The Energy Model (EM) provides useful information about device power in
each performance state to other subsystems like: Energy Aware Scheduler
(EAS). The energy calculation in EAS does arithmetic operation based on
the EM em_cpu_energy(). Current implementation of that function uses
em_perf_state::cost as a pre-computed cost coefficient equal to:
cost = power * max_frequency / frequency.
The 'power' is expressed in milli-Watts (or in abstract scale).
There are corner cases when the EAS energy calculation for two Performance
Domains (PDs) return the same value. The EAS compares these values to
choose smaller one. It might happen that this values are equal due to
rounding error. In such scenario, we need better resolution, e.g. 1000
times better. To provide this possibility increase the resolution in the
em_perf_state::cost for 64-bit architectures. The cost of increasing
resolution on 32-bit is pretty high (64-bit division) and is not justified
since there are no new 32bit big.LITTLE EAS systems expected which would
benefit from this higher resolution.
This patch allows to avoid the rounding to milli-Watt errors, which might
occur in EAS energy estimation for each PD. The rounding error is common
for small tasks which have small utilization value.
There are two places in the code where it makes a difference:
1. In the find_energy_efficient_cpu() where we are searching for
best_delta. We might suffer there when two PDs return the same result,
like in the example below.
Scenario:
Low utilized system e.g. ~200 sum_util for PD0 and ~220 for PD1. There
are quite a few small tasks ~10-15 util. These tasks would suffer for
the rounding error. These utilization values are typical when running games
on Android. One of our partners has reported 5..10mA less battery drain
when running with increased resolution.
Some details:
We have two PDs: PD0 (big) and PD1 (little)
Let's compare w/o patch set ('old') and w/ patch set ('new')
We are comparing energy w/ task and w/o task placed in the PDs
a) 'old' w/o patch set, PD0
task_util = 13
cost = 480
sum_util_w/o_task = 215
sum_util_w_task = 228
scale_cpu = 1024
energy_w/o_task = 480 * 215 / 1024 = 100.78 => 100
energy_w_task = 480 * 228 / 1024 = 106.87 => 106
energy_diff = 106 - 100 = 6
(this is equal to 'old' PD1's energy_diff in 'c)')
b) 'new' w/ patch set, PD0
task_util = 13
cost = 480 * 1000 = 480000
sum_util_w/o_task = 215
sum_util_w_task = 228
energy_w/o_task = 480000 * 215 / 1024 = 100781
energy_w_task = 480000 * 228 / 1024 = 106875
energy_diff = 106875 - 100781 = 6094
(this is not equal to 'new' PD1's energy_diff in 'd)')
c) 'old' w/o patch set, PD1
task_util = 13
cost = 160
sum_util_w/o_task = 283
sum_util_w_task = 293
scale_cpu = 355
energy_w/o_task = 160 * 283 / 355 = 127.55 => 127
energy_w_task = 160 * 296 / 355 = 133.41 => 133
energy_diff = 133 - 127 = 6
(this is equal to 'old' PD0's energy_diff in 'a)')
d) 'new' w/ patch set, PD1
task_util = 13
cost = 160 * 1000 = 160000
sum_util_w/o_task = 283
sum_util_w_task = 293
scale_cpu = 355
energy_w/o_task = 160000 * 283 / 355 = 127549
energy_w_task = 160000 * 296 / 355 = 133408
energy_diff = 133408 - 127549 = 5859
(this is not equal to 'new' PD0's energy_diff in 'b)')
2. Difference in the 6% energy margin filter at the end of
find_energy_efficient_cpu(). With this patch the margin comparison also
has better resolution, so it's possible to have better task placement
thanks to that.

SCHED_FLAG_KEEP_PARAMS can be passed to sched_setattr to specify that
the call must not touch scheduling parameters (nice or priority). This
is particularly handy for uclamp when used in conjunction with
SCHED_FLAG_KEEP_POLICY as that allows to issue a syscall that only
impacts uclamp values.
However, sched_setattr always checks whether the priorities and nice
values passed in sched_attr are valid first, even if those never get
used down the line. This is useless at best since userspace can
trivially bypass this check to set the uclamp values by specifying low
priorities. However, it is cumbersome to do so as there is no single
expression of this that skips both RT and CFS checks at once. As such,
userspace needs to query the task policy first with e.g. sched_getattr
and then set sched_attr.sched_priority accordingly. This is racy and
slower than a single call.
As the priority and nice checks are useless when SCHED_FLAG_KEEP_PARAMS
is specified, simply inherit them in this case to match the policy
inheritance of SCHED_FLAG_KEEP_POLICY.

