Pull execve updates from Eric Biederman:
"During the development of v5.7 I ran into bugs and quality of
implementation issues related to exec that could not be easily fixed
because of the way exec is implemented. So I have been diggin into
exec and cleaning up what I can.
This cycle I have been looking at different ideas and different
implementations to see what is possible to improve exec, and cleaning
the way exec interfaces with in kernel users. Only cleaning up the
interfaces of exec with rest of the kernel has managed to stabalize
and make it through review in time for v5.9-rc1 resulting in 2 sets of
changes this cycle.
- Implement kernel_execve
- Make the user mode driver code a better citizen
With kernel_execve the code size got a little larger as the copying of
parameters from userspace and copying of parameters from userspace is
now separate. The good news is kernel threads no longer need to play
games with set_fs to use exec. Which when combined with the rest of
Christophs set_fs changes should security bugs with set_fs much more
difficult"

To improve the general usefulness of the IRQ state trace events with
KCSAN enabled, save and restore the trace information when entering and
exiting the KCSAN runtime as well as when generating a KCSAN report.
Without this, reporting the IRQ trace events (whether via a KCSAN report
or outside of KCSAN via a lockdep report) is rather useless due to
continuously being touched by KCSAN. This is because if KCSAN is
enabled, every instrumented memory access causes changes to IRQ trace
events (either by KCSAN disabling/enabling interrupts or taking
report_lock when generating a report).
Before "lockdep: Prepare for NMI IRQ state tracking", KCSAN avoided
touching the IRQ trace events via raw_local_irq_save/restore() and
lockdep_off/on().

A sequence counter write side critical section must be protected by some
form of locking to serialize writers. A plain seqcount_t does not
contain the information of which lock must be held when entering a write
side critical section.
Use the new seqcount_spinlock_t data type, which allows to associate a
spinlock with the sequence counter. This enables lockdep to verify that
the spinlock used for writer serialization is held when the write side
critical section is entered.
If lockdep is disabled this lock association is compiled out and has
neither storage size nor runtime overhead.

RT tasks by default run at the highest capacity/performance level. When
uclamp is selected this default behavior is retained by enforcing the
requested uclamp.min (p->uclamp_req[UCLAMP_MIN]) of the RT tasks to be
uclamp_none(UCLAMP_MAX), which is SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE; the maximum
value.
This is also referred to as 'the default boost value of RT tasks'.
See commit 1a00d99997 ("sched/uclamp: Set default clamps for RT tasks").
On battery powered devices, it is desired to control this default
(currently hardcoded) behavior at runtime to reduce energy consumed by
RT tasks.
For example, a mobile device manufacturer where big.LITTLE architecture
is dominant, the performance of the little cores varies across SoCs, and
on high end ones the big cores could be too power hungry.
Given the diversity of SoCs, the new knob allows manufactures to tune
the best performance/power for RT tasks for the particular hardware they
run on.
They could opt to further tune the value when the user selects
a different power saving mode or when the device is actively charging.
The runtime aspect of it further helps in creating a single kernel image
that can be run on multiple devices that require different tuning.
Keep in mind that a lot of RT tasks in the system are created by the
kernel. On Android for instance I can see over 50 RT tasks, only
a handful of which created by the Android framework.
To control the default behavior globally by system admins and device
integrator, introduce the new sysctl_sched_uclamp_util_min_rt_default
to change the default boost value of the RT tasks.
I anticipate this to be mostly in the form of modifying the init script
of a particular device.
To avoid polluting the fast path with unnecessary code, the approach
taken is to synchronously do the update by traversing all the existing
tasks in the system. This could race with a concurrent fork(), which is
dealt with by introducing sched_post_fork() function which will ensure
the racy fork will get the right update applied.
Tested on Juno-r2 in combination with the RT capacity awareness [1].
By default an RT task will go to the highest capacity CPU and run at the
maximum frequency, which is particularly energy inefficient on high end
mobile devices because the biggest core[s] are 'huge' and power hungry.
With this patch the RT task can be controlled to run anywhere by
default, and doesn't cause the frequency to be maximum all the time.
Yet any task that really needs to be boosted can easily escape this
default behavior by modifying its requested uclamp.min value
(p->uclamp_req[UCLAMP_MIN]) via sched_setattr() syscall.

