Andrey Konovalov b274c0bb39 kcov: properly check if we are in an interrupt
in_interrupt() returns a nonzero value when we are either in an
interrupt or have bh disabled via local_bh_disable().  Since we are
interested in only ignoring coverage from actual interrupts, do a proper
check instead of just calling in_interrupt().

As a result of this change, kcov will start to collect coverage from
within local_bh_disable()/local_bh_enable() sections.

Linus Torvalds 9dcb8b685f mm: remove per-zone hashtable of bitlock waitqueues
The per-zone waitqueues exist because of a scalability issue with the
page waitqueues on some NUMA machines, but it turns out that they hurt
normal loads, and now with the vmalloced stacks they also end up
breaking gfs2 that uses a bit_wait on a stack object:

     wait_on_bit(&gh->gh_iflags, HIF_WAIT, TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE)

where 'gh' can be a reference to the local variable 'mount_gh' on the
stack of fill_super().

The reason the per-zone hash table breaks for this case is that there is
no "zone" for virtual allocations, and trying to look up the physical
page to get at it will fail (with a BUG_ON()).

It turns out that I actually complained to the mm people about the
per-zone hash table for another reason just a month ago: the zone lookup
also hurts the regular use of "unlock_page()" a lot, because the zone
lookup ends up forcing several unnecessary cache misses and generates
horrible code.

As part of that earlier discussion, we had a much better solution for
the NUMA scalability issue - by just making the page lock have a
separate contention bit, the waitqueue doesn't even have to be looked at
for the normal case.

Peter Zijlstra already has a patch for that, but let's see if anybody
even notices.  In the meantime, let's fix the actual gfs2 breakage by
simplifying the bitlock waitqueues and removing the per-zone issue.

Sudip Mukherjee 3118dac501 kernel/irq: Export irq_set_parent()
The TPS65217 driver grew interrupt support which uses
irq_set_parent(). While it's not yet clear why this is used in the first
place, building the driver as a module fails with:

 ERROR: ".irq_set_parent" [drivers/mfd/tps65217.ko] undefined!

The correctness of the driver change is still investigated, but for now
it's less trouble to export irq_set_parent() than dealing with the build
wreckage.

Linus Torvalds 8835ca59da printk: suppress empty continuation lines
We have a fairly common pattern where you print several things as
continuations on one single line in a loop, and then at the end you do

	printk(KERN_CONT "\n");

to flush the buffered output.

But if the output was flushed by something else (concurrent printk
activity, or just system logging), we don't want that final flushing to
just print an empty line.

So just suppress empty continuation lines when they couldn't be merged
into the line they are a continuation of.

Linus Torvalds 63ae602cea Merge branch 'gup_flag-cleanups'
Merge the gup_flags cleanups from Lorenzo Stoakes:
 "This patch series adjusts functions in the get_user_pages* family such
  that desired FOLL_* flags are passed as an argument rather than
  implied by flags.

  The purpose of this change is to make the use of FOLL_FORCE explicit
  so it is easier to grep for and clearer to callers that this flag is
  being used.  The use of FOLL_FORCE is an issue as it overrides missing
  VM_READ/VM_WRITE flags for the VMA whose pages we are reading
  from/writing to, which can result in surprising behaviour.

  The patch series came out of the discussion around commit 38e0885465
  ("mm: check VMA flags to avoid invalid PROT_NONE NUMA balancing"),
  which addressed a BUG_ON() being triggered when a page was faulted in
  with PROT_NONE set but having been overridden by FOLL_FORCE.
  do_numa_page() was run on the assumption the page _must_ be one marked
  for NUMA node migration as an actual PROT_NONE page would have been
  dealt with prior to this code path, however FOLL_FORCE introduced a
  situation where this assumption did not hold.

  See

      https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=147585445805166

  for the patch proposal"

Additionally, there's a fix for an ancient bug related to FOLL_FORCE and
FOLL_WRITE by me.

