749860ce24 prctl: propagate has_child_subreaper flag to every descendant
If process forks some children when it has is_child_subreaper
flag enabled they will inherit has_child_subreaper flag - first
group, when is_child_subreaper is disabled forked children will
not inherit it - second group. So child-subreaper does not reparent
all his descendants when their parents die. Having these two
differently behaving groups can lead to confusion. Also it is
a problem for CRIU, as when we restore process tree we need to
somehow determine which descendants belong to which group and
much harder - to put them exactly to these group.

To simplify these we can add a propagation of has_child_subreaper
flag on PR_SET_CHILD_SUBREAPER, walking all descendants of child-
subreaper to setup has_child_subreaper flag.

In common cases when process like systemd first sets itself to
be a child-subreaper and only after that forks its services, we will
have zero-length list of descendants to walk. Testing with binary
subtree of 2^15 processes prctl took < 0.007 sec and has shown close
to linear dependency(~0.2 * n * usec) on lower numbers of processes.

Moreover, I doubt someone intentionaly pre-forks the children whitch
should reparent to init before becoming subreaper, because some our
ancestor migh have had is_child_subreaper flag while forking our
sub-tree and our childs will all inherit has_child_subreaper flag,
and we have no way to influence it. And only way to check if we have
no has_child_subreaper flag is to create some childs, kill them and
see where they will reparent to.

Using walk_process_tree helper to walk subtree, thanks to Oleg! Timing
seems to be the same.

Optimize:

a) When descendant already has has_child_subreaper flag all his subtree
has it too already.

* for a) to be true need to move has_child_subreaper inheritance under
the same tasklist_lock with adding task to its ->real_parent->children
as without it process can inherit zero has_child_subreaper, then we
set 1 to it's parent flag, check that parent has no more children, and
only after child with wrong flag is added to the tree.

* Also make these inheritance more clear by using real_parent instead of
current, as on clone(CLONE_PARENT) if current has is_child_subreaper
and real_parent has no is_child_subreaper or has_child_subreaper, child
will have has_child_subreaper flag set without actually having a
subreaper in it's ancestors.

b) When some descendant is child_reaper, it's subtree is in different
pidns from us(original child-subreaper) and processes from other pidns
will never reparent to us.

So we can skip their(a,b) subtree from walk.

v2: switch to walk_process_tree() general helper, move
has_child_subreaper inheritance
v3: remove csr_descendant leftover, change current to real_parent
in has_child_subreaper inheritance
v4: small commit message fix

576dd46450 cgroup: drop the matching uid requirement on migration for cgroup v2
Along with the write access to the cgroup.procs or tasks file, cgroup
has required the writer's euid, unless root, to match [s]uid of the
target process or task.  On cgroup v1, this is necessary because
there's nothing preventing a delegatee from pulling in tasks or
processes from all over the system.

If a user has a cgroup subdirectory delegated to it, the user would
have write access to the cgroup.procs or tasks file.  If there are no
further checks than file write access check, the user would be able to
pull processes from all over the system into its subhierarchy which is
clearly not the intended behavior.  The matching [s]uid requirement
partially prevents this problem by allowing a delegatee to pull in the
processes that belongs to it.  This isn't a sufficient protection
however, because a user would still be able to jump processes across
two disjoint sub-hierarchies that has been delegated to them.

cgroup v2 resolves the issue by requiring the writer to have access to
the common ancestor of the cgroup.procs file of the source and target
cgroups.  This confines each delegatee to their own sub-hierarchy
proper and bases all permission decisions on the cgroup filesystem
rather than having to pull in explicit uid matching.

cgroup v2 has still been applying the matching [s]uid requirement just
for historical reasons.  On cgroup2, the requirement doesn't serve any
purpose while unnecessarily complicating the permission model.  Let's
drop it.

968ebff1ef cgroup, perf_event: make perf_event controller work on cgroup2 hierarchy
perf_event is a utility controller whose primary role is identifying
cgroup membership to filter perf events; however, because it also
tracks some per-css state, it can't be replaced by pure cgroup
membership test.  Mark the controller as implicitly enabled on the
default hierarchy so that perf events can always be filtered based on
cgroup v2 path as long as the controller is not mounted on a legacy
hierarchy.

"perf record" is updated accordingly so that it searches for both v1
and v2 hierarchies.  A v1 hierarchy is used if perf_event is mounted
on it; otherwise, it uses the v2 hierarchy.

v2: Doc updated to reflect more flexible rebinding behavior.

6ac93117ab blktrace: use existing disk debugfs directory
We may already have a directory to put the blktrace stuff in if

1. The disk uses blk-mq
2. CONFIG_BLK_DEBUG_FS is enabled
3. We are tracing the whole disk and not a partition

Instead of hardcoding this very specific case, let's use the new
debugfs_lookup(). If the directory exists, we use it, otherwise we
create one and clean it up later.

