49cb2fc42c fork: extend clone3() to support setting a PID
The main motivation to add set_tid to clone3() is CRIU.

To restore a process with the same PID/TID CRIU currently uses
/proc/sys/kernel/ns_last_pid. It writes the desired (PID - 1) to
ns_last_pid and then (quickly) does a clone(). This works most of the
time, but it is racy. It is also slow as it requires multiple syscalls.

Extending clone3() to support *set_tid makes it possible restore a
process using CRIU without accessing /proc/sys/kernel/ns_last_pid and
race free (as long as the desired PID/TID is available).

This clone3() extension places the same restrictions (CAP_SYS_ADMIN)
on clone3() with *set_tid as they are currently in place for ns_last_pid.

The original version of this change was using a single value for
set_tid. At the 2019 LPC, after presenting set_tid, it was, however,
decided to change set_tid to an array to enable setting the PID of a
process in multiple PID namespaces at the same time. If a process is
created in a PID namespace it is possible to influence the PID inside
and outside of the PID namespace. Details also in the corresponding
selftest.

To create a process with the following PIDs:

      PID NS level         Requested PID
        0 (host)              31496
        1                        42
        2                         1

For that example the two newly introduced parameters to struct
clone_args (set_tid and set_tid_size) would need to be:

  set_tid[0] = 1;
  set_tid[1] = 42;
  set_tid[2] = 31496;
  set_tid_size = 3;

If only the PIDs of the two innermost nested PID namespaces should be
defined it would look like this:

  set_tid[0] = 1;
  set_tid[1] = 42;
  set_tid_size = 2;

The PID of the newly created process would then be the next available
free PID in the PID namespace level 0 (host) and 42 in the PID namespace
at level 1 and the PID of the process in the innermost PID namespace
would be 1.

The set_tid array is used to specify the PID of a process starting
from the innermost nested PID namespaces up to set_tid_size PID namespaces.

set_tid_size cannot be larger then the current PID namespace level.

154abafc68 tasks, sched/core: With a grace period after finish_task_switch(), remove unnecessary code
Remove work arounds that were written before there was a grace period
after tasks left the runqueue in finish_task_switch().

In particular now that there tasks exiting the runqueue exprience
a RCU grace period none of the work performed by task_rcu_dereference()
excpet the rcu_dereference() is necessary so replace task_rcu_dereference()
with rcu_dereference().

Remove the code in rcuwait_wait_event() that checks to ensure the current
task has not exited.  It is no longer necessary as it is guaranteed
that any running task will experience a RCU grace period after it
leaves the run queueue.

Remove the comment in rcuwait_wake_up() as it is no longer relevant.

3fbd7ee285 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().

As suggested by Oleg have the count overlap rcu_head so that no
additional space in task_struct is required.

clone: fix CLONE_PIDFD support
The introduction of clone3 syscall accidentally broke CLONE_PIDFD
support in traditional clone syscall on compat x86 and those
architectures that use do_fork to implement clone syscall.

This bug was found by strace test suite.

fork: add clone3
This adds the clone3 system call.

As mentioned several times already (cf. [7], [8]) here's the promised
patchset for clone3().

We recently merged the CLONE_PIDFD patchset (cf. [1]). It took the last
free flag from clone().

Independent of the CLONE_PIDFD patchset a time namespace has been discussed
at Linux Plumber Conference last year and has been sent out and reviewed
(cf. [5]). It is expected that it will go upstream in the not too distant
future. However, it relies on the addition of the CLONE_NEWTIME flag to
clone(). The only other good candidate - CLONE_DETACHED - is currently not
recyclable as we have identified at least two large or widely used
codebases that currently pass this flag (cf. [2], [3], and [4]). Given that
CLONE_PIDFD grabbed the last clone() flag the time namespace is effectively
blocked. clone3() has the advantage that it will unblock this patchset
again. In general, clone3() is extensible and allows for the implementation
of new features.

