      kthread: Simplify kthread_park() completion · f83ee19b
      由 Peter Zijlstra 提交于 
      Oleg explains the reason we could hit park+park is that
smpboot_update_cpumask_percpu_thread()'s

  for_each_cpu_and(cpu, &tmp, cpu_online_mask)
	smpboot_park_kthread();

turns into:

  for ((cpu) = 0; (cpu) < 1; (cpu)++, (void)mask, (void)and)
	smpboot_park_kthread();

on UP, ignoring the mask. But since we just completely removed that
function, this is no longer relevant.

So revert commit:

      Oleg suggested to replace the "watchdog/%u" threads with
cpu_stop_work. That removes one thread per CPU while at the same time
fixes softlockup vs SCHED_DEADLINE.

But more importantly, it does away with the single
smpboot_update_cpumask_percpu_thread() user, which allows
cleanups/shrinkage of the smpboot interface.

Furthermore, Oleg noticed that the whole scheduler TASK_PARKED
handling is buggered because the TASK_DEAD thing is done with
preemption disabled, the current code can still complete early on
preemption :/

So basically revert that earlier fix and go with a variant of the
alternative mentioned in the commit. Promote TASK_PARKED to special
state to avoid the store-store issue on task->state leading to the
WARN in kthread_unpark() -> __kthread_bind().

But in addition, add wait_task_inactive() to kthread_park() to ensure
the task really is PARKED when we return from kthread_park(). This
avoids the whole kthread still gets migrated nonsense -- although it
would be really good to get this done differently.

      sched/util_est: Fix util_est_dequeue() for throttled cfs_rq · 3482d98b
      由 Vincent Guittot 提交于 
      When a cfs_rq is throttled, parent cfs_rq->nr_running is decreased and
everything happens at cfs_rq level. Currently util_est stays unchanged
in such case and it keeps accounting the utilization of throttled tasks.
This can somewhat make sense as we don't dequeue tasks but only throttled
cfs_rq.

If a task of another group is enqueued/dequeued and root cfs_rq becomes
idle during the dequeue, util_est will be cleared whereas it was
accounting util_est of throttled tasks before. So the behavior of util_est
is not always the same regarding throttled tasks and depends of side
activity. Furthermore, util_est will not be updated when the cfs_rq is
unthrottled as everything happens at cfs_rq level. Main results is that
util_est will stay null whereas we now have running tasks. We have to wait
for the next dequeue/enqueue of the previously throttled tasks to get an
up to date util_est.

Remove the assumption that cfs_rq's estimated utilization of a CPU is 0
if there is no running task so the util_est of a task remains until the
latter is dequeued even if its cfs_rq has been throttled.

      When period gets restarted after some idle time, start_cfs_bandwidth()
doesn't update the expiration information, expire_cfs_rq_runtime() will
see cfs_rq->runtime_expires smaller than rq clock and go to the clock
drift logic, wasting needless CPU cycles on the scheduler hot path.

Update the global expiration in start_cfs_bandwidth() to avoid frequent

      sched/fair: Fix bandwidth timer clock drift condition · 512ac999
      由 Xunlei Pang 提交于 
      I noticed that cgroup task groups constantly get throttled even
if they have low CPU usage, this causes some jitters on the response
time to some of our business containers when enabling CPU quotas.

It's very simple to reproduce:

  mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/test
  cd /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/test
  echo 100000 > cpu.cfs_quota_us
  echo $$ > tasks

then repeat:

  cat cpu.stat | grep nr_throttled  # nr_throttled will increase steadily

After some analysis, we found that cfs_rq::runtime_remaining will
be cleared by expire_cfs_rq_runtime() due to two equal but stale
"cfs_{b|q}->runtime_expires" after period timer is re-armed.

The current condition to judge clock drift in expire_cfs_rq_runtime()
is wrong, the two runtime_expires are actually the same when clock
drift happens, so this condtion can never hit. The orginal design was
correctly done by this commit:

  a9cf55b2 ("sched: Expire invalid runtime")

... but was changed to be the current implementation due to its locking bug.

