The affinity of managed interrupts is completely handled in the kernel and cannot be changed via the /proc/irq/* interfaces from user space. As the kernel tries to spread out interrupts evenly accross CPUs on x86 to prevent vector exhaustion, it can happen that a managed interrupt whose affinity mask contains both isolated and housekeeping CPUs is routed to an isolated CPU. As a consequence IO submitted on a housekeeping CPU causes interrupts on the isolated CPU. Add a new sub-parameter 'managed_irq' for 'isolcpus' and the corresponding logic in the interrupt affinity selection code. The subparameter indicates to the interrupt affinity selection logic that it should try to avoid the above scenario. This isolation is best effort and only effective if the automatically assigned interrupt mask of a device queue contains isolated and housekeeping CPUs. If housekeeping CPUs are online then such interrupts are directed to the housekeeping CPU so that IO submitted on the housekeeping CPU cannot disturb the isolated CPU. If a queue's affinity mask contains only isolated CPUs then this parameter has no effect on the interrupt routing decision, though interrupts are only happening when tasks running on those isolated CPUs submit IO. IO submitted on housekeeping CPUs has no influence on those queues. If the affinity mask contains both housekeeping and isolated CPUs, but none of the contained housekeeping CPUs is online, then the interrupt is also routed to an isolated CPU. Interrupts are only delivered when one of the isolated CPUs in the affinity mask submits IO. If one of the contained housekeeping CPUs comes online, the CPU hotplug logic migrates the interrupt automatically back to the upcoming housekeeping CPU. Depending on the type of interrupt controller, this can require that at least one interrupt is delivered to the isolated CPU in order to complete the migration.

Formalize, in kernel documentation, the patch acceptance policy for arch/riscv. In summary, it states that as maintainers, we plan to only accept patches for new modules or extensions that have been frozen or ratified by the RISC-V Foundation. We've been following these guidelines for the past few months. In the meantime, we've received quite a bit of feedback that it would be helpful to have these guidelines formally documented. Based on a suggestion from Matthew Wilcox, we also add a link to this file to Documentation/process/index.rst, to make this document easier to find. The format of this document has also been changed to align to the format outlined in the maintainer entry profiles, in accordance with comments from Jon Corbet and Dan Williams.

Make the layout of kcov_remote_arg the same for 32-bit and 64-bit code. This makes it more convenient to write userspace apps that can be compiled into 32-bit or 64-bit binaries and still work with the same 64-bit kernel. Also use proper __u32 types in uapi headers instead of unsigned ints.

Kbuild descends into a directory by either 'y' or 'm', but there is an important difference. Kbuild combines the built-in objects into built-in.a in each directory. The built-in.a in the directory visited by obj-y is merged into the built-in.a in the parent directory. This merge happens recursively when Kbuild is ascending back towards the top directory, then built-in objects are linked into vmlinux eventually. This works properly only when the Makefile specifying obj-y is reachable by the chain of obj-y. On the other hand, Kbuild does not take built-in.a from the directory visited by obj-m. This it, all the objects in that directory are supposed to be modular. If Kbuild descends into a directory by obj-m, but the Makefile in the sub-directory specifies obj-y, those objects are just left orphan. The current statement "Kbuild only uses this information to decide that it needs to visit the directory" is misleading. Clarify the difference.

Patch series " kcov: collect coverage from usb and vhost", v3. This patchset extends kcov to allow collecting coverage from backgound kernel threads. This extension requires custom annotations for each of the places where coverage collection is desired. This patchset implements this for hub events in the USB subsystem and for vhost workers. See the first patch description for details about the kcov extension. The other two patches apply this kcov extension to USB and vhost. Examples of other subsystems that might potentially benefit from this when custom annotations are added (the list is based on process_one_work() callers for bugs recently reported by syzbot): 1. fs: writeback wb_workfn() worker, 2. net: addrconf_dad_work()/addrconf_verify_work() workers, 3. net: neigh_periodic_work() worker, 4. net/p9: p9_write_work()/p9_read_work() workers, 5. block: blk_mq_run_work_fn() worker. These patches have been used to enable coverage-guided USB fuzzing with syzkaller for the last few years, see the details here: https://github.com/google/syzkaller/blob/master/docs/linux/external_fuzzing_usb.md This patchset has been pushed to the public Linux kernel Gerrit instance: https://linux-review.googlesource.com/c/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux/+/1524 This patch (of 3): Add background thread coverage collection ability to kcov. With KCOV_ENABLE coverage is collected only for syscalls that are issued from the current process. With KCOV_REMOTE_ENABLE it's possible to collect coverage for arbitrary parts of the kernel code, provided that those parts are annotated with kcov_remote_start()/kcov_remote_stop(). This allows to collect coverage from two types of kernel background threads: the global ones, that are spawned during kernel boot in a limited number of instances (e.g. one USB hub_event() worker thread is spawned per USB HCD); and the local ones, that are spawned when a user interacts with some kernel interface (e.g. vhost workers). To enable collecting coverage from a global background thread, a unique global handle must be assigned and passed to the corresponding kcov_remote_start() call. Then a userspace process can pass a list of such handles to the KCOV_REMOTE_ENABLE ioctl in the handles array field of the kcov_remote_arg struct. This will attach the used kcov device to the code sections, that are referenced by those handles. Since there might be many local background threads spawned from different userspace processes, we can't use a single global handle per annotation. Instead, the userspace process passes a non-zero handle through the common_handle field of the kcov_remote_arg struct. This common handle gets saved to the kcov_handle field in the current task_struct and needs to be passed to the newly spawned threads via custom annotations. Those threads should in turn be annotated with kcov_remote_start()/kcov_remote_stop(). Internally kcov stores handles as u64 integers. The top byte of a handle is used to denote the id of a subsystem that this handle belongs to, and the lower 4 bytes are used to denote the id of a thread instance within that subsystem. A reserved value 0 is used as a subsystem id for common handles as they don't belong to a particular subsystem. The bytes 4-7 are currently reserved and must be zero. In the future the number of bytes used for the subsystem or handle ids might be increased. When a particular userspace process collects coverage by via a common handle, kcov will collect coverage for each code section that is annotated to use the common handle obtained as kcov_handle from the current task_struct. However non common handles allow to collect coverage selectively from different subsystems.

