Now that we have uprobe_dup_mmap() we can fold uprobe_reset_state()
into the new hook and remove it. mmput()->uprobe_clear_state() can't
be called before dup_mmap().

Add the new MMF_HAS_UPROBES flag. It is set by install_breakpoint()
and it is copied by dup_mmap(), uprobe_pre_sstep_notifier() checks
it to avoid the slow path if the task was never probed. Perhaps it
makes sense to check it in valid_vma(is_register => false) as well.
This needs the new dup_mmap()->uprobe_dup_mmap() hook. We can't use
uprobe_reset_state() or put MMF_HAS_UPROBES into MMF_INIT_MASK, we
need oldmm->mmap_sem to avoid the race with uprobe_register() or
mmap() from another thread.
Currently we never clear this bit, it can be false-positive after
uprobe_unregister() or uprobe_munmap() or if dup_mmap() hits the
probed VM_DONTCOPY vma. But this is fine correctness-wise and has
no effect unless the task hits the non-uprobe breakpoint.

fatal_signal_pending()
Once install_breakpoint() fails uprobe_mmap() "ignores" all other
uprobes and returns the error.
It was never really needed to to stop after the first error, and
in fact it was always wrong at least in -ENOTSUPP case.
Change uprobe_mmap() to ignore the errors and always return 0.
This is not what we want in the long term, but until we teach
the callers to handle the failure it would be better to remove
the pointless complications. And this doesn't look too bad, the
only "reasonable" error is ENOMEM but in this case the caller
should be oom-killed in the likely case or the system has more
serious problems.
However it makes sense to stop if fatal_signal_pending() == T.
In particular this helps if the task was oom-killed.

1. Kill dup_mmap()->uprobe_mmap(), it was only needed to calculate
new_mm->uprobes_state.count removed by the previous patch.
If the forking process has a pending uprobe (int3) in vma, it will
be copied by copy_page_range(), note that it checks vma->anon_vma
so "Don't copy ptes" is not possible after install_breakpoint()
which does anon_vma_prepare().
2. Remove is_swbp_at_addr() and "int count" in uprobe_mmap(). Again,
this was needed for uprobes_state.count.
As a side effect this fixes the bug pointed out by Srikar,
this code lacked the necessary put_uprobe().
3. uprobe_munmap() becomes a nop after the previous patch. Remove the
meaningless code but do not remove the helper, we will need it.

uprobes_state->count is only needed to avoid the slow path in
uprobe_pre_sstep_notifier(). It is also checked in uprobe_munmap()
but ironically its only goal to decrement this counter. However,
it is very broken. Just some examples:
- uprobe_mmap() can race with uprobe_unregister() and wrongly
increment the counter if it hits the non-uprobe "int3". Note
that install_breakpoint() checks ->consumers first and returns
-EEXIST if it is NULL.
"atomic_sub() if error" in uprobe_mmap() looks obviously wrong
too.
- uprobe_munmap() can race with uprobe_register() and wrongly
decrement the counter by the same reason.
- Suppose an appication tries to increase the mmapped area via
sys_mremap(). vma_adjust() does uprobe_munmap(whole_vma) first,
this can nullify the counter temporarily and race with another
thread which can hit the bp, the application will be killed by
SIGTRAP.
- Suppose an application mmaps 2 consecutive areas in the same file
and one (or both) of these areas has uprobes. In the likely case
mmap_region()->vma_merge() suceeds. Like above, this leads to
uprobe_munmap/uprobe_mmap from vma_merge()->vma_adjust() but then
mmap_region() does another uprobe_mmap(resulting_vma) and doubles
the counter.
This patch only removes this counter and fixes the compile errors,
then we will try to cleanup the changed code and add something else
instead.

