Userspace processes often have multiple allocators that each do
anonymous mmaps to get memory. When examining memory usage of
individual processes or systems as a whole, it is useful to be
able to break down the various heaps that were allocated by
each layer and examine their size, RSS, and physical memory
usage.
This patch adds a user pointer to the shared union in
vm_area_struct that points to a null terminated string inside
the user process containing a name for the vma. vmas that
point to the same address will be merged, but vmas that
point to equivalent strings at different addresses will
not be merged.
Userspace can set the name for a region of memory by calling
prctl(PR_SET_VMA, PR_SET_VMA_ANON_NAME, start, len, (unsigned long)name);
Setting the name to NULL clears it.
The names of named anonymous vmas are shown in /proc/pid/maps
as [anon:<name>] and in /proc/pid/smaps in a new "Name" field
that is only present for named vmas. If the userspace pointer
is no longer valid all or part of the name will be replaced
with "<fault>".
The idea to store a userspace pointer to reduce the complexity
within mm (at the expense of the complexity of reading
/proc/pid/mem) came from Dave Hansen. This results in no
runtime overhead in the mm subsystem other than comparing
the anon_name pointers when considering vma merging. The pointer
is stored in a union with fieds that are only used on file-backed
mappings, so it does not increase memory usage.

Add a userspace visible knob to tell the VM to keep an extra amount
of memory free, by increasing the gap between each zone's min and
low watermarks.
This is useful for realtime applications that call system
calls and have a bound on the number of allocations that happen
in any short time period. In this application, extra_free_kbytes
would be left at an amount equal to or larger than than the
maximum number of allocations that happen in any burst.
It may also be useful to reduce the memory use of virtual
machines (temporarily?), in a way that does not cause memory
fragmentation like ballooning does.

Revived for use on old kernels where no other solution exists.
The tunable will be removed on kernels that do better at avoiding
direct reclaim.

Avoid waking up every thread sleeping in a sigtimedwait call during
suspend and resume by calling a freezable blocking call. Previous
patches modified the freezer to avoid sending wakeups to threads
that are blocked in freezable blocking calls.
This call was selected to be converted to a freezable call because
it doesn't hold any locks or release any resources when interrupted
that might be needed by another freezing task or a kernel driver
during suspend, and is a common site where idle userspace tasks are
blocked.

Android goes through suspend/resume very often (every few seconds when
on a busy wifi network with the screen off), and a significant portion
of the energy used to go in and out of suspend is spent in the
freezer. If a task has called freezer_do_not_count(), don't bother
waking it up. If it happens to wake up later it will call
freezer_count() and immediately enter the refrigerator.
Combined with patches to convert freezable helpers to use
freezer_do_not_count() and convert common sites where idle userspace
tasks are blocked to use the freezable helpers, this reduces the
time and energy required to suspend and resume.

The only existing caller to debug_check_no_locks_held calls it
with 'current' as the task, and the freezer needs to call
debug_check_no_locks_held but doesn't already have a current
task pointer, so remove the argument. It is already assuming
that the current task is relevant by dumping the current stack
trace as part of the warning.
This was originally part of 6aa9707099c (lockdep: check that
no locks held at freeze time) which was reverted in
dbf520a9d7d4.

Emulate NMIs on systems where they are not available by using timer
interrupts on other cpus. Each cpu will use its softlockup hrtimer
to check that the next cpu is processing hrtimer interrupts by
verifying that a counter is increasing.
This patch is useful on systems where the hardlockup detector is not
available due to a lack of NMIs, for example most ARM SoCs.
Without this patch any cpu stuck with interrupts disabled can
cause a hardware watchdog reset with no debugging information,
but with this patch the kernel can detect the lockup and panic,
which can result in useful debugging info.

Rather than using explicit euid == 0 checks when trying to move
tasks into a cgroup via CFS, move permission checks into each
specific cgroup subsystem. If a subsystem does not specify a
'allow_attach' handler, then we fall back to doing our checks
the old way.
Use the 'allow_attach' handler for the 'cpu' cgroup to allow
non-root processes to add arbitrary processes to a 'cpu' cgroup
if it has the CAP_SYS_NICE capability set.
This version of the patch adds a 'allow_attach' handler instead
of reusing the 'can_attach' handler. If the 'can_attach' handler
is reused, a new cgroup that implements 'can_attach' but not
the permission checks could end up with no permission checks
at all.

