Pull timer fix from Ingo Molnar:
"Fix a sporadic missed timer hw reprogramming bug that can result in
random delays"
* 'timers-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
tick/nohz: Fix possible missing clock reprog after tick soft restart
ts->next_tick keeps track of the next tick deadline in order to optimize
clock programmation on irq exit and avoid redundant clock device writes.
Now if ts->next_tick missed an update, we may spuriously miss a clock
reprog later as the nohz code is fooled by an obsolete next_tick value.
This is what happens here on a specific path: when we observe an
expired timer from the nohz update code on irq exit, we perform a soft
tick restart which simply fires the closest possible tick without
actually exiting the nohz mode and restoring a periodic state. But we
forget to update ts->next_tick accordingly.
As a result, after the next tick resulting from such soft tick restart,
the nohz code sees a stale value on ts->next_tick which doesn't match
the clock deadline that just expired. If that obsolete ts->next_tick
value happens to collide with the actual next tick deadline to be
scheduled, we may spuriously bypass the clock reprogramming. In the
worst case, the tick may never fire again.
Fix this with a ts->next_tick reset on soft tick restart.

While supporting file-based address filters for CPU events requires some
extra context switch handling, kernel address filters are easy, since the
kernel mapping is preserved across address spaces. It is also useful as
it permits tracing scheduling paths of the kernel.
This patch allows setting up kernel filters for CPU events.

It is currently possible to configure a kernel address filter for a
event that excludes kernel from its traces (attr.exclude_kernel==1).
While in reality this doesn't make sense, the SET_FILTER ioctl() should
return a error in such case, currently it does not. Furthermore, it
will still silently discard the filter and any potentially valid filters
that came with it.
This patch makes the SET_FILTER ioctl() error out in such cases.

That's happening because each printk() call now gets printed on its own
line, and we do a separate call to print the spaces before the symbol.
Fix it by doing the printk() directly instead of using the
print_ip_sym() helper.

Pull irq fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
- Prevent double activation of interrupt lines, which causes problems
on certain interrupt controllers
- Handle the fallout of the above because x86 (ab)uses the activation
function to reconfigure interrupts under the hood.
* 'irq-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
x86/irq: Make irq activate operations symmetric
irqdomain: Avoid activating interrupts more than once
The modversion symbol CRCs are emitted as ELF symbols, which allows us
to easily populate the kcrctab sections by relying on the linker to
associate each kcrctab slot with the correct value.
This has a couple of downsides:
- Given that the CRCs are treated as memory addresses, we waste 4 bytes
for each CRC on 64 bit architectures,
- On architectures that support runtime relocation, a R_<arch>_RELATIVE
relocation entry is emitted for each CRC value, which identifies it
as a quantity that requires fixing up based on the actual runtime
load offset of the kernel. This results in corrupted CRCs unless we
explicitly undo the fixup (and this is currently being handled in the
core module code)
- Such runtime relocation entries take up 24 bytes of __init space
each, resulting in a x8 overhead in [uncompressed] kernel size for
CRCs.
Switching to explicit 32 bit values on 64 bit architectures fixes most
of these issues, given that 32 bit values are not treated as quantities
that require fixing up based on the actual runtime load offset. Note
that on some ELF64 architectures [such as PPC64], these 32-bit values
are still emitted as [absolute] runtime relocatable quantities, even if
the value resolves to a build time constant. Since relative relocations
are always resolved at build time, this patch enables MODULE_REL_CRCS on
powerpc when CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y, which turns the absolute CRC
references into relative references into .rodata where the actual CRC
value is stored.
So redefine all CRC fields and variables as u32, and redefine the
__CRC_SYMBOL() macro for 64 bit builds to emit the CRC reference using
inline assembler (which is necessary since 64-bit C code cannot use
32-bit types to hold memory addresses, even if they are ultimately
resolved using values that do not exceed 0xffffffff). To avoid
potential problems with legacy 32-bit architectures using legacy
toolchains, the equivalent C definition of the kcrctab entry is retained
for 32-bit architectures.
Note that this mostly reverts commit d4703aefdb ("module: handle ppc64
relocating kcrctabs when CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y")

The hwlat tracer creates a kernel thread at start of the tracer. It is
pinned to a single CPU and will move to the next CPU after each period of
running. If the user modifies the migration thread's affinity, it will not
change after that happens.
The original code created the thread at the first instance it was called,
but later was changed to destroy the thread after the tracer was finished,
and would not be created until the next instance of the tracer was
established. The code that initialized the affinity was only called on the
initial instantiation of the tracer. After that, it was not initialized, and
the previous affinity did not match the current newly created one, making
it appear that the user modified the thread's affinity when it did not, and
the thread failed to migrate again.

