d380dcde9a tracing: Fix now invalid var_ref_vals assumption in trace action
The patch 'tracing: Fix histogram code when expression has same var as
value' added code to return an existing variable reference when
creating a new variable reference, which resulted in var_ref_vals
slots being reused instead of being duplicated.

The implementation of the trace action assumes that the end of the
var_ref_vals array starting at action_data.var_ref_idx corresponds to
the values that will be assigned to the trace params. The patch
mentioned above invalidates that assumption, which means that each
param needs to explicitly specify its index into var_ref_vals.

This fix changes action_data.var_ref_idx to an array of var ref
indexes to account for that.

bbfceba15f kdb: Get rid of confusing diag msg from "rd" if current task has no regs
If you switch to a sleeping task with the "pid" command and then type
"rd", kdb tells you this:

  No current kdb registers.  You may need to select another task
  diag: -17: Invalid register name

The first message makes sense, but not the second.  Fix it by just
returning 0 after commands accessing the current registers finish if
we've already printed the "No current kdb registers" error.

While fixing kdb_rd(), change the function to use "if" rather than
"ifdef".  It cleans the function up a bit and any modern compiler will
have no trouble handling still producing good code.

9441d5f6b7 kdb: Gid rid of implicit setting of the current task / regs
Some (but not all?) of the kdb backtrace paths would cause the
kdb_current_task and kdb_current_regs to remain changed.  As discussed
in a review of a previous patch [1], this doesn't seem intuitive, so
let's fix that.

...but, it turns out that there's actually no longer any reason to set
the current task / current regs while backtracing anymore anyway.  As
of commit 2277b49258 ("kdb: Fix stack crawling on 'running' CPUs
that aren't the master") if we're backtracing on a task running on a
CPU we ask that CPU to do the backtrace itself.  Linux can do that
without anything fancy.  If we're doing backtrace on a sleeping task
we can also do that fine without updating globals.  So this patch
mostly just turns into deleting a bunch of code.

a8649fb0a8 kdb: kdb_current_task shouldn't be exported
The kdb_current_task variable has been declared in
"kernel/debug/kdb/kdb_private.h" since 2010 when kdb was added to the
mainline kernel.  This is not a public header.  There should be no
reason that kdb_current_task should be exported and there are no
in-kernel users that need it.  Remove the export.

5153faac18 ("cgroup: remove cgroup_enable_task_cg_lists()

tasks are always lniked to its css_set. In the process, it incorrectly
ended up adding init_tasks to root css_set. They show up as PID 0's in
root's cgroup.procs triggering warnings in systemd and generally
confusing people.

Fix it by skip css_set linking for init_tasks.

86c5426bad tracing: Add dynamic event command creation interface
Add an interface used to build up dynamic event creation commands,
such as synthetic and kprobe events.  Interfaces specific to those
particular types of events and others can be built on top of this
interface.

Command creation is started by first using the dynevent_cmd_init()
function to initialize the dynevent_cmd object.  Following that, args
are appended and optionally checked by the dynevent_arg_add() and
dynevent_arg_pair_add() functions, which use objects representing
arguments and pairs of arguments, initialized respectively by
dynevent_arg_init() and dynevent_arg_pair_init().  Finally, once all
args have been successfully added, the command is finalized and
actually created using dynevent_create().

The code here for actually printing into the dyn_event->cmd buffer
using snprintf() etc was adapted from v4 of Masami's 'tracing/boot:
Add synthetic event support' patch.

 "Sargun Dhillon over the last cycle has worked on the pidfd_getfd()
  syscall.

  This syscall allows for the retrieval of file descriptors of a process
  based on its pidfd. A task needs to have ptrace_may_access()
  permissions with PTRACE_MODE_ATTACH_REALCREDS (suggested by Oleg and
  Andy) on the target.

  One of the main use-cases is in combination with seccomp's user
  notification feature. As a reminder, seccomp's user notification
  feature was made available in v5.0. It allows a task to retrieve a
  file descriptor for its seccomp filter. The file descriptor is usually
  handed of to a more privileged supervising process. The supervisor can
  then listen for syscall events caught by the seccomp filter of the
  supervisee and perform actions in lieu of the supervisee, usually
  emulating syscalls. pidfd_getfd() is needed to expand its uses.

