This can be used in virtual networking applications, and
may have other uses as well. The option is disabled by
default.
A specific use case is setting up virtual routers, bridges, and
hosts on a single OS without the use of network namespaces or
virtual machines. With proper use of ip rules, routing tables,
veth interface pairs and/or other virtual interfaces,
and applications that can bind to interfaces and/or IP addresses,
it is possibly to create one or more virtual routers with multiple
hosts attached. The host interfaces can act as IPv6 systems,
with radvd running on the ports in the virtual routers. With the
option provided in this patch enabled, those hosts can now properly
obtain IPv6 addresses from the radvd.

There's several locations in the kernel that open code the calculation
of the next location in the trace_seq buffer. This is usually done with
p->buffer + p->len
Instead of having this open coded, supply a helper function in the

Currently trace_seq_putmem_hex() can only take as a parameter a pointer
to something that is 8 bytes or less, otherwise it will overflow the
buffer. This is protected by a macro that encompasses the call to
trace_seq_putmem_hex() that has a BUILD_BUG_ON() for the variable before
it is passed in. This is not very robust and if trace_seq_putmem_hex() ever
gets used outside that macro it will cause issues.
Instead of only being able to produce a hex output of memory that is for
a single word, change it to be more robust and allow any size input.

For using trace_seq_*() functions in NMI context, I posted a patch to move
it to the lib/ directory. This caused Andrew Morton to take a look at the code.
He went through and gave a lot of comments about missing kernel doc,
inconsistent types for the save variable, mix match of EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL()
and EXPORT_SYMBOL() as well as missing EXPORT_SYMBOL*()s. There were
a few comments about the way variables were being compared (int vs uint).
All these were good review comments and should be implemented regardless of
if trace_seq.c should be moved to lib/ or not.

The enabled_functions is used to help debug the dynamic function tracing.
Adding what trampolines are attached to files is useful for debugging.
Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
Function graph tracing is a bit different than the function tracers, as
it is processed after either the ftrace_caller or ftrace_regs_caller
and we only have one place to modify the jump to ftrace_graph_caller,
the jump needs to happen after the restore of registeres.
The function graph tracer is dependent on the function tracer, where
even if the function graph tracing is going on by itself, the save and
restore of registers is still done for function tracing regardless of
if function tracing is happening, before it calls the function graph
code.
If there's no function tracing happening, it is possible to just call
the function graph tracer directly, and avoid the wasted effort to save
and restore regs for function tracing.
This requires adding new flags to the dyn_ftrace records:
FTRACE_FL_TRAMP
FTRACE_FL_TRAMP_EN
The first is set if the count for the record is one, and the ftrace_ops
associated to that record has its own trampoline. That way the mcount code
can call that trampoline directly.
In the future, trampolines can be added to arbitrary ftrace_ops, where you
can have two or more ftrace_ops registered to ftrace (like kprobes and perf)
and if they are not tracing the same functions, then instead of doing a
loop to check all registered ftrace_ops against their hashes, just call the
ftrace_ops trampoline directly, which would call the registered ftrace_ops
function directly.

1. uprobe_buffer_enable() and uprobe_buffer_disable() are not balanced,
_enable() should be called only if !enabled.
2. If uprobe_buffer_enable() fails probe_event_enable() should clear
tp.flags and free event_file_link.
3. If uprobe_register() fails it should do uprobe_buffer_disable().

OK, perhaps it makes sense to avoid store_trace_args() if the tracee is

in uprobe_perf_func() and unify the TRACE/PROFILE filtering (we need to
do this anyway to mix perf/ftrace). Until then this code actually adds

This reverts commit 43fe98913c.
This patch is very wrong. Firstly, this change leads to unbalanced
uprobe_unregister(). Just for example,
# perf probe -x /lib/libc.so.6 syscall
# echo 1 >> /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/probe_libc/enable
# perf record -e probe_libc:syscall whatever
after that uprobe is dead (unregistered) but the user of ftrace/perf
can't know this, and it looks as if nobody hits this probe.
This would be easy to fix, but there are other reasons why it is not
simple to mix ftrace and perf. If nothing else, they can't share the
same ->consumer.filter. This is fixable too, but probably we need to
fix the poorly designed uprobe_register() interface first. At least
"register" and "apply" should be clearly separated.

We've converted cgroup to kernfs so cgroup won't be intertwined with
vfs objects and locking, but there are dark areas.
Run two instances of this script concurrently:
for ((; ;))
{
mount -t cgroup -o cpuacct xxx /cgroup
umount /cgroup
}
After a while, I saw two mount processes were stuck at retrying, because
they were waiting for a subsystem to become free, but the root associated
with this subsystem never got freed.
This can happen, if thread A is in the process of killing superblock but
hasn't called percpu_ref_kill(), and at this time thread B is mounting
the same cgroup root and finds the root in the root list and performs
percpu_ref_try_get().
To fix this, we try to increase both the refcnt of the superblock and the
percpu refcnt of cgroup root.
v2:
- we should try to get both the superblock refcnt and cgroup_root refcnt,
because cgroup_root may have no superblock assosiated with it.

When registering a function callback for the function tracer, the ops
can specify if it wants to save full regs (like an interrupt would)
for each function that it traces, or if it does not care about regs
and just wants to have the fastest return possible.
Once a ops has registered a function, if other ops register that
function they all will receive the regs too. That's because it does
the work once, it does it for everyone.
Now if the ops wanting regs unregisters the function so that there's
only ops left that do not care about regs, those ops will still
continue getting regs and going through the work for it on that
function. This is because the disabling of the rec counter only
sees the ops registered, and does not see the ops that are still
attached, and does not know if the current ops that are still attached
want regs or not. To play it safe, it just keeps regs being processed
until no function is registered anymore.
Instead of doing that, check the ops that are still registered for that
function and if none want regs for it anymore, then disable the
processing of regs.

Currently, a percpu_ref undoes percpu_ref_init() automatically by
freeing the allocated percpu area when the percpu_ref is killed.
While seemingly convenient, this has the following niggles.
* It's impossible to re-init a released reference counter without
going through re-allocation.
* In the similar vein, it's impossible to initialize a percpu_ref
count with static percpu variables.
* We need and have an explicit destructor anyway for failure paths -
percpu_ref_cancel_init().
This patch removes the automatic percpu counter freeing in
percpu_ref_kill_rcu() and repurposes percpu_ref_cancel_init() into a
generic destructor now named percpu_ref_exit(). percpu_ref_destroy()
is considered but it gets confusing with percpu_ref_kill() while
"exit" clearly indicates that it's the counterpart of
percpu_ref_init().
All percpu_ref_cancel_init() users are updated to invoke
percpu_ref_exit() instead and explicit percpu_ref_exit() calls are
added to the destruction path of all percpu_ref users.

The cause is that cpuset_mems_allowed() try to take
mutex_lock(&callback_mutex) under the rcu_read_lock(which was hold in
__mpol_dup()). And in cpuset_mems_allowed(), the access to cpuset is
under rcu_read_lock, so in __mpol_dup, we can reduce the rcu_read_lock
protection region to protect the access to cpuset only in
current_cpuset_is_being_rebound(). So that we can avoid this bug.
This patch is a temporary solution that just addresses the bug
mentioned above, can not fix the long-standing issue about cpuset.mems
rebinding on fork():
"When the forker's task_struct is duplicated (which includes
->mems_allowed) and it races with an update to cpuset_being_rebound
in update_tasks_nodemask() then the task's mems_allowed doesn't get
updated. And the child task's mems_allowed can be wrong if the
cpuset's nodemask changes before the child has been added to the
cgroup's tasklist."

A 'softlockup' is defined as a bug that causes the kernel to loop in
kernel mode for more than a predefined period to time, without giving
other tasks a chance to run.
Currently, upon detection of this condition by the per-cpu watchdog
task, debug information (including a stack trace) is sent to the system
log.
On some occasions, we have observed that the "victim" rather than the
actual "culprit" (i.e. the owner/holder of the contended resource) is
reported to the user. Often this information has proven to be
insufficient to assist debugging efforts.
To avoid loss of useful debug information, for architectures which
support NMI, this patch makes it possible to improve soft lockup
reporting. This is accomplished by issuing an NMI to each cpu to obtain
a stack trace.
If NMI is not supported we just revert back to the old method. A sysctl
and boot-time parameter is available to toggle this feature.

However, if the percpu_pagelist_fraction sysctl is set by the user, it
is also impossible to restore it to the kernel default since the user
cannot write 0 to the sysctl.
This patch allows the user to write 0 to restore the default behavior.
It still requires a fraction equal to or larger than 8, however, as
stated by the documentation for sanity. If a value in the range [1, 7]
is written, the sysctl will return EINVAL.
This successfully solves the divide by zero issue at the same time.

What happened is after updating the watchdog_thresh, the lockup detector
is restarted to utilize the new value. Part of this process involved
disabling preemption. Once preemption was disabled, perf tried to
allocate a new event (as part of the restart). This caused the above
BUG_ON as you can't sleep with preemption disabled.
The preemption restriction seemed agressive as we are not doing anything
on that particular cpu, but with all the online cpus (which are
protected by the get_online_cpus lock). Remove the restriction and the
BUG_ON goes away.

To allow filtering of huge pages, makedumpfile must be able to identify
them in the dump. This can be done by checking the appropriate page
flag, so communicate its value to makedumpfile through the VMCOREINFO
interface.
There's only one small catch. Depending on how many page flags are
available on a given architecture, this bit can be called PG_head or
PG_compound.
I sent a similar patch back in 2012, but Eric Biederman did not like
using an #ifdef. So, this time I'm adding a common symbol

There is a race between the CPU offline code (within stop-machine) and
the smp-call-function code, which can lead to getting IPIs on the
outgoing CPU, *after* it has gone offline.
Specifically, this can happen when using
smp_call_function_single_async() to send the IPI, since this API allows
sending asynchronous IPIs from IRQ disabled contexts. The exact race
condition is described below.
During CPU offline, in stop-machine, we don't enforce any rule in the
_DISABLE_IRQ stage, regarding the order in which the outgoing CPU and
the other CPUs disable their local interrupts. Due to this, we can
encounter a situation in which an IPI is sent by one of the other CPUs
to the outgoing CPU (while it is *still* online), but the outgoing CPU
ends up noticing it only *after* it has gone offline.
CPU 1 CPU 2
(Online CPU) (CPU going offline)
Enter _PREPARE stage Enter _PREPARE stage
Enter _DISABLE_IRQ stage
=
Got a device interrupt, and | Didn't notice the IPI
the interrupt handler sent an | since interrupts were
IPI to CPU 2 using | disabled on this CPU.
smp_call_function_single_async() |
=
Enter _DISABLE_IRQ stage
Enter _RUN stage Enter _RUN stage
=
Busy loop with interrupts | Invoke take_cpu_down()
disabled. | and take CPU 2 offline
=
Enter _EXIT stage Enter _EXIT stage
Re-enable interrupts Re-enable interrupts
The pending IPI is noted
immediately, but alas,
the CPU is offline at
this point.
This of course, makes the smp-call-function IPI handler code running on
CPU 2 unhappy and it complains about "receiving an IPI on an offline
CPU".
One real example of the scenario on CPU 1 is the block layer's
complete-request call-path:
__blk_complete_request() [interrupt-handler]
raise_blk_irq()
smp_call_function_single_async()
However, if we look closely, the block layer does check that the target
CPU is online before firing the IPI. So in this case, it is actually
the unfortunate ordering/timing of events in the stop-machine phase that
leads to receiving IPIs after the target CPU has gone offline.
In reality, getting a late IPI on an offline CPU is not too bad by
itself (this can happen even due to hardware latencies in IPI
send-receive). It is a bug only if the target CPU really went offline
without executing all the callbacks queued on its list. (Note that a
CPU is free to execute its pending smp-call-function callbacks in a
batch, without waiting for the corresponding IPIs to arrive for each one
of those callbacks).
So, fixing this issue can be broken up into two parts:
1. Ensure that a CPU goes offline only after executing all the
callbacks queued on it.
2. Modify the warning condition in the smp-call-function IPI handler
code such that it warns only if an offline CPU got an IPI *and* that
CPU had gone offline with callbacks still pending in its queue.
Achieving part 1 is straight-forward - just flush (execute) all the
queued callbacks on the outgoing CPU in the CPU_DYING stage[1],
including those callbacks for which the source CPU's IPIs might not have
been received on the outgoing CPU yet. Once we do this, an IPI that
arrives late on the CPU going offline (either due to the race mentioned
above, or due to hardware latencies) will be completely harmless, since
the outgoing CPU would have executed all the queued callbacks before
going offline.
Overall, this fix (parts 1 and 2 put together) additionally guarantees
that we will see a warning only when the *IPI-sender code* is buggy -
that is, if it queues the callback _after_ the target CPU has gone
offline.
[1]. The CPU_DYING part needs a little more explanation: by the time we
execute the CPU_DYING notifier callbacks, the CPU would have already
been marked offline. But we want to flush out the pending callbacks at
this stage, ignoring the fact that the CPU is offline. So restructure
the IPI handler code so that we can by-pass the "is-cpu-offline?" check
in this particular case. (Of course, the right solution here is to fix
CPU hotplug to mark the CPU offline _after_ invoking the CPU_DYING
notifiers, but this requires a lot of audit to ensure that this change
doesn't break any existing code; hence lets go with the solution
proposed above until that is done).

Commit ac1bea8578 (Make cond_resched() report RCU quiescent states)
fixed a problem where a CPU looping in the kernel with but one runnable
task would give RCU CPU stall warnings, even if the in-kernel loop
contained cond_resched() calls. Unfortunately, in so doing, it introduced
performance regressions in Anton Blanchard's will-it-scale "open1" test.
The problem appears to be not so much the increased cond_resched() path
length as an increase in the rate at which grace periods complete, which
increased per-update grace-period overhead.
This commit takes a different approach to fixing this bug, mainly by
moving the RCU-visible quiescent state from cond_resched() to
rcu_note_context_switch(), and by further reducing the check to a
simple non-zero test of a single per-CPU variable. However, this
approach requires that the force-quiescent-state processing send
resched IPIs to the offending CPUs. These will be sent only once
the grace period has reached an age specified by the boot/sysfs
parameter rcutree.jiffies_till_sched_qs, or once the grace period
reaches an age halfway to the point at which RCU CPU stall warnings
will be emitted, whichever comes first.

Currently, call_rcu() relies on implicit allocation and initialization
for the debug-objects handling of RCU callbacks. If you hammer the
kernel hard enough with Sasha's modified version of trinity, you can end
up with the sl*b allocators recursing into themselves via this implicit
call_rcu() allocation.
This commit therefore exports the debug_init_rcu_head() and
debug_rcu_head_free() functions, which permits the allocators to allocated
and pre-initialize the debug-objects information, so that there no longer
any need for call_rcu() to do that initialization, which in turn prevents
the recursion into the memory allocators.

In lowres mode, hrtimers are serviced by the tick instead of a clock
event. It works well as long as the tick stays periodic but we must also
make sure that the hrtimers are serviced in dynticks mode targets,
pretty much like timer list timers do.
Note that all dynticks modes are concerned: get_nohz_timer_target()
tries not to return remote idle CPUs but there is nothing to prevent
the elected target from entering dynticks idle mode until we lock its
base. It's also prefectly legal to enqueue hrtimers on full dynticks CPU.
So there are two requirements to correctly handle dynticks:
1) On target's tick stop time, we must not delay the next tick further
the next hrtimer.
2) On hrtimer queue time. If the tick of the target is stopped, we must
wake up that CPU such that it sees the new hrtimer and recalculate
the next tick accordingly.
The point 1 is well handled currently through get_nohz_timer_interrupt() and
cmp_next_hrtimer_event().
But the point 2 isn't handled at all.
Fixing this is easy though as we have the necessary API ready for that.
All we need is to call wake_up_nohz_cpu() on a target when a newly
enqueued hrtimer requires tick rescheduling, like timer list timer do.

In lowres mode, hrtimers are serviced by the tick instead of a clock
event. Now it works well as long as the tick stays periodic but we
must also make sure that the hrtimers are serviced in dynticks mode.
Part of that job consist in kicking a dynticks hrtimer target in order
to make it reconsider the next tick to schedule to correctly handle the
hrtimer's expiring time. And that part isn't handled by the hrtimers
subsystem.
To prepare for fixing this, we need __hrtimer_start_range_ns() to be
able to resolve the CPU target associated to a hrtimer's object
'cpu_base' so that the kick can be centralized there.
So lets store it in the 'struct hrtimer_cpu_base' to resolve the CPU
without overhead. It is set once at CPU's online notification.

When a timer is enqueued or modified on a dynticks target, that CPU
must re-evaluate the next tick to service that timer.
The tick re-evaluation is performed by an IPI kick on the target.
Now while we correctly call wake_up_nohz_cpu() from add_timer_on(), the
mod_timer*() API family doesn't support so well dynticks targets.
The reason for this is likely that __mod_timer() isn't supposed to
select an idle target for a timer, unless that target is the current
CPU, in which case a dynticks idle kick isn't actually needed.
But there is a small race window lurking behind that assumption: the
elected target has all the time to turn dynticks idle between the call
to get_nohz_timer_target() and the locking of its base. Hence a risk
that we enqueue a timer on a dynticks idle destination without kicking
it. As a result, the timer might be serviced too late in the future.
Also a target elected by __mod_timer() can be in full dynticks mode
and thus require to be kicked as well. And unlike idle dynticks, this
concern both local and remote targets.
To fix this whole issue, lets centralize the dynticks kick to
internal_add_timer() so that it is well handled for all sort of timer
enqueue. Even timer migration is concerned so that a full dynticks target
is correctly kicked as needed when timers are migrating to it.

Reduce it to simple and understandable states:
First step is to lookup existing waiters (state) in the kernel.
If there is an existing waiter, validate it and attach to it.
If there is no existing waiter, check the user space value
If the TID encoded in the user space value is 0, take over the futex
preserving the owner died bit.
If the TID encoded in the user space value is != 0, lookup the owner
task, validate it and attach to it.

The kernel tries to atomically unlock the futex without checking
whether there is kernel state associated to the futex.
So if user space manipulated the user space value, this will leave
kernel internal state around associated to the owner task.
For robustness sake, lookup first whether there are waiters on the
futex. If there are waiters, wake the top priority waiter with all the
proper sanity checks applied.
If there are no waiters, do the atomic release. We do not have to
preserve the waiters bit in this case, because a potentially incoming
waiter is blocked on the hb->lock and will acquire the futex
atomically. We neither have to preserve the owner died bit. The caller
is the owner and it was supposed to cleanup the mess.

the end in rt_mutex_adjust_prio_chain, even if we could stop earlier
due to the priority/waiter constellation.
But once we are no longer the top priority waiter in a certain step
or the task holding the lock has already the same priority then there
is no point in dequeing and enqueing along the lock chain as there is
no change at all.
So stop the queueing at this point.

Oleg noticed that rtmutex_slowtrylock() has a pointless check for
rt_mutex_owner(lock) != current.
To avoid calling try_to_take_rtmutex() we really want to check whether
the lock has an owner at all or whether the trylock failed because the
owner is NULL, but the RT_MUTEX_HAS_WAITERS bit is set. This covers
the lock is owned by caller situation as well.
We can actually do this check lockless. trylock is taking a chance
whether we take lock->wait_lock to do the check or not.

syscall_regfunc() ignores the kernel threads because "it has no effect",
see cc3b13c1 "Don't trace kernel thread syscalls" which added this check.
However, this means that a user-space task spawned by call_usermodehelper()
will run without TIF_SYSCALL_TRACEPOINT if sys_tracepoint_refcount != 0.
Remove this check. The unnecessary report from ret_from_fork path mentioned
by cc3b13c1 is no longer possible, see See commit fb45550d76 "make sure
that kernel_thread() callbacks call do_exit() themselves".
A kernel_thread() callback can only return and take the int_ret_from_sys_call
path after do_execve() succeeds, otherwise the kernel will crash. But in this
case it is no longer a kernel thread and thus is needs TIF_SYSCALL_TRACEPOINT.

The commit ea1abd6197 ("workqueue: reimplement idle worker rebinding")
used a trick which simply removes all to-be-bound idle workers from the
idle list and lets them add themselves back after completing rebinding.
And this trick caused the @worker_pool->nr_idle may deviate than the actual
number of idle workers on @worker_pool->idle_list. More specifically,
nr_idle may be non-zero while ->idle_list is empty. All users of
->nr_idle and ->idle_list are audited. The only affected one is
too_many_workers() which is updated to check %false if ->idle_list is
empty regardless of ->nr_idle.
The commit/trick was complicated due to it just tried to simplify an even
more complicated problem (workers had to rebind itself). But the commit
a9ab775bca ("workqueue: directly restore CPU affinity of workers
from CPU_ONLINE") fixed all these problems and the mentioned trick was
useless and is gone.
So, now the @worker_pool->nr_idle is exactly the actual number of workers
on @worker_pool->idle_list. too_many_workers() should recover as it was
before the trick. So we remove the empty check.

There is a piece of sanity checks code in the put_unbound_pool().
The meaning of this code is "if it is not an unbound pool, it will complain
and return" IIUC. But the code uses "pool->flags & POOL_DISASSOCIATED"
imprecisely due to a non-unbound pool may also have this flags.
We should use "pool->cpu < 0" to stand for an unbound pool, so we covert the
code to it.
There is no strictly wrong if we still keep "pool->flags & POOL_DISASSOCIATED"
here, but it is just a noise if we keep it:
1) we focus on "unbound" here, not "[dis]association".
2) "pool->cpu < 0" already implies "pool->flags & POOL_DISASSOCIATED".

The first thing task_numa_migrate() does is check to see if there is
CPU capacity available on the preferred node, in order to move the
task there.
However, if the preferred node is all busy, we would skip considering
that node for tasks swaps in the subsequent loop. This prevents NUMA
convergence of tasks on busy systems.
However, swapping locations with a task on our preferred nid, when
the preferred nid is busy, is perfectly fine.
The fix is to also look for a CPU on our preferred nid when it is
totally busy.
This changes "perf bench numa mem -p 4 -t 20 -m -0 -P 1000" from
not converging in 15 minutes on my 4 node system, to converging in

A full dynticks CPU is allowed to stop its tick when a single task runs.
Meanwhile when a new task gets enqueued, the CPU must be notified so that
it can restart its tick to maintain local fairness and other accounting
details.
This notification is performed by way of an IPI. Then when the target
receives the IPI, we expect it to see the new value of rq->nr_running.
Hence the following ordering scenario:
CPU 0 CPU 1
write rq->running get IPI
smp_wmb() smp_rmb()
send IPI read rq->nr_running
But Paul Mckenney says that nowadays IPIs imply a full barrier on
all architectures. So we can safely remove this pair and rely on the
implicit barriers that come along IPI send/receive. Lets
just comment on this new assumption.

When a new timer is enqueued on a full dynticks target, that CPU must
re-evaluate the next tick to handle the timer correctly.
This is currently performed through the scheduler IPI. Meanwhile this
happens at the cost of off-topic workarounds in that fast path to make
it call irq_exit().
As we plan to remove this hack off the scheduler IPI, lets use
the nohz full kick instead. Pretty much any IPI fits for that job
as long at it calls irq_exit(). The nohz full kick just happens to be
handy and readily available here.
If it happens to be too much an overkill in the future, we can still
turn that timer kick into an empty IPI.

Lets just extend the irq work subsystem to support remote queuing on top
of the generic SMP IPI to handle this kind of user. This shouldn't add
noticeable overhead.

An irq work can be handled from two places: from the tick if the work
carries the "lazy" flag and the tick is periodic, or from a self IPI.
We merge all these works in a single list and we use some per cpu latch
to avoid raising a self-IPI when one is already pending.
Now we could do away with this ugly latch if only the list was only made of
non-lazy works. Just enqueueing a work on the empty list would be enough
to know if we need to raise an IPI or not.
Also we are going to implement remote irq work queuing. Then the per CPU
latch will need to become atomic in the global scope. That's too bad
because, here as well, just enqueueing a work on an empty list of
non-lazy works would be enough to know if we need to raise an IPI or not.
So lets take a way out of this: split the works in two distinct lists,
one for the works that can be handled by the next tick and another
one for those handled by the IPI. Just checking if the latter is empty
when we queue a new work is enough to know if we need to raise an IPI.

When the rtmutex fast path is enabled the slow unlock function can
create the following situation:
spin_lock(foo->m->wait_lock);
foo->m->owner = NULL;
rt_mutex_lock(foo->m); <-- fast path
free = atomic_dec_and_test(foo->refcnt);
rt_mutex_unlock(foo->m); <-- fast path
if (free)
kfree(foo);
spin_unlock(foo->m->wait_lock); <--- Use after free.
Plug the race by changing the slow unlock to the following scheme:
while (!rt_mutex_has_waiters(m)) {
/* Clear the waiters bit in m->owner */
clear_rt_mutex_waiters(m);
owner = rt_mutex_owner(m);
spin_unlock(m->wait_lock);
if (cmpxchg(m->owner, owner, 0) == owner)
return;
spin_lock(m->wait_lock);
}
So in case of a new waiter incoming while the owner tries the slow
path unlock we have two situations:
unlock(wait_lock);
lock(wait_lock);
cmpxchg(p, owner, 0) == owner
mark_rt_mutex_waiters(lock);
acquire(lock);
Or:
unlock(wait_lock);
lock(wait_lock);
mark_rt_mutex_waiters(lock);
cmpxchg(p, owner, 0) != owner
enqueue_waiter();
unlock(wait_lock);
lock(wait_lock);
wakeup_next waiter();
unlock(wait_lock);
lock(wait_lock);
acquire(lock);
If the fast path is disabled, then the simple
m->owner = NULL;
unlock(m->wait_lock);
is sufficient as all access to m->owner is serialized via
m->wait_lock;
Also document and clarify the wakeup_next_waiter function as suggested
by Oleg Nesterov.

This essentially reverts commit:
ecd50f714c ("kprobes, x86: Call exception_enter after kprobes handled")
since it causes build errors with CONFIG_CONTEXT_TRACKING and
that has been made from misunderstandings;
context_track_user_*() don't involve much in interrupt context,
it just returns if in_interrupt() is true.
Instead of changing the do_debug/int3(), this just adds
context_track_user_*() to kprobes blacklist, since those are
still can be called right before kprobes handles int3 and debug
exceptions, and probing those will cause an infinite loop.

rtc: s5m: consolidate two device type switch statements
rtc: s5m: add support for S2MPS14 RTC
rtc: s5m: support different register layout
rtc: s5m: use shorter time of register update
rtc: s5m: remove undocumented time init on first boot
mfd/rtc: sec/s5m: rename SEC* symbols to S5M
gcov: add support for GCC 4.9
ocfs2/o2net: incorrect to terminate accepting connections loop upon rejecting an invalid one
This patch handles the gcov-related changes in GCC 4.9:
A new counter (time profile) is added. The total number is 9 now.
A new profile merge function __gcov_merge_time_profile is added.
See gcc/gcov-io.h and libgcc/libgcov-merge.c
For the first change, the layout of struct gcov_info is affected.
For the second one, a dummy function is added to kernel/gcov/base.c
similarly.

