Currently when the coredump signals are logged by the audit system, the
actual path to the executable is not logged. Without details of exe, the
system admin may not have an exact idea on what program failed.
This patch changes the audit_log_task() so that the path to the exe is also
logged.
This was copied from audit_log_task_info() and the latter enhanced to avoid
disappearing text fields.

There have been reports of auditd restarts resulting in kaudit not being able
to find a newly registered auditd. It results in reports such as:
kernel: [ 2077.233573] audit: *NO* daemon at audit_pid=1614
kernel: [ 2077.234712] audit: audit_lost=97 audit_rate_limit=0 audit_backlog_limit=320
kernel: [ 2077.234718] audit: auditd disappeared
(previously mis-spelled "dissapeared")
One possible cause is a race between the shutdown of an older auditd and a
newer one. If the newer one sets the daemon pid to itself in kauditd before
the older one has cleared the daemon pid, the newer daemon pid will be erased.
This could be caused by an automated system, or by manual intervention, but in
either case, there is no use in having the older daemon clear the daemon pid
reference since its old pid is no longer being referenced. This patch will
prevent that specific case, returning an error of EACCES.
The case for preventing a newer auditd from registering itself if there is an
existing auditd is a more difficult case that is beyond the scope of this
patch.

need of maintaining the audit_log_abend() as a separate function.

The default audit_backlog_limit is 64. This was a reasonable limit at one time.
systemd causes so much audit queue activity on startup that auditd doesn't
start before the backlog queue has already overflowed by more than a factor of
2. On a system with audit= not set on the kernel command line, this isn't an
issue since that history isn't kept for auditd when it is available. On a
system with audit=1 set on the kernel command line, kaudit tries to keep that
history until auditd is able to drain the queue.
This default can be changed by the "-b" option in audit.rules once the system
has booted, but won't help with lost messages on boot.
One way to solve this would be to increase the default backlog queue size to
avoid losing any messages before auditd is able to consume them. This would
be overkill to the embedded community and insufficient for some servers.
Another way to solve it might be to add a kconfig option to set the default
based on the system type. An embedded system would get the current (or
smaller) default, while Workstations might get more than now and servers might
get more.
None of these solutions helps if a system's compiled default is too small to
see the lost messages without compiling a new kernel.
This patch adds a kernel set-up parameter (audit already has one to
enable/disable it) "audit_backlog_limit=<n>" that overrides the default to
allow the system administrator to set the backlog limit.

only one is going to get it, so there's no need to wake up

back to sleep. This results in wasted context switches and machine cycles.
kauditd_thread() is the only function that removes buffers from audit_skb_queue
so we can't race. If we did, the timeout in wait_for_auditd() would expire and
the waiting thread would continue.

With various drivers wanting to inject idle time; we get people
calling idle routines outside of the idle loop proper.
Therefore we need to be extra careful about not missing
TIF_NEED_RESCHED -> PREEMPT_NEED_RESCHED propagations.
While looking at this, I also realized there's a small window in the
existing idle loop where we can miss TIF_NEED_RESCHED; when it hits
right after the tif_need_resched() test at the end of the loop but
right before the need_resched() test at the start of the loop.
So move preempt_fold_need_resched() out of the loop where we're
guaranteed to have TIF_NEED_RESCHED set.

Currently local_bh_disable() is out-of-line for no apparent reason.
So inline it to save a few cycles on call/return nonsense, the
function body is a single add on x86 (a few loads and store extra on
load/store archs).
Also expose two new local_bh functions:
__local_bh_{dis,en}able_ip(unsigned long ip, unsigned int cnt);
Which implement the actual local_bh_{dis,en}able() behaviour.
The next patch uses the exposed @cnt argument to optimize bh lock
functions.

Doing some different tests, I discovered that function graph tracing, when
filtered via the set_ftrace_filter and set_ftrace_notrace files, does
not always keep with them if another function ftrace_ops is registered
to trace functions.
The reason is that function graph just happens to trace all functions
that the function tracer enables. When there was only one user of
function tracing, the function graph tracer did not need to worry about
being called by functions that it did not want to trace. But now that there
are other users, this becomes a problem.
For example, one just needs to do the following:
# cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
# echo schedule > set_ftrace_filter
# echo function_graph > current_tracer
# cat trace

When the stack tracer was enabled, it enabled all functions to be traced, which
now the function graph tracer also traces. This is a side effect that should
not occur.
To fix this a test is added when the function tracing is changed, as well as when
the graph tracer is enabled, to see if anything other than the ftrace global_ops
function tracer is enabled. If so, then the graph tracer calls a test trampoline
that will look at the function that is being traced and compare it with the
filters defined by the global_ops.
As an optimization, if there's no other function tracers registered, or if
the only registered function tracers also use the global ops, the function
graph infrastructure will call the registered function graph callback directly
and not go through the test trampoline.

Currently all _bh_ lock functions do two preempt_count operations:
local_bh_disable();
preempt_disable();
and for the unlock:
preempt_enable_no_resched();
local_bh_enable();
Since its a waste of perfectly good cycles to modify the same variable
twice when you can do it in one go; use the new
__local_bh_{dis,en}able_ip() functions that allow us to provide a
preempt_count value to add/sub.
So define SOFTIRQ_LOCK_OFFSET as the offset a _bh_ lock needs to
add/sub to be done in one go.
As a bonus it gets rid of the preempt_enable_no_resched() usage.
This reduces a 1000 loops of:
spin_lock_bh(&bh_lock);
spin_unlock_bh(&bh_lock);
from 53596 cycles to 51995 cycles. I didn't do enough measurements to
say for absolute sure that the result is significant but the the few
runs I did for each suggest it is so.