At times, it is necessary for boards to provide some additional information
as part of panic logs. Provide information on the board hardware as part
of panic logs.
It is safer to print this information at the very end in case something
bad happens as part of the information retrieval itself.
To use this, set global mach_panic_string to an appropriate string in the

The recent modification in the cpuidle framework consolidated the
timer broadcast code across the different drivers by setting a new
flag in the idle state. It tells the cpuidle core code to enter/exit
the broadcast mode for the cpu when entering a deep idle state. The
broadcast timer enter/exit is no longer handled by the back-end
driver.
This change made the local interrupt to be enabled *before* calling
CLOCK_EVENT_NOTIFY_EXIT.
On a tegra114, a four cores system, when the flag has been introduced
in the driver, the following warning appeared:
WARNING: at kernel/time/tick-broadcast.c:578 tick_broadcast_oneshot_control

I don't have the hardware, so I wasn't able to reproduce the warning
but after looking a while at the code, I deduced the following:
1. the CPU2 enters a deep idle state and sets the broadcast timer
2. the timer expires, the tick_handle_oneshot_broadcast function is
called, setting the tick_broadcast_pending_mask and waking up the
idle cpu CPU2
3. the CPU2 exits idle handles the interrupt and then invokes
tick_broadcast_oneshot_control with CLOCK_EVENT_NOTIFY_EXIT which
runs the following code:
[...]
if (dev->next_event.tv64 == KTIME_MAX)
goto out;
if (cpumask_test_and_clear_cpu(cpu,
tick_broadcast_pending_mask))
goto out;
[...]
So if there is no next event scheduled for CPU2, we fulfil the
first condition and jump out without clearing the
tick_broadcast_pending_mask.
4. CPU2 goes to deep idle again and calls
tick_broadcast_oneshot_control with CLOCK_NOTIFY_EVENT_ENTER but
with the tick_broadcast_pending_mask set for CPU2, triggering the
warning.
The issue only surfaced due to the modifications of the cpuidle
framework, which resulted in interrupts being enabled before the call
to the clockevents code. If the call happens before interrupts have
been enabled, the warning cannot trigger, because there is still the
event pending which caused the broadcast timer expiry.
Move the check for the next event below the check for the pending bit,
so the pending bit gets cleared whether an event is scheduled on the
cpu or not.

trinity fuzzer triggered WARN_ONCE("Can't find any breakpoint
slot") in arch_install_hw_breakpoint() but the problem is not
arch-specific.
The problem is, task_bp_pinned(cpu) checks "cpu == iter->cpu"
but this doesn't account the "all cpus" events with iter->cpu <
0.
This means that, say, register_user_hw_breakpoint(tsk) can
happily create the arbitrary number > HBP_NUM of breakpoints
which can not be activated. toggle_bp_task_slot() is equally
wrong by the same reason and nr_task_bp_pinned[] can have
negative entries.
Simple test:
# perl -e 'sleep 1 while 1' &
# perf record -e mem:0x10,mem:0x10,mem:0x10,mem:0x10,mem:0x10 -p `pidof perl`
Before this patch this triggers the same problem/WARN_ON(),
after the patch it correctly fails with -ENOSPC.

What happened was that the function tracer traced the schedule_user() code
that tells RCU that the system is coming back from userspace, and to
add the CPU back to the RCU monitoring.
Because the function tracer does a preempt_disable/enable_notrace() calls
the preempt_enable_notrace() checks the NEED_RESCHED flag. If it is set,
then preempt_schedule() is called. But this is called before the user_exit()
function can inform the kernel that the CPU is no longer in user mode and
needs to be accounted for by RCU.
The fix is to create a new preempt_schedule_context() that checks if
the kernel is still in user mode and if so to switch it to kernel mode
before calling schedule. It also switches back to user mode coming back
from schedule in need be.
The only user of this currently is the preempt_enable_notrace(), which is
only used by the tracing subsystem.

