Patch series "kexec_file, x86, powerpc: refactoring for other
architecutres", v2.
This is a preparatory patchset for adding kexec_file support on arm64.
It was originally included in a arm64 patch set[1], but Philipp is also
working on their kexec_file support on s390[2] and some changes are now
conflicting.
So these common parts were extracted and put into a separate patch set
for better integration. What's more, my original patch#4 was split into
a few small chunks for easier review after Dave's comment.
As such, the resulting code is basically identical with my original, and
the only *visible* differences are:
- renaming of _kexec_kernel_image_probe() and _kimage_file_post_load_cleanup()
- change one of types of arguments at prepare_elf64_headers()
Those, unfortunately, require a couple of trivial changes on the rest
(#1, #6 to #13) of my arm64 kexec_file patch set[1].
Patch #1 allows making a use of purgatory optional, particularly useful
for arm64.
Patch #2 commonalizes arch_kexec_kernel_{image_probe, image_load,
verify_sig}() and arch_kimage_file_post_load_cleanup() across
architectures.
Patches #3-#7 are also intended to generalize parse_elf64_headers(),
along with exclude_mem_range(), to be made best re-use of.

This patch (of 7):
On arm64, crash dump kernel's usable memory is protected by *unmapping*
it from kernel virtual space unlike other architectures where the region
is just made read-only. It is highly unlikely that the region is
accidentally corrupted and this observation rationalizes that digest
check code can also be dropped from purgatory. The resulting code is so
simple as it doesn't require a bit ugly re-linking/relocation stuff,
i.e. arch_kexec_apply_relocations_add().
Please see:
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2017-December/545428.html
All that the purgatory does is to shuffle arguments and jump into a new
kernel, while we still need to have some space for a hash value
(purgatory_sha256_digest) which is never checked against.
As such, it doesn't make sense to have trampline code between old kernel
and new kernel on arm64.
This patch introduces a new configuration, ARCH_HAS_KEXEC_PURGATORY, and
allows related code to be compiled in only if necessary.

Since commit 6326fec112 ("mm: Use owner_priv bit for PageSwapCache,
valid when PageSwapBacked"), PG_swapcache is an alias for
PG_owner_priv_1, which may be also used for other purposes.
To know whether the bit indeed has the PG_swapcache meaning, it is
necessary to check PG_swapbacked, hence this bit must be exported.

We've got a bug report indicating a kernel panic at booting on an x86-32
system, and it turned out to be the invalid PCI resource assigned after
reallocation. __find_resource() first aligns the resource start address
and resets the end address with start+size-1 accordingly, then checks
whether it's contained. Here the end address may overflow the integer,
although resource_contains() still returns true because the function
validates only start and end address. So this ends up with returning an
invalid resource (start > end).
There was already an attempt to cover such a problem in the commit
47ea91b405 ("Resource: fix wrong resource window calculation"), but
this case is an overseen one.
This patch adds the validity check of the newly calculated resource for
avoiding the integer overflow problem.

This results in no change in structure size on 64-bit machines as it
fits in the padding between the gfp_t and the void *. 32-bit machines
will grow the structure from 8 to 12 bytes. Almost all radix trees are
protected with (at least) a spinlock, so as they are converted from
radix trees to xarrays, the data structures will shrink again.
Initialising the spinlock requires a name for the benefit of lockdep, so
RADIX_TREE_INIT() now needs to know the name of the radix tree it's
initialising, and so do IDR_INIT() and IDA_INIT().
Also add the xa_lock() and xa_unlock() family of wrappers to make it
easier to use the lock. If we could rely on -fplan9-extensions in the
compiler, we could avoid all of this syntactic sugar, but that wasn't
added until gcc 4.6.

As using an unsafe module parameter is, by its very definition, an
expected user action, emitting a warning is overkill. Nothing has yet
gone wrong, and we add a taint flag for any future oops should something
actually go wrong. So instead of having a user controllable pr_warn,
downgrade it to a pr_notice for "a normal, but significant condition".
We make use of unsafe kernel parameters in igt
(https://cgit.freedesktop.org/drm/igt-gpu-tools/) (we have not yet
succeeded in removing all such debugging options), which generates a
warning and taints the kernel. The warning is unhelpful as we then need
to filter it out again as we check that every test themselves do not
provoke any kernel warnings.