The UCLAMP_FLAG_IDLE flag is set on a runqueue when dequeueing the last
uclamp active task (that is, when buckets.tasks reaches 0 for all
buckets) to maintain the last uclamp.max and prevent blocked util from
suddenly becoming visible.
However, there is an asymmetry in how the flag is set and cleared which
can lead to having the flag set whilst there are active tasks on the rq.
Specifically, the flag is cleared in the uclamp_rq_inc() path, which is
called at enqueue time, but set in uclamp_rq_dec_id() which is called
both when dequeueing a task _and_ in the update_uclamp_active() path. As
a result, when both uclamp_rq_{dec,ind}_id() are called from
update_uclamp_active(), the flag ends up being set but not cleared,
hence leaving the runqueue in a broken state.
Fix this by clearing the flag in update_uclamp_active() as well.

On a 1->0->1 callbacks transition, there is an issue with the new
callback using the old callback's data.
Considering __DO_TRACE_CALL:
do { \
struct tracepoint_func *it_func_ptr; \
void *__data; \
it_func_ptr = \
rcu_dereference_raw((&__tracepoint_##name)->funcs); \
if (it_func_ptr) { \
__data = (it_func_ptr)->data; \
----> [ delayed here on one CPU (e.g. vcpu preempted by the host) ]
static_call(tp_func_##name)(__data, args); \
} \
} while (0)
It has loaded the tp->funcs of the old callback, so it will try to use the old
data. This can be fixed by adding a RCU sync anywhere in the 1->0->1
transition chain.
On a N->2->1 transition, we need an rcu-sync because you may have a
sequence of 3->2->1 (or 1->2->1) where the element 0 data is unchanged
between 2->1, but was changed from 3->2 (or from 1->2), which may be
observed by the static call. This can be fixed by adding an
unconditional RCU sync in transition 2->1.
Note, this fixes a correctness issue at the cost of adding a tremendous
performance regression to the disabling of tracepoints.
Before this commit:
# trace-cmd start -e all
# time trace-cmd start -p nop
real 0m0.778s
user 0m0.000s
sys 0m0.061s
After this commit:
# trace-cmd start -e all
# time trace-cmd start -p nop
real 0m10.593s
user 0m0.017s
sys 0m0.259s
A follow up fix will introduce a more lightweight scheme based on RCU
get_state and cond_sync, that will return the performance back to what it
was. As both this change and the lightweight versions are complex on their
own, for bisecting any issues that this may cause, they are kept as two
separate changes.

On transition from 2->1 callees, we should be comparing .data rather
than .func, because the same callback can be registered twice with
different data, and what we care about here is that the data of array
element 0 is unchanged to skip rcu sync.

The hardware latency detector (hwlat) has a mode that it runs one thread
across CPUs. The logic to move from the currently running CPU to the next
one in the list does a smp_processor_id() to find where it currently is.
Unfortunately, it's done with preemption enabled, and this triggers a
warning for using smp_processor_id() in a preempt enabled section.
As it is only using smp_processor_id() to get information on where it
currently is in order to simply move it to the next CPU, it doesn't really
care if it got moved in the mean time. It will simply balance out later if
such a case arises.
Switch smp_processor_id() to raw_smp_processor_id() to quiet that warning.

When working on my user space applications, I found a bug in the synthetic
event code where the automated synthetic event field was not matching the
event field calculation it was attached to. Looking deeper into it, it was
because the calculation hist_field was not given a size.
The synthetic event fields are matched to their hist_fields either by
having the field have an identical string type, or if that does not match,
then the size and signed values are used to match the fields.
The problem arose when I tried to match a calculation where the fields
were "unsigned int". My tool created a synthetic event of type "u32". But
it failed to match. The string was:
diff=field1-field2:onmatch(event).trace(synth,$diff)
Adding debugging into the kernel, I found that the size of "diff" was 0.
And since it was given "unsigned int" as a type, the histogram fallback
code used size and signed. The signed matched, but the size of u32 (4) did
not match zero, and the event failed to be created.
This can be worse if the field you want to match is not one of the
acceptable fields for a synthetic event. As event fields can have any type
that is supported in Linux, this can cause an issue. For example, if a
type is an enum. Then there's no way to use that with any calculations.
Have the calculation field simply take on the size of what it is
calculating.

