PEBS-via-PT records contain a mask of applicable counters. To identify
which event belongs to which counter, a side-band event is needed. Until
now, there has been no side-band event, and consequently users were limited
to using a single event.
Add such a side-band event. Note the event is optimised to output only
when the counter index changes for an event. That works only so long as
all PEBS-via-PT events are scheduled together, which they are for a
recording session because they are in a single group.
Also no attribute bit is used to select the new event, so a new
kernel is not compatible with older perf tools. The assumption
being that PEBS-via-PT is sufficiently esoteric that users will not
be troubled by this.

On PREEMPT_RT most items are processed as LAZY via softirq context.
Avoid to spin-wait for them because irq_work_sync() could have higher
priority and not allow the irq-work to be completed.

The irq_work callback is invoked in hard IRQ context. By default all
callbacks are scheduled for invocation right away (given supported by
the architecture) except for the ones marked IRQ_WORK_LAZY which are
delayed until the next timer-tick.
While looking over the callbacks, some of them may acquire locks
(spinlock_t, rwlock_t) which are transformed into sleeping locks on
PREEMPT_RT and must not be acquired in hard IRQ context.
Changing the locks into locks which could be acquired in this context
will lead to other problems such as increased latencies if everything
in the chain has IRQ-off locks. This will not solve all the issues as
one callback has been noticed which invoked kref_put() and its callback
invokes kfree() and this can not be invoked in hardirq context.
Some callbacks are required to be invoked in hardirq context even on
PREEMPT_RT to work properly. This includes for instance the NO_HZ
callback which needs to be able to observe the idle context.
The callbacks which require to be run in hardirq have already been
marked. Use this information to split the callbacks onto the two lists
on PREEMPT_RT:
- lazy_list
Work items which are not marked with IRQ_WORK_HARD_IRQ will be added
to this list. Callbacks on this list will be invoked from a per-CPU
thread.
The handler here may acquire sleeping locks such as spinlock_t and
invoke kfree().
- raised_list
Work items which are marked with IRQ_WORK_HARD_IRQ will be added to
this list. They will be invoked in hardirq context and must not
acquire any sleeping locks.
The wake up of the per-CPU thread occurs from irq_work handler/
hardirq context. The thread runs with lowest RT priority to ensure it
runs before any SCHED_OTHER tasks do.
[bigeasy: melt tglx's irq_work_tick_soft() which splits irq_work_tick() into a
hard and soft variant. Collected fixes over time from Steven
Rostedt and Mike Galbraith. Move to per-CPU threads instead of
softirq as suggested by PeterZ.]

irq_work() triggers instantly an interrupt if supported by the
architecture. Otherwise the work will be processed on the next timer
tick. In worst case irq_work_sync() could spin up to a jiffy.
irq_work_sync() is usually used in tear down context which is fully
preemptible. Based on review irq_work_sync() is invoked from preemptible
context and there is one waiter at a time. This qualifies it to use
rcuwait for synchronisation.
Let irq_work_sync() synchronize with rcuwait if the architecture
processes irqwork via the timer tick.

The push-IPI logic for RT tasks expects to be invoked from hardirq

softirq processing on PREEMPT_RT and so avoid pulling / balancing the RT

When an event probe is to be removed via the API that created it via the
dynamic events, an -ENOENT error is returned.
This is because the removal of the event probe does not expect to see the
event system and name that the event probe is attached to, even though
that's part of the API to create it. As the removal of probes is to use
the same API as they are created.
In fact, the removal is not consistent with the kprobes and uprobes
removal. Fix that by allowing various ways to remove the eprobe.
The eprobe is created with:
e:[GROUP/]NAME SYSTEM/EVENT [OPTIONS]
Have it get removed by echoing in the following into dynamic_events:
# Remove all eprobes with NAME
echo '-:NAME' >> dynamic_events
# Remove a specific eprobe
echo '-:GROUP/NAME' >> dynamic_events
echo '-:GROUP/NAME SYSTEM/EVENT' >> dynamic_events
echo '-:NAME SYSTEM/EVENT' >> dynamic_events
echo '-:GROUP/NAME SYSTEM/EVENT OPTIONS' >> dynamic_events

workqueue: fix state-dump console deadlock

Console drivers often queue work while holding locks also taken in their
console write paths, something which can lead to deadlocks on SMP when
dumping workqueue state (e.g. sysrq-t or on suspend failures).
For serial console drivers this could look like:
CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
show_workqueue_state();
lock(&pool->lock); <IRQ>
lock(&port->lock);
schedule_work();
lock(&pool->lock);
printk();
lock(console_owner);
lock(&port->lock);
where workqueues are, for example, used to push data to the line
discipline, process break signals and handle modem-status changes. Line
disciplines and serdev drivers can also queue work on write-wakeup
notifications, etc.
Reworking every console driver to avoid queuing work while holding locks
also taken in their write paths would complicate drivers and is neither
desirable or feasible.
Instead use the deferred-printk mechanism to avoid printing while
holding pool locks when dumping workqueue state.
Note that there are a few WARN_ON() assertions in the workqueue code
which could potentially also trigger a deadlock. Hopefully the ongoing
printk rework will provide a general solution for this eventually.
This was originally reported after a lockdep splat when executing
sysrq-t with the imx serial driver.

