1b37d68f4c ANDROID: Fix massive cpufreq_times memory leaks
Every time _cpu_up() is called for a CPU, idle_thread_get() is called
which then re-initializes a CPU's idle thread that was already
previously created and cached in a global variable in
smpboot.c. idle_thread_get() calls init_idle() which then calls
__sched_fork(). __sched_fork() is where cpufreq_task_times_init() is,
and cpufreq_task_times_init() allocates memory for the task struct's
time_in_state array.

Since idle_thread_get() reuses a task struct instance that was already
previously created, this means that every time it calls init_idle(),
cpufreq_task_times_init() allocates this array again and overwrites
the existing allocation that the idle thread already had.

This causes memory to be leaked every time a CPU is onlined. In order
to fix this, move allocation of time_in_state into _do_fork to avoid
allocating it at all for idle threads. The cpufreq times interface is
intended to be used for tracking userspace tasks, so we can safely
remove it from the kernel's idle threads without killing any
functionality.

But that's not all!

Task structs can be freed outside of release_task(), which creates
another memory leak because a task struct can be freed without having
its cpufreq times allocation freed. To fix this, free the cpufreq
times allocation at the same time that task struct allocations are
freed, in free_task().

Since free_task() can also be called in error paths of copy_process()
after dup_task_struct(), set time_in_state to NULL immediately after
calling dup_task_struct() to avoid possible double free.

003e476716 kaiser: stack map PAGE_SIZE at THREAD_SIZE-PAGE_SIZE
Kaiser only needs to map one page of the stack; and
kernel/fork.c did not build on powerpc (no __PAGE_KERNEL).
It's all cleaner if linux/kaiser.h provides kaiser_map_thread_stack()
and kaiser_unmap_thread_stack() wrappers around asm/kaiser.h's
kaiser_add_mapping() and kaiser_remove_mapping().  And use
linux/kaiser.h in init/main.c to avoid the #ifdefs there.

After several recent works [1,2,3] KASLR on x86_64 was basically
considered dead by many researchers. We have been working on an
efficient but effective fix for this problem and found that not mapping
the kernel space when running in user mode is the solution to this
problem [4] (the corresponding paper [5] will be presented at ESSoS17).

With this RFC patch we allow anybody to configure their kernel with the
flag CONFIG_KAISER to add our defense mechanism.

If there are any questions we would love to answer them.
We also appreciate any comments!

Cheers,
Daniel (+ the KAISER team from Graz University of Technology)

9b83f370dc BACKPORT: kernel: add kcov code coverage
kcov provides code coverage collection for coverage-guided fuzzing
(randomized testing).  Coverage-guided fuzzing is a testing technique
that uses coverage feedback to determine new interesting inputs to a
system.  A notable user-space example is AFL
(http://lcamtuf.coredump.cx/afl/).  However, this technique is not
widely used for kernel testing due to missing compiler and kernel
support.

kcov does not aim to collect as much coverage as possible.  It aims to
collect more or less stable coverage that is function of syscall inputs.
To achieve this goal it does not collect coverage in soft/hard
interrupts and instrumentation of some inherently non-deterministic or
non-interesting parts of kernel is disbled (e.g.  scheduler, locking).

Currently there is a single coverage collection mode (tracing), but the
API anticipates additional collection modes.  Initially I also
implemented a second mode which exposes coverage in a fixed-size hash
table of counters (what Quentin used in his original patch).  I've
dropped the second mode for simplicity.

This patch adds the necessary support on kernel side.  The complimentary
compiler support was added in gcc revision 231296.

We've used this support to build syzkaller system call fuzzer, which has
found 90 kernel bugs in just 2 months:

  https://github.com/google/syzkaller/wiki/Found-Bugs

We've also found 30+ bugs in our internal systems with syzkaller.
Another (yet unexplored) direction where kcov coverage would greatly
help is more traditional "blob mutation".  For example, mounting a
random blob as a filesystem, or receiving a random blob over wire.

