7787b6fc93 bpf, sysctl: Let bpf_stats_handler take a kernel pointer buffer
Commit 32927393dc ("sysctl: pass kernel pointers to ->proc_handler")
changed ctl_table.proc_handler to take a kernel pointer. Adjust the
signature of bpf_stats_handler to match ctl_table.proc_handler which
fixes the following sparse warning:

kernel/sysctl.c:226:49: warning: incorrect type in argument 3 (different address spaces)
kernel/sysctl.c:226:49:    expected void *

d34c0a7599 mm: use unsigned types for fragmentation score
Proactive compaction uses per-node/zone "fragmentation score" which is
always in range [0, 100], so use unsigned type of these scores as well as
for related constants.

facdaa917c mm: proactive compaction
For some applications, we need to allocate almost all memory as hugepages.
However, on a running system, higher-order allocations can fail if the
memory is fragmented.  Linux kernel currently does on-demand compaction as
we request more hugepages, but this style of compaction incurs very high
latency.  Experiments with one-time full memory compaction (followed by
hugepage allocations) show that kernel is able to restore a highly
fragmented memory state to a fairly compacted memory state within <1 sec
for a 32G system.  Such data suggests that a more proactive compaction can
help us allocate a large fraction of memory as hugepages keeping
allocation latencies low.

For a more proactive compaction, the approach taken here is to define a
new sysctl called 'vm.compaction_proactiveness' which dictates bounds for
external fragmentation which kcompactd tries to maintain.

The tunable takes a value in range [0, 100], with a default of 20.

Note that a previous version of this patch [1] was found to introduce too
many tunables (per-order extfrag{low, high}), but this one reduces them to
just one sysctl.  Also, the new tunable is an opaque value instead of
asking for specific bounds of "external fragmentation", which would have
been difficult to estimate.  The internal interpretation of this opaque
value allows for future fine-tuning.

Currently, we use a simple translation from this tunable to [low, high]
"fragmentation score" thresholds (low=100-proactiveness, high=low+10%).
The score for a node is defined as weighted mean of per-zone external
fragmentation.  A zone's present_pages determines its weight.

To periodically check per-node score, we reuse per-node kcompactd threads,
which are woken up every 500 milliseconds to check the same.  If a node's
score exceeds its high threshold (as derived from user-provided
proactiveness value), proactive compaction is started until its score
reaches its low threshold value.  By default, proactiveness is set to 20,
which implies threshold values of low=80 and high=90.

This patch is largely based on ideas from Michal Hocko [2].  See also the
LWN article [3].

Performance data
================

System: x64_64, 1T RAM, 80 CPU threads.
Kernel: 5.6.0-rc3 + this patch

echo madvise | sudo tee /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled
echo madvise | sudo tee /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/defrag

Before starting the driver, the system was fragmented from a userspace
program that allocates all memory and then for each 2M aligned section,
frees 3/4 of base pages using munmap.  The workload is mainly anonymous
userspace pages, which are easy to move around.  I intentionally avoided
unmovable pages in this test to see how much latency we incur when
hugepage allocations hit direct compaction.

1. Kernel hugepage allocation latencies

With the system in such a fragmented state, a kernel driver then allocates
as many hugepages as possible and measures allocation latency:

(all latency values are in microseconds)

- With vanilla 5.6.0-rc3

  percentile latency
  –––––––––– –––––––
	   5    7894
	  10    9496
	  25   12561
	  30   15295
	  40   18244
	  50   21229
	  60   27556
	  75   30147
	  80   31047
	  90   32859
	  95   33799

Total 2M hugepages allocated = 383859 (749G worth of hugepages out of 762G
total free => 98% of free memory could be allocated as hugepages)

- With 5.6.0-rc3 + this patch, with proactiveness=20

sysctl -w vm.compaction_proactiveness=20

  percentile latency
  –––––––––– –––––––
	   5       2
	  10       2
	  25       3
	  30       3
	  40       3
	  50       4
	  60       4
	  75       4
	  80       4
	  90       5
	  95     429

Total 2M hugepages allocated = 384105 (750G worth of hugepages out of 762G
total free => 98% of free memory could be allocated as hugepages)

2. JAVA heap allocation

In this test, we first fragment memory using the same method as for (1).

