Apparently we never clear these values, so they'll remain set
since the setting of them is conditional. Clear the values in

If cfg80211_pmsr_process_abort() moves all the PMSR requests that
need to be freed into a local list before aborting and freeing them.
As a result, it is possible that cfg80211_pmsr_complete() will run in
parallel and free the same PMSR request.
Fix it by freeing the request in cfg80211_pmsr_complete() only if it
is still in the original pmsr list.

When ran from the sched-out path (preempt_notifier or perf_event),
p->state is irrelevant to determine preemption. You can get preempted
with !task_is_running() just fine.
The right indicator for preemption is if the task is still on the
runqueue in the sched-out path.

The source (&dcbx_info->operational.params) and dest
(&p_hwfn->p_dcbx_info->set.config.params) are both struct qed_dcbx_params
(560 bytes), not struct qed_dcbx_admin_params (564 bytes), which is used
as the memcpy() size.
However it seems that struct qed_dcbx_operational_params
(dcbx_info->operational)'s layout matches struct qed_dcbx_admin_params
(p_hwfn->p_dcbx_info->set.config)'s 4 byte difference (3 padding, 1 byte
for "valid").
On the assumption that the size is wrong (rather than the source structure
type), adjust the memcpy() size argument to be 4 bytes smaller and add
a BUILD_BUG_ON() to validate any changes to the structure sizes.

The PSCI CPU suspend code isn't aware of the PMR vs DAIF game,
resulting in a system that locks up if entering CPU suspend
with GICv3 pNMI enabled.
To save the day, teach the suspend code about our new cpuidle
context helpers, which will do everything that's required just
like the usual WFI cpuidle code.

The Cypress CY7C65632 appears to have an issue with auto suspend and
detecting devices, not too dissimilar to the SMSC 5534B hub. It is
easiest to reproduce by connecting multiple mass storage devices to
the hub at the same time. On a Lenovo Yoga, around 1 in 3 attempts
result in the devices not being detected. It is however possible to
make them appear using lsusb -v.
Disabling autosuspend for this hub resolves the issue.

The counter value of a perf task may leak to another RDPMC task.
For example, a perf stat task as below is running on CPU 0.
perf stat -e 'branches,cycles' -- taskset -c 0 ./workload
In the meantime, an RDPMC task, which is also running on CPU 0, may read
the GP counters periodically. (The RDPMC task creates a fixed event,
but read four GP counters.)
$./rdpmc_read_all_counters
index 0x0 value 0x8001e5970f99
index 0x1 value 0x8005d750edb6
index 0x2 value 0x0
index 0x3 value 0x0
index 0x0 value 0x8002358e48a5
index 0x1 value 0x8006bd1e3bc9
index 0x2 value 0x0
index 0x3 value 0x0
It is a potential security issue. Once the attacker knows what the other
thread is counting. The PerfMon counter can be used as a side-channel to
attack cryptosystems.
The counter value of the perf stat task leaks to the RDPMC task because
perf never clears the counter when it's stopped.
Three methods were considered to address the issue.
- Unconditionally reset the counter in x86_pmu_del(). It can bring extra
overhead even when there is no RDPMC task running.
- Only reset the un-assigned dirty counters when the RDPMC task is
scheduled in via sched_task(). It fails for the below case.
Thread A Thread B
clone(CLONE_THREAD) --->
set_affine(0)
set_affine(1)
while (!event-enabled)
;
event = perf_event_open()
mmap(event)
ioctl(event, IOC_ENABLE); --->
RDPMC
Counters are still leaked to the thread B.
- Only reset the un-assigned dirty counters before updating the CR4.PCE
bit. The method is implemented here.
The dirty counter is a counter, on which the assigned event has been
deleted, but the counter is not reset. To track the dirty counters,
add a 'dirty' variable in the struct cpu_hw_events.
The security issue can only be found with an RDPMC task. To enable the
RDMPC, the CR4.PCE bit has to be updated. Add a
perf_clear_dirty_counters() right before updating the CR4.PCE bit to
clear the existing dirty counters. Only the current un-assigned dirty
counters are reset, because the RDPMC assigned dirty counters will be
updated soon.
After applying the patch,
$ ./rdpmc_read_all_counters

Performance
The performance of a context switch only be impacted when there are two
or more perf users and one of the users must be an RDPMC user. In other
cases, there is no performance impact.
The worst-case occurs when there are two users: the RDPMC user only
uses one counter; while the other user uses all available counters.
When the RDPMC task is scheduled in, all the counters, other than the
RDPMC assigned one, have to be reset.
Test results for the worst-case, using a modified lat_ctx as measured
on an Ice Lake platform, which has 8 GP and 3 FP counters (ignoring
SLOTS).
lat_ctx -s 128K -N 1000 processes 2
Without the patch:
The context switch time is 4.97 us
With the patch:
The context switch time is 5.16 us
There is ~4% performance drop for the context switching time in the
worst-case.

