2010-08-31workqueue: use zalloc_cpumask_var() for gcwq->mayday_maskTejun Heo
alloc_mayday_mask() was using alloc_cpumask_var() making gcwq->mayday_mask contain garbage after initialization on CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y configurations. This combined with the previously fixed GCWQ_DISASSOCIATED initialization bug could make rescuers fall into infinite loop trying to bind to an offline cpu.

2010-08-31workqueue: fix GCWQ_DISASSOCIATED initializationTejun Heo
init_workqueues() incorrectly marks workqueues for all possible CPUs associated. Combined with mayday_mask initialization bug, this can make rescuers keep trying to bind to an offline gcwq indefinitely. Fix init_workqueues() such that only online CPUs have their gcwqs have GCWQ_DISASSOCIATED cleared. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Reported-by: CAI Qian <caiqian@redhat.com>

2010-08-25workqueue: fix cwq->nr_active underflowTejun Heo
cwq->nr_active is used to keep track of how many work items are active for the cpu workqueue, where 'active' is defined as either pending on global worklist or executing. This is used to implement the max_active limit and workqueue freezing. If a work item is queued after nr_active has already reached max_active, the work item doesn't increment nr_active and is put on the delayed queue and gets activated later as previous active work items retire. try_to_grab_pending() which is used in the cancellation path unconditionally decremented nr_active whether the work item being cancelled is currently active or delayed, so cancelling a delayed work item makes nr_active underflow. This breaks max_active enforcement and triggers BUG_ON() in destroy_workqueue() later on. This patch fixes this bug by adding a flag WORK_STRUCT_DELAYED, which is set while a work item in on the delayed list and making try_to_grab_pending() decrement nr_active iff the work item is currently active. The addition of the flag enlarges cwq alignment to 256 bytes which is getting a bit too large. It's scheduled to be reduced back to 128 bytes by merging WORK_STRUCT_PENDING and WORK_STRUCT_CWQ in the next devel cycle.

2010-08-24workqueue: improve destroy_workqueue() debuggabilityTejun Heo
Now that the worklist is global, having works pending after wq destruction can easily lead to oops and destroy_workqueue() have several BUG_ON()s to catch these cases. Unfortunately, BUG_ON() doesn't tell much about how the work became pending after the final flush_workqueue(). This patch adds WQ_DYING which is set before the final flush begins. If a work is requested to be queued on a dying workqueue, WARN_ON_ONCE() is triggered and the request is ignored. This clearly indicates which caller is trying to queue a work on a dying workqueue and keeps the system working in most cases. Locking rule comment is updated such that the 'I' rule includes modifying the field from destruction path. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

2010-08-15arch/tile: don't validate CROSS_COMPILE needlesslyChris Metcalf
With this change, the arch/tile Makefile will only check for a valid combination of CROSS_COMPILE vs "uname -m" for a few common targets that are typically the ones we get wrong (vmlinux, all, and modules). The change handles the case of an empty "make" goal like "make all". Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com> Reviewed-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>
2010-08-15mm: fix up some user-visible effects of the stack guard pageLinus Torvalds
This commit makes the stack guard page somewhat less visible to user space. It does this by: - not showing the guard page in /proc/<pid>/maps It looks like lvm-tools will actually read /proc/self/maps to figure out where all its mappings are, and effectively do a specialized "mlockall()" in user space. By not showing the guard page as part of the mapping (by just adding PAGE_SIZE to the start for grows-up pages), lvm-tools ends up not being aware of it. - by also teaching the _real_ mlock() functionality not to try to lock the guard page. That would just expand the mapping down to create a new guard page, so there really is no point in trying to lock it in place. It would perhaps be nice to show the guard page specially in /proc/<pid>/maps (or at least mark grow-down segments some way), but let's not open ourselves up to more breakage by user space from programs that depends on the exact deails of the 'maps' file. Special thanks to Henrique de Moraes Holschuh for diving into lvm-tools source code to see what was going on with the whole new warning.
