Pull timer fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"This update from the timer departement contains:
- A series of patches which address a shortcoming in the tick
broadcast code.
If the broadcast device is not available or an hrtimer emulated
broadcast device, some of the original assumptions lead to boot
failures. I rather plugged all of the corner cases instead of only
addressing the issue reported, so the change got a little larger.
Has been extensivly tested on x86 and arm.
- Get rid of the last holdouts using do_posix_clock_monotonic_gettime()
- A regression fix for the imx clocksource driver
- An update to the new state callbacks mechanism for clockevents.
This is required to simplify the conversion, which will take place
in 4.3"

Today proc and sysfs do not contain any executable files. Several
applications today mount proc or sysfs without noexec and nosuid and
then depend on there being no exectuables files on proc or sysfs.
Having any executable files show on proc or sysfs would cause
a user space visible regression, and most likely security problems.
Therefore commit to never allowing executables on proc and sysfs by
adding a new flag to mark them as filesystems without executables and
enforce that flag.
Test the flag where MNT_NOEXEC is tested today, so that the only user
visible effect will be that exectuables will be treated as if the
execute bit is cleared.
The filesystems proc and sysfs do not currently incoporate any
executable files so this does not result in any user visible effects.
This makes it unnecessary to vet changes to proc and sysfs tightly for
adding exectuable files or changes to chattr that would modify
existing files, as no matter what the individual file say they will
not be treated as exectuable files by the vfs.
Not having to vet changes to closely is important as without this we
are only one proc_create call (or another goof up in the
implementation of notify_change) from having problematic executables
on proc. Those mistakes are all too easy to make and would create
a situation where there are security issues or the assumptions of
some program having to be broken (and cause userspace regressions).

The "fix" in commit 0b08c5e594 ("audit: Fix check of return value of

Steven Rostedt:
"Yes, strnlen_user() returns 0 on fault, but if you look at what len is
set to, than you would notice that on fault len would be -1"
because we just subtracted one from the return value. So testing
against 0 doesn't test for a fault condition, it tests against a
perfectly valid empty string.
Also fix up the usual braindamage wrt using WARN_ON() inside a
conditional - make it part of the conditional and remove the explicit
unlikely() (which is already part of the WARN_ON*() logic, exactly so
that you don't have to write unreadable code.

Fengguang Wu's tests triggered a bug in the branch tracer's start up
test when CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT set. This was because that config
adds some debug logic in the per cpu field, which calls back into
the branch tracer.
The branch tracer has its own recursive checks, but uses a per cpu
variable to implement it. If retrieving the per cpu variable calls
back into the branch tracer, you can see how things will break.
Instead of using a per cpu variable, use the trace_recursion field
of the current task struct. Simply set a bit when entering the
branch tracing and clear it when leaving. If the bit is set on
entry, just don't do the tracing.
There's also the case with lockdep, as the local_irq_save() called
before the recursion can also trigger code that can call back into
the function. Changing that to a raw_local_irq_save() will protect
that as well.
This prevents the recursion and the inevitable crash that follows.

When a cpu goes up some architectures (e.g. x86) have to walk the irq
space to set up the vector space for the cpu. While this needs extra
protection at the architecture level we can avoid a few race
conditions by preventing the concurrent allocation/free of irq
descriptors and the associated data.
When a cpu goes down it moves the interrupts which are targeted to
this cpu away by reassigning the affinities. While this happens
interrupts can be allocated and freed, which opens a can of race
conditions in the code which reassignes the affinities because
interrupt descriptors might be freed underneath.
Example:
CPU1 CPU2
cpu_up/down
irq_desc = irq_to_desc(irq);
remove_from_radix_tree(desc);
raw_spin_lock(&desc->lock);
free(desc);
We could protect the irq descriptors with RCU, but that would require
a full tree change of all accesses to interrupt descriptors. But
fortunately these kind of race conditions are rather limited to a few
things like cpu hotplug. The normal setup/teardown is very well
serialized. So the simpler and obvious solution is:
Prevent allocation and freeing of interrupt descriptors accross cpu
hotplug.

Andriy reported that on a virtual machine the warning about negative
expiry time in the clock events programming code triggered:
hpet: hpet0 irq 40 for MSI
hpet: hpet1 irq 41 for MSI
Switching to clocksource hpet
WARNING: at kernel/time/clockevents.c:239
[<ffffffff810ce6eb>] clockevents_program_event+0xdb/0xf0
[<ffffffff810cf211>] tick_handle_periodic_broadcast+0x41/0x50
[<ffffffff81016525>] timer_interrupt+0x15/0x20
When the second hpet is installed as a per cpu timer the broadcast
event is not longer required and stopped, which sets the next_evt of
the broadcast device to KTIME_MAX.
If after that a spurious interrupt happens on the broadcast device,
then the current code blindly handles it and tries to reprogram the
broadcast device afterwards, which adds the period to
next_evt. KTIME_MAX + period results in a negative expiry value
causing the WARN_ON in the clockevents code to trigger.
Add a proper check for the state of the broadcast device into the
interrupt handler and return if the interrupt is spurious.

Currently the broadcast busy check, which prevents the idle code from
going into deep idle, works only in one shot mode.
If NOHZ and HIGHRES are off (config or command line) there is no
sanity check at all, so under certain conditions cpus are allowed to
go into deep idle, where the local timer stops, and are not woken up
again because there is no broadcast timer installed or a hrtimer based
broadcast device is not evaluated.
Move tick_broadcast_oneshot_control() into the common code and provide
proper subfunctions for the various config combinations.
The common check in tick_broadcast_oneshot_control() is for the C3STOP
misfeature flag of the local clock event device. If its not set, idle
can proceed. If set, further checks are necessary.
Provide checks for the trivial cases:
- If broadcast is disabled in the config, then return busy
- If oneshot mode (NOHZ/HIGHES) is disabled in the config, return
busy if the broadcast device is hrtimer based.
- If oneshot mode is enabled in the config call the original
tick_broadcast_oneshot_control() function. That function needs
extra checks which will be implemented in seperate patches.

track of the currently running timer.
local_timer_interrupt()
local_handler()
hrtimer_interrupt()
expire_hrtimers()
broadcast_hrtimer()
send_ipis()
local_handler()
hrtimer_interrupt()
....
Solution is simple: Prevent the local handler call from the broadcast

Its mandatory for the drivers to provide set_state_{oneshot|periodic}()
(only if related modes are supported) and set_state_shutdown() callbacks
today, if they are implementing the new set-state interface.
But this leads to unnecessary noop callbacks for drivers which don't
want to implement them. Over that, it will lead to a full function call
for nothing really useful.
Lets make all set-state callbacks optional.

The current load balancer may not try to prevent a task from moving
out of a preferred node to a less preferred node. The reason for this
being:
- Since sched features NUMA and NUMA_RESIST_LOWER are disabled by
default, migrate_degrades_locality() always returns false.
- Even if NUMA_RESIST_LOWER were to be enabled, if its cache hot,
migrate_degrades_locality() never gets called.
The above behaviour can mean that tasks can move out of their
preferred node but they may be eventually be brought back to their
preferred node by numa balancer (due to higher numa faults).
To avoid the above, this commit merges migrate_degrades_locality() and
migrate_improves_locality(). It also replaces 3 sched features NUMA,
NUMA_FAVOUR_HIGHER and NUMA_RESIST_LOWER by a single sched feature
NUMA.

According to the comments, we need to test if this is
the first throttled task, however, list_empty() tests on
the entry cfs_rq->throttled_list, not the head, this is wrong.
This is a bug because we don't re-init the list entry after
removing it from the list, so list_empty() could return false
even if the list is really empty.

The qrwlock is fair in the process context, but becoming unfair when
in the interrupt context to support use cases like the tasklist_lock.
The current code isn't that well-documented on what happens when
in the interrupt context. The rspin_until_writer_unlock() will only
spin if the writer has gotten the lock. If the writer is still in the
waiting state, the increment in the reader count will cause the writer
to remain in the waiting state and the new interrupt context reader
will get the lock and return immediately. The current code, however,
does an additional read of the lock value which is not necessary as
the information has already been there in the fast path. This may
sometime cause an additional cacheline transfer when the lock is
highly contended.
This patch passes the lock value information gotten in the fast path
to the slow path to eliminate the additional read. It also documents
the action for the interrupt context readers more clearly.

Commit 44dba3d5d6 ("sched: Refactor task_struct to use
numa_faults instead of numa_* pointers") modified the way
tsk->numa_faults stats are accounted.
However that commit never touched show_numa_stats() that is displayed
in /proc/pid/sched and thus the numbers displayed in /proc/pid/sched
don't match the actual numbers.
Fix it by making sure that /proc/pid/sched reflects the task
fault numbers. Also add group fault stats too.
Also couple of more modifications are added here:
1. Format changes:
- Previously we would list two entries per node, one for private
and one for shared. Also the home node info was listed in each entry.
- Now preferred node, total_faults and current node are
displayed separately.
- Now there is one entry per node, that lists private,shared task and
group faults.
2. Unit changes:
- p->numa_pages_migrated was getting reset after every read of
/proc/pid/sched. It's more useful to have absolute numbers since
differential migrations between two accesses can be more easily
calculated.

