Keep the documentation in the header file since there is no good place for it in mutex.c: there are two rather different implementations with different EXPORT_SYMBOLs for each function.

We will add a new field to struct mutex_waiter. This field must be initialized for all waiters if any waiter uses the ww_use_ctx path. So there is a trade-off: Keep ww_mutex locking without a context on the faster non-use_ww_ctx path, at the cost of adding the initialization to all mutex locks (including non-ww_mutexes), or avoid the additional cost for non-ww_mutex locks, at the cost of adding additional checks to the use_ww_ctx path. We take the latter choice. It may be worth eliminating the users of ww_mutex_lock(lock, NULL), but there are a lot of them.

While reviewing the ww_mutex patches, I noticed that it was still possible to (incorrectly) succeed for (incorrect) code like: mutex_lock(&a); mutex_lock(&a); This was possible if the second mutex_lock() would block (as expected) but then receive a spurious wakeup. At that point it would find itself at the front of the queue, request a handoff and instantly claim ownership and continue, since owner would point to itself. Avoid this scenario and simplify the code by introducing a third low bit to signal handoff pickup. So once we request handoff, unlock clears the handoff bit and sets the pickup bit along with the new owner. This also removes the need for the .handoff argument to __mutex_trylock(), since that becomes superfluous with PICKUP. In order to guarantee enough low bits, ensure task_struct alignment is at least L1_CACHE_BYTES (which seems a good ideal regardless).

The use of any kind of wait queue is an overkill for pcpu-rwsems. While one option would be to use the less heavy simple (swait) flavor, this is still too much for what pcpu-rwsems needs. For one, we do not care about any sort of queuing in that the only (rare) time writers (and readers, for that matter) are queued is when trying to acquire the regular contended rw_sem. There cannot be any further queuing as writers are serialized by the rw_sem in the first place. Given that percpu_down_write() must not be called after exit_notify(), we can replace the bulky waitqueue with rcuwait such that a writer can wait for its turn to take the lock. As such, we can avoid the queue handling and locking overhead.

rcuwait provides support for (single) RCU-safe task wait/wake functionality, with the caveat that it must not be called after exit_notify(), such that we avoid racing with rcu delayed_put_task_struct callbacks, task_struct being rcu unaware in this context -- for which we similarly have task_rcu_dereference() magic, but with different return semantics, which can conflict with the wakeup side. The interfaces are quite straightforward: rcuwait_wait_event() rcuwait_wake_up() More details are in the comments, but it's perhaps worth mentioning at least, that users must provide proper serialization when waiting on a condition, and avoid corrupting a concurrent waiter. Also care must be taken between the task and the condition for when calling the wakeup -- we cannot miss wakeups. When porting users, this is for example, a given when using waitqueues in that everything is done under the q->lock. As such, it can remove sources of non preemptable unbounded work for realtime.

This is a nasty interface and setting the state of a foreign task must not be done. As of the following commit: be628be0 ("bcache: Make gc wakeup sane, remove set_task_state()") ... everyone in the kernel calls set_task_state() with current, allowing the helper to be removed. However, as the comment indicates, it is still around for those archs where computing current is more expensive than using a pointer, at least in theory. An important arch that is affected is arm64, however this has been addressed now [1] and performance is up to par making no difference with either calls. Of all the callers, if any, it's the locking bits that would care most about this -- ie: we end up passing a tsk pointer to a lot of the lock slowpath, and setting ->state on that. The following numbers are based on two tests: a custom ad-hoc microbenchmark that just measures latencies (for ~65 million calls) between get_task_state() vs get_current_state(). Secondly for a higher overview, an unlink microbenchmark was used, which pounds on a single file with open, close,unlink combos with increasing thread counts (up to 4x ncpus). While the workload is quite unrealistic, it does contend a lot on the inode mutex or now rwsem.

