This change adds a procfs connector event, which is emitted on every
successful process tracer attach or detach.
If some process connects to other one, kernelspace connector reports
process id and thread group id of both these involved processes. On
disconnection null process id is returned.
Such an event allows to create a simple automated userspace mechanism
to be aware about processes connecting to others, therefore predefined
process policies can be applied to them if needed.
Note, a detach signal is emitted only in case, if a tracer process
explicitly executes PTRACE_DETACH request. In other cases like tracee
or tracer exit detach event from proc connector is not reported.

`make headers_check` complains that
linux-2.6/usr/include/linux/sdla.h:116: userspace cannot reference
function or variable defined in the kernel
this is due to that there is no such a kernel function,
void sdla(void *cfg_info, char *dev, struct frad_conf *conf, int quiet);
I don't know why we have it in a kernel header, so remove it.

The fake SIGSTOP during attach has numerous problems. PTRACE_SEIZE
is already fine, but we have basically the same problems is SIGSTOP
is sent on auto-attach, the tracer can't know if this signal signal
should be cancelled or not.
Change ptrace_event() to set JOBCTL_TRAP_STOP if the new child is
PT_SEIZED, this triggers the PTRACE_EVENT_STOP report.
Thereafter a PT_SEIZED task can never report the bogus SIGSTOP.
Test-case:
#define PTRACE_SEIZE 0x4206
#define PTRACE_SEIZE_DEVEL 0x80000000
#define PTRACE_EVENT_STOP 7
#define WEVENT(s) ((s & 0xFF0000) >> 16)
int main(void)
{
int child, grand_child, status;
long message;
child = fork();
if (!child) {
kill(getpid(), SIGSTOP);
fork();
assert(0);
return 0x23;
}
assert(ptrace(PTRACE_SEIZE, child, 0,PTRACE_SEIZE_DEVEL) == 0);
assert(wait(&status) == child);
assert(WIFSTOPPED(status) && WSTOPSIG(status) == SIGSTOP);
assert(ptrace(PTRACE_SETOPTIONS, child, 0, PTRACE_O_TRACEFORK) == 0);
assert(ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, child, 0,0) == 0);
assert(waitpid(child, &status, 0) == child);
assert(WIFSTOPPED(status) && WSTOPSIG(status) == SIGTRAP);
assert(WEVENT(status) == PTRACE_EVENT_FORK);
assert(ptrace(PTRACE_GETEVENTMSG, child, 0, &message) == 0);
grand_child = message;
assert(waitpid(grand_child, &status, 0) == grand_child);
assert(WIFSTOPPED(status) && WSTOPSIG(status) == SIGTRAP);
assert(WEVENT(status) == PTRACE_EVENT_STOP);
kill(child, SIGKILL);
kill(grand_child, SIGKILL);
return 0;

If the new child is traced, do_fork() adds the pending SIGSTOP.
It assumes that either it is traced because of auto-attach or the
tracer attached later, in both cases sigaddset/set_thread_flag is
correct even if SIGSTOP is already pending.
Now that we have PTRACE_SEIZE this is no longer right in the latter
case. If the tracer does PTRACE_SEIZE after copy_process() makes the
child visible the queued SIGSTOP is wrong.
We could check PT_SEIZED bit and change ptrace_attach() to set both
PT_PTRACED and PT_SEIZED bits simultaneously but see the next patch,
we need to know whether this child was auto-attached or not anyway.
So this patch simply moves this code to ptrace_init_task(), this
way we can never race with ptrace_attach().

new_child->jobctl is not initialized during the fork, it is copied
from parent->jobctl. Currently this is harmless, the forking task
is running and copy_process() can't succeed if signal_pending() is
true, so only JOBCTL_STOP_DEQUEUED can be copied. Still this is a
bit fragile, it would be more clean to set ->jobctl = 0 explicitly.
Also, check ->ptrace != 0 instead of PT_PTRACED, move the
CONFIG_HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINT code up.

- Shorten some documentation on an event and an ioctl that are

preferable variants.
- Spell Configuration ROM (name of an IEEE 1212 register) in

event queuing
Between open(2) of a /dev/fw* and the first FW_CDEV_IOC_GET_INFO
ioctl(2) on it, the kernel already queues FW_CDEV_EVENT_BUS_RESET events
to be read(2) by the client. The get_info ioctl is practically always
issued right away after open, hence this condition only occurs if the
client opens during a bus reset, especially during a rapid series of bus
resets.
The problem with this condition is twofold:
- These bus reset events carry the (as yet undocumented) @closure
value of 0. But it is not the kernel's place to choose closures;
they are privat to the client. E.g., this 0 value forced from the
kernel makes it unsafe for clients to dereference it as a pointer to
a closure object without NULL pointer check.
- It is impossible for clients to determine the relative order of bus
reset events from get_info ioctl(2) versus those from read(2),
except in one way: By comparison of closure values. Again, such a
procedure imposes complexity on clients and reduces freedom in use
of the bus reset closure.
So, change the ABI to suppress queuing of bus reset events before the
first FW_CDEV_IOC_GET_INFO ioctl was issued by the client.
Note, this ABI change cannot be version-controlled. The kernel cannot
distinguish old from new clients before the first FW_CDEV_IOC_GET_INFO
ioctl.
We will try to back-merge this change into currently maintained stable/
longterm series, and we only document the new behaviour. The old
behavior is now considered a kernel bug, which it basically is.