Remove the deadline specific sysctls for now. The problem with them is
that the interaction with the exisiting rt knobs is nearly impossible
to get right.
The current (as per before this patch) situation is that the rt and dl
bandwidth is completely separate and we enforce rt+dl < 100%. This is
undesirable because this means that the rt default of 95% leaves us
hardly any room, even though dl tasks are saver than rt tasks.
Another proposed solution was (a discarted patch) to have the dl
bandwidth be a fraction of the rt bandwidth. This is highly
confusing imo.
Furthermore neither proposal is consistent with the situation we
actually want; which is rt tasks ran from a dl server. In which case
the rt bandwidth is a direct subset of dl.
So whichever way we go, the introduction of dl controls at this point
is painful. Therefore remove them and instead share the rt budget.
This means that for now the rt knobs are used for dl admission control
and the dl runtime is accounted against the rt runtime. I realise that
this isn't entirely desirable either; but whatever we do we appear to
need to change the interface later, so better have a small interface
for now.

For now deadline tasks are not allowed to set smp affinity; however
the current tests are wrong, cure this.
The test in __sched_setscheduler() also uses an on-stack cpumask_t
which is a no-no.
Change both tests to use cpumask_subset() such that we test the root
domain span to be a subset of the cpus_allowed mask. This way we're
sure the tasks can always run on all CPUs they can be balanced over,
and have no effective affinity constraints.

Data from tests confirmed that the original active load balancing
logic didn't scale neither in the number of CPU nor in the number of
tasks (as sched_rt does).
Here we provide a global data structure to keep track of deadlines
of the running tasks in the system. The structure is composed by
a bitmask showing the free CPUs and a max-heap, needed when the system
is heavily loaded.
The implementation and concurrent access scheme are kept simple by
design. However, our measurements show that we can compete with sched_rt
on large multi-CPUs machines [1].
Only the push path is addressed, the extension to use this structure
also for pull decisions is straightforward. However, we are currently
evaluating different (in order to decrease/avoid contention) data
structures to solve possibly both problems. We are also going to re-run
tests considering recent changes inside cpupri [2].

In order of deadline scheduling to be effective and useful, it is
important that some method of having the allocation of the available
CPU bandwidth to tasks and task groups under control.
This is usually called "admission control" and if it is not performed
at all, no guarantee can be given on the actual scheduling of the
-deadline tasks.
Since when RT-throttling has been introduced each task group have a
bandwidth associated to itself, calculated as a certain amount of
runtime over a period. Moreover, to make it possible to manipulate
such bandwidth, readable/writable controls have been added to both
procfs (for system wide settings) and cgroupfs (for per-group
settings).
Therefore, the same interface is being used for controlling the
bandwidth distrubution to -deadline tasks and task groups, i.e.,
new controls but with similar names, equivalent meaning and with
the same usage paradigm are added.
However, more discussion is needed in order to figure out how
we want to manage SCHED_DEADLINE bandwidth at the task group level.
Therefore, this patch adds a less sophisticated, but actually
very sensible, mechanism to ensure that a certain utilization
cap is not overcome per each root_domain (the single rq for !SMP
configurations).
Another main difference between deadline bandwidth management and
RT-throttling is that -deadline tasks have bandwidth on their own
(while -rt ones doesn't!), and thus we don't need an higher level
throttling mechanism to enforce the desired bandwidth.
This patch, therefore:
- adds system wide deadline bandwidth management by means of:
* /proc/sys/kernel/sched_dl_runtime_us,
* /proc/sys/kernel/sched_dl_period_us,
that determine (i.e., runtime / period) the total bandwidth
available on each CPU of each root_domain for -deadline tasks;
- couples the RT and deadline bandwidth management, i.e., enforces
that the sum of how much bandwidth is being devoted to -rt
-deadline tasks to stay below 100%.
This means that, for a root_domain comprising M CPUs, -deadline tasks
can be created until the sum of their bandwidths stay below:
M * (sched_dl_runtime_us / sched_dl_period_us)
It is also possible to disable this bandwidth management logic, and
be thus free of oversubscribing the system up to any arbitrary level.

Some method to deal with rt-mutexes and make sched_dl interact with
the current PI-coded is needed, raising all but trivial issues, that
needs (according to us) to be solved with some restructuring of
the pi-code (i.e., going toward a proxy execution-ish implementation).
This is under development, in the meanwhile, as a temporary solution,
what this commits does is:
- ensure a pi-lock owner with waiters is never throttled down. Instead,
when it runs out of runtime, it immediately gets replenished and it's
deadline is postponed;
- the scheduling parameters (relative deadline and default runtime)
used for that replenishments --during the whole period it holds the
pi-lock-- are the ones of the waiting task with earliest deadline.
Acting this way, we provide some kind of boosting to the lock-owner,
still by using the existing (actually, slightly modified by the previous
commit) pi-architecture.
We would stress the fact that this is only a surely needed, all but
clean solution to the problem. In the end it's only a way to re-start
discussion within the community. So, as always, comments, ideas, rants,
etc.. are welcome! :-)

Turn the pi-chains from plist to rb-tree, in the rt_mutex code,
and provide a proper comparison function for -deadline and
-priority tasks.
This is done mainly because:
- classical prio field of the plist is just an int, which might
not be enough for representing a deadline;
- manipulating such a list would become O(nr_deadline_tasks),
which might be to much, as the number of -deadline task increases.
Therefore, an rb-tree is used, and tasks are queued in it according
to the following logic:
- among two -priority (i.e., SCHED_BATCH/OTHER/RR/FIFO) tasks, the
one with the higher (lower, actually!) prio wins;
- among a -priority and a -deadline task, the latter always wins;
- among two -deadline tasks, the one with the earliest deadline
wins.
Queueing and dequeueing functions are changed accordingly, for both
the list of a task's pi-waiters and the list of tasks blocked on
a pi-lock.