Currently print_cfs_rq() is declared in include/linux/sched.h.
However it's not used outside kernel/sched. Hence move the

Also some functions are only available for CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG=y.

Pull user namespace updates from Eric Biederman:
"Long ago and far away when user namespaces where young it was realized
that allowing fresh mounts of proc and sysfs with only user namespace
permissions could violate the basic rule that only root gets to decide
if proc or sysfs should be mounted at all.
Some hacks were put in place to reduce the worst of the damage could
be done, and the common sense rule was adopted that fresh mounts of
proc and sysfs should allow no more than bind mounts of proc and
sysfs. Unfortunately that rule has not been fully enforced.
There are two kinds of gaps in that enforcement. Only filesystems
mounted on empty directories of proc and sysfs should be ignored but
the test for empty directories was insufficient. So in my tree
directories on proc, sysctl and sysfs that will always be empty are
created specially. Every other technique is imperfect as an ordinary
directory can have entries added even after a readdir returns and
shows that the directory is empty. Special creation of directories
for mount points makes the code in the kernel a smidge clearer about
it's purpose. I asked container developers from the various container
projects to help test this and no holes were found in the set of mount
points on proc and sysfs that are created specially.
This set of changes also starts enforcing the mount flags of fresh
mounts of proc and sysfs are consistent with the existing mount of
proc and sysfs. I expected this to be the boring part of the work but
unfortunately unprivileged userspace winds up mounting fresh copies of
proc and sysfs with noexec and nosuid clear when root set those flags
on the previous mount of proc and sysfs. So for now only the atime,
read-only and nodev attributes which userspace happens to keep
consistent are enforced. Dealing with the noexec and nosuid
attributes remains for another time.
This set of changes also addresses an issue with how open file
descriptors from /proc/<pid>/ns/* are displayed. Recently readlink of
/proc/<pid>/fd has been triggering a WARN_ON that has not been
meaningful since it was added (as all of the code in the kernel was
converted) and is not now actively wrong.
There is also a short list of issues that have not been fixed yet that
I will mention briefly.
It is possible to rename a directory from below to above a bind mount.
At which point any directory pointers below the renamed directory can
be walked up to the root directory of the filesystem. With user
namespaces enabled a bind mount of the bind mount can be created
allowing the user to pick a directory whose children they can rename
to outside of the bind mount. This is challenging to fix and doubly
so because all obvious solutions must touch code that is in the
performance part of pathname resolution.
As mentioned above there is also a question of how to ensure that
developers by accident or with purpose do not introduce exectuable
files on sysfs and proc and in doing so introduce security regressions
in the current userspace that will not be immediately obvious and as
such are likely to require breaking userspace in painful ways once
they are recognized"

Commit 1cde2930e1 ("sched/preempt: Add static_key() to preempt_notifiers")
had two problems. First, the preempt-notifier API needs to sleep with the
addition of the static_key, we do however need to hold off preemption
while modifying the preempt notifier list, otherwise a preemption could
observe an inconsistent list state. KVM correctly registers and
unregisters preempt notifiers with preemption disabled, so the sleep
caused dmesg splats.
Second, KVM registers and unregisters preemption notifiers very often
(in vcpu_load/vcpu_put). With a single uniprocessor guest the static key
would move between 0 and 1 continuously, hitting the slow path on every
userspace exit.
To fix this, wrap the static_key inc/dec in a new API, and call it from
KVM.

Main excitement here is Peter Zijlstra's lockless rbtree optimization to
speed module address lookup. He found some abusers of the module lock
doing that too.
A little bit of parameter work here too; including Dan Streetman's breaking
up the big param mutex so writing a parameter can load another module (yeah,
really). Unfortunately that broke the usual suspects, !CONFIG_MODULES and
!CONFIG_SYSFS, so those fixes were appended too.

Fix kernel gcov support for GCC 5.1. Similar to commit a992bf836f
("gcov: add support for GCC 4.9"), this patch takes into account the
existence of a new gcov counter (see gcc's gcc/gcov-counter.def.)
Firstly, it increments GCOV_COUNTERS (to 10), which makes the data
structure struct gcov_info compatible with GCC 5.1.
Secondly, a corresponding counter function __gcov_merge_icall_topn (Top N
value tracking for indirect calls) is included in base.c with the other
gcov counters unused for kernel profiling.

Commit f06e5153f4 ("kernel/panic.c: add "crash_kexec_post_notifiers"
option for kdump after panic_notifers") introduced
"crash_kexec_post_notifiers" kernel boot option, which toggles wheather
panic() calls crash_kexec() before panic_notifiers and dump kmsg or after.
The problem is that the commit overlooks panic_on_oops kernel boot option.
If it is enabled, crash_kexec() is called directly without going through
panic() in oops path.
To fix this issue, this patch adds a check to "crash_kexec_post_notifiers"
in the condition of kexec_should_crash().
Also, put a comment in kexec_should_crash() to explain not obvious things
on this patch.

For compatibility with the behaviour before the commit f06e5153f4
("kernel/panic.c: add "crash_kexec_post_notifiers" option for kdump after
panic_notifers"), the 2nd crash_kexec() should be called only if
crash_kexec_post_notifiers is enabled.
Note that crash_kexec() returns immediately if kdump crash kernel is not
loaded, so in this case, this patch makes no functionality change, but the
point is to make it explicit, from the caller panic() side, that the 2nd
crash_kexec() does nothing.

unified hierarchy.

"monitonic raw". Also some enhancements to make the ring buffer even
faster. But the biggest and most noticeable change is the renaming of
the ftrace* files, structures and variables that have to deal with
trace events.
Over the years I've had several developers tell me about their confusion
with what ftrace is compared to events. Technically, "ftrace" is the
infrastructure to do the function hooks, which include tracing and also
helps with live kernel patching. But the trace events are a separate
entity altogether, and the files that affect the trace events should
not be named "ftrace". These include:
include/trace/ftrace.h -> include/trace/trace_events.h
include/linux/ftrace_event.h -> include/linux/trace_events.h
Also, functions that are specific for trace events have also been renamed:
ftrace_print_*() -> trace_print_*()
(un)register_ftrace_event() -> (un)register_trace_event()
ftrace_event_name() -> trace_event_name()
ftrace_trigger_soft_disabled()-> trace_trigger_soft_disabled()
ftrace_define_fields_##call() -> trace_define_fields_##call()
ftrace_get_offsets_##call() -> trace_get_offsets_##call()
Structures have been renamed:
ftrace_event_file -> trace_event_file
ftrace_event_{call,class} -> trace_event_{call,class}
ftrace_event_buffer -> trace_event_buffer
ftrace_subsystem_dir -> trace_subsystem_dir
ftrace_event_raw_##call -> trace_event_raw_##call
ftrace_event_data_offset_##call-> trace_event_data_offset_##call
ftrace_event_type_funcs_##call -> trace_event_type_funcs_##call
And a few various variables and flags have also been updated.
This has been sitting in linux-next for some time, and I have not heard
a single complaint about this rename breaking anything. Mostly because
these functions, variables and structures are mostly internal to the
tracing system and are seldom (if ever) used by anything external to that.

I could not come up with a situation where the operand counter (cnt)
could go below zero, so I added a WARN_ON_ONCE(cnt < 0). Vince was
able to trigger that warn on with his fuzzer test, but didn't have
a filter input that caused it.
Later, Sasha Levin was able to trigger that same warning, and was
able to give me the filter string that triggered it. It was simply
a single operation ">".
I wrapped the filtering code in a userspace program such that I could
single step through the logic. With a single operator the operand
counter can legitimately go below zero, and should be reported to the
user as an error, but should not produce a kernel warning. The
WARN_ON_ONCE(cnt < 0) should be just a "if (cnt < 0) break;" and the
code following it will produce the error message for the user.
While debugging this, I found that there was another bug that let
the pointer to the filter string go beyond the filter string.
This too was fixed.
Finally, there was a typo in a stub function that only gets compiled
if trace events is disabled but tracing is enabled (I'm not even sure
that's possible).

"This isn't my 4.2 pull request (yet). I found a few more bugs that I
would have sent to fix 4.1, but since 4.1 is already out, I'm sending
this before sending my 4.2 request (which is ready to go).
After fixing the previous filter issue reported by Vince Weaver, I
could not come up with a situation where the operand counter (cnt)
could go below zero, so I added a WARN_ON_ONCE(cnt < 0). Vince was
able to trigger that warn on with his fuzzer test, but didn't have a
filter input that caused it.
Later, Sasha Levin was able to trigger that same warning, and was able
to give me the filter string that triggered it. It was simply a
single operation ">".
I wrapped the filtering code in a userspace program such that I could
single step through the logic. With a single operator the operand
counter can legitimately go below zero, and should be reported to the
user as an error, but should not produce a kernel warning. The
WARN_ON_ONCE(cnt < 0) should be just a "if (cnt < 0) break;" and the
code following it will produce the error message for the user.
While debugging this, I found that there was another bug that let the
pointer to the filter string go beyond the filter string. This too
was fixed.
Finally, there was a typo in a stub function that only gets compiled
if trace events is disabled but tracing is enabled (I'm not even sure
that's possible)"

Yep, that's right: gcc isn't smart enough to realize that replacing '/' by
'_' cannot change the strlen(), so we call it again and again (at least
when a '/' is found). Even if gcc were that smart, this construction
would still loop over the string twice, once for the initial strlen() call
and then the open-coded loop.
Let's simply use strreplace() instead.

