Eric Dumazet touched the surrounding code dealing with how mini

With USB, it's a case of the same bug fix first going into net-next

This is showing excessive migration activity even though excessive
migrations are meant to get throttled. Normally, the scan rate is tuned
on a per-task basis depending on the locality of faults. However, if
migrations fail for any reason then the PTE scanner may scan faster if
the faults continue to be remote. This means there is higher system CPU
overhead and fault trapping at exactly the time we know that migrations
cannot happen. This patch tracks when migration failures occur and
slows the PTE scanner.

The hrtimer mode of broadcast queues hrtimers in the idle entry
path so as to wakeup cpus in deep idle states. The associated
call graph is :
cpuidle_idle_call()
|____ clockevents_notify(CLOCK_EVT_NOTIFY_BROADCAST_ENTER, ....))
|_____tick_broadcast_set_event()
|____clockevents_program_event()
|____bc_set_next()
The hrtimer_{start/cancel} functions call into tracing which uses RCU.
But it is not legal to call into RCU in cpuidle because it is one of the
quiescent states. Hence protect this region with RCU_NONIDLE which informs
RCU that the cpu is momentarily non-idle.
As an aside it is helpful to point out that the clock event device that is
programmed here is not a per-cpu clock device; it is a
pseudo clock device, used by the broadcast framework alone.
The per-cpu clock device programming never goes through bc_set_next().

Module unload calls lockdep_free_key_range(), which removes entries
from the data structures. Most of the lockdep code OTOH assumes the
data structures are append only; in specific see the comments in
add_lock_to_list() and look_up_lock_class().
Clearly this has only worked by accident; make it work proper. The
actual scenario to make it go boom would involve the memory freed by
the module unlock being re-allocated and re-used for a lock inside of
a rcu-sched grace period. This is a very unlikely scenario, still
better plug the hole.
Use RCU list iteration in all places and ammend the comments.
Change lockdep_free_key_range() to issue a sync_sched() between
removal from the lists and returning -- which results in the memory
being freed. Further ensure the callers are placed correctly and
comment the requirements.

When non-realtime tasks get priority-inheritance boosted to a realtime
scheduling class, RLIMIT_RTTIME starts to apply to them. However, the
counter used for checking this (the same one used for SCHED_RR
timeslices) was not getting reset. This meant that tasks running with a
non-realtime scheduling class which are repeatedly boosted to a realtime
one, but never block while they are running realtime, eventually hit the
timeout without ever running for a time over the limit. This patch
resets the realtime timeslice counter when un-PI-boosting from an RT to
a non-RT scheduling class.
I have some test code with two threads and a shared PTHREAD_PRIO_INHERIT
mutex which induces priority boosting and spins while boosted that gets
killed by a SIGXCPU on non-fixed kernels but doesn't with this patch
applied. It happens much faster with a CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT kernel, and
does happen eventually with PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY kernels.

This happens because processing the perf irq_work triggers another

Avoid this by raising the recursion counter in the irq_work -- which
effectively disables all software events (including tracepoints) from

In order to prepare eBPF support for tc action, we need to add
sched_act_type, so that the eBPF verifier is aware of what helper
function act_bpf may use, that it can load skb data and read out
currently available skb fields.
This is bascially analogous to 96be4325f4 ("ebpf: add sched_cls_type
and map it to sk_filter's verifier ops").
BPF_PROG_TYPE_SCHED_CLS and BPF_PROG_TYPE_SCHED_ACT need to be
separate since both will have a different set of functionality in
future (classifier vs action), thus we won't run into ABI troubles
when the point in time comes to diverge functionality from the
classifier.
The future plan for act_bpf would be that it will be able to write
into skb->data and alter selected fields mirrored in struct __sk_buff.
For an initial support, it's sufficient to map it to sk_filter_ops.