Vincent Guittot b5a9b34078 sched/fair: Fix incorrect task group ->load_avg
A scheduler performance regression has been reported by Joseph Salisbury,
which he bisected back to:

  3d30544f02 ("sched/fair: Apply more PELT fixes)

The regression triggers when several levels of task groups are involved
(read: SystemD) and cpu_possible_mask != cpu_present_mask.

The root cause is that group entity's load (tg_child->se[i]->avg.load_avg)
is initialized to scale_load_down(se->load.weight). During the creation of
a child task group, its group entities on possible CPUs are attached to
parent's cfs_rq (tg_parent) and their loads are added to the parent's load
(tg_parent->load_avg) with update_tg_load_avg().

But only the load on online CPUs will then be updated to reflect real load,
whereas load on other CPUs will stay at the initial value.

The result is a tg_parent->load_avg that is higher than the real load, the
weight of group entities (tg_parent->se[i]->load.weight) on online CPUs is
smaller than it should be, and the task group gets a less running time than
what it could expect.

( This situation can be detected with /proc/sched_debug. The ".tg_load_avg"
  of the task group will be much higher than sum of ".tg_load_avg_contrib"
  of online cfs_rqs of the task group. )

The load of group entities don't have to be intialized to something else
than 0 because their load will increase when an entity is attached.

Linus Torvalds 9ffc66941d This adds a new gcc plugin named "latent_entropy". It is designed to
extract as much possible uncertainty from a running system at boot time as
 possible, hoping to capitalize on any possible variation in CPU operation
 (due to runtime data differences, hardware differences, SMP ordering,
 thermal timing variation, cache behavior, etc).
 
 At the very least, this plugin is a much more comprehensive example for
 how to manipulate kernel code using the gcc plugin internals.

Linus Torvalds ef6000b4c6 Disable the __builtin_return_address() warning globally after all
This affectively reverts commit 377ccbb483 ("Makefile: Mute warning
for __builtin_return_address(>0) for tracing only") because it turns out
that it really isn't tracing only - it's all over the tree.

We already also had the warning disabled separately for mm/usercopy.c
(which this commit also removes), and it turns out that we will also
want to disable it for get_lock_parent_ip(), that is used for at least
TRACE_IRQFLAGS.  Which (when enabled) ends up being all over the tree.

Steven Rostedt had a patch that tried to limit it to just the config
options that actually triggered this, but quite frankly, the extra
complexity and abstraction just isn't worth it.  We have never actually
had a case where the warning is actually useful, so let's just disable
it globally and not worry about it.

Petr Mladek dbf52682cb kthread: better support freezable kthread workers
This patch allows to make kthread worker freezable via a new @flags
parameter. It will allow to avoid an init work in some kthreads.

It currently does not affect the function of kthread_worker_fn()
but it might help to do some optimization or fixes eventually.

I currently do not know about any other use for the @flags
parameter but I believe that we will want more flags
in the future.

Finally, I hope that it will not cause confusion with @flags member
in struct kthread. Well, I guess that we will want to rework the
basic kthreads implementation once all kthreads are converted into
kthread workers or workqueues. It is possible that we will merge
the two structures.

Petr Mladek 9a6b06c8d9 kthread: allow to modify delayed kthread work
There are situations when we need to modify the delay of a delayed kthread
work. For example, when the work depends on an event and the initial delay
means a timeout. Then we want to queue the work immediately when the event
happens.

This patch implements kthread_mod_delayed_work() as inspired workqueues.
It cancels the timer, removes the work from any worker list and queues it
again with the given timeout.

A very special case is when the work is being canceled at the same time.
It might happen because of the regular kthread_cancel_delayed_work_sync()
or by another kthread_mod_delayed_work(). In this case, we do nothing and
let the other operation win. This should not normally happen as the caller
is supposed to synchronize these operations a reasonable way.

