torture: Dump ftrace at shutdown only if requested
If there is a large number of torture tests running concurrently, all of which are dumping large ftrace buffers at shutdown time, the resulting dumping can take a very long time, particularly on systems with rotating-rust storage. This commit therefore adds a default-off torture.ftrace_dump_at_shutdown module parameter that enables shutdown-time ftrace-buffer dumping. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org> |

rcutorture: Add races with task-exit processing
Several variants of Linux-kernel RCU interact with task-exit processing, including preemptible RCU, Tasks RCU, and Tasks Trace RCU. This commit therefore adds testing of this interaction to rcutorture by adding rcutorture.read_exit_burst and rcutorture.read_exit_delay kernel-boot parameters. These kernel parameters control the frequency and spacing of special read-then-exit kthreads that are spawned.

refperf: Rename refperf.c to refscale.c and change internal names
This commit further avoids conflation of refperf with the kernel's perf feature by renaming kernel/rcu/refperf.c to kernel/rcu/refscale.c, and also by similarly renaming the functions and variables inside this file. This has the side effect of changing the names of the kernel boot parameters, so kernel-parameters.txt and ver_functions.sh are also updated. The rcutorture --torture type remains refperf, and this will be addressed in a separate commit. Reported-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org> |

rcu/tree: cache specified number of objects
In order to reduce the dynamic need for pages in kfree_rcu(), pre-allocate a configurable number of pages per CPU and link them in a list. When kfree_rcu() reclaims objects, the object's container page is cached into a list instead of being released to the low-level page allocator. Such an approach provides O(1) access to free pages while also reducing the number of requests to the page allocator. It also makes the kfree_rcu() code to have free pages available during a low memory condition. A read-only sysfs parameter (rcu_min_cached_objs) reflects the minimum number of allowed cached pages per CPU. Signed-off-by: Uladzislau Rezki (Sony) <urezki@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

Pull x86 srbds fixes from Thomas Gleixner: "The 9th episode of the dime novel "The performance killer" with the subtitle "Slow Randomizing Boosts Denial of Service". SRBDS is an MDS-like speculative side channel that can leak bits from the random number generator (RNG) across cores and threads. New microcode serializes the processor access during the execution of RDRAND and RDSEED. This ensures that the shared buffer is overwritten before it is released for reuse. This is equivalent to a full bus lock, which means that many threads running the RNG instructions in parallel have the same effect as the same amount of threads issuing a locked instruction targeting an address which requires locking of two cachelines at once. The mitigation support comes with the usual pile of unpleasant ingredients: - command line options - sysfs file - microcode checks - a list of vulnerable CPUs identified by model and stepping this time which requires stepping match support for the cpu match logic. - the inevitable slowdown of affected CPUs" * branch 'x86/srbds' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: x86/speculation: Add Ivy Bridge to affected list x86/speculation: Add SRBDS vulnerability and mitigation documentation x86/speculation: Add Special Register Buffer Data Sampling (SRBDS) mitigation x86/cpu: Add 'table' argument to cpu_matches() |

kernel/watchdog.c: convert {soft/hard}lockup boot parameters to sysctl aliases
After a recent change introduced by Vlastimil's series [0], kernel is able now to handle sysctl parameters on kernel command line; also, the series introduced a simple infrastructure to convert legacy boot parameters (that duplicate sysctls) into sysctl aliases. This patch converts the watchdog parameters softlockup_panic and {hard,soft}lockup_all_cpu_backtrace to use the new alias infrastructure. It fixes the documentation too, since the alias only accepts values 0 or 1, not the full range of integers. We also took the opportunity here to improve the documentation of the previously converted hung_task_panic (see the patch series [0]) and put the alias table in alphabetical order.

kernel/hung_task convert hung_task_panic boot parameter to sysctl
We can now handle sysctl parameters on kernel command line and have infrastructure to convert legacy command line options that duplicate sysctl to become a sysctl alias. This patch converts the hung_task_panic parameter. Note that the sysctl handler is more strict and allows only 0 and 1, while the legacy parameter allowed any non-zero value. But there is little reason anyone would not be using 1.

