757dfcaa41 sched/rt: Fix rq's cpupri leak while enqueue/dequeue child RT entities
This patch touches the RT group scheduling case.

Functions inc_rt_prio_smp() and dec_rt_prio_smp() change (global) rq's
priority, while rt_rq passed to them may be not the top-level rt_rq.
This is wrong, because changing of priority on a child level does not
guarantee that the priority is the highest all over the rq. So, this
leak makes RT balancing unusable.

The short example: the task having the highest priority among all rq's
RT tasks (no one other task has the same priority) are waking on a
throttle rt_rq.  The rq's cpupri is set to the task's priority
equivalent, but real rq->rt.highest_prio.curr is less.

The patch below fixes the problem.

5d4cf996cf sched: Assign correct scheduling domain to 'sd_llc'
Commit 42eb088e (sched: Avoid NULL dereference on sd_busy) corrected a NULL
dereference on sd_busy but the fix also altered what scheduling domain it
used for the 'sd_llc' percpu variable.

One impact of this is that a task selecting a runqueue may consider
idle CPUs that are not cache siblings as candidates for running.
Tasks are then running on CPUs that are not cache hot.

This was found through bisection where ebizzy threads were not seeing equal
performance and it looked like a scheduling fairness issue. This patch
mitigates but does not completely fix the problem on all machines tested
implying there may be an additional bug or a common root cause. Here are
the average range of performance seen by individual ebizzy threads. It
was tested on top of candidate patches related to x86 TLB range flushing.

9dbdb15553 sched/fair: Rework sched_fair time accounting
Christian suffers from a bad BIOS that wrecks his i5's TSC sync. This
results in him occasionally seeing time going backwards - which
crashes the scheduler ...

Most of our time accounting can actually handle that except the most
common one; the tick time update of sched_fair.

There is a further problem with that code; previously we assumed that
because we get a tick every TICK_NSEC our time delta could never
exceed 32bits and math was simpler.

However, ever since Frederic managed to get NO_HZ_FULL merged; this is
no longer the case since now a task can run for a long time indeed
without getting a tick. It only takes about ~4.2 seconds to overflow
our u32 in nanoseconds.

This means we not only need to better deal with time going backwards;
but also means we need to be able to deal with large deltas.

This patch reworks the entire code and uses mul_u64_u32_shr() as
proposed by Andy a long while ago.

We express our virtual time scale factor in a u32 multiplier and shift
right and the 32bit mul_u64_u32_shr() implementation reduces to a
single 32x32->64 multiply if the time delta is still short (common
case).

For 64bit a 64x64->128 multiply can be used if ARCH_SUPPORTS_INT128.

843f4f4bb1 A regression showed up that there's a large delay when enabling
all events. This was prevalent when FTRACE_SELFTEST was enabled which
 enables all events several times, and caused the system bootup to
 pause for over a minute.
 
 This was tracked down to an addition of a synchronize_sched() performed
 when system call tracepoints are unregistered.
 
 The synchronize_sched() is needed between the unregistering of the
 system call tracepoint and a deletion of a tracing instance buffer.
 But placing the synchronize_sched() in the unreg of *every* system call
 tracepoint is a bit overboard. A single synchronize_sched() before
 the deletion of the instance is sufficient.

3ccb012392 tracing: Only run synchronize_sched() at instance deletion time
It has been reported that boot up with FTRACE_SELFTEST enabled can take a
very long time. There can be stalls of over a minute.

This was tracked down to the synchronize_sched() called when a system call
event is disabled. As the self tests enable and disable thousands of events,
this makes the synchronize_sched() get called thousands of times.

The synchornize_sched() was added with d562aff93b "tracing: Add support
for SOFT_DISABLE to syscall events" which caused this regression (added
in 3.13-rc1).

The synchronize_sched() is to protect against the events being accessed
when a tracer instance is being deleted. When an instance is being deleted
all the events associated to it are unregistered. The synchronize_sched()
makes sure that no more users are running when it finishes.