Petr Mladek 37be45d49d kthread: allow to cancel kthread work
We are going to use kthread workers more widely and sometimes we will need
to make sure that the work is neither pending nor running.

This patch implements cancel_*_sync() operations as inspired by
workqueues.  Well, we are synchronized against the other operations via
the worker lock, we use del_timer_sync() and a counter to count parallel
cancel operations.  Therefore the implementation might be easier.

First, we check if a worker is assigned.  If not, the work has newer been
queued after it was initialized.

Second, we take the worker lock.  It must be the right one.  The work must
not be assigned to another worker unless it is initialized in between.

Third, we try to cancel the timer when it exists.  The timer is deleted
synchronously to make sure that the timer call back is not running.  We
need to temporary release the worker->lock to avoid a possible deadlock
with the callback.  In the meantime, we set work->canceling counter to
avoid any queuing.

Fourth, we try to remove the work from a worker list. It might be
the list of either normal or delayed works.

Fifth, if the work is running, we call kthread_flush_work().  It might
take an arbitrary time.  We need to release the worker-lock again.  In the
meantime, we again block any queuing by the canceling counter.

As already mentioned, the check for a pending kthread work is done under a
lock.  In compare with workqueues, we do not need to fight for a single
PENDING bit to block other operations.  Therefore we do not suffer from
the thundering storm problem and all parallel canceling jobs might use
kthread_flush_work().  Any queuing is blocked until the counter gets zero.

Petr Mladek 22597dc3d9 kthread: initial support for delayed kthread work
We are going to use kthread_worker more widely and delayed works
will be pretty useful.

The implementation is inspired by workqueues.  It uses a timer to queue
the work after the requested delay.  If the delay is zero, the work is
queued immediately.

In compare with workqueues, each work is associated with a single worker
(kthread).  Therefore the implementation could be much easier.  In
particular, we use the worker->lock to synchronize all the operations with
the work.  We do not need any atomic operation with a flags variable.

In fact, we do not need any state variable at all.  Instead, we add a list
of delayed works into the worker.  Then the pending work is listed either
in the list of queued or delayed works.  And the existing check of pending
works is the same even for the delayed ones.

A work must not be assigned to another worker unless reinitialized.
Therefore the timer handler might expect that dwork->work->worker is valid
and it could simply take the lock.  We just add some sanity checks to help
with debugging a potential misuse.

Petr Mladek 8197b3d43b kthread: detect when a kthread work is used by more workers
Nothing currently prevents a work from queuing for a kthread worker when
it is already running on another one.  This means that the work might run
in parallel on more than one worker.  Also some operations are not
reliable, e.g.  flush.

This problem will be even more visible after we add kthread_cancel_work()
function.  It will only have "work" as the parameter and will use
worker->lock to synchronize with others.

Well, normally this is not a problem because the API users are sane.
But bugs might happen and users also might be crazy.

This patch adds a warning when we try to insert the work for another
worker.  It does not fully prevent the misuse because it would make the
code much more complicated without a big benefit.

It adds the same warning also into kthread_flush_work() instead of the
repeated attempts to get the right lock.

A side effect is that one needs to explicitly reinitialize the work if it
must be queued into another worker.  This is needed, for example, when the
worker is stopped and started again.  It is a bit inconvenient.  But it
looks like a good compromise between the stability and complexity.

I have double checked all existing users of the kthread worker API and
they all seems to initialize the work after the worker gets started.

Just for completeness, the patch adds a check that the work is not already
in a queue.

The patch also puts all the checks into a separate function.  It will be
reused when implementing delayed works.

Petr Mladek fbae2d44aa kthread: add kthread_create_worker*()
Kthread workers are currently created using the classic kthread API,
namely kthread_run().  kthread_worker_fn() is passed as the @threadfn
parameter.

This patch defines kthread_create_worker() and
kthread_create_worker_on_cpu() functions that hide implementation details.