I have faced a sequence where the Idle Load Balance was sometime not
triggered for a while on my platform, in the following scenario:
CPU 0 and CPU 1 are running tasks and CPU 2 is idle
CPU 1 kicks the Idle Load Balance
CPU 1 selects CPU 2 as the new Idle Load Balancer
CPU 2 sets NOHZ_BALANCE_KICK for CPU 2
CPU 2 sends a reschedule IPI to CPU 2
While CPU 3 wakes up, CPU 0 or CPU 1 migrates a waking up task A on CPU 2
CPU 2 finally wakes up, runs task A and discards the Idle Load Balance
task A quickly goes back to sleep (before a tick occurs on CPU 2)
CPU 2 goes back to idle with NOHZ_BALANCE_KICK set
Whenever CPU 2 will be selected as the ILB, no reschedule IPI will be sent
because NOHZ_BALANCE_KICK is already set and no Idle Load Balance will be
performed.
We must wait for the sched softirq to be raised on CPU 2 thanks to another
part the kernel to come back to clear NOHZ_BALANCE_KICK.
The proposed solution clears NOHZ_BALANCE_KICK in schedule_ipi if
we can't raise the sched_softirq for the Idle Load Balance.
Change since V1:
- move the clear of NOHZ_BALANCE_KICK in got_nohz_idle_kick if the ILB
can't run on this CPU (as suggested by Peter)

Vince's fuzzer once again found holes. This time it spotted a leak in
the locked page accounting.
When an event had redirected output and its close() was the last
reference to the buffer we didn't have a vm context to undo accounting.
Change the code to destroy the buffer on the last munmap() and detach
all redirected events at that time. This provides us the right context
to undo the vm accounting.

Joshua reported: Commit cd7b304dfaf1 (x86, range: fix missing merge
during add range) broke mtrr cleanup on his setup in 3.9.5.
corresponding commit in upstream is fbe06b7bae7c.
The reason is add_range_with_merge could generate blank spot.
We could avoid that by searching new expanded start/end, that
new range should include all connected ranges in range array.
At last add the new expanded start/end to the range array.
Also move up left array so do not add new blank slot in the
range array.
-v2: move left array to avoid enhance add_range()
-v3: include fix from Joshua about memmove declaring when
DYN_DEBUG is used.

Pull VFS fixes from Al Viro:

can_lookup() back then)"
* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs:
snd_pcm_link(): fix a leak...
use can_lookup() instead of direct checks of ->i_op->lookup
move exit_task_namespaces() outside of exit_notify()

exit_notify() does exit_task_namespaces() after
forget_original_parent(). This was needed to ensure that ->nsproxy
can't be cleared prematurely, an exiting child we are going to
reparent can do do_notify_parent() and use the parent's (ours) pid_ns.
However, after 32084504 "pidns: use task_active_pid_ns in
do_notify_parent" ->nsproxy != NULL is no longer needed, we rely
on task_active_pid_ns().
Move exit_task_namespaces() from exit_notify() to do_exit(), after
exit_fs() and before exit_task_work().
This solves the problem reported by Andrey, free_ipc_ns()->shm_destroy()
does fput() which needs task_work_add().
Note: this particular problem can be fixed if we change fput(), and
that change makes sense anyway. But there is another reason to move
the callsite. The original reason for exit_task_namespaces() from
the middle of exit_notify() was subtle and it has already gone away,
now this looks confusing. And this allows us do simplify exit_notify(),
we can avoid unlock/lock(tasklist) and we can use ->exit_state instead
of PF_EXITING in forget_original_parent().

PARISC bootup triggers the warning at kernel/cpu/idle.c:96. That's
caused by the weak arch_cpu_idle() implementation, which is provided
to avoid that architectures implement idle_poll over and over.
The switchover to polling mode happens in the first call of the weak
arch_cpu_idle() implementation, but that code fails to reenable
interrupts and therefor triggers the warning.
Fix this by enabling interrupts in the weak arch_cpu_idle() code.