kernel/sysctl: support setting sysctl parameters from kernel command line
Patch series "support setting sysctl parameters from kernel command line", v3. This series adds support for something that seems like many people always wanted but nobody added it yet, so here's the ability to set sysctl parameters via kernel command line options in the form of sysctl.vm.something=1 The important part is Patch 1. The second, not so important part is an attempt to clean up legacy one-off parameters that do the same thing as a sysctl. I don't want to remove them completely for compatibility reasons, but with generic sysctl support the idea is to remove the one-off param handlers and treat the parameters as aliases for the sysctl variants. I have identified several parameters that mention sysctl counterparts in Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt but there might be more. The conversion also has varying level of success: - numa_zonelist_order is converted in Patch 2 together with adding the necessary infrastructure. It's easy as it doesn't really do anything but warn on deprecated value these days. - hung_task_panic is converted in Patch 3, but there's a downside that now it only accepts 0 and 1, while previously it was any integer value - nmi_watchdog maps to two sysctls nmi_watchdog and hardlockup_panic, so there's no straighforward conversion possible - traceoff_on_warning is a flag without value and it would be required to handle that somehow in the conversion infractructure, which seems pointless for a single flag This patch (of 5): A recently proposed patch to add vm_swappiness command line parameter in addition to existing sysctl [1] made me wonder why we don't have a general support for passing sysctl parameters via command line. Googling found only somebody else wondering the same [2], but I haven't found any prior discussion with reasons why not to do this. Settings the vm_swappiness issue aside (the underlying issue might be solved in a different way), quick search of kernel-parameters.txt shows there are already some that exist as both sysctl and kernel parameter - hung_task_panic, nmi_watchdog, numa_zonelist_order, traceoff_on_warning. A general mechanism would remove the need to add more of those one-offs and might be handy in situations where configuration by e.g. /etc/sysctl.d/ is impractical. Hence, this patch adds a new parse_args() pass that looks for parameters prefixed by 'sysctl.' and tries to interpret them as writes to the corresponding sys/ files using an temporary in-kernel procfs mount. This mechanism was suggested by Eric W. Biederman [3], as it handles all dynamically registered sysctl tables, even though we don't handle modular sysctls. Errors due to e.g. invalid parameter name or value are reported in the kernel log. The processing is hooked right before the init process is loaded, as some handlers might be more complicated than simple setters and might need some subsystems to be initialized. At the moment the init process can be started and eventually execute a process writing to /proc/sys/ then it should be also fine to do that from the kernel. Sysctls registered later on module load time are not set by this mechanism - it's expected that in such scenarios, setting sysctl values from userspace is practical enough.

kernel: add panic_on_taint
Analogously to the introduction of panic_on_warn, this patch introduces a kernel option named panic_on_taint in order to provide a simple and generic way to stop execution and catch a coredump when the kernel gets tainted by any given flag. This is useful for debugging sessions as it avoids having to rebuild the kernel to explicitly add calls to panic() into the code sites that introduce the taint flags of interest. For instance, if one is interested in proceeding with a post-mortem analysis at the point a given code path is hitting a bad page (i.e. unaccount_page_cache_page(), or slab_bug()), a coredump can be collected by rebooting the kernel with 'panic_on_taint=0x20' amended to the command line. Another, perhaps less frequent, use for this option would be as a means for assuring a security policy case where only a subset of taints, or no single taint (in paranoid mode), is allowed for the running system. The optional switch 'nousertaint' is handy in this particular scenario, as it will avoid userspace induced crashes by writes to sysctl interface /proc/sys/kernel/tainted causing false positive hits for such policies.

