Pull scheduler fixes from Ingo Molnar:
- Apply a number of membarrier related fixes and cleanups, which fixes
a use-after-free race in the membarrier code
- Introduce proper RCU protection for tasks on the runqueue - to get
rid of the subtle task_rcu_dereference() interface that was easy to
get wrong
- Misc fixes, but also an EAS speedup
* 'sched-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
sched/fair: Avoid redundant EAS calculation
sched/core: Remove double update_max_interval() call on CPU startup

tasks, sched/core: RCUify the assignment of rq->curr
tasks, sched/core: With a grace period after finish_task_switch(), remove unnecessary code
tasks, sched/core: Ensure tasks are available for a grace period after leaving the runqueue
tasks: Add a count of task RCU users
sched/core: Convert vcpu_is_preempted() from macro to an inline function
sched/fair: Remove unused cfs_rq_clock_task() function
Add a count of the number of RCU users (currently 1) of the task
struct so that we can later add the scheduler case and get rid of the
very subtle task_rcu_dereference(), and just use rcu_dereference().
As suggested by Oleg have the count overlap rcu_head so that no
additional space in task_struct is required.

This is more cleanup and consolidation of the hmm APIs and the very
strongly related mmu_notifier interfaces. Many places across the tree
using these interfaces are touched in the process. Beyond that a cleanup
to the page walker API and a few memremap related changes round out the
series:
- General improvement of hmm_range_fault() and related APIs, more
documentation, bug fixes from testing, API simplification &
consolidation, and unused API removal
- Simplify the hmm related kconfigs to HMM_MIRROR and DEVICE_PRIVATE, and
make them internal kconfig selects
- Hoist a lot of code related to mmu notifier attachment out of drivers by
using a refcount get/put attachment idiom and remove the convoluted
mmu_notifier_unregister_no_release() and related APIs.
- General API improvement for the migrate_vma API and revision of its only
user in nouveau
- Annotate mmu_notifiers with lockdep and sleeping region debugging
Two series unrelated to HMM or mmu_notifiers came along due to
dependencies:
- Allow pagemap's memremap_pages family of APIs to work without providing
a struct device
- Make walk_page_range() and related use a constant structure for function

"Timers and timekeeping updates:
- A large overhaul of the posix CPU timer code which is a preparation
for moving the CPU timer expiry out into task work so it can be
properly accounted on the task/process.
An update to the bogus permission checks will come later during the
merge window as feedback was not complete before heading of for

- Switch the timerqueue code to use cached rbtrees and get rid of the
homebrewn caching of the leftmost node.
- Consolidate hrtimer_init() + hrtimer_init_sleeper() calls into a
single function
- Implement the separation of hrtimers to be forced to expire in hard
interrupt context even when PREEMPT_RT is enabled and mark the
affected timers accordingly.
- Implement a mechanism for hrtimers and the timer wheel to protect
RT against priority inversion and live lock issues when a (hr)timer
which should be canceled is currently executing the callback.
Instead of infinitely spinning, the task which tries to cancel the
timer blocks on a per cpu base expiry lock which is held and
released by the (hr)timer expiry code.
- Enable the Hyper-V TSC page based sched_clock for Hyper-V guests
resulting in faster access to timekeeping functions.

In some special cases we must not block, but there's not a spinlock,
preempt-off, irqs-off or similar critical section already that arms the
might_sleep() debug checks. Add a non_block_start/end() pair to annotate
these.
This will be used in the oom paths of mmu-notifiers, where blocking is not
allowed to make sure there's forward progress. Quoting Michal:
"The notifier is called from quite a restricted context - oom_reaper -
which shouldn't depend on any locks or sleepable conditionals. The code
should be swift as well but we mostly do care about it to make a forward
progress. Checking for sleepable context is the best thing we could come
up with that would describe these demands at least partially."
Peter also asked whether we want to catch spinlocks on top, but Michal
said those are less of a problem because spinlocks can't have an indirect
dependency upon the page allocator and hence close the loop with the oom
reaper.

Per task/process data of posix CPU timers is all over the place which
makes the code hard to follow and requires ifdeffery.
Create a container to hold all this information in one place, so data is
consolidated and the ifdeffery can be confined to the posix timer header
file and removed from places like fork.
As a first step, move the cpu_timers list head array into the new struct
and clean up the initializers and simplify fork. The remaining #ifdef in
fork will be removed later.

