Pull thread management updates from Christian Brauner:
"Sargun Dhillon over the last cycle has worked on the pidfd_getfd()
syscall.
This syscall allows for the retrieval of file descriptors of a process
based on its pidfd. A task needs to have ptrace_may_access()
permissions with PTRACE_MODE_ATTACH_REALCREDS (suggested by Oleg and
Andy) on the target.
One of the main use-cases is in combination with seccomp's user
notification feature. As a reminder, seccomp's user notification
feature was made available in v5.0. It allows a task to retrieve a
file descriptor for its seccomp filter. The file descriptor is usually
handed of to a more privileged supervising process. The supervisor can
then listen for syscall events caught by the seccomp filter of the
supervisee and perform actions in lieu of the supervisee, usually
emulating syscalls. pidfd_getfd() is needed to expand its uses.
There are currently two major users that wait on pidfd_getfd() and one
future user:
- Netflix, Sargun said, is working on a service mesh where users
should be able to connect to a dns-based VIP. When a user connects
to e.g. 1.2.3.4:80 that runs e.g. service "foo" they will be
redirected to an envoy process. This service mesh uses seccomp user
notifications and pidfd to intercept all connect calls and instead
of connecting them to 1.2.3.4:80 connects them to e.g.
127.0.0.1:8080.
- LXD uses the seccomp notifier heavily to intercept and emulate
mknod() and mount() syscalls for unprivileged containers/processes.
With pidfd_getfd() more uses-cases e.g. bridging socket connections
will be possible.
- The patchset has also seen some interest from the browser corner.
Right now, Firefox is using a SECCOMP_RET_TRAP sandbox managed by a
broker process. In the future glibc will start blocking all signals
during dlopen() rendering this type of sandbox impossible. Hence,
in the future Firefox will switch to a seccomp-user-nofication
based sandbox which also makes use of file descriptor retrieval.
The thread for this can be found at
https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2019-12/msg00079.html
With pidfd_getfd() it is e.g. possible to bridge socket connections
for the supervisee (binding to a privileged port) and taking actions
on file descriptors on behalf of the supervisee in general.
Sargun's first version was using an ioctl on pidfds but various people
pushed for it to be a proper syscall which he duely implemented as
well over various review cycles. Selftests are of course included.
I've also added instructions how to deal with merge conflicts below.
There's also a small fix coming from the kernel mentee project to
correctly annotate struct sighand_struct with __rcu to fix various
sparse warnings. We've received a few more such fixes and even though
they are mostly trivial I've decided to postpone them until after -rc1
since they came in rather late and I don't want to risk introducing
build warnings.
Finally, there's a new prctl() command PR_{G,S}ET_IO_FLUSHER which is
needed to avoid allocation recursions triggerable by storage drivers
that have userspace parts that run in the IO path (e.g. dm-multipath,
iscsi, etc). These allocation recursions deadlock the device.
The new prctl() allows such privileged userspace components to avoid
allocation recursions by setting the PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO and
PF_LESS_THROTTLE flags. The patch carries the necessary acks from the
relevant maintainers and is routed here as part of prctl()
thread-management."

rseq: Unregister rseq for clone CLONE_VM
It has been reported by Google that rseq is not behaving properly with respect to clone when CLONE_VM is used without CLONE_THREAD. It keeps the prior thread's rseq TLS registered when the TLS of the thread has moved, so the kernel can corrupt the TLS of the parent. The approach of clearing the per task-struct rseq registration on clone with CLONE_THREAD flag is incomplete. It does not cover the use-case of clone with CLONE_VM set, but without CLONE_THREAD. Here is the rationale for unregistering rseq on clone with CLONE_VM flag set: 1) CLONE_THREAD requires CLONE_SIGHAND, which requires CLONE_VM to be set. Therefore, just checking for CLONE_VM covers all CLONE_THREAD uses. There is no point in checking for both CLONE_THREAD and CLONE_VM, 2) There is the possibility of an unlikely scenario where CLONE_SETTLS is used without CLONE_VM. In order to be an issue, it would require that the rseq TLS is in a shared memory area. I do not plan on adding CLONE_SETTLS to the set of clone flags which unregister RSEQ, because it would require that we also unregister RSEQ on set_thread_area(2) and arch_prctl(2) ARCH_SET_FS for completeness. So rather than doing a partial solution, it appears better to let user-space explicitly perform rseq unregistration across clone if needed in scenarios where CLONE_VM is not set.

kcov: remote coverage support
Patch series " kcov: collect coverage from usb and vhost", v3. This patchset extends kcov to allow collecting coverage from backgound kernel threads. This extension requires custom annotations for each of the places where coverage collection is desired. This patchset implements this for hub events in the USB subsystem and for vhost workers. See the first patch description for details about the kcov extension. The other two patches apply this kcov extension to USB and vhost. Examples of other subsystems that might potentially benefit from this when custom annotations are added (the list is based on process_one_work() callers for bugs recently reported by syzbot): 1. fs: writeback wb_workfn() worker, 2. net: addrconf_dad_work()/addrconf_verify_work() workers, 3. net: neigh_periodic_work() worker, 4. net/p9: p9_write_work()/p9_read_work() workers, 5. block: blk_mq_run_work_fn() worker. These patches have been used to enable coverage-guided USB fuzzing with syzkaller for the last few years, see the details here: https://github.com/google/syzkaller/blob/master/docs/linux/external_fuzzing_usb.md This patchset has been pushed to the public Linux kernel Gerrit instance: https://linux-review.googlesource.com/c/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux/+/1524 This patch (of 3): Add background thread coverage collection ability to kcov. With KCOV_ENABLE coverage is collected only for syscalls that are issued from the current process. With KCOV_REMOTE_ENABLE it's possible to collect coverage for arbitrary parts of the kernel code, provided that those parts are annotated with kcov_remote_start()/kcov_remote_stop(). This allows to collect coverage from two types of kernel background threads: the global ones, that are spawned during kernel boot in a limited number of instances (e.g. one USB hub_event() worker thread is spawned per USB HCD); and the local ones, that are spawned when a user interacts with some kernel interface (e.g. vhost workers). To enable collecting coverage from a global background thread, a unique global handle must be assigned and passed to the corresponding kcov_remote_start() call. Then a userspace process can pass a list of such handles to the KCOV_REMOTE_ENABLE ioctl in the handles array field of the kcov_remote_arg struct. This will attach the used kcov device to the code sections, that are referenced by those handles. Since there might be many local background threads spawned from different userspace processes, we can't use a single global handle per annotation. Instead, the userspace process passes a non-zero handle through the common_handle field of the kcov_remote_arg struct. This common handle gets saved to the kcov_handle field in the current task_struct and needs to be passed to the newly spawned threads via custom annotations. Those threads should in turn be annotated with kcov_remote_start()/kcov_remote_stop(). Internally kcov stores handles as u64 integers. The top byte of a handle is used to denote the id of a subsystem that this handle belongs to, and the lower 4 bytes are used to denote the id of a thread instance within that subsystem. A reserved value 0 is used as a subsystem id for common handles as they don't belong to a particular subsystem. The bytes 4-7 are currently reserved and must be zero. In the future the number of bytes used for the subsystem or handle ids might be increased. When a particular userspace process collects coverage by via a common handle, kcov will collect coverage for each code section that is annotated to use the common handle obtained as kcov_handle from the current task_struct. However non common handles allow to collect coverage selectively from different subsystems.

