Currently, stutter_wait() will happily spin waiting for the stutter
interval to end even if the caller is running at a real-time priority
level. This could starve normal-priority tasks for no good reason. This
commit therefore drops the calling task's priority to SCHED_OTHER MAX_NICE
if stutter_wait() needs to wait. But when it waits, stutter_wait()
returns true, which allows the caller to restore the priority if needed.
Callers that were already running at SCHED_OTHER MAX_NICE obviously
do not need any changes, but this commit also restores priority for
higher-priority callers.

If an rcutorture torture-test run is given a bad kvm.sh argument, the
test will complain to the console, which is good. What is bad is that
from the user's perspective, it will just hang for the time specified
by the --duration argument. This commit therefore forces an immediate
kernel shutdown if a rcu_torture_init()-time error occurs, thus avoiding
the appearance of a hang. It also forces a console splat in this case
to clearly indicate the presence of an error.

Exclusive locks do not have readlock support, which means that a

This commit therefore rejects this combination for exclusive locks by

The scftorture tests currently use only smp_call_function() and
friends, which means that these tests cannot locate bugs caused by
interactions between different IPI vectors. This commit therefore adds
the rescheduling IPI to the mix.
Note that this commit permits resched_cpus() only when scftorture is
built in. This is a workaround. Longer term, this will use real wakeups
rather than resched_cpu().

The torture_stutter() function uses schedule_timeout_interruptible()
to time the stutter duration, but this can miss race conditions due to
its being time-synchronized with everything else that is based on the
timer wheels. This commit therefore converts torture_stutter() to use
the high-resolution timers via schedule_hrtimeout(), and also to fuzz
the stutter interval. While in the area, this commit also limits the
spin-loop portion of the stutter_wait() function's wait loop to two
jiffies, down from about one second.

Running locktorture scenario LOCK05 results in hangs:
tools/testing/selftests/rcutorture/bin/kvm.sh --allcpus --torture lock --duration 3 --configs LOCK05
The lock_torture_writer() kthreads set themselves to MAX_NICE while
running SCHED_OTHER. Other locktorture kthreads run at default niceness,
also SCHED_OTHER. This results in these other locktorture kthreads
indefinitely preempting the lock_torture_writer() kthreads. Note that
the cond_resched() in the stutter_wait() function's loop is ineffective
because this scenario is built with CONFIG_PREEMPT=y.
It is not clear that such indefinite preemption is supposed to happen, but
in the meantime this commit prevents kthreads running in stutter_wait()
from being completely CPU-bound, thus allowing the other threads to get
some CPU in a timely fashion. This commit also uses hrtimers to provide
very short sleeps to avoid degrading the sudden-on testing that stutter
is supposed to provide.

Currently, accessing /proc/cpuinfo sends IPIs to idle CPUs in order to
learn their clock frequency. Which is a bit strange, given that waking
them from idle likely significantly changes their clock frequency.

idle CPUs.

The current logic checks if the name of the BTF type passed in
attach_btf_id starts with "bpf_lsm_", this is not sufficient as it also
allows attachment to non-LSM hooks like the very function that performs
this check, i.e. bpf_lsm_verify_prog.
In order to ensure that this verification logic allows attachment to
only LSM hooks, the LSM_HOOK definitions in lsm_hook_defs.h are used to
generate a BTF_ID set. Upon verification, the attach_btf_id of the
program being attached is checked for presence in this set.

The currently available bpf_get_current_task returns an unsigned integer
which can be used along with BPF_CORE_READ to read data from
the task_struct but still cannot be used as an input argument to a
helper that accepts an ARG_PTR_TO_BTF_ID of type task_struct.
In order to implement this helper a new return type, RET_PTR_TO_BTF_ID,
is added. This is similar to RET_PTR_TO_BTF_ID_OR_NULL but does not

Similar to bpf_local_storage for sockets and inodes add local storage
for task_struct.
The life-cycle of storage is managed with the life-cycle of the
task_struct. i.e. the storage is destroyed along with the owning task
with a callback to the bpf_task_storage_free from the task_free LSM
hook.
The BPF LSM allocates an __rcu pointer to the bpf_local_storage in
the security blob which are now stackable and can co-exist with other
LSMs.

Usage of spin locks was not allowed for tracing programs due to
insufficient preemption checks. The verifier does not currently prevent
LSM programs from using spin locks, but the helpers are not exposed
via bpf_lsm_func_proto.
Based on the discussion in [1], non-sleepable LSM programs should be
able to use bpf_spin_{lock, unlock}.
Sleepable LSM programs can be preempted which means that allowng spin
locks will need more work (disabling preemption and the verifier
ensuring that no sleepable helpers are called when a spin lock is held).

If a ftrace callback requires "rcu_is_watching", then it adds the
FTRACE_OPS_FL_RCU flag and it will not be called if RCU is not "watching".
But this means that it will use a trampoline when called, and this slows
down the function tracing a tad. By checking rcu_is_watching() from within
the callback, it no longer needs the RCU flag set in the ftrace_ops and it
can be safely called directly.

