885e542ce8 sched/fair: Fix comment in calculate_imbalance()
The comment in calculate_imbalance() was introduced in commit:

 2dd73a4f09be ("[PATCH] sched: implement smpnice")

which described the logic as it was then, but a later commit:

  b18855500fc4 ("sched/balancing: Fix 'local->avg_load > sds->avg_load' case in calculate_imbalance()")

.. complicated this logic some more so that the comment does not match anymore.

Update the comment to match the code.

b52fad2db5 sched/fair: Update rq clock before updating nohz CPU load
If we're accessing rq_clock() (e.g. in sched_avg_update()) we should
update the rq clock before calling cpu_load_update(), otherwise any
time calculations will be stale.

All other paths currently call update_rq_clock().

The max_idle_balance_cost and avg_idle values which are tracked and ar used to
capture short idle incidents, are not associated with schedstats, however the

172895e6b5 sched/fair: Rename SCHED_LOAD_SHIFT to NICE_0_LOAD_SHIFT and remove SCHED_LOAD_SCALE
After cleaning up the sched metrics, there are two definitions that are
ambiguous and confusing: SCHED_LOAD_SHIFT and SCHED_LOAD_SHIFT.

Resolve this:

 - Rename SCHED_LOAD_SHIFT to NICE_0_LOAD_SHIFT, which better reflects what
   it is.

 - Replace SCHED_LOAD_SCALE use with SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE and remove SCHED_LOAD_SCALE.

6ecdd74962 sched/fair: Generalize the load/util averages resolution definition
Integer metric needs fixed point arithmetic. In sched/fair, a few
metrics, e.g., weight, load, load_avg, util_avg, freq, and capacity,
may have different fixed point ranges, which makes their update and
usage error-prone.

In order to avoid the errors relating to the fixed point range, we
definie a basic fixed point range, and then formalize all metrics to
base on the basic range.

The basic range is 1024 or (1 << 10). Further, one can recursively
apply the basic range to have larger range.

Pointed out by Ben Segall, weight (visible to user, e.g., NICE-0 has
1024) and load (e.g., NICE_0_LOAD) have independent ranges, but they
must be well calibrated.

e7904a28f5 locking/lockdep, sched/core: Implement a better lock pinning scheme
The problem with the existing lock pinning is that each pin is of
value 1; this mean you can simply unpin if you know its pinned,
without having any extra information.

This scheme generates a random (16 bit) cookie for each pin and
requires this same cookie to unpin. This means you have to keep the
cookie in context.

No objsize difference for !LOCKDEP kernels.

0fc1b09ff1 tracing: Use temp buffer when filtering events
Filtering of events requires the data to be written to the ring buffer
before it can be decided to filter or not. This is because the parameters of
the filter are based on the result that is written to the ring buffer and
not on the parameters that are passed into the trace functions.

The ftrace ring buffer is optimized for writing into the ring buffer and
committing. The discard procedure used when filtering decides the event
should be discarded is much more heavy weight. Thus, using a temporary
filter when filtering events can speed things up drastically.

Without a temp buffer we have:

 # trace-cmd start -p nop
 # perf stat -r 10 hackbench 50
       0.790706626 seconds time elapsed ( +-  0.71% )

 # trace-cmd start -e all
 # perf stat -r 10 hackbench 50
       1.566904059 seconds time elapsed ( +-  0.27% )

 # trace-cmd start -e all -f 'common_preempt_count==20'
 # perf stat -r 10 hackbench 50
       1.690598511 seconds time elapsed ( +-  0.19% )

 # trace-cmd start -e all -f 'common_preempt_count!=20'
 # perf stat -r 10 hackbench 50
       1.707486364 seconds time elapsed ( +-  0.30% )

The first run above is without any tracing, just to get a based figure.
hackbench takes ~0.79 seconds to run on the system.

The second run enables tracing all events where nothing is filtered. This
increases the time by 100% and hackbench takes 1.57 seconds to run.

The third run filters all events where the preempt count will equal "20"
(this should never happen) thus all events are discarded. This takes 1.69
seconds to run. This is 10% slower than just committing the events!

The last run enables all events and filters where the filter will commit all
events, and this takes 1.70 seconds to run. The filtering overhead is
approximately 10%. Thus, the discard and commit of an event from the ring
buffer may be about the same time.