After select_idle_sibling, p->recent_used_cpu is set to the
new target. However on the next wakeup, prev will be the same as
recent_used_cpu unless the load balancer has moved the task since the
last wakeup. It still works, but is less efficient than it could be.
This patch preserves recent_used_cpu for longer.
The impact on SIS efficiency is tiny so the SIS statistic patches were
used to track the hit rate for using recent_used_cpu. With perf bench
pipe on a 2-socket Cascadelake machine, the hit rate went from 57.14%
to 85.32%. For more intensive wakeup loads like hackbench, the hit rate
is almost negligible but rose from 0.21% to 6.64%. For scaling loads
like tbench, the hit rate goes from almost 0% to 25.42% overall. Broadly
speaking, on tbench, the success rate is much higher for lower thread
counts and drops to almost 0 as the workload scales to towards saturation.

It is possible for sched_getattr() to incorrectly report the state of
the reset_on_fork flag when called on a deadline task.
Indeed, if the flag was set on a deadline task using sched_setattr()
with flags (SCHED_FLAG_RESET_ON_FORK | SCHED_FLAG_KEEP_PARAMS), then
p->sched_reset_on_fork will be set, but __setscheduler() will bail out
early, which means that the dl_se->flags will not get updated by
__setscheduler_params()->__setparam_dl(). Consequently, if
sched_getattr() is then called on the task, __getparam_dl() will
override kattr.sched_flags with the now out-of-date copy in dl_se->flags
and report the stale value to userspace.
To fix this, make sure to only copy the flags that are relevant to
sched_deadline to and from the dl_se->flags field.

__sched_setscheduler() uses rt_effective_prio() to handle proper queuing
of priority boosted tasks that are setscheduled while being boosted.
rt_effective_prio() is however called twice per each
__sched_setscheduler() call: first directly by __sched_setscheduler()
before dequeuing the task and then by __setscheduler() to actually do
the priority change. If the priority of the pi_top_task is concurrently
being changed however, it might happen that the two calls return
different results. If, for example, the first call returned the same rt
priority the task was running at and the second one a fair priority, the
task won't be removed by the rt list (on_list still set) and then
enqueued in the fair runqueue. When eventually setscheduled back to rt
it will be seen as enqueued already and the WARNING/BUG be issued.
Fix this by calling rt_effective_prio() only once and then reusing the
return value. While at it refactor code as well for clarity. Concurrent
priority inheritance handling is still safe and will eventually converge
to a new state by following the inheritance chain(s).

Implementing live patching on s390 requires each function's prologue to
contain a very special kind of nop, which gcc and clang don't generate.
However, the current code assumes that if CC_USING_NOP_MCOUNT is
defined, then whatever the compiler generates is good enough.
Move the CC_USING_NOP_MCOUNT check into the new ftrace_need_init_nop()
macro, that the architectures can override.
An alternative solution is to disable using -mnop-mcount in the
Makefile, however, this makes the build logic (even) more complicated
and forces the arch-specific code to deal with the useless __fentry__
symbol.

cycles_t has a different type across architectures: unsigned int,
unsinged long, or unsigned long long. Depending on architecture this
will generate this warning:
kernel/kcsan/debugfs.c: In function ‘microbenchmark’:
./include/linux/kern_levels.h:5:25: warning: format ‘%llu’ expects argument of type ‘long long unsigned int’, but argument 3 has type ‘cycles_t’ {aka ‘long unsigned int’} [-Wformat=]
To avoid this simply change the type of cycle to u64 in microbenchmark(),
since u64 is of type unsigned long long for all architectures.