When remounting cgroupfs with some subsystems added to it and some
removed, cgroup will remove all the files in root directory and then
re-popluate it.
What I'm doing here is, only remove files which belong to subsystems that
are to be unbinded, and only create files for newly-added subsystems.
The purpose is to have all other files untouched.
This is a preparation for cgroup xattr support.
v7:
- checkpatch warnings fixed
v6:
- no changes
v5:
- no changes
v4:
- refactored cgroup_clear_directory() to not use cgroup_rm_file()
- instead of going thru the list of files, get the file list using the
subsystems
- use 'subsys_mask' instead of {added,removed}_bits and made
cgroup_populate_dir() to match the parameters with cgroup_clear_directory()
v3:
- refresh patches after recent refactoring

The function graph has a test to check if the frame pointer is
corrupted, which can happen with various options of gcc with mcount.
But this is not an issue with -mfentry as -mfentry does not need nor use
frame pointers for function graph tracing.

Thanks to Andi Kleen, gcc 4.6.0 now supports -mfentry for x86
(and hopefully soon for other archs). What this does is to have
the function profiler start at the beginning of the function
instead of after the stack is set up. As plain -pg (mcount) is
called after the stack is set up, and in some cases can have issues
with the function graph tracer. It also requires frame pointers to
be enabled.
The -mfentry now calls __fentry__ at the beginning of the function.
This allows for compiling without frame pointers and even has the
ability to access parameters if needed.
If the architecture and the compiler both support -mfentry then
use that instead.

We still patch SMP instructions to UP variants if we boot with a
single CPU, but not at any other time. In particular, not if we
unplug CPUs to return to a single cpu.
Paul McKenney points out:
mean offline overhead is 6251/48=130.2 milliseconds.
If I remove the alternatives_smp_switch() from the offline
path [...] the mean offline overhead is 550/42=13.1 milliseconds
Basically, we're never going to get those 120ms back, and the
code is pretty messy.
We get rid of:
1) The "smp-alt-once" boot option. It's actually "smp-alt-boot", the
documentation is wrong. It's now the default.
2) The skip_smp_alternatives flag used by suspend.
3) arch_disable_nonboot_cpus_begin() and arch_disable_nonboot_cpus_end()
which were only used to set this one flag.

cancel_delayed_work() can't be called from IRQ handlers due to its use
of del_timer_sync() and can't cancel work items which are already
transferred from timer to worklist.
Also, unlike other flush and cancel functions, a canceled delayed_work
would still point to the last associated cpu_workqueue. If the
workqueue is destroyed afterwards and the work item is re-used on a
different workqueue, the queueing code can oops trying to dereference
already freed cpu_workqueue.
This patch reimplements cancel_delayed_work() using
try_to_grab_pending() and set_work_cpu_and_clear_pending(). This
allows the function to be called from IRQ handlers and makes its
behavior consistent with other flush / cancel functions.

Up to now, for delayed_works, try_to_grab_pending() couldn't be used
from IRQ handlers because IRQs may happen while
delayed_work_timer_fn() is in progress leading to indefinite -EAGAIN.
This patch makes delayed_work use the new TIMER_IRQSAFE flag for
delayed_work->timer. This makes try_to_grab_pending() and thus
mod_delayed_work_on() safe to call from IRQ handlers.

Timer internals are protected with irq-safe locks but timer execution
isn't, so a timer being dequeued for execution and its execution
aren't atomic against IRQs. This makes it impossible to wait for its
completion from IRQ handlers and difficult to shoot down a timer from
IRQ handlers.
This issue caused some issues for delayed_work interface. Because
there's no way to reliably shoot down delayed_work->timer from IRQ
handlers, __cancel_delayed_work() can't share the logic to steal the
target delayed_work with cancel_delayed_work_sync(), and can only
steal delayed_works which are on queued on timer. Similarly, the
pending mod_delayed_work() can't be used from IRQ handlers.
This patch adds a new timer flag TIMER_IRQSAFE, which makes the timer
to be executed without enabling IRQ after dequeueing such that its
dequeueing and execution are atomic against IRQ handlers.
This makes it safe to wait for the timer's completion from IRQ
handlers, for example, using del_timer_sync(). It can never be
executing on the local CPU and if executing on other CPUs it won't be
interrupted until done.
This will enable simplifying delayed_work cancel/mod interface.