Patch fixes drawbacks in heck_syslog_permissions() noticed by AKPM:
"from_file handling makes me cry.
That's not a boolean - it's an enumerated value with two values
currently defined.
But the code in check_syslog_permissions() treats it as a boolean and
also hardwires the knowledge that SYSLOG_FROM_PROC == 1 (or == `true`).
And the name is wrong: it should be called from_proc to match
SYSLOG_FROM_PROC."

The final version of commit 637241a900 ("kmsg: honor dmesg_restrict
sysctl on /dev/kmsg") lost few hooks, as result security_syslog() are
processed incorrectly:
- open of /dev/kmsg checks syslog access permissions by using
check_syslog_permissions() where security_syslog() is not called if
dmesg_restrict is set.
- syslog syscall and /proc/kmsg calls do_syslog() where security_syslog
can be executed twice (inside check_syslog_permissions() and then
directly in do_syslog())
With this patch security_syslog() is called once only in all
syslog-related operations regardless of dmesg_restrict value.

printk log_buf keeps various metadata for each message including its
sequence number and timestamp. The metadata is currently available only
through /dev/kmsg and stripped out before passed onto console drivers. We
want this metadata to be available to console drivers too so that console
consumers can get full information including the metadata and dictionary,
which among other things can be used to detect whether messages got lost
in transit.
This patch implements support for extended console drivers. Consoles can
indicate that they want extended messages by setting the new CON_EXTENDED
flag and they'll be fed messages formatted the same way as /dev/kmsg.
"<level>,<sequnum>,<timestamp>,<contflag>;<message text>\n"
If extended consoles exist, in-kernel fragment assembly is disabled. This
ensures that all messages emitted to consoles have full metadata including
sequence number. The contflag carries enough information to reassemble
the fragments from the reader side trivially. Note that this only affects
/dev/kmsg. Regular console and /proc/kmsg outputs are not affected by
this change.
* Extended message formatting for console drivers is enabled iff there
are registered extended consoles.
* Comment describing /dev/kmsg message format updated to add missing
contflag field and help distinguishing variable from verbatim terms.

This patchset updates netconsole so that it can emit messages with the
same header as used in /dev/kmsg which gives neconsole receiver full log
information which enables things like structured logging and detection
of lost messages.
This patch (of 7):
devkmsg_read() uses 8k buffer and assumes that the formatted output
message won't overrun which seems safe given LOG_LINE_MAX, the current use
of dict and the escaping method being used; however, we're planning to use
devkmsg formatting wider and accounting for the buffer size properly isn't
that complicated.
This patch defines CONSOLE_EXT_LOG_MAX as 8192 and updates devkmsg_read()
so that it limits output accordingly.

clone has some of the quirkiest syscall handling in the kernel, with a
pile of special cases, historical curiosities, and architecture-specific
calling conventions. In particular, clone with CLONE_SETTLS accepts a
parameter "tls" that the C entry point completely ignores and some
assembly entry points overwrite; instead, the low-level arch-specific
code pulls the tls parameter out of the arch-specific register captured
as part of pt_regs on entry to the kernel. That's a massive hack, and
it makes the arch-specific code only work when called via the specific
existing syscall entry points; because of this hack, any new clone-like
system call would have to accept an identical tls argument in exactly
the same arch-specific position, rather than providing a unified system
call entry point across architectures.
The first patch allows architectures to handle the tls argument via
normal C parameter passing, if they opt in by selecting
HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS. The second patch makes 32-bit and 64-bit x86 opt
into this.
These two patches came out of the clone4 series, which isn't ready for
this merge window, but these first two cleanup patches were entirely
uncontroversial and have acks. I'd like to go ahead and submit these
two so that other architectures can begin building on top of this and
opting into HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS. However, I'm also happy to wait and
send these through the next merge window (along with v3 of clone4) if
anyone would prefer that.
This patch (of 2):
clone with CLONE_SETTLS accepts an argument to set the thread-local
storage area for the new thread. sys_clone declares an int argument
tls_val in the appropriate point in the argument list (based on the
various CLONE_BACKWARDS variants), but doesn't actually use or pass along
that argument. Instead, sys_clone calls do_fork, which calls
copy_process, which calls the arch-specific copy_thread, and copy_thread
pulls the corresponding syscall argument out of the pt_regs captured at
kernel entry (knowing what argument of clone that architecture passes tls
in).
Apart from being awful and inscrutable, that also only works because only
one code path into copy_thread can pass the CLONE_SETTLS flag, and that
code path comes from sys_clone with its architecture-specific
argument-passing order. This prevents introducing a new version of the
clone system call without propagating the same architecture-specific
position of the tls argument.
However, there's no reason to pull the argument out of pt_regs when
sys_clone could just pass it down via C function call arguments.
Introduce a new CONFIG_HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS for architectures to opt into,
and a new copy_thread_tls that accepts the tls parameter as an additional
unsigned long (syscall-argument-sized) argument. Change sys_clone's tls
argument to an unsigned long (which does not change the ABI), and pass
that down to copy_thread_tls.
Architectures that don't opt into copy_thread_tls will continue to ignore
the C argument to sys_clone in favor of the pt_regs captured at kernel
entry, and thus will be unable to introduce new versions of the clone
syscall.

PR_SET_MM_ENV_END only check that the address lies in an existing VMA,

While debugging a WARN_ON() for filtering, I found that it is possible
for the filter string to be referenced after its end. With the filter:
# echo '>' > /sys/kernel/debug/events/ext4/ext4_truncate_exit/filter
The filter_parse() function can call infix_get_op() which calls
infix_advance() that updates the infix filter pointers for the cnt
and tail without checking if the filter is already at the end, which
will put the cnt to zero and the tail beyond the end. The loop then calls
infix_next() that has
ps->infix.cnt--;
return ps->infix.string[ps->infix.tail++];
The cnt will now be below zero, and the tail that is returned is
already passed the end of the filter string. So far the allocation
of the filter string usually has some buffer that is zeroed out, but
if the filter string is of the exact size of the allocated buffer
there's no guarantee that the charater after the nul terminating
character will be zero.
Luckily, only root can write to the filter.

When testing the fix for the trace filter, I could not come up with
a scenario where the operand count goes below zero, so I added a
WARN_ON_ONCE(cnt < 0) to the logic. But there is legitimate case
that it can happen (although the filter would be wrong).
# echo '>' > /sys/kernel/debug/events/ext4/ext4_truncate_exit/filter
That is, a single operation without any operands will hit the path
where the WARN_ON_ONCE() can trigger. Although this is harmless,
and the filter is reported as a error. But instead of spitting out
a warning to the kernel dmesg, just fail nicely and report it via
the proper channels.

Rename unmark_oom_victim() to exit_oom_victim(). Marking and unmarking
are related in functionality, but the interface is not symmetrical at
all: one is an internal OOM killer function used during the killing, the
other is for an OOM victim to signal its own death on exit later on.
This has locking implications, see follow-up changes.
While at it, rename mark_tsk_oom_victim() to mark_oom_victim(), which
is easier on the eye.

Change the default behavior of watchdog so it only runs on the
housekeeping cores when nohz_full is enabled at build and boot time.
Allow modifying the set of cores the watchdog is currently running on
with a new kernel.watchdog_cpumask sysctl.
In the current system, the watchdog subsystem runs a periodic timer that
schedules the watchdog kthread to run. However, nohz_full cores are
designed to allow userspace application code running on those cores to
have 100% access to the CPU. So the watchdog system prevents the
nohz_full application code from being able to run the way it wants to,
thus the motivation to suppress the watchdog on nohz_full cores, which
this patchset provides by default.
However, if we disable the watchdog globally, then the housekeeping
cores can't benefit from the watchdog functionality. So we allow
disabling it only on some cores. See Documentation/lockup-watchdogs.txt

This patch series allows the watchdog to run by default only on the
housekeeping cores when nohz_full is in effect; this seems to be a good
compromise short of turning it off completely (since the nohz_full cores
can't tolerate a watchdog).
To provide customizability, we add /proc/sys/kernel/watchdog_cpumask so
that the set of cores running the watchdog can be tuned to different
values after bootup.
To implement this customizability, we add a new
smpboot_update_cpumask_percpu_thread() API to the smpboot_thread
subsystem that lets us park or unpark "unwanted" threads.
And now that threads can be parked for long periods of time, we tweak the
/proc/<pid>/stat and /proc/<pid>/status code so parked threads aren't
reported as running, which is otherwise confusing.
This patch (of 3):
This change allows some cores to be excluded from running the
smp_hotplug_thread tasks. The following commit to update
kernel/watchdog.c to use this functionality is the motivating example, and
more information on the motivation is provided there.
A new smp_hotplug_thread field is introduced, "cpumask", which is cpumask
field managed by the smpboot subsystem that indicates whether or not the
given smp_hotplug_thread should run on that core; the cpumask is checked
when deciding whether to unpark the thread.
To limit the cpumask to less than cpu_possible, you must call
smpboot_update_cpumask_percpu_thread() after registering.