io-wq: small threadpool implementation for io_uring
This adds support for io-wq, a smaller and specialized thread pool implementation. This is meant to replace workqueues for io_uring. Among the reasons for this addition are: - We can assign memory context smarter and more persistently if we manage the life time of threads. - We can drop various work-arounds we have in io_uring, like the async_list. - We can implement hashed work insertion, to manage concurrency of buffered writes without needing a) an extra workqueue, or b) needlessly making the concurrency of said workqueue very low which hurts performance of multiple buffered file writers. - We can implement cancel through signals, for cancelling interruptible work like read/write (or send/recv) to/from sockets. - We need the above cancel for being able to assign and use file tables from a process. - We can implement a more thorough cancel operation in general. - We need it to move towards a syslet/threadlet model for even faster async execution. For that we need to take ownership of the used threads. This list is just off the top of my head. Performance should be the same, or better, at least that's what I've seen in my testing. io-wq supports basic NUMA functionality, setting up a pool per node. io-wq hooks up to the scheduler schedule in/out just like workqueue and uses that to drive the need for more/less workers.

sched/vtime: Record CPU under seqcount for kcpustat needs
In order to compute the kcpustat delta on a nohz CPU, we'll need to fetch the task running on that target. Checking that its vtime state snapshot actually refers to the relevant target involves recording that CPU under the seqcount locked on task switch. This is a step toward making kcpustat moving forward on full nohz CPUs.

arm64: entry.S: Do not preempt from IRQ before all cpufeatures are enabled
Preempting from IRQ-return means that the task has its PSTATE saved
on the stack, which will get restored when the task is resumed and does
the actual IRQ return.
However, enabling some CPU features requires modifying the PSTATE. This
means that, if a task was scheduled out during an IRQ-return before all
CPU features are enabled, the task might restore a PSTATE that does not
include the feature enablement changes once scheduled back in.
* Task 1:
PAN == 0 ---| |---------------
| |<- return from IRQ, PSTATE.PAN = 0
| <- IRQ |
+--------+ <- preempt() +--
^
|
reschedule Task 1, PSTATE.PAN == 1
* Init:
--------------------+------------------------
^
|
enable_cpu_features
set PSTATE.PAN on all CPUs
Worse than this, since PSTATE is untouched when task switching is done,
a task missing the new bits in PSTATE might affect another task, if both
do direct calls to schedule() (outside of IRQ/exception contexts).
Fix this by preventing preemption on IRQ-return until features are
enabled on all CPUs.
This way the only PSTATE values that are saved on the stack are from
synchronous exceptions. These are expected to be fatal this early, the
exception is BRK for WARN_ON(), but as this uses do_debug_exception()
which keeps IRQs masked, it shouldn't call schedule().

tasks: Add a count of task RCU users
Add a count of the number of RCU users (currently 1) of the task struct so that we can later add the scheduler case and get rid of the very subtle task_rcu_dereference(), and just use rcu_dereference().

hmm related patches for 5.4
This is more cleanup and consolidation of the hmm APIs and the very
strongly related mmu_notifier interfaces. Many places across the tree
using these interfaces are touched in the process. Beyond that a cleanup
to the page walker API and a few memremap related changes round out the
series:
- General improvement of hmm_range_fault() and related APIs, more
documentation, bug fixes from testing, API simplification &
consolidation, and unused API removal
- Simplify the hmm related kconfigs to HMM_MIRROR and DEVICE_PRIVATE, and
make them internal kconfig selects
- Hoist a lot of code related to mmu notifier attachment out of drivers by
using a refcount get/put attachment idiom and remove the convoluted
mmu_notifier_unregister_no_release() and related APIs.
- General API improvement for the migrate_vma API and revision of its only
user in nouveau
- Annotate mmu_notifiers with lockdep and sleeping region debugging
Two series unrelated to HMM or mmu_notifiers came along due to
dependencies:
- Allow pagemap's memremap_pages family of APIs to work without providing
a struct device
- Make walk_page_range() and related use a constant structure for function

"Timers and timekeeping updates:

An update to the bogus permission checks will come later during the
merge window as feedback was not complete before heading of for
travel.
- Switch the timerqueue code to use cached rbtrees and get rid of the
homebrewn caching of the leftmost node.
- Consolidate hrtimer_init() + hrtimer_init_sleeper() calls into a
single function
- Implement the separation of hrtimers to be forced to expire in hard
interrupt context even when PREEMPT_RT is enabled and mark the
affected timers accordingly.
- Implement a mechanism for hrtimers and the timer wheel to protect
RT against priority inversion and live lock issues when a (hr)timer
which should be canceled is currently executing the callback.
Instead of infinitely spinning, the task which tries to cancel the
timer blocks on a per cpu base expiry lock which is held and
released by the (hr)timer expiry code.
- Enable the Hyper-V TSC page based sched_clock for Hyper-V guests

kernel.h: Add non_block_start/end()
In some special cases we must not block, but there's not a spinlock, preempt-off, irqs-off or similar critical section already that arms the might_sleep() debug checks. Add a non_block_start/end() pair to annotate these. This will be used in the oom paths of mmu-notifiers, where blocking is not allowed to make sure there's forward progress. Quoting Michal: "The notifier is called from quite a restricted context - oom_reaper - which shouldn't depend on any locks or sleepable conditionals. The code should be swift as well but we mostly do care about it to make a forward progress. Checking for sleepable context is the best thing we could come up with that would describe these demands at least partially." Peter also asked whether we want to catch spinlocks on top, but Michal said those are less of a problem because spinlocks can't have an indirect dependency upon the page allocator and hence close the loop with the oom reaper.

