Introduce distinct struct balance_callback instead of performing function
pointer casting which will trip CFI. Avoids warnings as found by Clang's
future -Wcast-function-type-strict option:
In file included from kernel/sched/core.c:84:
kernel/sched/sched.h:1755:15: warning: cast from 'void (*)(struct rq *)' to 'void (*)(struct callback_head *)' converts to incompatible function type [-Wcast-function-type-strict]
head->func = (void (*)(struct callback_head *))func;
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
No binary differences result from this change.
This patch is a cleanup based on Brad Spengler/PaX Team's modifications
to sched code in their last public patch of grsecurity/PaX based on my
understanding of the code. Changes or omissions from the original code
are mine and don't reflect the original grsecurity/PaX code.

weight = bitmap_weight(tmp, nbits);
bitmap_free(tmp);
with a single bitmap_weight_and() call.
From me:
cpumask: repair cpumask_check()
After switching cpumask to use nr_cpu_ids, cpumask_check() started
generating many false-positive warnings. This series fixes it.

Task state is fundamentally a bitmask; direct comparisons are probably
not working as intended. Specifically the normal wait-state have
a number of possible modifiers:
TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE: TASK_WAKEKILL, TASK_NOLOAD, TASK_FREEZABLE
TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE: TASK_FREEZABLE
Specifically, the addition of TASK_FREEZABLE wrecked
__wait_is_interruptible(). This however led to an audit of direct
comparisons yielding the rest of the changes.

To further exploit spatial locality, the aging prefers to walk page tables
to search for young PTEs and promote hot pages. A kill switch will be
added in the next patch to disable this behavior. When disabled, the
aging relies on the rmap only.
NB: this behavior has nothing similar with the page table scanning in the
2.4 kernel [1], which searches page tables for old PTEs, adds cold pages
to swapcache and unmaps them.
To avoid confusion, the term "iteration" specifically means the traversal
of an entire mm_struct list; the term "walk" will be applied to page
tables and the rmap, as usual.
An mm_struct list is maintained for each memcg, and an mm_struct follows
its owner task to the new memcg when this task is migrated. Given an
lruvec, the aging iterates lruvec_memcg()->mm_list and calls
walk_page_range() with each mm_struct on this list to promote hot pages
before it increments max_seq.
When multiple page table walkers iterate the same list, each of them gets
a unique mm_struct; therefore they can run concurrently. Page table
walkers ignore any misplaced pages, e.g., if an mm_struct was migrated,
pages it left in the previous memcg will not be promoted when its current
memcg is under reclaim. Similarly, page table walkers will not promote
pages from nodes other than the one under reclaim.
This patch uses the following optimizations when walking page tables:
1. It tracks the usage of mm_struct's between context switches so that
page table walkers can skip processes that have been sleeping since
the last iteration.
2. It uses generational Bloom filters to record populated branches so
that page table walkers can reduce their search space based on the
query results, e.g., to skip page tables containing mostly holes or
misplaced pages.
3. It takes advantage of the accessed bit in non-leaf PMD entries when
CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_NONLEAF_PMD_YOUNG=y.
4. It does not zigzag between a PGD table and the same PMD table
spanning multiple VMAs. IOW, it finishes all the VMAs within the
range of the same PMD table before it returns to a PGD table. This
improves the cache performance for workloads that have large
numbers of tiny VMAs [2], especially when CONFIG_PGTABLE_LEVELS=5.

sched_nr_migrate_break is set to a fix value and never changes so we can
replace it by a define SCHED_NR_MIGRATE_BREAK.
Also, we adjust SCHED_NR_MIGRATE_BREAK to be aligned with the init value
of sysctl_sched_nr_migrate which can be init to different values.
Then, use SCHED_NR_MIGRATE_BREAK to init sysctl_sched_nr_migrate.
The behavior stays unchanged unless you modify sysctl_sched_nr_migrate
trough debugfs.

