death to mnt_pinned
Rather than playing silly buggers with vfsmount refcounts, just have
acct_on() ask fs/namespace.c for internal clone of file->f_path.mnt
and replace it with said clone. Then attach the pin to original
vfsmount. Voila - the clone will be alive until the file gets closed,
making sure that underlying superblock remains active, etc., and
we can drop the original vfsmount, so that it's not kept busy.
If the file lives until the final mntput of the original vfsmount,
we'll notice that there's an fs_pin (one in bsd_acct_struct that
holds that file) and mnt_pin_kill() will take it out. Since
->kill() is synchronous, we won't proceed past that point until
these files are closed (and private clones of our vfsmount are
gone), so we get the same ordering warranties we used to get.
mnt_pin()/mnt_unpin()/->mnt_pinned is gone now, and good riddance -
it never became usable outside of kernel/acct.c (and racy wrt
umount even there).

take fs_pin stuff to fs/*
Add a new field to fs_pin - kill(pin). That's what umount and r/o remount
will be calling for all pins attached to vfsmount and superblock resp.
Called after bumping the refcount, so it won't go away under us. Dropping
the refcount is responsibility of the instance. All generic stuff moved to
fs/fs_pin.c; the next step will rip all the knowledge of kernel/acct.c from
fs/super.c and fs/namespace.c. After that - death to mnt_pin(); it was
intended to be usable as generic mechanism for code that wants to attach
objects to vfsmount, so that they would not make the sucker busy and
would get killed on umount. Never got it right; it remained acct.c-specific
all along. Now it's very close to being killable.

acct: new lifetime rules
Do not reuse bsd_acct_struct after closing the damn thing.
Structure lifetime is controlled by refcount now. We also
have a mutex in there, held over closing and writing (the
file is O_APPEND, so we are not losing any concurrency).
As the result, we do not need to bother with get_file()/fput()
on log write anymore. Moreover, do_acct_process() only needs
acct itself; file and pidns are picked from it.
Killed instances are distinguished by having NULL ->ns.
Refcount is protected by acct_lock; anybody taking the
mutex needs to grab a reference first.
The things will get a lot simpler in the next commits - this
is just the minimal chunk switching to the new lifetime rules.

acct: encode_comp_t(0) is 0, fortunately...
There was an amusing bogosity in ac_rw calculation - it tried to
do encode_comp_t(encode_comp_t(0) / 1024). Seeing that comp_t is
a 3-bit exponent + 13-bit mantissa... it's a good thing that 0 is
represented by all-bits-clear.
The history of that one is interesting - it was introduced in
2.1.68pre1, when acct.c had been reworked and moved to separate
file. Two months later (2.1.86) somebody has noticed that the
sucker won't compile - there was no task_struct::io_usage.
At which point the ac_io calculation had changed from
encode_comp_t(current->io_usage) to encode_comp_t(0) and the
bug in the next line (absolutely real back then, had it ever
managed to compile) become a harmless bogosity. Looks like
nobody has ever noticed until now.
Anyway, let's bury that idiocy now that it got noticed. 17 years
is long enough...

fs: Fix hang with BSD accounting on frozen filesystem
When BSD process accounting is enabled and logs information to a
filesystem which gets frozen, system easily becomes unusable because
each attempt to account process information blocks. Thus e.g. every task
gets blocked in exit.
It seems better to drop accounting information (which can already happen
when filesystem is running out of space) instead of locking system up.
So we just skip the write if the filesystem is frozen.

vfs: define struct filename and have getname() return it
getname() is intended to copy pathname strings from userspace into a
kernel buffer. The result is just a string in kernel space. It would
however be quite helpful to be able to attach some ancillary info to
the string.
For instance, we could attach some audit-related info to reduce the
amount of audit-related processing needed. When auditing is enabled,
we could also call getname() on the string more than once and not
need to recopy it from userspace.
This patchset converts the getname()/putname() interfaces to return
a struct instead of a string. For now, the struct just tracks the
string in kernel space and the original userland pointer for it.
Later, we'll add other information to the struct as it becomes
convenient.

bsdacct: switch credentials for writing to the accounting file
When process accounting is enabled, every exiting process writes a log to
the account file. In addition, every once in a while one of the exiting
processes checks whether there's enough free space for the log.
SELinux policy may or may not allow the exiting process to stat the fs.
So unsuspecting processes start generating AVC denials just because
someone enabled process accounting.
For these filesystem operations, the exiting process's credentials should
be temporarily switched to that of the process which enabled accounting,
because it's really that process which wanted to have the accounting
information logged.

