introduce bpf_tail_call(ctx, &jmp_table, index) helper function
which can be used from BPF programs like:
int bpf_prog(struct pt_regs *ctx)
{
...
bpf_tail_call(ctx, &jmp_table, index);
...
}
that is roughly equivalent to:
int bpf_prog(struct pt_regs *ctx)
{
...
if (jmp_table[index])
return (*jmp_table[index])(ctx);
...
}
The important detail that it's not a normal call, but a tail call.
The kernel stack is precious, so this helper reuses the current
stack frame and jumps into another BPF program without adding
extra call frame.
It's trivially done in interpreter and a bit trickier in JITs.
In case of x64 JIT the bigger part of generated assembler prologue
is common for all programs, so it is simply skipped while jumping.
Other JITs can do similar prologue-skipping optimization or
do stack unwind before jumping into the next program.
bpf_tail_call() arguments:
ctx - context pointer
jmp_table - one of BPF_MAP_TYPE_PROG_ARRAY maps used as the jump table
index - index in the jump table
Since all BPF programs are idenitified by file descriptor, user space
need to populate the jmp_table with FDs of other BPF programs.
If jmp_table[index] is empty the bpf_tail_call() doesn't jump anywhere
and program execution continues as normal.
New BPF_MAP_TYPE_PROG_ARRAY map type is introduced so that user space can
populate this jmp_table array with FDs of other bpf programs.
Programs can share the same jmp_table array or use multiple jmp_tables.
The chain of tail calls can form unpredictable dynamic loops therefore
tail_call_cnt is used to limit the number of calls and currently is set to 32.
Use cases:
Acked-by: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net>
==========
- simplify complex programs by splitting them into a sequence of small programs
- dispatch routine
For tracing and future seccomp the program may be triggered on all system
calls, but processing of syscall arguments will be different. It's more
efficient to implement them as:
int syscall_entry(struct seccomp_data *ctx)
{
bpf_tail_call(ctx, &syscall_jmp_table, ctx->nr /* syscall number */);
... default: process unknown syscall ...
}
int sys_write_event(struct seccomp_data *ctx) {...}
int sys_read_event(struct seccomp_data *ctx) {...}
syscall_jmp_table[__NR_write] = sys_write_event;
syscall_jmp_table[__NR_read] = sys_read_event;
For networking the program may call into different parsers depending on
packet format, like:
int packet_parser(struct __sk_buff *skb)
{
... parse L2, L3 here ...
__u8 ipproto = load_byte(skb, ... offsetof(struct iphdr, protocol));
bpf_tail_call(skb, &ipproto_jmp_table, ipproto);
... default: process unknown protocol ...
}
int parse_tcp(struct __sk_buff *skb) {...}
int parse_udp(struct __sk_buff *skb) {...}
ipproto_jmp_table[IPPROTO_TCP] = parse_tcp;
ipproto_jmp_table[IPPROTO_UDP] = parse_udp;
- for TC use case, bpf_tail_call() allows to implement reclassify-like logic
- bpf_map_update_elem/delete calls into BPF_MAP_TYPE_PROG_ARRAY jump table
are atomic, so user space can build chains of BPF programs on the fly
Implementation details:
=======================
- high performance of bpf_tail_call() is the goal.
It could have been implemented without JIT changes as a wrapper on top of
BPF_PROG_RUN() macro, but with two downsides:
. all programs would have to pay performance penalty for this feature and
tail call itself would be slower, since mandatory stack unwind, return,
stack allocate would be done for every tailcall.
. tailcall would be limited to programs running preempt_disabled, since
generic 'void *ctx' doesn't have room for 'tail_call_cnt' and it would
need to be either global per_cpu variable accessed by helper and by wrapper
or global variable protected by locks.
In this implementation x64 JIT bypasses stack unwind and jumps into the
callee program after prologue.
- bpf_prog_array_compatible() ensures that prog_type of callee and caller
are the same and JITed/non-JITed flag is the same, since calling JITed
program from non-JITed is invalid, since stack frames are different.
Similarly calling kprobe type program from socket type program is invalid.
- jump table is implemented as BPF_MAP_TYPE_PROG_ARRAY to reuse 'map'
abstraction, its user space API and all of verifier logic.
It's in the existing arraymap.c file, since several functions are
shared with regular array map.

Some init systems may wish to express the desire to have device drivers
run their probe() code asynchronously. This implements support for this
and allows userspace to request async probe as a preference through a
generic shared device driver module parameter, async_probe.
Implementation for async probe is supported through a module parameter
given that since synchronous probe has been prevalent for years some
userspace might exist which relies on the fact that the device driver
will probe synchronously and the assumption that devices it provides
will be immediately available after this.

To avoid getting spurious interrupts on a tickless CPU, clockevent
device can now be stopped by switching to ONESHOT_STOPPED state.
The natural place for handling this transition is tick_program_event().
On 'expires == KTIME_MAX', we skip programming the event and so we need
to fix such call sites as well, to always call tick_program_event()
irrespective of the expires value.
Once the clockevent device is required again, check if it was earlier
put into ONESHOT_STOPPED state. If yes, switch its state to ONESHOT
before programming its event.
To make sure we haven't missed any corner case, add a WARN() for the
case where we try to reprogram clockevent device while we aren't
configured in ONESHOT_STOPPED state.

When no timers/hrtimers are pending, the expiry time is set to a
special value: 'KTIME_MAX'. This normally happens with
NO_HZ_{IDLE|FULL} in both LOWRES/HIGHRES modes.
When 'expiry == KTIME_MAX', we either cancel the 'tick-sched' hrtimer
(NOHZ_MODE_HIGHRES) or skip reprogramming clockevent device
(NOHZ_MODE_LOWRES). But, the clockevent device is already
reprogrammed from the tick-handler for next tick.
As the clock event device is programmed in ONESHOT mode it will at
least fire one more time (unnecessarily). Timers on few
implementations (like arm_arch_timer, etc.) only support PERIODIC mode
and their drivers emulate ONESHOT over that. Which means that on these
platforms we will get spurious interrupts periodically (at last
programmed interval rate, normally tick rate).
In order to avoid spurious interrupts, the clockevent device should be
stopped or its interrupts should be masked.
A simple (yet hacky) solution to get this fixed could be: update
hrtimer_force_reprogram() to always reprogram clockevent device and
update clockevent drivers to STOP generating events (or delay it to
max time) when 'expires' is set to KTIME_MAX. But the drawback here is
that every clockevent driver has to be hacked for this particular case
and its very easy for new ones to miss this.
However, Thomas suggested to add an optional state ONESHOT_STOPPED to
solve this problem: lkml.org/lkml/2014/5/9/508.
This patch adds support for ONESHOT_STOPPED state in clockevents
core. It will only be available to drivers that implement the
state-specific callbacks instead of the legacy ->set_mode() callback.

With Posted-Interrupts support in Intel CPU and IOMMU, an external
interrupt from assigned-devices could be directly delivered to a
virtual CPU in a virtual machine. Instead of hacking KVM and Intel
IOMMU drivers, we propose a platform independent interface to target
an interrupt to a specific virtual CPU in a virtual machine, or set
virtual CPU affinity for an interrupt.
By adopting this new interface and the hierarchy irqdomain, we could
easily support posted-interrupts on Intel platforms, and also provide
flexible enough interfaces for other platforms to support similar
features.
Here is the usage scenario for this interface:
Guest update MSI/MSI-X interrupt configuration
-->QEMU and KVM handle this
-->KVM call this interface (passing posted interrupts descriptor
and guest vector)
-->irq core will transfer the control to IOMMU
-->IOMMU will do the real work of updating IRTE (IRTE has new
format for VT-d Posted-Interrupts)

This patch always gives preference to preferred node evaluations, and

On a two node system, the number of faults is never evaluated. Either
a task is about to be pulled off its preferred node, or migrated onto

Two watchdog changes that came through different trees had a non

but no actual code conflict happened. So the merge appeared fine, but
the resulting code did not behave as expected.
Commit 195daf665a ("watchdog: enable the new user interface of the
watchdog mechanism") changes the semantics of watchdog_user_enabled,
which thereafter is only used by the functions introduced by
b3738d2932 ("watchdog: Add watchdog enable/disable all functions").
There further appears to be a distinct lack of serialization between
setting and using watchdog_enabled, so perhaps we should wrap the

Nested IRQs can only fire when the parent irq fires. So when the
parent is suspended, there is no need to suspend the child irq.
Suspending nested irqs can cause a problem is they are suspended or
resumed in the wrong order. If an interrupt fires while the parent is
active but the child is suspended, then the interrupt will not be
acknowledged properly and so an interrupt storm can result. This is
particularly likely if the parent is resumed before the child, and the
interrupt was raised during suspend.
Ensuring correct ordering would be possible, but it is simpler to just
never suspend nested interrupts.

In the below two commits (see Fixes) we have periodic timers that can
stop themselves when they're no longer required, but need to be
(re)-started when their idle condition changes.
Further complications is that we want the timer handler to always do
the forward such that it will always correctly deal with the overruns,
and we do not want to race such that the handler has already decided
to stop, but the (external) restart sees the timer still active and we
end up with a 'lost' timer.
The problem with the current code is that the re-start can come before
the callback does the forward, at which point the forward from the
callback will WARN about forwarding an enqueued timer.
Now, conceptually its easy to detect if you're before or after the fwd
by comparing the expiration time against the current time. Of course,
that's expensive (and racy) because we don't have the current time.
Alternatively one could cache this state inside the timer, but then
everybody pays the overhead of maintaining this extra state, and that
is undesired.
The only other option that I could see is the external timer_active
variable, which I tried to kill before. I would love a nicer interface
for this seemingly simple 'problem' but alas.

The previous patches can be applied, once the corresponding module is
loaded. In general, the patch will do relocation (if necessary) and
obtain/verify function address before we start to enable patch.
There are three different situations in which the coming module notifier
can fail:
1) relocations are not applied for some reason. In this case kallsyms
for module symbol is not called at all. The patch is not applied to the
module. If the user disable and enable patch again, there is possible
bug in klp_enable_func. If the user specified func->old_addr for some
function in the module (and he shouldn't do that, but nevertheless) our
warning would not catch it, ftrace will reject to register the handler
because of wrong address or will register the handler for wrong address.
2) relocations are applied successfully, but kallsyms lookup fails. In
this case func->old_addr can be correct for all previous lookups, 0 for
current failed one, and "unspecified" for the rest. If we undergo the
same scenario as in 1, the behaviour differs for three cases, but the
patch is not enabled anyway.
3) the object is initialized, but klp_enable_object fails in the
notifier due to possible ftrace error. Since it is improbable that
ftrace would heal itself in the future, we would get those errors
everytime the patch is enabled.
In order to fix above situations, we can make obj->mod to NULL, if the
coming modified notifier fails.

Introduce a wrapper function around idle_set_state() called
sched_idle_set_state() that will pass this_rq() to it as the
first argument and make cpuidle_enter_state() call the new
function before and after entering the target state.
At the same time, remove direct invocations of idle_set_state()
from call_cpuidle().
This will allow the invocation of default_idle_call() to be
moved from call_cpuidle() to cpuidle_enter_state() safely
and call_cpuidle() to be simplified a bit as a result.

rt_mutex_trylock() must be called from thread context. It can be
called from atomic regions (preemption or interrupts disabled), but
not from hard/softirq/nmi context. Add a warning to alert abusers.
The reasons for this are:
1) There is a potential deadlock in the slowpath
2) Another cpu which blocks on the rtmutex will boost the task
which allegedly locked the rtmutex, but that cannot work
because the hard/softirq context borrows the task context.

Four minor merge conflicts:
1) qca_spi.c renamed the local variable used for the SPI device
from spi_device to spi, meanwhile the spi_set_drvdata() call
got moved further up in the probe function.
2) Two changes were both adding new members to codel params
structure, and thus we had overlapping changes to the
initializer function.
3) 'net' was making a fix to sk_release_kernel() which is
completely removed in 'net-next'.
4) In net_namespace.c, the rtnl_net_fill() call for GET operations
had the command value fixed, meanwhile 'net-next' adjusted the

The rtmutex code is the only user of __HAVE_ARCH_CMPXCHG and we have a few
other user of cmpxchg() which do not care about __HAVE_ARCH_CMPXCHG. This
define was first introduced in 23f78d4a0 ("[PATCH] pi-futex: rt mutex core")
which is v2.6.18. The generic cmpxchg was introduced later in 068fbad288
("Add cmpxchg_local to asm-generic for per cpu atomic operations") which is
v2.6.25.
Back then something was required to get rtmutex working with the fast
path on architectures without cmpxchg and this seems to be the result.
It popped up recently on rt-users because ARM (v6+) does not define
__HAVE_ARCH_CMPXCHG (even that it implements it) which results in slower
locking performance in the fast path.
To put some numbers on it: preempt -RT, am335x, 10 loops of
100000 invocations of rt_spin_lock() + rt_spin_unlock() (time "total" is
the average of the 10 loops for the 100000 invocations, "loop" is
"total / 100000 * 1000"):
cmpxchg | slowpath used || cmpxchg used
| total | loop || total | loop
--------|-----------|-------||------------|-------
ARMv6 | 9129.4 us | 91 ns || 3311.9 us | 33 ns
generic | 9360.2 us | 94 ns || 10834.6 us | 108 ns
----------------------------||--------------------
Forcing it to generic cmpxchg() made things worse for the slowpath and
even worse in cmpxchg() path. It boils down to 14ns more per lock+unlock
in a cache hot loop so it might not be that much in real world.
The last test was a substitute for pre ARMv6 machine but then I was able
to perform the comparison on imx28 which is ARMv5 and therefore is
always is using the generic cmpxchg implementation. And the numbers:
| total | loop
-------- |----------- |--------
slowpath | 263937.2 us | 2639 ns
cmpxchg | 16934.2 us | 169 ns
--------------------------------
The numbers are larger since the machine is slower in general. However,
letting rtmutex use cmpxchg() instead the slowpath seem to improve things.
Since from the ARM (tested on am335x + imx28) point of view always
using cmpxchg() in rt_mutex_lock() + rt_mutex_unlock() makes sense I
would drop the define.

It was noted that the 32bit implementation of ktime_divns()
was doing unsigned division and didn't properly handle
negative values.
And when a ktime helper was changed to utilize
ktime_divns, it caused a regression on some IR blasters.
See the following bugzilla for details:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1200353
This patch fixes the problem in ktime_divns by checking
and preserving the sign bit, and then reapplying it if
appropriate after the division, it also changes the return
type to a s64 to make it more obvious this is expected.
Nicolas also pointed out that negative dividers would
cause infinite loops on 32bit systems, negative dividers
is unlikely for users of this function, but out of caution
this patch adds checks for negative dividers for both
32-bit (BUG_ON) and 64-bit(WARN_ON) versions to make sure
no such use cases creep in.

Expose the NMI safe accessor to the monotonic raw clock to the
tracer. The mono clock was added with commit
1b3e5c0936. The advantage of the
monotonic raw clock is that it will advance more constantly than the
monotonic clock.
Imagine someone is trying to optimize a particular program to reduce
instructions executed for a given workload while minimizing the effect
on runtime. Also suppose that NTP is running and potentially making
larger adjustments to the monotonic clock. If NTP is adjusting the
monotonic clock to advance more rapidly, the program will appear to
use fewer instructions per second but run longer than if the monotonic
raw clock had been used. The total number of instructions observed
would be the same regardless of the clock source used, but how it's
attributed to time would be affected.
Conversely if NTP is adjusting the monotonic clock to advance more
slowly, the program will appear to use more instructions per second
but run more quickly. Of course there are many sources that can cause
jitter in performance measurements on modern processors, but let's
remove NTP from the list.
The monotonic raw clock can also be useful for tracing early boot,
e.g. when debugging issues with NTP.

Background: We have a customer that adds their own module and registers

Seccomp has always been a special candidate when it comes to preparation
of its filters in seccomp_prepare_filter(). Due to the extra checks and
filter rewrite it partially duplicates code and has BPF internals exposed.
This patch adds a generic API inside the BPF code code that seccomp can use
and thus keep it's filter preparation code minimal and better maintainable.
The other side-effect is that now classic JITs can add seccomp support as
well by only providing a BPF_LDX | BPF_W | BPF_ABS translation.

Provide a separate (second) version of the spin_lock_slowpath for
paravirt along with a special unlock path.
The second slowpath is generated by adding a few pv hooks to the
normal slowpath, but where those will compile away for the native
case, they expand into special wait/wake code for the pv version.
The actual MCS queue can use extra storage in the mcs_nodes[] array to
keep track of state and therefore uses directed wakeups.
The head contender has no such storage directly visible to the
unlocker. So the unlocker searches a hash table with open addressing
using a simple binary Galois linear feedback shift register.

Currently, atomic_cmpxchg() is used to get the lock. However, this
is not really necessary if there is more than one task in the queue
and the queue head don't need to reset the tail code. For that case,
a simple write to set the lock bit is enough as the queue head will
be the only one eligible to get the lock as long as it checks that
both the lock and pending bits are not set. The current pending bit
waiting code will ensure that the bit will not be set as soon as the
tail code in the lock is set.
With that change, the are some slight improvement in the performance
of the queued spinlock in the 5M loop micro-benchmark run on a 4-socket
Westere-EX machine as shown in the tables below.

When we allow for a max NR_CPUS < 2^14 we can optimize the pending
wait-acquire and the xchg_tail() operations.
By growing the pending bit to a byte, we reduce the tail to 16bit.
This means we can use xchg16 for the tail part and do away with all
the repeated compxchg() operations.
This in turn allows us to unconditionally acquire; the locked state
as observed by the wait loops cannot change. And because both locked
and pending are now a full byte we can use simple stores for the
state transition, obviating one atomic operation entirely.
This optimization is needed to make the qspinlock achieve performance
parity with ticket spinlock at light load.
All this is horribly broken on Alpha pre EV56 (and any other arch that
cannot do single-copy atomic byte stores).

This is a preparatory patch that extracts out the following 2 code
snippets to prepare for the next performance optimization patch.
1) the logic for the exchange of new and previous tail code words
into a new xchg_tail() function.
2) the logic for clearing the pending bit and setting the locked bit
into a new clear_pending_set_locked() function.
This patch also simplifies the trylock operation before queuing by
calling queued_spin_trylock() directly.

Because the qspinlock needs to touch a second cacheline (the per-cpu
mcs_nodes[]); add a pending bit and allow a single in-word spinner
before we punt to the second cacheline.
It is possible so observe the pending bit without the locked bit when
the last owner has just released but the pending owner has not yet
taken ownership.
In this case we would normally queue -- because the pending bit is
already taken. However, in this case the pending bit is guaranteed
to be released 'soon', therefore wait for it and avoid queueing.

This patch introduces a new generic queued spinlock implementation that
can serve as an alternative to the default ticket spinlock. Compared
with the ticket spinlock, this queued spinlock should be almost as fair
as the ticket spinlock. It has about the same speed in single-thread
and it can be much faster in high contention situations especially when
the spinlock is embedded within the data structure to be protected.
Only in light to moderate contention where the average queue depth
is around 1-3 will this queued spinlock be potentially a bit slower
due to the higher slowpath overhead.
This queued spinlock is especially suit to NUMA machines with a large
number of cores as the chance of spinlock contention is much higher
in those machines. The cost of contention is also higher because of
slower inter-node memory traffic.
Due to the fact that spinlocks are acquired with preemption disabled,
the process will not be migrated to another CPU while it is trying
to get a spinlock. Ignoring interrupt handling, a CPU can only be
contending in one spinlock at any one time. Counting soft IRQ, hard
IRQ and NMI, a CPU can only have a maximum of 4 concurrent lock waiting
activities. By allocating a set of per-cpu queue nodes and used them
to form a waiting queue, we can encode the queue node address into a
much smaller 24-bit size (including CPU number and queue node index)
leaving one byte for the lock.
Please note that the queue node is only needed when waiting for the
lock. Once the lock is acquired, the queue node can be released to
be used later.

In up_write()/up_read(), rwsem_wake() will be called whenever it
detects that some writers/readers are waiting. The rwsem_wake()
function will take the wait_lock and call __rwsem_do_wake() to do the
real wakeup. For a heavily contended rwsem, doing a spin_lock() on
wait_lock will cause further contention on the heavily contended rwsem
cacheline resulting in delay in the completion of the up_read/up_write
operations.
This patch makes the wait_lock taking and the call to __rwsem_do_wake()
optional if at least one spinning writer is present. The spinning
writer will be able to take the rwsem and call rwsem_wake() later
when it calls up_write(). With the presence of a spinning writer,
rwsem_wake() will now try to acquire the lock using trylock. If that
fails, it will just quit.

Given the overall futex architecture, any chance of reducing
hb->lock contention is welcome. In this particular case, using
wake-queues to enable lockless wakeups addresses very much real
world performance concerns, even cases of soft-lockups in cases
of large amounts of blocked tasks (which is not hard to find in
large boxes, using but just a handful of futex).
At the lowest level, this patch can reduce latency of a single thread
attempting to acquire hb->lock in highly contended scenarios by a
up to 2x. At lower counts of nr_wake there are no regressions,
confirming, of course, that the wake_q handling overhead is practically
non existent. For instance, while a fair amount of variation,
the extended pef-bench wakeup benchmark shows for a 20 core machine
the following avg per-thread time to wakeup its share of tasks:
nr_thr ms-before ms-after
16 0.0590 0.0215
32 0.0396 0.0220
48 0.0417 0.0182
64 0.0536 0.0236
80 0.0414 0.0097
96 0.0672 0.0152
Naturally, this can cause spurious wakeups. However there is no core code
that cannot handle them afaict, and furthermore tglx does have the point
that other events can already trigger them anyway.

This is useful for locking primitives that can effect multiple
wakeups per operation and want to avoid lock internal lock contention
by delaying the wakeups until we've released the lock internal locks.
Alternatively it can be used to avoid issuing multiple wakeups, and
thus save a few cycles, in packet processing. Queue all target tasks
and wakeup once you've processed all packets. That way you avoid
waking the target task multiple times if there were multiple packets
for the same task.
Properties of a wake_q are:
- Lockless, as queue head must reside on the stack.
- Being a queue, maintains wakeup order passed by the callers. This can
be important for otherwise, in scenarios where highly contended locks
could affect any reliance on lock fairness.
- A queued task cannot be added again until it is woken up.
This patch adds the needed infrastructure into the scheduler code
and uses the new wake_list to delay the futex wakeups until
after we've released the hash bucket locks.

Recent optimizations were made to thread_group_cputimer to improve its
scalability by keeping track of cputime stats without a lock. However,
the values were open coded to the structure, causing them to be at
a different abstraction level from the regular task_cputime structure.
Furthermore, any subsequent similar optimizations would not be able to
share the new code, since they are specific to thread_group_cputimer.
This patch adds the new task_cputime_atomic data structure (introduced in
the previous patch in the series) to thread_group_cputimer for keeping
track of the cputime atomically, which also helps generalize the code.

While running a database workload, we found a scalability issue with itimers.
Much of the problem was caused by the thread_group_cputimer spinlock.
Each time we account for group system/user time, we need to obtain a
thread_group_cputimer's spinlock to update the timers. On larger systems
(such as a 16 socket machine), this caused more than 30% of total time
spent trying to obtain this kernel lock to update these group timer stats.
This patch converts the timers to 64-bit atomic variables and use
atomic add to update them without a lock. With this patch, the percent
of total time spent updating thread group cputimer timers was reduced
from 30% down to less than 1%.
Note: On 32-bit systems using the generic 64-bit atomics, this causes
sample_group_cputimer() to take locks 3 times instead of just 1 time.
However, we tested this patch on a 32-bit system ARM system using the
generic atomics and did not find the overhead to be much of an issue.
An explanation for why this isn't an issue is that 32-bit systems usually
have small numbers of CPUs, and cacheline contention from extra spinlocks
called periodically is not really apparent on smaller systems.

'rt_period_us' is automatically type converted from u64 to long and then cast
back to u64 - this down/up conversion is unnecessary and can be removed to
improve readability.
This will also help us not truncate 'rt_period_us' to 32 bits on 32-bit kernels,
should we ever have so large values. (unlikely, not the least due to procfs.)

c56fb6564dcd ("Fix a misaligned load inside ptrace_attach()") makes
jobctl an "unsigned long". It makes sense to have the masks applied
to it match that type. This is currently just a cosmetic change, but
it will prevent the mask from being unexpectedly truncated if we ever
end up with masks with more bits.
One instance of "signr" is an int, but I left this alone because the
mask ensures that it will never overflow.

