 builds
with CONFIG_XEN_PVHVM=y and would prevent all other hypervisor-specific
code on x86 arch from doing the same override.

ib_umem_get[infiniband] and perf_mmap still check pinned_vm against
RLIMIT_MEMLOCK. It's left from the times when pinned pages were accounted
under locked_vm, but today it looks wrong. It isn't clear how we should
deal with it.
We still have some drivers accounting pinned pages under mm->locked_vm -
this is what commit bc3e53f682d9 was fighting against. It's
infiniband/usnic and vfio.

proc: faster /proc/$PID lookup
Currently lookup for /proc/$PID first goes through spinlock and whole list
of misc /proc entries only to confirm that, yes, /proc/42 can not possibly
match random proc entry.
List is is several dozens entries long (52 entries on my setup).
None of this is necessary.
Try to convert dentry name to integer first.
If it works, it must be /proc/$PID.
If it doesn't, it must be random proc entry.
Based on patch from Al Viro.

proc_uid_seq_operations, proc_gid_seq_operations and
proc_projid_seq_operations are only called in proc_id_map_open with
seq_open as const struct seq_operations so we can constify the 3
structures and update proc_id_map_open prototype.

This patch integrates creation of sysfs groups and
attributes into NILFS file system driver.
It was found the issue with nilfs_sysfs_{create/delete}_snapshot_group
functions by Michael L Semon <mlsemon35@gmail.com> in the first
version of the patch:
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/locking/mutex.c:579
in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, pid: 32676, name: umount.nilfs2
2 locks held by umount.nilfs2/32676:
#0: (&type->s_umount_key#21){++++..}, at: [<790c18e2>] deactivate_super+0x37/0x58
#1: (&(&nilfs->ns_cptree_lock)->rlock){+.+...}, at: [<791bf659>] nilfs_put_root+0x23/0x5a
Preemption disabled at:[<791bf659>] nilfs_put_root+0x23/0x5a
The reason of the issue was placement of
nilfs_sysfs_{create/delete}_snapshot_group() call under
nilfs->ns_cptree_lock protection. But this protection is unnecessary and
wrong solution. The second version of the patch fixes this issue.
