When trace_clock option is not set and unstable clcok detected,
tracing_set_default_clock() sets trace_clock(ThinkPad A285 is one of
case). In that case, if lockdown is in effect, null pointer
dereference error happens in ring_buffer_set_clock().

While working on a tool to convert SQL syntex into the histogram language of
the kernel, I discovered the following bug:
# echo 'first u64 start_time u64 end_time pid_t pid u64 delta' >> synthetic_events
# echo 'hist:keys=pid:start=common_timestamp' > events/sched/sched_waking/trigger
# echo 'hist:keys=next_pid:delta=common_timestamp-$start,start2=$start:onmatch(sched.sched_waking).trace(first,$start2,common_timestamp,next_pid,$delta)' > events/sched/sched_switch/trigger
Would not display any histograms in the sched_switch histogram side.
But if I were to swap the location of
"delta=common_timestamp-$start" with "start2=$start"
Such that the last line had:
# echo 'hist:keys=next_pid:start2=$start,delta=common_timestamp-$start:onmatch(sched.sched_waking).trace(first,$start2,common_timestamp,next_pid,$delta)' > events/sched/sched_switch/trigger
The histogram works as expected.
What I found out is that the expressions clear out the value once it is
resolved. As the variables are resolved in the order listed, when
processing:
delta=common_timestamp-$start
The $start is cleared. When it gets to "start2=$start", it errors out with
"unresolved symbol" (which is silent as this happens at the location of the
trace), and the histogram is dropped.
When processing the histogram for variable references, instead of adding a
new reference for a variable used twice, use the same reference. That way,
not only is it more efficient, but the order will no longer matter in
processing of the variables.
From Tom Zanussi:
"Just to clarify some more about what the problem was is that without
your patch, we would have two separate references to the same variable,
and during resolve_var_refs(), they'd both want to be resolved
separately, so in this case, since the first reference to start wasn't
part of an expression, it wouldn't get the read-once flag set, so would
be read normally, and then the second reference would do the read-once
read and also be read but using read-once. So everything worked and
you didn't see a problem:
from: start2=$start,delta=common_timestamp-$start
In the second case, when you switched them around, the first reference
would be resolved by doing the read-once, and following that the second
reference would try to resolve and see that the variable had already
been read, so failed as unset, which caused it to short-circuit out and
not do the trigger action to generate the synthetic event:
to: delta=common_timestamp-$start,start2=$start
With your patch, we only have the single resolution which happens
correctly the one time it's resolved, so this can't happen."

info->mod->name
In setup_load_info(), info->name (which contains the name of the module,
mostly used for early logging purposes before the module gets set up)
gets unconditionally assigned if .modinfo is missing despite the fact
that there is an if (!info->name) check near the end of the function.
Avoid assigning a placeholder string to info->name if .modinfo doesn't
exist, so that we can fall back to info->mod->name later on.

This reverts commit 786b2384bf1c ("um: Enable CONFIG_CONSTRUCTORS").
There are two issues with this commit, uncovered by Anton in tests
on some (Debian) systems:
1) I completely forgot to call any constructors if CONFIG_CONSTRUCTORS
isn't set. Don't recall now if it just wasn't needed on my system, or
if I never tested this case.
2) With that fixed, it works - with CONFIG_CONSTRUCTORS *unset*. If I
set CONFIG_CONSTRUCTORS, it fails again, which isn't totally
unexpected since whatever wanted to run is likely to have to run
before the kernel init etc. that calls the constructors in this case.
Basically, some constructors that gcc emits (libc has?) need to run
very early during init; the failure mode otherwise was that the ptrace
fork test already failed:
----------------------
$ ./linux mem=512M
Core dump limits :
soft - 0
hard - NONE
Checking that ptrace can change system call numbers...check_ptrace : child exited with exitcode 6, while expecting 0; status 0x67f
Aborted
----------------------
Thinking more about this, it's clear that we simply cannot support
CONFIG_CONSTRUCTORS in UML. All the cases we need now (gcov, kasan)
involve not use of the __attribute__((constructor)), but instead
some constructor code/entry generated by gcc. Therefore, we cannot
distinguish between kernel constructors and system constructors.
Thus, revert this commit.