Pull request_key improvements from David Howells:
"These are all request_key()-related, including a fix and some improvements:
- Fix the lack of a Link permission check on a key found by
request_key(), thereby enabling request_key() to link keys that
don't grant this permission to the target keyring (which must still
grant Write permission).
Note that the key must be in the caller's keyrings already to be
found.
- Invalidate used request_key authentication keys rather than
revoking them, so that they get cleaned up immediately rather than
hanging around till the expiry time is passed.
- Move the RCU locks outwards from the keyring search functions so
that a request_key_rcu() can be provided. This can be called in RCU
mode, so it can't sleep and can't upcall - but it can be called
from LOOKUP_RCU pathwalk mode.
- Cache the latest positive result of request_key*() temporarily in
task_struct so that filesystems that make a lot of request_key()
calls during pathwalk can take advantage of it to avoid having to
redo the searching. This requires CONFIG_KEYS_REQUEST_CACHE=y.
It is assumed that the key just found is likely to be used multiple
times in each step in an RCU pathwalk, and is likely to be reused
for the next step too.
Note that the cleanup of the cache is done on TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME,
just before userspace resumes, and on exit"

sched/uclamp: Extend sched_setattr() to support utilization clamping
The SCHED_DEADLINE scheduling class provides an advanced and formal model to define tasks requirements that can translate into proper decisions for both task placements and frequencies selections. Other classes have a more simplified model based on the POSIX concept of priorities. Such a simple priority based model however does not allow to exploit most advanced features of the Linux scheduler like, for example, driving frequencies selection via the schedutil cpufreq governor. However, also for non SCHED_DEADLINE tasks, it's still interesting to define tasks properties to support scheduler decisions. Utilization clamping exposes to user-space a new set of per-task attributes the scheduler can use as hints about the expected/required utilization for a task. This allows to implement a "proactive" per-task frequency control policy, a more advanced policy than the current one based just on "passive" measured task utilization. For example, it's possible to boost interactive tasks (e.g. to get better performance) or cap background tasks (e.g. to be more energy/thermal efficient). Introduce a new API to set utilization clamping values for a specified task by extending sched_setattr(), a syscall which already allows to define task specific properties for different scheduling classes. A new pair of attributes allows to specify a minimum and maximum utilization the scheduler can consider for a task. Do that by validating the required clamp values before and then applying the required changes using _the_ same pattern already in use for __setscheduler(). This ensures that the task is re-enqueued with the new clamp values.

sched/uclamp: Add system default clamps
Tasks without a user-defined clamp value are considered not clamped
and by default their utilization can have any value in the
[0..SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE] range.
Tasks with a user-defined clamp value are allowed to request any value
in that range, and the required clamp is unconditionally enforced.
However, a "System Management Software" could be interested in limiting
the range of clamp values allowed for all tasks.
Add a privileged interface to define a system default configuration via:
/proc/sys/kernel/sched_uclamp_util_{min,max}
which works as an unconditional clamp range restriction for all tasks.
With the default configuration, the full SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE range of
values is allowed for each clamp index. Otherwise, the task-specific
clamp is capped by the corresponding system default value.
Do that by tracking, for each task, the "effective" clamp value and
bucket the task has been refcounted in at enqueue time. This
allows to lazy aggregate "requested" and "system default" values at
enqueue time and simplifies refcounting updates at dequeue time.
The cached bucket ids are used to avoid (relatively) more expensive
integer divisions every time a task is enqueued.
An active flag is used to report when the "effective" value is valid and
thus the task is actually refcounted in the corresponding rq's bucket.

sched/uclamp: Add CPU's clamp buckets refcounting
Utilization clamping allows to clamp the CPU's utilization within a
[util_min, util_max] range, depending on the set of RUNNABLE tasks on
that CPU. Each task references two "clamp buckets" defining its minimum
and maximum (util_{min,max}) utilization "clamp values". A CPU's clamp
bucket is active if there is at least one RUNNABLE tasks enqueued on
that CPU and refcounting that bucket.
When a task is {en,de}queued {on,from} a rq, the set of active clamp
buckets on that CPU can change. If the set of active clamp buckets
changes for a CPU a new "aggregated" clamp value is computed for that
CPU. This is because each clamp bucket enforces a different utilization
clamp value.
Clamp values are always MAX aggregated for both util_min and util_max.
This ensures that no task can affect the performance of other
co-scheduled tasks which are more boosted (i.e. with higher util_min
clamp) or less capped (i.e. with higher util_max clamp).
A task has:
task_struct::uclamp[clamp_id]::bucket_id
to track the "bucket index" of the CPU's clamp bucket it refcounts while
enqueued, for each clamp index (clamp_id).
A runqueue has:
rq::uclamp[clamp_id]::bucket[bucket_id].tasks
to track how many RUNNABLE tasks on that CPU refcount each
clamp bucket (bucket_id) of a clamp index (clamp_id).
It also has a:
rq::uclamp[clamp_id]::bucket[bucket_id].value
to track the clamp value of each clamp bucket (bucket_id) of a clamp
index (clamp_id).
The rq::uclamp::bucket[clamp_id][] array is scanned every time it's
needed to find a new MAX aggregated clamp value for a clamp_id. This
operation is required only when it's dequeued the last task of a clamp
bucket tracking the current MAX aggregated clamp value. In this case,
the CPU is either entering IDLE or going to schedule a less boosted or
more clamped task.
The expected number of different clamp values configured at build time
is small enough to fit the full unordered array into a single cache
line, for configurations of up to 7 buckets.
Add to struct rq the basic data structures required to refcount the
number of RUNNABLE tasks for each clamp bucket. Add also the max
aggregation required to update the rq's clamp value at each
enqueue/dequeue event.
Use a simple linear mapping of clamp values into clamp buckets.
Pre-compute and cache bucket_id to avoid integer divisions at
enqueue/dequeue time.