  There are currently two major users that wait on pidfd_getfd() and one
  future user:

   - Netflix, Sargun said, is working on a service mesh where users
     should be able to connect to a dns-based VIP. When a user connects
     to e.g. 1.2.3.4:80 that runs e.g. service "foo" they will be
     redirected to an envoy process. This service mesh uses seccomp user
     notifications and pidfd to intercept all connect calls and instead
     of connecting them to 1.2.3.4:80 connects them to e.g.
     127.0.0.1:8080.

   - LXD uses the seccomp notifier heavily to intercept and emulate
     mknod() and mount() syscalls for unprivileged containers/processes.
     With pidfd_getfd() more uses-cases e.g. bridging socket connections
     will be possible.

   - The patchset has also seen some interest from the browser corner.
     Right now, Firefox is using a SECCOMP_RET_TRAP sandbox managed by a
     broker process. In the future glibc will start blocking all signals
     during dlopen() rendering this type of sandbox impossible. Hence,
     in the future Firefox will switch to a seccomp-user-nofication
     based sandbox which also makes use of file descriptor retrieval.
     The thread for this can be found at
     https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2019-12/msg00079.html

  With pidfd_getfd() it is e.g. possible to bridge socket connections
  for the supervisee (binding to a privileged port) and taking actions
  on file descriptors on behalf of the supervisee in general.

  Sargun's first version was using an ioctl on pidfds but various people
  pushed for it to be a proper syscall which he duely implemented as
  well over various review cycles. Selftests are of course included.
  I've also added instructions how to deal with merge conflicts below.

  There's also a small fix coming from the kernel mentee project to
  correctly annotate struct sighand_struct with __rcu to fix various
  sparse warnings. We've received a few more such fixes and even though
  they are mostly trivial I've decided to postpone them until after -rc1
  since they came in rather late and I don't want to risk introducing
  build warnings.

  Finally, there's a new prctl() command PR_{G,S}ET_IO_FLUSHER which is
  needed to avoid allocation recursions triggerable by storage drivers
  that have userspace parts that run in the IO path (e.g. dm-multipath,
  iscsi, etc). These allocation recursions deadlock the device.

  The new prctl() allows such privileged userspace components to avoid
  allocation recursions by setting the PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO and
  PF_LESS_THROTTLE flags. The patch carries the necessary acks from the
  relevant maintainers and is routed here as part of prctl()
  thread-management."

 "Core, driver and file system changes

  These are updates to device drivers and file systems that for some
  reason or another were not included in the kernel in the previous
  y2038 series.

  I've gone through all users of time_t again to make sure the kernel is
  in a long-term maintainable state, replacing all remaining references
  to time_t with safe alternatives.

  Some related parts of the series were picked up into the nfsd, xfs,
  alsa and v4l2 trees. A final set of patches in linux-mm removes the
  now unused time_t/timeval/timespec types and helper functions after
  all five branches are merged for linux-5.6, ensuring that no new users
  get merged.

  As a result, linux-5.6, or my backport of the patches to 5.4 [1],
  should be the first release that can serve as a base for a 32-bit
  system designed to run beyond year 2038, with a few remaining caveats:

   - All user space must be compiled with a 64-bit time_t, which will be
     supported in the coming musl-1.2 and glibc-2.32 releases, along
     with installed kernel headers from linux-5.6 or higher.

   - Applications that use the system call interfaces directly need to
     be ported to use the time64 syscalls added in linux-5.1 in place of
     the existing system calls. This impacts most users of futex() and
     seccomp() as well as programming languages that have their own
     runtime environment not based on libc.

   - Applications that use a private copy of kernel uapi header files or
     their contents may need to update to the linux-5.6 version, in
     particular for sound/asound.h, xfs/xfs_fs.h, linux/input.h,
     linux/elfcore.h, linux/sockios.h, linux/timex.h and
     linux/can/bcm.h.

