commit 6ae9200f2c ("enlarge console.name") increased the storage
for the console name to 16 bytes, but not the corresponding
struct console_cmdline::name storage. Console names longer than
8 bytes cause read beyond end-of-string and failure to match
console; I'm not sure if there are other unexpected consequences.

* suspend-to-idle:
cpuidle / sleep: Use broadcast timer for states that stop local timer
cpuidle: Clean up fallback handling in cpuidle_idle_call()
cpuidle / sleep: Do sanity checks in cpuidle_enter_freeze() too
idle / sleep: Avoid excessive disabling and enabling interrupts
Commit 3810631332 (PM / sleep: Re-implement suspend-to-idle handling)
overlooked the fact that entering some sufficiently deep idle states
by CPUs may cause their local timers to stop and in those cases it
is necessary to switch over to a broadcast timer prior to entering
the idle state. If the cpuidle driver in use does not provide
the new ->enter_freeze callback for any of the idle states, that
problem affects suspend-to-idle too, but it is not taken into account
after the changes made by commit 3810631332.
Fix that by changing the definition of cpuidle_enter_freeze() and
re-arranging of the code in cpuidle_idle_call(), so the former does
not call cpuidle_enter() any more and the fallback case is handled
by cpuidle_idle_call() directly.

Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
cancel[_delayed]_work_sync() are implemented using
__cancel_work_timer() which grabs the PENDING bit using
try_to_grab_pending() and then flushes the work item with PENDING set
to prevent the on-going execution of the work item from requeueing
itself.
try_to_grab_pending() can always grab PENDING bit without blocking
except when someone else is doing the above flushing during
cancelation. In that case, try_to_grab_pending() returns -ENOENT. In
this case, __cancel_work_timer() currently invokes flush_work(). The
assumption is that the completion of the work item is what the other
canceling task would be waiting for too and thus waiting for the same
condition and retrying should allow forward progress without excessive
busy looping
Unfortunately, this doesn't work if preemption is disabled or the
latter task has real time priority. Let's say task A just got woken
up from flush_work() by the completion of the target work item. If,
before task A starts executing, task B gets scheduled and invokes
__cancel_work_timer() on the same work item, its try_to_grab_pending()
will return -ENOENT as the work item is still being canceled by task A
and flush_work() will also immediately return false as the work item
is no longer executing. This puts task B in a busy loop possibly
preventing task A from executing and clearing the canceling state on
the work item leading to a hang.

This patch removes the possible hang by updating __cancel_work_timer()
to explicitly wait for clearing of CANCELING rather than invoking
flush_work() after try_to_grab_pending() fails with -ENOENT.

It currently is required that all users of NO_SUSPEND interrupt
lines pass the IRQF_NO_SUSPEND flag when requesting the IRQ or the
WARN_ON_ONCE() in irq_pm_install_action() will trigger. That is
done to warn about situations in which unprepared interrupt handlers
may be run unnecessarily for suspended devices and may attempt to
access those devices by mistake. However, it may cause drivers
that have no technical reasons for using IRQF_NO_SUSPEND to set
that flag just because they happen to share the interrupt line
with something like a timer.
Moreover, the generic handling of wakeup interrupts introduced by
commit 9ce7a25849 (genirq: Simplify wakeup mechanism) only works
for IRQs without any NO_SUSPEND users, so the drivers of wakeup
devices needing to use shared NO_SUSPEND interrupt lines for
signaling system wakeup generally have to detect wakeup in their
interrupt handlers. Thus if they happen to share an interrupt line
with a NO_SUSPEND user, they also need to request that their
interrupt handlers be run after suspend_device_irqs().
In both cases the reason for using IRQF_NO_SUSPEND is not because
the driver in question has a genuine need to run its interrupt
handler after suspend_device_irqs(), but because it happens to
share the line with some other NO_SUSPEND user. Otherwise, the
driver would do without IRQF_NO_SUSPEND just fine.
To make it possible to specify that condition explicitly, introduce
a new IRQ action handler flag for shared IRQs, IRQF_COND_SUSPEND,
that, when set, will indicate to the IRQ core that the interrupt
user is generally fine with suspending the IRQ, but it also can
tolerate handler invocations after suspend_device_irqs() and, in
particular, it is capable of detecting system wakeup and triggering
it as appropriate from its interrupt handler.
That will allow us to work around a problem with a shared timer
interrupt line on at91 platforms.

default hierarchy is freshly mounted. As a result, some controllers will

enable hierarchy support). Fix this by calling cgroup_subsys->bind right

The cpuset.sched_relax_domain_level can control how far we do
immediate load balancing on a system. However, it was found on recent
kernels that echo'ing a value into cpuset.sched_relax_domain_level
did not reduce any immediate load balancing.
The reason this occurred was because the update_domain_attr_tree() traversal
did not update for the "top_cpuset". This resulted in nothing being changed
when modifying the sched_relax_domain_level parameter.
This patch is able to address that problem by having update_domain_attr_tree()
allow updates for the root in the cpuset traversal.

Pull locking fix from Ingo Molnar:
"An rtmutex deadlock path fixlet"
* 'locking-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
locking/rtmutex: Set state back to running on error
This work extends the "classic" BPF programmable tc classifier by
extending its scope also to native eBPF code!
This allows for user space to implement own custom, 'safe' C like
classifiers (or whatever other frontend language LLVM et al may
provide in future), that can then be compiled with the LLVM eBPF
backend to an eBPF elf file. The result of this can be loaded into
the kernel via iproute2's tc. In the kernel, they can be JITed on
major archs and thus run in native performance.
Simple, minimal toy example to demonstrate the workflow:
#include <linux/ip.h>
#include <linux/if_ether.h>
#include <linux/bpf.h>
#include "tc_bpf_api.h"
__section("classify")
int cls_main(struct sk_buff *skb)
{
return (0x800 << 16) | load_byte(skb, ETH_HLEN + __builtin_offsetof(struct iphdr, tos));
}
char __license[] __section("license") = "GPL";
The classifier can then be compiled into eBPF opcodes and loaded
via tc, for example:
clang -O2 -emit-llvm -c cls.c -o - | llc -march=bpf -filetype=obj -o cls.o
tc filter add dev em1 parent 1: bpf cls.o [...]
As it has been demonstrated, the scope can even reach up to a fully
fledged flow dissector (similarly as in samples/bpf/sockex2_kern.c).
For tc, maps are allowed to be used, but from kernel context only,
in other words, eBPF code can keep state across filter invocations.
In future, we perhaps may reattach from a different application to
those maps e.g., to read out collected statistics/state.
Similarly as in socket filters, we may extend functionality for eBPF
classifiers over time depending on the use cases. For that purpose,
cls_bpf programs are using BPF_PROG_TYPE_SCHED_CLS program type, so
we can allow additional functions/accessors (e.g. an ABI compatible
offset translation to skb fields/metadata). For an initial cls_bpf
support, we allow the same set of helper functions as eBPF socket
filters, but we could diverge at some point in time w/o problem.
I was wondering whether cls_bpf and act_bpf could share C programs,
I can imagine that at some point, we introduce i) further common
handlers for both (or even beyond their scope), and/or if truly needed
ii) some restricted function space for each of them. Both can be
abstracted easily through struct bpf_verifier_ops in future.
The context of cls_bpf versus act_bpf is slightly different though:
a cls_bpf program will return a specific classid whereas act_bpf a
drop/non-drop return code, latter may also in future mangle skbs.
That said, we can surely have a "classify" and "action" section in
a single object file, or considered mentioned constraint add a
possibility of a shared section.
The workflow for getting native eBPF running from tc [1] is as
follows: for f_bpf, I've added a slightly modified ELF parser code
from Alexei's kernel sample, which reads out the LLVM compiled
object, sets up maps (and dynamically fixes up map fds) if any, and
loads the eBPF instructions all centrally through the bpf syscall.
The resulting fd from the loaded program itself is being passed down
to cls_bpf, which looks up struct bpf_prog from the fd store, and
holds reference, so that it stays available also after tc program
lifetime. On tc filter destruction, it will then drop its reference.
Moreover, I've also added the optional possibility to annotate an
eBPF filter with a name (e.g. path to object file, or something
else if preferred) so that when tc dumps currently installed filters,
some more context can be given to an admin for a given instance (as
opposed to just the file descriptor number).
Last but not least, bpf_prog_get() and bpf_prog_put() needed to be
exported, so that eBPF can be used from cls_bpf built as a module.
Thanks to 60a3b2253c ("net: bpf: make eBPF interpreter images
read-only") I think this is of no concern since anything wanting to
alter eBPF opcode after verification stage would crash the kernel.

As discussed recently and at netconf/netdev01, we want to prevent making
bpf_verifier_ops registration available for modules, but have them at a
controlled place inside the kernel instead.
The reason for this is, that out-of-tree modules can go crazy and define
and register any verfifier ops they want, doing all sorts of crap, even
bypassing available GPLed eBPF helper functions. We don't want to offer
such a shiny playground, of course, but keep strict control to ourselves
inside the core kernel.
This also encourages us to design eBPF user helpers carefully and
generically, so they can be shared among various subsystems using eBPF.
For the eBPF traffic classifier (cls_bpf), it's a good start to share
the same helper facilities as we currently do in eBPF for socket filters.
That way, we have BPF_PROG_TYPE_SCHED_CLS look like it's own type, thus
one day if there's a good reason to diverge the set of helper functions
from the set available to socket filters, we keep ABI compatibility.
In future, we could place all bpf_prog_type_list at a central place,
perhaps.

Disabling interrupts at the end of cpuidle_enter_freeze() is not
useful, because its caller, cpuidle_idle_call(), re-enables them
right away after invoking it.
To avoid that unnecessary back and forth dance with interrupts,
make cpuidle_enter_freeze() enable interrupts after calling
enter_freeze_proper() and drop the local_irq_disable() at its
end, so that all of the code paths in it end up with interrupts
enabled. Then, cpuidle_idle_call() will not need to re-enable

the latter will return with interrupts enabled, in analogy with

then rcu_bind_gp_kthread() won't bind it. This kthread might
then migrate before invoking rcu_gp_fqs(), which will trigger the
WARN_ON_ONCE() in rcu_sysidle_check_cpu(). This commit therefore makes
rcu_bind_gp_kthread() do the binding even if the kthread is currently
on the same CPU. Because this incurs added overhead, this commit also
causes each RCU grace-period kthread to invoke rcu_bind_gp_kthread()
once at boot rather than at the beginning of each grace period.
And as long as rcu_bind_gp_kthread() is being modified, this commit
eliminates its #ifdef.

On second and subsequent passes through quiescent-state forcing, the
isidle variable was initialized to false, which would prevent full sysidle
state from being reached if a grace period needed more than one round
of quiescent-state forcing (which most should not). However, the check
for offline CPUs in the quiescent-state forcing main loop had the wrong
sense, which could prevent CPUs from ever entering full sysidle state.
This commit fixes both of these bugs. Given that sysidle is not yet
wired up, this has no effect in old kernels, but might have proven
frustrating had anyone attempted to wire it up.

The "if" statement at the beginning of rcu_torture_writer() should
use the same set of variables. In theory, this does not matter because
the corresponding variables (gp_sync and gp_sync1) have the same value
at this point in the code, but in practice such puzzles should be
removed. This commit therefore makes the use of variables consistent.

This commit adds a CONFIG_RCU_EXPEDITE_BOOT Kconfig parameter
that emulates a very early boot rcu_expedite_gp(). A late-boot
call to rcu_end_inkernel_boot() will provide the corresponding
rcu_unexpedite_gp(). The late-boot call to rcu_end_inkernel_boot()
should be made just before init is spawned.

When CONFIG_PM_DEBUG=y, we provide a sysfs file (/sys/power/pm_test) for
selecting one of a few suspend test modes, where rather than entering a
full suspend state, the kernel will perform some subset of suspend
steps, wait 5 seconds, and then resume back to normal operation.
This mode is useful for (among other things) observing the state of the
system just before entering a sleep mode, for debugging or analysis
purposes. However, a constant 5 second wait is not sufficient for some
sorts of analysis; for example, on an SoC, one might want to use
external tools to probe the power states of various on-chip controllers
or clocks.
This patch turns this 5 second delay into a configurable module
parameter, so users can determine how long to wait in this
pseudo-suspend state before resuming the system.
Example (wait 30 seconds);
# echo 30 > /sys/module/suspend/parameters/pm_test_delay
# echo core > /sys/power/pm_test
# time echo mem > /sys/power/state
...
[ 17.583625] suspend debug: Waiting for 30 second(s).