Commit 3c18d447b3 ("sched/core: Check for available DL bandwidth in
cpuset_cpu_inactive()"), a SCHED_DEADLINE bugfix, had a logic error that
caused a regression in setting a CPU inactive during suspend. I ran into
this when a program was failing pthread_setaffinity_np() with EINVAL after
a suspend+wake up.
A simple reproducer:
$ ./a.out
sched_setaffinity: Success
$ systemctl suspend
$ ./a.out
sched_setaffinity: Invalid argument
... where ./a.out is:
#define _GNU_SOURCE
#include <errno.h>
#include <sched.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <unistd.h>
int main(void)
{
long num_cores;
cpu_set_t cpu_set;
int ret;
num_cores = sysconf(_SC_NPROCESSORS_ONLN);
CPU_ZERO(&cpu_set);
CPU_SET(num_cores - 1, &cpu_set);
errno = 0;
ret = sched_setaffinity(getpid(), sizeof(cpu_set), &cpu_set);
perror("sched_setaffinity");
return ret ? EXIT_FAILURE : EXIT_SUCCESS;
}
The mistake is that suspend is handled in the action ==
CPU_DOWN_PREPARE_FROZEN case of the switch statement in
cpuset_cpu_inactive().
However, the commit in question masked out CPU_TASKS_FROZEN
from the action, making this case dead.
The fix is straightforward.

Ronny reported that the following scenario is not handled correctly:
T1 (prio = 10)
lock(rtmutex);
T2 (prio = 20)
lock(rtmutex)
boost T1
T1 (prio = 20)
sys_set_scheduler(prio = 30)
T1 prio = 30
....
sys_set_scheduler(prio = 10)
T1 prio = 30
The last step is wrong as T1 should now be back at prio 20.
Commit c365c292d0 ("sched: Consider pi boosting in setscheduler()")
only handles the case where a boosted tasks tries to lower its
priority.
Fix it by taking the new effective priority into account for the
decision whether a change of the priority is required.

nohz_full is only useful with isolcpus are also set, since
otherwise the scheduler has to run periodically to try to
determine whether to steal work from other cores.
Accordingly, when booting with nohz_full=xxx on the command
line, we should act as if isolcpus=xxx was also set, and set
(or extend) the isolcpus set to include the nohz_full cpus.

TIF_NOHZ is used by context_tracking to force syscall slow-path
on every task in order to track userspace roundtrips. As such,
it must be set on all running tasks.
It's currently explicitly inherited through context switches.
There is no need to do it in this fast-path though. The flag
could simply be set once for all on all tasks, whether they are
running or not.
Lets do this by setting the flag for the init task on early boot,
and let it propagate through fork inheritance.
While at it, mark context_tracking_cpu_set() as init code, we
only need it at early boot time.

Context tracking recursion can happen when an exception triggers
in the middle of a call to a context tracking probe.
This special case can be caused by vmalloc faults. If an access
to a memory area allocated by vmalloc happens in the middle of
context_tracking_enter(), we may run into an endless fault loop
because the exception in turn calls context_tracking_enter()
which faults on the same vmalloc'ed memory, triggering an
exception again, etc...
Some rare crashes have been reported so lets protect against
this with a recursion counter.

rcu: Control grace-period delays directly from value
The hrtimer callback in the hrtimer's tick broadcast code sometimes
incorrectly ends up scheduling events at the current tick causing the
kernel to hang servicing the same hrtimer forever. This typically
happens when a device is swapped out by
tick_install_broadcast_device(), which replaces the event handler with
clock_events_handle_noop() and sets the device mode to
CLOCK_EVT_MODE_UNUSED. If the timer is scheduled when this happens,
the next_event field will not be updated and the hrtimer ends up being
restarted at the current tick. To prevent this from happening, only
try to restart the hrtimer if the broadcast clock event device is in
one of the active modes and try to cancel the timer when entering the
CLOCK_EVT_MODE_UNUSED mode.

Since cpuidle_reflect() should only be called if the idle state
to enter was selected by cpuidle_select(), there is the "reflect"
variable in cpuidle_idle_call() whose value is used to determine
whether or not that is the case.
However, if the entire code run between the conditional setting
"reflect" and the call to cpuidle_reflect() is moved to a separate
function, it will be possible to call that new function in both
branches of the conditional, in which case cpuidle_reflect() will
only need to be called from one of them too and the "reflect"
variable won't be necessary any more.
This eliminates one check made by cpuidle_idle_call() on the majority
of its invocations, so change the code as described.

Allow to modify the low-level unbound workqueues cpumask through
sysfs. This is performed by traversing the entire workqueue list
and calling apply_wqattrs_prepare() on the unbound workqueues
with the new low level mask. Only after all the preparation are done,
we commit them all together.
Ordered workqueues are ignored from the low level unbound workqueue
cpumask, it will be handled in near future.
All the (default & per-node) pwqs are mandatorily controlled by
the low level cpumask. If the user configured cpumask doesn't overlap
with the low level cpumask, the low level cpumask will be used for the
wq instead.
The comment of wq_calc_node_cpumask() is updated and explicitly
requires that its first argument should be the attrs of the default
pwq.
The default wq_unbound_cpumask is cpu_possible_mask. The workqueue
subsystem doesn't know its best default value, let the system manager
or the other subsystem set it when needed.
Changed from V8:
merge the calculating code for the attrs of the default pwq together.
minor change the code&comments for saving the user configured attrs.
remove unnecessary list_del().
minor update the comment of wq_calc_node_cpumask().
update the comment of workqueue_set_unbound_cpumask();

We give up old_addr hint from the coming patch module in cases when kernel load
base has been randomized (as in such case, the coming module has no idea about
the exact randomization offset).
We are currently too pessimistic, and give up immediately as soon as
CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE is set; this doesn't however directly imply that the
load base has actually been randomized. There are config options that
disable kASLR (such as hibernation), user could have disabled kaslr on
kernel command-line, etc.
The loader propagates the information whether kernel has been randomized
through bootparams. This allows us to have the condition more accurate.
On top of that, it seems unnecessary to give up old_addr hints even if
randomization is active. The relocation offset can be computed using
kaslr_ofsset(), and therefore old_addr can be adjusted accordingly.

Commit 335f49196f (sched/idle: Use explicit broadcast oneshot
control function) replaced clockevents_notify() invocations in
cpuidle_idle_call() with direct calls to tick_broadcast_enter()
and tick_broadcast_exit(), but it overlooked the fact that
interrupts were already enabled before calling the latter which
led to functional breakage on systems using idle states with the
CPUIDLE_FLAG_TIMER_STOP flag set.
Fix that by moving the invocations of tick_broadcast_enter()
and tick_broadcast_exit() down into cpuidle_enter_state() where
interrupts are still disabled when tick_broadcast_exit() is
called. Also ensure that interrupts will be disabled before
running tick_broadcast_exit() even if they have been enabled by
the idle state's ->enter callback. Trigger a WARN_ON_ONCE() in
that case, as we generally don't want that to happen for states
with CPUIDLE_FLAG_TIMER_STOP set.

Create a cpumask that limits the affinity of all unbound workqueues.
This cpumask is controlled through a file at the root of the workqueue
sysfs directory.
It works on a lower-level than the per WQ_SYSFS workqueues cpumask files
such that the effective cpumask applied for a given unbound workqueue is
the intersection of /sys/devices/virtual/workqueue/$WORKQUEUE/cpumask and
the new /sys/devices/virtual/workqueue/cpumask file.
This patch implements the basic infrastructure and the read interface.
wq_unbound_cpumask is initially set to cpu_possible_mask.

Current apply_workqueue_attrs() includes pwqs-allocation and pwqs-installation,
so when we batch multiple apply_workqueue_attrs()s as a transaction, we can't
ensure the transaction must succeed or fail as a complete unit.
To solve this, we split apply_workqueue_attrs() into three stages.
The first stage does the preparation: allocation memory, pwqs.
The second stage does the attrs-installaion and pwqs-installation.
The third stage frees the allocated memory and (old or unused) pwqs.
As the result, batching multiple apply_workqueue_attrs()s can
succeed or fail as a complete unit:
1) batch do all the first stage for all the workqueues
2) only commit all when all the above succeed.
This patch is a preparation for the next patch ("Allow modifying low level
unbound workqueue cpumask") which will do a multiple apply_workqueue_attrs().
The patch doesn't have functionality changed except two minor adjustment:
1) free_unbound_pwq() for the error path is removed, we use the
heavier version put_pwq_unlocked() instead since the error path
is rare. this adjustment simplifies the code.
2) the memory-allocation is also moved into wq_pool_mutex.
this is needed to avoid to do the further splitting.

This reverts commits 0a4e6be9ca
and 80f7fdb1c7.
The task migration notifier was originally introduced in order to support
the pvclock vsyscall with non-synchronized TSC, but KVM only supports it
with synchronized TSC. Hence, on KVM the race condition is only needed
due to a bad implementation on the host side, and even then it's so rare
that it's mostly theoretical.
As far as KVM is concerned it's possible to fix the host, avoiding the
additional complexity in the vDSO and the (re)introduction of the task
migration notifier.
Xen, on the other hand, hasn't yet implemented vsyscall support at
all, so we do not care about its plans for non-synchronized TSC.

A clockevent device is marked DETACHED when it is replaced by another

But for the new per-state callback interface, we skip shutting down the

The effect is that the device is left programmed in oneshot or periodic

Thomas stumbled over the hrtimer_forward_now() in
perf_event_mux_interval_ms_store() and noticed its broken-ness.
You cannot just change the expiry time of an active timer, it will
destroy the red-black tree order and cause havoc.
Change it to (re)start the timer instead, (re)starting a timer will
dequeue and enqueue a timer and therefore preserve rb-tree order.
Since we cannot enqueue remotely, wrap the thing in
cpu_function_call(), this however mandates that we restrict ourselves
to online cpus. Also serialize the entire setting so we don't get
multiple concurrent threads trying to update to different values.
Also fix a problem in perf_mux_hrtimer_restart(), checking against
hrtimer_active() can actually loose us the timer when timer->state ==
HRTIMER_STATE_CALLBACK and the callback has already decided NORESTART.
Furthermore it doesn't make any sense to test
hrtimer_callback_running() when we already tested hrtimer_active(),
but with the above change, we explicitly must call it when
callback_running.
Lastly, rename a few functions:
s/perf_cpu_hrtimer_/perf_mux_hrtimer_/ -- because I could not find
the mux timer function
s/\<hr\>/timer/ -- because that's the normal way of calling things.

Roman reported a 3 cpu lockup scenario involving __start_cfs_bandwidth().
The more I look at that code the more I'm convinced its crack, that
entire __start_cfs_bandwidth() thing is brain melting, we don't need to
cancel a timer before starting it, *hrtimer_start*() will happily remove
the timer for you if its still enqueued.
Removing that, removes a big part of the problem, no more ugly cancel
loop to get stuck in.
So now, if I understand things right, the entire reason you have this
cfs_b->lock guarded ->timer_active nonsense is to make sure we don't
accidentally lose the timer.
It appears to me that it should be possible to guarantee that same by
unconditionally (re)starting the timer when !queued. Because regardless
what hrtimer::function will return, if we beat it to (re)enqueue the
timer, it doesn't matter.
Now, because hrtimers don't come with any serialization guarantees we
must ensure both handler and (re)start loop serialize their access to
the hrtimer to avoid both trying to forward the timer at the same
time.
Update the rt bandwidth timer to match.
This effectively reverts: 09dc4ab039 ("sched/fair: Fix
tg_set_cfs_bandwidth() deadlock on rq->lock").

Because we drop cpu_base->lock around calling hrtimer::function, it is
possible for hrtimer_start() to come in between and enqueue the timer.
If hrtimer::function then returns HRTIMER_RESTART we'll hit the BUG_ON
because HRTIMER_STATE_ENQUEUED will be set.
Since the above is a perfectly valid scenario, remove the BUG_ON and
make the enqueue_hrtimer() call conditional on the timer not being
enqueued already.
NOTE: in that concurrent scenario its entirely common for both sites
to want to modify the hrtimer, since hrtimers don't provide
serialization themselves be sure to provide some such that the
hrtimer::function and the hrtimer_start() caller don't both try and
fudge the expiration state at the same time.
To that effect, add a WARN when someone tries to forward an already
enqueued timer, the most common way to change the expiry of self
restarting timers. Ideally we'd put the WARN in everything modifying
the expiry but most of that is inlines and we don't need the bloat.

We can do a lockless check for hrtimer_active before actually taking
the lock in hrtimer[_try_to]_cancel. This is useful for hotpath users
like nanosleep as they avoid the lock dance when the timer has
expired.
This is safe because active is true when the timer is enqueued or the
callback is running. Taking the hrtimer base lock does not protect
against concurrent hrtimer_start calls, the callsite has to do the
proper serialization itself.

The evaluation of the next timer in the nohz code is based on jiffies
while all the tick internals are nano seconds based. We have also to
convert hrtimer nanoseconds to jiffies in the !highres case. That's
just wrong and introduces interesting corner cases.
Turn it around and convert the next timer wheel timer expiry and the
rcu event to clock monotonic and base all calculations on
nanoseconds. That identifies the case where no timer is pending
clearly with an absolute expiry value of KTIME_MAX.
Makes the code more readable and gets rid of the jiffies magic in the

hrtimer softirq is a leftover from the initial implementation and
serves only the purpose to handle the enqueueing of already expired
timers in the high resolution timer mode. We discussed whether we
change the return value and force all start sites to handle that the
timer is already expired, but that would be a Herculean task and I'm
not sure whether its a good idea to enforce that handling on
everyone.
A simpler solution is to enforce a timer interrupt instead of raising
and scheduling a softirq. Just use the existing infrastructure to do
so and remove all the softirq leftovers.
The HRTIMER softirq enum is now unused, but kept around because trace
parsers rely on the existing numbering.

The active_bases field is guaranteed to be in sync with the timerqueue
of the corresponding clock base. So we can use it for iterating over
the clock bases. This allows to break out early if no more active
clock bases are available and avoids touching the cache lines of

On every tick/hrtimer interrupt we update the offset variables of the
clock bases. That's silly because these offsets change very seldom.
Add a sequence counter to the time keeping code which keeps track of
the offset updates (clock_was_set()). Have a sequence cache in the
hrtimer cpu bases to evaluate whether the offsets must be updated or
not. This allows us later to avoid pointless cacheline pollution.

The softirq time field in the clock bases is an optimization from the
early days of hrtimers. It provides a coarse "jiffies" like time
mostly for self rearming timers.
But that comes with a price:
- Larger code size
- Extra storage space
- Duplicated functions with really small differences
The benefit of this is optimization is marginal for contemporary
systems.
Consolidate everything on the high resolution timer
implementation. This makes further optimizations possible.

The field has no value because all clock bases have the same
resolution. The resolution only changes when we switch to high
resolution timer mode. We can evaluate that from a single static
variable as well. In the !HIGHRES case its simply a constant.

'active_bases' indicates which clock-base have active timer. The
intention of this bit field was to avoid evaluating inactive bases. It
was introduced with the introduction of the BOOTTIME and TAI clock
bases, but it was never brought into full use.
We want to use it now, but in __remove_hrtimer() the update happens
after the calling hrtimer_force_reprogram() which has to evaluate all
clock bases for the next expiring timer. So in case the last timer of
a clock base got removed we still see the active bit and therefor
evaluate the clock base for no value. There are further optimizations
possible when active_bases is updated in the right place.
Move the update before the call to hrtimer_force_reprogram()

Here's the big tty/serial driver update for 4.1-rc1.
It was delayed for a bit due to some questions surrounding some of the
console command line parsing changes that are in here. There's still
one tiny regression for people who were previously putting multiple
console command lines and expecting them all to be ignored for some odd
reason, but Peter is working on fixing that. If not, I'll send a revert
for the offending patch, but I have faith that Peter can address it.
Other than the console work here, there's the usual serial driver
updates and changes, and a buch of 8250 reworks to try to make that
driver easier to maintain over time, and have it support more devices in
the future.
All of these have been in linux-next for a while.

Commit 8053871d0f ("smp: Fix smp_call_function_single_async()
locking") fixed the locking for the asynchronous smp-call case, but in
the process of moving the lock handling around, one of the error cases
ended up not unlocking the call data at all.
This went unnoticed on x86, because this is a "caller is buggy" case,
where the caller is trying to call a non-existent CPU. But apparently
ARM does that (at least under qemu-arm). Bindly doing cross-cpu calls
to random CPU's that aren't even online seems a bit fishy, but the error
handling was clearly not correct.
Simply add the missing "csd_unlock()" to the error path.

The code that replaces the enum names with the enum values in the
tracepoints' format files could possible miss the end of string nul
character. This was caused by processing things like backslashes, quotes
and other tokens. After processing the tokens, a check for the nul
character needed to be done before continuing the loop, because the loop
incremented the pointer before doing the check, which could bypass the nul
character.

sync_buffer() needs the mmap_sem for two distinct operations, both only
occurring upon user context switch handling:
1) Dealing with the exe_file.
2) Adding the dcookie data as we need to lookup the vma that
backs it. This is done via add_sample() and add_data().
This patch isolates 1), for it will no longer need the mmap_sem for
serialization. However, for now, make of the more standard
get_mm_exe_file(), requiring only holding the mmap_sem to read the value,
and relying on reference counting to make sure that the exe file won't
dissappear underneath us while doing the get dcookie.
As a consequence, for 2) we move the mmap_sem locking into where we really
need it, in lookup_dcookie(). The benefits are twofold: reduce mmap_sem
hold times, and cleaner code.

echo 0x800001234 > /proc/sys/kernel/threads-max

Oleg cleverly suggested using xchg() to set the new mm->exe_file instead
of calling set_mm_exe_file() which requires some form of serialization --
mmap_sem in this case. For archs that do not have atomic rmw instructions
we still fallback to a spinlock alternative, so this should always be
safe. As such, we only need the mmap_sem for looking up the backing
vm_file, which can be done sharing the lock. Naturally, this means we
need to manually deal with both the new and old file reference counting,
and we need not worry about the MMF_EXE_FILE_CHANGED bits, which can
probably be deleted in the future anyway.

E.g. architecture hexagon may have page size 1M and thread size 4096.
This would lead to a division by zero in the calculation of max_threads.
With 32-bit calculation there is no solution which delivers valid results
for all possible combinations of the parameters. The code is only called
once. Hence a 64-bit calculation can be used as solution.

copy_process will report any failure in alloc_pid as ENOMEM currently
which is misleading because the pid allocation might fail not only when
the memory is short but also when the pid space is consumed already.
The current man page even mentions this case:
: EAGAIN
:
: A system-imposed limit on the number of threads was encountered.
: There are a number of limits that may trigger this error: the
: RLIMIT_NPROC soft resource limit (set via setrlimit(2)), which
: limits the number of processes and threads for a real user ID, was
: reached; the kernel's system-wide limit on the number of processes
: and threads, /proc/sys/kernel/threads-max, was reached (see
: proc(5)); or the maximum number of PIDs, /proc/sys/kernel/pid_max,
: was reached (see proc(5)).
so the current behavior is also incorrect wrt. documentation. POSIX man
page also suggest returing EAGAIN when the process count limit is reached.
This patch simply propagates error code from alloc_pid and makes sure we
return -EAGAIN due to reservation failure. This will make behavior of
fork closer to both our documentation and POSIX.
alloc_pid might alsoo fail when the reaper in the pid namespace is dead
(the namespace basically disallows all new processes) and there is no
good error code which would match documented ones. We have traditionally
returned ENOMEM for this case which is misleading as well but as per
Eric W. Biederman this behavior is documented in man pid_namespaces(7)
: If the "init" process of a PID namespace terminates, the kernel
: terminates all of the processes in the namespace via a SIGKILL signal.
: This behavior reflects the fact that the "init" process is essential for
: the correct operation of a PID namespace. In this case, a subsequent
: fork(2) into this PID namespace will fail with the error ENOMEM; it is
: not possible to create a new processes in a PID namespace whose "init"
: process has terminated.
and introducing a new error code would be too risky so let's stick to
ENOMEM for this case.

Sending SI_TKILL from rt_[tg]sigqueueinfo was deprecated, so now we issue
a warning on the first attempt of doing it. We use WARN_ON_ONCE, which is
not informative and, what is worse, taints the kernel, making the trinity
syscall fuzzer complain false-positively from time to time.
It does not look like we need this warning at all, because the behaviour
changed quite a long time ago (2.6.39), and if an application relies on
the old API, it gets EPERM anyway and can issue a warning by itself.
So let us zap the warning in kernel.

ptrace_detach() re-checks ->ptrace under tasklist lock and calls
release_task() if __ptrace_detach() returns true. This was needed because
the __TASK_TRACED tracee could be killed/untraced, and it could even pass
exit_notify() before we take tasklist_lock.
But this is no longer possible after 9899d11f65 "ptrace: ensure

these checks into WARN_ON() and remove release_task().

ptrace_resume() is called when the tracee is still __TASK_TRACED. We set
tracee->exit_code and then wake_up_state() changes tracee->state. If the
tracer's sub-thread does wait() in between, task_stopped_code(ptrace => T)
wrongly looks like another report from tracee.
This confuses debugger, and since wait_task_stopped() clears ->exit_code
the tracee can miss a signal.
Test-case:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/wait.h>
#include <sys/ptrace.h>
#include <pthread.h>
#include <assert.h>
int pid;
void *waiter(void *arg)
{
int stat;
for (;;) {
assert(pid == wait(&stat));
assert(WIFSTOPPED(stat));
if (WSTOPSIG(stat) == SIGHUP)
continue;
assert(WSTOPSIG(stat) == SIGCONT);
printf("ERR! extra/wrong report:%x\n", stat);
}
}
int main(void)
{
pthread_t thread;
pid = fork();
if (!pid) {
assert(ptrace(PTRACE_TRACEME, 0,0,0) == 0);
for (;;)
kill(getpid(), SIGHUP);
}
assert(pthread_create(&thread, NULL, waiter, NULL) == 0);
for (;;)
ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, pid, 0, SIGCONT);
return 0;
}
Note for stable: the bug is very old, but without 9899d11f65 "ptrace:
ensure arch_ptrace/ptrace_request can never race with SIGKILL" the fix
should use lock_task_sighand(child).

The current smp_function_call code suffers a number of problems, most
notably smp_call_function_single_async() is broken.
The problem is that flush_smp_call_function_queue() does csd_unlock()
_after_ calling csd->func(). This means that a caller cannot properly
synchronize the csd usage as it has to.
Change the code to release the csd before calling ->func() for the
async case, and put a WARN_ON_ONCE(csd->flags & CSD_FLAG_LOCK) in
smp_call_function_single_async() to warn us of improper serialization,
because any waiting there can results in deadlocks when called with
IRQs disabled.
Rename the (currently) unused WAIT flag to SYNCHRONOUS and (re)use it
such that we know what to do in flush_smp_call_function_queue().
Rework csd_{,un}lock() to use smp_load_acquire() / smp_store_release()
to avoid some full barriers while more clearly providing lock
semantics.
Finally move the csd maintenance out of generic_exec_single() into its
callers for clearer code.

During sysrq's show-held-locks command it is possible that
hlock_class() returns NULL for a given lock. The result is then (after
the warning):

This *might* happen because the thread on the other CPU drops the lock
after we are looking ->lockdep_depth and ->held_locks points no longer
to a lock that is held.
The fix here is to simply ignore it and continue.

1.
first bug is a silly mistake. It broke tracing examples and prevented
simple bpf programs from loading.
In the following code:
if (insn->imm == 0 && BPF_SIZE(insn->code) == BPF_W) {
} else if (...) {
// this part should have been executed when
// insn->code == BPF_W and insn->imm != 0
}
Obviously it's not doing that. So simple instructions like:
r2 = *(u64 *)(r1 + 8)
will be rejected. Note the comments in the code around these branches
were and still valid and indicate the true intent.
Replace it with:
if (BPF_SIZE(insn->code) != BPF_W)
continue;
if (insn->imm == 0) {
} else if (...) {
// now this code will be executed when
// insn->code == BPF_W and insn->imm != 0
}
2.
second bug is more subtle.
If malicious code is using the same dest register as source register,
the checks designed to prevent the same instruction to be used with different
pointer types will fail to trigger, since we were assigning src_reg_type
when it was already overwritten by check_mem_access().
The fix is trivial. Just move line:
src_reg_type = regs[insn->src_reg].type;
before check_mem_access().
Add new 'access skb fields bad4' test to check this case.

There is a problem that trace events are not properly enabled with
boot cmdline. The problem is that if we pass "trace_event=kmem:mm_page_alloc"
to the boot cmdline, it enables all kmem trace events, and not just
the page_alloc event.
This is caused by the parsing mechanism. When we parse the cmdline, the buffer
contents is modified due to tokenization. And, if we use this buffer
again, we will get the wrong result.
Unfortunately, this buffer is be accessed three times to set trace events
properly at boot time. So, we need to handle this situation.
There is already code handling ",", but we need another for ":".
This patch adds it.