   - A few remaining interfaces cannot be changed to pass a 64-bit
     time_t in a compatible way, so they must be configured to use
     CLOCK_MONOTONIC times or (with a y2106 problem) unsigned 32-bit
     timestamps. Most importantly this impacts all users of 'struct
     input_event'.

   - All y2038 problems that are present on 64-bit machines also apply
     to 32-bit machines. In particular this affects file systems with
     on-disk timestamps using signed 32-bit seconds: ext4 with
     ext3-style small inodes, ext2, xfs (to be fixed soon) and ufs"

6aee4badd8 Merge branch 'work.openat2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs
Pull openat2 support from Al Viro:
 "This is the openat2() series from Aleksa Sarai.

  I'm afraid that the rest of namei stuff will have to wait - it got
  zero review the last time I'd posted #work.namei, and there had been a
  leak in the posted series I'd caught only last weekend. I was going to
  repost it on Monday, but the window opened and the odds of getting any
  review during that... Oh, well.

  Anyway, openat2 part should be ready; that _did_ get sane amount of
  review and public testing, so here it comes"

From Aleksa's description of the series:
 "For a very long time, extending openat(2) with new features has been
  incredibly frustrating. This stems from the fact that openat(2) is
  possibly the most famous counter-example to the mantra "don't silently
  accept garbage from userspace" -- it doesn't check whether unknown
  flags are present[1].

  This means that (generally) the addition of new flags to openat(2) has
  been fraught with backwards-compatibility issues (O_TMPFILE has to be
  defined as __O_TMPFILE|O_DIRECTORY|[O_RDWR or O_WRONLY] to ensure old
  kernels gave errors, since it's insecure to silently ignore the
  flag[2]). All new security-related flags therefore have a tough road
  to being added to openat(2).

  Furthermore, the need for some sort of control over VFS's path
  resolution (to avoid malicious paths resulting in inadvertent
  breakouts) has been a very long-standing desire of many userspace
  applications.

  This patchset is a revival of Al Viro's old AT_NO_JUMPS[3] patchset
  (which was a variant of David Drysdale's O_BENEATH patchset[4] which
  was a spin-off of the Capsicum project[5]) with a few additions and
  changes made based on the previous discussion within [6] as well as
  others I felt were useful.

  In line with the conclusions of the original discussion of
  AT_NO_JUMPS, the flag has been split up into separate flags. However,
  instead of being an openat(2) flag it is provided through a new
  syscall openat2(2) which provides several other improvements to the
  openat(2) interface (see the patch description for more details). The
  following new LOOKUP_* flags are added:

  LOOKUP_NO_XDEV:

     Blocks all mountpoint crossings (upwards, downwards, or through
     absolute links). Absolute pathnames alone in openat(2) do not
     trigger this. Magic-link traversal which implies a vfsmount jump is
     also blocked (though magic-link jumps on the same vfsmount are
     permitted).

  LOOKUP_NO_MAGICLINKS:

     Blocks resolution through /proc/$pid/fd-style links. This is done
     by blocking the usage of nd_jump_link() during resolution in a
     filesystem. The term "magic-links" is used to match with the only
     reference to these links in Documentation/, but I'm happy to change
     the name.

     It should be noted that this is different to the scope of
     ~LOOKUP_FOLLOW in that it applies to all path components. However,
     you can do openat2(NO_FOLLOW|NO_MAGICLINKS) on a magic-link and it
     will *not* fail (assuming that no parent component was a
     magic-link), and you will have an fd for the magic-link.

     In order to correctly detect magic-links, the introduction of a new
     LOOKUP_MAGICLINK_JUMPED state flag was required.

  LOOKUP_BENEATH:

     Disallows escapes to outside the starting dirfd's
     tree, using techniques such as ".." or absolute links. Absolute
     paths in openat(2) are also disallowed.

     Conceptually this flag is to ensure you "stay below" a certain
     point in the filesystem tree -- but this requires some additional
     to protect against various races that would allow escape using
     "..".

     Currently LOOKUP_BENEATH implies LOOKUP_NO_MAGICLINKS, because it
     can trivially beam you around the filesystem (breaking the
     protection). In future, there might be similar safety checks done
     as in LOOKUP_IN_ROOT, but that requires more discussion.

