sched_info_depart seems to be only called from sched_info_switch(), so only on involuntary task switch. Fix the comment to match. Signed-off-by: Michael S.

2bd2d6f2 ("sched: Replace use of entity_key()") had remove the entity_key() which function is to subtract a tasks vruntime by its groups minvruntime as the rbtree key. The phrase "there is a subtraction using rq->cfs.min_vruntime to account for possible wraparounds" in documentation feels strange and meaningless. So remove it.

There is a small race between copy_process() and cgroup_attach_task() where child->se.parent,cfs_rq points to invalid (old) ones. parent doing fork() | someone moving the parent to another cgroup -------------------------------+--------------------------------------------- copy_process() + dup_task_struct() -> parent->se is copied to child->se. se.parent,cfs_rq of them point to old ones. cgroup_attach_task() + cgroup_task_migrate() -> parent->cgroup is updated. + cpu_cgroup_attach() + sched_move_task() + task_move_group_fair() +- set_task_rq() -> se.parent,cfs_rq of parent are updated. + cgroup_fork() -> parent->cgroup is copied to child->cgroup. (*1) + sched_fork() + task_fork_fair() -> se.parent,cfs_rq of child are accessed while they point to old ones. (*2) In the worst case, this bug can lead to "use-after-free" and cause a panic, because it's new cgroup's refcount that is incremented at (*1), so the old cgroup(and related data) can be freed before (*2). In fact, a panic caused by this bug was originally caught in RHEL6.4.

Commit 23f0d209 ("sched: Factor out code to should_we_balance()") introduces the should_we_balance() function. This function should return 1 if this cpu is appropriate for balancing. But the newly introduced code doesn't do so, it returns 0 instead of 1. This introduces performance regression, reported by Dave Chinner: v4 filesystem v5 filesystem 3.11+xfsdev: 220k files/s 225k files/s 3.12-git 180k files/s 185k files/s 3.12-git-revert 245k files/s 247k files/s You can find more detailed information at: https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/9/10/1 This patch corrects the return value of should_we_balance() function as orignally intended. With this patch, Dave Chinner reports that the regression is gone: v4 filesystem v5 filesystem 3.11+xfsdev: 220k files/s 225k files/s 3.12-git 180k files/s 185k files/s 3.12-git-revert 245k files/s 247k files/s 3.12-git-fix 249k files/s 248k files/s Reported-by: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com> Tested-by: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim@lge.com> Cc: Paul Turner <pjt@google.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Dave Chinner <david@fromorbit.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20130910065448.GA20368@lge.comSigned-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo: "A lot of activities on the cgroup front. Most changes aren't visible to userland at all at this point and are laying foundation for the planned unified hierarchy. - The biggest change is decoupling the lifetime management of css (cgroup_subsys_state) from that of cgroup's. Because controllers (cpu, memory, block and so on) will need to be dynamically enabled and disabled, css which is the association point between a cgroup and a controller may come and go dynamically across the lifetime of a cgroup. Till now, css's were created when the associated cgroup was created and stayed till the cgroup got destroyed. Assumptions around this tight coupling permeated through cgroup core and controllers. These assumptions are gradually removed, which consists bulk of patches, and css destruction path is completely decoupled from cgroup destruction path. Note that decoupling of creation path is relatively easy on top of these changes and the patchset is pending for the next window. - cgroup has its own event mechanism cgroup.event_control, which is only used by memcg. It is overly complex trying to achieve high flexibility whose benefits seem dubious at best. Going forward, new events will simply generate file modified event and the existing mechanism is being made specific to memcg.

Pull ACPI and power management updates from Rafael Wysocki: 1) ACPI-based PCI hotplug (ACPIPHP) subsystem rework and introduction of Intel Thunderbolt support on systems that use ACPI for signalling Thunderbolt hotplug events. This also should make ACPIPHP work in some cases in which it was known to have problems. From Rafael J Wysocki, Mika Westerberg and Kirill A Shutemov. 2) ACPI core code cleanups and dock station support cleanups from Jiang Liu and Rafael J Wysocki. 3) Fixes for locking problems related to ACPI device hotplug from Rafael J Wysocki. 4) ACPICA update to version 20130725 includig fixes, cleanups, support for more than 256 GPEs per GPE block and a change to make the ACPI PM Timer optional (we've seen systems without the PM Timer in the field already). One of the fixes, related to the DeRefOf operator, is necessary to prevent some Windows 8 oriented AML from causing problems to happen. From Bob Moore, Lv Zheng, and Jung-uk Kim. 5) Removal of the old and long deprecated /proc/acpi/event interface and related driver changes from Thomas Renninger. 6) ACPI and Xen changes to make the reduced hardware sleep work with the latter from Ben Guthro. 7) ACPI video driver cleanups and a blacklist of systems that should not tell the BIOS that they are compatible with Windows 8 (or ACPI backlight and possibly other things will not work on them).
