      jump_label: Annotate entries that operate on __init code earlier · 19483677
      由 Ard Biesheuvel 提交于 
      Jump table entries are mostly read-only, with the exception of the
init and module loader code that defuses entries that point into init
code when the code being referred to is freed.

For robustness, it would be better to move these entries into the
ro_after_init section, but clearing the 'code' member of each jump
table entry referring to init code at module load time races with the
module_enable_ro() call that remaps the ro_after_init section read
only, so we'd like to do it earlier.

So given that whether such an entry refers to init code can be decided
much earlier, we can pull this check forward. Since we may still need
the code entry at this point, let's switch to setting a low bit in the
'key' member just like we do to annotate the default state of a jump
table entry.

      init: rename and re-order boot_cpu_state_init() · b5b1404d
      由 Linus Torvalds 提交于 
      This is purely a preparatory patch for upcoming changes during the 4.19
merge window.

We have a function called "boot_cpu_state_init()" that isn't really
about the bootup cpu state: that is done much earlier by the similarly
named "boot_cpu_init()" (note lack of "state" in name).

This function initializes some hotplug CPU state, and needs to run after
the percpu data has been properly initialized.  It even has a comment to
that effect.

Except it _doesn't_ actually run after the percpu data has been properly
initialized.  On x86 it happens to do that, but on at least arm and
arm64, the percpu base pointers are initialized by the arch-specific
'smp_prepare_boot_cpu()' hook, which ran _after_ boot_cpu_state_init().

This had some unexpected results, and in particular we have a patch
pending for the merge window that did the obvious cleanup of using
'this_cpu_write()' in the cpu hotplug init code:

  -       per_cpu_ptr(&cpuhp_state, smp_processor_id())->state = CPUHP_ONLINE;
  +       this_cpu_write(cpuhp_state.state, CPUHP_ONLINE);

which is obviously the right thing to do.  Except because of the
ordering issue, it actually failed miserably and unexpectedly on arm64.

So this just fixes the ordering, and changes the name of the function to
be 'boot_cpu_hotplug_init()' to make it obvious that it's about cpu
hotplug state, because the core CPU state was supposed to have already
been done earlier.

Marked for stable, since the (not yet merged) patch that will show this
problem is marked for stable.

      signal: Don't restart fork when signals come in. · c3ad2c3b
      由 Eric W. Biederman 提交于 
      Wen Yang <wen.yang99@zte.com.cn> and majiang <ma.jiang@zte.com.cn>
report that a periodic signal received during fork can cause fork to
continually restart preventing an application from making progress.

The code was being overly pessimistic.  Fork needs to guarantee that a
signal sent to multiple processes is logically delivered before the
fork and just to the forking process or logically delivered after the
fork to both the forking process and it's newly spawned child.  For
signals like periodic timers that are always delivered to a single
process fork can safely complete and let them appear to logically
delivered after the fork().

While examining this issue I also discovered that fork today will miss
signals delivered to multiple processes during the fork and handled by
another thread.  Similarly the current code will also miss blocked
signals that are delivered to multiple process, as those signals will
not appear pending during fork.

Add a list of each thread that is currently forking, and keep on that
list a signal set that records all of the signals sent to multiple
processes.  When fork completes initialize the new processes
shared_pending signal set with it.  The calculate_sigpending function
will see those signals and set TIF_SIGPENDING causing the new task to
take the slow path to userspace to handle those signals.  Making it
appear as if those signals were received immediately after the fork.

It is not possible to send real time signals to multiple processes and
exceptions don't go to multiple processes, which means that that are
no signals sent to multiple processes that require siginfo.  This
means it is safe to not bother collecting siginfo on signals sent
during fork.

The sigaction of a child of fork is initially the same as the
sigaction of the parent process.  So a signal the parent ignores the
child will also initially ignore.  Therefore it is safe to ignore
signals sent to multiple processes and ignored by the forking process.