keys: Cache result of request_key*() temporarily in task_struct
If a filesystem uses keys to hold authentication tokens, then it needs a
token for each VFS operation that might perform an authentication check -
either by passing it to the server, or using to perform a check based on
authentication data cached locally.
For open files this isn't a problem, since the key should be cached in the
file struct since it represents the subject performing operations on that
file descriptor.
During pathwalk, however, there isn't anywhere to cache the key, except
perhaps in the nameidata struct - but that isn't exposed to the
filesystems. Further, a pathwalk can incur a lot of operations, calling
one or more of the following, for instance:
->lookup()
->permission()
->d_revalidate()
->d_automount()
->get_acl()
->getxattr()
on each dentry/inode it encounters - and each one may need to call
request_key(). And then, at the end of pathwalk, it will call the actual
operation:
->mkdir()
->mknod()
->getattr()
->open()
...
which may need to go and get the token again.
However, it is very likely that all of the operations on a single
dentry/inode - and quite possibly a sequence of them - will all want to use
the same authentication token, which suggests that caching it would be a
good idea.
To this end:
(1) Make it so that a positive result of request_key() and co. that didn't
require upcalling to userspace is cached temporarily in task_struct.
(2) The cache is 1 deep, so a new result displaces the old one.
(3) The key is released by exit and by notify-resume.
(4) The cache is cleared in a newly forked process.

s390: improve wait logic of stop_machine
The stop_machine loop to advance the state machine and to wait for all affected CPUs to check-in calls cpu_relax_yield in a tight loop until the last missing CPUs acknowledged the state transition. On a virtual system where not all logical CPUs are backed by real CPUs all the time it can take a while for all CPUs to check-in. With the current definition of cpu_relax_yield a diagnose 0x44 is done which tells the hypervisor to schedule *some* other CPU. That can be any CPU and not necessarily one of the CPUs that need to run in order to advance the state machine. This can lead to a pretty bad diagnose 0x44 storm until the last missing CPU finally checked-in. Replace the undirected cpu_relax_yield based on diagnose 0x44 with a directed yield. Each CPU in the wait loop will pick up the next CPU in the cpumask of stop_machine. The diagnose 0x9c is used to tell the hypervisor to run this next CPU instead of the current one. If there is only a limited number of real CPUs backing the virtual CPUs we end up with the real CPUs passed around in a round-robin fashion.

rcu: Check for wakeup-safe conditions in rcu_read_unlock_special()
When RCU core processing is offloaded from RCU_SOFTIRQ to the rcuc kthreads, a full and unconditional wakeup is required to initiate RCU core processing. In contrast, when RCU core processing is carried out by RCU_SOFTIRQ, a raise_softirq() suffices. Of course, there are situations where raise_softirq() does a full wakeup, but these do not occur with normal usage of rcu_read_unlock(). The reason that full wakeups can be problematic is that the scheduler sometimes invokes rcu_read_unlock() with its pi or rq locks held, which can of course result in deadlock in CONFIG_PREEMPT=y kernels when rcu_read_unlock() invokes the scheduler. Scheduler invocations can happen in the following situations: (1) The just-ended reader has been subjected to RCU priority boosting, in which case rcu_read_unlock() must deboost, (2) Interrupts were disabled across the call to rcu_read_unlock(), so the quiescent state must be deferred, requiring a wakeup of the rcuc kthread corresponding to the current CPU. Now, the scheduler may hold one of its locks across rcu_read_unlock() only if preemption has been disabled across the entire RCU read-side critical section, which in the days prior to RCU flavor consolidation meant that rcu_read_unlock() never needed to do wakeups. However, this is no longer the case for any but the first rcu_read_unlock() following a condition (e.g., preempted RCU reader) requiring special rcu_read_unlock() attention. For example, an RCU read-side critical section might be preempted, but preemption might be disabled across the rcu_read_unlock(). The rcu_read_unlock() must defer the quiescent state, and therefore leaves the task queued on its leaf rcu_node structure. If a scheduler interrupt occurs, the scheduler might well invoke rcu_read_unlock() with one of its locks held. However, the preempted task is still queued, so rcu_read_unlock() will attempt to defer the quiescent state once more. When RCU core processing is carried out by RCU_SOFTIRQ, this works just fine: The raise_softirq() function simply sets a bit in a per-CPU mask and the RCU core processing will be undertaken upon return from interrupt. Not so when RCU core processing is carried out by the rcuc kthread: In this case, the required wakeup can result in deadlock. The initial solution to this problem was to use set_tsk_need_resched() and set_preempt_need_resched() to force a future context switch, which allows rcu_preempt_note_context_switch() to report the deferred quiescent state to RCU's core processing. Unfortunately for expedited grace periods, there can be a significant delay between the call for a context switch and the actual context switch. This commit therefore introduces a ->deferred_qs flag to the task_struct structure's rcu_special structure. This flag is initially false, and is set to true by the first call to rcu_read_unlock() requiring special attention, then finally reset back to false when the quiescent state is finally reported. Then rcu_read_unlock() attempts full wakeups only when ->deferred_qs is false, that is, on the first rcu_read_unlock() requiring special attention. Note that a chain of RCU readers linked by some other sort of reader may find that a later rcu_read_unlock() is once again able to do a full wakeup, courtesy of an intervening preemption: rcu_read_lock(); /* preempted */ local_irq_disable(); rcu_read_unlock(); /* Can do full wakeup, sets ->deferred_qs. */ rcu_read_lock(); local_irq_enable(); preempt_disable() rcu_read_unlock(); /* Cannot do full wakeup, ->deferred_qs set. */ rcu_read_lock(); preempt_enable(); /* preempted, >deferred_qs reset. */ local_irq_disable(); rcu_read_unlock(); /* Can again do full wakeup, sets ->deferred_qs. */ Such linked RCU readers do not yet seem to appear in the Linux kernel, and it is probably best if they don't. However, RCU needs to handle them, and some variations on this theme could make even raise_softirq() unsafe due to the possibility of its doing a full wakeup. This commit therefore also avoids invoking raise_softirq() when the ->deferred_qs set flag is set. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

