tracing updates for 6.4:
- User events are finally ready! After lots of collaboration between various parties, we finally locked down on a stable interface for user events that can also work with user space only tracing. This is implemented by telling the kernel (or user space library, but that part is user space only and not part of this patch set), where the variable is that the application uses to know if something is listening to the trace. There's also an interface to tell the kernel about these events, which will show up in the /sys/kernel/tracing/events/user_events/ directory, where it can be enabled. When it's enabled, the kernel will update the variable, to tell the application to start writing to the kernel. See https://lwn.net/Articles/927595/ - Cleaned up the direct trampolines code to simplify arm64 addition of direct trampolines. Direct trampolines use the ftrace interface but instead of jumping to the ftrace trampoline, applications (mostly BPF) can register their own trampoline for performance reasons. - Some updates to the fprobe infrastructure. fprobes are more efficient than kprobes, as it does not need to save all the registers that kprobes on ftrace do. More work needs to be done before the fprobes will be exposed as dynamic events. - More updates to references to the obsolete path of /sys/kernel/debug/tracing for the new /sys/kernel/tracing path. - Add a seq_buf_do_printk() helper to seq_bufs, to print a large buffer line by line instead of all at once. There's users in production kernels that have a large data dump that originally used printk() directly, but the data dump was larger than what printk() allowed as a single print. Using seq_buf() to do the printing fixes that. - Add /sys/kernel/tracing/touched_functions that shows all functions that was every traced by ftrace or a direct trampoline. This is used for debugging issues where a traced function could have caused a crash by a bpf program or live patching. - Add a "fields" option that is similar to "raw" but outputs the fields of the events. It's easier to read by humans. - Some minor fixes and clean ups. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iIoEABYIADIWIQRRSw7ePDh/lE+zeZMp5XQQmuv6qgUCZEr36xQccm9zdGVkdEBn b29kbWlzLm9yZwAKCRAp5XQQmuv6quZHAQCzuqnn2S8DsPd3Sy1vKIYaj0uajW5D Kz1oUJH4F0H7kgEA8XwXkdtfKpOXWc/ZH4LWfL7Orx2wJZJQMV9dVqEPDAE= =w0Z1 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'trace-v6.4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: - User events are finally ready!

For example, this is currently done during copy_process() and fanotify used pidfd_create(), which returns a pidfd that has already been made visibile in the caller's file descriptor table, but then closed it using close_fd().

Such user workers will run with the same credentials as the userspace process they were created from providing stronger security and accounting guarantees than the traditional override_creds() approach ever could've hoped for. The original work was heavily based and optimzed for the needs of io_uring which was the first user. However, as it quickly turned out the ability to create user workers inherting properties from a userspace process is generally useful. The vhost subsystem currently creates workers using the kthread api. The consequences of using the kthread api are that RLIMITs don't work correctly as they are inherited from khtreadd. This leads to bugs where more workers are created than would be allowed by the RLIMITs of the userspace process in lieu of which workers are created. Problems like this disappear with user workers created from the userspace processes for which they perform the work. In addition, providing this api allows vhost to remove additional complexity. For example, cgroup and mm sharing will just work out of the box with user workers based on the relevant userspace process instead of manually ensuring the correct cgroup and mm contexts are used. So the vhost subsystem should simply be made to use the same mechanism as io_uring. To this end the original mechanism used for create_io_thread() is generalized into user workers: - Introduce PF_USER_WORKER as a generic indicator that a given task is a user worker, i.e., a kernel task that was created from a userspace process. Now a PF_IO_WORKER thread is just a specialized version of PF_USER_WORKER. So io_uring io workers raise both flags. - Make copy_process() available to core kernel code - Extend struct kernel_clone_args with the following bitfields allowing to indicate to copy_process(): - to create a user worker (raise PF_USER_WORKER) - to not inherit any files from the userspace process - to ignore signals After all generic changes are in place the vhost subsystem implements a new dedicated vhost api based on user workers. Finally, vhost is switched to rely on the new api moving it off of kthreads. Thanks to Mike for sticking it out and making it through this rather arduous journey" * tag 'v6.4/kernel.user_worker' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux: vhost: use vhost_tasks for worker threads vhost: move worker thread fields to new struct vhost_task: Allow vhost layer to use copy_process fork: allow kernel code to call copy_process fork: Add kernel_clone_args flag to ignore signals fork: add kernel_clone_args flag to not dup/clone files fork/vm: Move common PF_IO_WORKER behavior to new flag kernel: Make io_thread and kthread bit fields kthread: Pass in the thread's name during creation kernel: Allow a kernel thread's name to be set in copy_process csky: Remove kernel_thread declaration |