Add a bare tracepoint trace_sched_update_nr_running_tp which tracks
->nr_running CPU's rq. This is used to accurately trace this data and
provide a visualization of scheduler imbalances in, for example, the
form of a heat map. The tracepoint is accessed by loading an external
kernel module. An example module (forked from Qais' module and including
the pelt related tracepoints) can be found at:
https://github.com/auldp/tracepoints-helpers.git
A script to turn the trace-cmd report output into a heatmap plot can be
found at:
https://github.com/jirvoz/plot-nr-running
The tracepoints are added to add_nr_running() and sub_nr_running() which
are in kernel/sched/sched.h. In order to avoid CREATE_TRACE_POINTS in
the header a wrapper call is used and the trace/events/sched.h include
is moved before sched.h in kernel/sched/core.

The recent commit:
c6e7bd7afa ("sched/core: Optimize ttwu() spinning on p->on_cpu")
moved these lines in ttwu():
p->sched_contributes_to_load = !!task_contributes_to_load(p);
p->state = TASK_WAKING;
up before:
smp_cond_load_acquire(&p->on_cpu, !VAL);
into the 'p->on_rq == 0' block, with the thinking that once we hit
schedule() the current task cannot change it's ->state anymore. And
while this is true, it is both incorrect and flawed.
It is incorrect in that we need at least an ACQUIRE on 'p->on_rq == 0'
to avoid weak hardware from re-ordering things for us. This can fairly
easily be achieved by relying on the control-dependency already in
place.
The second problem, which makes the flaw in the original argument, is
that while schedule() will not change prev->state, it will read it a
number of times (arguably too many times since it's marked volatile).
The previous condition 'p->on_cpu == 0' was sufficient because that
indicates schedule() has completed, and will no longer read
prev->state. So now the trick is to make this same true for the (much)
earlier 'prev->on_rq == 0' case.
Furthermore, in order to make the ordering stick, the 'prev->on_rq = 0'
assignment needs to he a RELEASE, but adding additional ordering to
schedule() is an unwelcome proposition at the best of times, doubly so
for mere accounting.
Luckily we can push the prev->state load up before rq->lock, with the
only caveat that we then have to re-read the state after. However, we
know that if it changed, we no longer have to worry about the blocking
path. This gives us the required ordering, if we block, we did the
prev->state load before an (effective) smp_mb() and the p->on_rq store
needs not change.
With this we end up with the effective ordering:
LOAD p->state LOAD-ACQUIRE p->on_rq == 0
MB
STORE p->on_rq, 0 STORE p->state, TASK_WAKING
which ensures the TASK_WAKING store happens after the prev->state
load, and all is well again.

SCHED_FIFO (or any static priority scheduler) is a broken scheduler
model; it is fundamentally incapable of resource management, the one
thing an OS is actually supposed to do.
It is impossible to compose static priority workloads. One cannot take
two well designed and functional static priority workloads and mash
them together and still expect them to work.
Therefore it doesn't make sense to expose the priority field; the
kernel is fundamentally incapable of setting a sensible value, it
needs systems knowledge that it doesn't have.
Take away sched_setschedule() / sched_setattr() from modules and
replace them with:
- sched_set_fifo(p); create a FIFO task (at prio 50)
- sched_set_fifo_low(p); create a task higher than NORMAL,
which ends up being a FIFO task at prio 1.
- sched_set_normal(p, nice); (re)set the task to normal
This stops the proliferation of randomly chosen, and irrelevant, FIFO
priorities that dont't really mean anything anyway.
The system administrator/integrator, whoever has insight into the
actual system design and requirements (userspace) can set-up
appropriate priorities if and when needed.