Why not gcov.  Typical fuzzing loop looks as follows: (1) reset
coverage, (2) execute a bit of code, (3) collect coverage, repeat.  A
typical coverage can be just a dozen of basic blocks (e.g.  an invalid
input).  In such context gcov becomes prohibitively expensive as
reset/collect coverage steps depend on total number of basic
blocks/edges in program (in case of kernel it is about 2M).  Cost of
kcov depends only on number of executed basic blocks/edges.  On top of
that, kernel requires per-thread coverage because there are always
background threads and unrelated processes that also produce coverage.
With inlined gcov instrumentation per-thread coverage is not possible.

kcov exposes kernel PCs and control flow to user-space which is
insecure.  But debugfs should not be mapped as user accessible.

Based on a patch by Quentin Casasnovas.

047200481e BACKPORT: partial: mm, oom_reaper: do not mmput synchronously from the oom reaper context
(cherry picked from commit ec8d7c14ea14922fe21945b458a75e39f11dd832)

Tetsuo has properly noted that mmput slow path might get blocked waiting
for another party (e.g.  exit_aio waits for an IO).  If that happens the
oom_reaper would be put out of the way and will not be able to process
next oom victim.  We should strive for making this context as reliable
and independent on other subsystems as much as possible.

Introduce mmput_async which will perform the slow path from an async
(WQ) context.  This will delay the operation but that shouldn't be a
problem because the oom_reaper has reclaimed the victim's address space
for most cases as much as possible and the remaining context shouldn't
bind too much memory anymore.  The only exception is when mmap_sem
trylock has failed which shouldn't happen too often.

The issue is only theoretical but not impossible.

50d3f7d55a UPSTREAM: Clarify naming of thread info/stack allocators
We've had the thread info allocated together with the thread stack for
most architectures for a long time (since the thread_info was split off
from the task struct), but that is about to change.

But the patches that move the thread info to be off-stack (and a part of
the task struct instead) made it clear how confused the allocator and
freeing functions are.

Because the common case was that we share an allocation with the thread
stack and the thread_info, the two pointers were identical.  That
identity then meant that we would have things like

	ti = alloc_thread_info_node(tsk, node);
	...
	tsk->stack = ti;

which certainly _worked_ (since stack and thread_info have the same
value), but is rather confusing: why are we assigning a thread_info to
the stack? And if we move the thread_info away, the "confusing" code
just gets to be entirely bogus.

So remove all this confusion, and make it clear that we are doing the
stack allocation by renaming and clarifying the function names to be
about the stack.  The fact that the thread_info then shares the
allocation is an implementation detail, and not really about the
allocation itself.

This is a pure renaming and type fix: we pass in the same pointer, it's
just that we clarify what the pointer means.

The ia64 code that actually only has one single allocation (for all of
task_struct, thread_info and kernel thread stack) now looks a bit odd,
but since "tsk->stack" is actually not even used there, that oddity
doesn't matter.  It would be a separate thing to clean that up, I
intentionally left the ia64 changes as a pure brute-force renaming and
type change.

2ff1edbbb2 stackprotector: Increase the per-task stack canary's random range from 32 bits to 64 bits on 64-bit platforms
commit 5ea30e4e58040cfd6434c2f33dc3ea76e2c15b05 upstream.

The stack canary is an 'unsigned long' and should be fully initialized to
random data rather than only 32 bits of random data.

6a70a5833e pid_ns: Fix race between setns'ed fork() and zap_pid_ns_processes()
commit 3fd37226216620c1a468afa999739d5016fbc349 upstream.

Imagine we have a pid namespace and a task from its parent's pid_ns,
which made setns() to the pid namespace. The task is doing fork(),
while the pid namespace's child reaper is dying. We have the race
between them:

Task from parent pid_ns             Child reaper
copy_process()                      ..
  alloc_pid()                       ..
  ..                                zap_pid_ns_processes()
  ..                                  disable_pid_allocation()
  ..                                  read_lock(&tasklist_lock)
  ..                                  iterate over pids in pid_ns
  ..                                    kill tasks linked to pids
  ..                                  read_unlock(&tasklist_lock)
  write_lock_irq(&tasklist_lock);   ..
  attach_pid(p, PIDTYPE_PID);       ..
  ..                                ..

So, just created task p won't receive SIGKILL signal,
and the pid namespace will be in contradictory state.
Only manual kill will help there, but does the userspace
care about this? I suppose, the most users just inject
a task into a pid namespace and wait a SIGCHLD from it.