The promotion hot threshold is workload and system configuration
dependent. So in this patch, a method to adjust the hot threshold
automatically is implemented. The basic idea is to control the number of
the candidate promotion pages to match the promotion rate limit. If the
hint page fault latency of a page is less than the hot threshold, we will
try to promote the page, and the page is called the candidate promotion
page.
If the number of the candidate promotion pages in the statistics interval
is much more than the promotion rate limit, the hot threshold will be
decreased to reduce the number of the candidate promotion pages.
Otherwise, the hot threshold will be increased to increase the number of
the candidate promotion pages.
To make the above method works, in each statistics interval, the total
number of the pages to check (on which the hint page faults occur) and the
hot/cold distribution need to be stable. Because the page tables are
scanned linearly in NUMA balancing, but the hot/cold distribution isn't
uniform along the address usually, the statistics interval should be
larger than the NUMA balancing scan period. So in the patch, the max scan
period is used as statistics interval and it works well in our tests.

Now PSI already tracked workload pressure stall information for
CPU, memory and IO. Apart from these, IRQ/SOFTIRQ could have
obvious impact on some workload productivity, such as web service
workload.
When CONFIG_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING, we can get IRQ/SOFTIRQ delta time
from update_rq_clock_task(), in which we can record that delta
to CPU curr task's cgroups as PSI_IRQ_FULL status.
Note we don't use PSI_IRQ_SOME since IRQ/SOFTIRQ always happen in
the current task on the CPU, make nothing productive could run
even if it were runnable, so we only use PSI_IRQ_FULL.

Rewrite the core freezer to behave better wrt thawing and be simpler
in general.
By replacing PF_FROZEN with TASK_FROZEN, a special block state, it is
ensured frozen tasks stay frozen until thawed and don't randomly wake
up early, as is currently possible.
As such, it does away with PF_FROZEN and PF_FREEZER_SKIP, freeing up
two PF_flags (yay!).
Specifically; the current scheme works a little like:
freezer_do_not_count();
schedule();
freezer_count();
And either the task is blocked, or it lands in try_to_freezer()
through freezer_count(). Now, when it is blocked, the freezer
considers it frozen and continues.
However, on thawing, once pm_freezing is cleared, freezer_count()
stops working, and any random/spurious wakeup will let a task run
before its time.
That is, thawing tries to thaw things in explicit order; kernel
threads and workqueues before doing bringing SMP back before userspace
etc.. However due to the above mentioned races it is entirely possible
for userspace tasks to thaw (by accident) before SMP is back.
This can be a fatal problem in asymmetric ISA architectures (eg ARMv9)
where the userspace task requires a special CPU to run.
As said; replace this with a special task state TASK_FROZEN and add
the following state transitions:
TASK_FREEZABLE -> TASK_FROZEN
__TASK_STOPPED -> TASK_FROZEN
__TASK_TRACED -> TASK_FROZEN
The new TASK_FREEZABLE can be set on any state part of TASK_NORMAL
(IOW. TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE and TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE) -- any such state
is already required to deal with spurious wakeups and the freezer
causes one such when thawing the task (since the original state is
lost).
The special __TASK_{STOPPED,TRACED} states *can* be restored since
their canonical state is in ->jobctl.
With this, frozen tasks need an explicit TASK_FROZEN wakeup and are
free of undue (early / spurious) wakeups.

The dump_cpu_task() function does not print registers on architectures
that do not support NMIs. However, registers can be useful for
debugging. Fortunately, in the case where dump_cpu_task() is invoked
from an interrupt handler and is dumping the current CPU's stack, the
get_irq_regs() function can be used to get the registers.
Therefore, this commit makes dump_cpu_task() check to see if it is being
asked to dump the current CPU's stack from within an interrupt handler,
and, if so, it uses the get_irq_regs() function to obtain the registers.
On systems that do support NMIs, this commit has the further advantage
of avoiding a self-NMI in this case.
This is an example of rcu self-detected stall on arm64, which does not
support NMIs:

The trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() function attempts to send an NMI to the
target CPU, which usually provides much better stack traces than the
dump_cpu_task() function's approach of dumping that stack from some other
CPU. So much so that most calls to dump_cpu_task() only happen after
a call to trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() has failed. And the exception to
this rule really should attempt to use trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() first.
Therefore, move the trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() invocation into
dump_cpu_task().

commit 7dc603c902 ("sched/fair: Fix PELT integrity for new tasks")
introduce a TASK_NEW state and an unnessary limitation that would fail
when changing cgroup of new forked task.
Because at that time, we can't handle task_change_group_fair() for new
forked fair task which hasn't been woken up by wake_up_new_task(),
which will cause detach on an unattached task sched_avg problem.
This patch delete this unnessary limitation by adding check before do
detach or attach in task_change_group_fair().
So cpu_cgrp_subsys.can_attach() has nothing to do for fair tasks,
only define it in #ifdef CONFIG_RT_GROUP_SCHED.

