The following race is possible between bpf_timer_cancel_and_free
and bpf_timer_cancel. It will lead a UAF on the timer->timer.
bpf_timer_cancel();
spin_lock();
t = timer->time;
spin_unlock();
bpf_timer_cancel_and_free();
spin_lock();
t = timer->timer;
timer->timer = NULL;
spin_unlock();
hrtimer_cancel(&t->timer);
kfree(t);
/* UAF on t */
hrtimer_cancel(&t->timer);
In bpf_timer_cancel_and_free, this patch frees the timer->timer
after a rcu grace period. This requires a rcu_head addition
to the "struct bpf_hrtimer". Another kfree(t) happens in bpf_timer_init,
this does not need a kfree_rcu because it is still under the
spin_lock and timer->timer has not been visible by others yet.
In bpf_timer_cancel, rcu_read_lock() is added because this helper
can be used in a non rcu critical section context (e.g. from
a sleepable bpf prog). Other timer->timer usages in helpers.c
have been audited, bpf_timer_cancel() is the only place where
timer->timer is used outside of the spin_lock.
Another solution considered is to mark a t->flag in bpf_timer_cancel
and clear it after hrtimer_cancel() is done. In bpf_timer_cancel_and_free,
it busy waits for the flag to be cleared before kfree(t). This patch
goes with a straight forward solution and frees timer->timer after
a rcu grace period.

2f34d7337d ("workqueue: Fix queue_work_on() with BH workqueues") added
irq_work usage to workqueue; however, it turns out irq_work is actually
optional and the change breaks build on configuration which doesn't have
CONFIG_IRQ_WORK enabled.
Fix build by making workqueue use irq_work only when CONFIG_SMP and enabling
CONFIG_IRQ_WORK when CONFIG_SMP is set. It's reasonable to argue that it may
be better to just always enable it. However, this still saves a small bit of
memory for tiny UP configs and also the least amount of change, so, for now,
let's keep it conditional.
Verified to do the right thing for x86_64 allnoconfig and defconfig, and
aarch64 allnoconfig, allnoconfig + prink disable (SMP but nothing selects
IRQ_WORK) and a modified aarch64 Kconfig where !SMP and nothing selects
IRQ_WORK.
v2: `depends on SMP` leads to Kconfig warnings when CONFIG_IRQ_WORK is
selected by something else when !CONFIG_SMP. Use `def_bool y if SMP`
instead.

Waiting for an expedited grace period and polling for an expedited
grace period both are operations that internally rely on the same
workqueue performing necessary asynchronous work.
However, a dependency chain is involved between those two operations,
as depicted below:
====== CPU 0 ======= ====== CPU 1 =======
synchronize_rcu_expedited()
exp_funnel_lock()
mutex_lock(&rcu_state.exp_mutex);
start_poll_synchronize_rcu_expedited
queue_work(rcu_gp_wq, &rnp->exp_poll_wq);
synchronize_rcu_expedited_queue_work()
queue_work(rcu_gp_wq, &rew->rew_work);
wait_event() // A, wait for &rew->rew_work completion
mutex_unlock() // B
//======> switch to kworker
sync_rcu_do_polled_gp() {
synchronize_rcu_expedited()
exp_funnel_lock()
mutex_lock(&rcu_state.exp_mutex); // C, wait B
....
} // D
Since workqueues are usually implemented on top of several kworkers
handling the queue concurrently, the above situation wouldn't deadlock
most of the time because A then doesn't depend on D. But in case of
memory stress, a single kworker may end up handling alone all the works
in a serialized way. In that case the above layout becomes a problem
because A then waits for D, closing a circular dependency:
A -> D -> C -> B -> A
This however only happens when CONFIG_RCU_EXP_KTHREAD=n. Indeed
synchronize_rcu_expedited() is otherwise implemented on top of a kthread
worker while polling still relies on rcu_gp_wq workqueue, breaking the
above circular dependency chain.
Fix this with making expedited grace period to always rely on kthread
worker. The workqueue based implementation is essentially a duplicate
anyway now that the per-node initialization is performed by per-node
kthread workers.
Meanwhile the CONFIG_RCU_EXP_KTHREAD switch is still kept around to
manage the scheduler policy of these kthread workers.