The patch fixes the problem. It simply checks for
(pid_ns->nr_hashed & PIDNS_HASH_ADDING) in copy_process().
We do it under the tasklist_lock, and can't skip
PIDNS_HASH_ADDING as noted by Oleg:

"zap_pid_ns_processes() does disable_pid_allocation()
and then takes tasklist_lock to kill the whole namespace.
Given that copy_process() checks PIDNS_HASH_ADDING
under write_lock(tasklist) they can't race;
if copy_process() takes this lock first, the new child will
be killed, otherwise copy_process() can't miss
the change in ->nr_hashed."

If allocation is disabled, we just return -ENOMEM
like it's made for such cases in alloc_pid().

v2: Do not move disable_pid_allocation(), do not
introduce a new variable in copy_process() and simplify
the patch as suggested by Oleg Nesterov.
Account the problem with double irq enabling
found by Eric W. Biederman.

6052eb8712 kernek/fork.c: allocate idle task for a CPU always on its local node
commit 725fc629ff2545b061407305ae51016c9f928fce upstream.

Linux preallocates the task structs of the idle tasks for all possible
CPUs.  This currently means they all end up on node 0.  This also
implies that the cache line of MWAIT, which is around the flags field in
the task struct, are all located in node 0.

We see a noticeable performance improvement on Knights Landing CPUs when
the cache lines used for MWAIT are located in the local nodes of the
CPUs using them.  I would expect this to give a (likely slight)
improvement on other systems too.

The patch implements placing the idle task in the node of its CPUs, by
passing the right target node to copy_process()

03eed7afbc mm: Add a user_ns owner to mm_struct and fix ptrace permission checks
commit bfedb589252c01fa505ac9f6f2a3d5d68d707ef4 upstream.

During exec dumpable is cleared if the file that is being executed is
not readable by the user executing the file.  A bug in
ptrace_may_access allows reading the file if the executable happens to
enter into a subordinate user namespace (aka clone(CLONE_NEWUSER),
unshare(CLONE_NEWUSER), or setns(fd, CLONE_NEWUSER).

This problem is fixed with only necessary userspace breakage by adding
a user namespace owner to mm_struct, captured at the time of exec, so
it is clear in which user namespace CAP_SYS_PTRACE must be present in
to be able to safely give read permission to the executable.

The function ptrace_may_access is modified to verify that the ptracer
has CAP_SYS_ADMIN in task->mm->user_ns instead of task->cred->user_ns.
This ensures that if the task changes it's cred into a subordinate
user namespace it does not become ptraceable.

The function ptrace_attach is modified to only set PT_PTRACE_CAP when
CAP_SYS_PTRACE is held over task->mm->user_ns.  The intent of
PT_PTRACE_CAP is to be a flag to note that whatever permission changes
the task might go through the tracer has sufficient permissions for
it not to be an issue.  task->cred->user_ns is always the same
as or descendent of mm->user_ns.  Which guarantees that having
CAP_SYS_PTRACE over mm->user_ns is the worst case for the tasks
credentials.

To prevent regressions mm->dumpable and mm->user_ns are not considered
when a task has no mm.  As simply failing ptrace_may_attach causes
regressions in privileged applications attempting to read things
such as /proc/<pid>/stat

82b7839a40 kernel/fork: fix CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID regression in nscd
commit 735f2770a770156100f534646158cb58cb8b2939 upstream.

Commit fec1d01152 ("[PATCH] Disable CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID for abnormal
exit") has caused a subtle regression in nscd which uses
CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID to clear the nscd_certainly_running flag in the
shared databases, so that the clients are notified when nscd is
restarted.  Now, when nscd uses a non-persistent database, clients that
have it mapped keep thinking the database is being updated by nscd, when
in fact nscd has created a new (anonymous) one (for non-persistent
databases it uses an unlinked file as backend).

