y2038: syscalls: rename y2038 compat syscalls
A lot of system calls that pass a time_t somewhere have an implementation using a COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINEx() on 64-bit architectures, and have been reworked so that this implementation can now be used on 32-bit architectures as well. The missing step is to redefine them using the regular SYSCALL_DEFINEx() to get them out of the compat namespace and make it possible to build them on 32-bit architectures. Any system call that ends in 'time' gets a '32' suffix on its name for that version, while the others get a '_time32' suffix, to distinguish them from the normal version, which takes a 64-bit time argument in the future. In this step, only 64-bit architectures are changed, doing this rename first lets us avoid touching the 32-bit architectures twice.

jump_label: move 'asm goto' support test to Kconfig
Currently, CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL just means "I _want_ to use jump label". The jump label is controlled by HAVE_JUMP_LABEL, which is defined like this: #if defined(CC_HAVE_ASM_GOTO) && defined(CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL) # define HAVE_JUMP_LABEL #endif We can improve this by testing 'asm goto' support in Kconfig, then make JUMP_LABEL depend on CC_HAS_ASM_GOTO. Ugly #ifdef HAVE_JUMP_LABEL will go away, and CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL will match to the real kernel capability.

Remove 'type' argument from access_ok() function
Nobody has actually used the type (VERIFY_READ vs VERIFY_WRITE) argument of the user address range verification function since we got rid of the old racy i386-only code to walk page tables by hand. It existed because the original 80386 would not honor the write protect bit when in kernel mode, so you had to do COW by hand before doing any user access. But we haven't supported that in a long time, and these days the 'type' argument is a purely historical artifact. A discussion about extending 'user_access_begin()' to do the range checking resulted this patch, because there is no way we're going to move the old VERIFY_xyz interface to that model. And it's best done at the end of the merge window when I've done most of my merges, so let's just get this done once and for all. This patch was mostly done with a sed-script, with manual fix-ups for the cases that weren't of the trivial 'access_ok(VERIFY_xyz' form. There were a couple of notable cases: - csky still had the old "verify_area()" name as an alias. - the iter_iov code had magical hardcoded knowledge of the actual values of VERIFY_{READ,WRITE} (not that they mattered, since nothing really used it) - microblaze used the type argument for a debug printout but other than those oddities this should be a total no-op patch. I tried to fix up all architectures, did fairly extensive grepping for access_ok() uses, and the changes are trivial, but I may have missed something. Any missed conversion should be trivially fixable, though. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> |

sched/smt: Make sched_smt_present track topology
Currently the 'sched_smt_present' static key is enabled when at CPU bringup SMT topology is observed, but it is never disabled. However there is demand to also disable the key when the topology changes such that there is no SMT present anymore. Implement this by making the key count the number of cores that have SMT enabled. In particular, the SMT topology bits are set before interrrupts are enabled and similarly, are cleared after interrupts are disabled for the last time and the CPU dies.

rcu: Eliminate synchronize_rcu_mult()
Now that synchronize_rcu() waits for both RCU read-side critical sections and preempt-disabled regions of code, the sole caller of synchronize_rcu_mult() can be replaced by synchronize_rcu(). This patch makes this change and removes synchronize_rcu_mult().

psi: pressure stall information for CPU, memory, and IO
When systems are overcommitted and resources become contended, it's hard to tell exactly the impact this has on workload productivity, or how close the system is to lockups and OOM kills. In particular, when machines work multiple jobs concurrently, the impact of overcommit in terms of latency and throughput on the individual job can be enormous. In order to maximize hardware utilization without sacrificing individual job health or risk complete machine lockups, this patch implements a way to quantify resource pressure in the system. A kernel built with CONFIG_PSI=y creates files in /proc/pressure/ that expose the percentage of time the system is stalled on CPU, memory, or IO, respectively. Stall states are aggregate versions of the per-task delay accounting delays: cpu: some tasks are runnable but not executing on a CPU memory: tasks are reclaiming, or waiting for swapin or thrashing cache io: tasks are waiting for io completions These percentages of walltime can be thought of as pressure percentages, and they give a general sense of system health and productivity loss incurred by resource overcommit. They can also indicate when the system is approaching lockup scenarios and OOMs. To do this, psi keeps track of the task states associated with each CPU and samples the time they spend in stall states. Every 2 seconds, the samples are averaged across CPUs - weighted by the CPUs' non-idle time to eliminate artifacts from unused CPUs - and translated into percentages of walltime. A running average of those percentages is maintained over 10s, 1m, and 5m periods (similar to the loadaverage).