If a ftrace callback does not supply its own recursion protection and
does not set the RECURSION_SAFE flag in its ftrace_ops, then ftrace will
make a helper trampoline to do so before calling the callback instead of
just calling the callback directly.
The default for ftrace_ops is going to change. It will expect that handlers
provide their own recursion protection, unless its ftrace_ops states

Currently, if a callback is registered to a ftrace function and its
ftrace_ops does not have the RECURSION flag set, it is encapsulated in a
helper function that does the recursion for it.
Really, all the callbacks should have their own recursion protection for
performance reasons. But they should not all implement their own. Move the
recursion helpers to global headers, so that all callbacks can use them.

make clang-analyzer on x86_64 defconfig caught my attention with:

Value stored to 'desc' is never read [clang-analyzer-deadcode.DeadStores]
desc = to_desc(desc_ring, head_id);
^
Commit b6cf8b3f3312 ("printk: add lockless ringbuffer") introduced
desc_reserve() with this unneeded dead-store assignment.
As discussed with John Ogness privately, this is probably just some minor
left-over from previous iterations of the ringbuffer implementation. So,
simply remove this unneeded dead assignment to make clang-analyzer happy.
As compilers will detect this unneeded assignment and optimize this anyway,
the resulting object code is identical before and after this change.

Zero-fill element values for all other cpus than current, just as
when not using prealloc. This is the only way the bpf program can
ensure known initial values for all cpus ('onallcpus' cannot be
set when coming from the bpf program).
The scenario is: bpf program inserts some elements in a per-cpu
map, then deletes some (or userspace does). When later adding
new elements using bpf_map_update_elem(), the bpf program can
only set the value of the new elements for the current cpu.
When prealloc is enabled, previously deleted elements are re-used.
Without the fix, values for other cpus remain whatever they were
when the re-used entry was previously freed.
A selftest is added to validate correct operation in above
scenario as well as in case of LRU per-cpu map element re-use.

Pick up the entry fix before further modifications.
|
|
When an exception/interrupt hits kernel space and the kernel is not
currently in the idle task then RCU must be watching.
irqentry_enter() validates this via rcu_irq_enter_check_tick(), which in
turn invokes lockdep when taking a lock. But at that point lockdep does not
yet know about the fact that interrupts have been disabled by the CPU,
which triggers a lockdep splat complaining about inconsistent state.
Invoking trace_hardirqs_off() before rcu_irq_enter_check_tick() defeats the
point of rcu_irq_enter_check_tick() because trace_hardirqs_off() uses RCU.
So use the same sequence as for the idle case and tell lockdep about the
irq state change first, invoke the RCU check and then do the lockdep and
tracer update.

Since the kprobe handlers have protection that prohibits other handlers from
executing in other contexts (like if an NMI comes in while processing a
kprobe, and executes the same kprobe, it will get fail with a "busy"
return). Lockdep is unaware of this protection. Use lockdep's nesting api to
differentiate between locks taken in INT3 context and other context to
suppress the false warnings.

kcov_common_handle is a method that is used to obtain a "default" KCOV
remote handle of the current process. The handle can later be passed
to kcov_remote_start in order to collect coverage for the processing
that is initiated by one process, but done in another. For details see
Documentation/dev-tools/kcov.rst and comments in kernel/kcov.c.
Presently, if kcov_common_handle is called in an IRQ context, it will
return a handle for the interrupted process. This may lead to
unreliable and incorrect coverage collection.
Adjust the behavior of kcov_common_handle in the following way. If it
is called in a task context, return the common handle for the
currently running task. Otherwise, return 0.

setting the value to three-quarters of the number of CPUs. On single-CPU
systems, this results in three-quarters of the value one, which the C
language's integer arithmetic rounds to zero. This in turn results in
a divide-by-zero error.
This commit therefore adds bounds checking to the refscale module
parameters, so that if they are less than one, they are set to the
value one.

At the end of the test and after rcu_torture_writer() stalls, rcutorture
invokes show_rcu_gp_kthreads() in order to dump out information on the
RCU grace-period kthread. This makes a lot of sense when testing vanilla
RCU, but not so much for the other flavors. This commit therefore allows
per-flavor kthread-dump functions to be specified.

The infinite for-loop in rcu_tasks_wait_gp() has its only exit at the
top of the loop, so this commit does the straightforward conversion to
a while-loop, thus saving a few lines.

The lockdep_is_held() macro is defined as:
#define lockdep_is_held(lock) lock_is_held(&(lock)->dep_map)
This hides away the dereference, so that builds with !LOCKDEP don't break.
This works in current kernels because the RCU_LOCKDEP_WARN() eliminates
its condition at preprocessor time in !LOCKDEP kernels. However, later
patches in this series will cause the compiler to see this condition even
in !LOCKDEP kernels. This commit prepares for this upcoming change by
switching from lock_is_held() to lockdep_is_held().

