coredump: ensure that SIGKILL always kills the dumping thread
prepare_signal() blesses SIGKILL sent to the dumping process but this
signal can be "lost" anyway. The problems is, complete_signal() sees
SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT and skips the "kill them all" logic. And even if the
dumping process is single-threaded (so the target is always "correct"),
the group-wide SIGKILL is not recorded in task->pending and thus
__fatal_signal_pending() won't be true. A multi-threaded case has even
more problems.
And even ignoring all technical details, SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT doesn't look
right to me. This coredumping process is not exiting yet, it can do a lot
of work dumping the core.
With this patch the dumping process doesn't have SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT, we set
signal->group_exit_task instead. This makes signal_group_exit() true and
thus this should equally close the races with exit/exec/stop but allows to
kill the dumping thread reliably.
Notes:
- It is not clear what should we do with ->group_exit_code
if the dumper was killed, see the next change.
- we need more (hopefully straightforward) changes to ensure
that SIGKILL actually interrupts the coredump. Basically we
need to check __fatal_signal_pending() in dump_write() and
dump_seek().

coredump: only SIGKILL should interrupt the coredumping task
There are 2 well known and ancient problems with coredump/signals, and a
lot of related bug reports:
- do_coredump() clears TIF_SIGPENDING but of course this can't help
if, say, SIGCHLD comes after that.
In this case the coredump can fail unexpectedly. See for example
wait_for_dump_helper()->signal_pending() check but there are other
reasons.
- At the same time, dumping a huge core on the slow media can take a
lot of time/resources and there is no way to kill the coredumping
task reliably. In particular this is not oom_kill-friendly.
This patch tries to fix the 1st problem, and makes the preparation for the
next changes.
We add the new SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP flag set by zap_threads() to indicate
that this process dumps the core. prepare_signal() checks this flag and
nacks any signal except SIGKILL.
Note that this check tries to be conservative, in the long term we should
probably treat the SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT case equally but this needs more
discussion. See marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=120508897917439
Notes:
- recalc_sigpending() doesn't check SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP.
The patch assumes that dump_write/etc paths should never
call it, but we can change it as well.
- There is another source of TIF_SIGPENDING, freezer. This
will be addressed separately.

ptrace: add ability to retrieve signals without removing from a queue (v4)
This patch adds a new ptrace request PTRACE_PEEKSIGINFO.
This request is used to retrieve information about pending signals
starting with the specified sequence number. Siginfo_t structures are
copied from the child into the buffer starting at "data".
The argument "addr" is a pointer to struct ptrace_peeksiginfo_args.
struct ptrace_peeksiginfo_args {
u64 off; /* from which siginfo to start */
u32 flags;
s32 nr; /* how may siginfos to take */
};
"nr" has type "s32", because ptrace() returns "long", which has 32 bits on
i386 and a negative values is used for errors.
Currently here is only one flag PTRACE_PEEKSIGINFO_SHARED for dumping
signals from process-wide queue. If this flag is not set, signals are
read from a per-thread queue.
The request PTRACE_PEEKSIGINFO returns a number of dumped signals. If a
signal with the specified sequence number doesn't exist, ptrace returns
zero. The request returns an error, if no signal has been dumped.
Errors:
EINVAL - one or more specified flags are not supported or nr is negative
EFAULT - buf or addr is outside your accessible address space.
A result siginfo contains a kernel part of si_code which usually striped,
but it's required for queuing the same siginfo back during restore of
pending signals.
This functionality is required for checkpointing pending signals. Pedro
Alves suggested using it in "gdb" to peek at pending signals. gdb already
uses PTRACE_GETSIGINFO to get the siginfo for the signal which was already
dequeued. This functionality allows gdb to look at the pending signals
which were not reported yet.
The prototype of this code was developed by Oleg Nesterov.

nilfs2: fix issue with flush kernel thread after remount in RO mode because of driver's internal error or metadata corruption
The NILFS2 driver remounts itself in RO mode in the case of discovering
metadata corruption (for example, discovering a broken bmap). But
usually, this takes place when there have been file system operations
before remounting in RO mode.
Thereby, NILFS2 driver can be in RO mode with presence of dirty pages in
modified inodes' address spaces. It results in flush kernel thread's
infinite trying to flush dirty pages in RO mode. As a result, it is
possible to see such side effects as: (1) flush kernel thread occupies
50% - 99% of CPU time; (2) system can't be shutdowned without manual
power switch off.
SYMPTOMS:
(1) System log contains error message: "Remounting filesystem read-only".
(2) The flush kernel thread occupies 50% - 99% of CPU time.
(3) The system can't be shutdowned without manual power switch off.
REPRODUCTION PATH:
(1) Create volume group with name "unencrypted" by means of vgcreate utility.
(2) Run script (prepared by Anthony Doggett <Anthony2486@interfaces.org.uk>):
This patch implements checking mount state of NILFS2 driver in
nilfs_writepage(), nilfs_writepages() and nilfs_mdt_write_page()
methods. If it is detected the RO mount state then all dirty pages are
simply discarded with warning messages is written in system log.
Move the calls to memcpy_fromio() up into the loop in