Over time, timer initializers became messy with unnecessarily
duplicated code which are inconsistently spread across timer.h and
timer.c.
This patch cleans up timer initializers.
* timer.c::__init_timer() is renamed to do_init_timer().
* __TIMER_INITIALIZER() added. It takes @flags and all initializers
are wrappers around it.
* init_timer[_on_stack]_key() now take @flags.
* __init_timer[_on_stack]() added. They take @flags and all init
macros are wrappers around them.
* __setup_timer[_on_stack]() added. It uses __init_timer() and takes
@flags. All setup macros are wrappers around the two.
Note that this patch doesn't add missing init/setup combinations -
e.g. init_timer_deferrable_on_stack(). Adding missing ones is
trivial.

To prepare for addition of another flag, generalize timer->base flags
handling.
* Rename from TBASE_*_FLAG to TIMER_* and make them LU constants.
* Define and use TIMER_FLAG_MASK for flags masking so that multiple
flags can be handled correctly.
* Don't dereference timer->base directly even if
!tbase_get_deferrable(). All two such places are already passed in
@base, so use it instead.
* Make sure tvec_base's alignment is large enough for timer->base
flags using BUILD_BUG_ON().

from rb tree. Actually there are more problems but this is how
William noticed this bug.
Perhaps we could do do_munmap() + return in this case, but in
fact it is simply wrong to abort if uprobe_mmap() fails. Until
at least we move the !UPROBE_COPY_INSN code from
install_breakpoint() to uprobe_register().
For example, uprobe_mmap()->install_breakpoint() can fail if the
probed insn is not supported (remember, uprobe_register()
succeeds if nobody mmaps inode/offset), mmap() should not fail
in this case.
dup_mmap()->uprobe_mmap() is wrong too by the same reason,
fork() can race with uprobe_register() and fail for no reason if
it wins the race and does install_breakpoint() first.
And, if nothing else, both mmap_region() and dup_mmap() return
success if uprobe_mmap() fails. Change them to ignore the error
code from uprobe_mmap().

Pull ftrace updates from Steve Rostedt:
" This patch series extends ftrace function tracing utility to be
more dynamic for its users. It allows for data passing to the callback
functions, as well as reading regs as if a breakpoint were to trigger
at function entry.
The main goal of this patch series was to allow kprobes to use ftrace
as an optimized probe point when a probe is placed on an ftrace nop.
With lots of help from Masami Hiramatsu, and going through lots of
iterations, we finally came up with a good solution. "

system_nrt[_freezable]_wq are now spurious. Mark them deprecated and
convert all users to system[_freezable]_wq.
If you're cc'd and wondering what's going on: Now all workqueues are
non-reentrant, so there's no reason to use system_nrt[_freezable]_wq.
Please use system[_freezable]_wq instead.
This patch doesn't make any functional difference.

Now that all workqueues are non-reentrant, system[_freezable]_wq() are
equivalent to system_nrt[_freezable]_wq(). Replace the latter with
wrappers around system[_freezable]_wq(). The wrapping goes through
inline functions so that __deprecated can be added easily.

Now that all workqueues are non-reentrant, flush[_delayed]_work_sync()
are equivalent to flush[_delayed]_work(). Drop the separate
implementation and make them thin wrappers around
flush[_delayed]_work().
* start_flush_work() no longer takes @wait_executing as the only left
user - flush_work() - always sets it to %true.
* __cancel_work_timer() uses flush_work() instead of wait_on_work().

