Some sysrq handlers can run for a long time, because they dump a lot of
data onto a serial console. Having RCU stall warnings pop up in the
middle of them only makes the problem worse.
This patch temporarily disables RCU stall warnings while a sysrq request
is handled.

Echoing values into /proc/sysrq-trigger seems to be a popular way to get
information out of the kernel. However, dumping information about
thousands of processes, or hundreds of CPUs to serial console can result
in IRQs being blocked for minutes, resulting in various kinds of cascade
failures.
The most common failure is due to interrupts being blocked for a very
long time. This can lead to things like failed IO requests, and other
things the system cannot easily recover from.
This problem is easily fixable by making __handle_sysrq use RCU instead
of spin_lock_irqsave.
This leaves the warning that RCU grace periods have not elapsed for a
long time, but the system will come back from that automatically.
It also leaves sysrq-from-irq-context when the sysrq keys are pressed,
but that is probably desired since people want that to work in
situations where the system is already hosed.
The callers of register_sysrq_key and unregister_sysrq_key appear to be
capable of sleeping.

Stuff in sysrq.c used to set it to 8 which is supposed to mean above
default level so set it to DEBUG instead as we're terminating/killing all
tasks and we want to be verbose there.
Also, correct the check in x86_64_start_kernel which should be >= as
we're clearly issuing the string there for all debug levels, not only

Some devices have too few buttons, which it makes it hard to have
a reset combo that won't trigger automatically. As such a
timeout functionality that requires the combination to be held for
a given amount of time before triggering is introduced.
If a key combo is recognized and held for a 'timeout' amount of time,
the system triggers a reset. If the timeout value is omitted the
driver simply ignores the functionality.

When taking an address of an extern array, gcc quite naturally should be
able to say "an address of an object can never be NULL" and just
optimize away the test entirely.
However, the new alternate sysrq reset code (commit 154b7a489a:
"Input: sysrq - allow specifying alternate reset sequence") did exactly
that, and declared platform_sysrq_reset_seq[] as a weak array, and
expecting that testing the address of the array would show whether it
actually got linked against something or not.
And that doesn't work with all gcc versions. Clearly it works with
*some* versions of gcc, and maybe it's even supposed to work, but it
really is a very fragile concept.
So instead of testing the address of the weak variable, just create a
weak instance of that array that is empty. If some platform then has a
real platform_sysrq_reset_seq[] that overrides our weak one, the linker
will switch to that one, and it all works without any run-time
conditionals at all.

This patch adds keyreset functionality to the sysrq driver. It allows
certain button/key combinations to be used in order to trigger emergency
reboots.
Redefining the '__weak platform_sysrq_reset_seq' variable is required
to trigger the feature. Alternatively keys can be passed to the driver
via a module parameter.
This functionality comes from the keyreset driver submitted by
Arve Hjønnevåg in the Android kernel.

Change send_sig_all() to use do_send_sig_info(SEND_SIG_FORCED) instead
of force_sig(SIGKILL). With the recent changes we do not need force_ to
kill the CLONE_NEWPID tasks.
And this is more correct. force_sig() can race with the exiting thread,
while do_send_sig_info(group => true) kill the whole process.
Some more notes from Oleg Nesterov:
> Just one note. This change makes no difference for sysrq_handle_kill().
> But it obviously changes the behaviour sysrq_handle_term(). I think
> this is fine, if you want to really kill the task which blocks/ignores
> SIGTERM you can use sysrq_handle_kill().
>
> Even ignoring the reasons why force_sig() is simply wrong here,
> force_sig(SIGTERM) looks strange. The task won't be killed if it has
> a handler, but SIG_IGN can't help. However if it has the handler

Also,
> force_sig() can't kill the process if the main thread has already
> exited. IOW, it is trivial to create the process which can't be

So, this patch fixes the issue.

The oom killer chooses not to kill a thread if:
- an eligible thread has already been oom killed and has yet to exit,
and
- an eligible thread is exiting but has yet to free all its memory and
is not the thread attempting to currently allocate memory.
SysRq+F manually invokes the global oom killer to kill a memory-hogging
task. This is normally done as a last resort to free memory when no
progress is being made or to test the oom killer itself.
For both uses, we always want to kill a thread and never defer. This
patch causes SysRq+F to always kill an eligible thread and can be used to
force a kill even if another oom killed thread has failed to exit.

Keyboard struct lifetime is easy, but the locking is not and is completely
ignored by the existing code. Tackle this one head on
- Make the kbd_table private so we can run down all direct users
- Hoick the relevant ioctl handlers into the keyboard layer
- Lock them with the keyboard lock so they don't change mid keypress
- Add helpers for things like console stop/start so we isolate the poking
around properly
- Tweak the braille console so it still builds
There are a couple of FIXME locking cases left for ioctls that are so hideous
they should be addressed in a later patch. After this patch the kbd_table is
private and all the keyboard jiggery pokery is in one place.
This update fixes speakup and also a memory leak in the original.

Commit ddd588b5dd ("oom: suppress nodes that are not allowed from

resulted in build warnings on all architectures that implement their own
versions of show_mem():
lib/lib.a(show_mem.o): In function `show_mem':
show_mem.c:(.text+0x1f4): multiple definition of `show_mem'
arch/sparc/mm/built-in.o:(.text+0xd70): first defined here
The fix is to remove __show_mem() and add its argument to show_mem() in
all implementations to prevent this breakage.
Architectures that implement their own show_mem() actually don't do
anything with the argument yet, but they could be made to filter nodes
that aren't allowed in the current context in the future just like the
generic implementation.