The kernel has no concept of capabilities with respect to inodes; inodes
exist independently of namespaces. For example, inode_capable(inode,
CAP_LINUX_IMMUTABLE) would be nonsense.
This patch changes inode_capable to check for uid and gid mappings and
renames it to capable_wrt_inode_uidgid, which should make it more
obvious what it does.
Fixes CVE-2014-4014.

The check that tests if ftrace_trace_arrays is empty in
top_trace_array(), uses the .prev pointer:
if (list_empty(ftrace_trace_arrays.prev))
instead of testing the variable itself:
if (list_empty(&ftrace_trace_arrays))
Although it is technically correct, it is awkward and confusing.
Use the proper method.

The freeing of an instance, if max data is configured, there will be
per cpu data structures created. But these are not freed when the instance
is deleted, which causes a memory leak.
A new helper function is added that frees the individual buffers within a
trace array, instead of duplicating the code. This way changes made for one
are applied to the other (normal buffer vs max buffer).

The per_cpu buffers are created one per possible CPU. But these do
not mean that those CPUs are online, nor do they even exist.
With the addition of the ring buffer polling, it assumes that the
caller polls on an existing buffer. But this is not the case if
the user reads trace_pipe from a CPU that does not exist, and this
causes the kernel to crash.
Simple fix is to check the cpu against buffer bitmask against to see
if the buffer was allocated or not and return -ENODEV if it is
not.
More updates were done to pass the -ENODEV back up to userspace.

When we walk the lock chain, we drop all locks after each step. So the
lock chain can change under us before we reacquire the locks. That's
harmless in principle as we just follow the wrong lock path. But it
can lead to a false positive in the dead lock detection logic:
T0 holds L0
T0 blocks on L1 held by T1
T1 blocks on L2 held by T2
T2 blocks on L3 held by T3
T4 blocks on L4 held by T4
Now we walk the chain
lock T1 -> lock L2 -> adjust L2 -> unlock T1 ->
lock T2 -> adjust T2 -> drop locks
T2 times out and blocks on L0
Now we continue:
lock T2 -> lock L0 -> deadlock detected, but it's not a deadlock at all.
Brad tried to work around that in the deadlock detection logic itself,
but the more I looked at it the less I liked it, because it's crystal
ball magic after the fact.
We actually can detect a chain change very simple:
lock T1 -> lock L2 -> adjust L2 -> unlock T1 -> lock T2 -> adjust T2 ->
next_lock = T2->pi_blocked_on->lock;
drop locks
T2 times out and blocks on L0
Now we continue:
lock T2 ->
if (next_lock != T2->pi_blocked_on->lock)
return;
So if we detect that T2 is now blocked on a different lock we stop the
chain walk. That's also correct in the following scenario:
lock T1 -> lock L2 -> adjust L2 -> unlock T1 -> lock T2 -> adjust T2 ->
next_lock = T2->pi_blocked_on->lock;
drop locks
T3 times out and drops L3
T2 acquires L3 and blocks on L4 now
Now we continue:
lock T2 ->
if (next_lock != T2->pi_blocked_on->lock)
return;
We don't have to follow up the chain at that point, because T2
propagated our priority up to T4 already.

Even in the case when deadlock detection is not requested by the
caller, we can detect deadlocks. Right now the code stops the lock
chain walk and keeps the waiter enqueued, even on itself. Silly not to
yell when such a scenario is detected and to keep the waiter enqueued.
Return -EDEADLK unconditionally and handle it at the call sites.
The futex calls return -EDEADLK. The non futex ones dequeue the
waiter, throw a warning and put the task into a schedule loop.
Tagged for stable as it makes the code more robust.

When an instance is created, it also gets a snapshot ring buffer
allocated (with minimum of pages). But when it is deleted the snapshot
buffer is not. There was a helper function added to match the allocation
of these ring buffers to a way to free them, but it wasn't used by
the deletion of an instance. Using that helper function solves this
memory leak.

When writing to a sysctl string, each write, regardless of VFS position,
begins writing the string from the start. This means the contents of
the last write to the sysctl controls the string contents instead of the
first:
open("/proc/sys/kernel/modprobe", O_WRONLY) = 1
write(1, "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"..., 4096) = 4096
write(1, "/bin/true", 9) = 9
close(1) = 0
$ cat /proc/sys/kernel/modprobe
/bin/true
Expected behaviour would be to have the sysctl be "AAAA..." capped at
maxlen (in this case KMOD_PATH_LEN: 256), instead of truncating to the
contents of the second write. Similarly, multiple short writes would
not append to the sysctl.
The old behavior is unlike regular POSIX files enough that doing audits
of software that interact with sysctls can end up in unexpected or
dangerous situations. For example, "as long as the input starts with a
trusted path" turns out to be an insufficient filter, as what must also
happen is for the input to be entirely contained in a single write
syscall -- not a common consideration, especially for high level tools.
This provides kernel.sysctl_writes_strict as a way to make this behavior
act in a less surprising manner for strings, and disallows non-zero file
position when writing numeric sysctls (similar to what is already done
when reading from non-zero file positions). For now, the default (0) is
to warn about non-zero file position use, but retain the legacy
behavior. Setting this to -1 disables the warning, and setting this to
1 enables the file position respecting behavior.

Additionally, instead of reading user memory twice, just do the
assignment during the loop.
This change doesn't affect the potential races here. It was already
possible to read a sysctl that was in the middle of a write. In both
cases, the string will always be NULL terminated. The pre-existing race
remains a problem to be solved.

When writing to a sysctl string, each write, regardless of VFS position,
began writing the string from the start. This meant the contents of the
last write to the sysctl controlled the string contents instead of the
first.
This misbehavior was featured in an exploit against Chrome OS. While
it's not in itself a vulnerability, it's a weirdness that isn't on the
mind of most auditors: "This filter looks correct, the first line
written would not be meaningful to sysctl" doesn't apply here, since the
size of the write and the contents of the final write are what matter
when writing to sysctls.
This adds the sysctl kernel.sysctl_writes_strict to control the write
behavior. The default (0) reports when VFS position is non-0 on a
write, but retains legacy behavior, -1 disables the warning, and 1
enables the position-respecting behavior.
The long-term plan here is to wait for userspace to be fixed in response
to the new warning and to then switch the default kernel behavior to the
new position-respecting behavior.

The char buffer arguments are needlessly cast in weird places. Clean it

Add a "crash_kexec_post_notifiers" boot option to run kdump after
running panic_notifiers and dump kmsg. This can help rare situations
where kdump fails because of unstable crashed kernel or hardware failure
(memory corruption on critical data/code), or the 2nd kernel is already
broken by the 1st kernel (it's a broken behavior, but who can guarantee
that the "crashed" kernel works correctly?).
Usage: add "crash_kexec_post_notifiers" to kernel boot option.
Note that this actually increases risks of the failure of kdump. This
option should be set only if you worry about the rare case of kdump
failure rather than increasing the chance of success.

There is a longstanding problem related to CPU hotplug which causes IPIs
to be delivered to offline CPUs, and the smp-call-function IPI handler
code prints out a warning whenever this is detected. Every once in a
while this (usually harmless) warning gets reported on LKML, but so far
it has not been completely fixed. Usually the solution involves finding
out the IPI sender and fixing it by adding appropriate synchronization
with CPU hotplug.
However, while going through one such internal bug reports, I found that
there is a significant bug in the receiver side itself (more
specifically, in stop-machine) that can lead to this problem even when
the sender code is perfectly fine. This patchset fixes that
synchronization problem in the CPU hotplug stop-machine code.
Patch 1 adds some additional debug code to the smp-call-function
framework, to help debug such issues easily.
Patch 2 modifies the stop-machine code to ensure that any IPIs that were
sent while the target CPU was online, would be noticed and handled by
that CPU without fail before it goes offline. Thus, this avoids
scenarios where IPIs are received on offline CPUs (as long as the sender
uses proper hotplug synchronization).
In fact, I debugged the problem by using Patch 1, and found that the
payload of the IPI was always the block layer's trigger_softirq()
function. But I was not able to find anything wrong with the block
layer code. That's when I started looking at the stop-machine code and
realized that there is a race-window which makes the IPI _receiver_ the
culprit, not the sender. Patch 2 fixes that race and hence this should
put an end to most of the hard-to-debug IPI-to-offline-CPU issues.
This patch (of 2):
Today the smp-call-function code just prints a warning if we get an IPI
on an offline CPU. This info is sufficient to let us know that
something went wrong, but often it is very hard to debug exactly who
sent the IPI and why, from this info alone.
In most cases, we get the warning about the IPI to an offline CPU,
immediately after the CPU going offline comes out of the stop-machine
phase and reenables interrupts. Since all online CPUs participate in
stop-machine, the information regarding the sender of the IPI is already
lost by the time we exit the stop-machine loop. So even if we dump the
stack on each CPU at this point, we won't find anything useful since all
of them will show the stack-trace of the stopper thread. So we need a
better way to figure out who sent the IPI and why.
To achieve this, when we detect an IPI targeted to an offline CPU, loop
through the call-single-data linked list and print out the payload
(i.e., the name of the function which was supposed to be executed by the
target CPU). This would give us an insight as to who might have sent
the IPI and help us debug this further.

Now that allow_signal() is really trivial we can unify it with
disallow_signal(). Add the new helper, kernel_sigaction(), and
reimplement allow_signal/disallow_signal as a trivial wrappers.
This saves one EXPORT_SYMBOL() and the new helper can have more users.

disallow_signal() simply sets SIG_IGN, this is not enough and
recalc_sigpending() is simply pointless because in can never change the
state of TIF_SIGPENDING.
If we ignore a signal, we also need to do flush_sigqueue_mask() for the
case when this signal is pending, this way recalc_sigpending() can
actually clear TIF_SIGPENDING and we do not "leak" the allocated
siginfo's.

allow_signal() does sigdelset(current->blocked) due to historic reason,
previously it could be called by a daemonize()'ed kthread, and
daemonize() played with current->blocked.
Now that daemonize() has gone away we can remove sigdelset() and
recalc_sigpending(). If a user really wants to unblock a signal, it
must use sigprocmask() or set_current_block() explicitely.

When tracing a process in another pid namespace, it's important for fork
event messages to contain the child's pid as seen from the tracer's pid
namespace, not the parent's. Otherwise, the tracer won't be able to
correlate the fork event with later SIGTRAP signals it receives from the
child.
We still risk a race condition if a ptracer from a different pid
namespace attaches after we compute the pid_t value. However, sending a
bogus fork event message in this unlikely scenario is still a vast
improvement over the status quo where we always send bogus fork event
messages to debuggers in a different pid namespace than the forking
process.

Adds trace events that give finer resolution into suspend/resume. These
events are graphed in the timelines generated by the analyze_suspend.py
script. They represent large areas of time consumed that are typical to
suspend and resume.
The event is triggered by calling the function "trace_suspend_resume"
with three arguments: a string (the name of the event to be displayed
in the timeline), an integer (case specific number, such as the power
state or cpu number), and a boolean (where true is used to denote the start
of the timeline event, and false to denote the end).
The suspend_resume trace event reproduces the data that the machine_suspend
trace event did, so the latter has been removed.

Yoshihiro Yunomae reported that the ring buffer data for a trace
instance does not get properly cleaned up when it fails. He proposed
a patch that manually cleaned the data up and addad a bunch of labels.
The labels are not needed because all trace array is allocated with
a kzalloc which initializes it to 0 and all kfree()s can take a NULL
pointer and will ignore it.
Adding a new helper function free_trace_buffers() that can also take
null buffers to free the buffers that were allocated by
allocate_trace_buffers().

ftrace_trace_arrays links global_trace.list. However, global_trace
is not added to ftrace_trace_arrays if trace_alloc_buffers() failed.
As the result, ftrace_trace_arrays becomes an empty list. If
ftrace_trace_arrays is an empty list, current top_trace_array() returns
an invalid pointer. As the result, the kernel can induce memory corruption
or panic.
Current implementation does not check whether ftrace_trace_arrays is empty

top_trace_array() returns NULL. Moreover, this patch makes all functions
calling top_trace_array() handle it appropriately.

It fits in the same 8 bytes as the regular rwlock_t by folding the

perf tools like 'perf report' can aggregate samples by comm strings,
which generally works. However, there are other potential use-cases.
For example, to pair up 'calls' with 'returns' accurately (from branch
events like Intel BTS) it is necessary to identify whether the process
has exec'd. Although a comm event is generated when an 'exec' happens
it is also generated whenever the comm string is changed on a whim
(e.g. by prctl PR_SET_NAME). This patch adds a flag to the comm event
to differentiate one case from the other.
In order to determine whether the kernel supports the new flag, a
selection bit named 'exec' is added to struct perf_event_attr. The
bit does nothing but will cause perf_event_open() to fail if the bit
is set on kernels that do not have it defined.

is undefined if a signed is used. This gave a warning on the MIPS

or not, but the calculation this is used for is standard deviation,
and that isn't going to be negative. We can just convert it to

- Clean up some of the CP15 control register tweaks for alignment
support, moving some code and data into alignment.c
- DMA properties for ARM, from Santosh and reviewed by DT people. This
adds DT properties to specify bus translations we can't discover
automatically, and to indicate whether devices are coherent.
- Hibernation support for ARM
- Make ftrace work with read-only text in modules
- add suspend support for PJ4B CPUs
- rework interrupt masking for undefined instruction handling, which
allows us to enable interrupts earlier in the handling of these
exceptions.
- support for big endian page tables
- fix stacktrace support to exclude stacktrace functions from the
trace, and add save_stack_trace_regs() implementation so that kprobes
can record stack traces.
- Add support for the Cortex-A17 CPU.
- Remove last vestiges of ARM710 support.

Merge futex fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"So with more awake and less futex wreckaged brain, I went through my
list of points again and came up with the following 4 patches.
1) Prevent pi requeueing on the same futex
I kept Kees check for uaddr1 == uaddr2 as a early check for private
futexes and added a key comparison to both futex_requeue and
futex_wait_requeue_pi.
Sebastian, sorry for the confusion yesterday night. I really
misunderstood your question.
You are right the check is pointless for shared futexes where the
same physical address is mapped to two different virtual addresses.
2) Sanity check atomic acquisiton in futex_lock_pi_atomic
That's basically what Darren suggested.
I just simplified it to use futex_top_waiter() to find kernel
internal state. If state is found return -EINVAL and do not bother
to fix up the user space variable. It's corrupted already.
3) Ensure state consistency in futex_unlock_pi
The code is silly versus the owner died bit. There is no point to
preserve it on unlock when the user space thread owns the futex.
What's worse is that it does not update the user space value when
the owner died bit is set. So the kernel itself creates observable
inconsistency.
Another "optimization" is to retry an atomic unlock. That's
pointless as in a sane environment user space would not call into
that code if it could have unlocked it atomically. So we always
check whether there is kernel state around and only if there is
none, we do the unlock by setting the user space value to 0.
4) Sanitize lookup_pi_state
lookup_pi_state is ambigous about TID == 0 in the user space value.
This can be a valid state even if there is kernel state on this
uaddr, but we miss a few corner case checks.
I tried to come up with a smaller solution hacking the checks into
the current cruft, but it turned out to be ugly as hell and I got
more confused than I was before. So I rewrote the sanity checks
along the state documentation with awful lots of commentry"
* emailed patches from Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>:
futex: Make lookup_pi_state more robust
futex: Always cleanup owner tid in unlock_pi
futex: Validate atomic acquisition in futex_lock_pi_atomic()
futex-prevent-requeue-pi-on-same-futex.patch futex: Forbid uaddr == uaddr2 in futex_requeue(..., requeue_pi=1)
The current implementation of lookup_pi_state has ambigous handling of
the TID value 0 in the user space futex. We can get into the kernel
even if the TID value is 0, because either there is a stale waiters bit
or the owner died bit is set or we are called from the requeue_pi path
or from user space just for fun.
The current code avoids an explicit sanity check for pid = 0 in case
that kernel internal state (waiters) are found for the user space
address. This can lead to state leakage and worse under some
circumstances.
Handle the cases explicit:
Waiter | pi_state | pi->owner | uTID | uODIED | ?
[1] NULL | --- | --- | 0 | 0/1 | Valid
[2] NULL | --- | --- | >0 | 0/1 | Valid
[3] Found | NULL | -- | Any | 0/1 | Invalid
[4] Found | Found | NULL | 0 | 1 | Valid
[5] Found | Found | NULL | >0 | 1 | Invalid
[6] Found | Found | task | 0 | 1 | Valid
[7] Found | Found | NULL | Any | 0 | Invalid
[8] Found | Found | task | ==taskTID | 0/1 | Valid
[9] Found | Found | task | 0 | 0 | Invalid
[10] Found | Found | task | !=taskTID | 0/1 | Invalid
[1] Indicates that the kernel can acquire the futex atomically. We
came came here due to a stale FUTEX_WAITERS/FUTEX_OWNER_DIED bit.
[2] Valid, if TID does not belong to a kernel thread. If no matching
thread is found then it indicates that the owner TID has died.
[3] Invalid. The waiter is queued on a non PI futex
[4] Valid state after exit_robust_list(), which sets the user space
value to FUTEX_WAITERS | FUTEX_OWNER_DIED.
[5] The user space value got manipulated between exit_robust_list()
and exit_pi_state_list()
[6] Valid state after exit_pi_state_list() which sets the new owner in
the pi_state but cannot access the user space value.
[7] pi_state->owner can only be NULL when the OWNER_DIED bit is set.
[8] Owner and user space value match
[9] There is no transient state which sets the user space TID to 0
except exit_robust_list(), but this is indicated by the
FUTEX_OWNER_DIED bit. See [4]
[10] There is no transient state which leaves owner and user space
TID out of sync.

If the owner died bit is set at futex_unlock_pi, we currently do not
cleanup the user space futex. So the owner TID of the current owner

We need to protect the atomic acquisition in the kernel against rogue
user space which sets the user space futex to 0, so the kernel side
acquisition succeeds while there is existing state in the kernel
associated to the real owner.
Verify whether the futex has waiters associated with kernel state. If
it has, return -EINVAL. The state is corrupted already, so no point in
cleaning it up. Subsequent calls will fail as well. Not our problem.

If uaddr == uaddr2, then we have broken the rule of only requeueing from

dangling pointers may be left for rt_waiter resulting in an exploitable
condition.
This change brings futex_requeue() in line with futex_wait_requeue_pi()
which performs the same check as per commit 6f7b0a2a5c ("futex: Forbid

Introduce saved_cmdlines_size file for changing the number of saved pid-comms.
saved_cmdlines currently stores 128 command names using SAVED_CMDLINES, but
'no-existing processes' names are often lost in saved_cmdlines when we
read the trace data. So, by introducing saved_cmdlines_size file, we can
now change the 128 command names saved to something much larger if needed.
When we write a value to saved_cmdlines_size, the number of the value will
be stored in pid-comm list:
# echo 1024 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/saved_cmdlines_size
Here, 1024 command names can be stored. The default number is 128 and the maximum
number is PID_MAX_DEFAULT (=32768 if CONFIG_BASE_SMALL is not set). So, if we
want to avoid losing any command names, we need to set 32768 to
saved_cmdlines_size.
We can read the maximum number of the list:
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/saved_cmdlines_size
128

tmpfs is widely used but as Denys reports shmem_aops doesn't have
->readpage() and thus you can't probe a binary on this filesystem.
As Hugh suggested we can use shmem_read_mapping_page() in this case,
just we need to check shmem_mapping() if ->readpage == NULL.

copy_insn() fails with -EIO if ->readpage == NULL, but this error
is not propagated unless uprobe_register() path finds ->mm which
already mmaps this file. In this case (say) "perf record" does not
actually install the probe, but the user can't know about this.
Move this check into uprobe_register() so that this problem can be
detected earlier and reported to user.
Note: this is still not perfect,
- copy_insn() and arch_uprobe_analyze_insn() should be called
by uprobe_register() but this is not simple, we need vm_file
for read_mapping_page() (although perhaps we can pass NULL),
and we need ->mm for is_64bit_mm() (although this logic is
broken anyway).
- uprobe_register() should be called by create_trace_uprobe(),
not by probe_event_enable(), so that an error can be detected
at "perf probe -x" time. This also needs more changes in the
core uprobe code, uprobe register/unregister interface was
poorly designed from the very beginning.

While that mutex should guard the elements, it doesn't guard against the
use-after-free that's from list_for_each_entry_rcu().
__perf_event_exit_task() can actually free the event.
And because list addition/deletion is guarded by both ctx->mutex and
ctx->lock, holding ctx->mutex is sufficient for reading the list, so we
don't actually need the rcu list iteration.

[ This series reduces the number of IPIs on Andy's workload by something like
99%. It's down from many hundreds per second to very few.
The basic idea behind this series is to make TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG be a
reliable indication that the idle task is polling. Once that's done,
the rest is reasonably straightforward. ]
When enqueueing tasks on remote LLC domains, we send an IPI to do the
work 'locally' and avoid bouncing all the cachelines over.
However, when the remote CPU is idle (and polling, say x86 mwait), we
don't need to send an IPI, we can simply kick the TIF word to wake it
up and have the 'idle' loop do the work.
So when _TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG is set, but _TIF_NEED_RESCHED is not (yet)
set, set _TIF_NEED_RESCHED and avoid sending the IPI.

Currently, the only real guarantee provided by the polling bit is
that, if you hold rq->lock and the polling bit is set, then you can
set need_resched to force a reschedule.
The only reason the lock is needed is that the idle thread might not
be running at all when setting its need_resched bit, and rq->lock
keeps it pinned.
This is easy to fix: just clear the polling bit before scheduling.
Now the idle thread's polling bit is only ever set when
rq->curr == rq->idle.

This contains the architecture visible changes. Incidentally, only ARM
takes advantage of the available pow^H^H^Hcapacity scaling hooks and
therefore those changes outside kernel/sched/ are confined to one ARM
specific file. The default arch_scale_smt_power() hook is not overridden
by anyone.
Replacements are as follows:
arch_scale_freq_power --> arch_scale_freq_capacity
arch_scale_smt_power --> arch_scale_smt_capacity
SCHED_POWER_SCALE --> SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE
SCHED_POWER_SHIFT --> SCHED_CAPACITY_SHIFT
The local usage of "power" in arch/arm/kernel/topology.c is also changed
to "capacity" as appropriate.

The current no_hz idle load balancer do load balancing for *all* idle cpus,
even though the time due to load balance for a particular
idle cpu could be still a while in the future. This introduces a much
higher load balancing rate than what is necessary. The patch
changes the behavior by only doing idle load balancing on
behalf of an idle cpu only when it is due for load balancing.
On SGI's systems with over 3000 cores, the cpu responsible for idle balancing
got overwhelmed with idle balancing, and introduces a lot of OS noise
to workloads. This patch fixes the issue.

sched_cfs_period_timer() reads cfs_b->period without locks before calling
do_sched_cfs_period_timer(), and similarly unthrottle_offline_cfs_rqs()
would read cfs_b->period without the right lock. Thus a simultaneous
change of bandwidth could cause corruption on any platform where ktime_t
or u64 writes/reads are not atomic.
Extend cfs_b->lock from do_sched_cfs_period_timer() to include the read of
cfs_b->period to solve that issue; unthrottle_offline_cfs_rqs() can just
use 1 rather than the exact quota, much like distribute_cfs_runtime()
does.
There is also an unlocked read of cfs_b->runtime_expires, but a race
there would only delay runtime expiry by a tick. Still, the comparison
should just be != anyway, which clarifies even that problem.

tg_set_cfs_bandwidth() sets cfs_b->timer_active to 0 to
force the period timer restart. It's not safe, because
can lead to deadlock, described in commit 927b54fccb:
"__start_cfs_bandwidth calls hrtimer_cancel while holding rq->lock,
waiting for the hrtimer to finish. However, if sched_cfs_period_timer
runs for another loop iteration, the hrtimer can attempt to take
rq->lock, resulting in deadlock."
Three CPUs must be involved:
CPU0 CPU1 CPU2
take rq->lock period timer fired
... take cfs_b lock
... ... tg_set_cfs_bandwidth()
throttle_cfs_rq() release cfs_b lock take cfs_b lock
... distribute_cfs_runtime() timer_active = 0
take cfs_b->lock wait for rq->lock ...
__start_cfs_bandwidth()
{wait for timer callback
break if timer_active == 1}
So, CPU0 and CPU1 are deadlocked.
Instead of resetting cfs_b->timer_active, tg_set_cfs_bandwidth can
wait for period timer callbacks (ignoring cfs_b->timer_active) and
restart the timer explicitly.

Throttled task is still on rq, and it may be moved to other cpu
if user is playing with sched_setaffinity(). Therefore, unlocked
task_rq() access makes the race.
Juri Lelli reports he got this race when dl_bandwidth_enabled()
was not set.
Other thing, pointed by Peter Zijlstra:
"Now I suppose the problem can still actually happen when
you change the root domain and trigger a effective affinity
change that way".
To fix that we do the same as made in __task_rq_lock(). We do not
use __task_rq_lock() itself, because it has a useful lockdep check,
which is not correct in case of dl_task_timer(). We do not need
pi_lock locked here. This case is an exception (PeterZ):
"The only reason we don't strictly need ->pi_lock now is because
we're guaranteed to have p->state == TASK_RUNNING here and are
thus free of ttwu races".

As Peter Zijlstra told me, we have the following path:
do_exit()
exit_itimers()
itimer_delete()
spin_lock_irqsave(&timer->it_lock, &flags);
timer_delete_hook(timer);
kc->timer_del(timer) := posix_cpu_timer_del()
put_task_struct()
__put_task_struct()
task_numa_free()
spin_lock(&grp->lock);
Which means that task_numa_free() can be called with interrupts
disabled, which means that we should not be using spin_lock_irq() but
spin_lock_irqsave() instead. Otherwise we are enabling interrupts while
holding an interrupt unsafe lock!

We have reached the point where our mutexes are quite fine tuned
for a number of situations. This includes the use of heuristics
and optimistic spinning, based on MCS locking techniques.
Exclusive ownership of read-write semaphores are, conceptually,
just about the same as mutexes, making them close cousins. To
this end we need to make them both perform similarly, and
right now, rwsems are simply not up to it. This was discovered
by both reverting commit 4fc3f1d6 (mm/rmap, migration: Make
rmap_walk_anon() and try_to_unmap_anon() more scalable) and
similarly, converting some other mutexes (ie: i_mmap_mutex) to
rwsems. This creates a situation where users have to choose
between a rwsem and mutex taking into account this important
performance difference. Specifically, biggest difference between
both locks is when we fail to acquire a mutex in the fastpath,
optimistic spinning comes in to play and we can avoid a large
amount of unnecessary sleeping and overhead of moving tasks in
and out of wait queue. Rwsems do not have such logic.
This patch, based on the work from Tim Chen and I, adds support
for write-side optimistic spinning when the lock is contended.
It also includes support for the recently added cancelable MCS
locking for adaptive spinning. Note that is is only applicable
to the xadd method, and the spinlock rwsem variant remains intact.
Allowing optimistic spinning before putting the writer on the wait
queue reduces wait queue contention and provided greater chance
for the rwsem to get acquired. With these changes, rwsem is on par
with mutex. The performance benefits can be seen on a number of
workloads. For instance, on a 8 socket, 80 core 64bit Westmere box,
aim7 shows the following improvements in throughput:
+--------------+---------------------+-----------------+
| Workload | throughput-increase | number of users |
+--------------+---------------------+-----------------+
| alltests | 20% | >1000 |
| custom | 27%, 60% | 10-100, >1000 |
| high_systime | 36%, 30% | >100, >1000 |
| shared | 58%, 29% | 10-100, >1000 |
+--------------+---------------------+-----------------+
There was also improvement on smaller systems, such as a quad-core
x86-64 laptop running a 30Gb PostgreSQL (pgbench) workload for up
to +60% in throughput for over 50 clients. Additionally, benefits
were also noticed in exim (mail server) workloads. Furthermore, no
performance regression have been seen at all.

