docs: rewrite admin-guide/sysctl/abi.rst
Following the structure used in sysctl/kernel.rst, this updates abi.rst to use ReStructured Text more fully and updates the entries to match current kernels: * the list of files is now the table of contents; * links are used to point to other documentation and other sections; * all the existing entries are no longer present, so this removes them; * document vsyscall32. Mentions of the kernel version are dropped. Since the document is entirely rewritten, I've replaced the copyright statement.

xfs: deprecate the V4 format
The V4 filesystem format contains known weaknesses in the on-disk format that make metadata verification diffiult. In addition, the format does not support dates past 2038 and will not be upgraded to do so. We should start the process of retiring the old format to close off attack surfaces and to encourage users to migrate onto V5. Therefore, make XFS V4 support a configurable option. For the first period it will be default Y in case some distributors want to withdraw support early; for the second period it will be default N so that anyone who wishes to continue support can do so; and after that, support will be removed from the kernel. Dates for these events have been added to the upstream kernel. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.

printk: ringbuffer: add finalization/extension support
Add support for extending the newest data block. For this, introduce a new finalization state (desc_finalized) denoting a committed descriptor that cannot be extended. Until a record is finalized, a writer can reopen that record to append new data. Reopening a record means transitioning from the desc_committed state back to the desc_reserved state. A writer can explicitly finalize a record if there is no intention of extending it. Also, records are automatically finalized when a new record is reserved. This relieves writers of needing to explicitly finalize while also making such records available to readers sooner. (Readers can only traverse finalized records.) Four new memory barrier pairs are introduced. Two of them are insignificant additions (data_realloc:A/desc_read:D and data_realloc:A/data_push_tail:B) because they are alternate path memory barriers that exactly match the purpose, pairing, and context of the two existing memory barrier pairs they provide an alternate path for. The other two new memory barrier pairs are significant additions: desc_reopen_last:A / _prb_commit:B - When reopening a descriptor, ensure the state transitions back to desc_reserved before fully trusting the descriptor data. _prb_commit:B / desc_reserve:D - When committing a descriptor, ensure the state transitions to desc_committed before checking the head ID to see if the descriptor needs to be finalized.

Rather than deriving the state by evaluating bits within the flags area of the state variable, assign the states explicit values and set those values in the flags area.

To quote the TODO of this driver: -------------------------------------------------------------- The driver is deprecated and scheduled for removal by the end of 2020. In order to prevent removal the following actions would have to be taken: - clean up the code - convert to the vb2 framework - fix the disconnect and free-on-last-user handling (i.e., add a release callback for struct v4l2_device and rework the code to use that correctly). -------------------------------------------------------------- Nobody picked this up, so it's time to retire this driver.

dma-contiguous: provide the ability to reserve per-numa CMA
Right now, drivers like ARM SMMU are using dma_alloc_coherent() to get coherent DMA buffers to save their command queues and page tables. As there is only one default CMA in the whole system, SMMUs on nodes other than node0 will get remote memory. This leads to significant latency. This patch provides per-numa CMA so that drivers like SMMU can get local memory. Tests show localizing CMA can decrease dma_unmap latency much. For instance, before this patch, SMMU on node2 has to wait for more than 560ns for the completion of CMD_SYNC in an empty command queue; with this patch, it needs 240ns only. A positive side effect of this patch would be improving performance even further for those users who are worried about performance more than DMA security and use iommu.passthrough=1 to skip IOMMU. With local CMA, all drivers can get local coherent DMA buffers. Also, this patch changes the default CONFIG_CMA_AREAS to 19 in NUMA. As 1+CONFIG_CMA_AREAS should be quite enough for most servers on the market even they enable both hugetlb_cma and pernuma_cma. 2 numa nodes: 2(hugetlb) + 2(pernuma) + 1(default global cma) = 5 4 numa nodes: 4(hugetlb) + 4(pernuma) + 1(default global cma) = 9 8 numa nodes: 8(hugetlb) + 8(pernuma) + 1(default global cma) = 17 Signed-off-by: Barry Song <song.bao.hua@hisilicon.com> Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> |

rcutorture: Allow pointer leaks to test diagnostic code
This commit adds an rcutorture.leakpointer module parameter that intentionally leaks an RCU-protected pointer out of the RCU read-side critical section and checks to see if the corresponding grace period has elapsed, emitting a WARN_ON_ONCE() if so. This module parameter can be used to test facilities like CONFIG_RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD that end grace periods quickly. While in the area, also document rcutorture.irqreader, which was previously left out. Reported-by Jann Horn <jannh@google.com> Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org> |

rcu: Provide optional RCU-reader exit delay for strict GPs
The goal of this series is to increase the probability of tools like KASAN detecting that an RCU-protected pointer was used outside of its RCU read-side critical section. Thus far, the approach has been to make grace periods and callback processing happen faster. Another approach is to delay the pointer leaker. This commit therefore allows a delay to be applied to exit from RCU read-side critical sections. This slowdown is specified by a new rcutree.rcu_unlock_delay kernel boot parameter that specifies this delay in microseconds, defaulting to zero.

lib: Add backtrace_idle parameter to force backtrace of idle CPUs
Currently, the nmi_cpu_backtrace() declines to produce backtraces for idle CPUs. This is a good choice in the common case in which problems are caused only by non-idle CPUs. However, there are occasionally situations in which idle CPUs are helping to cause problems. This commit therefore adds an nmi_backtrace.backtrace_idle kernel boot parameter that causes nmi_cpu_backtrace() to dump stacks even of idle CPUs. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

ext4: limit the length of per-inode prealloc list
In the scenario of writing sparse files, the per-inode prealloc list may be very long, resulting in high overhead for ext4_mb_use_preallocated(). To circumvent this problem, we limit the maximum length of per-inode prealloc list to 512 and allow users to modify it. After patching, we observed that the sys ratio of cpu has dropped, and the system throughput has increased significantly. We created a process to write the sparse file, and the running time of the process on the fixed kernel was significantly reduced, as follows: Running time on unfixed kernel: [root@TENCENT64 ~]# time taskset 0x01 ./sparse /data1/sparce.dat real 0m2.051s user 0m0.008s sys 0m2.026s Running time on fixed kernel: [root@TENCENT64 ~]# time taskset 0x01 ./sparse /data1/sparce.dat real 0m0.471s user 0m0.004s sys 0m0.395s Signed-off-by: Chunguang Xu <brookxu@tencent.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/d7a98178-056b-6db5-6bce-4ead23f4a257@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu> |

coredump: add %f for executable filename
The document reads "%e" should be "executable filename" while actually it could be changed by things like pr_ctl PR_SET_NAME. People who uses "%e" in core_pattern get surprised when they find out they get thread name instead of executable filename. This is either a bug of document or a bug of code. Since the behavior of "%e" is there for long time, it could bring another surprise for users if we "fix" the code. So we just "fix" the document. And more, for users who really need the "executable filename" in core_pattern, we introduce a new "%f" for the real executable filename. We already have "%E" for executable path in kernel, so just reuse most of its code for the new added "%f" format.