sched: Fix performance regression introduced by mm_cid
Introduce per-mm/cpu current concurrency id (mm_cid) to fix a PostgreSQL
sysbench regression reported by Aaron Lu.
Keep track of the currently allocated mm_cid for each mm/cpu rather than
freeing them immediately on context switch. This eliminates most atomic
operations when context switching back and forth between threads
belonging to different memory spaces in multi-threaded scenarios (many
processes, each with many threads). The per-mm/per-cpu mm_cid values are
serialized by their respective runqueue locks.
Thread migration is handled by introducing invocation to
sched_mm_cid_migrate_to() (with destination runqueue lock held) in
activate_task() for migrating tasks. If the destination cpu's mm_cid is
unset, and if the source runqueue is not actively using its mm_cid, then
the source cpu's mm_cid is moved to the destination cpu on migration.
Introduce a task-work executed periodically, similarly to NUMA work,
which delays reclaim of cid values when they are unused for a period of
time.
Keep track of the allocation time for each per-cpu cid, and let the task
work clear them when they are observed to be older than
SCHED_MM_CID_PERIOD_NS and unused. This task work also clears all
mm_cids which are greater or equal to the Hamming weight of the mm
cidmask to keep concurrency ids compact.
Because we want to ensure the mm_cid converges towards the smaller
values as migrations happen, the prior optimization that was done when
context switching between threads belonging to the same mm is removed,
because it could delay the lazy release of the destination runqueue
mm_cid after it has been replaced by a migration. Removing this prior
optimization is not an issue performance-wise because the introduced
per-mm/per-cpu mm_cid tracking also covers this more specific case.

sched/numa: apply the scan delay to every new vma
Pach series "sched/numa: Enhance vma scanning", v3. The patchset proposes one of the enhancements to numa vma scanning suggested by Mel. This is continuation of [3]. Reposting the rebased patchset to akpm mm-unstable tree (March 1) Existing mechanism of scan period involves, scan period derived from per-thread stats. Process Adaptive autoNUMA [1] proposed to gather NUMA fault stats at per-process level to capture aplication behaviour better. During that course of discussion, Mel proposed several ideas to enhance current numa balancing. One of the suggestion was below Track what threads access a VMA. The suggestion was to use an unsigned long pid_mask and use the lower bits to tag approximately what threads access a VMA. Skip VMAs that did not trap a fault. This would be approximate because of PID collisions but would reduce scanning of areas the thread is not interested in. The above suggestion intends not to penalize threads that has no interest in the vma, thus reduce scanning overhead. V3 changes are mostly based on PeterZ comments (details below in changes) Summary of patchset: Current patchset implements: 1. Delay the vma scanning logic for newly created VMA's so that additional overhead of scanning is not incurred for short lived tasks (implementation by Mel) 2. Store the information of tasks accessing VMA in 2 windows. It is regularly cleared in (4*sysctl_numa_balancing_scan_delay) interval. The above time is derived from experimenting (Suggested by PeterZ) to balance between frequent clearing vs obsolete access data 3. hash_32 used to encode task index accessing VMA information 4. VMA's acess information is used to skip scanning for the tasks which had not accessed VMA Changes since V2: patch1: - Renaming of structure, macro to function, - Add explanation to heuristics - Adding more details from result (PeterZ) Patch2: - Usage of test and set bit (PeterZ) - Move storing access PID info to numa_migrate_prep() - Add a note on fainess among tasks allowed to scan (PeterZ) Patch3: - Maintain two windows of access PID information (PeterZ supported implementation and Gave idea to extend to N if needed) Patch4: - Apply hash_32 function to track VMA accessing PIDs (PeterZ) Changes since RFC V1: - Include Mel's vma scan delay patch - Change the accessing pid store logic (Thanks Mel) - Fencing structure / code to NUMA_BALANCING (David, Mel) - Adding clearing access PID logic (Mel) - Descriptive change log ( Mike Rapoport) Things to ponder over: ========================================== - Improvement to clearing accessing PIDs logic (discussed in-detail in patch3 itself (Done in this patchset by implementing 2 window history) - Current scan period is not changed in the patchset, so we do see frequent tries to scan. Relaxing scan period dynamically could improve results further.

