PM: sleep: Add pm_debug_messages kernel command line option
Debug messages from the system suspend/hibernation infrastructure are disabled by default, and can only be enabled after the system has boot up via /sys/power/pm_debug_messages. This makes the hibernation resume hard to track as it involves system boot up across hibernation. There's no chance for software_resume() to track the resume process, for example. Add a kernel command line option to set pm_debug_messages during boot up. Signed-off-by: Chen Yu <yu.c.chen@intel.com> [ rjw: Subject & changelog ] Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

In order to preserve backwards compatibility this is protected by the genfs_seclabel_symlinks SELinux policy capability. - Optimize how we store filename transitions in the kernel, resulting in some significant improvements to policy load times. - Do a better job calculating our internal hash table sizes which resulted in additional policy load improvements and likely general SELinux performance improvements as well. - Remove the unused initial SIDs (labels) and improve how we handle initial SIDs. - Enable per-file labeling for the bpf filesystem. - Ensure that we properly label NFS v4.2 filesystems to avoid a temporary unlabeled condition. - Add some missing XFS quota command types to the SELinux quota access controls. - Fix a problem where we were not updating the seq_file position index correctly in selinuxfs. - We consolidate some duplicated code into helper functions. - A number of list to array conversions. - Update Stephen Smalley's email address in MAINTAINERS" * tag 'selinux-pr-20200330' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pcmoore/selinux: selinux: clean up indentation issue with assignment statement NFS: Ensure security label is set for root inode MAINTAINERS: Update my email address selinux: avtab_init() and cond_policydb_init() return void selinux: clean up error path in policydb_init() selinux: remove unused initial SIDs and improve handling selinux: reduce the use of hard-coded hash sizes selinux: Add xfs quota command types selinux: optimize storage of filename transitions selinux: factor out loop body from filename_trans_read() security: selinux: allow per-file labeling for bpffs selinux: generalize evaluate_cond_node() selinux: convert cond_expr to array selinux: convert cond_av_list to array selinux: convert cond_list to array selinux: sel_avc_get_stat_idx should increase position index selinux: allow kernfs symlinks to inherit parent directory context selinux: simplify evaluate_cond_node() Documentation,selinux: deprecate setting checkreqprot to 1 selinux: move status variables out of selinux_ss |

Support for "split lock" detection:
- Atomic operations (lock prefixed instructions) which span two cache lines have to acquire the global bus lock. This is at least 1k cycles slower than an atomic operation within a cache line and disrupts performance on other cores. Aside of performance disruption this is a unpriviledged form of DoS.

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar: "The main changes in this cycle are: - Various NUMA scheduling updates: harmonize the load-balancer and NUMA placement logic to not work against each other. The intended result is better locality, better utilization and fewer migrations. - Introduce Thermal Pressure tracking and optimizations, to improve task placement on thermally overloaded systems. - Implement frequency invariant scheduler accounting on (some) x86 CPUs. This is done by observing and sampling the 'recent' CPU frequency average at ~tick boundaries. The CPU provides this data via the APERF/MPERF MSRs. This hopefully makes our capacity estimates more precise and keeps tasks on the same CPU better even if it might seem overloaded at a lower momentary frequency. (As usual, turbo mode is a complication that we resolve by observing the maximum frequency and renormalizing to it.) - Add asymmetric CPU capacity wakeup scan to improve capacity utilization on asymmetric topologies.

acpi/x86: add a kernel parameter to disable ACPI BGRT
BGRT is for displaying seamless OEM logo from booting to login screen; however, this mechanism does not always work well on all configurations and the OEM logo can be displayed multiple times. This looks worse than without BGRT enabled. This patch adds a kernel parameter to disable BGRT in boot time. This is easier than re-compiling a kernel with CONFIG_ACPI_BGRT disabled.

sched/fair: Enable tuning of decay period
Thermal pressure follows pelt signals which means the decay period for thermal pressure is the default pelt decay period. Depending on SoC characteristics and thermal activity, it might be beneficial to decay thermal pressure slower, but still in-tune with the pelt signals. One way to achieve this is to provide a command line parameter to set a decay shift parameter to an integer between 0 and 10.

driver core: Add fw_devlink kernel commandline option
fwnode_operations.add_links allows creating device links from information provided by firmware. fwnode_operations.add_links is currently implemented only by OF/devicetree code and a specific case of efi. However, there's nothing preventing ACPI or other firmware types from implementing it. The OF implementation is currently controlled by a kernel commandline parameter called of_devlink. Since this feature is generic isn't limited to OF, add a generic fw_devlink kernel commandline parameter to control this feature across firmware types.