mm: proactive compaction
For some applications, we need to allocate almost all memory as hugepages. However, on a running system, higher-order allocations can fail if the memory is fragmented. Linux kernel currently does on-demand compaction as we request more hugepages, but this style of compaction incurs very high latency. Experiments with one-time full memory compaction (followed by hugepage allocations) show that kernel is able to restore a highly fragmented memory state to a fairly compacted memory state within <1 sec for a 32G system. Such data suggests that a more proactive compaction can help us allocate a large fraction of memory as hugepages keeping allocation latencies low. For a more proactive compaction, the approach taken here is to define a new sysctl called 'vm.compaction_proactiveness' which dictates bounds for external fragmentation which kcompactd tries to maintain. The tunable takes a value in range [0, 100], with a default of 20. Note that a previous version of this patch [1] was found to introduce too many tunables (per-order extfrag{low, high}), but this one reduces them to just one sysctl. Also, the new tunable is an opaque value instead of asking for specific bounds of "external fragmentation", which would have been difficult to estimate. The internal interpretation of this opaque value allows for future fine-tuning. Currently, we use a simple translation from this tunable to [low, high] "fragmentation score" thresholds (low=100-proactiveness, high=low+10%). The score for a node is defined as weighted mean of per-zone external fragmentation. A zone's present_pages determines its weight. To periodically check per-node score, we reuse per-node kcompactd threads, which are woken up every 500 milliseconds to check the same. If a node's score exceeds its high threshold (as derived from user-provided proactiveness value), proactive compaction is started until its score reaches its low threshold value. By default, proactiveness is set to 20, which implies threshold values of low=80 and high=90. This patch is largely based on ideas from Michal Hocko [2]. See also the LWN article [3]. Performance data ================ System: x64_64, 1T RAM, 80 CPU threads. Kernel: 5.6.0-rc3 + this patch echo madvise | sudo tee /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled echo madvise | sudo tee /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/defrag Before starting the driver, the system was fragmented from a userspace program that allocates all memory and then for each 2M aligned section, frees 3/4 of base pages using munmap. The workload is mainly anonymous userspace pages, which are easy to move around. I intentionally avoided unmovable pages in this test to see how much latency we incur when hugepage allocations hit direct compaction. 1. Kernel hugepage allocation latencies With the system in such a fragmented state, a kernel driver then allocates as many hugepages as possible and measures allocation latency: (all latency values are in microseconds) - With vanilla 5.6.0-rc3 percentile latency –––––––––– ––––––– 5 7894 10 9496 25 12561 30 15295 40 18244 50 21229 60 27556 75 30147 80 31047 90 32859 95 33799 Total 2M hugepages allocated = 383859 (749G worth of hugepages out of 762G total free => 98% of free memory could be allocated as hugepages) - With 5.6.0-rc3 + this patch, with proactiveness=20 sysctl -w vm.compaction_proactiveness=20 percentile latency –––––––––– ––––––– 5 2 10 2 25 3 30 3 40 3 50 4 60 4 75 4 80 4 90 5 95 429 Total 2M hugepages allocated = 384105 (750G worth of hugepages out of 762G total free => 98% of free memory could be allocated as hugepages) 2. JAVA heap allocation In this test, we first fragment memory using the same method as for (1). Then, we start a Java process with a heap size set to 700G and request the heap to be allocated with THP hugepages. We also set THP to madvise to allow hugepage backing of this heap. /usr/bin/time java -Xms700G -Xmx700G -XX:+UseTransparentHugePages -XX:+AlwaysPreTouch The above command allocates 700G of Java heap using hugepages. - With vanilla 5.6.0-rc3 17.39user 1666.48system 27:37.89elapsed - With 5.6.0-rc3 + this patch, with proactiveness=20 8.35user 194.58system 3:19.62elapsed Elapsed time remains around 3:15, as proactiveness is further increased. Note that proactive compaction happens throughout the runtime of these workloads. The situation of one-time compaction, sufficient to supply hugepages for following allocation stream, can probably happen for more extreme proactiveness values, like 80 or 90. In the above Java workload, proactiveness is set to 20. The test starts with a node's score of 80 or higher, depending on the delay between the fragmentation step and starting the benchmark, which gives more-or-less time for the initial round of compaction. As t he benchmark consumes hugepages, node's score quickly rises above the high threshold (90) and proactive compaction starts again, which brings down the score to the low threshold level (80). Repeat. bpftrace also confirms proactive compaction running 20+ times during the runtime of this Java benchmark. kcompactd threads consume 100% of one of the CPUs while it tries to bring a node's score within thresholds. Backoff behavior ================ Above workloads produce a memory state which is easy to compact. However, if memory is filled with unmovable pages, proactive compaction should essentially back off. To test this aspect: - Created a kernel driver that allocates almost all memory as hugepages followed by freeing first 3/4 of each hugepage. - Set proactiveness=40 - Note that proactive_compact_node() is deferred maximum number of times with HPAGE_FRAG_CHECK_INTERVAL_MSEC of wait between each check (=> ~30 seconds between retries).

Percpu memory can represent a noticeable chunk of the total memory consumption, especially on big machines with many CPUs. Let's track percpu memory usage for each memcg and display it in memory.stat. A percpu allocation is usually scattered over multiple pages (and nodes), and can be significantly smaller than a page. So let's add a byte-sized counter on the memcg level: MEMCG_PERCPU_B. Byte-sized vmstat infra created for slabs can be perfectly reused for percpu case.

cpufreq: intel_pstate: Implement passive mode with HWP enabled
Allow intel_pstate to work in the passive mode with HWP enabled and make it set the HWP minimum performance limit (HWP floor) to the P-state value given by the target frequency supplied by the cpufreq governor, so as to prevent the HWP algorithm and the CPU scheduler from working against each other, at least when the schedutil governor is in use, and update the intel_pstate documentation accordingly. Among other things, this allows utilization clamps to be taken into account, at least to a certain extent, when intel_pstate is in use and makes it more likely that sufficient capacity for deadline tasks will be provided. After this change, the resulting behavior of an HWP system with intel_pstate in the passive mode should be close to the behavior of the analogous non-HWP system with intel_pstate in the passive mode, except that the HWP algorithm is generally allowed to make the CPU run at a frequency above the floor P-state set by intel_pstate in the entire available range of P-states, while without HWP a CPU can run in a P-state above the requested one if the latter falls into the range of turbo P-states (referred to as the turbo range) or if the P-states of all CPUs in one package are coordinated with each other at the hardware level. [Note that in principle the HWP floor may not be taken into account by the processor if it falls into the turbo range, in which case the processor has a license to choose any P-state, either below or above the HWP floor, just like a non-HWP processor in the case when the target P-state falls into the turbo range.] With this change applied, intel_pstate in the passive mode assumes complete control over the HWP request MSR and concurrent changes of that MSR (eg. via the direct MSR access interface) are overridden by it.

Tracing updates for 5.9
- The biggest news in that the tracing ring buffer can now time events that interrupted other ring buffer events. Before this change, if an interrupt came in while recording another event, and that interrupt also had an event, those events would all have the same time stamp as the event it interrupted. Now, with the new design, those events will have a unique time stamp and rightfully display the time for those events that were recorded while interrupting another event. - Bootconfig how has an "override" operator that lets the users have a default config, but then add options to override the default. - A fix was made to properly filter function graph tracing to the ftrace PIDs.

mm, slub: extend slub_debug syntax for multiple blocks
Patch series "slub_debug fixes and improvements". The slub_debug kernel boot parameter can either apply a single set of options to all caches or a list of caches. There is a use case where debugging is applied for all caches and then disabled at runtime for specific caches, for performance and memory consumption reasons [1]. As runtime changes are dangerous, extend the boot parameter syntax so that multiple blocks of either global or slab-specific options can be specified, with blocks delimited by ';'. This will also support the use case of [1] without runtime changes. For details see the updated Documentation/vm/slub.rst [1] https://lore.kernel.org/r/1383cd32-1ddc-4dac-b5f8-9c42282fa81c@codeaurora.org [weiyongjun1@huawei.com: make parse_slub_debug_flags() static] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200702150522.4940-1-weiyongjun1@huawei.com Signed-off-by: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Reviewed-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Cc: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz> Cc: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux.com> Cc: Jann Horn <jannh@google.com> Cc: Roman Gushchin <guro@fb.com> Cc: Vijayanand Jitta <vjitta@codeaurora.org> Cc: Pekka Enberg <penberg@kernel.org> Cc: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Cc: Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim@lge.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200610163135.17364-2-vbabka@suse.cz Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> |

powerpc updates for 5.9
- Add support for (optionally) using queued spinlocks & rwlocks. - Support for a new faster system call ABI using the scv instruction on Power9 or later. - Drop support for the PROT_SAO mmap/mprotect flag as it will be unsupported on Power10 and future processors, leaving us with no way to implement the functionality it requests. This risks breaking userspace, though we believe it is unused in practice. - A bug fix for, and then the removal of, our custom stack expansion checking. We now allow stack expansion up to the rlimit, like other architectures. - Remove the remnants of our (previously disabled) topology update code, which tried to react to NUMA layout changes on virtualised systems, but was prone to crashes and other problems. - Add PMU support for Power10 CPUs. - A change to our signal trampoline so that we don't unbalance the link stack (branch return predictor) in the signal delivery path. - Lots of other cleanups, refactorings, smaller features and so on as usual.

ext4: use generic names for generic ioctls
Don't define EXT4_IOC_* aliases to ioctls that already have a generic FS_IOC_* name. These aliases are unnecessary, and they make it unclear which ioctls are ext4-specific and which are generic. Exception: leave EXT4_IOC_GETVERSION_OLD and EXT4_IOC_SETVERSION_OLD as-is for now, since renaming them to FS_IOC_GETVERSION and FS_IOC_SETVERSION would probably make them more likely to be confused with EXT4_IOC_GETVERSION and EXT4_IOC_SETVERSION which also exist.