The original proposal for the CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID change claimed
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2006/10/25/233):

: The NPTL library uses the CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID flag on clone() syscalls
: on behalf of pthread_create() library calls.  This feature is used to
: request that the kernel clear the thread-id in user space (at an address
: provided in the syscall) when the thread disassociates itself from the
: address space, which is done in mm_release().
:
: Unfortunately, when a multi-threaded process incurs a core dump (such as
: from a SIGSEGV), the core-dumping thread sends SIGKILL signals to all of
: the other threads, which then proceed to clear their user-space tids
: before synchronizing in exit_mm() with the start of core dumping.  This
: misrepresents the state of process's address space at the time of the
: SIGSEGV and makes it more difficult for someone to debug NPTL and glibc
: problems (misleading him/her to conclude that the threads had gone away
: before the fault).
:
: The fix below is to simply avoid the CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID action if a
: core dump has been initiated.

The resulting patch from Roland (https://lkml.org/lkml/2006/10/26/269)
seems to have a larger scope than the original patch asked for.  It
seems that limitting the scope of the check to core dumping should work
for SIGSEGV issue describe above.

f750847daa mm: introduce get_task_exe_file
commit cd81a9170e69e018bbaba547c1fd85a585f5697a upstream.

For more convenient access if one has a pointer to the task.

As a minor nit take advantage of the fact that only task lock + rcu are
needed to safely grab ->exe_file. This saves mm refcount dance.

Use the helper in proc_exe_link.

093e5840ae sched/core: Reset task's lockless wake-queues on fork()
In the following commit:

  7675104990 ("sched: Implement lockless wake-queues")

we gained lockless wake-queues.

The -RT kernel managed to lockup itself with those. There could be multiple
attempts for task X to enqueue it for a wakeup _even_ if task X is already
running.

The reason is that task X could be runnable but not yet on CPU. The the
task performing the wakeup did not leave the CPU it could performe
multiple wakeups.

With the proper timming task X could be running and enqueued for a
wakeup. If this happens while X is performing a fork() then its its
child will have a !NULL `wake_q` member copied.

This is not a problem as long as the child task does not participate in
lockless wakeups :)

c9e75f0492 cgroup: pids: fix race between cgroup_post_fork() and cgroup_migrate()
If the new child migrates to another cgroup before cgroup_post_fork() calls
subsys->fork(), then both pids_can_attach() and pids_fork() will do the same
pids_uncharge(old_pids) + pids_charge(pids) sequence twice.

Change copy_process() to call threadgroup_change_begin/threadgroup_change_end
unconditionally. percpu_down_read() is cheap and this allows other cleanups,
see the next changes.

Also, this way we can unify cgroup_threadgroup_rwsem and dup_mmap_sem.

de60f5f10c mm: introduce VM_LOCKONFAULT
The cost of faulting in all memory to be locked can be very high when
working with large mappings.  If only portions of the mapping will be used
this can incur a high penalty for locking.

For the example of a large file, this is the usage pattern for a large
statical language model (probably applies to other statical or graphical
models as well).  For the security example, any application transacting in
data that cannot be swapped out (credit card data, medical records, etc).

This patch introduces the ability to request that pages are not
pre-faulted, but are placed on the unevictable LRU when they are finally
faulted in.  The VM_LOCKONFAULT flag will be used together with VM_LOCKED
and has no effect when set without VM_LOCKED.  Setting the VM_LOCKONFAULT
flag for a VMA will cause pages faulted into that VMA to be added to the
unevictable LRU when they are faulted or if they are already present, but
will not cause any missing pages to be faulted in.

Exposing this new lock state means that we cannot overload the meaning of
the FOLL_POPULATE flag any longer.  Prior to this patch it was used to
mean that the VMA for a fault was locked.  This means we need the new
FOLL_MLOCK flag to communicate the locked state of a VMA.  FOLL_POPULATE
will now only control if the VMA should be populated and in the case of
VM_LOCKONFAULT, it will not be set.

69234acee5 Merge branch 'for-4.4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup
Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo:
 "The cgroup core saw several significant updates this cycle:

   - percpu_rwsem for threadgroup locking is reinstated.  This was
     temporarily dropped due to down_write latency issues.  Oleg's
     rework of percpu_rwsem which is scheduled to be merged in this
     merge window resolves the issue.

   - On the v2 hierarchy, when controllers are enabled and disabled, all
     operations are atomic and can fail and revert cleanly.  This allows
     ->can_attach() failure which is necessary for cpu RT slices.

