the ftracetests script does a grep of the /proc/mounts file to find

Use "head -1" to only return the first mount point for debugfs.

ftracetest: Take the first debugfs mount found
Running ftracetests on a box that mounted debugfs in two locations
made the ftracetests fail. This is because the tests uses a grep
of debugfs from the /proc/mounts file to find the debugfs mount
point, and then appends "/tracing" to that string to get the tracing
directory.
If the debugfs directory is mounted twice, then that grep will return
two answers and appending "/tracing" to a string with two lines will
not work.
Use "head -1" to only take the first mount point found.

When starting a new torture run while an old one is still running, both
qemu processes can be outputting to the same console.out file. This can
cause quite a bit of confusion, so this commit checks for this situation,

if your new run uses up an exact number of blocks of the file, this

Setting CONFIG_MAXSMP=y causes cpumasks to be moved offstack, which

therefore enables CONFIG_MAXSMP=y in TREE01 to increase test coverage.
However, because CONFIG_MAXSMP=y implies 8192 CPUs, we need to use
the maxcpus= boot parameter to limit the number of CPUs to something
reasonable, which in turn requires updating the scripts to handle this.

Pull namespace updates from Eric Biederman:
"This is a bunch of small changes built against 3.16-rc6. The most
significant change for users is the first patch which makes setns
drmatically faster by removing unneded rcu handling.
The next chunk of changes are so that "mount -o remount,.." will not
allow the user namespace root to drop flags on a mount set by the
system wide root. Aks this forces read-only mounts to stay read-only,
no-dev mounts to stay no-dev, no-suid mounts to stay no-suid, no-exec
mounts to stay no exec and it prevents unprivileged users from messing
with a mounts atime settings. I have included my test case as the
last patch in this series so people performing backports can verify
this change works correctly.
The next change fixes a bug in NFS that was discovered while auditing
nsproxy users for the first optimization. Today you can oops the
kernel by reading /proc/fs/nfsfs/{servers,volumes} if you are clever
with pid namespaces. I rebased and fixed the build of the
!CONFIG_NFS_FS case yesterday when a build bot caught my typo. Given
that no one to my knowledge bases anything on my tree fixing the typo
in place seems more responsible that requiring a typo-fix to be
backported as well.
The last change is a small semantic cleanup introducing
/proc/thread-self and pointing /proc/mounts and /proc/net at it. This
prevents several kinds of problemantic corner cases. It is a
user-visible change so it has a minute chance of causing regressions
so the change to /proc/mounts and /proc/net are individual one line
commits that can be trivially reverted. Unfortunately I lost and
could not find the email of the original reporter so he is not
credited. From at least one perspective this change to /proc/net is a
refgression fix to allow pthread /proc/net uses that were broken by
the introduction of the network namespace"

Setting SEAL_WRITE is not possible if there're pending GUP users. This
commit adds selftests for memfd+sealing that use FUSE to create pending

direct-IO operations for an arbitrary amount of time. This way, we can
force the kernel to pin pages and then run our normal selftests.

broken for quite a few versions already and nobody noticed. Nobody
uses those machines anymore. While at it, he cleaned up a bunch of
old dusty cabinets, getting rid of a skeletton or two.
Then, we have some base VFIO support for KVM, which allows assigning
of PCI devices to KVM guests, support for large 64-bit BARs on
"powernv" platforms, support for HMI (Hardware Management Interrupts)
on those same platforms, some sparse-vmemmap improvements (for memory

Here's the big driver-core pull request for 3.17-rc1.
Largest thing in here is the dma-buf rework and fence code, that touched
many different subsystems so it was agreed it should go through this
tree to handle merge issues. There's also some firmware loading
updates, as well as tests added, and a few other tiny changes, the
changelog has the details.
All have been in linux-next for a long time.

Kenton Varda <kenton@sandstorm.io> discovered that by remounting a
read-only bind mount read-only in a user namespace the
MNT_LOCK_READONLY bit would be cleared, allowing an unprivileged user
to the remount a read-only mount read-write.
Upon review of the code in remount it was discovered that the code allowed
nosuid, noexec, and nodev to be cleared. It was also discovered that
the code was allowing the per mount atime flags to be changed.
The first naive patch to fix these issues contained the flaw that using
default atime settings when remounting a filesystem could be disallowed.
To avoid this problems in the future add tests to ensure unprivileged
remounts are succeeding and failing at the appropriate times.

Although we expect some small discrepancies for very large counts, we
seem to be able to count up to 64 billion instructions without too much
skew, so do so.
Also switch to using decimals for the instruction counts. This just
makes it easier to visually compare the expected vs actual values, as
well as the raw result from instructions.
Before:
instructions: result 68719476753 running/enabled 13101961654

Have a task eat some cpu while we are counting instructions to create
some scheduler pressure. The idea being to try and unearth any bugs we
have in counting that only appear when context switching is happening.