It is very likely that systems that wants/needs to use the new
SCHED_DEADLINE policy also want to have the scheduling latency of
the -deadline tasks under control.
For this reason a new version of the scheduling wakeup latency,
called "wakeup_dl", is introduced.
As a consequence of applying this patch there will be three wakeup
latency tracer:
* "wakeup", that deals with all tasks in the system;
* "wakeup_rt", that deals with -rt and -deadline tasks only;
* "wakeup_dl", that deals with -deadline tasks only.

Make it possible to specify a period (different or equal than
deadline) for -deadline tasks. Relative deadlines (D_i) are used on
task arrivals to generate new scheduling (absolute) deadlines as "d =
t + D_i", and periods (P_i) to postpone the scheduling deadlines as "d
= d + P_i" when the budget is zero.
This is in general useful to model (and schedule) tasks that have slow
activation rates (long periods), but have to be scheduled soon once
activated (short deadlines).

Introduces data structures relevant for implementing dynamic
migration of -deadline tasks and the logic for checking if
runqueues are overloaded with -deadline tasks and for choosing
where a task should migrate, when it is the case.
Adds also dynamic migrations to SCHED_DEADLINE, so that tasks can
be moved among CPUs when necessary. It is also possible to bind a
task to a (set of) CPU(s), thus restricting its capability of
migrating, or forbidding migrations at all.
The very same approach used in sched_rt is utilised:
- -deadline tasks are kept into CPU-specific runqueues,
- -deadline tasks are migrated among runqueues to achieve the
following:
* on an M-CPU system the M earliest deadline ready tasks
are always running;
* affinity/cpusets settings of all the -deadline tasks is
always respected.
Therefore, this very special form of "load balancing" is done with
an active method, i.e., the scheduler pushes or pulls tasks between
runqueues when they are woken up and/or (de)scheduled.
IOW, every time a preemption occurs, the descheduled task might be sent
to some other CPU (depending on its deadline) to continue executing
(push). On the other hand, every time a CPU becomes idle, it might pull
the second earliest deadline ready task from some other CPU.
To enforce this, a pull operation is always attempted before taking any
scheduling decision (pre_schedule()), as well as a push one after each
scheduling decision (post_schedule()). In addition, when a task arrives
or wakes up, the best CPU where to resume it is selected taking into
account its affinity mask, the system topology, but also its deadline.
E.g., from the scheduling point of view, the best CPU where to wake
up (and also where to push) a task is the one which is running the task
with the latest deadline among the M executing ones.
In order to facilitate these decisions, per-runqueue "caching" of the
deadlines of the currently running and of the first ready task is used.
Queued but not running tasks are also parked in another rb-tree to
speed-up pushes.

Introduces the data structures, constants and symbols needed for
SCHED_DEADLINE implementation.
Core data structure of SCHED_DEADLINE are defined, along with their
initializers. Hooks for checking if a task belong to the new policy
are also added where they are needed.
Adds a scheduling class, in sched/dl.c and a new policy called
SCHED_DEADLINE. It is an implementation of the Earliest Deadline
First (EDF) scheduling algorithm, augmented with a mechanism (called
Constant Bandwidth Server, CBS) that makes it possible to isolate
the behaviour of tasks between each other.
The typical -deadline task will be made up of a computation phase
(instance) which is activated on a periodic or sporadic fashion. The
expected (maximum) duration of such computation is called the task's
runtime; the time interval by which each instance need to be completed
is called the task's relative deadline. The task's absolute deadline
is dynamically calculated as the time instant a task (better, an
instance) activates plus the relative deadline.
The EDF algorithms selects the task with the smallest absolute
deadline as the one to be executed first, while the CBS ensures each
task to run for at most its runtime every (relative) deadline
length time interval, avoiding any interference between different
tasks (bandwidth isolation).
Thanks to this feature, also tasks that do not strictly comply with
the computational model sketched above can effectively use the new
policy.
To summarize, this patch:
- introduces the data structures, constants and symbols needed;
- implements the core logic of the scheduling algorithm in the new
scheduling class file;
- provides all the glue code between the new scheduling class and
the core scheduler and refines the interactions between sched/dl
and the other existing scheduling classes.

Add the syscalls needed for supporting scheduling algorithms
with extended scheduling parameters (e.g., SCHED_DEADLINE).
In general, it makes possible to specify a periodic/sporadic task,
that executes for a given amount of runtime at each instance, and is
scheduled according to the urgency of their own timing constraints,
i.e.:
- a (maximum/typical) instance execution time,
- a minimum interval between consecutive instances,
- a time constraint by which each instance must be completed.
Thus, both the data structure that holds the scheduling parameters of
the tasks and the system calls dealing with it must be extended.
Unfortunately, modifying the existing struct sched_param would break
the ABI and result in potentially serious compatibility issues with
legacy binaries.
For these reasons, this patch:
- defines the new struct sched_attr, containing all the fields
that are necessary for specifying a task in the computational
model described above;
- defines and implements the new scheduling related syscalls that
manipulate it, i.e., sched_setattr() and sched_getattr().
Syscalls are introduced for x86 (32 and 64 bits) and ARM only, as a
proof of concept and for developing and testing purposes. Making them
available on other architectures is straightforward.
Since no "user" for these new parameters is introduced in this patch,
the implementation of the new system calls is just identical to their
already existing counterpart. Future patches that implement scheduling
policies able to exploit the new data structure must also take care of
modifying the sched_*attr() calls accordingly with their own purposes.