The kernel has orderly_poweroff which allows the kernel to initiate a
graceful shutdown of userspace, by running /sbin/poweroff. This adds
orderly_reboot that will cause userspace to shut itself down by calling
/sbin/reboot.
This will be used for shutdown initiated by a system controller on
platforms that do not use ACPI.
orderly_reboot() should be used when the system wants to allow userspace
to gracefully shut itself down. For cases where the system may imminently
catch on fire, the existing emergency_restart() provides an immediate
reboot without involving userspace.

There are a lot of embedded systems that run most or all of their
functionality in init, running as root:root. For these systems,
supporting multiple users is not necessary.
This patch adds a new symbol, CONFIG_MULTIUSER, that makes support for
non-root users, non-root groups, and capabilities optional. It is enabled
under CONFIG_EXPERT menu.
When this symbol is not defined, UID and GID are zero in any possible case
and processes always have all capabilities.
The following syscalls are compiled out: setuid, setregid, setgid,
setreuid, setresuid, getresuid, setresgid, getresgid, setgroups,
getgroups, setfsuid, setfsgid, capget, capset.
Also, groups.c is compiled out completely.
In kernel/capability.c, capable function was moved in order to avoid
adding two ifdef blocks.
This change saves about 25 KB on a defconfig build. The most minimal
kernels have total text sizes in the high hundreds of kB rather than
low MB. (The 25k goes down a bit with allnoconfig, but not that much.
The kernel was booted in Qemu. All the common functionalities work.
Adding users/groups is not possible, failing with -ENOSYS.

Currently, pages which are marked as unevictable are protected from
compaction, but not from other types of migration. The POSIX real time
extension explicitly states that mlock() will prevent a major page
fault, but the spirit of this is that mlock() should give a process the
ability to control sources of latency, including minor page faults.
However, the mlock manpage only explicitly says that a locked page will
not be written to swap and this can cause some confusion. The
compaction code today does not give a developer who wants to avoid swap
but wants to have large contiguous areas available any method to achieve
this state. This patch introduces a sysctl for controlling compaction
behavior with respect to the unevictable lru. Users who demand no page
faults after a page is present can set compact_unevictable_allowed to 0
and users who need the large contiguous areas can enable compaction on
locked memory by leaving the default value of 1.
To illustrate this problem I wrote a quick test program that mmaps a
large number of 1MB files filled with random data. These maps are
created locked and read only. Then every other mmap is unmapped and I
attempt to allocate huge pages to the static huge page pool. When the
compact_unevictable_allowed sysctl is 0, I cannot allocate hugepages
after fragmenting memory. When the value is set to 1, allocations
succeed.

mem_cgroup_lookup() is a wrapper around mem_cgroup_from_id(), which
checks that id != 0 before issuing the function call. Today, there is
no point in this additional check apart from optimization, because there
is no css with id <= 0, so that css_from_id, called by
mem_cgroup_from_id, will return NULL for any id <= 0.
Since mem_cgroup_from_id is only called from mem_cgroup_lookup, let us
zap mem_cgroup_lookup, substituting calls to it with mem_cgroup_from_id
and moving the check if id > 0 to css_from_id.

In a misguided attempt to avoid an #ifdef, the use of the
gp_init_delay module parameter was conditioned on the corresponding
RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT Kconfig variable, using IS_ENABLED() at
the point of use in the code. This meant that the compiler always saw
the delay, which meant that RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT_DELAY had to be
unconditionally defined. This in turn caused "make oldconfig" to ask
pointless questions about the value of RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT_DELAY
in cases where it was not even used.
This commit avoids these pointless questions by defining gp_init_delay
under #ifdef. In one branch, gp_init_delay is initialized to
RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT_DELAY and is also a module parameter (thus
allowing boot-time modification), and in the other branch gp_init_delay
is a const variable initialized by default to zero.
This approach also simplifies the code at the delay point by eliminating
the IS_DEFINED(). Because gp_init_delay is constant zero in the no-delay
case intended for production use, the "gp_init_delay > 0" check causes
the delay to become dead code, as desired in this case. In addition,
this commit replaces magic constant "10" with the preprocessor variable
PER_RCU_NODE_PERIOD, which controls the number of grace periods that
are allowed to elapse at full speed before a delay is inserted.

Rename the update_timers*() functions to update_watchdog*().
Remove the boolean argument from watchdog_enable_all_cpus() because
update_watchdog_all_cpus() is now a generic function to change the run
state of the lockup detectors and to have the lockup detectors use a new
sample period.

With the current user interface of the watchdog mechanism it is only
possible to disable or enable both lockup detectors at the same time.
This series introduces new kernel parameters and changes the semantics of
some existing kernel parameters, so that the hard lockup detector and the
soft lockup detector can be disabled or enabled individually. With this
series applied, the user interface is as follows.
- parameters in /proc/sys/kernel
. soft_watchdog
This is a new parameter to control and examine the run state of
the soft lockup detector.
. nmi_watchdog
The semantics of this parameter have changed. It can now be used
to control and examine the run state of the hard lockup detector.
. watchdog
This parameter is still available to control the run state of both
lockup detectors at the same time. If this parameter is examined,
it shows the logical OR of soft_watchdog and nmi_watchdog.
. watchdog_thresh
The semantics of this parameter are not affected by the patch.
- kernel command line parameters
. nosoftlockup
The semantics of this parameter have changed. It can now be used
to disable the soft lockup detector at boot time.
. nmi_watchdog=0 or nmi_watchdog=1
Disable or enable the hard lockup detector at boot time. The patch
introduces '=1' as a new option.
. nowatchdog
The semantics of this parameter are not affected by the patch. It
is still available to disable both lockup detectors at boot time.
Also, remove the proc_dowatchdog() function which is no longer needed.

If watchdog_nmi_enable() fails to set up the hardware perf event of one
CPU, the entire hard lockup detector is deemed unreliable. Hence, disable
the hard lockup detector and shut down the hardware perf events on all
CPUs.

Three of four handlers for the watchdog parameters in /proc/sys/kernel
essentially have to do the same thing.
if the parameter is being read {
return the state of the corresponding bit(s) in 'watchdog_enabled'
} else {
set/clear the state of the corresponding bit(s) in 'watchdog_enabled'
update the run state of the lockup detector(s)
}
Hence, introduce a common function that can be called by those handlers.
The callers pass a 'bit mask' to this function to indicate which bit(s)
should be set/cleared in 'watchdog_enabled'.
This function handles an uncommon race with watchdog_nmi_enable() where a
concurrent update of 'watchdog_enabled' is possible. We use 'cmpxchg' to
detect the concurrency. [This avoids introducing a new spinlock or a
mutex to synchronize updates of 'watchdog_enabled'. Using the same lock
or mutex in watchdog thread context and in system call context needs to be
considered carefully because it can make the code prone to deadlock
situations in connection with parking/unparking the watchdog threads.]

The hardlockup and softockup had always been tied together. Due to the
request of KVM folks, they had a need to have one enabled but not the
other. Internally rework the code to split things apart more cleanly.
There is a bunch of churn here, but the end result should be code that
should be easier to maintain and fix without knowing the internals of what
is going on.
This patch (of 9):
Introduce new definitions and variables to separate the user interface in
/proc/sys/kernel from the internal run state of the lockup detectors. The
internal run state is represented by two bits in a new variable that is
named 'watchdog_enabled'. This helps simplify the code, for example:
- In order to check if any of the two lockup detectors is enabled,
it is sufficient to check if 'watchdog_enabled' is not zero.
- In order to enable/disable one or both lockup detectors,
it is sufficient to set/clear one or both bits in 'watchdog_enabled'.
- Concurrent updates of 'watchdog_enabled' need not be synchronized via
a spinlock or a mutex. Updates can either be atomic or concurrency can
be detected by using 'cmpxchg'.

Pull perf changes from Ingo Molnar:
"Core kernel changes:
- One of the more interesting features in this cycle is the ability
to attach eBPF programs (user-defined, sandboxed bytecode executed
by the kernel) to kprobes.
This allows user-defined instrumentation on a live kernel image
that can never crash, hang or interfere with the kernel negatively.
(Right now it's limited to root-only, but in the future we might
allow unprivileged use as well.)
(Alexei Starovoitov)
- Another non-trivial feature is per event clockid support: this
allows, amongst other things, the selection of different clock
sources for event timestamps traced via perf.
This feature is sought by people who'd like to merge perf generated
events with external events that were measured with different
clocks:
- cluster wide profiling
- for system wide tracing with user-space events,
- JIT profiling events
etc. Matching perf tooling support is added as well, available via
the -k, --clockid <clockid> parameter to perf record et al.
(Peter Zijlstra)
Hardware enablement kernel changes:
- x86 Intel Processor Trace (PT) support: which is a hardware tracer
on steroids, available on Broadwell CPUs.
The hardware trace stream is directly output into the user-space
ring-buffer, using the 'AUX' data format extension that was added
to the perf core to support hardware constraints such as the
necessity to have the tracing buffer physically contiguous.
This patch-set was developed for two years and this is the result.
A simple way to make use of this is to use BTS tracing, the PT
driver emulates BTS output - available via the 'intel_bts' PMU.
More explicit PT specific tooling support is in the works as well -
will probably be ready by 4.2.
(Alexander Shishkin, Peter Zijlstra)
- x86 Intel Cache QoS Monitoring (CQM) support: this is a hardware
feature of Intel Xeon CPUs that allows the measurement and
allocation/partitioning of caches to individual workloads.
These kernel changes expose the measurement side as a new PMU
driver, which exposes various QoS related PMU events. (The
partitioning change is work in progress and is planned to be merged
as a cgroup extension.)
(Matt Fleming, Peter Zijlstra; CPU feature detection by Peter P
Waskiewicz Jr)
- x86 Intel Haswell LBR call stack support: this is a new Haswell
feature that allows the hardware recording of call chains, plus
tooling support. To activate this feature you have to enable it
via the new 'lbr' call-graph recording option:
perf record --call-graph lbr
perf report
or:
perf top --call-graph lbr
This hardware feature is a lot faster than stack walk or dwarf
based unwinding, but has some limitations:
- It reuses the current LBR facility, so LBR call stack and
branch record can not be enabled at the same time.
- It is only available for user-space callchains.
(Yan, Zheng)
- x86 Intel Broadwell CPU support and various event constraints and
event table fixes for earlier models.
(Andi Kleen)
- x86 Intel HT CPUs event scheduling workarounds. This is a complex
CPU bug affecting the SNB,IVB,HSW families that results in counter
value corruption. The mitigation code is automatically enabled and
is transparent.
(Maria Dimakopoulou, Stephane Eranian)
The perf tooling side had a ton of changes in this cycle as well, so
I'm only able to list the user visible changes here, in addition to
the tooling changes outlined above:
User visible changes affecting all tools:
- Improve support of compressed kernel modules (Jiri Olsa)
- Save DSO loading errno to better report errors (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Bash completion for subcommands (Yunlong Song)
- Add 'I' event modifier for perf_event_attr.exclude_idle bit (Jiri Olsa)
- Support missing -f to override perf.data file ownership. (Yunlong Song)
- Show the first event with an invalid filter (David Ahern, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
User visible changes in individual tools:
'perf data':
New tool for converting perf.data to other formats, initially
for the CTF (Common Trace Format) from LTTng (Jiri Olsa,
Sebastian Siewior)
'perf diff':
Add --kallsyms option (David Ahern)
'perf list':
Allow listing events with 'tracepoint' prefix (Yunlong Song)
Sort the output of the command (Yunlong Song)
'perf kmem':
Respect -i option (Jiri Olsa)
Print big numbers using thousands' group (Namhyung Kim)
Allow -v option (Namhyung Kim)
Fix alignment of slab result table (Namhyung Kim)
'perf probe':
Support multiple probes on different binaries on the same command line (Masami Hiramatsu)
Support unnamed union/structure members data collection. (Masami Hiramatsu)
Check kprobes blacklist when adding new events. (Masami Hiramatsu)
'perf record':
Teach 'perf record' about perf_event_attr.clockid (Peter Zijlstra)
Support recording running/enabled time (Andi Kleen)
'perf sched':
Improve the performance of 'perf sched replay' on high CPU core count machines (Yunlong Song)
'perf report' and 'perf top':
Allow annotating entries in callchains in the hists browser (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
Indicate which callchain entries are annotated in the
TUI hists browser (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
Add pid/tid filtering to 'report' and 'script' commands (David Ahern)
Consider PERF_RECORD_ events with cpumode == 0 in 'perf top', removing one
cause of long term memory usage buildup, i.e. not processing PERF_RECORD_EXIT
events (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
'perf stat':
Report unsupported events properly (Suzuki K. Poulose)
Output running time and run/enabled ratio in CSV mode (Andi Kleen)
'perf trace':
Handle legacy syscalls tracepoints (David Ahern, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
Only insert blank duration bracket when tracing syscalls (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
Filter out the trace pid when no threads are specified (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
Dump stack on segfaults (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
No need to explicitely enable evsels for workload started from perf, let it
be enabled via perf_event_attr.enable_on_exec, removing some events that take
place in the 'perf trace' before a workload is really started by it.
(Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
Allow mixing with tracepoints and suppressing plain syscalls. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

of the TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM() macro that can be used by tracepoints.
Tracepoints have helper functions for the TP_printk() called
__print_symbolic() and __print_flags() that lets a numeric number be
displayed as a a human comprehensible text. What is placed in the
TP_printk() is also shown in the tracepoint format file such that
user space tools like perf and trace-cmd can parse the binary data
and express the values too. Unfortunately, the way the TRACE_EVENT()
macro works, anything placed in the TP_printk() will be shown pretty
much exactly as is. The problem arises when enums are used. That's
because unlike macros, enums will not be changed into their values
by the C pre-processor. Thus, the enum string is exported to the
format file, and this makes it useless for user space tools.
The TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM() solves this by converting the enum strings
in the TP_printk() format into their number, and that is what is
shown to user space. For example, the tracepoint tlb_flush currently
has this in its format file:
__print_symbolic(REC->reason,
{ TLB_FLUSH_ON_TASK_SWITCH, "flush on task switch" },
{ TLB_REMOTE_SHOOTDOWN, "remote shootdown" },
{ TLB_LOCAL_SHOOTDOWN, "local shootdown" },
{ TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN, "local mm shootdown" })
After adding:
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_FLUSH_ON_TASK_SWITCH);
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_REMOTE_SHOOTDOWN);
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_LOCAL_SHOOTDOWN);
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN);
Its format file will contain this:
__print_symbolic(REC->reason,
{ 0, "flush on task switch" },
{ 1, "remote shootdown" },
{ 2, "local shootdown" },
{ 3, "local mm shootdown" })

more than one release, as I had it ready for the 4.0 merge window, but
a last minute thing that needed to go into Linux first had to be done.
That was that perf hard coded the file system number when reading
/sys/kernel/debugfs/tracing directory making sure that the path had
the debugfs mount # before it would parse the tracing file. This broke
other use cases of perf, and the check is removed.
Now when mounting /sys/kernel/debug, tracefs is automatically mounted
in /sys/kernel/debug/tracing such that old tools will still see that
path as expected. But now system admins can mount tracefs directly
and not need to mount debugfs, which can expose security issues.
A new directory is created when tracefs is configured such that
system admins can now mount it separately (/sys/kernel/tracing).
This branch is based off of Al Viro's vfs debugfs_automount branch
at commit 163f9eb95a
debugfs: Provide a file creation function that also takes an initial size
to get the debugfs_create_automount() operation.

Currently, smpboot_unpark_threads() is invoked before the incoming CPU
has been added to the scheduler's runqueue structures. This might
potentially cause the unparked kthread to run on the wrong CPU, since the
correct CPU isn't fully set up yet.
That causes a sporadic, hard to debug boot crash triggering on some
systems, reported by Borislav Petkov, and bisected down to:
2a442c9c64 ("x86: Use common outgoing-CPU-notification code")
This patch places smpboot_unpark_threads() in a CPU hotplug
notifier with priority set so that these kthreads are unparked just after
the CPU has been added to the runqueues.

Similar to what Linus suggested for rwsem_spin_on_owner(), in
mutex_spin_on_owner() instead of having while (true) and
breaking out of the spin loop on lock->owner != owner, we can
have the loop directly check for while (lock->owner == owner) to
improve the readability of the code.
It also shrinks the code a bit:

mm: move zone lock to a different cache line than order-0 free page lists
Unlike most (all?) other copies from user space, kernel module loading
is almost unlimited in size. So we do a potentially huge
"copy_from_user()" when we copy the module data from user space to the
kernel buffer, which can be a latency concern when preemption is
disabled (or voluntary).
Also, because 'copy_from_user()' clears the tail of the kernel buffer on
failures, even a *failed* copy can end up wasting a lot of time.
Normally neither of these are concerns in real life, but they do trigger
when doing stress-testing with trinity. Running in a VM seems to add
its own overheadm causing trinity module load testing to even trigger
the watchdog.
The simple fix is to just chunk up the module loading, so that it never
tries to copy insanely big areas in one go. That bounds the latency,
and also the amount of (unnecessarily, in this case) cleared memory for
the failure case.

There is a number of cases where a kernel subsystem may want to
introspect the state of an interrupt at the irqchip level:
- When a peripheral is shared between virtual machines,
its interrupt state becomes part of the guest's state,
and must be switched accordingly. KVM on arm/arm64 requires
this for its guest-visible timer
- Some GPIO controllers seem to require peeking into the
interrupt controller they are connected to to report
their internal state
This seem to be a pattern that is common enough for the core code
to try and support this without too many horrible hacks. Introduce
a pair of accessors (irq_get_irqchip_state/irq_set_irqchip_state)
to retrieve the bits that can be of interest to another subsystem:
pending, active, and masked.
- irq_get_irqchip_state returns the state of the interrupt according
to a parameter set to IRQCHIP_STATE_PENDING, IRQCHIP_STATE_ACTIVE,
IRQCHIP_STATE_MASKED or IRQCHIP_STATE_LINE_LEVEL.
- irq_set_irqchip_state similarly sets the state of the interrupt.

The ITS msi_prepare callback having failed, we end-up trying to
free MSIs that have never been allocated. Oddly enough, the kernel
is pretty upset about it.
It turns out that this behaviour was expected before the MSI domain
was introduced (and dealt with in arch_teardown_msi_irqs).
The obvious fix is to detect this early enough and bail out.

Add a enum_map file in the tracing directory to see what enums have been
saved to convert in the print fmt files.
As this requires the enum mapping to be persistent in memory, it is only
created if the new config option CONFIG_TRACE_ENUM_MAP_FILE is enabled.
This is for debugging and will increase the persistent memory footprint
of the kernel.

Several tracepoints use the helper functions __print_symbolic() or
__print_flags() and pass in enums that do the mapping between the
binary data stored and the value to print. This works well for reading
the ASCII trace files, but when the data is read via userspace tools
such as perf and trace-cmd, the conversion of the binary value to a
human string format is lost if an enum is used, as userspace does not
have access to what the ENUM is.
For example, the tracepoint trace_tlb_flush() has:
__print_symbolic(REC->reason,
{ TLB_FLUSH_ON_TASK_SWITCH, "flush on task switch" },
{ TLB_REMOTE_SHOOTDOWN, "remote shootdown" },
{ TLB_LOCAL_SHOOTDOWN, "local shootdown" },
{ TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN, "local mm shootdown" })
Which maps the enum values to the strings they represent. But perf and
trace-cmd do no know what value TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN is, and would
not be able to map it.
With TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(), developers can place these in the event header
files and ftrace will convert the enums to their values:
By adding:
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_FLUSH_ON_TASK_SWITCH);
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_REMOTE_SHOOTDOWN);
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_LOCAL_SHOOTDOWN);
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN);
$ cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/tlb/tlb_flush/format
[...]
__print_symbolic(REC->reason,
{ 0, "flush on task switch" },
{ 1, "remote shootdown" },
{ 2, "local shootdown" },
{ 3, "local mm shootdown" })
The above is what userspace expects to see, and tools do not need to
be modified to parse them.

Currently when a process accesses a hugetlb range protected with
PROTNONE, unexpected COWs are triggered, which finally puts the hugetlb
subsystem into a broken/uncontrollable state, where for example
h->resv_huge_pages is subtracted too much and wraps around to a very
large number, and the free hugepage pool is no longer maintainable.
This patch simply stops changing protection for vma(VM_HUGETLB) to fix
the problem. And this also allows us to avoid useless overhead of minor
faults.

The sysfs code usually belongs to the botom of the file since it deals
with high level objects. In the workqueue code it's misplaced and such
that we'll need to work around functions references to allow the sysfs
code to call APIs like apply_workqueue_attrs().
Lets move that block further in the file, almost the botom.
And declare workqueue_sysfs_unregister() just before destroy_workqueue()
which reference it.
tj: Moved workqueue_sysfs_unregister() forward declaration where other
forward declarations are.

If a system does not provide a persistent_clock(), the time
will be updated on resume by rtc_resume(). With the addition
of the non-stop clocksources for suspend timing, those systems
set the time on resume in timekeeping_resume(), but may not
provide a valid persistent_clock().
This results in the rtc_resume() logic thinking no one has set
the time and it then will over-write the suspend time again,
which is not necessary and only increases clock error.
So, fix this for rtc_resume().
This patch also improves the name of persistent_clock_exist to
make it more grammatical.

When there's no persistent clock, normally
timekeeping_suspend_time should always be zero, but this can
break in timekeeping_suspend().
At T1, there was a system suspend, so old_delta was assigned T1.
After some time, one time adjustment happened, and xtime got the
value of T1-dt(0s<dt<2s). Then, there comes another system
suspend soon after this adjustment, obviously we will get a
small negative delta_delta, resulting in a negative
timekeeping_suspend_time.
This is problematic, when doing timekeeping_resume() if there is
no nonstop clocksource for example, it will hit the else leg and
inject the improper sleeptime which is the wrong logic.
So, we can solve this problem by only doing delta related code
when the persistent clock is existent. Actually the code only
makes sense for persistent clock cases.

Dynamically allocated trampolines call ftrace_ops_get_func to get the
function which they should call. For dynamic fops (FTRACE_OPS_FL_DYNAMIC
flag is set) ftrace_ops_list_func is always returned. This is reasonable
for static trampolines but goes against the main advantage of dynamic
ones, that is avoidance of going through the list of all registered
callbacks for functions that are only being traced by a single callback.
We can fix it by returning ops->func (or recursion safe version) from
ftrace_ops_get_func whenever it is possible for dynamic trampolines.
Note that dynamic trampolines are not allowed for dynamic fops if
CONFIG_PREEMPT=y.

Memory for the 'tvec_base' array is allocated separately for the boot CPU (statically)
and non-boot CPUs (dynamically).
The reason is because __TIMER_INITIALIZER() needs to set ->base to a
valid pointer (because we've made NULL special, hint: lock_timer_base())
and we cannot get a compile time pointer to per-cpu entries because we
don't know where we'll map the section, even for the boot cpu.
This can be simplified a bit by statically allocating per-cpu memory.
The only disadvantage is that memory for one of the structures will stay
unused, i.e. for the boot CPU, which uses boot_tvec_bases.
This will also guarantee that tvec_base is cacheline aligned. Even
though tvec_base has ____cacheline_aligned stuck on, kzalloc_node() does
not actually respect that (but guarantees a minimum u64 alignment).

leads to the situation that stop task can't pick them up from the
DL rq and migrate them to other CPUs during hotplug.
The method to reproduce:
schedtool -E -t 50000:100000 -e ./test
Actually './test' is just a simple for loop. Then observe which CPU the
test task is on and offline it:
echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuN/online
This patch adds the DL task migration during CPU hotplug by finding a
most suitable later deadline rq after DL timer fires if current rq is
offline.
If it fails to find a suitable later deadline rq then it falls back to
any eligible online CPU in so that the deadline task will come back
to us, and the push/pull mechanism should then move it around properly.

Hotplug operations are destructive w.r.t. cpusets. In case such an
operation is performed on a CPU belonging to an exlusive cpuset, the
DL bandwidth information associated with the corresponding root
domain is gone even if the operation fails (in sched_cpu_inactive()).
For this reason we need to move the check we currently have in
sched_cpu_inactive() to cpuset_cpu_inactive() to prevent useless
cpusets reconfiguration in the CPU_DOWN_FAILED path.

dl_task_timer() may fire on a different rq from where a task was removed
after throttling. Since the call path is:
dl_task_timer() ->
enqueue_task_dl() ->
enqueue_dl_entity() ->
replenish_dl_entity()
and replenish_dl_entity() uses dl_se's rq, we can't use current's rq
in dl_task_timer(), but we need to lock the task's previous one.

