Add detection for chain_key collision under CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCKDEP. When a collision is detected the problem is reported and all lock debugging is turned off. Tested using liblockdep and the added tests before and after applying the fix, confirming both that the code added for the detection correctly reports the problem and that the fix actually fixes it. Tested tweaking lockdep to generate false collisions and verified that the problem is reported and that lock debugging is turned off. Also tested with lockdep's test suite after applying the patch: [ 0.000000] Good, all 253 testcases passed! | Signed-off-by: NAlfredo Alvarez Fernandez <alfredoalvarezernandez@gmail.com> Cc: Alfredo Alvarez Fernandez <alfredoalvarezfernandez@gmail.com> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Paul E.

The chain_key hashing macro iterate_chain_key(key1, key2) does not generate a new different value if both key1 and key2 are 0. In that case the generated value is again 0. This can lead to collisions which can result in lockdep not detecting deadlocks or circular dependencies. Avoid the problem by using class_idx (1-based) instead of class id (0-based) as an input for the hashing macro 'key2' in iterate_chain_key(key1, key2). The use of class id created collisions in cases like the following: 1.- Consider an initial state in which no class has been acquired yet. Under these circumstances an AA deadlock will not be detected by lockdep: lock [key1,key2]->new key (key1=old chain_key, key2=id) -------------------------- A [0,0]->0 A [0,0]->0 (collision) The newly generated chain_key collides with the one used before and as a result the check for a deadlock is skipped A simple test using liblockdep and a pthread mutex confirms the problem: (omitting stack traces) new class 0xe15038: 0x7ffc64950f20 acquire class [0xe15038] 0x7ffc64950f20 acquire class [0xe15038] 0x7ffc64950f20 hash chain already cached, key: 0000000000000000 tail class: [0xe15038] 0x7ffc64950f20 2.- Consider an ABBA in 2 different tasks and no class yet acquired. T1 [key1,key2]->new key T2[key1,key2]->new key -- -- A [0,0]->0 B [0,1]->1 B [0,1]->1 (collision) A In this case the collision prevents lockdep from creating the new dependency A->B. This in turn results in lockdep not detecting the circular dependency when T2 acquires A.

Make use of wake-queues and enable the wakeup to occur after releasing the wait_lock. This is similar to what we do with rtmutex top waiter, slightly shortening the critical region and allow other waiters to acquire the wait_lock sooner. In low contention cases it can also help the recently woken waiter to find the wait_lock available (fastpath) when it continues execution.

Similar to commit b4b29f94 ("locking/osq: Fix ordering of node initialisation in osq_lock") the use of xchg_acquire() is fundamentally broken with MCS like constructs. Furthermore, it turns out we rely on the global transitivity of this operation because the unlock path observes the pointer with a READ_ONCE(), not an smp_load_acquire(). This is non-critical because the MCS code isn't actually used and mostly serves as documentation, a stepping stone to the more complex things we've build on top of the idea.

The recent commit 3e349507 ("perf: Fix perf_enable_on_exec() event scheduling") caused this by moving task_ctx_sched_out() from before __perf_event_mask_enable() to after it. The overlooked consequence of that change is that task_ctx_sched_out() would update the ctx time fields, and now __perf_event_mask_enable() uses stale time. In order to fix this, explicitly stop our context's time before enabling the event(s).

Currently any ctx_sched_in() call will re-start the ctx time tracking, this means that calls like: ctx_sched_in(.event_type = EVENT_PINNED); ctx_sched_in(.event_type = EVENT_FLEXIBLE); will have a hole in their ctx time tracking. This is likely harmless but can confuse things a little. By adding EVENT_TIME, we can have the first ctx_sched_in() (is_active: 0 -> !0) start the time and any further ctx_sched_in() will leave the timestamps alone. Secondly, this allows for an early disable like: ctx_sched_out(.event_type = EVENT_TIME); which would update the ctx time (if the ctx is active) and any further calls to ctx_sched_out() would not further modify the ctx time. For ctx_sched_in() any 0 -> !0 transition will automatically include EVENT_TIME. For ctx_sched_out(), any transition that clears EVENT_ALL will automatically clear EVENT_TIME. These two rules ensure that under normal circumstances we need not bother with EVENT_TIME and get natural ctx time behaviour.