Many harddisks (mostly WD ones) have firmware problems and take too
long, more than 10 seconds, to resume from suspend. And this often
exceeds the default DPM watchdog timeout (12 seconds), resulting in a
kernel panic out of sudden.
Since most distros just take the default as is, we should give a bit
more safer value. This patch increases the default value from 12
seconds to one minute, which has been confirmed to be long enough for
such problematic disks.

Pull power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"The rework of backlight interface selection API from Hans de Goede
stands out from the number of commits and the number of affected
places perspective. The cpufreq core fixes from Viresh Kumar are
quite significant too as far as the number of commits goes and because
they should reduce CPU online/offline overhead quite a bit in the
majority of cases.
From the new featues point of view, the ACPICA update (to upstream
revision 20150515) adding support for new ACPI 6 material to ACPICA is
the one that matters the most as some new significant features will be
based on it going forward. Also included is an update of the ACPI
device power management core to follow ACPI 6 (which in turn reflects
the Windows' device PM implementation), a PM core extension to support
wakeup interrupts in a more generic way and support for the ACPI _CCA
device configuration object.
The rest is mostly fixes and cleanups all over and some documentation
updates, including new DT bindings for Operating Performance Points.
There is one fix for a regression introduced in the 4.1 cycle, but it
adds quite a number of lines of code, it wasn't really ready before
Thursday and you were on vacation, so I refrained from pushing it on
the last minute for 4.1.

Add a "param_lock" mutex to each module, and update params.c to use
the correct built-in or module mutex while locking kernel params.
Remove the kparam_block_sysfs_r/w() macros, replace them with direct
calls to kernel_param_[un]lock(module).
The kernel param code currently uses a single mutex to protect
modification of any and all kernel params. While this generally works,
there is one specific problem with it; a module callback function
cannot safely load another module, i.e. with request_module() or even
with indirect calls such as crypto_has_alg(). If the module to be
loaded has any of its params configured (e.g. with a /etc/modprobe.d/*
config file), then the attempt will result in a deadlock between the
first module param callback waiting for modprobe, and modprobe trying to
lock the single kernel param mutex to set the new module's param.
This fixes that by using per-module mutexes, so that each individual module
is protected against concurrent changes in its own kernel params, but is
not blocked by changes to other module params. All built-in modules
continue to use the built-in mutex, since they will always be loaded at
runtime and references (e.g. request_module(), crypto_has_alg()) to them
will never cause load-time param changing.
This also simplifies the interface used by modules to block sysfs access
to their params; while there are currently functions to block and unblock
sysfs param access which are split up by read and write and expect a single
kernel param to be passed, their actual operation is identical and applies
to all params, not just the one passed to them; they simply lock and unlock
the global param mutex. They are replaced with direct calls to
kernel_param_[un]lock(THIS_MODULE), which locks THIS_MODULE's param_lock, or
if the module is built-in, it locks the built-in mutex.

Pull x86 core updates from Ingo Molnar:
"There were so many changes in the x86/asm, x86/apic and x86/mm topics
in this cycle that the topical separation of -tip broke down somewhat -
so the result is a more traditional architecture pull request,
collected into the 'x86/core' topic.
The topics were still maintained separately as far as possible, so
bisectability and conceptual separation should still be pretty good -
but there were a handful of merge points to avoid excessive
dependencies (and conflicts) that would have been poorly tested in the
end.
The next cycle will hopefully be much more quiet (or at least will
have fewer dependencies).
The main changes in this cycle were:
* x86/apic changes, with related IRQ core changes: (Jiang Liu, Thomas
Gleixner)
- This is the second and most intrusive part of changes to the x86
interrupt handling - full conversion to hierarchical interrupt
domains:
[IOAPIC domain] -----
|
[MSI domain] --------[Remapping domain] ----- [ Vector domain ]
| (optional) |
[HPET MSI domain] ----- |
|
[DMAR domain] -----------------------------
|
[Legacy domain] -----------------------------
This now reflects the actual hardware and allowed us to distangle
the domain specific code from the underlying parent domain, which
can be optional in the case of interrupt remapping. It's a clear
separation of functionality and removes quite some duct tape
constructs which plugged the remap code between ioapic/msi/hpet
and the vector management.
- Intel IOMMU IRQ remapping enhancements, to allow direct interrupt
injection into guests (Feng Wu)
* x86/asm changes:
- Tons of cleanups and small speedups, micro-optimizations. This
is in preparation to move a good chunk of the low level entry
code from assembly to C code (Denys Vlasenko, Andy Lutomirski,
Brian Gerst)
- Moved all system entry related code to a new home under
arch/x86/entry/ (Ingo Molnar)
- Removal of the fragile and ugly CFI dwarf debuginfo annotations.
Conversion to C will reintroduce many of them - but meanwhile
they are only getting in the way, and the upstream kernel does
not rely on them (Ingo Molnar)
- NOP handling refinements. (Borislav Petkov)
* x86/mm changes:
- Big PAT and MTRR rework: making the code more robust and
preparing to phase out exposing direct MTRR interfaces to drivers -
in favor of using PAT driven interfaces (Toshi Kani, Luis R
Rodriguez, Borislav Petkov)
- New ioremap_wt()/set_memory_wt() interfaces to support
Write-Through cached memory mappings. This is especially
important for good performance on NVDIMM hardware (Toshi Kani)
* x86/ras changes:
- Add support for deferred errors on AMD (Aravind Gopalakrishnan)
This is an important RAS feature which adds hardware support for
poisoned data. That means roughly that the hardware marks data
which it has detected as corrupted but wasn't able to correct, as
poisoned data and raises an APIC interrupt to signal that in the
form of a deferred error. It is the OS's responsibility then to
take proper recovery action and thus prolonge system lifetime as
far as possible.
- Add support for Intel "Local MCE"s: upcoming CPUs will support
CPU-local MCE interrupts, as opposed to the traditional system-
wide broadcasted MCE interrupts (Ashok Raj)
- Misc cleanups (Borislav Petkov)
* x86/platform changes:
- Intel Atom SoC updates
... and lots of other cleanups, fixlets and other changes - see the
shortlog and the Git log for details"

Pull x86 FPU updates from Ingo Molnar:
"This tree contains two main changes:
- The big FPU code rewrite: wide reaching cleanups and reorganization
that pulls all the FPU code together into a clean base in
arch/x86/fpu/.
The resulting code is leaner and faster, and much easier to
understand. This enables future work to further simplify the FPU
code (such as removing lazy FPU restores).
By its nature these changes have a substantial regression risk: FPU
code related bugs are long lived, because races are often subtle
and bugs mask as user-space failures that are difficult to track
back to kernel side backs. I'm aware of no unfixed (or even
suspected) FPU related regression so far.
- MPX support rework/fixes. As this is still not a released CPU
feature, there were some buglets in the code - should be much more
robust now (Dave Hansen)"

If an interrupt is marked with the no balancing flag, we still allow
setting the affinity for such an interrupt from the kernel itself, but
for interrupts which move the affinity from interrupt context via
irq_move_mask_irq() this runs into a check for the no balancing flag,
which in turn ends up with an endless storm of stack dumps because the
move pending flag is not reset.
Allow the move for interrupts which have the no balancing flag set and
clear the move pending bit before checking for interrupts with the per
cpu flag set.

wake_futex_pi() wakes the task before releasing the hash bucket lock
(HB). The first thing the woken up task usually does is to acquire the
lock which requires the HB lock. On SMP Systems this leads to blocking
on the HB lock which is released by the owner shortly after.
This patch rearranges the unlock path by first releasing the HB lock and
then waking up the task.
[ tglx: Fixed up the rtmutex unlock path ]

If nohz is disabled on the kernel command line the [hr]timer code
still calls wake_up_nohz_cpu() and tick_nohz_full_cpu(), a pretty
pointless exercise. Cache nohz_active in [hr]timer per cpu bases and

We probably should have a cached value for nohz full in the per cpu

already, the cpumask not necessarily.

Eric reported that the timer_migration sysctl is not really nice
performance wise as it needs to check at every timer insertion whether
the feature is enabled or not. Further the check does not live in the
timer code, so we have an extra function call which checks an extra
cache line to figure out that it is disabled.
We can do better and store that information in the per cpu (hr)timer
bases. I pondered to use a static key, but that's a nightmare to
update from the nohz code and the timer base cache line is hot anyway
when we select a timer base.
The old logic enabled the timer migration unconditionally if
CONFIG_NO_HZ was set even if nohz was disabled on the kernel command
line.
With this modification, we start off with migration disabled. The user
visible sysctl is still set to enabled. If the kernel switches to NOHZ
migration is enabled, if the user did not disable it via the sysctl
prior to the switch. If nohz=off is on the kernel command line,
migration stays disabled no matter what.

