The printing macros in debug.c keep redefining the same output
format. Collect each output format in a single definition, and reuse that
definition in the other macros. While at it, add a layer of parentheses and
replace printf's with the newly introduced macros.

Most printing macros for procfs are defined globally in debug.c, and they
are re-defined (to the exact same thing) within proc_sched_show_task().
Get rid of the duplicate defines.

The kernel test robot triggered a warning with the following race:
task-ctx A interrupt-ctx B
worker
-> process_one_work()
-> work_item()
-> schedule();
-> sched_submit_work()
-> wq_worker_sleeping()
-> ->sleeping = 1
atomic_dec_and_test(nr_running)
__schedule(); *interrupt*
async_page_fault()
-> local_irq_enable();
-> schedule();
-> sched_submit_work()
-> wq_worker_sleeping()
-> if (WARN_ON(->sleeping)) return
-> __schedule()
-> sched_update_worker()
-> wq_worker_running()
-> atomic_inc(nr_running);
-> ->sleeping = 0;
-> sched_update_worker()
-> wq_worker_running()
if (!->sleeping) return
In this context the warning is pointless everything is fine.
An interrupt before wq_worker_sleeping() will perform the ->sleeping
assignment (0 -> 1 > 0) twice.
An interrupt after wq_worker_sleeping() will trigger the warning and
nr_running will be decremented (by A) and incremented once (only by B, A
will skip it). This is the case until the ->sleeping is zeroed again in
wq_worker_running().
Remove the WARN statement because this condition may happen. Document
that preemption around wq_worker_sleeping() needs to be disabled to
protect ->sleeping and not just as an optimisation.

A negative imbalance value was observed after imbalance calculation,
this happens when the local sched group type is group_fully_busy,
and the average load of local group is greater than the selected
busiest group. Fix this problem by comparing the average load of the
local and busiest group before imbalance calculation formula.

Currently, there is a potential race between distribute_cfs_runtime()
and assign_cfs_rq_runtime(). Race happens when cfs_b->runtime is read,
distributes without holding lock and finds out there is not enough
runtime to charge against after distribution. Because
assign_cfs_rq_runtime() might be called during distribution, and use
cfs_b->runtime at the same time.
Fibtest is the tool to test this race. Assume all gcfs_rq is throttled
and cfs period timer runs, slow threads might run and sleep, returning
unused cfs_rq runtime and keeping min_cfs_rq_runtime in their local
pool. If all this happens sufficiently quickly, cfs_b->runtime will drop
a lot. If runtime distributed is large too, over-use of runtime happens.
A runtime over-using by about 70 percent of quota is seen when we
test fibtest on a 96-core machine. We run fibtest with 1 fast thread and
95 slow threads in test group, configure 10ms quota for this group and
see the CPU usage of fibtest is 17.0%, which is far more than the
expected 10%.
On a smaller machine with 32 cores, we also run fibtest with 96
threads. CPU usage is more than 12%, which is also more than expected
10%. This shows that on similar workloads, this race do affect CPU
bandwidth control.
Solve this by holding lock inside distribute_cfs_runtime().

sched/core.c uses update_avg() for rq->avg_idle and sched/fair.c uses an
open-coded version (with the exact same decay factor) for
rq->avg_scan_cost. On top of that, select_idle_cpu() expects to be able to
compare these two fields.
The only difference between the two is that rq->avg_scan_cost is computed
using a pure division rather than a shift. Turns out it actually matters,
first of all because the shifted value can be negative, and the standard
has this to say about it:
"""
The result of E1 >> E2 is E1 right-shifted E2 bit positions. [...] If E1
has a signed type and a negative value, the resulting value is
implementation-defined.
"""
Not only this, but (arithmetic) right shifting a negative value (using 2's
complement) is *not* equivalent to dividing it by the corresponding power
of 2. Let's look at a few examples:
-4 -> 0xF..FC
-4 >> 3 -> 0xF..FF == -1 != -4 / 8
-8 -> 0xF..F8
-8 >> 3 -> 0xF..FF == -1 == -8 / 8
-9 -> 0xF..F7
-9 >> 3 -> 0xF..FE == -2 != -9 / 8
Make update_avg() use a division, and export it to the private scheduler
header to reuse it where relevant. Note that this still lets compilers use
a shift here, but should prevent any unwanted surprise. The disassembly of
select_idle_cpu() remains unchanged on arm64, and ttwu_do_wakeup() gains 2
instructions; the diff sort of looks like this:
- sub x1, x1, x0
+ subs x1, x1, x0 // set condition codes
+ add x0, x1, #0x7
+ csel x0, x0, x1, mi // x0 = x1 < 0 ? x0 : x1
add x0, x3, x0, asr #3
which does the right thing (i.e. gives us the expected result while still
using an arithmetic shift)