In futex_wake() there is clearly no point in taking the hb->lock
if we know beforehand that there are no tasks to be woken. While
the hash bucket's plist head is a cheap way of knowing this, we
cannot rely 100% on it as there is a racy window between the
futex_wait call and when the task is actually added to the
plist. To this end, we couple it with the spinlock check as
tasks trying to enter the critical region are most likely
potential waiters that will be added to the plist, thus
preventing tasks sleeping forever if wakers don't acknowledge
all possible waiters.
Furthermore, the futex ordering guarantees are preserved,
ensuring that waiters either observe the changed user space
value before blocking or is woken by a concurrent waker. For
wakers, this is done by relying on the barriers in
get_futex_key_refs() -- for archs that do not have implicit mb
in atomic_inc(), we explicitly add them through a new
futex_get_mm function. For waiters we rely on the fact that
spin_lock calls already update the head counter, so spinners
are visible even if the lock hasn't been acquired yet.
For more details please refer to the updated comments in the
code and related discussion:

Currently, the futex global hash table suffers from its fixed,
smallish (for today's standards) size of 256 entries, as well as
its lack of NUMA awareness. Large systems, using many futexes,
can be prone to high amounts of collisions; where these futexes
hash to the same bucket and lead to extra contention on the same
hb->lock. Furthermore, cacheline bouncing is a reality when we
have multiple hb->locks residing on the same cacheline and
different futexes hash to adjacent buckets.
This patch keeps the current static size of 16 entries for small
systems, or otherwise, 256 * ncpus (or larger as we need to
round the number to a power of 2). Note that this number of CPUs
accounts for all CPUs that can ever be available in the system,
taking into consideration things like hotpluging. While we do
impose extra overhead at bootup by making the hash table larger,
this is a one time thing, and does not shadow the benefits of
this patch.
Furthermore, as suggested by tglx, by cache aligning the hash
buckets we can avoid access across cacheline boundaries and also
avoid massive cache line bouncing if multiple cpus are hammering
away at different hash buckets which happen to reside in the
same cache line.
Also, similar to other core kernel components (pid, dcache,
tcp), by using alloc_large_system_hash() we benefit from its
NUMA awareness and thus the table is distributed among the nodes
instead of in a single one.
For a custom microbenchmark that pounds on the uaddr hashing --
making the wait path fail at futex_wait_setup() returning
-EWOULDBLOCK for large amounts of futexes, we can see the
following benefits on a 80-core, 8-socket 1Tb server:

signalfd (SFD_CLOEXEC), timerfd_create (TFD_CLOEXEC),
or the venerable general purpose open (O_CLOEXEC),
perf_event_open() syscall lack a flag to atomically set FD_CLOEXEC
(eg. close-on-exec) flag on file descriptor it returns to userspace.
The present patch adds a PERF_FLAG_FD_CLOEXEC flag to allow
perf_event_open() syscall to atomically set close-on-exec.
Having this flag will enable userspace to remove the file descriptor
from the list of file descriptors being inherited across exec,
without the need to call fcntl(fd, F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC) and the
associated race condition between the current thread and another
thread calling fork(2) then execve(2).

This patch fixes a problem with the initialization of the
struct perf_event active_entry field. It is defined inside
an anonymous union and was initialized in perf_event_alloc()
using INIT_LIST_HEAD(). However at that time, we do not know
whether the event is going to use active_entry or hlist_entry (SW).
Or at last, we don't want to make that determination there.
The problem is that hlist and list_head are not initialized
the same way. One is okay with NULL (from kzmalloc), the other
needs to pointers to point to self.
This patch resolves this problem by dropping the union.
This will avoid problems later on, if someone starts using
active_entry or hlist_entry without verifying that they
actually overlap. This also solves the initialization
problem.

Unfortunately the seqlock lockdep enablement can't be used
in sched_clock(), since the lockdep infrastructure eventually
calls into sched_clock(), which causes a deadlock.
Thus, this patch changes all generic sched_clock() usage
to use the raw_* methods.

Thomas Hellstrom bisected a regression where erratic 3D performance is
experienced on virtual machines as measured by glxgears. It identified
commit 58d081b5 ("sched/numa: Avoid overloading CPUs on a preferred NUMA
node") as the problem which had modified the behaviour of effective_load.
Effective load calculates the difference to the system-wide load if a
scheduling entity was moved to another CPU. The task group is not heavier
as a result of the move but overall system load can increase/decrease as a
result of the change. Commit 58d081b5 ("sched/numa: Avoid overloading CPUs
on a preferred NUMA node") changed effective_load to make it suitable for
calculating if a particular NUMA node was compute overloaded. To reduce
the cost of the function, it assumed that a current sched entity weight
of 0 was uninteresting but that is not the case.
wake_affine() uses a weight of 0 for sync wakeups on the grounds that it
is assuming the waking task will sleep and not contribute to load in the
near future. In this case, we still want to calculate the effective load
of the sched entity hierarchy. As effective_load is no longer used by
task_numa_compare since commit fb13c7ee (sched/numa: Use a system-wide
search to find swap/migration candidates), this patch simply restores the
historical behaviour.

ftrace_trace_function is a variable that holds what function will be called
directly by the assembly code (mcount). If just a single function is
registered and it handles recursion itself, then the assembly will call that
function directly without any helper function. It also passes in the
ftrace_op that was registered with the callback. The ftrace_op to send is
stored in the function_trace_op variable.
The ftrace_trace_function and function_trace_op needs to be coordinated such
that the called callback wont be called with the wrong ftrace_op, otherwise
bad things can happen if it expected a different op. Luckily, there's no
callback that doesn't use the helper functions that requires this. But
there soon will be and this needs to be fixed.
Use a set_function_trace_op to store the ftrace_op to set the
function_trace_op to when it is safe to do so (during the update function
within the breakpoint or stop machine calls). Or if dynamic ftrace is not
being used (static tracing) then we have to do a bit more synchronization
when the ftrace_trace_function is set as that takes affect immediately
(as oppose to dynamic ftrace doing it with the modification of the trampoline).