There's some inconsistency with what to set the output parameter filterp
when passing to create_filter(..., struct event_filter **filterp).
Whatever filterp points to, should be NULL when calling this function. The
create_filter() calls create_filter_start() with a pointer to a local
"filter" variable that is set to NULL. The create_filter_start() has a
WARN_ON() if the passed in pointer isn't pointing to a value set to NULL.
Ideally, create_filter() should pass the filterp variable it received to
create_filter_start() and not hide it as with a local variable, this allowed
create_filter() to fail, and not update the passed in filter, and the caller
of create_filter() then tried to free filter, which was never initialized to
anything, causing memory corruption.

$ echo 1 > events/uprobes/true_entry/enable
This returns 'bash: echo: write error: Input/output error' and dmesg
tells us 'event trace: Could not enable event true_entry'
This change makes create_trace_uprobe() look for the real inode of a
dentry. In the case of normal filesystems, this simplifies to just
returning the inode. In the case of overlayfs(and similar fs) we will
obtain the underlying dentry and corresponding inode, upon which uprobes
can successfully register.
Running the example above with the patch applied, we can see that the
uprobe is enabled and will output to trace as expected.

*** DEADLOCK ***
======================================================
The bug is introduced by Commit f371b304f1 ("bpf/tracing: allow
user space to query prog array on the same tp") where copy_to_user,
which requires mm->mmap_sem, is called inside bpf_event_mutex lock.
At the same time, during perf_event file descriptor close,
mm->mmap_sem is held first and then subsequent
perf_event_detach_bpf_prog needs bpf_event_mutex lock.
Such a senario caused a deadlock.
As suggested by Daniel, moving copy_to_user out of the
bpf_event_mutex lock should fix the problem.

This introduces a temporary variable to track the flags so gcc
doesn't have to evaluate twice, eliminating the code path that
leads to the warning.

If the tick isn't stopped, the target residency of the state selected
by the menu governor may be greater than the actual time to the next
tick and that means lost energy.
To avoid that, make tick_nohz_get_sleep_length() return the current
time to the next event (before stopping the tick) in addition to the
estimated one via an extra pointer argument and make menu_select()
use that value to refine the state selection when necessary.

In order to address the issue with short idle duration predictions
by the idle governor after the scheduler tick has been stopped,
reorder the code in cpuidle_idle_call() so that the governor idle
state selection runs before tick_nohz_idle_go_idle() and use the
"nohz" hint returned by cpuidle_select() to decide whether or not
to stop the tick.
This isn't straightforward, because menu_select() invokes
tick_nohz_get_sleep_length() to get the time to the next timer
event and the number returned by the latter comes from
__tick_nohz_idle_stop_tick(). Fortunately, however, it is possible
to compute that number without actually stopping the tick and with
the help of the existing code.
Namely, tick_nohz_get_sleep_length() can be made call
tick_nohz_next_event(), introduced earlier, to get the time to the
next non-highres timer event. If that happens, tick_nohz_next_event()
need not be called by __tick_nohz_idle_stop_tick() again.
If it turns out that the scheduler tick cannot be stopped going
forward or the next timer event is too close for the tick to be
stopped, tick_nohz_get_sleep_length() can simply return the time to
the next event currently programmed into the corresponding clock
event device.
In addition to knowing the return value of tick_nohz_next_event(),
however, tick_nohz_get_sleep_length() needs to know the time to the
next highres timer event, but with the scheduler tick timer excluded,
which can be computed with the help of hrtimer_get_next_event().
That minimum of that number and the tick_nohz_next_event() return
value is the total time to the next timer event with the assumption
that the tick will be stopped. It can be returned to the idle
governor which can use it for predicting idle duration (under the
assumption that the tick will be stopped) and deciding whether or
not it makes sense to stop the tick before putting the CPU into the
selected idle state.
With the above, the sleep_length field in struct tick_sched is not
necessary any more, so drop it.