Signals sent to only a single process or only a single thread and delivered
during fork are treated as if they are received after the fork, and generally
not dealt with.  They won't cause any problems.

V2: Added removal from the multiprocess list on failure.
V3: Use -ERESTARTNOINTR directly
V4: - Don't queue both SIGCONT and SIGSTOP
    - Initialize signal_struct.multiprocess in init_task
    - Move setting of shared_pending to before the new task
      is visible to signals.  This prevents signals from comming
      in before shared_pending.signal is set to delayed.signal
      and being lost.
V5: - rework list add and delete to account for idle threads
v6: - Use sigdelsetmask when removing stop signals

      tracing: Centralize preemptirq tracepoints and unify their usage · c3bc8fd6
      由 Joel Fernandes (Google) 提交于 
      This patch detaches the preemptirq tracepoints from the tracers and
keeps it separate.

Advantages:
* Lockdep and irqsoff event can now run in parallel since they no longer
have their own calls.

* This unifies the usecase of adding hooks to an irqsoff and irqson
event, and a preemptoff and preempton event.
  3 users of the events exist:
  - Lockdep
  - irqsoff and preemptoff tracers
  - irqs and preempt trace events

The unification cleans up several ifdefs and makes the code in preempt
tracer and irqsoff tracers simpler. It gets rid of all the horrific
ifdeferry around PROVE_LOCKING and makes configuration of the different
users of the tracepoints more easy and understandable. It also gets rid
of the time_* function calls from the lockdep hooks used to call into
the preemptirq tracer which is not needed anymore. The negative delta in
lines of code in this patch is quite large too.

In the patch we introduce a new CONFIG option PREEMPTIRQ_TRACEPOINTS
as a single point for registering probes onto the tracepoints. With
this,
the web of config options for preempt/irq toggle tracepoints and its
users becomes:

 PREEMPT_TRACER   PREEMPTIRQ_EVENTS  IRQSOFF_TRACER PROVE_LOCKING
       |                 |     \         |           |
       \    (selects)    /      \        \ (selects) /
      TRACE_PREEMPT_TOGGLE       ----> TRACE_IRQFLAGS
                      \                  /
                       \ (depends on)   /
                     PREEMPTIRQ_TRACEPOINTS

Other than the performance tests mentioned in the previous patch, I also
ran the locking API test suite. I verified that all tests cases are
passing.

I also injected issues by not registering lockdep probes onto the
tracepoints and I see failures to confirm that the probes are indeed
working.

This series + lockdep probes not registered (just to inject errors):

      pid: Implement PIDTYPE_TGID · 6883f81a
      由 Eric W. Biederman 提交于 
      Everywhere except in the pid array we distinguish between a tasks pid and
a tasks tgid (thread group id).  Even in the enumeration we want that
distinction sometimes so we have added __PIDTYPE_TGID.  With leader_pid
we almost have an implementation of PIDTYPE_TGID in struct signal_struct.

Add PIDTYPE_TGID as a first class member of the pid_type enumeration and
into the pids array.  Then remove the __PIDTYPE_TGID special case and the
leader_pid in signal_struct.

The net size increase is just an extra pointer added to struct pid and
an extra pair of pointers of an hlist_node added to task_struct.

The effect on code maintenance is the removal of a number of special
cases today and the potential to remove many more special cases as
PIDTYPE_TGID gets used to it's fullest.  The long term potential
is allowing zombie thread group leaders to exit, which will remove
a lot more special cases in the code.

      To access these fields the code always has to go to group leader so
going to signal struct is no loss and is actually a fundamental simplification.

This saves a little bit of memory by only allocating the pid pointer array
once instead of once for every thread, and even better this removes a
few potential races caused by the fact that group_leader can be changed
by de_thread, while signal_struct can not.

      kbuild: Add build salt to the kernel and modules · 9afb719e
      由 Laura Abbott 提交于 
      In Fedora, the debug information is packaged separately (foo-debuginfo) and
can be installed separately. There's been a long standing issue where only
one version of a debuginfo info package can be installed at a time. There's
been an effort for Fedora for parallel debuginfo to rectify this problem.