Currently there's no way to know what triggers exist on a kernel without
looking at the source of the kernel or randomly trying out triggers.
Instead of creating another file in the debugfs system, simply show
what available triggers are there when cat'ing the trigger file when
it has no events:
[root /sys/kernel/debug/tracing]# cat events/sched/sched_switch/trigger
# Available triggers:
# traceon traceoff snapshot stacktrace enable_event disable_event
This stays consistent with other debugfs files where meta data like
this is always proceeded with a '#' at the start of the line so that
tools can strip these out.

The event trigger code that checks for callback triggers before and
after recording of an event has lots of flags checks. This code is
duplicated throughout the ftrace events, kprobes and system calls.
They all do the exact same checks against the event flags.
Added helper functions ftrace_trigger_soft_disabled(),
event_trigger_unlock_commit() and event_trigger_unlock_commit_regs()
that consolidated the code and these are used instead.

Add code to the kprobe/kretprobe event functions that will invoke any
event triggers associated with a probe's ftrace_event_file.
The code to do this is very similar to the invocation code already
used to invoke the triggers associated with static events and
essentially replaces the existing soft-disable checks with a superset
that preserves the original behavior but adds the bits needed to
support event triggers.

When kprobe-based dynamic event tracer is not enabled, it caused

...
It was due to the fetch methods are referred from CHECK_FETCH_FUNCS
macro and since it was only defined in trace_kprobe.c. Move NULL
definition of such fetch functions to the header file.
Note, it also requires CONFIG_BRANCH_PROFILING enabled to trigger
this failure as well. This is because the "fetch_symbol_*" variables
are referenced in a "else if" statement that will only call
update_symbol_cache(), which is a static inline stub function
when CONFIG_KPROBE_EVENT is not enabled. gcc is smart enough
to optimize this "else if" out and that also removes the code that
references the undefined variables.
But when BRANCH_PROFILING is enabled, it fools gcc into keeping
the if statement around and thus references the undefined symbols
and fails to build.

Fetching from user space should be done in a non-atomic context. So
use a per-cpu buffer and copy its content to the ring buffer
atomically. Note that we can migrate during accessing user memory
thus use a per-cpu mutex to protect concurrent accesses.
This is needed since we'll be able to fetch args from an user memory
which can be swapped out. Before that uprobes could fetch args from
registers only which saved in a kernel space.
While at it, use __get_data_size() and store_trace_args() to reduce
code duplication. And add struct uprobe_cpu_buffer and its helpers as
suggested by Oleg.

This is the second time that function was added to a file ops and
it broke the build due to requiring special config dependencies.
Make a generic tracing_lseek() that all the tracing utilities may

Also, modify the old ftrace_filter_lseek() to return 0 instead of
1 on WRONLY. Not sure why it was a 1 as that does not make sense.
This also changes the old tracing_seek() to modify the file pos

writeback being converted to workqueue some releases ago. The bug has
nothing to do with libata but it's just an workaround which is easy to
backport. After discussion, Rafael and I seem to agree that we don't
really need kernel freezables - both kthread and workqueue. There are
few specific workqueues which constitute PM operations and require
freezing, which will be converted to use workqueue_set_max_active()
instead. All other kernel freezer uses are planned to be removed,
followed by the removal of kthread and workqueue freezer support,
hopefully.
Others are device-specific fixes. The most notable is the addition of
NO_NCQ_TRIM which is used to disable queued TRIM commands to Micro

Since 48cdc135d4 (Implement a shadow timekeeper), we have to
call timekeeping_update() after any adjustment to the timekeeping
structure in order to make sure that any adjustments to the structure
persist.
In the timekeeping suspend path, we udpate the timekeeper
structure, so we should be sure to update the shadow-timekeeper
before releasing the timekeeping locks. Currently this isn't done.
In most cases, the next time related code to run would be
timekeeping_resume, which does update the shadow-timekeeper, but
in an abundence of caution, this patch adds the call to
timekeeping_update() in the suspend path.

Since the xtime lock was split into the timekeeping lock and
the jiffies lock, we no longer need to call update_wall_time()
while holding the jiffies lock.
Thus, this patch splits update_wall_time() out from do_timer().
This allows us to get away from calling clock_was_set_delayed()
in update_wall_time() and instead use the standard clock_was_set()
call that previously would deadlock, as it causes the jiffies lock
to be acquired.

As part of normal operaions, the hrtimer subsystem frequently calls
into the timekeeping code, creating a locking order of
hrtimer locks -> timekeeping locks
clock_was_set_delayed() was suppoed to allow us to avoid deadlocks
between the timekeeping the hrtimer subsystem, so that we could
notify the hrtimer subsytem the time had changed while holding
the timekeeping locks. This was done by scheduling delayed work
that would run later once we were out of the timekeeing code.
But unfortunately the lock chains are complex enoguh that in
scheduling delayed work, we end up eventually trying to grab
an hrtimer lock.
Sasha Levin noticed this in testing when the new seqlock lockdep
enablement triggered the following (somewhat abrieviated) message:

So the best solution is to avoid calling clock_was_set_delayed() while
holding the timekeeping lock, and instead using a flag variable to
decide if we should call clock_was_set() once we've released the locks.
This works for the case here, where the do_adjtimex() was the deadlock
trigger point. Unfortuantely, in update_wall_time() we still hold
the jiffies lock, which would deadlock with the ipi triggered by
clock_was_set(), preventing us from calling it even after we drop the
timekeeping lock. So instead call clock_was_set_delayed() at that point.

In 780427f0e1 (Indicate that clock was set in the pvclock
gtod notifier), logic was added to pass a CLOCK_WAS_SET
notification to the pvclock notifier chain.
While that patch added a action flag returned from
accumulate_nsecs_to_secs(), it only uses the returned value
in one location, and not in the logarithmic accumulation.
This means if a leap second triggered during the logarithmic
accumulation (which is most likely where it would happen),
the notification that the clock was set would not make it to
the pv notifiers.
This patch extends the logarithmic_accumulation pass down
that action flag so proper notification will occur.
This patch also changes the varialbe action -> clock_set
per Ingo's suggestion.