Then, we start a Java process with a heap size set to 700G and request the
heap to be allocated with THP hugepages.  We also set THP to madvise to
allow hugepage backing of this heap.

/usr/bin/time
 java -Xms700G -Xmx700G -XX:+UseTransparentHugePages -XX:+AlwaysPreTouch

The above command allocates 700G of Java heap using hugepages.

- With vanilla 5.6.0-rc3

17.39user 1666.48system 27:37.89elapsed

- With 5.6.0-rc3 + this patch, with proactiveness=20

8.35user 194.58system 3:19.62elapsed

Elapsed time remains around 3:15, as proactiveness is further increased.

Note that proactive compaction happens throughout the runtime of these
workloads.  The situation of one-time compaction, sufficient to supply
hugepages for following allocation stream, can probably happen for more
extreme proactiveness values, like 80 or 90.

In the above Java workload, proactiveness is set to 20.  The test starts
with a node's score of 80 or higher, depending on the delay between the
fragmentation step and starting the benchmark, which gives more-or-less
time for the initial round of compaction.  As t he benchmark consumes
hugepages, node's score quickly rises above the high threshold (90) and
proactive compaction starts again, which brings down the score to the low
threshold level (80).  Repeat.

bpftrace also confirms proactive compaction running 20+ times during the
runtime of this Java benchmark.  kcompactd threads consume 100% of one of
the CPUs while it tries to bring a node's score within thresholds.

Backoff behavior
================

Above workloads produce a memory state which is easy to compact.  However,
if memory is filled with unmovable pages, proactive compaction should
essentially back off.  To test this aspect:

- Created a kernel driver that allocates almost all memory as hugepages
  followed by freeing first 3/4 of each hugepage.
- Set proactiveness=40
- Note that proactive_compact_node() is deferred maximum number of times
  with HPAGE_FRAG_CHECK_INTERVAL_MSEC of wait between each check
  (=> ~30 seconds between retries).

56f3547bfa mm: adjust vm_committed_as_batch according to vm overcommit policy
When checking a performance change for will-it-scale scalability mmap test
[1], we found very high lock contention for spinlock of percpu counter
'vm_committed_as':

    94.14%     0.35%  [kernel.kallsyms]         [k] _raw_spin_lock_irqsave
    48.21% _raw_spin_lock_irqsave;percpu_counter_add_batch;__vm_enough_memory;mmap_region;do_mmap;
    45.91% _raw_spin_lock_irqsave;percpu_counter_add_batch;__do_munmap;

Actually this heavy lock contention is not always necessary.  The
'vm_committed_as' needs to be very precise when the strict
OVERCOMMIT_NEVER policy is set, which requires a rather small batch number
for the percpu counter.

So keep 'batch' number unchanged for strict OVERCOMMIT_NEVER policy, and
lift it to 64X for OVERCOMMIT_ALWAYS and OVERCOMMIT_GUESS policies.  Also
add a sysctl handler to adjust it when the policy is reconfigured.

Benchmark with the same testcase in [1] shows 53% improvement on a 8C/16T
desktop, and 2097%(20X) on a 4S/72C/144T server.  We tested with test
platforms in 0day (server, desktop and laptop), and 80%+ platforms shows
improvements with that test.  And whether it shows improvements depends on
if the test mmap size is bigger than the batch number computed.

And if the lift is 16X, 1/3 of the platforms will show improvements,
though it should help the mmap/unmap usage generally, as Michal Hocko
mentioned:

: I believe that there are non-synthetic worklaods which would benefit from
: a larger batch.  E.g.  large in memory databases which do large mmaps
: during startups from multiple threads.