There's no good reason to crash a user's system with a BUG_ON(),
chances are high that they'll never even see the crash message on
Xorg, and it won't make it into the syslog either.
By using a WARN_ON_ONCE() we at least give the user a chance to report
any bugs triggered here - instead of getting silent hangs.
None of these WARN_ON_ONCE()s are supposed to trigger, ever - so we ignore
cases where a NULL check is done via a BUG_ON() and we let a NULL
pointer through after a WARN_ON_ONCE().
There's one exception: WARN_ON_ONCE() arguments with side-effects,
such as locking - in this case we use the return value of the
WARN_ON_ONCE(), such as in:
- BUG_ON(!lock_task_sighand(p, &flags));
+ if (WARN_ON_ONCE(!lock_task_sighand(p, &flags)))
+ return;

Commit c6e7bd7afa ("sched/core: Optimize ttwu() spinning on p->on_cpu")
optimises ttwu by queueing a task that is descheduling on the wakelist,
but does not check if the task descheduling is still allowed to run on that CPU.
In this warning, the problematic task is a workqueue rescue thread which
checks if the rescue is for a per-cpu workqueue and running on the wrong CPU.
While this is early in boot and it should be possible to create workers,
the rescue thread may still used if the MAYDAY_INITIAL_TIMEOUT is reached
or MAYDAY_INTERVAL and on a sufficiently large machine, the rescue
thread is being used frequently.
Tracing confirmed that the task should have migrated properly using the
stopper thread to handle the migration. However, a parallel wakeup from udev
running on another CPU that does not share CPU cache observes p->on_cpu and
uses task_cpu(p), queues the task on the old CPU and triggers the warning.
Check that the wakee task that is descheduling is still allowed to run
on its current CPU and if not, wait for the descheduling to complete
and select an allowed CPU.

With cgroup v2, the cpuset's cpus_allowed mask can be empty indicating
that the cpuset will just use the effective CPUs of its parent. So
cpuset_can_attach() can call task_can_attach() with an empty mask.
This can lead to cpumask_any_and() returns nr_cpu_ids causing the call
to dl_bw_of() to crash due to percpu value access of an out of bound
CPU value. For example:

Fix that by using effective_cpus instead. For cgroup v1, effective_cpus
is the same as cpus_allowed. For v2, effective_cpus is the real cpumask
to be used by tasks within the cpuset anyway.
Also update task_can_attach()'s 2nd argument name to cs_effective_cpus to
reflect the change. In addition, a check is added to task_can_attach()
to guard against the possibility that cpumask_any_and() may return a
value >= nr_cpu_ids.

This pull request contains the following branches:
doc.2022.06.21a: Documentation updates.
fixes.2022.07.19a: Miscellaneous fixes.
nocb.2022.07.19a: Callback-offload updates, perhaps most notably a new
RCU_NOCB_CPU_DEFAULT_ALL Kconfig option that causes all CPUs to
be offloaded at boot time, regardless of kernel boot parameters.
This is useful to battery-powered systems such as ChromeOS
and Android. In addition, a new RCU_NOCB_CPU_CB_BOOST kernel
boot parameter prevents offloaded callbacks from interfering
with real-time workloads and with energy-efficiency mechanisms.
poll.2022.07.21a: Polled grace-period updates, perhaps most notably
making these APIs account for both normal and expedited grace
periods.
rcu-tasks.2022.06.21a: Tasks RCU updates, perhaps most notably reducing
the CPU overhead of RCU tasks trace grace periods by more than
a factor of two on a system with 15,000 tasks. The reduction
is expected to increase with the number of tasks, so it seems
reasonable to hypothesize that a system with 150,000 tasks might
see a 20-fold reduction in CPU overhead.
torture.2022.06.21a: Torture-test updates.
ctxt.2022.07.05a: Updates that merge RCU's dyntick-idle tracking into
context tracking, thus reducing the overhead of transitioning to
kernel mode from either idle or nohz_full userspace execution
for kernels that track context independently of RCU. This is
expected to be helpful primarily for kernels built with
CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL=y.