To avoid kernel build failure due to some missing .BTF-ids referenced
functions/types, the patch ([1]) tries to fill btf_id 0 for
these types.
In bpf verifier, for percpu variable and helper returning btf_id cases,
verifier already emitted proper warning with something like
verbose(env, "Helper has invalid btf_id in R%d\n", regno);
verbose(env, "invalid return type %d of func %s#%d\n",
fn->ret_type, func_id_name(func_id), func_id);
But this is not the case for bpf_iter context arguments.
I hacked resolve_btfids to encode btf_id 0 for struct task_struct.
With `./test_progs -n 7/5`, I got,
0: (79) r2 = *(u64 *)(r1 +0)
func 'bpf_iter_task' arg0 has btf_id 29739 type STRUCT 'bpf_iter_meta'
; struct seq_file *seq = ctx->meta->seq;
1: (79) r6 = *(u64 *)(r2 +0)
; struct task_struct *task = ctx->task;
2: (79) r7 = *(u64 *)(r1 +8)
; if (task == (void *)0) {
3: (55) if r7 != 0x0 goto pc+11
...
; BPF_SEQ_PRINTF(seq, "%8d %8d\n", task->tgid, task->pid);
26: (61) r1 = *(u32 *)(r7 +1372)
Type '(anon)' is not a struct
Basically, verifier will return btf_id 0 for task_struct.
Later on, when the code tries to access task->tgid, the
verifier correctly complains the type is '(anon)' and it is
not a struct. Users still need to backtrace to find out
what is going on.
Let us catch the invalid btf_id 0 earlier
and provide better message indicating btf_id is wrong.
The new error message looks like below:
R1 type=ctx expected=fp
; struct seq_file *seq = ctx->meta->seq;
0: (79) r2 = *(u64 *)(r1 +0)
func 'bpf_iter_task' arg0 has btf_id 29739 type STRUCT 'bpf_iter_meta'
; struct seq_file *seq = ctx->meta->seq;
1: (79) r6 = *(u64 *)(r2 +0)

2: (79) r7 = *(u64 *)(r1 +8)

console_verbose() increases console loglevel to
CONSOLE_LOGLEVEL_MOTORMOUTH, which provides more information
to debug a panic/oops.
Unfortunately, in Arista we maintain some DUTs (Device Under Test) that
are configured to have 9600 baud rate. While verbose console messages
have their value to post-analyze crashes, on such setup they:
- may prevent panic/oops messages being printed
- take too long to flush on console resulting in watchdog reboot
In all our setups we use kdump which saves dmesg buffer after panic,
so in reality those extra messages on console provide no additional value,
but rather add risk of not getting to __crash_kexec().
Provide printk.console_no_auto_verbose boot parameter, which allows
to switch off printk being verbose on oops/panic/lockdep.

Spectre v4 gadgets make use of memory disambiguation, which is a set of
techniques that execute memory access instructions, that is, loads and
stores, out of program order; Intel's optimization manual, section 2.4.4.5:
A load instruction micro-op may depend on a preceding store. Many
microarchitectures block loads until all preceding store addresses are
known. The memory disambiguator predicts which loads will not depend on
any previous stores. When the disambiguator predicts that a load does
not have such a dependency, the load takes its data from the L1 data
cache. Eventually, the prediction is verified. If an actual conflict is
detected, the load and all succeeding instructions are re-executed.
af86ca4e3088 ("bpf: Prevent memory disambiguation attack") tried to mitigate
this attack by sanitizing the memory locations through preemptive "fast"
(low latency) stores of zero prior to the actual "slow" (high latency) store
of a pointer value such that upon dependency misprediction the CPU then
speculatively executes the load of the pointer value and retrieves the zero
value instead of the attacker controlled scalar value previously stored at
that location, meaning, subsequent access in the speculative domain is then
redirected to the "zero page".
The sanitized preemptive store of zero prior to the actual "slow" store is
done through a simple ST instruction based on r10 (frame pointer) with
relative offset to the stack location that the verifier has been tracking
on the original used register for STX, which does not have to be r10. Thus,
there are no memory dependencies for this store, since it's only using r10
and immediate constant of zero; hence af86ca4e3088 /assumed/ a low latency
operation.
However, a recent attack demonstrated that this mitigation is not sufficient
since the preemptive store of zero could also be turned into a "slow" store
and is thus bypassed as well:
[...]
// r2 = oob address (e.g. scalar)
// r7 = pointer to map value
31: (7b) *(u64 *)(r10 -16) = r2
// r9 will remain "fast" register, r10 will become "slow" register below
32: (bf) r9 = r10
// JIT maps BPF reg to x86 reg:
// r9 -> r15 (callee saved)
// r10 -> rbp
// train store forward prediction to break dependency link between both r9
// and r10 by evicting them from the predictor's LRU table.

