Detect situations in the unwinder where the frame pointer refers to a
bad address, and print an appropriate warning.
Use printk_deferred_once() because the unwinder can be called with the
console lock by lockdep via save_stack_trace().

If the instruction decoder test ran successful it prints a message like
this to stderr:
Succeed: decoded and checked 1767380 instructions
But, as described in "console mode programming user interface guidelines
version 101" which doesn't exist, programs should use stderr for errors
or warnings. We're told about a successful run here, so the instruction
decoder test should use stdout.
Let's fix the typo too, while we're at it.

Linus suggested we try to remove some of the low-hanging fruit related
to kernel address exposure in dmesg. The only leaks I see on my local
system are:
Freeing SMP alternatives memory: 32K (ffffffff9e309000 - ffffffff9e311000)
Freeing initrd memory: 10588K (ffffa0b736b42000 - ffffa0b737599000)
Freeing unused kernel memory: 3592K (ffffffff9df87000 - ffffffff9e309000)
Freeing unused kernel memory: 1352K (ffffa0b7288ae000 - ffffa0b728a00000)
Freeing unused kernel memory: 632K (ffffa0b728d62000 - ffffa0b728e00000)
Linus says:
"I suspect we should just remove [the addresses in the 'Freeing'
messages]. I'm sure they are useful in theory, but I suspect they
were more useful back when the whole "free init memory" was
originally done.
These days, if we have a use-after-free, I suspect the init-mem
situation is the easiest situation by far. Compared to all the dynamic
allocations which are much more likely to show it anyway. So having
debug output for that case is likely not all that productive."
With this patch the freeing messages now look like this:
Freeing SMP alternatives memory: 32K
Freeing initrd memory: 10588K
Freeing unused kernel memory: 3592K
Freeing unused kernel memory: 1352K
Freeing unused kernel memory: 632K

For mostly historical reasons, the x86 oops dump shows the raw stack
values:
...

Stack:

Call Trace:
...
This seems to be an artifact from long ago, and probably isn't needed
anymore. It generally just adds noise to the dump, and it can be
actively harmful because it leaks kernel addresses.
Linus says:
"The stack dump actually goes back to forever, and it used to be
useful back in 1992 or so. But it used to be useful mainly because
stacks were simpler and we didn't have very good call traces anyway. I
definitely remember having used them - I just do not remember having
used them in the last ten+ years.
Of course, it's still true that if you can trigger an oops, you've
likely already lost the security game, but since the stack dump is so
useless, let's aim to just remove it and make games like the above
harder."
This also removes the related 'kstack=' cmdline option and the
'kstack_depth_to_print' sysctl.

Printing kernel text addresses in stack dumps is of questionable value,
especially now that address randomization is becoming common.
It can be a security issue because it leaks kernel addresses. It also
affects the usefulness of the stack dump. Linus says:
"I actually spend time cleaning up commit messages in logs, because
useless data that isn't actually information (random hex numbers) is
actively detrimental.
It makes commit logs less legible.
It also makes it harder to parse dumps.
It's not useful. That makes it actively bad.
I probably look at more oops reports than most people. I have not
found the hex numbers useful for the last five years, because they are
just randomized crap.
The stack content thing just makes code scroll off the screen etc, for
example."
The only real downside to removing these addresses is that they can be
used to disambiguate duplicate symbol names. However such cases are
rare, and the context of the stack dump should be enough to be able to
figure it out.
There's now a 'faddr2line' script which can be used to convert a
function address to a file name and line:
$ ./scripts/faddr2line ~/k/vmlinux write_sysrq_trigger+0x51/0x60
write_sysrq_trigger+0x51/0x60:
write_sysrq_trigger at drivers/tty/sysrq.c:1098
Or gdb can be used:
$ echo "list *write_sysrq_trigger+0x51" |gdb ~/k/vmlinux |grep "is in"
(gdb) 0xffffffff815b5d83 is in driver_probe_device (/home/jpoimboe/git/linux/drivers/base/dd.c:378).
(But note that when there are duplicate symbol names, gdb will only show
the first symbol it finds. faddr2line is recommended over gdb because
it handles duplicates and it also does function size checking.)
Here's an example of what a stack dump looks like after this change:

I'm not sure how we missed this problem before. When I take a function
address and size from an oops and give it to faddr2line, it usually
complains about a size mismatch:
$ scripts/faddr2line ~/k/vmlinux write_sysrq_trigger+0x51/0x60
skipping write_sysrq_trigger address at 0xffffffff815731a1 due to size mismatch (0x60 != 83)
no match for write_sysrq_trigger+0x51/0x60
The problem is caused by differences in how kallsyms and faddr2line
determine a function's size.
kallsyms calculates a function's size by parsing the output of 'nm -n'
and subtracting the next function's address from the current function's
address. This means that nop instructions after the end of the function
are included in the size.
In contrast, faddr2line reads the size from the symbol table, which does
*not* include the ending nops in the function's size.
Change faddr2line to calculate the size from the output of 'nm -n' to be
consistent with kallsyms and oops outputs.