If the log ring buffer becomes full, we silently overwrite old messages
with new data. console_unlock will detect this case and fast-forward the
console_* pointers to skip over the corrupted data, but nothing will be
reported to the user.
This patch hijacks the first valid log message after detecting that we
dropped messages and prefixes it with a note detailing how many messages
were dropped. For long (~1000 char) messages, this will result in some
truncation of the real message, but given that we're dropping things

Jiri Bohac pointed out that there are rare but potential deadlock
possibilities when calling printk while holding the timekeeping
seqlock.
This is due to printk() triggering console sem wakeup, which can
cause scheduling code to trigger hrtimers which may try to read
the time.
Specifically, as Jiri pointed out, that path is:
printk
vprintk_emit
console_unlock
up(&console_sem)
__up
wake_up_process
try_to_wake_up
ttwu_do_activate
ttwu_activate
activate_task
enqueue_task
enqueue_task_fair
hrtick_update
hrtick_start_fair
hrtick_start_fair
get_time
ktime_get
--> endless loop on
read_seqcount_retry(&timekeeper_seq, ...)
This patch tries to avoid this issue by using printk_deferred (previously
named printk_sched) which should defer printing via a irq_work_queue.

To prevent deadlocks with doing a printk inside the scheduler,
printk_sched() was created. The issue is that printk has a console_sem
that it can grab and release. The release does a wake up if there's a
task pending on the sem, and this wake up grabs the rq locks that is
held in the scheduler. This leads to a possible deadlock if the wake up
uses the same rq as the one with the rq lock held already.
What printk_sched() does is to save the printk write in a per cpu buffer
and sets the PRINTK_PENDING_SCHED flag. On a timer tick, if this flag is
set, the printk() is done against the buffer.
There's a couple of issues with this approach.
1) If two printk_sched()s are called before the tick, the second one
will overwrite the first one.
2) The temporary buffer is 512 bytes and is per cpu. This is a quite a
bit of space wasted for something that is seldom used.
In order to remove this, the printk_sched() can use the printk buffer
instead, and delay the console_trylock()/console_unlock() to the queued
work.
Because printk_sched() would then be taking the logbuf_lock, the
logbuf_lock must not be held while doing anything that may call into the
scheduler functions, which includes wake ups. Unfortunately, printk()
also has a console_sem that it uses, and on release, the up(&console_sem)
may do a wake up of any pending waiters. This must be avoided while
holding the logbuf_lock.

We need interrupts disabled when calling console_trylock_for_printk()
only so that cpu id we pass to can_use_console() remains valid (for
other things console_sem provides all the exclusion we need and
deadlocks on console_sem due to interrupts are impossible because we use
down_trylock()). However if we are rescheduled, we are guaranteed to
run on an online cpu so we can easily just get the cpu id in
can_use_console().
We can lose a bit of performance when we enable interrupts in
vprintk_emit() and then disable them again in console_unlock() but OTOH
it can somewhat reduce interrupt latency caused by console_unlock()
especially since later in the patch series we will want to spin on
console_sem in console_trylock_for_printk().

There's no reason to hold lockbuf_lock when entering
console_trylock_for_printk().
The first thing this function does is to call down_trylock(console_sem)
and if that fails it immediately unlocks lockbuf_lock. So lockbuf_lock
isn't needed for that branch. When down_trylock() succeeds, the rest of
console_trylock() is OK without lockbuf_lock (it is called without it
from other places), and the only remaining thing in
console_trylock_for_printk() is can_use_console() call. For that call
console_sem is enough (it iterates all consoles and checks CON_ANYTIME
flag).
So we drop logbuf_lock before entering console_trylock_for_printk() which
simplifies the code.

Comment about interesting interlocking between lockbuf_lock and
console_sem is outdated.
It was added in 2002 by commit a880f45a48be during conversion of
console_lock to console_sem + lockbuf_lock.
At that time release_console_sem() (today's equivalent is
console_unlock()) was indeed using lockbuf_lock to avoid races between
trylock on console_sem in printk() and unlock of console_sem. However
these days the interlocking is gone and the races are avoided by
rechecking logbuf state after releasing console_sem.

I wonder if anyone uses printk return value but it is there and should be
counted correctly.
This patch modifies log_store() to return the number of really stored
bytes from the 'text' part. Also it handles the return value in
vprintk_emit().
Note that log_store() is used also in cont_flush() but we could ignore the
return value there. The function works with characters that were already
counted earlier. In addition, the store could newer fail here because the
length of the printed text is limited by the "cont" buffer and "dict" is
NULL.

We might want to print at least part of too long messages and add some
warning for debugging purpose.
The question is how long the shrunken message should be. If we use the
whole buffer, it might get rotated too soon. Let's try to use only 1/4 of
the buffer for now.
Also shrink the whole dictionary. We do not want to parse it or break it
in the middle of some pair of values. It would not cause any real harm
but still.

There was no check for too long messages. The check for free space always
passed when first_seq and next_seq were equal. Enough free space was not
guaranteed, though.
log_store() might be called to store messages up to 64kB + 64kB + 16B.
This is sum of maximal text_len, dict_len values, and the size of the
structure printk_log.
On the other hand, the minimal size for the main log buffer currently is
4kB and it is enforced only by Kconfig.
The good news is that the usage looks safe right now. log_store() is
called only from vprintk_emit() and cont_flush(). Here the "text" part is
always passed via a static buffer and the length is limited to
LOG_LINE_MAX which is 1024. The "dict" part is NULL in most cases. The
only exceptions is when vprintk_emit() is called from printk_emit() and
dev_vprintk_emit(). But printk_emit() is currently used only in
devkmsg_writev() and here "dict" is NULL as well. In dev_vprintk_emit(),
"dict" is limited by the static buffer "hdr" of the size 128 bytes. It
meas that the current maximal printed text is 1024B + 128B + 16B and it
always fit the log buffer.
But it is only matter of time when someone calls printk_emit() with unsafe
parameters, especially the "dict" one.
This patch adds a check for the free space when the buffer is empty. It
reuses the already existing log_has_space() function but it has to add an
extra parameter. It defines whether the buffer is empty. Note that the
same values of "first_idx" and "next_idx" might also mean that the buffer
is full.
If the buffer is empty, we must respect the current position of the
indexes. We cannot reset them to the beginning of the buffer. Otherwise,
the functions reading the buffer would get crazy.
The question is what to do when the message is too long. This patch uses
the easiest solution and just ignores the problematic message. Let's do
something better in a followup patch.

The check for free space in the log buffer always passes when "first_seq"
and "next_seq" are equal. In theory, it might cause writing outside of
the log buffer.
Fortunately, the current usage looks safe because the used "text" and
"dict" buffers are quite limited. See the second patch for more details.
Anyway, it is better to be on the safe side and add a check. An easy
solution is done in the 2nd patch and it is improved in the 4th patch.
5th patch fixes the computation of the printed message length.
1st and 3rd patches just do some code refactoring to make the other
patches easier.
This patch (of 5):
There will be needed some fixes in the check for free space. They will be
easier if the code is moved outside of the quite long log_store()
function.

Currently to allocate a page that should be charged to kmemcg (e.g.
threadinfo), we pass __GFP_KMEMCG flag to the page allocator. The page
allocated is then to be freed by free_memcg_kmem_pages. Apart from
looking asymmetrical, this also requires intrusion to the general
allocation path. So let's introduce separate functions that will
alloc/free pages charged to kmemcg.
The new functions are called alloc_kmem_pages and free_kmem_pages. They
should be used when the caller actually would like to use kmalloc, but
has to fall back to the page allocator for the allocation is large.
They only differ from alloc_pages and free_pages in that besides
allocating or freeing pages they also charge them to the kmem resource
counter of the current memory cgroup.

Pull ACPI and power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"ACPICA is the leader this time (63 commits), followed by cpufreq (28
commits), devfreq (15 commits), system suspend/hibernation (12
commits), ACPI video and ACPI device enumeration (10 commits each).
We have no major new features this time, but there are a few
significant changes of how things work. The most visible one will
probably be that we are now going to create platform devices rather
than PNP devices by default for ACPI device objects with _HID. That
was long overdue and will be really necessary to be able to use the
same drivers for the same hardware blocks on ACPI and DT-based systems
going forward. We're not expecting fallout from this one (as usual),
but it's something to watch nevertheless.
The second change having a chance to be visible is that ACPI video
will now default to using native backlight rather than the ACPI
backlight interface which should generally help systems with broken
Win8 BIOSes. We're hoping that all problems with the native backlight
handling that we had previously have been addressed and we are in a
good enough shape to flip the default, but this change should be easy
enough to revert if need be.
In addition to that, the system suspend core has a new mechanism to
allow runtime-suspended devices to stay suspended throughout system
suspend/resume transitions if some extra conditions are met
(generally, they are related to coordination within device hierarchy).
However, enabling this feature requires cooperation from the bus type
layer and for now it has only been implemented for the ACPI PM domain
(used by ACPI-enumerated platform devices mostly today).
Also, the acpidump utility that was previously shipped as a separate
tool will now be provided by the upstream ACPICA along with the rest
of ACPICA code, which will allow it to be more up to date and better
supported, and we have one new cpuidle driver (ARM clps711x).
The rest is improvements related to certain specific use cases,
cleanups and fixes all over the place.
Specifics:
- ACPICA update to upstream version 20140424. That includes a number
of fixes and improvements related to things like GPE handling,
table loading, headers, memory mapping and unmapping, DSDT/SSDT

If allocation of the max_buffer fails on boot up, the error path will
free both per_cpu data structures from the buffers. With the new redesign
of the code, those structures are freed if allocations failed. That is,
the helper function that allocates the buffers will free the per cpu data
on failure. No need to do it again. In fact, the second free will cause
a bug as the code can not handle a double free.

This patch finally allows us to get rid of the BPF_S_* enum.
Currently, the code performs unnecessary encode and decode
workarounds in seccomp and filter migration itself when a filter
is being attached in order to overcome BPF_S_* encoding which
is not used anymore by the new interpreter resp. JIT compilers.
Keeping it around would mean that also in future we would need
to extend and maintain this enum and related encoders/decoders.
We can get rid of all that and save us these operations during
filter attaching. Naturally, also JIT compilers need to be updated
by this.
Before JIT conversion is being done, each compiler checks if A
is being loaded at startup to obtain information if it needs to
emit instructions to clear A first. Since BPF extensions are a
subset of BPF_LD | BPF_{W,H,B} | BPF_ABS variants, case statements
for extensions can be removed at that point. To ease and minimalize
code changes in the classic JITs, we have introduced bpf_anc_helper().
Tested with test_bpf on x86_64 (JIT, int), s390x (JIT, int),
arm (JIT, int), i368 (int), ppc64 (JIT, int); for sparc we
unfortunately didn't have access, but changes are analogous to
the rest.

With the conversion of the saved_cmdlines output to use seq_read, there
is now a race between accessing the values of the saved_cmdlines and
the writing to them. The trace_cmdline_lock needs to be taken at
the start and stop of the seq calls.
A new __trace_find_cmdline() call is created to allow for the look up
to happen without taking the lock.
Fixes: 42584c81c5 tracing: Have saved_cmdlines use the seq_read infrastructure
Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
In order to prevent the saved cmdline cache from being filled when
tracing is not active, the comms are only recorded after a trace event
is recorded.
The problem is, a comm can fail to be recorded if the trace_cmdline_lock
is held. That lock is taken via a trylock to allow it to happen from
any context (including NMI). If the lock fails to be taken, the comm
is skipped. No big deal, as we will try again later.
But! Because of the code that was added to only record after an event,
we may not try again later as the recording is made as a oneshot per
event per CPU.
Only disable the recording of the comm if the comm is actually recorded.

Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
Current tracing_saved_cmdlines_read() implementation is naive; It allocates
a large buffer, constructs output data to that buffer for each read
operation, and then copies a portion of the buffer to the user space
buffer. This has several issues such as slow memory allocation, high
CPU usage, and even corruption of the output data.
The seq_read infrastructure is made to handle this type of work.
By converting it to use seq_read() the code becomes smaller, simplified,
as well as correct.