Add support for task events as well as system-wide events. This change
has a big impact on the way that we gather LLC occupancy values in
intel_cqm_event_read().
Currently, for system-wide (per-cpu) events we defer processing to
userspace which knows how to discard all but one cpu result per package.
Things aren't so simple for task events because we need to do the value
aggregation ourselves. To do this, we defer updating the LLC occupancy
value in event->count from intel_cqm_event_read() and do an SMP
cross-call to read values for all packages in intel_cqm_event_count().
We need to ensure that we only do this for one task event per cache
group, otherwise we'll report duplicate values.
If we're a system-wide event we want to fallback to the default
perf_event_count() implementation. Refactor this into a common function
so that we don't duplicate the code.
Also, introduce PERF_TYPE_INTEL_CQM, since we need a way to track an
event's task (if the event isn't per-cpu) inside of the Intel CQM PMU
driver. This task information is only availble in the upper layers of
the perf infrastructure.
Other perf backends stash the target task in event->hw.*target so we
need to do something similar. The task is used to determine whether
events should share a cache group and an RMID.

For PMU drivers that record per-package counters, the ->count variable
cannot be used to record an accurate aggregated value, since it's not
possible to perform SMP cross-calls to cpus on other packages from the
context in which we update ->count.
Introduce a new optional ->count() accessor function that can be used to
customize how values are collected. If a PMU driver doesn't provide a
->count() function, we fallback to the existing code.
There is necessarily a window of staleness with this approach because
the task that generated the counter value may not have been scheduled by
the cpu recently.
An alternative and more complex approach would be to use a hrtimer to
periodically refresh the values from a more permissive scheduling
context. So, we're trading off complexity for accuracy.

With the new standardized functions, we can replace all

lockref and seqlock while at it.
ACCESS_ONCE() does not work reliably on non-scalar types.
For example gcc 4.6 and 4.7 might remove the volatile tag
for such accesses during the SRA (scalar replacement of
aggregates) step:
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=58145
Update the new calls regardless of if it is a scalar type,
this is cleaner than having three alternatives.

When file auditing is enabled, during a low memory situation, a memory
allocation with __GFP_FS can lead to pruning the inode cache. Which can,
in turn lead to audit_tree_freeing_mark() being called. This can call
audit_schedule_prune(), that tries to fork a pruning thread, and
waits until the thread is created. But forking needs memory, and the
memory allocations there are done with __GFP_FS.
So we are waiting merrily for some __GFP_FS memory allocations to complete,
while holding some filesystem locks. This can take a while ...
This patch creates a single thread for pruning the tree from
audit_add_tree_rule(), and thus avoids the deadlock that the on-demand
thread creation can cause.

/proc/sys/kernel/panic at run time and CONFIG_PANIC_TIMEOUT sets the
default value.
Setting panic_timeout indicates that the user requested machine to
perform unattended reboot after panic. We dont want to get stuck waiting
for the user input incase of panic.

Currently kdb allows the output of comamnds to be filtered using the
| grep feature. This is useful but does not permit the output emitted
shortly after a string match to be examined without wading through the
entire unfiltered output of the command. Such a feature is particularly
useful to navigate function traces because these traces often have a
useful trigger string *before* the point of interest.
This patch reuses the existing filtering logic to introduce a simple
forward search to kdb that can be triggered from the more prompt.

Currently when the "| grep" feature is used to filter the output of a
command then the prompt is not displayed for the subsequent command.
Likewise any characters typed by the user are also not echoed to the
display. This rather disconcerting problem eventually corrects itself
when the user presses Enter and the kdb_grepping_flag is cleared as
kdb_parse() tries to make sense of whatever they typed.
This patch resolves the problem by moving the clearing of this flag
from the middle of command processing to the beginning.

Issuing a stack dump feels ergonomically wrong when entering due to NMI.
Entering due to NMI is normally a reaction to a user request, either the
NMI button on a server or a "magic knock" on a UART. Therefore the
backtrace behaviour on entry due to NMI should be like SysRq-g (no stack
dump) rather than like oops.
Note also that the stack dump does not offer any information that
cannot be trivial retrieved using the 'bt' command.

Currently when kdb traps printk messages then the raw log level prefix
(consisting of '\001' followed by a numeral) does not get stripped off
before the message is issued to the various I/O handlers supported by
kdb. This causes annoying visual noise as well as causing problems
grepping for ^. It is also a change of behaviour compared to normal usage
of printk() usage. For example <SysRq>-h ends up with different output to
that of kdb's "sr h".
This patch addresses the problem by stripping log levels from messages
before they are issued to the I/O handlers. printk() which can also
act as an i/o handler in some cases is special cased; if the caller
provided a log level then the prefix will be preserved when sent to
printk().
The addition of non-printable characters to the output of kdb commands is a
regression, albeit and extremely elderly one, introduced by commit
04d2c8c83d ("printk: convert the format for KERN_<LEVEL> to a 2 byte
pattern"). Note also that this patch does *not* restore the original
behaviour from v3.5. Instead it makes printk() from within a kdb command
display the message without any prefix (i.e. like printk() normally does).

If the CPU is running a realtime task that does not round-robin
with another realtime task of equal priority, there is no point
in keeping the scheduler tick going. After all, whenever the
scheduler tick runs, the kernel will just decide not to

For hardware events, the userspace page of the event gets updated in
context switches, so if we read the timestamp in the page, we get
fresh info.
For software events, this is missing currently. This patch makes the
behavior consistent.
With this patch, we can implement clock_gettime(THREAD_CPUTIME) with
PERF_COUNT_SW_DUMMY in userspace as suggested by Andy and Peter. Code
like this:
if (pc->cap_user_time) {
do {
seq = pc->lock;
barrier();
running = pc->time_running;
cyc = rdtsc();
time_mult = pc->time_mult;
time_shift = pc->time_shift;
time_offset = pc->time_offset;
barrier();
} while (pc->lock != seq);
quot = (cyc >> time_shift);
rem = cyc & ((1 << time_shift) - 1);
delta = time_offset + quot * time_mult +
((rem * time_mult) >> time_shift);
running += delta;
return running;
}
I tried it on a busy system, the userspace page updating doesn't
have noticeable overhead.

37e9562453 ("locking/rwsem: Allow conservative optimistic
spinning when readers have lock") forced the default for
optimistic spinning to be disabled if the lock owner was
nil, which makes much sense for readers. However, while
it is not our priority, we can make some optimizations
for write-mostly workloads. We can bail the spinning step
and still be conservative if there are any active tasks,
otherwise there's really no reason not to spin, as the
semaphore is most likely unlocked.
This patch recovers most of a Unixbench 'execl' benchmark
throughput by sleeping less and making better average system
usage:

When readers hold the semaphore, the ->owner is nil. As such,
and unlike mutexes, '!owner' does not necessarily imply that
the lock is free. This will cause writers to potentially spin
excessively as they've been mislead to thinking they have a
chance of acquiring the lock, instead of blocking.
This patch therefore enhances the counter check when the owner
is not set by the time we've broken out of the loop. Otherwise
we can return true as a new owner has the lock and thus we want
to continue spinning. While at it, we can make rwsem_spin_on_owner()
less ambiguos and return right away under need_resched conditions.

In order to optimize the spinning step, we need to set the lock
owner as soon as the lock is acquired; after a successful counter
cmpxchg operation, that is. This is particularly useful as rwsems
need to set the owner to nil for readers, so there is a greater
chance of falling out of the spinning. Currently we only set the
owner much later in the game, in the more generic level -- latency
can be specially bad when waiting for a node->next pointer when
releasing the osq in up_write calls.
As such, update the owner inside rwsem_try_write_lock (when the
lock is obtained after blocking) and rwsem_try_write_lock_unqueued
(when the lock is obtained while spinning). This requires creating
a new internal rwsem.h header to share the owner related calls.
Also cleanup some headers for mutex and rwsem.

attach_to_pi_owner() checks p->mm to prevent attaching to kthreads and
this looks doubly wrong:
1. It should actually check PF_KTHREAD, kthread can do use_mm().
2. If this task is not kthread and it is actually the lock owner we can
wrongly return -EPERM instead of -ESRCH or retry-if-EAGAIN.
And note that this wrong EPERM is the likely case unless the exiting
task is (auto)reaped quickly, we check ->mm before PF_EXITING.

As suggested by Davidlohr, we could refactor mutex_spin_on_owner().
Currently, we split up owner_running() with mutex_spin_on_owner().
When the owner changes, we make duplicate owner checks which are not
necessary. It also makes the code a bit obscure as we are using a
second check to figure out why we broke out of the loop.
This patch modifies it such that we remove the owner_running() function
and the mutex_spin_on_owner() loop directly checks for if the owner changes,
if the owner is not running, or if we need to reschedule. If the owner
changes, we break out of the loop and return true. If the owner is not
running or if we need to reschedule, then break out of the loop and return
false.

In the mutex_spin_on_owner(), we return true only if lock->owner == NULL.
This was beneficial in situations where there were multiple threads
simultaneously spinning for the mutex. If another thread got the lock
while other spinner(s) were also doing mutex_spin_on_owner(), then the
other spinners would stop spinning. This workaround helped reduce the
chance that many spinners were simultaneously spinning for the mutex
which can help reduce contention in highly contended cases.
However, recent changes were made to the optimistic spinning code such
that instead of having all spinners simultaneously spin for the mutex,
we queue the spinners with an MCS lock such that only one thread spins
for the mutex at a time. Furthermore, the OSQ optimizations ensure that
spinners in the queue will stop waiting if it needs to reschedule.
Now, we don't have to worry about multiple threads spinning on owner
at the same time, and if lock->owner is not NULL at this point, it likely
means another thread happens to obtain the lock in the fastpath. In this
case, it would make sense for the spinner to continue spinning as long
as the spinner doesn't need to schedule and the mutex owner is running.
This patch changes this so that mutex_spin_on_owner() returns true when
the lock owner changes, which means a thread will only stop spinning
if it either needs to reschedule or if the lock owner is not running.
We saw up to a 5% performance improvement in the fserver workload with
this patch.

Commit 81907478c4 ("sched/fair: Avoid using uninitialized variable
in preferred_group_nid()") unconditionally initializes max_group with
NODE_MASK_NONE, this means that when !max_faults (max_group didn't get
set), we'll now continue the iteration with an empty mask.
Which in turn makes the actual body of the loop go away, so we'll just
iterate until completion; short circuit this by breaking out of the
loop as soon as this would happen.

There is a subtle interaction between the logic introduced in commit
e63da03639 ("sched/numa: Allow task switch if load imbalance improves"),
the way the load balancer counts the load on each NUMA node, and the way
NUMA hinting faults are done.
Specifically, the load balancer only counts currently running tasks
in the load, while NUMA hinting faults may cause tasks to stop, if
the page is locked by another task.
This could cause all of the threads of a large single instance workload,
like SPECjbb2005, to migrate to the same NUMA node. This was possible
because occasionally they all fault on the same few pages, and only one
of the threads remains runnable. That thread can move to the process's
preferred NUMA node without making the imbalance worse, because nothing
else is running at that time.
The fix is to check the direction of the net moving of load, and to
refuse a NUMA move if it would cause the system to move past the point
of balance. In an unbalanced state, only moves that bring us closer
to the balance point are allowed.

Setting the root group's cpu.rt_runtime_us to 0 is a bad thing; it
would disallow the kernel creating RT tasks.
One can of course still set it to 1, which will (likely) still wreck
your kernel, but at least make it clear that setting it to 0 is not
good.
Collect both sanity checks into the one place while we're there.

Because task_group() uses a cache of autogroup_task_group(), whose
output depends on sched_class, switching classes can generate
problems.
In particular, when started as fair, the cache points to the
autogroup, so when switching to RT the tg_rt_schedulable() test fails
for every cpu.rt_{runtime,period}_us change because now the autogroup
has tasks and no runtime.
Furthermore, going back to the previous semantics of varying
task_group() with sched_class has the down-side that the sched_debug
output varies as well, even though the task really is in the
autogroup.
Therefore add an autogroup exception to tg_has_rt_tasks() -- such that
both (all) task_group() usages in sched/core now have one. And remove
all the remnants of the variable task_group() output.