With this patch, the numbers change:

 # trace-cmd start -p nop
 # perf stat -r 10 hackbench 50
       0.778233033 seconds time elapsed ( +-  0.38% )

 # trace-cmd start -e all
 # perf stat -r 10 hackbench 50
       1.582102692 seconds time elapsed ( +-  0.28% )

 # trace-cmd start -e all -f 'common_preempt_count==20'
 # perf stat -r 10 hackbench 50
       1.309230710 seconds time elapsed ( +-  0.22% )

 # trace-cmd start -e all -f 'common_preempt_count!=20'
 # perf stat -r 10 hackbench 50
       1.786001924 seconds time elapsed ( +-  0.20% )

The first run is again the base with no tracing.

The second run is all tracing with no filtering. It is a little slower, but
that may be well within the noise.

The third run shows that discarding all events only took 1.3 seconds. This
is a speed up of 23%! The discard is much faster than even the commit.

The one downside is shown in the last run. Events that are not discarded by
the filter will take longer to add, this is due to the extra copy of the
event.

854145e0a8 tracing: Don't display trigger file for events that can't be enabled
Currently register functions for events will be called
through the 'reg' field of event class directly without
any check when seting up triggers.

Triggers for events that don't support register through
debug fs (events under events/ftrace are for trace-cmd to
read event format, and most of them don't have a register
function except events/ftrace/functionx) can't be enabled
at all, and an oops will be hit when setting up trigger
for those events, so just not creating them is an easy way
to avoid the oops.

2a74213838 signals/sigaltstack: Implement SS_AUTODISARM flag
This patch implements the SS_AUTODISARM flag that can be OR-ed with
SS_ONSTACK when forming ss_flags.

When this flag is set, sigaltstack will be disabled when entering
the signal handler; more precisely, after saving sas to uc_stack.
When leaving the signal handler, the sigaltstack is restored by
uc_stack.

When this flag is used, it is safe to switch from sighandler with
swapcontext(). Without this flag, the subsequent signal will corrupt
the state of the switched-away sighandler.

To detect the support of this functionality, one can do:

  err = sigaltstack(SS_DISABLE | SS_AUTODISARM);
  if (err && errno == EINVAL)
	unsupported();

407bc16ad1 signals/sigaltstack: Prepare to add new SS_xxx flags
This patch adds SS_FLAG_BITS - the mask that splits sigaltstack
mode values and bit-flags. Since there is no bit-flags yet, the
mask is defined to 0. The flags are added by subsequent patches.
With every new flag, the mask should have the appropriate bit cleared.

This makes sure if some flag is tried on a kernel that doesn't
support it, the -EINVAL error will be returned, because such a
flag will be treated as an invalid mode rather than the bit-flag.

That way the existence of the particular features can be probed
at run-time.

This change was suggested by Andy Lutomirski:

222df54fd8 genirq: Allow the affinity of a percpu interrupt to be set/retrieved
In order to prepare the genirq layer for the concept of partitionned
percpu interrupts, let's allow an affinity to be associated with
such an interrupt. We introduce:

- irq_set_percpu_devid_partition: flag an interrupt as a percpu-devid
  interrupt, and associate it with an affinity
- irq_get_percpu_devid_partition: allow the affinity of that interrupt
  to be retrieved.

This will allow a driver to discover which CPUs the per-cpu interrupt
can actually fire on.

651e8b54ab irqdomain: Allow domain matching on irq_fwspec
When iterating over the irq domain list, we try to match a domain
either by calling a match() function or by comparing a number
of fields passed as parameters.

Both approaches are a bit restrictive:
- match() is DT specific and only takes a device node
- the fallback case only deals with the fwnode_handle

It would be useful if we had a per-domain function that would
actually perform the matching check on the whole of the
irq_fwspec structure. This would allow for a domain to triage
matching attempts that need to extend beyond the fwnode.

Let's introduce irq_find_matching_fwspec(), which takes a full
blown irq_fwspec structure, and call into a select() function
implemented by the irqdomain. irq_find_matching_fwnode() is
made a wrapper around irq_find_matching_fwspec in order to
preserve compatibility.

7cec18a390 genirq: Add error code reporting to irq_{reserve,destroy}_ipi
Make these functions return appropriate error codes when something goes
wrong.

Previously irq_destroy_ipi returned void making it impossible to notify
the caller if the request could not be fulfilled. Patch 1 in the series
added another condition in which this could fail in addition to the
existing ones. irq_reserve_ipi returned an unsigned int meaning it could
only return 0 on failure and give the caller no indication as to why the
request failed.

