Yinghai Lu 2c6927a38f irq: replace loop with nr_irqs with for_each_irq_desc
There are a handful of loops that go from 0 to nr_irqs and use
get_irq_desc() on them. These would allocate all the irq_desc

Use the smarter for_each_irq_desc() iterator that will only iterate
over the present ones.

Yinghai Lu 08678b0841 generic: sparse irqs: use irq_desc() together with dyn_array, instead of irq_desc[]
add CONFIG_HAVE_SPARSE_IRQ to for use condensed array.
Get rid of irq_desc[] array assumptions.

Preallocate 32 irq_desc, and irq_desc() will try to get more.

( No change in functionality is expected anywhere, except the odd build
  failure where we missed a code site or where a crossing commit itroduces
  new irq_desc[] usage. )

v2: according to Eric, change get_irq_desc() to irq_desc()

Lai Jiangshan a6bebbc87a [PATCH] signal, procfs: some lock_task_sighand() users do not need rcu_read_lock()
lock_task_sighand() make sure task->sighand is being protected,
so we do not need rcu_read_lock().
[ exec() will get task->sighand->siglock before change task->sighand! ]

But code using rcu_read_lock() _just_ to protect lock_task_sighand()
only appear in procfs. (and some code in procfs use lock_task_sighand()
without such redundant protection.)

Other subsystem may put lock_task_sighand() into rcu_read_lock()
critical region, but these rcu_read_lock() are used for protecting
"for_each_process()", "find_task_by_vpid()" etc. , not for protecting
lock_task_sighand().

Ingo Molnar a5d8c3483a sched debug: add name to sched_domain sysctl entries
add /proc/sys/kernel/sched_domain/cpu0/domain0/name, to make
it easier to see which specific scheduler domain remained at
that entry.

Since we process the scheduler domain tree and
simplify it, it's not always immediately clear during debugging
which domain came from where.

depends on CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG=y.

Peter Zijlstra 2fb7635c4c sched: sync wakeups vs avg_overlap
While looking at the code I wondered why we always do:

  sync && avg_overlap < migration_cost

Which is a bit odd, since the overlap test was meant to detect sync wakeups
so using it to specialize sync wakeups doesn't make much sense.

Hence change the code to do:

  sync || avg_overlap < migration_cost

Dario Faggioli f6121f4f87 sched_rt.c: resch needed in rt_rq_enqueue() for the root rt_rq
While working on the new version of the code for SCHED_SPORADIC I
noticed something strange in the present throttling mechanism. More
specifically in the throttling timer handler in sched_rt.c
(do_sched_rt_period_timer()) and in rt_rq_enqueue().

The problem is that, when unthrottling a runqueue, rt_rq_enqueue() only
asks for rescheduling if the runqueue has a sched_entity associated to
it (i.e., rt_rq->rt_se != NULL).
Now, if the runqueue is the root rq (which has a rt_se = NULL)
rescheduling does not take place, and it is delayed to some undefined
instant in the future.

This imply some random bandwidth usage by the RT tasks under throttling.
For instance, setting rt_runtime_us/rt_period_us = 950ms/1000ms an RT
task will get less than 95%. In our tests we got something varying
between 70% to 95%.
Using smaller time values, e.g., 95ms/100ms, things are even worse, and
I can see values also going down to 20-25%!!

The tests we performed are simply running 'yes' as a SCHED_FIFO task,
and checking the CPU usage with top, but we can investigate thoroughly
if you think it is needed.

Things go much better, for us, with the attached patch... Don't know if
it is the best approach, but it solved the issue for us.

Thomas Gleixner 07454bfff1 clockevents: check broadcast tick device not the clock events device
Impact: jiffies increment too fast.

Hugh Dickins noted that with NOHZ=n and HIGHRES=n jiffies get
incremented too fast. The reason is a wrong check in the broadcast
enter/exit code, which keeps the local apic timer in periodic mode
when the switch happens.

Paul E. McKenney 2133b5d7ff rcu: RCU-based detection of stalled CPUs for Classic RCU
This patch adds stalled-CPU detection to Classic RCU.  This capability
is enabled by a new config variable CONFIG_RCU_CPU_STALL_DETECTOR, which
defaults disabled.

This is a debugging feature to detect infinite loops in kernel code, not
something that non-kernel-hackers would be expected to care about.

This feature can detect looping CPUs in !PREEMPT builds and looping CPUs
with preemption disabled in PREEMPT builds.  This is essentially a port of
this functionality from the treercu patch, replacing the stall debug patch
that is already in tip/core/rcu (commit 67182ae1c4).

The changes from the patch in tip/core/rcu include making the config
variable name match that in treercu, changing from seconds to jiffies to
avoid spurious warnings, and printing a boot message when this feature
is enabled.