torture: Allow disabling of boottime CPU-hotplug torture operations
In theory, RCU-hotplug operations are supposed to work as soon as there is more than one CPU online. However, in practice, in normal production there is no way to make them happen until userspace is up and running. Besides which, on smaller systems, rcutorture doesn't start doing hotplug operations until 30 seconds after the start of boot, which on most systems also means the better part of 30 seconds after the end of boot. This commit therefore provides a new torture.disable_onoff_at_boot kernel boot parameter that suppresses CPU-hotplug torture operations until about the time that init is spawned. Of course, if you know of a need for boottime CPU-hotplug operations, then you should avoid passing this argument to any of the torture tests. You might also want to look at the splats linked to below. Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20191206185208.GA25636@paulmck-ThinkPad-P72/ Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org> |

rcutorture: Allow boottime stall warnings to be suppressed
In normal production, an RCU CPU stall warning at boottime is often just as bad as at any other time. In fact, given the desire for fast boot, any sort of long-term stall at boot is a bad idea. However, heavy rcutorture testing on large hyperthreaded systems can generate boottime RCU CPU stalls as a matter of course. This commit therefore provides a kernel boot parameter that suppresses reporting of boottime RCU CPU stall warnings and similarly of rcutorture writer stalls. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

rcu: React to callback overload by aggressively seeking quiescent states
In default configutions, RCU currently waits at least 100 milliseconds before asking cond_resched() and/or resched_rcu() for help seeking quiescent states to end a grace period. But 100 milliseconds can be one good long time during an RCU callback flood, for example, as can happen when user processes repeatedly open and close files in a tight loop. These 100-millisecond gaps in successive grace periods during a callback flood can result in excessive numbers of callbacks piling up, unnecessarily increasing memory footprint. This commit therefore asks cond_resched() and/or resched_rcu() for help as early as the first FQS scan when at least one of the CPUs has more than 20,000 callbacks queued, a number that can be changed using the new rcutree.qovld kernel boot parameter. An auxiliary qovld_calc variable is used to avoid acquisition of locks that have not yet been initialized.

x86/split_lock: Enable split lock detection by kernel
A split-lock occurs when an atomic instruction operates on data that spans two cache lines. In order to maintain atomicity the core takes a global bus lock. This is typically >1000 cycles slower than an atomic operation within a cache line. It also disrupts performance on other cores (which must wait for the bus lock to be released before their memory operations can complete). For real-time systems this may mean missing deadlines. For other systems it may just be very annoying. Some CPUs have the capability to raise an #AC trap when a split lock is attempted. Provide a command line option to give the user choices on how to handle this: split_lock_detect= off - not enabled (no traps for split locks) warn - warn once when an application does a split lock, but allow it to continue running. fatal - Send SIGBUS to applications that cause split lock On systems that support split lock detection the default is "warn". Note that if the kernel hits a split lock in any mode other than "off" it will OOPs. One implementation wrinkle is that the MSR to control the split lock detection is per-core, not per thread. This might result in some short lived races on HT systems in "warn" mode if Linux tries to enable on one thread while disabling on the other. Race analysis by Sean Christopherson: - Toggling of split-lock is only done in "warn" mode. Worst case scenario of a race is that a misbehaving task will generate multiple #AC exceptions on the same instruction. And this race will only occur if both siblings are running tasks that generate split-lock #ACs, e.g. a race where sibling threads are writing different values will only occur if CPUx is disabling split-lock after an #AC and CPUy is re-enabling split-lock after *its* previous task generated an #AC. - Transitioning between off/warn/fatal modes at runtime isn't supported and disabling is tracked per task, so hardware will always reach a steady state that matches the configured mode. I.e. split-lock is guaranteed to be enabled in hardware once all _TIF_SLD threads have been scheduled out.

Documentation,selinux: deprecate setting checkreqprot to 1
Deprecate setting the SELinux checkreqprot tunable to 1 via kernel
parameter or /sys/fs/selinux/checkreqprot. Setting it to 0 is left
intact for compatibility since Android and some Linux distributions
do so for security and treat an inability to set it as a fatal error.
Eventually setting it to 0 will become a no-op and the kernel will
stop using checkreqprot's value internally altogether.
checkreqprot was originally introduced as a compatibility mechanism
for legacy userspace and the READ_IMPLIES_EXEC personality flag.
However, if set to 1, it weakens security by allowing mappings to be
made executable without authorization by policy. The default value
for the SECURITY_SELINUX_CHECKREQPROT_VALUE config option was changed
from 1 to 0 in commit