551: (7a) *(u64 *)(r10 -16) = 0 | /both/ are now slow stores here
// storing map value pointer r7 at fp-16 | since value of r10 is "slow".
552: (7b) *(u64 *)(r10 -16) = r7 /
// following "fast" read to the same memory location, but due to dependency
// misprediction it will speculatively execute before insn 551/552 completes.
553: (79) r2 = *(u64 *)(r9 -16)
// in speculative domain contains attacker controlled r2. in non-speculative
// domain this contains r7, and thus accesses r7 +0 below.
554: (71) r3 = *(u8 *)(r2 +0)
// leak r3
As can be seen, the current speculative store bypass mitigation which the
verifier inserts at line 551 is insufficient since /both/, the write of
the zero sanitation as well as the map value pointer are a high latency
instruction due to prior memory access via push/pop of r10 (rbp) in contrast
to the low latency read in line 553 as r9 (r15) which stays in hardware
registers. Thus, architecturally, fp-16 is r7, however, microarchitecturally,
fp-16 can still be r2.
Initial thoughts to address this issue was to track spilled pointer loads
from stack and enforce their load via LDX through r10 as well so that /both/
the preemptive store of zero /as well as/ the load use the /same/ register
such that a dependency is created between the store and load. However, this
option is not sufficient either since it can be bypassed as well under
speculation. An updated attack with pointer spill/fills now _all_ based on
r10 would look as follows:
[...]
// r2 = oob address (e.g. scalar)
// r7 = pointer to map value
[...]
// longer store forward prediction training sequence than before.

2100: (7b) *(u64 *)(r10 -16) = r7 | since store unit is still busy.

2101: (79) r2 = *(u64 *)(r10 -16)
2102: (71) r3 = *(u8 *)(r2 +0)
// leak r3
[...]
Looking at the CPU microarchitecture, the scheduler might issue loads (such
as seen in line 2101) before stores (line 2099,2100) because the load execution
units become available while the store execution unit is still busy with the
sequence of dummy stores (line 2069-2098). And so the load may use the prior
stored scalar from r2 at address r10 -16 for speculation. The updated attack
may work less reliable on CPU microarchitectures where loads and stores share
execution resources.
This concludes that the sanitizing with zero stores from af86ca4e3088 ("bpf:
Prevent memory disambiguation attack") is insufficient. Moreover, the detection
of stack reuse from af86ca4e3088 where previously data (STACK_MISC) has been
written to a given stack slot where a pointer value is now to be stored does
not have sufficient coverage as precondition for the mitigation either; for
several reasons outlined as follows:
1) Stack content from prior program runs could still be preserved and is
therefore not "random", best example is to split a speculative store
bypass attack between tail calls, program A would prepare and store the
oob address at a given stack slot and then tail call into program B which
does the "slow" store of a pointer to the stack with subsequent "fast"
read. From program B PoV such stack slot type is STACK_INVALID, and
therefore also must be subject to mitigation.
2) The STACK_SPILL must not be coupled to register_is_const(&stack->spilled_ptr)
condition, for example, the previous content of that memory location could
also be a pointer to map or map value. Without the fix, a speculative
store bypass is not mitigated in such precondition and can then lead to
a type confusion in the speculative domain leaking kernel memory near
these pointer types.
While brainstorming on various alternative mitigation possibilities, we also
stumbled upon a retrospective from Chrome developers [0]:
[...] For variant 4, we implemented a mitigation to zero the unused memory
of the heap prior to allocation, which cost about 1% when done concurrently
and 4% for scavenging. Variant 4 defeats everything we could think of. We
explored more mitigations for variant 4 but the threat proved to be more
pervasive and dangerous than we anticipated. For example, stack slots used
by the register allocator in the optimizing compiler could be subject to
type confusion, leading to pointer crafting. Mitigating type confusion for
stack slots alone would have required a complete redesign of the backend of
the optimizing compiler, perhaps man years of work, without a guarantee of
completeness. [...]
From BPF side, the problem space is reduced, however, options are rather
limited. One idea that has been explored was to xor-obfuscate pointer spills
to the BPF stack:
[...]
// preoccupy the CPU store port by running sequence of dummy stores.
[...]