When CONFIG_RCU_EXP_KTHREAD=n, the expedited grace period per node
initialization is performed in parallel via workqueues (one work per
node).
However in CONFIG_RCU_EXP_KTHREAD=y, this per node initialization is
performed by a single kworker serializing each node initialization (one
work for all nodes).
The second part is certainly less scalable and efficient beyond a single
leaf node.
To improve this, expand this single kworker into per-node kworkers. This
new layout is eventually intended to remove the workqueues based
implementation since it will essentially now become duplicate code.

Currently the call_rcu() function interleaves NOCB and !NOCB enqueue
code in a complicated way such that:
* The bypass enqueue code may or may not have enqueued and may or may
not have locked the ->nocb_lock. Everything that follows is in a
Schrödinger locking state for the unwary reviewer's eyes.
* The was_alldone is always set but only used in NOCB related code.
* The NOCB wake up is distantly related to the locking hopefully
performed by the bypass enqueue code that did not enqueue on the
bypass list.
Unconfuse the whole and gather NOCB and !NOCB specific enqueue code to
their own functions.

Currently IRQs are disabled on call_rcu() and then depending on the
context:
* If the CPU is in nocb mode:
- If the callback is enqueued in the bypass list, IRQs are re-enabled
implictly by rcu_nocb_try_bypass()
- If the callback is enqueued in the normal list, IRQs are re-enabled
implicitly by __call_rcu_nocb_wake()
* If the CPU is NOT in nocb mode, IRQs are reenabled explicitly from call_rcu()
This makes the code a bit hard to follow, especially as it interleaves
with nocb locking.
To make the IRQ flags coverage clearer and also in order to prepare for
moving all the nocb enqueue code to its own function, always re-enable
the IRQ flags explicitly from call_rcu().

A full barrier is issued from nocb_gp_wait() upon callbacks advancing
to order grace period completion with callbacks execution.
However these two events are already ordered by the
smp_mb__after_unlock_lock() barrier within the call to
raw_spin_lock_rcu_node() that is necessary for callbacks advancing to
happen.
The following litmus test shows the kind of guarantee that this barrier
provides:
C smp_mb__after_unlock_lock
{}
// rcu_gp_cleanup()
P0(spinlock_t *rnp_lock, int *gpnum)
{
// Grace period cleanup increase gp sequence number
spin_lock(rnp_lock);
WRITE_ONCE(*gpnum, 1);
spin_unlock(rnp_lock);
}
// nocb_gp_wait()
P1(spinlock_t *rnp_lock, spinlock_t *nocb_lock, int *gpnum, int *cb_ready)
{
int r1;
// Call rcu_advance_cbs() from nocb_gp_wait()
spin_lock(nocb_lock);
spin_lock(rnp_lock);
smp_mb__after_unlock_lock();
r1 = READ_ONCE(*gpnum);
WRITE_ONCE(*cb_ready, 1);
spin_unlock(rnp_lock);
spin_unlock(nocb_lock);
}
// nocb_cb_wait()
P2(spinlock_t *nocb_lock, int *cb_ready, int *cb_executed)
{
int r2;
// rcu_do_batch() -> rcu_segcblist_extract_done_cbs()
spin_lock(nocb_lock);
r2 = READ_ONCE(*cb_ready);
spin_unlock(nocb_lock);
// Actual callback execution
WRITE_ONCE(*cb_executed, 1);
}
P3(int *cb_executed, int *gpnum)
{
int r3;
WRITE_ONCE(*cb_executed, 2);
smp_mb();
r3 = READ_ONCE(*gpnum);
}
exists (1:r1=1 /\ 2:r2=1 /\ cb_executed=2 /\ 3:r3=0) (* Bad outcome. *)
Here the bad outcome only occurs if the smp_mb__after_unlock_lock() is
removed. This barrier orders the grace period completion against
callbacks advancing and even later callbacks invocation, thanks to the
opportunistic propagation via the ->nocb_lock to nocb_cb_wait().
Therefore the smp_mb() placed after callbacks advancing can be safely
removed.

