Add the syscalls needed for supporting scheduling algorithms with extended scheduling parameters (e.g., SCHED_DEADLINE). In general, it makes possible to specify a periodic/sporadic task, that executes for a given amount of runtime at each instance, and is scheduled according to the urgency of their own timing constraints, i.e.: - a (maximum/typical) instance execution time, - a minimum interval between consecutive instances, - a time constraint by which each instance must be completed. Thus, both the data structure that holds the scheduling parameters of the tasks and the system calls dealing with it must be extended. Unfortunately, modifying the existing struct sched_param would break the ABI and result in potentially serious compatibility issues with legacy binaries. For these reasons, this patch: - defines the new struct sched_attr, containing all the fields that are necessary for specifying a task in the computational model described above; - defines and implements the new scheduling related syscalls that manipulate it, i.e., sched_setattr() and sched_getattr(). Syscalls are introduced for x86 (32 and 64 bits) and ARM only, as a proof of concept and for developing and testing purposes. Making them available on other architectures is straightforward. Since no "user" for these new parameters is introduced in this patch, the implementation of the new system calls is just identical to their already existing counterpart. Future patches that implement scheduling policies able to exploit the new data structure must also take care of modifying the sched_*attr() calls accordingly with their own purposes.

Thomas Hellstrom bisected a regression where erratic 3D performance is experienced on virtual machines as measured by glxgears. It identified commit 58d081b5 ("sched/numa: Avoid overloading CPUs on a preferred NUMA node") as the problem which had modified the behaviour of effective_load. Effective load calculates the difference to the system-wide load if a scheduling entity was moved to another CPU. The task group is not heavier as a result of the move but overall system load can increase/decrease as a result of the change. Commit 58d081b5 ("sched/numa: Avoid overloading CPUs on a preferred NUMA node") changed effective_load to make it suitable for calculating if a particular NUMA node was compute overloaded. To reduce the cost of the function, it assumed that a current sched entity weight of 0 was uninteresting but that is not the case. wake_affine() uses a weight of 0 for sync wakeups on the grounds that it is assuming the waking task will sleep and not contribute to load in the near future. In this case, we still want to calculate the effective load of the sched entity hierarchy. As effective_load is no longer used by task_numa_compare since commit fb13c7ee (sched/numa: Use a system-wide search to find swap/migration candidates), this patch simply restores the historical behaviour.

Freezable kthreads and workqueues are fundamentally problematic in that they effectively introduce a big kernel lock widely used in the kernel and have already been the culprit of several deadlock scenarios. This is the latest occurrence. During resume, libata rescans all the ports and revalidates all pre-existing devices. If it determines that a device has gone missing, the device is removed from the system which involves invalidating block device and flushing bdi while holding driver core layer locks. Unfortunately, this can race with the rest of device resume. Because freezable kthreads and workqueues are thawed after device resume is complete and block device removal depends on freezable workqueues and kthreads (e.g. bdi_wq, jbd2) to make progress, this can lead to deadlock - block device removal can't proceed because kthreads are frozen and kthreads can't be thawed because device resume is blocked behind block device removal. 839a8e86 ("writeback: replace custom worker pool implementation with unbound workqueue") made this particular deadlock scenario more visible but the underlying problem has always been there - the original forker task and jbd2 are freezable too. In fact, this is highly likely just one of many possible deadlock scenarios given that freezer behaves as a big kernel lock and we don't have any debug mechanism around it. I believe the right thing to do is getting rid of freezable kthreads and workqueues. This is something fundamentally broken. For now, implement a funny workaround in libata - just avoid doing block device hot[un]plug while the system is frozen. Kernel engineering at its finest. :( v2: Add EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(pm_freezing) for cases where libata is built as a module. v3: Comment updated and polling interval changed to 10ms as suggested by Rafael. v4: Add #ifdef CONFIG_FREEZER around the hack as pm_freezing is not defined when FREEZER is not configured thus breaking build.

There are a few subtle races, between change_protection_range (used by mprotect and change_prot_numa) on one side, and NUMA page migration and compaction on the other side. The basic race is that there is a time window between when the PTE gets made non-present (PROT_NONE or NUMA), and the TLB is flushed. During that time, a CPU may continue writing to the page. This is fine most of the time, however compaction or the NUMA migration code may come in, and migrate the page away. When that happens, the CPU may continue writing, through the cached translation, to what is no longer the current memory location of the process. This only affects x86, which has a somewhat optimistic pte_accessible. All other architectures appear to be safe, and will either always flush, or flush whenever there is a valid mapping, even with no permissions (SPARC). The basic race looks like this: CPU A CPU B CPU C load TLB entry make entry PTE/PMD_NUMA fault on entry read/write old page start migrating page change PTE/PMD to new page read/write old page [*] flush TLB reload TLB from new entry read/write new page lose data [*] the old page may belong to a new user at this point! The obvious fix is to flush remote TLB entries, by making sure that pte_accessible aware of the fact that PROT_NONE and PROT_NUMA memory may still be accessible if there is a TLB flush pending for the mm. This should fix both NUMA migration and compaction.