The recent commit 81d2c6f8 ("kasan: support instrumented bitops combined with generic bitops"), split the KASAN instrumented bitops into separate headers for atomic, non-atomic and locking operations. This was done to allow arches to include just the instrumented bitops they need, while also using some of the generic bitops in asm-generic/bitops (which are automatically instrumented). The generic bitops are already split into atomic, non-atomic and locking headers. This split required an update to kernel-api.rst because it included include/asm-generic/bitops-instrumented.h, which no longer exists. So now kernel-api.rst includes all three instrumented headers to get the definitions for all the bitops. When adding the three headers it seemed sensible to add sub-headings for each, ie. "Atomic", "Non-atomic" and "Locking". The confusion is that test_bit() is (and always has been) in non-atomic.h, but is documented elsewhere (atomic_bitops.txt) as being atomic. So having it appear under the "Non-atomic" heading is possibly confusing. Probably test_bit() should move from bitops/non-atomic.h to atomic.h, but that has flow on effects. For now just remove the newly added sub-headings in the documentation, so we at least aren't adding to the confusion about whether test_bit() is atomic or not.

Patch series "kasan: support backing vmalloc space with real shadow memory", v11. Currently, vmalloc space is backed by the early shadow page. This means that kasan is incompatible with VMAP_STACK. This series provides a mechanism to back vmalloc space with real, dynamically allocated memory. I have only wired up x86, because that's the only currently supported arch I can work with easily, but it's very easy to wire up other architectures, and it appears that there is some work-in-progress code to do this on arm64 and s390. This has been discussed before in the context of VMAP_STACK: - https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=202009 - https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/7/22/198 - https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/7/19/822 In terms of implementation details: Most mappings in vmalloc space are small, requiring less than a full page of shadow space. Allocating a full shadow page per mapping would therefore be wasteful. Furthermore, to ensure that different mappings use different shadow pages, mappings would have to be aligned to KASAN_SHADOW_SCALE_SIZE * PAGE_SIZE. Instead, share backing space across multiple mappings. Allocate a backing page when a mapping in vmalloc space uses a particular page of the shadow region. This page can be shared by other vmalloc mappings later on. We hook in to the vmap infrastructure to lazily clean up unused shadow memory. Testing with test_vmalloc.sh on an x86 VM with 2 vCPUs shows that: - Turning on KASAN, inline instrumentation, without vmalloc, introuduces a 4.1x-4.2x slowdown in vmalloc operations. - Turning this on introduces the following slowdowns over KASAN: * ~1.76x slower single-threaded (test_vmalloc.sh performance) * ~2.18x slower when both cpus are performing operations simultaneously (test_vmalloc.sh sequential_test_order=1) This is unfortunate but given that this is a debug feature only, not the end of the world. The benchmarks are also a stress-test for the vmalloc subsystem: they're not indicative of an overall 2x slowdown! This patch (of 4): Hook into vmalloc and vmap, and dynamically allocate real shadow memory to back the mappings. Most mappings in vmalloc space are small, requiring less than a full page of shadow space. Allocating a full shadow page per mapping would therefore be wasteful. Furthermore, to ensure that different mappings use different shadow pages, mappings would have to be aligned to KASAN_SHADOW_SCALE_SIZE * PAGE_SIZE. Instead, share backing space across multiple mappings. Allocate a backing page when a mapping in vmalloc space uses a particular page of the shadow region. This page can be shared by other vmalloc mappings later on. We hook in to the vmap infrastructure to lazily clean up unused shadow memory. To avoid the difficulties around swapping mappings around, this code expects that the part of the shadow region that covers the vmalloc space will not be covered by the early shadow page, but will be left unmapped. This will require changes in arch-specific code. This allows KASAN with VMAP_STACK, and may be helpful for architectures that do not have a separate module space (e.g. powerpc64, which I am currently working on). It also allows relaxing the module alignment back to PAGE_SIZE. Testing with test_vmalloc.sh on an x86 VM with 2 vCPUs shows that: - Turning on KASAN, inline instrumentation, without vmalloc, introuduces a 4.1x-4.2x slowdown in vmalloc operations. - Turning this on introduces the following slowdowns over KASAN: * ~1.76x slower single-threaded (test_vmalloc.sh performance) * ~2.18x slower when both cpus are performing operations simultaneously (test_vmalloc.sh sequential_test_order=3D1) This is unfortunate but given that this is a debug feature only, not the end of the world.

This has confused a significant number of people using cgroups inside Facebook, and some of those outside as well judging by posts like this[0] (although it's not a problem unique to cgroup v2). If shmem handling in particular becomes more coherent at some point in the future -- although that seems unlikely now -- we can change the wording here.