Pull request_key improvements from David Howells:
"These are all request_key()-related, including a fix and some improvements:
- Fix the lack of a Link permission check on a key found by
request_key(), thereby enabling request_key() to link keys that
don't grant this permission to the target keyring (which must still
grant Write permission).
Note that the key must be in the caller's keyrings already to be
found.
- Invalidate used request_key authentication keys rather than
revoking them, so that they get cleaned up immediately rather than
hanging around till the expiry time is passed.
- Move the RCU locks outwards from the keyring search functions so
that a request_key_rcu() can be provided. This can be called in RCU
mode, so it can't sleep and can't upcall - but it can be called
from LOOKUP_RCU pathwalk mode.
- Cache the latest positive result of request_key*() temporarily in
task_struct so that filesystems that make a lot of request_key()
calls during pathwalk can take advantage of it to avoid having to
redo the searching. This requires CONFIG_KEYS_REQUEST_CACHE=y.
It is assumed that the key just found is likely to be used multiple
times in each step in an RCU pathwalk, and is likely to be reused
for the next step too.
Note that the cleanup of the cache is done on TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME,
just before userspace resumes, and on exit"

The SCHED_DEADLINE scheduling class provides an advanced and formal
model to define tasks requirements that can translate into proper
decisions for both task placements and frequencies selections. Other
classes have a more simplified model based on the POSIX concept of
priorities.
Such a simple priority based model however does not allow to exploit
most advanced features of the Linux scheduler like, for example, driving
frequencies selection via the schedutil cpufreq governor. However, also
for non SCHED_DEADLINE tasks, it's still interesting to define tasks
properties to support scheduler decisions.
Utilization clamping exposes to user-space a new set of per-task
attributes the scheduler can use as hints about the expected/required
utilization for a task. This allows to implement a "proactive" per-task
frequency control policy, a more advanced policy than the current one
based just on "passive" measured task utilization. For example, it's
possible to boost interactive tasks (e.g. to get better performance) or
cap background tasks (e.g. to be more energy/thermal efficient).
Introduce a new API to set utilization clamping values for a specified
task by extending sched_setattr(), a syscall which already allows to
define task specific properties for different scheduling classes. A new
pair of attributes allows to specify a minimum and maximum utilization
the scheduler can consider for a task.
Do that by validating the required clamp values before and then applying
the required changes using _the_ same pattern already in use for
__setscheduler(). This ensures that the task is re-enqueued with the new
clamp values.

Tasks without a user-defined clamp value are considered not clamped

[0..SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE] range.
Tasks with a user-defined clamp value are allowed to request any value
in that range, and the required clamp is unconditionally enforced.
However, a "System Management Software" could be interested in limiting
the range of clamp values allowed for all tasks.

/proc/sys/kernel/sched_uclamp_util_{min,max}
which works as an unconditional clamp range restriction for all tasks.
With the default configuration, the full SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE range of
values is allowed for each clamp index. Otherwise, the task-specific
clamp is capped by the corresponding system default value.
Do that by tracking, for each task, the "effective" clamp value and
bucket the task has been refcounted in at enqueue time. This
allows to lazy aggregate "requested" and "system default" values at
enqueue time and simplifies refcounting updates at dequeue time.
The cached bucket ids are used to avoid (relatively) more expensive
integer divisions every time a task is enqueued.
An active flag is used to report when the "effective" value is valid and
thus the task is actually refcounted in the corresponding rq's bucket.