Commit 1b3a5d02 ("reboot: move arch/x86 reboot= handling to generic kernel") moved reboot= handling to generic code. In the process it also removed the code in native_machine_shutdown() which are moving reboot process to reboot_cpu/cpu0. I guess that thought must have been that all reboot paths are calling migrate_to_reboot_cpu(), so we don't need this special handling. But kexec reboot path (kernel_kexec()) is not calling migrate_to_reboot_cpu() so above change broke kexec. Now reboot can happen on non-boot cpu and when INIT is sent in second kerneo to bring up BP, it brings down the machine. So start calling migrate_to_reboot_cpu() in kexec reboot path to avoid this problem. Bisected by WANG Chao.

This patch touches the RT group scheduling case. Functions inc_rt_prio_smp() and dec_rt_prio_smp() change (global) rq's priority, while rt_rq passed to them may be not the top-level rt_rq. This is wrong, because changing of priority on a child level does not guarantee that the priority is the highest all over the rq. So, this leak makes RT balancing unusable. The short example: the task having the highest priority among all rq's RT tasks (no one other task has the same priority) are waking on a throttle rt_rq. The rq's cpupri is set to the task's priority equivalent, but real rq->rt.highest_prio.curr is less. The patch below fixes the problem.

Commit 42eb088e (sched: Avoid NULL dereference on sd_busy) corrected a NULL dereference on sd_busy but the fix also altered what scheduling domain it used for the 'sd_llc' percpu variable. One impact of this is that a task selecting a runqueue may consider idle CPUs that are not cache siblings as candidates for running. Tasks are then running on CPUs that are not cache hot. This was found through bisection where ebizzy threads were not seeing equal performance and it looked like a scheduling fairness issue. This patch mitigates but does not completely fix the problem on all machines tested implying there may be an additional bug or a common root cause. Here are the average range of performance seen by individual ebizzy threads.

Ftrace currently initializes only the online CPUs. This implementation has two problems: - If we online a CPU after we enable the function profile, and then run the test, we will lose the trace information on that CPU. Steps to reproduce: # echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online # cd <debugfs>/tracing/ # echo <some function name> >> set_ftrace_filter # echo 1 > function_profile_enabled # echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online # run test - If we offline a CPU before we enable the function profile, we will not clear the trace information when we enable the function profile. It will trouble the users. Steps to reproduce: # cd <debugfs>/tracing/ # echo <some function name> >> set_ftrace_filter # echo 1 > function_profile_enabled # run test # cat trace_stat/function* # echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online # echo 0 > function_profile_enabled # echo 1 > function_profile_enabled # cat trace_stat/function* # run test # cat trace_stat/function* So it is better that we initialize the ftrace profiler for each possible cpu every time we enable the function profile instead of just the online ones.

Fix the gathering of certificates from both the source tree and the build tree to correctly calculate the pathnames of all the certificates. The problem was that if the default generated cert, signing_key.x509, didn't exist then it would not have a path attached and if it did, it would have a path attached. This means that the contents of kernel/.x509.list would change between the first compilation in a directory and the second. After the second it would remain stable because the signing_key.x509 file exists. The consequence was that the kernel would get relinked unconditionally on the second recompilation. The second recompilation would also show something like this: X.509 certificate list changed CERTS kernel/x509_certificate_list - Including cert /home/torvalds/v2.6/linux/signing_key.x509 AS kernel/system_certificates.o LD kernel/built-in.o which is why the relink would happen. Unfortunately, it isn't a simple matter of just sticking a path on the front of the filename of the certificate in the build directory as make can't then work out how to build it. So the path has to be prepended to the name for sorting and duplicate elimination and then removed for the make rule if it is in the build tree.

When debugging the read-only hugepage case, I was confused by the fact that get_futex_key() did an access_ok() only for the non-shared futex case, since the user address checking really isn't in any way specific to the private key handling. Now, it turns out that the shared key handling does effectively do the equivalent checks inside get_user_pages_fast() (it doesn't actually check the address range on x86, but does check the page protections for being a user page). So it wasn't actually a bug, but the fact that we treat the address differently for private and shared futexes threw me for a loop. Just move the check up, so that it gets done for both cases. Also, use the 'rw' parameter for the type, even if it doesn't actually matter any more (it's a historical artifact of the old racy i386 "page faults from kernel space don't check write protections").

The hugepage code had the exact same bug that regular pages had in commit 7485d0d3 ("futexes: Remove rw parameter from get_futex_key()"). The regular page case was fixed by commit 9ea71503 ("futex: Fix regression with read only mappings"), but the transparent hugepage case (added in a5b338f2: "thp: update futex compound knowledge") case remained broken. Found by Dave Jones and his trinity tool.