cgroup: cgroup v2 freezer
Cgroup v1 implements the freezer controller, which provides an ability
to stop the workload in a cgroup and temporarily free up some
resources (cpu, io, network bandwidth and, potentially, memory)
for some other tasks. Cgroup v2 lacks this functionality.
This patch implements freezer for cgroup v2.
Cgroup v2 freezer tries to put tasks into a state similar to jobctl
stop. This means that tasks can be killed, ptraced (using
PTRACE_SEIZE*), and interrupted. It is possible to attach to
a frozen task, get some information (e.g. read registers) and detach.
It's also possible to migrate a frozen tasks to another cgroup.
This differs cgroup v2 freezer from cgroup v1 freezer, which mostly
tried to imitate the system-wide freezer. However uninterruptible
sleep is fine when all tasks are going to be frozen (hibernation case),
it's not the acceptable state for some subset of the system.
Cgroup v2 freezer is not supporting freezing kthreads.
If a non-root cgroup contains kthread, the cgroup still can be frozen,
but the kthread will remain running, the cgroup will be shown
as non-frozen, and the notification will not be delivered.
* PTRACE_ATTACH is not working because non-fatal signal delivery
is blocked in frozen state.
There are some interface differences between cgroup v1 and cgroup v2
freezer too, which are required to conform the cgroup v2 interface
design principles:
1) There is no separate controller, which has to be turned on:
the functionality is always available and is represented by
cgroup.freeze and cgroup.events cgroup control files.
2) The desired state is defined by the cgroup.freeze control file.
Any hierarchical configuration is allowed.
3) The interface is asynchronous. The actual state is available
using cgroup.events control file ("frozen" field). There are no
dedicated transitional states.
4) It's allowed to make any changes with the cgroup hierarchy
(create new cgroups, remove old cgroups, move tasks between cgroups)
no matter if some cgroups are frozen.

rseq: Remove superfluous rseq_len from task_struct
The rseq system call, when invoked with flags of "0" or "RSEQ_FLAG_UNREGISTER" values, expects the rseq_len parameter to be equal to sizeof(struct rseq), which is fixed-size and fixed-layout, specified in uapi linux/rseq.h. Expecting a fixed size for rseq_len is a design choice that ensures multiple libraries and application defining __rseq_abi in the same process agree on its exact size. Considering that this size is and will always be the same value, there is no point in saving this value within task_struct rseq_len. Remove this field from task_struct.

mm/cma: add PF flag to force non cma alloc
Patch series "mm/kvm/vfio/ppc64: Migrate compound pages out of CMA region", v8. ppc64 uses the CMA area for the allocation of guest page table (hash page table). We won't be able to start guest if we fail to allocate hash page table. We have observed hash table allocation failure because we failed to migrate pages out of CMA region because they were pinned. This happen when we are using VFIO. VFIO on ppc64 pins the entire guest RAM. If the guest RAM pages get allocated out of CMA region, we won't be able to migrate those pages. The pages are also pinned for the lifetime of the guest. Currently we support migration of non-compound pages. With THP and with the addition of hugetlb migration we can end up allocating compound pages from CMA region. This patch series add support for migrating compound pages. This patch (of 4): Add PF_MEMALLOC_NOCMA which make sure any allocation in that context is marked non-movable and hence cannot be satisfied by CMA region. This is useful with get_user_pages_longterm where we want to take a page pin by migrating pages from CMA region. Marking the section PF_MEMALLOC_NOCMA ensures that we avoid unnecessary page migration later.

mm, compaction: capture a page under direct compaction
Compaction is inherently race-prone as a suitable page freed during
compaction can be allocated by any parallel task. This patch uses a
capture_control structure to isolate a page immediately when it is freed
by a direct compactor in the slow path of the page allocator. The
intent is to avoid redundant scanning.

Latency is only moderately affected but the devil is in the details. A
closer examination indicates that base page fault latency is reduced but
latency of huge pages is increased as it takes creater care to succeed.
Part of the "problem" is that allocation success rates are close to 100%
even when under pressure and compaction gets harder

This remedies a situation where a Java-launcher has speculation

sched/fair: Update scale invariance of PELT
The current implementation of load tracking invariance scales the
contribution with current frequency and uarch performance (only for
utilization) of the CPU. One main result of this formula is that the
figures are capped by current capacity of CPU. Another one is that the
load_avg is not invariant because not scaled with uarch.
The util_avg of a periodic task that runs r time slots every p time slots
varies in the range :
U * (1-y^r)/(1-y^p) * y^i < Utilization < U * (1-y^r)/(1-y^p)
with U is the max util_avg value = SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE
At a lower capacity, the range becomes:
U * C * (1-y^r')/(1-y^p) * y^i' < Utilization < U * C * (1-y^r')/(1-y^p)
with C reflecting the compute capacity ratio between current capacity and
max capacity.
so C tries to compensate changes in (1-y^r') but it can't be accurate.
Instead of scaling the contribution value of PELT algo, we should scale the
running time. The PELT signal aims to track the amount of computation of
tasks and/or rq so it seems more correct to scale the running time to
reflect the effective amount of computation done since the last update.
In order to be fully invariant, we need to apply the same amount of
running time and idle time whatever the current capacity. Because running
at lower capacity implies that the task will run longer, we have to ensure
that the same amount of idle time will be applied when system becomes idle
and no idle time has been "stolen". But reaching the maximum utilization
value (SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE) means that the task is seen as an
always-running task whatever the capacity of the CPU (even at max compute
capacity). In this case, we can discard this "stolen" idle times which
becomes meaningless.
In order to achieve this time scaling, a new clock_pelt is created per rq.
The increase of this clock scales with current capacity when something
is running on rq and synchronizes with clock_task when rq is idle. With
this mechanism, we ensure the same running and idle time whatever the
current capacity. This also enables to simplify the pelt algorithm by
removing all references of uarch and frequency and applying the same
contribution to utilization and loads. Furthermore, the scaling is done
only once per update of clock (update_rq_clock_task()) instead of during
each update of sched_entities and cfs/rt/dl_rq of the rq like the current
implementation. This is interesting when cgroup are involved as shown in
the results below:
On a hikey (octo Arm64 platform).
Performance cpufreq governor and only shallowest c-state to remove variance
generated by those power features so we only track the impact of pelt algo.
each test runs 16 times:

level2 5.063(+/- 9.83%) 4.928(+/- 9.66%) -2.66%
Then, the responsiveness of PELT is improved when CPU is not running at max
capacity with this new algorithm. I have put below some examples of
duration to reach some typical load values according to the capacity of the
CPU with current implementation and with this patch. These values has been
computed based on the geometric series and the half period value:
Util (%) max capacity half capacity(mainline) half capacity(w/ patch)
972 (95%) 138ms not reachable 276ms
486 (47.5%) 30ms 138ms 60ms
256 (25%) 13ms 32ms 26ms
On my hikey (octo Arm64 platform) with schedutil governor, the time to
reach max OPP when starting from a null utilization, decreases from 223ms
with current scale invariance down to 121ms with the new algorithm.

sched/core: Convert task_struct.stack_refcount to refcount_t
atomic_t variables are currently used to implement reference counters with the following properties: - counter is initialized to 1 using atomic_set() - a resource is freed upon counter reaching zero - once counter reaches zero, its further increments aren't allowed - counter schema uses basic atomic operations (set, inc, inc_not_zero, dec_and_test, etc.) Such atomic variables should be converted to a newly provided refcount_t type and API that prevents accidental counter overflows and underflows. This is important since overflows and underflows can lead to use-after-free situation and be exploitable. The variable task_struct.stack_refcount is used as pure reference counter. Convert it to refcount_t and fix up the operations. ** Important note for maintainers: Some functions from refcount_t API defined in lib/refcount.c have different memory ordering guarantees than their atomic counterparts. The full comparison can be seen in https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/11/15/57 and it is hopefully soon in state to be merged to the documentation tree. Normally the differences should not matter since refcount_t provides enough guarantees to satisfy the refcounting use cases, but in some rare cases it might matter. Please double check that you don't have some undocumented memory guarantees for this variable usage. For the task_struct.stack_refcount it might make a difference in following places: - try_get_task_stack(): increment in refcount_inc_not_zero() only guarantees control dependency on success vs. fully ordered atomic counterpart - put_task_stack(): decrement in refcount_dec_and_test() only provides RELEASE ordering and control dependency on success vs. fully ordered atomic counterpart Suggested-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Signed-off-by: Elena Reshetova <elena.reshetova@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Reviewed-by: David Windsor <dwindsor@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Hans Liljestrand <ishkamiel@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Andrea Parri <andrea.parri@amarulasolutions.com> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: akpm@linux-foundation.org Cc: viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/1547814450-18902-6-git-send-email-elena.reshetova@intel.com Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> |

audit: remove audit_context when CONFIG_ AUDIT and not AUDITSYSCALL
Remove audit_context from struct task_struct and struct audit_buffer when CONFIG_AUDIT is enabled but CONFIG_AUDITSYSCALL is not. Also, audit_log_name() (and supporting inode and fcaps functions) should have been put back in auditsc.c when soft and hard link logging was normalized since it is only used by syscall auditing.

x86/speculation: Add PR_SPEC_DISABLE_NOEXEC
With the default SPEC_STORE_BYPASS_SECCOMP/SPEC_STORE_BYPASS_PRCTL mode, the TIF_SSBD bit will be inherited when a new task is fork'ed or cloned. It will also remain when a new program is execve'ed. Only certain class of applications (like Java) that can run on behalf of multiple users on a single thread will require disabling speculative store bypass for security purposes. Those applications will call prctl(2) at startup time to disable SSB. They won't rely on the fact the SSB might have been disabled. Other applications that don't need SSBD will just move on without checking if SSBD has been turned on or not. The fact that the TIF_SSBD is inherited across execve(2) boundary will cause performance of applications that don't need SSBD but their predecessors have SSBD on to be unwittingly impacted especially if they write to memory a lot. To remedy this problem, a new PR_SPEC_DISABLE_NOEXEC argument for the PR_SET_SPECULATION_CTRL option of prctl(2) is added to allow applications to specify that the SSBD feature bit on the task structure should be cleared whenever a new program is being execve'ed.

umh: add exit routine for UMH process
A UMH process which is created by the fork_usermode_blob() such as bpfilter needs to release members of the umh_info when process is terminated. But the do_exit() does not release members of the umh_info. hence module which uses UMH needs own code to detect whether UMH process is terminated or not. But this implementation needs extra code for checking the status of UMH process. it eventually makes the code more complex. The new PF_UMH flag is added and it is used to identify UMH processes. The exit_umh() does not release members of the umh_info. Hence umh_info->cleanup callback should release both members of the umh_info and the private data. Suggested-by: David S.

- Disable STIBP automatically when SMT is disabled
- Optimize the switch_to() logic to avoid MSR writes and invocations
of __switch_to_xtra().

rcu: Speed up expedited GPs when interrupting RCU reader
In PREEMPT kernels, an expedited grace period might send an IPI to a CPU that is executing an RCU read-side critical section. In that case, it would be nice if the rcu_read_unlock() directly interacted with the RCU core code to immediately report the quiescent state. And this does happen in the case where the reader has been preempted. But it would also be a nice performance optimization if immediate reporting also happened in the preemption-free case. This commit therefore adds an ->exp_hint field to the task_struct structure's ->rcu_read_unlock_special field. The IPI handler sets this hint when it has interrupted an RCU read-side critical section, and this causes the outermost rcu_read_unlock() call to invoke rcu_read_unlock_special(), which, if preemption is enabled, reports the quiescent state immediately. If preemption is disabled, then the report is required to be deferred until preemption (or bottom halves or interrupts or whatever) is re-enabled. Because this is a hint, it does nothing for more complicated cases. For example, if the IPI interrupts an RCU reader, but interrupts are disabled across the rcu_read_unlock(), but another rcu_read_lock() is executed before interrupts are re-enabled, the hint will already have been cleared. If you do crazy things like this, reporting will be deferred until some later RCU_SOFTIRQ handler, context switch, cond_resched(), or similar.