Because event_sched_out() checks event->pending_disable _before_ actually disabling the event, it can happen that the event fires after it checks but before it gets disabled. This would leave event->pending_disable set and the queued irq_work will try and process it. However, if the event trigger was during schedule(), the event might have been de-scheduled by the time the irq_work runs, and perf_event_disable_local() will fail. Fix this by checking event->pending_disable _after_ we call event->pmu->del(). This depends on the latter being a compiler barrier, such that the compiler does not lift the load and re-creates the problem.

perf_install_in_context() relies upon the context switch hooks to have scheduled in events when the IPI misses its target -- after all, if the task has moved from the CPU (or wasn't running at all), it will have to context switch to run elsewhere. This however doesn't appear to be happening. It is possible for the IPI to not happen (task wasn't running) only to later observe the task running with an inactive context. The only possible explanation is that the context switch hooks are not called. Therefore put in a sync_sched() after toggling the jump_label to guarantee all CPUs will have them enabled before we install an event. A simple if (0->1) sync_sched() will not in fact work, because any further increment can race and complete before the sync_sched(). Therefore we must jump through some hoops.

Alexander reported that when the 'original' context gets destroyed, no new clones happen. This can happen irrespective of the ctx switch optimization, any task can die, even the parent, and we want to continue monitoring the task hierarchy until we either close the event or no tasks are left in the hierarchy. perf_event_init_context() will attempt to pin the 'parent' context during clone(). At that point current is the parent, and since current cannot have exited while executing clone(), its context cannot have passed through perf_event_exit_task_context(). Therefore perf_pin_task_context() cannot observe ctx->task == TASK_TOMBSTONE. However, since inherit_event() does: if (parent_event->parent) parent_event = parent_event->parent; it looks at the 'original' event when it does: is_orphaned_event(). This can return true if the context that contains the this event has passed through perf_event_exit_task_context(). And thus we'll fail to clone the perf context. Fix this by adding a new state: STATE_DEAD, which is set by perf_release() to indicate that the filedesc (or kernel reference) is dead and there are no observers for our data left. Only for STATE_DEAD will is_orphaned_event() be true and inhibit cloning. STATE_EXIT is otherwise preserved such that is_event_hup() remains functional and will report when the observed task hierarchy becomes empty.

The ftrace:function event is only displayed for parsing the function tracer data. It is not used to enable function tracing, and does not include an "enable" file in its event directory. Originally, this event was kept separate from other events because it did not have a ->reg parameter. But perf added a "reg" parameter for its use which caused issues, because it made the event available to functions where it was not compatible for. Commit 9b63776f "tracing: Do not enable function event with enable" added a TRACE_EVENT_FL_IGNORE_ENABLE flag that prevented the function event from being enabled by normal trace events. But this commit missed keeping the function event from being displayed by the "available_events" directory, which is used to show what events can be enabled by set_event. One documented way to enable all events is to: cat available_events > set_event But because the function event is displayed in the available_events, this now causes an INVALID error: cat: write error: Invalid argument Reported-by: NChunyu Hu <chuhu@redhat.com> Fixes: 9b63776f "tracing: Do not enable function event with enable" Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # 3.4+ Signed-off-by: NSteven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

In __request_region, if a conflict with a BUSY and MUXED resource is detected, then the caller goes to sleep and waits for the resource to be released. A pointer on the conflicting resource is kept. At wake-up this pointer is used as a parent to retry to request the region. A first problem is that this pointer might well be invalid (if for example the conflicting resource have already been freed). Another problem is that the next call to __request_region() fails to detect a remaining conflict. The previously conflicting resource is passed as a parameter and __request_region() will look for a conflict among the children of this resource and not at the resource itself. It is likely to succeed anyway, even if there is still a conflict. Instead, the parent of the conflicting resource should be passed to __request_region(). As a fix, this patch doesn't update the parent resource pointer in the case we have to wait for a muxed region right after.