livepatch: Fix subtle race with coming and going modules
Add a tuning knob so we can adjust the dirtytime expiration timeout,
which is very useful for testing lazytime.
Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
Reviewed-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>
There is a notifier that handles live patches for coming and going modules.
It takes klp_mutex lock to avoid races with coming and going patches but
it does not keep the lock all the time. Therefore the following races are
possible:
1. The notifier is called sometime in STATE_MODULE_COMING. The module
is visible by find_module() in this state all the time. It means that
new patch can be registered and enabled even before the notifier is
called. It might create wrong order of stacked patches, see below
for an example.
2. New patch could still see the module in the GOING state even after
the notifier has been called. It will try to initialize the related
object structures but the module could disappear at any time. There
will stay mess in the structures. It might even cause an invalid
memory access.
This patch solves the problem by adding a boolean variable into struct module.
The value is true after the coming and before the going handler is called.
New patches need to be applied when the value is true and they need to ignore
the module when the value is false.
Note that we need to know state of all modules on the system. The races are
related to new patches. Therefore we do not know what modules will get
patched.
Also note that we could not simply ignore going modules. The code from the
module could be called even in the GOING state until mod->exit() finishes.
If we start supporting patches with semantic changes between function
calls, we need to apply new patches to any still usable code.
See below for an example.
Finally note that the patch solves only the situation when a new patch is
registered. There are no such problems when the patch is being removed.
It does not matter who disable the patch first, whether the normal
disable_patch() or the module notifier. There is nothing to do
once the patch is disabled.
Alternative solutions:
======================
+ reject new patches when a patched module is coming or going; this is ugly
+ wait with adding new patch until the module leaves the COMING and GOING
states; this might be dangerous and complicated; we would need to release
kgr_lock in the middle of the patch registration to avoid a deadlock
with the coming and going handlers; also we might need a waitqueue for
each module which seems to be even bigger overhead than the boolean
+ stop modules from entering COMING and GOING states; wait until modules
leave these states when they are already there; looks complicated; we would
need to ignore the module that asked to stop the others to avoid a deadlock;
also it is unclear what to do when two modules asked to stop others and
both are in COMING state (situation when two new patches are applied)
+ always register/enable new patches and fix up the potential mess (registered
patches order) in klp_module_init(); this is nasty and prone to regressions
in the future development
+ add another MODULE_STATE where the kallsyms are visible but the module is not
used yet; this looks too complex; the module states are checked on "many"
locations
Example of patch stacking breakage:
===================================
The notifier could _not_ _simply_ ignore already initialized module objects.
For example, let's have three patches (P1, P2, P3) for functions a() and b()
where a() is from vmcore and b() is from a module M. Something like:
a() b()
P1 a1() b1()
P2 a2() b2()
P3 a3() b3(3)
If you load the module M after all patches are registered and enabled.
The ftrace ops for function a() and b() has listed the functions in this
order:
ops_a->func_stack -> list(a3,a2,a1)
ops_b->func_stack -> list(b3,b2,b1)
, so the pointer to b3() is the first and will be used.
Then you might have the following scenario. Let's start with state when patches
P1 and P2 are registered and enabled but the module M is not loaded. Then ftrace
ops for b() does not exist. Then we get into the following race:
CPU0 CPU1
load_module(M)
complete_formation()
mod->state = MODULE_STATE_COMING;
mutex_unlock(&module_mutex);
klp_register_patch(P3);
klp_enable_patch(P3);
# STATE 1
klp_module_notify(M)
klp_module_notify_coming(P1);
klp_module_notify_coming(P2);
klp_module_notify_coming(P3);
# STATE 2
The ftrace ops for a() and b() then looks:
STATE1:
ops_a->func_stack -> list(a3,a2,a1);
ops_b->func_stack -> list(b3);
STATE2:
ops_a->func_stack -> list(a3,a2,a1);
ops_b->func_stack -> list(b2,b1,b3);
therefore, b2() is used for the module but a3() is used for vmcore
because they were the last added.
Example of the race with going modules:
=======================================
CPU0 CPU1
delete_module() #SYSCALL
try_stop_module()
mod->state = MODULE_STATE_GOING;
mutex_unlock(&module_mutex);
klp_register_patch()
klp_enable_patch()
#save place to switch universe
b() # from module that is going
a() # from core (patched)
mod->exit();
Note that the function b() can be called until we call mod->exit().
If we do not apply patch against b() because it is in MODULE_STATE_GOING,
it will call patched a() with modified semantic and things might get wrong.

Current approach in handling shadow memory for modules is broken.
Shadow memory could be freed only after memory shadow corresponds it is no
longer used. vfree() called from interrupt context could use memory its
freeing to store 'struct llist_node' in it:
void vfree(const void *addr)
{
...
if (unlikely(in_interrupt())) {
struct vfree_deferred *p = this_cpu_ptr(&vfree_deferred);
if (llist_add((struct llist_node *)addr, &p->list))
schedule_work(&p->wq);
Later this list node used in free_work() which actually frees memory.
Currently module_memfree() called in interrupt context will free shadow
before freeing module's memory which could provoke kernel crash.
So shadow memory should be freed after module's memory. However, such
deallocation order could race with kasan_module_alloc() in module_alloc().
Free shadow right before releasing vm area. At this point vfree()'d
memory is not used anymore and yet not available for other allocations.
New VM_KASAN flag used to indicate that vm area has dynamically allocated
shadow memory so kasan frees shadow only if it was previously allocated.