Pull stackleak gcc plugin from Kees Cook:
"Please pull this new GCC plugin, stackleak, for v4.20-rc1. This plugin
was ported from grsecurity by Alexander Popov. It provides efficient
stack content poisoning at syscall exit. This creates a defense
against at least two classes of flaws:
- Uninitialized stack usage. (We continue to work on improving the
compiler to do this in other ways: e.g. unconditional zero init was
proposed to GCC and Clang, and more plugin work has started too).
- Stack content exposure. By greatly reducing the lifetime of valid
stack contents, exposures via either direct read bugs or unknown
cache side-channels become much more difficult to exploit. This
complements the existing buddy and heap poisoning options, but
provides the coverage for stacks.
The x86 hooks are included in this series (which have been reviewed by
Ingo, Dave Hansen, and Thomas Gleixner). The arm64 hooks have already
been merged through the arm64 tree (written by Laura Abbott and
reviewed by Mark Rutland and Will Deacon).
With VLAs having been removed this release, there is no need for
alloca() protection, so it has been removed from the plugin"

psi: pressure stall information for CPU, memory, and IO
When systems are overcommitted and resources become contended, it's hard
to tell exactly the impact this has on workload productivity, or how close
the system is to lockups and OOM kills. In particular, when machines work
multiple jobs concurrently, the impact of overcommit in terms of latency
and throughput on the individual job can be enormous.
In order to maximize hardware utilization without sacrificing individual
job health or risk complete machine lockups, this patch implements a way
to quantify resource pressure in the system.
A kernel built with CONFIG_PSI=y creates files in /proc/pressure/ that
expose the percentage of time the system is stalled on CPU, memory, or IO,
respectively. Stall states are aggregate versions of the per-task delay
accounting delays:
cpu: some tasks are runnable but not executing on a CPU
memory: tasks are reclaiming, or waiting for swapin or thrashing cache
io: tasks are waiting for io completions
These percentages of walltime can be thought of as pressure percentages,
and they give a general sense of system health and productivity loss
incurred by resource overcommit. They can also indicate when the system
is approaching lockup scenarios and OOMs.
To do this, psi keeps track of the task states associated with each CPU
and samples the time they spend in stall states. Every 2 seconds, the
samples are averaged across CPUs - weighted by the CPUs' non-idle time to
eliminate artifacts from unused CPUs - and translated into percentages of
walltime. A running average of those percentages is maintained over 10s,
1m, and 5m periods (similar to the loadaverage).

Pull siginfo updates from Eric Biederman: "I have been slowly sorting out siginfo and this is the culmination of that work. The primary result is in several ways the signal infrastructure has been made less error prone. The code has been updated so that manually specifying SEND_SIG_FORCED is never necessary. The conversion to the new siginfo sending functions is now complete, which makes it difficult to send a signal without filling in the proper siginfo fields. At the tail end of the patchset comes the optimization of decreasing the size of struct siginfo in the kernel from 128 bytes to about 48 bytes on 64bit. The fundamental observation that enables this is by definition none of the known ways to use struct siginfo uses the extra bytes. This comes at the cost of a small user space observable difference. For the rare case of siginfo being injected into the kernel only what can be copied into kernel_siginfo is delivered to the destination, the rest of the bytes are set to 0. For cases where the signal and the si_code are known this is safe, because we know those bytes are not used. For cases where the signal and si_code combination is unknown the bits that won't fit into struct kernel_siginfo are tested to verify they are zero, and the send fails if they are not. I made an extensive search through userspace code and I could not find anything that would break because of the above change. If it turns out I did break something it will take just the revert of a single change to restore kernel_siginfo to the same size as userspace siginfo. Testing did reveal dependencies on preferring the signo passed to sigqueueinfo over si->signo, so bit the bullet and added the complexity necessary to handle that case. Testing also revealed bad things can happen if a negative signal number is passed into the system calls. Something no sane application will do but something a malicious program or a fuzzer might do. So I have fixed the code that performs the bounds checks to ensure negative signal numbers are handled" * 'siginfo-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace: (80 commits) signal: Guard against negative signal numbers in copy_siginfo_from_user32 signal: Guard against negative signal numbers in copy_siginfo_from_user signal: In sigqueueinfo prefer sig not si_signo signal: Use a smaller struct siginfo in the kernel signal: Distinguish between kernel_siginfo and siginfo signal: Introduce copy_siginfo_from_user and use it's return value signal: Remove the need for __ARCH_SI_PREABLE_SIZE and SI_PAD_SIZE signal: Fail sigqueueinfo if si_signo != sig signal/sparc: Move EMT_TAGOVF into the generic siginfo.h signal/unicore32: Use force_sig_fault where appropriate signal/unicore32: Generate siginfo in ucs32_notify_die signal/unicore32: Use send_sig_fault where appropriate signal/arc: Use force_sig_fault where appropriate signal/arc: Push siginfo generation into unhandled_exception signal/ia64: Use force_sig_fault where appropriate signal/ia64: Use the force_sig(SIGSEGV,...) in ia64_rt_sigreturn signal/ia64: Use the generic force_sigsegv in setup_frame signal/arm/kvm: Use send_sig_mceerr signal/arm: Use send_sig_fault where appropriate signal/arm: Use force_sig_fault where appropriate ... |

signal: Distinguish between kernel_siginfo and siginfo
Linus recently observed that if we did not worry about the padding member in struct siginfo it is only about 48 bytes, and 48 bytes is much nicer than 128 bytes for allocating on the stack and copying around in the kernel. The obvious thing of only adding the padding when userspace is including siginfo.h won't work as there are sigframe definitions in the kernel that embed struct siginfo. So split siginfo in two; kernel_siginfo and siginfo. Keeping the traditional name for the userspace definition. While the version that is used internally to the kernel and ultimately will not be padded to 128 bytes is called kernel_siginfo. The definition of struct kernel_siginfo I have put in include/signal_types.h A set of buildtime checks has been added to verify the two structures have the same field offsets. To make it easy to verify the change kernel_siginfo retains the same size as siginfo. The reduction in size comes in a following change. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com> |

