ipc/mqueue: strengthen checks on mqueue creation
We already check the mq attr struct if it's passed in, but now that the
admin can set system wide defaults separate from maximums, it's actually
possible to set the defaults to something that would overflow. So, if
there is no attr struct passed in to the open call, check the default
values.
While we are at it, simplify mq_attr_ok() by making it return 0 or an
error condition, so that way if we add more tests to it later, we have the
option of what error should be returned instead of the calling location
having to pick a possibly inaccurate error code.

ipc/mqueue: correct mq_attr_ok test
While working on the other parts of the mqueue stuff, I noticed that the
calculation for overflow in mq_attr_ok didn't actually match reality (this
is especially true since my last patch which changed how we account memory
slightly).
In particular, we used to test for overflow using:
msgs * msgsize + msgs * sizeof(struct msg_msg *)
That was never really correct because each message we allocate via
load_msg() is actually a struct msg_msg followed by the data for the
message (and if struct msg_msg + data exceeds PAGE_SIZE we end up
allocating struct msg_msgseg structs too, but accounting for them would
get really tedious, so let's ignore those...they're only a pointer in size
anyway). This patch updates the calculation to be more accurate in
regards to maximum possible memory consumption by the mqueue.

ipc/mqueue: improve performance of send/recv
The existing implementation of the POSIX message queue send and recv
functions is, well, abysmal. Even worse than abysmal. I submitted a
patch to increase the maximum POSIX message queue limit to 65536 due to
customer needs, however, upon looking over the send/recv implementation, I
realized that my customer needs help with that too even if they don't know
it. The basic problem is that, given the fairly typical use case scenario
for a large queue of queueing lots of messages all at the same priority (I
verified with my customer that this is indeed what their app does), the
msg_insert routine is basically a frikkin' bubble sort. I mean, whoa,
that's *so* middle school.
OK, OK, to not slam the original author too much, I'm sure they didn't
envision a queue depth of 50,000+ messages. No one would think that
moving elements in an array, one at a time, and dereferencing each pointer
in that array to check priority of the message being pointed too, again
one at a time, for 50,000+ times would be good. So let's assume that, as
is typical, the users have found a way to break our code simply by using
it in a way we didn't envision. Fair enough.
"So, just how broken is it?", you ask. I wondered the same thing, so I
wrote an app to let me know. It's my next patch. It gave me some
interesting results. Here's what it tested:
Interference with other apps - In continuous mode, the app just sits there
and hits a message queue forever, while you go do something productive on
another terminal using other CPUs. You then measure how long it takes you
to do that something productive. Then you restart the app in fake
continuous mode, and it sits in a tight loop on a CPU while you repeat
your tests. The whole point of this is to keep one CPU tied up (so it
can't be used in your other work) but in one case tied up hitting the
mqueue code so we can see the effect of walking that 65,528 element array
one pointer at a time on the global CPU cache. If it's bad, then it will
slow down your app on the other CPUs just by polluting cache mercilessly.
In the fake case, it will be in a tight loop, but not polluting cache.
Testing the mqueue subsystem directly - Here we just run a number of tests
to see how the mqueue subsystem performs under different conditions. A
couple conditions are known to be worst case for the old system, and some
routines, so this tests all of them.
So, on to the results already:
Subsystem/Test Old New

kernel (make -j12 on a
6 core CPU)
Running mqueue test user 49m10.744s user 45m26.294s

increasing priority 403105/916 495/445
decreasing priority 73420/594 482/409

Time to fill/drain queue (65528 messages, in seconds)

increasing priority 4.14/.14 .21/.18
decreasing priority 12.93/.13 .21/.18
random priority 8.88/.16 .22/.17
So, I think the results speak for themselves. It's possible this
implementation could be improved by cacheing at least one priority level
in the node tree (that would bring the queue empty performance more in
line with the old implementation), but this works and is *so* much better
than what we had, especially for the common case of a single priority in
use, that further refinements can be in follow on patches.

