4458f04c02 sctp: Clean up sctp checksumming code
The sctp crc32c checksum is always generated in little endian.
So, we clean up the code to treat it as little endian and remove
all the __force casts.

Suggested by Herbert Xu.

ac45f602ee net: infrastructure for hardware time stamping
The additional per-packet information (16 bytes for time stamps, 1
byte for flags) is stored for all packets in the skb_shared_info
struct. This implementation detail is hidden from users of that
information via skb_* accessor functions. A separate struct resp.
union is used for the additional information so that it can be
stored/copied easily outside of skb_shared_info.

Compared to previous implementations (reusing the tstamp field
depending on the context, optional additional structures) this
is the simplest solution. It does not extend sk_buff itself.

TX time stamping is implemented in software if the device driver
doesn't support hardware time stamping.

The new semantic for hardware/software time stamping around
ndo_start_xmit() is based on two assumptions about existing
network device drivers which don't support hardware time
stamping and know nothing about it:
 - they leave the new skb_shared_tx unmodified
 - the keep the connection to the originating socket in skb->sk
   alive, i.e., don't call skb_orphan()

Given that skb_shared_tx is new, the first assumption is safe.
The second is only true for some drivers. As a result, software
TX time stamping currently works with the bnx2 driver, but not
with the unmodified igb driver (the two drivers this patch series
was tested with).

cb9eff0978 net: new user space API for time stamping of incoming and outgoing packets
User space can request hardware and/or software time stamping.
Reporting of the result(s) via a new control message is enabled
separately for each field in the message because some of the
fields may require additional computation and thus cause overhead.
User space can tell the different kinds of time stamps apart
and choose what suits its needs.

When a TX timestamp operation is requested, the TX skb will be cloned
and the clone will be time stamped (in hardware or software) and added
to the socket error queue of the skb, if the skb has a socket
associated with it.

The actual TX timestamp will reach userspace as a RX timestamp on the
cloned packet. If timestamping is requested and no timestamping is
done in the device driver (potentially this may use hardware
timestamping), it will be done in software after the device's
start_hard_xmit routine.

a75244c3d5 timecompare: generic infrastructure to map between two time bases
Mapping from a struct timecounter to a time returned by functions like
ktime_get_real() is implemented. This is sufficient to use this code
in a network device driver which wants to support hardware time
stamping and transformation of hardware time stamps to system time.

The interface could have been made more versatile by not depending on
a time counter, but this wasn't done to avoid writing glue code
elsewhere.

The method implemented here is the one used and analyzed under the name
"assisted PTP" in the LCI PTP paper:

a038a353c3 clocksource: allow usage independent of timekeeping.c
So far struct clocksource acted as the interface between time/timekeeping.c
and hardware. This patch generalizes the concept so that a similar
interface can also be used in other contexts. For that it introduces
new structures and related functions *without* touching the existing
struct clocksource.

The reasons for adding these new structures to clocksource.[ch] are
* the APIs are clearly related
* struct clocksource could be cleaned up to use the new structs
* avoids proliferation of files with similar names (timesource.h?
  timecounter.h?)

As outlined in the discussion with John Stultz, this patch adds
* struct cyclecounter: stateless API to hardware which counts clock cycles
* struct timecounter: stateful utility code built on a cyclecounter which
  provides a nanosecond counter
* only the function to read the nanosecond counter; deltas are used internally
  and not exposed to users of timecounter

The code does no locking of the shared state. It must be called at least
as often as the cycle counter wraps around to detect these wrap arounds.
Both is the responsibility of the timecounter user.

cf40bd16fd lockdep: annotate reclaim context (__GFP_NOFS)
Here is another version, with the incremental patch rolled up, and
added reclaim context annotation to kswapd, and allocation tracing
to slab allocators (which may only ever reach the page allocator
in rare cases, so it is good to put annotations here too).

Haven't tested this version as such, but it should be getting closer
to merge worthy ;)

--
After noticing some code in mm/filemap.c accidentally perform a __GFP_FS
allocation when it should not have been, I thought it might be a good idea to
try to catch this kind of thing with lockdep.

I coded up a little idea that seems to work. Unfortunately the system has to
actually be in __GFP_FS page reclaim, then take the lock, before it will mark
it. But at least that might still be some orders of magnitude more common
(and more debuggable) than an actual deadlock condition, so we have some
improvement I hope (the concept is no less complete than discovery of a lock's
interrupt contexts).

I guess we could even do the same thing with __GFP_IO (normal reclaim), and
even GFP_NOIO locks too... but filesystems will have the most locks and fiddly
code paths, so let's start there and see how it goes.

It *seems* to work. I did a quick test.

2a7b8df04c sched: do not account for NMIs
Impact: avoid corruption in system time accounting

Martin Schwidefsky told me that there was an issue with NMIs and
system accounting. The problem is that the accounting code is
not reentrant, and if an NMI goes off after an interrupt it can
corrupt the accounting.

For now, the best we can do is to treat NMIs like SMIs and they
are not accounted for.