hugetlbfs: clean up command line processing
With all hugetlb page processing done in a single file clean up code. - Make code match desired semantics - Update documentation with semantics - Make all warnings and errors messages start with 'HugeTLB:'. - Consistently name command line parsing routines. - Warn if !hugepages_supported() and command line parameters have been specified. - Add comments to code - Describe some of the subtle interactions - Describe semantics of command line arguments This patch also fixes issues with implicitly setting the number of gigantic huge pages to preallocate. Previously on X86 command line, hugepages=2 default_hugepagesz=1G would result in zero 1G pages being preallocated and, # grep HugePages_Total /proc/meminfo HugePages_Total: 0 # sysctl -a | grep nr_hugepages vm.nr_hugepages = 2 vm.nr_hugepages_mempolicy = 2 # cat /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages 2 After this patch 2 gigantic pages will be preallocated and all the proc, sysfs, sysctl and meminfo files will accurately reflect this. To address the issue with gigantic pages, a small change in behavior was made to command line processing. Previously the command line, hugepages=128 default_hugepagesz=2M hugepagesz=2M hugepages=256 would result in the allocation of 256 2M huge pages. The value 128 would be ignored without any warning. After this patch, 128 2M pages will be allocated and a warning message will be displayed indicating the value of 256 is ignored. This change in behavior is required because allocation of implicitly specified gigantic pages must be done when the default_hugepagesz= is encountered for gigantic pages. Previously the code waited until later in the boot process (hugetlb_init), to allocate pages of default size. However the bootmem allocator required for gigantic allocations is not available at this time.

kgdb patches for 5.8-rc1
By far the biggest change in this cycle are the changes that allow much earlier debug of systems that are hooked up via UART by taking advantage of the earlycon framework to implement the kgdb I/O hooks before handing over to the regular polling I/O drivers once they are available. When discussing Doug's work we also found and fixed an broken raw_smp_processor_id() sequence in in_dbg_master(). Also included are a collection of much smaller fixes and tweaks: a couple of tweaks to ged rid of doc gen or coccicheck warnings, future proof some internal calculations that made implicit power-of-2 assumptions and eliminate some rather weird handling of magic environment variables in kdb.

X86 timer specific updates:
- Add TPAUSE based delay which allows the CPU to enter an optimized power state while waiting for the delay to pass. The delay is based on TSC cycles. - Add tsc_early_khz command line parameter to workaround the problem that overclocked CPUs can report the wrong frequency via CPUID.16h which causes the refined calibration to fail because the delta to the initial frequency value is too big. With the parameter users can provide an halfways accurate initial value. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQJHBAABCgAxFiEEQp8+kY+LLUocC4bMphj1TA10mKEFAl7XvMITHHRnbHhAbGlu dXRyb25peC5kZQAKCRCmGPVMDXSYoQ59EACWOU2E+S/b+AqKoZRAJWbTASmu2jEU 4AukhjO3A0y+G3EqnCtvQbUbKkthScSmrDJs2Dt8CTO6q3Fqv/f5JgoubgSx9Hbj pF1hvueOvRBpinzGEJbDbv+HbkoCYr10DZ5dZ8uz120pSnlfSNNpgZ6hJkOFaUHu nwVEJpkg2x3ZsiJrgyOfdorwbxO5dCNY9YVL3jyVXUi5QfP3lYrr3/Nz6daIRtRn Q9tj48N4Bk4ASgmg4rSdXd6OKeZ3Oz1nerol5vFvBeaOc8PVcKSu5sSqMIHHUV2M RJq8T4nW5Y4pkYjpdYP7Pr/3HYbSNW6eU+MycfnJOzYYTIQfFWkG2wHDNuOg/v+A GC/grS6wNBj/+tZlvWTwLPf44h7V+sowzYPHBWounT/5drFZ+xsm8+Je4s2NtNih rbG/4oOQ2jn05PNBCCOyLuP33efQ3ub2UHPCoUxckMiX2eqI+iWpdllZLSiSADZY jlbXgTQ/Fa3nGKVYVDi1GYbx1rBr/HbsbgvGV4D802s7inmev0azrbgc/CECrnvO rEa501Y1xzxZ7Zet0QvLK/7aKP532pCmgZiBSmcnS73FBbnssvNJiHlAeq4NHtN2 TsaGYLy0iPSj7siXEaeysUKRjUTNNrgRvtWfo35GDjWahgXhixIvVVpwxnWws5cj aNR5FwxnI03V2A== =199V -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'x86-timers-2020-06-03' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull x86 timer updates from Thomas Gleixner: "X86 timer specific updates: - Add TPAUSE based delay which allows the CPU to enter an optimized power state while waiting for the delay to pass.