Pull thread fixes from Christian Brauner:
"Here is an urgent fix for ptrace_may_access() permission checking.
Commit 69f594a38967 ("ptrace: do not audit capability check when
outputing /proc/pid/stat") introduced the ability to opt out of audit
messages for accesses to various proc files since they are not
violations of policy.
While doing so it switched the check from ns_capable() to
has_ns_capability{_noaudit}(). That means it switched from checking
the subjective credentials (ktask->cred) of the task to using the
objective credentials (ktask->real_cred). This is appears to be wrong.
ptrace_has_cap() is currently only used in ptrace_may_access() And is
used to check whether the calling task (subject) has the
CAP_SYS_PTRACE capability in the provided user namespace to operate on
the target task (object). According to the cred.h comments this means
the subjective credentials of the calling task need to be used.
With this fix we switch ptrace_has_cap() to use security_capable() and
thus back to using the subjective credentials.
As one example where this might be particularly problematic, Jann
pointed out that in combination with the upcoming IORING_OP_OPENAT{2}
feature, this bug might allow unprivileged users to bypass the
capability checks while asynchronously opening files like /proc/*/mem,
because the capability checks for this would be performed against
kernel credentials.
To illustrate on the former point about this being exploitable: When
io_uring creates a new context it records the subjective credentials
of the caller. Later on, when it starts to do work it creates a kernel
thread and registers a callback. The callback runs with kernel creds
for ktask->real_cred and ktask->cred.
To prevent this from becoming a full-blown 0-day io_uring will call
override_cred() and override ktask->cred with the subjective
credentials of the creator of the io_uring instance. With
ptrace_has_cap() currently looking at ktask->real_cred this override
will be ineffective and the caller will be able to open arbitray proc
files as mentioned above.
Luckily, this is currently not exploitable but would be so once
IORING_OP_OPENAT{2} land in v5.6. Let's fix it now.
To minimize potential regressions I successfully ran the criu
testsuite. criu makes heavy use of ptrace() and extensively hits
ptrace_may_access() codepaths and has a good change of detecting any
regressions.
Additionally, I succesfully ran the ptrace and seccomp kernel tests"

The low resolution parts of the VDSO, i.e.:
clock_gettime(CLOCK_*_COARSE), clock_getres(), time()
can be used even if there is no VDSO capable clocksource.
But if an architecture opts out of the VDSO data update then this
information becomes stale. This affects ARM when there is no architected
timer available. The lack of update causes userspace to use stale data
forever.
Make the update of the low resolution parts unconditional and only skip
the update of the high resolution parts if the architecture requests it.

Robert reported that during boot the watchdog timestamp is set to 0 for one
second which is the indicator for a watchdog reset.
The reason for this is that the timestamp is in seconds and the time is
taken from sched clock and divided by ~1e9. sched clock starts at 0 which
means that for the first second during boot the watchdog timestamp is 0,
i.e. reset.
Use ULONG_MAX as the reset indicator value so the watchdog works correctly
right from the start. ULONG_MAX would only conflict with a real timestamp
if the system reaches an uptime of 136 years on 32bit and almost eternity
on 64bit.