For counters that generate AUX data that is bound to the context of a
running task, such as instruction tracing, the decoder needs to know
exactly which task is running when the event is first scheduled in,
before the first sched_switch. The decoder's need to know this stems
from the fact that instruction flow trace decoding will almost always
require program's object code in order to reconstruct said flow and
for that we need at least its pid/tid in the perf stream.
To single out such instruction tracing pmus, this patch introduces
ITRACE PMU capability. The reason this is not part of RECORD_AUX
record is that not all pmus capable of generating AUX data need this,
and the opposite is *probably* also true.
While sched_switch covers for most cases, there are two problems with it:
the consumer will need to process events out of order (that is, having
found RECORD_AUX, it will have to skip forward to the nearest sched_switch
to figure out which task it was, then go back to the actual trace to
decode it) and it completely misses the case when the tracing is enabled
and disabled before sched_switch, for example, via PERF_EVENT_IOC_DISABLE.

When AUX area gets a certain amount of new data, we want to wake up
userspace to collect it. This adds a new control to specify how much
data will cause a wakeup. This is then passed down to pmu drivers via
output handle's "wakeup" field, so that the driver can find the nearest
point where it can generate an interrupt.
We repurpose __reserved_2 in the event attribute for this, even though
it was never checked to be zero before, aux_watermark will only matter
for new AUX-aware code, so the old code should still be fine.

This adds support for overwrite mode in the AUX area, which means "keep
collecting data till you're stopped", turning AUX area into a circular
buffer, where new data overwrites old data. It does not depend on data
buffer's overwrite mode, so that it doesn't lose sideband data that is
instrumental for processing AUX data.
Overwrite mode is enabled at mapping AUX area read only. Even though
aux_tail in the buffer's user page might be user writable, it will be
ignored in this mode.
A PERF_RECORD_AUX with PERF_AUX_FLAG_OVERWRITE set is written to the perf
data stream every time an event writes new data to the AUX area. The pmu
driver might not be able to infer the exact beginning of the new data in
each snapshot, some drivers will only provide the tail, which is
aux_offset + aux_size in the AUX record. Consumer has to be able to tell
the new data from the old one, for example, by means of time stamps if
such are provided in the trace.
Consumer is also responsible for disabling any events that might write
to the AUX area (thus potentially racing with the consumer) before
collecting the data.

For pmus that wish to write data to ring buffer's AUX area, provide
perf_aux_output_{begin,end}() calls to initiate/commit data writes,
similarly to perf_output_{begin,end}. These also use the same output
handle structure. Also, similarly to software counterparts, these
will direct inherited events' output to parents' ring buffers.
After the perf_aux_output_begin() returns successfully, handle->size
is set to the maximum amount of data that can be written wrt aux_tail
pointer, so that no data that the user hasn't seen will be overwritten,
therefore this should always be called before hardware writing is
enabled. On success, this will return the pointer to pmu driver's
private structure allocated for this aux area by pmu::setup_aux. Same
pointer can also be retrieved using perf_get_aux() while hardware
writing is enabled.
PMU driver should pass the actual amount of data written as a parameter
to perf_aux_output_end(). All hardware writes should be completed and
visible before this one is called.
Additionally, perf_aux_output_skip() will adjust output handle and
aux_head in case some part of the buffer has to be skipped over to
maintain hardware's alignment constraints.
Nested writers are forbidden and guards are in place to catch such
attempts.

For pmus that don't support scatter-gather for AUX data in hardware, it
might still make sense to implement software double buffering to avoid
losing data while the user is reading data out. For this purpose, add
a pmu capability that guarantees multiple high-order chunks for AUX buffer,
so that the pmu driver can do switchover tricks.
To make use of this feature, add PERF_PMU_CAP_AUX_SW_DOUBLEBUF to your
pmu's capability mask. This will make the ring buffer AUX allocation code
ensure that the biggest high order allocation for the aux buffer pages is
no bigger than half of the total requested buffer size, thus making sure
that the buffer has at least two high order allocations.

This patch introduces "AUX space" in the perf mmap buffer, intended for
exporting high bandwidth data streams to userspace, such as instruction
flow traces.
AUX space is a ring buffer, defined by aux_{offset,size} fields in the
user_page structure, and read/write pointers aux_{head,tail}, which abide
by the same rules as data_* counterparts of the main perf buffer.
In order to allocate/mmap AUX, userspace needs to set up aux_offset to
such an offset that will be greater than data_offset+data_size and
aux_size to be the desired buffer size. Both need to be page aligned.
Then, same aux_offset and aux_size should be passed to mmap() call and
if everything adds up, you should have an AUX buffer as a result.
Pages that are mapped into this buffer also come out of user's mlock
rlimit plus perf_event_mlock_kb allowance.

Currently, the actual perf ring buffer is one page into the mmap area,
following the user page and the userspace follows this convention. This
patch adds data_{offset,size} fields to user_page that can be used by
userspace instead for locating perf data in the mmap area. This is also
helpful when mapping existing or shared buffers if their size is not
known in advance.
Right now, it is made to follow the existing convention that
data_offset == PAGE_SIZE and
data_offset + data_size == mmap_size.

So bpf_tracing.o depends on CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL - but that's not its only

without which it will fail to build with:
In file included from kernel/trace/bpf_trace.c:14:0:

kernel/trace/trace.h:491:28: error: ‘struct task_struct’ has no member named ‘trace_recursion’

[...]
It took quite some time to trigger this build failure, because right now
BPF_SYSCALL is very obscure, depends on CONFIG_EXPERT. So also make BPF_SYSCALL
more configurable, not just under CONFIG_EXPERT.
If BPF_SYSCALL, tracing and kprobes are enabled then enable the bpf_tracing
gateway as well.
We might want to make this an interactive option later on, although
I'd not complicate it unnecessarily: enabling BPF_SYSCALL is enough of
an indicator that the user wants BPF support.

It was found when doing a hotplug stress test on POWER, that the
machine either hit softlockups or rcu_sched stall warnings. The
issue was traced to commit:
7cba160ad7 ("powernv/cpuidle: Redesign idle states management")
which exposed the cpu_down() race with hrtimer based broadcast mode:
5d1638acb9 ("tick: Introduce hrtimer based broadcast")
The race is the following:
Assume CPU1 is the CPU which holds the hrtimer broadcasting duty
before it is taken down.
CPU0 CPU1
cpu_down() take_cpu_down()
disable_interrupts()
cpu_die()
while (CPU1 != CPU_DEAD) {
msleep(100);
switch_to_idle();
stop_cpu_timer();
schedule_broadcast();
}
tick_cleanup_cpu_dead()
take_over_broadcast()
So after CPU1 disabled interrupts it cannot handle the broadcast
hrtimer anymore, so CPU0 will be stuck forever.
Fix this by explicitly taking over broadcast duty before cpu_die().
This is a temporary workaround. What we really want is a callback
in the clockevent device which allows us to do that from the dying
CPU by pushing the hrtimer onto a different cpu. That might involve
an IPI and is definitely more complex than this immediate fix.

Debugging of BPF programs needs some form of printk from the

Similar to kernel modules, during program load verifier checks
whether program is calling bpf_trace_printk() and if so, kernel
allocates trace_printk buffers and emits big 'this is debug

BPF programs, attached to kprobes, provide a safe way to execute
user-defined BPF byte-code programs without being able to crash or
hang the kernel in any way. The BPF engine makes sure that such
programs have a finite execution time and that they cannot break
out of their sandbox.
The user interface is to attach to a kprobe via the perf syscall:
struct perf_event_attr attr = {
.type = PERF_TYPE_TRACEPOINT,
.config = event_id,
...
};
event_fd = perf_event_open(&attr,...);
ioctl(event_fd, PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_BPF, prog_fd);
'prog_fd' is a file descriptor associated with BPF program
previously loaded.
'event_id' is an ID of the kprobe created.
Closing 'event_fd':
close(event_fd);
... automatically detaches BPF program from it.
BPF programs can call in-kernel helper functions to:
- lookup/update/delete elements in maps
- probe_read - wraper of probe_kernel_read() used to access any
kernel data structures
BPF programs receive 'struct pt_regs *' as an input ('struct pt_regs' is
architecture dependent) and return 0 to ignore the event and 1 to store
kprobe event into the ring buffer.
Note, kprobes are a fundamentally _not_ a stable kernel ABI,
so BPF programs attached to kprobes must be recompiled for
every kernel version and user must supply correct LINUX_VERSION_CODE
in attr.kern_version during bpf_prog_load() call.

tick_resume() is for the syscore global suspend/resume

function.
Provide a tick_resume_local() function and use it in XEN.
Also provide a complementary tick_suspend_local() and modify
tick_unfreeze() and tick_freeze(), respectively, to use the

clockevents_notify() is a leftover from the early design of the
clockevents facility. It's really not a notification mechanism,
it's a multiplex call.
We are way better off to have explicit calls instead of this
monstrosity. Split out the suspend/resume() calls and invoke
them directly from the call sites.
No locking required at this point because these calls happen
with interrupts disabled and a single cpu online.

'enum clock_event_mode' is used for two purposes today:
- to pass mode to the driver of clockevent device::set_mode().
- for managing state of the device for clockevents core.
For supporting new modes/states we have moved away from the
legacy set_mode() callback to new per-mode/state callbacks. New
modes/states shouldn't be exposed to the legacy (now OBSOLOTE)
callbacks and so we shouldn't add new states to 'enum
clock_event_mode'.
Lets have separate enums for the two use cases mentioned above.
Keep using the earlier enum for legacy set_mode() callback and
mark it OBSOLETE. And add another enum to clearly specify the
possible states of a clockevent device.
This also renames the newly added per-mode callbacks to reflect
state changes.
We haven't got rid of 'mode' member of 'struct
clock_event_device' as it is used by some of the clockevent
drivers and it would automatically die down once we migrate
those drivers to the new interface. It ('mode') is only updated
now for the drivers using the legacy interface.

Upcoming patch will redefine possible states of a clockevent
device. The RESUME mode is a special case only for tick's
clockevent devices. In future it can be replaced by ->resume()
callback already available for clockevent devices.
Lets handle it separately so that clockevents_set_mode() only
handles states valid across all devices. This also renames
set_mode_resume() to tick_resume() to make it more explicit.

While thinking on the whole clock discussion it occurred to me we have
two distinct uses of time:
1) the tracking of event/ctx/cgroup enabled/running/stopped times
which includes the self-monitoring support in struct
perf_event_mmap_page.
2) the actual timestamps visible in the data records.
And we've been conflating them.
The first is all about tracking time deltas, nobody should really care
in what time base that happens, its all relative information, as long
as its internally consistent it works.
The second however is what people are worried about when having to
merge their data with external sources. And here we have the
discussion on MONOTONIC vs MONOTONIC_RAW etc..
Where MONOTONIC is good for correlating between machines (static
offset), MONOTNIC_RAW is required for correlating against a fixed rate
hardware clock.
This means configurability; now 1) makes that hard because it needs to
be internally consistent across groups of unrelated events; which is
why we had to have a global perf_clock().
However, for 2) it doesn't really matter, perf itself doesn't care
what it writes into the buffer.
The below patch makes the distinction between these two cases by
adding perf_event_clock() which is used for the second case. It
further makes this configurable on a per-event basis, but adds a few
sanity checks such that we cannot combine events with different clocks
in confusing ways.
And since we then have per-event configurability we might as well
retain the 'legacy' behaviour as a default.

When a CPU is kicked to do nohz idle balancing, it wakes up to do load
balancing on itself, followed by load balancing on behalf of idle CPUs.
But it may end up with load after the load balancing attempt on itself.
This aborts nohz idle balancing. As a result several idle CPUs are left
without tasks till such a time that an ILB CPU finds it unfavorable to
pull tasks upon itself. This delays spreading of load across idle CPUs
and worse, clutters only a few CPUs with tasks.
The effect of the above problem was observed on an SMT8 POWER server
with 2 levels of numa domains. Busy loops equal to number of cores were
spawned. Since load balancing on fork/exec is discouraged across numa
domains, all busy loops would start on one of the numa domains. However
it was expected that eventually one busy loop would run per core across
all domains due to nohz idle load balancing. But it was observed that it
took as long as 10 seconds to spread the load across numa domains.
Further investigation showed that this was a consequence of the
following:
1. An ILB CPU was chosen from the first numa domain to trigger nohz idle
load balancing [Given the experiment, upto 6 CPUs per core could be
potentially idle in this domain.]
2. However the ILB CPU would call load_balance() on itself before
initiating nohz idle load balancing.
3. Given cores are SMT8, the ILB CPU had enough opportunities to pull
tasks from its sibling cores to even out load.
4. Now that the ILB CPU was no longer idle, it would abort nohz idle
load balancing
As a result the opportunities to spread load across numa domains were
lost until such a time that the cores within the first numa domain had
equal number of tasks among themselves. This is a pretty bad scenario,
since the cores within the first numa domain would have as many as 4
tasks each, while cores in the neighbouring numa domains would all
remain idle.
Fix this, by checking if a CPU was woken up to do nohz idle load
balancing, before it does load balancing upon itself. This way we allow
idle CPUs across the system to do load balancing which results in
quicker spread of load, instead of performing load balancing within the
local sched domain hierarchy of the ILB CPU alone under circumstances
such as above.

Currently the freq invariant accounting (in
__update_entity_runnable_avg() and sched_rt_avg_update()) get the
scale factor from a weak function call, this means that even for archs
that default on their implementation the compiler cannot see into this
function and optimize the extra scaling math away.
This is sad, esp. since its a 64-bit multiplication which can be quite
costly on some platforms.
So replace the weak function with #ifdef and __always_inline goo. This
is not quite as nice from an arch support PoV but should at least
result in compile time errors if done wrong.

When a CPU is used to handle a lot of IRQs or some RT tasks, the remaining
capacity for CFS tasks can be significantly reduced. Once we detect such
situation by comparing cpu_capacity_orig and cpu_capacity, we trig an idle
load balance to check if it's worth moving its tasks on an idle CPU.
It's worth trying to move the task before the CPU is fully utilized to
minimize the preemption by irq or RT tasks.
Once the idle load_balance has selected the busiest CPU, it will look for an
active load balance for only two cases:
- There is only 1 task on the busiest CPU.
- We haven't been able to move a task of the busiest rq.
A CPU with a reduced capacity is included in the 1st case, and it's worth to
actively migrate its task if the idle CPU has got more available capacity for
CFS tasks. This test has been added in need_active_balance.
As a sidenote, this will not generate more spurious ilb because we already
trig an ilb if there is more than 1 busy cpu. If this cpu is the only one that
has a task, we will trig the ilb once for migrating the task.
The nohz_kick_needed function has been cleaned up a bit while adding the new
test
env.src_cpu and env.src_rq must be set unconditionnally because they are used
in need_active_balance which is called even if busiest->nr_running equals 1

The scheduler tries to compute how many tasks a group of CPUs can handle by
assuming that a task's load is SCHED_LOAD_SCALE and a CPU's capacity is
SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE.
'struct sg_lb_stats:group_capacity_factor' divides the capacity of the group
by SCHED_LOAD_SCALE to estimate how many task can run in the group. Then, it
compares this value with the sum of nr_running to decide if the group is
overloaded or not.
But the 'group_capacity_factor' concept is hardly working for SMT systems, it
sometimes works for big cores but fails to do the right thing for little cores.
Below are two examples to illustrate the problem that this patch solves:
1- If the original capacity of a CPU is less than SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE
(640 as an example), a group of 3 CPUS will have a max capacity_factor of 2
(div_round_closest(3x640/1024) = 2) which means that it will be seen as
overloaded even if we have only one task per CPU.
2 - If the original capacity of a CPU is greater than SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE
(1512 as an example), a group of 4 CPUs will have a capacity_factor of 4
(at max and thanks to the fix [0] for SMT system that prevent the apparition
of ghost CPUs) but if one CPU is fully used by rt tasks (and its capacity is
reduced to nearly nothing), the capacity factor of the group will still be 4
(div_round_closest(3*1512/1024) = 5 which is cap to 4 with [0]).
So, this patch tries to solve this issue by removing capacity_factor and
replacing it with the 2 following metrics:
- The available CPU's capacity for CFS tasks which is already used by
load_balance().
- The usage of the CPU by the CFS tasks. For the latter, utilization_avg_contrib
has been re-introduced to compute the usage of a CPU by CFS tasks.
'group_capacity_factor' and 'group_has_free_capacity' has been removed and replaced
by 'group_no_capacity'. We compare the number of task with the number of CPUs and
we evaluate the level of utilization of the CPUs to define if a group is
overloaded or if a group has capacity to handle more tasks.
For SD_PREFER_SIBLING, a group is tagged overloaded if it has more than 1 task
so it will be selected in priority (among the overloaded groups). Since [1],
SD_PREFER_SIBLING is no more concerned by the computation of 'load_above_capacity'
because local is not overloaded.

Monitor the usage level of each group of each sched_domain level. The usage is
the portion of cpu_capacity_orig that is currently used on a CPU or group of
CPUs. We use the utilization_load_avg to evaluate the usage level of each
group.
The utilization_load_avg only takes into account the running time of the CFS
tasks on a CPU with a maximum value of SCHED_LOAD_SCALE when the CPU is fully
utilized. Nevertheless, we must cap utilization_load_avg which can be
temporally greater than SCHED_LOAD_SCALE after the migration of a task on this
CPU and until the metrics are stabilized.
The utilization_load_avg is in the range [0..SCHED_LOAD_SCALE] to reflect the
running load on the CPU whereas the available capacity for the CFS task is in
the range [0..cpu_capacity_orig]. In order to test if a CPU is fully utilized
by CFS tasks, we have to scale the utilization in the cpu_capacity_orig range
of the CPU to get the usage of the latter. The usage can then be compared with
the available capacity (ie cpu_capacity) to deduct the usage level of a CPU.
The frequency scaling invariance of the usage is not taken into account in this
patch, it will be solved in another patch which will deal with frequency
scaling invariance on the utilization_load_avg.

before being altered by rt tasks and/or IRQ
The cpu_capacity_orig will be used:
- to detect when the capacity of a CPU has been noticeably reduced so we can
trig load balance to look for a CPU with better capacity. As an example, we
can detect when a CPU handles a significant amount of irq
(with CONFIG_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING) but this CPU is seen as an idle CPU by
scheduler whereas CPUs, which are really idle, are available.
- evaluate the available capacity for CFS tasks

The average running time of RT tasks is used to estimate the remaining compute
capacity for CFS tasks. This remaining capacity is the original capacity scaled
down by a factor (aka scale_rt_capacity). This estimation of available capacity
must also be invariant with frequency scaling.
A frequency scaling factor is applied on the running time of the RT tasks for
computing scale_rt_capacity.
In sched_rt_avg_update(), we now scale the RT execution time like below:
rq->rt_avg += rt_delta * arch_scale_freq_capacity() >> SCHED_CAPACITY_SHIFT
Then, scale_rt_capacity can be summarized by:
scale_rt_capacity = SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE * available / total
with available = total - rq->rt_avg
This has been been optimized in current code by:
scale_rt_capacity = available / (total >> SCHED_CAPACITY_SHIFT)
But we can also developed the equation like below:
scale_rt_capacity = SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE - ((rq->rt_avg << SCHED_CAPACITY_SHIFT) / total)
and we can optimize the equation by removing SCHED_CAPACITY_SHIFT shift in
the computation of rq->rt_avg and scale_rt_capacity().
so rq->rt_avg += rt_delta * arch_scale_freq_capacity()
and
scale_rt_capacity = SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE - (rq->rt_avg / total)
arch_scale_frequency_capacity() will be called in the hot path of the scheduler
which implies to have a short and efficient function.
As an example, arch_scale_frequency_capacity() should return a cached value that
is updated periodically outside of the hot path.

Apply frequency scale-invariance correction factor to usage tracking.
Each segment of the running_avg_sum geometric series is now scaled by the
current frequency so the utilization_avg_contrib of each entity will be
invariant with frequency scaling.
As a result, utilization_load_avg which is the sum of utilization_avg_contrib,
becomes invariant too. So the usage level that is returned by get_cpu_usage(),
stays relative to the max frequency as the cpu_capacity which is is compared against.
Then, we want the keep the load tracking values in a 32-bit type, which implies
that the max value of {runnable|running}_avg_sum must be lower than
2^32/88761=48388 (88761 is the max weigth of a task). As LOAD_AVG_MAX = 47742,
arch_scale_freq_capacity() must return a value less than
(48388/47742) << SCHED_CAPACITY_SHIFT = 1037 (SCHED_SCALE_CAPACITY = 1024).
So we define the range to [0..SCHED_SCALE_CAPACITY] in order to avoid overflow.

Currently sched_clock(), a very hot code path, is not optimized
to minimise its cache profile. In particular:
1. cd is not ____cacheline_aligned,
2. struct clock_data does not distinguish between hotpath and
coldpath data, reducing locality of reference in the hotpath,
3. Some hotpath data is missing from struct clock_data and is marked
__read_mostly (which more or less guarantees it will not share a
cache line with cd).
This patch corrects these problems by extracting all hotpath
data into a separate structure and using ____cacheline_aligned
to ensure the hotpath uses a single (64 byte) cache line.

Currently the scope of the raw_write_seqcount_begin/end() in
sched_clock_register() far exceeds the scope of the read section
in sched_clock(). This gives the impression of safety during
cursory review but achieves little.
Note that this is likely to be a latent issue at present because
sched_clock_register() is typically called before we enable
interrupts, however the issue does risk bugs being needlessly
introduced as the code evolves.
This patch fixes the problem by increasing the scope of the read
locking performed by sched_clock() to cover all data modified by
sched_clock_register.
We also improve clarity by moving writes to struct clock_data
that do not impact sched_clock() outside of the critical
section.

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 commit that added a check for this to checkpatch says:
"Using weak declarations can have unintended link defects. The __weak on
the declaration causes non-weak definitions to become weak."
In this case, when a PowerPC kernel is built with CONFIG_KPROBE_EVENT
but not CONFIG_UPROBE_EVENT, it generates the following warning:
WARNING: 1 bad relocations
c0000000014f2190 R_PPC64_ADDR64 uprobes_fetch_type_table
This is fixed by passing the fetch_table arrays to
traceprobe_parse_probe_arg() which also means that they can never be NULL.

TRACE_EVENT_FL_USE_CALL_FILTER flag in ftrace:functon event can be
removed. This flag was first introduced in commit
f306cc82a9 ("tracing: Update event filters for multibuffer").
Now, the only place uses this flag is ftrace:function, but the filter of
ftrace:function has a different code path with events/syscalls and
events/tracepoints. It uses ftrace_filter_write() and perf's
ftrace_profile_set_filter() to set the filter, the functionality of file
'tracing/events/ftrace/function/filter' is bypassed in function
init_pred(), in which case, neither call->filter nor file->filter is
used.
So we can safely remove TRACE_EVENT_FL_USE_CALL_FILTER flag from
ftrace:function events.

It has come to my attention that this_cpu_read/write are horrible on
architectures other than x86. Worse yet, they actually disable
preemption or interrupts! This caused some unexpected tracing results
on ARM.
101.356868: preempt_count_add <-ring_buffer_lock_reserve
101.356870: preempt_count_sub <-ring_buffer_lock_reserve
The ring_buffer_lock_reserve has recursion protection that requires
accessing a per cpu variable. But since preempt_disable() is traced, it
too got traced while accessing the variable that is suppose to prevent
recursion like this.
The generic version of this_cpu_read() and write() are:
#define this_cpu_generic_read(pcp) \
({ typeof(pcp) ret__; \
preempt_disable(); \
ret__ = *this_cpu_ptr(&(pcp)); \
preempt_enable(); \
ret__; \
})
#define this_cpu_generic_to_op(pcp, val, op) \
do { \
unsigned long flags; \
raw_local_irq_save(flags); \
*__this_cpu_ptr(&(pcp)) op val; \
raw_local_irq_restore(flags); \
} while (0)
Which is unacceptable for locations that know they are within preempt
disabled or interrupt disabled locations.
Paul McKenney stated that __this_cpu_() versions produce much better code on
other architectures than this_cpu_() does, if we know that the call is done in
a preempt disabled location.
I also changed the recursive_unlock() to use two local variables instead
of accessing the per_cpu variable twice.