CRED: Wrap task credential accesses in the core kernel
Wrap access to task credentials so that they can be separated more easily from
the task_struct during the introduction of COW creds.
Change most current->(|e|s|fs)[ug]id to current_(|e|s|fs)[ug]id().
Change some task->e?[ug]id to task_e?[ug]id(). In some places it makes more
sense to use RCU directly rather than a convenient wrapper; these will be
addressed by later patches.

bsdacct: rename acct_gbls to bsd_acct_struct
After I fixed access to task->tgid in kernel/acct.c, Oleg pointed out some
bad side effects with this accounting vs pid namespaces interaction. I.e.
when some task in pid namespace sets this accounting up, this blocks all
the others from doing the same. Restricting this to init namespace only
could help, but didn't look a graceful solution.
So here is the approach to make this accounting work with pid namespaces
properly.
The idea is simple - when a task dies it accounts itself in each namespace
it is visible from and which set the accounting up.
For example here are the commands run and the output of lastcomm from init
and sub namespaces:
init_ns# accton pacct
sub_ns# accton pacct (this is a different file - sub ns is run in
a chroot-ed environment)
init_ns# cat /dev/null
sub_ns# ls /dev/null
init_ns# accton
sub_ns# accton
sub_ns# lastcomm -f pacct
ls 0 [136,0] 0.00 secs Thu May 15 10:30
accton 0 [136,0] 0.00 secs Thu May 15 10:30
init_ns# lastcomm -f pacct
accton root pts/0 0.00 secs Thu May 15 14:30 << got from sub
cat root pts/1 0.00 secs Thu May 15 14:30
ls root pts/0 0.00 secs Thu May 15 14:30 << got from sub
accton root pts/1 0.00 secs Thu May 15 14:30
That was the summary, the details are in patches.
This patch:
It will be visible in pid_namespace.h file, so fix its name to look better
outside the acct.c file.

bsd_acct: plain current->real_parent access is not always safe
This is minor, but dereferencing even current real_parent is not safe on debug
kernels, since the memory, this points to, can be unmapped - RCU protection is
required.
Besides, the tgid field is deprecated and is to be replaced with task_tgid_xxx
call (the 2nd patch), so RCU will be required anyway.

Cleanup non-arch xtime uses, use get_seconds() or current_kernel_time().
This avoids use of the kernel-internal "xtime" variable directly outside
of the actual time-related functions. Instead, use the helper functions
that we already have available to us.
This doesn't actually change any behaviour, but this will allow us to
fix the fact that "xtime" isn't updated very often with CONFIG_NO_HZ
(because much of the realtime information is maintained as separate
offsets to 'xtime'), which has caused interfaces that use xtime directly
to get a time that is out of sync with the real-time clock by up to a
third of a second or so.

[PATCH] tty: ->signal->tty locking
Fix the locking of signal->tty.
Use ->sighand->siglock to protect ->signal->tty; this lock is already used
by most other members of ->signal/->sighand. And unless we are 'current'
or the tasklist_lock is held we need ->siglock to access ->signal anyway.
(NOTE: sys_unshare() is broken wrt ->sighand locking rules)
Note that tty_mutex is held over tty destruction, so while holding
tty_mutex any tty pointer remains valid. Otherwise the lifetime of ttys
are governed by their open file handles. This leaves some holes for tty
access from signal->tty (or any other non file related tty access).
It solves the tty SLAB scribbles we were seeing.
(NOTE: the change from group_send_sig_info to __group_send_sig_info needs to
be examined by someone familiar with the security framework, I think
it is safe given the SEND_SIG_PRIV from other __group_send_sig_info
invocations)

[PATCH] pacct: none-delayed process accounting accumulation
In current 2.6.17 implementation, signal_struct refered from task_struct is
used for per-process data structure. The pacct facility also uses it as a
per-process data structure to store stime, utime, minflt, majflt. But those
members are saved in __exit_signal(). It's too late.
For example, if some threads exits at same time, pacct facility has a
possibility to drop accountings for a part of those threads. (see, the
following 'The results of original 2.6.17 kernel') I think accounting
information should be completely collected into the per-process data structure
before writing out an accounting record.
This patch fixes this matter. Accumulation of stime, utime, minflt and majflt
are done before generating accounting record.

