HZ never goes much further 1000 and a bit. And if we ever reach one tick

Lets stop maintaining this special case, just leave a paranoid check.

We don't actually hold the module_mutex when calling find_module_all
from module_kallsyms_lookup_name: that's because it's used by the oops
code and we don't want to deadlock.
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
callers though.

A recent fix to the shadow timestamp inadvertly broke the running time
accounting.
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).

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:

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

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);

The get_state_synchronize_rcu() and cond_synchronize_rcu() functions
allow polling for grace-period completion, with an actual wait for a
grace period occurring only when cond_synchronize_rcu() is called too
soon after the corresponding get_state_synchronize_rcu(). However,
these functions work only for vanilla RCU. This commit adds the
get_state_synchronize_sched() and cond_synchronize_sched(), which provide
the same capability for RCU-sched.

region_is_ram() looks up the iomem_resource table to check if
a target range is in RAM. However, it always returns with -1
due to invalid range checks. It always breaks the loop at the
first entry of the table.
Another issue is that it compares p->flags and flags, but it always
fails. flags is declared as int, which makes it as a negative value
with IORESOURCE_BUSY (0x80000000) set while p->flags is unsigned long.
Fix the range check and flags so that region_is_ram() works as
advertised.

Enabling locking-selftest in a VM guest may cause the following
kernel panic:
kernel BUG at .../kernel/locking/qspinlock_paravirt.h:137!
This is due to the fact that the pvqspinlock unlock function is
expecting either a _Q_LOCKED_VAL or _Q_SLOW_VAL in the lock
byte. This patch prevents that bug report by ignoring it when
debug_locks_silent is set. Otherwise, a warning will be printed

Make sure to stop tracing only once we are past a point where
all latency tracing events have been processed (irqs are not
enabled again). This has the slight advantage of capturing more
latency related events in the idle path, but most importantly it
makes sure that latency tracing doesn't get re-enabled
inadvertently when new events are coming in.
This makes the irqsoff latency tracer useful again, as we stop
capturing CPU sleep time as IRQ latency.

improve accuracy of timing in test_bpf and add two stress tests:
- {skb->data[0], get_smp_processor_id} repeated 2k times
- {skb->data[0], vlan_push} x 68 followed by {skb->data[0], vlan_pop} x 68
1st test is useful to test performance of JIT implementation of BPF_LD_ABS
together with BPF_CALL instructions.
2nd test is stressing skb_vlan_push/pop logic together with skb->data access
via BPF_LD_ABS insn which checks that re-caching of skb->data is done correctly.
In order to call bpf_skb_vlan_push() from test_bpf.ko have to add

3) $ 3999976 us | }
3) $ 3999979 us | } /* schedule */
As adding a single white space in case of 7-digit numbers, the format
could be unified easily as follows.
3) $ 2237472 us | }
3) | finish_task_switch() {
3) 0.364 us | _raw_spin_unlock_irq();

Akashi Takahiro was porting the stack tracer to arm64 and found some
issues with it. One was that it repeats the top function, due to the
stack frame added by the mcount caller and added by itself. This
was added when fentry came in, and before fentry created its own stack
frame. But x86's fentry now creates its own stack frame, and there's
no need to insert the function again.
This also cleans up the code a bit, where it doesn't need to do something
special for fentry, and doesn't include insertion of a duplicate
entry for the called function being traced.

Now that events only add time extends after it is committed, in case
an event comes in before it can discard the allocated event, the time
extend needs to be stored within the event. If the event is bigger
than then size needed for the time extend, padding must be added.
The minimum padding size is 8 bytes. Thus if the event is 12 bytes
(size of time extend + 4), there will not be enough room to add both
the time extend and padding. Make sure all events are either 8 bytes
or 16 or more bytes.