When debugging the latencies on a 40 core box, where we hit 300 to
500 microsecond latencies, I found there was a huge contention on the
runqueue locks.
Investigating it further, running ftrace, I found that it was due to
the pulling of RT tasks.
The test that was run was the following:
cyclictest --numa -p95 -m -d0 -i100
This created a thread on each CPU, that would set its wakeup in iterations
of 100 microseconds. The -d0 means that all the threads had the same
interval (100us). Each thread sleeps for 100us and wakes up and measures
its latencies.
cyclictest is maintained at:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/clrkwllms/rt-tests.git
What happened was another RT task would be scheduled on one of the CPUs
that was running our test, when the other CPU tests went to sleep and
scheduled idle. This caused the "pull" operation to execute on all
these CPUs. Each one of these saw the RT task that was overloaded on
the CPU of the test that was still running, and each one tried
to grab that task in a thundering herd way.
To grab the task, each thread would do a double rq lock grab, grabbing
its own lock as well as the rq of the overloaded CPU. As the sched
domains on this box was rather flat for its size, I saw up to 12 CPUs
block on this lock at once. This caused a ripple affect with the
rq locks especially since the taking was done via a double rq lock, which
means that several of the CPUs had their own rq locks held while trying
to take this rq lock. As these locks were blocked, any wakeups or load
balanceing on these CPUs would also block on these locks, and the wait
time escalated.
I've tried various methods to lessen the load, but things like an
atomic counter to only let one CPU grab the task wont work, because
the task may have a limited affinity, and we may pick the wrong
CPU to take that lock and do the pull, to only find out that the
CPU we picked isn't in the task's affinity.
Instead of doing the PULL, I now have the CPUs that want the pull to
send over an IPI to the overloaded CPU, and let that CPU pick what
CPU to push the task to. No more need to grab the rq lock, and the
push/pull algorithm still works fine.
With this patch, the latency dropped to just 150us over a 20 hour run.
Without the patch, the huge latencies would trigger in seconds.
I've created a new sched feature called RT_PUSH_IPI, which is enabled
by default.
When RT_PUSH_IPI is not enabled, the old method of grabbing the rq locks
and having the pulling CPU do the work is implemented. When RT_PUSH_IPI
is enabled, the IPI is sent to the overloaded CPU to do a push.
To enabled or disable this at run time:
# mount -t debugfs nodev /sys/kernel/debug
# echo RT_PUSH_IPI > /sys/kernel/debug/sched_features
or
# echo NO_RT_PUSH_IPI > /sys/kernel/debug/sched_features
Update: This original patch would send an IPI to all CPUs in the RT overload
list. But that could theoretically cause the reverse issue. That is, there
could be lots of overloaded RT queues and one CPU lowers its priority. It would
then send an IPI to all the overloaded RT queues and they could then all try
to grab the rq lock of the CPU lowering its priority, and then we have the
same problem.
The latest design sends out only one IPI to the first overloaded CPU. It tries to
push any tasks that it can, and then looks for the next overloaded CPU that can
push to the source CPU. The IPIs stop when all overloaded CPUs that have pushable
tasks that have priorities greater than the source CPU are covered. In case the
source CPU lowers its priority again, a flag is set to tell the IPI traversal to
restart with the first RT overloaded CPU after the source CPU.

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.

Which is caused by an irq_work generating new irq_work and therefore
not allowing forward progress.
This happens because processing the perf irq_work triggers another
perf event (tracepoint stuff) which in turn generates an irq_work ad

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

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.

As noted in earlier commit logs, CPU hotplug operations running
concurrently with grace-period initialization can result in a given
leaf rcu_node structure having all CPUs offline and no blocked readers,
but with this rcu_node structure nevertheless blocking the current
grace period. Therefore, the quiescent-state forcing code now checks
for this situation and repairs it.
Unfortunately, this checking can result in false positives, for example,
when the last task has just removed itself from this leaf rcu_node
structure, but has not yet started clearing the ->qsmask bits further
up the structure. This means that the grace-period kthread (which
forces quiescent states) and some other task might be attempting to
concurrently clear these ->qsmask bits. This is usually not a problem:
One of these tasks will be the first to acquire the upper-level rcu_node
structure's lock and with therefore clear the bit, and the other task,
seeing the bit already cleared, will stop trying to clear bits.
Sadly, this means that the following unusual sequence of events -can-
result in a problem:
1. The grace-period kthread wins, and clears the ->qsmask bits.
2. This is the last thing blocking the current grace period, so
that the grace-period kthread clears ->qsmask bits all the way
to the root and finds that the root ->qsmask field is now zero.
3. Another grace period is required, so that the grace period kthread
initializes it, including setting all the needed qsmask bits.
4. The leaf rcu_node structure (the one that started this whole
mess) is blocking this new grace period, either because it
has at least one online CPU or because there is at least one
task that had blocked within an RCU read-side critical section
while running on one of this leaf rcu_node structure's CPUs.
(And yes, that CPU might well have gone offline before the
grace period in step (3) above started, which can mean that
there is a task on the leaf rcu_node structure's ->blkd_tasks
list, but ->qsmask equal to zero.)
5. The other kthread didn't get around to trying to clear the upper
level ->qsmask bits until all the above had happened. This means
that it now sees bits set in the upper-level ->qsmask field, so it
proceeds to clear them. Too bad that it is doing so on behalf of
a quiescent state that does not apply to the current grace period!
This sequence of events can result in the new grace period being too
short. It can also result in the new grace period ending before the
leaf rcu_node structure's ->qsmask bits have been cleared, which will
result in splats during initialization of the next grace period. In
addition, it can result in tasks blocking the new grace period still
being queued at the start of the next grace period, which will result
in other splats. Sasha's testing turned up another of these splats,
as did rcutorture testing. (And yes, rcutorture is being adjusted to
make these splats show up more quickly. Which probably is having the
undesirable side effect of making other problems show up less quickly.
Can't have everything!)

As noted earlier, the following sequence of events can occur when
running PREEMPT_RCU and HOTPLUG_CPU on a system with a multi-level
rcu_node combining tree:
1. A group of tasks block on CPUs corresponding to a given leaf
rcu_node structure while within RCU read-side critical sections.
2. All CPUs corrsponding to that rcu_node structure go offline.
3. The next grace period starts, but because there are still tasks
blocked, the upper-level bits corresponding to this leaf rcu_node
structure remain set.
4. All the tasks exit their RCU read-side critical sections and
remove themselves from the leaf rcu_node structure's list,
leaving it empty.
5. But because there now is code to check for this condition at
force-quiescent-state time, the upper bits are cleared and the
grace period completes.
However, there is another complication that can occur following step 4 above:
4a. The grace period starts, and the leaf rcu_node structure's
gp_tasks pointer is set to NULL because there are no tasks
blocked on this structure.
4b. One of the CPUs corresponding to the leaf rcu_node structure
comes back online.
4b. An endless stream of tasks are preempted within RCU read-side
critical sections on this CPU, such that the ->blkd_tasks
list is always non-empty.
The grace period will never end.
This commit therefore makes the force-quiescent-state processing check only
for absence of tasks blocking the current grace period rather than absence
of tasks altogether. This will cause a quiescent state to be reported if
the current leaf rcu_node structure is not blocking the current grace period
and its parent thinks that it is, regardless of how RCU managed to get
itself into this state.

Ensure that cpus specified with the isolcpus= boot commandline
option stay outside of the load balancing in the kernel scheduler.
Operations like load balancing can introduce unwanted latencies,
which is exactly what the isolcpus= commandline is there to prevent.
Previously, simply creating a new cpuset, without even touching the
cpuset.cpus field inside the new cpuset, would undo the effects of
isolcpus=, by creating a scheduler domain spanning the whole system,
and setting up load balancing inside that domain. The cpuset root
cpuset.cpus file is read-only, so there was not even a way to undo
that effect.
This does not impact the majority of cpusets users, since isolcpus=
is a fairly specialized feature used for realtime purposes.

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.

Pull full dynticks support for virt guests from Frederic Weisbecker:
"Some measurements showed that disabling the tick on the host while the
guest is running can be interesting on some workloads. Indeed the
host tick is irrelevant while a vcpu runs, it consumes CPU time and cache
footprint for no good reasons.
Full dynticks already works in every context, but RCU prevents it to
be effective outside userspace, because the CPU needs to take part of
RCU grace period completion as long as RCU may be used on it, which is
the case in kernel context.
However guest is similar to userspace and idle in that we know RCU is
unused on such context. Therefore a CPU in guest/userspace/idle context
can let other CPUs report its own RCU quiescent state on its behalf
and shut down the tick safely, provided it isn't needed for other
reasons than RCU. This is called RCU extended quiescent state.
This was already implemented for idle and userspace. This patchset now
brings it for guest contexts through the following steps:
- Generalize the context tracking APIs to also track guest state
- Rename/sanitize a few CPP symbols accordingly
- Report guest entry/exit to RCU and define this context area as an RCU
extended quiescent state."

The clocksource watchdog reporting has been less helpful

Thus this patch tries to improve the output when we
mark a clocksource as unstable, printing out the cycle

and the watchdog clocksource. This will allow us to see
if the result was due to a false positive caused by

[ Minor cleanups of kernel messages. ]
Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
It was suggested that the underflow/overflow protection
should probably throw some sort of warning out, rather
than just silently fixing the issue.
So this patch adds some warnings here. The flag variables
used are not protected by locks, but since we can't print
from the reading functions, just being able to say we
saw an issue in the update interval is useful enough,
and can be slightly racy without real consequence.
The big complication is that we're only under a read
seqlock, so the data could shift under us during
our calculation to see if there was a problem. This
patch avoids this issue by nesting another seqlock
which allows us to snapshot the just required values
atomically. So we shouldn't see false positives.
I also added some basic rate-limiting here, since
on one build machine w/ skewed TSCs it was fairly
noisy at bootup.

In the case where there is a broken clocksource
where there are multiple actual clocks that
aren't perfectly aligned, we may see small "negative"
deltas when we subtract 'now' from 'cycle_last'.
The values are actually negative with respect to the
clocksource mask value, not necessarily negative
if cast to a s64, but we can check by checking the
delta to see if it is a small (relative to the mask)
negative value (again negative relative to the mask).
If so, we assume we jumped backwards somehow and
instead use zero for our delta.

When calculating the current delta since the last tick, we
currently have no hard protections to prevent a multiplication
overflow from occuring.
This patch introduces infrastructure to allow a cap that
limits the clocksource read delta value to the 'max_cycles' value,
which is where an overflow would occur.
Since this is in the hotpath, it adds the extra checking under
CONFIG_DEBUG_TIMEKEEPING=y.
There was some concern that capping time like this could cause
problems as we may stop expiring timers, which could go circular
if the timer that triggers time accumulation were mis-scheduled
too far in the future, which would cause time to stop.
However, since the mult overflow would result in a smaller time
value, we would effectively have the same problem there.

Recently there's been requests for better sanity
checking in the time code, so that it's more clear
when something is going wrong, since timekeeping issues
could manifest in a large number of strange ways in
various subsystems.
Thus, this patch adds some extra infrastructure to
add a check to update_wall_time() to print two new
warnings:
1) if we see the call delayed beyond the 'max_cycles'
overflow point,
2) or if we see the call delayed beyond the clocksource's
'max_idle_ns' value, which is currently 50% of the
overflow point.
This extra infrastructure is conditional on
a new CONFIG_DEBUG_TIMEKEEPING option, also
added in this patch - default off.
Tested this a bit by halting qemu for specified
lengths of time to trigger the warnings.

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.

Because that RCU grace-period initialization need no longer exclude
CPU-hotplug operations, this commit eliminates the ->onoff_mutex and
its uses.
Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
Races between CPU hotplug and grace periods can be difficult to resolve,
so the ->onoff_mutex is used to exclude the two events. Unfortunately,
this means that it is impossible for an outgoing CPU to perform the
last bits of its offlining from its last pass through the idle loop,
because sleeplocks cannot be acquired in that context.
This commit avoids these problems by buffering online and offline events
in a new ->qsmaskinitnext field in the leaf rcu_node structures. When a
grace period starts, the events accumulated in this mask are applied to
the ->qsmaskinit field, and, if needed, up the rcu_node tree. The special
case of all CPUs corresponding to a given leaf rcu_node structure being
offline while there are still elements in that structure's ->blkd_tasks
list is handled using a new ->wait_blkd_tasks field. In this case,
propagating the offline bits up the tree is deferred until the beginning
of the grace period after all of the tasks have exited their RCU read-side
critical sections and removed themselves from the list, at which point
the ->wait_blkd_tasks flag is cleared. If one of that leaf rcu_node
structure's CPUs comes back online before the list empties, then the
->wait_blkd_tasks flag is simply cleared.
This of course means that RCU's notion of which CPUs are offline can be
out of date. This is OK because RCU need only wait on CPUs that were
online at the time that the grace period started. In addition, RCU's
force-quiescent-state actions will handle the case where a CPU goes
offline after the grace period starts.
Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
The rcu_report_unblock_qs_rnp() function is invoked when the
last task blocking the current grace period exits its outermost
RCU read-side critical section. Previously, this was called only
from rcu_read_unlock_special(), and was therefore defined only when
CONFIG_RCU_PREEMPT=y. However, this function will be invoked even when
CONFIG_RCU_PREEMPT=n once CPU-hotplug operations are processed only at
the beginnings of RCU grace periods. The reason for this change is that
the last task on a given leaf rcu_node structure's ->blkd_tasks list
might well exit its RCU read-side critical section between the time that
recent CPU-hotplug operations were applied and when the new grace period
was initialized. This situation could result in RCU waiting forever on
that leaf rcu_node structure, because if all that structure's CPUs were
already offline, there would be no quiescent-state events to drive that
structure's part of the grace period.
This commit therefore moves rcu_report_unblock_qs_rnp() to common code
that is built unconditionally so that the quiescent-state-forcing code
can clean up after this situation, avoiding the grace-period stall.

Currently, the rcu_node tree ->expmask bitmasks are initially set to
reflect the online CPUs. This is pointless, because only the CPUs
preempted within RCU read-side critical sections by the preceding
synchronize_sched_expedited() need to be tracked. This commit therefore
instead sets up these bitmasks based on the state of the ->blkd_tasks
lists.

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.

The clocksource logic has a number of places where we try to
include a safety margin. Most of these are 12% safety margins,
but they are inconsistently applied and sometimes are applied
on top of each other.
Additionally, in the previous patch, we corrected an issue
where we unintentionally in effect created a 50% safety margin,
which these 12.5% margins where then added to.
So to simplify the logic here, this patch removes the various
12.5% margins, and consolidates adding the margin in one place:
clocks_calc_max_nsecs().
Additionally, Linus prefers a 50% safety margin, as it allows
bad clock values to be more easily caught. This should really

The previous clocks_calc_max_nsecs() code had some unecessarily
complex bit logic to find the max interval that could cause
multiplication overflows. Since this is not in the hot
path, just do the divide to make it easier to read.
The previous implementation also had a subtle issue
that it avoided overflows with signed 64-bit values, where
as the intervals are always unsigned. This resulted in
overly conservative intervals, which other safety margins
were then added to, reducing the intended interval length.

Offline CPUs cannot safely invoke trace events, but such CPUs do execute
within rcu_cpu_notify(). Therefore, this commit removes the trace events
from rcu_cpu_notify(). These trace events are for utilization, against
which rcu_cpu_notify() execution time should be negligible.

Grace-period initialization normally proceeds quite quickly, so
that it is very difficult to reproduce races against grace-period
initialization. This commit therefore allows grace-period
initialization to be artificially slowed down, increasing
race-reproduction probability. A pair of new Kconfig parameters are
provided, CONFIG_RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT to enable the slowdowns, and
CONFIG_RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT_DELAY to specify the number of jiffies
of slowdown to apply. A boot-time parameter named rcutree.gp_init_delay
allows boot-time delay to be specified. By default, no delay will be
applied even if CONFIG_RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT is set.

due to starvation of the grace-period kthread or to failure to propagate

Currently, both rcu_cleanup_dead_cpu() and rcu_send_cbs_to_orphanage()
initialize the outgoing CPU's callback list. However, only
rcu_cleanup_dead_cpu() invokes rcu_send_cbs_to_orphanage(), and
it does so unconditionally, which means that only one of these
initializations is required. This commit therefore consolidates the
callback-list initialization with the rest of the callback handling in
rcu_send_cbs_to_orphanage().

RCU ignores offlined CPUs, so they cannot safely run RCU read-side code.
(They -can- use SRCU, but not RCU.) This means that any use of RCU
during or after the call to arch_cpu_idle_dead(). Unfortunately,
commit 2ed53c0d6c added a complete() call, which will contain RCU
read-side critical sections if there is a task waiting to be awakened.
Which, as it turns out, there almost never is. In my qemu/KVM testing,
the to-be-awakened task is not yet asleep more than 99.5% of the time.
In current mainline, failure is even harder to reproduce, requiring a
virtualized environment that delays the outgoing CPU by at least three
jiffies between the time it exits its stop_machine() task at CPU_DYING
time and the time it calls arch_cpu_idle_dead() from the idle loop.
However, this problem really can occur, especially in virtualized
environments, and therefore really does need to be fixed
This suggests moving back to the polling loop, but using a much shorter
wait, with gentle exponential backoff instead of the old 100-millisecond
wait. Most of the time, the loop will exit without waiting at all,
and almost all of the remaining uses will wait only five microseconds.
If the outgoing CPU is preempted, a loop will wait one jiffy, then
increase the wait by a factor of 11/10ths, rounding up. As before, there
is a five-second timeout.
This commit therefore provides common-code infrastructure to do the
dying-to-surviving CPU handoff in a safe manner. This code also
provides an indication at CPU-online of whether the CPU to be onlined
previously timed out on offline. The new cpu_check_up_prepare() function
returns -EBUSY if this CPU previously took more than five seconds to
go offline, or -EAGAIN if it has not yet managed to go offline. The
rationale for -EAGAIN is that it might still be preempted, so an additional
wait might well find it correctly offlined. Architecture-specific code
can decide how to handle these conditions. Systems in which CPUs take
themselves completely offline might respond to an -EBUSY return as if
it was a zero (success) return. Systems in which the surviving CPU must
take some action might take it at this time, or might simply mark the
other CPU as unusable.
Note that architectures that take the easy way out and simply pass the
-EBUSY and -EAGAIN upwards will change the sysfs API.

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

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.

The nature of the context we track is now detailed in a ctx_state

track kernel <> user space switching, but also kernel <> guest transitions.
But leave the old functions in order to avoid breaking ARM, which calls

Current context tracking symbols are designed to express living state.
As such they are prefixed with "IN_": IN_USER, IN_KERNEL.
Now we are going to use these symbols to also express state transitions
such as context_tracking_enter(IN_USER) or context_tracking_exit(IN_USER).
But while the "IN_" prefix works well to express entering a context, it's
confusing to depict a context exit: context_tracking_exit(IN_USER)
could mean two things:
1) We are exiting the current context to enter user context.
2) We are exiting the user context
We want 2) but the reviewer may be confused and understand 1)
So lets disambiguate these symbols and rename them to CONTEXT_USER and
CONTEXT_KERNEL.

Workqueues are used extensively throughout the kernel but sometimes
it's difficult to debug stalls involving work items because visibility
into its inner workings is fairly limited. Although sysrq-t task dump
annotates each active worker task with the information on the work
item being executed, it is challenging to find out which work items
are pending or delayed on which queues and how pools are being
managed.
This patch implements show_workqueue_state() which dumps all busy
workqueues and pools and is called from the sysrq-t handler. At the
end of sysrq-t dump, something like the following is printed.
Showing busy workqueues and worker pools:
...
workqueue filler_wq: flags=0x0
pwq 2: cpus=1 node=0 flags=0x0 nice=0 active=2/256
in-flight: 491:filler_workfn, 507:filler_workfn
pwq 0: cpus=0 node=0 flags=0x0 nice=0 active=2/256
in-flight: 501:filler_workfn
pending: filler_workfn
...
workqueue test_wq: flags=0x8
pwq 2: cpus=1 node=0 flags=0x0 nice=0 active=1/1
in-flight: 510(RESCUER):test_workfn BAR(69) BAR(500)
delayed: test_workfn1 BAR(492), test_workfn2
...
pool 0: cpus=0 node=0 flags=0x0 nice=0 workers=2 manager: 137
pool 2: cpus=1 node=0 flags=0x0 nice=0 workers=3 manager: 469
pool 3: cpus=1 node=0 flags=0x0 nice=-20 workers=2 idle: 16
pool 8: cpus=0-3 flags=0x4 nice=0 workers=2 manager: 62
The above shows that test_wq is executing test_workfn() on pid 510
which is the rescuer and also that there are two tasks 69 and 500
waiting for the work item to finish in flush_work(). As test_wq has
max_active of 1, there are two work items for test_workfn1() and
test_workfn2() which are delayed till the current work item is
finished. In addition, pid 492 is flushing test_workfn1().
The work item for test_workfn() is being executed on pwq of pool 2
which is the normal priority per-cpu pool for CPU 1. The pool has
three workers, two of which are executing filler_workfn() for
filler_wq and the last one is assuming the manager role trying to
create more workers.
This extra workqueue state dump will hopefully help chasing down hangs
involving workqueues.
v3: cpulist_pr_cont() replaced with "%*pbl" printf formatting.
v2: As suggested by Andrew, minor formatting change in pr_cont_work(),
printk()'s replaced with pr_info()'s, and cpumask printing now
uses cpulist_pr_cont().

The workqueues list is protected by wq_pool_mutex and a workqueue and
its subordinate data structures are freed directly on destruction. We
want to add the ability dump workqueues from a sysrq callback which
requires walking all workqueues without grabbing wq_pool_mutex. This
patch makes freeing of workqueues RCU protected and makes the
workqueues list walkable while holding RCU read lock.
Note that pool_workqueues and pools are already sched-RCU protected.
For consistency, workqueues are also protected with sched-RCU.
While at it, reverse the workqueues list so that a workqueue which is
created earlier comes before. The order of the list isn't significant
functionally but this makes the planned sysrq dump list system
workqueues first.

Ming reported soft lockups occurring when running xfstest due to
the following tip:locking/core commit:
b3fd4f03ca ("locking/rwsem: Avoid deceiving lock spinners")
When doing optimistic spinning in rwsem, threads should stop
spinning when the lock owner is not running. While a thread is
spinning on owner, if the owner reschedules, owner->on_cpu
returns false and we stop spinning.
However, this commit essentially caused the check to get
ignored because when we break out of the spin loop due to
!on_cpu, we continue spinning if sem->owner != NULL.
This patch fixes this by making sure we stop spinning if the
owner is not running. Furthermore, just like with mutexes,
refactor the code such that we don't have separate checks for
owner_running(). This makes it more straightforward in terms of
why we exit the spin on owner loop and we would also avoid
needing to "guess" why we broke out of the loop to make this
more readable.

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

net/built-in.o:(.rodata+0x1cd8): undefined reference to `bpf_map_delete_elem_proto'
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

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.

Pull locking fix from Ingo Molnar:
"An rtmutex deadlock path fixlet"
* 'locking-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
locking/rtmutex: Set state back to running on error
This work extends the "classic" BPF programmable tc classifier by
extending its scope also to native eBPF code!
This allows for user space to implement own custom, 'safe' C like
classifiers (or whatever other frontend language LLVM et al may
provide in future), that can then be compiled with the LLVM eBPF
backend to an eBPF elf file. The result of this can be loaded into
the kernel via iproute2's tc. In the kernel, they can be JITed on
major archs and thus run in native performance.
Simple, minimal toy example to demonstrate the workflow:
#include <linux/ip.h>
#include <linux/if_ether.h>
#include <linux/bpf.h>
#include "tc_bpf_api.h"
__section("classify")
int cls_main(struct sk_buff *skb)
{
return (0x800 << 16) | load_byte(skb, ETH_HLEN + __builtin_offsetof(struct iphdr, tos));
}
char __license[] __section("license") = "GPL";
The classifier can then be compiled into eBPF opcodes and loaded
via tc, for example:
clang -O2 -emit-llvm -c cls.c -o - | llc -march=bpf -filetype=obj -o cls.o
tc filter add dev em1 parent 1: bpf cls.o [...]
As it has been demonstrated, the scope can even reach up to a fully
fledged flow dissector (similarly as in samples/bpf/sockex2_kern.c).
For tc, maps are allowed to be used, but from kernel context only,
in other words, eBPF code can keep state across filter invocations.
In future, we perhaps may reattach from a different application to
those maps e.g., to read out collected statistics/state.
Similarly as in socket filters, we may extend functionality for eBPF
classifiers over time depending on the use cases. For that purpose,
cls_bpf programs are using BPF_PROG_TYPE_SCHED_CLS program type, so
we can allow additional functions/accessors (e.g. an ABI compatible
offset translation to skb fields/metadata). For an initial cls_bpf
support, we allow the same set of helper functions as eBPF socket
filters, but we could diverge at some point in time w/o problem.
I was wondering whether cls_bpf and act_bpf could share C programs,
I can imagine that at some point, we introduce i) further common
handlers for both (or even beyond their scope), and/or if truly needed
ii) some restricted function space for each of them. Both can be
abstracted easily through struct bpf_verifier_ops in future.
The context of cls_bpf versus act_bpf is slightly different though:
a cls_bpf program will return a specific classid whereas act_bpf a
drop/non-drop return code, latter may also in future mangle skbs.
That said, we can surely have a "classify" and "action" section in
a single object file, or considered mentioned constraint add a
possibility of a shared section.
The workflow for getting native eBPF running from tc [1] is as
follows: for f_bpf, I've added a slightly modified ELF parser code
from Alexei's kernel sample, which reads out the LLVM compiled
object, sets up maps (and dynamically fixes up map fds) if any, and
loads the eBPF instructions all centrally through the bpf syscall.
The resulting fd from the loaded program itself is being passed down
to cls_bpf, which looks up struct bpf_prog from the fd store, and
holds reference, so that it stays available also after tc program
lifetime. On tc filter destruction, it will then drop its reference.
Moreover, I've also added the optional possibility to annotate an
eBPF filter with a name (e.g. path to object file, or something
else if preferred) so that when tc dumps currently installed filters,
some more context can be given to an admin for a given instance (as
opposed to just the file descriptor number).
Last but not least, bpf_prog_get() and bpf_prog_put() needed to be
exported, so that eBPF can be used from cls_bpf built as a module.
Thanks to 60a3b2253c ("net: bpf: make eBPF interpreter images
read-only") I think this is of no concern since anything wanting to
alter eBPF opcode after verification stage would crash the kernel.

