      A patch to give a better overview of the userland application stack usage, · 76ad5485
      Stefani Seibold authored 
      especially for embedded linux.

Currently you are only able to dump the main process/thread stack usage
which is showed in /proc/pid/status by the "VmStk" Value.  But you get no
information about the consumed stack memory of the the threads.

There is an enhancement in the /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/*maps and which marks
the vm mapping where the thread stack pointer reside with "[thread stack
xxxxxxxx]".  xxxxxxxx is the maximum size of stack.  This is a value
information, because libpthread doesn't set the start of the stack to the
top of the mapped area, depending of the pthread usage.

A sample output of /proc/<pid>/task/<tid>/maps looks like:

08048000-08049000 r-xp 00000000 03:00 8312       /opt/z
08049000-0804a000 rw-p 00001000 03:00 8312       /opt/z

a8084000-a8085000 rw-p 00014000 03:00 14462      /lib/libpthread.so.0
a8085000-a8088000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0
a8088000-a80a4000 r-xp 00000000 03:00 8317       /lib/ld-linux.so.2
a80a4000-a80a5000 r--p 0001b000 03:00 8317       /lib/ld-linux.so.2
a80a5000-a80a6000 rw-p 0001c000 03:00 8317       /lib/ld-linux.so.2
afaf5000-afb0a000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0          [stack]
ffffe000-fffff000 r-xp 00000000 00:00 0          [vdso]


Also there is a new entry "stack usage" in /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/status
which will you give the current stack usage in kb.

A sample output of /proc/self/status looks like:

Name:	cat
State:	R (running)
Tgid:	507
Pid:	507
.
.
.
CapBnd:	fffffffffffffeff
voluntary_ctxt_switches:	0
nonvoluntary_ctxt_switches:	0
Stack usage:	12 kB

I also fixed stack base address in /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/stat to the base
address of the associated thread stack and not the one of the main
process.  This makes more sense.

      The exiting sub-thread flushes /proc/pid only, but this doesn't buy too · 878ff729
      Oleg Nesterov authored 
      much: ps and friends mostly use /proc/tid/task/pid.

Remove "if (thread_group_leader())" checks from proc_flush_task() path,
this means we always remove /proc/tid/task/pid dentry on exit, and this
actually matches the comment above proc_flush_task().

The test-case:

	static void* tfunc(void *arg)
	{
		char name[256];

		sprintf(name, "/proc/%d/task/%ld/status", getpid(), gettid());
		close(open(name, O_RDONLY));

		return NULL;
	}

	int main(void)
	{
		pthread_t t;

		for (;;) {
			if (!pthread_create(&t, NULL, &tfunc, NULL))
				pthread_join(t, NULL);
		}
	}

slabtop shows that pid/proc_inode_cache/etc grow quickly and
"indefinitely" until the task is killed or shrink_slab() is called, not
good.  And the main thread needs a lot of time to exit.

The same can happen if something like "ps -efL" runs continuously, while
some application spawns short-living threads.

      Enable the coretemp driver on an Intel Atom. · d91fb8a3
      Michael Riepe authored 
      I'm not sure if the readings are correct, however - on my 330, the driver
reports values between 27 and 41 °C (with core1 being about 8°C hotter
than core0, given the same load).  Maybe the maximum temperature of 100 °C
is wrong for Atom CPUs.
