dma-mapping: add asm-generic/dma-mapping-common.h

We unified x86 and IA64's handling of multiple dma mapping operations
(struct dma_map_ops in linux/dma-mapping.h) so we can remove duplication
in their arch/include/asm/dma-mapping.h.

This patchset adds include/asm-generic/dma-mapping-common.h that provides
some generic dma mapping function definitions for the users of struct
dma_map_ops.  This enables us to remove about 100 lines.  This also
enables us to easily add CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG support, which only x86
supports for now.  The 4th patch adds CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG support to IA64
by adding only 8 lines.

This patch:

This header file provides some mapping function definitions that the users
of struct dma_map_ops can use.

  not linked to main kernel
* arch/vdso, arch/kernel/vsyscall_64 and arch/kernel/hpet:

gcov: add gcov profiling infrastructure

Enable the use of GCC's coverage testing tool gcov [1] with the Linux
kernel.  gcov may be useful for:

 * debugging (has this code been reached at all?)
 * test improvement (how do I change my test to cover these lines?)
 * minimizing kernel configurations (do I need this option if the
   associated code is never run?)

The profiling patch incorporates the following changes:

 * change kbuild to include profiling flags
 * provide functions needed by profiling code
 * present profiling data as files in debugfs

Note that on some architectures, enabling gcc's profiling option
"-fprofile-arcs" for the entire kernel may trigger compile/link/
run-time problems, some of which are caused by toolchain bugs and
others which require adjustment of architecture code.

For this reason profiling the entire kernel is initially restricted
to those architectures for which it is known to work without changes.
This restriction can be lifted once an architecture has been tested
and found compatible with gcc's profiling. Profiling of single files
or directories is still available on all platforms (see config help
text).

futex: documentation: fix inconsistent description of futex list_op_pending

Strictly speaking list_op_pending points to the 'lock entry', not the
'lock word' (which is actually at 'offset' from 'lock entry').  We can
infer this based on reading the code in kernel/futex.c:

    struct robust_list __user *entry, *next_entry, *pending;
...
            if (fetch_robust_entry(&pending, &head->list_op_pending, &pip))
                    return;
            ...
            if (pending)
                    handle_futex_death((void __user *)pending + futex_offset,
                                       curr, pip);

Which is also consistent with the rest of the docs on robust futex lists.

find_task_by_pid_ns, but both of them pass PIDTYPE_PID as first argument.
So just fold find_task_by_pid_type_ns into find_task_by_pid_ns and use

While we're at it also remove the exports for find_task_by_pid_ns and

switched to pid_task which operates on a struct pid pointer instead of a
pid_t.  Given the confusion about pid_t values vs namespace that's

kthreads: rework kthread_stop()

Based on Eric's patch which in turn was based on my patch.

kthread_stop() has the nasty problems:

- it runs unpredictably long with the global semaphore held.

- it deadlocks if kthread itself does kthread_stop() before it obeys
  the kthread_should_stop() request.

- it is not useable if kthread exits on its own, see for example the
  ugly "wait_to_die:" hack in migration_thread()

- it is not possible to just tell kthread it should stop, we must always
  wait for its exit.

With this patch kthread() allocates all neccesary data (struct kthread) on
its own stack, globals kthread_stop_xxx are deleted.  ->vfork_done is used
as a pointer into "struct kthread", this means kthread_stop() can easily
wait for kthread's exit.

kthreads: simplify the startup synchronization

We use two completions two create the kernel thread, this is a bit ugly.
kthread() wakes up create_kthread() via ->started, then create_kthread()
wakes up the caller kthread_create() via ->done.  But kthread() does not
need to wait for kthread(), it can just return.  Instead kthread() itself
can wake up the caller of kthread_create().

Kill kthread_create_info->started, ->done is enough.  This improves the
scalability a bit and sijmplifies the code.

The only problem if kernel_thread() fails, in that case create_kthread()
must do complete(&create->done).

do_wait: fix the theoretical race with stop/trace/cont

do_wait:

current->state = TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE;

read_lock(&tasklist_lock);
... search for the task to reap ...