The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net* tree.
The main changes are:
1) Two sockmap fixes: i) fix a potential warning when a socket with
pending cork data is closed by freeing the memory right when the
socket is closed instead of seeing still outstanding memory at
garbage collector time, ii) fix a NULL pointer deref in case of
duplicates release calls, so make sure to only reset the sk_prot

To that end introduce a new helper function,

In order to address the issue with short idle duration predictions
by the idle governor after the scheduler tick has been stopped, split
tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() into two separate routines, one computing
the time to the next timer event and the other simply stopping the
tick when the time to the next timer event is known.
Prepare these two routines to be called separately, as one of them
will be called by the idle governor in the cpuidle_select() code
path after subsequent changes.
Update the former callers of tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() to use
the new routines, tick_nohz_next_event() and tick_nohz_stop_tick(),
instead of it and move the updates of the sleep_length field in
struct tick_sched into __tick_nohz_idle_stop_tick() as it doesn't
need to be updated anywhere else.
There should be no intentional visible changes in functionality
resulting from this change.

Pull audit updates from Paul Moore:
"We didn't have anything to send for v4.16, but we're back with a
little more than usual for v4.17.
Eleven patches in total, most fall into the small fix category, but
there are three non-trivial changes worth calling out:
- the audit entry filter is being removed after deprecating it for
quite a while (years of no one really using it because it turns out
to be not very practical)
- created our own version of "__mutex_owner()" because the locking
folks were upset we were using theirs
- improved our handling of kernel command line parameters to make
them more forgiving
- we fixed auditing of symlink operations
Everything passes the audit-testsuite and as of a few minutes ago it
merges well with your tree"

Function tracing can trace in NMIs and such. If the TSC is determined
to be unstable, the tracing clock will switch to the global clock on
boot up, unless "trace_clock" is specified on the kernel command line.
The global clock disables interrupts to access sched_clock_cpu(), and in
doing so can be done within lockdep internals (because of function
tracing and NMIs). This can trigger false lockdep splats.
The trace_clock_global() is special, best not to trace the irq logic
within it.

As si_mem_available() can say there is enough memory even though the memory
available is not useable by the ring buffer, it is best to not kill innocent
applications because the ring buffer is taking up all the memory while it is
trying to allocate a great deal of memory.
If the allocator is user space (because kernel threads can also increase the
size of the kernel ring buffer on boot up), then after si_mem_available()
says there is enough memory, set the OOM killer to kill the current task if
an OOM triggers during the allocation.

The ring buffer is made up of a link list of pages. When making the ring
buffer bigger, it will allocate all the pages it needs before adding to the
ring buffer, and if it fails, it frees them and returns an error. This makes
increasing the ring buffer size an all or nothing action. When this was
first created, the pages were allocated with "NORETRY". This was to not
cause any Out-Of-Memory (OOM) actions from allocating the ring buffer. But
NORETRY was too strict, as the ring buffer would fail to expand even when
there's memory available, but was taken up in the page cache.
Commit 848618857d ("tracing/ring_buffer: Try harder to allocate") changed
the allocating from NORETRY to RETRY_MAYFAIL. The RETRY_MAYFAIL would
allocate from the page cache, but if there was no memory available, it would
simple fail the allocation and not trigger an OOM.
This worked fine, but had one problem. As the ring buffer would allocate one
page at a time, it could take up all memory in the system before it failed
to allocate and free that memory. If the allocation is happening and the
ring buffer allocates all memory and then tries to take more than available,
its allocation will not trigger an OOM, but if there's any allocation that
happens someplace else, that could trigger an OOM, even though once the ring
buffer's allocation fails, it would free up all the previous memory it tried
to allocate, and allow other memory allocations to succeed.
Commit d02bd27bd3 ("mm/page_alloc.c: calculate 'available' memory in a
separate function") separated out si_mem_availble() as a separate function
that could be used to see how much memory is available in the system. Using
this function to make sure that the ring buffer could be allocated before it
tries to allocate pages we can avoid allocating all memory in the system and
making it vulnerable to OOMs if other allocations are taking place.

Actions also need to be considered when checking for matching triggers
- triggers differing only by action should be allowed, but currently
aren't because the matching check ignores the action and erroneously
returns -EEXIST.
Add and call an actions_match() function to address that.
Here's an example using onmatch() actions. The first -EEXIST shouldn't
occur because the onmatch() is different in the second wakeup_latency()
param. The second -EEXIST shouldn't occur because it's a different
action (in this case, it doesn't have an action, so shouldn't be seen
as being the same and therefore rejected).
In the after case, both are correctly accepted (and trying to add one of
them again returns -EEXIST as it should).

