mutex: Add w/w mutex slowpath debugging
Injects EDEADLK conditions at pseudo-random interval, with exponential backoff up to UINT_MAX (to ensure that every lock operation still completes in a reasonable time). This way we can test the wound slowpath even for ww mutex users where contention is never expected, and the ww deadlock avoidance algorithm is only needed for correctness against malicious userspace. An example would be protecting kernel modesetting properties, which thanks to single-threaded X isn't really expected to contend, ever. I've looked into using the CONFIG_FAULT_INJECTION infrastructure, but decided against it for two reasons: - EDEADLK handling is mandatory for ww mutex users and should never affect the outcome of a syscall. This is in contrast to -ENOMEM injection. So fine configurability isn't required. - The fault injection framework only allows to set a simple probability for failure. Now the probability that a ww mutex acquire stage with N locks will never complete (due to too many injected EDEADLK backoffs) is zero. But the expected number of ww_mutex_lock operations for the completely uncontended case would be O(exp(N)). The per-acuiqire ctx exponential backoff solution choosen here only results in O(log N) overhead due to injection and so O(log N * N) lock operations. This way we can fail with high probability (and so have good test coverage even for fancy backoff and lock acquisition paths) without running into patalogical cases. Note that EDEADLK will only ever be injected when we managed to acquire the lock. This prevents any behaviour changes for users which rely on the EALREADY semantics.

mutex: Add support for wound/wait style locks
Wound/wait mutexes are used when other multiple lock acquisitions of a similar type can be done in an arbitrary order. The deadlock handling used here is called wait/wound in the RDBMS literature: The older tasks waits until it can acquire the contended lock. The younger tasks needs to back off and drop all the locks it is currently holding, i.e. the younger task is wounded. For full documentation please read Documentation/ww-mutex-design.txt.

arch: Make __mutex_fastpath_lock_retval return whether fastpath succeeded or not
This will allow me to call functions that have multiple arguments if fastpath fails. This is required to support ticket mutexes, because they need to be able to pass an extra argument to the fail function. Originally I duplicated the functions, by adding __mutex_fastpath_lock_retval_arg. This ended up being just a duplication of the existing function, so a way to test if fastpath was called ended up being better. This also cleaned up the reservation mutex patch some by being able to call an atomic_set instead of atomic_xchg, and making it easier to detect if the wrong unlock function was previously used.

Because the function tracer does a preempt_disable/enable_notrace() calls the preempt_enable_notrace() checks the NEED_RESCHED flag. If it is set, then preempt_schedule() is called. But this is called before the user_exit() function can inform the kernel that the CPU is no longer in user mode and needs to be accounted for by RCU. The fix is to create a new preempt_schedule_context() that checks if the kernel is still in user mode and if so to switch it to kernel mode before calling schedule. It also switches back to user mode coming back from schedule in need be. The only user of this currently is the preempt_enable_notrace(), which is only used by the tracing subsystem.

sched: Fix clear NOHZ_BALANCE_KICK
I have faced a sequence where the Idle Load Balance was sometime not triggered for a while on my platform, in the following scenario: CPU 0 and CPU 1 are running tasks and CPU 2 is idle CPU 1 kicks the Idle Load Balance CPU 1 selects CPU 2 as the new Idle Load Balancer CPU 2 sets NOHZ_BALANCE_KICK for CPU 2 CPU 2 sends a reschedule IPI to CPU 2 While CPU 3 wakes up, CPU 0 or CPU 1 migrates a waking up task A on CPU 2 CPU 2 finally wakes up, runs task A and discards the Idle Load Balance task A quickly goes back to sleep (before a tick occurs on CPU 2) CPU 2 goes back to idle with NOHZ_BALANCE_KICK set Whenever CPU 2 will be selected as the ILB, no reschedule IPI will be sent because NOHZ_BALANCE_KICK is already set and no Idle Load Balance will be performed. We must wait for the sched softirq to be raised on CPU 2 thanks to another part the kernel to come back to clear NOHZ_BALANCE_KICK. The proposed solution clears NOHZ_BALANCE_KICK in schedule_ipi if we can't raise the sched_softirq for the Idle Load Balance. Change since V1: - move the clear of NOHZ_BALANCE_KICK in got_nohz_idle_kick if the ILB can't run on this CPU (as suggested by Peter) Signed-off-by: Vincent Guittot <vincent.guittot@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1370419991-13870-1-git-send-email-vincent.guittot@linaro.org Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> |