They enforce using kthread_worker_fn() for the main thread.  But I doubt
that there are any plans to create any alternative.  In fact, I think that
we do not want any alternative main thread because it would be hard to
support consistency with the rest of the kthread worker API.

The naming and function of kthread_create_worker() is inspired by the
workqueues API like the rest of the kthread worker API.

The kthread_create_worker_on_cpu() variant is motivated by the original
kthread_create_on_cpu().  Note that we need to bind per-CPU kthread
workers already when they are created.  It makes the life easier.
kthread_bind() could not be used later for an already running worker.

This patch does _not_ convert existing kthread workers.  The kthread
worker API need more improvements first, e.g.  a function to destroy the
worker.

IMPORTANT:

kthread_create_worker_on_cpu() allows to use any format of the worker
name, in compare with kthread_create_on_cpu().  The good thing is that it
is more generic.  The bad thing is that most users will need to pass the
cpu number in two parameters, e.g.  kthread_create_worker_on_cpu(cpu,
"helper/%d", cpu).

To be honest, the main motivation was to avoid the need for an empty
va_list.  The only legal way was to create a helper function that would be
called with an empty list.  Other attempts caused compilation warnings or
even errors on different architectures.

There were also other alternatives, for example, using #define or
splitting __kthread_create_worker().  The used solution looked like the
least ugly.

Petr Mladek a65d40961d kthread/smpboot: do not park in kthread_create_on_cpu()
kthread_create_on_cpu() was added by the commit 2a1d446019
("kthread: Implement park/unpark facility").  It is currently used only
when enabling new CPU.  For this purpose, the newly created kthread has to
be parked.

The CPU binding is a bit tricky.  The kthread is parked when the CPU has
not been allowed yet.  And the CPU is bound when the kthread is unparked.

The function would be useful for more per-CPU kthreads, e.g.
bnx2fc_thread, fcoethread.  For this purpose, the newly created kthread
should stay in the uninterruptible state.

This patch moves the parking into smpboot.  It binds the thread already
when created.  Then the function might be used universally.  Also the
behavior is consistent with kthread_create() and kthread_create_on_node().

Petr Mladek 3989144f86 kthread: kthread worker API cleanup
A good practice is to prefix the names of functions by the name
of the subsystem.

The kthread worker API is a mix of classic kthreads and workqueues.  Each
worker has a dedicated kthread.  It runs a generic function that process
queued works.  It is implemented as part of the kthread subsystem.

This patch renames the existing kthread worker API to use
the corresponding name from the workqueues API prefixed by
kthread_:

__init_kthread_worker()		-> __kthread_init_worker()
init_kthread_worker()		-> kthread_init_worker()
init_kthread_work()		-> kthread_init_work()
insert_kthread_work()		-> kthread_insert_work()
queue_kthread_work()		-> kthread_queue_work()
flush_kthread_work()		-> kthread_flush_work()
flush_kthread_worker()		-> kthread_flush_worker()

Note that the names of DEFINE_KTHREAD_WORK*() macros stay
as they are. It is common that the "DEFINE_" prefix has
precedence over the subsystem names.

Note that INIT() macros and init() functions use different
naming scheme. There is no good solution. There are several
reasons for this solution:

  + "init" in the function names stands for the verb "initialize"
    aka "initialize worker". While "INIT" in the macro names
    stands for the noun "INITIALIZER" aka "worker initializer".

  + INIT() macros are used only in DEFINE() macros

  + init() functions are used close to the other kthread()
    functions. It looks much better if all the functions
    use the same scheme.

  + There will be also kthread_destroy_worker() that will
    be used close to kthread_cancel_work(). It is related
    to the init() function. Again it looks better if all
    functions use the same naming scheme.

  + there are several precedents for such init() function
    names, e.g. amd_iommu_init_device(), free_area_init_node(),
    jump_label_init_type(),  regmap_init_mmio_clk(),

  + It is not an argument but it was inconsistent even before.