The following warning occurred sporadically on s390:
DMA-API: nvme 0006:00:00.0: device driver maps memory from kernel text or rodata [addr=0000000048cc5e2f] [len=131072]
WARNING: CPU: 4 PID: 825 at kernel/dma/debug.c:1083 check_for_illegal_area+0xa8/0x138
It is a false-positive warning, due to broken logic in debug_dma_map_sg().
check_for_illegal_area() checks for overlay of sg elements with kernel text
or rodata. It is called with sg_dma_len(s) instead of s->length as
parameter. After the call to ->map_sg(), sg_dma_len() will contain the
length of possibly combined sg elements in the DMA address space, and not
the individual sg element length, which would be s->length.
The check will then use the physical start address of an sg element, and
add the DMA length for the overlap check, which could result in the false
warning, because the DMA length can be larger than the actual single sg
element length.
In addition, the call to check_for_illegal_area() happens in the iteration
over mapped_ents, which will not include all individual sg elements if
any of them were combined in ->map_sg().
Fix this by using s->length instead of sg_dma_len(s). Also put the call to
check_for_illegal_area() in a separate loop, iterating over all the
individual sg elements ("nents" instead of "mapped_ents").
While at it, as suggested by Robin Murphy, also move check_for_stack()
inside the new loop, as it is similarly concerned with validating the
individual sg elements.

When building the files in the tracefs file system, do not by default set
any permissions for OTH (other). This will make it easier for admins who
want to define a group for accessing tracefs and not having to first
disable all the permission bits for "other" in the file system.
As tracing can leak sensitive information, it should never by default
allowing all users access. An admin can still set the permission bits for
others to have access, which may be useful for creating a honeypot and
seeing who takes advantage of it and roots the machine.

With "make install", bpftool installs its binary and its bash completion
file. Usually, this is what we want. But a few components in the kernel
repository (namely, BPF iterators and selftests) also install bpftool
locally before using it. In such a case, bash completion is not
necessary and is just a useless build artifact.
Let's add an "install-bin" target to bpftool, to offer a way to install

API headers from libbpf should not be accessed directly from the
library's source directory. Instead, they should be exported with "make
install_headers". Let's make sure that bpf/preload/Makefile installs the
headers properly when building.
Note that we declare an additional dependency for iterators/iterators.o:
having $(LIBBPF_A) as a dependency to "$(obj)/bpf_preload_umd" is not
sufficient, as it makes it required only at the linking step. But we
need libbpf to be compiled, and in particular its headers to be
exported, before we attempt to compile iterators.o. The issue would not
occur before this commit, because libbpf's headers were not exported and
were always available under tools/lib/bpf.

Today when a signal is delivered with a handler of SIG_DFL whose
default behavior is to generate a core dump not only that process but
every process that shares the mm is killed.
In the case of vfork this looks like a real world problem. Consider
the following well defined sequence.
if (vfork() == 0) {
execve(...);
_exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
If a signal that generates a core dump is received after vfork but
before the execve changes the mm the process that called vfork will
also be killed (as the mm is shared).
Similarly if the execve fails after the point of no return the kernel
delivers SIGSEGV which will kill both the exec'ing process and because
the mm is shared the process that called vfork as well.
As far as I can tell this behavior is a violation of people's
reasonable expectations, POSIX, and is unnecessarily fragile when the
system is low on memory.
Solve this by making a userspace visible change to only kill a single
process/thread group. This is possible because Jann Horn recently
modified[1] the coredump code so that the mm can safely be modified
while the coredump is happening. With LinuxThreads long gone I don't
expect anyone to have a notice this behavior change in practice.
To accomplish this move the core_state pointer from mm_struct to
signal_struct, which allows different thread groups to coredump
simultatenously.
In zap_threads remove the work to kill anything except for the current
thread group.
v2: Remove core_state from the VM_BUG_ON_MM print to fix
compile failure when CONFIG_DEBUG_VM is enabled.

Add support to wait on multiple futexes. This is the interface
implemented by this syscall:
futex_waitv(struct futex_waitv *waiters, unsigned int nr_futexes,
unsigned int flags, struct timespec *timeout, clockid_t clockid)
struct futex_waitv {
__u64 val;
__u64 uaddr;
__u32 flags;
__u32 __reserved;
};
Given an array of struct futex_waitv, wait on each uaddr. The thread
wakes if a futex_wake() is performed at any uaddr. The syscall returns
immediately if any waiter has *uaddr != val. *timeout is an optional
absolute timeout value for the operation. This syscall supports only
64bit sized timeout structs. The flags argument of the syscall should be
empty, but it can be used for future extensions. Flags for shared
futexes, sizes, etc. should be used on the individual flags of each
waiter.
__reserved is used for explicit padding and should be 0, but it might be
used for future extensions. If the userspace uses 32-bit pointers, it
should make sure to explicitly cast it when assigning to waitv::uaddr.
Returns the array index of one of the woken futexes. There’s no given
information of how many were woken, or any particular attribute of it
(if it’s the first woken, if it is of the smaller index...).