Part of the requirement to allow parallel debuginfo to work is that build ids
are unique between builds. The existing upstream rpm implementation ensures
this by re-calculating the build-id using the version and release as a
seed. This doesn't work 100% for the kernel because of the vDSO which is
its own binary and doesn't get updated when embedded.

Fix this by adding some data in an ELF note for both the kernel and modules.
The data is controlled via a Kconfig option so distributions can set it
to an appropriate value to ensure uniqueness between builds.

      rseq: Introduce restartable sequences system call · d7822b1e
      由 Mathieu Desnoyers 提交于 
      Expose a new system call allowing each thread to register one userspace
memory area to be used as an ABI between kernel and user-space for two
purposes: user-space restartable sequences and quick access to read the
current CPU number value from user-space.

* Restartable sequences (per-cpu atomics)

Restartables sequences allow user-space to perform update operations on
per-cpu data without requiring heavy-weight atomic operations.

The restartable critical sections (percpu atomics) work has been started
by Paul Turner and Andrew Hunter. It lets the kernel handle restart of
critical sections. [1] [2] The re-implementation proposed here brings a
few simplifications to the ABI which facilitates porting to other
architectures and speeds up the user-space fast path.

Here are benchmarks of various rseq use-cases.

Test hardware:

arm32: ARMv7 Processor rev 4 (v7l) "Cubietruck", 2-core
x86-64: Intel E5-2630 v3@2.40GHz, 16-core, hyperthreading

The following benchmarks were all performed on a single thread.

* Per-CPU statistic counter increment

                getcpu+atomic (ns/op)    rseq (ns/op)    speedup
arm32:                344.0                 31.4          11.0
x86-64:                15.3                  2.0           7.7

* LTTng-UST: write event 32-bit header, 32-bit payload into tracer

x86-64:               117.4                   98.0         1.2

x86-64:                53.4                  28.6          1.9

* jemalloc memory allocator adapted to use rseq

Using rseq with per-cpu memory pools in jemalloc at Facebook (based on
rseq 2016 implementation):

The production workload response-time has 1-2% gain avg. latency, and
the P99 overall latency drops by 2-3%.

* Reading the current CPU number

Speeding up reading the current CPU number on which the caller thread is
running is done by keeping the current CPU number up do date within the
cpu_id field of the memory area registered by the thread. This is done
by making scheduler preemption set the TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME flag on the
current thread. Upon return to user-space, a notify-resume handler
updates the current CPU value within the registered user-space memory
area. User-space can then read the current CPU number directly from
memory.

Keeping the current cpu id in a memory area shared between kernel and
user-space is an improvement over current mechanisms available to read
the current CPU number, which has the following benefits over
alternative approaches:

- 35x speedup on ARM vs system call through glibc
- 20x speedup on x86 compared to calling glibc, which calls vdso
  executing a "lsl" instruction,
- 14x speedup on x86 compared to inlined "lsl" instruction,
- Unlike vdso approaches, this cpu_id value can be read from an inline
  assembly, which makes it a useful building block for restartable
  sequences.
- The approach of reading the cpu id through memory mapping shared
  between kernel and user-space is portable (e.g. ARM), which is not the
  case for the lsl-based x86 vdso.

On x86, yet another possible approach would be to use the gs segment
selector to point to user-space per-cpu data. This approach performs
similarly to the cpu id cache, but it has two disadvantages: it is
not portable, and it is incompatible with existing applications already
using the gs segment selector for other purposes.