mm: separate vma->lock from vm_area_struct
vma->lock being part of the vm_area_struct causes performance regression during page faults because during contention its count and owner fields are constantly updated and having other parts of vm_area_struct used during page fault handling next to them causes constant cache line bouncing. Fix that by moving the lock outside of the vm_area_struct. All attempts to keep vma->lock inside vm_area_struct in a separate cache line still produce performance regression especially on NUMA machines. Smallest regression was achieved when lock is placed in the fourth cache line but that bloats vm_area_struct to 256 bytes. Considering performance and memory impact, separate lock looks like the best option. It increases memory footprint of each VMA but that can be optimized later if the new size causes issues. Note that after this change vma_init() does not allocate or initialize vma->lock anymore. A number of drivers allocate a pseudo VMA on the stack but they never use the VMA's lock, therefore it does not need to be allocated. The future drivers which might need the VMA lock should use vm_area_alloc()/vm_area_free() to allocate the VMA.

mm/mmap: free vm_area_struct without call_rcu in exit_mmap
call_rcu() can take a long time when callback offloading is enabled. Its use in the vm_area_free can cause regressions in the exit path when multiple VMAs are being freed. Because exit_mmap() is called only after the last mm user drops its refcount, the page fault handlers can't be racing with it. Any other possible user like oom-reaper or process_mrelease are already synchronized using mmap_lock. Therefore exit_mmap() can free VMAs directly, without the use of call_rcu(). Expose __vm_area_free() and use it from exit_mmap() to avoid possible call_rcu() floods and performance regressions caused by it.

mm: add per-VMA lock and helper functions to control it
Introduce per-VMA locking. The lock implementation relies on a per-vma and per-mm sequence counters to note exclusive locking: - read lock - (implemented by vma_start_read) requires the vma (vm_lock_seq) and mm (mm_lock_seq) sequence counters to differ. If they match then there must be a vma exclusive lock held somewhere. - read unlock - (implemented by vma_end_read) is a trivial vma->lock unlock. - write lock - (vma_start_write) requires the mmap_lock to be held exclusively and the current mm counter is assigned to the vma counter. This will allow multiple vmas to be locked under a single mmap_lock write lock (e.g. during vma merging). The vma counter is modified under exclusive vma lock. - write unlock - (vma_end_write_all) is a batch release of all vma locks held. It doesn't pair with a specific vma_start_write! It is done before exclusive mmap_lock is released by incrementing mm sequence counter (mm_lock_seq). - write downgrade - if the mmap_lock is downgraded to the read lock, all vma write locks are released as well (effectivelly same as write unlock).

mm: enable maple tree RCU mode by default
Use the maple tree in RCU mode for VMA tracking.
The maple tree tracks the stack and is able to update the pivot
(lower/upper boundary) in-place to allow the page fault handler to write
to the tree while holding just the mmap read lock. This is safe as the
writes to the stack have a guard VMA which ensures there will always be a
NULL in the direction of the growth and thus will only update a pivot.
It is possible, but not recommended, to have VMAs that grow up/down
without guard VMAs. syzbot has constructed a testcase which sets up a VMA
to grow and consume the empty space. Overwriting the entire NULL entry
causes the tree to be altered in a way that is not safe for concurrent
readers; the readers may see a node being rewritten or one that does not
match the maple state they are using.
Enabling RCU mode allows the concurrent readers to see a stable node and
will return the expected result.

