The wake_up_process() call in ptrace_detach() is spurious and not
interlocked with the tracee state. IOW, the tracee could be running or
sleeping in any place in the kernel by the time wake_up_process() is
called. This can lead to the tracee waking up unexpectedly which can be
dangerous.
The wake_up is spurious and should be removed but for now reduce its
toxicity by only waking up if the tracee is in TRACED or STOPPED state.
This bug can possibly be used as an attack vector. I don't think it
will take too much effort to come up with an attack which triggers oops
somewhere. Most sleeps are wrapped in condition test loops and should
be safe but we have quite a number of places where sleep and wakeup
conditions are expected to be interlocked. Although the window of
opportunity is tiny, ptrace can be used by non-privileged users and with
some loading the window can definitely be extended and exploited.

In commit fa0d7e3de6 ("fs: icache RCU free inodes"), we use rcu free
inode instead of freeing the inode directly. It causes a crash when we
rmmod immediately after we umount the volume[1].
So we need to call rcu_barrier after we kill_sb so that the inode is
freed before we do rmmod. The idea is inspired by Aneesh Kumar.
rcu_barrier will wait for all callbacks to end before preceding. The
original patch was done by Tao Ma, but synchronize_rcu() is not enough
here.

In commit 31e6b01f41 ("fs: rcu-walk for path lookup") we started doing
path lookup using RCU, which then falls back to a careful non-RCU lookup
in case of problems (LOOKUP_REVAL). So do_filp_open() has this "re-do
the lookup carefully" looping case.
However, that means that we must not release the open-intent file data
if we are going to loop around and use it once more!
Fix this by moving the release of the open-intent data to the function
that allocates it (do_filp_open() itself) rather than the helper
functions that can get called multiple times (finish_open() and
do_last()). This makes the logic for the lifetime of that field much
more obvious, and avoids the possible double free.

Slight revision to this patch...use min_t() instead of conditional
assignment. Also, remove the FIXME comment and replace it with the
explanation that Steve gave earlier.
After receiving a packet, we currently check the header. If it's no
good, then we toss it out and continue the loop, leaving the caller
waiting on that response.
In cases where the packet has length inconsistencies, but the MID is
valid, this leads to unneeded delays. That's especially problematic now
that the client waits indefinitely for responses.
Instead, don't immediately discard the packet if checkSMB fails. Try to
find a matching mid_q_entry, mark it as having a malformed response and
issue the callback.

That lead me and David Ahern to see that something was fishy on the thread
synthesizing routines, at least for the case where the workload is started
from 'perf record', as -1 is the default for target_tid in 'perf record --tid'
parameter, so somehow we were trying to synthesize the PERF_RECORD_MMAP and
PERF_RECORD_COMM events for the thread -1, a bug.
So I investigated this and noticed that when we introduced support for
recording a process and its threads using --pid some bugs were introduced and
that the way to fix it was to instead of passing the target_tid to the event
synthesizing routines we should better pass the thread_map that has the list of
threads for a --pid or just the single thread for a --tid.

^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.108 MB perf.data (~4719 samples) ]
[root@emilia ~]#
This will create one extra thread per CPU:
[root@emilia ~]# tuna -t cyclictest -CP
thread ctxt_switches
pid SCHED_ rtpri affinity voluntary nonvoluntary cmd
28825 OTHER 0 0xff 2169 671 cyclictest
28832 FIFO 93 6 52338 1 cyclictest
28833 FIFO 92 7 46524 1 cyclictest
28826 FIFO 99 0 209360 1 cyclictest
28827 FIFO 98 1 139577 1 cyclictest
28828 FIFO 97 2 104686 0 cyclictest
28829 FIFO 96 3 83751 1 cyclictest
28830 FIFO 95 4 69794 1 cyclictest
28831 FIFO 94 5 59825 1 cyclictest
[root@emilia ~]#
So we should expect only samples for the above 9 threads when using the
--dump-raw-trace|-D perf report switch to look at the column with the tid:
[root@emilia ~]# perf report -D | grep RECORD_SAMPLE | cut -d/ -f2 | cut -d: -f1 | sort | uniq -c
629 28825
110 28826
491 28827
308 28828
198 28829
621 28830
225 28831
203 28832
89 28833
[root@emilia ~]#
So for workloads started by 'perf record' seems to work, now for existing workloads,
just run cyclictest first, without 'perf record':
[root@emilia ~]# tuna -t cyclictest -CP
thread ctxt_switches
pid SCHED_ rtpri affinity voluntary nonvoluntary cmd
28859 OTHER 0 0xff 594 200 cyclictest
28864 FIFO 95 4 16587 1 cyclictest
28865 FIFO 94 5 14219 1 cyclictest
28866 FIFO 93 6 12443 0 cyclictest
28867 FIFO 92 7 11062 1 cyclictest
28860 FIFO 99 0 49779 1 cyclictest
28861 FIFO 98 1 33190 1 cyclictest
28862 FIFO 97 2 24895 1 cyclictest
28863 FIFO 96 3 19918 1 cyclictest
[root@emilia ~]#
and then later did:
[root@emilia ~]# perf record --pid 28859 sleep 3
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.027 MB perf.data (~1195 samples) ]
[root@emilia ~]#
To collect 3 seconds worth of samples for pid 28859 and its children:
[root@emilia ~]# perf report -D | grep RECORD_SAMPLE | cut -d/ -f2 | cut -d: -f1 | sort | uniq -c
15 28859
33 28860
19 28861
13 28862
13 28863
10 28864
11 28865
9 28866
255 28867
[root@emilia ~]#
Works, last thing is to check if looking at just one of those threads also works:
[root@emilia ~]# perf record --tid 28866 sleep 3
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.006 MB perf.data (~242 samples) ]
[root@emilia ~]# perf report -D | grep RECORD_SAMPLE | cut -d/ -f2 | cut -d: -f1 | sort | uniq -c
3 28866
[root@emilia ~]#
Works too.

amd64_debug_display_dimm_sizes() reports the distribution of the DIMMs
on each DRAM controller and its chip select sizes. Thus, the last don't
have anything to do with whether we're running in ganged DCT mode or not
- their sizes don't change all of a sudden. Fix that by removing the
ganged-check and dump DCT0's config for DCT1 when in ganged mode since
they're identical.

SWP emulation requires that CPU domain support is disabled in order to
work safely. Make that explicit in the kernel configuration to prevent
illegal configurations being generated.