In theory, the ->state changing can leak into the critical section.  Since
the child can change its status under read_lock(tasklist) in parallel
(finish_stop/ptrace_stop), we can miss the wakeup if __wake_up_parent()
sees us in TASK_RUNNING state.  Add the barrier.

Also, use __set_current_state() to set TASK_RUNNING.

do_wait: simplify retval/tsk_result/notask_error mess

Now that we don't pass &retval down to other helpers we can simplify
the code more.

- kill tsk_result, just use retval

- add the "notask" label right after the main loop, and
  s/got end/goto notask/ after the fastpath pid check.

  This way we don't need to initialize retval before this

ptrace: do not use task_lock() for attach

Remove the "Nasty, nasty" lock dance in ptrace_attach()/ptrace_traceme() -
from now task_lock() has nothing to do with ptrace at all.

With the recent changes nobody uses task_lock() to serialize with ptrace,
but in fact it was never needed and it was never used consistently.

However ptrace_attach() calls __ptrace_may_access() and needs task_lock()
to pin task->mm for get_dumpable().  But we can call __ptrace_may_access()
before we take tasklist_lock, ->cred_exec_mutex protects us against
do_execve() path which can change creds and MMF_DUMP* flags.

(ugly, but we can't use ptrace_may_access() because it hides the error
code, so we have to take task_lock() and use __ptrace_may_access()).

NOTE: this change assumes that LSM hooks, security_ptrace_may_access() and
security_ptrace_traceme(), can be called without task_lock() held.

cgroups: forbid noprefix if mounting more than just cpuset subsystem

The 'noprefix' option was introduced for backwards-compatibility of
cpuset, but actually it can be used when mounting other subsystems.

This results in possibility of name collision, and now the collision can
really happen, because we have 'stat' file in both memory and cpuacct
subsystem:

# mount -t cgroup -o noprefix,memory,cpuacct xxx /mnt

Cgroup will happily mount the 2 subsystems, but only 'stat' file of memory
subsys can be seen.

We don't want users to use nopreifx, and also want to avoid name
collision, so we change to allow noprefix only if mounting just the cpuset
subsystem.

reiserfs: fix warnings with gcc 4.4

Several code paths in reiserfs have a construct like:

 if (is_direntry_le_ih(ih = B_N_PITEM_HEAD(src, item_num))) ...

which, in addition to being ugly, end up causing compiler warnings with
gcc 4.4.0.  Previous compilers didn't issue a warning.

fs/reiserfs/do_balan.c:1273: warning: operation on `aux_ih' may be undefined
fs/reiserfs/lbalance.c:393: warning: operation on `ih' may be undefined
fs/reiserfs/lbalance.c:421: warning: operation on `ih' may be undefined
fs/reiserfs/lbalance.c:777: warning: operation on `ih' may be undefined

I believe this is due to the ih being passed to macros which evaluate the
argument more than once.  This is old code and we haven't seen any
problems with it, but this patch eliminates the warnings.

It converts the multiple evaluation macros to static inlines and does a
preassignment for the cases that were causing the warnings because that
code is just ugly.

ext3: make sure inode is deleted from orphan list after truncate

As Ted pointed out, it can happen that ext3_truncate() returns without
removing inode from orphan list.  This way we could in some rare cases
(like when we get ENOMEM from an allocation in ext3_truncate called
because of failed ext3_write_begin) leave the inode on orphan list and
that triggers assertion failure on umount.

So make ext3_truncate() always remove inode from in-memory orphan list.

ext2: Do not update mtime of a moved directory

One of our users is complaining that his backup tool is upset on ext2
(while it's happy on ext3, xfs, ...) because of the mtime change.

The problem is:

    mkdir foo
    mkdir bar
    mkdir foo/a

Now under ext2:
    mv foo/a foo/b

changes mtime of 'foo/a' (foo/b after the move).  That does not really
make sense and it does not happen under any other filesystem I've seen.

More complicated is:
    mv foo/a bar/a

This changes mtime of foo/a (bar/a after the move) and it makes some
sense since we had to update parent directory pointer of foo/a.  But
again, no other filesystem does this.  So after some thoughts I'd vote
for consistency and change ext2 to behave the same as other filesystems.