lazy tlb: shoot lazies, non-refcounting lazy tlb mm reference handling scheme
On big systems, the mm refcount can become highly contented when doing a lot of context switching with threaded applications. user<->idle switch is one of the important cases. Abandoning lazy tlb entirely slows this switching down quite a bit in the common uncontended case, so that is not viable. Implement a scheme where lazy tlb mm references do not contribute to the refcount, instead they get explicitly removed when the refcount reaches zero. The final mmdrop() sends IPIs to all CPUs in the mm_cpumask and they switch away from this mm to init_mm if it was being used as the lazy tlb mm. Enabling the shoot lazies option therefore requires that the arch ensures that mm_cpumask contains all CPUs that could possibly be using mm. A DEBUG_VM option IPIs every CPU in the system after this to ensure there are no references remaining before the mm is freed. Shootdown IPIs cost could be an issue, but they have not been observed to be a serious problem with this scheme, because short-lived processes tend not to migrate CPUs much, therefore they don't get much chance to leave lazy tlb mm references on remote CPUs. There are a lot of options to reduce them if necessary, described in comments. The near-worst-case can be benchmarked with will-it-scale: context_switch1_threads -t $(($(nproc) / 2)) This will create nproc threads (nproc / 2 switching pairs) all sharing the same mm that spread over all CPUs so each CPU does thread->idle->thread switching. [ Rik came up with basically the same idea a few years ago, so credit to him for that. ] Link: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20230118080011.2258375-1-npiggin@gmail.com/ Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20180728215357.3249-11-riel@surriel.com/ Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20230203071837.1136453-5-npiggin@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@gmail.com> Acked-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org> Cc: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Cc: Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@csgroup.eu> Cc: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com> Cc: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> Cc: Nadav Amit <nadav.amit@gmail.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Rik van Riel <riel@redhat.com> Cc: Will Deacon <will@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> |

fork: add kernel_clone_args flag to not dup/clone files
Each vhost device gets a thread that is used to perform IO and management operations. Instead of a thread that is accessing a device, the thread is part of the device, so when it creates a thread using a helper based on copy_process we can't dup or clone the parent's files/FDS because it would do an extra increment on ourself. Later, when we do: Qemu process exits: do_exit -> exit_files -> put_files_struct -> close_files we would leak the device's resources because of that extra refcount on the fd or file_struct. This patch adds a no_files option so these worker threads can prevent taking an extra refcount on themselves.

kernel/fork: convert vma assignment to a memcpy
Patch series "introduce vm_flags modifier functions", v4. This patchset was originally published as a part of per-VMA locking [1] and was split after suggestion that it's viable on its own and to facilitate the review process. It is now a preprequisite for the next version of per-VMA lock patchset, which reuses vm_flags modifier functions to lock the VMA when vm_flags are being updated. VMA vm_flags modifications are usually done under exclusive mmap_lock protection because this attrubute affects other decisions like VMA merging or splitting and races should be prevented. Introduce vm_flags modifier functions to enforce correct locking. This patch (of 7): Convert vma assignment in vm_area_dup() to a memcpy() to prevent compiler errors when we add a const modifier to vma->vm_flags.

sched: Introduce per-memory-map concurrency ID
This feature allows the scheduler to expose a per-memory map concurrency ID to user-space. This concurrency ID is within the possible cpus range, and is temporarily (and uniquely) assigned while threads are actively running within a memory map. If a memory map has fewer threads than cores, or is limited to run on few cores concurrently through sched affinity or cgroup cpusets, the concurrency IDs will be values close to 0, thus allowing efficient use of user-space memory for per-cpu data structures. This feature is meant to be exposed by a new rseq thread area field. The primary purpose of this feature is to do the heavy-lifting needed by memory allocators to allow them to use per-cpu data structures efficiently in the following situations: - Single-threaded applications, - Multi-threaded applications on large systems (many cores) with limited cpu affinity mask, - Multi-threaded applications on large systems (many cores) with restricted cgroup cpuset per container. One of the key concern from scheduler maintainers is the overhead associated with additional spin locks or atomic operations in the scheduler fast-path. This is why the following optimization is implemented. On context switch between threads belonging to the same memory map, transfer the mm_cid from prev to next without any atomic ops. This takes care of use-cases involving frequent context switch between threads belonging to the same memory map. Additional optimizations can be done if the spin locks added when context switching between threads belonging to different memory maps end up being a performance bottleneck. Those are left out of this patch though. A performance impact would have to be clearly demonstrated to justify the added complexity. The credit goes to Paul Turner (Google) for the original virtual cpu id idea. This feature is implemented based on the discussions with Paul Turner and Peter Oskolkov (Google), but I took the liberty to implement scheduler fast-path optimizations and my own NUMA-awareness scheme. The rumor has it that Google have been running a rseq vcpu_id extension internally in production for a year. The tcmalloc source code indeed has comments hinting at a vcpu_id prototype extension to the rseq system call [1]. The following benchmarks do not show any significant overhead added to the scheduler context switch by this feature: * perf bench sched messaging (process) Baseline: 86.5±0.3 ms With mm_cid: 86.7±2.6 ms * perf bench sched messaging (threaded) Baseline: 84.3±3.0 ms With mm_cid: 84.7±2.6 ms * hackbench (process) Baseline: 82.9±2.7 ms With mm_cid: 82.9±2.9 ms * hackbench (threaded) Baseline: 85.2±2.6 ms With mm_cid: 84.4±2.9 ms [1] https://github.com/google/tcmalloc/blob/master/tcmalloc/internal/linux_syscall_support.h#L26 Signed-off-by: Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20221122203932.231377-8-mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com |