Peter Zijlstra 26b5679e43 relay: Use irq_work instead of plain timer for deferred wakeup
Relay avoids calling wake_up_interruptible() for doing the wakeup of
readers/consumers, waiting for the generation of new data, from the
context of a process which produced the data.  This is apparently done to
prevent the possibility of a deadlock in case Scheduler itself is is
generating data for the relay, after acquiring rq->lock.

The following patch used a timer (to be scheduled at next jiffy), for
delegating the wakeup to another context.
	commit 7c9cb38302
	Author: Tom Zanussi <zanussi@comcast.net>
	Date:   Wed May 9 02:34:01 2007 -0700

	relay: use plain timer instead of delayed work

	relay doesn't need to use schedule_delayed_work() for waking readers
	when a simple timer will do.

Scheduling a plain timer, at next jiffies boundary, to do the wakeup
causes a significant wakeup latency for the Userspace client, which makes
relay less suitable for the high-frequency low-payload use cases where the
data gets generated at a very high rate, like multiple sub buffers getting
filled within a milli second.  Moreover the timer is re-scheduled on every
newly produced sub buffer so the timer keeps getting pushed out if sub
buffers are filled in a very quick succession (less than a jiffy gap
between filling of 2 sub buffers).  As a result relay runs out of sub
buffers to store the new data.

By using irq_work it is ensured that wakeup of userspace client, blocked
in the poll call, is done at earliest (through self IPI or next timer
tick) enabling it to always consume the data in time.  Also this makes
relay consistent with printk & ring buffers (trace), as they too use
irq_work for deferred wake up of readers.

Hidehiro Kawai 0ee59413c9 x86/panic: replace smp_send_stop() with kdump friendly version in panic path
Daniel Walker reported problems which happens when
crash_kexec_post_notifiers kernel option is enabled
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/6/24/44).

In that case, smp_send_stop() is called before entering kdump routines
which assume other CPUs are still online.  As the result, for x86, kdump
routines fail to save other CPUs' registers and disable virtualization
extensions.

To fix this problem, call a new kdump friendly function,
crash_smp_send_stop(), instead of the smp_send_stop() when
crash_kexec_post_notifiers is enabled.  crash_smp_send_stop() is a weak
function, and it just call smp_send_stop().  Architecture codes should
override it so that kdump can work appropriately.  This patch only
provides x86-specific version.

For Xen's PV kernel, just keep the current behavior.

NOTES:

- Right solution would be to place crash_smp_send_stop() before
  __crash_kexec() invocation in all cases and remove smp_send_stop(), but
  we can't do that until all architectures implement own
  crash_smp_send_stop()

- crash_smp_send_stop()-like work is still needed by
  machine_crash_shutdown() because crash_kexec() can be called without
  entering panic()

Fixes: f06e5153f4 (kernel/panic.c: add "crash_kexec_post_notifiers" option)

Ales Novak 0a5bf409d3 ptrace: clear TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE on ptrace detach
On __ptrace_detach(), called from do_exit()->exit_notify()->
forget_original_parent()->exit_ptrace(), the TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE in
thread->flags of the tracee is not cleared up.  This results in the
tracehook_report_syscall_* being called (though there's no longer a tracer
listening to that) upon its further syscalls.

Example scenario - attach "strace" to a running process and kill it (the
strace) with SIGKILL.  You'll see that the syscall trace hooks are still
being called.

The clearing of this flag should be moved from ptrace_detach() to
__ptrace_detach().

Wanpeng Li 9cfb38a7ba sched/fair: Fix sched domains NULL dereference in select_idle_sibling()
Commit:

  10e2f1acd0 ("sched/core: Rewrite and improve select_idle_siblings()")

... improved select_idle_sibling(), but also triggered a regression (crash)
during CPU-hotplug:

This can be reproduced by running the ftrace test case of kselftest, the
test case will hot-unplug the CPU and the CPU will attach to the NULL
sched-domain during scheduler teardown.