Simplify the handling of the flag storage for the timer statistics. No
intermediate storage anymore. Just hand over the flags field.
I left the printout of 'deferrable' for now because changing this
would be an ABI update and I have no idea how strong people feel about
that. OTOH, I wonder whether we should kill the whole timer stats
stuff because all of that information can be retrieved via ftrace/perf
as well.

Instead of storing a pointer to the per cpu tvec_base we can simply
cache a CPU index in the timer_list and use that to get hold of the
correct per cpu tvec_base. This is only used in lock_timer_base() and
the slightly larger code is peanuts versus the spinlock operation and
the d-cache foot print of the timer wheel.
Aside of that this allows to get rid of following nuisances:
- boot_tvec_base
That statically allocated 4k bss data is just kept around so the
timer has a home when it gets statically initialized. It serves no
other purpose.
With the CPU index we assign the timer to CPU0 at static
initialization time and therefor can avoid the whole boot_tvec_base
dance. That also simplifies the init code, which just can use the
per cpu base.
Before:
text data bss dec hex filename
17491 9201 4160 30852 7884 ../build/kernel/time/timer.o
After:
text data bss dec hex filename
17440 9193 0 26633 6809 ../build/kernel/time/timer.o
- Overloading the base pointer with various flags
The CPU index has enough space to hold the flags (deferrable,
irqsafe) so we can get rid of the extra masking and bit fiddling
with the base pointer.
As a benefit we reduce the size of struct timer_list on 64 bit
machines. 4 - 8 bytes, a size reduction up to 15% per struct timer_list,
which is a real win as we have tons of them embedded in other structs.
This changes also the newly added deferrable printout of the timer
start trace point to capture and print all timer->flags, which allows
us to decode the target cpu of the timer as well.
We might have used bitfields for this, but that would change the
static initializers and the init function for no value to accomodate
big endian bitfields.

The FIFO guarantee is only there if two timers are queued into the
same bucket at the same jiffie on the same cpu:
- The slack value depends on the delta between expiry and enqueue
time, so the resulting expiry time can be different for timers
which are queued in different jiffies.
- Timers which are queued into the secondary array end up after a
later queued timer which was queued into the primary array due to
cascading.
- Timers can end up on different cpus due to the NOHZ target moving
around. Obviously there is no guarantee of expiry ordering between
cpus.
So anything which relies on FIFO behaviour of the timer wheel is
broken already.
This is a preparatory patch for converting the timer wheel to hlist
which reduces the memory foot print of the wheel by 50%.
It's a seperate patch so any (unlikely to happen) regression caused by
this can be identified clearly.

catchup_timer_jiffies() has been applied blindly to several functions
without looking for possible better ways to do it.
1) internal_add_timer()
Move the update to base->all_timers before we actually insert the
timer into the wheel.
2) detach_if_pending()
Again the update to base->all_timers allows us to explicitely do
the timer_jiffies update in place, if this was the last timer which
got removed.
3) __run_timers()
We only check on entry, which is silly, because base->timer_jiffies
can be behind - especially on NOHZ kernels - and if there is a
single deferrable timer somewhere between base->timer_jiffies and
jiffies we expire it and then loop until base->timer_jiffies ==
jiffies.
Move it into the loop.

Resetting the p->dl_throttled flag in rt_mutex_setprio() (for a task that is going
to be boosted) is superfluous, as the natural place to do so is in
replenish_dl_entity().
If the task was on the runqueue and it is boosted by a DL task, it will be enqueued
back with ENQUEUE_REPLENISH flag set, which can guarantee that dl_throttled is
reset in replenish_dl_entity().
This patch drops the resetting of throttled status in function rt_mutex_setprio().

pull_dl_task() uses pick_next_earliest_dl_task() to select a migration
candidate; this is sub-optimal since the next earliest task -- as per
the regular runqueue -- might not be migratable at all. This could
result in iterating the entire runqueue looking for a task.
Instead iterate the pushable queue -- this queue only contains tasks
that have at least 2 cpus set in their cpus_allowed mask.

Jiri reported a machine stuck in multi_cpu_stop() with

pairs: {11, 4} {13, 11} { 4, 13}
4 11 13

*Ma
cpuN: queue(13,11)
*N Na
*M Mb
cpuO: queue(11, 4)
*O Oa
*Nb
*Ob
Where *X denotes the cpu running the queueing of cpu-X and X[ab] denotes
the first/second queued work.
You'll observe the top of the workqueue for each cpu: 4,11,13 to be work
from cpus: M, O, N resp. IOW. deadlock.
Do away with the queueing trickery and introduce lg_double_lock() to
lock both CPUs and fully serialize the stop_two_cpus() callers instead
of the partial (and buggy) serialization we have now.

Don't we need to ensure that we have "synchronize" _between_
list_del() and list_add() ?
IOW. Suppose that ring_buffer_attach() preempts right_after
get_state_synchronize_rcu() and gp completes before spin_lock().
In this case cond_synchronize_rcu() does nothing and we reuse
->rb_entry without waiting for gp in between?
It also moves the ->rcu_pending check under "if (rb)", to make it
more readable imo.

Add a lockdep annotation that WARNs if you 'accidentially' unlock a
lock.
This is especially helpful for code with callbacks, where the upper
layer assumes a lock remains taken but a lower layer thinks it maybe
can drop and reacquire the lock.
By unwittingly breaking up the lock, races can be introduced.
Lock pinning is a lockdep annotation that helps with this, when you
lockdep_pin_lock() a held lock, any unlock without a
lockdep_unpin_lock() will produce a WARN. Think of this as a relative
of lockdep_assert_held(), except you don't only assert its held now,
but ensure it stays held until you release your assertion.
RFC: a possible alternative API would be something like:
int cookie = lockdep_pin_lock(&foo);
...
lockdep_unpin_lock(&foo, cookie);
Where we pick a random number for the pin_count; this makes it
impossible to sneak a lock break in without also passing the right
cookie along.
I've not done this because it ends up generating code for !LOCKDEP,
esp. if you need to pass the cookie around for some reason.

We still have a few pending issues with the deadline code, one of which
is that switching between scheduling classes can 'leak' CBS state.
Close the hole by retaining the current CBS state when leaving
SCHED_DEADLINE and unconditionally programming the deadline timer.
The timer will then reset the CBS state if the task is still
!SCHED_DEADLINE by the time it hits.
If the task left SCHED_DEADLINE it will not call task_dead_dl() and
we'll not cancel the hrtimer, leaving us a pending timer in free
space. Avoid this by giving the timer a task reference, this avoids
littering the task exit path for this rather uncommon case.
In order to do this, I had to move dl_task_offline_migration() below
the replenishment, such that the task_rq()->lock fully covers that.
While doing this, I noticed that it (was) buggy in assuming a task is
enqueued and or we need to enqueue the task now. Fixing this means
select_task_rq_dl() might encounter an offline rq -- look into that.
As a result this kills cancel_dl_timer() which included a rq->lock
break.

In order to remove dropping rq->lock from the
switched_{to,from}()/prio_changed() sched_class methods, run the
balance callbacks after it.
We need to remove dropping rq->lock because its buggy,
suppose using sched_setattr()/sched_setscheduler() to change a running
task from FIFO to OTHER.
By the time we get to switched_from_rt() the task is already enqueued
on the cfs runqueues. If switched_from_rt() does pull_rt_task() and
drops rq->lock, load-balancing can come in and move our task @p to
another rq.
The subsequent switched_to_fair() still assumes @p is on @rq and bad
things will happen.
By using balance callbacks we delay the load-balancing operations
{rt,dl}x{push,pull} until we've done all the important work and the
task is fully set up.
Furthermore, the balance callbacks do not know about @p, therefore
they cannot get confused like this.

Currently an hrtimer callback function cannot free its own timer
because __run_hrtimer() still needs to clear HRTIMER_STATE_CALLBACK
after it. Freeing the timer would result in a clear use-after-free.
Solve this by using a scheme similar to regular timers; track the
current running timer in hrtimer_clock_base::running.

On traditional hierarchies, if a task has write access to "tasks" or
"cgroup.procs" file of a cgroup and its euid agrees with the target,
it can move the target to the cgroup; however, consider the following
scenario. The owner of each cgroup is in the parentheses.
R (root) - 0 (root) - 00 (user1) - 000 (user1)
| \ 001 (user1)
\ 1 (root) - 10 (user1)
The subtrees of 00 and 10 are delegated to user1; however, while both
subtrees may belong to the same user, it is clear that the two
subtrees are to be isolated - they're under completely separate
resource limits imposed by 0 and 1, respectively. Note that 0 and 1
aren't strictly necessary but added to ease illustrating the issue.
If user1 is allowed to move processes between the two subtrees, the
intention of the hierarchy - keeping a given group of processes under
a subtree with certain resource restrictions while delegating
management of the subtree - can be circumvented by user1.
This happens because migration permission check doesn't consider the
hierarchical nature of cgroups. To fix the issue, this patch adds an
extra permission requirement when userland tries to migrate a process
in the default hierarchy - the issuing task must have write access to
the common ancestor of "cgroup.procs" file of the ancestor in addition
to the destination's.
Conceptually, the issuer must be able to move the target process from
the source cgroup to the common ancestor of source and destination
cgroups and then to the destination. As long as delegation is done in
a proper top-down way, this guarantees that a delegatee can't smuggle
processes across disjoint delegation domains.
The next patch will add documentation on the delegation model on the
default hierarchy.