Instead of calling synchronize_sched() for all syscall events, we only
need to call it once, after the events are unregistered and before the
instance is deleted. The event_mutex is held during this action to
prevent new users from enabling events.

e605b36575 cgroup: fix cgroup_subsys_state leak for seq_files
If a cgroup file implements either read_map() or read_seq_string(),
such file is served using seq_file by overriding file->f_op to
cgroup_seqfile_operations, which also overrides the release method to
single_release() from cgroup_file_release().

Because cgroup_file_open() didn't use to acquire any resources, this
used to be fine, but since f7d58818ba ("cgroup: pin
cgroup_subsys_state when opening a cgroupfs file"), cgroup_file_open()
pins the css (cgroup_subsys_state) which is put by
cgroup_file_release().  The patch forgot to update the release path
for seq_files and each open/release cycle leaks a css reference.

Fix it by updating cgroup_file_release() to also handle seq_files and
using it for seq_file release path too.

Which reports that we take mems_allowed_seq with interrupts enabled. A
little digging found that this can only be from
cpuset_change_task_nodemask().

This is an actual deadlock because an interrupt doing an allocation will
hit get_mems_allowed()->...->__read_seqcount_begin(), which will spin
forever waiting for the write side to complete.

e6c390f2df sched: Add sched_class->task_dead() method
Add a new function to the scheduling class interface. It is called
at the end of a context switch, if the prev task is in TASK_DEAD state.

It will be useful for the scheduling classes that want to be notified
when one of their tasks dies, e.g. to perform some cleanup actions,
such as SCHED_DEADLINE.

192301e70a sched: Check TASK_DEAD rather than EXIT_DEAD in schedule_debug()
schedule_debug() ignores in_atomic() if prev->exit_state != 0.
This is not what we want, ->exit_state is set by exit_notify()
but we should complain until the task does the last schedule()
in TASK_DEAD.

See also 7407251a0e "PF_DEAD cleanup", I think this ancient
commit explains why schedule() had to rely on ->exit_state,
until that commit exit_notify() disabled preemption and set
PF_DEAD which was used to detect the exiting task.

32e475d76a sched: Expose preempt_schedule_irq()
Tony reported that aa0d532605 ("ia64: Use preempt_schedule_irq")
broke PREEMPT=n builds on ia64.

Ok, wrapped my brain around it. I tripped over the magic asm foo which
has a single need_resched check and schedule point for both sys call
return and interrupt return.

So you need the schedule_preempt_irq() for kernel preemption from
interrupt return while on a normal syscall preemption a schedule would
be sufficient. But using schedule_preempt_irq() is not harmful here in
any way. It just sets the preempt_active bit also in cases where it
would not be required.

Even on preempt=n kernels adding the preempt_active bit is completely
harmless. So instead of having an extra function, moving the existing
one out of the ifdef PREEMPT looks like the sanest thing to do.

It would also allow getting rid of various other sti/schedule/cli asm
magic in other archs.

The above mentioned commit didn't go far enough. Well, it covered the
function tracer by adding checks in __register_ftrace_function(). The
problem is that the function graph tracer circumvents that (for a slight
efficiency gain when function graph trace is running with a function
tracer. The gain was not worth this).

The problem came with ftrace_startup() which should always be called after
__register_ftrace_function(), if you want this bug to be completely fixed.

Anyway, this solution moves __register_ftrace_function() inside of
ftrace_startup() and removes the need to call them both.

ac01810c9d irq: Enable all irqs unconditionally in irq_resume
When the system enters suspend, it disables all interrupts in
suspend_device_irqs(), including the interrupts marked EARLY_RESUME.

On the resume side things are different. The EARLY_RESUME interrupts
are reenabled in sys_core_ops->resume and the non EARLY_RESUME
interrupts are reenabled in the normal system resume path.

When suspend_noirq() failed or suspend is aborted for any other
reason, we might omit the resume side call to sys_core_ops->resume()
and therefor the interrupts marked EARLY_RESUME are not reenabled and
stay disabled forever.

To solve this, enable all irqs unconditionally in irq_resume()
regardless whether interrupts marked EARLY_RESUMEhave been already
enabled or not.

This might try to reenable already enabled interrupts in the non
failure case, but the only affected platform is XEN and it has been
confirmed that it does not cause any side effects.