Remove the ftrace module notifier in favor of directly calling ftrace_module_enable() and ftrace_release_mod() in the module loader. Hard-coding the function calls directly in the module loader removes dependence on the module notifier call chain and provides better visibility and control over what gets called when, which is important to kernel utilities such as livepatch. This fixes a notifier ordering issue in which the ftrace module notifier (and hence ftrace_module_enable()) for coming modules was being called after klp_module_notify(), which caused livepatch modules to initialize incorrectly. This patch removes dependence on the module notifier call chain in favor of hard coding the corresponding function calls in the module loader. This ensures that ftrace and livepatch code get called in the correct order on patch module load and unload.

When dealing with key handling for shared futexes, we can drastically reduce the usage/need of the page lock. 1) For anonymous pages, the associated futex object is the mm_struct which does not require the page lock. 2) For inode based, keys, we can check under RCU read lock if the page mapping is still valid and take reference to the inode. This just leaves one rare race that requires the page lock in the slow path when examining the swapcache. Additionally realtime users currently have a problem with the page lock being contended for unbounded periods of time during futex operations. Task A get_futex_key() lock_page() ---> preempted Now any other task trying to lock that page will have to wait until task A gets scheduled back in, which is an unbound time. With this patch, we pretty much have a lockless futex_get_key(). Experiments show that this patch can boost/speedup the hashing of shared futexes with the perf futex benchmarks (which is good for measuring such change) by up to 45% when there are high (> 100) thread counts on a 60 core Westmere. Lower counts are pretty much in the noise range or less than 10%, but mid range can be seen at over 30% overall throughput (hash ops/sec). This makes anon-mem shared futexes much closer to its private counterpart.

If yes it allocates a new hash and stores the pointer in the per cpu data structure. But at this point the cpu is still online, so there must be a valid hash already.

The pfn_t type uses an unsigned long to store a pfn + flags value. On a 64-bit platform the upper 12 bits of an unsigned long are never used for storing the value of a pfn. However, this is not true on highmem platforms, all 32-bits of a pfn value are used to address a 44-bit physical address space. A pfn_t needs to store a 64-bit value.

When ctx access is used, the kernel often needs to expand/rewrite instructions, so after that patching, branch offsets have to be adjusted for both forward and backward jumps in the new eBPF program, but for backward jumps it fails to account the delta. Meaning, for example, if the expansion happens exactly on the insn that sits at the jump target, it doesn't fix up the back jump offset. Analysis on what the check in adjust_branches() is currently doing: /* adjust offset of jmps if necessary */ if (i < pos && i + insn->off + 1 > pos) insn->off += delta; else if (i > pos && i + insn->off + 1 < pos) insn->off -= delta; First condition (forward jumps): Before: After: insns[0] insns[0] insns[1] <--- i/insn insns[1] <--- i/insn insns[2] <--- pos insns[P] <--- pos insns[3] insns[P] `------| delta insns[4] <--- target_X insns[P] `-----| insns[5] insns[3] insns[4] <--- target_X insns[5] First case is if we cross pos-boundary and the jump instruction was before pos. This is handeled correctly. I.e. if i == pos, then this would mean our jump that we currently check was the patchlet itself that we just injected. Since such patchlets are self-contained and have no awareness of any insns before or after the patched one, the delta is correctly not adjusted. Also, for the second condition in case of i + insn->off + 1 == pos, means we jump to that newly patched instruction, so no offset adjustment are needed. That part is correct. Second condition (backward jumps): Before: After: insns[0] insns[0] insns[1] <--- target_X insns[1] <--- target_X insns[2] <--- pos <-- target_Y insns[P] <--- pos <-- target_Y insns[3] insns[P] `------| delta insns[4] <--- i/insn insns[P] `-----| insns[5] insns[3] insns[4] <--- i/insn insns[5] Second interesting case is where we cross pos-boundary and the jump instruction was after pos. Backward jump with i == pos would be impossible and pose a bug somewhere in the patchlet, so the first condition checking i > pos is okay only by itself. However, i + insn->off + 1 < pos does not always work as intended to trigger the adjustment. It works when jump targets would be far off where the delta wouldn't matter. But, for example, where the fixed insn->off before pointed to pos (target_Y), it now points to pos + delta, so that additional room needs to be taken into account for the check. This means that i) both tests here need to be adjusted into pos + delta, and ii) for the second condition, the test needs to be <= as pos itself can be a target in the backjump, too.

