init: Do not warn on non-zero initcall return

Commit f91eb62f71b3 ("init: scream bloody murder if interrupts are
enabled too early") added three new warnings.  The first two seemed
reasonable, but the third included a warning when an initcall returned
non-zero.  Although, the third WARN() does include an imbalanced preempt
disabled, or irqs disable, it shouldn't warn if it only had an initcall
that just returns non-zero.

In fact, according to Linus, it shouldn't print at all.  As it only
prints with initcall_debug set, and that already shows enough
information to fix things.

Merge branch 'ipc-scalability'

Merge IPC cleanup and scalability patches from Andrew Morton.

This cleans up many of the oddities in the IPC code, uses the list
iterator helpers, splits out locking and adds per-semaphore locks for
greater scalability of the IPC semaphore code.

Most normal user-level locking by now uses futexes (ie pthreads, but
also a lot of specialized locks), but SysV IPC semaphores are apparently
still used in some big applications, either for portability reasons, or
because they offer tracking and undo (and you don't need to have a
special shared memory area for them).

Our IPC semaphore scalability was pitiful.  We used to lock much too big
ranges, and we used to have a single ipc lock per ipc semaphore array.

Introduce finer grained locking for semtimedop, to handle the common case
of a program wanting to manipulate one semaphore from an array with
multiple semaphores.

multiple semaphores, only take the lock for that semaphore itself.

If the call needs to manipulate multiple semaphores, or another caller is
in a transaction that manipulates multiple semaphores, the sem_array lock
is taken, as well as all the locks for the individual semaphores.

11 years agotty: fix up atime/mtime mess, take three
Linus Torvalds [Wed, 1 May 2013 14:32:21 +0000 (07:32 -0700)]
tty: fix up atime/mtime mess, take three

We first tried to avoid updating atime/mtime entirely (commit
b0de59b5733d: "TTY: do not update atime/mtime on read/write"), and then
limited it to only update it occasionally (commit 37b7f3c76595: "TTY:
fix atime/mtime regression"), but it turns out that this was both
insufficient and overkill.

It was insufficient because we let people attach to the shared ptmx node
to see activity without even reading atime/mtime, and it was overkill
because the "only once a minute" means that you can't really tell an
idle person from an active one with 'w'.

So this tries to fix the problem properly.  It marks the shared ptmx
node as un-notifiable, and it lowers the "only once a minute" to a few
seconds instead - still long enough that you can't time individual
keystrokes, but short enough that you can tell whether somebody is
active or not.

dma_buf_export_named(), which additionally takes 'exp_name' as a
parameter.

For backward compatibility, and for lazy exporters who don't wish to
name themselves, a #define dma_buf_export() is also made available,

kernel/sys.c: make prctl(PR_SET_MM) generally available

The purpose of this patch is to allow privileged processes to set
their own per-memory memory-region fields:

      start_code, end_code, start_data, end_data, start_brk, brk,
      start_stack, arg_start, arg_end, env_start, env_end.

This functionality is needed by any application or package that needs to
reconstruct Linux processes, that is, to start them in any way other than
by means of an "execve()" from an executable file.  This includes:

1. Restoring processes from a checkpoint-file (by all potential
   user-level checkpointing packages, not only CRIU's).
2. Restarting processes on another node after process migration.
3. Starting duplicated copies of a running process (for reliability
   and high-availablity).
4. Starting a process from an executable format that is not supported
   by Linux, thus requiring a "manual execve" by a user-level utility.
5. Similarly, starting a process from a networked and/or crypted
   executable that, for confidentiality, licensing or other reasons,
   may not be written to the local file-systems.

The code that does that was already included in the Linux kernel by the
CRIU group, in the form of "prctl(PR_SET_MM)", but prior to this was
enclosed within their private "#ifdef CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE", which is
normally disabled.  The patch removes those ifdefs.

init/Kconfig: re-order CONFIG_EXPERT options to fix menuconfig display

The kconfig language requires that dependent options all follow the
menuconfig symbol in order to be collapsed below it.  Recently some hidden
options were added below the EXPERT menuconfig, but did not depend on
EXPERT (because hidden options can't).  This broke the display.  So
re-order all these options, and while we're here stick the PCI quirks
under the EXPERT menu (since it isn't sitting with any related options).

Before this commit, we get:
[*] Configure standard kernel features (expert users)  --->
[ ] Sysctl syscall support
[*] Load all symbols for debugging/ksymoops
...

Now we get the older (and correct) behavior:
[*] Configure standard kernel features (expert users)  --->
[ ] Embedded system
And if you go into the expert menu you get the expert options:

Kconfig: consolidate CONFIG_DEBUG_STRICT_USER_COPY_CHECKS

The help text for this config is duplicated across the x86, parisc, and
s390 Kconfig.debug files.  Arnd Bergman noted that the help text was
slightly misleading and should be fixed to state that enabling this
option isn't a problem when using pre 4.4 gcc.

To simplify the rewording, consolidate the text into lib/Kconfig.debug
and modify it there to be more explicit about when you should say N to
this config.

Also, make the text a bit more generic by stating that this option
enables compile time checks so we can cover architectures which emit
warnings vs.  ones which emit errors.  The details of how an
architecture decided to implement the checks isn't as important as the
concept of compile time checking of copy_from_user() calls.

While we're doing this, remove all the copy_from_user_overflow() code
that's duplicated many times and place it into lib/ so that any
architecture supporting this option can get the function for free.

exec: do not abuse ->cred_guard_mutex in threadgroup_lock()

thread_group_leader() is stable.  This doesn't look nice, the scope of
this lock in do_execve() is huge.

And as Dave pointed out this can lead to deadlock, we have the
following dependencies:

do_execve: cred_guard_mutex -> i_mutex
cgroup_mount: i_mutex -> cgroup_mutex
attach_task_by_pid: cgroup_mutex -> cred_guard_mutex

Change de_thread() to take threadgroup_change_begin() around the
switch-the-leader code and change threadgroup_lock() to avoid
->cred_guard_mutex.

Note that de_thread() can't sleep with ->group_rwsem held, this can
obviously deadlock with the exiting leader if the writer is active, so it
does threadgroup_change_end() before schedule().

fs, proc: truncate /proc/pid/comm writes to first TASK_COMM_LEN bytes

Currently, a write to a procfs file will return the number of bytes
successfully written.  If the actual string is longer than this, the
remainder of the string will not be be written and userspace will
complete the operation by issuing additional write()s.

Hence

$ echo -n "abcdefghijklmnopqrs" > /proc/self/comm

results in

$ cat /proc/$$/comm
pqrs

since the final four bytes were written with a second write() since
TASK_COMM_LEN == 16.  This is obviously an undesired result and not
equivalent to prctl(PR_SET_NAME).  The implementation should not need to
know the definition of TASK_COMM_LEN.

This patch truncates the string to the first TASK_COMM_LEN bytes and
returns the bytes written as the length of the string written so the
second write() is suppressed.