93faccbbfa fs: Better permission checking for submounts
To support unprivileged users mounting filesystems two permission
checks have to be performed: a test to see if the user allowed to
create a mount in the mount namespace, and a test to see if
the user is allowed to access the specified filesystem.

The automount case is special in that mounting the original filesystem
grants permission to mount the sub-filesystems, to any user who
happens to stumble across the their mountpoint and satisfies the
ordinary filesystem permission checks.

Attempting to handle the automount case by using override_creds
almost works.  It preserves the idea that permission to mount
the original filesystem is permission to mount the sub-filesystem.
Unfortunately using override_creds messes up the filesystems
ordinary permission checks.

Solve this by being explicit that a mount is a submount by introducing
vfs_submount, and using it where appropriate.

vfs_submount uses a new mount internal mount flags MS_SUBMOUNT, to let
sget and friends know that a mount is a submount so they can take appropriate
action.

sget and sget_userns are modified to not perform any permission checks
on submounts.

follow_automount is modified to stop using override_creds as that
has proven problemantic.

do_mount is modified to always remove the new MS_SUBMOUNT flag so
that we know userspace will never by able to specify it.

autofs4 is modified to stop using current_real_cred that was put in
there to handle the previous version of submount permission checking.

cifs is modified to pass the mountpoint all of the way down to vfs_submount.

debugfs is modified to pass the mountpoint all of the way down to
trace_automount by adding a new parameter.  To make this change easier
a new typedef debugfs_automount_t is introduced to capture the type of
the debugfs automount function.

975e155ed8 sched/rt: Show the 'sched_rr_timeslice' SCHED_RR timeslice tuning knob in milliseconds
We added the 'sched_rr_timeslice_ms' SCHED_RR tuning knob in this commit:

  ce0dbbbb30ae ("sched/rt: Add a tuning knob to allow changing SCHED_RR timeslice")

... which name suggests to users that it's in milliseconds, while in reality
it's being set in milliseconds but the result is shown in jiffies.

This is obviously confusing when HZ is not 1000, it makes it appear like the
value set failed, such as HZ=100:

  root# echo 100 > /proc/sys/kernel/sched_rr_timeslice_ms
  root# cat /proc/sys/kernel/sched_rr_timeslice_ms
  10

Fix this to be milliseconds all around.

a499a5a14d sched/cputime: Increment kcpustat directly on irqtime account
The irqtime is accounted is nsecs and stored in
cpu_irq_time.hardirq_time and cpu_irq_time.softirq_time. Once the
accumulated amount reaches a new jiffy, this one gets accounted to the
kcpustat.

This was necessary when kcpustat was stored in cputime_t, which could at
worst have jiffies granularity. But now kcpustat is stored in nsecs
so this whole discretization game with temporary irqtime storage has
become unnecessary.

We can now directly account the irqtime to the kcpustat.

5613fda9a5 sched/cputime: Convert task/group cputime to nsecs
Now that most cputime readers use the transition API which return the
task cputime in old style cputime_t, we can safely store the cputime in
nsecs. This will eventually make cputime statistics less opaque and more
granular. Back and forth convertions between cputime_t and nsecs in order
to deal with cputime_t random granularity won't be needed anymore.

Converting them to nsecs simplifies the code and is one step toward

c6c70f4455 exit: fix the setns() && PR_SET_CHILD_SUBREAPER interaction
find_new_reaper() checks same_thread_group(reaper, child_reaper) to
prevent the cross-namespace reparenting but this is not enough if the
exiting parent was injected by setns() + fork().

Suppose we have a process P in the root namespace and some namespace X.
P does setns() to enter the X namespace, and forks the child C.
C forks a grandchild G and exits.

The grandchild G should be re-parented to X->child_reaper, but in this
case the ->real_parent chain does not lead to ->child_reaper, so it will
be wrongly reparanted to P's sub-reaper or a global init.

79c6f448c8 tracing: Fix hwlat kthread migration
The hwlat tracer creates a kernel thread at start of the tracer. It is
pinned to a single CPU and will move to the next CPU after each period of
running. If the user modifies the migration thread's affinity, it will not
change after that happens.

The original code created the thread at the first instance it was called,
but later was changed to destroy the thread after the tracer was finished,
and would not be created until the next instance of the tracer was
established. The code that initialized the affinity was only called on the
initial instantiation of the tracer. After that, it was not initialized, and
the previous affinity did not match the current newly created one, making
it appear that the user modified the thread's affinity when it did not, and
the thread failed to migrate again.

08d85f3ea9 irqdomain: Avoid activating interrupts more than once
Since commit f3b0946d629c ("genirq/msi: Make sure PCI MSIs are
activated early"), we can end-up activating a PCI/MSI twice (once
at allocation time, and once at startup time).

This is normally of no consequences, except that there is some
HW out there that may misbehave if activate is used more than once
(the GICv3 ITS, for example, uses the activate callback
to issue the MAPVI command, and the architecture spec says that
"If there is an existing mapping for the EventID-DeviceID
combination, behavior is UNPREDICTABLE").