It is not possible for the clockevents core to know which modes (other than
those with a corresponding feature flag) are supported by a particular
implementation. And drivers are expected to handle transition to all modes
elegantly, as ->set_mode() would be issued for them unconditionally.
Now, adding support for a new mode complicates things a bit if we want to use
the legacy ->set_mode() callback. We need to closely review all clockevents
drivers to see if they would break on addition of a new mode. And after such
reviews, it is found that we have to do non-trivial changes to most of the
drivers [1].
Introduce mode-specific set_mode_*() callbacks, some of which the drivers may or
may not implement. A missing callback would clearly convey the message that the
corresponding mode isn't supported.
A driver may still choose to keep supporting the legacy ->set_mode() callback,
but ->set_mode() wouldn't be supporting any new modes beyond RESUME. If a driver
wants to benefit from using a new mode, it would be required to migrate to
the mode specific callbacks.
The legacy ->set_mode() callback and the newly introduced mode-specific
callbacks are mutually exclusive. Only one of them should be supported by the
driver.
Sanity check is done at the time of registration to distinguish between optional
and required callbacks and to make error recovery and handling simpler. If the
legacy ->set_mode() callback is provided, all mode specific ones would be
ignored by the core but a warning is thrown if they are present.
Call sites calling ->set_mode() directly are also updated to use
__clockevents_set_mode() instead, as ->set_mode() may not be available anymore
for few drivers.

For things like netpoll there is a need to disable an interrupt from
atomic context. Currently netpoll uses disable_irq() which will
sleep-wait on threaded handlers and thus forced_irqthreads breaks
things.
Provide disable_hardirq(), which uses synchronize_hardirq() to only wait
for active hardirq handlers; also change synchronize_hardirq() to
return the status of threaded handlers.
This will allow one to try-disable an interrupt from atomic context, or
in case of request_threaded_irq() to only wait for the hardirq part.

Additional validation of adjtimex freq values to avoid
potential multiplication overflows were added in commit
5e5aeb4367 (time: adjtimex: Validate the ADJ_FREQUENCY values)
Unfortunately the patch used LONG_MAX/MIN instead of
LLONG_MAX/MIN, which was fine on 64-bit systems, but being
much smaller on 32-bit systems caused false positives
resulting in most direct frequency adjustments to fail w/
EINVAL.
ntpd only does direct frequency adjustments at startup, so
the issue was not as easily observed there, but other time
sync applications like ptpd and chrony were more effected by
the bug.
See bugs:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=92481https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1188074
This patch changes the checks to use LLONG_MAX for
clarity, and additionally the checks are disabled
on 32-bit systems since LLONG_MAX/PPM_SCALE is always
larger then the 32-bit long freq value, so multiplication
overflows aren't possible there.

io_schedule() calls blk_flush_plug() which, depending on the
contents of current->plug, can initiate arbitrary blk-io requests.
Note that this contrasts with blk_schedule_flush_plug() which requires
all non-trivial work to be handed off to a separate thread.
This makes it possible for io_schedule() to recurse, and initiating
block requests could possibly call mempool_alloc() which, in times of
memory pressure, uses io_schedule().
Apart from any stack usage issues, io_schedule() will not behave
correctly when called recursively as delayacct_blkio_start() does
not allow for repeated calls.
So:
- use ->in_iowait to detect recursion. Set it earlier, and restore
it to the old value.
- move the call to "raw_rq" after the call to blk_flush_plug().
As this is some sort of per-cpu thing, we want some chance that
we are on the right CPU
- When io_schedule() is called recurively, use blk_schedule_flush_plug()
which cannot further recurse.
- as this makes io_schedule() a lot more complex and as io_schedule()
must match io_schedule_timeout(), but all the changes in io_schedule_timeout()
and make io_schedule a simple wrapper for that.

Since the function graph tracer needs to disable preemption, it might
call preempt_schedule() after reenabling it if something triggered the
need for rescheduling in between.
Therefore we can't trace preempt_schedule() itself because we would
face a function tracing recursion otherwise as the tracer is always
called before PREEMPT_ACTIVE gets set to prevent that recursion. This is
why preempt_schedule() is tagged as "notrace".
But the same issue applies to every function called by preempt_schedule()
before PREEMPT_ACTIVE is actually set. And preempt_schedule_common() is
one such example. Unfortunately we forgot to tag it as notrace as well
and as a result we are encountering tracing recursion since it got
introduced by:
a18b5d0181 ("sched: Fix missing preemption opportunity")
Let's fix that by applying the appropriate function tag to
preempt_schedule_common().

A deadline task may be throttled and dequeued at the same time.
This happens, when it becomes throttled in schedule(), which
is called to go to sleep:
current->state = TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE;
schedule()
deactivate_task()
dequeue_task_dl()
update_curr_dl()
start_dl_timer()
__dequeue_task_dl()
prev->on_rq = 0;
Later the timer fires, but the task is still dequeued:
dl_task_timer()
enqueue_task_dl() /* queues on dl_rq; on_rq remains 0 */
Someone wakes it up:
try_to_wake_up()
enqueue_dl_entity()
BUG_ON(on_dl_rq())
Patch fixes this problem, it prevents queueing !on_rq tasks
on dl_rq.

Kirill reported that a dl task can be throttled and dequeued at the

schedule()
deactivate_task()

prev->on_rq = 0;
This invalidates the assumption from commit 0f397f2c90 ("sched/dl:
Fix race in dl_task_timer()"):
"The only reason we don't strictly need ->pi_lock now is because
we're guaranteed to have p->state == TASK_RUNNING here and are
thus free of ttwu races".
And therefore we have to use the full task_rq_lock() here.
This further amends the fact that we forgot to update the rq lock loop
for TASK_ON_RQ_MIGRATE, from commit cca26e8009 ("sched: Teach
scheduler to understand TASK_ON_RQ_MIGRATING state").

Till now suspend-to-idle has not been able to save much more energy
than runtime PM because of timer interrupts that periodically bring
CPUs out of idle while they are waiting for a wakeup interrupt. Of
course, the timer interrupts are not wakeup ones, so the handling of
them can be deferred until a real wakeup interrupt happens, but at
the same time we don't want to mass-expire timers at that point.
The solution is to suspend the entire timekeeping when the last CPU
is entering an idle state and resume it when the first CPU goes out
of idle. That has to be done with care, though, so as to avoid
accessing suspended clocksources etc. end we need extra support
from idle drivers for that.
This series of commits adds support for quiescing timers during
suspend-to-idle and adds the requisite callbacks to intel_idle
and the ACPI cpuidle driver.

Pull suspend-to-idle updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"Suspend-to-idle timer quiescing support for v3.20-rc1
Until now suspend-to-idle has not been able to save much more energy
than runtime PM because of timer interrupts that periodically bring
CPUs out of idle while they are waiting for a wakeup interrupt. Of
course, the timer interrupts are not wakeup ones, so the handling of
them can be deferred until a real wakeup interrupt happens, but at the
same time we don't want to mass-expire timers at that point.
The solution is to suspend the entire timekeeping when the last CPU is
entering an idle state and resume it when the first CPU goes out of
idle. That has to be done with care, though, so as to avoid accessing
suspended clocksources etc. end we need extra support from idle
drivers for that.
This series of commits adds support for quiescing timers during
suspend-to-idle and adds the requisite callbacks to intel_idle and the
ACPI cpuidle driver"

"This series tightens up RDPMC permissions: currently even highly
sandboxed x86 execution environments (such as seccomp) have permission
to execute RDPMC, which may leak various perf events / PMU state such
as timing information and other CPU execution details.
This 'all is allowed' RDPMC mode is still preserved as the
(non-default) /sys/devices/cpu/rdpmc=2 setting. The new default is
that RDPMC access is only allowed if a perf event is mmap-ed (which is
needed to correctly interpret RDPMC counter values in any case).
As a side effect of these changes CR4 handling is cleaned up in the
x86 code and a shadow copy of the CR4 value is added.
The extra CR4 manipulation adds ~ <50ns to the context switch cost
between rdpmc-capable and rdpmc-non-capable mms"

The efficiency of suspend-to-idle depends on being able to keep CPUs
in the deepest available idle states for as much time as possible.
Ideally, they should only be brought out of idle by system wakeup
interrupts.
However, timer interrupts occurring periodically prevent that from
happening and it is not practical to chase all of the "misbehaving"
timers in a whack-a-mole fashion. A much more effective approach is
to suspend the local ticks for all CPUs and the entire timekeeping
along the lines of what is done during full suspend, which also
helps to keep suspend-to-idle and full suspend reasonably similar.
The idea is to suspend the local tick on each CPU executing
cpuidle_enter_freeze() and to make the last of them suspend the
entire timekeeping. That should prevent timer interrupts from
triggering until an IO interrupt wakes up one of the CPUs. It
needs to be done with interrupts disabled on all of the CPUs,
though, because otherwise the suspended clocksource might be
accessed by an interrupt handler which might lead to fatal
consequences.
Unfortunately, the existing ->enter callbacks provided by cpuidle
drivers generally cannot be used for implementing that, because some
of them re-enable interrupts temporarily and some idle entry methods
cause interrupts to be re-enabled automatically on exit. Also some
of these callbacks manipulate local clock event devices of the CPUs
which really shouldn't be done after suspending their ticks.
To overcome that difficulty, introduce a new cpuidle state callback,
->enter_freeze, that will be guaranteed (1) to keep interrupts
disabled all the time (and return with interrupts disabled) and (2)
not to touch the CPU timer devices. Modify cpuidle_enter_freeze() to
look for the deepest available idle state with ->enter_freeze present
and to make the CPU execute that callback with suspended tick (and the
last of the online CPUs to execute it with suspended timekeeping).

Theoretically, ktime_get_mono_fast_ns() may be executed after
timekeeping has been suspended (or before it is resumed) which
in turn may lead to undefined behavior, for example, when the
clocksource read from timekeeping_get_ns() called by it is
not accessible at that time.
Prevent that from happening by setting up a dummy readout base for
the fast timekeeper during timekeeping_suspend() such that it will
always return the same number of cycles.
After the last timekeeping_update() in timekeeping_suspend() the
clocksource is read and the result is stored as cycles_at_suspend.
The readout base from the current timekeeper is copied onto the
dummy and the ->read pointer of the dummy is set to a routine
unconditionally returning cycles_at_suspend. Next, the dummy is
passed to update_fast_timekeeper().
Then, ktime_get_mono_fast_ns() will work until the subsequent
timekeeping_resume() and the proper readout base for the fast
timekeeper will be restored by the timekeeping_update() called
right after clearing timekeeping_suspended.

In original code, the probed instruction doesn't get optimized after
echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/kprobes/enabled
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/kprobes/enabled
This is because original code checks kprobes_all_disarmed in
optimize_kprobe(), but this flag is turned off after calling that
function. Therefore, optimize_kprobe() will see kprobes_all_disarmed ==
true and doesn't do the optimization.
This patch simply turns off kprobes_all_disarmed earlier to enable
optimization.

This feature let us to detect accesses out of bounds of global variables.
This will work as for globals in kernel image, so for globals in modules.
Currently this won't work for symbols in user-specified sections (e.g.
__init, __read_mostly, ...)
The idea of this is simple. Compiler increases each global variable by
redzone size and add constructors invoking __asan_register_globals()
function. Information about global variable (address, size, size with
redzone ...) passed to __asan_register_globals() so we could poison
variable's redzone.
This patch also forces module_alloc() to return 8*PAGE_SIZE aligned
address making shadow memory handling (
kasan_module_alloc()/kasan_module_free() ) more simple. Such alignment
guarantees that each shadow page backing modules address space correspond
to only one module_alloc() allocation.

When a new kernfs node is created, KERNFS_STATIC_NAME is used to avoid
making a separate copy of its name. It's currently only used for sysfs
attributes whose filenames are required to stay accessible and unchanged.
There are rare exceptions where these names are allocated and formatted
dynamically but for the vast majority of cases they're consts in the
rodata section.
Now that kernfs is converted to use kstrdup_const() and kfree_const(),
there's little point in keeping KERNFS_STATIC_NAME around. Remove it.

In preparation for adding support for quiescing timers in the final
stage of suspend-to-idle transitions, rework the freeze_enter()
function making the system wait on a wakeup event, the freeze_wake()
function terminating the suspend-to-idle loop and the mechanism by
which deep idle states are entered during suspend-to-idle.
First of all, introduce a simple state machine for suspend-to-idle
and make the code in question use it.
Second, prevent freeze_enter() from losing wakeup events due to race
conditions and ensure that the number of online CPUs won't change
while it is being executed. In addition to that, make it force
all of the CPUs re-enter the idle loop in case they are in idle
states already (so they can enter deeper idle states if possible).
Next, drop cpuidle_use_deepest_state() and replace use_deepest_state
checks in cpuidle_select() and cpuidle_reflect() with a single
suspend-to-idle state check in cpuidle_idle_call().
Finally, introduce cpuidle_enter_freeze() that will simply find the
deepest idle state available to the given CPU and enter it using
cpuidle_enter().