sched/fair: Remove setting task's se->runnable_weight during PELT update
A CFS (SCHED_OTHER, SCHED_BATCH or SCHED_IDLE policy) task's se->runnable_weight must always be in sync with its se->load.weight. se->runnable_weight is set to se->load.weight when the task is forked (init_entity_runnable_average()) or reniced (reweight_entity()). There are two cases in set_load_weight() which since they currently only set se->load.weight could lead to a situation in which se->load.weight is different to se->runnable_weight for a CFS task: (1) A task switches to SCHED_IDLE.

y2038: sched: Change sched_rr_get_interval to use __kernel_timespec
This is a preparation patch for converting sys_sched_rr_get_interval to work with 64-bit time_t on 32-bit architectures. The 'interval' argument is changed to struct __kernel_timespec, which will be redefined using 64-bit time_t in the future. The compat version of the system call in turn is enabled for compilation with CONFIG_COMPAT_32BIT_TIME so the individual 32-bit architectures can share the handling of the traditional argument with 64-bit architectures providing it for their compat mode.

y2038: globally rename compat_time to old_time32
Christoph Hellwig suggested a slightly different path for handling backwards compatibility with the 32-bit time_t based system calls: Rather than simply reusing the compat_sys_* entry points on 32-bit architectures unchanged, we get rid of those entry points and the compat_time types by renaming them to something that makes more sense on 32-bit architectures (which don't have a compat mode otherwise), and then share the entry points under the new name with the 64-bit architectures that use them for implementing the compatibility. The following types and interfaces are renamed here, and moved from linux/compat_time.h to linux/time32.h: old new --- --- compat_time_t old_time32_t struct compat_timeval struct old_timeval32 struct compat_timespec struct old_timespec32 struct compat_itimerspec struct old_itimerspec32 ns_to_compat_timeval() ns_to_old_timeval32() get_compat_itimerspec64() get_old_itimerspec32() put_compat_itimerspec64() put_old_itimerspec32() compat_get_timespec64() get_old_timespec32() compat_put_timespec64() put_old_timespec32() As we already have aliases in place, this patch addresses only the instances that are relevant to the system call interface in particular, not those that occur in device drivers and other modules. Those will get handled separately, while providing the 64-bit version of the respective interfaces. I'm not renaming the timex, rusage and itimerval structures, as we are still debating what the new interface will look like, and whether we will need a replacement at all. This also doesn't change the names of the syscall entry points, which can be done more easily when we actually switch over the 32-bit architectures to use them, at that point we need to change COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINEx to SYSCALL_DEFINEx with a new name, e.g. with a _time32 suffix.

Updates for v4.19:
- Restructure of lockdep and latency tracers This is the biggest change. Joel Fernandes restructured the hooks from irqs and preemption disabling and enabling. He got rid of a lot of the preprocessor #ifdef mess that they caused. He turned both lockdep and the latency tracers to use trace events inserted in the preempt/irqs disabling paths. But unfortunately, these started to cause issues in corner cases. Thus, parts of the code was reverted back to where lockde and the latency tracers just get called directly (without using the trace events). But because the original change cleaned up the code very nicely we kept that, as well as the trace events for preempt and irqs disabling, but they are limited to not being called in NMIs. - Have trace events use SRCU for "rcu idle" calls. This was required for the preempt/irqs off trace events. But it also had to not allow them to be called in NMI context. Waiting till Paul makes an NMI safe SRCU API. - New notrace SRCU API to allow trace events to use SRCU. - Addition of mcount-nop option support - SPDX headers replacing GPL templates. - Various other fixes and clean ups. - Some fixes are marked for stable, but were not fully tested before the merge window opened. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iIoEABYIADIWIQRRSw7ePDh/lE+zeZMp5XQQmuv6qgUCW3ruhRQccm9zdGVkdEBn b29kbWlzLm9yZwAKCRAp5XQQmuv6qiM7AP47NhYdSnCFCRUJfrt6PovXmQtuCHt3 c3QMoGGdvzh9YAEAqcSXwh7uLhpHUp1LjMAPkXdZVwNddf4zJQ1zyxQ+EAU= =vgEr -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'trace-v4.19' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: - Restructure of lockdep and latency tracers This is the biggest change.