bootconfig: Only load bootconfig if "bootconfig" is on the kernel cmdline
As the bootconfig is appended to the initrd it is not as easy to modify as the kernel command line. If there's some issue with the kernel, and the developer wants to boot a pristine kernel, it should not be needed to modify the initrd to remove the bootconfig for a single boot. As bootconfig is silently added (if the admin does not know where to look they may not know it's being loaded). It should be explicitly added to the kernel cmdline. The loading of the bootconfig is only done if "bootconfig" is on the kernel command line. This will let admins know that the kernel command line is extended. Note, after adding printk()s for when the size is too great or the checksum is wrong, exposed that the current method always looked for the boot config, and if this size and checksum matched, it would parse it (as if either is wrong a printk has been added to show this). It's better to only check this if the boot config is asked to be looked for.

rcuperf: Add kfree_rcu() performance Tests
This test runs kfree_rcu() in a loop to measure performance of the new kfree_rcu() batching functionality. The following table shows results when booting with arguments: rcuperf.kfree_loops=20000 rcuperf.kfree_alloc_num=8000 rcuperf.kfree_rcu_test=1 rcuperf.kfree_no_batch=X rcuperf.kfree_no_batch=X # Grace Periods Test Duration (s) X=1 (old behavior) 9133 11.5 X=0 (new behavior) 1732 12.5 On a 16 CPU system with the above boot parameters, we see that the total number of grace periods that elapse during the test drops from 9133 when not batching to 1732 when batching (a 5X improvement). The kfree_rcu() flood itself slows down a bit when batching, though, as shown. Note that the active memory consumption during the kfree_rcu() flood does increase to around 200-250MB due to the batching (from around 50MB without batching). However, this memory consumption is relatively constant. In other words, the system is able to keep up with the kfree_rcu() load. The memory consumption comes down considerably if KFREE_DRAIN_JIFFIES is increased from HZ/50 to HZ/80. A later patch will reduce memory consumption further by using multiple lists. Also, when running the test, please disable CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT and CONFIG_PROVE_RCU for realistic comparisons with/without batching.

genirq, sched/isolation: Isolate from handling managed interrupts
The affinity of managed interrupts is completely handled in the kernel and cannot be changed via the /proc/irq/* interfaces from user space. As the kernel tries to spread out interrupts evenly accross CPUs on x86 to prevent vector exhaustion, it can happen that a managed interrupt whose affinity mask contains both isolated and housekeeping CPUs is routed to an isolated CPU. As a consequence IO submitted on a housekeeping CPU causes interrupts on the isolated CPU. Add a new sub-parameter 'managed_irq' for 'isolcpus' and the corresponding logic in the interrupt affinity selection code. The subparameter indicates to the interrupt affinity selection logic that it should try to avoid the above scenario. This isolation is best effort and only effective if the automatically assigned interrupt mask of a device queue contains isolated and housekeeping CPUs. If housekeeping CPUs are online then such interrupts are directed to the housekeeping CPU so that IO submitted on the housekeeping CPU cannot disturb the isolated CPU. If a queue's affinity mask contains only isolated CPUs then this parameter has no effect on the interrupt routing decision, though interrupts are only happening when tasks running on those isolated CPUs submit IO. IO submitted on housekeeping CPUs has no influence on those queues. If the affinity mask contains both housekeeping and isolated CPUs, but none of the contained housekeeping CPUs is online, then the interrupt is also routed to an isolated CPU. Interrupts are only delivered when one of the isolated CPUs in the affinity mask submits IO. If one of the contained housekeeping CPUs comes online, the CPU hotplug logic migrates the interrupt automatically back to the upcoming housekeeping CPU. Depending on the type of interrupt controller, this can require that at least one interrupt is delivered to the isolated CPU in order to complete the migration.

efi/x86: Limit EFI old memory map to SGI UV machines
We carry a quirk in the x86 EFI code to switch back to an older method of mapping the EFI runtime services memory regions, because it was deemed risky at the time to implement a new method without providing a fallback to the old method in case problems arose. Such problems did arise, but they appear to be limited to SGI UV1 machines, and so these are the only ones for which the fallback gets enabled automatically (via a DMI quirk). The fallback can be enabled manually as well, by passing efi=old_map, but there is very little evidence that suggests that this is something that is being relied upon in the field. Given that UV1 support is not enabled by default by the distros (Ubuntu, Fedora), there is no point in carrying this fallback code all the time if there are no other users. So let's move it into the UV support code, and document that efi=old_map now requires this support code to be enabled. Note that efi=old_map has been used in the past on other SGI UV machines to work around kernel regressions in production, so we keep the option to enable it by hand, but only if the kernel was built with UV support.