   - Tasks now stay associated with the original cgroups after exit
     until released.  This allows tracking resources held by zombies
     (e.g.  pids) and makes it easy to find out where zombies came from
     on the v2 hierarchy.  The pids controller was broken before these
     changes as zombies escaped the limits; unfortunately, updating this
     behavior required too many invasive changes and I don't think it's
     a good idea to backport them, so the pids controller on 4.3, the
     first version which included the pids controller, will stay broken
     at least until I'm sure about the cgroup core changes.

2e91fa7f6d cgroup: keep zombies associated with their original cgroups
cgroup_exit() is called when a task exits and disassociates the
exiting task from its cgroups and half-attach it to the root cgroup.
This is unnecessary and undesirable.

No controller actually needs an exiting task to be disassociated with
non-root cgroups.  Both cpu and perf_event controllers update the
association to the root cgroup from their exit callbacks just to keep
consistent with the cgroup core behavior.

Also, this disassociation makes it difficult to track resources held
by zombies or determine where the zombies came from.  Currently, pids
controller is completely broken as it uncharges on exit and zombies
always escape the resource restriction.  With cgroup association being
reset on exit, fixing it is pretty painful.

There's no reason to reset cgroup membership on exit.  The zombie can
be removed from its css_set so that it doesn't show up on
"cgroup.procs" and thus can't be migrated or interfere with cgroup
removal.  It can still pin and point to the css_set so that its cgroup
membership is maintained.  This patch makes cgroup core keep zombies
associated with their cgroups at the time of exit.

* Previous patches decoupled populated_cnt tracking from css_set
  lifetime, so a dying task can be simply unlinked from its css_set
  while pinning and pointing to the css_set.  This keeps css_set
  association from task side alive while hiding it from "cgroup.procs"
  and populated_cnt tracking.  The css_set reference is dropped when
  the task_struct is freed.

* ->exit() callback no longer needs the css arguments as the
  associated css never changes once PF_EXITING is set.  Removed.

* cpu and perf_events controllers no longer need ->exit() callbacks.
  There's no reason to explicitly switch away on exit.  The final
  schedule out is enough.  The callbacks are removed.

* On traditional hierarchies, nothing changes.  "/proc/PID/cgroup"
  still reports "/" for all zombies.  On the default hierarchy,
  "/proc/PID/cgroup" keeps reporting the cgroup that the task belonged
  to at the time of exit.  If the cgroup gets removed before the task
  is reaped, " (deleted)" is appended.

v2: Build brekage due to missing dummy cgroup_free() when
    !CONFIG_CGROUP fixed.

existing 'running' integer field are just used as boolean values. To
save space in the structure, we can make both of these fields booleans.

This is a preparatory patch to convert the existing running integer
field to a boolean.

1ed1328792 sched, cgroup: replace signal_struct->group_rwsem with a global percpu_rwsem
Note: This commit was originally committed as d59cfc09c3 but got
      reverted by 0c986253b9 due to the performance regression from
      the percpu_rwsem write down/up operations added to cgroup task
      migration path.  percpu_rwsem changes which alleviate the
      performance issue are pending for v4.4-rc1 merge window.
      Re-apply.

The cgroup side of threadgroup locking uses signal_struct->group_rwsem
to synchronize against threadgroup changes.  This per-process rwsem
adds small overhead to thread creation, exit and exec paths, forces
cgroup code paths to do lock-verify-unlock-retry dance in a couple
places and makes it impossible to atomically perform operations across
multiple processes.

This patch replaces signal_struct->group_rwsem with a global
percpu_rwsem cgroup_threadgroup_rwsem which is cheaper on the reader
side and contained in cgroups proper.  This patch converts one-to-one.

This does make writer side heavier and lower the granularity; however,
cgroup process migration is a fairly cold path, we do want to optimize
thread operations over it and cgroup migration operations don't take
enough time for the lower granularity to matter.

