If signalfd is used to consume a signal generated by a POSIX interval timer or POSIX message queue, the ssi_int field does not reflect the data (sigevent->sigev_value) supplied to timer_create(2) or mq_notify(3). (The ssi_ptr field, however, is filled in.) This behavior differs from signalfd's treatment of sigqueue-generated signals -- see the default case in signalfd_copyinfo. It also gives results that differ from the case when a signal is handled conventionally via a sigaction-registered handler. So, set signalfd_siginfo->ssi_int in the remaining cases (__SI_TIMER, __SI_MESGQ) where ssi_ptr is set. akpm: a non-back-compatible change. Merge into -stable to minimise the number of kernels which are in the field and which miss this feature. Signed-off-by:

exit_ptrace() takes tasklist_lock unconditionally. We need this lock to avoid the race with ptrace_traceme(), it acts as a barrier. Change its caller, forget_original_parent(), to call exit_ptrace() under tasklist_lock. Change exit_ptrace() to drop and reacquire this lock if needed. This allows us to add the fastpath list_empty(ptraced) check. In the likely no-tracees case exit_ptrace() just returns and we avoid the lock() + unlock() sequence. "Zhang, Yanmin" <yanmin_zhang@linux.intel.com> suggested to add this check, and he reports that this change adds about 11% improvement in some tests. Suggested-and-tested-by:

Now, memory cgroup increments css(cgroup subsys state)'s reference count per a charged page. And the reference count is kept until the page is uncharged. But this has 2 bad effect. 1. Because css_get/put calls atomic_inc()/dec, heavy call of them on large smp will not scale well. 2. Because css's refcnt cannot be in a state as "ready-to-release", cgroup's notify_on_release handler can't work with memcg. 3. css's refcnt is atomic_t, it means smaller than 32bit. Maybe too small. This has been a problem since the 1st merge of memcg. This is a trial to remove css's refcnt per a page. Even if we remove refcnt, pre_destroy() does enough synchronization as - check res->usage == 0. - check no pages on LRU. This patch removes css's refcnt per page. Even after this patch, at the 1st look, it seems css_get() is still called in try_charge(). But the logic is. - If a memcg of mm->owner is cached one, consume_stock() will work. At success, return immediately. - If consume_stock returns false, css_get() is called and go to slow path which may be blocked. At the end of slow path, css_put() is called and restart from the start if necessary. So, in the fast path, we don't call css_get() and can avoid access to shared counter. This patch can make the most possible case fast. Here is a result of multi-threaded page fault benchmark.

When the OOM killer scans task, it check a task is under memcg or not when it's called via memcg's context. But, as Oleg pointed out, a thread group leader may have NULL ->mm and task_in_mem_cgroup() may do wrong decision. We have to use find_lock_task_mm() in memcg as generic OOM-Killer does.

Now, for checking a memcg is under task-account-moving, we do css_tryget() against mc.to and mc.from. But this is just complicating things. This patch makes the check easier. This patch adds a spinlock to move_charge_struct and guard modification of mc.to and mc.from. By this, we don't have to think about complicated races arount this not-critical path.

mem_cgroup_try_charge() has a big loop in it and seems to be hard to read. Most of routines are for slow path. This patch moves codes out from the loop and make it clear what's done. Summary: - refactoring a function to detect a memcg is under acccount move or not. - refactoring a function to wait for the end of moving task acct. - refactoring a main loop('s slow path) as a function and make it clear why we retry or quit by return code. - add fatal_signal_pending() check for bypassing charge loops.

It's 11 months since we changed swap_map[] to indicates SWAP_HAS_CACHE. Since that, memcg's swap accounting has been very stable and it seems it can be maintained. So, I'd like to remove EXPERIMENTAL from the config. Acked-by:

The cgroup device whitelist code gets confused when trying to grant permission to a disk partition that is not currently open. Part of blkdev_open() includes __blkdev_get() on the whole disk. Basically, the only ways to reliably allow a cgroup access to a partition on a block device when using the whitelist are to 1) also give it access to the whole block device or 2) make sure the partition is already open in a different context. The patch avoids the cgroup check for the whole disk case when opening a partition. Addresses https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=589662Signed-off-by:

When we setup up the VMA flags for the mmap flag and we end up using the fallback mmap functionality we set the vma->vm_flags |= VM_IO. However we neglect to propagate the flag to the vma->vm_page_prot. This bug was found when Linux kernel was running under Xen. In that scenario, any page that has VM_IO flag to it, means that it MUST be a MMIO/VRAM backend memory , _not_ System RAM. That is what the fbmem.c does: sets VM_IO, ioremaps the region - everything is peachy. Well, not exactly. The vm_page_prot does not get the relevant PTE flags set (_PAGE_IOMAP) which under Xen is a death-kneel to pages that are referencing real physical devices but don't have that flag set. This patch fixes this. Signed-off-by:
