Extend lockdep to validate lock wait-type context.
The current wait-types are:
LD_WAIT_FREE, /* wait free, rcu etc.. */
LD_WAIT_SPIN, /* spin loops, raw_spinlock_t etc.. */
LD_WAIT_CONFIG, /* CONFIG_PREEMPT_LOCK, spinlock_t etc.. */
LD_WAIT_SLEEP, /* sleeping locks, mutex_t etc.. */
Where lockdep validates that the current lock (the one being acquired)
fits in the current wait-context (as generated by the held stack).
This ensures that there is no attempt to acquire mutexes while holding
spinlocks, to acquire spinlocks while holding raw_spinlocks and so on. In
other words, its a more fancy might_sleep().
Obviously RCU made the entire ordeal more complex than a simple single
value test because RCU can be acquired in (pretty much) any context and
while it presents a context to nested locks it is not the same as it
got acquired in.
Therefore its necessary to split the wait_type into two values, one
representing the acquire (outer) and one representing the nested context
(inner). For most 'normal' locks these two are the same.
[ To make static initialization easier we have the rule that:
.outer == INV means .outer == .inner; because INV == 0. ]
It further means that its required to find the minimal .inner of the held
stack to compare against the outer of the new lock; because while 'normal'
RCU presents a CONFIG type to nested locks, if it is taken while already
holding a SPIN type it obviously doesn't relax the rules.
Below is an example output generated by the trivial test code:
raw_spin_lock(&foo);
spin_lock(&bar);
spin_unlock(&bar);
raw_spin_unlock(&foo);
[ BUG: Invalid wait context ]
-----------------------------
swapper/0/1 is trying to lock:
ffffc90000013f20 (&bar){....}-{3:3}, at: kernel_init+0xdb/0x187
other info that might help us debug this:
1 lock held by swapper/0/1:
#0: ffffc90000013ee0 (&foo){+.+.}-{2:2}, at: kernel_init+0xd1/0x187
The way to read it is to look at the new -{n,m} part in the lock
description; -{3:3} for the attempted lock, and try and match that up to
the held locks, which in this case is the one: -{2,2}.
This tells that the acquiring lock requires a more relaxed environment than
presented by the lock stack.
Currently only the normal locks and RCU are converted, the rest of the
lockdep users defaults to .inner = INV which is ignored. More conversions
can be done when desired.
The check for spinlock_t nesting is not enabled by default. It's a separate
config option for now as there are known problems which are currently
addressed. The config option allows to identify these problems and to
verify that the solutions found are indeed solving them.
The config switch will be removed and the checks will permanently enabled
once the vast majority of issues has been addressed.

Many embedded boards have a disconnected TTL level serial which can
generate some garbage that can lead to spurious false sysrq detects.
Currently, sysrq can be either completely disabled for serial console
or always disabled (with CONFIG_MAGIC_SYSRQ_SERIAL), since
commit 732dbf3a61 ("serial: do not accept sysrq characters via serial port")
At Arista, we have such boards that can generate BREAK and random
garbage. While disabling sysrq for serial console would solve
the problem with spurious false sysrq triggers, it's also desirable
to have a way to enable sysrq back.
As a measure of balance between on and off options, add
MAGIC_SYSRQ_SERIAL_SEQUENCE which is a string sequence that can enable
sysrq if it follows BREAK on a serial line. The longer the string - the
less likely it may be in the garbage.
Having the way to enable sysrq was beneficial to debug lockups with
a manual investigation in field and on the other side preventing false
sysrq detections.

This CONFIG option was added by commit 35bb5b1e0e ("Add option to
enable -Wframe-larger-than= on gcc 4.4"). At that time, the cc-option
check was needed.
According to Documentation/process/changes.rst, the current minimal
supported version of GCC is 4.6, so you can assume GCC supports it.
Clang supports it as well.