This is a partial forward-port of Peter Ziljstra's work first posted
at:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/[email protected]/
Currently select_idle_cpu()'s proportional scheme uses the average idle
time *for when we are idle*, that is temporally challenged. When a CPU
is not at all idle, we'll happily continue using whatever value we did
see when the CPU goes idle. To fix this, introduce a separate average
idle and age it (the existing value still makes sense for things like
new-idle balancing, which happens when we do go idle).
The overall goal is to not spend more time scanning for idle CPUs than
we're idle for. Otherwise we're inhibiting work. This means that we need to
consider the cost over all the wake-ups between consecutive idle periods.
To track this, the scan cost is subtracted from the estimated average
idle time.
The impact of this patch is related to workloads that have domains that
are fully busy or overloaded. Without the patch, the scan depth may be
too high because a CPU is not reaching idle.
Due to the nature of the patch, this is a regression magnet. It
potentially wins when domains are almost fully busy or overloaded --
at that point searches are likely to fail but idle is not being aged
as CPUs are active so search depth is too large and useless. It will
potentially show regressions when there are idle CPUs and a deep search is
beneficial. This tbench result on a 2-socket broadwell machine partially
illustates the problem

Again, higher thread counts benefit and the standard deviation
shows that results are also a lot more stable when the idle
time is aged.
The patch potentially matters when a socket was multiple LLCs as the
maximum search depth is lower. However, some of the test results were
suspiciously good (e.g. specjbb2005 gaining 50% on a Zen1 machine) and
other results were not dramatically different to other mcahines.
Given the nature of the patch, Peter's full series is not being forward
ported as each part should stand on its own. Preferably they would be
merged at different times to reduce the risk of false bisections.

Energy Aware Scheduling (EAS) needs to predict the decisions made by
SchedUtil. The map_util_freq() exists to do that.
There are corner cases where the max allowed frequency might be reduced
(due to thermal). SchedUtil as a CPUFreq governor, is aware of that
but EAS is not. This patch aims to address it.
SchedUtil stores the maximum allowed frequency in
'sugov_policy::next_freq' field. EAS has to predict that value, which is
the real used frequency. That value is made after a call to
cpufreq_driver_resolve_freq() which clamps to the CPUFreq policy limits.
In the existing code EAS is not able to predict that real frequency.
This leads to energy estimation errors.
To avoid wrong energy estimation in EAS (due to frequency miss prediction)
make sure that the step which calculates Performance Domain frequency,
is also aware of the allowed CPU capacity.
Furthermore, modify map_util_freq() to not extend the frequency value.
Instead, use map_util_perf() to extend the util value in both places:
SchedUtil and EAS, but for EAS clamp it to max allowed CPU capacity.
In the end, we achieve the same desirable behavior for both subsystems
and alignment in regards to the real CPU frequency.

Energy Aware Scheduling (EAS) needs to be able to predict the frequency
requests made by the SchedUtil governor to properly estimate energy used
in the future. It has to take into account CPUs utilization and forecast
Performance Domain (PD) frequency. There is a corner case when the max
allowed frequency might be reduced due to thermal. SchedUtil is aware of
that reduced frequency, so it should be taken into account also in EAS
estimations.
SchedUtil, as a CPUFreq governor, knows the maximum allowed frequency of
a CPU, thanks to cpufreq_driver_resolve_freq() and internal clamping
to 'policy::max'. SchedUtil is responsible to respect that upper limit
while setting the frequency through CPUFreq drivers. This effective
frequency is stored internally in 'sugov_policy::next_freq' and EAS has
to predict that value.
In the existing code the raw value of arch_scale_cpu_capacity() is used
for clamping the returned CPU utilization from effective_cpu_util().
This patch fixes issue with too big single CPU utilization, by introducing
clamping to the allowed CPU capacity. The allowed CPU capacity is a CPU
capacity reduced by thermal pressure raw value.
Thanks to knowledge about allowed CPU capacity, we don't get too big value
for a single CPU utilization, which is then added to the util sum. The
util sum is used as a source of information for estimating whole PD energy.
To avoid wrong energy estimation in EAS (due to capped frequency), make
sure that the calculation of util sum is aware of allowed CPU capacity.
This thermal pressure might be visible in scenarios where the CPUs are not
heavily loaded, but some other component (like GPU) drastically reduced
available power budget and increased the SoC temperature. Thus, we still
use EAS for task placement and CPUs are not over-utilized.

The thermal pressure signal gives information to the scheduler about
reduced CPU capacity due to thermal. It is based on a value stored in
a per-cpu 'thermal_pressure' variable. The online CPUs will get the
new value there, while the offline won't. Unfortunately, when the CPU
is back online, the value read from per-cpu variable might be wrong
(stale data). This might affect the scheduler decisions, since it
sees the CPU capacity differently than what is actually available.
Fix it by making sure that all online+offline CPUs would get the
proper value in their per-cpu variable when thermal framework sets
capping.

In case the _avg delta is 0 there is no need to update se's _avg
(level n) nor cfs_rq's _avg (level n-1). These values stay the same.
Since cfs_rq's _avg isn't changed, i.e. no load is propagated down,
cfs_rq's _sum should stay the same as well.
So bail out after se's _sum has been updated.