I'll have a "late" 6.1-rc1 pull for you that removes the now unused prandom_u32_max() function, just in case any other trees add a new use case of it that needs to converted. According to linux-next, there may be two trivial cases of prandom_u32_max() reintroductions that are fixable with a 's/.../.../'. So I'll have for you a final conversion patch doing that alongside the removal patch during the second week. This is a treewide change that touches many files throughout. - More consistent use of get_random_canary(). - Updates to comments, documentation, tests, headers, and simplification in configuration. - The arch_get_random*_early() abstraction was only used by arm64 and wasn't entirely useful, so this has been replaced by code that works in all relevant contexts. - The kernel will use and manage random seeds in non-volatile EFI variables, refreshing a variable with a fresh seed when the RNG is initialized. The RNG GUID namespace is then hidden from efivarfs to prevent accidental leakage. These changes are split into random.c infrastructure code used in the EFI subsystem, in this pull request, and related support inside of EFISTUB, in Ard's EFI tree. These are co-dependent for full functionality, but the order of merging doesn't matter. - Part of the infrastructure added for the EFI support is also used for an improvement to the way vsprintf initializes its siphash key, replacing an sleep loop wart. - The hardware RNG framework now always calls its correct random.c input function, add_hwgenerator_randomness(), rather than sometimes going through helpers better suited for other cases. - The add_latent_entropy() function has long been called from the fork handler, but is a no-op when the latent entropy gcc plugin isn't used, which is fine for the purposes of latent entropy. But it was missing out on the cycle counter that was also being mixed in beside the latent entropy variable. So now, if the latent entropy gcc plugin isn't enabled, add_latent_entropy() will expand to a call to add_device_randomness(NULL, 0), which adds a cycle counter, without the absent latent entropy variable. - The RNG is now reseeded from a delayed worker, rather than on demand when used. Always running from a worker allows it to make use of the CPU RNG on platforms like S390x, whose instructions are too slow to do so from interrupts. It also has the effect of adding in new inputs more frequently with more regularity, amounting to a long term transcript of random values. Plus, it helps a bit with the upcoming vDSO implementation (which isn't yet ready for 6.2). - The jitter entropy algorithm now tries to execute on many different CPUs, round-robining, in hopes of hitting even more memory latencies and other unpredictable effects. It also will mix in a cycle counter when the entropy timer fires, in addition to being mixed in from the main loop, to account more explicitly for fluctuations in that timer firing. And the state it touches is now kept within the same cache line, so that it's assured that the different execution contexts will cause latencies. * tag 'random-6.2-rc1-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/crng/random: (23 commits) random: include <linux/once.h> in the right header random: align entropy_timer_state to cache line random: mix in cycle counter when jitter timer fires random: spread out jitter callback to different CPUs random: remove extraneous period and add a missing one in comments efi: random: refresh non-volatile random seed when RNG is initialized vsprintf: initialize siphash key using notifier random: add back async readiness notifier random: reseed in delayed work rather than on-demand random: always mix cycle counter in add_latent_entropy() hw_random: use add_hwgenerator_randomness() for early entropy random: modernize documentation comment on get_random_bytes() random: adjust comment to account for removed function random: remove early archrandom abstraction random: use random.trust_{bootloader,cpu} command line option only stackprotector: actually use get_random_canary() stackprotector: move get_random_canary() into stackprotector.h treewide: use get_random_u32_inclusive() when possible treewide: use get_random_u32_{above,below}() instead of manual loop treewide: use get_random_u32_below() instead of deprecated function ... |