Documentation: kgdboc: Document new kgdboc_earlycon parameter
The recent patch ("kgdboc: Add kgdboc_earlycon to support early kgdb using boot consoles") adds a new kernel command line parameter. Document it. Note that the patch adding the feature does some comparing/contrasting of "kgdboc_earlycon" vs. the existing "ekgdboc". See that patch for more details, but briefly "ekgdboc" can be used _instead_ of "kgdboc" and just makes "kgdboc" do its normal initialization early (only works if your tty driver is already ready). The new "kgdboc_earlycon" works in combination with "kgdboc" and is backed by boot consoles.

Meanwhile, those patches reach pretty far afield to update document references around the tree; there should be no actual code changes there.

An overclocked CPU supporting CPUID.16h and with partial CPUID.15h support will set TSC KHZ according to "best guess" given by CPUID.16h relying on tsc_refine_calibration_work to give better numbers later. tsc_refine_calibration_work will refuse to do its work when the outcome is off the early TSC KHZ value by more than 1% which is certain to happen on an overclocked system. Fix this by adding a tsc_early_khz command line parameter that makes the kernel skip early TSC calibration and use the given value instead. This allows the user to provide the expected TSC frequency that is closer to reality than the one reported by the hardware, enabling tsc_refine_calibration_work to do meaningful error checking.

There is an special chapter inside the core-api book about some debug infrastructure like tracepoints and debug objects.

rcutorture: Add flag to produce non-busy-wait task stalls
This commit aids testing of RCU task stall warning messages by adding an rcutorture.stall_cpu_block module parameter that results in the induced stall sleeping within the RCU read-side critical section. Spinning with interrupts disabled is still available via the rcutorture.stall_cpu_irqsoff module parameter, and specifying neither of these two module parameters will spin with preemption disabled. Note that sleeping (as opposed to preemption) results in additional complaints from RCU at context-switch time, so yet more testing. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org> |

rcu-tasks: Provide boot parameter to delay IPIs until late in grace period
This commit provides a rcupdate.rcu_task_ipi_delay kernel boot parameter that specifies how old the RCU tasks trace grace period must be before the grace-period kthread starts sending IPIs. This delay allows more tasks to pass through rcu_tasks_qs() quiescent states, thus reducing (or even eliminating) the number of IPIs that must be sent. On a short rcutorture test setting this kernel boot parameter to HZ/2 resulted in zero IPIs for all 877 RCU-tasks trace grace periods that elapsed during that test. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

x86/setup: Add an initrdmem= option to specify initrd physical address
Add the initrdmem option: initrdmem=ss[KMG],nn[KMG] which is used to specify the physical address of the initrd, almost always an address in FLASH. Also add code for x86 to use the existing phys_init_start and phys_init_size variables in the kernel. This is useful in cases where a kernel and an initrd is placed in FLASH, but there is no firmware file system structure in the FLASH. One such situation occurs when unused FLASH space on UEFI systems has been reclaimed by, e.g., taking it from the Management Engine. For example, on many systems, the ME is given half the FLASH part; not only is 2.75M of an 8M part unused; but 10.75M of a 16M part is unused. This space can be used to contain an initrd, but need to tell Linux where it is. This space is "raw": due to, e.g., UEFI limitations: it can not be added to UEFI firmware volumes without rebuilding UEFI from source or writing a UEFI device driver. It can be referenced only as a physical address and size. At the same time, if a kernel can be "netbooted" or loaded from GRUB or syslinux, the option of not using the physical address specification should be available. Then, it is easy to boot the kernel and provide an initrd; or boot the the kernel and let it use the initrd in FLASH. In practice, this has proven to be very helpful when integrating Linux into FLASH on x86. Hence, the most flexible and convenient path is to enable the initrdmem command line option in a way that it is the last choice tried. For example, on the DigitalLoggers Atomic Pi, an image into FLASH can be burnt in with a built-in command line which includes: initrdmem=0xff968000,0x200000 which specifies a location and size.

x86/speculation: Add Special Register Buffer Data Sampling (SRBDS) mitigation
SRBDS is an MDS-like speculative side channel that can leak bits from the random number generator (RNG) across cores and threads. New microcode serializes the processor access during the execution of RDRAND and RDSEED. This ensures that the shared buffer is overwritten before it is released for reuse. While it is present on all affected CPU models, the microcode mitigation is not needed on models that enumerate ARCH_CAPABILITIES[MDS_NO] in the cases where TSX is not supported or has been disabled with TSX_CTRL. The mitigation is activated by default on affected processors and it increases latency for RDRAND and RDSEED instructions. Among other effects this will reduce throughput from /dev/urandom. * Enable administrator to configure the mitigation off when desired using either mitigations=off or srbds=off. * Export vulnerability status via sysfs * Rename file-scoped macros to apply for non-whitelist table initializations.