13685c4a08 sched/uclamp: Add a new sysctl to control RT default boost value
RT tasks by default run at the highest capacity/performance level. When
uclamp is selected this default behavior is retained by enforcing the
requested uclamp.min (p->uclamp_req[UCLAMP_MIN]) of the RT tasks to be
uclamp_none(UCLAMP_MAX), which is SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE; the maximum
value.

This is also referred to as 'the default boost value of RT tasks'.

See commit 1a00d99997 ("sched/uclamp: Set default clamps for RT tasks").

On battery powered devices, it is desired to control this default
(currently hardcoded) behavior at runtime to reduce energy consumed by
RT tasks.

For example, a mobile device manufacturer where big.LITTLE architecture
is dominant, the performance of the little cores varies across SoCs, and
on high end ones the big cores could be too power hungry.

Given the diversity of SoCs, the new knob allows manufactures to tune
the best performance/power for RT tasks for the particular hardware they
run on.

They could opt to further tune the value when the user selects
a different power saving mode or when the device is actively charging.

The runtime aspect of it further helps in creating a single kernel image
that can be run on multiple devices that require different tuning.

Keep in mind that a lot of RT tasks in the system are created by the
kernel. On Android for instance I can see over 50 RT tasks, only
a handful of which created by the Android framework.

To control the default behavior globally by system admins and device
integrator, introduce the new sysctl_sched_uclamp_util_min_rt_default
to change the default boost value of the RT tasks.

I anticipate this to be mostly in the form of modifying the init script
of a particular device.

To avoid polluting the fast path with unnecessary code, the approach
taken is to synchronously do the update by traversing all the existing
tasks in the system. This could race with a concurrent fork(), which is
dealt with by introducing sched_post_fork() function which will ensure
the racy fork will get the right update applied.

Tested on Juno-r2 in combination with the RT capacity awareness [1].
By default an RT task will go to the highest capacity CPU and run at the
maximum frequency, which is particularly energy inefficient on high end
mobile devices because the biggest core[s] are 'huge' and power hungry.

With this patch the RT task can be controlled to run anywhere by
default, and doesn't cause the frequency to be maximum all the time.
Yet any task that really needs to be boosted can easily escape this
default behavior by modifying its requested uclamp.min value
(p->uclamp_req[UCLAMP_MIN]) via sched_setattr() syscall.

e77132e758 kernel/sysctl.c: ignore out-of-range taint bits introduced via kernel.tainted
Users with SYS_ADMIN capability can add arbitrary taint flags to the
running kernel by writing to /proc/sys/kernel/tainted or issuing the
command 'sysctl -w kernel.tainted=...'.  This interface, however, is
open for any integer value and this might cause an invalid set of flags
being committed to the tainted_mask bitset.

This patch introduces a simple way for proc_taint() to ignore any
eventual invalid bit coming from the user input before committing those
bits to the kernel tainted_mask.

60c958d8df panic: add sysctl to dump all CPUs backtraces on oops event
Usually when the kernel reaches an oops condition, it's a point of no
return; in case not enough debug information is available in the kernel
splat, one of the last resorts would be to collect a kernel crash dump
and analyze it.  The problem with this approach is that in order to
collect the dump, a panic is required (to kexec-load the crash kernel).
When in an environment of multiple virtual machines, users may prefer to
try living with the oops, at least until being able to properly shutdown
their VMs / finish their important tasks.

This patch implements a way to collect a bit more debug details when an
oops event is reached, by printing all the CPUs backtraces through the
usage of NMIs (on architectures that support that).  The sysctl added
(and documented) here was called "oops_all_cpu_backtrace", and when set
will (as the name suggests) dump all CPUs backtraces.