An interesting thing happened when a guest Linux instance took a machine
check. The VMM unmapped the bad page from guest physical space and
passed the machine check to the guest.
Linux took all the normal actions to offline the page from the process
that was using it. But then guest Linux crashed because it said there
was a second machine check inside the kernel with this stack trace:
do_memory_failure
set_mce_nospec
set_memory_uc
_set_memory_uc
change_page_attr_set_clr
cpa_flush
clflush_cache_range_opt
This was odd, because a CLFLUSH instruction shouldn't raise a machine
check (it isn't consuming the data). Further investigation showed that
the VMM had passed in another machine check because is appeared that the
guest was accessing the bad page.
Fix is to check the scope of the poison by checking the MCi_MISC register.
If the entire page is affected, then unmap the page. If only part of the
page is affected, then mark the page as uncacheable.
This assumes that VMMs will do the logical thing and pass in the "whole
page scope" via the MCi_MISC register (since they unmapped the entire
page).

This change extends kcov remote coverage support to allow collecting
coverage from soft interrupts in addition to kernel background threads.
To collect coverage from code that is executed in softirq context, a part
of that code has to be annotated with kcov_remote_start/stop() in a
similar way as how it is done for global kernel background threads. Then
the handle used for the annotations has to be passed to the
KCOV_REMOTE_ENABLE ioctl.
Internally this patch adjusts the __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc() compiler

PF_LESS_THROTTLE exists for loop-back nfsd (and a similar need in the
loop block driver and callers of prctl(PR_SET_IO_FLUSHER)), where a
daemon needs to write to one bdi (the final bdi) in order to free up
writes queued to another bdi (the client bdi).
The daemon sets PF_LESS_THROTTLE and gets a larger allowance of dirty
pages, so that it can still dirty pages after other processses have been
throttled. The purpose of this is to avoid deadlock that happen when
the PF_LESS_THROTTLE process must write for any dirty pages to be freed,
but it is being thottled and cannot write.
This approach was designed when all threads were blocked equally,
independently on which device they were writing to, or how fast it was.
Since that time the writeback algorithm has changed substantially with
different threads getting different allowances based on non-trivial
heuristics. This means the simple "add 25%" heuristic is no longer
reliable.
The important issue is not that the daemon needs a *larger* dirty page
allowance, but that it needs a *private* dirty page allowance, so that
dirty pages for the "client" bdi that it is helping to clear (the bdi
for an NFS filesystem or loop block device etc) do not affect the
throttling of the daemon writing to the "final" bdi.
This patch changes the heuristic so that the task is not throttled when
the bdi it is writing to has a dirty page count below below (or equal
to) the free-run threshold for that bdi. This ensures it will always be
able to have some pages in flight, and so will not deadlock.
In a steady-state, it is expected that PF_LOCAL_THROTTLE tasks might
still be throttled by global threshold, but that is acceptable as it is
only the deadlock state that is interesting for this flag.
This approach of "only throttle when target bdi is busy" is consistent
with the other use of PF_LESS_THROTTLE in current_may_throttle(), were
it causes attention to be focussed only on the target bdi.
So this patch
- renames PF_LESS_THROTTLE to PF_LOCAL_THROTTLE,
- removes the 25% bonus that that flag gives, and
- If PF_LOCAL_THROTTLE is set, don't delay at all unless the
global and the local free-run thresholds are exceeded.
Note that previously realtime threads were treated the same as
PF_LESS_THROTTLE threads. This patch does *not* change the behvaiour
for real-time threads, so it is now different from the behaviour of nfsd
and loop tasks. I don't know what is wanted for realtime.