While this could be worked around in each individual driver, it may
make more sense to tackle the issue at the core level. In order to
avoid getting in that situation, let's have a per-interrupt flag
to remember if we have already activated that interrupt or not.

40999312c7 perf/core: Try parent PMU first when initializing a child event
perf has additional overhead when monitoring the task which
frequently generates child tasks.

perf_init_event() is one of the hotspots for the additional overhead:

Currently, to get the PMU, it tries to search the type in pmu_idr at
first. But it is not always successful, especially for the widely used
PERF_TYPE_HARDWARE and PERF_TYPE_HW_CACHE events. So it has to go to the
slow path which go through the whole PMUs list.

It will be a big performance issue, if the PMUs list is long (e.g. server
with many uncore boxes) and the task frequently generates child tasks.

The child event inherits its parent event. So the child event should
try its parent PMU first.

Here is some data from the overhead test on Broadwell server:

  perf record -e $TEST_EVENTS -- ./loop.sh 50000

  loop.sh
    start=$(date +%s%N)
    i=0
    while [ "$i" -le "$1" ]
    do
            date > /dev/null
            i=`expr $i + 1`
    done
    end=$(date +%s%N)
    elapsed=`expr $end - $start`

  Event#	Original elapsed time	Elapsed time with patch		delta
  1		196,573,192,397		189,162,029,998			-3.77%
  2		257,567,753,013		241,620,788,683			-6.19%

  16		1,883,411,923,498	1,672,027,508,355		-11.22%

... which shows a nice performance improvement.

487f05e18a perf/core: Optimize event rescheduling on active contexts
When new events are added to an active context, we go and reschedule
all cpu groups and all task groups in order to preserve the priority
(cpu pinned, task pinned, cpu flexible, task flexible), but in
reality we only need to reschedule groups of the same priority as
that of the events being added, and below.

This patch changes the behavior so that only groups that need to be

fe45bafbd0 perf/core: Don't re-schedule CPU flexible events needlessly
In the sched-in path, we first remove a CPU's flexible events in order to
give priority to the task's pinned events. However, this step can be safely
skipped if the task doesn't have its own pinned events.

This patch implements this skipping.

1fd7e41699 perf/core: Remove perf_cpu_context::unique_pmu
cpuctx->unique_pmu was originally introduced as a way to identify cpuctxs
with shared pmus in order to avoid visiting the same cpuctx more than once
in a for_each_pmu loop.

cpuctx->unique_pmu == cpuctx->pmu in non-software task contexts since they
have only one pmu per cpuctx. Since perf_pmu_sched_task() is only called in
hw contexts, this patch replaces cpuctx->unique_pmu by cpuctx->pmu in it.

The change above, together with the previous patch in this series, removed
the remaining uses of cpuctx->unique_pmu, so we remove it altogether.

058fe1c044 perf/core: Make cgroup switch visit only cpuctxs with cgroup events
This patch follows from a conversation in CQM/CMT's last series about
speeding up the context switch for cgroup events:

  https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9478617/

This is a low-hanging fruit optimization. It replaces the iteration over
the "pmus" list in cgroup switch by an iteration over a new list that
contains only cpuctxs with at least one cgroup event.

This is necessary because the number of PMUs have increased over the years
e.g modern x86 server systems have well above 50 PMUs.

The iteration over the full PMU list is unneccessary and can be costly in
heavy cache contention scenarios.

Below are some instrumentation measurements with 10, 50 and 90 percentiles
of the total cost of context switch before and after this optimization for
a simple array read/write microbenchark.

  Contention
    Level    Nr events      Before (us)            After (us)       Median
  L2    L3     types      (10%, 50%, 90%)       (10%, 50%, 90%     Speedup
  --------------------------------------------------------------------------
  Low   Low       1       (1.72, 2.42, 5.85)    (1.35, 1.64, 5.46)     29%
  High  Low       1       (2.08, 4.56, 19.8)    (1720, 2.20, 13.7)     51%
  High  High      1       (2.86, 10.4, 12.7)    (2.54, 4.32, 12.1)     58%

  Low   Low       2       (1.98, 3.20, 6.89)    (1.68, 2.41, 8.89)     24%
  High  Low       2       (2.48, 5.28, 22.4)    (2150, 3.69, 14.6)     30%
  High  High      2       (3.32, 8.09, 13.9)    (2.80, 5.15, 13.7)     36%

where:

  1 event type  = cycles
  2 event types = cycles,intel_cqm/llc_occupancy/

   Contention L2 Low: workset  <  L2 cache size.
                 High:  "     >>  L2   "     " .
   Contention L3 Low: workset of task on all sockets  <  L3 cache size.
                 High:   "     "   "   "   "    "    >>  L3   "     " .

   Median Speedup is (50%ile Before - 50%ile After) /  50%ile Before

Unsurprisingly, the benefits of this optimization decrease with the number
of cpuctxs with a cgroup events, yet, is never detrimental.