A system or a device may need to control suspend/wakeup events. It may
want to wakeup the system after a predefined amount of time or at a
predefined event decided while entering suspend for polling or delayed
work. Then, it may want to enter suspend again if its predefined wakeup
condition is the only wakeup reason and there is no outstanding events;
thus, it does not wakeup the userspace unnecessary or unnecessary
devices and keeps suspended as long as possible (saving the power).
Enabling a system to wakeup after a specified time can be easily
achieved by using RTC. However, to enter suspend again immediately
without invoking userland and unrelated devices, we need additional
features in the suspend framework.
Such need comes from:
1. Monitoring a critical device status without interrupts that can
wakeup the system. (in-suspend polling)
An example is ambient temperature monitoring that needs to shut down
the system or a specific device function if it is too hot or cold. The
temperature of a specific device may be needed to be monitored as well;
e.g., a charger monitors battery temperature in order to stop charging
if overheated.
2. Execute critical "delayed work" at suspend.
A driver or a system/board may have a delayed work (or any similar
things) that it wants to execute at the requested time.
For example, some chargers want to check the battery voltage some
time (e.g., 30 seconds) after the battery is fully charged and the
charger has stopped. Then, the charger restarts charging if the voltage
has dropped more than a threshold, which is smaller than "restart-charger"
voltage, which is a threshold to restart charging regardless of the
time passed.
This patch allows to add "suspend_again" callback at struct
platform_suspend_ops and let the "suspend_again" callback return true if
the system is required to enter suspend again after the current instance
of wakeup. Device-wise suspend_again implemented at dev_pm_ops or
syscore is not done because: a) suspend_again feature is usually under
platform-wise decision and controls the behavior of the whole platform
and b) There are very limited devices related to the usage cases of
suspend_again; chargers and temperature sensors are mentioned so far.
With suspend_again callback registered at struct platform_suspend_ops
suspend_ops in kernel/power/suspend.c with suspend_set_ops by the
platform, the suspend framework tries to enter suspend again by
looping suspend_enter() if suspend_again has returned true and there has
been no errors in the suspending sequence or pending wakeups (by
pm_wakeup_pending).
Tested at Exynos4-NURI.

There is no software fallback implemented for SCTP or FCoE checksumming,
and so it should not be passed on by software devices like bridge or bonding.
For VLAN devices, this is different. First, the driver for underlying device
should be prepared to get offloaded packets even when the feature is disabled
(especially if it advertises it in vlan_features). Second, devices under
VLANs do not get replaced without tearing down the VLAN first.
This fixes a mess I accidentally introduced while converting bonding to
ndo_fix_features.

Currently the stack trace per event in ftace is only 8 frames.
This can be quite limiting and sometimes useless. Especially when
the "ignore frames" is wrong and we also use up stack frames for
the event processing itself.
Change this to be dynamic by adding a percpu buffer that we can
write a large stack frame into and then copy into the ring buffer.
For interrupts and NMIs that come in while another event is being
process, will only get to use the 8 frame stack. That should be enough
as the task that it interrupted will have the full stack frame anyway.

In WoWLAN, devices may use crypto keys for TX/RX
and could also implement GTK rekeying. If the
driver isn't able to retrieve replay counters and
similar information from the device upon resume,
or if the device isn't responsive due to platform
issues, it isn't safe to keep the connection up
as GTK rekey messages from during the sleep time
could be replayed against it.
The only protection against that is disconnecting
from the AP. Modifying mac80211 to do that while
it is resuming would be very complex and invasive
in the case that the driver requires a reconfig,
so do it after it has resumed completely. In that
case, however, packets might be replayed since it
can then only happen after TX/RX are up again, so
mark keys for interfaces that need to disconnect
as "tainted" and drop all packets that are sent
or received with those keys.

All ACPICA locks are allocated by the same function,
acpi_os_create_lock(), with the help of a local variable called
"lock". Thus, when lockdep is enabled, it uses "lock" as the
name of all those locks and regards them as instances of the same
lock, which causes it to report possible locking problems with them
when there aren't any.
To work around this problem, define acpi_os_create_lock() as a macro
and make it pass its argument to spin_lock_init(), so that lockdep
uses it as the name of the new lock. Define this macron in a
Linux-specific file, to minimize the resulting modifications of
the OS-independent ACPICA parts.
This change is based on an earlier patch from Andrea Righi and it
addresses a regression from 2.6.39 tracked as

This patch implements node_map_pfn_alignment() which determines
maximum internode alignment and update numa_register_memblks() to
reject NUMA configuration if alignment exceeds the pfn -> nid mapping
granularity of the memory model as determined by PAGES_PER_SECTION.
This makes the problematic machine boot w/ flatmem by rejecting the
NUMA config and provides protection against crazy NUMA configurations.