  In addition, two new flags are added that expand on the above ideas:

  LOOKUP_NO_SYMLINKS:

     Does what it says on the tin. No symlink resolution is allowed at
     all, including magic-links. Just as with LOOKUP_NO_MAGICLINKS this
     can still be used with NOFOLLOW to open an fd for the symlink as
     long as no parent path had a symlink component.

  LOOKUP_IN_ROOT:

     This is an extension of LOOKUP_BENEATH that, rather than blocking
     attempts to move past the root, forces all such movements to be
     scoped to the starting point. This provides chroot(2)-like
     protection but without the cost of a chroot(2) for each filesystem
     operation, as well as being safe against race attacks that
     chroot(2) is not.

     If a race is detected (as with LOOKUP_BENEATH) then an error is
     generated, and similar to LOOKUP_BENEATH it is not permitted to
     cross magic-links with LOOKUP_IN_ROOT.

     The primary need for this is from container runtimes, which
     currently need to do symlink scoping in userspace[7] when opening
     paths in a potentially malicious container.

     There is a long list of CVEs that could have bene mitigated by
     having RESOLVE_THIS_ROOT (such as CVE-2017-1002101,
     CVE-2017-1002102, CVE-2018-15664, and CVE-2019-5736, just to name a
     few).

  In order to make all of the above more usable, I'm working on
  libpathrs[8] which is a C-friendly library for safe path resolution.
  It features a userspace-emulated backend if the kernel doesn't support
  openat2(2). Hopefully we can get userspace to switch to using it, and
  thus get openat2(2) support for free once it's ready.

  Future work would include implementing things like
  RESOLVE_NO_AUTOMOUNT and possibly a RESOLVE_NO_REMOTE (to allow
  programs to be sure they don't hit DoSes though stale NFS handles)"

b527b638fd tracing: Simplify assignment parsing for hist triggers
In the process of adding better error messages for sorting, I realized
that strsep was being used incorrectly and some of the error paths I
was expecting to be hit weren't and just fell through to the common
invalid key error case.

It also became obvious that for keyword assignments, it wasn't
necessary to save the full assignment and reparse it later, and having
a common empty-assignment check would also make more sense in terms of
error processing.

Change the code to fix these problems and simplify it for new error
message changes in a subsequent patch.

2a4b03ffc6 sched/fair: Prevent unlimited runtime on throttled group
When a running task is moved on a throttled task group and there is no
other task enqueued on the CPU, the task can keep running using 100% CPU
whatever the allocated bandwidth for the group and although its cfs rq is
throttled. Furthermore, the group entity of the cfs_rq and its parents are
not enqueued but only set as curr on their respective cfs_rqs.

We have the following sequence:

sched_move_task
  -dequeue_task: dequeue task and group_entities.
  -put_prev_task: put task and group entities.
  -sched_change_group: move task to new group.
  -enqueue_task: enqueue only task but not group entities because cfs_rq is
    throttled.
  -set_next_task : set task and group_entities as current sched_entity of
    their cfs_rq.

Another impact is that the root cfs_rq runnable_load_avg at root rq stays
null because the group_entities are not enqueued. This situation will stay
the same until an "external" event triggers a reschedule. Let trigger it
immediately instead.

e938b9c941 sched/nohz: Optimize get_nohz_timer_target()
On a machine, CPU 0 is used for housekeeping, the other 39 CPUs in the
same socket are in nohz_full mode. We can observe huge time burn in the
loop for seaching nearest busy housekeeper cpu by ftrace.

  2)               |                        get_nohz_timer_target() {
  2)   0.240 us    |                          housekeeping_test_cpu();
  2)   0.458 us    |                          housekeeping_test_cpu();

  ...