I noticed that a helper function with argument type ARG_ANYTHING does
not need to have an initialized value (register).
This can worst case lead to unintented stack memory leakage in future
helper functions if they are not carefully designed, or unintended
application behaviour in case the application developer was not careful
enough to match a correct helper function signature in the API.
The underlying issue is that ARG_ANYTHING should actually be split
into two different semantics:
1) ARG_DONTCARE for function arguments that the helper function
does not care about (in other words: the default for unused
function arguments), and
2) ARG_ANYTHING that is an argument actually being used by a
helper function and *guaranteed* to be an initialized register.
The current risk is low: ARG_ANYTHING is only used for the 'flags'
argument (r4) in bpf_map_update_elem() that internally does strict
checking.

As well as with function tracing too. Pratyush Anand first reported
this issue to me and supplied a patch. When I tested this on my x86
test box, it caused thousands of backtraces and warnings to appear in
dmesg, which also caused a denial of service (a warning for every
function that was listed). I applied Pratyush's patch but it did not
fix the issue for me. I looked into it and found a slight problem
with trampoline accounting. I fixed it and sent Pratyush a patch, but
he said that it did not fix the issue for him.
I later learned tha Pratyush was using an ARM64 server, and when I tested
on my ARM board, I was able to reproduce the same issue as Pratyush.
After applying his patch, it fixed the problem. The above test uncovered
two different bugs, one in x86 and one in ARM and ARM64. As this looked
like it would affect PowerPC, I tested it on my PPC64 box. It too broke,
but neither the patch that fixed ARM or x86 fixed this box (the changes
were all in generic code!). The above test, uncovered two more bugs that
affected PowerPC. Again, the changes were only done to generic code.
It's the way the arch code expected things to be done that was different
between the archs. Some where more sensitive than others.
The rest of this series fixes the PPC bugs as well.

Pull seq-buf/ftrace fixes from Steven Rostedt:
"This includes fixes for seq_buf_bprintf() truncation issue. It also
contains fixes to ftrace when /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled and
function tracing are started. Doing the following causes some issues:
# echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled
# echo function_graph > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
# echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled
# echo nop > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
# echo function_graph > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
As well as with function tracing too. Pratyush Anand first reported
this issue to me and supplied a patch. When I tested this on my x86
test box, it caused thousands of backtraces and warnings to appear in
dmesg, which also caused a denial of service (a warning for every
function that was listed). I applied Pratyush's patch but it did not
fix the issue for me. I looked into it and found a slight problem
with trampoline accounting. I fixed it and sent Pratyush a patch, but
he said that it did not fix the issue for him.
I later learned tha Pratyush was using an ARM64 server, and when I
tested on my ARM board, I was able to reproduce the same issue as
Pratyush. After applying his patch, it fixed the problem. The above
test uncovered two different bugs, one in x86 and one in ARM and
ARM64. As this looked like it would affect PowerPC, I tested it on my
PPC64 box. It too broke, but neither the patch that fixed ARM or x86
fixed this box (the changes were all in generic code!). The above
test, uncovered two more bugs that affected PowerPC. Again, the
changes were only done to generic code. It's the way the arch code
expected things to be done that was different between the archs. Some
where more sensitive than others.
The rest of this series fixes the PPC bugs as well"