This patch introduces another way, it adds a new field in both structures
cfs_rq and cfs_bandwidth to record the expiration update sequence, and
uses them to figure out if clock drift happens (true if they are equal).

      sched/rt: Fix call to cpufreq_update_util() · 296b2ffe
      由 Vincent Guittot 提交于 
      With commit:

  8f111bc3 ("cpufreq/schedutil: Rewrite CPUFREQ_RT support")

the schedutil governor uses rq->rt.rt_nr_running to detect whether an
RT task is currently running on the CPU and to set frequency to max
if necessary.

cpufreq_update_util() is called in enqueue/dequeue_top_rt_rq() but
rq->rt.rt_nr_running has not been updated yet when dequeue_top_rt_rq() is
called so schedutil still considers that an RT task is running when the
last task is dequeued. The update of rq->rt.rt_nr_running happens later
in dequeue_rt_stack().

In fact, we can take advantage of the sequence that the dequeue then
re-enqueue rt entities when a rt task is enqueued or dequeued;
As a result enqueue_top_rt_rq() is always called when a task is
enqueued or dequeued and also when groups are throttled or unthrottled.
The only place that not use enqueue_top_rt_rq() is when root rt_rq is
throttled.

      sched/nohz: Skip remote tick on idle task entirely · d9c0ffca

      Some people have reported that the warning in sched_tick_remote()

	 ret_from_fork+0x35/0x40

This happens when the remote tick applies on an idle task. Usually the
idle_cpu() check avoids that, but it is performed before we lock the
runqueue and it is therefore racy. It was intended to be that way in
order to prevent from useless runqueue locks since idle task tick
callback is a no-op.

Now if the racy check slips out of our hands and we end up remotely
ticking an idle task, the empty task_tick_idle() is harmless. Still
it won't pass the WARN_ON_ONCE() test that ensures rq_clock_task() is
not too far from curr->se.exec_start because update_curr_idle() doesn't
update the exec_start value like other scheduler policies. Hence the
reported false positive.

So let's have another check, while the rq is locked, to make sure we
don't remote tick on an idle task. The lockless idle_cpu() still applies
to avoid unecessary rq lock contention.

      rseq: Avoid infinite recursion when delivering SIGSEGV · 784e0300
      由 Will Deacon 提交于 
      When delivering a signal to a task that is using rseq, we call into
__rseq_handle_notify_resume() so that the registers pushed in the
sigframe are updated to reflect the state of the restartable sequence
(for example, ensuring that the signal returns to the abort handler if
necessary).

However, if the rseq management fails due to an unrecoverable fault when
accessing userspace or certain combinations of RSEQ_CS_* flags, then we
will attempt to deliver a SIGSEGV. This has the potential for infinite
recursion if the rseq code continuously fails on signal delivery.

Avoid this problem by using force_sigsegv() instead of force_sig(), which
is explicitly designed to reset the SEGV handler to SIG_DFL in the case
of a recursive fault. In doing so, remove rseq_signal_deliver() from the
internal rseq API and have an optional struct ksignal * parameter to
rseq_handle_notify_resume() instead.

      sched/core / kcov: avoid kcov_area during task switch · 0ed557aa
      由 Mark Rutland 提交于 
      During a context switch, we first switch_mm() to the next task's mm,
then switch_to() that new task.  This means that vmalloc'd regions which
had previously been faulted in can transiently disappear in the context
of the prev task.

Functions instrumented by KCOV may try to access a vmalloc'd kcov_area
during this window, and as the fault handling code is instrumented, this
results in a recursive fault.

We must avoid accessing any kcov_area during this window.  We can do so
with a new flag in kcov_mode, set prior to switching the mm, and cleared
once the new task is live.  Since task_struct::kcov_mode isn't always a
specific enum kcov_mode value, this is made an unsigned int.