Song reports that installing cgroup events is broken since:
db0503e4f675 ("perf/core: Optimize perf_install_in_event()")
The problem being that cgroup events try to track cpuctx->cgrp even
for disabled events, which is pointless and actively harmful since the
above commit. Rework the code to have explicit enable/disable hooks
for cgroup events, such that we can limit cgroup tracking to active
events.
More specifically, since the above commit disabled events are no
longer added to their context from the 'right' CPU, and we can't
access things like the current cgroup for a remote CPU.

The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language extension
to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
introduced in C99:
struct foo {
int stuff;
struct boo array[];
};
By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning in
case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which will
help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.
Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by this
change:
"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]

Now that "struct proc_ops" exist we can start putting there stuff which
could not fly with VFS "struct file_operations"...
Most of fs/proc/inode.c file is dedicated to make open/read/.../close
reliable in the event of disappearing /proc entries which usually happens
if module is getting removed. Files like /proc/cpuinfo which never
disappear simply do not need such protection.
Save 2 atomic ops, 1 allocation, 1 free per open/read/close sequence for such
"permanent" files.
Enable "permanent" flag for
/proc/cpuinfo
/proc/kmsg
/proc/modules
/proc/slabinfo
/proc/stat
/proc/sysvipc/*
/proc/swaps
More will come once I figure out foolproof way to prevent out module
authors from marking their stuff "permanent" for performance reasons
when it is not.
This should help with scalability: benchmark is "read /proc/cpuinfo R times
by N threads scattered over the system".

Patch series "mm: Fix misuse of parent anon_vma in dup_mmap path".
This patchset fixes the misuse of parenet anon_vma, which mainly caused by
child vma's vm_next and vm_prev are left same as its parent after
duplicate vma. Finally, code reached parent vma's neighbor by referring
pointer of child vma and executed wrong logic.
The first two patches fix relevant issues, and the third patch sets
vm_next and vm_prev to NULL when duplicate vma to prevent potential misuse
in future.
Effects of the first bug is that causes rmap code to check both parent and
child's page table, although a page couldn't be mapped by both parent and
child, because child vma has WIPEONFORK so all pages mapped by child are
'new' and not relevant to parent.
Effects of the second bug is that the relationship of anon_vma of parent
and child are totallyconvoluted. It would cause 'son', 'grandson', ...,
etc, to share 'parent' anon_vma, which disobey the design rule of reusing
anon_vma (the rule to be followed is that reusing should among vma of same
process, and vma should not gone through fork).
So, both issues should cause unnecessary rmap walking and have unexpected
complexity.
These two issues would not be directly visible, I used debugging code to
check the anon_vma pointers of parent and child when inspecting the
suspicious implementation of issue #2, then find the problem.
This patch (of 3):
In dup_mmap(), anon_vma_prepare() is called for vma has VM_WIPEONFORK, and
parameter 'tmp' (i.e., the new vma of child) has same ->vm_next and
->vm_prev as its parent vma. That allows anon_vma used by parent been
mistakenly shared by child (find_mergeable_anon_vma() will do this reuse
work).
Besides this issue, call anon_vma_prepare() should be avoided because we
don't copy page for this vma. Preparing anon_vma will be handled during
fault.

Michael noticed that userns limit for number of time namespaces is missing.
Furthermore, time namespace introduced UCOUNT_TIME_NAMESPACES, but didn't
introduce an array member in user_table[]. It would make array's
initialisation OOB write, but by luck the user_table array has an excessive
empty member (all accesses to the array are limited with UCOUNT_COUNTS - so
it silently reuses the last free member.
Fixes user-visible regression: max_inotify_instances by reason of the
missing UCOUNT_ENTRY() has limited max number of namespaces instead of the
number of inotify instances.