Arm64 has a more optimized spinning loop (atomic_cond_read_acquire)
using wfe for spinlock that can boost performance of sibling threads
by putting the current cpu to a wait state that is broken only when
the monitored variable changes or an external event happens.
OSQ has a more complicated spinning loop. Besides the lock value, it
also checks for need_resched() and vcpu_is_preempted(). The check for
need_resched() is not a problem as it is only set by the tick interrupt
handler. That will be detected by the spinning cpu right after iret.
The vcpu_is_preempted() check, however, is a problem as changes to the
preempt state of of previous node will not affect the wait state. For
ARM64, vcpu_is_preempted is not currently defined and so is a no-op.
Will has indicated that he is planning to para-virtualize wfe instead
of defining vcpu_is_preempted for PV support. So just add a comment in
arch/arm64/include/asm/spinlock.h to indicate that vcpu_is_preempted()
should not be defined as suggested.
On a 2-socket 56-core 224-thread ARM64 system, a kernel mutex locking
microbenchmark was run for 10s with and without the patch. The
performance numbers before patch were:
Running locktest with mutex [runtime = 10s, load = 1]
Threads = 224, Min/Mean/Max = 316/123,143/2,121,269
Threads = 224, Total Rate = 2,757 kop/s; Percpu Rate = 12 kop/s
After patch, the numbers were:
Running locktest with mutex [runtime = 10s, load = 1]
Threads = 224, Min/Mean/Max = 334/147,836/1,304,787
Threads = 224, Total Rate = 3,311 kop/s; Percpu Rate = 15 kop/s
So there was about 20% performance improvement.

The commit 91d2a812dfb9 ("locking/rwsem: Make handoff writer
optimistically spin on owner") will allow a recently woken up waiting
writer to spin on the owner. Unfortunately, if the owner happens to be
RWSEM_OWNER_UNKNOWN, the code will incorrectly spin on it leading to a
kernel crash. This is fixed by passing the proper non-spinnable bits
to rwsem_spin_on_owner() so that RWSEM_OWNER_UNKNOWN will be treated
as a non-spinnable target.

topology.c::get_group() relies on the assumption that non-NUMA domains do
not partially overlap. Zeng Tao pointed out in [1] that such topology
descriptions, while completely bogus, can end up being exposed to the
scheduler.
In his example (8 CPUs, 2-node system), we end up with:
MC span for CPU3 == 3-7
MC span for CPU4 == 4-7
The first pass through get_group(3, sdd@MC) will result in the following
sched_group list:
3 -> 4 -> 5 -> 6 -> 7
^ /
`----------------'
And a later pass through get_group(4, sdd@MC) will "corrupt" that to:
3 -> 4 -> 5 -> 6 -> 7
^ /
`-----------'
which will completely break things like 'while (sg != sd->groups)' when
using CPU3's base sched_domain.
There already are some architecture-specific checks in place such as
x86/kernel/smpboot.c::topology.sane(), but this is something we can detect
in the core scheduler, so it seems worthwhile to do so.
Warn and abort the construction of the sched domains if such a broken
topology description is detected. Note that this is somewhat
expensive (O(t.c²), 't' non-NUMA topology levels and 'c' CPUs) and could be
gated under SCHED_DEBUG if deemed necessary.

With commit
bef69dd87828 ("sched/cpufreq: Move the cfs_rq_util_change() call to cpufreq_update_util()")
update_load_avg() has become the central point for calling cpufreq
(not including the update of blocked load). This change helps to
simplify further the number of calls to cpufreq_update_util() and to
remove last redundant ones. With update_load_avg(), we are now sure
that cpufreq_update_util() will be called after every task attachment
to a cfs_rq and especially after propagating this event down to the
util_avg of the root cfs_rq, which is the level that is used by
cpufreq governors like schedutil to set the frequency of a CPU.
The SCHED_CPUFREQ_MIGRATION flag forces an early call to cpufreq when
the migration happens in a cgroup whereas util_avg of root cfs_rq is
not yet updated and this call is duplicated with the one that happens
immediately after when the migration event reaches the root cfs_rq.
The dedicated flag SCHED_CPUFREQ_MIGRATION is now useless and can be
removed. The interface of attach_entity_load_avg() can also be
simplified accordingly.

commit bf475ce0a3dd ("sched/fair: Add per-CPU min capacity to
sched_group_capacity") introduced per-cpu min_capacity.
commit e3d6d0cb66f2 ("sched/fair: Add sched_group per-CPU max capacity")
introduced per-cpu max_capacity.
In the SD_OVERLAP case, the local variable 'capacity' represents the sum
of CPU capacity of all CPUs in the first sched group (sg) of the sched
domain (sd).
It is erroneously used to calculate sg's min and max CPU capacity.
To fix this use capacity_of(cpu) instead of 'capacity'.
The code which achieves this via cpu_rq(cpu)->sd->groups->sgc->capacity
(for rq->sd != NULL) can be removed since it delivers the same value as
capacity_of(cpu) which is currently only used for the (!rq->sd) case
(see update_cpu_capacity()).
An sg of the lowest sd (rq->sd or sd->child == NULL) represents a single
CPU (and hence sg->sgc->capacity == capacity_of(cpu)).