Driver core changes for 5.9-rc1
Here is the "big" set of changes to the driver core, and some drivers using the changes, for 5.9-rc1. "Biggest" thing in here is the device link exposure in sysfs, to help to tame the madness that is SoC device tree representations and driver interactions with it. Other stuff in here that is interesting is: - device probe log helper so that drivers can report problems in a unified way easier. - devres functions added - DEVICE_ATTR_ADMIN_* macro added to make it harder to write incorrect sysfs file permissions - documentation cleanups - ability for debugfs to be present in the kernel, yet not exposed to userspace. Needed for systems that want it enabled, but do not trust users, so they can still use some kernel functions that were otherwise disabled. - other minor fixes and cleanups The patches outside of drivers/base/ all have acks from the respective subsystem maintainers to go through this tree instead of theirs. All of these have been in linux-next with no reported issues.

Support for FSGSBASE. Almost 5 years after the first RFC to support it,
this has been brought into a shape which is maintainable and actually works. This final version was done by Sasha Levin who took it up after Intel dropped the ball. Sasha discovered that the SGX (sic!) offerings out there ship rogue kernel modules enabling FSGSBASE behind the kernels back which opens an instantanious unpriviledged root hole. The FSGSBASE instructions provide a considerable speedup of the context switch path and enable user space to write GSBASE without kernel interaction. This enablement requires careful handling of the exception entries which go through the paranoid entry path as they cannot longer rely on the assumption that user GSBASE is positive (as enforced via prctl() on non FSGSBASE enabled systemn). All other entries (syscalls, interrupts and exceptions) can still just utilize SWAPGS unconditionally when the entry comes from user space. Converting these entries to use FSGSBASE has no benefit as SWAPGS is only marginally slower than WRGSBASE and locating and retrieving the kernel GSBASE value is not a free operation either. The real benefit of RD/WRGSBASE is the avoidance of the MSR reads and writes. The changes come with appropriate selftests and have held up in field testing against the (sanitized) Graphene-SGX driver. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQJHBAABCgAxFiEEQp8+kY+LLUocC4bMphj1TA10mKEFAl8pGnoTHHRnbHhAbGlu dXRyb25peC5kZQAKCRCmGPVMDXSYoTYJD/9873GkwvGcc/Vq/dJH1szGTgFftPyZ c/Y9gzx7EGBPLo25BS820L+ZlynzXHDxExKfCEaD10TZfe5XIc1vYNR0J74M2NmK IBgEDstJeW93ai+rHCFRXIevhpzU4GgGYJ1MeeOgbVMN3aGU1g6HfzMvtF0fPn8Y n6fsLZa43wgnoTdjwjjikpDTrzoZbaL1mbODBzBVPAaTbim7IKKTge6r/iCKrOjz Uixvm3g9lVzx52zidJ9kWa8esmbOM1j0EPe7/hy3qH9DFo87KxEzjHNH3T6gY5t6 NJhRAIfY+YyTHpPCUCshj6IkRudE6w/qjEAmKP9kWZxoJrvPCTWOhCzelwsFS9b9 gxEYfsnaKhsfNhB6fi0PtWlMzPINmEA7SuPza33u5WtQUK7s1iNlgHfvMbjstbwg MSETn4SG2/ZyzUrSC06lVwV8kh0RgM3cENc/jpFfIHD0vKGI3qfka/1RY94kcOCG AeJd0YRSU2RqL7lmxhHyG8tdb8eexns41IzbPCLXX2sF00eKNkVvMRYT2mKfKLFF q8v1x7yuwmODdXfFR6NdCkGm9IU7wtL6wuQ8Nhu9UraFmcXo6X6FLJC18FqcvSb9 jvcRP4XY/8pNjjf44JB8yWfah0xGQsaMIKQGP4yLv4j6Xk1xAQKH1MqcC7l1D2HN 5Z24GibFqSK/vA== =QaAN -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'x86-fsgsbase-2020-08-04' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull x86 fsgsbase from Thomas Gleixner: "Support for FSGSBASE.

The main changes in this cycle were:
- Improve uclamp performance by using a static key for the fast path - Add the "sched_util_clamp_min_rt_default" sysctl, to optimize for better power efficiency of RT tasks on battery powered devices. (The default is to maximize performance & reduce RT latencies.) - Improve utime and stime tracking accuracy, which had a fixed boundary of error, which created larger and larger relative errors as the values become larger. This is now replaced with more precise arithmetics, using the new mul_u64_u64_div_u64() helper in math64.h. - Improve the deadline scheduler, such as making it capacity aware - Improve frequency-invariant scheduling - Misc cleanups in energy/power aware scheduling - Add sched_update_nr_running tracepoint to track changes to nr_running - Documentation additions and updates - Misc cleanups and smaller fixes Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQJFBAABCgAvFiEEBpT5eoXrXCwVQwEKEnMQ0APhK1gFAl8oJDURHG1pbmdvQGtl cm5lbC5vcmcACgkQEnMQ0APhK1ixLg//bqWzFlfWirvngTgDxDnplwUTyKXmMCcq R1IYhlyK2O5FxvhbRmdmW11W3yzyTPvgCs6Q/70negGaPNe2w1OxfxiK9NMKz5eu M1LoXas7pL5g7Pr/ZxxHk/8VqJLV4t9MkodiiInmV6lTaznT3sU6a/kpYQjJyFnG Tuu9jd6JhdRKmePDJnNmUBoGQ7JiOQDcX4HtkcQ3OA+An3624tmJzbW1yts+uj7J ZWo2EY60RfbA9MxQXGPOaR/nAjngWs4Q6tddAh10mftsPq1gR2iFUKju1d31MQt/ RHLdiqJf+AyUC4popKG7a+7ilCKMBwPociSreTJNPyEUQ1X4AM3vUVk4yjUoiDph k2WdsCF8/JRdhXg0NnrpPUqOaAbQj53EeXnitEb92E7WyTZgLOvAtpV//xZo6utp 2QHerfrQ9SoGQjz/ho78za5vQtV1x25yDhd+X4XV4QEhIy85G9/2JCpC/Kc/TXLf OO7A4X69XztKTEJhP60g8ldCPUe4N2vbh1vKY6oAD8AFQVVNZ6n7375/Qa//b0/k ++hcYkPc2EK97/aBFdvzDgqb7aUo7Mtn2ibke16sQU4szulaoRuAHQG4jdGKMwbD dk2VBoxyxeYFXWHsNneSe87+ha3sd0dSN0ul1EB/SlFrVELMvy634YXnMYGW8ima PzyPB0ezpuA= =PbO7 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'sched-core-2020-08-03' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar: - Improve uclamp performance by using a static key for the fast path - Add the "sched_util_clamp_min_rt_default" sysctl, to optimize for better power efficiency of RT tasks on battery powered devices.

