      sched: Fix fork vs hotplug vs cpuset namespaces · fabf318e
      Peter Zijlstra authored 
      There are a number of issues:

1) TASK_WAKING vs cgroup_clone (cpusets)

copy_process():

  sched_fork()
    child->state = TASK_WAKING; /* waiting for wake_up_new_task() */
  if (current->nsproxy != p->nsproxy)
     ns_cgroup_clone()
       cgroup_clone()
         mutex_lock(inode->i_mutex)
         mutex_lock(cgroup_mutex)
         cgroup_attach_task()
	   ss->can_attach()
           ss->attach() [ -> cpuset_attach() ]
             cpuset_attach_task()
               set_cpus_allowed_ptr();
                 while (child->state == TASK_WAKING)
                   cpu_relax();
will deadlock the system.


2) cgroup_clone (cpusets) vs copy_process

So even if the above would work we still have:

copy_process():

  if (current->nsproxy != p->nsproxy)
     ns_cgroup_clone()
       cgroup_clone()
         mutex_lock(inode->i_mutex)
         mutex_lock(cgroup_mutex)
         cgroup_attach_task()
	   ss->can_attach()
           ss->attach() [ -> cpuset_attach() ]
             cpuset_attach_task()
               set_cpus_allowed_ptr();
  ...

  p->cpus_allowed = current->cpus_allowed

over-writing the modified cpus_allowed.


3) fork() vs hotplug

  if we unplug the child's cpu after the sanity check when the child
  gets attached to the task_list but before wake_up_new_task() shit
  will meet with fan.

Solve all these issues by moving fork cpu selection into
wake_up_new_task().

      sched: Reassign prev and switch_count when reacquire_kernel_lock() fail · 6d558c3a
      Yong Zhang authored 
      Assume A->B schedule is processing, if B have acquired BKL before and it
need reschedule this time. Then on B's context, it will go to
need_resched_nonpreemptible for reschedule. But at this time, prev and
switch_count are related to A. It's wrong and will lead to incorrect
scheduler statistics.

      sched: Fix vmark regression on big machines · 50b926e4
      Mike Galbraith authored 
      SD_PREFER_SIBLING is set at the CPU domain level if power saving isn't
enabled, leading to many cache misses on large machines as we traverse
looking for an idle shared cache to wake to.  Change the enabler of
select_idle_sibling() to SD_SHARE_PKG_RESOURCES, and enable same at the
sibling domain level.

      modpost: fix segfault in sym_is() with prefixed arches · 3a5dd791
      Mike Frysinger authored 
      The sym_is() compares a symbol in an attempt to automatically skip symbol
prefixes.  It does this first by searching the real symbol with the normal
unprefixed symbol.  But then it uses the length of the original symbol to
check the end of the substring instead of the length of the symbol it is
looking for.  On non-prefixed arches, this is effectively the same thing,
so there is no problem.  On prefixed-arches, since this is exceeds by just
one byte, a crash is rare and it is usually a NUL byte anyways.  But every
once in a blue moon, you get the right page alignment and it segfaults.

For example, on the Blackfin arch, sym_is() will be called with the real
symbol "___mod_usb_device_table" as "symbol" when looking for the normal
symbol "__mod_usb_device_table" as "name".  The substring will thus return
one byte into "symbol" and store it into "match".  But then "match" will
be indexed with the length of "symbol" instead of "name" and so we will
exceed the storage.  i.e. the code ends up doing:
	char foo[] = "abc"; return foo[strlen(foo)+1] == '\0';
