For an over-committed guest with more vCPUs than physical CPUs
available, it is possible that a vCPU may be kicked twice before
getting the lock - once before it becomes queue head and once again
before it gets the lock. All these CPU kicking and halting (VMEXIT)
can be expensive and slow down system performance.
This patch adds a new vCPU state (vcpu_hashed) which enables the code
to delay CPU kicking until at unlock time. Once this state is set,
the new lock holder will set _Q_SLOW_VAL and fill in the hash table
on behalf of the halted queue head vCPU. The original vcpu_halted
state will be used by pv_wait_node() only to differentiate other
queue nodes from the qeue head.

Currently, a reader will check first to make sure that the writer mode
byte is cleared before incrementing the reader count. That waiting is
not really necessary. It increases the latency in the reader/writer
to reader transition and reduces readers performance.
This patch eliminates that waiting. It also has the side effect
of reducing the chance of writer lock stealing and improving the
fairness of the lock. Using a locking microbenchmark, a 10-threads 5M
locking loop of mostly readers (RW ratio = 10,000:1) has the following
performance numbers in a Haswell-EX box:

When we unlock in __pv_queued_spin_unlock(), a failed cmpxchg() on the lock
value indicates that we need to take the slow-path and unhash the
corresponding node blocked on the lock.
Since a failed cmpxchg() does not provide any memory-ordering guarantees,
it is possible that the node data could be read before the cmpxchg() on
weakly-ordered architectures and therefore return a stale value, leading
to hash corruption and/or a BUG().
This patch adds an smb_rmb() following the failed cmpxchg operation, so
that the unhashing is ordered after the lock has been checked.

The Linux kernel suspend path has traditionally invoked sys_sync()
before freezing user threads.
But sys_sync() can be expensive, and some user-space OS's do not want
the kernel to pay the cost of sys_sync() on every suspend -- preferring
invoke sync() from user-space if/when they want it.
So make sys_sync on suspend build-time optional.
The default is unchanged.

Change xol_add_vma() to use _install_special_mapping(), this way
we can name the vma installed by uprobes. Currently it looks
like private anonymous mapping, this is confusing and
complicates the debugging. With this change /proc/$pid/maps
reports "[uprobes]".
As a side effect this will cause core dumps to include the XOL vma
and I think this is good; this can help to debug the problem if
the app crashed because it was probed.

install_special_mapping(pages) expects that "pages" is the zero-
terminated array while xol_add_vma() passes &area->page, this
means that special_mapping_fault() can wrongly use the next
member in xol_area (vaddr) as "struct page *".
Fortunately, this area is not expandable so pgoff != 0 isn't
possible (modulo bugs in special_mapping_vmops), but still this
does not look good.

The previous change documents that cleanup_return_instances()
can't always detect the dead frames, the stack can grow. But
there is one special case which imho worth fixing:
arch_uretprobe_is_alive() can return true when the stack didn't
actually grow, but the next "call" insn uses the already
invalidated frame.
Test-case:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <setjmp.h>
jmp_buf jmp;
int nr = 1024;
void func_2(void)
{
if (--nr == 0)
return;
longjmp(jmp, 1);
}
void func_1(void)
{
setjmp(jmp);
func_2();
}
int main(void)
{
func_1();
return 0;
}
If you ret-probe func_1() and func_2() prepare_uretprobe() hits
the MAX_URETPROBE_DEPTH limit and "return" from func_2() is not
reported.
When we know that the new call is not chained, we can do the
more strict check. In this case "sp" points to the new ret-addr,
so every frame which uses the same "sp" must be dead. The only
complication is that arch_uretprobe_is_alive() needs to know was
it chained or not, so we add the new RP_CHECK_CHAIN_CALL enum
and change prepare_uretprobe() to pass RP_CHECK_CALL only if
!chained.
Note: arch_uretprobe_is_alive() could also re-read *sp and check
if this word is still trampoline_vaddr. This could obviously
improve the logic, but I would like to avoid another
copy_from_user() especially in the case when we can't avoid the
false "alive == T" positives.

Change prepare_uretprobe() to flush the !arch_uretprobe_is_alive()
return_instance's. This is not needed correctness-wise, but can help
to avoid the failure caused by MAX_URETPROBE_DEPTH.
Note: in this case arch_uretprobe_is_alive() can be false
positive, the stack can grow after longjmp(). Unfortunately, the
kernel can't 100% solve this problem, but see the next patch.