The LOAD-ACQUIRE access performed on rdp->nocb_cb_sleep advertizes
ordering callback execution against grace period completion. However
this is contradicted by the following:
* This LOAD-ACQUIRE doesn't pair with anything. The only counterpart
barrier that can be found is the smp_mb() placed after callbacks
advancing in nocb_gp_wait(). However the barrier is placed _after_
->nocb_cb_sleep write.
* Callbacks can be concurrently advanced between the LOAD-ACQUIRE on
->nocb_cb_sleep and the call to rcu_segcblist_extract_done_cbs() in
rcu_do_batch(), making any ordering based on ->nocb_cb_sleep broken.
* Both rcu_segcblist_extract_done_cbs() and rcu_advance_cbs() are called
under the nocb_lock, the latter hereby providing already the desired
ACQUIRE semantics.
Therefore it is safe to access ->nocb_cb_sleep with a simple compiler
barrier.

Async can schedule a number of interdependent work items. However, since

the number of interdependent work items that can be handled. This default

resume from suspend in some cases.
Let's use a dedicated unbound workqueue with raised min_active.

When there's other callbacks, a helper trampoline is called, to call all

tell the x86 specific code to call the direct trampoline. But this only
works if the ftrace_ops had WITH_REGS set. ARM does things differently
that does not require this. For now, set WITH_REGS if the arch supports
WITH_REGS (which ARM does not), and this makes it work for both ARM64 and

The saved_cmdlines is a cache that maps PIDs to COMMs that tracing can

file lists PIDs to COMMs so that the tracing tools can show an actual name
and not just a PID for each event. There's an array of PIDs that map to a
small set of saved COMM strings. The array is set to PID_MAX_DEFAULT which
is usually set to 32768. When a PID comes in, it will add itself to this
array along with the index into the COMM array (note if the system allows
more than PID_MAX_DEFAULT, this cache is similar to cache lines as an
update of a PID that has the same PID_MAX_DEFAULT bits set will flush out
another task with the same matching bits set).
A while ago, the size of this cache was changed to be dynamic and the
array was moved into a structure and created with kmalloc(). But this
new structure had the size of 131104 bytes, or 0x20020 in hex. As kmalloc
allocates in powers of two, it was actually allocating 0x40000 bytes
(262144) leaving 131040 bytes of wasted memory. The last element of this
structure was a pointer to the COMM string array which defaulted to just
saving 128 COMMs.
By changing the last field of this structure to a variable length string,
and just having it round up to fill the allocated memory, the default
size of the saved COMM cache is now 8190. This not only uses the wasted
space, but actually saves space by removing the extra allocation for the
COMM names.

tracing: Fix wasted memory in saved_cmdlines logic
ftrace: Fix DIRECT_CALLS to use SAVE_REGS by default
While looking at improving the saved_cmdlines cache I found a huge amount
of wasted memory that should be used for the cmdlines.
The tracing data saves pids during the trace. At sched switch, if a trace
occurred, it will save the comm of the task that did the trace. This is
saved in a "cache" that maps pids to comms and exposed to user space via
the /sys/kernel/tracing/saved_cmdlines file. Currently it only caches by
default 128 comms.
The structure that uses this creates an array to store the pids using
PID_MAX_DEFAULT (which is usually set to 32768). This causes the structure
to be of the size of 131104 bytes on 64 bit machines.
In hex: 131104 = 0x20020, and since the kernel allocates generic memory in
powers of two, the kernel would allocate 0x40000 or 262144 bytes to store
this structure. That leaves 131040 bytes of wasted space.
Worse, the structure points to an allocated array to store the comm names,
which is 16 bytes times the amount of names to save (currently 128), which
is 2048 bytes. Instead of allocating a separate array, make the structure
end with a variable length string and use the extra space for that.
This is similar to a recommendation that Linus had made about eventfs_inode names:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240130190355.11486-5-torvalds@linux-foundation.org/
Instead of allocating a separate string array to hold the saved comms,
have the structure end with: char saved_cmdlines[]; and round up to the
next power of two over sizeof(struct saved_cmdline_buffers) + num_cmdlines * TASK_COMM_LEN
It will use this extra space for the saved_cmdline portion.
Now, instead of saving only 128 comms by default, by using this wasted
space at the end of the structure it can save over 8000 comms and even
saves space by removing the need for allocating the other array.