The function is_power_of_2() also do the check on nr_pages, so the first
check performed is unnecessary. On the other hand, the key point is to
ensure @nr_pages is a power-of-two number and mostly @nr_pages is a
nonzero value, so in the most cases, the function is_power_of_2() will
be called.

When the hypervisor pauses a virtualised kernel the kernel will observe a
jump in timebase, this can cause spurious messages from the softlockup
detector.
Whilst these messages are harmless, they are accompanied with a stack
trace which causes undue concern and more problematically the stack trace
in the guest has nothing to do with the observed problem and can only be
misleading.
Futhermore, on POWER8 this is completely avoidable with the introduction
of the Virtual Time Base (VTB) register.
This patch (of 2):
This permits the use of arch specific clocks for which virtualised kernels
can use their notion of 'running' time, not the elpased wall time which
will include host execution time.

If an attacker can cause a controlled kernel stack overflow, overwriting
the restart block is a very juicy exploit target. This is because the
restart_block is held in the same memory allocation as the kernel stack.
Moving the restart block to struct task_struct prevents this exploit by
making the restart_block harder to locate.
Note that there are other fields in thread_info that are also easy
targets, at least on some architectures.
It's also a decent simplification, since the restart code is more or less
identical on all architectures.

o Several clean ups to the code
One such clean up was to convert to 64 bit time keeping, in the
ring buffer benchmark code.
o Adding of __print_array() helper macro for TRACE_EVENT()
o Updating the sample/trace_events/ to add samples of different ways to
make trace events. Lots of features have been added since the sample
code was made, and these features are mostly unknown. Developers
have been making their own hacks to do things that are already available.
o Performance improvements. Most notably, I found a performance bug where
a waiter that is waiting for a full page from the ring buffer will
see that a full page is not available, and go to sleep. The sched
event caused by it going to sleep would cause it to wake up again.
It would see that there was still not a full page, and go back to sleep
again, and that would wake it up again, until finally it would see a
full page. This change has been marked for stable.
Other improvements include removing global locks from fast paths.

Userland code may be built using an ABI which permits linking to objects
that have more restrictive floating point requirements. For example,
userland code may be built to target the O32 FPXX ABI. Such code may be
linked with other FPXX code, or code built for either one of the more
restrictive FP32 or FP64. When linking with more restrictive code, the
overall requirement of the process becomes that of the more restrictive
code. The kernel has no way to know in advance which mode the process
will need to be executed in, and indeed it may need to change during
execution. The dynamic loader is the only code which will know the
overall required mode, and so it needs to have a means to instruct the
kernel to switch the FP mode of the process.
This patch introduces 2 new options to the prctl syscall which provide
such a capability. The FP mode of the process is represented as a
simple bitmask combining a number of mode bits mirroring those present
in the hardware. Userland can either retrieve the current FP mode of
the process:
mode = prctl(PR_GET_FP_MODE);
or modify the current FP mode of the process:
err = prctl(PR_SET_FP_MODE, new_mode);

The problem is that we check nr_ptes/nr_pmds in exit_mmap() which happens
*before* pgd_free(). And if an arch does pte/pmd allocation in
pgd_alloc() and frees them in pgd_free() we see offset in counters by the
time of the checks.
We tried to workaround this by offsetting expected counter value according
to FIRST_USER_ADDRESS for both nr_pte and nr_pmd in exit_mmap(). But it
doesn't work in some cases:
1. ARM with LPAE enabled also has non-zero USER_PGTABLES_CEILING, but
upper addresses occupied with huge pmd entries, so the trick with
offsetting expected counter value will get really ugly: we will have
to apply it nr_pmds, but not nr_ptes.
2. Metag has non-zero FIRST_USER_ADDRESS, but doesn't do allocation
pte/pmd page tables allocation in pgd_alloc(), just setup a pgd entry
which is allocated at boot and shared accross all processes.
The proposal is to move the check to check_mm() which happens *after*
pgd_free() and do proper accounting during pgd_alloc() and pgd_free()
which would bring counters to zero if nothing leaked.

Dave noticed that unprivileged process can allocate significant amount of
memory -- >500 MiB on x86_64 -- and stay unnoticed by oom-killer and
memory cgroup. The trick is to allocate a lot of PMD page tables. Linux
kernel doesn't account PMD tables to the process, only PTE.
The use-cases below use few tricks to allocate a lot of PMD page tables
while keeping VmRSS and VmPTE low. oom_score for the process will be 0.
#include <errno.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/mman.h>
#include <sys/prctl.h>
#define PUD_SIZE (1UL << 30)
#define PMD_SIZE (1UL << 21)
#define NR_PUD 130000
int main(void)
{
char *addr = NULL;
unsigned long i;
prctl(PR_SET_THP_DISABLE);
for (i = 0; i < NR_PUD ; i++) {
addr = mmap(addr + PUD_SIZE, PUD_SIZE, PROT_WRITE|PROT_READ,
MAP_ANONYMOUS|MAP_PRIVATE, -1, 0);
if (addr == MAP_FAILED) {
perror("mmap");
break;
}
*addr = 'x';
munmap(addr, PMD_SIZE);
mmap(addr, PMD_SIZE, PROT_WRITE|PROT_READ,
MAP_ANONYMOUS|MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_FIXED, -1, 0);
if (addr == MAP_FAILED)
perror("re-mmap"), exit(1);
}
printf("PID %d consumed %lu KiB in PMD page tables\n",
getpid(), i * 4096 >> 10);
return pause();
}
The patch addresses the issue by account PMD tables to the process the
same way we account PTE.
The main place where PMD tables is accounted is __pmd_alloc() and
free_pmd_range(). But there're few corner cases:
- HugeTLB can share PMD page tables. The patch handles by accounting
the table to all processes who share it.
- x86 PAE pre-allocates few PMD tables on fork.
- Architectures with FIRST_USER_ADDRESS > 0. We need to adjust sanity
check on exit(2).
Accounting only happens on configuration where PMD page table's level is
present (PMD is not folded). As with nr_ptes we use per-mm counter. The
counter value is used to calculate baseline for badness score by
oom-killer.

Commit 5695be142e ("OOM, PM: OOM killed task shouldn't escape PM
suspend") has left a race window when OOM killer manages to
note_oom_kill after freeze_processes checks the counter. The race
window is quite small and really unlikely and partial solution deemed
sufficient at the time of submission.
Tejun wasn't happy about this partial solution though and insisted on a
full solution. That requires the full OOM and freezer's task freezing
exclusion, though. This is done by this patch which introduces oom_sem
RW lock and turns oom_killer_disable() into a full OOM barrier.
oom_killer_disabled check is moved from the allocation path to the OOM
level and we take oom_sem for reading for both the check and the whole
OOM invocation.
oom_killer_disable() takes oom_sem for writing so it waits for all
currently running OOM killer invocations. Then it disable all the further
OOMs by setting oom_killer_disabled and checks for any oom victims.
Victims are counted via mark_tsk_oom_victim resp. unmark_oom_victim. The
last victim wakes up all waiters enqueued by oom_killer_disable().
Therefore this function acts as the full OOM barrier.
The page fault path is covered now as well although it was assumed to be
safe before. As per Tejun, "We used to have freezing points deep in file
system code which may be reacheable from page fault." so it would be
better and more robust to not rely on freezing points here. Same applies
to the memcg OOM killer.
out_of_memory tells the caller whether the OOM was allowed to trigger and
the callers are supposed to handle the situation. The page allocation
path simply fails the allocation same as before. The page fault path will
retry the fault (more on that later) and Sysrq OOM trigger will simply
complain to the log.
Normally there wouldn't be any unfrozen user tasks after
try_to_freeze_tasks so the function will not block. But if there was an
OOM killer racing with try_to_freeze_tasks and the OOM victim didn't
finish yet then we have to wait for it. This should complete in a finite
time, though, because
- the victim cannot loop in the page fault handler (it would die
on the way out from the exception)
- it cannot loop in the page allocator because all the further
allocation would fail and __GFP_NOFAIL allocations are not
acceptable at this stage
- it shouldn't be blocked on any locks held by frozen tasks
(try_to_freeze expects lockless context) and kernel threads and
work queues are not frozen yet

This patchset addresses a race which was described in the changelog for
5695be142e ("OOM, PM: OOM killed task shouldn't escape PM suspend"):
: PM freezer relies on having all tasks frozen by the time devices are
: getting frozen so that no task will touch them while they are getting
: frozen. But OOM killer is allowed to kill an already frozen task in order
: to handle OOM situtation. In order to protect from late wake ups OOM
: killer is disabled after all tasks are frozen. This, however, still keeps
: a window open when a killed task didn't manage to die by the time
: freeze_processes finishes.
The original patch hasn't closed the race window completely because that
would require a more complex solution as it can be seen by this patchset.
The primary motivation was to close the race condition between OOM killer
and PM freezer _completely_. As Tejun pointed out, even though the race
condition is unlikely the harder it would be to debug weird bugs deep in
the PM freezer when the debugging options are reduced considerably. I can
only speculate what might happen when a task is still runnable
unexpectedly.
On a plus side and as a side effect the oom enable/disable has a better
(full barrier) semantic without polluting hot paths.
I have tested the series in KVM with 100M RAM:
- many small tasks (20M anon mmap) which are triggering OOM continually
- s2ram which resumes automatically is triggered in a loop
echo processors > /sys/power/pm_test
while true
do
echo mem > /sys/power/state
sleep 1s
done
- simple module which allocates and frees 20M in 8K chunks. If it sees
freezing(current) then it tries another round of allocation before calling
try_to_freeze
- debugging messages of PM stages and OOM killer enable/disable/fail added
and unmark_oom_victim is delayed by 1s after it clears TIF_MEMDIE and before
it wakes up waiters.
- rebased on top of the current mmotm which means some necessary updates
in mm/oom_kill.c. mark_tsk_oom_victim is now called under task_lock but
I think this should be OK because __thaw_task shouldn't interfere with any
locking down wake_up_process. Oleg?
As expected there are no OOM killed tasks after oom is disabled and
allocations requested by the kernel thread are failing after all the tasks
are frozen and OOM disabled. I wasn't able to catch a race where
oom_killer_disable would really have to wait but I kinda expected the race
is really unlikely.

The first 2 patches are simple cleanups for OOM. They should go in
regardless the rest IMO.
Patches 3 and 4 are trivial printk -> pr_info conversion and they should
go in ditto.
The main patch is the last one and I would appreciate acks from Tejun and
Rafael. I think the OOM part should be OK (except for __thaw_task vs.
task_lock where a look from Oleg would appreciated) but I am not so sure I
haven't screwed anything in the freezer code. I have found several
surprises there.
This patch (of 5):
This patch is just a preparatory and it doesn't introduce any functional
change.
Note:
I am utterly unhappy about lowmemory killer abusing TIF_MEMDIE just to
wait for the oom victim and to prevent from new killing. This is
just a side effect of the flag. The primary meaning is to give the oom
victim access to the memory reserves and that shouldn't be necessary
here.

