irq_free_hwirqs() always calls irq_free_descs() with a cnt == 0

decremented in itself.

Linus Torvalds ef34c6ce49 Oleg Nesterov found and fixed a bug in the perf/ftrace/uprobes code where
running:
 
    # perf probe -x /lib/libc.so.6 syscall
    # echo 1 >> /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/probe_libc/enable
    # perf record -e probe_libc:syscall whatever
 
 kills the uprobe. Along the way he found some other minor bugs and clean ups
 that he fixed up making it a total of 4 patches.
 
 Doing unrelated work, I found that the reading of the ftrace trace
 file disables all function tracer callbacks. This was fine when ftrace
 was the only user, but now that it's used by perf and kprobes, this
 is a bug where reading trace can disable kprobes and perf. A very unexpected
 side effect and should be fixed.

Oleg Nesterov fb6bab6a5a tracing/uprobes: Fix the usage of uprobe_buffer_enable() in probe_event_enable()
The usage of uprobe_buffer_enable() added by dcad1a20 is very wrong,

1. uprobe_buffer_enable() and uprobe_buffer_disable() are not balanced,
   _enable() should be called only if !enabled.

2. If uprobe_buffer_enable() fails probe_event_enable() should clear
   tp.flags and free event_file_link.

3. If uprobe_register() fails it should do uprobe_buffer_disable().

Oleg Nesterov f786106e80 tracing/uprobes: Kill the bogus UPROBE_HANDLER_REMOVE code in uprobe_dispatcher()
I do not know why dd9fa555d7 "tracing/uprobes: Move argument fetching
to uprobe_dispatcher()" added the UPROBE_HANDLER_REMOVE, but it looks
wrong.

OK, perhaps it makes sense to avoid store_trace_args() if the tracee is
nacked by uprobe_perf_filter(). But then we should kill the same code
in uprobe_perf_func() and unify the TRACE/PROFILE filtering (we need to
do this anyway to mix perf/ftrace). Until then this code actually adds
the pessimization because uprobe_perf_filter() will be called twice and
return T in likely case.

Oleg Nesterov 06d0713904 uprobes: Change unregister/apply to WARN() if uprobe/consumer is gone
Add WARN_ON's into uprobe_unregister() and uprobe_apply() to ensure
that nobody tries to play with the dead uprobe/consumer. This helps
to catch the bugs like the one fixed by the previous patch.

In the longer term we should fix this poorly designed interface.
uprobe_register() should return "struct uprobe *" which should be
passed to apply/unregister. Plus other semantic changes, see the
changelog in commit 41ccba029e.

Oleg Nesterov 4821254206 tracing/uprobes: Revert "Support mix of ftrace and perf"
This reverts commit 43fe98913c.

This patch is very wrong. Firstly, this change leads to unbalanced
uprobe_unregister(). Just for example,

	# perf probe -x /lib/libc.so.6 syscall
	# echo 1 >> /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/probe_libc/enable
	# perf record -e probe_libc:syscall whatever

after that uprobe is dead (unregistered) but the user of ftrace/perf
can't know this, and it looks as if nobody hits this probe.

This would be easy to fix, but there are other reasons why it is not
simple to mix ftrace and perf. If nothing else, they can't share the
same ->consumer.filter. This is fixable too, but probably we need to
fix the poorly designed uprobe_register() interface first. At least
"register" and "apply" should be clearly separated.

Linus Torvalds b8e46d22dc This includes three patches from Oleg Nesterov. The first is a fix to a
race condition that happens between enabling/disabling syscall tracepoints
 and new process creations (the check to go into the ptrace path for a process
 can be set when it shouldn't, or not set when it should). Not a major bug
 but one that should be fixed and even applied to stable.
 
 The other two patches are cleanup/fixes that are not that critical, but
 for an -rc1 release would be nice to have. They both deal with syscall
 tracepoints.
 
 It also includes a patch to introduce a new macro for the TRACE_EVENT()
 format called __field_struct(). Originally, __field() was used to record
 any variable into a trace event, but with the addition of setting the
 "is signed" attribute, the check causes anything but a primitive variable
 to fail to compile. That is, structs and unions can't be used as they
 once were. When the "is signed" check was introduce there were only
 primitive variables being recorded. But that will change soon and it
 was reported that __field() causes build failures.
 
 To solve the __field() issue, __field_struct() is introduced to allow
 trace_events to be able to record complex types too.

Aaron Tomlin ed235875e2 kernel/watchdog.c: print traces for all cpus on lockup detection
A 'softlockup' is defined as a bug that causes the kernel to loop in
kernel mode for more than a predefined period to time, without giving
other tasks a chance to run.