The idea is to keep clone3() very simple and close to the original clone(),
specifically, to keep on supporting old clone()-based workloads.
We know there have been various creative proposals how a new process
creation syscall or even api is supposed to look like. Some people even
going so far as to argue that the traditional fork()+exec() split should be
abandoned in favor of an in-kernel version of spawn(). Independent of
whether or not we personally think spawn() is a good idea this patchset has
and does not want to have anything to do with this.
One stance we take is that there's no real good alternative to
clone()+exec() and we need and want to support this model going forward;
independent of spawn().
The following requirements guided clone3():
- bump the number of available flags
- move arguments that are currently passed as separate arguments
  in clone() into a dedicated struct clone_args
  - choose a struct layout that is easy to handle on 32 and on 64 bit
  - choose a struct layout that is extensible
  - give new flags that currently need to abuse another flag's dedicated
    return argument in clone() their own dedicated return argument
    (e.g. CLONE_PIDFD)
  - use a separate kernel internal struct kernel_clone_args that is
    properly typed according to current kernel conventions in fork.c and is
    different from  the uapi struct clone_args
- port _do_fork() to use kernel_clone_args so that all process creation
  syscalls such as fork(), vfork(), clone(), and clone3() behave identical
  (Arnd suggested, that we can probably also port do_fork() itself in a
   separate patchset.)
- ease of transition for userspace from clone() to clone3()
  This very much means that we do *not* remove functionality that userspace
  currently relies on as the latter is a good way of creating a syscall
  that won't be adopted.
- do not try to be clever or complex: keep clone3() as dumb as possible

In accordance with Linus suggestions (cf. [11]), clone3() has the following
signature:

/* uapi */
struct clone_args {
        __aligned_u64 flags;
        __aligned_u64 pidfd;
        __aligned_u64 child_tid;
        __aligned_u64 parent_tid;
        __aligned_u64 exit_signal;
        __aligned_u64 stack;
        __aligned_u64 stack_size;
        __aligned_u64 tls;
};

/* kernel internal */
struct kernel_clone_args {
        u64 flags;
        int __user *pidfd;
        int __user *child_tid;
        int __user *parent_tid;
        int exit_signal;
        unsigned long stack;
        unsigned long stack_size;
        unsigned long tls;
};

long sys_clone3(struct clone_args __user *uargs, size_t size)

clone3() cleanly supports all of the supported flags from clone() and thus
all legacy workloads.
The advantage of sticking close to the old clone() is the low cost for
userspace to switch to this new api. Quite a lot of userspace apis (e.g.
pthreads) are based on the clone() syscall. With the new clone3() syscall
supporting all of the old workloads and opening up the ability to add new
features should make switching to it for userspace more appealing. In
essence, glibc can just write a simple wrapper to switch from clone() to
clone3().

There has been some interest in this patchset already. We have received a
patch from the CRIU corner for clone3() that would set the PID/TID of a
restored process without /proc/sys/kernel/ns_last_pid to eliminate a race.

/* User visible differences to legacy clone() */
- CLONE_DETACHED will cause EINVAL with clone3()
- CSIGNAL is deprecated
  It is superseeded by a dedicated "exit_signal" argument in struct
  clone_args freeing up space for additional flags.
  This is based on a suggestion from Andrei and Linus (cf. [9] and [10])

ec1d281923 sched/core: Convert task_struct.usage 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.usage 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.usage it might make a difference
in following places:

 - put_task_struct(): decrement in refcount_dec_and_test() only
   provides RELEASE ordering and control dependency on success
   vs. fully ordered atomic counterpart

5905429ad8 fork: Provide usercopy whitelisting for task_struct
While the blocked and saved_sigmask fields of task_struct are copied to
userspace (via sigmask_to_save() and setup_rt_frame()), it is always
copied with a static length (i.e. sizeof(sigset_t)).

The only portion of task_struct that is potentially dynamically sized and
may be copied to userspace is in the architecture-specific thread_struct
at the end of task_struct.

cache object allocation:
    kernel/fork.c:
        alloc_task_struct_node(...):

            dup_task_struct(...)

        _do_fork(...):

b24413180f License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
 - file had no licensing information it it.
 - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
 - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
 - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
 - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
   lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

 - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
   considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
   COPYING file license applied.

   For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0                                              11139

   and resulted in the first patch in this series.

   If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
   Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930

   and resulted in the second patch in this series.

 - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
   of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
   any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
   it (per prior point).  Results summary:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
   GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
   LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
   GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14

   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1

   and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

 - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
   the concluded license(s).

 - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
   license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
   licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

 - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
   resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
   which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

 - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
   confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

 - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
   the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
   in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
 - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
   license ids and scores
 - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
   files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
 - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
   was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
   SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

18f08dae19 sched/core: Remove unnecessary initialization init_idle_bootup_task()
init_idle_bootup_task( ) is called in rest_init( ) to switch
the scheduling class of the boot thread to the idle class.

the function only sets:

    idle->sched_class = &idle_sched_class;

which has been set in init_idle() called by sched_init():

    /*
     * The idle tasks have their own, simple scheduling class:
     */
    idle->sched_class = &idle_sched_class;

We've already set the boot thread to idle class in
start_kernel()->sched_init()->init_idle()
so it's unnecessary to set it again in
start_kernel()->rest_init()->init_idle_bootup_task()

This function was introduced by:

... to allow easier usage of task_rcu_dereference(), however no users
were ever added. Drop the helper.
