 * Implementation notes: (May 2010)
 * This file implements System V semaphores.
 *
 * User space visible behavior:
 * - FIFO ordering for semop() operations (just FIFO, not starvation
 *   protection)
 * - multiple semaphore operations that alter the same semaphore in
 *   one semop() are handled.
 * - sem_ctime (time of last semctl()) is updated in the IPC_SET, SETVAL and
 *   SETALL calls.
 * - two Linux specific semctl() commands: SEM_STAT, SEM_INFO.
 * - undo adjustments at process exit are limited to 0..SEMVMX.
 * - namespace are supported.
 * - SEMMSL, SEMMNS, SEMOPM and SEMMNI can be configured at runtine by writing
 *   to /proc/sys/kernel/sem.
 * - statistics about the usage are reported in /proc/sysvipc/sem.
 *
 * Internals:
 * - scalability:
 *   - all global variables are read-mostly.
 *   - semop() calls and semctl(RMID) are synchronized by RCU.
 *   - most operations do write operations (actually: spin_lock calls) to
 *     the per-semaphore array structure.
 *   Thus: Perfect SMP scaling between independent semaphore arrays.
 *         If multiple semaphores in one array are used, then cache line
 *         trashing on the semaphore array spinlock will limit the scaling.
 * - semncnt and semzcnt are calculated on demand in count_semncnt() and
 *   count_semzcnt()
 * - the task that performs a successful semop() scans the list of all
 *   sleeping tasks and completes any pending operations that can be fulfilled.
 *   Semaphores are actively given to waiting tasks (necessary for FIFO).
 *   (see update_queue())
 * - To improve the scalability, the actual wake-up calls are performed after
 *   dropping all locks. (see wake_up_sem_queue_prepare(),
 *   wake_up_sem_queue_do())
 * - All work is done by the waker, the woken up task does not have to do
 *   anything - not even acquiring a lock or dropping a refcount.
 * - A woken up task may not even touch the semaphore array anymore, it may
 *   have been destroyed already by a semctl(RMID).
 * - The synchronizations between wake-ups due to a timeout/signal and a
 *   wake-up due to a completed semaphore operation is achieved by using an
 *   intermediate state (IN_WAKEUP).
 * - UNDO values are stored in an array (one per process and per
 *   semaphore array, lazily allocated). For backwards compatibility, multiple
 *   modes for the UNDO variables are supported (per process, per thread)
 *   (see copy_semundo, CLONE_SYSVSEM)
 * - There are two lists of the pending operations: a per-array list
 *   and per-semaphore list (stored in the array). This allows to achieve FIFO
 *   ordering without always scanning all pending operations.
 *   The worst-case behavior is nevertheless O(N^2) for N wakeups.

 * - if queue.status is set after wake_up_process, then the woken up idle
 *   thread could race forward and try (and fail) to acquire sma->lock
 *   before update_queue had a chance to set queue.status
 * - if queue.status is written before wake_up_process and if the
 *   blocked process is woken up by a signal between writing
 *   queue.status and the wake_up_process, then the woken up
 *   process could return from semtimedop and die by calling
 *   sys_exit before wake_up_process is called. Then wake_up_process
 *   will oops, because the task structure is already invalid.