The recent commit: 90b5363acd ("sched: Clean up scheduler_ipi()")
got smp_call_function_single_async() subtly wrong. Even though it will
return -EBUSY when trying to re-use a csd, that condition is not
atomic and still requires external serialization.
The change in ttwu_queue_remote() got this wrong.
While on first reading ttwu_queue_remote() has an atomic test-and-set
that appears to serialize the use, the matching 'release' is not in
the right place to actually guarantee this serialization.
The actual race is vs the sched_ttwu_pending() call in the idle loop;
that can run the wakeup-list without consuming the CSD.
Instead of trying to chain the lists, merge them.

Because RCU does not watch exception early-entry/late-exit, idle-loop,
or CPU-hotplug execution, protection of tracing and BPF operations is
needlessly complicated. This commit therefore adds a variant of
Tasks RCU that:
o Has explicit read-side markers to allow finite grace periods in
the face of in-kernel loops for PREEMPT=n builds. These markers
are rcu_read_lock_trace() and rcu_read_unlock_trace().
o Protects code in the idle loop, exception entry/exit, and
CPU-hotplug code paths. In this respect, RCU-tasks trace is
similar to SRCU, but with lighter-weight readers.
o Avoids expensive read-side instruction, having overhead similar
to that of Preemptible RCU.
There are of course downsides:
o The grace-period code can send IPIs to CPUs, even when those
CPUs are in the idle loop or in nohz_full userspace. This is
mitigated by later commits.
o It is necessary to scan the full tasklist, much as for Tasks RCU.
o There is a single callback queue guarded by a single lock,
again, much as for Tasks RCU. However, those early use cases
that request multiple grace periods in quick succession are
expected to do so from a single task, which makes the single
lock almost irrelevant. If needed, multiple callback queues
can be provided using any number of schemes.
Perhaps most important, this variant of RCU does not affect the vanilla
flavors, rcu_preempt and rcu_sched. The fact that RCU Tasks Trace
readers can operate from idle, offline, and exception entry/exit in no
way enables rcu_preempt and rcu_sched readers to do so.
The memory ordering was outlined here:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200319034030.GX3199@paulmck-ThinkPad-P72/

The ->rcu_read_unlock_special.b.deferred_qs field is set to true in
rcu_read_unlock_special() but never set to false. This is not
particularly useful, so this commit removes this field.
The only possible justification for this field is to ease debugging
of RCU deferred quiscent states, but the combination of the other
->rcu_read_unlock_special fields plus ->rcu_blocked_node and of course
->rcu_read_lock_nesting should cover debugging needs. And if this last
proves incorrect, this patch can always be reverted, along with the
required setting of ->rcu_read_unlock_special.b.deferred_qs to false
in rcu_preempt_deferred_qs_irqrestore().

Pull exec/proc updates from Eric Biederman:
"This contains two significant pieces of work: the work to sort out
proc_flush_task, and the work to solve a deadlock between strace and
exec.
Fixing proc_flush_task so that it no longer requires a persistent
mount makes improvements to proc possible. The removal of the
persistent mount solves an old regression that that caused the hidepid
mount option to only work on remount not on mount. The regression was
found and reported by the Android folks. This further allows Alexey
Gladkov's work making proc mount options specific to an individual
mount of proc to move forward.
The work on exec starts solving a long standing issue with exec that
it takes mutexes of blocking userspace applications, which makes exec
extremely deadlock prone. For the moment this adds a second mutex with
a narrower scope that handles all of the easy cases. Which makes the
tricky cases easy to spot. With a little luck the code to solve those
deadlocks will be ready by next merge window"