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

Support for "split lock" detection:
- Atomic operations (lock prefixed instructions) which span two cache lines have to acquire the global bus lock. This is at least 1k cycles slower than an atomic operation within a cache line and disrupts performance on other cores. Aside of performance disruption this is a unpriviledged form of DoS. Some newer CPUs have the capability to raise an #AC trap when such an operation is attempted. The detection is by default enabled in warning mode which will warn once when a user space application is caught. A command line option allows to disable the detection or to select fatal mode which will terminate offending applications with SIGBUS. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQJHBAABCgAxFiEEQp8+kY+LLUocC4bMphj1TA10mKEFAl6B/uMTHHRnbHhAbGlu dXRyb25peC5kZQAKCRCmGPVMDXSYocsAD/9yqpw+XlPKNPsfbm9sbirBDfTrENcL F44iwn4WnrjoW/gnnZCYmPxJFsTtGVPqxHdUf4eyGemg9r9ZEO0DQftmUHC5Z6KX aa/b5JoeM61wp9HlpVlD4D1jVt4pWyQODQeZnUXE4DEzmRc3cD/5lSU+/VeaIwwz lxwUemqmXK7ucH2KA7smOGsl2nU6ED84q3mdOB1b4Cw+gWYMUnPJnuS/ipriBRx4 BYbMItcxsFvtdO9Hx8PvGd5LUK0wW8JOWrYQICD2kLpZtHtGeaHpBzFzL0+nMU7d 1epyDqJQDmX+PAzvj+EYyn3HTfobZlckn+tbxMQkkS+oDk1ywOZd+BancClvn5/5 jMfPIQJF5bGASVnzGMWhzVdwthTZiMG4d1iKsUWOA/hN0ch0+rm1BqraToabsEFg Sv7/rvl9KtSOtMJTeAmMhlZUMBj9m8BtPFjniDwp6nw/upGgJdST5mrKFNYZvqOj JnXsEMr/nJVW6bnUvT6LF66xbHlzHdxtodkQWqF+IEsyRaOz1zAGpQamP98KxNLc dq/XYoEe1KqIFbg4BkNP+GeDL3FQDxjFNwPQnnjQEzWRbjkHlfmq1uKCsR2r8mBO fYNJ1X8lTyGV0kx/ERpWGazzabpzh+8Lr1yMhnoA3EWvlzUjmpN2PFI4oTpTrtzT c/q16SCxim3NWA== =D9x8 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'x86-splitlock-2020-03-30' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull x86 splitlock updates from Thomas Gleixner: "Support for 'split lock' detection: Atomic operations (lock prefixed instructions) which span two cache lines have to acquire the global bus lock.

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

acpi/x86: add a kernel parameter to disable ACPI BGRT
BGRT is for displaying seamless OEM logo from booting to login screen; however, this mechanism does not always work well on all configurations and the OEM logo can be displayed multiple times.

sched/fair: Enable tuning of decay period
Thermal pressure follows pelt signals which means the decay period for thermal pressure is the default pelt decay period. Depending on SoC characteristics and thermal activity, it might be beneficial to decay thermal pressure slower, but still in-tune with the pelt signals.

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

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

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

rcu: React to callback overload by aggressively seeking quiescent states
In default configutions, RCU currently waits at least 100 milliseconds before asking cond_resched() and/or resched_rcu() for help seeking quiescent states to end a grace period. But 100 milliseconds can be one good long time during an RCU callback flood, for example, as can happen when user processes repeatedly open and close files in a tight loop. These 100-millisecond gaps in successive grace periods during a callback flood can result in excessive numbers of callbacks piling up, unnecessarily increasing memory footprint. This commit therefore asks cond_resched() and/or resched_rcu() for help as early as the first FQS scan when at least one of the CPUs has more than 20,000 callbacks queued, a number that can be changed using the new rcutree.qovld kernel boot parameter. An auxiliary qovld_calc variable is used to avoid acquisition of locks that have not yet been initialized. Early tests indicate that this reduces the RCU-callback memory footprint during rcutorture floods by from 50% to 4x, depending on configuration.