If the scheduling-clock interrupt sets the current tasks need_qs flag,
but if the current CPU passes through a quiescent state in the meantime,
then rcu_preempt_qs() will fail to clear the need_qs flag, which can fool
RCU into thinking that additional rcu_read_unlock_special() processing
is needed. This commit therefore clears the need_qs flag before checking
for additional processing.
For this problem to occur, we need rcu_preempt_data.passed_quiesce equal
to true and current->rcu_read_unlock_special.b.need_qs also equal to true.
This condition can occur as follows:
1. CPU 0 is aware of the current preemptible RCU grace period,
but has not yet passed through a quiescent state. Among other
things, this means that rcu_preempt_data.passed_quiesce is false.
2. Task A running on CPU 0 enters a preemptible RCU read-side
critical section.
3. CPU 0 takes a scheduling-clock interrupt, which notices the
RCU read-side critical section and the need for a quiescent state,
and thus sets current->rcu_read_unlock_special.b.need_qs to true.
4. Task A is preempted, enters the scheduler, eventually invoking
rcu_preempt_note_context_switch() which in turn invokes
rcu_preempt_qs().
Because rcu_preempt_data.passed_quiesce is false,
control enters the body of the "if" statement, which sets
rcu_preempt_data.passed_quiesce to true.
5. At this point, CPU 0 takes an interrupt. The interrupt
handler contains an RCU read-side critical section, and
the rcu_read_unlock() notes that current->rcu_read_unlock_special
is nonzero, and thus invokes rcu_read_unlock_special().
6. Once in rcu_read_unlock_special(), the fact that
current->rcu_read_unlock_special.b.need_qs is true becomes
apparent, so rcu_read_unlock_special() invokes rcu_preempt_qs().
Recursively, given that we interrupted out of that same
function in the preceding step.
7. Because rcu_preempt_data.passed_quiesce is now true,
rcu_preempt_qs() does nothing, and simply returns.
8. Upon return to rcu_read_unlock_special(), it is noted that
current->rcu_read_unlock_special is still nonzero (because
the interrupted rcu_preempt_qs() had not yet gotten around
to clearing current->rcu_read_unlock_special.b.need_qs).
9. Execution proceeds to the WARN_ON_ONCE(), which notes that
we are in an interrupt handler and thus duly splats.
The solution, as noted above, is to make rcu_read_unlock_special()
clear out current->rcu_read_unlock_special.b.need_qs after calling
rcu_preempt_qs(). The interrupted rcu_preempt_qs() will clear it again,
but this is harmless. The worst that happens is that we clobber another
attempt to set this field, but this is not a problem because we just
got done reporting a quiescent state.

When an application connects to the ring buffer via splice, it can only
read full pages. Splice does not work with partial pages. If there is
not enough data to fill a page, the splice command will either block
or return -EAGAIN (if set to nonblock).
Code was added where if the page is not full, to just sleep again.
The problem is, it will get woken up again on the next event. That
is, when something is written into the ring buffer, if there is a waiter
it will wake it up. The waiter would then check the buffer, see that
it still does not have enough data to fill a page and go back to sleep.
To make matters worse, when the waiter goes back to sleep, it could
cause another event, which would wake it back up again to see it
doesn't have enough data and sleep again. This produces a tremendous
overhead and fills the ring buffer with noise.
For example, recording sched_switch on an idle system for 10 seconds
produces 25,350,475 events!!!
Create another wait queue for those waiters wanting full pages.
When an event is written, it only wakes up waiters if there's a full
page of data. It does not wake up the waiter if the page is not yet
full.
After this change, recording sched_switch on an idle system for 10
seconds produces only 800 events. Getting rid of 25,349,675 useless
events (99.9969% of events!!), is something to take seriously.

Since the introduction of the nested sleep warning; we've established
that the occasional sleep inside a wait_event() is fine.
wait_event() loops are invariant wrt. spurious wakeups, and the
occasional sleep has a similar effect on them. As long as its occasional
its harmless.
Therefore replace the 'correct' but verbose wait_woken() thing with
a simple annotation to shut up the warning.

Pull live patching infrastructure from Jiri Kosina:
"Let me provide a bit of history first, before describing what is in
this pile.
Originally, there was kSplice as a standalone project that implemented
stop_machine()-based patching for the linux kernel. This project got
later acquired, and the current owner is providing live patching as a
proprietary service, without any intentions to have their
implementation merged.
Then, due to rising user/customer demand, both Red Hat and SUSE
started working on their own implementation (not knowing about each
other), and announced first versions roughly at the same time [1] [2].
The principle difference between the two solutions is how they are
making sure that the patching is performed in a consistent way when it
comes to different execution threads with respect to the semantic
nature of the change that is being introduced.
In a nutshell, kPatch is issuing stop_machine(), then looking at
stacks of all existing processess, and if it decides that the system
is in a state that can be patched safely, it proceeds insterting code
redirection machinery to the patched functions.
On the other hand, kGraft provides a per-thread consistency during one
single pass of a process through the kernel and performs a lazy
contignuous migration of threads from "unpatched" universe to the
"patched" one at safe checkpoints.
If interested in a more detailed discussion about the consistency
models and its possible combinations, please see the thread that
evolved around [3].
It pretty quickly became obvious to the interested parties that it's
absolutely impractical in this case to have several isolated solutions
for one task to co-exist in the kernel. During a dedicated Live
Kernel Patching track at LPC in Dusseldorf, all the interested parties
sat together and came up with a joint aproach that would work for both
distro vendors. Steven Rostedt took notes [4] from this meeting.
And the foundation for that aproach is what's present in this pull
request.
It provides a basic infrastructure for function "live patching" (i.e.
code redirection), including API for kernel modules containing the
actual patches, and API/ABI for userspace to be able to operate on the
patches (look up what patches are applied, enable/disable them, etc).
It's relatively simple and minimalistic, as it's making use of
existing kernel infrastructure (namely ftrace) as much as possible.
It's also self-contained, in a sense that it doesn't hook itself in
any other kernel subsystem (it doesn't even touch any other code).
It's now implemented for x86 only as a reference architecture, but
support for powerpc, s390 and arm is already in the works (adding
arch-specific support basically boils down to teaching ftrace about
regs-saving).
Once this common infrastructure gets merged, both Red Hat and SUSE
have agreed to immediately start porting their current solutions on
top of this, abandoning their out-of-tree code. The plan basically is
that each patch will be marked by flag(s) that would indicate which
consistency model it is willing to use (again, the details have been
sketched out already in the thread at [3]).
Before this happens, the current codebase can be used to patch a large
group of secruity/stability problems the patches for which are not too
complex (in a sense that they don't introduce non-trivial change of
function's return value semantics, they don't change layout of data
structures, etc) -- this corresponds to LEAVE_FUNCTION &&
SWITCH_FUNCTION semantics described at [3].

Merge misc updates from Andrew Morton:
"Bite-sized chunks this time, to avoid the MTA ratelimiting woes.
- fs/notify updates
- ocfs2
- some of MM"
That laconic "some MM" is mainly the removal of remap_file_pages(),
which is a big simplification of the VM, and which gets rid of a *lot*
of random cruft and special cases because we no longer support the
non-linear mappings that it used.
From a user interface perspective, nothing has changed, because the
remap_file_pages() syscall still exists, it's just done by emulating the
old behavior by creating a lot of individual small mappings instead of
one non-linear one.
The emulation is slower than the old "native" non-linear mappings, but
nobody really uses or cares about remap_file_pages(), and simplifying
the VM is a big advantage.

Commit 6edb2a8a38 introduced
an array map_pages that contains the addresses returned by
kmap_atomic. However, when unmapping those pages, map_pages[0]
is unmapped before map_pages[1], breaking the nesting requirement
as specified in the documentation for kmap_atomic/kunmap_atomic.
This was caught by the highmem debug code present in kunmap_atomic.
Fix the loop to do the unmapping properly.

management with different data structure. We need to transfer from
one data structure into another when passing resources from one
subsystem into another subsystem. So move struct resource_list_entry
from ACPI into resource core and rename it as resource_entry,
then it could be reused by different subystems and avoid the data
structure conversion.

I noticed some CLOCK_TAI timer test failures on one of my

found in 76f4108892 (Cleanup hrtimer accessors to the
timekepeing state), the hrtimer_get_softirq_time tai offset
calucation was incorrectly rewritten, as the tai offset we
return shold be from CLOCK_MONOTONIC, and not CLOCK_REALTIME.
This results in CLOCK_TAI timers expiring early on non-highres
capable machines.
This patch fixes the issue, calculating the tai time properly
from the monotonic base.

Currently the adjusments made as part of perf_event_task_tick() use the
percpu rotation lists to iterate over any active PMU contexts, but these
are not used by the context rotation code, having been replaced by
separate (per-context) hrtimer callbacks. However, some manipulation of
the rotation lists (i.e. removal of contexts) has remained in
perf_rotate_context(). This leads to the following issues:
* Contexts are not always removed from the rotation lists. Removal of
PMUs which have been placed in rotation lists, but have not been
removed by a hrtimer callback can result in corruption of the rotation
lists (when memory backing the context is freed).
This has been observed to result in hangs when PMU drivers built as
modules are inserted and removed around the creation of events for
said PMUs.
* Contexts which do not require rotation may be removed from the
rotation lists as a result of a hrtimer, and will not be considered by
the unthrottling code in perf_event_task_tick.
This patch fixes the issue by updating the rotation ist when events are
scheduled in/out, ensuring that each rotation list stays in sync with
the HW state. As each event holds a refcount on the module of its PMU,
this ensures that when a PMU module is unloaded none of its CPU contexts
can be in a rotation list. By maintaining a list of perf_event_contexts
rather than perf_event_cpu_contexts, we don't need separate paths to
handle the cpu and task contexts, which also makes the code a little
simpler.
As the rotation_list variables are not used for rotation, these are
renamed to active_ctx_list, which better matches their current function.
perf_pmu_rotate_{start,stop} are renamed to
perf_pmu_ctx_{activate,deactivate}.

When initialising an event, perf_init_event will call try_module_get() to
ensure that the PMU's module cannot be removed for the lifetime of the
event, with __free_event() dropping the reference when the event is
finally destroyed. If something fails after the event has been
initialised, but before the event is installed, perf_event_alloc will
drop the reference on the module.
However, if we fail to initialise an event for some reason (e.g. we ask
an uncore PMU to perform sampling, and it refuses to initialise the
event), we do not drop the refcount. If we try to open such a bogus
event without a precise IDR type, we will loop over each PMU in the pmus
list, incrementing each of their refcounts without decrementing them.
This patch adds a module_put when pmu->event_init(event) fails, ensuring
that the refcounts are balanced in failure cases. As the innards of the
precise and search based initialisation look very similar, this logic is
hoisted out into a new helper function. While the early return for the
failed try_module_get is removed from the search case, this is handled
by the remaining return when ret is not -ENOENT.

So what I suspect; but I'm in zombie mode today it seems; is that while
I initially thought that it was impossible for ctx to change when
refcount dropped to 0, I now suspect its possible.
Note that until perf_remove_from_context() the event is still active and
visible on the lists. So a concurrent sys_perf_event_open() from another
task into this task can race.

I think the below should cure this; if we install a group leader it
will iterate the (still intact) group list and find its siblings and
try and install those too -- even though those still have the old
event->ctx -- in the new ctx.
Upon installing the first group sibling we'd try and schedule out the
group and trigger the above warn.
Fix this by installing the group leader last, installing siblings
would have no effect, they're not reachable through the group lists
and therefore we don't schedule them.
Also delay resetting the state until we're absolutely sure the events
are quiescent.

We explicitly mark the task running after returning from
a __rt_mutex_slowlock() call, which does the actual sleeping
via wait-wake-trylocking. As such, this patch does two things:
(1) refactors the code so that setting current to TASK_RUNNING
is done by __rt_mutex_slowlock(), and not by the callers. The
downside to this is that it becomes a bit unclear when at what
point we block. As such I've added a comment that the task
blocks when calling __rt_mutex_slowlock() so readers can figure
out when it is running again.
(2) relaxes setting current's state through __set_current_state(),
instead of it's more expensive barrier alternative. There was no
need for the implied barrier as we're obviously not planning on
blocking.

__schedule() disables preemption during its job and re-enables it
afterward without doing a preemption check to avoid recursion.
But if an event happens after the context switch which requires
rescheduling, we need to check again if a task of a higher priority
needs the CPU. A preempt irq can raise such a situation. To handle that,
__schedule() loops on need_resched().
But preempt_schedule_*() functions, which call __schedule(), also loop
on need_resched() to handle missed preempt irqs. Hence we end up with
the same loop happening twice.
Lets simplify that by attributing the need_resched() loop responsibility
to all __schedule() callers.
There is a risk that the outer loop now handles reschedules that used
to be handled by the inner loop with the added overhead of caller details
(inc/dec of PREEMPT_ACTIVE, irq save/restore) but assuming those inner
rescheduling loop weren't too frequent, this shouldn't matter. Especially
since the whole preemption path is now losing one loop in any case.

cpu_active_mask is rarely changed (only on hotplug), so remove this
operation to gain a little performance.
If there is a change in cpu_active_mask, rq_online_dl() and
rq_offline_dl() should take care of it normally, so cpudl::free_cpus
carries enough information for us.
For the rare case when a task is put onto a dying cpu (which
rq_offline_dl() can't handle in a timely fashion), it will be
handled through _cpu_down()->...->multi_cpu_stop()->migration_call()
->migrate_tasks(), preventing the task from hanging on the
dead cpu.