Christian suffers from a bad BIOS that wrecks his i5's TSC sync. This results in him occasionally seeing time going backwards - which crashes the scheduler ... Most of our time accounting can actually handle that except the most common one; the tick time update of sched_fair. There is a further problem with that code; previously we assumed that because we get a tick every TICK_NSEC our time delta could never exceed 32bits and math was simpler. However, ever since Frederic managed to get NO_HZ_FULL merged; this is no longer the case since now a task can run for a long time indeed without getting a tick. It only takes about ~4.2 seconds to overflow our u32 in nanoseconds. This means we not only need to better deal with time going backwards; but also means we need to be able to deal with large deltas. This patch reworks the entire code and uses mul_u64_u32_shr() as proposed by Andy a long while ago. We express our virtual time scale factor in a u32 multiplier and shift right and the 32bit mul_u64_u32_shr() implementation reduces to a single 32x32->64 multiply if the time delta is still short (common case). For 64bit a 64x64->128 multiply can be used if ARCH_SUPPORTS_INT128.

Apart from data-type specific alignment constraints, there are also architecture-specific alignment requirements. For example, on s390 symbols must be on even addresses implying a 2-byte alignment. If the system_certificate_list_end symbol is on an odd address and if this address is loaded, the least-significant bit is ignored. As a result, the load_system_certificate_list() fails to load the certificates because of a wrong certificate length calculation. To be safe, align system_certificate_list on an 8-byte boundary. Also improve the length calculation of the system_certificate_list content. Introduce a system_certificate_list_size (8-byte aligned because of unsigned long) variable that stores the length. Let the linker calculate this size by introducing a start and end label for the certificate content.

Add a flag to tell the PCI subsystem that kernel is shutting down in preparation to kexec a kernel. Add code in PCI subsystem to use this flag to clear Bus Master bit on PCI devices only in case of kexec reboot. This fixes a power-off problem on Acer Aspire V5-573G and likely other machines and avoids any other issues caused by clearing Bus Master bit on PCI devices in normal shutdown path. The problem was introduced by b566a22c ("PCI: disable Bus Master on PCI device shutdown").

It has been reported that boot up with FTRACE_SELFTEST enabled can take a very long time. There can be stalls of over a minute. This was tracked down to the synchronize_sched() called when a system call event is disabled. As the self tests enable and disable thousands of events, this makes the synchronize_sched() get called thousands of times. The synchornize_sched() was added with d562aff9 "tracing: Add support for SOFT_DISABLE to syscall events" which caused this regression (added in 3.13-rc1). The synchronize_sched() is to protect against the events being accessed when a tracer instance is being deleted. When an instance is being deleted all the events associated to it are unregistered. The synchronize_sched() makes sure that no more users are running when it finishes. Instead of calling synchronize_sched() for all syscall events, we only need to call it once, after the events are unregistered and before the instance is deleted. The event_mutex is held during this action to prevent new users from enabling events.

If a cgroup file implements either read_map() or read_seq_string(), such file is served using seq_file by overriding file->f_op to cgroup_seqfile_operations, which also overrides the release method to single_release() from cgroup_file_release(). Because cgroup_file_open() didn't use to acquire any resources, this used to be fine, but since f7d58818 ("cgroup: pin cgroup_subsys_state when opening a cgroupfs file"), cgroup_file_open() pins the css (cgroup_subsys_state) which is put by cgroup_file_release(). The patch forgot to update the release path for seq_files and each open/release cycle leaks a css reference. Fix it by updating cgroup_file_release() to also handle seq_files and using it for seq_file release path too. Signed-off-by: NTejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # v3.12

This is an actual deadlock because an interrupt doing an allocation will hit get_mems_allowed()->...->__read_seqcount_begin(), which will spin forever waiting for the write side to complete.

Add a new function to the scheduling class interface. It is called at the end of a context switch, if the prev task is in TASK_DEAD state. It will be useful for the scheduling classes that want to be notified when one of their tasks dies, e.g. to perform some cleanup actions, such as SCHED_DEADLINE.

load_idx is used in find_idlest_group but initialized in select_task_rq_fair even when not used.

schedule_debug() ignores in_atomic() if prev->exit_state != 0. This is not what we want, ->exit_state is set by exit_notify() but we should complain until the task does the last schedule() in TASK_DEAD. See also 7407251a "PF_DEAD cleanup", I think this ancient commit explains why schedule() had to rely on ->exit_state, until that commit exit_notify() disabled preemption and set PF_DEAD which was used to detect the exiting task.

A zombie task obviously can't fork(), remove the unnecessary initialization of child->exit_state. It is zero anyway after dup_task_struct(). Note: copy_process() is huge and it has a lot of chaotic initializations, probably it makes sense to move them into the new helper called by dup_task_struct().

Tony reported that aa0d5326 ("ia64: Use preempt_schedule_irq") broke PREEMPT=n builds on ia64. Ok, wrapped my brain around it. I tripped over the magic asm foo which has a single need_resched check and schedule point for both sys call return and interrupt return. So you need the schedule_preempt_irq() for kernel preemption from interrupt return while on a normal syscall preemption a schedule would be sufficient. But using schedule_preempt_irq() is not harmful here in any way. It just sets the preempt_active bit also in cases where it would not be required. Even on preempt=n kernels adding the preempt_active bit is completely harmless. So instead of having an extra function, moving the existing one out of the ifdef PREEMPT looks like the sanest thing to do. It would also allow getting rid of various other sti/schedule/cli asm magic in other archs.