Separate out task / process migration permission check from
__cgroup_procs_write() into cgroup_procs_write_permission().
* Permission check is moved right above the actual migration and no
longer performed while holding rcu_read_lock().
cgroup_procs_write_permission() uses get_task_cred() / put_cred()
instead of __task_cred(). Also, !root trying to migrate kthreadd or
PF_NO_SETAFFINITY tasks will now fail with -EINVAL rather than
-EACCES which should be fine.
* The same permission check is now performed even when moving self by
specifying 0 as pid. This always succeeds so there's no functional
difference. We'll add more permission checks later and the benefits
of keeping both cases consistent outweigh the minute overhead of
doing perm checks on pid 0 case.

Mark the task for later wakeup after the wait_lock has been released.
This way, once the next task is awoken, it will have a better chance
to of finding the wait_lock free when continuing executing in
__rt_mutex_slowlock() when trying to acquire the rtmutex, calling
try_to_take_rt_mutex(). Upon contended scenarios, other tasks attempting
take the lock may acquire it first, right after the wait_lock is released,
but (a) this can also occur with the current code, as it relies on the
spinlock fairness, and (b) we are dealing with the top-waiter anyway,
so it will always take the lock next.

Driver authors seem to get the ordering of irq_set_chained_handler()
and irq_set_handler_data() wrong - ordering the former before the
latter. This opens a race window where, if there is an interrupt
pending, the handler will be called between these two calls,
potentially resulting in an oops.
Provide a single interface to set both of these together, especially
as that's commonly what is required.

The fix in d151832650 (time: Move clock_was_set_seq update
before updating shadow-timekeeper) was unfortunately incomplete.
The main gist of that change was to do the shadow-copy update
last, so that any state changes were properly duplicated, and
we wouldn't accidentally have stale data in the shadow.
Unfortunately in the main update_wall_time() logic, we update
use the shadow-timekeeper to calculate the next update values,
then while holding the lock, copy the shadow-timekeeper over,
then call timekeeping_update() to do some additional
bookkeeping, (skipping the shadow mirror). The bug with this is
the additional bookkeeping isn't all read-only, and some
changes timkeeper state. Thus we might then overwrite this state
change on the next update.
To avoid this problem, do the timekeeping_update() on the
shadow-timekeeper prior to copying the full state over to
the real-timekeeper.
This avoids problems with both the clock_was_set_seq and
next_leap_ktime being overwritten and possibly the
fast-timekeepers as well.
Many thanks to Prarit for his rigorous testing, which discovered
this problem, along with Prarit and Daniel's work validating this
fix.

CLOCK_EVT_MODE_* macros are present for backward compatibility (as most
of the drivers are still using old ->set_mode() interface).
These macro's shouldn't be used anymore in code, that is common to both
driver interfaces, i.e. ->set_mode() and ->set_state_*().
Drivers implementing ->set_state_*() interface, which have their
clkevt->mode set to 0 (clkevt device structures are normally globally
defined), will not participate in suspend/resume as they will always be
marked as UNUSED.
Fix this by checking state of the clockevent device instead of mode,
which is updated for both the interfaces.

Worse yet, reading the error message (the filter again) it says that
there was no error, when there clearly was. The issue is that the
code that checks the input does not check for balanced ops. That is,
having an op between a closed parenthesis and the next token.
This would only cause a warning, and fail out before doing any real
harm, but it should still not caues a warning, and the error reported
should work:

This lets you build a kernel which can support xen dom0
or xen guests on i386, x86-64 and arm64 by just using:
make xenconfig
You can start from an allnoconfig and then switch to xenconfig.
This also splits out the options which are available currently
to be built with x86 and 'make ARCH=arm64' under a shared config.
Technically xen supports a dom0 kernel and also a guest
kernel configuration but upon review with the xen team
since we don't have many dom0 options its best to just
combine these two into one.
A few generic notes: we enable both of these:
CONFIG_INET=y
CONFIG_BINFMT_ELF=y
although technically not required given you likely will
end up with a pretty useless system otherwise.
A few architectural differences worth noting:
$ make allnoconfig; make xenconfig > /dev/null ; \
grep XEN .config > 64-bit-config
$ make ARCH=i386 allnoconfig; make ARCH=i386 xenconfig > /dev/null; \
grep XEN .config > 32-bit-config
$ make ARCH=arm64 allnoconfig; make ARCH=arm64 xenconfig > /dev/null; \
grep XEN .config > arm64-config
Since the options are already split up with a generic config and
architecture specific configs you anything on the x86 configs
are known to only work right now on x86. For instance arm64 doesn't
support MEMORY_HOTPLUG yet as such although we try to enabe it
generically arm64 doesn't have it yet, so we leave the xen
specific kconfig option XEN_BALLOON_MEMORY_HOTPLUG on x86's config
file to set expecations correctly.
Then on x86 we have differences between i386 and x86-64. The difference
between 64-bit-config and 32-bit-config is you don't get XEN_MCE_LOG as
this is only supported on 64-bit. You also do not get on i386
XEN_BALLOON_MEMORY_HOTPLUG, there does not seem to be any technical
reasons to not allow this but I gave up after a few attempts.

It uses the existing @kill_test flag to finish the kthreads as

It disables printing the "ERROR" message when the kthread is going.
It makes sure that producer does not go into the 10sec sleep

Finally, it does not call wait_to_die() when kthread_should_stop()

With the introduction of hierarchy irqdomain, struct irq_data becomes
per-chip instead of per-irq and there may be multiple irq_datas
associated with the same irq. Some per-irq data stored in struct
irq_data now may get duplicated into multiple irq_datas, and causes
inconsistent view.
So introduce struct irq_common_data to host per-irq common data and to
achieve consistent view among irq_chips.

Since the leapsecond is applied at tick-time, this means there is a
small window of time at the start of a leap-second where we cross into
the next second before applying the leap.
This patch modified adjtimex so that the leap-second is applied on the
second edge. Providing more correct leapsecond behavior.
This does make it so that adjtimex()'s returned time values can be
inconsistent with time values read from gettimeofday() or
clock_gettime(CLOCK_REALTIME,...) for a brief period of one tick at
the leapsecond. However, those other interfaces do not provide the
TIME_OOP time_state return that adjtimex() provides, which allows the
leapsecond to be properly represented. They instead only see a time
discontinuity, and cannot tell the first 23:59:59 from the repeated
23:59:59 leap second.
This seems like a reasonable tradeoff given clock_gettime() /
gettimeofday() cannot properly represent a leapsecond, and users
likely care more about performance, while folks who are using
adjtimex() more likely care about leap-second correctness.

Currently, leapsecond adjustments are done at tick time. As a result,
the leapsecond was applied at the first timer tick *after* the
leapsecond (~1-10ms late depending on HZ), rather then exactly on the
second edge.
This was in part historical from back when we were always tick based,
but correcting this since has been avoided since it adds extra
conditional checks in the gettime fastpath, which has performance
overhead.
However, it was recently pointed out that ABS_TIME CLOCK_REALTIME
timers set for right after the leapsecond could fire a second early,
since some timers may be expired before we trigger the timekeeping
timer, which then applies the leapsecond.
This isn't quite as bad as it sounds, since behaviorally it is similar
to what is possible w/ ntpd made leapsecond adjustments done w/o using
the kernel discipline. Where due to latencies, timers may fire just
prior to the settimeofday call. (Also, one should note that all
applications using CLOCK_REALTIME timers should always be careful,
since they are prone to quirks from settimeofday() disturbances.)
However, the purpose of having the kernel do the leap adjustment is to
avoid such latencies, so I think this is worth fixing.
So in order to properly keep those timers from firing a second early,
this patch modifies the ntp and timekeeping logic so that we keep
enough state so that the update_base_offsets_now accessor, which
provides the hrtimer core the current time, can check and apply the
leapsecond adjustment on the second edge. This prevents the hrtimer
core from expiring timers too early.
This patch does not modify any other time read path, so no additional
overhead is incurred. However, this also means that the leap-second
continues to be applied at tick time for all other read-paths.
Apologies to Richard Cochran, who pushed for similar changes years
ago, which I resisted due to the concerns about the performance
overhead.
While I suspect this isn't extremely critical, folks who care about
strict leap-second correctness will likely want to watch
this. Potentially a -stable candidate eventually.

It was reported that 868a3e915f (hrtimer: Make offset
update smarter) was causing timer problems after suspend/resume.
The problem with that change is the modification to
clock_was_set_seq in timekeeping_update is done prior to
mirroring the time state to the shadow-timekeeper. Thus the
next time we do update_wall_time() the updated sequence is
overwritten by whats in the shadow copy.
This patch moves the shadow-timekeeper mirroring to the end
of the function, after all updates have been made, so all data
is kept in sync.
(This patch also affects the update_fast_timekeeper calls which
were also problematically done prior to the mirroring).