When we fail to start the deadline timer in update_curr_dl(), we
forget to clear ->dl_yielded, resulting in wrecked time keeping.
Since the natural place to clear both ->dl_yielded and ->dl_throttled
is in replenish_dl_entity(); both are after all waiting for that event;
make it so.
Luckily since 67dfa1b756 ("sched/deadline: Implement
cancel_dl_timer() to use in switched_from_dl()") the
task_on_rq_queued() condition in dl_task_timer() must be true, and can
therefore call enqueue_task_dl() unconditionally.

Commit 67dfa1b756 ("sched/deadline: Implement cancel_dl_timer() to
use in switched_from_dl()") removed the hrtimer_try_cancel() function
call out from init_dl_task_timer(), which gets called from
__setparam_dl().
The result is that we can now re-init the timer while its active --
this is bad and corrupts timer state.
Furthermore; changing the parameters of an active deadline task is
tricky in that you want to maintain guarantees, while immediately
effective change would allow one to circumvent the CBS guarantees --
this too is bad, as one (bad) task should not be able to affect the
others.
Rework things to avoid both problems. We only need to initialize the
timer once, so move that to __sched_fork() for new tasks.
Then make sure __setparam_dl() doesn't affect the current running
state but only updates the parameters used to calculate the next
scheduling period -- this guarantees the CBS functions as expected
(albeit slightly pessimistic).
This however means we need to make sure __dl_clear_params() needs to
reset the active state otherwise new (and tasks flipping between
classes) will not properly (re)compute their first instance.
Todo: close class flipping CBS hole.
Todo: implement delayed BW release.

The tracing "instances" directory can create sub tracing buffers
with mkdir, and remove them with rmdir. As a mkdir will also create
all the files and directories that control the sub buffer the inode
mutexes need to be released before this is done, to avoid deadlocks.
It is better to let the tracing system unlock the inode mutexes before
calling the functions that create the files within the new directory
(or deletes the files from the one being destroyed).
Now that tracing has been converted over to tracefs, the tracefs file
system can be modified to accommodate this feature. It still releases
the locks, but the filesystem itself can take care of the ugly
business and let the user just do what it needs.
The tracing system now attaches a descriptor to the directory dentry
that can have userspace create or remove sub directories. If this
descriptor does not exist for a dentry, then that dentry can not be
used to create other directories. This descriptor holds a mkdir and
rmdir method that only takes a character string as an argument.
The tracefs file system will first make a copy of the dentry name
before releasing the locks. Then it will pass the copied name to the
methods. It is up to the tracing system that supplied the methods to
handle races with duplicate names and such as all the inode mutexes
would be released when the functions are called.

As tools currently rely on the tracing directory in debugfs, we can not
just created a tracefs infrastructure and expect sysadmins to mount
the new tracefs to have their old tools work.
Instead, the debugfs tracing directory is still created and the tracefs
file system is mounted there when the debugfs filesystem is mounted.
No longer does the tracing infrastructure update the debugfs file system,
but instead interacts with the tracefs file system. But now, it still
appears to the user like nothing changed, except you also have the feature
of mounting just the tracing system without needing all of debugfs!

debugfs was fine for the tracing facility as a quick way to get
an interface. Now that tracing has matured, it should separate itself
from debugfs such that it can be mounted separately without needing
to mount all of debugfs with it. That is, users resist using tracing
because it requires mounting debugfs. Having tracing have its own file
system lets users get the features of tracing without needing to bring
in the rest of the kernel's debug infrastructure.
Another reason for tracefs is that debubfs does not support mkdir.
Currently, to create instances, one does a mkdir in the tracing/instance
directory. This is implemented via a hack that forces debugfs to do
something it is not intended on doing. By converting over to tracefs, this
hack can be removed and mkdir can be properly implemented. This patch does
not address this yet, but it lays the ground work for that to be done.

Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
Pull in Al Viro's changes to debugfs that implement the new primitive:
debugfs_create_automount(), that creates a directory in debugfs that will
safely mount another file system automatically when debugfs is mounted.
This will let tracefs automount itself on top of debugfs/tracing directory.
The top level trace array is treated a little different than the
instances, as it has to deal with more of the general tracing.
The tr->dir is the tracing directory, which is an immutable
dentry, where as the tr->dir of instances are the dentry that
was created, and can be destroyed later. These should have different
functions accessing them.
As only tracing_init_dentry() deals with the top level array, fold
the code for it into that function, and remove the trace_init_dentry_tr()
that was also used by the instances to get their directory dentry.
Add a tracing_get_dentry() to just get the tracing dir entry for
instances as well as the top level array.

Commit 8eb23b9f35 ("sched: Debug nested sleeps") added code to report
on nested sleep conditions, which we generally want to avoid because the
inner sleeping operation can re-set the thread state to TASK_RUNNING,
but that will then cause the outer sleep loop not actually sleep when it
calls schedule.
However, that's actually valid traditional behavior, with the inner
sleep being some fairly rare case (like taking a sleeping lock that
normally doesn't actually need to sleep).
And the debug code would actually change the state of the task to
TASK_RUNNING internally, which makes that kind of traditional and
working code not work at all, because now the nested sleep doesn't just
sometimes cause the outer one to not block, but will cause it to happen
every time.
In particular, it will cause the cardbus kernel daemon (pccardd) to
basically busy-loop doing scheduling, converting a laptop into a heater,
as reported by Bruno Prémont. But there may be other legacy uses of
that nested sleep model in other drivers that are also likely to never
get converted to the new model.
This fixes both cases:
- don't set TASK_RUNNING when the nested condition happens (note: even
if WARN_ONCE() only _warns_ once, the return value isn't whether the
warning happened, but whether the condition for the warning was true.
So despite the warning only happening once, the "if (WARN_ON(..))"
would trigger for every nested sleep.
- in the cases where we knowingly disable the warning by using
"sched_annotate_sleep()", don't change the task state (that is used
for all core scheduling decisions), instead use '->task_state_change'
that is used for the debugging decision itself.
(Credit for the second part of the fix goes to Oleg Nesterov: "Can't we
avoid this subtle change in behaviour DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP adds?" with the
suggested change to use 'task_state_change' as part of the test)

However this does not take into account scenarios where cpu_idle_force_poll

the resched flag. So a cpu will be caught in cpu_idle_poll() needlessly,
thereby wasting power. Add an explicit check on cpu_idle_force_poll and

If an interrupt fires in cond_resched(), between the call to __schedule()
and the PREEMPT_ACTIVE count decrementation, and that interrupt sets
TIF_NEED_RESCHED, the call to preempt_schedule_irq() will be ignored
due to the PREEMPT_ACTIVE count. This kind of scenario, with irq preemption
being delayed because it's interrupting a preempt-disabled area, is
usually fixed up after preemption is re-enabled back with an explicit
call to preempt_schedule().
This is what preempt_enable() does but a raw preempt count decrement as
performed by __preempt_count_sub(PREEMPT_ACTIVE) doesn't handle delayed
preemption check. Therefore when such a race happens, the rescheduling
is going to be delayed until the next scheduler or preemption entrypoint.
This can be a problem for scheduler latency sensitive workloads.
Lets fix that by consolidating cond_resched() with preempt_schedule()
internals.

If a trace event contains an array, there is currently no standard
way to format this for text output. Drivers are currently hacking
around this by a) local hacks that use the trace_seq functionailty
directly, or b) just not printing that information. For fixed size
arrays, formatting of the elements can be open-coded, but this gets
cumbersome for arrays of non-trivial size.
These approaches result in non-standard content of the event format
description delivered to userspace, so userland tools needs to be
taught to understand and parse each array printing method
individually.
This patch implements a __print_array() helper that tracepoint
implementations can use instead of reinventing it. A simple C-style
syntax is used to delimit the array and its elements {like,this}.
So that the helpers can be used with large static arrays as well as
dynamic arrays, they take a pointer and element count: they can be
used with __get_dynamic_array() for use with dynamic arrays.

of this is an IST rework. When an IST exception interrupts user

IST entry/exit code, because it eliminates some ugly games we used
to play in order to handle rescheduling, signal delivery, etc on the
way out of an IST exception.
The IST rework introduces proper context tracking to IST exception
handlers. I haven't seen any bug reports, but the old code could
have incorrectly treated an IST exception handler as an RCU extended
quiescent state.
The memory failure change (included in this pull request with
Borislav and Tony's permission) eliminates a bunch of code that
is no longer needed now that user memory failure handlers are

Finally, this includes a few on Denys' uncontroversial and Obviously

IST entry/exit code, because it eliminates some ugly games we used
to play in order to handle rescheduling, signal delivery, etc on the
way out of an IST exception.
The IST rework introduces proper context tracking to IST exception
handlers. I haven't seen any bug reports, but the old code could
have incorrectly treated an IST exception handler as an RCU extended
quiescent state.
The memory failure change (included in this pull request with
Borislav and Tony's permission) eliminates a bunch of code that
is no longer needed now that user memory failure handlers are
called in process context.
Finally, this includes a few on Denys' uncontroversial and Obviously
Correct (tm) cleanups.
The IST and memory failure changes have been in -next for a while.

The fix from 9fc81d8742 ("perf: Fix events installation during
moving group") was incomplete in that it failed to recognise that
creating a group with events for different CPUs is semantically
broken -- they cannot be co-scheduled.
Furthermore, it leads to real breakage where, when we create an event
for CPU Y and then migrate it to form a group on CPU X, the code gets
confused where the counter is programmed -- triggered in practice
as well by me via the perf fuzzer.
Fix this by tightening the rules for creating groups. Only allow
grouping of counters that can be co-scheduled in the same context.
This means for the same task and/or the same cpu.

At least some gcc versions - validly afaict - warn about potentially
using max_group uninitialized: There's no way the compiler can prove
that the body of the conditional where it and max_faults get set/
updated gets executed; in fact, without knowing all the details of
other scheduler code, I can't prove this either.
Generally the necessary change would appear to be to clear max_group
prior to entering the inner loop, and break out of the outer loop when
it ends up being all clear after the inner one. This, however, seems
inefficient, and afaict the same effect can be achieved by exiting the
outer loop when max_faults is still zero after the inner loop.
[ mingo: changed the solution to zero initialization: uninitialized_var()
needs to die, as it's an actively dangerous construct: if in the future
a known-proven-good piece of code is changed to have a true, buggy
uninitialized variable, the compiler warning is then supressed...
The better long term solution is to clean up the code flow, so that
even simple minded compilers (and humans!) are able to read it without
getting a headache. ]

Pull cgroup fix from Tejun Heo:
"The lifetime rules of cgroup hierarchies always have been somewhat
counter-intuitive and cgroup core tried to enforce that hierarchies
w/o userland-visible usages must die in finite amount of time so that
the controllers can be reused for other hierarchies; unfortunately,
this can't be implemented reasonably for the memory controller - the
kmemcg part doesn't have any way to forcefully drain the existing
usages, leading to an interruptible hang if a following mount attempts
to use the controller in any way.
So, it seems like we're stuck with "hierarchies live on till they die
whenever that may be" at least for now. This pretty much confines
attaching controllers to hierarchies to before the hierarchies are
actively used by making dynamic configurations post active usages
unreliable. This has never been reliable and should be fine in
practice given how cgroups are used.
After the patch, hierarchies aren't killed if it isn't already
drained. A following mount attempt of the same mount options will
reuse the existing hierarchy. Mount attempts with differing options
will fail w/ -EBUSY"

At least on ARM, do_div() is optimized to turn constant divisors into
an inline multiplication by the reciprocal value at compile time.
However this optimization is missed entirely whenever ktime_divns() is
used and the slow out-of-line division code is used all the time.
Let ktime_divns() use do_div() inline whenever the divisor is constant
and small enough. This will make things like ktime_to_us() and
ktime_to_ms() much faster.