As discussed recently and at netconf/netdev01, we want to prevent making
bpf_verifier_ops registration available for modules, but have them at a
controlled place inside the kernel instead.
The reason for this is, that out-of-tree modules can go crazy and define
and register any verfifier ops they want, doing all sorts of crap, even
bypassing available GPLed eBPF helper functions. We don't want to offer
such a shiny playground, of course, but keep strict control to ourselves
inside the core kernel.
This also encourages us to design eBPF user helpers carefully and
generically, so they can be shared among various subsystems using eBPF.
For the eBPF traffic classifier (cls_bpf), it's a good start to share
the same helper facilities as we currently do in eBPF for socket filters.
That way, we have BPF_PROG_TYPE_SCHED_CLS look like it's own type, thus
one day if there's a good reason to diverge the set of helper functions
from the set available to socket filters, we keep ABI compatibility.
In future, we could place all bpf_prog_type_list at a central place,
perhaps.

- __rt_mutex_slowlock()
- sleep or not but do return with __set_current_state(TASK_RUNNING)

In the early error case where task_blocks_on_rt_mutex() return

Disabling interrupts at the end of cpuidle_enter_freeze() is not
useful, because its caller, cpuidle_idle_call(), re-enables them
right away after invoking it.
To avoid that unnecessary back and forth dance with interrupts,
make cpuidle_enter_freeze() enable interrupts after calling
enter_freeze_proper() and drop the local_irq_disable() at its
end, so that all of the code paths in it end up with interrupts
enabled. Then, cpuidle_idle_call() will not need to re-enable
interrupts after calling cpuidle_enter_freeze() any more, because
the latter will return with interrupts enabled, in analogy with
cpuidle_enter().

If the RCU grace-period kthread invoking rcu_sysidle_check_cpu()
happens to be running on the tick_do_timer_cpu initially,
then rcu_bind_gp_kthread() won't bind it. This kthread might
then migrate before invoking rcu_gp_fqs(), which will trigger the
WARN_ON_ONCE() in rcu_sysidle_check_cpu(). This commit therefore makes
rcu_bind_gp_kthread() do the binding even if the kthread is currently
on the same CPU. Because this incurs added overhead, this commit also
causes each RCU grace-period kthread to invoke rcu_bind_gp_kthread()
once at boot rather than at the beginning of each grace period.

On second and subsequent passes through quiescent-state forcing, the
isidle variable was initialized to false, which would prevent full sysidle
state from being reached if a grace period needed more than one round
of quiescent-state forcing (which most should not). However, the check
for offline CPUs in the quiescent-state forcing main loop had the wrong
sense, which could prevent CPUs from ever entering full sysidle state.

When CONFIG_PM_DEBUG=y, we provide a sysfs file (/sys/power/pm_test) for
selecting one of a few suspend test modes, where rather than entering a
full suspend state, the kernel will perform some subset of suspend
steps, wait 5 seconds, and then resume back to normal operation.
This mode is useful for (among other things) observing the state of the
system just before entering a sleep mode, for debugging or analysis
purposes. However, a constant 5 second wait is not sufficient for some
sorts of analysis; for example, on an SoC, one might want to use
external tools to probe the power states of various on-chip controllers
or clocks.
This patch turns this 5 second delay into a configurable module
parameter, so users can determine how long to wait in this
pseudo-suspend state before resuming the system.
Example (wait 30 seconds);
# echo 30 > /sys/module/suspend/parameters/pm_test_delay
# echo core > /sys/power/pm_test
# time echo mem > /sys/power/state
...

Add support for task events as well as system-wide events. This change
has a big impact on the way that we gather LLC occupancy values in
intel_cqm_event_read().
Currently, for system-wide (per-cpu) events we defer processing to
userspace which knows how to discard all but one cpu result per package.
Things aren't so simple for task events because we need to do the value
aggregation ourselves. To do this, we defer updating the LLC occupancy
value in event->count from intel_cqm_event_read() and do an SMP
cross-call to read values for all packages in intel_cqm_event_count().
We need to ensure that we only do this for one task event per cache
group, otherwise we'll report duplicate values.
If we're a system-wide event we want to fallback to the default
perf_event_count() implementation. Refactor this into a common function
so that we don't duplicate the code.
Also, introduce PERF_TYPE_INTEL_CQM, since we need a way to track an
event's task (if the event isn't per-cpu) inside of the Intel CQM PMU
driver. This task information is only availble in the upper layers of
the perf infrastructure.
Other perf backends stash the target task in event->hw.*target so we
need to do something similar. The task is used to determine whether
events should share a cache group and an RMID.

For PMU drivers that record per-package counters, the ->count variable
cannot be used to record an accurate aggregated value, since it's not
possible to perform SMP cross-calls to cpus on other packages from the
context in which we update ->count.
Introduce a new optional ->count() accessor function that can be used to
customize how values are collected. If a PMU driver doesn't provide a
->count() function, we fallback to the existing code.
There is necessarily a window of staleness with this approach because
the task that generated the counter value may not have been scheduled by
the cpu recently.
An alternative and more complex approach would be to use a hrtimer to
periodically refresh the values from a more permissive scheduling
context. So, we're trading off complexity for accuracy.

When file auditing is enabled, during a low memory situation, a memory
allocation with __GFP_FS can lead to pruning the inode cache. Which can,
in turn lead to audit_tree_freeing_mark() being called. This can call
audit_schedule_prune(), that tries to fork a pruning thread, and
waits until the thread is created. But forking needs memory, and the
memory allocations there are done with __GFP_FS.
So we are waiting merrily for some __GFP_FS memory allocations to complete,
while holding some filesystem locks. This can take a while ...

On non-developer devices, kgdb prevents the device from rebooting
after a panic.
Incase of panics and exceptions, to allow the device to reboot, prevent
entering debug mode to avoid getting stuck waiting for the user to
interact with debugger.
To avoid entering the debugger on panic/exception without any extra
configuration, panic_timeout is being used which can be set via
/proc/sys/kernel/panic at run time and CONFIG_PANIC_TIMEOUT sets the
default value.
Setting panic_timeout indicates that the user requested machine to
perform unattended reboot after panic. We dont want to get stuck waiting
for the user input incase of panic.

Currently kdb allows the output of comamnds to be filtered using the
| grep feature. This is useful but does not permit the output emitted
shortly after a string match to be examined without wading through the
entire unfiltered output of the command. Such a feature is particularly
useful to navigate function traces because these traces often have a
useful trigger string *before* the point of interest.
This patch reuses the existing filtering logic to introduce a simple
forward search to kdb that can be triggered from the more prompt.

Currently when the "| grep" feature is used to filter the output of a
command then the prompt is not displayed for the subsequent command.
Likewise any characters typed by the user are also not echoed to the
display. This rather disconcerting problem eventually corrects itself
when the user presses Enter and the kdb_grepping_flag is cleared as
kdb_parse() tries to make sense of whatever they typed.
This patch resolves the problem by moving the clearing of this flag
from the middle of command processing to the beginning.

Issuing a stack dump feels ergonomically wrong when entering due to NMI.
Entering due to NMI is normally a reaction to a user request, either the
NMI button on a server or a "magic knock" on a UART. Therefore the
backtrace behaviour on entry due to NMI should be like SysRq-g (no stack
dump) rather than like oops.
Note also that the stack dump does not offer any information that
cannot be trivial retrieved using the 'bt' command.

Currently when kdb traps printk messages then the raw log level prefix
(consisting of '\001' followed by a numeral) does not get stripped off
before the message is issued to the various I/O handlers supported by
kdb. This causes annoying visual noise as well as causing problems
grepping for ^. It is also a change of behaviour compared to normal usage
of printk() usage. For example <SysRq>-h ends up with different output to
that of kdb's "sr h".
This patch addresses the problem by stripping log levels from messages
before they are issued to the I/O handlers. printk() which can also
act as an i/o handler in some cases is special cased; if the caller
provided a log level then the prefix will be preserved when sent to
printk().
The addition of non-printable characters to the output of kdb commands is a
regression, albeit and extremely elderly one, introduced by commit
04d2c8c83d ("printk: convert the format for KERN_<LEVEL> to a 2 byte
pattern"). Note also that this patch does *not* restore the original
behaviour from v3.5. Instead it makes printk() from within a kdb command
display the message without any prefix (i.e. like printk() normally does).

If the CPU is running a realtime task that does not round-robin
with another realtime task of equal priority, there is no point
in keeping the scheduler tick going. After all, whenever the
scheduler tick runs, the kernel will just decide not to
reschedule.
Extend sched_can_stop_tick() to recognize these situations, and
inform the rest of the kernel that the scheduler tick can be
stopped.

The callback is invoked when process is scheduled in or out.
It provides mechanism for later patches to save/store the LBR
stack. For the schedule in case, the callback is invoked at

For hardware events, the userspace page of the event gets updated in
context switches, so if we read the timestamp in the page, we get
fresh info.
For software events, this is missing currently. This patch makes the
behavior consistent.
With this patch, we can implement clock_gettime(THREAD_CPUTIME) with
PERF_COUNT_SW_DUMMY in userspace as suggested by Andy and Peter. Code
like this:
if (pc->cap_user_time) {
do {
seq = pc->lock;
barrier();
running = pc->time_running;
cyc = rdtsc();
time_mult = pc->time_mult;
time_shift = pc->time_shift;
time_offset = pc->time_offset;
barrier();
} while (pc->lock != seq);
quot = (cyc >> time_shift);
rem = cyc & ((1 << time_shift) - 1);
delta = time_offset + quot * time_mult +
((rem * time_mult) >> time_shift);
running += delta;
return running;
}
I tried it on a busy system, the userspace page updating doesn't
have noticeable overhead.

37e9562453 ("locking/rwsem: Allow conservative optimistic
spinning when readers have lock") forced the default for
optimistic spinning to be disabled if the lock owner was
nil, which makes much sense for readers. However, while
it is not our priority, we can make some optimizations
for write-mostly workloads. We can bail the spinning step
and still be conservative if there are any active tasks,
otherwise there's really no reason not to spin, as the
semaphore is most likely unlocked.
This patch recovers most of a Unixbench 'execl' benchmark
throughput by sleeping less and making better average system
usage:

When readers hold the semaphore, the ->owner is nil. As such,
and unlike mutexes, '!owner' does not necessarily imply that
the lock is free. This will cause writers to potentially spin
excessively as they've been mislead to thinking they have a
chance of acquiring the lock, instead of blocking.
This patch therefore enhances the counter check when the owner
is not set by the time we've broken out of the loop. Otherwise
we can return true as a new owner has the lock and thus we want
to continue spinning. While at it, we can make rwsem_spin_on_owner()
less ambiguos and return right away under need_resched conditions.

In order to optimize the spinning step, we need to set the lock
owner as soon as the lock is acquired; after a successful counter
cmpxchg operation, that is. This is particularly useful as rwsems
need to set the owner to nil for readers, so there is a greater
chance of falling out of the spinning. Currently we only set the
owner much later in the game, in the more generic level -- latency
can be specially bad when waiting for a node->next pointer when
releasing the osq in up_write calls.
As such, update the owner inside rwsem_try_write_lock (when the
lock is obtained after blocking) and rwsem_try_write_lock_unqueued
(when the lock is obtained while spinning). This requires creating
a new internal rwsem.h header to share the owner related calls.
Also cleanup some headers for mutex and rwsem.

attach_to_pi_owner() checks p->mm to prevent attaching to kthreads and
this looks doubly wrong:
1. It should actually check PF_KTHREAD, kthread can do use_mm().
2. If this task is not kthread and it is actually the lock owner we can
wrongly return -EPERM instead of -ESRCH or retry-if-EAGAIN.
And note that this wrong EPERM is the likely case unless the exiting
task is (auto)reaped quickly, we check ->mm before PF_EXITING.

As suggested by Davidlohr, we could refactor mutex_spin_on_owner().
Currently, we split up owner_running() with mutex_spin_on_owner().
When the owner changes, we make duplicate owner checks which are not
necessary. It also makes the code a bit obscure as we are using a
second check to figure out why we broke out of the loop.
This patch modifies it such that we remove the owner_running() function
and the mutex_spin_on_owner() loop directly checks for if the owner changes,
if the owner is not running, or if we need to reschedule. If the owner
changes, we break out of the loop and return true. If the owner is not
running or if we need to reschedule, then break out of the loop and return
false.

In the mutex_spin_on_owner(), we return true only if lock->owner == NULL.
This was beneficial in situations where there were multiple threads
simultaneously spinning for the mutex. If another thread got the lock
while other spinner(s) were also doing mutex_spin_on_owner(), then the
other spinners would stop spinning. This workaround helped reduce the
chance that many spinners were simultaneously spinning for the mutex
which can help reduce contention in highly contended cases.
However, recent changes were made to the optimistic spinning code such
that instead of having all spinners simultaneously spin for the mutex,
we queue the spinners with an MCS lock such that only one thread spins
for the mutex at a time. Furthermore, the OSQ optimizations ensure that
spinners in the queue will stop waiting if it needs to reschedule.
Now, we don't have to worry about multiple threads spinning on owner
at the same time, and if lock->owner is not NULL at this point, it likely
means another thread happens to obtain the lock in the fastpath. In this
case, it would make sense for the spinner to continue spinning as long
as the spinner doesn't need to schedule and the mutex owner is running.
This patch changes this so that mutex_spin_on_owner() returns true when
the lock owner changes, which means a thread will only stop spinning
if it either needs to reschedule or if the lock owner is not running.
We saw up to a 5% performance improvement in the fserver workload with
this patch.

Commit 81907478c4 ("sched/fair: Avoid using uninitialized variable
in preferred_group_nid()") unconditionally initializes max_group with
NODE_MASK_NONE, this means that when !max_faults (max_group didn't get
set), we'll now continue the iteration with an empty mask.
Which in turn makes the actual body of the loop go away, so we'll just
iterate until completion; short circuit this by breaking out of the

There is a subtle interaction between the logic introduced in commit
e63da03639 ("sched/numa: Allow task switch if load imbalance improves"),
the way the load balancer counts the load on each NUMA node, and the way
NUMA hinting faults are done.
Specifically, the load balancer only counts currently running tasks
in the load, while NUMA hinting faults may cause tasks to stop, if
the page is locked by another task.
This could cause all of the threads of a large single instance workload,
like SPECjbb2005, to migrate to the same NUMA node. This was possible
because occasionally they all fault on the same few pages, and only one
of the threads remains runnable. That thread can move to the process's
preferred NUMA node without making the imbalance worse, because nothing
else is running at that time.
The fix is to check the direction of the net moving of load, and to
refuse a NUMA move if it would cause the system to move past the point
of balance. In an unbalanced state, only moves that bring us closer
to the balance point are allowed.

Setting the root group's cpu.rt_runtime_us to 0 is a bad thing; it
would disallow the kernel creating RT tasks.
One can of course still set it to 1, which will (likely) still wreck

Because task_group() uses a cache of autogroup_task_group(), whose
output depends on sched_class, switching classes can generate
problems.
In particular, when started as fair, the cache points to the
autogroup, so when switching to RT the tg_rt_schedulable() test fails
for every cpu.rt_{runtime,period}_us change because now the autogroup
has tasks and no runtime.
Furthermore, going back to the previous semantics of varying
task_group() with sched_class has the down-side that the sched_debug
output varies as well, even though the task really is in the
autogroup.
Therefore add an autogroup exception to tg_has_rt_tasks() -- such that
both (all) task_group() usages in sched/core now have one. And remove
all the remnants of the variable task_group() output.

It is not possible for the clockevents core to know which modes (other than
those with a corresponding feature flag) are supported by a particular
implementation. And drivers are expected to handle transition to all modes
elegantly, as ->set_mode() would be issued for them unconditionally.
Now, adding support for a new mode complicates things a bit if we want to use
the legacy ->set_mode() callback. We need to closely review all clockevents
drivers to see if they would break on addition of a new mode. And after such
reviews, it is found that we have to do non-trivial changes to most of the
drivers [1].
Introduce mode-specific set_mode_*() callbacks, some of which the drivers may or
may not implement. A missing callback would clearly convey the message that the
corresponding mode isn't supported.
A driver may still choose to keep supporting the legacy ->set_mode() callback,
but ->set_mode() wouldn't be supporting any new modes beyond RESUME. If a driver
wants to benefit from using a new mode, it would be required to migrate to
the mode specific callbacks.
The legacy ->set_mode() callback and the newly introduced mode-specific
callbacks are mutually exclusive. Only one of them should be supported by the
driver.
Sanity check is done at the time of registration to distinguish between optional
and required callbacks and to make error recovery and handling simpler. If the
legacy ->set_mode() callback is provided, all mode specific ones would be
ignored by the core but a warning is thrown if they are present.
Call sites calling ->set_mode() directly are also updated to use
__clockevents_set_mode() instead, as ->set_mode() may not be available anymore
for few drivers.

For things like netpoll there is a need to disable an interrupt from
atomic context. Currently netpoll uses disable_irq() which will
sleep-wait on threaded handlers and thus forced_irqthreads breaks
things.
Provide disable_hardirq(), which uses synchronize_hardirq() to only wait
for active hardirq handlers; also change synchronize_hardirq() to
return the status of threaded handlers.
This will allow one to try-disable an interrupt from atomic context, or
in case of request_threaded_irq() to only wait for the hardirq part.

Additional validation of adjtimex freq values to avoid
potential multiplication overflows were added in commit
5e5aeb4367 (time: adjtimex: Validate the ADJ_FREQUENCY values)
Unfortunately the patch used LONG_MAX/MIN instead of
LLONG_MAX/MIN, which was fine on 64-bit systems, but being
much smaller on 32-bit systems caused false positives
resulting in most direct frequency adjustments to fail w/
EINVAL.
ntpd only does direct frequency adjustments at startup, so
the issue was not as easily observed there, but other time
sync applications like ptpd and chrony were more effected by
the bug.
See bugs:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=92481https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1188074
This patch changes the checks to use LLONG_MAX for
clarity, and additionally the checks are disabled
on 32-bit systems since LLONG_MAX/PPM_SCALE is always
larger then the 32-bit long freq value, so multiplication
overflows aren't possible there.

io_schedule() calls blk_flush_plug() which, depending on the
contents of current->plug, can initiate arbitrary blk-io requests.
Note that this contrasts with blk_schedule_flush_plug() which requires
all non-trivial work to be handed off to a separate thread.
This makes it possible for io_schedule() to recurse, and initiating
block requests could possibly call mempool_alloc() which, in times of
memory pressure, uses io_schedule().
Apart from any stack usage issues, io_schedule() will not behave
correctly when called recursively as delayacct_blkio_start() does
not allow for repeated calls.
So:
- use ->in_iowait to detect recursion. Set it earlier, and restore
it to the old value.
- move the call to "raw_rq" after the call to blk_flush_plug().
As this is some sort of per-cpu thing, we want some chance that
we are on the right CPU
- When io_schedule() is called recurively, use blk_schedule_flush_plug()
which cannot further recurse.
- as this makes io_schedule() a lot more complex and as io_schedule()
must match io_schedule_timeout(), but all the changes in io_schedule_timeout()
and make io_schedule a simple wrapper for that.

Since the function graph tracer needs to disable preemption, it might
call preempt_schedule() after reenabling it if something triggered the
need for rescheduling in between.
Therefore we can't trace preempt_schedule() itself because we would
face a function tracing recursion otherwise as the tracer is always
called before PREEMPT_ACTIVE gets set to prevent that recursion. This is
why preempt_schedule() is tagged as "notrace".
But the same issue applies to every function called by preempt_schedule()
before PREEMPT_ACTIVE is actually set. And preempt_schedule_common() is
one such example. Unfortunately we forgot to tag it as notrace as well
and as a result we are encountering tracing recursion since it got
introduced by:
a18b5d0181 ("sched: Fix missing preemption opportunity")
Let's fix that by applying the appropriate function tag to
preempt_schedule_common().

deactivate_task()
dequeue_task_dl()

Later the timer fires, but the task is still dequeued:
dl_task_timer()
enqueue_task_dl() /* queues on dl_rq; on_rq remains 0 */
Someone wakes it up:
try_to_wake_up()
enqueue_dl_entity()

"The only reason we don't strictly need ->pi_lock now is because
we're guaranteed to have p->state == TASK_RUNNING here and are
thus free of ttwu races".
And therefore we have to use the full task_rq_lock() here.
This further amends the fact that we forgot to update the rq lock loop

Simplify the code around one of the conditionals in the kexec_load syscall
routine.
The original code was confusing with a redundant check on KEXEC_ON_CRASH
and comments outside of the conditional block. This change switches the
order of the conditional check, and cleans up the comments for the
conditional. There is no functional change to the code.

struct kimage has a member destination which is used to store the real
destination address of each page when load segment from user space buffer
to kernel. But we never retrieve the value stored in kimage->destination,
so this member variable in kimage and its assignment operation are
redundent code.
I guess for_each_kimage_entry just does the work that kimage->destination
is expected to do.
So in this patch just make a cleanup to remove it.

Till now suspend-to-idle has not been able to save much more energy
than runtime PM because of timer interrupts that periodically bring
CPUs out of idle while they are waiting for a wakeup interrupt. Of
course, the timer interrupts are not wakeup ones, so the handling of
them can be deferred until a real wakeup interrupt happens, but at
the same time we don't want to mass-expire timers at that point.
The solution is to suspend the entire timekeeping when the last CPU
is entering an idle state and resume it when the first CPU goes out
of idle. That has to be done with care, though, so as to avoid
accessing suspended clocksources etc. end we need extra support
from idle drivers for that.
This series of commits adds support for quiescing timers during
suspend-to-idle and adds the requisite callbacks to intel_idle
and the ACPI cpuidle driver.

that RDPMC access is only allowed if a perf event is mmap-ed (which is
needed to correctly interpret RDPMC counter values in any case).
As a side effect of these changes CR4 handling is cleaned up in the

The efficiency of suspend-to-idle depends on being able to keep CPUs
in the deepest available idle states for as much time as possible.
Ideally, they should only be brought out of idle by system wakeup
interrupts.
However, timer interrupts occurring periodically prevent that from
happening and it is not practical to chase all of the "misbehaving"
timers in a whack-a-mole fashion. A much more effective approach is
to suspend the local ticks for all CPUs and the entire timekeeping
along the lines of what is done during full suspend, which also
helps to keep suspend-to-idle and full suspend reasonably similar.
The idea is to suspend the local tick on each CPU executing
cpuidle_enter_freeze() and to make the last of them suspend the
entire timekeeping. That should prevent timer interrupts from
triggering until an IO interrupt wakes up one of the CPUs. It
needs to be done with interrupts disabled on all of the CPUs,
though, because otherwise the suspended clocksource might be
accessed by an interrupt handler which might lead to fatal
consequences.
Unfortunately, the existing ->enter callbacks provided by cpuidle
drivers generally cannot be used for implementing that, because some
of them re-enable interrupts temporarily and some idle entry methods
cause interrupts to be re-enabled automatically on exit. Also some
of these callbacks manipulate local clock event devices of the CPUs
which really shouldn't be done after suspending their ticks.
To overcome that difficulty, introduce a new cpuidle state callback,
->enter_freeze, that will be guaranteed (1) to keep interrupts
disabled all the time (and return with interrupts disabled) and (2)
not to touch the CPU timer devices. Modify cpuidle_enter_freeze() to
look for the deepest available idle state with ->enter_freeze present
and to make the CPU execute that callback with suspended tick (and the
last of the online CPUs to execute it with suspended timekeeping).