In order to help benchmark the time tracepoints take, a new config
option is added called CONFIG_TRACEPOINT_BENCHMARK. When this option
is set a tracepoint is created called "benchmark:benchmark_event".
When the tracepoint is enabled, it kicks off a kernel thread that
goes into an infinite loop (calling cond_sched() to let other tasks
run), and calls the tracepoint. Each iteration will record the time
it took to write to the tracepoint and the next iteration that
data will be passed to the tracepoint itself. That is, the tracepoint
will report the time it took to do the previous tracepoint.
The string written to the tracepoint is a static string of 128 bytes
to keep the time the same. The initial string is simply a write of
"START". The second string records the cold cache time of the first
write which is not added to the rest of the calculations.
As it is a tight loop, it benchmarks as hot cache. That's fine because
we care most about hot paths that are probably in cache already.
An example of the output:
START
first=3672 [COLD CACHED]
last=632 first=3672 max=632 min=632 avg=316 std=446 std^2=199712
last=278 first=3672 max=632 min=278 avg=303 std=316 std^2=100337

trace_printk() is used to debug fast paths within the kernel. Places
that gets called in any context (interrupt or NMI) or thousands of
times a second. Something you do not want to do with a printk().
In order to make it completely lockless as it needs a temporary buffer
to handle some of the string formatting, a page is created per cpu for
every context (four per cpu; normal, softirq, irq, NMI).
Since trace_printk() should only be used for debugging purposes,
there's no reason to waste memory on these buffers on a production
system. That means, trace_printk() should never be used unless a
developer is debugging their kernel. There's macro magic to allocate
the buffers if trace_printk() is used anywhere in the kernel.
To help enforce that trace_printk() isn't used outside of development,
when it is used, a nasty banner is displayed on bootup (or when a module
is loaded that uses trace_printk() and the kernel core does not).
Here's the banner:
**********************************************************
** NOTICE NOTICE NOTICE NOTICE NOTICE NOTICE NOTICE **
** **
** trace_printk() being used. Allocating extra memory. **
** **
** This means that this is a DEBUG kernel and it is **
** unsafe for produciton use. **
** **
** If you see this message and you are not debugging **
** the kernel, report this immediately to your vendor! **
** **
** NOTICE NOTICE NOTICE NOTICE NOTICE NOTICE NOTICE **
**********************************************************
That should hopefully keep developers from trying to sneak in a
trace_printk() or two.

Commit 5f5c9ae56c
"serial_core: Unregister console in uart_remove_one_port()"
fixed a crash where a serial port was removed but
not deregistered as a console.
There is a side effect of that commit for platforms having serial consoles
and of_serial configured (CONFIG_SERIAL_OF_PLATFORM). The serial console
is disabled midway through the boot process.
This cessation of the serial console affects PowerPC computers
such as the MVME5100 and SAM440EP.
The sequence is:
bootconsole [udbg0] enabled
....
serial8250/16550 driver initialises and registers its UARTS,
one of these is the serial console.
console [ttyS0] enabled
....
of_serial probes "platform" devices, registering them as it goes.
One of these is the serial console.
console [ttyS0] disabled.
The disabling of the serial console is due to:
a. unregister_console in printk not clearing the
CONS_ENABLED bit in the console flags,
even though it has announced that the console is disabled; and
b. of_platform_serial_probe in of_serial not setting the port type
before it registers with serial8250_register_8250_port.
This patch ensures that the serial console is re-enabled when of_serial
registers a serial port that corresponds to the designated console.

The above failure was identified in Linux-3.15-rc2.
Tested using MVME5100 and SAM440EP PowerPC computers with

such as the MVME5100 as that Single Board Computer does not

The current deadlock detection logic does not work reliably due to the
following early exit path:
/*
* Drop out, when the task has no waiters. Note,
* top_waiter can be NULL, when we are in the deboosting
* mode!
*/
if (top_waiter && (!task_has_pi_waiters(task) ||
top_waiter != task_top_pi_waiter(task)))
goto out_unlock_pi;
So this not only exits when the task has no waiters, it also exits
unconditionally when the current waiter is not the top priority waiter
of the task.
So in a nested locking scenario, it might abort the lock chain walk
and therefor miss a potential deadlock.
Simple fix: Continue the chain walk, when deadlock detection is
enabled.
We also avoid the whole enqueue, if we detect the deadlock right away
(A-A). It's an optimization, but also prevents that another waiter who
comes in after the detection and before the task has undone the damage
observes the situation and detects the deadlock and returns
-EDEADLOCK, which is wrong as the other task is not in a deadlock
situation.

One's a fix for building with newer binutils (the problem currently
only affects the BookE kernels but the affected macro might come back
into use on BookS platforms at any time). Unfortunately, the binutils
maintainer did a backward incompatible change to a construct that we
use so we have to add Makefile check.
The other one is a fix for CPUs getting stuck in kexec when running
single threaded. Since we routinely use kexec on power (including in
our newer bootloaders), I deemed that important enough"

This commit did an incorrect printk->pr_info conversion. If we were
converting to pr_info() we should lose the log_level parameter. The problem is
that this is called (indirectly) by show_regs_print_info(), which is called
with various log_levels (from _INFO clear to _EMERG). So we leave it as
a printk() call so the desired log_level is applied.
Not a full revert, as the other half of the patch is correct.

If we try to perform a kexec when the machine is in ST (Single-Threaded) mode
(ppc64_cpu --smt=off), the kexec operation doesn't succeed properly, and we
get the following messages during boot:

Note that only the sibling threads are stuck, while the primary threads (0, 8,
16 etc) boot just fine. Looking closer at the previous step of kexec, we observe
that kexec tries to wakeup (bring online) the sibling threads of all the cores,
before performing kexec:
[ 9464.131231] Starting new kernel
[ 9464.148507] kexec: Waking offline cpu 1.

[ 9464.149030] kexec: Waking offline cpu 17.
Instrumenting this piece of code revealed that the cpu_up() operation actually
fails with -EBUSY. Thus, only the primary threads of all the cores are online
during kexec, and hence this is a sure-shot receipe for disaster, as explained
in commit e8e5c2155b (powerpc/kexec: Fix orphaned offline CPUs across kexec),
as well as in the comment above wake_offline_cpus().
It turns out that cpu_up() was returning -EBUSY because the variable
'cpu_hotplug_disabled' was set to 1; and this disabling of CPU hotplug was done
by migrate_to_reboot_cpu() inside kernel_kexec().
Now, migrate_to_reboot_cpu() was originally written with the assumption that
any further code will not need to perform CPU hotplug, since we are anyway in
the reboot path. However, kexec is clearly not such a case, since we depend on
onlining CPUs, atleast on powerpc.
So re-enable cpu-hotplug after returning from migrate_to_reboot_cpu() in the
kexec path, to fix this regression in kexec on powerpc.
Also, wrap the cpu_up() in powerpc kexec code within a WARN_ON(), so that we
can catch such issues more easily in the future.

On some systems the platform doesn't support neither
PM_SUSPEND_MEM nor PM_SUSPEND_STANDBY, so PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE is the
only available system sleep state. However, some user space frameworks
only use the "mem" and (sometimes) "standby" sleep state labels, so
the users of those systems need to modify user space in order to be
able to use system suspend at all and that is not always possible.
For this reason, add a new kernel command line argument,
relative_sleep_states, allowing the users of those systems to change
the way in which the kernel assigns labels to system sleep states.
Namely, for relative_sleep_states=1, the "mem", "standby" and "freeze"
labels will enumerate the available system sleem states from the
deepest to the shallowest, respectively, so that "mem" is always
present in /sys/power/state and the other state strings may or may
not be presend depending on what is supported by the platform.
Update system sleep states documentation to reflect this change.

Use the observation that, for platform-dependent sleep states
(PM_SUSPEND_STANDBY, PM_SUSPEND_MEM), a given state is either
always supported or always unsupported and store that information
in pm_states[] instead of calling valid_state() every time we
need to check it.
Also do not use valid_state() for PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE, which is always
valid, and move the pm_test_level validity check for PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE
directly into enter_state().
Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>
To allow sleep states corresponding to the "mem", "standby" and
"freeze" lables to be different from the pm_states[] indexes of
those strings, introduce struct pm_sleep_state, consisting of
a string label and a state number, and turn pm_states[] into an
array of objects of that type.
This modification should not lead to any functional changes.

After instruction write into xol area, on ARM V7
architecture code need to flush dcache and icache to sync
them up for given set of addresses. Having just
'flush_dcache_page(page)' call is not enough - it is
possible to have stale instruction sitting in icache
for given xol area slot address.
Introduce arch_uprobe_ixol_copy weak function
that by default calls uprobes copy_to_page function and
than flush_dcache_page function and on ARM define new one
that handles xol slot copy in ARM specific way
flush_uprobe_xol_access function shares/reuses implementation
with/of flush_ptrace_access function and takes care of writing
instruction to user land address space on given variety of
different cache types on ARM CPUs. Because
flush_uprobe_xol_access does not have vma around
flush_ptrace_access was split into two parts. First that
retrieves set of condition from vma and common that receives
those conditions as flags.
Note ARM cache flush function need kernel address
through which instruction write happened, so instead
of using uprobes copy_to_page function changed
code to explicitly map page and do memcpy.
Note arch_uprobe_copy_ixol function, in similar way as
copy_to_user_page function, has preempt_disable/preempt_enable.

Currently, the global freezing state is propagated to worker_pools via
POOL_FREEZING and then to each workqueue; however, the middle step -
propagation through worker_pools - can be skipped as long as one or
more max_active adjustments happens for each workqueue after the
update to the global state is visible. The global workqueue freezing
state and the max_active adjustments during workqueue creation and
[un]freezing are serialized with wq_pool_mutex, so it's trivial to
guarantee that max_actives stay in sync with global freezing state.
POOL_FREEZING is unnecessary and makes the code more confusing and
complicates freeze_workqueues_begin() and thaw_workqueues() by
requiring them to walk through all pools.
Remove POOL_FREEZING and use workqueue_freezing directly instead.

Affine wakeups have the potential to interfere with NUMA placement.
If a task wakes up too many other tasks, affine wakeups will get
disabled.
However, regardless of how many other tasks it wakes up, it gets
re-enabled once a second, potentially interfering with NUMA
placement of other tasks.
By decaying wakee_wakes in half instead of zeroing it, we can avoid
that problem for some workloads.

Update the migrate_improves/degrades_locality() functions with
knowledge of pseudo-interleaving.
Do not consider moving tasks around within the set of group's active
nodes as improving or degrading locality. Instead, leave the load
balancer free to balance the load between a numa_group's active nodes.
Also, switch from the group/task_weight functions to the group/task_fault
functions. The "weight" functions involve a division, but both calls use
the same divisor, so there's no point in doing that from these functions.
On a 4 node (x10 core) system, performance of SPECjbb2005 seems
unaffected, though the number of migrations with 2 8-warehouse wide
instances seems to have almost halved, due to the scheduler running
each instance on a single node.

If the sched_clock time starts at a large value, the kernel will spin
in sched_avg_update for a long time while rq->age_stamp catches up
with rq->clock.
The comment in kernel/sched/clock.c says that there is no strict promise
that it starts at zero. So initialize rq->age_stamp when a cpu starts up
to avoid this.
I was seeing long delays on a simulator that didn't start the clock at
zero. This might also be an issue on reboots on processors that don't
re-initialize the timer to zero on reset, and when using kexec.

Currently, in idle_balance(), we update rq->next_balance when we pull_tasks.
However, it is also important to update this in the !pulled_tasks case too.
When the CPU is "busy" (the CPU isn't idle), rq->next_balance gets computed
using sd->busy_factor (so we increase the balance interval when the CPU is
busy). However, when the CPU goes idle, rq->next_balance could still be set
to a large value that was computed with the sd->busy_factor.
Thus, we need to also update rq->next_balance in idle_balance() in the cases
where !pulled_tasks too, so that rq->next_balance gets updated without taking
the busy_factor into account when the CPU is about to go idle.
This patch makes rq->next_balance get updated independently of whether or
not we pulled_task. Also, we add logic to ensure that we always traverse
at least 1 of the sched domains to get a proper next_balance value for
updating rq->next_balance.
Additionally, since load_balance() modifies the sd->balance_interval, we
need to re-obtain the sched domain's interval after the call to
load_balance() in rebalance_domains() before we update rq->next_balance.
This patch adds and uses 2 new helper functions, update_next_balance() and
get_sd_balance_interval() to update next_balance and obtain the sched
domain's balance_interval.

The current implementation doesn't add this last row in the computation of the

last row of the table. The kzalloc will ensure that the mask field is NULL.

On smaller systems, the top level sched domain will be an affine
domain, and select_idle_sibling is invoked for every SD_WAKE_AFFINE

On larger systems, with the node distance between far away NUMA nodes
being > RECLAIM_DISTANCE, select_idle_sibling is only called if the
waker and the wakee are on nodes less than RECLAIM_DISTANCE apart.
This patch leaves in place the policy of not pulling the task across
nodes on such systems, while fixing the issue that select_idle_sibling
is not called at all in certain circumstances.
The code will look for an idle CPU in the same CPU package as the

Michael Kerrisk noticed that creating SCHED_DEADLINE reservations
with certain parameters (e.g, a runtime of something near 2^64 ns)
can cause a system freeze for some amount of time.
The problem is that in the interface we have
u64 sched_runtime;
while internally we need to have a signed runtime (to cope with
budget overruns)
s64 runtime;
At the time we setup a new dl_entity we copy the first value in
the second. The cast turns out with negative values when
sched_runtime is too big, and this causes the scheduler to go crazy
right from the start.
Moreover, considering how we deal with deadlines wraparound
(s64)(a - b) < 0
we also have to restrict acceptable values for sched_{deadline,period}.
This patch fixes the thing checking that user parameters are always
below 2^63 ns (still large enough for everyone).
It also rewrites other conditions that we check, since in
__checkparam_dl we don't have to deal with deadline wraparounds
and what we have now erroneously fails when the difference between
values is too big.