Unfortunately, the updates to the tai offset via adjtimex do not

Add a generic event_command.set_trigger_filter() op implementation and
have the current set of trigger commands use it - this essentially
gives them all support for filters.
Syntactically, filters are supported by adding 'if <filter>' just
after the command, in which case only events matching the filter will
invoke the trigger. For example, to add a filter to an
enable/disable_event command:
echo 'enable_event:system:event if common_pid == 999' > \
.../othersys/otherevent/trigger
The above command will only enable the system:event event if the
common_pid field in the othersys:otherevent event is 999.
As another example, to add a filter to a stacktrace command:
echo 'stacktrace if common_pid == 999' > \
.../somesys/someevent/trigger
The above command will only trigger a stacktrace if the common_pid
field in the event is 999.
The filter syntax is the same as that described in the 'Event
filtering' section of Documentation/trace/events.txt.
Because triggers can now use filters, the trigger-invoking logic needs
to be moved in those cases - e.g. for ftrace_raw_event_calls, if a
trigger has a filter associated with it, the trigger invocation now
needs to happen after the { assign; } part of the call, in order for
the trigger condition to be tested.
There's still a SOFT_DISABLED-only check at the top of e.g. the
ftrace_raw_events function, so when an event is soft disabled but not
because of the presence of a trigger, the original SOFT_DISABLED
behavior remains unchanged.
There's also a bit of trickiness in that some triggers need to avoid
being invoked while an event is currently in the process of being
logged, since the trigger may itself log data into the trace buffer.
Thus we make sure the current event is committed before invoking those
triggers. To do that, we split the trigger invocation in two - the
first part (event_triggers_call()) checks the filter using the current
trace record; if a command has the post_trigger flag set, it sets a
bit for itself in the return value, otherwise it directly invoks the
trigger. Once all commands have been either invoked or set their
return flag, event_triggers_call() returns. The current record is
then either committed or discarded; if any commands have deferred
their triggers, those commands are finally invoked following the close
of the current event by event_triggers_post_call().
To simplify the above and make it more efficient, the TRIGGER_COND bit
is introduced, which is set only if a soft-disabled trigger needs to
use the log record for filter testing or needs to wait until the
current log record is closed.
The syscall event invocation code is also changed in analogous ways.
Because event triggers need to be able to create and free filters,
this also adds a couple external wrappers for the existing
create_filter and free_filter functions, which are too generic to be
made extern functions themselves.

This also makes the find_event_file() helper function extern, since
it's useful to use from other places, such as the event triggers code,
so make it accessible.

command parsing and registration for most normal commands.
Most event commands will use these, but some will override and

Add a 'trigger' file for each trace event, enabling 'trace event
triggers' to be set for trace events.
'trace event triggers' are patterned after the existing 'ftrace
function triggers' implementation except that triggers are written to
per-event 'trigger' files instead of to a single file such as the
'set_ftrace_filter' used for ftrace function triggers.
The implementation is meant to be entirely separate from ftrace
function triggers, in order to keep the respective implementations
relatively simple and to allow them to diverge.
The event trigger functionality is built on top of SOFT_DISABLE
functionality. It adds a TRIGGER_MODE bit to the ftrace_event_file
flags which is checked when any trace event fires. Triggers set for a
particular event need to be checked regardless of whether that event
is actually enabled or not - getting an event to fire even if it's not
enabled is what's already implemented by SOFT_DISABLE mode, so trigger
mode directly reuses that. Event trigger essentially inherit the soft
disable logic in __ftrace_event_enable_disable() while adding a bit of
logic and trigger reference counting via tm_ref on top of that in a
new trace_event_trigger_enable_disable() function. Because the base
__ftrace_event_enable_disable() code now needs to be invoked from
outside trace_events.c, a wrapper is also added for those usages.
The triggers for an event are actually invoked via a new function,
event_triggers_call(), and code is also added to invoke them for
ftrace_raw_event calls as well as syscall events.
The main part of the patch creates a new trace_events_trigger.c file
to contain the trace event triggers implementation.
The standard open, read, and release file operations are implemented
here.
The open() implementation sets up for the various open modes of the
'trigger' file. It creates and attaches the trigger iterator and sets
up the command parser. If opened for reading set up the trigger
seq_ops.
The read() implementation parses the event trigger written to the
'trigger' file, looks up the trigger command, and passes it along to
that event_command's func() implementation for command-specific
processing.
The release() implementation does whatever cleanup is needed to
release the 'trigger' file, like releasing the parser and trigger
iterator, etc.
A couple of functions for event command registration and
unregistration are added, along with a list to add them to and a mutex
to protect them, as well as an (initially empty) registration function
to add the set of commands that will be added by future commits, and
call to it from the trace event initialization code.
also added are a couple trigger-specific data structures needed for
these implementations such as a trigger iterator and a struct for
trigger-specific data.
A couple structs consisting mostly of function meant to be implemented
in command-specific ways, event_command and event_trigger_ops, are
used by the generic event trigger command implementations. They're
being put into trace.h alongside the other trace_event data structures
and functions, in the expectation that they'll be needed in several
trace_event-related files such as trace_events_trigger.c and
trace_events.c.
The event_command.func() function is meant to be called by the trigger
parsing code in order to add a trigger instance to the corresponding
event. It essentially coordinates adding a live trigger instance to
the event, and arming the triggering the event.
Every event_command func() implementation essentially does the
same thing for any command:
- choose ops - use the value of param to choose either a number or
count version of event_trigger_ops specific to the command
- do the register or unregister of those ops
- associate a filter, if specified, with the triggering event
The reg() and unreg() ops allow command-specific implementations for
event_trigger_op registration and unregistration, and the
get_trigger_ops() op allows command-specific event_trigger_ops
selection to be parameterized. When a trigger instance is added, the
reg() op essentially adds that trigger to the triggering event and
arms it, while unreg() does the opposite. The set_filter() function
is used to associate a filter with the trigger - if the command
doesn't specify a set_filter() implementation, the command will ignore
filters.
Each command has an associated trigger_type, which serves double duty,
both as a unique identifier for the command as well as a value that
can be used for setting a trigger mode bit during trigger invocation.
The signature of func() adds a pointer to the event_command struct,
used to invoke those functions, along with a command_data param that
can be passed to the reg/unreg functions. This allows func()
implementations to use command-specific blobs and supports code
re-use.
The event_trigger_ops.func() command corrsponds to the trigger 'probe'
function that gets called when the triggering event is actually
invoked. The other functions are used to list the trigger when
needed, along with a couple mundane book-keeping functions.
This also moves event_file_data() into trace.h so it can be used
outside of trace_events.c.

