665d66e8fa ide: fix races in handling of user-space SET XFER commands
* Make cmd->tf_flags field 'u16' and add IDE_TFLAG_SET_XFER taskfile flag.

* Update ide_finish_cmd() to set xfer / re-read id if the new flag is set.

* Convert set_xfer_rate() (write handler for /proc/ide/hd?/current_speed)
  and ide_cmd_ioctl() (HDIO_DRIVE_CMD ioctl handler) to use the new flag.

* Remove no longer needed disable_irq_nosync() + enable_irq() from
  ide_config_drive_speed().

fa56d4cb40 ide: allow ide_dev_read_id() to be called from the IRQ context
* Un-static __ide_wait_stat().

* Allow ide_dev_read_id() helper to be called from the IRQ context by
  adding irq_ctx flag and using mdelay()/__ide_wait_stat() when needed.

* Switch ide_driveid_update() to set irq_ctx flag.

This change is needed for the consecutive patch which fixes races in
handling of user-space SET XFER commands but for improved bisectability
and clarity it is better to do it in a separate patch.

4bfc44958e mm: make set_mempolicy(MPOL_INTERLEAV) N_HIGH_MEMORY aware
At first, init_task's mems_allowed is initialized as this.
 init_task->mems_allowed == node_state[N_POSSIBLE]

And cpuset's top_cpuset mask is initialized as this
 top_cpuset->mems_allowed = node_state[N_HIGH_MEMORY]

Before 2.6.29:
policy's mems_allowed is initialized as this.

  1. update tasks->mems_allowed by its cpuset->mems_allowed.
  2. policy->mems_allowed = nodes_and(tasks->mems_allowed, user's mask)

Updating task's mems_allowed in reference to top_cpuset's one.
cpuset's mems_allowed is aware of N_HIGH_MEMORY, always.

In 2.6.30: After commit 58568d2a82
("cpuset,mm: update tasks' mems_allowed in time"), policy's mems_allowed
is initialized as this.

  1. policy->mems_allowd = nodes_and(task->mems_allowed, user's mask)

Here, if task is in top_cpuset, task->mems_allowed is not updated from
init's one.  Assume user excutes command as #numactrl --interleave=all
,....

  policy->mems_allowd = nodes_and(N_POSSIBLE, ALL_SET_MASK)

Then, policy's mems_allowd can includes a possible node, which has no pgdat.

MPOL's INTERLEAVE just scans nodemask of task->mems_allowd and access this
directly.

  NODE_DATA(nid)->zonelist even if NODE_DATA(nid)==NULL

Then, what's we need is making policy->mems_allowed be aware of
N_HIGH_MEMORY.  This patch does that.  But to do so, extra nodemask will
be on statck.  Because I know cpumask has a new interface of
CPUMASK_ALLOC(), I added it to node.

This patch stands on old behavior.  But I feel this fix itself is just a
Band-Aid.  But to do fundametal fix, we have to take care of memory
hotplug and it takes time.  (task->mems_allowd should be N_HIGH_MEMORY, I
think.)

mpol_set_nodemask() should be aware of N_HIGH_MEMORY and policy's nodemask
should be includes only online nodes.

In old behavior, this is guaranteed by frequent reference to cpuset's
code.  Now, most of them are removed and mempolicy has to check it by
itself.

To do check, a few nodemask_t will be used for calculating nodemask.  But,
size of nodemask_t can be big and it's not good to allocate them on stack.

Now, cpumask_t has CPUMASK_ALLOC/FREE an easy code for get scratch area.
NODEMASK_ALLOC/FREE shoudl be there.

2e00c97e2c vfs: add __destroy_inode
When we want to tear down an inode that lost the add to the cache race
in XFS we must not call into ->destroy_inode because that would delete
the inode that won the race from the inode cache radix tree.

This patch provides the __destroy_inode helper needed to fix this,
the actual fix will be in th next patch.  As XFS was the only reason
destroy_inode was exported we shift the export to the new __destroy_inode.

54e346215e vfs: fix inode_init_always calling convention
Currently inode_init_always calls into ->destroy_inode if the additional
initialization fails.  That's not only counter-intuitive because
inode_init_always did not allocate the inode structure, but in case of
XFS it's actively harmful as ->destroy_inode might delete the inode from
a radix-tree that has never been added.  This in turn might end up
deleting the inode for the same inum that has been instanciated by
another process and cause lots of cause subtile problems.

Also in the case of re-initializing a reclaimable inode in XFS it would
free an inode we still want to keep alive.

a2551df7ec Security/SELinux: seperate lsm specific mmap_min_addr
Currently SELinux enforcement of controls on the ability to map low memory
is determined by the mmap_min_addr tunable.  This patch causes SELinux to
ignore the tunable and instead use a seperate Kconfig option specific to how
much space the LSM should protect.