Currently, upon detection of this condition by the per-cpu watchdog
task, debug information (including a stack trace) is sent to the system
log.

On some occasions, we have observed that the "victim" rather than the
actual "culprit" (i.e.  the owner/holder of the contended resource) is
reported to the user.  Often this information has proven to be
insufficient to assist debugging efforts.

To avoid loss of useful debug information, for architectures which
support NMI, this patch makes it possible to improve soft lockup
reporting.  This is accomplished by issuing an NMI to each cpu to obtain
a stack trace.

If NMI is not supported we just revert back to the old method.  A sysctl
and boot-time parameter is available to toggle this feature.

However, if the percpu_pagelist_fraction sysctl is set by the user, it
is also impossible to restore it to the kernel default since the user
cannot write 0 to the sysctl.

This patch allows the user to write 0 to restore the default behavior.
It still requires a fraction equal to or larger than 8, however, as
stated by the documentation for sanity.  If a value in the range [1, 7]
is written, the sysctl will return EINVAL.

This successfully solves the divide by zero issue at the same time.

What happened is after updating the watchdog_thresh, the lockup detector
is restarted to utilize the new value.  Part of this process involved
disabling preemption.  Once preemption was disabled, perf tried to
allocate a new event (as part of the restart).  This caused the above
BUG_ON as you can't sleep with preemption disabled.

The preemption restriction seemed agressive as we are not doing anything
on that particular cpu, but with all the online cpus (which are
protected by the get_online_cpus lock).  Remove the restriction and the
BUG_ON goes away.

Petr Tesarik b3acc56bfe kexec: save PG_head_mask in VMCOREINFO
To allow filtering of huge pages, makedumpfile must be able to identify
them in the dump.  This can be done by checking the appropriate page
flag, so communicate its value to makedumpfile through the VMCOREINFO
interface.

There's only one small catch.  Depending on how many page flags are
available on a given architecture, this bit can be called PG_head or
PG_compound.

I sent a similar patch back in 2012, but Eric Biederman did not like
using an #ifdef.  So, this time I'm adding a common symbol
(PG_head_mask) instead.

See https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/11/28/91 for the previous version.

Srivatsa S. Bhat 8d056c48e4 CPU hotplug, smp: flush any pending IPI callbacks before CPU offline
There is a race between the CPU offline code (within stop-machine) and
the smp-call-function code, which can lead to getting IPIs on the
outgoing CPU, *after* it has gone offline.

Specifically, this can happen when using
smp_call_function_single_async() to send the IPI, since this API allows
sending asynchronous IPIs from IRQ disabled contexts.  The exact race
condition is described below.

During CPU offline, in stop-machine, we don't enforce any rule in the
_DISABLE_IRQ stage, regarding the order in which the outgoing CPU and
the other CPUs disable their local interrupts.  Due to this, we can
encounter a situation in which an IPI is sent by one of the other CPUs
to the outgoing CPU (while it is *still* online), but the outgoing CPU
ends up noticing it only *after* it has gone offline.

              CPU 1                                         CPU 2
          (Online CPU)                               (CPU going offline)

                                                     the CPU is offline at
                                                     this point.

This of course, makes the smp-call-function IPI handler code running on
CPU 2 unhappy and it complains about "receiving an IPI on an offline
CPU".

One real example of the scenario on CPU 1 is the block layer's
complete-request call-path:

	__blk_complete_request() [interrupt-handler]
	    raise_blk_irq()
	        smp_call_function_single_async()

However, if we look closely, the block layer does check that the target
CPU is online before firing the IPI.  So in this case, it is actually
the unfortunate ordering/timing of events in the stop-machine phase that
leads to receiving IPIs after the target CPU has gone offline.

In reality, getting a late IPI on an offline CPU is not too bad by
itself (this can happen even due to hardware latencies in IPI
send-receive).  It is a bug only if the target CPU really went offline
without executing all the callbacks queued on its list.  (Note that a
CPU is free to execute its pending smp-call-function callbacks in a
batch, without waiting for the corresponding IPIs to arrive for each one
of those callbacks).

So, fixing this issue can be broken up into two parts:

1. Ensure that a CPU goes offline only after executing all the
   callbacks queued on it.

2. Modify the warning condition in the smp-call-function IPI handler
   code such that it warns only if an offline CPU got an IPI *and* that
   CPU had gone offline with callbacks still pending in its queue.

