Tetsuo has reported that sysrq triggered OOM killer will print a
misleading information when no tasks are selected:

  sysrq: SysRq : Manual OOM execution
  Out of memory: Kill process 4468 ((agetty)) score 0 or sacrifice child
  Killed process 4468 ((agetty)) total-vm:43704kB, anon-rss:1760kB, file-rss:0kB, shmem-rss:0kB
  sysrq: SysRq : Manual OOM execution
  Out of memory: Kill process 4469 (systemd-cgroups) score 0 or sacrifice child
  Killed process 4469 (systemd-cgroups) total-vm:10704kB, anon-rss:120kB, file-rss:0kB, shmem-rss:0kB
  sysrq: SysRq : Manual OOM execution
  sysrq: OOM request ignored because killer is disabled
  sysrq: SysRq : Manual OOM execution
  sysrq: OOM request ignored because killer is disabled
  sysrq: SysRq : Manual OOM execution
  sysrq: OOM request ignored because killer is disabled

The real reason is that there are no eligible tasks for the OOM killer
to select but since commit 7c5f64f8 ("mm: oom: deduplicate victim
selection code for memcg and global oom") the semantic of out_of_memory
has changed without updating moom_callback.

This patch updates moom_callback to tell that no task was eligible which
is the case for both oom killer disabled and no eligible tasks.  In
order to help distinguish first case from the second add printk to both
oom_killer_{enable,disable}.  This information is useful on its own
because it might help debugging potential memory allocation failures.

Since commit d6580a9f ("kexec: sysrq: simplify sysrq-c handler"),
the sysrq handler for the 'c' key has been sysrq_crash_op.  Debugging
code in the ibm_emac driver also tries to register a handler for the 'c'
key, but this has no effect because register_sysrq_key() doesn't replace
existing handlers.  Since evidently no one has cared enough to fix this
in the last 8 years, and it's very rare for drivers to register sysrq
handlers (for good reason), just remove the dead code.

show_mem() allows to filter out node specific data which is irrelevant
to the allocation request via SHOW_MEM_FILTER_NODES.  The filtering is
done in skip_free_areas_node which skips all nodes which are not in the
mems_allowed of the current process.  This works most of the time as
expected because the nodemask shouldn't be outside of the allocating
task but there are some exceptions.  E.g.  memory hotplug might want to
request allocations from outside of the allowed nodes (see
new_node_page).

Get rid of this hardcoded behavior and push the allocation mask down the
show_mem path and use it instead of cpuset_current_mems_allowed.  NULL
nodemask is interpreted as cpuset_current_mems_allowed.

The sysrq input handler should be attached to the input device which has
a left alt key.

On 32-bit kernels, some input devices which has a left alt key cannot
attach sysrq handler.  Because the keybit bitmap in struct input_device_id
for sysrq is not correctly initialized.  KEY_LEFTALT is 56 which is
greater than BITS_PER_LONG on 32-bit kernels.

I found this problem when using a matrix keypad device which defines
a KEY_LEFTALT (56) but doesn't have a KEY_O (24 == 56%32).

Commit 984d74a7 ("sysrq: rcu-ify __handle_sysrq") replaced
spin_lock_irqsave() calls with rcu_read_lock() calls in sysrq. Since
rcu_read_lock() does not disable preemption, faulthandler_disabled() in
__do_page_fault() in x86/fault.c returns false. When the code later calls
might_sleep() in the pagefault handler, we get the following warning:

BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at ../arch/x86/mm/fault.c:1187
in_atomic(): 0, irqs_disabled(): 0, pid: 4706, name: bash

To fix this, we release the RCU read lock before we crash.

The zonelist locking and the oom_sem are two overlapping locks that are
used to serialize global OOM killing against different things.

The historical zonelist locking serializes OOM kills from allocations with
overlapping zonelists against each other to prevent killing more tasks
than necessary in the same memory domain.  Only when neither tasklists nor
zonelists from two concurrent OOM kills overlap (tasks in separate memcgs
bound to separate nodes) are OOM kills allowed to execute in parallel.

The younger oom_sem is a read-write lock to serialize OOM killing against
the PM code trying to disable the OOM killer altogether.

However, the OOM killer is a fairly cold error path, there is really no
reason to optimize for highly performant and concurrent OOM kills.  And
the oom_sem is just flat-out redundant.

Replace both locking schemes with a single global mutex serializing OOM
kills regardless of context.

The platform_sysrq_reset_seq code was intended as a way for an embedded

also incompatible with the way that most architectures build support for

Signed-off-by: NGreg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

Workqueues are used extensively throughout the kernel but sometimes
it's difficult to debug stalls involving work items because visibility
into its inner workings is fairly limited.  Although sysrq-t task dump
annotates each active worker task with the information on the work
item being executed, it is challenging to find out which work items
are pending or delayed on which queues and how pools are being
managed.

This patch implements show_workqueue_state() which dumps all busy
workqueues and pools and is called from the sysrq-t handler.  At the
end of sysrq-t dump, something like the following is printed.