Merge branch 'l1tf-final' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Merge L1 Terminal Fault fixes from Thomas Gleixner: "L1TF, aka L1 Terminal Fault, is yet another speculative hardware engineering trainwreck. It's a hardware vulnerability which allows unprivileged speculative access to data which is available in the Level 1 Data Cache when the page table entry controlling the virtual address, which is used for the access, has the Present bit cleared or other reserved bits set. If an instruction accesses a virtual address for which the relevant page table entry (PTE) has the Present bit cleared or other reserved bits set, then speculative execution ignores the invalid PTE and loads the referenced data if it is present in the Level 1 Data Cache, as if the page referenced by the address bits in the PTE was still present and accessible. While this is a purely speculative mechanism and the instruction will raise a page fault when it is retired eventually, the pure act of loading the data and making it available to other speculative instructions opens up the opportunity for side channel attacks to unprivileged malicious code, similar to the Meltdown attack. While Meltdown breaks the user space to kernel space protection, L1TF allows to attack any physical memory address in the system and the attack works across all protection domains. It allows an attack of SGX and also works from inside virtual machines because the speculation bypasses the extended page table (EPT) protection mechanism. The assoicated CVEs are: CVE-2018-3615, CVE-2018-3620, CVE-2018-3646 The mitigations provided by this pull request include: - Host side protection by inverting the upper address bits of a non present page table entry so the entry points to uncacheable memory. - Hypervisor protection by flushing L1 Data Cache on VMENTER. - SMT (HyperThreading) control knobs, which allow to 'turn off' SMT by offlining the sibling CPU threads. The knobs are available on the kernel command line and at runtime via sysfs - Control knobs for the hypervisor mitigation, related to L1D flush and SMT control. The knobs are available on the kernel command line and at runtime via sysfs - Extensive documentation about L1TF including various degrees of mitigations. Thanks to all people who have contributed to this in various ways - patches, review, testing, backporting - and the fruitful, sometimes heated, but at the end constructive discussions.

signal: Add calculate_sigpending()
Add a function calculate_sigpending to test to see if any signals are pending for a new task immediately following fork. Signals have to happen either before or after fork. Today our practice is to push all of the signals to before the fork, but that has the downside that frequent or periodic signals can make fork take much much longer than normal or prevent fork from completing entirely. So we need move signals that we can after the fork to prevent that. This updates the code to set TIF_SIGPENDING on a new task if there are signals or other activities that have moved so that they appear to happen after the fork. As the code today restarts if it sees any such activity this won't immediately have an effect, as there will be no reason for it to set TIF_SIGPENDING immediately after the fork. Adding calculate_sigpending means the code in fork can safely be changed to not always restart if a signal is pending. The new calculate_sigpending function sets sigpending if there are pending bits in jobctl, pending signals, the freezer needs to freeze the new task or the live kernel patching framework need the new thread to take the slow path to userspace. I have verified that setting TIF_SIGPENDING does make a new process take the slow path to userspace before it executes it's first userspace instruction. I have looked at the callers of signal_wake_up and the code paths setting TIF_SIGPENDING and I don't see anything else that needs to be handled. The code probably doesn't need to set TIF_SIGPENDING for the kernel live patching as it uses a separate thread flag as well. But at this point it seems safer reuse the recalc_sigpending logic and get the kernel live patching folks to sort out their story later. V2: I have moved the test into schedule_tail where siglock can be grabbed and recalc_sigpending can be reused directly. Further as the last action of setting up a new task this guarantees that TIF_SIGPENDING will be properly set in the new process. The helper calculate_sigpending takes the siglock and uncontitionally sets TIF_SIGPENDING and let's recalc_sigpending clear TIF_SIGPENDING if it is unnecessary. This allows reusing the existing code and keeps maintenance of the conditions simple. Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> suggested the movement and pointed out the need to take siglock if this code was going to be called while the new task is discoverable. Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

Advantages: * Lockdep and irqsoff event can now run in parallel since they no longer have their own calls. * This unifies the usecase of adding hooks to an irqsoff and irqson event, and a preemptoff and preempton event. 3 users of the events exist: - Lockdep - irqsoff and preemptoff tracers - irqs and preempt trace events The unification cleans up several ifdefs and makes the code in preempt tracer and irqsoff tracers simpler. It gets rid of all the horrific ifdeferry around PROVE_LOCKING and makes configuration of the different users of the tracepoints more easy and understandable. It also gets rid of the time_* function calls from the lockdep hooks used to call into the preemptirq tracer which is not needed anymore. The negative delta in lines of code in this patch is quite large too. In the patch we introduce a new CONFIG option PREEMPTIRQ_TRACEPOINTS as a single point for registering probes onto the tracepoints. With this, the web of config options for preempt/irq toggle tracepoints and its users becomes: PREEMPT_TRACER PREEMPTIRQ_EVENTS IRQSOFF_TRACER PROVE_LOCKING | | \ | | \ (selects) / \ \ (selects) / TRACE_PREEMPT_TOGGLE ----> TRACE_IRQFLAGS \ / \ (depends on) / PREEMPTIRQ_TRACEPOINTS Other than the performance tests mentioned in the previous patch, I also ran the locking API test suite. I verified that all tests cases are passing. I also injected issues by not registering lockdep probes onto the tracepoints and I see failures to confirm that the probes are indeed working.