Utilization clamping allows to clamp the CPU's utilization within a
[util_min, util_max] range, depending on the set of RUNNABLE tasks on
that CPU. Each task references two "clamp buckets" defining its minimum
and maximum (util_{min,max}) utilization "clamp values". A CPU's clamp
bucket is active if there is at least one RUNNABLE tasks enqueued on
that CPU and refcounting that bucket.
When a task is {en,de}queued {on,from} a rq, the set of active clamp
buckets on that CPU can change. If the set of active clamp buckets
changes for a CPU a new "aggregated" clamp value is computed for that
CPU. This is because each clamp bucket enforces a different utilization
clamp value.
Clamp values are always MAX aggregated for both util_min and util_max.
This ensures that no task can affect the performance of other
co-scheduled tasks which are more boosted (i.e. with higher util_min
clamp) or less capped (i.e. with higher util_max clamp).
A task has:
task_struct::uclamp[clamp_id]::bucket_id
to track the "bucket index" of the CPU's clamp bucket it refcounts while
enqueued, for each clamp index (clamp_id).
A runqueue has:
rq::uclamp[clamp_id]::bucket[bucket_id].tasks
to track how many RUNNABLE tasks on that CPU refcount each
clamp bucket (bucket_id) of a clamp index (clamp_id).
It also has a:
rq::uclamp[clamp_id]::bucket[bucket_id].value
to track the clamp value of each clamp bucket (bucket_id) of a clamp
index (clamp_id).
The rq::uclamp::bucket[clamp_id][] array is scanned every time it's
needed to find a new MAX aggregated clamp value for a clamp_id. This
operation is required only when it's dequeued the last task of a clamp
bucket tracking the current MAX aggregated clamp value. In this case,
the CPU is either entering IDLE or going to schedule a less boosted or
more clamped task.
The expected number of different clamp values configured at build time
is small enough to fit the full unordered array into a single cache
line, for configurations of up to 7 buckets.
Add to struct rq the basic data structures required to refcount the
number of RUNNABLE tasks for each clamp bucket. Add also the max
aggregation required to update the rq's clamp value at each
enqueue/dequeue event.
Use a simple linear mapping of clamp values into clamp buckets.
Pre-compute and cache bucket_id to avoid integer divisions at
enqueue/dequeue time.

If a filesystem uses keys to hold authentication tokens, then it needs a
token for each VFS operation that might perform an authentication check -
either by passing it to the server, or using to perform a check based on
authentication data cached locally.
For open files this isn't a problem, since the key should be cached in the
file struct since it represents the subject performing operations on that
file descriptor.
During pathwalk, however, there isn't anywhere to cache the key, except
perhaps in the nameidata struct - but that isn't exposed to the
filesystems. Further, a pathwalk can incur a lot of operations, calling
one or more of the following, for instance:
->lookup()
->permission()
->d_revalidate()
->d_automount()
->get_acl()
->getxattr()
on each dentry/inode it encounters - and each one may need to call
request_key(). And then, at the end of pathwalk, it will call the actual
operation:
->mkdir()
->mknod()
->getattr()
->open()
...
which may need to go and get the token again.
However, it is very likely that all of the operations on a single
dentry/inode - and quite possibly a sequence of them - will all want to use
the same authentication token, which suggests that caching it would be a
good idea.
To this end:
(1) Make it so that a positive result of request_key() and co. that didn't
require upcalling to userspace is cached temporarily in task_struct.
(2) The cache is 1 deep, so a new result displaces the old one.
(3) The key is released by exit and by notify-resume.
(4) The cache is cleared in a newly forked process.

The stop_machine loop to advance the state machine and to wait for all
affected CPUs to check-in calls cpu_relax_yield in a tight loop until
the last missing CPUs acknowledged the state transition.
On a virtual system where not all logical CPUs are backed by real CPUs
all the time it can take a while for all CPUs to check-in. With the
current definition of cpu_relax_yield a diagnose 0x44 is done which
tells the hypervisor to schedule *some* other CPU. That can be any
CPU and not necessarily one of the CPUs that need to run in order to
advance the state machine. This can lead to a pretty bad diagnose 0x44
storm until the last missing CPU finally checked-in.
Replace the undirected cpu_relax_yield based on diagnose 0x44 with a
directed yield. Each CPU in the wait loop will pick up the next CPU
in the cpumask of stop_machine. The diagnose 0x9c is used to tell the
hypervisor to run this next CPU instead of the current one. If there
is only a limited number of real CPUs backing the virtual CPUs we
end up with the real CPUs passed around in a round-robin fashion.