The documented[1] behavior of sched_attr() in the proposed man page text is:
sched_attr::size must be set to the size of the structure, as in
sizeof(struct sched_attr), if the provided structure is smaller
than the kernel structure, any additional fields are assumed
'0'. If the provided structure is larger than the kernel structure,
the kernel verifies all additional fields are '0' if not the
syscall will fail with -E2BIG.
As currently implemented, sched_copy_attr() returns -EFBIG for
for this case, but the logic in sys_sched_setattr() converts that
error to -EFAULT. This patch fixes the behavior.

that while holding a spin lock. cgroup_freezer was using an overly
elaborate hierarchical locking scheme.
While it's possible to convert the hierarchical spinlocks directly to
mutexes, this patch simplifies the overall locking so that it uses a
global mutex. This has the added benefit of avoiding iterating
potentially huge number of tasks under a spinlock. While the patch is
on the larger side in the devel cycle, the changes made are mostly
straight-forward and the locking logic is a lot simpler afterwards"

There are several problems with the code that rescuers use to bind
themselve to the target pool's cpumask.
1) It is very different from how the normal workers bind to cpumask,
increasing code complexity and maintenance overhead.
2) The code of cpu-binding for rescuers is complicated.
3) If one or more cpu hotplugs happen while a rescuer is processing
its scheduled work items, the rescuer may not stay bound to the
cpumask of the pool. This is an allowed behavior, but is still
hairy. It will be better if the cpumask of the rescuer is always
kept synchronized with the pool across cpu hotplugs.
Using generic attach/detach routine will solve the above problems and
results in much simpler code.

manager_mutex is only used to protect the attaching for the pool
and the pool->workers list. It protects the pool->workers and operations
based on this list, such as:
cpu-binding for the workers in the pool->workers
the operations to set/clear WORKER_UNBOUND
So let's rename manager_mutex to attach_mutex to better reflect its
role. This patch is a pure rename.

In create_worker(), as pool->worker_ida now uses
ida_simple_get()/ida_simple_put() and doesn't require external
synchronization, it doesn't need manager_mutex.
struct worker allocation and kthread allocation are not visible by any
one before attached, so they don't need manager_mutex either.
The above operations are before the attaching operation which attaches
the worker to the pool. Between attaching and starting the worker, the
worker is already attached to the pool, so the cpu hotplug will handle
cpu-binding for the worker correctly and we don't need the
manager_mutex after attaching.
The conclusion is that only the attaching operation needs manager_mutex,
so we narrow the protection section of manager_mutex in create_worker().
Some comments about manager_mutex are removed, because we will rename
it to attach_mutex and add worker_attach_to_pool() later which will be
self-explanatory.

We no longer iterate workers via worker_idr and worker_idr is used
only for allocating/freeing ID, so we can convert it to worker_ida.
By using ida_simple_get/remove(), worker_ida doesn't require external
synchronization, so we don't need manager_mutex to protect it and the
ID-removal code is allowed to be moved out from
worker_detach_from_pool().
In a later patch, worker_detach_from_pool() will be used in rescuers
which don't have IDs, so we move the ID-removal code out from

worker_idr has the iteration (iterating for attached workers) and
worker ID duties. These two duties don't have to be tied together. We
can separate them and use a list for tracking attached workers and
iteration.
Before this separation, it wasn't possible to add rescuer workers to
worker_idr due to rescuer workers couldn't allocate ID dynamically
because ID-allocation depends on memory-allocation, which rescuer
can't depend on.
After separation, we can easily add the rescuer workers to the list for
iteration without any memory-allocation. It is required when we attach
the rescuer worker to the pool in later patch.

Since destroy_worker() doesn't need to sleep nor require manager_mutex,
destroy_worker() can be directly called in the idle timeout
handler, it helps us remove POOL_MANAGE_WORKERS and
maybe_destroy_worker() and simplify the manage_workers()
After POOL_MANAGE_WORKERS is removed, worker_thread() doesn't
need to test whether it needs to manage after processed works.
So we can remove the test branch.

worker destruction includes these parts of code:
adjust pool's stats
remove the worker from idle list
detach the worker from the pool
kthread_stop() to wait for the worker's task exit
free the worker struct
We can find out that there is no essential work to do after
kthread_stop(), which means destroy_worker() doesn't need to wait for
the worker's task exit, so we can remove kthread_stop() and free the
worker struct in the worker exiting path.
However, put_unbound_pool() still needs to sync the all the workers'
destruction before destroying the pool; otherwise, the workers may
access to the invalid pool when they are exiting.
So we also move the code of "detach the worker" to the exiting
path and let put_unbound_pool() to sync with this code via
detach_completion.
The code of "detach the worker" is wrapped in a new function
"worker_detach_from_pool()" although worker_detach_from_pool() is only
called once (in worker_thread()) after this patch, but we need to wrap
it for these reasons:
1) The code of "detach the worker" is not short enough to unfold them
in worker_thread().
2) the name of "worker_detach_from_pool()" is self-comment, and we add
some comments above the function.
3) it will be shared by rescuer in later patch which allows rescuer
and normal thread use the same attach/detach frameworks.
The worker id is freed when detaching which happens before the worker
is fully dead, but this id of the dying worker may be re-used for a
new worker, so the dying worker's task name is changed to
"worker/dying" to avoid two or several workers having the same name.
Since "detach the worker" is moved out from destroy_worker(),
destroy_worker() doesn't require manager_mutex, so the
"lockdep_assert_held(&pool->manager_mutex)" in destroy_worker() is
removed, and destroy_worker() is not protected by manager_mutex in
put_unbound_pool().

We used to have the CPU online failure path where a worker is created
and then destroyed without being started. A worker was created for
the CPU coming online and if the online operation failed the created worker
was shut down without being started. But this behavior was changed.
The first worker is created and started at the same time for the CPU coming
online.
It means that we had already ensured in the code that destroy_worker()
destroys only idle workers and we don't want to allow it to destroy
any non-idle worker in the future. Otherwise, it may be buggy and it
may be extremely hard to check. We should force destroy_worker() to
destroy only idle workers explicitly.
Since destroy_worker() destroys only idle workers, this patch does not
change any functionality. We just need to update the comments and the
sanity check code.
In the sanity check code, we will refuse to destroy the worker
if !(worker->flags & WORKER_IDLE).
If the worker entered idle which means it is already started,
so we remove the check of "worker->flags & WORKER_STARTED",
after this removal, WORKER_STARTED is totally unneeded,
so we remove WORKER_STARTED too.
In the comments for create_worker(), "Create a new worker which is bound..."
is changed to "... which is attached..." due to we change the name of this
behavior to attaching.

The debug controller, as its name suggests, exposes cgroup core
internals to userland to aid debugging. Unfortunately, except for the
name, there's no provision to prevent its usage in production
configurations and the controller is widely enabled and mounted
leaking internal details to userland. Like most other debug
information, the information exposed by debug isn't interesting even
for debugging itself once the related parts are working reliably.
This controller has no reason for existing. This patch implements
cgrp_dfl_root_inhibit_ss_mask which can suppress specific subsystems
on the default hierarchy and adds the debug subsystem to it so that it
can be gradually deprecated as usages move towards the unified

Alexander noticed that we use RCU iteration on rb->event_list but do
not use list_{add,del}_rcu() to add,remove entries to that list, nor
do we observe proper grace periods when re-using the entries.
Merge ring_buffer_detach() into ring_buffer_attach() such that
attaching to the NULL buffer is detaching.
Furthermore, ensure that between any 'detach' and 'attach' of the same
event we observe the required grace period, but only when strictly
required. In effect this means that only ioctl(.request =
PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_OUTPUT) will wait for a grace period, while the
normal initial attach and final detach will not be delayed.
This patch should, I think, do the right thing under all
circumstances, the 'normal' cases all should never see the extra grace
period, but the two cases:
1) PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_OUTPUT on an event which already has a
ring_buffer set, will now observe the required grace period between
removing itself from the old and attaching itself to the new buffer.
This case is 'simple' in that both buffers are present in
perf_event_set_output() one could think an unconditional
synchronize_rcu() would be sufficient; however...
2) an event that has a buffer attached, the buffer is destroyed
(munmap) and then the event is attached to a new/different buffer
using PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_OUTPUT.
This case is more complex because the buffer destruction does:
ring_buffer_attach(.rb = NULL)
followed by the ioctl() doing:
ring_buffer_attach(.rb = foo);
and we still need to observe the grace period between these two
calls due to us reusing the event->rb_entry list_head.
In order to make 2 happen we use Paul's latest cond_synchronize_rcu()
call.

The perf cpu offline callback takes down all cpu context
events and releases swhash->swevent_hlist.
This could race with task context software event being just

The race happens in the gap between the cpu notifier code
and the cpu being actually taken down. Note that only cpu

That underlying issue has been fixed with a patch to the rtmutex code,

- it can detect that issue early
- it avoids a different and more complex fixup for backing out
If the user space variable got manipulated to 0x80000000 which means
no lock holder, but the waiters bit set and an active pi_state in the
kernel is found we can figure out the recursive locking issue by
looking at the pi_state owner. If that is the current task, then we

Currently, css_next_child() is implemented as finding the next child
cgroup which has the css enabled, which used to be the only way to do
it as only cgroups participated in sibling lists and thus could be
iteratd. This works as long as what's required during iteration is
not missing online csses; however, it turns out that there are use
cases where offlined but not yet released csses need to be iterated.
This is difficult to implement through cgroup iteration the unified
hierarchy as there may be multiple dying csses for the same subsystem
associated with single cgroup.
After the recent changes, the cgroup self and regular csses behave
identically in how they're linked and unlinked from the sibling lists
including assertion of CSS_RELEASED and css_next_child() can simply
switch to iterating csses directly. This both simplifies the logic
and ensures that all visible non-released csses are included in the
iteration whether there are multiple dying csses for a subsystem or
not.
As all other iterators depend on css_next_child() for sibling
iteration, this changes behaviors of all css iterators. Add and
update explanations on the css states which are included in traversal
to all iterators.
As css iteration could always contain offlined csses, this shouldn't
break any of the current users and new usages which need iteration of
all on and offline csses can make use of the new semantics.

css iterations allow the caller to drop RCU read lock. As long as the
caller keeps the current position accessible, it can simply re-grab
RCU read lock later and continue iteration. This is achieved by using
CGRP_DEAD to detect whether the current positions next pointer is safe
to dereference and if not re-iterate from the beginning to the next
position using ->serial_nr.
CGRP_DEAD is used as the marker to invalidate the next pointer and the
only requirement is that the marker is set before the next sibling
starts its RCU grace period. Because CGRP_DEAD is set at the end of
cgroup_destroy_locked() but the cgroup is unlinked when the reference
count reaches zero, we currently have a rather large window where this
fallback re-iteration logic can be triggered.
This patch introduces CSS_RELEASED which is set when a css is unlinked
from its sibling list. This still keeps the re-iteration logic
working while drastically reducing the window of its activation.
While at it, rewrite the comment in css_next_child() to reflect the
new flag and better explain the synchronization.
This will also enable iterating csses directly instead of through
cgroups.

We're moving towards using cgroup_subsys_states as the fundamental
structural blocks. All csses including the cgroup->self and actual
ones now form trees through css->children and ->sibling which follow
the same rules as what cgroup->children and ->sibling followed. This
patch moves cgroup->serial_nr which is used to implement css iteration
into css.
Note that all csses, regardless of their types, allocate their serial

9395a45004 ("cgroup: enable refcnting for root csses") enabled
reference counting for root csses (cgroup_subsys_states) so that
cgroup's self csses can be used to manage the lifetime of the
containing cgroups.
Unfortunately, this change was incorrect. During early init,
cgrp_dfl_root self css refcnt is used. percpu_ref can't initialized
during early init and its initialization is deferred till
cgroup_init() time. This means that cpu was using percpu_ref which
wasn't properly initialized. Due to the way percpu variables are laid
out on x86, this didn't blow up immediately on x86 but ended up
incrementing and decrementing the percpu variable at offset zero,
whatever it may be; however, on other archs, this caused fault and
early boot failure.
As cgroup self csses for root cgroups of non-dfl hierarchies need
working refcounting, we can't revert 9395a45004. This patch adds
CSS_NO_REF which explicitly inhibits reference counting on the css and
sets it on all normal (non-self) csses and cgroup_dfl_root self css.
v2: cgrp_dfl_root.self is the offending one. Set the flag on it.

Not really the solution to the problem, but at least it confines the
mess in the core code and allows to get rid of the create/destroy_irq
variants from hell, i.e. 3 implementations with different semantics
plus the x86 specific variants __create_irqs and create_irq_nr
which have been invented in another circle of hell.
x86 : x86 should be converted to irq domains and I'm deliberately
making it impossible to do the multi-vector MSI support by
adding more crap to the current mess. It's not that hard to do
and I'm really tired of the trainwrecks which have been invented
by baindaid engineering so far. Any attempt to do multi-vector
MSI or ioapic hotplug without converting to irq domains is NAKed
hereby.
tile: Might use irq domains as well, but it has a very limited
interrupt space, so handling it via this functionality might be
the right thing to do even in the long run.
ia64: That's an hopeless case, as I doubt that anyone has the stomach
to rewrite the homebrewn dynamic allocation facilities. I stared
at it for a couple of hours and gave up. The create/destroy_irq
mess could be made private to itanic right away if there
wouldn't be the iommu/dmar driver being shared with x86. So to
do that I'm going to add a separate ia64 specific implementation
later in order not to deep-six itanic right away.

Being able to show a cpumask of events can be useful as some events
may affect only some CPUs. There is no standard way to record the
cpumask and converting it to a string is rather expensive during
the trace as traces happen in hotpaths. It would be better to record
the raw event mask and be able to parse it at print time.
The following macros were added for use with the TRACE_EVENT() macro:
__bitmask()
__assign_bitmask()
__get_bitmask()
To test this, I added this to the sched_migrate_task event, which
looked like this:
TRACE_EVENT(sched_migrate_task,
TP_PROTO(struct task_struct *p, int dest_cpu, const struct cpumask *cpus),
TP_ARGS(p, dest_cpu, cpus),
TP_STRUCT__entry(
__array( char, comm, TASK_COMM_LEN )
__field( pid_t, pid )
__field( int, prio )
__field( int, orig_cpu )
__field( int, dest_cpu )
__bitmask( cpumask, num_possible_cpus() )
),
TP_fast_assign(
memcpy(__entry->comm, p->comm, TASK_COMM_LEN);
__entry->pid = p->pid;
__entry->prio = p->prio;
__entry->orig_cpu = task_cpu(p);
__entry->dest_cpu = dest_cpu;
__assign_bitmask(cpumask, cpumask_bits(cpus), num_possible_cpus());
),
TP_printk("comm=%s pid=%d prio=%d orig_cpu=%d dest_cpu=%d cpumask=%s",
__entry->comm, __entry->pid, __entry->prio,
__entry->orig_cpu, __entry->dest_cpu,
__get_bitmask(cpumask))
);

Given a CPU running a loop containing cond_resched(), with no
other tasks runnable on that CPU, RCU will eventually report RCU
CPU stall warnings due to lack of quiescent states. Fortunately,
every call to cond_resched() is a perfectly good quiescent state.
Unfortunately, invoking rcu_note_context_switch() is a bit heavyweight
for cond_resched(), especially given the need to disable preemption,
and, for RCU-preempt, interrupts as well.
This commit therefore maintains a per-CPU counter that causes
cond_resched(), cond_resched_lock(), and cond_resched_softirq() to call
rcu_note_context_switch(), but only about once per 256 invocations.