arm64 and cross-arch updates for 5.9:
- Removal of the tremendously unpopular read_barrier_depends() barrier, which is a NOP on all architectures apart from Alpha, in favour of allowing architectures to override READ_ONCE() and do whatever dance they need to do to ensure address dependencies provide LOAD -> LOAD/STORE ordering. This work also offers a potential solution if compilers are shown to convert LOAD -> LOAD address dependencies into control dependencies (e.g. under LTO), as weakly ordered architectures will effectively be able to upgrade READ_ONCE() to smp_load_acquire(). The latter case is not used yet, but will be discussed further at LPC. - Make the MSI/IOMMU input/output ID translation PCI agnostic, augment the MSI/IOMMU ACPI/OF ID mapping APIs to accept an input ID bus-specific parameter and apply the resulting changes to the device ID space provided by the Freescale FSL bus. - arm64 support for TLBI range operations and translation table level hints (part of the ARMv8.4 architecture version). - Time namespace support for arm64. - Export the virtual and physical address sizes in vmcoreinfo for makedumpfile and crash utilities. - CPU feature handling cleanups and checks for programmer errors (overlapping bit-fields). - ACPI updates for arm64: disallow AML accesses to EFI code regions and kernel memory. - perf updates for arm64. - Miscellaneous fixes and cleanups, most notably PLT counting optimisation for module loading, recordmcount fix to ignore relocations other than R_AARCH64_CALL26, CMA areas reserved for gigantic pages on 16K and 64K configurations. - Trivial typos, duplicate words. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAABCgAdFiEE5RElWfyWxS+3PLO2a9axLQDIXvEFAl8oTcsACgkQa9axLQDI XvEj6hAAkn39mO5xrR/Vhpg3DyFPk63ZlMSX9SsOeVyaLbovT6stTs1XAZXPpnkt rV3gwACyGSrqH6+uey9pHgHJuPF2TdrGEVK08yVKo9KGW/6yXSIncdKFE4jUJ/WJ wF5j7eMET2aGzcpm5AlzMmq6HOrKB8nZac9H8/x6H+Ox2WdgJkEjOkDvyqACUyum N3FsTZkWj2pIkTXHNgDZ8KjxVLO8HlFaB2hkxFDl9NPlX2UTCQJ8Tg1KiPLafKaK gUvH4usQDFdb5RU/UWogre37J4emO0ZTApZOyju+U+PMMWlWVHjZ4isUIS9zz/AE JNZ23dnKZX2HrYa5p8HZx175zwj/vXUqUHCZPLvQXaAudCEhF8BVljPiG0e80FV5 GHFUgUbylKspp01I/9L+2JvsG96Mr0e+P3Sx7L2HTI42cmtoSa14+MpoSRj7zlft Qcl8hfrVOjCjUnFRHa/1y1cGvnD9GbgnKJR7zgVxl9bD/Jd48r1HUtwRORZCzWFr mRPVbPS72fWxMzMV9DZYJm02jJY9kLX2BMl49njbB8MhAhzOvrMVzoVVtMMeRFLR XHeJpmg36W09FiRGe7LRXlkXIhCQzQG2bJfiphuupCfhjRAitPoq8I925G6Pig60 c8RWaXGU7PrEsdMNrL83vekvGKgqrkoFkRVtsCoQ2X6Hvu/XdYI= =mh79 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'arm64-upstream' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux Pull arm64 and cross-arch updates from Catalin Marinas: "Here's a slightly wider-spread set of updates for 5.9.

The latter case is not used yet, but will be discussed further at LPC. - Make the MSI/IOMMU input/output ID translation PCI agnostic, augment the MSI/IOMMU ACPI/OF ID mapping APIs to accept an input ID bus-specific parameter and apply the resulting changes to the device ID space provided by the Freescale FSL bus. - arm64 support for TLBI range operations and translation table level hints (part of the ARMv8.4 architecture version). - Time namespace support for arm64. - Export the virtual and physical address sizes in vmcoreinfo for makedumpfile and crash utilities. - CPU feature handling cleanups and checks for programmer errors (overlapping bit-fields). - ACPI updates for arm64: disallow AML accesses to EFI code regions and kernel memory. - perf updates for arm64. - Miscellaneous fixes and cleanups, most notably PLT counting optimisation for module loading, recordmcount fix to ignore relocations other than R_AARCH64_CALL26, CMA areas reserved for gigantic pages on 16K and 64K configurations. - Trivial typos, duplicate words" Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200710165203.31284-1-will@kernel.org Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200619082013.13661-1-lorenzo.pieralisi@arm.com * tag 'arm64-upstream' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux: (82 commits) arm64: use IRQ_STACK_SIZE instead of THREAD_SIZE for irq stack arm64/mm: save memory access in check_and_switch_context() fast switch path arm64: sigcontext.h: delete duplicated word arm64: ptrace.h: delete duplicated word arm64: pgtable-hwdef.h: delete duplicated words bus: fsl-mc: Add ACPI support for fsl-mc bus/fsl-mc: Refactor the MSI domain creation in the DPRC driver of/irq: Make of_msi_map_rid() PCI bus agnostic of/irq: make of_msi_map_get_device_domain() bus agnostic dt-bindings: arm: fsl: Add msi-map device-tree binding for fsl-mc bus of/device: Add input id to of_dma_configure() of/iommu: Make of_map_rid() PCI agnostic ACPI/IORT: Add an input ID to acpi_dma_configure() ACPI/IORT: Remove useless PCI bus walk ACPI/IORT: Make iort_msi_map_rid() PCI agnostic ACPI/IORT: Make iort_get_device_domain IRQ domain agnostic ACPI/IORT: Make iort_match_node_callback walk the ACPI namespace for NC arm64: enable time namespace support arm64/vdso: Restrict splitting VVAR VMA arm64/vdso: Handle faults on timens page ... |

fscrypt updates for 5.9
This release, we add support for inline encryption via the blk-crypto framework which was added in 5.8. Now when an ext4 or f2fs filesystem is mounted with '-o inlinecrypt', the contents of encrypted files will be encrypted/decrypted via blk-crypto, instead of directly using the crypto API. This model allows taking advantage of the inline encryption hardware that is integrated into the UFS or eMMC host controllers on most mobile SoCs. Note that this is just an alternate implementation; the ciphertext written to disk stays the same. (This pull request does *not* include support for direct I/O on encrypted files, which blk-crypto makes possible, since that part is still being discussed.) Besides the above feature update, there are also a few fixes and cleanups, e.g. strengthening some memory barriers that may be too weak. All these patches have been in linux-next with no reported issues. I've also tested them with the fscrypt xfstests, as usual. It's also been tested that the inline encryption support works with the support for Qualcomm and Mediatek inline encryption hardware that will be in the scsi pull request for 5.9. Also, several SoC vendors are already using a previous, functionally equivalent version of these patches. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iIoEABYIADIWIQSacvsUNc7UX4ntmEPzXCl4vpKOKwUCXye2EBQcZWJpZ2dlcnNA Z29vZ2xlLmNvbQAKCRDzXCl4vpKOK0veAQCKEnwvy+M6s2/QWhC9vo01rABMtt7h VRAAKPiFzLNH3AD/dCnZNsFUzk3x0ZyiU1YRW3FvlxFOaEO7Ea0Pt/pyyQ0= =g9FK -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'fscrypt-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/fscrypt/fscrypt Pull fscrypt updates from Eric Biggers: "This release, we add support for inline encryption via the blk-crypto framework which was added in 5.8.

powerpc/book3s64/radix: Add kernel command line option to disable radix GTSE
This adds a kernel command line option that can be used to disable GTSE support. Disabling GTSE implies kernel will make hcalls to invalidate TLB entries. This was done so that we can do VM migration between configs that enable/disable GTSE support via hypervisor. To migrate a VM from a system that supports GTSE to a system that doesn't, we can boot the guest with radix_hcall_invalidate=on, thereby forcing the guest to use hcalls for TLB invalidates. The check for hcall availability is done in pSeries_setup_arch so that the panic message appears on the console. This should only happen on a hypervisor that doesn't force the guest to hash translation even though it can't handle the radix GTSE=0 request via CAS. With radix_hcall_invalidate=on if the hypervisor doesn't support hcall_rpt_invalidate hcall it should force the LPAR to hash translation.