[PATCH] pacct: avoidance to refer the last thread as a representation of the process
When pacct facility generate an 'ac_flag' field in accounting record, it
refers a task_struct of the thread which died last in the process. But any
other task_structs are ignored.
Therefore, pacct facility drops ASU flag even if root-privilege operations are
used by any other threads except the last one. In addition, AFORK flag is
always set when the thread of group-leader didn't die last, although this
process has called execve() after fork().
We have a same matter in ac_exitcode. The recorded ac_exitcode is an exit
code of the last thread in the process. There is a possibility this exitcode
is not the group leader's one.

[PATCH] pacct: add pacct_struct to fix some pacct bugs.
The pacct facility need an i/o operation when an accounting record is
generated. There is a possibility to wake OOM killer up. If OOM killer is
activated, it kills some processes to make them release process memory
regions.
But acct_process() is called in the killed processes context before calling
exit_mm(), so those processes cannot release own memory. In the results, any

[PATCH] VFS: Permit filesystem to perform statfs with a known root dentry
Give the statfs superblock operation a dentry pointer rather than a superblock
pointer.
This complements the get_sb() patch. That reduced the significance of
sb->s_root, allowing NFS to place a fake root there. However, NFS does
require a dentry to use as a target for the statfs operation. This permits
the root in the vfsmount to be used instead.
linux/mount.h has been added where necessary to make allyesconfig build
successfully.
Interest has also been expressed for use with the FUSE and XFS filesystems.

[PATCH] Fix pacct bug in multithreading case.
I noticed a bug on the process accounting facility. In multi-threading
process, some data would be recorded incorrectly when the group_leader dies
earlier than one or more threads. The attached patch fixes this problem.
See below. 'bugacct' is a test program that create a worker thread after 4
seconds sleeping, then the group_leader dies soon. The worker thread
consume CPU/Memory for 6 seconds, then exit. We can estimate 10 seconds as
etime and 6 seconds as stime + utime. This is a sample program which the
group_leader dies earlier than other threads.
The results of same binary execution on different kernel are below.
-- accounted records --------------------
| btime | utime | stime | etime | minflt | majflt | comm |
original | 13:16:40 | 0.00 | 0.00 | 6.10 | 171 | 0 | bugacct |
patched | 13:20:21 | 5.83 | 0.18 | 10.03 | 32776 | 0 | bugacct |
(*) bugacct allocates 128MB memory, thus 128MB / 4KB = 32768 of minflt is
appropriate.
-- Test results in original kernel ------
$ date; time -p ./bugacct
Tue Mar 28 13:16:36 JST 2006 <- But pacct said btime is 13:16:40
real 10.11 <- But pacct said etime is 6.10
user 5.96 <- But pacct said utime is 0.00
sys 0.14 <- But pacct said stime is 0.00
$
-- Test results in patched kernel -------
$ date; time -p ./bugacct
Tue Mar 28 13:20:21 JST 2006
real 10.04
user 5.83
sys 0.19
$
In the original 2.6.16 kernel, pacct records btime, utime, stime, etime and
minflt incorrectly. In my opinion, this problem is caused by an assumption
that group_leader dies last.
The following section calculates process running time for etime and btime.
But it means running time of the thread that dies last, not process. The
start_time of the first thread in the process (group_leader) should be
reduced from uptime to calculate etime and btime correctly.
---- do_acct_process() in kernel/acct.c:
/* calculate run_time in nsec*/
do_posix_clock_monotonic_gettime(&uptime);
run_time = (u64)uptime.tv_sec*NSEC_PER_SEC + uptime.tv_nsec;
run_time -= (u64)current->start_time.tv_sec*NSEC_PER_SEC
+ current->start_time.tv_nsec;
----
The following section calculates stime and utime of the process.
But it might count the utime and stime of the group_leader duplicatly
and ignore the utime and stime of the thread dies last, when one or
more threads remain after group_leader dead.
The ac_utime should be calculated as the sum of the signal->utime
and utime of the thread dies last. The ac_stime should be done also.
---- do_acct_process() in kernel/acct.c:
jiffies = cputime_to_jiffies(cputime_add(current->group_leader->utime,
current->signal->utime));
ac.ac_utime = encode_comp_t(jiffies_to_AHZ(jiffies));
jiffies = cputime_to_jiffies(cputime_add(current->group_leader->stime,
current->signal->stime));
ac.ac_stime = encode_comp_t(jiffies_to_AHZ(jiffies));
----
The part of the minflt/majflt calculation has same problem.
This patch solves those problems, I think.

