Relying on free_reserved_area() to call ftrace to free init memory proved to not be sufficient. The issue is that on x86, when debug_pagealloc is enabled, the init memory is not freed, but simply set as not present. Since ftrace was uninformed of this, starting function tracing still tries to update pages that are not present according to the page tables, causing ftrace to bug, as well as killing the kernel itself. Instead of relying on free_reserved_area(), have init/main.c call ftrace directly just before it frees the init memory. Then it needs to use __init_begin and __init_end to know where the init memory location is. Looking at all archs (and testing what I can), it appears that this should work for each of them.

And cacheflush.h is not a suitable location for rodata-test related things. Since they were in cacheflush.h, If someone change the state of CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA_TEST, It cause overhead of kernel build.

Commit 4a9d4b02 ("switch fput to task_work_add") implements a schedule_work() for completing fput(), but did not guarantee calling __fput() after unpacking initramfs. Because of this, there is a possibility that during boot a driver can see ETXTBSY when it tries to load a binary from initramfs as fput() is still pending on that binary. This patch makes sure that fput() is completed after unpacking initramfs and removes the call to flush_delayed_fput() in kernel_init() which happens very late after unpacking initramfs.

The IDR is very similar to the radix tree. It has some functionality that the radix tree did not have (alloc next free, cyclic allocation, a callback-based for_each, destroy tree), which is readily implementable on top of the radix tree. A few small changes were needed in order to use a tag to represent nodes with free space below them. More extensive changes were needed to support storing NULL as a valid entry in an IDR. Plain radix trees still interpret NULL as a not-present entry. The IDA is reimplemented as a client of the newly enhanced radix tree. As in the current implementation, it uses a bitmap at the last level of the tree.

Now that our crng uses chacha20, we can rely on its speedy characteristics for replacing MD5, while simultaneously achieving a higher security guarantee. Before the idea was to use these functions if you wanted random integers that aren't stupidly insecure but aren't necessarily secure either, a vague gray zone, that hopefully was "good enough" for its users. With chacha20, we can strengthen this claim, since either we're using an rdrand-like instruction, or we're using the same crng as /dev/urandom. And it's faster than what was before. We could have chosen to replace this with a SipHash-derived function, which might be slightly faster, but at the cost of having yet another RNG construction in the kernel. By moving to chacha20, we have a single RNG to analyze and verify, and we also already get good performance improvements on all platforms. Implementation-wise, rather than use a generic buffer for both get_random_int/long and memcpy based on the size needs, we use a specific buffer for 32-bit reads and for 64-bit reads. This way, we're guaranteed to always have aligned accesses on all platforms. While slightly more verbose in C, the assembly this generates is a lot simpler than otherwise. Finally, on 32-bit platforms where longs and ints are the same size, we simply alias get_random_int to get_random_long. Signed-off-by: NJason A.

Add a new page flag, PageWaiters, to indicate the page waitqueue has tasks waiting. This can be tested rather than testing waitqueue_active which requires another cacheline load. This bit is always set when the page has tasks on page_waitqueue(page), and is set and cleared under the waitqueue lock. It may be set when there are no tasks on the waitqueue, which will cause a harmless extra wakeup check that will clears the bit. The generic bit-waitqueue infrastructure is no longer used for pages. Instead, waitqueues are used directly with a custom key type. The generic code was not flexible enough to have PageWaiters manipulation under the waitqueue lock (which simplifies concurrency). This improves the performance of page lock intensive microbenchmarks by 2-3%. Putting two bits in the same word opens the opportunity to remove the memory barrier between clearing the lock bit and testing the waiters bit, after some work on the arch primitives (e.g., ensuring memory operand widths match and cover both bits).

AMD CPUs affected by the E400 erratum suffer from the issue that the local APIC timer stops when the CPU goes into C1E. Unfortunately there is no way to detect the affected CPUs on early boot. It's only possible to determine the range of possibly affected CPUs from the family/model range. The actual decision whether to enter C1E and thus cause the bug is done by the firmware and we need to detect that case late, after ACPI has been initialized. The current solution is to check in the idle routine whether the CPU is affected by reading the MSR_K8_INT_PENDING_MSG MSR and checking for the K8_INTP_C1E_ACTIVE_MASK bits. If one of the bits is set then the CPU is affected and the system is switched into forced broadcast mode. This is ineffective and on non-affected CPUs every entry to idle does the extra RDMSR. After doing some research it turns out that the bits are visible on the boot CPU right after the ACPI subsystem is initialized in the early boot process. So instead of polling for the bits in the idle loop, add a detection function after acpi_subsystem_init() and check for the MSR bits. If set, then the X86_BUG_AMD_APIC_C1E is set on the boot CPU and the TSC is marked unstable when X86_FEATURE_NONSTOP_TSC is not set as it will stop in C1E state as well. The switch to broadcast mode cannot be done at this point because the boot CPU still uses HPET as a clockevent device and the local APIC timer is not yet calibrated and installed. The switch to broadcast mode on the affected CPUs needs to be done when the local APIC timer is actually set up. This allows to cleanup the amd_e400_idle() function in the next step.