Merge tag 'for-5.20/io_uring-2022-07-29' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block
Pull io_uring updates from Jens Axboe:
- As per (valid) complaint in the last merge window, fs/io_uring.c has
grown quite large these days. io_uring isn't really tied to fs
either, as it supports a wide variety of functionality outside of
that.
Move the code to io_uring/ and split it into files that either
implement a specific request type, and split some code into helpers
as well. The code is organized a lot better like this, and io_uring.c
is now < 4K LOC (me).
- Deprecate the epoll_ctl opcode. It'll still work, just trigger a
warning once if used. If we don't get any complaints on this, and I
don't expect any, then we can fully remove it in a future release
(me).
- Improve the cancel hash locking (Hao)
- kbuf cleanups (Hao)
- Efficiency improvements to the task_work handling (Dylan, Pavel)
- Provided buffer improvements (Dylan)
- Add support for recv/recvmsg multishot support. This is similar to
the accept (or poll) support for have for multishot, where a single
SQE can trigger everytime data is received. For applications that
expect to do more than a few receives on an instantiated socket, this
greatly improves efficiency (Dylan).
- Efficiency improvements for poll handling (Pavel)
- Poll cancelation improvements (Pavel)
- Allow specifiying a range for direct descriptor allocations (Pavel)
- Cleanup the cqe32 handling (Pavel)
- Move io_uring types to greatly cleanup the tracing (Pavel)
- Tons of great code cleanups and improvements (Pavel)
- Add a way to do sync cancelations rather than through the sqe -> cqe
interface, as that's a lot easier to use for some use cases (me).
- Add support to IORING_OP_MSG_RING for sending direct descriptors to a
different ring. This avoids the usually problematic SCM case, as we
disallow those. (me)
- Make the per-command alloc cache we use for apoll generic, place
limits on it, and use it for netmsg as well (me).
- Various cleanups (me, Michal, Gustavo, Uros)

Load-balancing improvements:
============================
- Improve NUMA balancing on AMD Zen systems for affine workloads.
- Improve the handling of reduced-capacity CPUs in load-balancing.
- Energy Model improvements: fix & refine all the energy fairness metrics (PELT),
and remove the conservative threshold requiring 6% energy savings to
migrate a task. Doing this improves power efficiency for most workloads,
and also increases the reliability of energy-efficiency scheduling.
- Optimize/tweak select_idle_cpu() to spend (much) less time searching
for an idle CPU on overloaded systems. There's reports of several
milliseconds spent there on large systems with large workloads ...
[ Since the search logic changed, there might be behavioral side effects. ]
- Improve NUMA imbalance behavior. On certain systems
with spare capacity, initial placement of tasks is non-deterministic,
and such an artificial placement imbalance can persist for a long time,
hurting (and sometimes helping) performance.
The fix is to make fork-time task placement consistent with runtime
NUMA balancing placement.
Note that some performance regressions were reported against this,
caused by workloads that are not memory bandwith limited, which benefit
from the artificial locality of the placement bug(s). Mel Gorman's
conclusion, with which we concur, was that consistency is better than
random workload benefits from non-deterministic bugs:
"Given there is no crystal ball and it's a tradeoff, I think it's
better to be consistent and use similar logic at both fork time
and runtime even if it doesn't have universal benefit."
- Improve core scheduling by fixing a bug in sched_core_update_cookie() that
caused unnecessary forced idling.
- Improve wakeup-balancing by allowing same-LLC wakeup of idle CPUs for newly
woken tasks.
- Fix a newidle balancing bug that introduced unnecessary wakeup latencies.
ABI improvements/fixes:
=======================
- Do not check capabilities and do not issue capability check denial messages
when a scheduler syscall doesn't require privileges. (Such as increasing niceness.)
- Add forced-idle accounting to cgroups too.
- Fix/improve the RSEQ ABI to not just silently accept unknown flags.
(No existing tooling is known to have learned to rely on the previous behavior.)
- Depreciate the (unused) RSEQ_CS_FLAG_NO_RESTART_ON_* flags.
Optimizations:
==============
- Optimize & simplify leaf_cfs_rq_list()
- Micro-optimize set_nr_{and_not,if}_polling() via try_cmpxchg().
Misc fixes & cleanups:
======================
- Fix the RSEQ self-tests on RISC-V and Glibc 2.35 systems.
- Fix a full-NOHZ bug that can in some cases result in the tick not being
re-enabled when the last SCHED_RT task is gone from a runqueue but there's
still SCHED_OTHER tasks around.
- Various PREEMPT_RT related fixes.
- Misc cleanups & smaller fixes.