0c986253b9 Revert "sched, cgroup: replace signal_struct->group_rwsem with a global percpu_rwsem"
This reverts commit d59cfc09c3.

d59cfc09c3 ("sched, cgroup: replace signal_struct->group_rwsem with
a global percpu_rwsem") and b5ba75b5fc ("cgroup: simplify
threadgroup locking") changed how cgroup synchronizes against task
fork and exits so that it uses global percpu_rwsem instead of
per-process rwsem; unfortunately, the write [un]lock paths of
percpu_rwsem always involve synchronize_rcu_expedited() which turned
out to be too expensive.

Improvements for percpu_rwsem are scheduled to be merged in the coming
v4.4-rc1 merge window which alleviates this issue.  For now, revert
the two commits to restore per-process rwsem.  They will be re-applied
for the v4.4-rc1 merge window.

faf00da544 userns,pidns: Force thread group sharing, not signal handler sharing.
The code that places signals in signal queues computes the uids, gids,
and pids at the time the signals are enqueued.  Which means that tasks
that share signal queues must be in the same pid and user namespaces.

Sharing signal handlers is fine, but bizarre.

So make the code in fork and userns_install clearer by only testing
for what is functionally necessary.

Also update the comment in unshare about unsharing a user namespace to
be a little more explicit and make a little more sense.

12c641ab82 unshare: Unsharing a thread does not require unsharing a vm
In the logic in the initial commit of unshare made creating a new
thread group for a process, contingent upon creating a new memory
address space for that process.  That is wrong.  Two separate
processes in different thread groups can share a memory address space
and clone allows creation of such proceses.

This is significant because it was observed that mm_users > 1 does not
mean that a process is multi-threaded, as reading /proc/PID/maps
temporarily increments mm_users, which allows other processes to
(accidentally) interfere with unshare() calls.

Correct the check in check_unshare_flags() to test for
!thread_group_empty() for CLONE_THREAD, CLONE_SIGHAND, and CLONE_VM.
For sighand->count > 1 for CLONE_SIGHAND and CLONE_VM.
For !current_is_single_threaded instead of mm_users > 1 for CLONE_VM.

By using the correct checks in unshare this removes the possibility of
an accidental denial of service attack.

Additionally using the correct checks in unshare ensures that only an
explicit unshare(CLONE_VM) can possibly trigger the slow path of
current_is_single_threaded().  As an explict unshare(CLONE_VM) is
pointless it is not expected there are many applications that make
that call.

While the current code guarantees monotonicity for stime and utime
independently of one another, it does not guarantee that the sum of
both is equal to the total time we started out with.

This confuses things (and peoples) who look at this sum, like top, and
will report >100% usage followed by a matching period of 0%.

Rework the code to provide both individual monotonicity and a coherent
sum.

0c8c0f03e3 x86/fpu, sched: Dynamically allocate 'struct fpu'
The FPU rewrite removed the dynamic allocations of 'struct fpu'.
But, this potentially wastes massive amounts of memory (2k per
task on systems that do not have AVX-512 for instance).

Instead of having a separate slab, this patch just appends the
space that we need to the 'task_struct' which we dynamically
allocate already.  This saves from doing an extra slab
allocation at fork().

The only real downside here is that we have to stick everything
and the end of the task_struct.  But, I think the
BUILD_BUG_ON()s I stuck in there should keep that from being too
fragile.

3033f14ab7 clone: support passing tls argument via C rather than pt_regs magic
clone has some of the quirkiest syscall handling in the kernel, with a
pile of special cases, historical curiosities, and architecture-specific
calling conventions.  In particular, clone with CLONE_SETTLS accepts a
parameter "tls" that the C entry point completely ignores and some
assembly entry points overwrite; instead, the low-level arch-specific
code pulls the tls parameter out of the arch-specific register captured
as part of pt_regs on entry to the kernel.  That's a massive hack, and
it makes the arch-specific code only work when called via the specific
existing syscall entry points; because of this hack, any new clone-like
system call would have to accept an identical tls argument in exactly
the same arch-specific position, rather than providing a unified system
call entry point across architectures.

The first patch allows architectures to handle the tls argument via
normal C parameter passing, if they opt in by selecting
HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS.  The second patch makes 32-bit and 64-bit x86 opt
into this.

These two patches came out of the clone4 series, which isn't ready for
this merge window, but these first two cleanup patches were entirely
uncontroversial and have acks.  I'd like to go ahead and submit these
two so that other architectures can begin building on top of this and
opting into HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS.  However, I'm also happy to wait and
send these through the next merge window (along with v3 of clone4) if
anyone would prefer that.