The value of regs->orig_ax contains potentially useful debugging data:
For syscalls it contains the syscall number. For interrupts it contains

The entry code doesn't encode the pt_regs pointer for syscalls. But the
pt_regs are always at the same location, so we can add a manual check
for them.
A later patch prints them as part of the oops stack dump. They could be
useful, for example, to determine the arguments to a system call.

With frame pointers, when a task is interrupted, its stack is no longer
completely reliable because the function could have been interrupted
before it had a chance to save the previous frame pointer on the stack.
So the caller of the interrupted function could get skipped by a stack
trace.
This is problematic for live patching, which needs to know whether a
stack trace of a sleeping task can be relied upon. There's currently no
way to detect if a sleeping task was interrupted by a page fault
exception or preemption before it went to sleep.
Another issue is that when dumping the stack of an interrupted task, the
unwinder has no way of knowing where the saved pt_regs registers are, so
it can't print them.
This solves those issues by encoding the pt_regs pointer in the frame
pointer on entry from an interrupt or an exception.
This patch also updates the unwinder to be able to decode it, because
otherwise the unwinder would be broken by this change.
Note that this causes a change in the behavior of the unwinder: each
instance of a pt_regs on the stack is now considered a "frame". So
callers of unwind_get_return_address() will now get an occasional
'regs->ip' address that would have previously been skipped over.

When core_kernel_text() is used to determine whether an address on a
task's stack trace is a kernel text address, it incorrectly returns
false for early text addresses for the head code between the _text and
_stext markers. Among other things, this can cause the unwinder to
behave incorrectly when unwinding to x86 head code.
Head code is text code too, so mark it as such. This seems to match the
intent of other users of the _stext symbol, and it also seems consistent
with what other architectures are already doing.

Thanks to all the recent x86 entry code refactoring, most tasks' kernel
stacks start at the same offset right below their saved pt_regs,
regardless of which syscall was used to enter the kernel. That creates
a nice convention which makes it straightforward to identify the end of
the stack, which can be useful for the unwinder to verify the stack is
sane.
However, the boot CPU's idle "swapper" task doesn't follow that
convention. Fix that by starting its stack at a sizeof(pt_regs) offset
from the end of the stack page.

The frame at the end of each idle task stack has a zeroed return
address. This is inconsistent with real task stacks, which have a real
return address at that spot. This inconsistency can be confusing for
stack unwinders. It also hides useful information about what asm code
was involved in calling into C.
Make it a real address by using the side effect of a call instruction to
push the instruction pointer on the stack.

Calling schedule_tail() directly breaks that convention because its an

a wrapper which creates a proper "end of stack" frame header before the
call.

The 'error_code' label is awkwardly named, especially when it shows up
in a stack trace. Move it to its own local function and rename it to
'common_exception', analagous to the existing 'common_interrupt'.
This also makes related stack traces more sensible.

Add the local label prefix to all non-function named labels in head_32.S
and entry_32.S. In addition to decluttering the symbol table, it also
will help stack traces to be more sensible. For example, the last
reported function in the idle task stack trace will be startup_32_smp()
instead of is486().

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.

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.

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.

This removes the 'write' and 'force' use from get_user_pages_unlocked()
and replaces them with 'gup_flags' to make the use of FOLL_FORCE
explicit in callers as use of this flag can result in surprising
behaviour (and hence bugs) within the mm subsystem.

This is an ancient bug that was actually attempted to be fixed once
(badly) by me eleven years ago in commit 4ceb5db975 ("Fix
get_user_pages() race for write access") but that was then undone due to
problems on s390 by commit f33ea7f404 ("fix get_user_pages bug").
In the meantime, the s390 situation has long been fixed, and we can now
fix it by checking the pte_dirty() bit properly (and do it better). The
s390 dirty bit was implemented in abf09bed3c ("s390/mm: implement
software dirty bits") which made it into v3.9. Earlier kernels will
have to look at the page state itself.
Also, the VM has become more scalable, and what used a purely
theoretical race back then has become easier to trigger.
To fix it, we introduce a new internal FOLL_COW flag to mark the "yes,
we already did a COW" rather than play racy games with FOLL_WRITE that
is very fundamental, and then use the pte dirty flag to validate that
the FOLL_COW flag is still valid.