sched/numa: Modify migrate_swap() to accept additional parameters
There are checks in migrate_swap_stop() that check if the task/CPU combination is as per migrate_swap_arg before migrating. However atleast one of the two tasks to be swapped by migrate_swap() could have migrated to a completely different CPU before updating the migrate_swap_arg. The new CPU where the task is currently running could be a different node too. If the task has migrated, numa balancer might end up placing a task in a wrong node. Instead of achieving node consolidation, it may end up spreading the load across nodes. To avoid that pass the CPUs as additional parameters. While here, place migrate_swap under CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING.

sched/debug: Show the sum wait time of a task group
Although we can rely on cpuacct to present the CPU usage of task groups, it is hard to tell how intense the competition is between these groups on CPU resources. Monitoring the wait time or sched_debug of each process could be very expensive, and there is no good way to accurately represent the conflict with these info, we need the wait time on group dimension. Thus we introduce group's wait_sum to represent the resource conflict between task groups, which is simply the sum of the wait time of the group's cfs_rq. The 'cpu.stat' is modified to show the statistic, like: nr_periods 0 nr_throttled 0 throttled_time 0 wait_sum 2035098795584 Now we can monitor the changes of wait_sum to tell how much a a task group is suffering in the fight of CPU resources. For example: (wait_sum - last_wait_sum) * 100 / (nr_cpu * period_ns) == X% means the task group paid X percentage of period on waiting for the CPU.

sched/irq: Add IRQ utilization tracking
interrupt and steal time are the only remaining activities tracked by rt_avg. Like for sched classes, we can use PELT to track their average utilization of the CPU. But unlike sched class, we don't track when entering/leaving interrupt; Instead, we take into account the time spent under interrupt context when we update rqs' clock (rq_clock_task). This also means that we have to decay the normal context time and account for interrupt time during the update. That's also important to note that because: rq_clock == rq_clock_task + interrupt time and rq_clock_task is used by a sched class to compute its utilization, the util_avg of a sched class only reflects the utilization of the time spent in normal context and not of the whole time of the CPU. The utilization of interrupt gives an more accurate level of utilization of CPU. The CPU utilization is: avg_irq + (1 - avg_irq / max capacity) * /Sum avg_rq Most of the time, avg_irq is small and neglictible so the use of the approximation CPU utilization = /Sum avg_rq was enough.

Usually the idle_cpu() check avoids that, but it is performed before we lock the runqueue and it is therefore racy. It was intended to be that way in order to prevent from useless runqueue locks since idle task tick callback is a no-op. Now if the racy check slips out of our hands and we end up remotely ticking an idle task, the empty task_tick_idle() is harmless. Still it won't pass the WARN_ON_ONCE() test that ensures rq_clock_task() is not too far from curr->se.exec_start because update_curr_idle() doesn't update the exec_start value like other scheduler policies. Hence the reported false positive. So let's have another check, while the rq is locked, to make sure we don't remote tick on an idle task. The lockless idle_cpu() still applies to avoid unecessary rq lock contention. Reported-by: Jacek Tomaka <jacekt@dug.com> Reported-by: Paul E.

sched/core / kcov: avoid kcov_area during task switch
During a context switch, we first switch_mm() to the next task's mm, then switch_to() that new task. This means that vmalloc'd regions which had previously been faulted in can transiently disappear in the context of the prev task. Functions instrumented by KCOV may try to access a vmalloc'd kcov_area during this window, and as the fault handling code is instrumented, this results in a recursive fault. We must avoid accessing any kcov_area during this window. We can do so with a new flag in kcov_mode, set prior to switching the mm, and cleared once the new task is live. Since task_struct::kcov_mode isn't always a specific enum kcov_mode value, this is made an unsigned int. The manipulation is hidden behind kcov_{prepare,finish}_switch() helpers, which are empty for !CONFIG_KCOV kernels. The code uses macros because I can't use static inline functions without a circular include dependency between <linux/sched.h> and <linux/kcov.h>, since the definition of task_struct uses things defined in <linux/kcov.h> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180504135535.53744-4-mark.rutland@arm.com Signed-off-by: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Acked-by: Andrey Ryabinin <aryabinin@virtuozzo.com> Cc: Dmitry Vyukov <dvyukov@google.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> |