This made large side effect. When user need to use two mqueue

ipc/mqueue: update maximums for the mqueue subsystem
Commit
b231cca4381e ("message queues: increase range limits") changed the
maximum size of a message in a message queue from INT_MAX to 8192*128.
Unfortunately, we had customers that relied on a size much larger than
8192*128 on their production systems. After reviewing POSIX, we found
that it is silent on the maximum message size. We did find a couple other
areas in which it was not silent. Fix up the mqueue maximums so that the
customer's system can continue to work, and document both the POSIX and
real world requirements in ipc_namespace.h so that we don't have this
issue crop back up.
Also, commit
9cf18e1dd74cd0 ("ipc: HARD_MSGMAX should be higher not lower
on 64bit") fiddled with HARD_MSGMAX without realizing that the number was
intentionally in place to limit the msg queue depth to one that was small
enough to kmalloc an array of pointers (hence why we divided 128k by
sizeof(long)). If we wish to meet POSIX requirements, we have no choice
but to change our allocation to a vmalloc instead (at least for the large
queue size case). With that, it's possible to increase our allowed
maximum to the POSIX requirements (or more if we choose).

ipc/mqueue: switch back to using non-max values on create
Commit
b231cca4381e ("message queues: increase range limits") changed
how we create a queue that does not include an attr struct passed to
open so that it creates the queue with whatever the maximum values are.
However, if the admin has set the maximums to allow flexibility in
creating a queue (aka, both a large size and large queue are allowed,
but combined they create a queue too large for the RLIMIT_MSGQUEUE of
the user), then attempts to create a queue without an attr struct will
fail. Switch back to using acceptable defaults regardless of what the
maximums are.
Note: so far, we only know of a few applications that rely on this
behavior (specifically, set the maximums in /proc, then run the
application which calls mq_open() without passing in an attr struct, and
the application expects the newly created message queue to have the
maximum sizes that were set in /proc used on the mq_open() call, and all
of those applications that we know of are actually part of regression
test suites that were coded to do something like this:
for size in 4096 65536 $((1024 * 1024)) $((16 * 1024 * 1024)); do
echo $size > /proc/sys/fs/mqueue/msgsize_max
mq_open || echo "Error opening mq with size $size"
done
These test suites that depend on any behavior like this are broken. The
concept that programs should rely upon the system wide maximum in order
to get their desired results instead of simply using a attr struct to
specify what they want is fundamentally unfriendly programming practice
for any multi-tasking OS.
Fixing this will break those few apps that we know of (and those app
authors recognize the brokenness of their code and the need to fix it).
However, the following patch "mqueue: separate mqueue default value"
allows a workaround in the form of new knobs for the default msg queue
creation parameters for any software out there that we don't already
know about that might rely on this behavior at the moment.

ipc/mqueue: cleanup definition names and locations
Since commit
b231cca4381e ("message queues: increase range limits") on
Oct 18, 2008, calls to mq_open() that did not pass in an attribute
struct and expected to get default values for the size of the queue and
the max message size now get the system wide maximums instead of
hardwired defaults like they used to get.
This was uncovered when one of the earlier patches in this patch set
increased the default system wide maximums at the same time it increased
the hard ceiling on the system wide maximums (a customer specifically
needed the hard ceiling brought back up, the new ceiling that commit
b231cca4381e introduced was too low for their production systems). By
increasing the default maximums and not realising they were tied to any
attempt to create a message queue without an attribute struct, I had
inadvertently made it such that all message queue creation attempts
without an attribute struct were failing because the new default
maximums would create a queue that exceeded the default rlimit for
message queue bytes.
As a result, the system wide defaults were brought back down to their
previous levels, and the system wide ceilings on the maximums were
raised to meet the customer's needs. However, the fact that the no
attribute struct behavior of mq_open() could be broken by changing the
system wide maximums for message queues was seen as fundamentally broken
itself. So we hardwired the no attribute case back like it used to be.
But, then we realized that on the very off chance that some piece of
software in the wild depended on that behavior, we could work around
that issue by adding two new knobs to /proc that allowed setting the
defaults for message queues created without an attr struct separately
from the system wide maximums.
What is not an option IMO is to leave the current behavior in place. No
piece of software should ever rely on setting the system wide maximums
in order to get a desired message queue. Such a reliance would be so
fundamentally multitasking OS unfriendly as to not really be tolerable.
Fortunately, we don't know of any software in the wild that uses this
except for a regression test program that caught the issue in the first
place. If there is though, we have made accommodations with the two new
/proc knobs (and that's all the accommodations such fundamentally broken
software can be allowed)..
This patch:
The various defines for minimums and maximums of the sysctl controllable
mqueue values are scattered amongst different files and named
inconsistently. Move them all into ipc_namespace.h and make them have
consistent names. Additionally, make the number of queues per namespace
also have a minimum and maximum and use the same sysctl function as the
other two settable variables.