4e8b22bd1a workqueue: fix pool ID allocation leakage and remove BUILD_BUG_ON() in init_workqueues
When one work starts execution, the high bits of work's data contain
pool ID. It can represent a maximum of WORK_OFFQ_POOL_NONE. Pool ID
is assigned WORK_OFFQ_POOL_NONE when the work being initialized
indicating that no pool is associated and get_work_pool() uses it to
check the associated pool. So if worker_pool_assign_id() assigns a
ID greater than or equal WORK_OFFQ_POOL_NONE to a pool, it triggers
leakage, and it may break the non-reentrance guarantee.

This patch fix this issue by modifying the worker_pool_assign_id()
function calling idr_alloc() by setting @end param WORK_OFFQ_POOL_NONE.

Furthermore, in the current implementation, the BUILD_BUG_ON() in
init_workqueues makes no sense. The number of worker pools needed
cannot be determined at compile time, because the number of backing
pools for UNBOUND workqueues is dynamic based on the assigned custom
attributes. So remove it.

8a2b753844 workqueue: fix ordered workqueues in NUMA setups
An ordered workqueue implements execution ordering by using single
pool_workqueue with max_active == 1.  On a given pool_workqueue, work
items are processed in FIFO order and limiting max_active to 1
enforces the queued work items to be processed one by one.

Unfortunately, 4c16bd327c ("workqueue: implement NUMA affinity for
unbound workqueues") accidentally broke this guarantee by applying
NUMA affinity to ordered workqueues too.  On NUMA setups, an ordered
workqueue would end up with separate pool_workqueues for different
nodes.  Each pool_workqueue still limits max_active to 1 but multiple
work items may be executed concurrently and out of order depending on
which node they are queued to.

Fix it by using dedicated ordered_wq_attrs[] when creating ordered
workqueues.  The new attrs match the unbound ones except that no_numa
is always set thus forcing all NUMA nodes to share the default
pool_workqueue.

While at it, add sanity check in workqueue creation path which
verifies that an ordered workqueues has only the default
pool_workqueue.

e5fca243ab cgroup: use a dedicated workqueue for cgroup destruction
Since be44562613 ("cgroup: remove synchronize_rcu() from
cgroup_diput()"), cgroup destruction path makes use of workqueue.  css
freeing is performed from a work item from that point on and a later
commit, ea15f8ccdb ("cgroup: split cgroup destruction into two
steps"), moves css offlining to workqueue too.

As cgroup destruction isn't depended upon for memory reclaim, the
destruction work items were put on the system_wq; unfortunately, some
controller may block in the destruction path for considerable duration
while holding cgroup_mutex.  As large part of destruction path is
synchronized through cgroup_mutex, when combined with high rate of
cgroup removals, this has potential to fill up system_wq's max_active
of 256.

Also, it turns out that memcg's css destruction path ends up queueing
and waiting for work items on system_wq through work_on_cpu().  If
such operation happens while system_wq is fully occupied by cgroup
destruction work items, work_on_cpu() can't make forward progress
because system_wq is full and other destruction work items on
system_wq can't make forward progress because the work item waiting
for work_on_cpu() is holding cgroup_mutex, leading to deadlock.

This can be fixed by queueing destruction work items on a separate
workqueue.  This patch creates a dedicated workqueue -
cgroup_destroy_wq - for this purpose.  As these work items shouldn't
have inter-dependencies and mostly serialized by cgroup_mutex anyway,
giving high concurrency level doesn't buy anything and the workqueue's
@max_active is set to 1 so that destruction work items are executed
one by one on each CPU.

Hugh Dickins: Because cgroup_init() is run before init_workqueues(),
cgroup_destroy_wq can't be allocated from cgroup_init().  Do it from a
separate core_initcall().  In the future, we probably want to reorder
so that workqueue init happens before cgroup_init().

4be77398ac time: Fix 1ns/tick drift w/ GENERIC_TIME_VSYSCALL_OLD
Since commit 1e75fa8be9 (time: Condense timekeeper.xtime
into xtime_sec - merged in v3.6), there has been an problem
with the error accounting in the timekeeping code, such that
when truncating to nanoseconds, we round up to the next nsec,
but the balancing adjustment to the ntp_error value was dropped.