Across suspend, we may see a very large drift in timestamps if the sched

and suggest switching to the global clock. Preempt this request by
detecting when the sched clock is unstable (determined during
late_initcall) and automatically switching the default clock over to
trace_global_clock.
This should prevent requiring user interaction to resolve warnings such
as:

Commit 84676c1f21 ("genirq/affinity: assign vectors to all possible CPUs")
tried to spread the interrupts accross all possible CPUs to make sure that
in case of phsyical hotplug (e.g. virtualization) the CPUs which get
plugged in after the device was initialized are targeted by a hardware
queue and the corresponding interrupt.
This has a downside in cases where the ACPI tables claim that there are
more possible CPUs than present CPUs and the number of interrupts to spread
out is smaller than the number of possible CPUs. These bogus ACPI tables
are unfortunately not uncommon.
In such a case the vector spreading algorithm assigns interrupts to CPUs
which can never be utilized and as a consequence these interrupts are
unused instead of being mapped to present CPUs. As a result the performance
of the device is suboptimal.
To fix this spread the interrupt vectors in two stages:
1) Spread as many interrupts as possible among the present CPUs
2) Spread the remaining vectors among non present CPUs
On a 8 core system, where CPU 0-3 are present and CPU 4-7 are not present,
for a device with 4 queues the resulting interrupt affinity is:
1) Before 84676c1f21 ("genirq/affinity: assign vectors to all possible CPUs")
irq 39, cpu list 0
irq 40, cpu list 1
irq 41, cpu list 2
irq 42, cpu list 3
2) With 84676c1f21 ("genirq/affinity: assign vectors to all possible CPUs")
irq 39, cpu list 0-2
irq 40, cpu list 3-4,6
irq 41, cpu list 5
irq 42, cpu list 7
3) With the refined vector spread applied:
irq 39, cpu list 0,4
irq 40, cpu list 1,6
irq 41, cpu list 2,5
irq 42, cpu list 3,7
On a 8 core system, where all CPUs are present the resulting interrupt
affinity for the 4 queues is:
irq 39, cpu list 0,1
irq 40, cpu list 2,3
irq 41, cpu list 4,5
irq 42, cpu list 6,7
This is independent of the number of CPUs which are online at the point of
initialization because in such a system the offline CPUs can be easily
onlined afterwards, while in non-present CPUs need to be plugged physically
or virtually which requires external interaction.
The downside of this approach is that in case of physical hotplug the
interrupt vector spreading might be suboptimal when CPUs 4-7 are physically
plugged. Suboptimal from a NUMA point of view and due to the single target
nature of interrupt affinities the later plugged CPUs might not be targeted
by interrupts at all.
Though, physical hotplug systems are not the common case while the broken
ACPI table disease is wide spread. So it's preferred to have as many
interrupts as possible utilized at the point where the device is
initialized.
Block multi-queue devices like NVME create a hardware queue per possible
CPU, so the goal of commit 84676c1f21 to assign one interrupt vector per
possible CPU is still achieved even with physical/virtual hotplug.

Add a new pointer argument to cpuidle_select() and to the ->select
cpuidle governor callback to allow a boolean value indicating
whether or not the tick should be stopped before entering the
selected state to be returned from there.
Make the ladder governor ignore that pointer (to preserve its
current behavior) and make the menu governor return 'false" through
it if:
(1) the idle exit latency is constrained at 0, or
(2) the selected state is a polling one, or
(3) the expected idle period duration is within the tick period
range.
In addition to that, the correction factor computations in the menu
governor need to take the possibility that the tick may not be
stopped into account to avoid artificially small correction factor
values. To that end, add a mechanism to record tick wakeups, as
suggested by Peter Zijlstra, and use it to modify the menu_update()
behavior when tick wakeup occurs. Namely, if the CPU is woken up by
the tick and the return value of tick_nohz_get_sleep_length() is not
within the tick boundary, the predicted idle duration is likely too
short, so make menu_update() try to compensate for that by updating
the governor statistics as though the CPU was idle for a long time.
Since the value returned through the new argument pointer of
cpuidle_select() is not used by its caller yet, this change by
itself is not expected to alter the functionality of the code.