...
Replace the 32bit exec_id with a 64bit exec_id to make it impossible
to wrap the exec_id counter. With care an attacker can cause exec_id
wrap and send arbitrary signals to a newly exec'd parent. This
bypasses the signal sending checks if the parent changes their
credentials during exec.
The severity of this problem can been seen that in my limited testing
of a 32bit exec_id it can take as little as 19s to exec 65536 times.
Which means that it can take as little as 14 days to wrap a 32bit
exec_id. Adam Zabrocki has succeeded wrapping the self_exe_id in 7
days. Even my slower timing is in the uptime of a typical server.
Which means self_exec_id is simply a speed bump today, and if exec
gets noticably faster self_exec_id won't even be a speed bump.
Extending self_exec_id to 64bits introduces a problem on 32bit
architectures where reading self_exec_id is no longer atomic and can
take two read instructions. Which means that is is possible to hit
a window where the read value of exec_id does not match the written
value. So with very lucky timing after this change this still
remains expoiltable.
I have updated the update of exec_id on exec to use WRITE_ONCE
and the read of exec_id in do_notify_parent to use READ_ONCE
to make it clear that there is no locking between these two
locations.

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The main changes in this cycle are:
- Various NUMA scheduling updates: harmonize the load-balancer and
NUMA placement logic to not work against each other. The intended
result is better locality, better utilization and fewer migrations.
- Introduce Thermal Pressure tracking and optimizations, to improve
task placement on thermally overloaded systems.
- Implement frequency invariant scheduler accounting on (some) x86
CPUs. This is done by observing and sampling the 'recent' CPU
frequency average at ~tick boundaries. The CPU provides this data
via the APERF/MPERF MSRs. This hopefully makes our capacity
estimates more precise and keeps tasks on the same CPU better even
if it might seem overloaded at a lower momentary frequency. (As
usual, turbo mode is a complication that we resolve by observing
the maximum frequency and renormalizing to it.)
- Add asymmetric CPU capacity wakeup scan to improve capacity
utilization on asymmetric topologies. (big.LITTLE systems)
- PSI fixes and optimizations.
- RT scheduling capacity awareness fixes & improvements.

Set current->irq_config = 1 for hrtimers which are not marked to expire in
hard interrupt context during hrtimer_init(). These timers will expire in
softirq context on PREEMPT_RT.
Setting this allows lockdep to differentiate these timers. If a timer is
marked to expire in hard interrupt context then the timer callback is not
supposed to acquire a regular spinlock instead of a raw_spinlock in the
expiry callback.

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.

The task->flags is a 32-bits flag, in which 31 bits have already been
consumed. So it is hardly to introduce other new per process flag.
Currently there're still enough spaces in the bit-field section of
task_struct, so we can define the memstall state as a single bit in
task_struct instead.
This patch also removes an out-of-date comment pointed by Matthew.

Now that runnable_load_avg has been removed, we can replace it by a new
signal that will highlight the runnable pressure on a cfs_rq. This signal
track the waiting time of tasks on rq and can help to better define the
state of rqs.
At now, only util_avg is used to define the state of a rq:
A rq with more that around 80% of utilization and more than 1 tasks is
considered as overloaded.
But the util_avg signal of a rq can become temporaly low after that a task
migrated onto another rq which can bias the classification of the rq.
When tasks compete for the same rq, their runnable average signal will be
higher than util_avg as it will include the waiting time and we can use
this signal to better classify cfs_rqs.
The new runnable_avg will track the runnable time of a task which simply
adds the waiting time to the running time. The runnable _avg of cfs_rq
will be the /Sum of se's runnable_avg and the runnable_avg of group entity
will follow the one of the rq similarly to util_avg.