The commit 60c8971899 ("ftrace: Make DIRECT_CALLS work WITH_ARGS

are multiple ftrace_ops at the same function, but since the x86 only
support to jump to direct_call from ftrace_regs_caller, when we set
the function tracer on the same target function on x86, ftrace-direct
does not work as below (this actually works on arm64.)
At first, insmod ftrace-direct.ko to put a direct_call on
'wake_up_process()'.

Commit 85f0ab43f9 ("kernel/workqueue: Bind rescuer to unbound
cpumask for WQ_UNBOUND") modified init_rescuer() to bind rescuer of
an unbound workqueue to the cpumask in wq->unbound_attrs. However
unbound_attrs->cpumask's of all workqueues are initialized to
cpu_possible_mask and will only be changed if it has the WQ_SYSFS flag
to expose a cpumask sysfs file to be written by users. So this patch
doesn't achieve what it is intended to do.
If an unbound workqueue is created after wq_unbound_cpumask is modified
and there is no more unbound cpumask update after that, the unbound
rescuer will be bound to all CPUs unless the workqueue is created
with the WQ_SYSFS flag and a user explicitly modified its cpumask
sysfs file. Fix this problem by binding directly to wq_unbound_cpumask
in init_rescuer().

Make sure rescuers affinity is updated every time a workqueue cpumask

Ordered workqueues does not currently follow changes made to the
global unbound cpumask because per-pool workqueue changes may break
the ordering guarantee. IOW, a work function in an ordered workqueue
may run on an isolated CPU.
This patch enables ordered workqueues to follow changes made to the
global unbound cpumask by temporaily plug or suspend the newly allocated
pool_workqueue from executing newly queued work items until the old
pwq has been properly drained. For ordered workqueues, there should
only be one pwq that is unplugged, the rests should be plugged.
This enables ordered workqueues to follow the unbound cpumask changes
like other unbound workqueues at the expense of some delay in execution
of work functions during the transition period.

This patch (of 2):
thread_group_cputime() does its own locking, we can safely shift
thread_group_cputime_adjusted() which does another for_each_thread loop
outside of ->siglock protected section.
This is also preparation for the next patch which changes getrusage() to
use stats_lock instead of siglock, thread_group_cputime() takes the same
lock. With the current implementation recursive read_seqbegin_or_lock()
is fine, thread_group_cputime() can't enter the slow mode if the caller
holds stats_lock, yet this looks more safe and better performance-wise.

This reverts commit ca10d851b9.
The commit allowed workqueue_apply_unbound_cpumask() to clear __WQ_ORDERED
on now removed implicitly ordered workqueues. This was incorrect in that
system-wide config change shouldn't break ordering properties of all
workqueues. The reason why apply_workqueue_attrs() path was allowed to do so
was because it was targeting the specific workqueue - either the workqueue
had WQ_SYSFS set or the workqueue user specifically tried to change
max_active, both of which indicate that the workqueue doesn't need to be
ordered.
The implicitly ordered workqueue promotion was removed by the previous
commit 3bc1e711c2 ("workqueue: Don't implicitly make UNBOUND workqueues w/
@max_active==1 ordered"). However, it didn't update this path and broke
build. Let's revert the commit which was incorrect in the first place which

5c0338c687 ("workqueue: restore WQ_UNBOUND/max_active==1 to be ordered")
automoatically promoted UNBOUND workqueues w/ @max_active==1 to ordered
workqueues because UNBOUND workqueues w/ @max_active==1 used to be the way
to create ordered workqueues and the new NUMA support broke it. These
problems can be subtle and the fact that they can only trigger on NUMA
machines made them even more difficult to debug.
However, overloading the UNBOUND allocation interface this way creates other
issues. It's difficult to tell whether a given workqueue actually needs to
be ordered and users that legitimately want a min concurrency level wq
unexpectedly gets an ordered one instead. With planned UNBOUND workqueue
udpates to improve execution locality and more prevalence of chiplet designs
which can benefit from such improvements, this isn't a state we wanna be in
forever.
There aren't that many UNBOUND w/ @max_active==1 users in the tree and the
preceding patches audited all and converted them to
alloc_ordered_workqueue() as appropriate. This patch removes the implicit
promotion of UNBOUND w/ @max_active==1 workqueues to ordered ones.
v2: v1 patch incorrectly dropped !list_empty(&wq->pwqs) condition in
apply_workqueue_attrs_locked() which spuriously triggers WARNING and
fails workqueue creation. Fix it.