This patch (of 2):

clone with CLONE_SETTLS accepts an argument to set the thread-local
storage area for the new thread.  sys_clone declares an int argument
tls_val in the appropriate point in the argument list (based on the
various CLONE_BACKWARDS variants), but doesn't actually use or pass along
that argument.  Instead, sys_clone calls do_fork, which calls
copy_process, which calls the arch-specific copy_thread, and copy_thread
pulls the corresponding syscall argument out of the pt_regs captured at
kernel entry (knowing what argument of clone that architecture passes tls
in).

Apart from being awful and inscrutable, that also only works because only
one code path into copy_thread can pass the CLONE_SETTLS flag, and that
code path comes from sys_clone with its architecture-specific
argument-passing order.  This prevents introducing a new version of the
clone system call without propagating the same architecture-specific
position of the tls argument.

However, there's no reason to pull the argument out of pt_regs when
sys_clone could just pass it down via C function call arguments.

Introduce a new CONFIG_HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS for architectures to opt into,
and a new copy_thread_tls that accepts the tls parameter as an additional
unsigned long (syscall-argument-sized) argument.  Change sys_clone's tls
argument to an unsigned long (which does not change the ABI), and pass
that down to copy_thread_tls.

Architectures that don't opt into copy_thread_tls will continue to ignore
the C argument to sys_clone in favor of the pt_regs captured at kernel
entry, and thus will be unable to introduce new versions of the clone
syscall.

d59cfc09c3 sched, cgroup: replace signal_struct->group_rwsem with a global percpu_rwsem
The cgroup side of threadgroup locking uses signal_struct->group_rwsem
to synchronize against threadgroup changes.  This per-process rwsem
adds small overhead to thread creation, exit and exec paths, forces
cgroup code paths to do lock-verify-unlock-retry dance in a couple
places and makes it impossible to atomically perform operations across
multiple processes.

This patch replaces signal_struct->group_rwsem with a global
percpu_rwsem cgroup_threadgroup_rwsem which is cheaper on the reader
side and contained in cgroups proper.  This patch converts one-to-one.

This does make writer side heavier and lower the granularity; however,
cgroup process migration is a fairly cold path, we do want to optimize
thread operations over it and cgroup migration operations don't take
enough time for the lower granularity to matter.

8bcbde5480 sched/preempt, mm/fault: Count pagefault_disable() levels in pagefault_disabled
Until now, pagefault_disable()/pagefault_enabled() used the preempt
count to track whether in an environment with pagefaults disabled (can
be queried via in_atomic()).

This patch introduces a separate counter in task_struct to count the
level of pagefault_disable() calls. We'll keep manipulating the preempt
count to retain compatibility to existing pagefault handlers.

It is now possible to verify whether in a pagefault_disable() envionment
by calling pagefault_disabled(). In contrast to in_atomic() it will not
be influenced by preempt_enable()/preempt_disable().

This patch is based on a patch from Ingo Molnar.

1018016c70 sched, timer: Replace spinlocks with atomics in thread_group_cputimer(), to improve scalability
While running a database workload, we found a scalability issue with itimers.

Much of the problem was caused by the thread_group_cputimer spinlock.
Each time we account for group system/user time, we need to obtain a
thread_group_cputimer's spinlock to update the timers. On larger systems
(such as a 16 socket machine), this caused more than 30% of total time
spent trying to obtain this kernel lock to update these group timer stats.

This patch converts the timers to 64-bit atomic variables and use
atomic add to update them without a lock. With this patch, the percent
of total time spent updating thread group cputimer timers was reduced
from 30% down to less than 1%.

Note: On 32-bit systems using the generic 64-bit atomics, this causes
sample_group_cputimer() to take locks 3 times instead of just 1 time.
However, we tested this patch on a 32-bit system ARM system using the
generic atomics and did not find the overhead to be much of an issue.
An explanation for why this isn't an issue is that 32-bit systems usually
have small numbers of CPUs, and cacheline contention from extra spinlocks
called periodically is not really apparent on smaller systems.