When the PEBS interrupt threshold is larger than one record and the
machine supports multiple PEBS events, the records of these events are
mixed up and we need to demultiplex them.
Demuxing the records is hard because the hardware is deficient. The
hardware has two issues that, when combined, create impossible
scenarios to demux.
The first issue is that the 'status' field of the PEBS record is a copy
of the GLOBAL_STATUS MSR at PEBS assist time. To see why this is a
problem let us first describe the regular PEBS cycle:
A) the CTRn value reaches 0:
- the corresponding bit in GLOBAL_STATUS gets set
- we start arming the hardware assist
< some unspecified amount of time later -- this could cover multiple
events of interest >
B) the hardware assist is armed, any next event will trigger it
C) a matching event happens:
- the hardware assist triggers and generates a PEBS record
this includes a copy of GLOBAL_STATUS at this moment
- if we auto-reload we (re)set CTRn
- we clear the relevant bit in GLOBAL_STATUS
Now consider the following chain of events:
A0, B0, A1, C0
The event generated for counter 0 will include a status with counter 1
set, even though its not at all related to the record. A similar thing
can happen with a !PEBS event if it just happens to overflow at the
right moment.
The second issue is that the hardware will only emit one record for two
or more counters if the event that triggers the assist is 'close'. The
'close' can be several cycles. In some cases even the complete assist,
if the event is something that doesn't need retirement.
For instance, consider this chain of events:
A0, B0, A1, B1, C01
Where C01 is an event that triggers both hardware assists, we will
generate but a single record, but again with both counters listed in the
status field.
This time the record pertains to both events.
Note that these two cases are different but undistinguishable with the
data as generated. Therefore demuxing records with multiple PEBS bits
(we can safely ignore status bits for !PEBS counters) is impossible.
Furthermore we cannot emit the record to both events because that might
cause a data leak -- the events might not have the same privileges -- so
what this patch does is discard such events.
The assumption/hope is that such discards will be rare.
Here lists some possible ways you may get high discard rate.
- when you count the same thing multiple times. But it is not a useful
configuration.
- you can be unfortunate if you measure with a userspace only PEBS
event along with either a kernel or unrestricted PEBS event. Imagine
the event triggering and setting the overflow flag right before
entering the kernel. Then all kernel side events will end up with
multiple bits set.

Changeset a43455a1d5 ("sched/numa: Ensure task_numa_migrate() checks
the preferred node") fixes an issue where workloads would never
converge on a fully loaded (or overloaded) system.
However, it introduces a regression on less than fully loaded systems,
where workloads converge on a few NUMA nodes, instead of properly
staying spread out across the whole system. This leads to a reduction
in available memory bandwidth, and usable CPU cache, with predictable
performance problems.
The root cause appears to be an interaction between the load balancer
and NUMA balancing, where the short term load represented by the load
balancer differs from the long term load the NUMA balancing code would
like to base its decisions on.
Simply reverting a43455a1d5 would re-introduce the non-convergence
of workloads on fully loaded systems, so that is not a good option. As
an aside, the check done before a43455a1d5 only applied to a task's
preferred node, not to other candidate nodes in the system, so the
converge-on-too-few-nodes problem still happens, just to a lesser
degree.
Instead, try to compensate for the impedance mismatch between the load
balancer and NUMA balancing by only ever considering a lesser loaded
node as a destination for NUMA balancing, regardless of whether the
task is trying to move to the preferred node, or to another node.
This patch also addresses the issue that a system with a single
runnable thread would never migrate that thread to near its memory,
introduced by 095bebf61a ("sched/numa: Do not move past the balance
point if unbalanced").
A test where the main thread creates a large memory area, and spawns a
worker thread to iterate over the memory (placed on another node by
select_task_rq_fair), after which the main thread goes to sleep and
waits for the worker thread to loop over all the memory now sees the
worker thread migrated to where the memory is, instead of having all
the memory migrated over like before.
Jirka has run a number of performance tests on several systems: single
instance SpecJBB 2005 performance is 7-15% higher on a 4 node system,
with higher gains on systems with more cores per socket.
Multi-instance SpecJBB 2005 (one per node), linpack, and stream see
little or no changes with the revert of 095bebf61a and this patch.

Instead, the thread would remain where it was, and pull all the memory
across to its location, which is much slower than just migrating the
thread to where the memory is.
The next patch has a better fix for the issue that 095bebf61a tried
to address.

The optimized task selection logic optimistically selects a new task
to run without first doing a full put_prev_task(). This is so that we
can avoid a put/set on the common ancestors of the old and new task.
Similarly, we should only call check_cfs_rq_runtime() to throttle
eligible groups if they're part of the common ancestry, otherwise it
is possible to end up with no eligible task in the simple task
selection.
Imagine:
/root
/prev /next
/A /B
If our optimistic selection ends up throttling /next, we goto simple
and our put_prev_task() ends up throttling /prev, after which we're
going to bug out in set_next_entity() because there aren't any tasks
left.
Avoid this scenario by only throttling common ancestors.

Since function tracing disables preemption, it needs a safe preemption
point to use when preemption is re-enabled without worrying about tracing
recursion. Ie: to avoid tracing recursion, that preemption point can't
be traced (use of notrace qualifier) and it can't call any traceable
function before that preemption point disables preemption itself, which
disarms the recursion.
preempt_schedule() was fine until commit:
b30f0e3ffe ("sched/preempt: Optimize preemption operations on __schedule() callers")
because PREEMPT_ACTIVE (which has the property to disable preemption
and this disarm tracing preemption recursion) was set before calling
any further function.
But that commit introduced the use of preempt_count_add/sub() functions
to set PREEMPT_ACTIVE and because these functions are called before
preemption gets a chance to be disabled, we have a tracing recursion.
preempt_schedule_context() is one of the possible preemption functions
used by tracing. Its special purpose is to avoid tracing recursion
against context tracking. Lets enhance this function to become more
generally tracing safe by disabling preemption with raw accessors, such
that no function is called before preemption gets disabled and disarm
the tracing recursion.
This function is going to become the specific tracing-safe preemption
point in further commit.

The lock_class iteration of /proc/lock_stat is not serialized against
the lockdep_free_key_range() call from module unload.
Therefore it can happen that we find a class of which ->name/->key are
no longer valid.
There is a further bug in zap_class() that left ->name dangling. Cure
this. Use RCU_INIT_POINTER() because NULL.
Since lockdep_free_key_range() is rcu_sched serialized, we can read
both ->name and ->key under rcu_read_lock_sched() (preempt-disable)
and be assured that if we observe a !NULL value it stays safe to use
for as long as we hold that lock.
If we observe both NULL, skip the entry.

In the functions compat_get_bitmap() and compat_put_bitmap() the
variable nr_compat_longs stores how many compat_ulong_t words should be
copied in a loop.
The copy loop itself is this:
if (nr_compat_longs-- > 0) {
if (__get_user(um, umask)) return -EFAULT;
} else {
um = 0;
}
Since nr_compat_longs gets unconditionally decremented in each loop and
since it's type is unsigned this could theoretically lead to out of
bounds accesses to userspace if nr_compat_longs wraps around to
(unsigned)(-1).
Although the callers currently do not trigger out-of-bounds accesses, we
should better implement the loop in a safe way to completely avoid such
warp-arounds.

Normally the program attachment place (like sockets, qdiscs) takes
care of rcu protection and calls bpf_prog_put() after a grace period.
The programs stored inside prog_array may not be attached anywhere,
so prog_array needs to take care of preserving rcu protection.
Otherwise bpf_tail_call() will race with bpf_prog_put().
To solve that introduce bpf_prog_put_rcu() helper function and use
it in 3 places where unattached program can decrement refcnt:
closing program fd, deleting/replacing program in prog_array.

The tracing_off_permanent() call is a way to disable all ring_buffers.
Nothing uses it and nothing should use it, as tracing_off() and
friends are better, as they disable the ring buffers related to
tracing. The tracing_off_permanent() even disabled non tracing
ring buffers. This is a bit drastic, and was added to handle NMIs
doing outputs that could corrupt the ring buffer when only tracing
used them. It is now obsolete and adds a little overhead, it should
be removed.
Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
Currently, if an NMI does a dump of a ring buffer, it disables
all ring buffers from ever doing any writes again. This is because
it wont take the locks for the cpu_buffer and this can cause
corruption if it preempted a read, or a read happens on another
CPU for the current cpu buffer. This is a bit overkill.
First, it should at least try to take the lock, and if it fails
then disable it. Also, there's no need to disable all ring
buffers, even those that are unrelated to what is being read.
Only disable the per cpu ring buffer that is being read if
it can not get the lock for it.

There's no need to require an ifdef over the declaration
of sig_enforce as IS_ENABLED() can be used. While at it,
there's no harm in exposing this kernel parameter outside of
CONFIG_MODULE_SIG as it'd be a no-op on non module sig
kernels.
Now, technically we should in theory be able to remove
the #ifdef'ery over the declaration of the module parameter
as we are also trusting the bool_enable_only code for
CONFIG_MODULE_SIG kernels but for now remain paranoid
and keep it.
With time if no one can put a bullet through bool_enable_only
and if there are no technical requirements over not exposing
CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_FORCE with the measures in place by
bool_enable_only we could remove this last ifdef.