The step 2 for the rewrite select_idle_siblings():

  | Step 2) tracks the average cost of the scan and compares this to the
  | average idle time guestimate for the CPU doing the wakeup.

If the CPU which doing the wakeup is the going hot-unplug CPU, then NULL
sched domain will be dereferenced to acquire the average cost of the scan.

This patch fix it by failing the search of an idle CPU in the LLC process
if this sched domain is NULL.

Emese Revfy 0766f788eb latent_entropy: Mark functions with __latent_entropy
The __latent_entropy gcc attribute can be used only on functions and
variables.  If it is on a function then the plugin will instrument it for
gathering control-flow entropy. If the attribute is on a variable then
the plugin will initialize it with random contents.  The variable must
be an integer, an integer array type or a structure with integer fields.

These specific functions have been selected because they are init
functions (to help gather boot-time entropy), are called at unpredictable
times, or they have variable loops, each of which provide some level of
latent entropy.

Emese Revfy 38addce8b6 gcc-plugins: Add latent_entropy plugin
This adds a new gcc plugin named "latent_entropy". It is designed to
extract as much possible uncertainty from a running system at boot time as
possible, hoping to capitalize on any possible variation in CPU operation
(due to runtime data differences, hardware differences, SMP ordering,
thermal timing variation, cache behavior, etc).

At the very least, this plugin is a much more comprehensive example for
how to manipulate kernel code using the gcc plugin internals.

The need for very-early boot entropy tends to be very architecture or
system design specific, so this plugin is more suited for those sorts
of special cases. The existing kernel RNG already attempts to extract
entropy from reliable runtime variation, but this plugin takes the idea to
a logical extreme by permuting a global variable based on any variation
in code execution (e.g. a different value (and permutation function)
is used to permute the global based on loop count, case statement,
if/then/else branching, etc).

To do this, the plugin starts by inserting a local variable in every
marked function. The plugin then adds logic so that the value of this
variable is modified by randomly chosen operations (add, xor and rol) and
random values (gcc generates separate static values for each location at
compile time and also injects the stack pointer at runtime). The resulting
value depends on the control flow path (e.g., loops and branches taken).

Before the function returns, the plugin mixes this local variable into
the latent_entropy global variable. The value of this global variable
is added to the kernel entropy pool in do_one_initcall() and _do_fork(),
though it does not credit any bytes of entropy to the pool; the contents
of the global are just used to mix the pool.

Additionally, the plugin can pre-initialize arrays with build-time
random contents, so that two different kernel builds running on identical
hardware will not have the same starting values.

Linus Torvalds 563873318d Merge branch 'printk-cleanups'
Merge my system logging cleanups, triggered by the broken '\n' patches.

The line continuation handling has been broken basically forever, and
the code to handle the system log records was both confusing and
dubious.  And it would do entirely the wrong thing unless you always had
a terminating newline, partly because it couldn't actually see whether a
message was marked KERN_CONT or not (but partly because the LOG_CONT
handling in the recording code was rather confusing too).

This re-introduces a real semantically meaningful KERN_CONT, and fixes
the few places I noticed where it was missing.  There are probably more
missing cases, since KERN_CONT hasn't actually had any semantic meaning
for at least four years (other than the checkpatch meaning of "no log
level necessary, this is a continuation line").

This also allows the combination of KERN_CONT and a log level.  In that
case the log level will be ignored if the merging with a previous line
is successful, but if a new record is needed, that new record will now
get the right log level.

That also means that you can at least in theory combine KERN_CONT with
the "pr_info()" style helpers, although any use of pr_fmt() prefixing
would make that just result in a mess, of course (the prefix would end
up in the middle of a continuing line).

* printk-cleanups:
  printk: make reading the kernel log flush pending lines
  printk: re-organize log_output() to be more legible
  printk: split out core logging code into helper function
  printk: reinstate KERN_CONT for printing continuation lines