 Showing busy workqueues and worker pools:
 ...
 workqueue filler_wq: flags=0x0
   pwq 2: cpus=1 node=0 flags=0x0 nice=0 active=2/256
     in-flight: 491:filler_workfn, 507:filler_workfn
   pwq 0: cpus=0 node=0 flags=0x0 nice=0 active=2/256
     in-flight: 501:filler_workfn
     pending: filler_workfn
 ...
 workqueue test_wq: flags=0x8
   pwq 2: cpus=1 node=0 flags=0x0 nice=0 active=1/1
     in-flight: 510(RESCUER):test_workfn BAR(69) BAR(500)
     delayed: test_workfn1 BAR(492), test_workfn2
 ...
 pool 0: cpus=0 node=0 flags=0x0 nice=0 workers=2 manager: 137
 pool 2: cpus=1 node=0 flags=0x0 nice=0 workers=3 manager: 469
 pool 3: cpus=1 node=0 flags=0x0 nice=-20 workers=2 idle: 16
 pool 8: cpus=0-3 flags=0x4 nice=0 workers=2 manager: 62

The above shows that test_wq is executing test_workfn() on pid 510
which is the rescuer and also that there are two tasks 69 and 500
waiting for the work item to finish in flush_work().  As test_wq has
max_active of 1, there are two work items for test_workfn1() and
test_workfn2() which are delayed till the current work item is
finished.  In addition, pid 492 is flushing test_workfn1().

The work item for test_workfn() is being executed on pwq of pool 2
which is the normal priority per-cpu pool for CPU 1.  The pool has
three workers, two of which are executing filler_workfn() for
filler_wq and the last one is assuming the manager role trying to
create more workers.

This extra workqueue state dump will hopefully help chasing down hangs
involving workqueues.

v3: cpulist_pr_cont() replaced with "%*pbl" printf formatting.

v2: As suggested by Andrew, minor formatting change in pr_cont_work(),
    printk()'s replaced with pr_info()'s, and cpumask printing now
    uses cpulist_pr_cont().

Commit 5695be14 ("OOM, PM: OOM killed task shouldn't escape PM
suspend") has left a race window when OOM killer manages to
note_oom_kill after freeze_processes checks the counter.  The race
window is quite small and really unlikely and partial solution deemed
sufficient at the time of submission.

Tejun wasn't happy about this partial solution though and insisted on a
full solution.  That requires the full OOM and freezer's task freezing
exclusion, though.  This is done by this patch which introduces oom_sem
RW lock and turns oom_killer_disable() into a full OOM barrier.

oom_killer_disabled check is moved from the allocation path to the OOM
level and we take oom_sem for reading for both the check and the whole
OOM invocation.

oom_killer_disable() takes oom_sem for writing so it waits for all
currently running OOM killer invocations.  Then it disable all the further
OOMs by setting oom_killer_disabled and checks for any oom victims.
Victims are counted via mark_tsk_oom_victim resp.  unmark_oom_victim.  The
last victim wakes up all waiters enqueued by oom_killer_disable().
Therefore this function acts as the full OOM barrier.

The page fault path is covered now as well although it was assumed to be
safe before.  As per Tejun, "We used to have freezing points deep in file
system code which may be reacheable from page fault." so it would be
better and more robust to not rely on freezing points here.  Same applies
to the memcg OOM killer.

out_of_memory tells the caller whether the OOM was allowed to trigger and
the callers are supposed to handle the situation.  The page allocation
path simply fails the allocation same as before.  The page fault path will
retry the fault (more on that later) and Sysrq OOM trigger will simply
complain to the log.

Normally there wouldn't be any unfrozen user tasks after
try_to_freeze_tasks so the function will not block. But if there was an
OOM killer racing with try_to_freeze_tasks and the OOM victim didn't
finish yet then we have to wait for it. This should complete in a finite
time, though, because

	- the victim cannot loop in the page fault handler (it would die
	  on the way out from the exception)
	- it cannot loop in the page allocator because all the further
	  allocation would fail and __GFP_NOFAIL allocations are not
	  acceptable at this stage
	- it shouldn't be blocked on any locks held by frozen tasks
	  (try_to_freeze expects lockless context) and kernel threads and
	  work queues are not frozen yet

With memoryless node support being worked on, it's possible that for
optimizations that a node may not have a non-NULL zonelist.  When
CONFIG_NUMA is enabled and node 0 is memoryless, this means the zonelist
for first_online_node may become NULL.

The oom killer requires a zonelist that includes all memory zones for
the sysrq trigger and pagefault out of memory handler.

Ensure that a non-NULL zonelist is always passed to the oom killer.

Echoing values into /proc/sysrq-trigger seems to be a popular way to get
information out of the kernel.  However, dumping information about
thousands of processes, or hundreds of CPUs to serial console can result
in IRQs being blocked for minutes, resulting in various kinds of cascade
failures.

The most common failure is due to interrupts being blocked for a very
long time.  This can lead to things like failed IO requests, and other
things the system cannot easily recover from.