Here the kworker is waiting on msdos_sb_info::s_lock which is held by
tar which is in turn waiting for a buffer which is locked waiting to be
flushed, but this operation is plugged in the kworker.
The lock is a normal struct mutex, so tsk_is_pi_blocked() will always
return false on !RT and thus the behaviour changes for RT.
It seems that the intent here is to skip blk_flush_plug() in the case
where a non-preemptible lock (such as a spinlock) has been converted to
a rtmutex on RT, which is the case covered by the SM_RTLOCK_WAIT
schedule flag. But sched_submit_work() is only called from schedule()
which is never called in this scenario, so the check can simply be
deleted.
Looking at the history of the -rt patchset, in fact this change was
present from v5.9.1-rt20 until being dropped in v5.13-rt1 as it was part
of a larger patch [1] most of which was replaced by commit b4bfa3fcfe
("sched/core: Rework the __schedule() preempt argument").
As described in [1]:
The schedule process must distinguish between blocking on a regular
sleeping lock (rwsem and mutex) and a RT-only sleeping lock (spinlock
and rwlock):
- rwsem and mutex must flush block requests (blk_schedule_flush_plug())
even if blocked on a lock. This can not deadlock because this also
happens for non-RT.
There should be a warning if the scheduling point is within a RCU read
section.
- spinlock and rwlock must not flush block requests. This will deadlock
if the callback attempts to acquire a lock which is already acquired.
Similarly to being preempted, there should be no warning if the
scheduling point is within a RCU read section.
and with the tsk_is_pi_blocked() in the scheduler path, we hit the first
issue.

Use try_cmpxchg instead of cmpxchg (*ptr, old, new) != old in
set_nr_{and_not,if}_polling. x86 cmpxchg returns success in ZF flag,
so this change saves a compare after cmpxchg.
The definition of cmpxchg based fetch_or was changed in the
same way as atomic_fetch_##op definitions were changed
in e6790e4b5d.
Also declare these two functions as inline to ensure inlining. In the
case of set_nr_and_not_polling, the compiler (gcc) tries to outsmart
itself by constructing the boolean return value with logic operations
on the fetched value, and these extra operations enlarge the function
over the inlining threshold value.

effective_cpu_util() already has a `int cpu' parameter which allows to
retrieve the CPU capacity scale factor (or maximum CPU capacity) inside
this function via an arch_scale_cpu_capacity(cpu).
A lot of code calling effective_cpu_util() (or the shim
sched_cpu_util()) needs the maximum CPU capacity, i.e. it will call
arch_scale_cpu_capacity() already.
But not having to pass it into effective_cpu_util() will make the EAS
wake-up code easier, especially when the maximum CPU capacity reduced
by the thermal pressure is passed through the EAS wake-up functions.
Due to the asymmetric CPU capacity support of arm/arm64 architectures,
arch_scale_cpu_capacity(int cpu) is a per-CPU variable read access via
per_cpu(cpu_scale, cpu) on such a system.
On all other architectures it is a a compile-time constant
(SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE).

sched_setattr(2) issues via kernel/sched/core.c:__sched_setscheduler()
a CAP_SYS_NICE audit event unconditionally, even when the requested
operation does not require that capability / is unprivileged, i.e. for
reducing niceness.
This is relevant in connection with SELinux, where a capability check
results in a policy decision and by default a denial message on
insufficient permission is issued.
It can lead to three undesired cases:
1. A denial message is generated, even in case the operation was an
unprivileged one and thus the syscall succeeded, creating noise.
2. To avoid the noise from 1. the policy writer adds a rule to ignore
those denial messages, hiding future syscalls, where the task
performs an actual privileged operation, leading to hidden limited
functionality of that task.
3. To avoid the noise from 1. the policy writer adds a rule to allow
the task the capability CAP_SYS_NICE, while it does not need it,
violating the principle of least privilege.
Conduct privilged/unprivileged categorization first and perform a
capable test (and at most once) only if needed.