While the above would not prevent speculation, it would make data leakage
infeasible by directing it to random locations. In order to be effective
and prevent type confusion under speculation, such random secret would have
to be regenerated for each store. The additional complexity involved for a
tracking mechanism that prevents jumps such that restoring spilled pointers
would not get corrupted is not worth the gain for unprivileged. Hence, the
fix in here eventually opted for emitting a non-public BPF_ST | BPF_NOSPEC
instruction which the x86 JIT translates into a lfence opcode. Inserting the
latter in between the store and load instruction is one of the mitigations
options [1]. The x86 instruction manual notes:
[...] An LFENCE that follows an instruction that stores to memory might
complete before the data being stored have become globally visible. [...]
The latter meaning that the preceding store instruction finished execution
and the store is at minimum guaranteed to be in the CPU's store queue, but
it's not guaranteed to be in that CPU's L1 cache at that point (globally
visible). The latter would only be guaranteed via sfence. So the load which
is guaranteed to execute after the lfence for that local CPU would have to
rely on store-to-load forwarding. [2], in section 2.3 on store buffers says:
[...] For every store operation that is added to the ROB, an entry is
allocated in the store buffer. This entry requires both the virtual and
physical address of the target. Only if there is no free entry in the store
buffer, the frontend stalls until there is an empty slot available in the
store buffer again. Otherwise, the CPU can immediately continue adding
subsequent instructions to the ROB and execute them out of order. On Intel
CPUs, the store buffer has up to 56 entries. [...]
One small upside on the fix is that it lifts constraints from af86ca4e3088
where the sanitize_stack_off relative to r10 must be the same when coming
from different paths. The BPF_ST | BPF_NOSPEC gets emitted after a BPF_STX
or BPF_ST instruction. This happens either when we store a pointer or data
value to the BPF stack for the first time, or upon later pointer spills.
The former needs to be enforced since otherwise stale stack data could be
leaked under speculation as outlined earlier. For non-x86 JITs the BPF_ST |
BPF_NOSPEC mapping is currently optimized away, but others could emit a
speculation barrier as well if necessary. For real-world unprivileged
programs e.g. generated by LLVM, pointer spill/fill is only generated upon
register pressure and LLVM only tries to do that for pointers which are not
used often. The program main impact will be the initial BPF_ST | BPF_NOSPEC
sanitation for the STACK_INVALID case when the first write to a stack slot
occurs e.g. upon map lookup. In future we might refine ways to mitigate
the latter cost.

In case of JITs, each of the JIT backends compiles the BPF nospec instruction
/either/ to a machine instruction which emits a speculation barrier /or/ to
/no/ machine instruction in case the underlying architecture is not affected
by Speculative Store Bypass or has different mitigations in place already.
This covers both x86 and (implicitly) arm64: In case of x86, we use 'lfence'
instruction for mitigation. In case of arm64, we rely on the firmware mitigation
as controlled via the ssbd kernel parameter. Whenever the mitigation is enabled,
it works for all of the kernel code with no need to provide any additional
instructions here (hence only comment in arm64 JIT). Other archs can follow
as needed. The BPF nospec instruction is specifically targeting Spectre v4
since i) we don't use a serialization barrier for the Spectre v1 case, and
ii) mitigation instructions for v1 and v4 might be different on some archs.
The BPF nospec is required for a future commit, where the BPF verifier does
annotate intermediate BPF programs with speculation barriers.

- The race fix has two parts.
* Changing the code to guarantee that ucounts->count is only decremented
when ucounts_lock is held. This guarantees that find_ucounts
will never find a structure with a zero reference count.
* Changing alloc_ucounts to increment ucounts->count while
ucounts_lock is held. This guarantees the reference count on the
found data structure will not be decremented to zero (and the data
structure freed) before the reference count is incremented.

0fa294fb1985 ("cgroup: Replace cgroup_rstat_mutex with a spinlock") added
cgroup_rstat_flush_irqsafe() allowing flushing to happen from the irq
context. However, rstat paths use u64_stats_sync to synchronize access to
64bit stat counters on 32bit machines. u64_stats_sync is implemented using
seq_lock and trying to read from an irq context can lead to A-A deadlock if
the irq happens to interrupt the stat update.
Fix it by using the irqsafe variants - u64_stats_update_begin_irqsave() and
u64_stats_update_end_irqrestore() - in the update paths. Note that none of
this matters on 64bit machines. All these are just for 32bit SMP setups.
Note that the interface was introduced way back, its first and currently
only use was recently added by 2d146aa3aa84 ("mm: memcontrol: switch to
rstat"). Stable tagging targets this commit.