As time goes on there are likely to be further conditions added in which
these functions can fail. These APIs and the IPI IRQ domain are new in
4.6 and the number of existing call sites are low, changing the API now
has little impact on the code, while making it easier for these
functions to grow over time.

01292cea0d genirq: Make irq_destroy_ipi take a cpumask of IPIs to destroy
Previously irq_destroy_ipi() would destroy IPIs to all CPUs that were
configured by irq_reserve_ipi(). This change makes it possible to
destroy just a subset of the IPIs. This may be useful to remove IPIs to
CPUs that have been hot removed so that the IRQ numbers allocated within
the IPI domain can be re-used.

The original behaviour is restored by passing the complete mask that the
IPI was created with.

There are currently no users of this function that would break from the
API change.

f09d90864e livepatch: make object/func-walking helpers more robust
Current object-walking helper checks the presence of obj->funcs to
determine the end of objs array in klp_object structure. This is
somewhat fragile because one can easily forget about funcs definition
during livepatch creation. In such a case the livepatch module is
successfully loaded and all objects after the incorrect one are omitted.
This is very confusing. Let's make the helper more robust and check also
for the other external member, name. Thus the helper correctly stops on
an empty item of the array. We need to have a check for obj->funcs in
klp_init_object() to make it work.

The same applies to a func-walking helper.

As a benefit we'll check for new_func member definition during the
livepatch initialization. There is no such check anywhere in the code
now.

d7f53518f7 kexec: export OFFSET(page.compound_head) to find out compound tail page
PageAnon() always look at head page to check PAGE_MAPPING_ANON and tail
page's page->mapping has just a poisoned data since commit 1c290f642101
("mm: sanitize page->mapping for tail pages").

If makedumpfile checks page->mapping of a compound tail page to
distinguish anonymous page as usual, it must fail in newer kernel.  So
it's necessary to export OFFSET(page.compound_head) to avoid checking
compound tail pages.

The problem is that unnecessary hugepages won't be removed from a dump
file in kernels 4.5.x and later.  This means that extra disk space would
be consumed.  It's a problem, but not critical.

8639a847b0 kexec: update VMCOREINFO for compound_order/dtor
makedumpfile refers page.lru.next to get the order of compound pages for
page filtering.

However, now the order is stored in page.compound_order, hence
VMCOREINFO should be updated to export the offset of
page.compound_order.

The fact is, page.compound_order was introduced already in kernel 4.0,
but the offset of it was the same as page.lru.next until kernel 4.3, so
this was not actual problem.

The above can be said also for page.lru.prev and page.compound_dtor,
it's necessary to detect hugetlbfs pages.  Further, the content was
changed from direct address to the ID which means dtor.

The problem is that unnecessary hugepages won't be removed from a dump
file in kernels 4.4.x and later.  This means that extra disk space would
be consumed.  It's a problem, but not critical.

f6cf0545ec PM / Hibernate: Call flush_icache_range() on pages restored in-place
Some architectures require code written to memory as if it were data to be
'cleaned' from any data caches before the processor can fetch them as new
instructions.

During resume from hibernate, the snapshot code copies some pages directly,
meaning these architectures do not get a chance to perform their cache
maintenance. Modify the read and decompress code to call
flush_icache_range() on all pages that are restored, so that the restored
in-place pages are guaranteed to be executable on these architectures.

594dd290cf sched/cpufreq: Optimize cpufreq update kicker to avoid update multiple times
Sometimes delta_exec is 0 due to update_curr() is called multiple times,
this is captured by:

	u64 delta_exec = rq_clock_task(rq) - curr->se.exec_start;

This patch optimizes the cpufreq update kicker by bailing out when nothing
changed, it will benefit the upcoming schedutil, since otherwise it will
(over)react to the special util/max combination.

79c9ce57eb perf/core: Fix perf_event_open() vs. execve() race
Jann reported that the ptrace_may_access() check in
find_lively_task_by_vpid() is racy against exec().

Specifically:

  perf_event_open()		execve()

  ptrace_may_access()
				commit_creds()
  ...				if (get_dumpable() != SUID_DUMP_USER)
				  perf_event_exit_task();
  perf_install_in_context()

would result in installing a counter across the creds boundary.

Fix this by wrapping lots of perf_event_open() in cred_guard_mutex.
This should be fine as perf_event_exit_task() is already called with
cred_guard_mutex held, so all perf locks already nest inside it.