The only generic interface to execute asynchronously in the BH context is
tasklet; however, it's marked deprecated and has some design flaws such as
the execution code accessing the tasklet item after the execution is
complete which can lead to subtle use-after-free in certain usage scenarios
and less-developed flush and cancel mechanisms.
This patch implements BH workqueues which share the same semantics and
features of regular workqueues but execute their work items in the softirq
context. As there is always only one BH execution context per CPU, none of
the concurrency management mechanisms applies and a BH workqueue can be
thought of as a convenience wrapper around softirq.
Except for the inability to sleep while executing and lack of max_active
adjustments, BH workqueues and work items should behave the same as regular
workqueues and work items.
Currently, the execution is hooked to tasklet[_hi]. However, the goal is to
convert all tasklet users over to BH workqueues. Once the conversion is
complete, tasklet can be removed and BH workqueues can directly take over
the tasklet softirqs.
system_bh[_highpri]_wq are added. As queue-wide flushing doesn't exist in
tasklet, all existing tasklet users should be able to use the system BH
workqueues without creating their own workqueues.
v3: - Add missing interrupt.h include.
v2: - Instead of using tasklets, hook directly into its softirq action
functions - tasklet[_hi]_action(). This is slightly cheaper and closer
to the eventual code structure we want to arrive at. Suggested by Lai.
- Lai also pointed out several places which need NULL worker->task
handling or can use clarification. Updated.

- Factor out lockdep annotations in the flush paths into

from __flush_work() to its callee - start_flush_work(). This brings it

With this flag:
- pidfd_open() doesn't require that the target task must be
a thread-group leader
- pidfd_poll() succeeds when the task exits and becomes a
zombie (iow, passes exit_notify()), even if it is a leader
and thread-group is not empty.
This means that the behaviour of pidfd_poll(PIDFD_THREAD,
pid-of-group-leader) is not well defined if it races with
exec() from its sub-thread; pidfd_poll() can succeed or not
depending on whether pidfd_task_exited() is called before
or after exchange_tids().
Perhaps we can improve this behaviour later, pidfd_poll()
can probably take sig->group_exec_task into account. But
this doesn't really differ from the case when the leader
exits before other threads (so pidfd_poll() succeeds) and
then another thread execs and pidfd_poll() will block again.
thread_group_exited() is no longer used, perhaps it can die.

The return type for ring_buffer_poll_wait() is __poll_t. This is behind
the scenes an unsigned where we can set event bits. In case of a
non-allocated CPU, we do return instead -EINVAL (0xffffffea). Lucky us,
this ends up setting few error bits (EPOLLERR | EPOLLHUP | EPOLLNVAL), so
user-space at least is aware something went wrong.
Nonetheless, this is an incorrect code. Replace that -EINVAL with a
proper EPOLLERR to clean that output. As this doesn't change the
behaviour, there's no need to treat this change as a bug fix.

System workqueues are allocated early during boot from
workqueue_init_early(). While allocating unbound workqueues,
wq_update_node_max_active() is invoked from apply_workqueue_attrs() and
accesses NUMA topology to initialize wq->node_nr_active[].max.
However, topology information may not be set up at this point.
wq_update_node_max_active() is explicitly invoked from
workqueue_init_topology() later when topology information is known to be
available.
This doesn't seem to crash anything but it's doing useless work with dubious
data. Let's skip the premature and duplicate node_max_active updates by
initializing the field to WQ_DFL_MIN_ACTIVE on allocation and making
wq_update_node_max_active() noop until workqueue_init_topology().