Let's have __mmdrop() verify that the mm isn't live for the current
task, similar to the existing check for init_mm. This way, we can catch
this class of issue earlier, and without requiring KASAN.
Currently, idle_task_exit() leaves active_mm stale after it switches to
init_mm. This isn't harmful, but will trigger the new assertions, so we
must adjust idle_task_exit() to update active_mm.

Make cpuidle_idle_call() decide whether or not to stop the tick.
First, the cpuidle_enter_s2idle() path deals with the tick (and with
the entire timekeeping for that matter) by itself and it doesn't need
the tick to be stopped beforehand.
Second, to address the issue with short idle duration predictions
by the idle governor after the tick has been stopped, it will be
necessary to change the ordering of cpuidle_select() with respect
to tick_nohz_idle_stop_tick(). To prepare for that, put a
tick_nohz_idle_stop_tick() call in the same branch in which
cpuidle_select() is called.

Push the decision whether or not to stop the tick somewhat deeper
into the idle loop.
Stopping the tick upfront leads to unpleasant outcomes in case the
idle governor doesn't agree with the nohz code on the duration of the
upcoming idle period. Specifically, if the tick has been stopped and
the idle governor predicts short idle, the situation is bad regardless
of whether or not the prediction is accurate. If it is accurate, the
tick has been stopped unnecessarily which means excessive overhead.
If it is not accurate, the CPU is likely to spend too much time in
the (shallow, because short idle has been predicted) idle state
selected by the governor [1].
As the first step towards addressing this problem, change the code
to make the tick stopping decision inside of the loop in do_idle().
In particular, do not stop the tick in the cpu_idle_poll() code path.
Also don't do that in tick_nohz_irq_exit() which doesn't really have
enough information on whether or not to stop the tick.

Prepare the scheduler tick code for reworking the idle loop to
avoid stopping the tick in some cases.
The idea is to split the nohz idle entry call to decouple the idle
time stats accounting and preparatory work from the actual tick stop
code, in order to later be able to delay the tick stop once we reach
more power-knowledgeable callers.
Move away the tick_nohz_start_idle() invocation from
__tick_nohz_idle_enter(), rename the latter to
__tick_nohz_idle_stop_tick() and define tick_nohz_idle_stop_tick()
as a wrapper around it for calling it from the outside.
Make tick_nohz_idle_enter() only call tick_nohz_start_idle() instead
of calling the entire __tick_nohz_idle_enter(), add another wrapper
disabling and enabling interrupts around tick_nohz_idle_stop_tick()
and make the current callers of tick_nohz_idle_enter() call it too
to retain their current functionality.

It may be useful for an architecture to override the definitions of the
COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE0() and __COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINEx() macros in
<linux/compat.h>, in particular to use a different calling convention
for syscalls. This patch provides a mechanism to do so, based on the
previously introduced CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_SYSCALL_WRAPPER. If it is enabled,
<asm/sycall_wrapper.h> is included in <linux/compat.h> and may be used
to define the macros mentioned above. Moreover, as the syscall calling
convention may be different if CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_SYSCALL_WRAPPER is set,
the compat syscall function prototypes in <linux/compat.h> are #ifndef'd
out in that case.
As some of the syscalls and/or compat syscalls may not be present,
the COND_SYSCALL() and COND_SYSCALL_COMPAT() macros in kernel/sys_ni.c
as well as the SYS_NI() and COMPAT_SYS_NI() macros in
kernel/time/posix-stubs.c can be re-defined in <asm/syscall_wrapper.h> iff
CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_SYSCALL_WRAPPER is enabled.