Since commit 00cd5c37 ("ptrace: permit ptracing of /sbin/init") we can now trace init processes. init is initially protected with SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE which will prevent fatal signals such as SIGSTOP, but there are a number of paths during tracing where SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE can be implicitly cleared. This can result in init becoming stoppable/killable after tracing. For example, running: while true; do kill -STOP 1; done & strace -p 1 and then stopping strace and the kill loop will result in init being left in state TASK_STOPPED. Sending SIGCONT to init will resume it, but init will now respond to future SIGSTOP signals rather than ignoring them. Make sure that when setting SIGNAL_STOP_CONTINUED/SIGNAL_STOP_STOPPED that we don't clear SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE.

Both arch_add_memory() and arch_remove_memory() expect a single threaded context. For example, arch/x86/mm/init_64.c::kernel_physical_mapping_init() does not hold any locks over this check and branch: if (pgd_val(*pgd)) { pud = (pud_t *)pgd_page_vaddr(*pgd); paddr_last = phys_pud_init(pud, __pa(vaddr), __pa(vaddr_end), page_size_mask); continue; } pud = alloc_low_page(); paddr_last = phys_pud_init(pud, __pa(vaddr), __pa(vaddr_end), page_size_mask); The result is that two threads calling devm_memremap_pages() simultaneously can end up colliding on pgd initialization.

Commit 01b3f521 ("bpf: fix allocation warnings in bpf maps and integer overflow") has added checks for the maximum allocateable size. It (ab)used KMALLOC_SHIFT_MAX for that purpose. While this is not incorrect it is not very clean because we already have KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE for this very reason so let's change both checks to use KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE instead. The original motivation for using KMALLOC_SHIFT_MAX was to work around an incorrect KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE which could lead to allocation warnings but it is no longer needed since "slab: make sure that KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE will fit into MAX_ORDER".

Since fsnotify_add_mark() acquires group->mark_mutex this can lead to sleeping while holding a spinlock, deadlocks due to lock inversion, and probably other fun. Fix the problem by acquiring group->mark_mutex earlier. CC: Paul Moore <paul@paul-moore.com> Signed-off-by: NJan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: NPaul Moore <paul@paul-moore.com>

ktime is a union because the initial implementation stored the time in scalar nanoseconds on 64 bit machine and in a endianess optimized timespec variant for 32bit machines. The Y2038 cleanup removed the timespec variant and switched everything to scalar nanoseconds. The union remained, but become completely pointless. Get rid of the union and just keep ktime_t as simple typedef of type s64. The conversion was done with coccinelle and some manual mopping up.

There are only two calls sites of fsnotify_duplicate_mark(). Those are in kernel/audit_tree.c and both are bogus. Vfsmount pointer is unused for audit tree, inode pointer and group gets set in fsnotify_add_mark_locked() later anyway, mask and free_mark are already set in alloc_chunk(). In fact, calling fsnotify_duplicate_mark() is actively harmful because following fsnotify_add_mark_locked() will leak group reference by overwriting the group pointer.

The reason why it wasn't noticed before was, because as mentioned in a08dd0da, mark_map_regs() was doing the id matching incorrectly based on the uncached regs[regno].id. So, in the first loop, we walked all regs and as soon as we found regno == i, then this reg's id was cleared when calling mark_reg_unknown_value() thus that every subsequent register was probed against id of 0 (which, in combination with the PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE_OR_NULL type is an invalid condition that no other register state can hold), and therefore wasn't type transitioned such as in the spilled register case for the second loop. Now since that got fixed, it turned out that 57a09bf0 ("bpf: Detect identical PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE_OR_NULL registers") used mark_reg_unknown_value() incorrectly for the spilled regs, and thus hitting the BUG_ON() in some cases due to regno >= MAX_BPF_REG. Although spilled regs have the same type as the non-spilled regs for the verifier state, that is, struct bpf_reg_state, they are semantically different from the non-spilled regs. In other words, there can be up to 64 (MAX_BPF_STACK / BPF_REG_SIZE) spilled regs in the stack, for example, register R<x> could have been spilled by the program to stack location X, Y, Z, and in mark_map_regs() we need to scan these stack slots of type STACK_SPILL for potential registers that we have to transition from PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE_OR_NULL. Therefore, depending on the location, the spilled_regs regno can be a lot higher than just MAX_BPF_REG's value since we operate on stack instead. The reset in mark_reg_unknown_value() itself is just fine, only that the BUG_ON() was inappropriate for this. Fix it by making a __mark_reg_unknown_value() version that can be called from mark_map_reg() generically; we know for the non-spilled case that the regno is always < MAX_BPF_REG anyway.