In commit:
4b53a3412d ("sched/core: Remove the tsk_nr_cpus_allowed() wrapper")
the tsk_nr_cpus_allowed() wrapper was removed. There was not
much difference in !RT but in RT we used this to implement
migrate_disable(). Within a migrate_disable() section the CPU mask is
restricted to single CPU while the "normal" CPU mask remains untouched.
As an alternative implementation Ingo suggested to use:
struct task_struct {
const cpumask_t *cpus_ptr;
cpumask_t cpus_mask;
};
with
t->cpus_ptr = &t->cpus_mask;
In -RT we then can switch the cpus_ptr to:
t->cpus_ptr = &cpumask_of(task_cpu(p));
in a migration disabled region. The rules are simple:
- Code that 'uses' ->cpus_allowed would use the pointer.
- Code that 'modifies' ->cpus_allowed would use the direct mask.

When RCU core processing is offloaded from RCU_SOFTIRQ to the rcuc
kthreads, a full and unconditional wakeup is required to initiate RCU
core processing. In contrast, when RCU core processing is carried
out by RCU_SOFTIRQ, a raise_softirq() suffices. Of course, there are
situations where raise_softirq() does a full wakeup, but these do not
occur with normal usage of rcu_read_unlock().
The reason that full wakeups can be problematic is that the scheduler
sometimes invokes rcu_read_unlock() with its pi or rq locks held,
which can of course result in deadlock in CONFIG_PREEMPT=y kernels when
rcu_read_unlock() invokes the scheduler. Scheduler invocations can happen
in the following situations: (1) The just-ended reader has been subjected
to RCU priority boosting, in which case rcu_read_unlock() must deboost,
(2) Interrupts were disabled across the call to rcu_read_unlock(), so
the quiescent state must be deferred, requiring a wakeup of the rcuc
kthread corresponding to the current CPU.
Now, the scheduler may hold one of its locks across rcu_read_unlock()
only if preemption has been disabled across the entire RCU read-side
critical section, which in the days prior to RCU flavor consolidation
meant that rcu_read_unlock() never needed to do wakeups. However, this
is no longer the case for any but the first rcu_read_unlock() following a
condition (e.g., preempted RCU reader) requiring special rcu_read_unlock()
attention. For example, an RCU read-side critical section might be
preempted, but preemption might be disabled across the rcu_read_unlock().
The rcu_read_unlock() must defer the quiescent state, and therefore
leaves the task queued on its leaf rcu_node structure. If a scheduler
interrupt occurs, the scheduler might well invoke rcu_read_unlock() with
one of its locks held. However, the preempted task is still queued, so
rcu_read_unlock() will attempt to defer the quiescent state once more.
When RCU core processing is carried out by RCU_SOFTIRQ, this works just
fine: The raise_softirq() function simply sets a bit in a per-CPU mask
and the RCU core processing will be undertaken upon return from interrupt.
Not so when RCU core processing is carried out by the rcuc kthread: In this
case, the required wakeup can result in deadlock.
The initial solution to this problem was to use set_tsk_need_resched() and
set_preempt_need_resched() to force a future context switch, which allows
rcu_preempt_note_context_switch() to report the deferred quiescent state
to RCU's core processing. Unfortunately for expedited grace periods,
there can be a significant delay between the call for a context switch
and the actual context switch.
This commit therefore introduces a ->deferred_qs flag to the task_struct
structure's rcu_special structure. This flag is initially false, and
is set to true by the first call to rcu_read_unlock() requiring special
attention, then finally reset back to false when the quiescent state is
finally reported. Then rcu_read_unlock() attempts full wakeups only when
->deferred_qs is false, that is, on the first rcu_read_unlock() requiring
special attention. Note that a chain of RCU readers linked by some other
sort of reader may find that a later rcu_read_unlock() is once again able
to do a full wakeup, courtesy of an intervening preemption:
rcu_read_lock();
/* preempted */
local_irq_disable();
rcu_read_unlock(); /* Can do full wakeup, sets ->deferred_qs. */
rcu_read_lock();
local_irq_enable();
preempt_disable()
rcu_read_unlock(); /* Cannot do full wakeup, ->deferred_qs set. */
rcu_read_lock();
preempt_enable();
/* preempted, >deferred_qs reset. */
local_irq_disable();
rcu_read_unlock(); /* Can again do full wakeup, sets ->deferred_qs. */
Such linked RCU readers do not yet seem to appear in the Linux kernel, and
it is probably best if they don't. However, RCU needs to handle them, and
some variations on this theme could make even raise_softirq() unsafe due to
the possibility of its doing a full wakeup. This commit therefore also
avoids invoking raise_softirq() when the ->deferred_qs set flag is set.