Merge smbios_present() into dmi_present(), so we look for an SMBIOS

writeback: set worker desc to identify writeback workers in task dumps
Writeback has been recently converted to use workqueue instead of its
private thread pool implementation. One negative side effect of this
conversion is that there's no easy to tell which backing device a
writeback work item was working on at the time of task dump, be it
sysrq-t, BUG, WARN or whatever, which, according to our writeback
brethren, is important in tracking down issues with a lot of mounted
file systems on a lot of different devices.
This patch restores that information using the new worker description
facility. bdi_writeback_workfn() calls set_work_desc() to identify
which bdi it's working on. The description is printed out together with
the worqueue name and worker function as in the following example dump.
workqueue: include workqueue info when printing debug dump of a worker task
One of the problems that arise when converting dedicated custom
threadpool to workqueue is that the shared worker pool used by workqueue
anonimizes each worker making it more difficult to identify what the
worker was doing on which target from the output of sysrq-t or debug
dump from oops, BUG() and friends.
This patch implements set_worker_desc() which can be called from any
workqueue work function to set its description. When the worker task is
dumped for whatever reason - sysrq-t, WARN, BUG, oops, lockdep assertion
and so on - the description will be printed out together with the
workqueue name and the worker function pointer.
The printing side is implemented by print_worker_info() which is called
from functions in task dump paths - sched_show_task() and
dump_stack_print_info(). print_worker_info() can be safely called on
any task in any state as long as the task struct itself is accessible.
It uses probe_*() functions to access worker fields. It may print
garbage if something went very wrong, but it wouldn't cause (another)
oops.
The description is currently limited to 24bytes including the
terminating \0. worker->desc_valid and workder->desc[] are added and
the 64 bytes marker which was already incorrect before adding the new
fields is moved to the correct position.
Here's an example dump with writeback updated to set the bdi name as
worker desc.
One of the problems that arise when converting dedicated custom threadpool
to workqueue is that the shared worker pool used by workqueue anonimizes
each worker making it more difficult to identify what the worker was doing
on which target from the output of sysrq-t or debug dump from oops, BUG()
and friends.
For example, after writeback is converted to use workqueue instead of
priviate thread pool, there's no easy to tell which backing device a
writeback work item was working on at the time of task dump, which,
according to our writeback brethren, is important in tracking down issues
with a lot of mounted file systems on a lot of different devices.
This patchset implements a way for a work function to mark its execution
instance so that task dump of the worker task includes information to
indicate what the work item was doing.
An example WARN dump would look like the following.
Implement probe_kthread_data() which returns kthread_data if accessible.
The function is equivalent to kthread_data() except that the specified
@task may not be a kthread or its vfork_done is already cleared rendering
struct kthread inaccessible. In the former case, probe_kthread_data() may
return any value. In the latter, NULL.
This will be used to safely print debug information without affecting
synchronization in the normal paths. Workqueue debug info printing on
dump_stack() and friends will make use of it.

dump_stack: unify debug information printed by show_regs()
show_regs() is inherently arch-dependent but it does make sense to print
generic debug information and some archs already do albeit in slightly
different forms. This patch introduces a generic function to print debug
information from show_regs() so that different archs print out the same
information and it's much easier to modify what's printed.
show_regs_print_info() prints out the same debug info as dump_stack()
does plus task and thread_info pointers.
* Already prints debug info. Replaced with show_regs_print_info().
The printed information is superset of what used to be there.
arm, arm64, avr32, mips, powerpc, sh32, tile, unicore32, x86
* s390 is special in that it used to print arch-specific information
along with generic debug info. Heiko and Martin think that the
arch-specific extra isn't worth keeping s390 specfic implementation.
Converted to use the generic version.
Note that now all archs print the debug info before actual register
dumps.
v3: CPU number dropped from show_regs_print_info() as
dump_stack_print_info() has been updated to print it. s390
specific implementation dropped as requested by s390 maintainers.

