With exclusive waiters, every process woken up through the wait queue must
ensure that the next waiter down the line is woken when it has finished.
Interruptible waiters don't do that when aborting due to a signal. And if
an aborting waiter is concurrently woken up through the waitqueue, noone
will ever wake up the next waiter.
This has been observed with __wait_on_bit_lock() used by
lock_page_killable(): the first contender on the queue was aborting when
the actual lock holder woke it up concurrently. The aborted contender
didn't acquire the lock and therefor never did an unlock followed by
waking up the next waiter.
Add abort_exclusive_wait() which removes the process' wait descriptor from
the waitqueue, iff still queued, or wakes up the next waiter otherwise.
It does so under the waitqueue lock. Racing with a wake up means the
aborting process is either already woken (removed from the queue) and will
wake up the next waiter, or it will remove itself from the queue and the
concurrent wake up will apply to the next waiter after it.
Use abort_exclusive_wait() in __wait_event_interruptible_exclusive() and
__wait_on_bit_lock() when they were interrupted by other means than a wake
up through the queue.

Revert commit 0c2d64fb6c because it causes
(arguably poorly designed) existing userspace to spend interminable
periods closing billions of not-open file descriptors.
We could bring this back, with some sort of opt-in tunable in /proc, which
defaults to "off".
Peter's alanysis follows:
: I spent several hours trying to get to the bottom of a serious
: performance issue that appeared on one of our servers after upgrading to
: 2.6.28. In the end it's what could be considered a userspace bug that
: was triggered by a change in 2.6.28. Since this might also affect other
: people I figured I'd at least document what I found here, and maybe we
: can even do something about it:
:
:
: So, I upgraded some of debian.org's machines to 2.6.28.1 and immediately
: the team maintaining our ftp archive complained that one of their
: scripts that previously ran in a few minutes still hadn't even come
: close to being done after an hour or so. Downgrading to 2.6.27 fixed
: that.
:
: Turns out that script is forking a lot and something in it or python or
: whereever closes all the file descriptors it doesn't want to pass on.
: That is, it starts at zero and goes up to ulimit -n/RLIMIT_NOFILE and
: closes them all with a few exceptions.
:
: Turns out that takes a long time when your limit -n is now 2^20 (1048576).
:
: With 2.6.27.* the ulimit -n was the standard 1024, but with 2.6.28 it is
: now a thousand times that.
:
: 2.6.28 included a patch titled "rlimit: permit setting RLIMIT_NOFILE to
: RLIM_INFINITY" (0c2d64fb6c)[1] that
: allows, as the title implies, to set the limit for number of files to
: infinity.
:
: Closer investigation showed that the broken default ulimit did not apply
: to "system" processes (like stuff started from init). In the end I
: could establish that all processes that passed through pam_limit at one
: point had the bad resource limit.
:
: Apparently the pam library in Debian etch (4.0) initializes the limits
: to some default values when it doesn't have any settings in limit.conf
: to override them. Turns out that for nofiles this is RLIM_INFINITY.
: Commenting out "case RLIMIT_NOFILE" in pam_limit.c:267 of our pam
: package version 0.79-5 fixes that - tho I'm not sure what side effects
: that has.
:
: Debian lenny (the upcoming 5.0 version) doesn't have this issue as it
: uses a different pam (version).

shm_get_stat() assumes that the inode is a "struct shmem_inode_info",
which is incorrect for !CONFIG_SHMEM (see fs/ramfs/inode.c:
ramfs_get_inode() vs. mm/shmem.c: shmem_get_inode()).
This bad assumption can cause shmctl(SHM_INFO) to lockup when
shm_get_stat() tries to spin_lock(&info->lock). Users of !CONFIG_SHMEM
may encounter this lockup simply by invoking the 'ipcs' command.

Change the process wide cpu timers/clocks so that we:
1) don't mess up the kernel with too many threads,
2) don't have a per-cpu allocation for each process,
3) have no impact when not used.
In order to accomplish this we're going to split it into two parts:
- clocks; which can take all the time they want since they run
from user context -- ie. sys_clock_gettime(CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID)
- timers; which need constant time sampling but since they're
explicity used, the user can pay the overhead.
The clock readout will go back to a full sum of the thread group, while the
timers will run of a global 'clock' that only runs when needed, so only
programs that make use of the facility pay the price.