sheperding the effort.
Other than that, there are a few trivial changes"

Cgroup v1 implements the freezer controller, which provides an ability
to stop the workload in a cgroup and temporarily free up some
resources (cpu, io, network bandwidth and, potentially, memory)
for some other tasks. Cgroup v2 lacks this functionality.
This patch implements freezer for cgroup v2.
Cgroup v2 freezer tries to put tasks into a state similar to jobctl
stop. This means that tasks can be killed, ptraced (using
PTRACE_SEIZE*), and interrupted. It is possible to attach to
a frozen task, get some information (e.g. read registers) and detach.
It's also possible to migrate a frozen tasks to another cgroup.
This differs cgroup v2 freezer from cgroup v1 freezer, which mostly
tried to imitate the system-wide freezer. However uninterruptible
sleep is fine when all tasks are going to be frozen (hibernation case),
it's not the acceptable state for some subset of the system.
Cgroup v2 freezer is not supporting freezing kthreads.
If a non-root cgroup contains kthread, the cgroup still can be frozen,
but the kthread will remain running, the cgroup will be shown
as non-frozen, and the notification will not be delivered.
* PTRACE_ATTACH is not working because non-fatal signal delivery
is blocked in frozen state.
There are some interface differences between cgroup v1 and cgroup v2
freezer too, which are required to conform the cgroup v2 interface
design principles:
1) There is no separate controller, which has to be turned on:
the functionality is always available and is represented by
cgroup.freeze and cgroup.events cgroup control files.
2) The desired state is defined by the cgroup.freeze control file.
Any hierarchical configuration is allowed.
3) The interface is asynchronous. The actual state is available
using cgroup.events control file ("frozen" field). There are no
dedicated transitional states.
4) It's allowed to make any changes with the cgroup hierarchy
(create new cgroups, remove old cgroups, move tasks between cgroups)
no matter if some cgroups are frozen.

The rseq system call, when invoked with flags of "0" or
"RSEQ_FLAG_UNREGISTER" values, expects the rseq_len parameter to
be equal to sizeof(struct rseq), which is fixed-size and fixed-layout,
specified in uapi linux/rseq.h.
Expecting a fixed size for rseq_len is a design choice that ensures
multiple libraries and application defining __rseq_abi in the same
process agree on its exact size.
Considering that this size is and will always be the same value, there
is no point in saving this value within task_struct rseq_len. Remove
this field from task_struct.
No change in functionality intended.

Patch series "mm/kvm/vfio/ppc64: Migrate compound pages out of CMA
region", v8.
ppc64 uses the CMA area for the allocation of guest page table (hash
page table). We won't be able to start guest if we fail to allocate
hash page table. We have observed hash table allocation failure because
we failed to migrate pages out of CMA region because they were pinned.
This happen when we are using VFIO. VFIO on ppc64 pins the entire guest
RAM. If the guest RAM pages get allocated out of CMA region, we won't
be able to migrate those pages. The pages are also pinned for the
lifetime of the guest.
Currently we support migration of non-compound pages. With THP and with
the addition of hugetlb migration we can end up allocating compound
pages from CMA region. This patch series add support for migrating
compound pages.
This patch (of 4):
Add PF_MEMALLOC_NOCMA which make sure any allocation in that context is
marked non-movable and hence cannot be satisfied by CMA region.
This is useful with get_user_pages_longterm where we want to take a page
pin by migrating pages from CMA region. Marking the section
PF_MEMALLOC_NOCMA ensures that we avoid unnecessary page migration
later.

Compaction is inherently race-prone as a suitable page freed during
compaction can be allocated by any parallel task. This patch uses a
capture_control structure to isolate a page immediately when it is freed
by a direct compactor in the slow path of the page allocator. The
intent is to avoid redundant scanning.