Commit aaac3ba9 ("bpf: charge user for creation of BPF maps and programs") made a wrong assumption of charging against prog->pages. Unlike map->pages, prog->pages are still subject to change when we need to expand the program through bpf_prog_realloc(). This can for example happen during verification stage when we need to expand and rewrite parts of the program. Should the required space cross a page boundary, then prog->pages is not the same anymore as its original value that we used to bpf_prog_charge_memlock() on. Thus, we'll hit a wrap-around during bpf_prog_uncharge_memlock() when prog is freed eventually. I noticed this that despite having unlimited memlock, programs suddenly refused to load with EPERM error due to insufficient memlock. There are two ways to fix this issue. One would be to add a cached variable to struct bpf_prog that takes a snapshot of prog->pages at the time of charging. The other approach is to also account for resizes. I chose to go with the latter for a couple of reasons: i) We want accounting rather to be more accurate instead of further fooling limits, ii) adding yet another page counter on struct bpf_prog would also be a waste just for this purpose. We also do want to charge as early as possible to avoid going into the verifier just to find out later on that we crossed limits. The only place that needs to be fixed is bpf_prog_realloc(), since only here we expand the program, so we try to account for the needed delta and should we fail, call-sites check for outcome anyway. On cBPF to eBPF migrations, we don't grab a reference to the user as they are charged differently. With that in place, my test case worked fine.

Commit 57a09bf0 ("bpf: Detect identical PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE_OR_NULL registers") introduced a regression where existing programs stopped loading due to reaching the verifier's maximum complexity limit, whereas prior to this commit they were loading just fine; the affected program has roughly 2k instructions. What was found is that state pruning couldn't be performed effectively anymore due to mismatches of the verifier's register state, in particular in the id tracking. It doesn't mean that 57a09bf0 is incorrect per se, but rather that verifier needs to perform a lot more work for the same program with regards to involved map lookups. Since commit 57a09bf0 is only about tracking registers with type PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE_OR_NULL, the id is only needed to follow registers until they are promoted through pattern matching with a NULL check to either PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE or UNKNOWN_VALUE type. After that point, the id becomes irrelevant for the transitioned types. For UNKNOWN_VALUE, id is already reset to 0 via mark_reg_unknown_value(), but not so for PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE where id is becoming stale. It's even transferred further into other types that don't make use of it. Among others, one example is where UNKNOWN_VALUE is set on function call return with RET_INTEGER return type. states_equal() will then fall through the memcmp() on register state; note that the second memcmp() uses offsetofend(), so the id is part of that since d2a4dd37 ("bpf: fix state equivalence"). But the bisect pointed already to 57a09bf0, where we really reach beyond complexity limit. What I found was that states_equal() often failed in this case due to id mismatches in spilled regs with registers in type PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE. Unlike non-spilled regs, spilled regs just perform a memcmp() on their reg state and don't have any other optimizations in place, therefore also id was relevant in this case for making a pruning decision. We can safely reset id to 0 as well when converting to PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE. For the affected program, it resulted in a ~17 fold reduction of complexity and let the program load fine again. Selftest suite also runs fine. The only other place where env->id_gen is used currently is through direct packet access, but for these cases id is long living, thus a different scenario. Also, the current logic in mark_map_regs() is not fully correct when marking NULL branch with UNKNOWN_VALUE. We need to cache the destination reg's id in any case. Otherwise, once we marked that reg as UNKNOWN_VALUE, it's id is reset and any subsequent registers that hold the original id and are of type PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE_OR_NULL won't be marked UNKNOWN_VALUE anymore, since mark_map_reg() reuses the uncached regs[regno].id that was just overridden. Note, we don't need to cache it outside of mark_map_regs(), since it's called once on this_branch and the other time on other_branch, which are both two independent verifier states. A test case for this is added here, too.