Far from ideal, this may be the last option though for users that for
some reason cannot panic on oops.  Most of times oopses are clear enough
to indicate the kernel portion that must be investigated, but in virtual
environments it's possible to observe hypervisor/KVM issues that could
lead to oopses shown in other guests CPUs (like virtual APIC crashes).
This patch hence aims to help debug such complex issues without
resorting to kdump.

0ec9dc9bcb kernel/hung_task.c: introduce sysctl to print all traces when a hung task is detected
Commit 401c636a0e ("kernel/hung_task.c: show all hung tasks before
panic") introduced a change in that we started to show all CPUs
backtraces when a hung task is detected _and_ the sysctl/kernel
parameter "hung_task_panic" is set.  The idea is good, because usually
when observing deadlocks (that may lead to hung tasks), the culprit is
another task holding a lock and not necessarily the task detected as
hung.

The problem with this approach is that dumping backtraces is a slightly
expensive task, specially printing that on console (and specially in
many CPU machines, as servers commonly found nowadays).  So, users that
plan to collect a kdump to investigate the hung tasks and narrow down
the deadlock definitely don't need the CPUs backtrace on dmesg/console,
which will delay the panic and pollute the log (crash tool would easily
grab all CPUs traces with 'bt -a' command).

Also, there's the reciprocal scenario: some users may be interested in
seeing the CPUs backtraces but not have the system panic when a hung
task is detected.  The current approach hence is almost as embedding a
policy in the kernel, by forcing the CPUs backtraces' dump (only) on
hung_task_panic.

This patch decouples the panic event on hung task from the CPUs
backtraces dump, by creating (and documenting) a new sysctl called
"hung_task_all_cpu_backtrace", analog to the approach taken on soft/hard
lockups, that have both a panic and an "all_cpu_backtrace" sysctl to
allow individual control.  The new mechanism for dumping the CPUs
backtraces on hung task detection respects "hung_task_warnings" by not
dumping the traces in case there's no warnings left.

db38d5c106 kernel: add panic_on_taint
Analogously to the introduction of panic_on_warn, this patch introduces
a kernel option named panic_on_taint in order to provide a simple and
generic way to stop execution and catch a coredump when the kernel gets
tainted by any given flag.

This is useful for debugging sessions as it avoids having to rebuild the
kernel to explicitly add calls to panic() into the code sites that
introduce the taint flags of interest.

For instance, if one is interested in proceeding with a post-mortem
analysis at the point a given code path is hitting a bad page (i.e.
unaccount_page_cache_page(), or slab_bug()), a coredump can be collected
by rebooting the kernel with 'panic_on_taint=0x20' amended to the
command line.

Another, perhaps less frequent, use for this option would be as a means
for assuring a security policy case where only a subset of taints, or no
single taint (in paranoid mode), is allowed for the running system.  The
optional switch 'nousertaint' is handy in this particular scenario, as
it will avoid userspace induced crashes by writes to sysctl interface
/proc/sys/kernel/tainted causing false positive hits for such policies.

c843966c55 mm: allow swappiness that prefers reclaiming anon over the file workingset
With the advent of fast random IO devices (SSDs, PMEM) and in-memory swap
devices such as zswap, it's possible for swap to be much faster than
filesystems, and for swapping to be preferable over thrashing filesystem
caches.

d46edd671a bpf: Sharing bpf runtime stats with BPF_ENABLE_STATS
Currently, sysctl kernel.bpf_stats_enabled controls BPF runtime stats.
Typical userspace tools use kernel.bpf_stats_enabled as follows:

  1. Enable kernel.bpf_stats_enabled;
  2. Check program run_time_ns;
  3. Sleep for the monitoring period;
  4. Check program run_time_ns again, calculate the difference;
  5. Disable kernel.bpf_stats_enabled.

The problem with this approach is that only one userspace tool can toggle
this sysctl. If multiple tools toggle the sysctl at the same time, the
measurement may be inaccurate.