Latency is only moderately affected but the devil is in the details. A
closer examination indicates that base page fault latency is reduced but
latency of huge pages is increased as it takes creater care to succeed.
Part of the "problem" is that allocation success rates are close to 100%
even when under pressure and compaction gets harder

Pull x86/pti update from Thomas Gleixner:
"Just a single change from the anti-performance departement:
- Add a new PR_SPEC_DISABLE_NOEXEC option which allows to apply the
speculation protections on a process without inheriting the state
on exec.
This remedies a situation where a Java-launcher has speculation
protections enabled because that's the default for JVMs which
causes the launched regular harmless processes to inherit the
protection state which results in unintended performance
degradation"
* 'x86-pti-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
x86/speculation: Add PR_SPEC_DISABLE_NOEXEC
This reverts commit 9da3f2b740.
It was well-intentioned, but wrong. Overriding the exception tables for
instructions for random reasons is just wrong, and that is what the new
code did.
It caused problems for tracing, and it caused problems for strncpy_from_user(),
because the new checks made perfectly valid use cases break, rather than
catch things that did bad things.
Unchecked user space accesses are a problem, but that's not a reason to
add invalid checks that then people have to work around with silly flags
(in this case, that 'kernel_uaccess_faults_ok' flag, which is just an
odd way to say "this commit was wrong" and was sprinked into random
places to hide the wrongness).
The real fix to unchecked user space accesses is to get rid of the
special "let's not check __get_user() and __put_user() at all" logic.
Make __{get|put}_user() be just aliases to the regular {get|put}_user()
functions, and make it impossible to access user space without having
the proper checks in places.
The raison d'être of the special double-underscore versions used to be
that the range check was expensive, and if you did multiple user
accesses, you'd do the range check up front (like the signal frame
handling code, for example). But SMAP (on x86) and PAN (on ARM) have
made that optimization pointless, because the _real_ expense is the "set
CPU flag to allow user space access".
Do let's not break the valid cases to catch invalid cases that shouldn't
even exist.

move_queued_task() synchronizes with task_rq_lock() as follows:

[S] ->on_rq = MIGRATING [L] rq = task_rq()
WMB (__set_task_cpu()) ACQUIRE (rq->lock);
[S] ->cpu = new_cpu [L] ->on_rq
where "[L] rq = task_rq()" is ordered before "ACQUIRE (rq->lock)" by an
address dependency and, in turn, "ACQUIRE (rq->lock)" is ordered before
"[L] ->on_rq" by the ACQUIRE itself.
Use READ_ONCE() to load ->cpu in task_rq() (c.f., task_cpu()) to honor
this address dependency. Also, mark the accesses to ->cpu and ->on_rq
with READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() to comply with the LKMM.

The current implementation of load tracking invariance scales the
contribution with current frequency and uarch performance (only for
utilization) of the CPU. One main result of this formula is that the
figures are capped by current capacity of CPU. Another one is that the
load_avg is not invariant because not scaled with uarch.
The util_avg of a periodic task that runs r time slots every p time slots
varies in the range :
U * (1-y^r)/(1-y^p) * y^i < Utilization < U * (1-y^r)/(1-y^p)
with U is the max util_avg value = SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE
At a lower capacity, the range becomes:
U * C * (1-y^r')/(1-y^p) * y^i' < Utilization < U * C * (1-y^r')/(1-y^p)
with C reflecting the compute capacity ratio between current capacity and
max capacity.
so C tries to compensate changes in (1-y^r') but it can't be accurate.
Instead of scaling the contribution value of PELT algo, we should scale the
running time. The PELT signal aims to track the amount of computation of
tasks and/or rq so it seems more correct to scale the running time to
reflect the effective amount of computation done since the last update.
In order to be fully invariant, we need to apply the same amount of
running time and idle time whatever the current capacity. Because running
at lower capacity implies that the task will run longer, we have to ensure
that the same amount of idle time will be applied when system becomes idle
and no idle time has been "stolen". But reaching the maximum utilization
value (SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE) means that the task is seen as an
always-running task whatever the capacity of the CPU (even at max compute
capacity). In this case, we can discard this "stolen" idle times which
becomes meaningless.
In order to achieve this time scaling, a new clock_pelt is created per rq.
The increase of this clock scales with current capacity when something
is running on rq and synchronizes with clock_task when rq is idle. With
this mechanism, we ensure the same running and idle time whatever the
current capacity. This also enables to simplify the pelt algorithm by
removing all references of uarch and frequency and applying the same
contribution to utilization and loads. Furthermore, the scaling is done
only once per update of clock (update_rq_clock_task()) instead of during
each update of sched_entities and cfs/rt/dl_rq of the rq like the current
implementation. This is interesting when cgroup are involved as shown in
the results below:
On a hikey (octo Arm64 platform).
Performance cpufreq governor and only shallowest c-state to remove variance
generated by those power features so we only track the impact of pelt algo.
each test runs 16 times:

level2 5.063(+/- 9.83%) 4.928(+/- 9.66%) -2.66%
Then, the responsiveness of PELT is improved when CPU is not running at max
capacity with this new algorithm. I have put below some examples of
duration to reach some typical load values according to the capacity of the
CPU with current implementation and with this patch. These values has been
computed based on the geometric series and the half period value:
Util (%) max capacity half capacity(mainline) half capacity(w/ patch)
972 (95%) 138ms not reachable 276ms
486 (47.5%) 30ms 138ms 60ms
256 (25%) 13ms 32ms 26ms
On my hikey (octo Arm64 platform) with schedutil governor, the time to
reach max OPP when starting from a null utilization, decreases from 223ms
with current scale invariance down to 121ms with the new algorithm.

atomic_t variables are currently used to implement reference
counters with the following properties:
- counter is initialized to 1 using atomic_set()
- a resource is freed upon counter reaching zero
- once counter reaches zero, its further
increments aren't allowed
- counter schema uses basic atomic operations
(set, inc, inc_not_zero, dec_and_test, etc.)
Such atomic variables should be converted to a newly provided
refcount_t type and API that prevents accidental counter overflows
and underflows. This is important since overflows and underflows
can lead to use-after-free situation and be exploitable.
The variable task_struct.stack_refcount is used as pure reference counter.
Convert it to refcount_t and fix up the operations.
** Important note for maintainers:
Some functions from refcount_t API defined in lib/refcount.c
have different memory ordering guarantees than their atomic
counterparts.
The full comparison can be seen in
https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/11/15/57 and it is hopefully soon
in state to be merged to the documentation tree.
Normally the differences should not matter since refcount_t provides
enough guarantees to satisfy the refcounting use cases, but in
some rare cases it might matter.
Please double check that you don't have some undocumented
memory guarantees for this variable usage.
For the task_struct.stack_refcount it might make a difference
in following places:
- try_get_task_stack(): increment in refcount_inc_not_zero() only
guarantees control dependency on success vs. fully ordered
atomic counterpart
- put_task_stack(): decrement in refcount_dec_and_test() only
provides RELEASE ordering and control dependency on success
vs. fully ordered atomic counterpart

With the default SPEC_STORE_BYPASS_SECCOMP/SPEC_STORE_BYPASS_PRCTL mode,
the TIF_SSBD bit will be inherited when a new task is fork'ed or cloned.
It will also remain when a new program is execve'ed.
Only certain class of applications (like Java) that can run on behalf of
multiple users on a single thread will require disabling speculative store
bypass for security purposes. Those applications will call prctl(2) at
startup time to disable SSB. They won't rely on the fact the SSB might have
been disabled. Other applications that don't need SSBD will just move on
without checking if SSBD has been turned on or not.
The fact that the TIF_SSBD is inherited across execve(2) boundary will
cause performance of applications that don't need SSBD but their
predecessors have SSBD on to be unwittingly impacted especially if they
write to memory a lot.
To remedy this problem, a new PR_SPEC_DISABLE_NOEXEC argument for the
PR_SET_SPECULATION_CTRL option of prctl(2) is added to allow applications
to specify that the SSBD feature bit on the task structure should be
cleared whenever a new program is being execve'ed.

A UMH process which is created by the fork_usermode_blob() such as
bpfilter needs to release members of the umh_info when process is
terminated.
But the do_exit() does not release members of the umh_info. hence module
which uses UMH needs own code to detect whether UMH process is
terminated or not.
But this implementation needs extra code for checking the status of
UMH process. it eventually makes the code more complex.
The new PF_UMH flag is added and it is used to identify UMH processes.
The exit_umh() does not release members of the umh_info.
Hence umh_info->cleanup callback should release both members of the
umh_info and the private data.

CONFIG_RESCTRL is too generic. The final goal is to have a generic
option called like this which is selected by the arch-specific ones
CONFIG_X86_RESCTRL and CONFIG_ARM64_RESCTRL. The generic one will
cover the resctrl filesystem and other generic and shared bits of
functionality.