Achieving part 1 is straight-forward - just flush (execute) all the
queued callbacks on the outgoing CPU in the CPU_DYING stage[1],
including those callbacks for which the source CPU's IPIs might not have
been received on the outgoing CPU yet.  Once we do this, an IPI that
arrives late on the CPU going offline (either due to the race mentioned
above, or due to hardware latencies) will be completely harmless, since
the outgoing CPU would have executed all the queued callbacks before
going offline.

Overall, this fix (parts 1 and 2 put together) additionally guarantees
that we will see a warning only when the *IPI-sender code* is buggy -
that is, if it queues the callback _after_ the target CPU has gone
offline.

[1].  The CPU_DYING part needs a little more explanation: by the time we
execute the CPU_DYING notifier callbacks, the CPU would have already
been marked offline.  But we want to flush out the pending callbacks at
this stage, ignoring the fact that the CPU is offline.  So restructure
the IPI handler code so that we can by-pass the "is-cpu-offline?" check
in this particular case.  (Of course, the right solution here is to fix
CPU hotplug to mark the CPU offline _after_ invoking the CPU_DYING
notifiers, but this requires a lot of audit to ensure that this change
doesn't break any existing code; hence lets go with the solution
proposed above until that is done).

Oleg Nesterov ea73c79e33 tracing: syscall_regfunc() should not skip kernel threads
syscall_regfunc() ignores the kernel threads because "it has no effect",
see cc3b13c1 "Don't trace kernel thread syscalls" which added this check.

However, this means that a user-space task spawned by call_usermodehelper()
will run without TIF_SYSCALL_TRACEPOINT if sys_tracepoint_refcount != 0.

Remove this check. The unnecessary report from ret_from_fork path mentioned
by cc3b13c1 is no longer possible, see See commit fb45550d76 "make sure
that kernel_thread() callbacks call do_exit() themselves".

A kernel_thread() callback can only return and take the int_ret_from_sys_call
path after do_execve() succeeds, otherwise the kernel will crash. But in this
case it is no longer a kernel thread and thus is needs TIF_SYSCALL_TRACEPOINT.

2. Change this code to avoid the deprecated do_each_thread()

3. Change syscall_regfunc() to check PF_KTHREAD to skip

Thomas Gleixner 27e35715df rtmutex: Plug slow unlock race
When the rtmutex fast path is enabled the slow unlock function can
create the following situation:

spin_lock(foo->m->wait_lock);
foo->m->owner = NULL;
	    			rt_mutex_lock(foo->m); <-- fast path
				free = atomic_dec_and_test(foo->refcnt);
				rt_mutex_unlock(foo->m); <-- fast path
				if (free)
				   kfree(foo);

spin_unlock(foo->m->wait_lock); <--- Use after free.

Plug the race by changing the slow unlock to the following scheme:

     while (!rt_mutex_has_waiters(m)) {
     	    /* Clear the waiters bit in m->owner */
	    clear_rt_mutex_waiters(m);
      	    owner = rt_mutex_owner(m);
      	    spin_unlock(m->wait_lock);
      	    if (cmpxchg(m->owner, owner, 0) == owner)
      	       return;
      	    spin_lock(m->wait_lock);
     }

So in case of a new waiter incoming while the owner tries the slow
path unlock we have two situations:

 unlock(wait_lock);
					lock(wait_lock);
 cmpxchg(p, owner, 0) == owner
 	    	   			mark_rt_mutex_waiters(lock);
	 				acquire(lock);

Or:

 unlock(wait_lock);
					lock(wait_lock);
	 				mark_rt_mutex_waiters(lock);
 cmpxchg(p, owner, 0) != owner
					enqueue_waiter();
					unlock(wait_lock);
 lock(wait_lock);
 wakeup_next waiter();
 unlock(wait_lock);
					lock(wait_lock);
					acquire(lock);

If the fast path is disabled, then the simple

   m->owner = NULL;
   unlock(m->wait_lock);

is sufficient as all access to m->owner is serialized via
m->wait_lock;

Also document and clarify the wakeup_next_waiter function as suggested
by Oleg Nesterov.

Masami Hiramatsu 4cdf77a828 x86/kprobes: Fix build errors and blacklist context_track_user
This essentially reverts commit:

  ecd50f714c ("kprobes, x86: Call exception_enter after kprobes handled")

since it causes build errors with CONFIG_CONTEXT_TRACKING and
that has been made from misunderstandings;
context_track_user_*() don't involve much in interrupt context,
it just returns if in_interrupt() is true.