Looking at the contents of the /proc/PID/ns/time_for_children symlink shows
an anomaly:
$ ls -l /proc/self/ns/* |awk '{print $9, $10, $11}'
...
/proc/self/ns/pid -> pid:[4026531836]
/proc/self/ns/pid_for_children -> pid:[4026531836]
/proc/self/ns/time -> time:[4026531834]
/proc/self/ns/time_for_children -> time_for_children:[4026531834]
/proc/self/ns/user -> user:[4026531837]
...
The reference for 'time_for_children' should be a 'time' namespace, just as
the reference for 'pid_for_children' is a 'pid' namespace. In other words,
the above time_for_children link should read:
/proc/self/ns/time_for_children -> time:[4026531834]

The rcu_nmi_enter_common() function can be invoked both in interrupt
and NMI handlers. If it is invoked from process context (as opposed
to userspace or idle context) on a nohz_full CPU, it might acquire the
CPU's leaf rcu_node structure's ->lock. Because this lock is held only
with interrupts disabled, this is safe from an interrupt handler, but
doing so from an NMI handler can result in self-deadlock.
This commit therefore adds "irq" to the "if" condition so as to only
acquire the ->lock from irq handlers or process context, never from
an NMI handler.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
"New tracing features:
- The ring buffer is no longer disabled when reading the trace file.
The trace_pipe file was made to be used for live tracing and
reading as it acted like the normal producer/consumer. As the trace
file would not consume the data, the easy way of handling it was to
just disable writes to the ring buffer.
This came to a surprise to the BPF folks who complained about lost
events due to reading. This is no longer an issue. If someone wants
to keep the old disabling there's a new option "pause-on-trace"
that can be set.
- New set_ftrace_notrace_pid file. PIDs in this file will not be
traced by the function tracer.
Similar to set_ftrace_pid, which makes the function tracer only
trace those tasks with PIDs in the file, the set_ftrace_notrace_pid
does the reverse.
- New set_event_notrace_pid file. PIDs in this file will cause events
not to be traced if triggered by a task with a matching PID.
Similar to the set_event_pid file but will not be traced. Note,
sched_waking and sched_switch events may still be traced if one of
the tasks referenced by those events contains a PID that is allowed
to be traced.
Tracing related features:
- New bootconfig option, that is attached to the initrd file.
If bootconfig is on the command line, then the initrd file is
searched looking for a bootconfig appended at the end.
- New GPU tracepoint infrastructure to help the gfx drivers to get
off debugfs (acked by Greg Kroah-Hartman)

When dumping out the trace data in latency format, a check is made to peek
at the next event to compare its timestamp to the current one, and if the
delta is of a greater size, it will add a marker showing so. But to do this,
it needs to save the current event otherwise peeking at the next event will
remove the current event. To save the event, a temp buffer is used, and if
the event is bigger than the temp buffer, the temp buffer is freed and a
bigger buffer is allocated.
This allocation is a problem when called in atomic context. The only way
this gets called via atomic context is via ftrace_dump(). Thus, use a static
buffer of 128 bytes (which covers most events), and if the event is bigger
than that, simply return NULL. The callers of trace_find_next_entry() need
to handle a NULL case, as that's what would happen if the allocation failed.

Pull exec/proc updates from Eric Biederman:
"This contains two significant pieces of work: the work to sort out
proc_flush_task, and the work to solve a deadlock between strace and
exec.
Fixing proc_flush_task so that it no longer requires a persistent
mount makes improvements to proc possible. The removal of the
persistent mount solves an old regression that that caused the hidepid
mount option to only work on remount not on mount. The regression was
found and reported by the Android folks. This further allows Alexey
Gladkov's work making proc mount options specific to an individual
mount of proc to move forward.
The work on exec starts solving a long standing issue with exec that
it takes mutexes of blocking userspace applications, which makes exec
extremely deadlock prone. For the moment this adds a second mutex with
a narrower scope that handles all of the easy cases. Which makes the
tricky cases easy to spot. With a little luck the code to solve those
deadlocks will be ready by next merge window"

Since commit 5bbe3547aa3ba ("mm: allow compaction of unevictable pages")
it is allowed to examine mlocked pages and compact them by default. On
-RT even minor pagefaults are problematic because it may take a few 100us
to resolve them and until then the task is blocked.
Make compact_unevictable_allowed = 0 default and issue a warning on RT if
it is changed.