debugfs: Add access restriction option
Since debugfs include sensitive information it need to be treated carefully. But it also has many very useful debug functions for userspace. With this option we can have same configuration for system with need of debugfs and a way to turn it off. This gives a extra protection for exposure on systems where user-space services with system access are attacked. It is controlled by a configurable default value that can be override with a kernel command line parameter. (debugfs=) It can be on or off, but also internally on but not seen from user-space. This no-mount mode do not register a debugfs as filesystem, but client can register their parts in the internal structures. This data can be readed with a debugger or saved with a crashkernel. When it is off clients get EPERM error when accessing the functions for registering their components.

blk-cgroup: show global disk stats in root cgroup io.stat
In order to improve consistency and usability in cgroup stat accounting, we would like to support the root cgroup's io.stat. Since the root cgroup has processes doing io even if the system has no explicitly created cgroups, we need to be careful to avoid overhead in that case. For that reason, the rstat algorithms don't handle the root cgroup, so just turning the file on wouldn't give correct statistics. To get around this, we simulate flushing the iostat struct by filling it out directly from global disk stats. The result is a root cgroup io.stat file consistent with both /proc/diskstats and io.stat. Note that in order to collect the disk stats, we needed to iterate over devices. To facilitate that, we had to change the linkage of a disk_type to external so that it can be used from blk-cgroup.c to iterate over disks.

x86/kvm: Add "nopvspin" parameter to disable PV spinlocks
There are cases where a guest tries to switch spinlocks to bare metal behavior (e.g. by setting "xen_nopvspin" on XEN platform and "hv_nopvspin" on HYPER_V). That feature is missed on KVM, add a new parameter "nopvspin" to disable PV spinlocks for KVM guest. The new 'nopvspin' parameter will also replace Xen and Hyper-V specific parameters in future patches. Define variable nopvsin as global because it will be used in future patches as above.

ext4: add inline encryption support
Wire up ext4 to support inline encryption via the helper functions which fs/crypto/ now provides. This includes: - Adding a mount option 'inlinecrypt' which enables inline encryption on encrypted files where it can be used. - Setting the bio_crypt_ctx on bios that will be submitted to an inline-encrypted file. Note: submit_bh_wbc() in fs/buffer.c also needed to be patched for this part, since ext4 sometimes uses ll_rw_block() on file data. - Not adding logically discontiguous data to bios that will be submitted to an inline-encrypted file. - Not doing filesystem-layer crypto on inline-encrypted files.

arm64/crash_core: Export TCR_EL1.T1SZ in vmcoreinfo
TCR_EL1.TxSZ, which controls the VA space size, is configured by a single kernel image to support either 48-bit or 52-bit VA space. If the ARMv8.2-LVA optional feature is present and we are running with a 64KB page size, then it is possible to use 52-bits of address space for both userspace and kernel addresses. However, any kernel binary that supports 52-bit must also be able to fall back to 48-bit at early boot time if the hardware feature is not present. Since TCR_EL1.T1SZ indicates the size of the memory region addressed by TTBR1_EL1, export the same in vmcoreinfo. User-space utilities like makedumpfile and crash-utility need to read this value from vmcoreinfo for determining if a virtual address lies in the linear map range. While at it also add documentation for TCR_EL1.T1SZ variable being added to vmcoreinfo. It indicates the size offset of the memory region addressed by TTBR1_EL1.

crash_core, vmcoreinfo: Append 'MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS' to vmcoreinfo
Right now user-space tools like 'makedumpfile' and 'crash' need to rely on a best-guess method of determining value of 'MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS' supported by underlying kernel. This value is used in user-space code to calculate the bit-space required to store a section for SPARESMEM (similar to the existing calculation method used in the kernel implementation): #define SECTIONS_SHIFT (MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS - SECTION_SIZE_BITS) Now, regressions have been reported in user-space utilities like 'makedumpfile' and 'crash' on arm64, with the recently added kernel support for 52-bit physical address space, as there is no clear method of determining this value in user-space (other than reading kernel CONFIG flags). As per suggestion from makedumpfile maintainer (Kazu), it makes more sense to append 'MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS' to vmcoreinfo in the core code itself rather than in arch-specific code, so that the user-space code for other archs can also benefit from this addition to the vmcoreinfo and use it as a standard way of determining 'SECTIONS_SHIFT' value in user-land. A reference 'makedumpfile' implementation which reads the 'MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS' value from vmcoreinfo in a arch-independent fashion is available here: While at it also update vmcoreinfo documentation for 'MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS' variable being added to vmcoreinfo. 'MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS' defines the maximum supported physical address space memory.

cpufreq: Specify default governor on command line
Currently, the only way to specify the default CPUfreq governor is via Kconfig options, which suits users who can build the kernel themselves perfectly. However, for those who use a distro-like kernel (such as Android, with the Generic Kernel Image project), the only way to use a non-default governor is to boot to userspace, and to then switch using the sysfs interface. Being able to specify the default governor on the command line, like is the case for cpuidle, would allow those users to specify their governor of choice earlier on, and to simplify the userspace boot procedure slighlty. To support this use-case, add a kernel command line parameter allowing the default governor for CPUfreq to be specified, which takes precedence over the built-in default. This implementation has one notable limitation: the default governor must be registered before the driver. This is solved for builtin governors and drivers using appropriate *_initcall() functions. And in the modular case, this must be reflected as a constraint on the module loading order.

cpufreq: intel_pstate: Allow raw energy performance preference value
Currently using attribute "energy_performance_preference", user space can write one of the four per-defined preference string. These preference strings gets mapped to a hard-coded Energy-Performance Preference (EPP) or Energy-Performance Bias (EPB) knob. These four values are supposed to cover broad spectrum of use cases, but are not uniformly distributed in the range. There are number of cases, where this is not enough. For example: Suppose user wants more performance when connected to AC. Instead of using default "balance performance", the "performance" setting can be used. This changes EPP value from 0x80 to 0x00. But setting EPP to 0, results in electrical and thermal issues on some platforms. This results in aggressive throttling, which causes a drop in performance. But some value between 0x80 and 0x00 results in better performance. But that value can't be fixed as the power curve is not linear. In some cases just changing EPP from 0x80 to 0x75 is enough to get significant performance gain. Similarly on battery the default "balance_performance" mode can be aggressive in power consumption. But picking up the next choice "balance power" results in too much loss of performance, which results in bad user experience in use cases like "Google Hangout". It was observed that some value between these two EPP is optimal. This change allows fine grain EPP tuning for platform like Chromebook or for users who wants to fine tune power and performance. Here based on the product and use cases, different EPP values can be set. This change is similar to the change done for: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/power/energy_perf_bias where user has choice to write a predefined string or raw value. The change itself is trivial. When user preference doesn't match predefined string preferences and value is an unsigned integer and in range, use that value for EPP. When the EPP feature is not present writing raw value is not supported.

cpufreq: intel_pstate: Allow enable/disable energy efficiency
By default intel_pstate the driver disables energy efficiency by setting MSR_IA32_POWER_CTL bit 19 for Kaby Lake desktop CPU model in HWP mode. This CPU model is also shared by Coffee Lake desktop CPUs. This allows these systems to reach maximum possible frequency. But this adds power penalty, which some customers don't want. They want some way to enable/ disable dynamically. So, add an additional attribute "energy_efficiency" under /sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate/ for these CPU models. This allows to read and write bit 19 ("Disable Energy Efficiency Optimization") in the MSR IA32_POWER_CTL. This attribute is present in both HWP and non-HWP mode as this has an effect in both modes. Refer to Intel Software Developer's manual for details. The scope of this bit is package wide. Also these systems are single package systems. So read/write MSR on the current CPU is enough. The energy efficiency (EE) bit setting needs to be preserved during suspend/resume and CPU offline/online operation. To do this: - Restoring the EE setting from the cpufreq resume() callback, if there is change from the system default. - By default, don't disable EE from cpufreq init() callback for matching CPU models. Since the scope is package wide and is a single package system, move the disable EE calls from init() callback to intel_pstate_init() function, which is called only once.