[PATCH] saner handling of auto_acct_off() and DQUOT_OFF() in umount
The way we currently deal with quota and process accounting that might
keep vfsmount busy at umount time is inherently broken; we try to turn
them off just in case (not quite correctly, at that) and
a) pray umount doesn't fail (otherwise they'll stay turned off)
b) pray nobody doesn anything funny just as we turn quota off
Moreover, LSM provides hooks for doing the same sort of broken logics.
The proper way to deal with that is to introduce the second kind of
reference to vfsmount. Semantics:
- when the last normal reference is dropped, all special ones are
converted to normal ones and if there had been any, cleanup is done.
- normal reference can be cloned into a special one
- special reference can be converted to normal one; that's a no-op if
we'd already passed the point of no return (i.e. mntput() had
converted special references to normal and started cleanup).
The way it works: e.g. starting process accounting converts the vfsmount
reference pinned by the opened file into special one and turns it back
to normal when it gets shut down; acct_auto_close() is done when no
normal references are left. That way it does *not* obstruct umount(2)
and it silently gets turned off when the last normal reference to
vfsmount is gone. Which is exactly what we want...
The same should be done by LSM module that holds some internal
references to vfsmount and wants to shut them down on umount - it should
make them special and security_sb_umount_close() will be called exactly
when the last normal reference to vfsmount is gone.
quota handling is even simpler - we don't use normal file IO anymore, so
there's no need to hold vfsmounts at all. DQUOT_OFF() is done from
deactivate_super(), where it really belongs.

[PATCH] mm: rss = file_rss + anon_rss
I was lazy when we added anon_rss, and chose to change as few places as
possible. So currently each anonymous page has to be counted twice, in rss
and in anon_rss. Which won't be so good if those are atomic counts in some
configurations.
Change that around: keep file_rss and anon_rss separately, and add them
together (with get_mm_rss macro) when the total is needed - reading two
atomics is much cheaper than updating two atomics. And update anon_rss
upfront, typically in memory.c, not tucked away in page_add_anon_rmap.

[PATCH] largefile support for accounting
There is a problem in the accounting subsystem in the kernel can not
correctly handle files larger than 2GB. The output file containing the
process accounting data can grow very large if the system is large enough
and active enough. If the 2GB limit is reached, then the system simply
stops storing process accounting data.
Another annoying problem is that once the system reaches this 2GB limit,
then every process which exits will receive a signal, SIGXFSZ. This signal
is generated because an attempt was made to write beyond the limit for the
file descriptor. This signal makes it look like every process has exited
due to a signal, when in fact, they have not.
The solution is to add the O_LARGEFILE flag to the list of flags used to
open the accounting file. The rest of the accounting support is already
largefile safe.
The changes were tested by constructing a large file (just short of 2GB),
enabling accounting, and then running enough commands to cause the
accounting data generated to increase the size of the file to 2GB. Without
the changes, the file grows to 2GB and the last command run in the test
script appears to exit due a signal when it has not. With the changes,
things work as expected and quietly.
There are some user level changes required so that it can deal with
largefiles, but those are being handled separately.

Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