When __queue_delayed_work() is called, it chooses a cpu for handling the
timer interrupt. As of today, it will pick either the cpu passed as
parameter or the last cpu used for this.
This is not good if a system does use CPU isolation, because it can take
away some valuable cpu time to:
1 - deal with the timer interrupt,
2 - schedule-out the desired task,
3 - queue work on a random workqueue, and
4 - schedule the desired task back to the cpu.
So to fix this, during __queue_delayed_work(), if cpu isolation is in
place, pick a random non-isolated cpu to handle the timer interrupt.
As an optimization, if the current cpu is not isolated, use it instead
of looking for another candidate.

A pool_workqueue (pwq) represents the connection between a workqueue and a
worker_pool. One of the roles that a pwq plays is enforcement of the
max_active concurrency limit. Before 636b927eba ("workqueue: Make unbound
workqueues to use per-cpu pool_workqueues"), there was one pwq per each CPU
for per-cpu workqueues and per each NUMA node for unbound workqueues, which
was a natural result of per-cpu workqueues being served by per-cpu pools and
unbound by per-NUMA pools.
In terms of max_active enforcement, this was, while not perfect, workable.
For per-cpu workqueues, it was fine. For unbound, it wasn't great in that
NUMA machines would get max_active that's multiplied by the number of nodes
but didn't cause huge problems because NUMA machines are relatively rare and
the node count is usually pretty low.
However, cache layouts are more complex now and sharing a worker pool across
a whole node didn't really work well for unbound workqueues. Thus, a series
of commits culminating on 8639ecebc9 ("workqueue: Make unbound workqueues
to use per-cpu pool_workqueues") implemented more flexible affinity
mechanism for unbound workqueues which enables using e.g. last-level-cache
aligned pools. In the process, 636b927eba ("workqueue: Make unbound
workqueues to use per-cpu pool_workqueues") made unbound workqueues use
per-cpu pwqs like per-cpu workqueues.
While the change was necessary to enable more flexible affinity scopes, this
came with the side effect of blowing up the effective max_active for unbound
workqueues. Before, the effective max_active for unbound workqueues was
multiplied by the number of nodes. After, by the number of CPUs.
636b927eba ("workqueue: Make unbound workqueues to use per-cpu
pool_workqueues") claims that this should generally be okay. It is okay for
users which self-regulates concurrency level which are the vast majority;
however, there are enough use cases which actually depend on max_active to
prevent the level of concurrency from going bonkers including several IO
handling workqueues that can issue a work item for each in-flight IO. With
targeted benchmarks, the misbehavior can easily be exposed as reported in
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/dbu6wiwu3sdhmhikb2w6lns7b27gbobfavhjj57kwi2quafgwl@htjcc5oikcr3.
Unfortunately, there is no way to express what these use cases need using
per-cpu max_active. A CPU may issue most of in-flight IOs, so we don't want
to set max_active too low but as soon as we increase max_active a bit, we
can end up with unreasonable number of in-flight work items when many CPUs
issue IOs at the same time. ie. The acceptable lowest max_active is higher
than the acceptable highest max_active.
Ideally, max_active for an unbound workqueue should be system-wide so that
the users can regulate the total level of concurrency regardless of node and
cache layout. The reasons workqueue hasn't implemented that yet are:
- One max_active enforcement decouples from pool boundaires, chaining
execution after a work item finishes requires inter-pool operations which
would require lock dancing, which is nasty.
- Sharing a single nr_active count across the whole system can be pretty
expensive on NUMA machines.
- Per-pwq enforcement had been more or less okay while we were using
per-node pools.
It looks like we no longer can avoid decoupling max_active enforcement from
pool boundaries. This patch implements system-wide nr_active mechanism with
the following design characteristics:
- To avoid sharing a single counter across multiple nodes, the configured
max_active is split across nodes according to the proportion of each
workqueue's online effective CPUs per node. e.g. A node with twice more
online effective CPUs will get twice higher portion of max_active.
- Workqueue used to be able to process a chain of interdependent work items
which is as long as max_active. We can't do this anymore as max_active is
distributed across the nodes. Instead, a new parameter min_active is
introduced which determines the minimum level of concurrency within a node
regardless of how max_active distribution comes out to be.
It is set to the smaller of max_active and WQ_DFL_MIN_ACTIVE which is 8.
This can lead to higher effective max_weight than configured and also
deadlocks if a workqueue was depending on being able to handle chains of
interdependent work items that are longer than 8.
I believe these should be fine given that the number of CPUs in each NUMA
node is usually higher than 8 and work item chain longer than 8 is pretty
unlikely. However, if these assumptions turn out to be wrong, we'll need
to add an interface to adjust min_active.
- Each unbound wq has an array of struct wq_node_nr_active which tracks
per-node nr_active. When its pwq wants to run a work item, it has to
obtain the matching node's nr_active. If over the node's max_active, the
pwq is queued on wq_node_nr_active->pending_pwqs. As work items finish,
the completion path round-robins the pending pwqs activating the first
inactive work item of each, which involves some pool lock dancing and
kicking other pools. It's not the simplest code but doesn't look too bad.
v4: - wq_adjust_max_active() updated to invoke wq_update_node_max_active().
- wq_adjust_max_active() is now protected by wq->mutex instead of
wq_pool_mutex.
v3: - wq_node_max_active() used to calculate per-node max_active on the fly
based on system-wide CPU online states. Lai pointed out that this can
lead to skewed distributions for workqueues with restricted cpumasks.
Update the max_active distribution to use per-workqueue effective
online CPU counts instead of system-wide and cache the calculation
results in node_nr_active->max.
v2: - wq->min/max_active now uses WRITE/READ_ONCE() as suggested by Lai.

