tracing: Move mutex to protect against resetting of seq data

2016-09-25T14:27:08Z

The iter->seq can be reset outside the protection of the mutex. So can reading of user data. Move the mutex up to the beginning of the function.

Pull perf fixes from Thomas Gleixner: "Three fixlets for perf: - add a missing NULL pointer check in the intel BTS driver - make BTS an exclusive PMU because BTS can only handle one event at a time - ensure that exclusive events are limited to one PMU so that several exclusive events can be scheduled on different PMU instances" * 'perf-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: perf/core: Limit matching exclusive events to one PMU perf/x86/intel/bts: Make it an exclusive PMU perf/x86/intel/bts: Make sure debug store is valid

Pull irq fixes from Thomas Gleixner: "Three fixes for irq core and irq chip drivers: - Do not set the irq type if type is NONE. Fixes a boot regression on various SoCs - Use the proper cpu for setting up the GIC target list. Discovered by the cpumask debugging code. - A rather large fix for the MIPS-GIC so per cpu local interrupts work again. This was discovered late because the code falls back to slower timers which use normal device interrupts" * 'irq-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: irqchip/mips-gic: Fix local interrupts irqchip/gicv3: Silence noisy DEBUG_PER_CPU_MAPS warning genirq: Skip chained interrupt trigger setup if type is IRQ_TYPE_NONE

cgroup: fix invalid controller enable rejections with cgroup namespace

2016-09-23T20:55:49Z

On the v2 hierarchy, "cgroup.subtree_control" rejects controller enables if the cgroup has processes in it. The enforcement of this logic assumes that the cgroup wouldn't have any css_sets associated with it if there are no tasks in the cgroup, which is no longer true since a79a908fd2b0 ("cgroup: introduce cgroup namespaces"). When a cgroup namespace is created, it pins the css_set of the creating task to use it as the root css_set of the namespace. This extra reference stays as long as the namespace is around and makes "cgroup.subtree_control" think that the namespace root cgroup is not empty even when it is and thus reject controller enables. Fix it by making cgroup_subtree_control() walk and test emptiness of each css_set instead of testing whether the list_head is empty. While at it, update the comment of cgroup_task_count() to indicate that the returned value may be higher than the number of tasks, which has always been true due to temporary references and doesn't break anything.

perf/core: Limit matching exclusive events to one PMU

2016-09-22T12:56:09Z

An "exclusive" PMU is the one that can only have one event scheduled in at any given time. There may be more than one of such PMUs in a system, though, like Intel PT and BTS. It should be allowed to have one event for either of those inside the same context (there may be other constraints that may prevent this, but those would be hardware-specific). However, the exclusivity code is written so that only one event from any of the "exclusive" PMUs is allowed in a context. Fix this by making the exclusive event filter explicitly match two events' PMUs.

cgroup: duplicate cgroup reference when cloning sockets

2016-09-19T22:36:17Z

When a socket is cloned, the associated sock_cgroup_data is duplicated but not its reference on the cgroup. As a result, the cgroup reference count will underflow when both sockets are destroyed later on.

genirq: Skip chained interrupt trigger setup if type is IRQ_TYPE_NONE

2016-09-19T09:31:36Z

There is no point in trying to configure the trigger of a chained interrupt if no trigger information has been configured. At best this is ignored, and at the worse this confuses the underlying irqchip (which is likely not to handle such a thing), and unnecessarily alarms the user. Only apply the configuration if type is not IRQ_TYPE_NONE.
