2011-04-05sched: Clean up rebalance_domains() load-balance interval calculationPeter Zijlstra2-4/+15
Instead of the possible multiple-evaluation of num_online_cpus() in rebalance_domains() that Linus reported, avoid it altogether in the normal case since it's implemented with a Hamming weight function over a cpu bitmask which can be darn expensive for those with big iron. This also makes it cleaner, smaller and documents the code.

2011-04-04ntp: fix non privileged system time shiftingRichard Cochran1-0/+2
The ADJ_SETOFFSET bit added in commit 094aa188 ("ntp: Add ADJ_SETOFFSET mode bit") also introduced a way for any user to change the system time. Sneaky or buggy calls to adjtimex() could set ADJ_OFFSET_SS_READ | ADJ_SETOFFSET which would result in a successful call to timekeeping_inject_offset().

2011-03-31sched: Fix rebalance interval calculationSisir Koppaka1-2/+3
The interval for checking scheduling domains if they are due to be balanced currently depends on boot state NR_CPUS, which may not accurately reflect the number of online CPUs at the time of check. Thus replace NR_CPUS with num_online_cpus(). (ed: Should only affect those who set NR_CPUS really high, such as 4096 or so :-) Signed-off-by: Sisir Koppaka <sisir.koppaka@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> LKML-Reference: <AANLkTikqHWid2Q93F5U5Qw5snJH8C5PXoa7J6=6hYO94@mail.gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2011-03-31sched: Leave sched_setscheduler() earlier if possible, do not disturb SCHED_FIFO tasksDario Faggioli1-0/+11
sched_setscheduler() (in sched.c) is called in order of changing the scheduling policy and/or the real-time priority of a task. Thus, if we find out that neither of those are actually being modified, it is possible to return earlier and save the overhead of a full deactivate+activate cycle of the task in question. Beside that, if we have more than one SCHED_FIFO task with the same priority on the same rq (which means they share the same priority queue) having one of them changing its position in the priority queue because of a sched_setscheduler (as it happens by means of the deactivate+activate) that does not actually change the priority violates POSIX which states, for SCHED_FIFO: "If a thread whose policy or priority has been modified by pthread_setschedprio() is a running thread or is runnable, the effect on its position in the thread list depends on the direction of the modification, as follows: a. <...> b. If the priority is unchanged, the thread does not change position in the thread list. c. <...>" http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/functions/xsh_chap02_08.html (ed: And the POSIX specification here does, briefly and somewhat unexpectedly, match what common sense tells us as well. ) Signed-off-by: Dario Faggioli <raistlin@linux.it> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> LKML-Reference: <1300971618.3960.82.camel@Palantir> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2011-03-28Relax si_code check in rt_sigqueueinfo and rt_tgsigqueueinfoRoland Dreier1-2/+2
Commit da48524eb206 ("Prevent rt_sigqueueinfo and rt_tgsigqueueinfo from spoofing the signal code") made the check on si_code too strict. There are several legitimate places where glibc wants to queue a negative si_code different from SI_QUEUE: - This was first noticed with glibc's aio implementation, which wants to queue a signal with si_code SI_ASYNCIO; the current kernel causes glibc's tst-aio4 test to fail because rt_sigqueueinfo() fails with EPERM. - Further examination of the glibc source shows that getaddrinfo_a() wants to use SI_ASYNCNL (which the kernel does not even define). The timer_create() fallback code wants to queue signals with SI_TIMER. As suggested by Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com>, loosen the check to forbid only the problematic SI_TKILL case.

2011-03-24vsprintf: Introduce %pB format specifierNamhyung Kim1-3/+41
The %pB format specifier is for stack backtrace. Its handler sprint_backtrace() does symbol lookup using (address-1) to ensure the address will not point outside of the function. If there is a tail-call to the function marked "noreturn", gcc optimized out the code after the call then causes saved return address points outside of the function (i.e. the start of the next function), so pollutes call trace somewhat. This patch adds the %pB printk mechanism that allows architecture call-trace printout functions to improve backtrace printouts.