rseq: Introduce restartable sequences system call
Expose a new system call allowing each thread to register one userspace memory area to be used as an ABI between kernel and user-space for two purposes: user-space restartable sequences and quick access to read the current CPU number value from user-space. * Restartable sequences (per-cpu atomics) Restartables sequences allow user-space to perform update operations on per-cpu data without requiring heavy-weight atomic operations. The restartable critical sections (percpu atomics) work has been started by Paul Turner and Andrew Hunter. It lets the kernel handle restart of critical sections. [1] [2] The re-implementation proposed here brings a few simplifications to the ABI which facilitates porting to other architectures and speeds up the user-space fast path. Here are benchmarks of various rseq use-cases. Test hardware: arm32: ARMv7 Processor rev 4 (v7l) "Cubietruck", 2-core x86-64: Intel E5-2630 v3@2.40GHz, 16-core, hyperthreading The following benchmarks were all performed on a single thread. * Per-CPU statistic counter increment getcpu+atomic (ns/op) rseq (ns/op) speedup arm32: 344.0 31.4 11.0 x86-64: 15.3 2.0 7.7 * LTTng-UST: write event 32-bit header, 32-bit payload into tracer per-cpu buffer getcpu+atomic (ns/op) rseq (ns/op) speedup arm32: 2502.0 2250.0 1.1 x86-64: 117.4 98.0 1.2 * liburcu percpu: lock-unlock pair, dereference, read/compare word getcpu+atomic (ns/op) rseq (ns/op) speedup arm32: 751.0 128.5 5.8 x86-64: 53.4 28.6 1.9 * jemalloc memory allocator adapted to use rseq Using rseq with per-cpu memory pools in jemalloc at Facebook (based on rseq 2016 implementation): The production workload response-time has 1-2% gain avg. latency, and the P99 overall latency drops by 2-3%. * Reading the current CPU number Speeding up reading the current CPU number on which the caller thread is running is done by keeping the current CPU number up do date within the cpu_id field of the memory area registered by the thread. This is done by making scheduler preemption set the TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME flag on the current thread. Upon return to user-space, a notify-resume handler updates the current CPU value within the registered user-space memory area. User-space can then read the current CPU number directly from memory. Keeping the current cpu id in a memory area shared between kernel and user-space is an improvement over current mechanisms available to read the current CPU number, which has the following benefits over alternative approaches: - 35x speedup on ARM vs system call through glibc - 20x speedup on x86 compared to calling glibc, which calls vdso executing a "lsl" instruction, - 14x speedup on x86 compared to inlined "lsl" instruction, - Unlike vdso approaches, this cpu_id value can be read from an inline assembly, which makes it a useful building block for restartable sequences. - The approach of reading the cpu id through memory mapping shared between kernel and user-space is portable (e.g. ARM), which is not the case for the lsl-based x86 vdso. On x86, yet another possible approach would be to use the gs segment selector to point to user-space per-cpu data. This approach performs similarly to the cpu id cache, but it has two disadvantages: it is not portable, and it is incompatible with existing applications already using the gs segment selector for other purposes. Benchmarking various approaches for reading the current CPU number: ARMv7 Processor rev 4 (v7l) Machine model: Cubietruck - Baseline (empty loop): 8.4 ns - Read CPU from rseq cpu_id: 16.7 ns - Read CPU from rseq cpu_id (lazy register): 19.8 ns - glibc 2.19-0ubuntu6.6 getcpu: 301.8 ns - getcpu system call: 234.9 ns x86-64 Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2630 v3 @ 2.40GHz: - Baseline (empty loop): 0.8 ns - Read CPU from rseq cpu_id: 0.8 ns - Read CPU from rseq cpu_id (lazy register): 0.8 ns - Read using gs segment selector: 0.8 ns - "lsl" inline assembly: 13.0 ns - glibc 2.19-0ubuntu6 getcpu: 16.6 ns - getcpu system call: 53.9 ns - Speed (benchmark taken on v8 of patchset) Running 10 runs of hackbench -l 100000 seems to indicate, contrary to expectations, that enabling CONFIG_RSEQ slightly accelerates the scheduler: Configuration: 2 sockets * 8-core Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2630 v3 @ 2.40GHz (directly on hardware, hyperthreading disabled in BIOS, energy saving disabled in BIOS, turboboost disabled in BIOS, cpuidle.off=1 kernel parameter), with a Linux v4.6 defconfig+localyesconfig, restartable sequences series applied. * CONFIG_RSEQ=n avg.: 41.37 s std.dev.: 0.36 s * CONFIG_RSEQ=y avg.: 40.46 s std.dev.: 0.33 s - Size On x86-64, between CONFIG_RSEQ=n/y, the text size increase of vmlinux is 567 bytes, and the data size increase of vmlinux is 5696 bytes.