kunit: allow kunit tests to be loaded as a module
kunit: hide unexported try-catch interface in try-catch-impl.h
kunit: move string-stream.h to lib/kunit
apparmor: add AppArmor KUnit tests for policy unpack
As tests are added to kunit, it will become less feasible to execute
all built tests together. By supporting modular tests we provide
a simple way to do selective execution on a running system; specifying
CONFIG_KUNIT=y
CONFIG_KUNIT_EXAMPLE_TEST=m
...means we can simply "insmod example-test.ko" to run the tests.
To achieve this we need to do the following:
o export the required symbols in kunit
o string-stream tests utilize non-exported symbols so for now we skip
building them when CONFIG_KUNIT_TEST=m.
o drivers/base/power/qos-test.c contains a few unexported interface
references, namely freq_qos_read_value() and freq_constraints_init().
Both of these could be potentially defined as static inline functions
in include/linux/pm_qos.h, but for now we simply avoid supporting
module build for that test suite.
o support a new way of declaring test suites. Because a module cannot
do multiple late_initcall()s, we provide a kunit_test_suites() macro
to declare multiple suites within the same module at once.
o some test module names would have been too general ("test-test"
and "example-test" for kunit tests, "inode-test" for ext4 tests);
rename these as appropriate ("kunit-test", "kunit-example-test"
and "ext4-inode-test" respectively).
Also define kunit_test_suite() via kunit_test_suites()
as callers in other trees may need the old definition.

Currently, some sanity checks for uapi headers are done by
scripts/headers_check.pl, which is wired up to the 'headers_check'
target in the top Makefile.
It is true compiling headers has better test coverage, but there
are still several headers excluded from the compile test. I like
to keep headers_check.pl for a while, but we can delete a lot of
code by moving the build rule to usr/include/Makefile.

Add a KUnit test for the kernel doubly linked list implementation in
include/linux/list.h
Each test case (list_test_x) is focused on testing the behaviour of the
list function/macro 'x'. None of the tests pass invalid lists to these
macros, and so should behave identically with DEBUG_LIST enabled and
disabled.
Note that, at present, it only tests the list_ types (not the
singly-linked hlist_), and does not yet test all of the
list_for_each_entry* macros (and some related things like
list_prepare_entry).
Ignoring checkpatch.pl spurious errors related to its handling of for_each
and other list macros. checkpatch.pl expects anything with for_each in its
name to be a loop and expects that the open brace is placed on the same
line as for a for loop. In this case, test case naming scheme includes
name of the macro it is testing, which results in the spurious errors.

It has been suggested several times to extend vsnprintf() to be able
to convert the numeric value of ENOSPC to print "ENOSPC". This
implements that as a %p extension: With %pe, one can do
if (IS_ERR(foo)) {
pr_err("Sorry, can't do that: %pe\n", foo);
return PTR_ERR(foo);
}
instead of what is seen in quite a few places in the kernel:
if (IS_ERR(foo)) {
pr_err("Sorry, can't do that: %ld\n", PTR_ERR(foo));
return PTR_ERR(foo);
}
If the value passed to %pe is an ERR_PTR, but the library function
errname() added here doesn't know about the value, the value is simply
printed in decimal. If the value passed to %pe is not an ERR_PTR, we
treat it as an ordinary %p and thus print the hashed value (passing
non-ERR_PTR values to %pe indicates a bug in the caller, but we can't
do much about that).
With my embedded hat on, and because it's not very invasive to do,
I've made it possible to remove this. The errname() function and
associated lookup tables take up about 3K. For most, that's probably
quite acceptable and a price worth paying for more readable
dmesg (once this starts getting used), while for those that disable
printk() it's of very little use - I don't see a
procfs/sysfs/seq_printf() file reasonably making use of this - and
they clearly want to squeeze vmlinux as much as possible. Hence the
default y if PRINTK.
The symbols to include have been found by massaging the output of
find arch include -iname 'errno*.h' | xargs grep -E 'define\s*E'
In the cases where some common aliasing exists
(e.g. EAGAIN=EWOULDBLOCK on all platforms, EDEADLOCK=EDEADLK on most),
I've moved the more popular one (in terms of 'git grep -w Efoo | wc)
to the bottom so that one takes precedence.