Avoid setting up watchpoints on NULL pointers, as otherwise we would
crash inside the KCSAN runtime (when checking for value changes) instead
of the instrumented code.
Because that may be confusing, skip any address less than PAGE_SIZE.

parse_synth_field() returns a pointer and requires that errors get
surrounded by ERR_PTR(). The ret variable is initialized to zero, but should
never be used as zero, and if it is, it could cause a false return code and
produce a NULL pointer dereference. It makes no sense to set ret to zero.
Set ret to -ENOMEM (the most common error case), and have any other errors
set it to something else. This removes the need to initialize ret on *every*
error branch.

The recursion protection of the ring buffer depends on preempt_count() to be
correct. But it is possible that the ring buffer gets called after an
interrupt comes in but before it updates the preempt_count(). This will
trigger a false positive in the recursion code.
Use the same trick from the ftrace function callback recursion code which
uses a "transition" bit that gets set, to allow for a single recursion for
to handle transitions between contexts.

Commit 32927393dc1c ("sysctl: pass kernel pointers to ->proc_handler")
removed various __user annotations from function signatures as part of
its refactoring.
It also removed the __user annotation for proc_dohung_task_timeout_secs()
at its declaration in sched/sysctl.h, but not at its definition in
kernel/hung_task.c.
Hence, sparse complains:
kernel/hung_task.c:271:5: error: symbol 'proc_dohung_task_timeout_secs' redeclared with different type (incompatible argument 3 (different address spaces))
Adjust the annotation at the definition fitting to that refactoring to make
sparse happy again, which also resolves this warning from sparse:
kernel/hung_task.c:277:52: warning: incorrect type in argument 3 (different address spaces)
kernel/hung_task.c:277:52: expected void *
kernel/hung_task.c:277:52: got void [noderef] __user *buffer

canceled
There is a small race window when a delayed work is being canceled and
the work still might be queued from the timer_fn:
CPU0 CPU1
kthread_cancel_delayed_work_sync()
__kthread_cancel_work_sync()
__kthread_cancel_work()
work->canceling++;
kthread_delayed_work_timer_fn()
kthread_insert_work();
BUG: kthread_insert_work() should not get called when work->canceling is
set.

}
fails and triggers WARN_ON_ONCE(!signr) in do_jobctl_trap().
This is because task_join_group_stop() has 2 problems when current is traced:
1. We can't rely on the "JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING" check, a stopped tracee
can be woken up by debugger and it can clone another thread which
should join the group-stop.
We need to check group_stop_count || SIGNAL_STOP_STOPPED.
2. If SIGNAL_STOP_STOPPED is already set, we should not increment
sig->group_stop_count and add JOBCTL_STOP_CONSUME. The new thread
should stop without another do_notify_parent_cldstop() report.
To clarify, the problem is very old and we should blame
ptrace_init_task(). But now that we have task_join_group_stop() it makes
more sense to fix this helper to avoid the code duplication.

The cpufreq policy's frequency limits (min/max) can get changed at any
point of time, while schedutil is trying to update the next frequency.
Though the schedutil governor has necessary locking and support in place
to make sure we don't miss any of those updates, there is a corner case
where the governor will find that the CPU is already running at the
desired frequency and so may skip an update.
For example, consider that the CPU can run at 1 GHz, 1.2 GHz and 1.4 GHz
and is running at 1 GHz currently. Schedutil tries to update the
frequency to 1.2 GHz, during this time the policy limits get changed as
policy->min = 1.4 GHz. As schedutil (and cpufreq core) does clamp the
frequency at various instances, we will eventually set the frequency to
1.4 GHz, while we will save 1.2 GHz in sg_policy->next_freq.
Now lets say the policy limits get changed back at this time with
policy->min as 1 GHz. The next time schedutil is invoked by the
scheduler, we will reevaluate the next frequency (because
need_freq_update will get set due to limits change event) and lets say
we want to set the frequency to 1.2 GHz again. At this point
sugov_update_next_freq() will find the next_freq == current_freq and
will abort the update, while the CPU actually runs at 1.4 GHz.
Until now need_freq_update was used as a flag to indicate that the
policy's frequency limits have changed, and that we should consider the
new limits while reevaluating the next frequency.
This patch fixes the above mentioned issue by extending the purpose of
the need_freq_update flag. If this flag is set now, the schedutil
governor will not try to abort a frequency change even if next_freq ==
current_freq.
As similar behavior is required in the case of
CPUFREQ_NEED_UPDATE_LIMITS flag as well, need_freq_update will never be
set to false if that flag is set for the driver.
We also don't need to consider the need_freq_update flag in
sugov_update_single() anymore to handle the special case of busy CPU, as
we won't abort a frequency update anymore.