The problem is that the profiler only initializes the online
CPUs, and not possible CPUs. This causes issues if the user takes
CPUs online or offline while the profiler is running.
If we online a CPU after starting the profiler, we lose all the
trace information on the CPU going online.
If we offline a CPU after running a test and start a new test, it
will not clear the old data from that CPU.
This bug causes incorrect data to be reported to the user if they
online or offline CPUs during the profiling.

Freezable kthreads and workqueues are fundamentally problematic in
that they effectively introduce a big kernel lock widely used in the
kernel and have already been the culprit of several deadlock
scenarios. This is the latest occurrence.
During resume, libata rescans all the ports and revalidates all
pre-existing devices. If it determines that a device has gone
missing, the device is removed from the system which involves
invalidating block device and flushing bdi while holding driver core
layer locks. Unfortunately, this can race with the rest of device
resume. Because freezable kthreads and workqueues are thawed after
device resume is complete and block device removal depends on
freezable workqueues and kthreads (e.g. bdi_wq, jbd2) to make
progress, this can lead to deadlock - block device removal can't
proceed because kthreads are frozen and kthreads can't be thawed
because device resume is blocked behind block device removal.
839a8e8660 ("writeback: replace custom worker pool implementation
with unbound workqueue") made this particular deadlock scenario more
visible but the underlying problem has always been there - the
original forker task and jbd2 are freezable too. In fact, this is
highly likely just one of many possible deadlock scenarios given that
freezer behaves as a big kernel lock and we don't have any debug
mechanism around it.
I believe the right thing to do is getting rid of freezable kthreads
and workqueues. This is something fundamentally broken. For now,
implement a funny workaround in libata - just avoid doing block device
hot[un]plug while the system is frozen. Kernel engineering at its
finest. :(
v2: Add EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(pm_freezing) for cases where libata is built
as a module.
v3: Comment updated and polling interval changed to 10ms as suggested
by Rafael.
v4: Add #ifdef CONFIG_FREEZER around the hack as pm_freezing is not
defined when FREEZER is not configured thus breaking build.

...
There are a few subtle races, between change_protection_range (used by
mprotect and change_prot_numa) on one side, and NUMA page migration and
compaction on the other side.
The basic race is that there is a time window between when the PTE gets
made non-present (PROT_NONE or NUMA), and the TLB is flushed.
During that time, a CPU may continue writing to the page.
This is fine most of the time, however compaction or the NUMA migration
code may come in, and migrate the page away.
When that happens, the CPU may continue writing, through the cached
translation, to what is no longer the current memory location of the
process.
This only affects x86, which has a somewhat optimistic pte_accessible.
All other architectures appear to be safe, and will either always flush,
or flush whenever there is a valid mapping, even with no permissions
(SPARC).
The basic race looks like this:
CPU A CPU B CPU C
load TLB entry
make entry PTE/PMD_NUMA
fault on entry
read/write old page
start migrating page
change PTE/PMD to new page
read/write old page [*]
flush TLB
reload TLB from new entry
read/write new page
lose data
[*] the old page may belong to a new user at this point!
The obvious fix is to flush remote TLB entries, by making sure that
pte_accessible aware of the fact that PROT_NONE and PROT_NUMA memory may
still be accessible if there is a TLB flush pending for the mm.
This should fix both NUMA migration and compaction.

Commit 1b3a5d02ee ("reboot: move arch/x86 reboot= handling to generic
kernel") moved reboot= handling to generic code. In the process it also
removed the code in native_machine_shutdown() which are moving reboot
process to reboot_cpu/cpu0.
I guess that thought must have been that all reboot paths are calling
migrate_to_reboot_cpu(), so we don't need this special handling. But
kexec reboot path (kernel_kexec()) is not calling
migrate_to_reboot_cpu() so above change broke kexec. Now reboot can
happen on non-boot cpu and when INIT is sent in second kerneo to bring
up BP, it brings down the machine.
So start calling migrate_to_reboot_cpu() in kexec reboot path to avoid
this problem.

So improve the message by testing for this case specifically:

with in the core code.

This patch touches the RT group scheduling case.
Functions inc_rt_prio_smp() and dec_rt_prio_smp() change (global) rq's
priority, while rt_rq passed to them may be not the top-level rt_rq.
This is wrong, because changing of priority on a child level does not
guarantee that the priority is the highest all over the rq. So, this
leak makes RT balancing unusable.
The short example: the task having the highest priority among all rq's
RT tasks (no one other task has the same priority) are waking on a
throttle rt_rq. The rq's cpupri is set to the task's priority
equivalent, but real rq->rt.highest_prio.curr is less.
The patch below fixes the problem.