Commit 9012d01166 ("compiler: allow all arches to enable
CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING") allowed all architectures to enable this
option. A couple of build errors were reported by randconfig, but all of
them have been ironed out.
Towards the goal of removing CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING entirely (and it
will simplify the 'inline' macro in compiler_types.h), this commit changes
it to always-on option. Going forward, the compiler will always be
allowed to not inline functions marked 'inline'.
This is not a problem for x86 since it has been long used by
arch/x86/configs/{x86_64,i386}_defconfig.
I am keeping the config option just in case any problem crops up for other
architectures.
The code clean-up will be done after confirming this is solid.

There are some machines with slow disk and fast CPUs. When they are under
memory pressure, it could take a long time to swap before the OOM kicks in
to free up some memory. As the results, it needs a large mem pool for
kmemleak or suffering from higher chance of a kmemleak metadata allocation
failure. 524288 proves to be the good number for all architectures here.
Increase the upper bound to 1M to leave some room for the future.

Currently kmemleak uses a static early_log buffer to trace all memory
allocation/freeing before the slab allocator is initialised. Such early
log is replayed during kmemleak_init() to properly initialise the kmemleak
metadata for objects allocated up that point. With a memory pool that
does not rely on the slab allocator, it is possible to skip this early log
entirely.
In order to remove the early logging, consider kmemleak_enabled == 1 by
default while the kmem_cache availability is checked directly on the
object_cache and scan_area_cache variables. The RCU callback is only
invoked after object_cache has been initialised as we wouldn't have any
concurrent list traversal before this.
In order to reduce the number of callbacks before kmemleak is fully
initialised, move the kmemleak_init() call to mm_init().

The current default value (400) is too low on many systems (e.g. some
ARM64 platform takes up 1000+ entries).
syzbot uses 16000 as default value, and has proved to be enough on beefy
configurations, so let's pick that value.
This consumes more RAM on boot (each entry is 160 bytes, so in total
~2.5MB of RAM), but the memory would later be freed (early_log is
__initdata).

Instead of adding "depends on MODULES", I moved it to the sub-menu
"Enable loadable module support", which is a better fit. I put it
close to TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS because it depends on !UNUSED_SYMBOLS.

...
While descending directories, Kbuild produces objects for modules,
but do not link final *.ko files; it is done in the modpost.
To keep track of modules, Kbuild creates a *.mod file in $(MODVERDIR)
for every module it is building. Some post-processing steps read the
necessary information from *.mod files. This avoids descending into
directories again. This mechanism was introduced in 2003 or so.
Later, commit 551559e13a ("kbuild: implement modules.order") added
modules.order. So, we can simply read it out to know all the modules
with directory paths. This is easier than parsing the first line of
*.mod files.
$(MODVERDIR) has a flat directory structure, that is, *.mod files
are named only with base names. This is based on the assumption that
the module name is unique across the tree. This assumption is really
fragile.
Stephen Rothwell reported a race condition caused by a module name
conflict:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/5/13/991
In parallel building, two different threads could write to the same
$(MODVERDIR)/*.mod simultaneously.
Non-unique module names are the source of all kind of troubles, hence
commit 3a48a91901 ("kbuild: check uniqueness of module names")
introduced a new checker script.
However, it is still fragile in the build system point of view because
this race happens before scripts/modules-check.sh is invoked. If it
happens again, the modpost will emit unclear error messages.
To fix this issue completely, create *.mod with full directory path
so that two threads never attempt to write to the same file.
$(MODVERDIR) is no longer needed.
Since modules with directory paths are listed in modules.order, Kbuild
is still able to find *.mod files without additional descending.
I also killed cmd_secanalysis; scripts/mod/sumversion.c computes MD4 hash
for modules with MODULE_VERSION(). When CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH=y,
it occurs not only in the modpost stage, but also during directory
descending, where sumversion.c may parse stale *.mod files. It would emit
'No such file or directory' warning when an object consisting a module is
renamed, or when a single-obj module is turned into a multi-obj module or
vice versa.

Convert the locking documents to ReST and add them to the
kernel development book where it belongs.
Most of the stuff here is just to make Sphinx to properly
parse the text file, as they're already in good shape,
not requiring massive changes in order to be parsed.
The conversion is actually:
- add blank lines and identation in order to identify paragraphs;
- fix tables markups;
- add some lists markups;
- mark literal blocks;
- adjust title markups.
At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to
the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings.

Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The main changes in this cycle are:
- rwsem scalability improvements, phase #2, by Waiman Long, which are
rather impressive:
"On a 2-socket 40-core 80-thread Skylake system with 40 reader
and writer locking threads, the min/mean/max locking operations
done in a 5-second testing window before the patchset were:
40 readers, Iterations Min/Mean/Max = 1,807/1,808/1,810
40 writers, Iterations Min/Mean/Max = 1,807/50,344/151,255
After the patchset, they became:
40 readers, Iterations Min/Mean/Max = 30,057/31,359/32,741
40 writers, Iterations Min/Mean/Max = 94,466/95,845/97,098"
There's a lot of changes to the locking implementation that makes
it similar to qrwlock, including owner handoff for more fair
locking.
Another microbenchmark shows how across the spectrum the
improvements are:
"With a locking microbenchmark running on 5.1 based kernel, the
total locking rates (in kops/s) on a 2-socket Skylake system
with equal numbers of readers and writers (mixed) before and
after this patchset were:
# of Threads Before Patch After Patch
------------ ------------ -----------
2 2,618 4,193
4 1,202 3,726
8 802 3,622
16 729 3,359
32 319 2,826
64 102 2,744"
The changes are extensive and the patch-set has been through
several iterations addressing various locking workloads. There
might be more regressions, but unless they are pathological I
believe we want to use this new implementation as the baseline
going forward.
- jump-label optimizations by Daniel Bristot de Oliveira: the primary
motivation was to remove IPI disturbance of isolated RT-workload
CPUs, which resulted in the implementation of batched jump-label
updates. Beyond the improvement of the real-time characteristics
kernel, in one test this patchset improved static key update
overhead from 57 msecs to just 1.4 msecs - which is a nice speedup
as well.
- atomic64_t cross-arch type cleanups by Mark Rutland: over the last
~10 years of atomic64_t existence the various types used by the
APIs only had to be self-consistent within each architecture -
which means they became wildly inconsistent across architectures.
Mark puts and end to this by reworking all the atomic64
implementations to use 's64' as the base type for atomic64_t, and
to ensure that this type is consistently used for parameters and
return values in the API, avoiding further problems in this area.
- A large set of small improvements to lockdep by Yuyang Du: type
cleanups, output cleanups, function return type and othr cleanups
all around the place.
- A set of percpu ops cleanups and fixes by Peter Zijlstra.

A Reed-Solomon code with minimum distance d can correct any error and
erasure pattern that satisfies 2 * #error + #erasures < d. If the
error correction capacity is exceeded, then correct decoding cannot be
guaranteed. The decoder must, however, return a valid codeword or report
failure.
There are two main tests:
- Check for correct behaviour up to the error correction capacity
- Check for correct behaviour beyond error corrupted capacity
Both tests are simple:
1. Generate random data
2. Encode data with the chosen code
3. Add errors and erasures to data
4. Decode the corrupted word
5. Check for correct behaviour
When testing up to capacity we test for:
- Correct decoding
- Correct return value (i.e. the number of corrected symbols)
- That the returned error positions are correct
There are two kinds of erasures; the erased symbol can be corrupted or
not. When counting the number of corrected symbols, erasures without
symbol corruption should not be counted. Similarly, the returned error
positions should only include positions where a correction is necessary.
We run the up to capacity tests for three different interfaces of
decode_rs:
- Use the correction buffers
- Use the correction buffers with syndromes provided by the caller
- Error correction in place (does not check the error positions)
When testing beyond capacity test for silent failures. A silent failure is
when the decoder returns success but the returned word is not a valid
codeword.
There are a couple of options for the tests:
- Verbosity.
- Whether to test for correct behaviour beyond capacity. Default is to
test beyond capacity.
- Whether to allow erasures without symbol corruption. Defaults to yes.
Note that the tests take a couple of minutes to complete.

The owner field in the rw_semaphore structure is used primarily for
optimistic spinning. However, identifying the rwsem owner can also be
helpful in debugging as well as tracing locking related issues when
analyzing crash dump. The owner field may also store state information
that can be important to the operation of the rwsem.
So the owner field is now made a permanent member of the rw_semaphore
structure irrespective of CONFIG_RWSEM_SPIN_ON_OWNER.
