kmsg_dump: Dump on crash_kexec as well
crash_kexec gets called before kmsg_dump(KMSG_DUMP_OOPS) if
panic_on_oops is set, so the kernel log buffer is not stored
for this case.
This patch adds a KMSG_DUMP_KEXEC dump type which gets called
when crash_kexec() is invoked. To avoid getting double dumps,
the old KMSG_DUMP_PANIC is moved below crash_kexec(). The
mtdoops driver is modified to handle KMSG_DUMP_KEXEC in the
same way as a panic.

at the point in xpc_send_gru_msg() where the hardware has dispatched the

The adjustment of msg_slot_number and the BUG_ON in

Currently the locking in blockdev_direct_IO is a mess, we have three
different locking types and very confusing checks for some of them. The
most complicated one is DIO_OWN_LOCKING for reads, which happens to not
actually be used.
This patch gets rid of the DIO_OWN_LOCKING - as mentioned above the read
case is unused anyway, and the write side is almost identical to
DIO_NO_LOCKING. The difference is that DIO_NO_LOCKING always sets the
create argument for the get_blocks callback to zero, but we can easily
move that to the actual get_blocks callbacks. There are four users of the
DIO_NO_LOCKING mode: gfs already ignores the create argument and thus is
fine with the new version, ocfs2 only errors out if create were ever set,
and we can remove this dead code now, the block device code only ever uses
create for an error message if we are fully beyond the device which can
never happen, and last but not least XFS will need the new behavour for
writes.
Now we can replace the lock_type variable with a flags one, where no flag
means the DIO_NO_LOCKING behaviour and DIO_LOCKING is kept as the first
flag. Separate out the check for not allowing to fill holes into a
separate flag, although for now both flags always get set at the same
time.
Also revamp the documentation of the locking scheme to actually make
sense.

dio: zero struct dio with kzalloc instead of manually
This patch uses kzalloc to zero all of struct dio rather than
manually trying to track which fields we rely on being zero. It
passed aio+dio stress testing and some bug regression testing on
ext3.
This patch was introduced by Linus in the conversation that lead up
to Badari's minimal fix to manually zero .map_bh.b_state in commit:
I was unable to measure a stable difference in the number of cpu
cycles spent in blockdev_direct_IO() when pushing aio+dio 256K reads
at ~340MB/s.
So the resulting intent of the patch isn't a performance gain but to
avoid exposing ourselves to the risk of finding another field like
.map_bh.b_state where we rely on zeroing but don't enforce it in the
code.
Zach surmised that zeroing out the page array was what caused most of
the problem, and suggested the approach taken in the attached patch for
resolving the issue. Intel re-tested with this patch and saw a 0.6%
performance gain (the original regression was 0.5%).

ipc/sem.c: optimize single sops when semval is zero
If multiple simple decrements on the same semaphore are pending, then the
current code scans all decrement operations, even if the semaphore value
is already 0.
The patch optimizes that: if the semaphore value is 0, then there is no
need to scan the q->alter entries.
Note that this is a common case: It happens if 100 decrements by one are
pending and now an increment by one increases the semaphore value from 0
to 1. Without this patch, all 100 entries are scanned. With the patch,
only one entry is scanned, then woken up. Then the new rule triggers and
the scanning is aborted, without looking at the remaining 99 tasks.
With this patch, single sop increment/decrement by 1 are now O(1).
(same as with Nick's patch)

ipc/sem.c: optimize single semop operations
sysv sem has the concept of semaphore arrays that consist out of multiple
semaphores. Atomic operations that affect multiple semaphores are
supported.
The patch optimizes single semaphore operation calls that affect only one
semaphore: It's not necessary to scan all pending operations, it is
sufficient to scan the per-semaphore list.
The idea is from Nick Piggin version of an ipc sem improvement, the
implementation is different: The code tries to keep as much common code as
possible.
As the result, the patch is simpler, but optimizes fewer cases.

Based on Nick's findings:
sysv sem has the concept of semaphore arrays that consist out of multiple
semaphores. Atomic operations that affect multiple semaphores are

The patch is the first step for optimizing simple, single semaphore
operations: In addition to the global list of all pending operations, a
2nd, per-semaphore list with the simple operations is added.
Note: this patch does not make sense by itself, the new list is used
nowhere.

ipc/sem.c: optimize if semops fail
Reduce the amount of scanning of the list of pending semaphore operations:
If try_atomic_semop failed, then no changes were applied. Thus no need to
restart.
Additionally, this patch correct an incorrect comment: It's possible to
wait for arbitrary semaphore values (do a dec by <x>, wait-for-zero, inc
by <x> in one atomic operation)
Both changes are from Nick Piggin, the patch is the result of a different
split of the individual changes.

ipc/sem.c: sem preempt improve
The strange sysv semaphore wakeup scheme has a kind of busy-wait lock
involved, which could deadlock if preemption is enabled during the "lock".
It is an implementation detail (due to a spinlock being held) that this is
actually the case. However if "spinlocks" are made preemptible, or if the
sem lock is changed to a sleeping lock for example, then the wakeup would
become buggy. So this might be a bugfix for -rt kernels.
Imagine waker being preempted by wakee and never clearing IN_WAKEUP -- if
wakee has higher RT priority then there is a priority inversion deadlock.
Even if there is not a priority inversion to cause a deadlock, then there
is still time wasted spinning.

ipc/sem.c: sem optimise undo list search
Around a month ago, there was some discussion about an improvement of the
sysv sem algorithm: Most (at least: some important) users only use simple
semaphore operations, therefore it's worthwile to optimize this use case.
This patch:
Move last looked up sem_undo struct to the head of the task's undo list.
Attempt to move common entries to the front of the list so search time is
reduced. This reduces lookup_undo on oprofile of problematic SAP workload
by 30% (see patch 4 for a description of SAP workload).

This patch simply frees them when the ipcns is freed. I don't believe any
idr_remove() are done from rcu (and could therefore be delayed until after
this idr_destroy()), so the patch should be safe. Some quick testing
showed no harm, and the memory leak fixed.

This fixes reparent_thread()->group_send_sig_info(pdeath_signal)

cross-namespace case when the child of the dying parent belongs to the
sub-namespace.
This patch can affect the behaviour of send_sig(), kill_pgrp() and
kill_pid() when the caller sends the signal to the sub-namespace with
"priv == 0" but surprisingly all callers seem to use them correctly,