Current max cgroup storage value size is 4k (PAGE_SIZE). The other local
storages accept up to 64k (BPF_LOCAL_STORAGE_MAX_VALUE_SIZE). Let's align
max cgroup value size with the other storages.
For percpu, the max is 32k (PCPU_MIN_UNIT_SIZE) because percpu
allocator is not happy about larger values.
netcnt test is extended to exercise those maximum values
(non-percpu max size is close to, but not real max).

syzbot reported KCSAN data races vs. timer_base::timer_running being set to
NULL without holding base::lock in expire_timers().
This looks innocent and most reads are clearly not problematic, but
Frederic identified an issue which is:
int data = 0;
void timer_func(struct timer_list *t)
{
data = 1;
}
CPU 0 CPU 1
------------------------------ --------------------------
base = lock_timer_base(timer, &flags); raw_spin_unlock(&base->lock);
if (base->running_timer != timer) call_timer_fn(timer, fn, baseclk);
ret = detach_if_pending(timer, base, true); base->running_timer = NULL;
raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore(&base->lock, flags); raw_spin_lock(&base->lock);
x = data;
If the timer has previously executed on CPU 1 and then CPU 0 can observe
base->running_timer == NULL and returns, assuming the timer has completed,
but it's not guaranteed on all architectures. The comment for
del_timer_sync() makes that guarantee. Moving the assignment under
base->lock prevents this.
For non-RT kernel it's performance wise completely irrelevant whether the
store happens before or after taking the lock. For an RT kernel moving the
store under the lock requires an extra unlock/lock pair in the case that
there is a waiter for the timer, but that's not the end of the world.

When scftorture finds an error in the module parameters controlling
the relative frequencies of smp_call_function*() variants, it takes an
early exit. So early that it has not allocated memory to track the
kthreads running the test, which results in a segfault. This commit
therefore checks for the existence of the memory before attempting
to stop the kthreads that would otherwise have been recorded in that
non-existent memory.

This commit adds the single_weight_rpc module parameter, which causes the
IPI handler to awaken the IPI sender. In many scheduler configurations,
this will result in an IPI back to the sender that is likely to be
received at a time when the sender CPU is idle. The intent is to stress
IPI reception during CPU busy-to-idle transitions.

Currently, the lock_is_read_held variable is bool, so that a reader sets
it to true just after lock acquisition and then to false just before
lock release. This works in a rough statistical sense, but can result
in false negatives just after one of a pair of concurrent readers has
released the lock. This approach does have low overhead, but at the
expense of the setting to true potentially never leaving the reader's
store buffer, thus resulting in an unconditional false negative.
This commit therefore converts this variable to atomic_t and makes
the reader use atomic_inc() just after acquisition and atomic_dec()
just before release. This does increase overhead, but this increase is
negligible compared to the 10-microsecond lock hold time.

The lock_stress_stats structure's ->n_lock_fail and ->n_lock_acquired
fields are incremented and sampled locklessly using plain C-language
statements, which KCSAN objects to. This commit therefore marks the
statistics gathering with data_race() to flag the intent. While in
the area, this commit also reduces the number of accesses to the
->n_lock_acquired field, thus eliminating some possible check/use
confusion.

The rcuscale console output claims N grace periods, numbered from zero
to N, which means that there were really N+1 grace periods. The root
cause of this bug is that rcu_scale_writer() stores the number of the
last grace period (numbered from zero) into writer_n_durations[me]
instead of the number of grace periods. This commit therefore assigns
the actual number of grace periods to writer_n_durations[me], and also
makes the corresponding adjustment to the loop outputting per-grace-period
measurements.
Sample of old console output:
rcu-scale: writer 0 gps: 133
......
rcu-scale: 0 writer-duration: 0 44003961
rcu-scale: 0 writer-duration: 1 32003582
......
rcu-scale: 0 writer-duration: 132 28004391
rcu-scale: 0 writer-duration: 133 27996410
Sample of new console output:
rcu-scale: writer 0 gps: 134
......
rcu-scale: 0 writer-duration: 0 44003961
rcu-scale: 0 writer-duration: 1 32003582
......
rcu-scale: 0 writer-duration: 132 28004391

Currently, rcu_torture_stall() does a one-jiffy timed wait when
stall_cpu_block is set. This works, but emits a pointless splat in
CONFIG_PREEMPT=y kernels. This commit avoids this splat by instead
invoking preempt_schedule() in CONFIG_PREEMPT=y kernels.
This uses an admittedly ugly #ifdef, but abstracted approaches just
looked worse. A prettier approach would provide a preempt_schedule()
definition with a WARN_ON() for CONFIG_PREEMPT=n kernels, but this seems
quite silly.