This patch changes nmi_enter to not call __irq_enter and to do
the preempt-count and tracing calls directly.

5a5fb7dbe8 preempt-count: force hardirq-count to max of 10
To add a bit in the preempt_count to be set when in NMI context, we
found that some archs did not have enough bits to spare. This is
due to the hardirq_count being a mask that can hold NR_IRQS.

Some archs allow for over 16000 IRQs, and that would require a mask
of 14 bits. The sofitrq mask is 8 bits and the preempt disable mask
is also 8 bits.  The PREEMP_ACTIVE bit is bit 30, and bit 31 would
make the preempt_count (which is type int) a negative number.
A negative preempt_count is a sign of failure.

Add them up 14+8+8+1+1 you get 32 bits. No room for the NMI bit.

But the hardirq_count is to track the number of nested IRQs, not
the number of total IRQs.  This originally took the paranoid approach
of setting the max nesting to NR_IRQS. But when we have archs with
over 1000 IRQs, it is not practical to think they will ever all
nest on a single CPU. Not to mention that this would most definitely
cause a stack overflow.

This patch sets a max of 10 bits to be used for IRQ nesting.
I did a 'git grep HARDIRQ' to examine all users of HARDIRQ_BITS and
HARDIRQ_MASK, and found that making it a max of 10 would not hurt
anyone. I did find that the m68k expected it to be 8 bits, so
I allow for the archs to set the number to be less than 10.

I removed the setting of HARDIRQ_BITS from the archs that set it
to more than 10. This includes ALPHA, ia64 and avr32.

This will always allow room for the NMI bit, and if we need to allow
for NMI nesting, we have 4 bits to play with.

-Dsigprocmask=kernel_sigprocmask to gcc when compiling the kernel.
This causes SYSCALL_DEFINE3(sigprocmask, ...) to be expanded to
SYSCALL_DEFINEx(3, kernel_sigprocmask, ...) and finally to a system
call named sys_kernel_sigprocmask.  However sys_sigprocmask is missing
because of this.

To avoid macro expansion for the system call name just concatenate the
name at first define instead of carrying it through severel levels.
This was pointed out by Al Viro.

cfebe563bd cgroups: fix lockdep subclasses overflow
I enabled all cgroup subsystems when compiling kernel, and then:
 # mount -t cgroup -o net_cls xxx /mnt
 # mkdir /mnt/0

This showed up immediately:
 BUG: MAX_LOCKDEP_SUBCLASSES too low!
 turning off the locking correctness validator.

It's caused by the cgroup hierarchy lock:
	for (i = 0; i < CGROUP_SUBSYS_COUNT; i++) {
		struct cgroup_subsys *ss = subsys[i];
		if (ss->root == root)
			mutex_lock_nested(&ss->hierarchy_mutex, i);
	}

Now we have 9 cgroup subsystems, and the above 'i' for net_cls is 8, but
MAX_LOCKDEP_SUBCLASSES is 8.

This patch uses different lockdep keys for different subsystems.

9f339e7028 x86, ptrace, mm: fix double-free on race
Ptrace_detach() races with __ptrace_unlink() if the traced task is
reaped while detaching. This might cause a double-free of the BTS
buffer.

Change the ptrace_detach() path to only do the memory accounting in
ptrace_bts_detach() and leave the buffer free to ptrace_bts_untrace()
which will be called from __ptrace_unlink().

The fix follows a proposal from Oleg Nesterov.

4da94d49b2 timers: fix TIMER_ABSTIME for process wide cpu timers
The POSIX timer interface allows for absolute time expiry values through the
TIMER_ABSTIME flag, therefore we have to synchronize the timer to the clock
every time we start it.

3fccfd67df timers: split process wide cpu clocks/timers, fix
To decrease the chance of a missed enable, always enable the timer when we
sample it, we'll always disable it when we find that there are no active timers
in the jiffy tick.

This fixes a flood of warnings reported by Mike Galbraith.

ad0b0fd554 sched, latencytop: incorporate review feedback from Andrew Morton
Andrew had some suggestions for the latencytop file; this patch takes care
of most of these:

* Add documentation
* Turn account_scheduler_latency into an inline function
* Don't report negative values to userspace
* Make the file operations struct const
* Fix a few checkpatch.pl warnings

Based on comments from Mike Frysinger and Randy Dunlap:
(http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/2/9/262)
- moved ima.h include before CONFIG_SHMEM test to fix compiler error
  on Blackfin:
mm/shmem.c: In function 'shmem_zero_setup':
mm/shmem.c:2670: error: implicit declaration of function 'ima_shm_check'

- added 'struct linux_binprm' in ima.h to fix compiler warning on Blackfin:
In file included from mm/shmem.c:32:
include/linux/ima.h:25: warning: 'struct linux_binprm' declared inside
parameter list
include/linux/ima.h:25: warning: its scope is only this definition or
declaration, which is probably not what you want

- moved fs.h include within _LINUX_IMA_H definition