This adds a new gcc plugin named "latent_entropy". It is designed to extract as much possible uncertainty from a running system at boot time as possible, hoping to capitalize on any possible variation in CPU operation (due to runtime data differences, hardware differences, SMP ordering, thermal timing variation, cache behavior, etc). At the very least, this plugin is a much more comprehensive example for how to manipulate kernel code using the gcc plugin internals. The need for very-early boot entropy tends to be very architecture or system design specific, so this plugin is more suited for those sorts of special cases. The existing kernel RNG already attempts to extract entropy from reliable runtime variation, but this plugin takes the idea to a logical extreme by permuting a global variable based on any variation in code execution (e.g. a different value (and permutation function) is used to permute the global based on loop count, case statement, if/then/else branching, etc). To do this, the plugin starts by inserting a local variable in every marked function. The plugin then adds logic so that the value of this variable is modified by randomly chosen operations (add, xor and rol) and random values (gcc generates separate static values for each location at compile time and also injects the stack pointer at runtime). The resulting value depends on the control flow path (e.g., loops and branches taken). Before the function returns, the plugin mixes this local variable into the latent_entropy global variable. The value of this global variable is added to the kernel entropy pool in do_one_initcall() and _do_fork(), though it does not credit any bytes of entropy to the pool; the contents of the global are just used to mix the pool. Additionally, the plugin can pre-initialize arrays with build-time random contents, so that two different kernel builds running on identical hardware will not have the same starting values.

Workqueue is currently initialized in an early init call; however, there are cases where early boot code has to be split and reordered to come after workqueue initialization or the same code path which makes use of workqueues is used both before workqueue initailization and after. The latter cases have to gate workqueue usages with keventd_up() tests, which is nasty and easy to get wrong. Workqueue usages have become widespread and it'd be a lot more convenient if it can be used very early from boot. This patch splits workqueue initialization into two steps. workqueue_init_early() which sets up the basic data structures so that workqueues can be created and work items queued, and workqueue_init() which actually brings up workqueues online and starts executing queued work items. The former step can be done very early during boot once memory allocation, cpumasks and idr are initialized. The latter right after kthreads become available. This allows work item queueing and canceling from very early boot which is what most of these use cases want. * As systemd_wq being initialized doesn't indicate that workqueue is fully online anymore, update keventd_up() to test wq_online instead. The follow-up patches will get rid of all its usages and the function itself. * Flushing doesn't make sense before workqueue is fully initialized. The flush functions trigger WARN and return immediately before fully online. * Work items are never in-flight before fully online. Canceling can always succeed by skipping the flush step. * Some code paths can no longer assume to be called with irq enabled as irq is disabled during early boot. Use irqsave/restore operations instead. v2: Watchdog init, which requires timer to be running, moved from workqueue_init_early() to workqueue_init().

sprint_symbol_no_offset() returns the string "function_name [module_name]" where [module_name] is not printed for built in kernel functions. This means that the blacklisting code will fail when comparing module function names with the extended string. This patch adds the functionality to block a module's module_init() function by finding the space in the string and truncating the comparison to that length.

There was only one use of __initdata_refok and __exit_refok __init_refok was used 46 times against 82 for __ref. Those definitions are obsolete since commit 312b1485 ("Introduce new section reference annotations tags: __ref, __refdata, __refconst") This patch removes the following compatibility definitions and replaces them treewide. /* compatibility defines */ #define __init_refok __ref #define __initdata_refok __refdata #define __exit_refok __ref I can also provide separate patches if necessary.

