2008-07-26task IO accounting: correctly account threads IO statisticsAndrea Righi
Oleg Nesterov points out that we should check that the task is still alive before we iterate over the threads. This patch includes a fixup for this. Also simplify do_io_accounting() implementation.

2008-07-26mm: print swapcache page count in show_swap_cache_info()Johannes Weiner
Every arch implements its own show_mem() function. Most of them share quite some code, some of them are completely identical. This series implements a generic version of this function and migrates almost all architectures to it. This patch: Most show_mem() implementations calculate the amount of pages within the swapcache every time. Move the output to a more appropriate place and use the anyway available total_swapcache_pages variable.

This adds /proc/PID/syscall and /proc/PID/task/TID/syscall magic files. These use task_current_syscall() to show the task's current system call number and argument registers, stack pointer and PC. For a task blocked but not in a syscall, the file shows "-1" in place of the syscall number, followed by only the SP and PC. For a task that's not blocked, it shows "running".

2008-07-26tracehook: CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_TRACEHOOKRoland McGrath
This adds the generic HAVE_ARCH_TRACEHOOK kconfig item. Each arch should add to some Kconfig file: select HAVE_ARCH_TRACEHOOK if the arch code uses all the latest hooks to enable newfangled tracing and debugging code. The comment in arch/Kconfig lists all the prerequisite arch support. When all these are available, setting HAVE_ARCH_TRACEHOOK will allow enabling any new features that depend on the modern arch interfaces.

2008-07-26tracehook: asm/syscall.hRoland McGrath
This adds asm-generic/syscall.h, which documents what a real asm-ARCH/syscall.h file should define. This is not used yet, but will provide all the machine-dependent details of examining a user system call about to begin, in progress, or just ended. Each arch should add an asm-ARCH/syscall.h that defines all the entry points documented in asm-generic/syscall.h, as short inlines if possible. This lets us write new tracing code that understands user system call registers, without any new arch-specific work.

2008-07-26tracehook: TIF_NOTIFY_RESUMERoland McGrath
This adds tracehook.h inlines to enable a new arch feature in support of user debugging/tracing. This is not used yet, but it lays the groundwork for a debugger to be able to wrangle a task that's possibly running, without interrupting its syscalls in progress. Each arch should define TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME, and in their entry.S code treat it much like TIF_SIGPENDING. That is, it causes you to take the slow path when returning to user mode, where you get the full user-mode state accessible as for signal handling or ptrace. The arch code should check TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME after handling TIF_SIGPENDING. When it's set, clear it and then call tracehook_notify_resume(). In future, tracing code will call set_notify_resume() when it wants to get a callback in tracehook_notify_resume().

2008-07-26tracehook: force signal_pending()Roland McGrath
This defines a new hook tracehook_force_sigpending() that lets tracing code decide to force TIF_SIGPENDING on in recalc_sigpending(). This is not used yet, so it compiles away to nothing for now. It lays the groundwork for new tracing code that can interrupt a task synthetically without actually sending a signal.

2008-07-26tracehook: deathRoland McGrath
This moves the ptrace logic in task death (exit_notify) into tracehook.h inlines. Some code is rearranged slightly to make things nicer. There is no change, only cleanup. There is one hook called with the tasklist_lock write-locked, as ptrace needs. There is also a new hook called after exit_state changes and without locks. This is a better place for tracing work to be in the future, since it doesn't delay the whole system with locking.

This defines the tracehook_notify_jctl() hook to formalize the ptrace effects on the job control notifications. There is no change, only cleanup.