When looking up the pool_workqueue to use for an unbound workqueue, workqueue assumes that the target CPU is always bound to a valid NUMA node. However, currently, when a CPU goes offline, the mapping is destroyed and cpu_to_node() returns NUMA_NO_NODE. This has always been broken but hasn't triggered often enough before 874bbfe6 ("workqueue: make sure delayed work run in local cpu"). After the commit, workqueue forcifully assigns the local CPU for delayed work items without explicit target CPU to fix a different issue. This widens the window where CPU can go offline while a delayed work item is pending causing delayed work items dispatched with target CPU set to an already offlined CPU. The resulting NUMA_NO_NODE mapping makes workqueue try to queue the work item on a NULL pool_workqueue and thus crash. While 874bbfe6 has been reverted for a different reason making the bug less visible again, it can still happen. Fix it by mapping NUMA_NO_NODE to the default pool_workqueue from unbound_pwq_by_node(). This is a temporary workaround. The long term solution is keeping CPU -> NODE mapping stable across CPU off/online cycles which is being worked on.

Workqueue used to guarantee local execution for work items queued without explicit target CPU. The guarantee is gone now which can break some usages in subtle ways. To flush out those cases, this patch implements a debug feature which forces round-robin CPU selection for all such work items. The debug feature defaults to off and can be enabled with a kernel parameter. The default can be flipped with a debug config option. If you hit this commit during bisection, please refer to 041bd12e ("Revert "workqueue: make sure delayed work run in local cpu"") for more information and ping me.

WORK_CPU_UNBOUND work items queued to a bound workqueue always run locally. This is a good thing normally, but not when the user has asked us to keep unbound work away from certain CPUs. Round robin these to wq_unbound_cpumask CPUs instead, as perturbation avoidance trumps performance. tj: Cosmetic and comment changes. WARN_ON_ONCE() dropped from empty (wq_unbound_cpumask AND cpu_online_mask). If we want that, it should be done when config changes.

This reverts commit 874bbfe6. Workqueue used to implicity guarantee that work items queued without explicit CPU specified are put on the local CPU. Recent changes in timer broke the guarantee and led to vmstat breakage which was fixed by 176bed1d ("vmstat: explicitly schedule per-cpu work on the CPU we need it to run on"). vmstat is the most likely to expose the issue and it's quite possible that there are other similar problems which are a lot more difficult to trigger. As a preventive measure, 874bbfe6 ("workqueue: make sure delayed work run in local cpu") was applied to restore the local CPU guarnatee. Unfortunately, the change exposed a bug in timer code which got fixed by 22b886dd ("timers: Use proper base migration in add_timer_on()"). Due to code restructuring, the commit couldn't be backported beyond certain point and stable kernels which only had 874bbfe6 started crashing. The local CPU guarantee was accidental more than anything else and we want to get rid of it anyway. As, with the vmstat case fixed, 874bbfe6 is causing more problems than it's fixing, it has been decided to take the chance and officially break the guarantee by reverting the commit. A debug feature will be added to force foreign CPU assignment to expose cases relying on the guarantee and fixes for the individual cases will be backported to stable as necessary.
