30842f2989 udp: Wrong locking code in udp seq_file infrastructure

003086497f Build with -fno-dwarf2-cfi-asm
With a sufficiently new compiler and binutils, code which wasn't
previously generating .eh_frame sections has begun to.  Certain
architectures (powerpc, in this case) may generate unexpected relocation
formats in response to this, preventing modules from loading.

While the new relocation types should probably be handled, revert to the
previous behaviour with regards to generation of .eh_frame sections.

(This was reported against Fedora, which appears to be the only distro
doing any building against gcc-4.4 at present: RH bz#486545.)

37bebc70d7 posix timers: fix RLIMIT_CPU && fork()
See http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12911

copy_signal() copies signal->rlim, but RLIMIT_CPU is "lost". Because
posix_cpu_timers_init_group() sets cputime_expires.prof_exp = 0 and thus
fastpath_timer_check() returns false unless we have other cpu timers.

This is the minimal fix for 2.6.29 (tested) and 2.6.28. The patch is not
optimal, we need further cleanups here. With this patch update_rlimit_cpu()
is not really needed, but I don't think it should be removed.

The proper fix (I think) is:

	- set_process_cpu_timer() should just start the cputimer->running
	  logic (it does), no need to change cputime_expires.xxx_exp

	- posix_cpu_timers_init_group() should set ->running when needed

	- fastpath_timer_check() can check ->running instead of
	  task_cputime_zero(signal->cputime_expires)

53da1d9456 fix ptrace slowness
This patch fixes bug #12208:

  Bug-Entry       : http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12208
  Subject         : uml is very slow on 2.6.28 host

This turned out to be not a scheduler regression, but an already
existing problem in ptrace being triggered by subtle scheduler
changes.

The problem is this:

 - task A is ptracing task B
 - task B stops on a trace event
 - task A is woken up and preempts task B
 - task A calls ptrace on task B, which does ptrace_check_attach()
 - this calls wait_task_inactive(), which sees that task B is still on the runq
 - task A goes to sleep for a jiffy
 - ...

Since UML does lots of the above sequences, those jiffies quickly add
up to make it slow as hell.

This patch solves this by not rescheduling in read_unlock() after
ptrace_stop() has woken up the tracer.

Thanks to Oleg Nesterov and Ingo Molnar for the feedback.

c8608d6b58 x86/dmi: fix dmi_alloc() section mismatches

Ingo reports these warnings:

> the function dmi_alloc() to the function .init.text:extend_brk()
> The function dmi_alloc() references

> This is often because dmi_alloc lacks a __init annotation or the
> annotation of extend_brk is wrong.

dmi_alloc() is a static inline, and so should be immune to this
kind of error.  But force it to be inlined and make it __init
anyway, just to be extra sure.

All of dmi_alloc()'s callers are already __init.

3e1f60b80c tracing/ftrace: check if debugfs is registered before creating files
Impact: fix a crash with ftrace={nop,boot} parameter

If the nop or initcall tracers are launched as boot tracers,
they will attempt to create their option directory and files.
But these tracers are registered very early and then assigned
as "boot tracers" very early if asked to.

Since they do this before debugfs has been registered (core initcall),
a crash is triggered.

Another early tracers could also come later. So we fix it by
checking if debugfs is initialized before creating the root
tracing directory.

c0f92ba99b debugfs: function to know if debugfs is initialized
Impact: add new debugfs API

With ftrace, some tracers are registered in early initcalls
and attempt to create files on the debugfs filesystem.
Depending on when they are activated, they can try to create their
file at any time. Some checks can be done on the tracing area
but providing a helper to know if debugfs is registered make it
really more easy.

This patchs adds support of modification of the used logger via sysctl.
It can be used to change the logger to module that can not use the bind
operation (ipt_LOG and ipt_ULOG). For this purpose, it creates a
directory /proc/sys/net/netfilter/nf_log which contains a file
per-protocol. The content of the file is the name current logger (NONE if
not set) and a logger can be setup by simply echoing its name to the file.
By echoing "NONE" to a /proc/sys/net/netfilter/nf_log/PROTO file, the
logger corresponding to this PROTO is set to NULL.

c4cff064be tracing/filters: clean up filter_add_subsystem_pred()
Impact: cleanup, memory leak fix

This patch cleans up filter_add_subsystem_pred():

- searches for the field before creating a copy of the pred

- fixes memory leak in the case a predicate isn't applied

- if -ENOMEM, makes sure there's no longer a reference to the
  pred so the caller can free the half-finished filter

- changes the confusing i == MAX_FILTER_PRED - 1 comparison
  previously remarked upon

This affects only per-subsystem event filtering.

ee6cdabc82 tracing/filters: fix bug in copy_pred()
Impact: fix potential crash on subsystem filter expression freeing

When making a copy of the predicate, pred->field_name needs to be
duplicated in the copy as well, otherwise bad things can happen due to
later multiple frees of the same string.

This affects only per-subsystem event filtering.

b118415bfa tracing/events: don't discard an event after commit
When we want to filter an event, the filter test is done after
the event is commited to the ring-buffer to be discarded later if
needed.

But a reader could be reading this event while we are trying to discard
it. Other kind of racy events can even happen because the event is
commited and can be read and/or consumed.

What we want is to discard the event before committing it.

7e6ea92df3 tracing/ftrace: make nop-tracer use polling wait for events on pipe
Impact: display events when they arrive

Now that the events don't use wake_up() anymore, we need the nop
tracer to poll waiting for events on the pipe. Especially because
nop is useful to look at orphan traces types (traces types that
don't rely on specific tracers) because it doesn't produce traces
itself.

And unlike other tracers that trigger specific traces periodically,
nop triggers no traces by itself that can wake him.

07edf71213 tracing/events: don't use wake up for events
Impact: fix hard-lockup with sched switch events

Some ftrace events, such as sched wakeup, can be traced
while the runqueue lock is hold. Since they are using
trace_current_buffer_unlock_commit(), they call wake_up()
which can try to grab the runqueue lock too, resulting in
a deadlock.

Now for all event, we call a new helper:
trace_nowake_buffer_unlock_commit() which do pretty the same than
trace_current_buffer_unlock_commit() except than it doesn't call
trace_wake_up().