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

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

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

The interrupt departement provides:
- A mechanism to shield isolated tasks from managed interrupts: The affinity of managed interrupts is completely controlled by the kernel and user space has no influence on them. The reason is that the automatically assigned affinity correlates to the multi-queue CPU handling of block devices.

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

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

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

efi: Allow disabling PCI busmastering on bridges during boot
Add an option to disable the busmaster bit in the control register on all PCI bridges before calling ExitBootServices() and passing control to the runtime kernel. System firmware may configure the IOMMU to prevent malicious PCI devices from being able to attack the OS via DMA. However, since firmware can't guarantee that the OS is IOMMU-aware, it will tear down IOMMU configuration when ExitBootServices() is called. This leaves a window between where a hostile device could still cause damage before Linux configures the IOMMU again. If CONFIG_EFI_DISABLE_PCI_DMA is enabled or "efi=disable_early_pci_dma" is passed on the command line, the EFI stub will clear the busmaster bit on all PCI bridges before ExitBootServices() is called. This will prevent any malicious PCI devices from being able to perform DMA until the kernel reenables busmastering after configuring the IOMMU. This option may cause failures with some poorly behaved hardware and should not be enabled without testing. The kernel commandline options "efi=disable_early_pci_dma" or "efi=no_disable_early_pci_dma" may be used to override the default. Note that PCI devices downstream from PCI bridges are disconnected from their drivers first, using the UEFI driver model API, so that DMA can be disabled safely at the bridge level.

Documentation,selinux: fix references to old selinuxfs mount point
selinuxfs was originally mounted on /selinux, and various docs and
kconfig help texts referred to nodes under it. In Linux 3.0,
/sys/fs/selinux was introduced as the preferred mount point for selinuxfs.
Fix all the old references to /selinux/ to /sys/fs/selinux/.
While we are there, update the description of the selinux boot parameter
to reflect the fact that the default value is always 1 since

Here's the main documentation changes for 5.5:
- Various kerneldoc script enhancements. - More RST conversions; those are slowing down as we run out of things to convert, but we're a ways from done still. - Dan's "maintainer profile entry" work landed at last. Now we just need to get maintainers to fill in the profiles... - A reworking of the parallel build setup to work better with a variety of systems (and to not take over huge systems entirely in particular). - The MAINTAINERS file is now converted to RST during the build. Hopefully nobody ever tries to print this thing, or they will need to load a lot of paper. - A script and documentation making it easy for maintainers to add Link: tags at commit time. Also included is the removal of a bunch of spurious CR characters. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQFDBAABCAAtFiEEIw+MvkEiF49krdp9F0NaE2wMflgFAl3j5B0PHGNvcmJldEBs d24ubmV0AAoJEBdDWhNsDH5YtBcH/jIN2cO8/0YW2rjVT+1G6ytSdFUKx5WJ/lpf 5uBeCvuCeYhtCB6+BgnXvjykJ7jDW11/NJNjWqz/gsvD5l5FJK1rXarI/oz2Klyi kcPtDmBF/ki4wz9qXzEpa0vg8LXdjeys50S1vE75qCzxZoPP7YjuRbPnLrlIJukv JbDVi4p9kxgeHfRB4+BHOe5rFwA3mMmaxKNIX34Y+UUO2KZ0g/yUi1bAaQwQAdt+ PsORmkVQ8Puh3K9xRIr7dYlcWBlBiPqzYdvDgTVxSjrxdK6wjYjSgVk2VjC5MBUN mTSTWgyfsIcD/76/s8tq7ZRl2fw+SkCSkFo79Rb/hJwDTb7Vnng= =LPBr -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'docs-5.5a' of git://git.lwn.net/linux Pull Documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet: "Here are the main documentation changes for 5.5: - Various kerneldoc script enhancements. - More RST conversions; those are slowing down as we run out of things to convert, but we're a ways from done still. - Dan's "maintainer profile entry" work landed at last.