To fix this problem while keep backward compatibility, introduce a new
bpf command BPF_ENABLE_STATS. On success, this command enables stats and
returns a valid fd. BPF_ENABLE_STATS takes argument "type". Currently,
only one type, BPF_STATS_RUN_TIME, is supported. We can extend the
command to support other types of stats in the future.

With BPF_ENABLE_STATS, user space tool would have the following flow:

  1. Get a fd with BPF_ENABLE_STATS, and make sure it is valid;
  2. Check program run_time_ns;
  3. Sleep for the monitoring period;
  4. Check program run_time_ns again, calculate the difference;
  5. Close the fd.

32927393dc sysctl: pass kernel pointers to ->proc_handler
Instead of having all the sysctl handlers deal with user pointers, which
is rather hairy in terms of the BPF interaction, copy the input to and
from  userspace in common code.  This also means that the strings are
always NUL-terminated by the common code, making the API a little bit
safer.

As most handler just pass through the data to one of the common handlers
a lot of the changes are mechnical.

eaee41727e sysctl/sysrq: Remove __sysrq_enabled copy
Many embedded boards have a disconnected TTL level serial which can
generate some garbage that can lead to spurious false sysrq detects.

Currently, sysrq can be either completely disabled for serial console
or always disabled (with CONFIG_MAGIC_SYSRQ_SERIAL), since
commit 732dbf3a61 ("serial: do not accept sysrq characters via serial port")

At Arista, we have such boards that can generate BREAK and random
garbage. While disabling sysrq for serial console would solve
the problem with spurious false sysrq triggers, it's also desirable
to have a way to enable sysrq back.

Having the way to enable sysrq was beneficial to debug lockups with
a manual investigation in field and on the other side preventing false
sysrq detections.

As a preparation to add sysrq_toggle_support() call into uart,
remove a private copy of sysrq_enabled from sysctl - it should reflect
the actual status of sysrq.

Furthermore, the private copy isn't correct already in case
sysrq_always_enabled is true. So, remove __sysrq_enabled and use a
getter-helper sysrq_mask() to check sysrq_key_op enabled status.

Currently PREEMPT_RCU and TREE_RCU are mutually exclusive Kconfig

namely a preemptible TREE_RCU. This commit therefore makes PREEMPT_RCU
be a modifer to the TREE_RCU Kconfig option.  This has the benefit of
simplifying several of the #if expressions that formerly needed to
check both, but now need only check one or the other.

204cb79ad4 kernel: sysctl: make drop_caches write-only
Currently, the drop_caches proc file and sysctl read back the last value
written, suggesting this is somehow a stateful setting instead of a
one-time command.  Make it write-only, like e.g.  compact_memory.

While mitigating a VM problem at scale in our fleet, there was confusion
about whether writing to this file will permanently switch the kernel into
a non-caching mode.  This influences the decision making in a tense
situation, where tens of people are trying to fix tens of thousands of
affected machines: Do we need a rollback strategy?  What are the
performance implications of operating in a non-caching state for several
days?  It also caused confusion when the kernel team said we may need to
write the file several times to make sure it's effective ("But it already
reads back 3?").

eec4844fae proc/sysctl: add shared variables for range check
In the sysctl code the proc_dointvec_minmax() function is often used to
validate the user supplied value between an allowed range.  This
function uses the extra1 and extra2 members from struct ctl_table as
minimum and maximum allowed value.

On sysctl handler declaration, in every source file there are some
readonly variables containing just an integer which address is assigned
to the extra1 and extra2 members, so the sysctl range is enforced.

The special values 0, 1 and INT_MAX are very often used as range
boundary, leading duplication of variables like zero=0, one=1,
int_max=INT_MAX in different source files:

    $ git grep -E '\.extra[12].*&(zero|one|int_max)' |wc -l
    248

Add a const int array containing the most commonly used values, some
macros to refer more easily to the correct array member, and use them
instead of creating a local one for every object file.