__module_address() does an initial bound check before doing the
{list/tree} iteration to find the actual module. The bound variables
are nowhere near the mod_tree cacheline, in fact they're nowhere near
one another.
module_addr_min lives in .data while module_addr_max lives in .bss
(smarty pants GCC thinks the explicit 0 assignment is a mistake).
Rectify this by moving the two variables into a structure together
with the latch_tree_root to guarantee they all share the same
cacheline and avoid hitting two extra cachelines for the lookup.
While reworking the bounds code, move the bound update from allocation
to insertion time, this avoids updating the bounds for a few error
paths.

Currently __module_address() is using a linear search through all
modules in order to find the module corresponding to the provided
address. With a lot of modules this can take a lot of time.
One of the users of this is kernel_text_address() which is employed
in many stack unwinders; which in turn are used by perf-callchain and
ftrace (possibly from NMI context).
So by optimizing __module_address() we optimize many stack unwinders
which are used by both perf and tracing in performance sensitive code.

Currently the RCU usage in module is an inconsistent mess of RCU and
RCU-sched, this is broken for CONFIG_PREEMPT where synchronize_rcu()
does not imply synchronize_sched().
Most usage sites use preempt_{dis,en}able() which is RCU-sched, but
(most of) the modification sites use synchronize_rcu(). With the
exception of the module bug list, which actually uses RCU.
Convert everything over to RCU-sched.
Furthermore add lockdep asserts to all sites, because it's not at all

The current rcutorture testing does not do any cleanup operations.
This works because the srcu_struct is statically allocated, but it
does represent a memory leak of the associated dynamically allocated
->per_cpu_ref per-CPU variables. However, rcutorture currently uses
a statically allocated srcu_struct, which cannot legally be passed to
cleanup_srcu_struct(). Therefore, this commit adds a second form
of srcu (called srcud) that dynamically allocates and frees the
associated per-CPU variables. This commit also adds a ->cleanup()
member to rcu_torture_ops that is invoked at the end of the test,
after ->cb_barriers(). This ->cleanup() pointer is NULL for all
existing tests, and thus only used for scrud. Finally, the SRCU-P
torture-test configuration selects scrud instead of srcu, with SRCU-N
continuing to use srcu, thereby testing both static and dynamic
srcu_struct structures.

N-1 reader kthreads, where N is the number of CPUs. This avoids
rcutorture-induced stalls, but also avoids heavier levels of torture.
This commit therefore allows negative values of rcutorture.nreaders
to specify larger numbers of reader kthreads, so that for example
rcutorture.nreaders=-2 provisions N kthreads and rcutorture.nreaders=-5
provisions N+3 kthreads.

If, at the time __rcu_process_callbacks() is invoked, there are callbacks
in Tiny RCU's callback list, but none of them are ready to be invoked,
the current list-management code will knit the non-ready callbacks out
of the list. This can result in hangs and possibly worse. This commit
therefore inserts a check for there being no callbacks that can be
invoked immediately.
This bug is unlikely to occur -- you have to get a new callback between
the time rcu_sched_qs() or rcu_bh_qs() was called, but before we get to
__rcu_process_callbacks(). It was detected by the addition of RCU-bh
testing to rcutorture, which in turn was instigated by Iftekhar Ahmed's
mutation testing. Although this bug was made much more likely by
915e8a4fe4 (rcu: Remove fastpath from __rcu_process_callbacks()), this
did not cause the bug, but rather made it much more probable. That
said, it takes more than 40 hours of rcutorture testing, on average,
for this bug to appear, so this fix cannot be considered an emergency.

In certain circumstances it may not be possible to schedule particular
events due to constraints other than a lack of hardware counters (e.g.
on big.LITTLE systems where CPUs support different events). The core
perf event code does not distinguish these cases and pessimistically
assumes that any failure to schedule an event means that it is not worth
attempting to schedule later events, even if some hardware counters are
still unused.
When an event a pmu cannot schedule exists in a flexible group list it
can unnecessarily prevent event groups following it in the list from
being scheduled (until it is rotated to the end of the list). This means
some events are scheduled for only a portion of the time they could be,
and for short running programs no events may be scheduled if the list is
initially sorted in an unfortunate order.
This patch adds a new (optional) filter_match function pointer to struct
pmu which a pmu driver can use to tell perf core when an event matches
pmu-specific scheduling requirements. This plugs into the existing
event_filter_match logic, and makes it possible to avoid the scheduling
problem described above. When no filter is provided by the PMU, the
existing behaviour is retained.

trace_printk() can now be used within the ring buffer to record changes
done by an instance into the main ring buffer. The recursion checks
will prevent the trace_printk() itself from causing recursive issues

checks wont prevent the trace_printk() from recording other ring buffers.

The cgroup side of threadgroup locking uses signal_struct->group_rwsem
to synchronize against threadgroup changes. This per-process rwsem
adds small overhead to thread creation, exit and exec paths, forces
cgroup code paths to do lock-verify-unlock-retry dance in a couple
places and makes it impossible to atomically perform operations across
multiple processes.
This patch replaces signal_struct->group_rwsem with a global
percpu_rwsem cgroup_threadgroup_rwsem which is cheaper on the reader
side and contained in cgroups proper. This patch converts one-to-one.
This does make writer side heavier and lower the granularity; however,
cgroup process migration is a fairly cold path, we do want to optimize
thread operations over it and cgroup migration operations don't take

threadgroup_change_begin/end() are used to mark the beginning and end
of threadgroup modifying operations to allow code paths which require
a threadgroup to stay stable across blocking operations to synchronize
against those sections using threadgroup_lock/unlock().
It's currently implemented as a general mechanism in sched.h using
per-signal_struct rwsem; however, this never grew non-cgroup use cases
and becomes noop if !CONFIG_CGROUPS. It turns out that cgroups is
gonna be better served with a different sycnrhonization scheme and is
a bit silly to keep cgroups specific details as a general mechanism.
What's general here is identifying the places where threadgroups are
modified. This patch restructures threadgroup locking so that
threadgroup_change_begin/end() become a place where subsystems which
need to sycnhronize against threadgroup changes can hook into.
cgroup_threadgroup_change_begin/end() which operate on the
per-signal_struct rwsem are created and threadgroup_lock/unlock() are
moved to cgroup.c and made static.
This is pure reorganization which doesn't cause any functional

This patch series introduces a new function
u32 ktime_get_resolution_ns(void)
which allows to clean up some driver code.
In particular the IIO subsystem has a function to provide timestamps for
events but no means to get their resolution. So currently the dht11 driver
tries to guess the resolution in a rather messy and convoluted way. We
can do much better with the new code.
This API is not designed to be exposed to user space.
This has been tested on i386, sunxi and mxs.

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)

attrs-installation is a short operation, so this change will no cause any

Two watchdog changes that came through different trees had a non

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.

static code checking was unhappy with:
./kernel/sched/fair.c:162 WARNING: return of wrong type
int != unsigned int
get_update_sysctl_factor() is declared to return int but is
currently returning an unsigned int. The first few preprocessed
lines are:
static int get_update_sysctl_factor(void)
{
unsigned int cpus = ({ int __min1 = (cpumask_weight(cpu_online_mask));
int __min2 = (8); __min1 < __min2 ? __min1: __min2; });
unsigned int factor;
The type used by min_t() should be 'unsigned int' and the return type
of get_update_sysctl_factor() should also be 'unsigned int' as its
call-site update_sysctl() is expecting 'unsigned int' and the values
utilizing:
'factor'
'sysctl_sched_min_granularity'
'sched_nr_latency'
'sysctl_sched_wakeup_granularity'
... are also all 'unsigned int', plus cpumask_weight() is also
returning 'unsigned int'.
So the natural type to use around here is 'unsigned int'.
( Patch was compile tested with x86_64_defconfig +
CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG=y and the changed sections in

At the same time, remove direct invocations of idle_set_state()

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.

2) Two changes were both adding new members to codel params

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.

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.

We can now remove exposure of two internal classic BPF functions

and no in-tree module was using it, therefore remove it.

"The newly added ftrace_print_array_seq() function had a bug in it.
Luckily, the only user of it didn't make the 4.1 merge window.
But the helper function should be fixed before 4.2 when the users

The module notifier call chain for MODULE_STATE_COMING was moved up before
the parsing of args, into the complete_formation() call. But if the module failed
to load after that, the notifier call chain for MODULE_STATE_GOING was
never called and that prevented the users of those call chains from
cleaning up anything that was allocated.

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.

It was also found that this change produced a much bigger performance
improvement in the newer IvyBridge-EX chip and was essentially to close
the performance gap between the ticket spinlock and queued spinlock.
The disk workload of the AIM7 benchmark was run on a 4-socket
Westmere-EX machine with both ext4 and xfs RAM disks at 3000 users
on a 3.14 based kernel. The results of the test runs were:

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.