torture: Dump ftrace at shutdown only if requested
If there is a large number of torture tests running concurrently, all of which are dumping large ftrace buffers at shutdown time, the resulting dumping can take a very long time, particularly on systems with rotating-rust storage. This commit therefore adds a default-off torture.ftrace_dump_at_shutdown module parameter that enables shutdown-time ftrace-buffer dumping. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org> |

rcutorture: Add races with task-exit processing
Several variants of Linux-kernel RCU interact with task-exit processing, including preemptible RCU, Tasks RCU, and Tasks Trace RCU. This commit therefore adds testing of this interaction to rcutorture by adding rcutorture.read_exit_burst and rcutorture.read_exit_delay kernel-boot parameters. These kernel parameters control the frequency and spacing of special read-then-exit kthreads that are spawned.

refperf: Rename refperf.c to refscale.c and change internal names
This commit further avoids conflation of refperf with the kernel's perf feature by renaming kernel/rcu/refperf.c to kernel/rcu/refscale.c, and also by similarly renaming the functions and variables inside this file. This has the side effect of changing the names of the kernel boot parameters, so kernel-parameters.txt and ver_functions.sh are also updated. The rcutorture --torture type remains refperf, and this will be addressed in a separate commit. Reported-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org> |

rcu/tree: cache specified number of objects
In order to reduce the dynamic need for pages in kfree_rcu(), pre-allocate a configurable number of pages per CPU and link them in a list. When kfree_rcu() reclaims objects, the object's container page is cached into a list instead of being released to the low-level page allocator. Such an approach provides O(1) access to free pages while also reducing the number of requests to the page allocator. It also makes the kfree_rcu() code to have free pages available during a low memory condition. A read-only sysfs parameter (rcu_min_cached_objs) reflects the minimum number of allowed cached pages per CPU. Signed-off-by: Uladzislau Rezki (Sony) <urezki@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

thunderbolt: Add support for on-board retimers
USB4 spec specifies standard access to retimers (both on-board and cable) through USB4 port sideband access. This makes it possible to upgrade their firmware in the same way than we already do with the routers. This enumerates on-board retimers under each USB4 port when the link comes up and adds them to the bus under the router the retimer belongs to. Retimers are exposed in sysfs with name like <device>:<port>.<index> where device is the router the retimer belongs to, port is the USB4 port the retimer is connected to and index is the retimer index under that port (starting from 1). This applies to the upstream USB4 port as well so if there is on-board retimer between the port and the router it is also added accordingly. At this time we do not add cable retimers but there is no techincal restriction to do so in the future if needed. It is not clear whether it makes sense to upgrade their firmwares and at least Thunderbolt 3 cables it has not been done outside of lab environments. The sysfs interface is made to follow the router NVM upgrade to make it easy to extend the existing userspace (fwupd) to handle these as well.

This is equivalent to a full bus lock, which means that many threads running the RNG instructions in parallel have the same effect as the same amount of threads issuing a locked instruction targeting an address which requires locking of two cachelines at once.

panic: add sysctl to dump all CPUs backtraces on oops event
Usually when the kernel reaches an oops condition, it's a point of no return; in case not enough debug information is available in the kernel splat, one of the last resorts would be to collect a kernel crash dump and analyze it. The problem with this approach is that in order to collect the dump, a panic is required (to kexec-load the crash kernel). When in an environment of multiple virtual machines, users may prefer to try living with the oops, at least until being able to properly shutdown their VMs / finish their important tasks. This patch implements a way to collect a bit more debug details when an oops event is reached, by printing all the CPUs backtraces through the usage of NMIs (on architectures that support that). The sysctl added (and documented) here was called "oops_all_cpu_backtrace", and when set will (as the name suggests) dump all CPUs backtraces. Far from ideal, this may be the last option though for users that for some reason cannot panic on oops. Most of times oopses are clear enough to indicate the kernel portion that must be investigated, but in virtual environments it's possible to observe hypervisor/KVM issues that could lead to oopses shown in other guests CPUs (like virtual APIC crashes). This patch hence aims to help debug such complex issues without resorting to kdump. Signed-off-by: Guilherme G.

kernel/watchdog.c: convert {soft/hard}lockup boot parameters to sysctl aliases
After a recent change introduced by Vlastimil's series [0], kernel is able now to handle sysctl parameters on kernel command line; also, the series introduced a simple infrastructure to convert legacy boot parameters (that duplicate sysctls) into sysctl aliases. This patch converts the watchdog parameters softlockup_panic and {hard,soft}lockup_all_cpu_backtrace to use the new alias infrastructure. It fixes the documentation too, since the alias only accepts values 0 or 1, not the full range of integers.

kernel/hung_task convert hung_task_panic boot parameter to sysctl
We can now handle sysctl parameters on kernel command line and have infrastructure to convert legacy command line options that duplicate sysctl to become a sysctl alias. This patch converts the hung_task_panic parameter. Note that the sysctl handler is more strict and allows only 0 and 1, while the legacy parameter allowed any non-zero value. But there is little reason anyone would not be using 1.

kernel/sysctl: support setting sysctl parameters from kernel command line
Patch series "support setting sysctl parameters from kernel command line", v3. This series adds support for something that seems like many people always wanted but nobody added it yet, so here's the ability to set sysctl parameters via kernel command line options in the form of sysctl.vm.something=1 The important part is Patch 1. The second, not so important part is an attempt to clean up legacy one-off parameters that do the same thing as a sysctl. I don't want to remove them completely for compatibility reasons, but with generic sysctl support the idea is to remove the one-off param handlers and treat the parameters as aliases for the sysctl variants. I have identified several parameters that mention sysctl counterparts in Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt but there might be more. The conversion also has varying level of success: - numa_zonelist_order is converted in Patch 2 together with adding the necessary infrastructure. It's easy as it doesn't really do anything but warn on deprecated value these days. - hung_task_panic is converted in Patch 3, but there's a downside that now it only accepts 0 and 1, while previously it was any integer value - nmi_watchdog maps to two sysctls nmi_watchdog and hardlockup_panic, so there's no straighforward conversion possible - traceoff_on_warning is a flag without value and it would be required to handle that somehow in the conversion infractructure, which seems pointless for a single flag This patch (of 5): A recently proposed patch to add vm_swappiness command line parameter in addition to existing sysctl [1] made me wonder why we don't have a general support for passing sysctl parameters via command line. Googling found only somebody else wondering the same [2], but I haven't found any prior discussion with reasons why not to do this. Settings the vm_swappiness issue aside (the underlying issue might be solved in a different way), quick search of kernel-parameters.txt shows there are already some that exist as both sysctl and kernel parameter - hung_task_panic, nmi_watchdog, numa_zonelist_order, traceoff_on_warning. A general mechanism would remove the need to add more of those one-offs and might be handy in situations where configuration by e.g. /etc/sysctl.d/ is impractical. Hence, this patch adds a new parse_args() pass that looks for parameters prefixed by 'sysctl.' and tries to interpret them as writes to the corresponding sys/ files using an temporary in-kernel procfs mount. This mechanism was suggested by Eric W. Biederman [3], as it handles all dynamically registered sysctl tables, even though we don't handle modular sysctls. Errors due to e.g. invalid parameter name or value are reported in the kernel log. The processing is hooked right before the init process is loaded, as some handlers might be more complicated than simple setters and might need some subsystems to be initialized. At the moment the init process can be started and eventually execute a process writing to /proc/sys/ then it should be also fine to do that from the kernel. Sysctls registered later on module load time are not set by this mechanism - it's expected that in such scenarios, setting sysctl values from userspace is practical enough.

kernel: add panic_on_taint
Analogously to the introduction of panic_on_warn, this patch introduces a kernel option named panic_on_taint in order to provide a simple and generic way to stop execution and catch a coredump when the kernel gets tainted by any given flag. This is useful for debugging sessions as it avoids having to rebuild the kernel to explicitly add calls to panic() into the code sites that introduce the taint flags of interest. For instance, if one is interested in proceeding with a post-mortem analysis at the point a given code path is hitting a bad page (i.e. unaccount_page_cache_page(), or slab_bug()), a coredump can be collected by rebooting the kernel with 'panic_on_taint=0x20' amended to the command line. Another, perhaps less frequent, use for this option would be as a means for assuring a security policy case where only a subset of taints, or no single taint (in paranoid mode), is allowed for the running system. The optional switch 'nousertaint' is handy in this particular scenario, as it will avoid userspace induced crashes by writes to sysctl interface /proc/sys/kernel/tainted causing false positive hits for such policies.