The case for the RT task throttling (which this workload also hits)
can be ignored in that the skip_update call is actually bogus and
quite the contrary (the request bits are removed/reverted).
By setting RQCF_UPDATED we really don't care if the skip is happening

Pull namespace updates from Eric Biederman:
"There was a lot of work this cycle fixing bugs that were discovered
after the merge window and getting everything ready where we can
reasonably support fully unprivileged fuse. The bug fixes you already
have and much of the unprivileged fuse work is coming in via other
trees.
Still left for fully unprivileged fuse is figuring out how to cleanly
handle .set_acl and .get_acl in the legacy case, and properly handling
of evm xattrs on unprivileged mounts.
Included in the tree is a cleanup from Alexely that replaced a linked
list with a statically allocated fix sized array for the pid caches,
which simplifies and speeds things up.
Then there is are some cleanups and fixes for the ipc namespace. The
motivation was that in reviewing other code it was discovered that
access ipc objects from different pid namespaces recorded pids in such
a way that when asked the wrong pids were returned. In the worst case
there has been a measured 30% performance impact for sysvipc
semaphores. Other test cases showed no measurable performance impact.
Manfred Spraul and Davidlohr Bueso who tend to work on sysvipc
performance both gave the nod that this is good enough.
Casey Schaufler and James Morris have given their approval to the LSM
side of the changes.
I simplified the types and the code dealing with sysvipc to pass just
kern_ipc_perm for all three types of ipc. Which reduced the header
dependencies throughout the kernel and simplified the lsm code.
Which let me work on the pid fixes without having to worry about
trivial changes causing complete kernel recompiles"

Pull removal of in-kernel calls to syscalls from Dominik Brodowski:
"System calls are interaction points between userspace and the kernel.
Therefore, system call functions such as sys_xyzzy() or
compat_sys_xyzzy() should only be called from userspace via the
syscall table, but not from elsewhere in the kernel.
At least on 64-bit x86, it will likely be a hard requirement from
v4.17 onwards to not call system call functions in the kernel: It is
better to use use a different calling convention for system calls
there, where struct pt_regs is decoded on-the-fly in a syscall wrapper
which then hands processing over to the actual syscall function. This
means that only those parameters which are actually needed for a
specific syscall are passed on during syscall entry, instead of
filling in six CPU registers with random user space content all the
time (which may cause serious trouble down the call chain). Those
x86-specific patches will be pushed through the x86 tree in the near
future.
Moreover, rules on how data may be accessed may differ between kernel
data and user data. This is another reason why calling sys_xyzzy() is
generally a bad idea, and -- at most -- acceptable in arch-specific
code.
This patchset removes all in-kernel calls to syscall functions in the
kernel with the exception of arch/. On top of this, it cleans up the
three places where many syscalls are referenced or prototyped, namely
kernel/sys_ni.c, include/linux/syscalls.h and include/linux/compat.h"

This removes the entire architecture code for blackfin, cris, frv, m32r,
metag, mn10300, score, and tile, including the associated device drivers.
I have been working with the (former) maintainers for each one to ensure
that my interpretation was right and the code is definitely unused in
mainline kernels. Many had fond memories of working on the respective
ports to start with and getting them included in upstream, but also saw
no point in keeping the port alive without any users.
In the end, it seems that while the eight architectures are extremely
different, they all suffered the same fate: There was one company
in charge of an SoC line, a CPU microarchitecture and a software
ecosystem, which was more costly than licensing newer off-the-shelf
CPU cores from a third party (typically ARM, MIPS, or RISC-V). It seems
that all the SoC product lines are still around, but have not used the
custom CPU architectures for several years at this point. In contrast,
CPU instruction sets that remain popular and have actively maintained
kernel ports tend to all be used across multiple licensees.
The removal came out of a discussion that is now documented at
https://lwn.net/Articles/748074/. Unlike the original plans, I'm not
marking any ports as deprecated but remove them all at once after I made
sure that they are all unused. Some architectures (notably tile, mn10300,
and blackfin) are still being shipped in products with old kernels,
but those products will never be updated to newer kernel releases.
After this series, we still have a few architectures without mainline
gcc support:
- unicore32 and hexagon both have very outdated gcc releases, but the
maintainers promised to work on providing something newer. At least
in case of hexagon, this will only be llvm, not gcc.
- openrisc, risc-v and nds32 are still in the process of finishing their
support or getting it added to mainline gcc in the first place.
They all have patched gcc-7.3 ports that work to some degree, but
complete upstream support won't happen before gcc-8.1. Csky posted
their first kernel patch set last week, their situation will be similar.