This is the bloat-o-meter output comparing the old and new binary
compiled with the default Fedora config:

e8f14172c6 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.

3116ad38f5 kernel/sysctl.c: fix proc_do_large_bitmap for large input buffers
Today, proc_do_large_bitmap() truncates a large write input buffer to
PAGE_SIZE - 1, which may result in misparsed numbers at the (truncated)
end of the buffer.  Further, it fails to notify the caller that the
buffer was truncated, so it doesn't get called iteratively to finish the
entire input buffer.

Tell the caller if there's more work to do by adding the skipped amount
back to left/*lenp before returning.

To fix the misparsing, reset the position if we have completely consumed
a truncated buffer (or if just one char is left, which may be a "-" in a
range), and ask the caller to come back for more.

Currently when userspace gives us a values that overflow e.g.  file-max
and other callers of __do_proc_doulongvec_minmax() we simply ignore the
new value and leave the current value untouched.

This can be problematic as it gives the illusion that the limit has

return EINVAL when an overflow is detected.  Please note that this is a

cefdca0a86 userfaultfd/sysctl: add vm.unprivileged_userfaultfd
Userfaultfd can be misued to make it easier to exploit existing
use-after-free (and similar) bugs that might otherwise only make a
short window or race condition available.  By using userfaultfd to
stall a kernel thread, a malicious program can keep some state that it
wrote, stable for an extended period, which it can then access using an
existing exploit.  While it doesn't cause the exploit itself, and while
it's not the only thing that can stall a kernel thread when accessing a
memory location, it's one of the few that never needs privilege.

We can add a flag, allowing userfaultfd to be restricted, so that in
general it won't be useable by arbitrary user programs, but in
environments that require userfaultfd it can be turned back on.

Add a global sysctl knob "vm.unprivileged_userfaultfd" to control
whether userfaultfd is allowed by unprivileged users.  When this is
set to zero, only privileged users (root user, or users with the
CAP_SYS_PTRACE capability) will be able to use the userfaultfd
syscalls.

Andrea said:

: The only difference between the bpf sysctl and the userfaultfd sysctl
: this way is that the bpf sysctl adds the CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability
: requirement, while userfaultfd adds the CAP_SYS_PTRACE requirement,
: because the userfaultfd monitor is more likely to need CAP_SYS_PTRACE
: already if it's doing other kind of tracking on processes runtime, in
: addition of userfaultfd.  In other words both syscalls works only for
: root, when the two sysctl are opt-in set to 1.

0bc1998544 ipv6: Add rate limit mask for ICMPv6 messages
To make ICMPv6 closer to ICMPv4, add ratemask parameter. Since the ICMP
message types use larger numeric values, a simple bitmask doesn't fit.
I use large bitmap. The input and output are the in form of list of
ranges. Set the default to rate limit all error messages but Packet Too
Big. For Packet Too Big, use ratemask instead of hard-coded.

There are functions where icmpv6_xrlim_allow() and icmpv6_global_allow()
aren't called. This patch only adds them to icmpv6_echo_reply().

Rate limiting error messages is mandated by RFC 4443 but RFC 4890 says
that it is also acceptable to rate limit informational messages. Thus,
I removed the current hard-coded behavior of icmpv6_mask_allow() that
doesn't rate limit informational messages.

v2: Add dummy function proc_do_large_bitmap() if CONFIG_PROC_SYSCTL
    isn't defined, expand the description in ip-sysctl.txt and remove
    unnecessary conditional before kfree().
v3: Inline the bitmap instead of dynamically allocated. Still is a
    pointer to it is needed because of the way proc_do_large_bitmap work.

9002b21465 kernel/sysctl.c: fix out-of-bounds access when setting file-max
Commit 32a5ad9c22 ("sysctl: handle overflow for file-max") hooked up
min/max values for the file-max sysctl parameter via the .extra1 and
.extra2 fields in the corresponding struct ctl_table entry.