This causes 1ns per tick drift forward of the clock.

In 3.7, this logic was isolated to only GENERIC_TIME_VSYSCALL_OLD
architectures (s390, ia64, powerpc).

The fix is simply to balance the accounting and to subtract the
added nanosecond from ntp_error. This allows the internal long-term
clock steering to keep the clock accurate.

While this fix removes the regression added in 1e75fa8be9, the
ideal solution is to move away from GENERIC_TIME_VSYSCALL_OLD
and use the new VSYSCALL method, which avoids entirely the
nanosecond granular rounding, and the resulting short-term clock
adjustment oscillation needed to keep long term accurate time.

[ jstultz: Many thanks to Martin for his efforts identifying this
  	   subtle bug, and providing the fix. ]

78dc53c422 Merge branch 'for-linus2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jmorris/linux-security
Pull security subsystem updates from James Morris:
 "In this patchset, we finally get an SELinux update, with Paul Moore
  taking over as maintainer of that code.

  Also a significant update for the Keys subsystem, as well as
  maintenance updates to Smack, IMA, TPM, and Apparmor"

and since I wanted to know more about the updates to key handling,
here's the explanation from David Howells on that:

 "Okay.  There are a number of separate bits.  I'll go over the big bits
  and the odd important other bit, most of the smaller bits are just
  fixes and cleanups.  If you want the small bits accounting for, I can
  do that too.

   (1) Keyring capacity expansion.

        KEYS: Consolidate the concept of an 'index key' for key access
        KEYS: Introduce a search context structure
        KEYS: Search for auth-key by name rather than target key ID
        Add a generic associative array implementation.
        KEYS: Expand the capacity of a keyring

     Several of the patches are providing an expansion of the capacity of a
     keyring.  Currently, the maximum size of a keyring payload is one page.
     Subtract a small header and then divide up into pointers, that only gives
     you ~500 pointers on an x86_64 box.  However, since the NFS idmapper uses
     a keyring to store ID mapping data, that has proven to be insufficient to
     the cause.

     Whatever data structure I use to handle the keyring payload, it can only
     store pointers to keys, not the keys themselves because several keyrings
     may point to a single key.  This precludes inserting, say, and rb_node
     struct into the key struct for this purpose.

     I could make an rbtree of records such that each record has an rb_node
     and a key pointer, but that would use four words of space per key stored
     in the keyring.  It would, however, be able to use much existing code.

     I selected instead a non-rebalancing radix-tree type approach as that
     could have a better space-used/key-pointer ratio.  I could have used the
     radix tree implementation that we already have and insert keys into it by
     their serial numbers, but that means any sort of search must iterate over
     the whole radix tree.  Further, its nodes are a bit on the capacious side
     for what I want - especially given that key serial numbers are randomly
     allocated, thus leaving a lot of empty space in the tree.

     So what I have is an associative array that internally is a radix-tree
     with 16 pointers per node where the index key is constructed from the key
     type pointer and the key description.  This means that an exact lookup by
     type+description is very fast as this tells us how to navigate directly to
     the target key.

     I made the data structure general in lib/assoc_array.c as far as it is
     concerned, its index key is just a sequence of bits that leads to a
     pointer.  It's possible that someone else will be able to make use of it
     also.  FS-Cache might, for example.

   (2) Mark keys as 'trusted' and keyrings as 'trusted only'.

        KEYS: verify a certificate is signed by a 'trusted' key
        KEYS: Make the system 'trusted' keyring viewable by userspace
        KEYS: Add a 'trusted' flag and a 'trusted only' flag
        KEYS: Separate the kernel signature checking keyring from module signing

     These patches allow keys carrying asymmetric public keys to be marked as
     being 'trusted' and allow keyrings to be marked as only permitting the
     addition or linkage of trusted keys.

     Keys loaded from hardware during kernel boot or compiled into the kernel
     during build are marked as being trusted automatically.  New keys can be
     loaded at runtime with add_key().  They are checked against the system
     keyring contents and if their signatures can be validated with keys that
     are already marked trusted, then they are marked trusted also and can
     thus be added into the master keyring.