seccomp: Move copy_seccomp() to no failure path.
Our syzbot instance reported memory leaks in do_seccomp() [0], similar to the report [1]. It shows that we miss freeing struct seccomp_filter and some objects included in it. We can reproduce the issue with the program below [2] which calls one seccomp() and two clone() syscalls. The first clone()d child exits earlier than its parent and sends a signal to kill it during the second clone(), more precisely before the fatal_signal_pending() test in copy_process(). When the parent receives the signal, it has to destroy the embryonic process and return -EINTR to user space. In the failure path, we have to call seccomp_filter_release() to decrement the filter's refcount. Initially, we called it in free_task() called from the failure path, but the commit |

percpu_counter: add percpu_counter_sum_all interface
The percpu_counter is used for scenarios where performance is more important than the accuracy. For percpu_counter users, who want more accurate information in their slowpath, percpu_counter_sum is provided which traverses all the online CPUs to accumulate the data. The reason it only needs to traverse online CPUs is because percpu_counter does implement CPU offline callback which syncs the local data of the offlined CPU. However there is a small race window between the online CPUs traversal of percpu_counter_sum and the CPU offline callback. The offline callback has to traverse all the percpu_counters on the system to flush the CPU local data which can be a lot. During that time, the CPU which is going offline has already been published as offline to all the readers. So, as the offline callback is running, percpu_counter_sum can be called for one counter which has some state on the CPU going offline. Since percpu_counter_sum only traverses online CPUs, it will skip that specific CPU and the offline callback might not have flushed the state for that specific percpu_counter on that offlined CPU. Normally this is not an issue because percpu_counter users can deal with some inaccuracy for small time window. However a new user i.e. mm_struct on the cleanup path wants to check the exact state of the percpu_counter through check_mm(). For such users, this patch introduces percpu_counter_sum_all() which traverses all possible CPUs and it is used in fork.c:check_mm() to avoid the potential race. This issue is exposed by the later patch "mm: convert mm's rss stats into percpu_counter".

mm: convert mm's rss stats into percpu_counter
Currently mm_struct maintains rss_stats which are updated on page fault and the unmapping codepaths. For page fault codepath the updates are cached per thread with the batch of TASK_RSS_EVENTS_THRESH which is 64. The reason for caching is performance for multithreaded applications otherwise the rss_stats updates may become hotspot for such applications. However this optimization comes with the cost of error margin in the rss stats. The rss_stats for applications with large number of threads can be very skewed. At worst the error margin is (nr_threads * 64) and we have a lot of applications with 100s of threads, so the error margin can be very high. Internally we had to reduce TASK_RSS_EVENTS_THRESH to 32. Recently we started seeing the unbounded errors for rss_stats for specific applications which use TCP rx0cp. It seems like vm_insert_pages() codepath does not sync rss_stats at all. This patch converts the rss_stats into percpu_counter to convert the error margin from (nr_threads * 64) to approximately (nr_cpus ^ 2). However this conversion enable us to get the accurate stats for situations where accuracy is more important than the cpu cost. This patch does not make such tradeoffs - we can just use percpu_counter_add_local() for the updates and percpu_counter_sum() (or percpu_counter_sync() + percpu_counter_read) for the readers. At the moment the readers are either procfs interface, oom_killer and memory reclaim which I think are not performance critical and should be ok with slow read. However I think we can make that change in a separate patch.

stackprotector: move get_random_canary() into stackprotector.h
This has nothing to do with random.c and everything to do with stack protectors. Yes, it uses randomness. But many things use randomness. random.h and random.c are concerned with the generation of randomness, not with each and every use. So move this function into the more specific stackprotector.h file where it belongs. Acked-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Signed-off-by: Jason A. Donenfeld <Jason@zx2c4.com> |

fs/exec: switch timens when a task gets a new mm
Changing a time namespace requires remapping a vvar page, so we don't want
to allow doing that if any other tasks can use the same mm.
Currently, we install a time namespace when a task is created with a new
vm. exec() is another case when a task gets a new mm and so it can switch
a time namespace safely, but it isn't handled now.
One more issue of the current interface is that clone() with CLONE_VM isn't
allowed if the current task has unshared a time namespace
(timens_for_children doesn't match the current timens).
Both these issues make some inconvenience for users. For example, Alexey
and Florian reported that posix_spawn() uses vfork+exec and this pattern
doesn't work with time namespaces due to the both described issues.
LXC needed to workaround the exec() issue by calling setns.