dump_stack: implement arch-specific hardware description in task dumps
x86 and ia64 can acquire extra hardware identification information
from DMI and print it along with task dumps; however, the usage isn't
consistent.
* x86 show_regs() collects vendor, product and board strings and print
them out with PID, comm and utsname. Some of the information is
printed again later in the same dump.
* warn_slowpath_common() explicitly accesses the DMI board and prints
it out with "Hardware name:" label. This applies to both x86 and
ia64 but is irrelevant on all other archs.
* ia64 doesn't show DMI information on other non-WARN dumps.
This patch introduces arch-specific hardware description used by
dump_stack(). It can be set by calling dump_stack_set_arch_desc()
during boot and, if exists, printed out in a separate line with
"Hardware name:" label.
dmi_set_dump_stack_arch_desc() is added which sets arch-specific
description from DMI data. It uses dmi_ids_string[] which is set from
dmi_present() used for DMI debug message. It is superset of the
information x86 show_regs() is using. The function is called from x86
and ia64 boot code right after dmi_scan_machine().
This makes the explicit DMI handling in warn_slowpath_common()
unnecessary. Removed.
show_regs() isn't yet converted to use generic debug information
printing and this patch doesn't remove the duplicate DMI handling in
x86 show_regs(). The next patch will unify show_regs() handling and
remove the duplication.
v2: Use the same string as the debug message from dmi_present() which
also contains BIOS information. Move hardware name into its own
line as warn_slowpath_common() did. This change was suggested by

dmi: morph dmi_dump_ids() into dmi_format_ids() which formats into a buffer
We're goning to use DMI identification for other purposes too. Morph
dmi_dump_ids() which is used to print DMI identification as a debug
message during boot into dmi_format_ids() which formats the same
information sans the leading "DMI:" tag into a string buffer.
dmi_present() is updated to format the information into dmi_ids_string[]
using the new function and print it with "DMI:" prefix.
dmi_ids_string[] will be used for another purpose by a future patch.

dump_stack: consolidate dump_stack() implementations and unify their behaviors
Both dump_stack() and show_stack() are currently implemented by each
architecture. show_stack(NULL, NULL) dumps the backtrace for the
current task as does dump_stack(). On some archs, dump_stack() prints
extra information - pid, utsname and so on - in addition to the
backtrace while the two are identical on other archs.
The usages in arch-independent code of the two functions indicate
show_stack(NULL, NULL) should print out bare backtrace while
dump_stack() is used for debugging purposes when something went wrong,
so it does make sense to print additional information on the task which
triggered dump_stack().
There's no reason to require archs to implement two separate but mostly
identical functions. It leads to unnecessary subtle information.
This patch expands the dummy fallback dump_stack() implementation in
lib/dump_stack.c such that it prints out debug information (taken from
x86) and invokes show_stack(NULL, NULL) and drops arch-specific
dump_stack() implementations in all archs except blackfin. Blackfin's
dump_stack() does something wonky that I don't understand.
Debug information can be printed separately by calling
dump_stack_print_info() so that arch-specific dump_stack()
implementation can still emit the same debug information. This is used
in blackfin.
This patch brings the following behavior changes.
* On some archs, an extra level in backtrace for show_stack() could be
printed. This is because the top frame was determined in
dump_stack() on those archs while generic dump_stack() can't do that
reliably. It can be compensated by inlining dump_stack() but not
sure whether that'd be necessary.
* Most archs didn't use to print debug info on dump_stack(). They do
now.
v2: CPU number added to the generic debug info as requested by s390
folks and dropped the s390 specific dump_stack(). This loses %ksp
from the debug message which the maintainers think isn't important
enough to keep the s390-specific dump_stack() implementation.
dump_stack_print_info() is moved to kernel/printk.c from
lib/dump_stack.c. Because linkage is per objecct file,
dump_stack_print_info() living in the same lib file as generic
dump_stack() means that archs which implement custom dump_stack()
- at this point, only blackfin - can't use dump_stack_print_info()
as that will bring in the generic version of dump_stack() too. v1
The v1 patch broke build on blackfin due to this issue. The build
breakage was reported by Fengguang Wu.

sparc32: make show_stack() acquire %fp if @_ksp is not specified
show_stack(current or NULL, NULL) is used by arch-independent code to dump
backtrace of the current task; however, sparc32 show_stack() doesn't
implement it and wouldn't print any backtrace when NULL @_ksp is specfied.
Make show_stack() acquire and use %fp if @tsk is NULL or current and @_ksp
is NULL. This makes %fp fetching in dump_stack() unnecessary. Make it
use NULL for @_ksp instead.
Only compile tested.