Pull thread management updates from Christian Brauner:
"Sargun Dhillon over the last cycle has worked on the pidfd_getfd()
syscall.
This syscall allows for the retrieval of file descriptors of a process
based on its pidfd. A task needs to have ptrace_may_access()
permissions with PTRACE_MODE_ATTACH_REALCREDS (suggested by Oleg and
Andy) on the target.
One of the main use-cases is in combination with seccomp's user
notification feature. As a reminder, seccomp's user notification
feature was made available in v5.0. It allows a task to retrieve a
file descriptor for its seccomp filter. The file descriptor is usually
handed of to a more privileged supervising process. The supervisor can
then listen for syscall events caught by the seccomp filter of the
supervisee and perform actions in lieu of the supervisee, usually
emulating syscalls. pidfd_getfd() is needed to expand its uses.
There are currently two major users that wait on pidfd_getfd() and one
future user:
- Netflix, Sargun said, is working on a service mesh where users
should be able to connect to a dns-based VIP. When a user connects
to e.g. 1.2.3.4:80 that runs e.g. service "foo" they will be
redirected to an envoy process. This service mesh uses seccomp user
notifications and pidfd to intercept all connect calls and instead
of connecting them to 1.2.3.4:80 connects them to e.g.
127.0.0.1:8080.
- LXD uses the seccomp notifier heavily to intercept and emulate
mknod() and mount() syscalls for unprivileged containers/processes.
With pidfd_getfd() more uses-cases e.g. bridging socket connections
will be possible.
- The patchset has also seen some interest from the browser corner.
Right now, Firefox is using a SECCOMP_RET_TRAP sandbox managed by a
broker process. In the future glibc will start blocking all signals
during dlopen() rendering this type of sandbox impossible. Hence,
in the future Firefox will switch to a seccomp-user-nofication
based sandbox which also makes use of file descriptor retrieval.
The thread for this can be found at
https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2019-12/msg00079.html
With pidfd_getfd() it is e.g. possible to bridge socket connections
for the supervisee (binding to a privileged port) and taking actions
on file descriptors on behalf of the supervisee in general.
Sargun's first version was using an ioctl on pidfds but various people
pushed for it to be a proper syscall which he duely implemented as
well over various review cycles. Selftests are of course included.
I've also added instructions how to deal with merge conflicts below.
There's also a small fix coming from the kernel mentee project to
correctly annotate struct sighand_struct with __rcu to fix various
sparse warnings. We've received a few more such fixes and even though
they are mostly trivial I've decided to postpone them until after -rc1
since they came in rather late and I don't want to risk introducing
build warnings.
Finally, there's a new prctl() command PR_{G,S}ET_IO_FLUSHER which is
needed to avoid allocation recursions triggerable by storage drivers
that have userspace parts that run in the IO path (e.g. dm-multipath,
iscsi, etc). These allocation recursions deadlock the device.
The new prctl() allows such privileged userspace components to avoid
allocation recursions by setting the PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO and
PF_LESS_THROTTLE flags. The patch carries the necessary acks from the
relevant maintainers and is routed here as part of prctl()
thread-management."

It has been reported by Google that rseq is not behaving properly
with respect to clone when CLONE_VM is used without CLONE_THREAD.
It keeps the prior thread's rseq TLS registered when the TLS of the
thread has moved, so the kernel can corrupt the TLS of the parent.
The approach of clearing the per task-struct rseq registration
on clone with CLONE_THREAD flag is incomplete. It does not cover
the use-case of clone with CLONE_VM set, but without CLONE_THREAD.
Here is the rationale for unregistering rseq on clone with CLONE_VM
flag set:
1) CLONE_THREAD requires CLONE_SIGHAND, which requires CLONE_VM to be
set. Therefore, just checking for CLONE_VM covers all CLONE_THREAD
uses. There is no point in checking for both CLONE_THREAD and
CLONE_VM,
2) There is the possibility of an unlikely scenario where CLONE_SETTLS
is used without CLONE_VM. In order to be an issue, it would require
that the rseq TLS is in a shared memory area.
I do not plan on adding CLONE_SETTLS to the set of clone flags which
unregister RSEQ, because it would require that we also unregister RSEQ
on set_thread_area(2) and arch_prctl(2) ARCH_SET_FS for completeness.
So rather than doing a partial solution, it appears better to let
user-space explicitly perform rseq unregistration across clone if
needed in scenarios where CLONE_VM is not set.