The manipulation is hidden behind kcov_{prepare,finish}_switch() helpers,
which are empty for !CONFIG_KCOV kernels.

The code uses macros because I can't use static inline functions without a
circular include dependency between <linux/sched.h> and <linux/kcov.h>,
since the definition of task_struct uses things defined in <linux/kcov.h>

      kcov: prefault the kcov_area · dc55daff
      由 Mark Rutland 提交于 
      On many architectures the vmalloc area is lazily faulted in upon first
access.  This is problematic for KCOV, as __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc
accesses the (vmalloc'd) kcov_area, and fault handling code may be
instrumented.  If an access to kcov_area faults, this will result in
mutual recursion through the fault handling code and
__sanitizer_cov_trace_pc(), eventually leading to stack corruption
and/or overflow.

We can avoid this by faulting in the kcov_area before
__sanitizer_cov_trace_pc() is permitted to access it.  Once it has been
faulted in, it will remain present in the process page tables, and will
not fault again.

      kcov: ensure irq code sees a valid area · c9484b98
      由 Mark Rutland 提交于 
      Patch series "kcov: fix unexpected faults".

These patches fix a few issues where KCOV code could trigger recursive
faults, discovered while debugging a patch enabling KCOV for arch/arm:

* On CONFIG_PREEMPT kernels, there's a small race window where
  __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc() can see a bogus kcov_area.

* Lazy faulting of the vmalloc area can cause mutual recursion between
  fault handling code and __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc().

* During the context switch, switching the mm can cause the kcov_area to
  be transiently unmapped.

These are prerequisites for enabling KCOV on arm, but the issues
themsevles are generic -- we just happen to avoid them by chance rather
than design on x86-64 and arm64.

This patch (of 3):

For kernels built with CONFIG_PREEMPT, some C code may execute before or
after the interrupt handler, while the hardirq count is zero.  In these
cases, in_task() can return true.

A task can be interrupted in the middle of a KCOV_DISABLE ioctl while it
resets the task's kcov data via kcov_task_init().  Instrumented code
executed during this period will call __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc(), and as
in_task() returns true, will inspect t->kcov_mode before trying to write
to t->kcov_area.

In kcov_init_task() we update t->kcov_{mode,area,size} with plain stores,
which may be re-ordered, torn, etc.  Thus __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc() may
see bogus values for any of these fields, and may attempt to write to
memory which is not mapped.

Let's avoid this by using WRITE_ONCE() to set t->kcov_mode, with a
barrier() to ensure this is ordered before we clear t->kov_{area,size}.
This ensures that any code execute while kcov_init_task() is preempted
will either see valid values for t->kcov_{area,size}, or will see that
t->kcov_mode is KCOV_MODE_DISABLED, and bail out without touching
t->kcov_area.

      mm: check for SIGKILL inside dup_mmap() loop · 655c79bb
      由 Tetsuo Handa 提交于 
      As a theoretical problem, dup_mmap() of an mm_struct with 60000+ vmas
can loop while potentially allocating memory, with mm->mmap_sem held for
write by current thread.  This is bad if current thread was selected as
an OOM victim, for current thread will continue allocations using memory
reserves while OOM reaper is unable to reclaim memory.

As an actually observable problem, it is not difficult to make OOM
reaper unable to reclaim memory if the OOM victim is blocked at
i_mmap_lock_write() in this loop.  Unfortunately, since nobody can
explain whether it is safe to use killable wait there, let's check for
SIGKILL before trying to allocate memory.  Even without an OOM event,
there is no point with continuing the loop from the beginning if current
thread is killed.

I tested with debug printk().  This patch should be safe because we
already fail if security_vm_enough_memory_mm() or
kmem_cache_alloc(GFP_KERNEL) fails and exit_mmap() handles it.

      kexec: yield to scheduler when loading kimage segments · a8311f64
      由 Jarrett Farnitano 提交于 
      Without yielding while loading kimage segments, a large initrd will
block all other work on the CPU performing the load until it is
completed.  For example loading an initrd of 200MB on a low power single
core system will lock up the system for a few seconds.