Move the capturing of the timestamp to after an event is allocated.
If the event is not a commit (where it is an event that preempted
another event), then no timestamp is needed, because the delta of
nested events is always zero.
If the event starts on a new page, no delta needs to be calculated
as the full timestamp will be added to the page header, and the
event will have a delta of zero.
Now if the event requires a time extend (the delta does not fit
in the 27 bit delta slot in the header), then the event is discarded,
the length is extended to hold the TIME_EXTEND event that allows for
a 59 bit delta, and the commit is tried again.
If the event can't be discarded (another event came in after it),
then the TIME_EXTEND is added directly to the allocated event and
the rest of the event is given padding.

Although futexes are well known for being a royal pita,
we really have very little debugging capabilities - except
for relying on tglx's eye half the time.
By simply making use of the existing fault-injection machinery,
we can improve this situation, allowing generating artificial
uaddress faults and deadlock scenarios. Of course, when this is
disabled in production systems, the overhead for failure checks
is practically zero -- so this is very cheap at the same time.
Future work would be nice to now enhance trinity to make use of
this.
There is a special tunable 'ignore-private', which can filter
out private futexes. Given the tsk->make_it_fail filter and
this option, pi futexes can be narrowed down pretty closely.

Pull x86 fixes from Ingo Molnar:
"Two families of fixes:
- Fix an FPU context related boot crash on newer x86 hardware with
larger context sizes than what most people test. To fix this
without ugly kludges or extensive reverts we had to touch core task
allocator, to allow x86 to determine the task size dynamically, at
boot time.
I've tested it on a number of x86 platforms, and I cross-built it
to a handful of architectures:
(warns) (warns)
testing x86-64: -git: pass ( 0), -tip: pass ( 0)
testing x86-32: -git: pass ( 0), -tip: pass ( 0)
testing arm: -git: pass ( 1359), -tip: pass ( 1359)
testing cris: -git: pass ( 1031), -tip: pass ( 1031)
testing m32r: -git: pass ( 1135), -tip: pass ( 1135)
testing m68k: -git: pass ( 1471), -tip: pass ( 1471)
testing mips: -git: pass ( 1162), -tip: pass ( 1162)
testing mn10300: -git: pass ( 1058), -tip: pass ( 1058)
testing parisc: -git: pass ( 1846), -tip: pass ( 1846)
testing sparc: -git: pass ( 1185), -tip: pass ( 1185)
... so I hope the cross-arch impact 'none', as intended.

- Fix various NMI handling related bugs unearthed by the big asm code
rewrite and generally make the NMI code more robust and more
maintainable while at it. These changes are a bit late in the
cycle, I hope they are still acceptable.

Don't burden architectures without dynamic task_struct sizing
with the overhead of dynamic sizing.
Also optimize the x86 code a bit by caching task_struct_size.

The FPU rewrite removed the dynamic allocations of 'struct fpu'.
But, this potentially wastes massive amounts of memory (2k per
task on systems that do not have AVX-512 for instance).
Instead of having a separate slab, this patch just appends the
space that we need to the 'task_struct' which we dynamically
allocate already. This saves from doing an extra slab
allocation at fork().
The only real downside here is that we have to stick everything
and the end of the task_struct. But, I think the
BUILD_BUG_ON()s I stuck in there should keep that from being too
fragile.

In the common case, there will be only one expedited grace period in
the system at a given time, in which case it is not helpful to use
funnel locking. This commit therefore adds a fastpath that bypasses
funnel locking when the root ->exp_funnel_mutex is not held.

The grace-period kthread sleeps waiting to do a force-quiescent-state
scan, and when awakened sets rsp->gp_state to RCU_GP_DONE_FQS.
However, this is confusing because the kthread has not done the
force-quiescent-state, but is instead just starting to do it. This commit
therefore renames RCU_GP_DONE_FQS to RCU_GP_DOING_FQS in order to make
things a bit easier on reviewers.

The condition for the wait_event_interruptible_timeout() that waits
to do the next force-quiescent-state scan is a bit ornate:
((gf = READ_ONCE(rsp->gp_flags)) &
RCU_GP_FLAG_FQS) ||
(!READ_ONCE(rnp->qsmask) &&
!rcu_preempt_blocked_readers_cgp(rnp))
This commit therefore pulls this condition out into a helper function
and comments its component conditions.