perf: Fix mmap() accounting hole
Vince's fuzzer once again found holes. This time it spotted a leak in the locked page accounting. When an event had redirected output and its close() was the last reference to the buffer we didn't have a vm context to undo accounting. Change the code to destroy the buffer on the last munmap() and detach all redirected events at that time. This provides us the right context to undo the vm accounting.

idle: Enable interrupts in the weak arch_cpu_idle() implementation
PARISC bootup triggers the warning at kernel/cpu/idle.c:96. That's caused by the weak arch_cpu_idle() implementation, which is provided to avoid that architectures implement idle_poll over and over. The switchover to polling mode happens in the first call of the weak arch_cpu_idle() implementation, but that code fails to reenable interrupts and therefor triggers the warning.

Merge branch 'rcu/urgent' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu
Pull RCU fixes from Paul McKenney: "I must confess that this past merge window was not RCU's best showing. This series contains three more fixes for RCU regressions: 1. A fix to __DECLARE_TRACE_RCU() that causes it to act as an interrupt from idle rather than as a task switch from idle. This change is needed due to the recent use of _rcuidle() tracepoints that can be invoked from interrupt handlers as well as from idle. Without this fix, invoking _rcuidle() tracepoints from interrupt handlers results in splats and (more seriously) confusion on RCU's part as to whether a given CPU is idle or not. This confusion can in turn result in too-short grace periods and therefore random memory corruption. 2. A fix to a subtle deadlock that could result due to RCU doing a wakeup while holding one of its rcu_node structure's locks. Although the probability of occurrence is low, it really does happen. The fix, courtesy of Steven Rostedt, uses irq_work_queue() to avoid the deadlock. 3. A fix to a silent deadlock (invisible to lockdep) due to the interaction of timeouts posted by RCU debug code enabled by CONFIG_PROVE_RCU_DELAY=y, grace-period initialization, and CPU hotplug operations. This will not occur in production kernels, but really does occur in randconfig testing.

kmsg: honor dmesg_restrict sysctl on /dev/kmsg
The dmesg_restrict sysctl currently covers the syslog method for access dmesg, however /dev/kmsg isn't covered by the same protections. Most people haven't noticed because util-linux dmesg(1) defaults to using the syslog method for access in older versions. With util-linux dmesg(1) defaults to reading directly from /dev/kmsg. To fix /dev/kmsg, let's compare the existing interfaces and what they allow: - /proc/kmsg allows: - open (SYSLOG_ACTION_OPEN) if CAP_SYSLOG since it uses a destructive single-reader interface (SYSLOG_ACTION_READ). - everything, after an open. - syslog syscall allows: - anything, if CAP_SYSLOG. - SYSLOG_ACTION_READ_ALL and SYSLOG_ACTION_SIZE_BUFFER, if dmesg_restrict==0. - nothing else (EPERM). The use-cases were: - dmesg(1) needs to do non-destructive SYSLOG_ACTION_READ_ALLs. - sysklog(1) needs to open /proc/kmsg, drop privs, and still issue the destructive SYSLOG_ACTION_READs. AIUI, dmesg(1) is moving to /dev/kmsg, and systemd-journald doesn't clear the ring buffer. Based on the comments in devkmsg_llseek, it sounds like actions besides reading aren't going to be supported by /dev/kmsg (i.e. SYSLOG_ACTION_CLEAR), so we have a strict subset of the non-destructive syslog syscall actions. To this end, move the check as Josh had done, but also rename the constants to reflect their new uses (SYSLOG_FROM_CALL becomes SYSLOG_FROM_READER, and SYSLOG_FROM_FILE becomes SYSLOG_FROM_PROC). SYSLOG_FROM_READER allows non-destructive actions, and SYSLOG_FROM_PROC allows destructive actions after a capabilities-constrained SYSLOG_ACTION_OPEN check. - /dev/kmsg allows: - open if CAP_SYSLOG or dmesg_restrict==0 - reading/polling, after open Addresses https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=903192 [akpm@linux-foundation.org: use pr_warn_once()] Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Reported-by: Christian Kujau <lists@nerdbynature.de> Tested-by: Josh Boyer <jwboyer@redhat.com> Cc: Kay Sievers <kay@vrfy.org> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> |