powerpc: use clear_tasks_mm_cpumask()
Current CPU hotplug code has some task->mm handling issues:
1. Working with task->mm w/o getting mm or grabing the task lock is
dangerous as ->mm might disappear (exit_mm() assigns NULL under
task_lock(), so tasklist lock is not enough).
We can't use get_task_mm()/mmput() pair as mmput() might sleep,
so we must take the task lock while handle its mm.
2. Checking for process->mm is not enough because process' main
thread may exit or detach its mm via use_mm(), but other threads
may still have a valid mm.
To fix this we would need to use find_lock_task_mm(), which would
walk up all threads and returns an appropriate task (with task
lock held).
clear_tasks_mm_cpumask() has all the issues fixed, so let's use it.

cpu: introduce clear_tasks_mm_cpumask() helper
Many architectures clear tasks' mm_cpumask like this:
read_lock(&tasklist_lock);
for_each_process(p) {
if (p->mm)
cpumask_clear_cpu(cpu, mm_cpumask(p->mm));
}
read_unlock(&tasklist_lock);
Depending on the context, the code above may have several problems,
such as:
1. Working with task->mm w/o getting mm or grabing the task lock is
dangerous as ->mm might disappear (exit_mm() assigns NULL under
task_lock(), so tasklist lock is not enough).
2. Checking for process->mm is not enough because process' main
thread may exit or detach its mm via use_mm(), but other threads
may still have a valid mm.
This patch implements a small helper function that does things
correctly, i.e.:
1. We take the task's lock while whe handle its mm (we can't use
get_task_mm()/mmput() pair as mmput() might sleep);
2. To catch exited main thread case, we use find_lock_task_mm(),
which walks up all threads and returns an appropriate task
(with task lock held).
Also, Per Peter Zijlstra's idea, now we don't grab tasklist_lock in
the new helper, instead we take the rcu read lock. We can do this
because the function is called after the cpu is taken down and marked
offline, so no new tasks will get this cpu set in their mm mask.

proc: report file/anon bit in /proc/pid/pagemap
This is an implementation of Andrew's proposal to extend the pagemap file
bits to report what is missing about tasks' working set.
The problem with the working set detection is multilateral. In the criu
(checkpoint/restore) project we dump the tasks' memory into image files
and to do it properly we need to detect which pages inside mappings are
really in use. The mincore syscall I though could help with this did not.
First, it doesn't report swapped pages, thus we cannot find out which
parts of anonymous mappings to dump. Next, it does report pages from page
cache as present even if they are not mapped, and it doesn't make that has
not been cow-ed.
Note, that issue with swap pages is critical -- we must dump swap pages to
image file. But the issues with file pages are optimization -- we can
take all file pages to image, this would be correct, but if we know that a
page is not mapped or not cow-ed, we can remove them from dump file. The
dump would still be self-consistent, though significantly smaller in size
(up to 10 times smaller on real apps).
Andrew noticed, that the proc pagemap file solved 2 of 3 above issues --
it reports whether a page is present or swapped and it doesn't report not
mapped page cache pages. But, it doesn't distinguish cow-ed file pages
from not cow-ed.
I would like to make the last unused bit in this file to report whether the
page mapped into respective pte is PageAnon or not.

cred: remove task_is_dead() from __task_cred() validation
Commit
8f92054e7ca1 ("CRED: Fix __task_cred()'s lockdep check and banner
comment"):
add the following validation condition:
task->exit_state >= 0
to permit the access if the target task is dead and therefore
unable to change its own credentials.
OK, but afaics currently this can only help wait_task_zombie() which calls
__task_cred() without rcu lock.
Remove this validation and change wait_task_zombie() to use task_uid()
instead. This means we do rcu_read_lock() only to shut up the lockdep,
but we already do the same in, say, wait_task_stopped().
task_is_dead() should die, task->exit_state != 0 means that this task has
passed exit_notify(), only do_wait-like code paths should use this.
Unfortunately, we can't kill task_is_dead() right now, it has already
acquired buggy users in drivers/staging. The fix already exists.