Theoretically, ktime_get_mono_fast_ns() may be executed after
timekeeping has been suspended (or before it is resumed) which
in turn may lead to undefined behavior, for example, when the
clocksource read from timekeeping_get_ns() called by it is
not accessible at that time.
Prevent that from happening by setting up a dummy readout base for
the fast timekeeper during timekeeping_suspend() such that it will
always return the same number of cycles.
After the last timekeeping_update() in timekeeping_suspend() the
clocksource is read and the result is stored as cycles_at_suspend.
The readout base from the current timekeeper is copied onto the
dummy and the ->read pointer of the dummy is set to a routine
unconditionally returning cycles_at_suspend. Next, the dummy is
passed to update_fast_timekeeper().
Then, ktime_get_mono_fast_ns() will work until the subsequent
timekeeping_resume() and the proper readout base for the fast
timekeeper will be restored by the timekeeping_update() called
right after clearing timekeeping_suspended.

In original code, the probed instruction doesn't get optimized after
echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/kprobes/enabled
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/kprobes/enabled
This is because original code checks kprobes_all_disarmed in
optimize_kprobe(), but this flag is turned off after calling that
function. Therefore, optimize_kprobe() will see kprobes_all_disarmed ==
true and doesn't do the optimization.
This patch simply turns off kprobes_all_disarmed earlier to enable
optimization.

This feature let us to detect accesses out of bounds of global variables.
This will work as for globals in kernel image, so for globals in modules.
Currently this won't work for symbols in user-specified sections (e.g.
__init, __read_mostly, ...)
The idea of this is simple. Compiler increases each global variable by
redzone size and add constructors invoking __asan_register_globals()
function. Information about global variable (address, size, size with
redzone ...) passed to __asan_register_globals() so we could poison
variable's redzone.
This patch also forces module_alloc() to return 8*PAGE_SIZE aligned
address making shadow memory handling (
kasan_module_alloc()/kasan_module_free() ) more simple. Such alignment
guarantees that each shadow page backing modules address space correspond
to only one module_alloc() allocation.

There are rare exceptions where these names are allocated and formatted

In preparation for adding support for quiescing timers in the final
stage of suspend-to-idle transitions, rework the freeze_enter()
function making the system wait on a wakeup event, the freeze_wake()
function terminating the suspend-to-idle loop and the mechanism by
which deep idle states are entered during suspend-to-idle.
First of all, introduce a simple state machine for suspend-to-idle
and make the code in question use it.
Second, prevent freeze_enter() from losing wakeup events due to race
conditions and ensure that the number of online CPUs won't change
while it is being executed. In addition to that, make it force
all of the CPUs re-enter the idle loop in case they are in idle
states already (so they can enter deeper idle states if possible).
Next, drop cpuidle_use_deepest_state() and replace use_deepest_state
checks in cpuidle_select() and cpuidle_reflect() with a single
suspend-to-idle state check in cpuidle_idle_call().
Finally, introduce cpuidle_enter_freeze() that will simply find the
deepest idle state available to the given CPU and enter it using
cpuidle_enter().

When the hypervisor pauses a virtualised kernel the kernel will observe a
jump in timebase, this can cause spurious messages from the softlockup
detector.
Whilst these messages are harmless, they are accompanied with a stack
trace which causes undue concern and more problematically the stack trace
in the guest has nothing to do with the observed problem and can only be
misleading.
Futhermore, on POWER8 this is completely avoidable with the introduction
of the Virtual Time Base (VTB) register.
This patch (of 2):
This permits the use of arch specific clocks for which virtualised kernels
can use their notion of 'running' time, not the elpased wall time which
will include host execution time.

If an attacker can cause a controlled kernel stack overflow, overwriting
the restart block is a very juicy exploit target. This is because the
restart_block is held in the same memory allocation as the kernel stack.
Moving the restart block to struct task_struct prevents this exploit by
making the restart_block harder to locate.
Note that there are other fields in thread_info that are also easy
targets, at least on some architectures.
It's also a decent simplification, since the restart code is more or less
identical on all architectures.

Currently, we release css->id in css_release_work_fn, right before calling
css_free callback, so that when css_free is called, the id may have
already been reused for a new cgroup.
I am going to use css->id to create unique names for per memcg kmem
caches. Since kmem caches are destroyed only on css_free, I need css->id
to be freed after css_free was called to avoid name clashes. This patch
therefore moves css->id removal to css_free_work_fn. To prevent
css_from_id from returning a pointer to a stale css, it makes
css_release_work_fn replace the css ptr at css_idr:css->id with NULL.

It would see that there was still not a full page, and go back to sleep

Userland code may be built using an ABI which permits linking to objects
that have more restrictive floating point requirements. For example,
userland code may be built to target the O32 FPXX ABI. Such code may be
linked with other FPXX code, or code built for either one of the more
restrictive FP32 or FP64. When linking with more restrictive code, the
overall requirement of the process becomes that of the more restrictive
code. The kernel has no way to know in advance which mode the process
will need to be executed in, and indeed it may need to change during
execution. The dynamic loader is the only code which will know the
overall required mode, and so it needs to have a means to instruct the
kernel to switch the FP mode of the process.
This patch introduces 2 new options to the prctl syscall which provide
such a capability. The FP mode of the process is represented as a
simple bitmask combining a number of mode bits mirroring those present
in the hardware. Userland can either retrieve the current FP mode of
the process:
mode = prctl(PR_GET_FP_MODE);
or modify the current FP mode of the process:
err = prctl(PR_SET_FP_MODE, new_mode);

The problem is that we check nr_ptes/nr_pmds in exit_mmap() which happens
*before* pgd_free(). And if an arch does pte/pmd allocation in
pgd_alloc() and frees them in pgd_free() we see offset in counters by the
time of the checks.
We tried to workaround this by offsetting expected counter value according
to FIRST_USER_ADDRESS for both nr_pte and nr_pmd in exit_mmap(). But it
doesn't work in some cases:
1. ARM with LPAE enabled also has non-zero USER_PGTABLES_CEILING, but
upper addresses occupied with huge pmd entries, so the trick with
offsetting expected counter value will get really ugly: we will have
to apply it nr_pmds, but not nr_ptes.
2. Metag has non-zero FIRST_USER_ADDRESS, but doesn't do allocation
pte/pmd page tables allocation in pgd_alloc(), just setup a pgd entry
which is allocated at boot and shared accross all processes.
The proposal is to move the check to check_mm() which happens *after*
pgd_free() and do proper accounting during pgd_alloc() and pgd_free()
which would bring counters to zero if nothing leaked.

Dave noticed that unprivileged process can allocate significant amount of
memory -- >500 MiB on x86_64 -- and stay unnoticed by oom-killer and
memory cgroup. The trick is to allocate a lot of PMD page tables. Linux
kernel doesn't account PMD tables to the process, only PTE.
The use-cases below use few tricks to allocate a lot of PMD page tables
while keeping VmRSS and VmPTE low. oom_score for the process will be 0.
#include <errno.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/mman.h>
#include <sys/prctl.h>
#define PUD_SIZE (1UL << 30)
#define PMD_SIZE (1UL << 21)
#define NR_PUD 130000
int main(void)
{
char *addr = NULL;
unsigned long i;
prctl(PR_SET_THP_DISABLE);
for (i = 0; i < NR_PUD ; i++) {
addr = mmap(addr + PUD_SIZE, PUD_SIZE, PROT_WRITE|PROT_READ,
MAP_ANONYMOUS|MAP_PRIVATE, -1, 0);
if (addr == MAP_FAILED) {
perror("mmap");
break;
}
*addr = 'x';
munmap(addr, PMD_SIZE);
mmap(addr, PMD_SIZE, PROT_WRITE|PROT_READ,
MAP_ANONYMOUS|MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_FIXED, -1, 0);
if (addr == MAP_FAILED)
perror("re-mmap"), exit(1);
}
printf("PID %d consumed %lu KiB in PMD page tables\n",
getpid(), i * 4096 >> 10);
return pause();
}
The patch addresses the issue by account PMD tables to the process the
same way we account PTE.
The main place where PMD tables is accounted is __pmd_alloc() and
free_pmd_range(). But there're few corner cases:
- HugeTLB can share PMD page tables. The patch handles by accounting
the table to all processes who share it.
- x86 PAE pre-allocates few PMD tables on fork.
- Architectures with FIRST_USER_ADDRESS > 0. We need to adjust sanity
check on exit(2).
Accounting only happens on configuration where PMD page table's level is
present (PMD is not folded). As with nr_ptes we use per-mm counter. The
counter value is used to calculate baseline for badness score by
oom-killer.

Commit 5695be142e ("OOM, PM: OOM killed task shouldn't escape PM
suspend") has left a race window when OOM killer manages to
note_oom_kill after freeze_processes checks the counter. The race
window is quite small and really unlikely and partial solution deemed
sufficient at the time of submission.
Tejun wasn't happy about this partial solution though and insisted on a
full solution. That requires the full OOM and freezer's task freezing
exclusion, though. This is done by this patch which introduces oom_sem
RW lock and turns oom_killer_disable() into a full OOM barrier.
oom_killer_disabled check is moved from the allocation path to the OOM
level and we take oom_sem for reading for both the check and the whole
OOM invocation.
oom_killer_disable() takes oom_sem for writing so it waits for all
currently running OOM killer invocations. Then it disable all the further
OOMs by setting oom_killer_disabled and checks for any oom victims.
Victims are counted via mark_tsk_oom_victim resp. unmark_oom_victim. The
last victim wakes up all waiters enqueued by oom_killer_disable().
Therefore this function acts as the full OOM barrier.
The page fault path is covered now as well although it was assumed to be
safe before. As per Tejun, "We used to have freezing points deep in file
system code which may be reacheable from page fault." so it would be
better and more robust to not rely on freezing points here. Same applies
to the memcg OOM killer.
out_of_memory tells the caller whether the OOM was allowed to trigger and
the callers are supposed to handle the situation. The page allocation
path simply fails the allocation same as before. The page fault path will
retry the fault (more on that later) and Sysrq OOM trigger will simply
complain to the log.
Normally there wouldn't be any unfrozen user tasks after
try_to_freeze_tasks so the function will not block. But if there was an
OOM killer racing with try_to_freeze_tasks and the OOM victim didn't
finish yet then we have to wait for it. This should complete in a finite
time, though, because
- the victim cannot loop in the page fault handler (it would die
on the way out from the exception)
- it cannot loop in the page allocator because all the further
allocation would fail and __GFP_NOFAIL allocations are not
acceptable at this stage
- it shouldn't be blocked on any locks held by frozen tasks
(try_to_freeze expects lockless context) and kernel threads and
work queues are not frozen yet

This patchset addresses a race which was described in the changelog for
5695be142e ("OOM, PM: OOM killed task shouldn't escape PM suspend"):
: PM freezer relies on having all tasks frozen by the time devices are
: getting frozen so that no task will touch them while they are getting
: frozen. But OOM killer is allowed to kill an already frozen task in order
: to handle OOM situtation. In order to protect from late wake ups OOM
: killer is disabled after all tasks are frozen. This, however, still keeps
: a window open when a killed task didn't manage to die by the time
: freeze_processes finishes.
The original patch hasn't closed the race window completely because that
would require a more complex solution as it can be seen by this patchset.
The primary motivation was to close the race condition between OOM killer
and PM freezer _completely_. As Tejun pointed out, even though the race
condition is unlikely the harder it would be to debug weird bugs deep in
the PM freezer when the debugging options are reduced considerably. I can
only speculate what might happen when a task is still runnable
unexpectedly.
On a plus side and as a side effect the oom enable/disable has a better
(full barrier) semantic without polluting hot paths.
I have tested the series in KVM with 100M RAM:
- many small tasks (20M anon mmap) which are triggering OOM continually
- s2ram which resumes automatically is triggered in a loop
echo processors > /sys/power/pm_test
while true
do
echo mem > /sys/power/state
sleep 1s
done
- simple module which allocates and frees 20M in 8K chunks. If it sees
freezing(current) then it tries another round of allocation before calling
try_to_freeze
- debugging messages of PM stages and OOM killer enable/disable/fail added
and unmark_oom_victim is delayed by 1s after it clears TIF_MEMDIE and before
it wakes up waiters.
- rebased on top of the current mmotm which means some necessary updates
in mm/oom_kill.c. mark_tsk_oom_victim is now called under task_lock but
I think this should be OK because __thaw_task shouldn't interfere with any
locking down wake_up_process. Oleg?
As expected there are no OOM killed tasks after oom is disabled and
allocations requested by the kernel thread are failing after all the tasks
are frozen and OOM disabled. I wasn't able to catch a race where
oom_killer_disable would really have to wait but I kinda expected the race
is really unlikely.

The first 2 patches are simple cleanups for OOM. They should go in
regardless the rest IMO.
Patches 3 and 4 are trivial printk -> pr_info conversion and they should
go in ditto.
The main patch is the last one and I would appreciate acks from Tejun and
Rafael. I think the OOM part should be OK (except for __thaw_task vs.
task_lock where a look from Oleg would appreciated) but I am not so sure I
haven't screwed anything in the freezer code. I have found several
surprises there.
This patch (of 5):
This patch is just a preparatory and it doesn't introduce any functional
change.
Note:
I am utterly unhappy about lowmemory killer abusing TIF_MEMDIE just to
wait for the oom victim and to prevent from new killing. This is
just a side effect of the flag. The primary meaning is to give the oom
victim access to the memory reserves and that shouldn't be necessary
here.

If the scheduling-clock interrupt sets the current tasks need_qs flag,
but if the current CPU passes through a quiescent state in the meantime,
then rcu_preempt_qs() will fail to clear the need_qs flag, which can fool
RCU into thinking that additional rcu_read_unlock_special() processing
is needed. This commit therefore clears the need_qs flag before checking
for additional processing.
For this problem to occur, we need rcu_preempt_data.passed_quiesce equal
to true and current->rcu_read_unlock_special.b.need_qs also equal to true.
This condition can occur as follows:
1. CPU 0 is aware of the current preemptible RCU grace period,
but has not yet passed through a quiescent state. Among other
things, this means that rcu_preempt_data.passed_quiesce is false.
2. Task A running on CPU 0 enters a preemptible RCU read-side
critical section.
3. CPU 0 takes a scheduling-clock interrupt, which notices the
RCU read-side critical section and the need for a quiescent state,
and thus sets current->rcu_read_unlock_special.b.need_qs to true.
4. Task A is preempted, enters the scheduler, eventually invoking
rcu_preempt_note_context_switch() which in turn invokes
rcu_preempt_qs().
Because rcu_preempt_data.passed_quiesce is false,
control enters the body of the "if" statement, which sets
rcu_preempt_data.passed_quiesce to true.
5. At this point, CPU 0 takes an interrupt. The interrupt
handler contains an RCU read-side critical section, and
the rcu_read_unlock() notes that current->rcu_read_unlock_special
is nonzero, and thus invokes rcu_read_unlock_special().
6. Once in rcu_read_unlock_special(), the fact that
current->rcu_read_unlock_special.b.need_qs is true becomes
apparent, so rcu_read_unlock_special() invokes rcu_preempt_qs().
Recursively, given that we interrupted out of that same
function in the preceding step.
7. Because rcu_preempt_data.passed_quiesce is now true,
rcu_preempt_qs() does nothing, and simply returns.
8. Upon return to rcu_read_unlock_special(), it is noted that
current->rcu_read_unlock_special is still nonzero (because
the interrupted rcu_preempt_qs() had not yet gotten around
to clearing current->rcu_read_unlock_special.b.need_qs).
9. Execution proceeds to the WARN_ON_ONCE(), which notes that
we are in an interrupt handler and thus duly splats.
The solution, as noted above, is to make rcu_read_unlock_special()
clear out current->rcu_read_unlock_special.b.need_qs after calling
rcu_preempt_qs(). The interrupted rcu_preempt_qs() will clear it again,
but this is harmless. The worst that happens is that we clobber another
attempt to set this field, but this is not a problem because we just
got done reporting a quiescent state.

When an application connects to the ring buffer via splice, it can only
read full pages. Splice does not work with partial pages. If there is
not enough data to fill a page, the splice command will either block
or return -EAGAIN (if set to nonblock).
Code was added where if the page is not full, to just sleep again.
The problem is, it will get woken up again on the next event. That
is, when something is written into the ring buffer, if there is a waiter
it will wake it up. The waiter would then check the buffer, see that
it still does not have enough data to fill a page and go back to sleep.
To make matters worse, when the waiter goes back to sleep, it could
cause another event, which would wake it back up again to see it
doesn't have enough data and sleep again. This produces a tremendous
overhead and fills the ring buffer with noise.
For example, recording sched_switch on an idle system for 10 seconds
produces 25,350,475 events!!!
Create another wait queue for those waiters wanting full pages.
When an event is written, it only wakes up waiters if there's a full
page of data. It does not wake up the waiter if the page is not yet
full.
After this change, recording sched_switch on an idle system for 10
seconds produces only 800 events. Getting rid of 25,349,675 useless
events (99.9969% of events!!), is something to take seriously.

Since the introduction of the nested sleep warning; we've established
that the occasional sleep inside a wait_event() is fine.
wait_event() loops are invariant wrt. spurious wakeups, and the
occasional sleep has a similar effect on them. As long as its occasional
its harmless.
Therefore replace the 'correct' but verbose wait_woken() thing with
a simple annotation to shut up the warning.

Pull live patching infrastructure from Jiri Kosina:
"Let me provide a bit of history first, before describing what is in
this pile.
Originally, there was kSplice as a standalone project that implemented
stop_machine()-based patching for the linux kernel. This project got
later acquired, and the current owner is providing live patching as a
proprietary service, without any intentions to have their
implementation merged.
Then, due to rising user/customer demand, both Red Hat and SUSE
started working on their own implementation (not knowing about each
other), and announced first versions roughly at the same time [1] [2].
The principle difference between the two solutions is how they are
making sure that the patching is performed in a consistent way when it
comes to different execution threads with respect to the semantic
nature of the change that is being introduced.
In a nutshell, kPatch is issuing stop_machine(), then looking at
stacks of all existing processess, and if it decides that the system
is in a state that can be patched safely, it proceeds insterting code
redirection machinery to the patched functions.
On the other hand, kGraft provides a per-thread consistency during one
single pass of a process through the kernel and performs a lazy
contignuous migration of threads from "unpatched" universe to the
"patched" one at safe checkpoints.
If interested in a more detailed discussion about the consistency
models and its possible combinations, please see the thread that
evolved around [3].
It pretty quickly became obvious to the interested parties that it's
absolutely impractical in this case to have several isolated solutions
for one task to co-exist in the kernel. During a dedicated Live
Kernel Patching track at LPC in Dusseldorf, all the interested parties
sat together and came up with a joint aproach that would work for both
distro vendors. Steven Rostedt took notes [4] from this meeting.
And the foundation for that aproach is what's present in this pull
request.
It provides a basic infrastructure for function "live patching" (i.e.
code redirection), including API for kernel modules containing the
actual patches, and API/ABI for userspace to be able to operate on the
patches (look up what patches are applied, enable/disable them, etc).
It's relatively simple and minimalistic, as it's making use of
existing kernel infrastructure (namely ftrace) as much as possible.
It's also self-contained, in a sense that it doesn't hook itself in
any other kernel subsystem (it doesn't even touch any other code).
It's now implemented for x86 only as a reference architecture, but
support for powerpc, s390 and arm is already in the works (adding
arch-specific support basically boils down to teaching ftrace about
regs-saving).
Once this common infrastructure gets merged, both Red Hat and SUSE
have agreed to immediately start porting their current solutions on
top of this, abandoning their out-of-tree code. The plan basically is
that each patch will be marked by flag(s) that would indicate which
consistency model it is willing to use (again, the details have been
sketched out already in the thread at [3]).
Before this happens, the current codebase can be used to patch a large
group of secruity/stability problems the patches for which are not too
complex (in a sense that they don't introduce non-trivial change of
function's return value semantics, they don't change layout of data
structures, etc) -- this corresponds to LEAVE_FUNCTION &&
SWITCH_FUNCTION semantics described at [3].

Merge misc updates from Andrew Morton:
"Bite-sized chunks this time, to avoid the MTA ratelimiting woes.
- fs/notify updates
- ocfs2
- some of MM"
That laconic "some MM" is mainly the removal of remap_file_pages(),
which is a big simplification of the VM, and which gets rid of a *lot*
of random cruft and special cases because we no longer support the
non-linear mappings that it used.
From a user interface perspective, nothing has changed, because the
remap_file_pages() syscall still exists, it's just done by emulating the
old behavior by creating a lot of individual small mappings instead of
one non-linear one.
The emulation is slower than the old "native" non-linear mappings, but
nobody really uses or cares about remap_file_pages(), and simplifying
the VM is a big advantage.

ACPI EC driver, ACPI processor driver and the generic power domains
core code too.
The most active developer is Viresh Kumar with his cpufreq changes.
Specifics:
- Rework of the core ACPI resources parsing code to fix issues in it
and make using resource offsets more convenient and consolidation
of some resource-handing code in a couple of places that have grown
analagous data structures and code to cover the the same gap in the
core (Jiang Liu, Thomas Gleixner, Lv Zheng).
- ACPI-based IOAPIC hotplug support on top of the resources handling
rework (Jiang Liu, Yinghai Lu).
- ACPICA update to upstream release 20150204 including an interrupt
handling rework that allows drivers to install raw handlers for
ACPI GPEs which then become entirely responsible for the given GPE
and the ACPICA core code won't touch it (Lv Zheng, David E Box,
Octavian Purdila).
- ACPI EC driver rework to fix several concurrency issues and other
problems related to events handling on top of the ACPICA's new
support for raw GPE handlers (Lv Zheng).
- New ACPI driver for AMD SoCs analogous to the LPSS (Low-Power
Subsystem) driver for Intel chips (Ken Xue).
- Two minor fixes of the ACPI LPSS driver (Heikki Krogerus, Jarkko
Nikula).
- Two new blacklist entries for machines (Samsung 730U3E/740U3E and
510R) where the native backlight interface doesn't work correctly
while the ACPI one does (Hans de Goede).
- Rework of the ACPI processor driver's handling of idle states to
make the code more straightforward and less bloated overall (Rafael
J Wysocki).
- Assorted minor fixes related to ACPI and SFI (Andreas Ruprecht,
Andy Shevchenko, Hanjun Guo, Jan Beulich, Rafael J Wysocki, Yaowei
Bai).
- PCI core power management modification to avoid resuming (some)
runtime-suspended devices during system suspend if they are in the
right states already (Rafael J Wysocki).
- New SFI-based cpufreq driver for Intel platforms using SFI
(Srinidhi Kasagar).
- cpufreq core fixes, cleanups and simplifications (Viresh Kumar,
Doug Anderson, Wolfram Sang).
- SkyLake CPU support and other updates for the intel_pstate driver
(Kristen Carlson Accardi, Srinivas Pandruvada).
- cpufreq-dt driver cleanup (Markus Elfring).
- Init fix for the ARM big.LITTLE cpuidle driver (Sudeep Holla).
- Generic power domains core code fixes and cleanups (Ulf Hansson).
- Operating Performance Points (OPP) core code cleanups and kernel
documentation update (Nishanth Menon).
- New dabugfs interface to make the list of PM QoS constraints
available to user space (Nishanth Menon).
- New devfreq driver for Tegra Activity Monitor (Tomeu Vizoso).
- New devfreq class (devfreq_event) to provide raw utilization data
to devfreq governors (Chanwoo Choi).
- Assorted minor fixes and cleanups related to power management
(Andreas Ruprecht, Krzysztof Kozlowski, Rickard Strandqvist, Pavel
Machek, Todd E Brandt, Wonhong Kwon).
- turbostat updates (Len Brown) and cpupower Makefile improvement
(Sriram Raghunathan)"

Commit ed4d4902eb ("mm, hugetlb: remove hugetlb_zero and
hugetlb_infinity") replaced 'unsigned long hugetlb_zero' with 'int zero'
leading to out-of-bounds access in proc_doulongvec_minmax(). Use
'.extra1 = NULL' instead of '.extra1 = &zero'. Passing NULL is
equivalent to passing minimal value, which is 0 for unsigned types.

