* module: fix sysfs cleanup for !CONFIG_SYSFSRusty Russell2010-08-051-7/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | Restore the stub module_remove_modinfo_attrs, remove the now-unused !CONFIG_SYSFS module_sysfs_init. Also, rename mod_kobject_remove() to mod_sysfs_teardown() as it is the logical counterpart to mod_sysfs_setup now.

* module: layout_and_allocateRusty Russell2010-08-051-99/+125
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | layout_and_allocate() does everything up to and including the final struct module placement inside the allocated module memory. We have to store the symbol layout information in our struct load_info though. This avoids the nasty code we had before where 'mod' pointed first to the version inside the temporary allocation containing the entire file, then later was moved to point to the real struct module: now the main code only ever sees the final module address. (Includes fix for the Tony Luck-found Linus-diagnosed failure path error). Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
* module: fix crash in get_ksymbol() when oopsing in module initRusty Russell2010-08-051-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Andrew had the sole pleasure of tickling this bug in linux-next; when we set up "info->strtab" it's pointing into the temporary copy of the module. For most uses that is fine, but kallsyms keeps a pointer around during module load (inside mod->strtab). If we oops for some reason inside a module's init function, kallsyms will use the mod->strtab pointer into the now-freed temporary module copy. (Later oopses work fine: after init we overwrite mod->strtab to point to a compacted core-only strtab).

* module: add load_infoLinus Torvalds2010-08-051-103/+125
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Btw, here's a patch that _looks_ large, but it really pretty trivial, and sets things up so that it would be way easier to split off pieces of the module loading. The reason it looks large is that it creates a "module_info" structure that contains all the module state that we're building up while loading, instead of having individual variables for all the indices etc. So the patch ends up being large, because every "symindex" access instead becomes "info.index.sym" etc. That may be a few characters longer, but it then means that we can just pass a pointer to that "info" structure around. and let all the pieces fill it in very naturally. As an example of that, the patch also moves the initialization of all those convenience variables into a "setup_module_info()" function. And at this point it really does become very natural to start to peel off some of the error labels and move them into the helper functions - now the "truncated" case is gone, and is handled inside that setup function instead. So maybe you don't like this approach, and it does make the variable accesses a bit longer, but I don't think unreadably so. And the patch really does look big and scary, but there really should be absolutely no semantic changes - most of it was a trivial and mindless rename. In fact, it was so mindless that I on purpose kept the existing helper functions looking like this: - err = check_modinfo(mod, sechdrs, infoindex, versindex); + err = check_modinfo(mod, info.sechdrs, info.index.info, info.index.vers); rather than changing them to just take the "info" pointer. IOW, a second phase (if you think the approach is ok) would change that calling convention to just do err = check_modinfo(mod, &info); (and same for "layout_sections()", "layout_symtabs()" etc.) Similarly, while right now it makes things _look_ bigger, with things like this: versindex = find_sec(hdr, sechdrs, secstrings, "__versions"); becoming info->index.vers = find_sec(info->hdr, info->sechdrs, info->secstrings, "__versions"); in the new "setup_module_info()" function, that's again just a result of it being a search-and-replace patch. By using the 'info' pointer, we could just change the 'find_sec()' interface so that it ends up being info->index.vers = find_sec(info, "__versions"); instead, and then we'd actually have a shorter and more readable line. So for a lot of those mindless variable name expansions there's would be room for separate cleanups. I didn't move quite everything in there - if we do this to layout_symtabs, for example, we'd want to move the percpu, symoffs, stroffs, *strmap variables to be fields in that module_info structure too. But that's a much smaller patch, I moved just the really core stuff that is currently being set up and used in various parts. But even in this rough form, it removes close to 70 lines from that function (but adds 22 lines overall, of course - the structure definition, the helper function declarations and call-sites etc etc).