The clock readout will go back to a full sum of the thread group, for this
we need to re-add the exit stats that were removed in the initial itimer
rework (f06febc9: timers: fix itimer/many thread hang).
Furthermore, since that full sum can be rather slow for large thread groups
and we have the complete dead task stats, revert the do_notify_parent time

On an x86 system which doesn't support global mappings,
__supported_pte_mask has _PAGE_GLOBAL clear, to make sure it never
appears in the PTE. pfn_pte() and so on will enforce it with:
static inline pte_t pfn_pte(unsigned long page_nr, pgprot_t pgprot)
{
return __pte((((phys_addr_t)page_nr << PAGE_SHIFT) |
pgprot_val(pgprot)) & __supported_pte_mask);
}
However, we overload _PAGE_GLOBAL with _PAGE_PROTNONE on non-present
ptes to distinguish them from swap entries. However, applying
__supported_pte_mask indiscriminately will clear the bit and corrupt the
pte.
I guess the best fix is to only apply __supported_pte_mask to present
ptes. This seems like the right solution to me, as it means we can
completely ignore the issue of overlaps between the present pte bits and
the non-present pte-as-swap entry use of the bits.
__supported_pte_mask contains the set of flags we support on the
current hardware. We also use bits in the pte for things like
logically present ptes with no permissions, and swap entries for
swapped out pages. We should only apply __supported_pte_mask to
present ptes, because otherwise we may destroy other information being
stored in the ptes.

Currently, the PM core always attempts to manage devices with drivers
that use the new PM framework. In particular, it attempts to disable
the devices (which is unnecessary), to save their state (which may be
undesirable if the driver has done that already) and to put them into
low power states (again, this may be undesirable if the driver has
already put the device into a low power state). That need not be
the right thing to do, so make the core be more careful in this
respect.
Generally, there are the following categories of devices to consider:
* bridge devices without drivers
* non-bridge devices without drivers
* bridge devices with drivers
* non-bridge devices with drivers
and each of them should be handled differently.
For bridge devices without drivers the PCI PM core will save their
state on suspend and restore it (early) during resume, after putting
them into D0 if necessary. It will not attempt to do anything else
to these devices.
For non-bridge devices without drivers the PCI PM core will disable
them and save their state on suspend. During resume, it will put
them into D0, if necessary, restore their state (early) and reenable
them.
For bridge devices with drivers the PCI PM core will only save
their state on suspend if the driver hasn't done that already.
Still, the core will restore their state (early) during resume,
after putting them into D0, if necessary.
For non-bridge devices with drivers the PCI PM core will only save
their state on suspend if the driver hasn't done that already. Also,
if the state of the device hasn't been saved by the driver, the core
will attempt to put the device into a low power state. During
resume the core will restore the state of the device (early), after
putting it into D0, if necessary.

We only want to disable ASPM when the last function is removed from
the parent's device list. We determine this by checking to see if
the parent's device list is completely empty.
Unfortunately, we never hit that code because the parent is considered
an upstream port, and never had an ASPM link_state associated with it.
The early check for !link_state causes us to return early, we never
discover that our device list is empty, and thus we never remove the
downstream ports' link_state nodes.
Instead of checking to see if the parent's device list is empty, we can
check to see if we are the last device on the list, and if so, then we
know that we can clean up properly.

There's a small problem with hpet_rtc_reinit function - it checks
for the:
hpet_readl(HPET_COUNTER) - hpet_t1_cmp > 0
to continue increasing both the HPET_T1_CMP (register) and the
hpet_t1_cmp (variable).
But since the HPET_COUNTER is always 32-bit, if the hpet_t1_cmp
is 64-bit this condition will always be FALSE once the latter hits
the 32-bit boundary, and we can have a situation, when we don't
increase the HPET_T1_CMP register high enough.
The result - timer stops ticking, since HPET_T1_CMP becomes less,
than the COUNTER and never increased again.
The solution is (based on Linus's suggestion) to not compare 64-bits
(on 64-bit x86), but to do the comparison on 32-bit signed
integers.