PM QoS requests are notoriously hard to debug and made even
more so due to their highly dynamic nature. Having visibility
into the internal data representation per constraint allows
us to have much better appreciation of potential issues or
bad usage by drivers in the system.
So introduce for all classes of PM QoS, an entry in
/sys/kernel/debug/pm_qos that shall show all the current
requests as well as the snapshot of the value these requests
boil down to. For example:
==> /sys/kernel/debug/pm_qos/cpu_dma_latency <==
1: 4444: Active
2: 2000000000: Default
3: 2000000000: Default
4: 2000000000: Default
Type=Minimum, Value=4444, Requests: active=1 / total=4
==> /sys/kernel/debug/pm_qos/memory_bandwidth <==
Empty!
...
The actual value listed will have their meaning based
on the QoS it is on, the 'Type' indicates what logic
it would use to collate the information - Minimum,
Maximum, or Sum. Value is the collation of all requests.
This interface also compares the values with the defaults
for the QoS class and marks the ones that are
currently active.

hrtimer_interrupt() has the following subtle issue:
hrtimer_interrupt()
lock(cpu_base);
expires_next = KTIME_MAX;
expire_timers(CLOCK_MONOTONIC);
expires = get_next_timer(CLOCK_MONOTONIC);
if (expires < expires_next)
expires_next = expires;
expire_timers(CLOCK_REALTIME);
unlock(cpu_base);
wakeup()
hrtimer_start(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, newtimer);
lock(cpu_base();
expires = get_next_timer(CLOCK_REALTIME);
if (expires < expires_next)
expires_next = expires;
So because we already evaluated the next expiring timer of
CLOCK_MONOTONIC we ignore that the expiry time of newtimer might be
earlier than the overall next expiry time in hrtimer_interrupt().
To solve this, remove the caching of the next expiry value from
hrtimer_interrupt() and reevaluate all active clock bases for the next
expiry value. To avoid another code duplication, create a shared
evaluation function and use it for hrtimer_get_next_event(),
hrtimer_force_reprogram() and hrtimer_interrupt().
There is another subtlety in this mechanism:
While hrtimer_interrupt() is running, we want to avoid to touch the
hardware device because we will reprogram it anyway at the end of
hrtimer_interrupt(). This works nicely for hrtimers which get rearmed
via the HRTIMER_RESTART mechanism, because we drop out when the
callback on that CPU is running. But that fails, if a new timer gets
enqueued like in the example above.
This has another implication: While hrtimer_interrupt() is running we
refuse remote enqueueing of timers - see hrtimer_interrupt() and
hrtimer_check_target().
hrtimer_interrupt() tries to prevent this by setting cpu_base->expires
to KTIME_MAX, but that fails if a new timer gets queued.
Prevent both the hardware access and the remote enqueue
explicitely. We can loosen the restriction on the remote enqueue now
due to reevaluation of the next expiry value, but that needs a
seperate patch.

Problem:
The default behavior of the kernel is somewhat undesirable as all
requested interrupts end up on CPU0 after registration. A user can
run irqbalance daemon, or can manually configure smp_affinity via the
proc filesystem, but the default affinity of the interrupts for all
devices is always CPU zero, this can cause performance problems or
very heavy cpu use of only one core if not noticed and fixed by the
user.
Solution:
Enable the setting of the initial affinity directly when the driver
sets a hint.
This enabling means that kernel drivers can include an initial
affinity setting for the interrupt, instead of all interrupts starting
out life on CPU0. Of course if irqbalance is still running then the
interrupts will get moved as before.
This function is currently called by drivers in block, crypto,
infiniband, ethernet and scsi trees, but only a handful, so these will
be the devices affected by this change.
Tested on i40e, and default interrupts were spread across the CPUs
according to the hint.

In order to ensure that filenames are not released before the audit
subsystem is done with the strings there are a number of hacks built
into the fs and audit subsystems around getname() and putname(). To
say these hacks are "ugly" would be kind.
This patch removes the filename hackery in favor of a more
conventional reference count based approach. The diffstat below tells
most of the story; lots of audit/fs specific code is replaced with a
traditional reference count based approach that is easily understood,
even by those not familiar with the audit and/or fs subsystems.

In all likelihood there were some subtle, and perhaps not so subtle,
bugs with filename matching in audit_inode() and audit_inode_child()
for some time, however, recent changes to the audit filename code have
definitely broken the filename matching code. The breakage could
result in duplicate filenames in the audit log and other odd audit
record entries. This patch fixes the filename matching code and

Since b2052564e6 ("mm: memcontrol: continue cache reclaim from
offlined groups"), re-mounting the memory controller after using it is
very likely to hang.
The cgroup core assumes that any remaining references after deleting a
cgroup are temporary in nature, and synchroneously waits for them, but
the above-mentioned commit has left-over page cache pin its css until
it is reclaimed naturally. That being said, swap entries and charged
kernel memory have been doing the same indefinite pinning forever, the
bug is just more likely to trigger with left-over page cache.
Reparenting kernel memory is highly impractical, which leaves changing
the cgroup assumptions to reflect this: once a controller has been
mounted and used, it has internal state that is independent from mount
and cgroup lifetime. It can be unmounted and remounted, but it can't
be reconfigured during subsequent mounts.
Don't offline the controller root as long as there are any children,
dead or alive. A remount will no longer wait for these old references
to drain, it will simply mount the persistent controller state again.

Pull workqueue fix from Tejun Heo:
"The xfs folks have been running into weird and very rare lockups for
some time now. I didn't think this could have been from workqueue
side because no one else was reporting it. This time, Eric had a
kdump which we looked into and it turned out this actually was a
workqueue bug and the bug has been there since the beginning of
concurrency managed workqueue.
A worker pool ensures forward progress of the workqueues associated
with it by always having at least one worker reserved from executing
work items. When the pool is under contention, the idle one tries to
create more workers for the pool and if that doesn't succeed quickly
enough, it calls the rescuers to the pool.
This logic had a subtle race condition in an early exit path. When a
worker invokes this manager function, the function may return %false
indicating that the caller may proceed to executing work items either
because another worker is already performing the role or conditions
have changed and the pool is no longer under contention.
The latter part depended on the assumption that whether more workers
are necessary or not remains stable while the pool is locked; however,
pool->nr_running (concurrency count) may change asynchronously and it
getting bumped from zero asynchronously could send off the last idle
worker to execute work items.
The race window is fairly narrow, and, even when it gets triggered,
the pool deadlocks iff if all work items get blocked on pending work
items of the pool, which is highly unlikely but can be triggered by
xfs.
The patch removes the race window by removing the early exit path,
which doesn't server any purpose anymore anyway"
* 'for-3.19-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq:
workqueue: fix subtle pool management issue which can stall whole worker_pool
Add support for patching a function multiple times. If multiple patches
affect a function, the function in the most recently enabled patch
"wins". This enables a cumulative patch upgrade path, where each patch
is a superset of previous patches.
This requires restructuring the data a little bit. With the current
design, where each klp_func struct has its own ftrace_ops, we'd have to
unregister the old ops and then register the new ops, because
FTRACE_OPS_FL_IPMODIFY prevents us from having two ops registered for
the same function at the same time. That would leave a regression
window where the function isn't patched at all (not good for a patch
upgrade path).
This patch replaces the per-klp_func ftrace_ops with a global klp_ops
list, with one ftrace_ops per original function. A single ftrace_ops is
shared between all klp_funcs which have the same old_addr. This allows
the switch between function versions to happen instantaneously by
updating the klp_ops struct's func_stack list. The winner is the
klp_func at the top of the func_stack (front of the list).

The kallsyms routines (module_symbol_name, lookup_module_* etc) disable
preemption to walk the modules rather than taking the module_mutex:
this is because they are used for symbol resolution during oopses.
This works because there are synchronize_sched() and synchronize_rcu()
in the unload and failure paths. However, there's one case which doesn't
have that: the normal case where module loading succeeds, and we free
the init section.
We don't want a synchronize_rcu() there, because it would slow down
module loading: this bug was introduced in 2009 to speed module
loading in the first place.
Thus, we want to do the free in an RCU callback. We do this in the
simplest possible way by allocating a new rcu_head: if we put it in
the module structure we'd have to worry about that getting freed.

Archs have been abusing module_free() to clean up their arch-specific
allocations. Since module_free() is also (ab)used by BPF and trace code,
let's keep it to simple allocations, and provide a hook called before
that.
This means that avr32, ia64, parisc and s390 no longer need to implement
their own module_free() at all. avr32 doesn't need module_finalize()
either.

This patch fixes two separate buglets in calls to futex_lock_pi():
* Eliminate unused 'detect' argument
* Change unused 'timeout' argument of FUTEX_TRYLOCK_PI to NULL
The 'detect' argument of futex_lock_pi() seems never to have been
used (when it was included with the initial PI mutex implementation
in Linux 2.6.18, all checks against its value were disabled by
ANDing against 0 (i.e., if (detect... && 0)), and with
commit 778e9a9c3e, any mention of
this argument in futex_lock_pi() went way altogether. Its presence
now serves only to confuse readers of the code, by giving the
impression that the futex() FUTEX_LOCK_PI operation actually does
use the 'val' argument. This patch removes the argument.
The futex_lock_pi() call that corresponds to FUTEX_TRYLOCK_PI includes
'timeout' as one of its arguments. This misleads the reader into thinking
that the FUTEX_TRYLOCK_PI operation does employ timeouts for some sensible
purpose; but it does not. Indeed, it cannot, because the checks at the
start of sys_futex() exclude FUTEX_TRYLOCK_PI from the set of operations
that do copy_from_user() on the timeout argument. So, in the
FUTEX_TRYLOCK_PI futex_lock_pi() call it would be simplest to change
'timeout' to 'NULL'. This patch does that.

Contrary to common expectations for an "int" return, these functions
return only a positive value -- if used correctly they cannot even
return 0 because the message header will necessarily be in the skb.
This makes the very common pattern of
if (genlmsg_end(...) < 0) { ... }
be a whole bunch of dead code. Many places also simply do
return nlmsg_end(...);
and the caller is expected to deal with it.
This also commonly (at least for me) causes errors, because it is very
common to write
if (my_function(...))
/* error condition */
and if my_function() does "return nlmsg_end()" this is of course wrong.
Additionally, there's not a single place in the kernel that actually
needs the message length returned, and if anyone needs it later then
it'll be very easy to just use skb->len there.
Remove this, and make the functions void. This removes a bunch of dead
code as described above. The patch adds lines because I did
- return nlmsg_end(...);
+ nlmsg_end(...);
+ return 0;
I could have preserved all the function's return values by returning
skb->len, but instead I've audited all the places calling the affected
functions and found that none cared. A few places actually compared
the return value with <= 0 in dump functionality, but that could just
be changed to < 0 with no change in behaviour, so I opted for the more
efficient version.
One instance of the error I've made numerous times now is also present
in net/phonet/pn_netlink.c in the route_dumpit() function - it didn't
check for <0 or <=0 and thus broke out of the loop every single time.
I've preserved this since it will (I think) have caused the messages to
userspace to be formatted differently with just a single message for
every SKB returned to userspace. It's possible that this isn't needed
for the tools that actually use this, but I don't even know what they
are so couldn't test that changing this behaviour would be acceptable.

A worker_pool's forward progress is guaranteed by the fact that the
last idle worker assumes the manager role to create more workers and
summon the rescuers if creating workers doesn't succeed in timely
manner before proceeding to execute work items.
This manager role is implemented in manage_workers(), which indicates
whether the worker may proceed to work item execution with its return
value. This is necessary because multiple workers may contend for the
manager role, and, if there already is a manager, others should
proceed to work item execution.
Unfortunately, the function also indicates that the worker may proceed
to work item execution if need_to_create_worker() is false at the head
of the function. need_to_create_worker() tests the following
conditions.
pending work items && !nr_running && !nr_idle
The first and third conditions are protected by pool->lock and thus
won't change while holding pool->lock; however, nr_running can change
asynchronously as other workers block and resume and while it's likely
to be zero, as someone woke this worker up in the first place, some
other workers could have become runnable inbetween making it non-zero.
If this happens, manage_worker() could return false even with zero
nr_idle making the worker, the last idle one, proceed to execute work
items. If then all workers of the pool end up blocking on a resource
which can only be released by a work item which is pending on that
pool, the whole pool can deadlock as there's no one to create more
workers or summon the rescuers.
This patch fixes the problem by removing the early exit condition from
maybe_create_worker() and making manage_workers() return false iff
there's already another manager, which ensures that the last worker
doesn't start executing work items.
We can leave the early exit condition alone and just ignore the return
value but the only reason it was put there is because the
manage_workers() used to perform both creations and destructions of
workers and thus the function may be invoked while the pool is trying
to reduce the number of workers. Now that manage_workers() is called
only when more workers are needed, the only case this early exit
condition is triggered is rare race conditions rendering it pointless.
Tested with simulated workload and modified workqueue code which
trigger the pool deadlock reliably without this patch.