     Patches from Mimi Zohar make this usable with the IMA keyrings also.

   (3) Remove the date checks on the key used to validate a module signature.

        X.509: Remove certificate date checks

     It's not reasonable to reject a signature just because the key that it was
     generated with is no longer valid datewise - especially if the kernel
     hasn't yet managed to set the system clock when the first module is
     loaded - so just remove those checks.

   (4) Make it simpler to deal with additional X.509 being loaded into the kernel.

        KEYS: Load *.x509 files into kernel keyring
        KEYS: Have make canonicalise the paths of the X.509 certs better to deduplicate

     The builder of the kernel now just places files with the extension ".x509"
     into the kernel source or build trees and they're concatenated by the
     kernel build and stuffed into the appropriate section.

   (5) Add support for userspace kerberos to use keyrings.

        KEYS: Add per-user_namespace registers for persistent per-UID kerberos caches
        KEYS: Implement a big key type that can save to tmpfs

     Fedora went to, by default, storing kerberos tickets and tokens in tmpfs.
     We looked at storing it in keyrings instead as that confers certain
     advantages such as tickets being automatically deleted after a certain
     amount of time and the ability for the kernel to get at these tokens more
     easily.

     To make this work, two things were needed:

     (a) A way for the tickets to persist beyond the lifetime of all a user's
         sessions so that cron-driven processes can still use them.

         The problem is that a user's session keyrings are deleted when the
         session that spawned them logs out and the user's user keyring is
         deleted when the UID is deleted (typically when the last log out
         happens), so neither of these places is suitable.

         I've added a system keyring into which a 'persistent' keyring is
         created for each UID on request.  Each time a user requests their
         persistent keyring, the expiry time on it is set anew.  If the user
         doesn't ask for it for, say, three days, the keyring is automatically
         expired and garbage collected using the existing gc.  All the kerberos
         tokens it held are then also gc'd.

     (b) A key type that can hold really big tickets (up to 1MB in size).

         The problem is that Active Directory can return huge tickets with lots
         of auxiliary data attached.  We don't, however, want to eat up huge
         tracts of unswappable kernel space for this, so if the ticket is
         greater than a certain size, we create a swappable shmem file and dump
         the contents in there and just live with the fact we then have an
         inode and a dentry overhead.  If the ticket is smaller than that, we
         slap it in a kmalloc()'d buffer"

Pull networking fixes from David Miller:
 "Mostly these are fixes for fallout due to merge window changes, as
  well as cures for problems that have been with us for a much longer
  period of time"

 1) Johannes Berg noticed two major deficiencies in our genetlink
    registration.  Some genetlink protocols we passing in constant
    counts for their ops array rather than something like
    ARRAY_SIZE(ops) or similar.  Also, some genetlink protocols were
    using fixed IDs for their multicast groups.

    We have to retain these fixed IDs to keep existing userland tools
    working, but reserve them so that other multicast groups used by
    other protocols can not possibly conflict.

    In dealing with these two problems, we actually now use less state
    management for genetlink operations and multicast groups.

 2) When configuring interface hardware timestamping, fix several
    drivers that simply do not validate that the hwtstamp_config value
    is one the driver actually supports.  From Ben Hutchings.

 3) Invalid memory references in mwifiex driver, from Amitkumar Karwar.

 4) In dev_forward_skb(), set the skb->protocol in the right order
    relative to skb_scrub_packet().  From Alexei Starovoitov.

 5) Bridge erroneously fails to use the proper wrapper functions to make
    calls to netdev_ops->ndo_vlan_rx_{add,kill}_vid.  Fix from Toshiaki
    Makita.

 6) When detaching a bridge port, make sure to flush all VLAN IDs to
    prevent them from leaking, also from Toshiaki Makita.

 7) Put in a compromise for TCP Small Queues so that deep queued devices
    that delay TX reclaim non-trivially don't have such a performance
    decrease.  One particularly problematic area is 802.11 AMPDU in
    wireless.  From Eric Dumazet.