Do not update mtime of a moved directory.  Specs don't say anything
about it (neither that it should, nor that it should not be updated) and
other common filesystems (ext3, ext4, xfs, reiserfs, fat, ...) don't do
it.  So let's become more consistent.

Add support for the Epson RX-8025SA/NB RTC chips.  It includes support for
alarms, periodic interrupts (1 Hz) and clock precision adjustment.

For clock precision adjustment, the SYSFS file "clock_adjust_ppb" gets
created in "/sys/class/rtc/rtcX/device".  It permits to set and get the
clock adjustment in ppb (parts per billion), e.g.:

  # echo -183000 > /sys/class/rtc/rtc0/device/clock_adjust_ppb
  # cat /sys/class/rtc/rtc0/device/clock_adjust_ppb
  -183000

This allows to compensate temperature dependent clock drifts.  According
to the RX8025 SA/NB application manual the frequency and temperature
characteristics can be approximated using the following equation:

  df = a * (ut - t)**2

  df: Frequency deviation in any temperature
  a : Coefficient = (-35 +-5) * 10**-9

Start moving some spi_setup() functionality into the SPI core from the
various spi_master controller drivers:

 - Make that function stop being an inline;

 - Move two common idioms from drivers into that new function:
    * Default bits_per_word to 8 if that field isn't set
    * Issue a standardized dev_dbg() message

This is a net minor source code shrink, and supports enhancments found in
some follow-up patches.

epoll: fix nested calls support

This fixes a regression in 2.6.30.

I unfortunately accepted a patch time ago, to drop the "current" usage
from possible IRQ context, w/out proper thought over it.  The patch
switched to using the CPU id by bounding the nested call callback with a
get_cpu()/put_cpu().

Unfortunately the ep_call_nested() function can be called with a callback
that grabs sleepy locks (from own f_op->poll()), that results in epic
fails.  The following patch uses the proper "context" depending on the
path where it is called, and on the kind of callback.

This has been reported by Stefan Richter, that has also verified the patch
is his previously failing environment.

proc: export statistics for softirq to /proc

Export statistics for softirq in /proc/softirqs and /proc/stat.

1. /proc/softirqs
Implement /proc/softirqs which shows the number of softirq
for each CPU like /proc/interrupts.

2. /proc/stat
Add the "softirq" line to /proc/stat.
This line shows the number of softirq for all cpu.
The first column is the total of all softirqs and
each subsequent column is the total for particular softirq.

softirq: introduce statistics for softirq

Statistics for softirq doesn't exist.
It will be helpful like statistics for interrupts.
This patch introduces counting the number of softirq,
which will be exported in /proc/softirqs.

When softirq handler consumes much CPU time,
/proc/stat is like the following.

$ while :; do  cat /proc/stat | head -n1 ; sleep 10 ; done
cpu  88 0 408 739665 583 28 2 0 0
cpu  450 0 1090 740970 594 28 1294 0 0
                              ^^^^
                             softirq

In such a situation,
/proc/softirqs shows us which softirq handler is invoked.
We can see the increase rate of softirqs.

<before>
$ cat /proc/softirqs
                CPU0       CPU1       CPU2       CPU3
HI                 0          0          0          0
TIMER         462850     462805     462782     462718

<after>
$ cat /proc/softirqs
                CPU0       CPU1       CPU2       CPU3
HI                 0          0          0          0
TIMER         463361     465077     465056     464991

RCU             3505       2948       3947       3673

When CPU TIME of softirq is high,
the rates of increase is the following.
  TIMER  : 220/sec     : CPU1-3
  NET_TX : 5/sec       : CPU0
  NET_RX : 120/sec     : CPU0
  SCHED  : 40-200/sec  : all CPU
  RCU    : 45-58/sec   : all CPU

The rates of increase in an idle mode is the following.
  TIMER  : 250/sec
  SCHED  : 250/sec
  RCU    : 2/sec

It seems many softirqs for receiving packets and rcu are invoked.  This
gives us help for checking system.
