      tracing: Use current_uid() for critical time tracing · f17a5194
      Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) 提交于
      The irqsoff tracer records the max time that interrupts are disabled.
      There are hooks in the assembly code that calls back into the tracer when
      interrupts are disabled or enabled.
      
      When they are enabled, the tracer checks if the amount of time they
      were disabled is larger than the previous recorded max interrupts off
      time. If it is, it creates a snapshot of the currently running trace
      to store where the last largest interrupts off time was held and how
      it happened.
      
      During testing, this RCU lockdep dump appeared:

      What happened was entering into the user code, the interrupts were enabled
      and a max interrupts off was recorded. The trace buffer was saved along with
      various information about the task: comm, pid, uid, priority, etc.
      
      The uid is recorded with task_uid(tsk). But this is a macro that uses rcu_read_lock()
      to retrieve the data, and this happened to happen where RCU is blind (user_enter).
      
      As only the preempt and irqs off tracers can have this happen, and they both
      only have the tsk == current, if tsk == current, use current_uid() instead of
      task_uid(), as current_uid() does not use RCU as only current can change its uid.
      
      This fixes the RCU suspicious splat.

      tracing: Fix crash when ftrace=nop on the kernel command line · ca164318
      Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) 提交于
      If ftrace=<tracer> is on the kernel command line, when that tracer is
      registered, it will be initiated by tracing_set_tracer() to execute that
      tracer.
      
      The nop tracer is just a stub tracer that is used to have no tracer
      enabled. It is assigned at early bootup as it is the default tracer.
      
      But if ftrace=nop is on the kernel command line, the registering of the
      nop tracer will call tracing_set_tracer() which will try to execute
      the nop tracer. But it expects tr->current_trace to be assigned something
      as it usually is assigned to the nop tracer. As it hasn't been assigned
      to anything yet, it causes the system to crash.
      
      The simple fix is to move the tr->current_trace = nop before registering
      the nop tracer. The functionality is still the same as the nop tracer
      doesn't do anything anyway.

      irqdomain: Allow quiet failure mode · 5fe0c1f2
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
      Some interrupt controllers refuse to map interrupts marked as
      "protected" by firwmare. Since we try to map everyting in the
      device-tree on some platforms, we end up with a lot of nasty
      WARN's in the boot log for what is a normal situation on those
      machines.
      
      This defines a specific return code (-EPERM) from the host map()
      callback which cause irqdomain to fail silently.
      
      MPIC is updated to return this when hitting a protected source
      printing only a single line message for diagnostic purposes.

      sched: Keep at least 1 tick per second for active dynticks tasks · 265f22a9
      Frederic Weisbecker 提交于
      The scheduler doesn't yet fully support environments
      with a single task running without a periodic tick.
      
      In order to ensure we still maintain the duties of scheduler_tick(),
      keep at least 1 tick per second.
      
      This makes sure that we keep the progression of various scheduler
      accounting and background maintainance even with a very low granularity.
      Examples include cpu load, sched average, CFS entity vruntime,
      avenrun and events such as load balancing, amongst other details
      handled in sched_class::task_tick().
      
      This limitation will be removed in the future once we get
      these individual items to work in full dynticks CPUs.

      rcu: Fix full dynticks' dependency on wide RCU nocb mode · 73c30828
      Frederic Weisbecker 提交于
      Commit 0637e029
      ("nohz: Select wide RCU nocb for full dynticks") intended
      to force CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU_ALL=y when full dynticks is
      enabled.
      
      However this option is part of a choice menu and Kconfig's
      "select" instruction has no effect on such targets.
      
      Fix this by using reverse dependencies on the targets we
      don't want instead.

      ring-buffer: Select IRQ_WORK · 22287688
      Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) 提交于
      As the wake up logic for waiters on the buffer has been moved
      from the tracing code to the ring buffer, it requires also adding
      IRQ_WORK as the wake up code is performed via irq_work.
      
      This fixes compile breakage when a user of the ring buffer is selected
      but tracing and irq_work are not.