  2)   0.292 us    |                          housekeeping_test_cpu();
  2)   0.240 us    |                          housekeeping_test_cpu();
  2)   0.227 us    |                          housekeeping_any_cpu();
  2) + 43.460 us   |                        }

This patch optimizes the searching logic by finding a nearest housekeeper
CPU in the housekeeping cpumask, it can minimize the worst searching time
from ~44us to < 10us in my testing. In addition, the last iterated busy
housekeeper can become a random candidate while current CPU is a better
fallback if it is a housekeeper.

b396f52326 sched/fair: Allow a small load imbalance between low utilisation SD_NUMA domains
The CPU load balancer balances between different domains to spread load
and strives to have equal balance everywhere. Communicating tasks can
migrate so they are topologically close to each other but these decisions
are independent. On a lightly loaded NUMA machine, two communicating tasks
pulled together at wakeup time can be pushed apart by the load balancer.
In isolation, the load balancer decision is fine but it ignores the tasks
data locality and the wakeup/LB paths continually conflict. NUMA balancing
is also a factor but it also simply conflicts with the load balancer.

This patch allows a fixed degree of imbalance of two tasks to exist
between NUMA domains regardless of utilisation levels. In many cases,
this prevents communicating tasks being pulled apart. It was evaluated
whether the imbalance should be scaled to the domain size. However, no
additional benefit was measured across a range of workloads and machines
and scaling adds the risk that lower domains have to be rebalanced. While
this could change again in the future, such a change should specify the
use case and benefit.

The most obvious impact is on netperf TCP_STREAM -- two simple
communicating tasks with some softirq offload depending on the
transmission rate.

In this case, there was a sizable improvement to performance and
a general reduction in variance. However, this is not univeral.
For most machines, the impact was roughly a 3% performance gain.

 Ops NUMA pages migrated                 4244.00           1.00

Without the patch, only 52.18% of sampled accesses are local.  In an
earlier changelog, 100% of sampled accesses are local and indeed on
most machines, this was still the case. In this specific case, the
local sampled rates was 99.3% but note the "base-page range updates"
and "PTE updates".  The activity with the patch is negligible as were
the number of faults. The small number of pages migrated were related to
shared libraries.  A 2-socket Broadwell showed better results on average
but are not presented for brevity as the performance was similar except
it showed 100% of the sampled NUMA hints were local. The patch holds up
for a 4-socket Haswell, an AMD EPYC and AMD Epyc 2 machine.

For dbench, the impact depends on the filesystem used and the number of
clients. On XFS, there is little difference as the clients typically
communicate with workqueues which have a separate class of scheduler
problem at the moment. For ext4, performance is generally better,
particularly for small numbers of clients as NUMA balancing activity is
negligible with the patch applied.

A more interesting example is the Facebook schbench which uses a
number of messaging threads to communicate with worker threads. In this
configuration, one messaging thread is used per NUMA node and the number of
worker threads is varied. The 50, 75, 90, 95, 99, 99.5 and 99.9 percentiles
for response latency is then reported.

For higher worker threads, the differences become negligible but it's
interesting to note the difference in wakeup latency at low utilisation
and mpstat confirms that activity was almost all on one node until
the number of worker threads increase.

Hackbench generally showed neutral results across a range of machines.
This is different to earlier versions of the patch which allowed imbalances
for higher degrees of utilisation. perf bench pipe showed negligible
differences in overall performance as the differences are very close to
the noise.

An earlier prototype of the patch showed major regressions for NAS C-class
when running with only half of the available CPUs -- 20-30% performance
hits were measured at the time. With this version of the patch, the impact
is negligible with small gains/losses within the noise measured. This is
because the number of threads far exceeds the small imbalance the aptch
cares about. Similarly, there were report of regressions for the autonuma
benchmark against earlier versions but again, normal load balancing now
applies for that workload.

In general, the patch simply seeks to avoid unnecessary cross-node
migrations in the basic case where imbalances are very small.  For low
utilisation communicating workloads, this patch generally behaves better
with less NUMA balancing activity. For high utilisation, there is no
change in behaviour.

ebc0f83c78 timers/nohz: Update NOHZ load in remote tick
The way loadavg is tracked during nohz only pays attention to the load
upon entering nohz.  This can be particularly noticeable if full nohz is
entered while non-idle, and then the cpu goes idle and stays that way for
a long time.

Use the remote tick to ensure that full nohz cpus report their deltas
within a reasonable time.