 8) Fix crashes in tcp_fastopen_cache_get(), we can see NULL socket dsts
    here.  Fix from Eric Dumzaet, reported by Dave Jones.

 9) Fix use after free in ipv6 SIT driver, from Willem de Bruijn.

10) When computing mergeable buffer sizes, virtio-net fails to take the
    virtio-net header into account.  From Michael Dalton.

11) Fix seqlock deadlock in ip4_datagram_connect() wrt.  statistic
    bumping, this one has been with us for a while.  From Eric Dumazet.

12) Fix NULL deref in the new TIPC fragmentation handling, from Erik
    Hugne.

13) 6lowpan bit used for traffic classification was wrong, from Jukka
    Rissanen.

14) macvlan has the same issue as normal vlans did wrt.  propagating LRO
    disabling down to the real device, fix it the same way.  From Michal
    Kubecek.

15) CPSW driver needs to soft reset all slaves during suspend, from
    Daniel Mack.

16) Fix small frame pacing in FQ packet scheduler, from Eric Dumazet.

17) The xen-netfront RX buffer refill timer isn't properly scheduled on
    partial RX allocation success, from Ma JieYue.

18) When ipv6 ping protocol support was added, the AF_INET6 protocol
    initialization cleanup path on failure was borked a little.  Fix
    from Vlad Yasevich.

19) If a socket disconnects during a read/recvmsg/recvfrom/etc that
    blocks we can do the wrong thing with the msg_name we write back to
    userspace.  From Hannes Frederic Sowa.  There is another fix in the
    works from Hannes which will prevent future problems of this nature.

c53ed74236 genetlink: only pass array to genl_register_family_with_ops()
As suggested by David Miller, make genl_register_family_with_ops()
a macro and pass only the array, evaluating ARRAY_SIZE() in the
macro, this is a little safer.

The openvswitch has some indirection, assing ops/n_ops directly in
that code. This might ultimately just assign the pointers in the
family initializations, saving the struct genl_family_and_ops and
code (once mcast groups are handled differently.)

42eb088ed2 sched: Avoid NULL dereference on sd_busy
Commit 37dc6b50ce ("sched: Remove unnecessary iteration over sched
domains to update nr_busy_cpus") forgot to clear 'sd_busy' under some
conditions leading to a possible NULL deref in set_cpu_sd_state_idle().

9abf24d465 sched: Check sched_domain before computing group power
After commit 863bffc808 ("sched/fair: Fix group power_orig
computation"), we can dereference rq->sd before it is set.

Fix this by falling back to power_of() in this case and add a comment
explaining things.

0022cedd4a perf/trace: Properly use u64 to hold event_id
The 64-bit attr.config value for perf trace events was being copied into
an "int" before doing a comparison, meaning the top 32 bits were
being truncated.

As far as I can tell this didn't cause any errors, but it did mean
it was possible to create valid aliases for all the tracepoint ids
which I don't think was intended.  (For example, 0xffffffff00000018
and 0x18 both enable the same tracepoint).

06db0b2171 perf: Remove fragile swevent hlist optimization
Currently we only allocate a single cpu hashtable for per-cpu
swevents; do away with this optimization for it is fragile in the face
of things like perf_pmu_migrate_context().

The easiest thing is to make sure all CPUs are consistent wrt state.

d5b5f391d4 ftrace, perf: Avoid infinite event generation loop
Vince's perf-trinity fuzzer found yet another 'interesting' problem.

When we sample the irq_work_exit tracepoint with period==1 (or
PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD) and we add an fasync SIGNAL handler we create an
infinite event generation loop:

  ,-> <IPI>
  |     irq_work_exit() ->
  |       trace_irq_work_exit() ->
  |         ...
  |           __perf_event_overflow() -> (due to fasync)
  |             irq_work_queue() -> (irq_work_list must be empty)
  '---------      arch_irq_work_raise()

Similar things can happen due to regular poll() wakeups if we exceed
the ring-buffer wakeup watermark, or have an event_limit.

To avoid this, dis-allow sampling this particular tracepoint.

In order to achieve this, create a special perf_perm function pointer
for each event and call this (when set) on trying to create a
tracepoint perf event.