- Largest change for this cycle is the DM zoned target's metadata
version 2 feature that adds support for pairing regular block devices with a zoned device to ease performance impact associated with finite random zones of zoned device. Changes came in 3 batches: first prepared for and then added the ability to pair a single regular block device, second was a batch of fixes to improve zoned's reclaim heuristic, third removed the limitation of only adding a single additional regular block device to allow many devices. Testing has shown linear scaling as more devices are added. - Add new emulated block size (ebs) target that emulates a smaller logical_block_size than a block device supports. Primary use-case is to emulate "512e" devices that have 512 byte logical_block_size and 4KB physical_block_size. This is useful to some legacy applications otherwise wouldn't be ablee to be used on 4K devices because they depend on issuing IO in 512 byte granularity. - Add discard interfaces to DM bufio. First consumer of the interface is the dm-ebs target that makes heavy use of dm-bufio. - Fix DM crypt's block queue_limits stacking to not truncate logic_block_size. - Add Documentation for DM integrity's status line. - Switch DMDEBUG from a compile time config option to instead use dynamic debug via pr_debug. - Fix DM multipath target's hueristic for how it manages "queue_if_no_path" state internally. DM multipath now avoids disabling "queue_if_no_path" unless it is actually needed (e.g. in response to configure timeout or explicit "fail_if_no_path" message). This fixes reports of spurious -EIO being reported back to userspace application during fault tolerance testing with an NVMe backend. Added various dynamic DMDEBUG messages to assist with debugging queue_if_no_path in the future. - Add a new DM multipath "Historical Service Time" Path Selector. - Fix DM multipath's dm_blk_ioctl() to switch paths on IO error. - Improve DM writecache target performance by using explicit cache flushing for target's single-threaded usecase and a small cleanup to remove unnecessary test in persistent_memory_claim. - Other small cleanups in DM core, dm-persistent-data, and DM integrity. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQFHBAABCAAxFiEEJfWUX4UqZ4x1O2wixSPxCi2dA1oFAl7alrgTHHNuaXR6ZXJA cmVkaGF0LmNvbQAKCRDFI/EKLZ0DWl42B/9sBd+j60emy4Bliu/f3pd7SEkFrSXv K2jXicRFx4E5kO0aLK+fX65cOiq2vvLsDh8c++0TLXcD9q7oK0qxK9c8TCPq29Cx W2J2dwdjyyqqbr3/FZHYYM9KLOl5rsxJLygXwhJhQ2Gny44L7nVACrAXNzXIHJ3r f8xr+GLdF/jz7WLj8bwEDo3Bf8wvxDvl2ijqj7EceOhTutNE8xHQ6UcTPqTtozJy sNM8UQNk1L43DBAvXfrKZ+yQ5DYAKdXKJpV9C8qv5DEGbaEikuMrHddgO4KlDdp4 VjPk9GSfPwGcJ4ecN8vgecZVGvh52ZU7OZ8qey/q0zqps74jeHTZQQyM =jRun -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'for-5.8/dm-changes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm Pull device mapper updates from Mike Snitzer: - The largest change for this cycle is the DM zoned target's metadata version 2 feature that adds support for pairing regular block devices with a zoned device to ease the performance impact associated with finite random zones of zoned device.

This can be used for security: a process can be granted access to only these lines, for example for industrial control. Another way to use this is to reexpose certain select lines to a virtual machine or container. - Warn if the gpio-line-names is too long in he DT parser core. - GPIO lines can now be looked up by line name in addition to being looked up by offset. New drivers: - A new generic regmap GPIO driver has been merged. Too many regmap drivers are starting to look like each other so we need to create some common ground and try to move drivers over to using that. - The F7188X driver now supports F81865.

mm: allow swappiness that prefers reclaiming anon over the file workingset
With the advent of fast random IO devices (SSDs, PMEM) and in-memory swap devices such as zswap, it's possible for swap to be much faster than filesystems, and for swapping to be preferable over thrashing filesystem caches. Allow setting swappiness - which defines the rough relative IO cost of cache misses between page cache and swap-backed pages - to reflect such situations by making the swap-preferred range configurable.

hugetlbfs: clean up command line processing
With all hugetlb page processing done in a single file clean up code. - Make code match desired semantics - Update documentation with semantics - Make all warnings and errors messages start with 'HugeTLB:'. - Consistently name command line parsing routines. - Warn if !hugepages_supported() and command line parameters have been specified. - Add comments to code - Describe some of the subtle interactions - Describe semantics of command line arguments This patch also fixes issues with implicitly setting the number of gigantic huge pages to preallocate. Previously on X86 command line, hugepages=2 default_hugepagesz=1G would result in zero 1G pages being preallocated and, # grep HugePages_Total /proc/meminfo HugePages_Total: 0 # sysctl -a | grep nr_hugepages vm.nr_hugepages = 2 vm.nr_hugepages_mempolicy = 2 # cat /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages 2 After this patch 2 gigantic pages will be preallocated and all the proc, sysfs, sysctl and meminfo files will accurately reflect this. To address the issue with gigantic pages, a small change in behavior was made to command line processing. Previously the command line, hugepages=128 default_hugepagesz=2M hugepagesz=2M hugepages=256 would result in the allocation of 256 2M huge pages. The value 128 would be ignored without any warning. After this patch, 128 2M pages will be allocated and a warning message will be displayed indicating the value of 256 is ignored. This change in behavior is required because allocation of implicitly specified gigantic pages must be done when the default_hugepagesz= is encountered for gigantic pages. Previously the code waited until later in the boot process (hugetlb_init), to allocate pages of default size. However the bootmem allocator required for gigantic allocations is not available at this time.

Exceeding the number would block the collapse:: /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/khugepaged/max_ptes_shared A higher value may increase memory footprint for some workloads.

kgdb patches for 5.8-rc1
By far the biggest change in this cycle are the changes that allow much earlier debug of systems that are hooked up via UART by taking advantage of the earlycon framework to implement the kgdb I/O hooks before handing over to the regular polling I/O drivers once they are available. When discussing Doug's work we also found and fixed an broken raw_smp_processor_id() sequence in in_dbg_master(). Also included are a collection of much smaller fixes and tweaks: a couple of tweaks to ged rid of doc gen or coccicheck warnings, future proof some internal calculations that made implicit power-of-2 assumptions and eliminate some rather weird handling of magic environment variables in kdb.

mm/memcg: automatically penalize tasks with high swap use
Add a memory.swap.high knob, which can be used to protect the system from SWAP exhaustion. The mechanism used for penalizing is similar to memory.high penalty (sleep on return to user space). That is not to say that the knob itself is equivalent to memory.high. The objective is more to protect the system from potentially buggy tasks consuming a lot of swap and impacting other tasks, or even bringing the whole system to stand still with complete SWAP exhaustion. Hopefully without the need to find per-task hard limits. Slowing misbehaving tasks down gradually allows user space oom killers or other protection mechanisms to react. oomd and earlyoom already do killing based on swap exhaustion, and memory.swap.high protection will help implement such userspace oom policies more reliably. We can use one counter for number of pages allocated under pressure to save struct task space and avoid two separate hierarchy walks on the hot path. The exact overage is calculated on return to user space, anyway. Take the new high limit into account when determining if swap is "full". Borrowing the explanation from Johannes: The idea behind "swap full" is that as long as the workload has plenty of swap space available and it's not changing its memory contents, it makes sense to generously hold on to copies of data in the swap device, even after the swapin. A later reclaim cycle can drop the page without any IO. Trading disk space for IO. But the only two ways to reclaim a swap slot is when they're faulted in and the references go away, or by scanning the virtual address space like swapoff does - which is very expensive (one could argue it's too expensive even for swapoff, it's often more practical to just reboot). So at some point in the fill level, we have to start freeing up swap slots on fault/swapin. Otherwise we could eventually run out of swap slots while they're filled with copies of data that is also in RAM. We don't want to OOM a workload because its available swap space is filled with redundant cache.