By default, each per-cpu part of a bound workqueue operates separately
and a work item may be executing concurrently on different CPUs. The
behavior avoids some cross-cpu traffic but leads to subtle weirdities
and not-so-subtle contortions in the API.
* There's no sane usefulness in allowing a single work item to be
executed concurrently on multiple CPUs. People just get the
behavior unintentionally and get surprised after learning about it.
Most either explicitly synchronize or use non-reentrant/ordered
workqueue but this is error-prone.
* flush_work() can't wait for multiple instances of the same work item
on different CPUs. If a work item is executing on cpu0 and then
queued on cpu1, flush_work() can only wait for the one on cpu1.
Unfortunately, work items can easily cross CPU boundaries
unintentionally when the queueing thread gets migrated. This means
that if multiple queuers compete, flush_work() can't even guarantee
that the instance queued right before it is finished before
returning.
* flush_work_sync() was added to work around some of the deficiencies
of flush_work(). In addition to the usual flushing, it ensures that
all currently executing instances are finished before returning.
This operation is expensive as it has to walk all CPUs and at the
same time fails to address competing queuer case.
Incorrectly using flush_work() when flush_work_sync() is necessary
is an easy error to make and can lead to bugs which are difficult to
reproduce.
* Similar problems exist for flush_delayed_work[_sync]().
Other than the cross-cpu access concern, there's no benefit in
allowing parallel execution and it's plain silly to have this level of
contortion for workqueue which is widely used from core code to
extremely obscure drivers.
This patch makes all workqueues non-reentrant. If a work item is
executing on a different CPU when queueing is requested, it is always
queued to that CPU. This guarantees that any given work item can be
executing on one CPU at maximum and if a work item is queued and
executing, both are on the same CPU.
The only behavior change which may affect workqueue users negatively
is that non-reentrancy overrides the affinity specified by
queue_work_on(). On a reentrant workqueue, the affinity specified by
queue_work_on() is always followed. Now, if the work item is
executing on one of the CPUs, the work item will be queued there
regardless of the requested affinity. I've reviewed all workqueue
users which request explicit affinity, and, fortunately, none seems to
be crazy enough to exploit parallel execution of the same work item.
This adds an additional busy_hash lookup if the work item was
previously queued on a different CPU. This shouldn't be noticeable
under any sane workload. Work item queueing isn't a very
high-frequency operation and they don't jump across CPUs all the time.
In a micro benchmark to exaggerate this difference - measuring the
time it takes for two work items to repeatedly jump between two CPUs a
number (10M) of times with busy_hash table densely populated, the
difference was around 3%.
While the overhead is measureable, it is only visible in pathological
cases and the difference isn't huge. This change brings much needed
sanity to workqueue and makes its behavior consistent with timer. I
think this is the right tradeoff to make.
This enables significant simplification of workqueue API.
Simplification patches will follow.

The archs that implement virtual cputime accounting all
flush the cputime of a task when it gets descheduled
and sometimes set up some ground initialization for the
next task to account its cputime.
These archs all put their own hooks in their context
switch callbacks and handle the off-case themselves.
Consolidate this by creating a new account_switch_vtime()
callback called in generic code right after a context switch
and that these archs must implement to flush the prev task
cputime and initialize the next task cputime related state.

collected up patches that have been posted to the linux-alpha mailing
list over the last couple of months, and are forwarding them to you in
the hope that you are prepared to accept them via me.
The patches by Al Viro and myself I have been running against kernels
for two months now so have had quite a bit of testing. All except one
patch were intended for the 3.5 kernel but because of Matt's
unavailability never got forwarded to you."
* emailed patches from Michael Cree <mcree@orcon.net.nz>: (9 commits)
alpha: Fix fall-out from disintegrating asm/system.h
Redefine ATOMIC_INIT and ATOMIC64_INIT to drop the casts
alpha: fix fpu.h usage in userspace
alpha/mm/fault.c: Port OOM changes to do_page_fault
alpha: take kernel_execve() out of entry.S
alpha: take a bunch of syscalls into osf_sys.c
alpha: Use new generic strncpy_from_user() and strnlen_user()
alpha: Wire up cross memory attach syscalls
alpha: Don't export SOCK_NONBLOCK to user space.

New helper: current_thread_info(). Allows to do a bunch of odd syscalls
in C. While we are at it, there had never been a reason to do
osf_getpriority() in assembler. We also get "namespace"-aware (read:
consistent with getuid(2), etc.) behaviour from getx?id() syscalls now.