x86/entry: Add STACKLEAK erasing the kernel stack at the end of syscalls
The STACKLEAK feature (initially developed by PaX Team) has the following benefits: 1. Reduces the information that can be revealed through kernel stack leak bugs. The idea of erasing the thread stack at the end of syscalls is similar to CONFIG_PAGE_POISONING and memzero_explicit() in kernel crypto, which all comply with FDP_RIP.2 (Full Residual Information Protection) of the Common Criteria standard. 2. Blocks some uninitialized stack variable attacks (e.g. CVE-2017-17712, CVE-2010-2963). That kind of bugs should be killed by improving C compilers in future, which might take a long time. This commit introduces the code filling the used part of the kernel stack with a poison value before returning to userspace. Full STACKLEAK feature also contains the gcc plugin which comes in a separate commit. The STACKLEAK feature is ported from grsecurity/PaX. More information at: https://grsecurity.net/ https://pax.grsecurity.net/ This code is modified from Brad Spengler/PaX Team's code in the last public patch of grsecurity/PaX based on our understanding of the code. Changes or omissions from the original code are ours and don't reflect the original grsecurity/PaX code.

kernel/hung_task.c: allow to set checking interval separately from timeout
Currently task hung checking interval is equal to timeout, as the result hung is detected anywhere between timeout and 2*timeout. This is fine for most interactive environments, but this hurts automated testing setups (syzbot). In an automated setup we need to strictly order CPU lockup < RCU stall < workqueue lockup < task hung < silent loss, so that RCU stall is not detected as task hung and task hung is not detected as silent machine loss. The large variance in task hung detection timeout requires setting silent machine loss timeout to a very large value (e.g. if task hung is 3 mins, then silent loss need to be set to ~7 mins). The additional 3 minutes significantly reduce testing efficiency because usually we crash kernel within a minute, and this can add hours to bug localization process as it needs to do dozens of tests. Allow setting checking interval separately from timeout. This allows to set timeout to, say, 3 minutes, but checking interval to 10 secs. The interval is controlled via a new hung_task_check_interval_secs sysctl, similar to the existing hung_task_timeout_secs sysctl. The default value of 0 results in the current behavior: checking interval is equal to timeout.

fs: fsnotify: account fsnotify metadata to kmemcg
Patch series "Directed kmem charging", v8. The Linux kernel's memory cgroup allows limiting the memory usage of the jobs running on the system to provide isolation between the jobs. All the kernel memory allocated in the context of the job and marked with __GFP_ACCOUNT will also be included in the memory usage and be limited by the job's limit. The kernel memory can only be charged to the memcg of the process in whose context kernel memory was allocated. However there are cases where the allocated kernel memory should be charged to the memcg different from the current processes's memcg. This patch series contains two such concrete use-cases i.e. fsnotify and buffer_head. The fsnotify event objects can consume a lot of system memory for large or unlimited queues if there is either no or slow listener. The events are allocated in the context of the event producer. However they should be charged to the event consumer. Similarly the buffer_head objects can be allocated in a memcg different from the memcg of the page for which buffer_head objects are being allocated. To solve this issue, this patch series introduces mechanism to charge kernel memory to a given memcg. In case of fsnotify events, the memcg of the consumer can be used for charging and for buffer_head, the memcg of the page can be charged. For directed charging, the caller can use the scope API memalloc_[un]use_memcg() to specify the memcg to charge for all the __GFP_ACCOUNT allocations within the scope. This patch (of 2): A lot of memory can be consumed by the events generated for the huge or unlimited queues if there is either no or slow listener. This can cause system level memory pressure or OOMs. So, it's better to account the fsnotify kmem caches to the memcg of the listener. However the listener can be in a different memcg than the memcg of the producer and these allocations happen in the context of the event producer. This patch introduces remote memcg charging API which the producer can use to charge the allocations to the memcg of the listener. There are seven fsnotify kmem caches and among them allocations from dnotify_struct_cache, dnotify_mark_cache, fanotify_mark_cache and inotify_inode_mark_cachep happens in the context of syscall from the listener. So, SLAB_ACCOUNT is enough for these caches. The objects from fsnotify_mark_connector_cachep are not accounted as they are small compared to the notification mark or events and it is unclear whom to account connector to since it is shared by all events attached to the inode. The allocations from the event caches happen in the context of the event producer. For such caches we will need to remote charge the allocations to the listener's memcg. Thus we save the memcg reference in the fsnotify_group structure of the listener. This patch has also moved the members of fsnotify_group to keep the size same, at least for 64 bit build, even with additional member by filling the holes.

pid: Implement PIDTYPE_TGID
Everywhere except in the pid array we distinguish between a tasks pid and a tasks tgid (thread group id). Even in the enumeration we want that distinction sometimes so we have added __PIDTYPE_TGID. With leader_pid we almost have an implementation of PIDTYPE_TGID in struct signal_struct. Add PIDTYPE_TGID as a first class member of the pid_type enumeration and into the pids array. Then remove the __PIDTYPE_TGID special case and the leader_pid in signal_struct. The net size increase is just an extra pointer added to struct pid and an extra pair of pointers of an hlist_node added to task_struct. The effect on code maintenance is the removal of a number of special cases today and the potential to remove many more special cases as PIDTYPE_TGID gets used to it's fullest. The long term potential is allowing zombie thread group leaders to exit, which will remove a lot more special cases in the code. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com> |

pids: Move the pgrp and session pid pointers from task_struct to signal_struct
To access these fields the code always has to go to group leader so going to signal struct is no loss and is actually a fundamental simplification. This saves a little bit of memory by only allocating the pid pointer array once instead of once for every thread, and even better this removes a few potential races caused by the fact that group_leader can be changed by de_thread, while signal_struct can not.