To increase system responsiveness to other tasks at that time, call
cond_resched() in both the crash kernel and normal kernel segment
loading loops.

I did run into a practical problem.  Hardware watchdogs on embedded
systems can have short timers on the order of seconds.  If the system is
locked up for a few seconds with only a single core available, the
watchdog may not be pet in a timely fashion.  If this happens, the
hardware watchdog will fire and reset the system.

This really only becomes a problem when you are working with a single
core, a decently sized initrd, and have a constrained hardware watchdog.

      kconfig: tinyconfig: remove stale stack protector fixups · a0f8c297
      由 Masahiro Yamada 提交于 
      Prior to commit 2a61f474 ("stack-protector: test compiler capability
in Kconfig and drop AUTO mode"), the stack protector was configured by
the choice of NONE, REGULAR, STRONG, AUTO.

tiny.config needed to explicitly set NONE because the default value of
choice, AUTO, did not produce the tiniest kernel.

Now that there are only two boolean symbols, STACKPROTECTOR and
STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG, they are naturally disabled by "make
allnoconfig", which "make tinyconfig" is based on.  Remove unnecessary
lines from the tiny.config fragment file.

      dma-mapping: move all DMA mapping code to kernel/dma · cf65a0f6
      由 Christoph Hellwig 提交于 
      Currently the code is split over various files with dma- prefixes in the
lib/ and drives/base directories, and the number of files keeps growing.
Move them into a single directory to keep the code together and remove
the file name prefixes.  To match the irq infrastructure this directory
is placed under the kernel/ directory.

      Kbuild: rename CC_STACKPROTECTOR[_STRONG] config variables · 050e9baa
      由 Linus Torvalds 提交于 
      The changes to automatically test for working stack protector compiler
support in the Kconfig files removed the special STACKPROTECTOR_AUTO
option that picked the strongest stack protector that the compiler
supported.

That was all a nice cleanup - it makes no sense to have the AUTO case
now that the Kconfig phase can just determine the compiler support
directly.

HOWEVER.

It also meant that doing "make oldconfig" would now _disable_ the strong
stackprotector if you had AUTO enabled, because in a legacy config file,
the sane stack protector configuration would look like

  CONFIG_HAVE_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y
  # CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_NONE is not set
  # CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_REGULAR is not set
  # CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG is not set
  CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_AUTO=y

and when you ran this through "make oldconfig" with the Kbuild changes,
it would ask you about the regular CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR (that had
been renamed from CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_REGULAR to just
CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR), but it would think that the STRONG version
used to be disabled (because it was really enabled by AUTO), and would
disable it in the new config, resulting in:

  CONFIG_HAVE_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y
  CONFIG_CC_HAS_STACKPROTECTOR_NONE=y
  CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y
  # CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG is not set
  CONFIG_CC_HAS_SANE_STACKPROTECTOR=y

That's dangerously subtle - people could suddenly find themselves with
the weaker stack protector setup without even realizing.

The solution here is to just rename not just the old RECULAR stack
protector option, but also the strong one.  This does that by just
removing the CC_ prefix entirely for the user choices, because it really
is not about the compiler support (the compiler support now instead
automatially impacts _visibility_ of the options to users).

This results in "make oldconfig" actually asking the user for their
choice, so that we don't have any silent subtle security model changes.
The end result would generally look like this:

  CONFIG_HAVE_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y
  CONFIG_CC_HAS_STACKPROTECTOR_NONE=y
  CONFIG_STACKPROTECTOR=y
  CONFIG_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG=y
  CONFIG_CC_HAS_SANE_STACKPROTECTOR=y

where the "CC_" versions really are about internal compiler
infrastructure, not the user selections.