Fix lockup related to stop_machine being stuck in __do_softirq.
The stop machine logic can lock up if all but one of the migration
threads make it through the disable-irq step and the one remaining
thread gets stuck in __do_softirq. The reason __do_softirq can hang is
that it has a bail-out based on jiffies timeout, but in the lockup case,
jiffies itself is not incremented.
To work around this, re-add the max_restart counter in __do_irq and stop
processing irqs after 10 restarts.
Thanks to Tejun Heo and Rusty Russell and others for helping me track
this down.

rcu: Fix deadlock with CPU hotplug, RCU GP init, and timer migration
In Steven Rostedt's words: > I've been debugging the last couple of days why my tests have been > locking up. One of my tracing tests, runs all available tracers. The > lockup always happened with the mmiotrace, which is used to trace > interactions between priority drivers and the kernel. But to do this > easily, when the tracer gets registered, it disables all but the boot > CPUs. The lockup always happened after it got done disabling the CPUs. > > Then I decided to try this: > > while :; do > for i in 1 2 3; do > echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu$i/online > done > for i in 1 2 3; do > echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu$i/online > done > done > > Well, sure enough, that locked up too, with the same users.

Here's our deadlock! This commit breaks this deadlock cycle by substituting a shorter udelay() for the previous schedule_timeout_uninterruptible(), while at the same time increasing the probability of the delay. This maintains the intensity of the testing. Reported-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

rcu: Don't call wakeup() with rcu_node structure ->lock held
This commit fixes a lockdep-detected deadlock by moving a wake_up() call out from a rnp->lock critical section. Please see below for the long version of this story.

Then it calls rcu_start_gp_advance, which does a wakeup. You can't do wakeups while holding the rnp->lock, as that would mean that you could not do a rcu_read_unlock() while holding the rq lock, or any lock that was taken while holding the rq lock.

While holding this lock, it did a rcu_read_unlock(). The perf_lock_task_context() basically looks like: rcu_read_lock(); raw_spin_lock(ctx->lock); rcu_read_unlock(); Now, what looks to have happened, is that we scheduled after taking that first rcu_read_lock() but before taking the spin lock. When we scheduled back in and took the ctx->lock, the following rcu_read_unlock() triggered the "special" code. The rcu_read_unlock_special() takes the rnp->lock, which gives us a possible deadlock scenario.

This contains 4 fixes.
The first two fix the case where full RCU debugging is enabled, enabling function tracing causes a live lock of the system. This is due to the added debug checks in rcu_dereference_raw() that is used by the function tracer. These checks are also traced by the function tracer as well as cause enough overhead to the function tracer to slow down the system enough that the time to finish an interrupt can take longer than when the next interrupt is triggered, causing a live lock from the timer interrupt. Talking this over with Paul McKenney, we came up with a fix that adds a new rcu_dereference_raw_notrace() that does not perform these added checks, and let the function tracer use that. The third commit fixes a failed compile when branch tracing is enabled, due to the conversion of the trace_test_buffer() selftest that the branch trace wasn't converted for. The forth patch fixes a bug caught by the RCU lockdep code where a rcu_read_lock() is performed when rcu is disabled (either going to or from idle, or user space). This happened on the irqsoff tracer as it calls task_uid(). The fix here was to use current_uid() when possible that doesn't use rcu locking. Which luckily, is always used when irqsoff calls this code. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) iQEcBAABAgAGBQJRsQZhAAoJEOdOSU1xswtMquIH/0zyrqrLTnkc5MsNnnJ8kH5R z1cULts4FqBTUNZ1hdb3BTOu4zywjREIkWfM9qqpBmq9Mq6PBxX7gxWTqYvD4jiX EatiiCKa7Fyddx4iHJNfvtWgKVYt9WKSNeloRugS9h7NxIZ1wpz21DUpENFQzW2f jWRnq/AKXFmZ0vn1953mPePtRsg61RYpb7DCkTE1gtUnvL43wMd/Mo6p6BLMEG26 1dDK6EWO/uewl8A4oP5JZYP+AP5Ckd4x1PuQK682AtQw+8S6etaGfeJr0WZmKQoD 0aDZ/NXXSNKChlUFGJusBNJCWryONToa+sdiKuk1h/lW/k9Mail/FChiHBzMiwk= =uvlD -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'trace-fixes-v3.10-rc3-v3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt: "This contains 4 fixes.