This problem is easily fixable by making __handle_sysrq use RCU instead
of spin_lock_irqsave.

This leaves the warning that RCU grace periods have not elapsed for a
long time, but the system will come back from that automatically.

It also leaves sysrq-from-irq-context when the sysrq keys are pressed,
but that is probably desired since people want that to work in
situations where the system is already hosed.

The callers of register_sysrq_key and unregister_sysrq_key appear to be
capable of sleeping.

Adding a simple device tree binding for the specification of key
sequences. Definition of the keys found in the sequence are located in
'include/uapi/linux/input.h'.

For the sysrq driver, holding the sequence of keys down for a specific
amount of time will reset the system.

Attempt to reboot the system gracefully when a key combo is detected.
If the reste combination is pressed the 2nd time we assume that graceful
reboot failed and perform emergency reboot. This fucntionality is useful
when UI is stuck but the system is otherwise working fine.

Some devices have too few buttons, which it makes it hard to have
a reset combo that won't trigger automatically.  As such a
timeout functionality that requires the combination to be held for
a given amount of time before triggering is introduced.

If a key combo is recognized and held for a 'timeout' amount of time,
the system triggers a reset.  If the timeout value is omitted the
driver simply ignores the functionality.

Currently help message of /proc/sysrq-trigger highlight its
upper-case characters, like below:

      SysRq : HELP : loglevel(0-9) reBoot Crash terminate-all-tasks(E)
      memory-full-oom-kill(F) kill-all-tasks(I) ...

this would confuse user trigger sysrq by upper-case character, which is
inconsistent with the real lower-case character registed key.

This inconsistent help message will also lead more confused when
26 upper-case letters put into use in future.

This patch fix it.

Thanks the comments from Andrew and Randy.

When taking an address of an extern array, gcc quite naturally should be
able to say "an address of an object can never be NULL" and just
optimize away the test entirely.

However, the new alternate sysrq reset code (commit 154b7a48:
"Input: sysrq - allow specifying alternate reset sequence") did exactly
that, and declared platform_sysrq_reset_seq[] as a weak array, and
expecting that testing the address of the array would show whether it
actually got linked against something or not.

And that doesn't work with all gcc versions.  Clearly it works with
*some* versions of gcc, and maybe it's even supposed to work, but it
really is a very fragile concept.

So instead of testing the address of the weak variable, just create a
weak instance of that array that is empty.  If some platform then has a
real platform_sysrq_reset_seq[] that overrides our weak one, the linker
will switch to that one, and it all works without any run-time
conditionals at all.

This patch adds keyreset functionality to the sysrq driver. It allows
certain button/key combinations to be used in order to trigger emergency
reboots.

Redefining the '__weak platform_sysrq_reset_seq' variable is required
to trigger the feature.  Alternatively keys can be passed to the driver
via a module parameter.

This functionality comes from the keyreset driver submitted by
Arve Hjønnevåg in the Android kernel.

With hotpluggable and memoryless nodes, it's possible that node 0 will
not be online, so use the first online node's zonelist rather than
hardcoding node 0 to pass a zonelist with all zones to the oom killer.

Change send_sig_all() to use do_send_sig_info(SEND_SIG_FORCED) instead
of force_sig(SIGKILL).  With the recent changes we do not need force_ to
kill the CLONE_NEWPID tasks.

And this is more correct.  force_sig() can race with the exiting thread,
while do_send_sig_info(group => true) kill the whole process.

Some more notes from Oleg Nesterov:

> Just one note. This change makes no difference for sysrq_handle_kill().
> But it obviously changes the behaviour sysrq_handle_term(). I think
> this is fine, if you want to really kill the task which blocks/ignores
> SIGTERM you can use sysrq_handle_kill().

> a handler, but SIG_IGN can't help. However if it has the handler
> but blocks SIGTERM temporary (this is very common) it will be killed.

Also,

So, this patch fixes the issue.

The oom killer chooses not to kill a thread if:

 - an eligible thread has already been oom killed and has yet to exit,
   and

 - an eligible thread is exiting but has yet to free all its memory and
   is not the thread attempting to currently allocate memory.

SysRq+F manually invokes the global oom killer to kill a memory-hogging
task.  This is normally done as a last resort to free memory when no
progress is being made or to test the oom killer itself.

For both uses, we always want to kill a thread and never defer.  This
patch causes SysRq+F to always kill an eligible thread and can be used to
force a kill even if another oom killed thread has failed to exit.

Keyboard struct lifetime is easy, but the locking is not and is completely
ignored by the existing code. Tackle this one head on

- Make the kbd_table private so we can run down all direct users
- Hoick the relevant ioctl handlers into the keyboard layer
- Lock them with the keyboard lock so they don't change mid keypress
- Add helpers for things like console stop/start so we isolate the poking
  around properly
- Tweak the braille console so it still builds

There are a couple of FIXME locking cases left for ioctls that are so hideous
they should be addressed in a later patch. After this patch the kbd_table is
private and all the keyboard jiggery pokery is in one place.

This update fixes speakup and also a memory leak in the original.