Patch series " kcov: collect coverage from usb and vhost", v3.
This patchset extends kcov to allow collecting coverage from backgound
kernel threads. This extension requires custom annotations for each of
the places where coverage collection is desired. This patchset
implements this for hub events in the USB subsystem and for vhost
workers. See the first patch description for details about the kcov
extension. The other two patches apply this kcov extension to USB and
vhost.
Examples of other subsystems that might potentially benefit from this
when custom annotations are added (the list is based on
process_one_work() callers for bugs recently reported by syzbot):
1. fs: writeback wb_workfn() worker,
2. net: addrconf_dad_work()/addrconf_verify_work() workers,
3. net: neigh_periodic_work() worker,
4. net/p9: p9_write_work()/p9_read_work() workers,
5. block: blk_mq_run_work_fn() worker.
These patches have been used to enable coverage-guided USB fuzzing with
syzkaller for the last few years, see the details here:
https://github.com/google/syzkaller/blob/master/docs/linux/external_fuzzing_usb.md
This patchset has been pushed to the public Linux kernel Gerrit
instance:
https://linux-review.googlesource.com/c/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux/+/1524
This patch (of 3):
Add background thread coverage collection ability to kcov.
With KCOV_ENABLE coverage is collected only for syscalls that are issued
from the current process. With KCOV_REMOTE_ENABLE it's possible to
collect coverage for arbitrary parts of the kernel code, provided that
those parts are annotated with kcov_remote_start()/kcov_remote_stop().
This allows to collect coverage from two types of kernel background
threads: the global ones, that are spawned during kernel boot in a
limited number of instances (e.g. one USB hub_event() worker thread is
spawned per USB HCD); and the local ones, that are spawned when a user
interacts with some kernel interface (e.g. vhost workers).
To enable collecting coverage from a global background thread, a unique
global handle must be assigned and passed to the corresponding
kcov_remote_start() call. Then a userspace process can pass a list of
such handles to the KCOV_REMOTE_ENABLE ioctl in the handles array field
of the kcov_remote_arg struct. This will attach the used kcov device to
the code sections, that are referenced by those handles.
Since there might be many local background threads spawned from
different userspace processes, we can't use a single global handle per
annotation. Instead, the userspace process passes a non-zero handle
through the common_handle field of the kcov_remote_arg struct. This
common handle gets saved to the kcov_handle field in the current
task_struct and needs to be passed to the newly spawned threads via
custom annotations. Those threads should in turn be annotated with
kcov_remote_start()/kcov_remote_stop().
Internally kcov stores handles as u64 integers. The top byte of a
handle is used to denote the id of a subsystem that this handle belongs
to, and the lower 4 bytes are used to denote the id of a thread instance
within that subsystem. A reserved value 0 is used as a subsystem id for
common handles as they don't belong to a particular subsystem. The
bytes 4-7 are currently reserved and must be zero. In the future the
number of bytes used for the subsystem or handle ids might be increased.
When a particular userspace process collects coverage by via a common
handle, kcov will collect coverage for each code section that is
annotated to use the common handle obtained as kcov_handle from the
current task_struct. However non common handles allow to collect
coverage selectively from different subsystems.

The futex exit handling relies on PF_ flags. That's suboptimal as it
requires a smp_mb() and an ugly lock/unlock of the exiting tasks pi_lock in
the middle of do_exit() to enforce the observability of PF_EXITING in the
futex code.
Add a futex_state member to task_struct and convert the PF_EXITPIDONE logic
over to the new state. The PF_EXITING dependency will be cleaned up in a