When a new cgroup is created, the effective uclamp value wasn't updated
with a call to cpu_util_update_eff() that looks at the hierarchy and
update to the most restrictive values.
Fix it by ensuring to call cpu_util_update_eff() when a new cgroup
becomes online.
Without this change, the newly created cgroup uses the default
root_task_group uclamp values, which is 1024 for both uclamp_{min, max},
which will cause the rq to to be clamped to max, hence cause the
system to run at max frequency.
The problem was observed on Ubuntu server and was reproduced on Debian
and Buildroot rootfs.
By default, Ubuntu and Debian create a cpu controller cgroup hierarchy
and add all tasks to it - which creates enough noise to keep the rq
uclamp value at max most of the time. Imitating this behavior makes the
problem visible in Buildroot too which otherwise looks fine since it's a
minimal userspace.

The fair scheduler performs periodic load balance on every CPU to check
if it can pull some tasks from other busy CPUs. The duration of this
periodic load balance is set to sd->balance_interval for the idle CPUs
and is calculated by multiplying the sd->balance_interval with the
sd->busy_factor (set to 32 by default) for the busy CPUs. The
multiplication is done for busy CPUs to avoid doing load balance too
often and rather spend more time executing actual task. While that is
the right thing to do for the CPUs busy with SCHED_OTHER or SCHED_BATCH
tasks, it may not be the optimal thing for CPUs running only SCHED_IDLE
tasks.
With the recent enhancements in the fair scheduler around SCHED_IDLE
CPUs, we now prefer to enqueue a newly-woken task to a SCHED_IDLE
CPU instead of other busy or idle CPUs. The same reasoning should be
applied to the load balancer as well to make it migrate tasks more
aggressively to a SCHED_IDLE CPU, as that will reduce the scheduling
latency of the migrated (SCHED_OTHER) tasks.
This patch makes minimal changes to the fair scheduler to do the next
load balance soon after the last non SCHED_IDLE task is dequeued from a
runqueue, i.e. making the CPU SCHED_IDLE. Also the sd->busy_factor is
ignored while calculating the balance_interval for such CPUs. This is
done to avoid delaying the periodic load balance by few hundred
milliseconds for SCHED_IDLE CPUs.
This is tested on ARM64 Hikey620 platform (octa-core) with the help of
rt-app and it is verified, using kernel traces, that the newly
SCHED_IDLE CPU does load balancing shortly after it becomes SCHED_IDLE
and pulls tasks from other busy CPUs.

Similarly to calculate_imbalance() and find_busiest_group(), using the
number of idle CPUs when there is only 1 CPU in the group is not efficient
because we can't make a difference between a CPU running 1 task and a CPU
running dozens of small tasks competing for the same CPU but not enough
to overload it. More generally speaking, we should use the number of
running tasks when there is the same number of idle CPUs in a group instead
of blindly select the 1st one.
When the groups have spare capacity and the same number of idle CPUs, we
compare the number of running tasks to select the busiest group.