Pull workqueue fix from Tejun Heo:
"One fix patch for a subtle livelock condition which can happen on
PREEMPT_NONE kernels involving two racing cancel_work calls. Whoever
comes in the second has to wait for the previous one to finish. This
was implemented by making the later one block for the same condition
that the former would be (work item completion) and then loop and
retest; unfortunately, depending on the wake up order, the later one
could lock out the former one to finish by busy looping on the cpu.
This is fixed by implementing explicit wait mechanism. Work item
might not belong anywhere at this point and there's remote possibility
of thundering herd problem. I originally tried to use bit_waitqueue
but it didn't work for static work items on modules. It's currently
using single wait queue with filtering wake up function and exclusive
wakeup. If this ever becomes a problem, which is not very likely, we
can try to figure out a way to piggy back on bit_waitqueue"
* 'for-4.0-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq:
workqueue: fix hang involving racing cancel[_delayed]_work_sync()'s for PREEMPT_NONE
Some archs (specifically PowerPC), are sensitive with the ordering of
the enabling of the calls to function tracing and setting of the
function to use to be traced.
That is, update_ftrace_function() sets what function the ftrace_caller
trampoline should call. Some archs require this to be set before
calling ftrace_run_update_code().
Another bug was discovered, that ftrace_startup_sysctl() called
ftrace_run_update_code() directly. If the function the ftrace_caller
trampoline changes, then it will not be updated. Instead a call
to ftrace_startup_enable() should be called because it tests to see
if the callback changed since the code was disabled, and will
tell the arch to update appropriately. Most archs do not need this
notification, but PowerPC does.
The problem could be seen by the following commands:
# echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled
# echo function > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
# echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace
The trace will show that function tracing was not active.

When ftrace is enabled globally through the proc interface, we must check if
ftrace_graph_active is set. If it is set, then we should also pass the
FTRACE_START_FUNC_RET command to ftrace_run_update_code(). Similarly, when
ftrace is disabled globally through the proc interface, we must check if
ftrace_graph_active is set. If it is set, then we should also pass the
FTRACE_STOP_FUNC_RET command to ftrace_run_update_code().
Consider the following situation.
# echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled
After this ftrace_enabled = 0.
# echo function_graph > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
Since ftrace_enabled = 0, ftrace_enable_ftrace_graph_caller() is never
called.
# echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled
Now ftrace_enabled will be set to true, but still
ftrace_enable_ftrace_graph_caller() will not be called, which is not
desired.
Further if we execute the following after this:
# echo nop > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
Now since ftrace_enabled is set it will call
ftrace_disable_ftrace_graph_caller(), which causes a kernel warning on
the ARM platform.
On the ARM platform, when ftrace_enable_ftrace_graph_caller() is called,
it checks whether the old instruction is a nop or not. If it's not a nop,
then it returns an error. If it is a nop then it replaces instruction at
that address with a branch to ftrace_graph_caller.
ftrace_disable_ftrace_graph_caller() behaves just the opposite. Therefore,
if generic ftrace code ever calls either ftrace_enable_ftrace_graph_caller()
or ftrace_disable_ftrace_graph_caller() consecutively two times in a row,
then it will return an error, which will cause the generic ftrace code to
raise a warning.
Note, x86 does not have an issue with this because the architecture
specific code for ftrace_enable_ftrace_graph_caller() and
ftrace_disable_ftrace_graph_caller() does not check the previous state,
and calling either of these functions twice in a row has no ill effect.

When /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled is set to zero, all function
tracing is disabled. But the records that represent the functions
still hold information about the ftrace_ops that are hooked to them.
ftrace_ops may request "REGS" (have a full set of pt_regs passed to
the callback), or "TRAMP" (the ops has its own trampoline to use).
When the record is updated to represent the state of the ops hooked
to it, it sets "REGS_EN" and/or "TRAMP_EN" to state that the callback
points to the correct trampoline (REGS has its own trampoline).
When ftrace_enabled is set to zero, all ftrace locations are a nop,
so they do not point to any trampoline. But the _EN flags are still
set. This can cause the accounting to go wrong when ftrace_enabled
is cleared and an ops that has a trampoline is registered or unregistered.
For example, the following will cause ftrace to crash:
# echo function_graph > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
# echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled
# echo nop > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
# echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled
# echo function_graph > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
As function_graph uses a trampoline, when ftrace_enabled is set to zero
the updates to the record are not done. When enabling function_graph
again, the record will still have the TRAMP_EN flag set, and it will
look for an op that has a trampoline other than the function_graph
ops, and fail to find one.

