task IO accounting: provide distinct tgid/tid I/O statistics
Report per-thread I/O statistics in /proc/pid/task/tid/io and aggregate
parent I/O statistics in /proc/pid/io. This approach follows the same
model used to account per-process and per-thread CPU times.
As a practial application, this allows for example to quickly find the top
I/O consumer when a process spawns many child threads that perform the
actual I/O work, because the aggregated I/O statistics can always be found
in /proc/pid/io.
[ Oleg Nesterov points out that we should check that the task is still
alive before we iterate over the threads, but also says that we can do
that fixup on top of this later. - Linus ]

bsdacct: rename acct_gbls to bsd_acct_struct
After I fixed access to task->tgid in kernel/acct.c, Oleg pointed out some
bad side effects with this accounting vs pid namespaces interaction. I.e.
when some task in pid namespace sets this accounting up, this blocks all
the others from doing the same. Restricting this to init namespace only
could help, but didn't look a graceful solution.
So here is the approach to make this accounting work with pid namespaces
properly.
The idea is simple - when a task dies it accounts itself in each namespace
it is visible from and which set the accounting up.
For example here are the commands run and the output of lastcomm from init
and sub namespaces:
init_ns# accton pacct
sub_ns# accton pacct (this is a different file - sub ns is run in
a chroot-ed environment)
init_ns# cat /dev/null
sub_ns# ls /dev/null
init_ns# accton
sub_ns# accton
sub_ns# lastcomm -f pacct
ls 0 [136,0] 0.00 secs Thu May 15 10:30
accton 0 [136,0] 0.00 secs Thu May 15 10:30
init_ns# lastcomm -f pacct
accton root pts/0 0.00 secs Thu May 15 14:30 << got from sub
cat root pts/1 0.00 secs Thu May 15 14:30
ls root pts/0 0.00 secs Thu May 15 14:30 << got from sub
accton root pts/1 0.00 secs Thu May 15 14:30
That was the summary, the details are in patches.
This patch:
It will be visible in pid_namespace.h file, so fix its name to look better
outside the acct.c file.

ipc: do not use a negative value to re-enable msgmni automatic recomputing
This patch proposes an alternative to the "magical
positive-versus-negative number trick" Andrew complained about last week
in http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/6/24/418.
This had been introduced with the patches that scale msgmni to the amount
of lowmem. With these patches, msgmni has a registered notification
routine that recomputes msgmni value upon memory add/remove or ipc
namespace creation/ removal.
When msgmni is changed from user space (i.e. value written to the proc
file), that notification routine is unregistered, and the way to make it
registered back is to write a negative value into the proc file. This is
the "magical positive-versus-negative number trick".
To fix this, a new proc file is introduced: /proc/sys/kernel/auto_msgmni.
This file acts as ON/OFF for msgmni automatic recomputing.
With this patch, the process is the following:
1) kernel boots in "automatic recomputing mode"
/proc/sys/kernel/msgmni contains the value that has been computed (depends
on lowmem)
/proc/sys/kernel/automatic_msgmni contains "1"
2) echo <val> > /proc/sys/kernel/msgmni
. sets msg_ctlmni to <val>
. de-activates automatic recomputing (i.e. if, say, some memory is added
msgmni won't be recomputed anymore)
. /proc/sys/kernel/automatic_msgmni now contains "0"
3) echo "0" > /proc/sys/kernel/automatic_msgmni
. de-activates msgmni automatic recomputing
this has the same effect as 2) except that msg_ctlmni's value stays
blocked at its current value)
3) echo "1" > /proc/sys/kernel/automatic_msgmni
. recomputes msgmni's value based on the current available memory size
and number of ipc namespaces
. re-activates automatic recomputing for msgmni.

The attached patch:
- reverses the locking order of ulp->lock and sem_lock:
Previously, it was first ulp->lock, then inside sem_lock.
Now it's the other way around.
- converts the undo structure to rcu.
Benefits:
- With the old locking order, IPC_RMID could not kfree the undo structures.
The stale entries remained in the linked lists and were released later.
- The patch fixes a a race in semtimedop(): if both IPC_RMID and a semget() that
recreates exactly the same id happen between find_alloc_undo() and sem_lock,
then semtimedop() would access already kfree'd memory.

idr: change the idr structure
After scalability problems have been detected when using the sysV ipcs, I have
proposed to use an RCU based implementation of the IDR api instead (see
threads http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/4/11/212 and
http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/4/29/295).
This resulted in many people asking to convert the idr API and make it rcu
safe (because most of the code was duplicated and thus unmaintanable and
unreviewable).
So here is a first attempt.
The important change wrt to the idr API itself is during idr removes: idr
layers are freed after a grace period, instead of being moved to the free
list.
The important change wrt to ipcs, is that idr_find() can now be called
locklessly inside a rcu read critical section.
Here are the results I've got for the pmsg test sent by Manfred:

until the driver is loaded in the kdump kernel. Calgary is initialized
prior to aacraid and creation of new tce tables causes wrong dma's to

workqueues: do CPU_UP_CANCELED if CPU_UP_PREPARE fails
The bug was pointed out by Akinobu Mita <akinobu.mita@gmail.com>, and this
patch is based on his original patch.
workqueue_cpu_callback(CPU_UP_PREPARE) expects that if it returns
NOTIFY_BAD, _cpu_up() will send CPU_UP_CANCELED then.
However, this is not true since
"cpu hotplug: cpu: deliver CPU_UP_CANCELED only to NOTIFY_OKed callbacks with CPU_UP_PREPARE"
commit:
a0d8cdb652d35af9319a9e0fb7134de2a276c636
The callback which has returned NOTIFY_BAD will not receive
CPU_UP_CANCELED. Change the code to fulfil the CPU_UP_CANCELED logic if
CPU_UP_PREPARE fails.

workqueues: implement flush_work()
Most of users of flush_workqueue() can be changed to use cancel_work_sync(),
but sometimes we really need to wait for the completion and cancelling is not
an option. schedule_on_each_cpu() is good example.
Add the new helper, flush_work(work), which waits for the completion of the
specific work_struct. More precisely, it "flushes" the result of of the last
queue_work() which is visible to the caller.
For example, this code
queue_work(wq, work);
/* WINDOW */
queue_work(wq, work);
flush_work(work);
doesn't necessary work "as expected". What can happen in the WINDOW above is
- wq starts the execution of work->func()
- the caller migrates to another CPU
now, after the 2nd queue_work() this work is active on the previous CPU, and
at the same time it is queued on another. In this case flush_work(work) may
return before the first work->func() completes.
It is trivial to add another helper
int flush_work_sync(struct work_struct *work)
{
return flush_work(work) || wait_on_work(work);
}
which works "more correctly", but it has to iterate over all CPUs and thus
it much slower than flush_work().