* module: reduce stack usage for each_symbol()Linus Torvalds2010-08-051-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | And now that I'm looking at that call-chain (to see if it would make sense to use some other more specific lock - doesn't look like it: all the readers are using RCU and this is the only writer), I also give you this trivial one-liner. It changes each_symbol() to not put that constant array on the stack, resulting in changing movq $C.388.31095, %rsi #, tmp85 subq $376, %rsp #, movq %rdi, %rbx # fn, fn leaq -208(%rbp), %rdi #, tmp84 movq %rbx, %rdx # fn, rep movsl xorl %esi, %esi # leaq -208(%rbp), %rdi #, tmp87 movq %r12, %rcx # data, call each_symbol_in_section.clone.0 # into xorl %esi, %esi # subq $216, %rsp #, movq %rdi, %rbx # fn, fn movq $arr.31078, %rdi #, call each_symbol_in_section.clone.0 # which is not so much about being obviously shorter and simpler because we don't unnecessarily copy that constant array around onto the stack, but also about having a much smaller stack footprint (376 vs 216 bytes - see the update of 'rsp').

| | | | | | | | | | Here's a second one. It's slightly less trivial - since we now have error cases - and equally untested so it may well be totally broken. But it also cleans up a bit more, and avoids one of the goto targets, because the "move_module()" helper now does both allocations or none.

In this case we get a division by zero in padata_alloc_pd and we end up with a useless padata instance. Padata can end up with an empty cpumask for two reasons: 1. A user removed the last cpu that belongs to the padata cpumask and the active cpumask. 2. The last cpu that belongs to the padata cpumask and the active cpumask goes offline. We introduce a function padata_validate_cpumask to check if the padata cpumask does intersect with the active cpumask. If the cpumasks do not intersect we mark the instance as invalid, so it can't be used. We do not allocate the cpumask dependend recources in this case. This fixes the division by zero and keeps the padate instance in a consistent state. It's not possible to trigger this bug by now because the only padata user, pcrypt uses always the possible cpumask.

While some are legitimate, several were not, freeing skbs that were at the end of their life, rather than being discarded due to an error. This patch converts those calls sites from using kfree_skb to consume_skb, which quiets the in-kernel drop_monitor code from detecting them as drops.

Effectively the situation is the same, we want to return a uid or gid that is not assigned to any user. - For the case when we happen to be mapping the uid or gid of the creator of the target user namespace use uid 0 and gid as confusing that user with root is not a problem.

Simply redoing the implementation in terms of a plist gets rid of a lot of this junk (although there are several other strange things that could do with tidying up, like pm_qos_request_list has to carry the pm_qos_class with every node, simply because it doesn't get passed in to pm_qos_update_request even though every caller knows full well what parameter it's updating). I think this redo is a win independent of android, so we should do something like this now.

Generally, there are two problems in that area. First, if a wakeup event occurs exactly when /sys/power/state is being written to, it may be delivered to user space right before the freezer kicks in, so the user space consumer of the event may not be able to process it before the system is suspended. Second, if a wakeup event occurs after user space has been frozen, it is not generally guaranteed that the ongoing transition of the system into a sleep state will be aborted. To address these issues introduce a new global sysfs attribute, /sys/power/wakeup_count, associated with a running counter of wakeup events and three helper functions, pm_stay_awake(), pm_relax(), and pm_wakeup_event(), that may be used by kernel subsystems to control the behavior of this attribute and to request the PM core to abort system transitions into a sleep state already in progress. The /sys/power/wakeup_count file may be read from or written to by user space. Reads will always succeed (unless interrupted by a signal) and return the current value of the wakeup events counter. Writes, however, will only succeed if the written number is equal to the current value of the wakeup events counter. If a write is successful, it will cause the kernel to save the current value of the wakeup events counter and to abort the subsequent system transition into a sleep state if any wakeup events are reported after the write has returned. [The assumption is that before writing to /sys/power/state user space will first read from /sys/power/wakeup_count. Next, user space consumers of wakeup events will have a chance to acknowledge or veto the upcoming system transition to a sleep state. Finally, if the transition is allowed to proceed, /sys/power/wakeup_count will be written to and if that succeeds, /sys/power/state will be written to as well. Still, if any wakeup events are reported to the PM core by kernel subsystems after that point, the transition will be aborted.] Additionally, put a wakeup events counter into struct dev_pm_info and make these per-device wakeup event counters available via sysfs, so that it's possible to check the activity of various wakeup event sources within the kernel. To illustrate how subsystems can use pm_wakeup_event(), make the low-level PCI runtime PM wakeup-handling code use it. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