Instead of changing the do_debug/int3(), this just adds
context_track_user_*() to kprobes blacklist, since those are
still can be called right before kprobes handles int3 and debug
exceptions, and probing those will cause an infinite loop.

This patch handles the gcov-related changes in GCC 4.9:

  A new counter (time profile) is added. The total number is 9 now.

  A new profile merge function __gcov_merge_time_profile is added.

See gcc/gcov-io.h and libgcc/libgcov-merge.c

For the first change, the layout of struct gcov_info is affected.

For the second one, a dummy function is added to kernel/gcov/base.c
similarly.

Andy Lutomirski 23adbe12ef fs,userns: Change inode_capable to capable_wrt_inode_uidgid
The kernel has no concept of capabilities with respect to inodes; inodes
exist independently of namespaces.  For example, inode_capable(inode,
CAP_LINUX_IMMUTABLE) would be nonsense.

This patch changes inode_capable to check for uid and gid mappings and
renames it to capable_wrt_inode_uidgid, which should make it more
obvious what it does.

Fixes CVE-2014-4014.

The check that tests if ftrace_trace_arrays is empty in
top_trace_array(), uses the .prev pointer:

  if (list_empty(ftrace_trace_arrays.prev))

instead of testing the variable itself:

  if (list_empty(&ftrace_trace_arrays))

Although it is technically correct, it is awkward and confusing.
Use the proper method.

Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) f0b70cc48c tracing: Fix leak of per cpu max data in instances
The freeing of an instance, if max data is configured, there will be
per cpu data structures created. But these are not freed when the instance
is deleted, which causes a memory leak.

A new helper function is added that frees the individual buffers within a
trace array, instead of duplicating the code. This way changes made for one
are applied to the other (normal buffer vs max buffer).

Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) 8b8b36834d ring-buffer: Check if buffer exists before polling
The per_cpu buffers are created one per possible CPU. But these do
not mean that those CPUs are online, nor do they even exist.

With the addition of the ring buffer polling, it assumes that the
caller polls on an existing buffer. But this is not the case if
the user reads trace_pipe from a CPU that does not exist, and this
causes the kernel to crash.

Simple fix is to check the cpu against buffer bitmask against to see

not.

More updates were done to pass the -ENODEV back up to userspace.

Linus Torvalds 214b931320 Lots of tweaks, small fixes, optimizations, and some helper functions
to help out the rest of the kernel to ease their use of trace events.
 
 The big change for this release is the allowing of other tracers,
 such as the latency tracers, to be used in the trace instances and allow
 for function or function graph tracing to be in the top level
 simultaneously.

Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo:
 "A lot of activities on cgroup side.  Heavy restructuring including
  locking simplification took place to improve the code base and enable
  implementation of the unified hierarchy, which currently exists behind
  a __DEVEL__ mount option.  The core support is mostly complete but
  individual controllers need further work.  To explain the design and
  rationales of the the unified hierarchy

        Documentation/cgroups/unified-hierarchy.txt

  is added.

  Another notable change is css (cgroup_subsys_state - what each
  controller uses to identify and interact with a cgroup) iteration
  update.  This is part of continuing updates on css object lifetime and
  visibility.  cgroup started with reference count draining on removal
  way back and is now reaching a point where csses behave and are
  iterated like normal refcnted objects albeit with some complexities to
  allow distinguishing the state where they're being deleted.  The css
  iteration update isn't taken advantage of yet but is planned to be
  used to simplify memcg significantly"

Don Zickus a5a5ba7284 Revert "perf: Disable PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 support"
This reverts commit 3090ffb5a2.

Re-enable the mmap2 interface as we will have a user soon.

Since things have changed since perf disabled mmap2, small tweaks
to the revert had to be done:

o commit 9d4ecc88 forced (n!=8) to become (n<7)
o a new libunwind test needed updating to use mmap2 interface

Peter Zijlstra f972eb63b1 perf: Pass protection and flags bits through mmap2 interface
The mmap2 interface was missing the protection and flags bits needed to
accurately determine if a mmap memory area was shared or private and
if it was readable or not.

Rik van Riel 1662867a9b numa,sched: fix load_to_imbalanced logic inversion
This function is supposed to return true if the new load imbalance is
worse than the old one.  It didn't.  I can only hope brown paper bags
are in style.

Now things converge much better on both the 4 node and 8 node systems.

I am not sure why this did not seem to impact specjbb performance on the
4 node system, which is the system I have full-time access to.

This bug was introduced recently, with commit e63da03639 ("sched/numa:
Allow task switch if load imbalance improves")
