We have two very conflicting state variable names in the
watchdog:
* watchdog_enabled: This one reflects the user interface. It's
set to 1 by default and can be overriden with boot options
or sysctl/procfs interface.
* watchdog_disabled: This is the internal toggle state that
tells if watchdog threads, timers and NMI events are currently
running or not. This state mostly depends on the user settings.
It's a convenient state latch.
Now we really need to find clearer names because those
are just too confusing to encourage deep review.
watchdog_enabled now becomes watchdog_user_enabled to reflect
its purpose as an interface.
watchdog_disabled becomes watchdog_running to suggest its
role as a pure internal state.

When FUNCTION_GRAPH_TRACER is enabled, ftrace can profile kernel functions
and print basic statistics about them. Unfortunately, running stddev
calculation is wrong. This patch corrects it implementing Welford’s method:
s^2 = 1 / (n * (n-1)) * (n * \Sum (x_i)^2 - (\Sum x_i)^2) .

Since tp->flags assignment was moved into function enable_trace_probe(),
there is no need to use trace_probe_is_enabled to check flags
in the same function.
Remove the unnecessary checking.

Add a traceoff_on_warning option in both the kernel command line as well
as a sysctl option. When set, any WARN*() function that is hit will cause
the tracing_on variable to be cleared, which disables writing to the
ring buffer.
This is useful especially when tracing a bug with function tracing. When
a warning is hit, the print caused by the warning can flood the trace with
the functions that producing the output for the warning. This can make the
resulting trace useless by either hiding where the bug happened, or worse,
by overflowing the buffer and losing the trace of the bug totally.

There are some cases when filtering on a set flag of a field of a tracepoint
is useful. But currently the only filtering commands for numbered fields
is ==, !=, <, <=, >, >=. This does not help when you just want to trace if
a specific flag is set. For example:
> # sudo trace-cmd record -e brcmfmac:brcmf_dbg -f 'level & 0x40000'
> disable all
> enable brcmfmac:brcmf_dbg
> path = /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/brcmfmac/brcmf_dbg/enable
> (level & 0x40000)
> ^
> parse_error: Invalid operator
>
When trying to trace brcmf_dbg when level has its 1 << 18 bit set, the
filter fails to perform.
By allowing a binary '&' operation, this gives the user the ability to
test a bit.
Note, a binary '|' is not added, as it doesn't make sense as fields must
be compared to constants (for now), and ORing a constant will always return
true.

The user activation/deactivation of the watchdog through boot parameters
or systcl is currently implemented with a dance involving kthreads parking
and unparking methods: the threads are unconditionally registered on
boot and they park as soon as the user want the watchdog to be disabled.
This method involves a few noisy details to handle though: the watchdog
kthreads may be unparked anytime due to hotplug operations, after which
the watchdog internals have to decide to park again if it is user-disabled.
As a result the setup() and unpark() methods need to be able to request a
reparking. This is not currently supported in the kthread infrastructure
so this piece of the watchdog code only works halfway.
Besides, unparking/reparking the watchdog kthreads consume unnecessary
cputime on hotplug operations when those could be simply ignored in the
first place.
As suggested by Srivatsa, let's instead only register the watchdog
threads when they are needed. This way we don't need to think about
hotplug operations and we don't burden the CPU onlining when the watchdog
is simply disabled.

If the user configures NO_HZ_FULL and defines nohz_full=XXX on the
kernel command line, or enables NO_HZ_FULL_ALL, but nohz fails
due to the machine having a unstable clock, warn about it.
We do not want users thinking that they are getting the benefit
of nohz when their machine can not support it.

In build_sched_groups() we don't need to call get_group() for cpus
which are already covered in previous iterations. Calling get_group()
would mark the group used and eventually leak it since we wouldn't
connect it and not find it again to free it.
This will happen only in cases where sg->cpumask contained more than
one cpu (For any topology level). This patch would free sg's memory
for all cpus leaving the group leader as the group isn't marked used
now.

iterating over the nested sd->child list. We don't actually need to do it this
way.
tl will be equal to sched_domain_topology for the first iteration and so we can

------------[ cut here ]------------
What happened was that the function tracer traced the schedule_user() code
that tells RCU that the system is coming back from userspace, and to
add the CPU back to the RCU monitoring.
Because the function tracer does a preempt_disable/enable_notrace() calls
the preempt_enable_notrace() checks the NEED_RESCHED flag. If it is set,
then preempt_schedule() is called. But this is called before the user_exit()
function can inform the kernel that the CPU is no longer in user mode and
needs to be accounted for by RCU.
The fix is to create a new preempt_schedule_context() that checks if
the kernel is still in user mode and if so to switch it to kernel mode
before calling schedule. It also switches back to user mode coming back
from schedule in need be.
The only user of this currently is the preempt_enable_notrace(), which is
only used by the tracing subsystem.