Since the bulk queue used by XDP_REDIRECT now lives in struct net_device,
we can re-use the bulking for the non-map version of the bpf_redirect()
helper. This is a simple matter of having xdp_do_redirect_slow() queue the
frame on the bulk queue instead of sending it out with __bpf_tx_xdp().
Unfortunately we can't make the bpf_redirect() helper return an error if
the ifindex doesn't exit (as bpf_redirect_map() does), because we don't
have a reference to the network namespace of the ingress device at the time
the helper is called. So we have to leave it as-is and keep the device
lookup in xdp_do_redirect_slow().
Since this leaves less reason to have the non-map redirect code in a
separate function, so we get rid of the xdp_do_redirect_slow() function
entirely. This does lose us the tracepoint disambiguation, but fortunately
the xdp_redirect and xdp_redirect_map tracepoints use the same tracepoint
entry structures. This means both can contain a map index, so we can just
amend the tracepoint definitions so we always emit the xdp_redirect(_err)
tracepoints, but with the map ID only populated if a map is present. This
means we retire the xdp_redirect_map(_err) tracepoints entirely, but keep
the definitions around in case someone is still listening for them.
With this change, the performance of the xdp_redirect sample program goes
from 5Mpps to 8.4Mpps (a 68% increase).
Since the flush functions are no longer map-specific, rename the flush()
functions to drop _map from their names. One of the renamed functions is
the xdp_do_flush_map() callback used in all the xdp-enabled drivers. To
keep from having to update all drivers, use a #define to keep the old name
working, and only update the virtual drivers in this patch.

Commit 96360004b862 ("xdp: Make devmap flush_list common for all map
instances"), changed devmap flushing to be a global operation instead of a
per-map operation. However, the queue structure used for bulking was still
allocated as part of the containing map.
This patch moves the devmap bulk queue into struct net_device. The
motivation for this is reusing it for the non-map variant of XDP_REDIRECT,
which will be changed in a subsequent commit. To avoid other fields of
struct net_device moving to different cache lines, we also move a couple of
other members around.
We defer the actual allocation of the bulk queue structure until the
NETDEV_REGISTER notification devmap.c. This makes it possible to check for
ndo_xdp_xmit support before allocating the structure, which is not possible
at the time struct net_device is allocated. However, we keep the freeing in
free_netdev() to avoid adding another RCU callback on NETDEV_UNREGISTER.
Because of this change, we lose the reference back to the map that
originated the redirect, so change the tracepoint to always return 0 as the
map ID and index. Otherwise no functional change is intended with this
patch.
After this patch, the relevant part of struct net_device looks like this,

The sysfs attribute `/sys/power/sync_on_suspend` controls, whether or not
filesystems are synced by the kernel before system suspend.
Congruously, the behaviour of build-time switch CONFIG_SUSPEND_SKIP_SYNC
is slightly changed: It now defines the run-tim default for the new sysfs
attribute `/sys/power/sync_on_suspend`.
The run-time attribute is added because the existing corresponding
build-time Kconfig flag for (`CONFIG_SUSPEND_SKIP_SYNC`) is not flexible
enough. E.g. Linux distributions that provide pre-compiled kernels
usually want to stick with the default (sync filesystems before suspend)
but under special conditions this needs to be changed.
One example for such a special condition is user-space handling of
suspending block devices (e.g. using `cryptsetup luksSuspend` or `dmsetup
suspend`) before system suspend. The Kernel trying to sync filesystems
after the underlying block device already got suspended obviously leads
to dead-locks. Be aware that you have to take care of the filesystem sync
yourself before suspending the system in those scenarios.

trace_printk() is used to debug the kernel which includes the tracing
infrastructure. But because it writes to the ring buffer, and so does much
of the tracing infrastructure, the ring buffer's recursive detection will
drop writes to the ring buffer that is in the same context as the current
write is happening (it allows interrupts to write when normal context is
writing, but wont let normal context write while normal context is writing).
This can cause confusion and think that the code is where the trace_printk()
exists is not hit. To solve this, up the recursive nesting of the ring
buffer when trace_printk() is called before it writes to the buffer itself.
Note, this does make it dangerous to use trace_printk() in the ring buffer
code itself, because this basically disables the recursion protection of
trace_printk() buffer writes. But as trace_printk() is only used for
debugging, and if this does occur, the developer will see the cause real
quick (recursive blowing up of the stack). Thus the developer can deal with
that. But having trace_printk() silently ignored is a much bigger problem,
and disabling recursive protection is a small price to pay to fix it.