tracing: Use current_uid() for critical time tracing
The irqsoff tracer records the max time that interrupts are disabled. There are hooks in the assembly code that calls back into the tracer when interrupts are disabled or enabled. When they are enabled, the tracer checks if the amount of time they were disabled is larger than the previous recorded max interrupts off time. If it is, it creates a snapshot of the currently running trace to store where the last largest interrupts off time was held and how it happened. During testing, this RCU lockdep dump appeared: [ 1257.829021] =============================== [ 1257.829021] [ INFO: suspicious RCU usage. ] [ 1257.829021] 3.10.0-rc1-test+ #171 Tainted: G W [ 1257.829021] ------------------------------- [ 1257.829021] /home/rostedt/work/git/linux-trace.git/include/linux/rcupdate.h:780 rcu_read_lock() used illegally while idle!

The trace buffer was saved along with various information about the task: comm, pid, uid, priority, etc. The uid is recorded with task_uid(tsk). But this is a macro that uses rcu_read_lock() to retrieve the data, and this happened to happen where RCU is blind (user_enter). As only the preempt and irqs off tracers can have this happen, and they both only have the tsk == current, if tsk == current, use current_uid() instead of task_uid(), as current_uid() does not use RCU as only current can change its uid. This fixes the RCU suspicious splat. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> |

nohz: Fix notifier return val that enforce timekeeping
In tick_nohz_cpu_down_callback() if the cpu is the one handling timekeeping, we must return something that stops the CPU_DOWN_PREPARE notifiers and then start notify CPU_DOWN_FAILED on the already called notifier call backs. However traditional errno values are not handled by the notifier unless these are encapsulated using errno_to_notifier(). Hence the current -EINVAL is misinterpreted and converted to junk after notifier_to_errno(), leaving the notifier subsystem to random behaviour such as eventually allowing the cpu to go down. Fix this by using the standard NOTIFY_BAD instead. Signed-off-by: Li Zhong <zhong@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: Srivatsa S.

kvm: Move guest entry/exit APIs to context_tracking
The kvm_host.h header file doesn't handle well inclusion when archs don't support KVM. This results in build crashes for such archs when they want to implement context tracking because this subsystem includes kvm_host.h in order to implement the guest_enter/exit APIs but it doesn't handle KVM off case. To fix this, move the guest_enter()/guest_exit() declarations and generic implementation to the context tracking headers. These generic APIs actually belong to this subsystem, besides other domains boundary tracking like user_enter() et al. KVM now properly becomes a user of this library, not the other buggy way around.

vtime: Use consistent clocks among nohz accounting
While computing the cputime delta of dynticks CPUs, we are mixing up clocks of differents natures: * local_clock() which takes care of unstable clock sources and fix these if needed. * sched_clock() which is the weaker version of local_clock(). It doesn't compute any fixup in case of unstable source. If the clock source is stable, those two clocks are the same and we can safely compute the difference against two random points. Otherwise it results in random deltas as sched_clock() can randomly drift away, back or forward, from local_clock(). As a consequence, some strange behaviour with unstable tsc has been observed such as non progressing constant zero cputime. (The 'top' command showing no load). Fix this by only using local_clock(), or its irq safe/remote equivalent, in vtime code.