I have faced a sequence where the Idle Load Balance was sometime not
triggered for a while on my platform, in the following scenario:
CPU 0 and CPU 1 are running tasks and CPU 2 is idle
CPU 1 kicks the Idle Load Balance
CPU 1 selects CPU 2 as the new Idle Load Balancer
CPU 2 sets NOHZ_BALANCE_KICK for CPU 2
CPU 2 sends a reschedule IPI to CPU 2
While CPU 3 wakes up, CPU 0 or CPU 1 migrates a waking up task A on CPU 2
CPU 2 finally wakes up, runs task A and discards the Idle Load Balance
task A quickly goes back to sleep (before a tick occurs on CPU 2)
CPU 2 goes back to idle with NOHZ_BALANCE_KICK set
Whenever CPU 2 will be selected as the ILB, no reschedule IPI will be sent
because NOHZ_BALANCE_KICK is already set and no Idle Load Balance will be
performed.
We must wait for the sched softirq to be raised on CPU 2 thanks to another
part the kernel to come back to clear NOHZ_BALANCE_KICK.
The proposed solution clears NOHZ_BALANCE_KICK in schedule_ipi if
we can't raise the sched_softirq for the Idle Load Balance.
Change since V1:
- move the clear of NOHZ_BALANCE_KICK in got_nohz_idle_kick if the ILB
can't run on this CPU (as suggested by Peter)

Vince's fuzzer once again found holes. This time it spotted a leak in
the locked page accounting.
When an event had redirected output and its close() was the last
reference to the buffer we didn't have a vm context to undo accounting.
Change the code to destroy the buffer on the last munmap() and detach
all redirected events at that time. This provides us the right context
to undo the vm accounting.

cgroup_serial_nr_cursor was created atomic64_t because I thought it

now we're using it as an event-stamp to distinguish cgroups created

Let's make it clear by making it a u64. Also, rename it to

corresponding commit in upstream is fbe06b7bae7c.
The reason is add_range_with_merge could generate blank spot.
We could avoid that by searching new expanded start/end, that
new range should include all connected ranges in range array.
At last add the new expanded start/end to the range array.
Also move up left array so do not add new blank slot in the

cgroup's rename(2) isn't a proper migration implementation - it can't
move the cgroup to a different parent in the hierarchy. All it can do
is swapping the name string for that cgroup. This isn't useful and
can mislead users to think that cgroup supports proper cgroup-level
migration. Disallow rename(2) if sane_behavior.
v2: Fail with -EPERM instead of -EINVAL so that it matches the vfs
return value when ->rename is not implemented as suggested by Li.

There is a small race between when the cycle count is read from
the hardware and when the epoch stabilizes. Consider this
scenario:
CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
cyc = read_sched_clock()
cyc_to_sched_clock()
update_sched_clock()
...
cd.epoch_cyc = cyc;
epoch_cyc = cd.epoch_cyc;
...
epoch_ns + cyc_to_ns((cyc - epoch_cyc)
The cyc on cpu0 was read before the epoch changed. But we
calculate the nanoseconds based on the new epoch by subtracting
the new epoch from the old cycle count. Since epoch is most likely
larger than the old cycle count we calculate a large number that
will be converted to nanoseconds and added to epoch_ns, causing
time to jump forward too much.
Fix this problem by reading the hardware after the epoch has
stabilized.

exit_notify() does exit_task_namespaces() after
forget_original_parent(). This was needed to ensure that ->nsproxy
can't be cleared prematurely, an exiting child we are going to
reparent can do do_notify_parent() and use the parent's (ours) pid_ns.
However, after 32084504 "pidns: use task_active_pid_ns in
do_notify_parent" ->nsproxy != NULL is no longer needed, we rely
on task_active_pid_ns().
Move exit_task_namespaces() from exit_notify() to do_exit(), after
exit_fs() and before exit_task_work().
This solves the problem reported by Andrey, free_ipc_ns()->shm_destroy()
does fput() which needs task_work_add().
Note: this particular problem can be fixed if we change fput(), and
that change makes sense anyway. But there is another reason to move
the callsite. The original reason for exit_task_namespaces() from
the middle of exit_notify() was subtle and it has already gone away,
now this looks confusing. And this allows us do simplify exit_notify(),
we can avoid unlock/lock(tasklist) and we can use ->exit_state instead
of PF_EXITING in forget_original_parent().