the mixture of function graph tracing and kprobes.
When jprobes and function graph tracing is enabled at the same time
it will crash the system.
# modprobe jprobe_example
# echo function_graph > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
After the first fork (jprobe_example probes it), the system will crash.
This is due to the way jprobes copies the stack frame and does not
do a normal function return. This messes up with the function graph
tracing accounting which hijacks the return address from the stack
and replaces it with a hook function. It saves the return addresses in
a separate stack to put back the correct return address when done.
But because the jprobe functions do not do a normal return, their
stack addresses are not put back until the function they probe is called,
which means that the probed function will get the return address of
the jprobe handler instead of its own.
The simple fix here was to disable function graph tracing while the
jprobe handler is being called.
While debugging this I found two minor bugs with the function graph
tracing.
The first was about the function graph tracer sharing its function hash
with the function tracer (they both get filtered by the same input).
The changing of the set_ftrace_filter would not sync the function recording
records after a change if the function tracer was disabled but the
function graph tracer was enabled. This was due to the update only checking
one of the ops instead of the shared ops to see if they were enabled and
should perform the sync. This caused the ftrace accounting to break and
a ftrace_bug() would be triggered, disabling ftrace until a reboot.
The second was that the check to update records only checked one of the
filter hashes. It needs to test both the "filter" and "notrace" hashes.
The "filter" hash determines what functions to trace where as the "notrace"
hash determines what functions not to trace (trace all but these).
Both hashes need to be passed to the update code to find out what change
is being done during the update. This also broke the ftrace record
accounting and triggered a ftrace_bug().
This patch set also include two more fixes that were reported separately
from the kprobe issue.
One was that init_ftrace_syscalls() was called twice at boot up.
This is not a major bug, but that call performed a rather large kmalloc
(NR_syscalls * sizeof(*syscalls_metadata)). The second call made the first
one a memory leak, and wastes memory.
The other fix is a regression caused by an update in the v3.19 merge window.
The moving to enable events early, moved the enabling before PID 1 was
created. The syscall events require setting the TIF_SYSCALL_TRACEPOINT
for all tasks. But for_each_process_thread() does not include the swapper
task (PID 0), and ended up being a nop. A suggested fix was to add
the init_task() to have its flag set, but I didn't really want to mess
with PID 0 for this minor bug. Instead I disable and re-enable events again
at early_initcall() where it use to be enabled. This also handles any other
event that might have its own reg function that could break at early
boot up.

The tiny RCU CPU stall detection depends on *rcp->curtail not being
NULL. It is however a tail pointer and thus NULL by definition. Instead we
should check rcp->rcucblist for the presence of pending callbacks which
need to be processed. With this fix INFO about the stall is printed and
jiffies_stall (jiffies at next stall) correctly updated.

Although cond_resched_rcu_qs() only applies to TASKS_RCU, it is used
in places where it would be useful for it to apply to the normal RCU
flavors, rcu_preempt, rcu_sched, and rcu_bh. This is especially the
case for workloads that aggressively overload the system, particularly
those that generate large numbers of RCU updates on systems running
NO_HZ_FULL CPUs. This commit therefore communicates quiescent states
from cond_resched_rcu_qs() to the normal RCU flavors.
Note that it is unfortunately necessary to leave the old ->passed_quiesce
mechanism in place to allow quiescent states that apply to only one
flavor to be recorded. (Yes, we could decrement ->rcu_qs_ctr_snap in
that case, but that is not so good for debugging of RCU internals.)
In addition, if one of the RCU flavor's grace period has stalled, this
will invoke rcu_momentary_dyntick_idle(), resulting in a heavy-weight
quiescent state visible from other CPUs.

[ paulmck: Merge commit from Sasha Levin fixing a bug where __this_cpu()
was used in preemptible code. ]
Recent testing has shown that under heavy load, running RCU's grace-period
kthreads at real-time priority can improve performance (according to 0day
test robot) and reduce the incidence of RCU CPU stall warnings. However,
most systems do just fine with the default non-realtime priorities for
these kthreads, and it does not make sense to expose the entire user
base to any risk stemming from this change, given that this change is
of use only to a few users running extremely heavy workloads.
Therefore, this commit allows users to specify realtime priorities
for the grace-period kthreads, but leaves them running SCHED_OTHER
by default. The realtime priority may be specified at build time
via the RCU_KTHREAD_PRIO Kconfig parameter, or at boot time via the
rcutree.kthread_prio parameter. Either way, 0 says to continue the
default SCHED_OTHER behavior and values from 1-99 specify that priority
of SCHED_FIFO behavior. Note that a value of 0 is not permitted when
the RCU_BOOST Kconfig parameter is specified.

Commit 5f893b2639 "tracing: Move enabling tracepoints to just after
rcu_init()" broke the enabling of system call events from the command
line. The reason was that the enabling of command line trace events
was moved before PID 1 started, and the syscall tracepoints require
that all tasks have the TIF_SYSCALL_TRACEPOINT flag set. But the
swapper task (pid 0) is not part of that. Since the swapper task is the
only task that is running at this early in boot, no task gets the
flag set, and the tracepoint never gets reached.
Instead of setting the swapper task flag (there should be no reason to
do that), re-enabled trace events again after the init thread (PID 1)
has been started. It requires disabling all command line events and
re-enabling them, as just enabling them again will not reset the logic
to set the TIF_SYSCALL_TRACEPOINT flag, as the syscall tracepoint will
be fooled into thinking that it was already set, and wont try setting
it again. For this reason, we must first disable it and re-enable it.

trace_init() calls init_ftrace_syscalls() and then calls trace_event_init()
which also calls init_ftrace_syscalls(). It makes more sense to only
call it from trace_event_init().
Calling it twice wastes memory, as it allocates the syscall events twice,
and loses the first copy of it.

Using just the filter for checking for trampolines or regs is not enough
when updating the code against the records that represent all functions.
Both the filter hash and the notrace hash need to be checked.
To trigger this bug (using trace-cmd and perf):
# perf probe -a do_fork
# trace-cmd start -B foo -e probe
# trace-cmd record -p function_graph -n do_fork sleep 1
The trace-cmd record at the end clears the filter before it disables
function_graph tracing and then that causes the accounting of the
ftrace function records to become incorrect and causes ftrace to bug.

Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
As the set_ftrace_filter affects both the function tracer as well as the
function graph tracer, the ops that represent each have a shared
ftrace_ops_hash structure. This allows both to be updated when the filter
files are updated.
But if function graph is enabled and the global_ops (function tracing) ops
is not, then it is possible that the filter could be changed without the
update happening for the function graph ops. This will cause the changes
to not take place and may even cause a ftrace_bug to occur as it could mess
with the trampoline accounting.
The solution is to check if the ops uses the shared global_ops filter and
if the ops itself is not enabled, to check if there's another ops that is
enabled and also shares the global_ops filter. In that case, the
modification still needs to be executed.

While debugging an issue with excessive softirq usage, I encountered the
following note in commit 3e339b5dae ("softirq: Use hotplug thread
infrastructure"):
[ paulmck: Call rcu_note_context_switch() with interrupts enabled. ]
...but despite this note, the patch still calls RCU with IRQs disabled.
This seemingly innocuous change caused a significant regression in softirq
CPU usage on the sending side of a large TCP transfer (~1 GB/s): when
introducing 0.01% packet loss, the softirq usage would jump to around 25%,
spiking as high as 50%. Before the change, the usage would never exceed 5%.
Moving the call to rcu_note_context_switch() after the cond_sched() call,
as it was originally before the hotplug patch, completely eliminated this
problem.

While debugging some "sleeping function called from invalid context" bug I
realized that the debugging message "Preemption disabled at:" pointed to
an incorrect function.
In particular if the last function/action that disabled preemption was
spin_lock_bh() then current->preempt_disable_ip won't be updated.
The reason for this is that __local_bh_disable_ip() will increase
preempt_count manually instead of calling preempt_count_add(), which
would handle the update correctly.
It look like the manual handling was done to work around some lockdep issue.
So add the missing update of current->preempt_disable_ip to
__local_bh_disable_ip() as well.

Both mutexes and rwsems took a performance hit when we switched
over from the original mcs code to the cancelable variant (osq).
The reason being the use of smp_load_acquire() when polling for
node->locked. This is not needed as reordering is not an issue,
as such, relax the barrier semantics. Paul describes the scenario
nicely: https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/11/19/405
- If we start polling before the insertion is complete, all that
happens is that the first few polls have no chance of seeing a lock
grant.
- Ordering the polling against the initialization -- the above
xchg() is already doing that for us.
The smp_load_acquire() when unqueuing make sense. In addition,
we don't need to worry about leaking the critical region as
osq is only used internally.

Both Linus (most recent) and Steve (a while ago) reported that perf
related callbacks have massive stack bloat.
The problem is that software events need a pt_regs in order to
properly report the event location and unwind stack. And because we
could not assume one was present we allocated one on stack and filled
it with minimal bits required for operation.
Now, pt_regs is quite large, so this is undesirable. Furthermore it
turns out that most sites actually have a pt_regs pointer available,
making this even more onerous, as the stack space is pointless waste.
This patch addresses the problem by observing that software events
have well defined nesting semantics, therefore we can use static
per-cpu storage instead of on-stack.
Linus made the further observation that all but the scheduler callers
of perf_sw_event() have a pt_regs available, so we change the regular
perf_sw_event() to require a valid pt_regs (where it used to be
optional) and add perf_sw_event_sched() for the scheduler.
We have a scheduler specific call instead of a more generic _noregs()
like construct because we can assume non-recursion from the scheduler
and thereby simplify the code further (_noregs would have to put the
recursion context call inline in order to assertain which __perf_regs
element to use).
One last note on the implementation of perf_trace_buf_prepare(); we
allow .regs = NULL for those cases where we already have a pt_regs
pointer available and do not need another.

While each one is independent of the other, we currently mix and match
them. This patch:
- Moves the OSQ code out of mcs_spinlock.h (which only deals with the traditional
version) into include/linux/osq_lock.h. No unnecessary code is added to the
more global header file, anything locks that make use of OSQ must include
it anyway.
- Renames mcs_spinlock.c to osq_lock.c. This file only contains osq code.
- Introduces a CONFIG_LOCK_SPIN_ON_OWNER in order to only build osq_lock
if there is support for it.

The original purpose of rq::skip_clock_update was to avoid 'costly' clock
updates for back to back wakeup-preempt pairs. The big problem with it
has always been that the rq variable is unaware of the context and
causes indiscrimiate clock skips.
Rework the entire thing and create a sense of context by only allowing
schedule() to skip clock updates. (XXX can we measure the cost of the
added store?)
By ensuring only schedule can ever skip an update, we guarantee we're
never more than 1 tick behind on the update.

functions can be deleted. This commit carries out that deletion, while
also wiring "sched"'s ->completed field to rcu_batches_completed_sched().

The counter returned by the various ->completed functions is subject to
overflow, which means that subtracting two such counters might result
in overflow, which invokes undefined behavior in the C standard. This
commit therefore changes these functions and variables to unsigned to
avoid this undefined behavior.

Long ago, the various ->completed fields were of type long, but now are
unsigned long due to signed-integer-overflow concerns. However, the
various _batches_completed() functions remained of type long, even though
their only purpose in life is to return the corresponding ->completed
field. This patch cleans this up by changing these functions' return
types to unsigned long.

Cleanups
kdb: Remove unused command flags, repeat flags and KDB_REPEAT_NONE
Fixes
kgdb/kdb: Allow access on a single core, if a CPU round up is deemed
impossible, which will allow inspection of the now "trashed" kernel
kdb: Add enable mask for the command groups
kdb: access controls to restrict sensitive commands

When applying multiple patches to a module, if the module is loaded
after the patches are loaded, the patches are applied in reverse order:
$ insmod patch1.ko
[ 43.172992] livepatch: enabling patch 'patch1'
$ insmod patch2.ko
[ 46.571563] livepatch: enabling patch 'patch2'
$ modprobe nfsd
[ 52.888922] livepatch: applying patch 'patch2' to loading module 'nfsd'
[ 52.899847] livepatch: applying patch 'patch1' to loading module 'nfsd'
Fix the loading order by storing the klp_patches list in queue order.

CONFIG_GCOV_FORMAT_3_4 / _4_7 / _AUTODETECT are exclusive.
Compare the CC version only when _AUTODETECT is enabled.
This change should have no impact.

Kbuild descends into kernel/gcov/ directory only when
CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL is enabled. (See kernel/Makefile)
CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL check can be omitted in kernel/gcov/Makefile.

Since commit 371fdc77af (kbuild: collect shorthands into
scripts/Kbuild.include), scripts/Makefile.clean includes
scripts/Kbuild.include.
The workaround and the comment block in kernel/gcov/Makefile
are no longer necessary.