Currently, for both percpu and unbound workqueues, max_active applies
per-cpu, which is a recent change for unbound workqueues. The change for
unbound workqueues was a significant departure from the previous behavior of
per-node application. It made some use cases create undesirable number of
concurrent work items and left no good way of fixing them. To address the
problem, workqueue is implementing a NUMA node segmented global nr_active
mechanism, which will be explained further in the next patch.
As a preparation, this patch introduces struct wq_node_nr_active. It's a
data structured allocated for each workqueue and NUMA node pair and
currently only tracks the workqueue's number of active work items on the
node. This is split out from the next patch to make it easier to understand
and review.
Note that there is an extra wq_node_nr_active allocated for the invalid node
nr_node_ids which is used to track nr_active for pools which don't have NUMA
node associated such as the default fallback system-wide pool.
This doesn't cause any behavior changes visible to userland yet. The next
patch will expand to implement the control mechanism on top.
v4: - Fixed out-of-bound access when freeing per-cpu workqueues.
v3: - Use flexible array for wq->node_nr_active as suggested by Lai.
v2: - wq->max_active now uses WRITE/READ_ONCE() as suggested by Lai.
- Lai pointed out that pwq_tryinc_nr_active() incorrectly dropped
pwq->max_active check. Restored. As the next patch replaces the
max_active enforcement mechanism, this doesn't change the end result.

complicated, so let's move them into helpers.
- pwq_tryinc_nr_active() is added. It increments nr_active if under
max_active limit and return a boolean indicating whether inc was
successful. Note that the function is structured to accommodate future
changes. __queue_work() is updated to use the new helper.
- pwq_activate_first_inactive() is updated to use pwq_tryinc_nr_active() and

- wq_adjust_max_active() no longer tests directly whether a work item can be
activated. Instead, it's updated to use the return value of
pwq_activate_first_inactive() to tell whether a work item has been
activated.
- nr_active decrement and activating the first inactive work item is
factored into pwq_dec_nr_active().
v3: - WARN_ON_ONCE(!WORK_STRUCT_INACTIVE) added to __pwq_activate_work() as

workqueue is collecting different sorts of enums into a single unnamed enum
type which can increase confusion around enum width. Also, unnamed enums
can't be accessed from BPF. Let's break up enum definitions according to
their purposes and give them type names.

After creating a new worker, create_worker() is calling kick_pool() to wake
up the new worker task. However, as kick_pool() doesn't do anything if there
is no work pending, it also calls wake_up_process() explicitly. There's no
reason to call kick_pool() at all. wake_up_process() is enough by itself.
Drop the unnecessary kick_pool() call.

Fix register_snapshot_trigger() to return error code if it failed to
allocate a snapshot instead of 0 (success). Unless that, it will register
snapshot trigger without an error.