Commit 6edb2a8a38 introduced
an array map_pages that contains the addresses returned by
kmap_atomic. However, when unmapping those pages, map_pages[0]
is unmapped before map_pages[1], breaking the nesting requirement
as specified in the documentation for kmap_atomic/kunmap_atomic.
This was caught by the highmem debug code present in kunmap_atomic.
Fix the loop to do the unmapping properly.

Currently ACPI, PCI and pnp all implement the same resource list
management with different data structure. We need to transfer from
one data structure into another when passing resources from one
subsystem into another subsystem. So move struct resource_list_entry
from ACPI into resource core and rename it as resource_entry,
then it could be reused by different subystems and avoid the data
structure conversion.
Introduce dedicated header file resource_ext.h instead of embedding
it into ioport.h to avoid header file inclusion order issues.

I noticed some CLOCK_TAI timer test failures on one of my

found in 76f4108892 (Cleanup hrtimer accessors to the
timekepeing state), the hrtimer_get_softirq_time tai offset
calucation was incorrectly rewritten, as the tai offset we
return shold be from CLOCK_MONOTONIC, and not CLOCK_REALTIME.
This results in CLOCK_TAI timers expiring early on non-highres
capable machines.
This patch fixes the issue, calculating the tai time properly
from the monotonic base.

Currently the adjusments made as part of perf_event_task_tick() use the
percpu rotation lists to iterate over any active PMU contexts, but these
are not used by the context rotation code, having been replaced by
separate (per-context) hrtimer callbacks. However, some manipulation of
the rotation lists (i.e. removal of contexts) has remained in
perf_rotate_context(). This leads to the following issues:
* Contexts are not always removed from the rotation lists. Removal of
PMUs which have been placed in rotation lists, but have not been
removed by a hrtimer callback can result in corruption of the rotation
lists (when memory backing the context is freed).
This has been observed to result in hangs when PMU drivers built as
modules are inserted and removed around the creation of events for
said PMUs.
* Contexts which do not require rotation may be removed from the
rotation lists as a result of a hrtimer, and will not be considered by
the unthrottling code in perf_event_task_tick.
This patch fixes the issue by updating the rotation ist when events are
scheduled in/out, ensuring that each rotation list stays in sync with
the HW state. As each event holds a refcount on the module of its PMU,
this ensures that when a PMU module is unloaded none of its CPU contexts
can be in a rotation list. By maintaining a list of perf_event_contexts
rather than perf_event_cpu_contexts, we don't need separate paths to
handle the cpu and task contexts, which also makes the code a little
simpler.
As the rotation_list variables are not used for rotation, these are
renamed to active_ctx_list, which better matches their current function.
perf_pmu_rotate_{start,stop} are renamed to
perf_pmu_ctx_{activate,deactivate}.

When initialising an event, perf_init_event will call try_module_get() to
ensure that the PMU's module cannot be removed for the lifetime of the
event, with __free_event() dropping the reference when the event is
finally destroyed. If something fails after the event has been
initialised, but before the event is installed, perf_event_alloc will
drop the reference on the module.
However, if we fail to initialise an event for some reason (e.g. we ask
an uncore PMU to perform sampling, and it refuses to initialise the
event), we do not drop the refcount. If we try to open such a bogus
event without a precise IDR type, we will loop over each PMU in the pmus
list, incrementing each of their refcounts without decrementing them.
This patch adds a module_put when pmu->event_init(event) fails, ensuring
that the refcounts are balanced in failure cases. As the innards of the
precise and search based initialisation look very similar, this logic is
hoisted out into a new helper function. While the early return for the
failed try_module_get is removed from the search case, this is handled
by the remaining return when ret is not -ENOENT.

So what I suspect; but I'm in zombie mode today it seems; is that while
I initially thought that it was impossible for ctx to change when
refcount dropped to 0, I now suspect its possible.
Note that until perf_remove_from_context() the event is still active and
visible on the lists. So a concurrent sys_perf_event_open() from another
task into this task can race.

I think the below should cure this; if we install a group leader it
will iterate the (still intact) group list and find its siblings and
try and install those too -- even though those still have the old
event->ctx -- in the new ctx.
Upon installing the first group sibling we'd try and schedule out the
group and trigger the above warn.
Fix this by installing the group leader last, installing siblings
would have no effect, they're not reachable through the group lists
and therefore we don't schedule them.
Also delay resetting the state until we're absolutely sure the events
are quiescent.

We explicitly mark the task running after returning from
a __rt_mutex_slowlock() call, which does the actual sleeping
via wait-wake-trylocking. As such, this patch does two things:
(1) refactors the code so that setting current to TASK_RUNNING
is done by __rt_mutex_slowlock(), and not by the callers. The
downside to this is that it becomes a bit unclear when at what
point we block. As such I've added a comment that the task
blocks when calling __rt_mutex_slowlock() so readers can figure
out when it is running again.
(2) relaxes setting current's state through __set_current_state(),
instead of it's more expensive barrier alternative. There was no
need for the implied barrier as we're obviously not planning on
blocking.

__schedule() disables preemption during its job and re-enables it
afterward without doing a preemption check to avoid recursion.
But if an event happens after the context switch which requires
rescheduling, we need to check again if a task of a higher priority
needs the CPU. A preempt irq can raise such a situation. To handle that,
__schedule() loops on need_resched().
But preempt_schedule_*() functions, which call __schedule(), also loop
on need_resched() to handle missed preempt irqs. Hence we end up with
the same loop happening twice.
Lets simplify that by attributing the need_resched() loop responsibility
to all __schedule() callers.
There is a risk that the outer loop now handles reschedules that used
to be handled by the inner loop with the added overhead of caller details
(inc/dec of PREEMPT_ACTIVE, irq save/restore) but assuming those inner
rescheduling loop weren't too frequent, this shouldn't matter. Especially
since the whole preemption path is now losing one loop in any case.

For the rare case when a task is put onto a dying cpu (which

handled through _cpu_down()->...->multi_cpu_stop()->migration_call()

When we fail to start the deadline timer in update_curr_dl(), we
forget to clear ->dl_yielded, resulting in wrecked time keeping.
Since the natural place to clear both ->dl_yielded and ->dl_throttled
is in replenish_dl_entity(); both are after all waiting for that event;
make it so.
Luckily since 67dfa1b756 ("sched/deadline: Implement

task_on_rq_queued() condition in dl_task_timer() must be true, and can
therefore call enqueue_task_dl() unconditionally.

Commit 67dfa1b756 ("sched/deadline: Implement cancel_dl_timer() to
use in switched_from_dl()") removed the hrtimer_try_cancel() function
call out from init_dl_task_timer(), which gets called from
__setparam_dl().
The result is that we can now re-init the timer while its active --
this is bad and corrupts timer state.
Furthermore; changing the parameters of an active deadline task is
tricky in that you want to maintain guarantees, while immediately
effective change would allow one to circumvent the CBS guarantees --
this too is bad, as one (bad) task should not be able to affect the
others.
Rework things to avoid both problems. We only need to initialize the
timer once, so move that to __sched_fork() for new tasks.
Then make sure __setparam_dl() doesn't affect the current running
state but only updates the parameters used to calculate the next
scheduling period -- this guarantees the CBS functions as expected
(albeit slightly pessimistic).
This however means we need to make sure __dl_clear_params() needs to
reset the active state otherwise new (and tasks flipping between
classes) will not properly (re)compute their first instance.
Todo: close class flipping CBS hole.
Todo: implement delayed BW release.

The tracing "instances" directory can create sub tracing buffers
with mkdir, and remove them with rmdir. As a mkdir will also create
all the files and directories that control the sub buffer the inode
mutexes need to be released before this is done, to avoid deadlocks.
It is better to let the tracing system unlock the inode mutexes before
calling the functions that create the files within the new directory
(or deletes the files from the one being destroyed).
Now that tracing has been converted over to tracefs, the tracefs file
system can be modified to accommodate this feature. It still releases
the locks, but the filesystem itself can take care of the ugly
business and let the user just do what it needs.
The tracing system now attaches a descriptor to the directory dentry
that can have userspace create or remove sub directories. If this
descriptor does not exist for a dentry, then that dentry can not be
used to create other directories. This descriptor holds a mkdir and
rmdir method that only takes a character string as an argument.
The tracefs file system will first make a copy of the dentry name
before releasing the locks. Then it will pass the copied name to the
methods. It is up to the tracing system that supplied the methods to
handle races with duplicate names and such as all the inode mutexes
would be released when the functions are called.

As tools currently rely on the tracing directory in debugfs, we can not
just created a tracefs infrastructure and expect sysadmins to mount
the new tracefs to have their old tools work.
Instead, the debugfs tracing directory is still created and the tracefs
file system is mounted there when the debugfs filesystem is mounted.
No longer does the tracing infrastructure update the debugfs file system,
but instead interacts with the tracefs file system. But now, it still
appears to the user like nothing changed, except you also have the feature
of mounting just the tracing system without needing all of debugfs!

debugfs was fine for the tracing facility as a quick way to get
an interface. Now that tracing has matured, it should separate itself
from debugfs such that it can be mounted separately without needing
to mount all of debugfs with it. That is, users resist using tracing
because it requires mounting debugfs. Having tracing have its own file
system lets users get the features of tracing without needing to bring
in the rest of the kernel's debug infrastructure.
Another reason for tracefs is that debubfs does not support mkdir.
Currently, to create instances, one does a mkdir in the tracing/instance
directory. This is implemented via a hack that forces debugfs to do
something it is not intended on doing. By converting over to tracefs, this
hack can be removed and mkdir can be properly implemented. This patch does
not address this yet, but it lays the ground work for that to be done.

Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
Pull in Al Viro's changes to debugfs that implement the new primitive:
debugfs_create_automount(), that creates a directory in debugfs that will
safely mount another file system automatically when debugfs is mounted.
This will let tracefs automount itself on top of debugfs/tracing directory.
The top level trace array is treated a little different than the
instances, as it has to deal with more of the general tracing.
The tr->dir is the tracing directory, which is an immutable
dentry, where as the tr->dir of instances are the dentry that
was created, and can be destroyed later. These should have different
functions accessing them.
As only tracing_init_dentry() deals with the top level array, fold
the code for it into that function, and remove the trace_init_dentry_tr()
that was also used by the instances to get their directory dentry.
Add a tracing_get_dentry() to just get the tracing dir entry for
instances as well as the top level array.

Commit 8eb23b9f35 ("sched: Debug nested sleeps") added code to report
on nested sleep conditions, which we generally want to avoid because the
inner sleeping operation can re-set the thread state to TASK_RUNNING,
but that will then cause the outer sleep loop not actually sleep when it
calls schedule.
However, that's actually valid traditional behavior, with the inner
sleep being some fairly rare case (like taking a sleeping lock that
normally doesn't actually need to sleep).
And the debug code would actually change the state of the task to
TASK_RUNNING internally, which makes that kind of traditional and
working code not work at all, because now the nested sleep doesn't just
sometimes cause the outer one to not block, but will cause it to happen
every time.
In particular, it will cause the cardbus kernel daemon (pccardd) to
basically busy-loop doing scheduling, converting a laptop into a heater,
as reported by Bruno Prémont. But there may be other legacy uses of
that nested sleep model in other drivers that are also likely to never
get converted to the new model.
This fixes both cases:
- don't set TASK_RUNNING when the nested condition happens (note: even
if WARN_ONCE() only _warns_ once, the return value isn't whether the
warning happened, but whether the condition for the warning was true.
So despite the warning only happening once, the "if (WARN_ON(..))"
would trigger for every nested sleep.
- in the cases where we knowingly disable the warning by using
"sched_annotate_sleep()", don't change the task state (that is used
for all core scheduling decisions), instead use '->task_state_change'
that is used for the debugging decision itself.
(Credit for the second part of the fix goes to Oleg Nesterov: "Can't we
avoid this subtle change in behaviour DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP adds?" with the
suggested change to use 'task_state_change' as part of the test)

If an interrupt fires in cond_resched(), between the call to __schedule()
and the PREEMPT_ACTIVE count decrementation, and that interrupt sets
TIF_NEED_RESCHED, the call to preempt_schedule_irq() will be ignored
due to the PREEMPT_ACTIVE count. This kind of scenario, with irq preemption
being delayed because it's interrupting a preempt-disabled area, is
usually fixed up after preemption is re-enabled back with an explicit
call to preempt_schedule().
This is what preempt_enable() does but a raw preempt count decrement as
performed by __preempt_count_sub(PREEMPT_ACTIVE) doesn't handle delayed
preemption check. Therefore when such a race happens, the rescheduling
is going to be delayed until the next scheduler or preemption entrypoint.
This can be a problem for scheduler latency sensitive workloads.
Lets fix that by consolidating cond_resched() with preempt_schedule()
internals.

its start and end times. 'struct timeval' on 32-bit systems
will have its tv_sec value overflow in year 2038 and beyond.
This patch replaces struct timeval with 'ktime_t' which uses
64-bit representation for nanoseconds.

If a trace event contains an array, there is currently no standard
way to format this for text output. Drivers are currently hacking
around this by a) local hacks that use the trace_seq functionailty
directly, or b) just not printing that information. For fixed size
arrays, formatting of the elements can be open-coded, but this gets
cumbersome for arrays of non-trivial size.
These approaches result in non-standard content of the event format
description delivered to userspace, so userland tools needs to be
taught to understand and parse each array printing method
individually.
This patch implements a __print_array() helper that tracepoint
implementations can use instead of reinventing it. A simple C-style
syntax is used to delimit the array and its elements {like,this}.
So that the helpers can be used with large static arrays as well as
dynamic arrays, they take a pointer and element count: they can be
used with __get_dynamic_array() for use with dynamic arrays.

of this is an IST rework. When an IST exception interrupts user
space, we will handle it on the per-thread kernel stack instead of
on the IST stack. This sounds messy, but it actually simplifies the
IST entry/exit code, because it eliminates some ugly games we used
to play in order to handle rescheduling, signal delivery, etc on the
way out of an IST exception.
The IST rework introduces proper context tracking to IST exception
handlers. I haven't seen any bug reports, but the old code could
have incorrectly treated an IST exception handler as an RCU extended
quiescent state.
The memory failure change (included in this pull request with
Borislav and Tony's permission) eliminates a bunch of code that
is no longer needed now that user memory failure handlers are
called in process context.
Finally, this includes a few on Denys' uncontroversial and Obviously

The fix from 9fc81d8742 ("perf: Fix events installation during
moving group") was incomplete in that it failed to recognise that
creating a group with events for different CPUs is semantically
broken -- they cannot be co-scheduled.
Furthermore, it leads to real breakage where, when we create an event
for CPU Y and then migrate it to form a group on CPU X, the code gets
confused where the counter is programmed -- triggered in practice
as well by me via the perf fuzzer.
Fix this by tightening the rules for creating groups. Only allow
grouping of counters that can be co-scheduled in the same context.
This means for the same task and/or the same cpu.

At least some gcc versions - validly afaict - warn about potentially
using max_group uninitialized: There's no way the compiler can prove
that the body of the conditional where it and max_faults get set/
updated gets executed; in fact, without knowing all the details of
other scheduler code, I can't prove this either.
Generally the necessary change would appear to be to clear max_group
prior to entering the inner loop, and break out of the outer loop when
it ends up being all clear after the inner one. This, however, seems
inefficient, and afaict the same effect can be achieved by exiting the
outer loop when max_faults is still zero after the inner loop.
[ mingo: changed the solution to zero initialization: uninitialized_var()
needs to die, as it's an actively dangerous construct: if in the future
a known-proven-good piece of code is changed to have a true, buggy
uninitialized variable, the compiler warning is then supressed...
The better long term solution is to clean up the code flow, so that
even simple minded compilers (and humans!) are able to read it without
getting a headache. ]

Pull cgroup fix from Tejun Heo:
"The lifetime rules of cgroup hierarchies always have been somewhat
counter-intuitive and cgroup core tried to enforce that hierarchies
w/o userland-visible usages must die in finite amount of time so that
the controllers can be reused for other hierarchies; unfortunately,
this can't be implemented reasonably for the memory controller - the
kmemcg part doesn't have any way to forcefully drain the existing
usages, leading to an interruptible hang if a following mount attempts
to use the controller in any way.
So, it seems like we're stuck with "hierarchies live on till they die
whenever that may be" at least for now. This pretty much confines
attaching controllers to hierarchies to before the hierarchies are
actively used by making dynamic configurations post active usages
unreliable. This has never been reliable and should be fine in
practice given how cgroups are used.
After the patch, hierarchies aren't killed if it isn't already
drained. A following mount attempt of the same mount options will
reuse the existing hierarchy. Mount attempts with differing options
will fail w/ -EBUSY"

At least on ARM, do_div() is optimized to turn constant divisors into
an inline multiplication by the reciprocal value at compile time.
However this optimization is missed entirely whenever ktime_divns() is
used and the slow out-of-line division code is used all the time.
Let ktime_divns() use do_div() inline whenever the divisor is constant
and small enough. This will make things like ktime_to_us() and
ktime_to_ms() much faster.

PM QoS requests are notoriously hard to debug and made even
more so due to their highly dynamic nature. Having visibility
into the internal data representation per constraint allows
us to have much better appreciation of potential issues or
bad usage by drivers in the system.
So introduce for all classes of PM QoS, an entry in
/sys/kernel/debug/pm_qos that shall show all the current
requests as well as the snapshot of the value these requests
boil down to. For example:
==> /sys/kernel/debug/pm_qos/cpu_dma_latency <==
1: 4444: Active
2: 2000000000: Default
3: 2000000000: Default
4: 2000000000: Default
Type=Minimum, Value=4444, Requests: active=1 / total=4
==> /sys/kernel/debug/pm_qos/memory_bandwidth <==
Empty!
...
The actual value listed will have their meaning based
on the QoS it is on, the 'Type' indicates what logic
it would use to collate the information - Minimum,
Maximum, or Sum. Value is the collation of all requests.
This interface also compares the values with the defaults
for the QoS class and marks the ones that are
currently active.

hrtimer_interrupt() has the following subtle issue:
hrtimer_interrupt()
lock(cpu_base);
expires_next = KTIME_MAX;
expire_timers(CLOCK_MONOTONIC);
expires = get_next_timer(CLOCK_MONOTONIC);
if (expires < expires_next)
expires_next = expires;
expire_timers(CLOCK_REALTIME);
unlock(cpu_base);
wakeup()
hrtimer_start(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, newtimer);
lock(cpu_base();
expires = get_next_timer(CLOCK_REALTIME);
if (expires < expires_next)
expires_next = expires;
So because we already evaluated the next expiring timer of
CLOCK_MONOTONIC we ignore that the expiry time of newtimer might be
earlier than the overall next expiry time in hrtimer_interrupt().
To solve this, remove the caching of the next expiry value from
hrtimer_interrupt() and reevaluate all active clock bases for the next
expiry value. To avoid another code duplication, create a shared
evaluation function and use it for hrtimer_get_next_event(),
hrtimer_force_reprogram() and hrtimer_interrupt().
There is another subtlety in this mechanism:
While hrtimer_interrupt() is running, we want to avoid to touch the
hardware device because we will reprogram it anyway at the end of
hrtimer_interrupt(). This works nicely for hrtimers which get rearmed
via the HRTIMER_RESTART mechanism, because we drop out when the
callback on that CPU is running. But that fails, if a new timer gets
enqueued like in the example above.
This has another implication: While hrtimer_interrupt() is running we
refuse remote enqueueing of timers - see hrtimer_interrupt() and
hrtimer_check_target().
hrtimer_interrupt() tries to prevent this by setting cpu_base->expires
to KTIME_MAX, but that fails if a new timer gets queued.
Prevent both the hardware access and the remote enqueue
explicitely. We can loosen the restriction on the remote enqueue now
due to reevaluation of the next expiry value, but that needs a
seperate patch.

Problem:
The default behavior of the kernel is somewhat undesirable as all
requested interrupts end up on CPU0 after registration. A user can
run irqbalance daemon, or can manually configure smp_affinity via the
proc filesystem, but the default affinity of the interrupts for all
devices is always CPU zero, this can cause performance problems or
very heavy cpu use of only one core if not noticed and fixed by the
user.
Solution:
Enable the setting of the initial affinity directly when the driver
sets a hint.
This enabling means that kernel drivers can include an initial
affinity setting for the interrupt, instead of all interrupts starting
out life on CPU0. Of course if irqbalance is still running then the
interrupts will get moved as before.
This function is currently called by drivers in block, crypto,
infiniband, ethernet and scsi trees, but only a handful, so these will
be the devices affected by this change.
Tested on i40e, and default interrupts were spread across the CPUs
according to the hint.

The following race exists in the smpboot percpu threads management:
CPU0 CPU1
cpu_up(2)
get_online_cpus();
smpboot_create_threads(2);
smpboot_register_percpu_thread();
for_each_online_cpu();
__smpboot_create_thread();
__cpu_up(2);
This results in a missing per cpu thread for the newly onlined cpu2 and
in a NULL pointer dereference on a consecutive offline of that cpu.
Proctect smpboot_register_percpu_thread() with get_online_cpus() to
prevent that.
[ tglx: Massaged changelog and removed the change in
smpboot_unregister_percpu_thread() because that's an
optimization and therefor not stable material. ]

In order to ensure that filenames are not released before the audit
subsystem is done with the strings there are a number of hacks built
into the fs and audit subsystems around getname() and putname(). To
say these hacks are "ugly" would be kind.
This patch removes the filename hackery in favor of a more
conventional reference count based approach. The diffstat below tells
most of the story; lots of audit/fs specific code is replaced with a
traditional reference count based approach that is easily understood,
even by those not familiar with the audit and/or fs subsystems.

In all likelihood there were some subtle, and perhaps not so subtle,
bugs with filename matching in audit_inode() and audit_inode_child()
for some time, however, recent changes to the audit filename code have
definitely broken the filename matching code. The breakage could
result in duplicate filenames in the audit log and other odd audit
record entries. This patch fixes the filename matching code and
restores some sanity to the filename audit records.

Enable recording of filenames in getname_kernel() and remove the
kludgy workaround in __audit_inode() now that we have proper filename
logging for kernel users.

Description from Michael Kerrisk. He suggested an identical patch
to one I had already coded up and tested.
commit fe3d197f84 "x86, mpx: On-demand kernel allocation of bounds
tables" added two new prctl() operations, PR_MPX_ENABLE_MANAGEMENT and
PR_MPX_DISABLE_MANAGEMENT. However, no checks were included to ensure
that unused arguments are zero, as is done in many existing prctl()s
and as should be done for all new prctl()s. This patch adds the
required checks.

First two are minor fallout from the param rework which went in this merge
window.
Next three are a series which fixes a longstanding (but never previously
reported and unlikely , so no CC stable) race between kallsyms and freeing
the init section.
Finally, a minor cleanup as our module refcount will now be -1 during
unload.
Thanks,
Rusty.

Pull module and param fixes from Rusty Russell:
"Surprising number of fixes this merge window :(
The first two are minor fallout from the param rework which went in
this merge window.
The next three are a series which fixes a longstanding (but never
previously reported and unlikely , so no CC stable) race between
kallsyms and freeing the init section.
Finally, a minor cleanup as our module refcount will now be -1 during

* tag 'fixes-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rusty/linux:
module: make module_refcount() a signed integer.
module: fix race in kallsyms resolution during module load success.
module: remove mod arg from module_free, rename module_memfree().
module_arch_freeing_init(): new hook for archs before module->module_init freed.
param: fix uninitialized read with CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC
param: initialize store function to NULL if not available.
tracing_init_dentry() will soon return NULL as a valid pointer for the
top level tracing directroy. NULL can not be used as an error value.
Instead, switch to ERR_PTR() and check the return status with
IS_ERR().

The creation of tracing files and directories is for the most part
encapsulated in helper functions in trace.c. Other files do not need to
include debugfs.h or fs.h, as they may have needed to in the past.
Remove them from the files that do not need them.

Since b2052564e6 ("mm: memcontrol: continue cache reclaim from
offlined groups"), re-mounting the memory controller after using it is
very likely to hang.
The cgroup core assumes that any remaining references after deleting a
cgroup are temporary in nature, and synchroneously waits for them, but
the above-mentioned commit has left-over page cache pin its css until
it is reclaimed naturally. That being said, swap entries and charged
kernel memory have been doing the same indefinite pinning forever, the
bug is just more likely to trigger with left-over page cache.
Reparenting kernel memory is highly impractical, which leaves changing
the cgroup assumptions to reflect this: once a controller has been
mounted and used, it has internal state that is independent from mount
and cgroup lifetime. It can be unmounted and remounted, but it can't
be reconfigured during subsequent mounts.
Don't offline the controller root as long as there are any children,
dead or alive. A remount will no longer wait for these old references
to drain, it will simply mount the persistent controller state again.