Currently cgroup implements refcnting separately using atomic_t
cgroup->refcnt. The destruction paths of cgroup and css are rather
complex and bear a lot of similiarities including the use of RCU and
bouncing to a work item.
This patch makes cgroup use the refcnt of self css for refcnting
instead of using its own. This makes cgroup refcnting use css's
percpu refcnt and share the destruction mechanism.
* css_release_work_fn() and css_free_work_fn() are updated to handle
both csses and cgroups. This is a bit messy but should do until we
can make cgroup->self a full css, which currently can't be done
thanks to multiple hierarchies.
* cgroup_destroy_locked() now performs
percpu_ref_kill(&cgrp->self.refcnt) instead of cgroup_put(cgrp).
* Negative refcnt sanity check in cgroup_get() is no longer necessary
as percpu_ref already handles it.
* Similarly, as a cgroup which hasn't been killed will never be
released regardless of its refcnt value and percpu_ref has sanity
check on kill, cgroup_is_dead() sanity check in cgroup_put() is no
longer necessary.
* As whether a refcnt reached zero or not can only be decided after
the reference count is killed, cgroup_root->cgrp's refcnting can no
longer be used to decide whether to kill the root or not. Let's
make cgroup_kill_sb() explicitly initiate destruction if the root
doesn't have any children. This makes sense anyway as unmounted
cgroup hierarchy without any children should be destroyed.
While this is a bit messy, this will allow pushing more bookkeeping
towards cgroup->self and thus handling cgroups and csses in more
uniform way. In the very long term, it should be possible to
introduce a base subsystem and convert the self css to a proper one
making things whole lot simpler and unified.

it doesn't break css_next_child() although there now is a larger
window in which a dead cgroup is visible during css iteration. As css
iteration always could have included offline csses, this doesn't

Currently, check_for_release() on the parent of a destroyed cgroup is
invoked from cgroup_destroy_css_killed(). This is because this is
where the destroyed cgroup can be removed from the parent's children
list. check_for_release() tests the emptiness of the list directly,
so invoking it before removing the cgroup from the list makes it think
that the parent still has children even when it no longer does.
This patch updates check_for_release() to use
cgroup_has_live_children() instead of directly testing ->children
emptiness and moves check_for_release(parent) earlier to the end of
cgroup_destroy_locked(). As cgroup_has_live_children() ignores
cgroups marked DEAD, check_for_release() functions correctly as long
as it's called after asserting DEAD.
This makes release notification slightly more timely and more
importantly enables further simplification of cgroup destruction path.

cgroup_mount() uses dumb delay-and-retry logic to wait for cgroup_root
which is being destroyed. The retry currently loops inside
cgroup_mount() proper. This patch makes it return with
restart_syscall() instead so that retry travels out to userland
boundary.
This slightly simplifies the logic and more importantly makes the

If the probed insn triggers a trap, ->si_addr = regs->ip is technically
correct, but this is not what the signal handler wants; we need to pass
the address of the probed insn, not the address of xol slot.
Add the new arch-agnostic helper, uprobe_get_trap_addr(), and change
fill_trap_info() and math_error() to use it. !CONFIG_UPROBES case in
uprobes.h uses a macro to avoid include hell and ensure that it can be
compiled even if an architecture doesn't define instruction_pointer().
Test-case:
#include <signal.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
extern void probe_div(void);
void sigh(int sig, siginfo_t *info, void *c)
{
int passed = (info->si_addr == probe_div);
printf(passed ? "PASS\n" : "FAIL\n");
_exit(!passed);
}
int main(void)
{
struct sigaction sa = {
.sa_sigaction = sigh,
.sa_flags = SA_SIGINFO,
};
sigaction(SIGFPE, &sa, NULL);
asm (
"xor %ecx,%ecx\n"
".globl probe_div; probe_div:\n"
"idiv %ecx\n"
);
return 0;
}
it fails if probe_div() is probed.
Note: show_unhandled_signals users should probably use this helper too,
but we need to cleanup them first.

Hopefully not a big problem, uprobes is a system-wide thing and only

We currently set RO & NX on modules very late: after we move them from

Much better is to do it in complete_formation() and then call
the notifier.
This means that the notifiers will be called on a module which
is already RO & NX, so that may cause problems (ftrace already

cgroup_tree_mutex was introduced to work around the circular
dependency between cgroup_mutex and kernfs active protection - some
kernfs file and directory operations needed cgroup_mutex putting
cgroup_mutex under active protection but cgroup also needs to be able
to access cgroup hierarchies and cftypes to determine which
kernfs_nodes need to be removed. cgroup_tree_mutex nested above both
cgroup_mutex and kernfs active protection and used to protect the
hierarchy and cftypes. While this worked, it added a lot of double
lockings and was generally cumbersome.
kernfs provides a mechanism to opt out of active protection and cgroup
was already using it for removal and subtree_control. There's no
reason to mix both methods of avoiding circular locking dependency and
the preceding cgroup_kn_lock_live() changes applied it to all relevant
cgroup kernfs operations making it unnecessary to nest cgroup_mutex
under kernfs active protection. The previous patch reversed the
original lock ordering and put cgroup_mutex above kernfs active
protection.
After these changes, all cgroup_tree_mutex usages are now accompanied
by cgroup_mutex making the former completely redundant. This patch
removes cgroup_tree_mutex and all its usages.

During the recent conversion to kernfs, cftype's seq_file operations
are updated so that they are directly mapped to kernfs operations and
thus can fully access the associated kernfs and cgroup contexts;
however, write path hasn't seen similar updates and none of the
existing write operations has access to, for example, the associated
kernfs_open_file.
Let's introduce a new operation cftype->write() which maps directly to
the kernfs write operation and has access to all the arguments and
contexts. This will replace ->write_string() and ->trigger() and ease
manipulation of kernfs active protection from cgroup file operations.
Two accessors - of_cft() and of_css() - are introduced to enable
accessing the associated cgroup context from cftype->write() which
only takes kernfs_open_file for the context information. The
accessors for seq_file operations - seq_cft() and seq_css() - are
rewritten to wrap the of_ accessors.

Unlike the more usual refcnting, what css_tryget() provides is the

I thought about keeping the existing names as-are and introducing new

seems worthwhile to make it explicit that these functions are about
on/offline state.

I was confused that strsep() was equivalent to strtok_r() in skipping
over consecutive delimiters. strsep() just splits at the first
occurrence of one of the delimiters which makes the parsing very
inflexible, which makes allowing multiple whitespace chars as
delimters kinda moot. Let's just be consistently strict and require
list of tokens separated by spaces. This is what
Documentation/cgroups/unified-hierarchy.txt describes too.
Also, parsing may access beyond the end of the string if the string
ends with spaces or is zero-length. Make sure it skips zero-length
tokens. Note that this also ensures that the parser doesn't puke on
multiple consecutive spaces.

traditional hierarchies as a css's lifetime is the same as its

off a controller repeatedly using "cgroup.subtree_control" can lead to
an oops like the following which happens because cgroup->subsys[] is
incorrectly cleared asynchronously by css_release().

and there's no reason for the lock to be IRQ-safe spinlock or even
per-cgroup. In fact, given the fact that a cgroup may contain large
number of tasks, it's not a good idea to iterate over them while
holding IRQ-safe spinlock.
Let's simplify locking by replacing per-cgroup freezer->lock with
global freezer_mutex. This also makes the comments explaining the
intricacies of policy inheritance and the locking around it as the
states are protected by a common mutex.
The conversion is mostly straight-forward. The followings are worth
mentioning.
* freezer_css_online() no longer needs double locking.
* freezer_attach() now performs propagation simply while holding
freezer_mutex. update_if_frozen() race no longer exists and the
comment is removed.
* freezer_fork() now tests whether the task is in root cgroup using
the new task_css_is_root() without doing rcu_read_lock/unlock(). If
not, it grabs freezer_mutex and performs the operation.
* freezer_read() and freezer_change_state() grab freezer_mutex across
the whole operation and pin the css while iterating so that each
descendant processing happens in sleepable context.

Determining the css of a task usually requires RCU read lock as that's
the only thing which keeps the returned css accessible till its
reference is acquired; however, testing whether a task belongs to the
root can be performed without dereferencing the returned css by
comparing the returned pointer against the root one in init_css_set[]
which never changes.
Implement task_css_is_root() which can be invoked in any context.
This will be used by the scheduled cgroup_freezer change.

is_error_status() is an inline function always called with the
global time_status as an argument, so there's zero functional
difference with this change, but the non-CONFIG_NTP_PPS version
uses the passed-in argument, while the CONFIG_NTP_PPS one ignores
its argument and uses the global.
Looks like is_error_status was refactored out, but someone forgot
to change the logic to check the local argument value.
Thus this patch makes it use the argument always; shorter variable
names are good.

netlink_capable to netlink_ns_capable.

The first is a long standing bug that causes bogus data to show up
in the refcnt field of the module_refcnt tracepoint. It was
introduced by a merge conflict resolution back in 2.6.35-rc days.
The result should be refcnt = incs - decs, but instead it did
refcnt = incs + decs.
The second fix is to a bug that was introduced in this merge window
that allowed for a tracepoint funcs pointer to be used after it
was freed. Moving the location of where the probes are released
solved the problem.

release_probes on the old struct tracepoint array before the newly

Because mwait_idle_with_hints() gets called from !idle context it must
call current_clr_polling(). This however means that resched_task() is
very likely to send an IPI even when we were polling:
CPU0 CPU1
if (current_set_polling_and_test())
goto out;
__monitor(&ti->flags);
if (!need_resched())
__mwait(eax, ecx);
set_tsk_need_resched(p);
smp_mb();
out:
current_clr_polling();
if (!tsk_is_polling(p))
smp_send_reschedule(cpu);
So while it is correct (extra IPIs aren't a problem, whereas a missed
IPI would be) it is a performance problem (for some).
Avoid this issue by using fetch_or() to atomically set NEED_RESCHED
and test if POLLING_NRFLAG is set.
Since a CPU stuck in mwait is unlikely to modify the flags word,
contention on the cmpxchg is unlikely and thus we should mostly
succeed in a single go.

Commit 38b435b16c ("perf: Fix tear-down of inherited group events")
states that we need to destroy groups for inherited events, but it
doesn't make any sense to not also destroy groups for normal events.
And while it usually makes no difference (the normal events won't
leak, and its very likely all the group events will die in quick
succession) it does make the code more consistent and closes a
potential hole for trouble.

It was found that when running some workloads (such as AIM7) on large
systems with many cores, CPUs do not remain idle for long. Thus, tasks
can wake/get enqueued while doing idle balancing.
In this patch, while traversing the domains in idle balance, in
addition to checking for pulled_task, we add an extra check for
this_rq->nr_running for determining if we should stop searching for
tasks to pull. If there are runnable tasks on this rq, then we will
stop traversing the domains. This reduces the chance that idle balance
delays a task from running.
This patch resulted in approximately a 6% performance improvement when
running a Java Server workload on an 8 socket machine.

A new flag SD_SHARE_POWERDOMAIN is created to reflect whether groups of CPUs
in a sched_domain level can or not reach different power state. As an example,
the flag should be cleared at CPU level if groups of cores can be power gated
independently. This information can be used in the load balance decision or to
add load balancing level between group of CPUs that can power gate
independantly.
This flag is part of the topology flags that can be set by arch.

We replace the old way to configure the scheduler topology with a new method
which enables a platform to declare additionnal level (if needed).
We still have a default topology table definition that can be used by platform
that don't want more level than the SMT, MC, CPU and NUMA ones. This table can
be overwritten by an arch which either wants to add new level where a load
balance make sense like BOOK or powergating level or wants to change the flags
configuration of some levels.
For each level, we need a function pointer that returns cpumask for each cpu,
a function pointer that returns the flags for the level and a name. Only flags
that describe topology, can be set by an architecture. The current topology
flags are:
SD_SHARE_CPUPOWER
SD_SHARE_PKG_RESOURCES
SD_NUMA
SD_ASYM_PACKING
Then, each level must be a subset on the next one. The build sequence of the
sched_domain will take care of removing useless levels like those with 1 CPU
and those with the same CPU span and no more relevant information for
load balancing than its children.

Setting the numa_preferred_node for a task in task_numa_migrate
does nothing on a 2-node system. Either we migrate to the node
that already was our preferred node, or we stay where we were.
On a 4-node system, it can slightly decrease overhead, by not
calling the NUMA code as much. Since every node tends to be
directly connected to every other node, running on the wrong
node for a while does not do much damage.
However, on an 8 node system, there are far more bad nodes
than there are good ones, and pretending that a second choice
is actually the preferred node can greatly delay, or even
prevent, a workload from converging.
The only time we can safely pretend that a second choice
node is the preferred node is when the task is part of a
workload that spans multiple NUMA nodes.