ftrace: Use the rcu _notrace variants for rcu_dereference_raw() and friends
As rcu_dereference_raw() under RCU debug config options can add quite a bit of checks, and that tracing uses rcu_dereference_raw(), these checks happen with the function tracer. The function tracer also happens to trace these debug checks too. This added overhead can livelock the system. Have the function tracer use the new RCU _notrace equivalents that do not do the debug checks for RCU. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20130528184209.467603904@goodmis.org Acked-by: Paul E.

cgroup: warn about mismatching options of a new mount of an existing hierarchy
With the new __DEVEL__sane_behavior mount option was introduced, if the root cgroup is alive with no xattr function, to mount a new cgroup with xattr will be rejected in terms of design which just fine. However, if the root cgroup does not mounted with __DEVEL__sane_hehavior, to create a new cgroup with xattr option will succeed although after that the EA function does not works as expected but will get ENOTSUPP for setting up attributes under either cgroup. e.g. setfattr: /cgroup2/test: Operation not supported Instead of keeping silence in this case, it's better to drop a log entry in warning level. That would be helpful to understand the reason behind the scene from the user's perspective, and this is essentially an improvement does not break the backward compatibilities. With this fix, above mount attemption will keep up works as usual but the following line cound be found at the system log: [ ...] cgroup: new mount options do not match the existing superblock tj: minor formatting / message updates.

Two more fixes:
The first one was reported by Mauro Carvalho Chehab, where if a poll() is done against a trace buffer for a CPU that has never been online, it will crash the kernel, as buffers are only created when a CPU comes on line, but the trace files are for all possible CPUs. This fix is to check if the buffer was allocated and if not return -EINVAL. That was the simple fix, the real fix is a bit more complex and not for a -rc release. We could have the files created when the CPUs come online. That would require some design changes. The second one was reported by Peter Zijlstra. If the kernel command line has ftrace=nop, it will lock up the system on boot up. This is because the new design for 3.10 has the nop tracer bootstrap the tracing subsystem. When ftrace=<trace> is defined, when a that tracer is registered, it starts the tracing, but uses the nop tracer to clear things out. What happened here was that ftrace=nop caused the registering of nop to start it and use nop before it was initialized. The only thing nop needs to have done to initialize it is to have the tracer point its current_tracer structure member to the nop tracer. Doing that before registering the nop tracer makes everything work. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) iQEcBAABAgAGBQJRpMkPAAoJEOdOSU1xswtMxeEIALWCnqSCKZJ0Oz+2TuR15vd2 Szm/knRBktRG2FizN8FIouXXMLIYM5HFSvO3Q2bWuV4Dv5KaqNcCEL5BggZC/+Rj swt5+rMiUuln0teq792h2LhKwORw0YicLzWsyIZ82iSpcFKAseXqcMzEe/P/Emat +J1QaoeDtOx/3X5Sv6tqHomqR80u7phQJwmIK6Yik389yLo3sy2XiPRk9PJqDpac V9xbCnZlnopm7rLo7pEAI3R6Vn+MX6lrY1MO0xxjqeIvhvxr9nk0WIRnaevyARbt eHnCtfa9pjn+bU9xYaFmyIkilc/IEBFRLb0dtEueH81nmaFDXpHI+h/pEFrDJqE= =PR0j -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'trace-fixes-v3.10-rc3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt: "Two more fixes: The first one was reported by Mauro Carvalho Chehab, where if a poll() is done against a trace buffer for a CPU that has never been online, it will crash the kernel, as buffers are only created when a CPU comes on line, but the trace files are for all possible CPUs.

perf: Fix perf mmap bugs
Vince reported a problem found by his perf specific trinity fuzzer. Al noticed 2 problems with perf's mmap(): - it has issues against fork() since we use vma->vm_mm for accounting. - it has an rb refcount leak on double mmap(). We fix the issues against fork() by using VM_DONTCOPY; I don't think there's code out there that uses this; we didn't hear about weird accounting problems/crashes. If we do need this to work, the previously proposed VM_PINNED could make this work. Aside from the rb reference leak spotted by Al, Vince's example prog was indeed doing a double mmap() through the use of perf_event_set_output(). This exposes another problem, since we now have 2 events with one buffer, the accounting gets screwy because we account per event. Fix this by making the buffer responsible for its own accounting.