x86: don't show trace beyond show_stack(NULL, NULL)
There are multiple ways a task can be dumped - explicit call to
dump_stack(), triggering WARN() or BUG(), through sysrq-t and so on.
Most of what gets printed is upto each architecture and the current
state is not particularly pretty. Different pieces of information are
presented differently depending on which path the dump takes and which
architecture it's running on. This is messy for no good reason and
makes it exceedingly difficult to add or modify debug information to
task dumps.
In all archs except for s390, there's nothing arch-specific about the
printed debug information. This patchset updates all those archs to use
the same helpers to consistently print out the same debug information.
0001-0002 update stack dumping functions in x86 and sparc32 in
preparation.
0003 makes all arches except blackfin use generic dump_stack().
blackfin still uses the generic helper to print the same info.
0004-0005 properly abstract DMI identifier printing in WARN() and
show_regs() so that all dumps print out the information. This enables
show_regs() to use the same debug info message.
0006 updates show_regs() of all arches to use a common generic helper
to print debug info.
0007 removes somem duplicate information from arc dumps.
While this patchset changes how debug info is printed on some archs,
the printed information is always superset of what used to be there.
This patchset makes task dump debug messages consistent and enables
adding more information. Workqueue is scheduled to add worker
information including the workqueue in use and work item specific
description.
While this patch touches a lot of archs, it isn't too likely to cause
non-trivial conflicts with arch-specfic changes and would probably be
best to route together either through -mm.
x86 is tested but other archs are either only compile tested or not
tested at all. Changes to most archs are generally trivial.
This patch:
show_stack(current or NULL, NULL) is used to print the backtrace of the
current task. As trace beyond the function itself isn't of much
interest to anyone, don't show it by determining sp and bp in
show_stack()'s frame and passing them to show_stack_log_lvl().
This brings show_stack(NULL, NULL)'s behavior in line with
dump_stack().

select_parent() populates the dispose list with dentries which
shrink_dentry_list() then deletes. select_parent() carefully uses
need_resched() to avoid doing too much work at once. But neither
shrink_dcache_parent() nor its called functions call cond_resched(). So
once need_resched() is set select_parent() will return single dentry
dispose list which is then deleted by shrink_dentry_list(). This is
inefficient when there are a lot of dentry to process. This can cause
softlockup and hurts interactivity on non preemptable kernels.
This change adds cond_resched() in shrink_dcache_parent(). The benefit
of this is that need_resched() is quickly cleared so that future calls
to select_parent() are able to efficiently return a big batch of dentry.
These additional cond_resched() do not seem to impact performance, at
least for the workload below.
Here is a program which can cause soft lockup if other system activity
sets need_resched().

Pull core timer updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The main changes in this cycle's merge are:
- Implement shadow timekeeper to shorten in kernel reader side
blocking, by Thomas Gleixner.
- Posix timers enhancements by Pavel Emelyanov:
- allocate timer ID per process, so that exact timer ID allocations
can be re-created be checkpoint/restore code.
- debuggability and tooling (/proc/PID/timers, etc.) improvements.
- suspend/resume enhancements by Feng Tang: on certain new Intel Atom
processors (Penwell and Cloverview), there is a feature that the
TSC won't stop in S3 state, so the TSC value won't be reset to 0
after resume. This can be taken advantage of by the generic via
the CLOCK_SOURCE_SUSPEND_NONSTOP flag: instead of using the RTC to
recover/approximate sleep time, the main (and precise) clocksource
can be used.
- Fix /proc/timer_list for 4096 CPUs by Nathan Zimmer: on so many
CPUs the file goes beyond 4MB of size and thus the current
simplistic seqfile approach fails. Convert /proc/timer_list to a
proper seq_file with its own iterator.
- Cleanups and refactorings of the core timekeeping code by John
Stultz.
- International Atomic Clock time is managed by the NTP code
internally currently but not exposed externally. Separate the TAI
code out and add CLOCK_TAI support and TAI support to the hrtimer
and posix-timer code, by John Stultz.
- Add deep idle support enhacement to the broadcast clockevents core
timer code, by Daniel Lezcano: add an opt-in CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_DYNIRQ
clockevents feature (which will be utilized by future clockevents
driver updates), which allows the use of IRQ affinities to avoid
spurious wakeups of idle CPUs - the right CPU with an expiring
timer will be woken.
- Add new ARM bcm281xx clocksource driver, by Christian Daudt
- ... various other fixes and cleanups"