fat: switch to fsinfo_inode
Currently FAT file-system maps the VFS "superblock" abstraction to the
FSINFO block. The FSINFO block contains non-essential data about the
amount of free clusters and the next free cluster. FAT file-system can
always find out this information by scanning the FAT table, but having it
in the FSINFO block may speed things up sometimes. So FAT file-system
relies on the VFS superblock write-out services to make sure the FSINFO
block is written out to the media from time to time.
The whole "superblock write-out" VFS infrastructure is served by the
'sync_supers()' kernel thread, which wakes up every 5 (by default) seconds
and writes out all dirty superblock using the '->write_super()' call-back.
But the problem with this thread is that it wastes power by waking up the
system every 5 seconds no matter what. So we want to kill it completely
and thus, we need to make file-systems to stop using the '->write_super'
VFS service, and then remove it together with the kernel thread.
This patch switches the FAT FSINFO block management from
'->write_super()'/'->s_dirt' to 'fsinfo_inode'/'->write_inode'. Now,
instead of setting the 's_dirt' flag, we just mark the special
'fsinfo_inode' inode as dirty and let VFS invoke the '->write_inode'
call-back when needed, where we write-out the FSINFO block.
This patch also makes sure we do not mark the 'fsinfo_inode' inode as
dirty if we are not FAT32 (FAT16 and FAT12 do not have the FSINFO block)
or if we are in R/O mode.
As a bonus, we can also remove the '->sync_fs()' and '->write_super()' FAT
call-back function because they become unneeded.

Namely, instead of marking it as dirty in the internal tight loops - do it

The reason for this patch is that marking the superblock as dirty will

fat: introduce special inode for managing the FSINFO block
This is patchset makes fatfs stop using the VFS '->write_super()' method
for writing out the FSINFO block.
The final goal is to get rid of the 'sync_supers()' kernel thread. This
kernel thread wakes up every 5 seconds (by default) and calls
'->write_super()' for all mounted file-systems. And the bad thing is that
this is done even if all the superblocks are clean. Moreover, some
file-systems do not even need this end they do not register the
'->write_super()' method at all (e.g., btrfs).
So 'sync_supers()' most often just generates useless wake-ups and wastes
power. I am trying to make all file-systems independent of
'->write_super()' and plan to remove 'sync_supers()' and '->write_super'
completely once there are no more users.
The '->write_supers()' method is mostly used by baroque file-systems like
hfs, udf, etc. Modern file-systems like btrfs and xfs do not use it.
This justifies removing this stuff from VFS completely and make every FS
self-manage own superblock.
Tested with xfstests.
This patch:
Preparation for further changes. It introduces a special inode
('fsinfo_inode') in FAT file-system which we'll later use for managing the
FSINFO block. Note, this there is already one special inode ('fat_inode')
which is used for managing the FAT tables.
Introduce new 'MSDOS_FSINFO_INO' constant for this special inode. It is
safe to do because FAT file-system does not store inode numbers on the
media but generates them run-time.
I've also cleaned up the comment to existing 'MSDOS_ROOT_INO' constant,
while on it.

pipe: return -ENOIOCTLCMD instead of -EINVAL on unknown ioctl command
As described in commit
07d106d0a33d ("vfs: fix up ENOIOCTLCMD error