Documentation: kgdboc: Document new kgdboc_earlycon parameter
The recent patch ("kgdboc: Add kgdboc_earlycon to support early kgdb using boot consoles") adds a new kernel command line parameter. Document it. Note that the patch adding the feature does some comparing/contrasting of "kgdboc_earlycon" vs. the existing "ekgdboc". See that patch for more details, but briefly "ekgdboc" can be used _instead_ of "kgdboc" and just makes "kgdboc" do its normal initialization early (only works if your tty driver is already ready). The new "kgdboc_earlycon" works in combination with "kgdboc" and is backed by boot consoles.

- Branch Target Identification (BTI) * Support for ARMv8.5-BTI in both user- and kernel-space. This allows branch targets to limit the types of branch from which they can be called and additionally prevents branching to arbitrary code, although kernel support requires a very recent toolchain. * Function annotation via SYM_FUNC_START() so that assembly functions are wrapped with the relevant "landing pad" instructions. * BPF and vDSO updates to use the new instructions. * Addition of a new HWCAP and exposure of BTI capability to userspace via ID register emulation, along with ELF loader support for the BTI feature in .note.gnu.property. * Non-critical fixes to CFI unwind annotations in the sigreturn trampoline. - Shadow Call Stack (SCS) * Support for Clang's Shadow Call Stack feature, which reserves platform register x18 to point at a separate stack for each task that holds only return addresses. This protects function return control flow from buffer overruns on the main stack. * Save/restore of x18 across problematic boundaries (user-mode, hypervisor, EFI, suspend, etc). * Core support for SCS, should other architectures want to use it too. * SCS overflow checking on context-switch as part of the existing stack limit check if CONFIG_SCHED_STACK_END_CHECK=y. - CPU feature detection * Removed numerous "SANITY CHECK" errors when running on a system with mismatched AArch32 support at EL1. This is primarily a concern for KVM, which disabled support for 32-bit guests on such a system. * Addition of new ID registers and fields as the architecture has been extended. - Perf and PMU drivers * Minor fixes and cleanups to system PMU drivers. - Hardware errata * Unify KVM workarounds for VHE and nVHE configurations. * Sort vendor errata entries in Kconfig. - Secure Monitor Call Calling Convention (SMCCC) * Update to the latest specification from Arm (v1.2). * Allow PSCI code to query the SMCCC version. - Software Delegated Exception Interface (SDEI) * Unexport a bunch of unused symbols. * Minor fixes to handling of firmware data. - Pointer authentication * Add support for dumping the kernel PAC mask in vmcoreinfo so that the stack can be unwound by tools such as kdump. * Simplification of key initialisation during CPU bringup. - BPF backend * Improve immediate generation for logical and add/sub instructions. - vDSO - Minor fixes to the linker flags for consistency with other architectures and support for LLVM's unwinder. - Clean up logic to initialise and map the vDSO into userspace. - ACPI - Work around for an ambiguity in the IORT specification relating to the "num_ids" field. - Support _DMA method for all named components rather than only PCIe root complexes. - Minor other IORT-related fixes. - Miscellaneous * Initialise debug traps early for KGDB and fix KDB cacheflushing deadlock. * Minor tweaks to early boot state (documentation update, set TEXT_OFFSET to 0x0, increase alignment of PE/COFF sections). * Refactoring and cleanup -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQFEBAABCgAuFiEEPxTL6PPUbjXGY88ct6xw3ITBYzQFAl7U9csQHHdpbGxAa2Vy bmVsLm9yZwAKCRC3rHDchMFjNLBHCACs/YU4SM7Om5f+7QnxIKao5DBr2CnGGvdC yTfDghFDTLQVv3MufLlfno3yBe5G8sQpcZfcc+hewfcGoMzVZXu8s7LzH6VSn9T9 jmT3KjDMrg0RjSHzyumJp2McyelTk0a4FiKArSIIKsJSXUyb1uPSgm7SvKVDwEwU JGDzL9IGilmq59GiXfDzGhTZgmC37QdwRoRxDuqtqWQe5CHoRXYexg87HwBKOQxx HgU9L7ehri4MRZfpyjaDrr6quJo3TVnAAKXNBh3mZAskVS9ZrfKpEH0kYWYuqybv znKyHRecl/rrGePV8RTMtrwnSdU26zMXE/omsVVauDfG9hqzqm+Q =w3qi -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'arm64-upstream' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon: "A sizeable pile of arm64 updates for 5.8.

mtd: Support kmsg dumper based on pstore/blk
This introduces mtdpstore, which is similar to mtdoops but more powerful. It uses pstore/blk, and aims to store panic and oops logs to a flash partition, where pstore can later read back and present as files in the mounted pstore filesystem. To make mtdpstore work, the "blkdev" of pstore/blk should be set as MTD device name or MTD device number. For more details, see Documentation/admin-guide/pstore-blk.rst This solves a number of issues: - Work duplication: both of pstore and mtdoops do the same job storing panic/oops log. They have very similar logic, registering to kmsg dumper and storing logs to several chunks one by one. - Layer violations: drivers should provides methods instead of polices. MTD should provide read/write/erase operations, and allow a higher level drivers to provide the chunk management, kmsg dump configuration, etc. - Missing features: pstore provides many additional features, including presenting the logs as files, logging dump time and count, and supporting other frontends like pmsg, console, etc. Signed-off-by: WeiXiong Liao <liaoweixiong@allwinnertech.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200511233229.27745-11-keescook@chromium.org/ Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/1589266715-4168-1-git-send-email-liaoweixiong@allwinnertech.com Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> |

pstore/blk: Support non-block storage devices
Add support for non-block devices (e.g. MTD). A non-block driver calls pstore_blk_register_device() to register iself. In addition, pstore/zone is updated to handle non-block devices, where an erase must be done before a write. Without this, there is no way to remove records stored to an MTD.

pstore/ram: Introduce max_reason and convert dump_oops
Now that pstore_register() can correctly pass max_reason to the kmesg dump facility, introduce a new "max_reason" module parameter and "max-reason" Device Tree field. The "dump_oops" module parameter and "dump-oops" Device Tree field are now considered deprecated, but are now automatically converted to their corresponding max_reason values when present, though the new max_reason setting has precedence. For struct ramoops_platform_data, the "dump_oops" member is entirely replaced by a new "max_reason" member, with the only existing user updated in place. Additionally remove the "reason" filter logic from ramoops_pstore_write(), as that is not specifically needed anymore, though technically this is a change in behavior for any ramoops users also setting the printk.always_kmsg_dump boot param, which will cause ramoops to behave as if max_reason was set to KMSG_DUMP_MAX.

cgroup: add cpu.stat file to root cgroup
Currently, the root cgroup does not have a cpu.stat file. Add one which is consistent with /proc/stat to capture global cpu statistics that might not fall under cgroup accounting. We haven't done this in the past because the data are already presented in /proc/stat and we didn't want to add overhead from collecting root cgroup stats when cgroups are configured, but no cgroups have been created. By keeping the data consistent with /proc/stat, I think we avoid the first problem, while improving the usability of cgroups stats. We avoid the second problem by computing the contents of cpu.stat from existing data collected for /proc/stat anyway.