Unfortunately, the minimum value points at the global 'zero' variable,
which is an int.  This results in a KASAN splat when accessed as a long
by proc_doulongvec_minmax on 64-bit architectures:

Fix the splat by introducing a unsigned long 'zero_ul' and using that
instead.

do_proc_do[u]intvec_minmax_conv() had included open-coded versions of
do_proc_do[u]intvec_conv(); the duplication led to buggy inconsistencies
(missing range checks).  To reduce the likelihood of such problems in the

32a5ad9c22 sysctl: handle overflow for file-max
Currently, when writing

  echo 18446744073709551616 > /proc/sys/fs/file-max

/proc/sys/fs/file-max will overflow and be set to 0.  That quickly
crashes the system.

This commit sets the max and min value for file-max.  The max value is
set to long int.  Any higher value cannot currently be used as the
percpu counters are long ints and not unsigned integers.

Note that the file-max value is ultimately parsed via
__do_proc_doulongvec_minmax().  This function does not report error when
min or max are exceeded.  Which means if a value largen that long int is
written userspace will not receive an error instead the old value will be
kept.  There is an argument to be made that this should be changed and
__do_proc_doulongvec_minmax() should return an error when a dedicated min
or max value are exceeded.  However this has the potential to break
userspace so let's defer this to an RFC patch.

7f2923c4f7 sysctl: handle overflow in proc_get_long
proc_get_long() is a funny function.  It uses simple_strtoul() and for a
good reason.  proc_get_long() wants to always succeed the parse and
return the maybe incorrect value and the trailing characters to check
against a pre-defined list of acceptable trailing values.  However,
simple_strtoul() explicitly ignores overflows which can cause funny
things like the following to happen:

  echo 18446744073709551616 > /proc/sys/fs/file-max
  cat /proc/sys/fs/file-max
  0

(Which will cause your system to silently die behind your back.)

On the other hand kstrtoul() does do overflow detection but does not
return the trailing characters, and also fails the parse when anything
other than '\n' is a trailing character whereas proc_get_long() wants to
be more lenient.

Now, before adding another kstrtoul() function let's simply add a static
parse strtoul_lenient() which:
 - fails on overflow with -ERANGE
 - returns the trailing characters to the caller

The reason why we should fail on ERANGE is that we already do a partial
fail on overflow right now.  Namely, when the TMPBUFLEN is exceeded.  So
we already reject values such as 184467440737095516160 (21 chars) but
accept values such as 18446744073709551616 (20 chars) but both are
overflows.  So we should just always reject 64bit overflows and not
special-case this based on the number of chars.

6b7e5cad65 mm: remove sysctl_extfrag_handler()
sysctl_extfrag_handler() neglects to propagate the return value from
proc_dointvec_minmax() to its caller.  It's a wrapper that doesn't need
to exist, so just use proc_dointvec_minmax() directly.

492ecee892 bpf: enable program stats
JITed BPF programs are indistinguishable from kernel functions, but unlike
kernel code BPF code can be changed often.
Typical approach of "perf record" + "perf report" profiling and tuning of
kernel code works just as well for BPF programs, but kernel code doesn't
need to be monitored whereas BPF programs do.
Users load and run large amount of BPF programs.
These BPF stats allow tools monitor the usage of BPF on the server.
The monitoring tools will turn sysctl kernel.bpf_stats_enabled
on and off for few seconds to sample average cost of the programs.
Aggregated data over hours and days will provide an insight into cost of BPF
and alarms can trigger in case given program suddenly gets more expensive.

The cost of two sched_clock() per program invocation adds ~20 nsec.
Fast BPF progs (like selftests/bpf/progs/test_pkt_access.c) will slow down
from ~10 nsec to ~30 nsec.
static_key minimizes the cost of the stats collection.
There is no measurable difference before/after this patch
with kernel.bpf_stats_enabled=0