Benchmarking various approaches for reading the current CPU number:

ARMv7 Processor rev 4 (v7l)

- Read using gs segment selector:                           0.8 ns
- "lsl" inline assembly:                                   13.0 ns
- glibc 2.19-0ubuntu6 getcpu:                              16.6 ns
- getcpu system call:                                      53.9 ns

- Speed (benchmark taken on v8 of patchset)

Running 10 runs of hackbench -l 100000 seems to indicate, contrary to
expectations, that enabling CONFIG_RSEQ slightly accelerates the
scheduler:

Configuration: 2 sockets * 8-core Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2630 v3 @
2.40GHz (directly on hardware, hyperthreading disabled in BIOS, energy
saving disabled in BIOS, turboboost disabled in BIOS, cpuidle.off=1
kernel parameter), with a Linux v4.6 defconfig+localyesconfig,
restartable sequences series applied.

* CONFIG_RSEQ=n

avg.:      41.37 s
std.dev.:   0.36 s

* CONFIG_RSEQ=y

avg.:      40.46 s
std.dev.:   0.33 s

- Size

On x86-64, between CONFIG_RSEQ=n/y, the text size increase of vmlinux is
567 bytes, and the data size increase of vmlinux is 5696 bytes.

      kconfig: reference environment variables directly and remove 'option env=' · 104daea1
      由 Masahiro Yamada 提交于 
      To get access to environment variables, Kconfig needs to define a
symbol using "option env=" syntax.  It is tedious to add a symbol entry
for each environment variable given that we need to define much more
such as 'CC', 'AS', 'srctree' etc. to evaluate the compiler capability
in Kconfig.

Adding '$' for symbol references is grammatically inconsistent.
Looking at the code, the symbols prefixed with 'S' are expanded by:
 - conf_expand_value()
   This is used to expand 'arch/$ARCH/defconfig' and 'defconfig_list'
 - sym_expand_string_value()
   This is used to expand strings in 'source' and 'mainmenu'

All of them are fixed values independent of user configuration.  So,
they can be changed into the direct expansion instead of symbols.

This change makes the code much cleaner.  The bounce symbols 'SRCARCH',
'ARCH', 'SUBARCH', 'KERNELVERSION' are gone.

sym_init() hard-coding 'UNAME_RELEASE' is also gone.  'UNAME_RELEASE'
should be replaced with an environment variable.

ARCH_DEFCONFIG is a normal symbol, so it should be simply referenced
without '$' prefix.

The new syntax is addicted by Make.  The variable reference needs
parentheses, like $(FOO), but you can omit them for single-letter
variables, like $F.  Yet, in Makefiles, people tend to use the
parenthetical form for consistency / clarification.

At this moment, only the environment variable is supported, but I will
extend the concept of 'variable' later on.

The variables are expanded in the lexer so we can simplify the token
handling on the parser side.

For example, the following code works.

[Example code]

  config MY_TOOLCHAIN_LIST
          string
          default "My tools: CC=$(CC), AS=$(AS), CPP=$(CPP)"

[Result]

  $ make -s alldefconfig && tail -n 1 .config
  CONFIG_MY_TOOLCHAIN_LIST="My tools: CC=gcc, AS=as, CPP=gcc -E"

      kbuild: remove CONFIG_CROSS_COMPILE support · f1089c92
      由 Masahiro Yamada 提交于 
      Kbuild provides a couple of ways to specify CROSS_COMPILE:

[1] Command line
[2] Environment
[3] arch/*/Makefile (only some architectures)
[4] CONFIG_CROSS_COMPILE

[4] is problematic for the compiler capability tests in Kconfig.
CONFIG_CROSS_COMPILE allows users to change the compiler prefix from
'make menuconfig', etc.  It means, the compiler options would have
to be all re-calculated everytime CONFIG_CROSS_COMPILE is changed.

To avoid complexity and performance issues, I'd like to evaluate
the shell commands statically, i.e. only parsing Kconfig files.

I guess the majority is [1] or [2].  Currently, there are only
5 defconfig files that specify CONFIG_CROSS_COMPILE.
  arch/arm/configs/lpc18xx_defconfig
  arch/hexagon/configs/comet_defconfig
  arch/nds32/configs/defconfig