The tunable will now only control the need for CAP_SYS_RAWIO and SELinux
permissions will always protect the amount of low memory designated by
CONFIG_LSM_MMAP_MIN_ADDR.

This allows users who need to disable the mmap_min_addr controls (usual reason
being they run WINE as a non-root user) to do so and still have SELinux
controls preventing confined domains (like a web server) from being able to
map some area of low memory.

18eac1cc10 tty-ldisc: make refcount be atomic_t 'users' count
This is pure preparation of changing the ldisc reference counting to be
a true refcount that defines the lifetime of the ldisc.  But this is a
purely syntactic change for now to make the next steps easier.

This patch should make no semantic changes at all. But I wanted to make
the ldisc refcount be an atomic (I will be touching it without locks
soon enough), and I wanted to rename it so that there isn't quite as
much confusion between 'ldo->refcount' (ldisk operations refcount) and
'ld->refcount' (ldisc refcount itself) in the same file.

So it's now an atomic 'ld->users' count. It still starts at zero,
despite having a reference from 'tty->ldisc', but that will change once
we turn it into a _real_ refcount.

 - Simplify the define

 - Document the method a bit - in the hope of more architectures

e351b660fd lockdep: Reintroduce generation count to make BFS faster
We still can apply DaveM's generation count optimization to
BFS, based on the following idea:

 - before doing each BFS, increase the global generation id
   by 1

 - if one node in the graph has been visited, mark it as
   visited by storing the current global generation id into
   the node's dep_gen_id field

 - so we can decide if one node has been visited already, by
   comparing the node's dep_gen_id with the global generation id.

By applying DaveM's generation count optimization to current
implementation of BFS, we gain the following advantages:

 - we save MAX_LOCKDEP_ENTRIES/8 bytes memory;

 - we remove the bitmap_zero(bfs_accessed, MAX_LOCKDEP_ENTRIES);
   in each BFS, which is very time-consuming since
   MAX_LOCKDEP_ENTRIES may be very large.(16384UL)

bb97a91e25 lockdep: Deal with many similar locks
spin_lock_nest_lock() allows to take many instances of the same
class, this can easily lead to overflow of MAX_LOCK_DEPTH.

To avoid this overflow, we'll stop accounting instances but
start reference counting the class in the held_lock structure.

[ We could maintain a list of instances, if we'd move the hlock
  stuff into __lock_acquired(), but that would require
  significant modifications to the current code. ]

We restrict this mode to spin_lock_nest_lock() only, because it
degrades the lockdep quality due to lost of instance.

For lockstat this means we don't track lock statistics for any
but the first lock in the series.

Currently nesting is limited to 11 bits because that was the
spare space available in held_lock. This yields a 2048
instances maximium.

3f029d3c6d sched: Enhance the pre/post scheduling logic
We currently have an explicit "needs_post" vtable method which
returns a stack variable for whether we should later run
post-schedule.  This leads to an awkward exchange of the
variable as it bubbles back up out of the context switch. Peter
Zijlstra observed that this information could be stored in the
run-queue itself instead of handled on the stack.

Therefore, we revert to the method of having context_switch
return void, and update an internal rq->post_schedule variable
when we require further processing.

In addition, we fix a race condition where we try to access
current->sched_class without holding the rq->lock.  This is
technically racy, as the sched-class could change out from
under us.  Instead, we reference the per-rq post_schedule
variable with the runqueue unlocked, but with preemption
disabled to see if we need to reacquire the rq->lock.

Finally, we clean the code up slightly by removing the #ifdef
CONFIG_SMP conditionals from the schedule() call, and implement
some inline helper functions instead.

This patch passes checkpatch, and rt-migrate.

716a42348c sched: Fix cond_resched_lock() in !CONFIG_PREEMPT
The might_sleep() test inside cond_resched_lock() assumes the
spinlock is held and then preemption is disabled. This is true
with CONFIG_PREEMPT but the preempt_count() doesn't change
otherwise.

Check by starting from the appropriate preempt offset depending
on the config.

9f498cc5be perf_counter: Full task tracing
In order to be able to distinguish between no samples due to
inactivity and no samples due to task ended, Arjan asked for
PERF_EVENT_EXIT events. This is useful to the boot delay
instrumentation (bootchart) app.

This patch changes the PERF_EVENT_FORK to be emitted on every
clone, and adds PERF_EVENT_EXIT to be emitted on task exit,
after the task's counters have been closed.

This task tracing is controlled through: attr.comm || attr.mmap
and through the new attr.task field.