Since commit f3b0946d62 ("genirq/msi: Make sure PCI MSIs are
activated early"), we can end-up activating a PCI/MSI twice (once
at allocation time, and once at startup time).
This is normally of no consequences, except that there is some
HW out there that may misbehave if activate is used more than once
(the GICv3 ITS, for example, uses the activate callback
to issue the MAPVI command, and the architecture spec says that
"If there is an existing mapping for the EventID-DeviceID
combination, behavior is UNPREDICTABLE").
While this could be worked around in each individual driver, it may
make more sense to tackle the issue at the core level. In order to
avoid getting in that situation, let's have a per-interrupt flag
to remember if we have already activated that interrupt or not.

perf has additional overhead when monitoring the task which
frequently generates child tasks.
perf_init_event() is one of the hotspots for the additional overhead:
Currently, to get the PMU, it tries to search the type in pmu_idr at
first. But it is not always successful, especially for the widely used
PERF_TYPE_HARDWARE and PERF_TYPE_HW_CACHE events. So it has to go to the
slow path which go through the whole PMUs list.
It will be a big performance issue, if the PMUs list is long (e.g. server
with many uncore boxes) and the task frequently generates child tasks.
The child event inherits its parent event. So the child event should
try its parent PMU first.
Here is some data from the overhead test on Broadwell server:
perf record -e $TEST_EVENTS -- ./loop.sh 50000

all cpu groups and all task groups in order to preserve the priority
(cpu pinned, task pinned, cpu flexible, task flexible), but in

that of the events being added, and below.
This patch changes the behavior so that only groups that need to be

cpuctx->unique_pmu was originally introduced as a way to identify cpuctxs
with shared pmus in order to avoid visiting the same cpuctx more than once
in a for_each_pmu loop.
cpuctx->unique_pmu == cpuctx->pmu in non-software task contexts since they
have only one pmu per cpuctx. Since perf_pmu_sched_task() is only called in
hw contexts, this patch replaces cpuctx->unique_pmu by cpuctx->pmu in it.
The change above, together with the previous patch in this series, removed
the remaining uses of cpuctx->unique_pmu, so we remove it altogether.

This patch follows from a conversation in CQM/CMT's last series about
speeding up the context switch for cgroup events:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9478617/
This is a low-hanging fruit optimization. It replaces the iteration over
the "pmus" list in cgroup switch by an iteration over a new list that
contains only cpuctxs with at least one cgroup event.
This is necessary because the number of PMUs have increased over the years
e.g modern x86 server systems have well above 50 PMUs.
The iteration over the full PMU list is unneccessary and can be costly in
heavy cache contention scenarios.
Below are some instrumentation measurements with 10, 50 and 90 percentiles
of the total cost of context switch before and after this optimization for
a simple array read/write microbenchark.

Dmitry reported a KASAN use-after-free on event->group_leader.
It turns out there's a hole in perf_remove_from_context() due to
event_function_call() not calling its function when the task
associated with the event is already dead.
In this case the event will have been detached from the task, but the
grouping will have been retained, such that group operations might
still work properly while there are live child events etc.
This does however mean that we can miss a perf_group_detach() call
when the group decomposes, this in turn can then lead to
use-after-free.
Fix it by explicitly doing the group detach if its still required.

While refactoring cgroup creation, a5bca21520 ("cgroup: factor out
cgroup_create() out of cgroup_mkdir()") incorrectly onlined subsystems
before the new cgroup is associated with it kernfs_node. This is fine
for cgroup proper but cgroup_name/path() depend on the associated
kernfs_node and if a subsystem makes the new cgroup_subsys_state
visible, which they're allowed to after onlining, it can lead to NULL
dereference.
The current code performs cgroup creation and subsystem onlining in
cgroup_create() and cgroup_mkdir() makes the cgroup and subsystems
visible afterwards. There's no reason to online the subsystems early
and we can simply drop cgroup_apply_control_enable() call from
cgroup_create() so that the subsystems are onlined and made visible at
the same time.

