Ilya reported that on a very slow machine he could reliably
reproduce a race between forking init and kthreadd. We first
fork init so that it  obtains pid-1, however since the scheduler
is already fully running at this point it can preempt and run
the init thread before we spawn and set kthreadd_task.

The init thread can then attempt spawning kthreads without
kthreadd being present which results in an OOPS.

Commit e7097159 ("sched: Optimize unused cgroup configuration") introduced
an imbalanced scheduling bug.

If we do not use CGROUP, function update_h_load won't update h_load. When the
system has a large number of tasks far more than logical CPU number, the
incorrect cfs_rq[cpu]->h_load value will cause load_balance() to pull too
many tasks to the local CPU from the busiest CPU. So the busiest CPU keeps
going in a round robin. That will hurt performance.

The issue was found originally by a scientific calculation workload that
developed by Yanmin. With that commit, the workload performance drops
about 40%.

PROVE_RCU has a few issues with the cpu_cgroup because the scheduler
typically holds rq->lock around the css rcu derefs but the generic
cgroup code doesn't (and can't) know about that lock.

Provide means to add extra checks to the css dereference and use that
in the scheduler to annotate its users.

The addition of rq->lock to these checks is correct because the
cgroup_subsys::attach() method takes the rq->lock for each task it
moves, therefore by holding that lock, we ensure the task is pinned to
the current cgroup and the RCU derefence is valid.

That leaves one genuine race in __sched_setscheduler() where we used
task_group() without holding any of the required locks and thus raced
with the cgroup code. Solve this by moving the check under the
appropriate lock.

Commit 96d60303 (ahci: Turn off DMA engines when there's no device)
implemented stopping DMA engines on empty ports but it used single
sampling of status registers to determine device presence which led to
disabling of DMA engines on occupied ports.  Do it after all EH
actions are complete using device presence state determined by EH.
This avoids spurious disabling of DMA engines and simplifies the code.

This reverts commit 962400e8, which was
entirely bogus.

The code used to multiply the character offset by "vc->vc_cols", and
that's actually correct, because 'd' itself is an 'unsigned short'.  So
the pointer arithmetic already takes the size of a VGA character into
account.  Changing it to use vc_size_row (which is just "vc_cols"
shifted up to take the size of the character into account) ends up
multiplying with the VGA character size twice.

This got reported as bugs for various other subsystems, because what it
actually results in is writing the 16-bit vc_video_erase_char pattern
(usually 0x0720: 0x07 is the default attribute, 0x20 is ASCII space)
into some random other allocation.

So Markus ended up reporting this as a ext4 bug, while to Torsten Kaiser
it looked like a problem with KMS or libata.  Jeff Chua saw it in
different places.

And finally - Justin Mattock had slab poisoning enabled, and saw it as a
slab poison overwritten.  And bisected and reverted this to verify the
buggy commit.

Cursors need to be in the GTT domain when being accessed by the GPU.
Previously this was a fortuitous byproduct of userspace using pwrite()
to upload the image data into the cursor. The redundant clflush was
removed in commit 9b8c4a and so the image was no longer being flushed
out of the caches into main memory. One could also devise a scenario
where the cursor was rendered by the GPU, prior to being attached as the
cursor, resulting in similar corruption due to the missing MI_FLUSH.

  module: Make module sysfs functions private.

  module: fix kdb's illicit use of struct module_use.
  module: Make the 'usage' lists be two-way

Problem: it's hard to avoid an init routine stumbling over a
request_module these days.  And it's not clear it's always a bad idea:
for example, a module like kvm with dynamic dependencies on kvm-intel
or kvm-amd would be neater if it could simply request_module the right
one.

In this particular case, it's libcrc32c:

	libcrc32c_mod_init
	 crypto_alloc_shash
	  crypto_alloc_tfm
	   crypto_find_alg
	    crypto_alg_mod_lookup
	     crypto_larval_lookup
	      request_module

If another module is waiting inside resolve_symbol() for libcrc32c to
finish initializing (ie. bne2 depends on libcrc32c) then it does so
holding the module lock, and our request_module() can't make progress
until that is released.

Waiting inside resolve_symbol() without the lock isn't all that hard:
we just need to pass the -EBUSY up the call chain so we can sleep
where we don't hold the lock.  Error reporting is a bit trickier: we
need to copy the name of the unfinished module before releasing the
lock.

Other notes:
1) This also fixes a theoretical issue where a weak dependency would allow
   symbol version mismatches to be ignored.
2) We rename use_module to ref_module to make life easier for the only
   external user (the out-of-tree ksplice patches).

It disabled preempt so it was "safe", but nothing stops another module
slipping in before this module is added to the global list now we don't
hold the lock the whole time.

So we check this just after we check for duplicate modules, and just
before we put the module in the global list.

(find_symbol finds symbols in coming and going modules, too).
Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

I think Rusty may have made the lock a bit _too_ finegrained there, and
didn't add it to some places that needed it. It looks, for example, like
PATCH 1/2 actually drops the lock in places where it's needed
("find_module()" is documented to need it, but now load_module() didn't
hold it at all when it did the find_module()).

Rather than adding a new "module_loading" list, I think we should be able
to just use the existing "modules" list, and just fix up the locking a
bit.

In fact, maybe we could just move the "look up existing module" a bit
later - optimistically assuming that the module doesn't exist, and then
just undoing the work if it turns out that we were wrong, just before
adding ourselves to the list.

When adding a module that depends on another one, we used to create a
one-way list of "modules_which_use_me", so that module unloading could
see who needs a module.

It's actually quite simple to make that list go both ways: so that we
not only can see "who uses me", but also see a list of modules that are
"used by me".

In fact, we always wanted that list in "module_unload_free()": when we
unload a module, we want to also release all the other modules that are
used by that module.  But because we didn't have that list, we used to
first iterate over all modules, and then iterate over each "used by me"
list of that module.

By making the list two-way, we simplify module_unload_free(), and it
allows for some trivial fixes later too.

I believe a moderate SYN flood attack can corrupt RFS flow table
(rps_sock_flow_table), making RPS/RFS much less effective.

Even in a normal situation, server handling short lived sessions suffer
from bad steering for the first data packet of a session, if another SYN
packet is received for another session.

We do following action in tcp_v4_rcv() :

	sock_rps_save_rxhash(sk, skb->rxhash);

We should _not_ do this if sk is a LISTEN socket, as about each
packet received on a LISTEN socket has a different rxhash than
previous one.
 -> RPS_NO_CPU markers are spread all over rps_sock_flow_table.

Also, it makes sense to protect sk->rxhash field changes with socket
lock (We currently can change it even if user thread owns the lock
and might use rxhash)

This patch moves sock_rps_save_rxhash() to a sock locked section,
and only for non LISTEN sockets.