command which they don't understand. Doing so will result in -ENOTTY

vsprintf: further optimize decimal conversion
Previous code was using optimizations which were developed to work well
even on narrow-word CPUs (by today's standards). But Linux runs only on
32-bit and wider CPUs. We can use that.
First: using 32x32->64 multiply and trivial 32-bit shift, we can correctly
divide by 10 much larger numbers, and thus we can print groups of 9 digits
instead of groups of 5 digits.
Next: there are two algorithms to print larger numbers. One is generic:
divide by
1000000000 and repeatedly print groups of (up to) 9 digits.
It's conceptually simple, but requires an (unsigned long long) /
1000000000 division.
Second algorithm splits 64-bit unsigned long long into 16-bit chunks,
manipulates them cleverly and generates groups of 4 decimal digits. It so
happens that it does NOT require long long division.
If long is > 32 bits, division of 64-bit values is relatively easy, and we
will use the first algorithm. If long long is > 64 bits (strange
architecture with VERY large long long), second algorithm can't be used,
and we again use the first one.
Else (if long is 32 bits and long long is 64 bits) we use second one.
And third: there is a simple optimization which takes fast path not only
for zero as was done before, but for all one-digit numbers.
In all tested cases new code is faster than old one, in many cases by 30%,
in few cases by more than 50% (for example, on x86-32, conversion of
12345678). Code growth is ~0 in 32-bit case and ~130 bytes in 64-bit
case.

vsprintf: correctly handle width when '#' flag used in %#p format
The '%p' output of the kernel's vsprintf() uses spec.field_width to
determine how many digits to output based on 2 * sizeof(void*) so that all
digits of a pointer are shown. ie. a pointer will be output as
"
001A2B3C" instead of "1A2B3C". However, if the '#' flag is used in the
format (%#p), then the code doesn't take into account the width of the
'0x' prefix and will end up outputing "0x1A2B3C" instead of "0x001A2B3C".
This patch reworks the "pointer()" format hook to include 2 characters for
the '0x' prefix if the '#' flag is included.

spinlock_debug: print kallsyms name for lock
When a spinlock warning is printed we usually get
BUG: spinlock bad magic on CPU#0, modprobe/111
lock: 0xdff09f38, .magic:
00000000, .owner: /0, .owner_cpu: 0
but it's nicer to print the symbol for the lock if we have it so that we
can avoid 'grep
dff09f38 /proc/kallsyms' to find out which lock it was.
Use kallsyms to print the symbol name so we get something a bit easier to
read
BUG: spinlock bad magic on CPU#0, modprobe/112
lock: test_lock, .magic:
00000000, .owner: <none>/-1, .owner_cpu: 0
If the lock is not in kallsyms %ps will fall back to printing the address
directly.

vsprintf: fix %ps on non symbols when using kallsyms
Using %ps in a printk format will sometimes fail silently and print the
empty string if the address passed in does not match a symbol that
kallsyms knows about. But using %pS will fall back to printing the full
address if kallsyms can't find the symbol. Make %ps act the same as %pS
by falling back to printing the address.
While we're here also make %ps print the module that a symbol comes from
so that it matches what %pS already does. Take this simple function for
example (in a module):
static void test_printk(void)
{
int test;
pr_info("with pS: %pS\n", &test);
pr_info("with ps: %ps\n", &test);
}
Before this patch:
with pS: 0xdff7df44

leds: add new transient trigger for one shot timer activation
The leds timer trigger does not currently have an interface to activate a
one shot timer. The current support allows for setting two timers, one
for specifying how long a state to be on, and the second for how long the
state to be off. The delay_on value specifies the time period an LED
should stay in on state, followed by a delay_off value that specifies how
long the LED should stay in off state. The on and off cycle repeats until
the trigger gets deactivated. There is no provision for one time
activation to implement features that require an on or off state to be
held just once and then stay in the original state forever.
Without one shot timer interface, user space can still use timer trigger
to set a timer to hold a state, however when user space application
crashes or goes away without deactivating the timer, the hardware will be
left in that state permanently.
As a specific example of this use-case, let's look at vibrate feature on
phones. Vibrate function on phones is implemented using PWM pins on SoC
or PMIC. There is a need to activate one shot timer to control the
vibrate feature, to prevent user space crashes leaving the phone in
vibrate mode permanently causing the battery to drain.
This trigger exports three properties, activate, state, and duration When
transient trigger is activated these properties are set to default values.
- duration allows setting timer value in msecs. The initial value is 0.
- activate allows activating and deactivating the timer specified by
duration as needed. The initial and default value is 0. This will allow
duration to be set after trigger activation.
- state allows user to specify a transient state to be held for the specified
duration.