This adds support for io-wq, a smaller and specialized thread pool
implementation. This is meant to replace workqueues for io_uring. Among
the reasons for this addition are:
- We can assign memory context smarter and more persistently if we
manage the life time of threads.
- We can drop various work-arounds we have in io_uring, like the
async_list.
- We can implement hashed work insertion, to manage concurrency of
buffered writes without needing a) an extra workqueue, or b)
needlessly making the concurrency of said workqueue very low
which hurts performance of multiple buffered file writers.
- We can implement cancel through signals, for cancelling
interruptible work like read/write (or send/recv) to/from sockets.
- We need the above cancel for being able to assign and use file tables
from a process.
- We can implement a more thorough cancel operation in general.
- We need it to move towards a syslet/threadlet model for even faster
async execution. For that we need to take ownership of the used
threads.
This list is just off the top of my head. Performance should be the
same, or better, at least that's what I've seen in my testing. io-wq
supports basic NUMA functionality, setting up a pool per node.
io-wq hooks up to the scheduler schedule in/out just like workqueue
and uses that to drive the need for more/less workers.

In order to compute the kcpustat delta on a nohz CPU, we'll need to
fetch the task running on that target. Checking that its vtime
state snapshot actually refers to the relevant target involves recording
that CPU under the seqcount locked on task switch.
This is a step toward making kcpustat moving forward on full nohz CPUs.

Preempting from IRQ-return means that the task has its PSTATE saved
on the stack, which will get restored when the task is resumed and does
the actual IRQ return.
However, enabling some CPU features requires modifying the PSTATE. This
means that, if a task was scheduled out during an IRQ-return before all
CPU features are enabled, the task might restore a PSTATE that does not
include the feature enablement changes once scheduled back in.
* Task 1:
PAN == 0 ---| |---------------
| |<- return from IRQ, PSTATE.PAN = 0
| <- IRQ |
+--------+ <- preempt() +--
^
|
reschedule Task 1, PSTATE.PAN == 1
* Init:
--------------------+------------------------
^
|
enable_cpu_features
set PSTATE.PAN on all CPUs
Worse than this, since PSTATE is untouched when task switching is done,
a task missing the new bits in PSTATE might affect another task, if both
do direct calls to schedule() (outside of IRQ/exception contexts).
Fix this by preventing preemption on IRQ-return until features are
enabled on all CPUs.
This way the only PSTATE values that are saved on the stack are from
synchronous exceptions. These are expected to be fatal this early, the
exception is BRK for WARN_ON(), but as this uses do_debug_exception()
which keeps IRQs masked, it shouldn't call schedule().

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.

- 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.

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.

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

As a first step, move the cpu_timers list head array into the new struct

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"

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
- Remove the unused per rq load array and all its infrastructure, by
Dietmar Eggemann.
- Add utilization clamping support by Patrick Bellasi. This is a
refinement of the energy aware scheduling framework with support for
boosting of interactive and capping of background workloads: to make
sure critical GUI threads get maximum frequency ASAP, and to make
sure background processing doesn't unnecessarily move to cpufreq
governor to higher frequencies and less energy efficient CPU modes.
- Add the bare minimum of tracepoints required for LISA EAS regression
testing, by Qais Yousef - which allows automated testing of various
power management features, including energy aware scheduling.
- Restructure the former tsk_nr_cpus_allowed() facility that the -rt
kernel used to modify the scheduler's CPU affinity logic such as
migrate_disable() - introduce the task->cpus_ptr value instead of
taking the address of &task->cpus_allowed directly - by Sebastian
Andrzej Siewior.
- Misc optimizations, fixes, cleanups and small enhancements - see the
Git log for details.

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
and by default their utilization can have any value in the
[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.
Add a privileged interface to define a system default configuration via:
/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.

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.

Pull audit updates from Paul Moore:
"A lucky 13 audit patches for v5.1.
Despite the rather large diffstat, most of the changes are from two
bug fix patches that move code from one Kconfig option to another.
Beyond that bit of churn, the remaining changes are largely cleanups
and bug-fixes as we slowly march towards container auditing. It isn't
all boring though, we do have a couple of new things: file
capabilities v3 support, and expanded support for filtering on
filesystems to solve problems with remote filesystems.
All changes pass the audit-testsuite. Please merge for v5.1"

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.