The proc file `compact_unevictable_allowed' should allow 0 and 1 only, the
`extra*' attribues have been set properly but without
proc_dointvec_minmax() as the `proc_handler' the limit will not be
enforced.
Use proc_dointvec_minmax() as the `proc_handler' to enfoce the valid
specified range.

Right now, the effective protection of any given cgroup is capped by its
own explicit memory.low setting, regardless of what the parent says. The
reasons for this are mostly historical and ease of implementation: to make
delegation of memory.low safe, effective protection is the min() of all
memory.low up the tree.
Unfortunately, this limitation makes it impossible to protect an entire
subtree from another without forcing the user to make explicit protection
allocations all the way to the leaf cgroups - something that is highly
undesirable in real life scenarios.
Consider memory in a data center host. At the cgroup top level, we have a
distinction between system management software and the actual workload the
system is executing. Both branches are further subdivided into individual
services, job components etc.
We want to protect the workload as a whole from the system management
software, but that doesn't mean we want to protect and prioritize
individual workload wrt each other. Their memory demand can vary over
time, and we'd want the VM to simply cache the hottest data within the
workload subtree. Yet, the current memory.low limitations force us to
allocate a fixed amount of protection to each workload component in order
to get protection from system management software in general. This
results in very inefficient resource distribution.
Another concern with mandating downward allocation is that, as the
complexity of the cgroup tree grows, it gets harder for the lower levels
to be informed about decisions made at the host-level. Consider a
container inside a namespace that in turn creates its own nested tree of
cgroups to run multiple workloads. It'd be extremely difficult to
configure memory.low parameters in those leaf cgroups that on one hand
balance pressure among siblings as the container desires, while also
reflecting the host-level protection from e.g. rpm upgrades, that lie
beyond one or more delegation and namespacing points in the tree.
It's highly unusual from a cgroup interface POV that nested levels have to
be aware of and reflect decisions made at higher levels for them to be
effective.
To enable such use cases and scale configurability for complex trees, this
patch implements a resource inheritance model for memory that is similar
to how the CPU and the IO controller implement work-conserving resource
allocations: a share of a resource allocated to a subree always applies to
the entire subtree recursively, while allowing, but not mandating,
children to further specify distribution rules.
That means that if protection is explicitly allocated among siblings,
those configured shares are being followed during page reclaim just like
they are now. However, if the memory.low set at a higher level is not
fully claimed by the children in that subtree, the "floating" remainder is
applied to each cgroup in the tree in proportion to its size. Since
reclaim pressure is applied in proportion to size as well, each child in
that tree gets the same boost, and the effect is neutral among siblings -
with respect to each other, they behave as if no memory control was
enabled at all, and the VM simply balances the memory demands optimally
within the subtree. But collectively those cgroups enjoy a boost over the
cgroups in neighboring trees.
E.g. a leaf cgroup with a memory.low setting of 0 no longer means that
it's not getting a share of the hierarchically assigned resource, just
that it doesn't claim a fixed amount of it to protect from its siblings.
This allows us to recursively protect one subtree (workload) from another
(system management), while letting subgroups compete freely among each
other - without having to assign fixed shares to each leaf, and without
nested groups having to echo higher-level settings.
The floating protection composes naturally with fixed protection.
Consider the following example tree:
A A: low = 2G
/ \ A1: low = 1G
A1 A2 A2: low = 0G
As outside pressure is applied to this tree, A1 will enjoy a fixed
protection from A2 of 1G, but the remaining, unclaimed 1G from A is split
evenly among A1 and A2, coming out to 1.5G and 0.5G.
There is a slight risk of regressing theoretical setups where the
top-level cgroups don't know about the true budgeting and set bogusly high
"bypass" values that are meaningfully allocated down the tree. Such
setups would rely on unclaimed protection to be discarded, and
distributing it would change the intended behavior. Be safe and hide the
new behavior behind a mount option, 'memory_recursiveprot'.
