Although the name rcu_process_callbacks() still makes sense for Tiny
RCU, where most of what it does is invoke callbacks, it no longer makes
much sense for Tree RCU, especially given that the actually callback
invocation is relegated to rcu_do_batch(), or, for no-CBs CPUs, to the
rcuo kthreads. Especially in the latter case, rcu_process_callbacks()
has very little to do with actual callbacks. A better description of
this function is that it performs RCU's core processing.
This commit therefore changes the name of Tree RCU's rcu_process_callbacks()
function to rcu_core(), which also has the virtue of being consistent with
the existing invoke_rcu_core() function.
While in the area, the header comment is reworked.

The name rcu_check_callbacks() arguably made sense back in the early
2000s when RCU was quite a bit simpler than it is today, but it has
become quite misleading, especially with the advent of dyntick-idle
and NO_HZ_FULL. The rcu_check_callbacks() function is RCU's hook into
the scheduling-clock interrupt, and is now but one of many ways that
callbacks get promoted to invocable state.
This commit therefore changes the name to rcu_sched_clock_irq(),
which is the same number of characters and clearly indicates this
function's relation to the rest of the Linux kernel. In addition, for
the sake of consistency, rcu_flavor_check_callbacks() is also renamed
to rcu_flavor_sched_clock_irq().
While in the area, the header comments for both functions are reworked.

Currently, __note_gp_changes() checks to see if the rcu_node structure's
->gp_seq_needed is greater than or equal to that of the rcu_data
structure, and if so, updates the rcu_data structure's ->gp_seq_needed
field. This results in a useless store in the case where the two fields
are equal.
This commit therefore carries out this store only in the case where the
rcu_node structure's ->gp_seq_needed is strictly greater than that of
the rcu_data structure.

The rcu_gp_kthread_wake() function is invoked when it might be necessary
to wake the RCU grace-period kthread. Because self-wakeups are normally
a useless waste of CPU cycles, if rcu_gp_kthread_wake() is invoked from
this kthread, it naturally refuses to do the wakeup.
Unfortunately, natural though it might be, this heuristic fails when
rcu_gp_kthread_wake() is invoked from an interrupt or softirq handler
that interrupted the grace-period kthread just after the final check of
the wait-event condition but just before the schedule() call. In this
case, a wakeup is required, even though the call to rcu_gp_kthread_wake()
is within the RCU grace-period kthread's context. Failing to provide
this wakeup can result in grace periods failing to start, which in turn
results in out-of-memory conditions.
This race window is quite narrow, but it actually did happen during real
testing. It would of course need to be fixed even if it was strictly
theoretical in nature.
This patch does not Cc stable because it does not apply cleanly to
earlier kernel versions.

If a grace period fails to start (for example, because you commented
out the last two lines of rcu_accelerate_cbs_unlocked()), rcu_core()
will invoke rcu_check_gp_start_stall(), which will notice and complain.
However, this complaint is lacking crucial debugging information such
as when the last wakeup executed and what the value of ->gp_seq was at
that time. This commit therefore removes the current pr_alert() from
rcu_check_gp_start_stall(), instead invoking show_rcu_gp_kthreads(),

It is perfectly fine to set the rcutree.jiffies_till_first_fqs boot
parameter to zero, in fact, this can be useful on specialty systems that
usually have at least one idle CPU and that need fast grace periods.
This is because this setting causes the RCU grace-period kthread to
scan for idle threads immediately after grace-period initialization,
as opposed to waiting several jiffies to do so.
It is also perfectly fine to set the rcutree.rcu_kick_kthreads kernel
parameter, which gives the RCU grace-period kthread an extra wakeup
if it doesn't make progress for a period of three times the setting of
the rcutree.jiffies_till_first_fqs boot parameter. This is of course
problematic when the value of this parameter is zero, as it can result
in unnecessary wakeup IPIs along with unnecessary WARN_ONCE() invocations.
This commit therefore defers kthread kicking for at least two jiffies,
regardless of the setting of rcutree.jiffies_till_first_fqs.

Back when there were multiple flavors of RCU, it was necessary to
separately count lazy and non-lazy callbacks for each CPU. These counts
were used in CONFIG_RCU_FAST_NO_HZ kernels to determine how long a newly
idle CPU should be allowed to sleep before handling its RCU callbacks.
But now that there is only one flavor, the callback counts for a given
CPU's sole rcu_data structure are the counts for that CPU.
This commit therefore removes the rcu_data structure's ->nonlazy_posted
and ->nonlazy_posted_snap fields, the rcu_idle_count_callbacks_posted()
and rcu_cpu_has_callbacks() functions, repurposes the rcu_data structure's
->all_lazy field to record the laziness state at the beginning of the
latest idle sojourn, and modifies CONFIG_RCU_FAST_NO_HZ RCU CPU stall
warnings accordingly.