PARISC bootup triggers the warning at kernel/cpu/idle.c:96. That's
caused by the weak arch_cpu_idle() implementation, which is provided
to avoid that architectures implement idle_poll over and over.
The switchover to polling mode happens in the first call of the weak
arch_cpu_idle() implementation, but that code fails to reenable
interrupts and therefor triggers the warning.
Fix this by enabling interrupts in the weak arch_cpu_idle() code.

A css (cgroup_subsys_state) is how each cgroup is represented to a
controller. As such, it can be used in hot paths across the various
subsystems different controllers are associated with.
One of the common operations is reference counting, which up until now
has been implemented using a global atomic counter and can have
significant adverse impact on scalability. For example, css refcnt
can be gotten and put multiple times by blkcg for each IO request.
For highops configurations which try to do as much per-cpu as
possible, the global frequent refcnting can be very expensive.
In general, given the various and hugely diverse paths css's end up
being used from, we need to make it cheap and highly scalable. In its
usage, css refcnting isn't very different from module refcnting.
This patch converts css refcnting to use the recently added
percpu_ref. css_get/tryget/put() directly maps to the matching
percpu_ref operations and the deactivation logic is no longer
necessary as percpu_ref already has refcnt killing.
The only complication is that as the refcnt is per-cpu,
percpu_ref_kill() in itself doesn't ensure that further tryget
operations will fail, which we need to guarantee before invoking
->css_offline()'s. This is resolved collecting kill confirmation
using percpu_ref_kill_and_confirm() and initiating the offline phase
of destruction after all css refcnt's are confirmed to be seen as
killed on all CPUs. The previous patches already splitted destruction
into two phases, so percpu_ref_kill_and_confirm() can be hooked up
easily.
This patch removes css_refcnt() which is used for rcu dereference
sanity check in css_id(). While we can add a percpu refcnt API to ask
the same question, css_id() itself is scheduled to be removed fairly
soon, so let's not bother with it. Just drop the sanity check and use
rcu_dereference_raw() instead.
v2: - init_cgroup_css() was calling percpu_ref_init() without checking
the return value. This causes two problems - the obvious lack
of error handling and percpu_ref_init() being called from
cgroup_init_subsys() before the allocators are up, which
triggers warnings but doesn't cause actual problems as the
refcnt isn't used for roots anyway. Fix both by moving
percpu_ref_init() to cgroup_create().
- The base references were put too early by
percpu_ref_kill_and_confirm() and cgroup_offline_fn() put the
refs one extra time. This wasn't noticeable because css's go
through another RCU grace period before being freed. Update
cgroup_destroy_locked() to grab an extra reference before
killing the refcnts. This problem was noticed by Kent.

Split cgroup_destroy_locked() into two steps and put the latter half
into cgroup_offline_fn() which is executed from a work item. The
latter half is responsible for offlining the css's, removing the
cgroup from internal lists, and propagating release notification to
the parent. The separation is to allow using percpu refcnt for css.
Note that this allows for other cgroup operations to happen between
the first and second halves of destruction, including creating a new
cgroup with the same name. As the target cgroup is marked DEAD in the
first half and cgroup internals don't care about the names of cgroups,
this should be fine. A comment explaining this will be added by the
next patch which implements the actual percpu refcnting.
As RCU freeing is guaranteed to happen after the second step of
destruction, we can use the same work item for both. This patch
renames cgroup->free_work to ->destroy_work and uses it for both
purposes. INIT_WORK() is now performed right before queueing the work
item.

This patch reorders the operations in cgroup_destroy_locked() such
that the userland visible parts happen before css offlining and
removal from the ->sibling list. This will be used to make css use
percpu refcnt.
While at it, split out CGRP_DEAD related comment from the refcnt
deactivation one and correct / clarify how different guarantees are
met.
While this patch changes the specific order of operations, it
shouldn't cause any noticeable behavior difference.