Test-case:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <setjmp.h>
jmp_buf jmp;
void func_2(void)
{
longjmp(jmp, 1);
}
void func_1(void)
{
if (setjmp(jmp))
return;
func_2();
printf("ERR!! I am running on the caller's stack\n");
}
int main(void)
{
func_1();
return 0;
}
fails if you probe func_1() and func_2() because
handle_trampoline() assumes that the probed function should must
return and hit the bp installed be prepare_uretprobe(). But in
this case func_2() does not return, so when func_1() returns the
kernel uses the no longer valid return_instance of func_2().
Change handle_trampoline() to unwind ->return_instances until we
know that the next chain is alive or NULL, this ensures that the
current chain is the last we need to report and free.
Alternatively, every return_instance could use unique
trampoline_vaddr, in this case we could use it as a key. And
this could solve the problem with sigaltstack() automatically.
But this approach needs more changes, and it puts the "hard"
limit on MAX_URETPROBE_DEPTH. Plus it can not solve another
problem partially fixed by the next patch.
Note: this change has no effect on !x86, the arch-agnostic
version of arch_uretprobe_is_alive() just returns "true".
TODO: as documented by the previous change, arch_uretprobe_is_alive()
can be fooled by sigaltstack/etc.

Add the x86 specific version of arch_uretprobe_is_alive()
helper. It returns true if the stack frame mangled by
prepare_uretprobe() is still on stack. So if it returns false,
we know that the probed function has already returned.
We add the new return_instance->stack member and change the
generic code to initialize it in prepare_uretprobe, but it
should be equally useful for other architectures.
TODO: this assumes that the probed application can't use
multiple stacks (say sigaltstack). We will try to improve
this logic later.

Add the new "weak" helper, arch_uretprobe_is_alive(), used by
the next patches. It should return true if this return_instance
is still valid. The arch agnostic version just always returns
true.
The patch exports "struct return_instance" for the architectures
which want to override this hook. We can also cleanup
prepare_uretprobe() if we pass the new return_instance to
arch_uretprobe_hijack_return_addr().

No functional changes, preparation.
Add the new helper, find_next_ret_chain(), which finds the first
!chained entry and returns its ->next. Yes, it is suboptimal. We
probably want to turn ->chained into ->start_of_this_chain
pointer and avoid another loop. But this needs the boring
changes in dup_utask(), so lets do this later.
Change the main loop in handle_trampoline() to unwind the stack
until ri is equal to the pointer returned by this new helper.

1. It doesn't make sense to continue if handle_trampoline()
fails, change handle_swbp() to always return after this call.
2. Turn pr_warn() into uprobe_warn(), and change

return to user mode with the corrupted instruction_pointer() which

It is not uncommon (at least with the ARM stuff) to have a piece
of hardware that implements different flavours of "interrupts".
A typical example of this is the GICv3 ITS, which implements
standard PCI/MSI support, but also some form of "generic MSI".
So far, the PCI/MSI domain is registered using the ITS device_node,
so that irq_find_host can return it. On the contrary, the raw MSI
domain is not registered with an device_node, making it impossible
to be looked up by another subsystem (obviously, using the same
device_node twice would only result in confusion, as it is not
defined which one irq_find_host would return).
A solution to this is to "type" domains that may be aliasing, and
to be able to lookup an device_node that matches a given type.
For this, we introduce irq_find_matching_host() as a superset
of irq_find_host:
struct irq_domain *irq_find_matching_host(struct device_node *node,
enum irq_domain_bus_token bus_token);
where bus_token is the "type" we want to match the domain against
(so far, only DOMAIN_BUS_ANY is defined). This result in some
moderately invasive changes on the PPC side (which is the only
user of the .match method).
This has otherwise no functionnal change.

Currently we have two different ways to signal an I/O error on a BIO:
(1) by clearing the BIO_UPTODATE flag
(2) by returning a Linux errno value to the bi_end_io callback
The first one has the drawback of only communicating a single possible
error (-EIO), and the second one has the drawback of not beeing persistent
when bios are queued up, and are not passed along from child to parent
bio in the ever more popular chaining scenario. Having both mechanisms
available has the additional drawback of utterly confusing driver authors
and introducing bugs where various I/O submitters only deal with one of
them, and the others have to add boilerplate code to deal with both kinds
of error returns.
So add a new bi_error field to store an errno value directly in struct
bio and remove the existing mechanisms to clean all this up.

Restart the tick when necessary from the irq exit path. It makes nohz
full more flexible, simplify the related IPIs and doesn't bring
significant overhead on irq exit.
In a longer term view, it will allow us to piggyback the nohz kick
on the scheduler IPI in the future instead of sending a dedicated IPI
that often doubles the scheduler IPI on task wakeup. This will require
more changes though including careful review of resched_curr() callers
to include nohz full needs.

On nohz full early days, idle dynticks and full dynticks weren't well
integrated and we couldn't risk full dynticks calls on idle without
risking messing up tick idle statistics. This is why we prevented such

Nowadays full dynticks and idle dynticks are better integrated and

We don't actually hold the module_mutex when calling find_module_all

However, access to the list read-only is safe if preempt is disabled,
so we can weaken the assertion. Keep a strong version for external

We must not update the running timestamp if we fail to schedule the
event, the event will not have ran. This can (and did) result in
negative total runtime because the stopped timestamp was before the
running timestamp (we 'started' but never stopped the event -- because
it never really started we didn't have to stop it either).

mov %rsp, %r1 ; r1 = rsp
add $-8, %r1 ; r1 = rsp - 8
store_q $123, -8(%rsp) ; *(u64*)r1 = 123 <- valid
store_q $123, (%r1) ; *(u64*)r1 = 123 <- previously invalid
mov $0, %r0
exit ; Always need to exit
And we'd get the following error:
0: (bf) r1 = r10
1: (07) r1 += -8
2: (7a) *(u64 *)(r10 -8) = 999
3: (7a) *(u64 *)(r1 +0) = 999

We already know that a register is a stack address and the appropriate
offset, so we should be able to validate those references as well.