Back when there could be multiple RCU flavors running in the same kernel

During expedited RCU grace-period initialization, IPIs are sent to
all non-idle online CPUs. The IPI handler checks to see if the CPU is
in quiescent state, reporting one if so. This handler looks at three
different cases: (1) The CPU is not in an rcu_read_lock()-based critical
section, (2) The CPU is in the process of exiting an rcu_read_lock()-based
critical section, and (3) The CPU is in an rcu_read_lock()-based critical
section. In case (2), execution falls through into case (3).
This is harmless from a functionality viewpoint, but can result in

UNAME26 is a mechanism to report Linux's version as 2.6.x, for
compatibility with old/broken software. Due to the way it is
implemented, it would have to be updated after 5.0, to keep the
resulting versions unique. Linus Torvalds argued:
"Do we actually need this?
I'd rather let it bitrot, and just let it return random versions. It
will just start again at 2.4.60, won't it?
Anybody who uses UNAME26 for a 5.x kernel might as well think it's
still 4.x. The user space is so old that it can't possibly care about
differences between 4.x and 5.x, can it?
The only thing that matters is that it shows "2.4.<largeenough>",
which it will do regardless"

A UMH process which is created by the fork_usermode_blob() such as
bpfilter needs to release members of the umh_info when process is
terminated.
But the do_exit() does not release members of the umh_info. hence module
which uses UMH needs own code to detect whether UMH process is
terminated or not.
But this implementation needs extra code for checking the status of
UMH process. it eventually makes the code more complex.
The new PF_UMH flag is added and it is used to identify UMH processes.
The exit_umh() does not release members of the umh_info.
Hence umh_info->cleanup callback should release both members of the
umh_info and the private data.

Commit 9d5f9f701b ("bpf: btf: fix struct/union/fwd types

in the btf_member to directly pretty print member values.
The commit contained a bug where the incorrect parameters could be
passed to function btf_bitfield_seq_show(). The bits_offset
parameter in the function expects a value less than 8.
Instead, the member offset in the structure is passed.
The below is btf_bitfield_seq_show() func signature:
void btf_bitfield_seq_show(void *data, u8 bits_offset,
u8 nr_bits, struct seq_file *m)
both bits_offset and nr_bits are u8 type. If the bitfield
member offset is greater than 256, incorrect value will
be printed.
This patch fixed the issue by calculating correct proper
data offset and bits_offset similar to non kind_flag case.

This changes the fork(2) syscall to record the process start_time after
initializing the basic task structure but still before making the new
process visible to user-space.
Technically, we could record the start_time anytime during fork(2). But
this might lead to scenarios where a start_time is recorded long before
a process becomes visible to user-space. For instance, with
userfaultfd(2) and TLS, user-space can delay the execution of fork(2)
for an indefinite amount of time (and will, if this causes network
access, or similar).
By recording the start_time late, it much closer reflects the point in
time where the process becomes live and can be observed by other
processes.
Lastly, this makes it much harder for user-space to predict and control
the start_time they get assigned. Previously, user-space could fork a
process and stall it in copy_thread_tls() before its pid is allocated,
but after its start_time is recorded. This can be misused to later-on
cycle through PIDs and resume the stalled fork(2) yielding a process
that has the same pid and start_time as a process that existed before.
This can be used to circumvent security systems that identify processes
by their pid+start_time combination.
Even though user-space was always aware that start_time recording is
flaky (but several projects are known to still rely on start_time-based
identification), changing the start_time to be recorded late will help
mitigate existing attacks and make it much harder for user-space to
control the start_time a process gets assigned.

While 979d63d50c ("bpf: prevent out of bounds speculation on pointer
arithmetic") took care of rejecting alu op on pointer when e.g. pointer
came from two different map values with different map properties such as
value size, Jann reported that a case was not covered yet when a given
alu op is used in both "ptr_reg += reg" and "numeric_reg += reg" from
different branches where we would incorrectly try to sanitize based
on the pointer's limit. Catch this corner case and reject the program
instead.

filechk_* rules often consist of multiple 'echo' lines. They must be
surrounded with { } or ( ) to work correctly. Otherwise, only the
string from the last 'echo' would be written into the target.
Let's take care of that in the 'filechk' in scripts/Kbuild.include
to clean up filechk_* rules.

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

We need to return a dma_addr_t even if we don't have a kernel mapping.
Do so by consolidating the phys_to_dma call in a single place and jump
to it from all the branches that return successfully.

Since __sanitizer_cov_trace_const_cmp4 is marked as notrace, the
function called from __sanitizer_cov_trace_const_cmp4 shouldn't be
traceable either. ftrace_graph_caller() gets called every time func
write_comp_data() gets called if it isn't marked 'notrace'. This is the
backtrace from gdb:
#0 ftrace_graph_caller () at ../arch/arm64/kernel/entry-ftrace.S:179
#1 0xffffff8010201920 in ftrace_caller () at ../arch/arm64/kernel/entry-ftrace.S:151

#5 0xffffff801020194c in ftrace_graph_caller () at ../arch/arm64/kernel/entry-ftrace.S:182
Rework so that write_comp_data() that are called from
__sanitizer_cov_trace_*_cmp*() are marked as 'notrace'.
Commit 903e8ff867 ("kernel/kcov.c: mark funcs in __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc() as notrace")
missed to mark write_comp_data() as 'notrace'. When that patch was
created gcc-7 was used. In lib/Kconfig.debug
config KCOV_ENABLE_COMPARISONS
depends on $(cc-option,-fsanitize-coverage=trace-cmp)
That code path isn't hit with gcc-7. However, it were that with gcc-8.