On an overloaded system, it is possible that a change in the watchdog
threshold can be delayed long enough to trigger a false positive.
This can easily be achieved by having a cpu spinning indefinitely on a
task, while another cpu updates watchdog threshold.
What happens is while trying to park the watchdog threads, the hrtimers
on the other cpus trigger and reprogram themselves with the new slower
watchdog threshold. Meanwhile, the nmi watchdog is still programmed
with the old faster threshold.
Because the one cpu is blocked, it prevents the thread parking on the
other cpus from completing, which is needed to shutdown the nmi watchdog
and reprogram it correctly. As a result, a false positive from the nmi
watchdog is reported.
Fix this by setting a park_in_progress flag to block all lockups until
the parking is complete.
Fix provided by Ulrich Obergfell.

This patch adds two helpers, bpf_map_area_alloc() and bpf_map_area_free(),
that are to be used for map allocations. Using kmalloc() for very large
allocations can cause excessive work within the page allocator, so i) fall
back earlier to vmalloc() when the attempt is considered costly anyway,
and even more importantly ii) don't trigger OOM killer with any of the
allocators.
Since this is based on a user space request, for example, when creating
maps with element pre-allocation, we really want such requests to fail
instead of killing other user space processes.
Also, don't spam the kernel log with warnings should any of the allocations
fail under pressure. Given that, we can make backend selection in
bpf_map_area_alloc() generic, and convert all maps over to use this API
for spots with potentially large allocation requests.
Note, replacing the one kmalloc_array() is fine as overflow checks happen
earlier in htab_map_alloc(), since it must also protect the multiplication
for vmalloc() should kmalloc_array() fail.

Pull SMP hotplug update from Thomas Gleixner:
"This contains a trivial typo fix and an extension to the core code for
dynamically allocating states in the prepare stage.
The extension is necessary right now because we need a proper way to
unbreak LTTNG, which iscurrently non functional due to the removal of
the notifiers. Surely it's out of tree, but it's widely used by
distros.
The simple solution would have been to reserve a state for LTTNG, but
I'm not fond about unused crap in the kernel and the dynamic range,
which we admittedly should have done right away, allows us to remove
quite some of the hardcoded states, i.e. those which have no ordering
requirements. So doing the right thing now is better than having an
smaller intermediate solution which needs to be reworked anyway"

Since the mis-use of the RCU facility wasn't properly detected and

Commit 7bd509e311 ("bpf: add prog_digest and expose it via
fdinfo/netlink") was recently discussed, partially due to
admittedly suboptimal name of "prog_digest" in combination
with sha1 hash usage, thus inevitably and rightfully concerns
about its security in terms of collision resistance were
raised with regards to use-cases.
The intended use cases are for debugging resp. introspection
only for providing a stable "tag" over the instruction sequence
that both kernel and user space can calculate independently.
It's not usable at all for making a security relevant decision.
So collisions where two different instruction sequences generate
the same tag can happen, but ideally at a rather low rate. The
"tag" will be dumped in hex and is short enough to introspect
in tracepoints or kallsyms output along with other data such
as stack trace, etc. Thus, this patch performs a rename into
prog_tag and truncates the tag to a short output (64 bits) to
make it obvious it's not collision-free.
Should in future a hash or facility be needed with a security
relevant focus, then we can think about requirements, constraints,
etc that would fit to that situation. For now, rework the exposed
parts for the current use cases as long as nothing has been
released yet. Tested on x86_64 and s390x.

Mathieu reported that the LTTNG modules are broken as of 4.10-rc1 due to
the removal of the cpu hotplug notifiers.
Usually I don't care much about out of tree modules, but LTTNG is widely
used in distros. There are two ways to solve that:
1) Reserve a hotplug state for LTTNG
2) Add a dynamic range for the prepare states.
While #1 is the simplest solution, #2 is the proper one as we can convert
in tree users, which do not care about ordering, to the dynamic range as
well.
Add a dynamic range which allows LTTNG to request states in the prepare
stage.