Some (admittedly odd) irqchips perform functions that are not directly
related to any of their child IRQ lines, and therefore need to perform
some tasks during suspend/resume regardless of whether there are
any "installed" interrupts for the irqchip. However, the current
generic-chip framework does not call the chip's irq_{suspend,resume}
when there are no interrupts installed (this makes sense, because there
are no irq_data objects for such a call to be made).
More specifically, irq-bcm7120-l2 configures both a forwarding mask
(which affects other top-level GIC IRQs) and a second-level interrupt
mask (for managing its own child interrupts). The former must be
saved/restored on suspend/resume, even when there's nothing to do for
the latter.
This patch adds a new set of suspend/resume hooks to irq_chip_generic,
to help represent *chip* suspend/resume, rather than IRQ suspend/resume.
These callbacks will always be called for an IRQ chip (regardless of the
installed interrupts) and are based on the per-chip irq_chip_generic
struct, rather than the per-IRQ irq_data struct.
The original problem report is described in extra detail here:

Pull ftrace fix from Steven Rostedt:
"Back in 3.16 the ftrace code was redesigned and cleaned up to remove
the double iteration list (one for registered ftrace ops, and one for
registered "global" ops), to just use one list. That simplified the
code but also broke the function tracing filtering on pid.
This updates the code to handle the filtering again with the new
logic"

Commit 4104d326b670 ("ftrace: Remove global function list and call function

new design. But this cleanup also broke the filtering of PIDs that are added
to the set_ftrace_pid file.
Add back the proper hooks to have pid filtering working once again.

There are already two events for context switches, namely the tracepoint
sched:sched_switch and the software event context_switches.
Unfortunately neither are suitable for use by non-privileged users for
the purpose of synchronizing hardware trace data (e.g. Intel PT) to the
context switch.
Tracepoints are no good at all for non-privileged users because they
need either CAP_SYS_ADMIN or /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid <= -1.
On the other hand, kernel software events need either CAP_SYS_ADMIN or
/proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid <= 1.
Now many distributions do default perf_event_paranoid to 1 making
context_switches a contender, except it has another problem (which is
also shared with sched:sched_switch) which is that it happens before
perf schedules events out instead of after perf schedules events in.
Whereas a privileged user can see all the events anyway, a
non-privileged user only sees events for their own processes, in other
words they see when their process was scheduled out not when it was
scheduled in. That presents two problems to use the event:
1. the information comes too late, so tools have to look ahead in the
event stream to find out what the current state is
2. if they are unlucky tracing might have stopped before the
context-switches event is recorded.
This new PERF_RECORD_SWITCH event does not have those problems
and it also has a couple of other small advantages.
It is easier to use because it is an auxiliary event (like mmap, comm
and task events) which can be enabled by setting a single bit. It is
smaller than sched:sched_switch and easier to parse.
To make the event useful for privileged users also, if the
context is cpu-wide then the event record will be
PERF_RECORD_SWITCH_CPU_WIDE which is the same as
PERF_RECORD_SWITCH except it also provides the next or
previous pid/tid.

RCU's rcu_oom_notify() disables CPU hotplug in order to stabilize the
list of online CPUs, which it traverses. However, this is completely
pointless because smp_call_function_single() will quietly fail if invoked
on an offline CPU. Because the count of requests is incremented in the
rcu_oom_notify_cpu() function that is remotely invoked, everything works
nicely even in the face of concurrent CPU-hotplug operations.
Furthermore, in recent kernels, invoking get_online_cpus() from an OOM
notifier can result in deadlock. This commit therefore removes the
call to get_online_cpus() and put_online_cpus() from rcu_oom_notify().

In kernels built with CONFIG_PREEMPT, _cpu_down() waits for RCU and
RCU-sched grace periods back-to-back, incurring quite a bit more latency
than required. This commit therefore uses the new synchronize_rcu_mult()
to allow waiting for both grace periods concurrently.

There have been several requests for a primitive that waits for
grace periods for several RCU flavors concurrently, so this
commit creates it. This is a variadic macro, and you pass in
the call_rcu() functions of the flavors of RCU that you wish to
wait for.
Note that you cannot pass in call_srcu() for two reasons: (1) This
would result in a type mismatch and (2) You need to specify which
srcu_struct you want to use. Handle this by creating a wrapper
function for your SRCU domain, for example:
void call_srcu_mine(struct rcu_head *head, rcu_callback_t func)
{
call_srcu(&ss_mine, head, func);
}
You can then do something like this:
synchronize_rcu_mult(call_srcu_mine, call_rcu, call_rcu_sched);