Fengguang reported, that on openrisc and avr32 architectures, we
get the following linker errors on *_defconfig builds that have

Fix it up by providing built-in weak definitions of the symbols,
so they can be overridden when the syscall is enabled. I think
the issue might be that gcc is not able to optimize all that away.
This patch fixes the linker errors for me, tested with Fengguang's

* suspend-to-idle:
cpuidle / sleep: Use broadcast timer for states that stop local timer
cpuidle: Clean up fallback handling in cpuidle_idle_call()
cpuidle / sleep: Do sanity checks in cpuidle_enter_freeze() too
idle / sleep: Avoid excessive disabling and enabling interrupts
Commit 3810631332 (PM / sleep: Re-implement suspend-to-idle handling)
overlooked the fact that entering some sufficiently deep idle states
by CPUs may cause their local timers to stop and in those cases it
is necessary to switch over to a broadcast timer prior to entering
the idle state. If the cpuidle driver in use does not provide
the new ->enter_freeze callback for any of the idle states, that
problem affects suspend-to-idle too, but it is not taken into account
after the changes made by commit 3810631332.
Fix that by changing the definition of cpuidle_enter_freeze() and
re-arranging of the code in cpuidle_idle_call(), so the former does
not call cpuidle_enter() any more and the fallback case is handled
by cpuidle_idle_call() directly.

cancel[_delayed]_work_sync() are implemented using
__cancel_work_timer() which grabs the PENDING bit using
try_to_grab_pending() and then flushes the work item with PENDING set
to prevent the on-going execution of the work item from requeueing
itself.
try_to_grab_pending() can always grab PENDING bit without blocking
except when someone else is doing the above flushing during
cancelation. In that case, try_to_grab_pending() returns -ENOENT. In
this case, __cancel_work_timer() currently invokes flush_work(). The
assumption is that the completion of the work item is what the other
canceling task would be waiting for too and thus waiting for the same
condition and retrying should allow forward progress without excessive
busy looping
Unfortunately, this doesn't work if preemption is disabled or the
latter task has real time priority. Let's say task A just got woken
up from flush_work() by the completion of the target work item. If,
before task A starts executing, task B gets scheduled and invokes
__cancel_work_timer() on the same work item, its try_to_grab_pending()
will return -ENOENT as the work item is still being canceled by task A
and flush_work() will also immediately return false as the work item
is no longer executing. This puts task B in a busy loop possibly
preventing task A from executing and clearing the canceling state on
the work item leading to a hang.

This patch removes the possible hang by updating __cancel_work_timer()
to explicitly wait for clearing of CANCELING rather than invoking
flush_work() after try_to_grab_pending() fails with -ENOENT.

It currently is required that all users of NO_SUSPEND interrupt
lines pass the IRQF_NO_SUSPEND flag when requesting the IRQ or the
WARN_ON_ONCE() in irq_pm_install_action() will trigger. That is
done to warn about situations in which unprepared interrupt handlers
may be run unnecessarily for suspended devices and may attempt to
access those devices by mistake. However, it may cause drivers
that have no technical reasons for using IRQF_NO_SUSPEND to set
that flag just because they happen to share the interrupt line
with something like a timer.
Moreover, the generic handling of wakeup interrupts introduced by
commit 9ce7a25849 (genirq: Simplify wakeup mechanism) only works
for IRQs without any NO_SUSPEND users, so the drivers of wakeup
devices needing to use shared NO_SUSPEND interrupt lines for
signaling system wakeup generally have to detect wakeup in their
interrupt handlers. Thus if they happen to share an interrupt line
with a NO_SUSPEND user, they also need to request that their
interrupt handlers be run after suspend_device_irqs().
In both cases the reason for using IRQF_NO_SUSPEND is not because
the driver in question has a genuine need to run its interrupt
handler after suspend_device_irqs(), but because it happens to
share the line with some other NO_SUSPEND user. Otherwise, the
driver would do without IRQF_NO_SUSPEND just fine.
To make it possible to specify that condition explicitly, introduce
a new IRQ action handler flag for shared IRQs, IRQF_COND_SUSPEND,
that, when set, will indicate to the IRQ core that the interrupt
user is generally fine with suspending the IRQ, but it also can
tolerate handler invocations after suspend_device_irqs() and, in
particular, it is capable of detecting system wakeup and triggering
it as appropriate from its interrupt handler.
That will allow us to work around a problem with a shared timer
interrupt line on at91 platforms.

The cpuset.sched_relax_domain_level can control how far we do
immediate load balancing on a system. However, it was found on recent
kernels that echo'ing a value into cpuset.sched_relax_domain_level
did not reduce any immediate load balancing.
The reason this occurred was because the update_domain_attr_tree() traversal
did not update for the "top_cpuset". This resulted in nothing being changed
when modifying the sched_relax_domain_level parameter.
This patch is able to address that problem by having update_domain_attr_tree()
allow updates for the root in the cpuset traversal.