We've had the thread info allocated together with the thread stack for most architectures for a long time (since the thread_info was split off from the task struct), but that is about to change. But the patches that move the thread info to be off-stack (and a part of the task struct instead) made it clear how confused the allocator and freeing functions are. Because the common case was that we share an allocation with the thread stack and the thread_info, the two pointers were identical. That identity then meant that we would have things like ti = alloc_thread_info_node(tsk, node); ... tsk->stack = ti; which certainly _worked_ (since stack and thread_info have the same value), but is rather confusing: why are we assigning a thread_info to the stack? And if we move the thread_info away, the "confusing" code just gets to be entirely bogus. So remove all this confusion, and make it clear that we are doing the stack allocation by renaming and clarifying the function names to be about the stack. The fact that the thread_info then shares the allocation is an implementation detail, and not really about the allocation itself. This is a pure renaming and type fix: we pass in the same pointer, it's just that we clarify what the pointer means. The ia64 code that actually only has one single allocation (for all of task_struct, thread_info and kernel thread stack) now looks a bit odd, but since "tsk->stack" is actually not even used there, that oddity doesn't matter. It would be a separate thing to clean that up, I intentionally left the ia64 changes as a pure brute-force renaming and type change.

page_ext_init() checks suitable pages with pfn_to_nid(), but pfn_to_nid() depends on memmap which will not be setup fully until page_alloc_init_late() is done. Use early_pfn_to_nid() instead of pfn_to_nid() so that page extension could be still used early even though CONFIG_ DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT is enabled and catch early page allocation call sites. Suggested by Joonsoo Kim [1], this fix basically undoes the change introduced by commit b8f1a75d ("mm: call page_ext_init() after all struct pages are initialized") and fixes the same problem with a better approach.

Using kasprintf to get the function name makes us look up the name twice, along with all the vsnprintf overhead of parsing the format string etc. It also means there is an allocation failure case to deal with. Since symbol_string in vsprintf.c would anyway allocate an array of size KSYM_SYMBOL_LEN on the stack, that might as well be done up here. Moreover, since this is a debug feature and the blacklisted_initcalls list is usually empty, we might as well test that and thus avoid looking up the symbol name even once in the common case.

printk() takes some locks and could not be used a safe way in NMI context. The chance of a deadlock is real especially when printing stacks from all CPUs. This particular problem has been addressed on x86 by the commit a9edc880 ("x86/nmi: Perform a safe NMI stack trace on all CPUs"). The patchset brings two big advantages. First, it makes the NMI backtraces safe on all architectures for free. Second, it makes all NMI messages almost safe on all architectures (the temporary buffer is limited. We still should keep the number of messages in NMI context at minimum). Note that there already are several messages printed in NMI context: WARN_ON(in_nmi()), BUG_ON(in_nmi()), anything being printed out from MCE handlers. These are not easy to avoid. This patch reuses most of the code and makes it generic. It is useful for all messages and architectures that support NMI. The alternative printk_func is set when entering and is reseted when leaving NMI context. It queues IRQ work to copy the messages into the main ring buffer in a safe context. __printk_nmi_flush() copies all available messages and reset the buffer. Then we could use a simple cmpxchg operations to get synchronized with writers. There is also used a spinlock to get synchronized with other flushers. We do not longer use seq_buf because it depends on external lock. It would be hard to make all supported operations safe for a lockless use. It would be confusing and error prone to make only some operations safe. The code is put into separate printk/nmi.c as suggested by Steven Rostedt. It needs a per-CPU buffer and is compiled only on architectures that call nmi_enter(). This is achieved by the new HAVE_NMI Kconfig flag. The are MN10300 and Xtensa architectures. We need to clean up NMI handling there first. Let's do it separately. The patch is heavily based on the draft from Peter Zijlstra, see https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/6/10/327 [arnd@arndb.de: printk-nmi: use %zu format string for size_t] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: min_t->min - all types are size_t here] Signed-off-by: NPetr Mladek <pmladek@suse.com> Suggested-by: NPeter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Suggested-by: NSteven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Acked-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk> [arm part] Cc: Daniel Thompson <daniel.thompson@linaro.org> Cc: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@suse.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org> Cc: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Cc: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Cc: David Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Cc: Daniel Thompson <daniel.thompson@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

It may be useful to debug writes to the readonly sections of memory, so provide a cmdline "rodata=off" to allow for this. This can be expanded in the future to support "log" and "write" modes, but that will need to be architecture-specific. This also makes KDB software breakpoints more usable, as read-only mappings can now be disabled on any kernel. Suggested-by: NH.