Commit 34c3d981 ("genirq/affinity: Provide smarter irq spreading infrastructure") introduced a better IRQ spreading mechanism, taking account of the available NUMA nodes in the machine. Problem is that the algorithm of retrieving the nodemask iterates "linearly" based on the number of online nodes - some architectures present non-linear node distribution among the nodemask, like PowerPC. If this is the case, the algorithm lead to a wrong node count number and therefore to a bad/incomplete IRQ affinity distribution. For example, this problem were found in a machine with 128 CPUs and two nodes, namely nodes 0 and 8 (instead of 0 and 1, if it was linearly distributed). This led to a wrong affinity distribution which then led to a bad mq allocation for nvme driver. Finally, we take the opportunity to fix a comment regarding the affinity distribution when we have _more_ nodes than vectors.

It actively hurts proper merging, and makes for a lot of special cases. There was a good(ish) reason for doing it originally, but it's getting too painful to maintain. And most of the original reasons for it are long gone. So instead of having special code to flush partial lines to the console (as opposed to the record buffers), do _all_ the console writing from the record buffer, and be done with it. If an oops happens (or some other synchronous event), we will flush the partial lines due to the oops printing activity, so this does not affect that. It does mean that if you have a completely hung machine, a partial preceding line may not have been printed out. That was some of the original reason for this complexity, in fact, back when we used to test for the historical i386 "halt" instruction problem by doing pr_info("Checking 'hlt' instruction... "); if (!boot_cpu_data.hlt_works_ok) { pr_cont("disabled\n"); return; } halt(); halt(); halt(); halt(); pr_cont("OK\n"); and that model no longer works (it the 'hlt' instruction kills the machine, the partial line won't have been flushed, so you won't even see it). Of course, that was also back in the days when people actually had textual console output rather than a graphical splash-screen at bootup. How times change..

The record logging code looks at the previous record flags in various ways, and they are all wrong. You can't use the previous record flags to determine anything about the next record, because they may simply not be related. In particular, the reason the previous record was a continuation record may well be exactly _because_ the new record was printed by a different process, which is why the previous record was flushed. So all those games are simply wrong, and make the code hard to understand (because the code fundamentally cdoes not make sense). So remove it.

Patch series "mm: unexport __get_user_pages_unlocked()". This patch series continues the cleanup of get_user_pages*() functions taking advantage of the fact we can now pass gup_flags as we please. It firstly adds an additional 'locked' parameter to get_user_pages_remote() to allow for its callers to utilise VM_FAULT_RETRY functionality. This is necessary as the invocation of __get_user_pages_unlocked() in process_vm_rw_single_vec() makes use of this and no other existing higher level function would allow it to do so. Secondly existing callers of __get_user_pages_unlocked() are replaced with the appropriate higher-level replacement - get_user_pages_unlocked() if the current task and memory descriptor are referenced, or get_user_pages_remote() if other task/memory descriptors are referenced (having acquiring mmap_sem.) This patch (of 2): Add a int *locked parameter to get_user_pages_remote() to allow VM_FAULT_RETRY faulting behaviour similar to get_user_pages_[un]locked(). Taking into account the previous adjustments to get_user_pages*() functions allowing for the passing of gup_flags, we are now in a position where __get_user_pages_unlocked() need only be exported for his ability to allow VM_FAULT_RETRY behaviour, this adjustment allows us to subsequently unexport __get_user_pages_unlocked() as well as allowing for future flexibility in the use of get_user_pages_remote().

Separate hardlockup code from watchdog.c and move it to watchdog_hld.c. It is mostly straight forward. Remove everything inside CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTORS. This code will go to file watchdog_hld.c. Also update the makefile accordigly.