Commit 42eb088e (sched: Avoid NULL dereference on sd_busy) corrected a NULL
dereference on sd_busy but the fix also altered what scheduling domain it
used for the 'sd_llc' percpu variable.
One impact of this is that a task selecting a runqueue may consider
idle CPUs that are not cache siblings as candidates for running.
Tasks are then running on CPUs that are not cache hot.
This was found through bisection where ebizzy threads were not seeing equal
performance and it looked like a scheduling fairness issue. This patch
mitigates but does not completely fix the problem on all machines tested
implying there may be an additional bug or a common root cause. Here are
the average range of performance seen by individual ebizzy threads. It
was tested on top of candidate patches related to x86 TLB range flushing.

Currently, only one PMU in a context gets disabled during unthrottling
and event_sched_{out,in}(), however, events in one context may belong to
different pmus, which results in PMUs being reprogrammed while they are
still enabled.
This means that mixed PMU use [which is rare in itself] resulted in
potentially completely unreliable results: corrupted events, bogus
results, etc.
This patch temporarily disables PMUs that correspond to
each event in the context while these events are being modified.

Instead of removing cgroup id right after all the csses have been
offlined, we should do that after csses have been destroyed.
To make sure an invalid css pointer won't be returned after the css
is destroyed, make sure css_from_id() returns NULL in this case.
tj: Updated comment to note planned changes for cgrp->id.

Ftrace currently initializes only the online CPUs. This implementation has
two problems:
- If we online a CPU after we enable the function profile, and then run the
test, we will lose the trace information on that CPU.
Steps to reproduce:
# echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
# cd <debugfs>/tracing/
# echo <some function name> >> set_ftrace_filter
# echo 1 > function_profile_enabled
# echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
# run test
- If we offline a CPU before we enable the function profile, we will not clear
the trace information when we enable the function profile. It will trouble
the users.
Steps to reproduce:
# cd <debugfs>/tracing/
# echo <some function name> >> set_ftrace_filter
# echo 1 > function_profile_enabled
# run test
# cat trace_stat/function*
# echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
# echo 0 > function_profile_enabled
# echo 1 > function_profile_enabled
# cat trace_stat/function*
# run test
# cat trace_stat/function*
So it is better that we initialize the ftrace profiler for each possible cpu
every time we enable the function profile instead of just the online ones.

RCU must ensure that there is the equivalent of a full memory
barrier between any memory access preceding grace period and any
memory access following that same grace period, regardless of
which CPU(s) happen to execute the two memory accesses.
Therefore, downgrading UNLOCK+LOCK to no longer imply a full
memory barrier requires some adjustments to RCU.
This commit therefore adds smp_mb__after_unlock_lock()
invocations as needed after the RCU lock acquisitions that need
to be part of a full-memory-barrier UNLOCK+LOCK.

Calling cgroup_unload_subsys() from cgroup_load_subsys() after
online_css() failure will result in a NULL ptr dereference on attempt to
offline_css(), because online_css() only assigns css to cgroup on
success. Let's fix that by skipping calls to offline_css() and
css_free() in cgroup_unload_subsys() if there is no css, and freeing css
in cgroup_load_subsys() on online_css() failure.

Fix the gathering of certificates from both the source tree and the build tree
to correctly calculate the pathnames of all the certificates.
The problem was that if the default generated cert, signing_key.x509, didn't
exist then it would not have a path attached and if it did, it would have a
path attached.
This means that the contents of kernel/.x509.list would change between the
first compilation in a directory and the second. After the second it would
remain stable because the signing_key.x509 file exists.
The consequence was that the kernel would get relinked unconditionally on the
second recompilation. The second recompilation would also show something like
this:
X.509 certificate list changed
CERTS kernel/x509_certificate_list
- Including cert /home/torvalds/v2.6/linux/signing_key.x509
AS kernel/system_certificates.o
LD kernel/built-in.o
which is why the relink would happen.
Unfortunately, it isn't a simple matter of just sticking a path on the front
of the filename of the certificate in the build directory as make can't then
work out how to build it.
So the path has to be prepended to the name for sorting and duplicate
elimination and then removed for the make rule if it is in the build tree.

If the rcutorture SRCU output exceeds 4096 bytes, for example, if you
have more than about 75 CPUs, it will overflow the current statically
allocated buffer. This commit therefore replaces this static buffer
with a dynamically buffer whose size is based on the number of CPUs.
Benefits:
- Avoids both buffer overflow and output truncation.
- Handles an arbitrarily large number of CPUs.
- Straightforward implementation.
Shortcomings:
- Some memory is wasted:
1 cpu now comsumes 50 - 60 bytes, and this patch provides 200 bytes.
Therefore, for 1K CPUs, roughly 100KB of memory will be wasted.
However, the memory is freed immediately after printing, so this
wastage should not be a problem in practice.
Testing (Fedora16 2 CPUs, 2GB RAM x86_64):
- as module, with/without "torture_type=srcu".
- build-in not boot runnable, with/without "torture_type=srcu".
- build-in let boot runnable, with/without "torture_type=srcu".

Whenever a CPU receives a scheduling-clock interrupt, RCU checks to see
if the RCU core needs anything from this CPU. If so, RCU raises
RCU_SOFTIRQ to carry out any needed processing.
This approach has worked well historically, but it is undesirable on
NO_HZ_FULL CPUs. Such CPUs are expected to spend almost all of their time
in userspace, so that scheduling-clock interrupts can be disabled while
there is only one runnable task on the CPU in question. Unfortunately,
raising any softirq has the potential to wake up ksoftirqd, which would
provide the second runnable task on that CPU, preventing disabling of
scheduling-clock interrupts.
What is needed instead is for RCU to leave NO_HZ_FULL CPUs alone,
relying on the grace-period kthreads' quiescent-state forcing to
do any needed RCU work on behalf of those CPUs.
This commit therefore refrains from raising RCU_SOFTIRQ on any
NO_HZ_FULL CPUs during any grace periods that have been in effect
for less than one second. The one-second limit handles the case
where an inappropriate workload is running on a NO_HZ_FULL CPU
that features lots of scheduling-clock interrupts, but no idle
or userspace time.