Currently, the RCU Tasks Trace grace-period kthread IPIs each online CPU
using smp_call_function_single() in order to track any tasks currently in
RCU Tasks Trace read-side critical sections during which the corresponding
task has neither blocked nor been preempted. These IPIs are annoying
and are also not strictly necessary because any task that blocks or is
preempted within its current RCU Tasks Trace read-side critical section
will be tracked on one of the per-CPU rcu_tasks_percpu structure's
->rtp_blkd_tasks list. So the only time that this is a problem is if
one of the CPUs runs through a long-duration RCU Tasks Trace read-side
critical section without a context switch.
Note that the task_call_func() function cannot help here because there is
no safe way to identify the target task. Of course, the task_call_func()
function will be very useful later, when processing the list of tasks,
but it needs to know the task.
This commit therefore creates a cpu_curr_snapshot() function that returns
a pointer the task_struct structure of some task that happened to be
running on the specified CPU more or less during the time that the
cpu_curr_snapshot() function was executing. If there was no context
switch during this time, this function will return a pointer to the
task_struct structure of the task that was running throughout. If there
was a context switch, then the outgoing task will be taken care of by
RCU's context-switch hook, and the incoming task was either already taken
care during some previous context switch, or it is not currently within an
RCU Tasks Trace read-side critical section. And in this latter case, the
grace period already started, so there is no need to wait on this task.
This new cpu_curr_snapshot() function is invoked on each CPU early in
the RCU Tasks Trace grace-period processing, and the resulting tasks
are queued for later quiescent-state inspection.

Wakelist can help avoid cache bouncing and offload the overhead of waker
cpu. So far, using wakelist within the same llc only happens on
WF_ON_CPU, and this limitation could be removed to further improve
wakeup performance.
The commit 518cd62341 ("sched: Only queue remote wakeups when
crossing cache boundaries") disabled queuing tasks on wakelist when
the cpus share llc. This is because, at that time, the scheduler must
send IPIs to do ttwu_queue_wakelist. Nowadays, ttwu_queue_wakelist also
supports TIF_POLLING, so this is not a problem now when the wakee cpu is
in idle polling.
Benefits:
Queuing the task on idle cpu can help improving performance on waker cpu
and utilization on wakee cpu, and further improve locality because
the wakee cpu can handle its own rq. This patch helps improving rt on
our real java workloads where wakeup happens frequently.
Consider the normal condition (CPU0 and CPU1 share same llc)
Before this patch:
CPU0 CPU1
select_task_rq() idle
rq_lock(CPU1->rq)
enqueue_task(CPU1->rq)
notify CPU1 (by sending IPI or CPU1 polling)
resched()
After this patch:
CPU0 CPU1
select_task_rq() idle
add to wakelist of CPU1
notify CPU1 (by sending IPI or CPU1 polling)
rq_lock(CPU1->rq)
enqueue_task(CPU1->rq)
resched()
We see CPU0 can finish its work earlier. It only needs to put task to
wakelist and return.
While CPU1 is idle, so let itself handle its own runqueue data.
This patch brings no difference about IPI.
This patch only takes effect when the wakee cpu is:
1) idle polling
2) idle not polling
For 1), there will be no IPI with or without this patch.
For 2), there will always be an IPI before or after this patch.
Before this patch: waker cpu will enqueue task and check preempt. Since
"idle" will be sure to be preempted, waker cpu must send a resched IPI.
After this patch: waker cpu will put the task to the wakelist of wakee
cpu, and send an IPI.

The commit 2ebb177175 ("sched/core: Offload wakee task activation if it

stacking when WF_ON_CPU.
Per the ordering of writes to p->on_rq and p->on_cpu, observing p->on_cpu
(WF_ON_CPU) in ttwu_queue_cond() implies !p->on_rq, IOW p has gone through
the deactivate_task() in __schedule(), thus p has been accounted out of
rq->nr_running. As such, the task being the only runnable task on the rq
implies reading rq->nr_running == 0 at that point.
The benchmark result is in [1].

The purpose of balance_push() is to act as a filter on task selection
in the case of CPU hotplug, specifically when taking the CPU out.
It does this by (ab)using the balance callback infrastructure, with
the express purpose of keeping all the unlikely/odd cases in a single
place.
In order to serve its purpose, the balance_push_callback needs to be
(exclusively) on the callback list at all times (noting that the
callback always places itself back on the list the moment it runs,
also noting that when the CPU goes down, regular balancing concerns
are moot, so ignoring them is fine).
And here-in lies the problem, __sched_setscheduler()'s use of
splice_balance_callbacks() takes the callbacks off the list across a
lock-break, making it possible for, an interleaving, __schedule() to
see an empty list and not get filtered.

of Peter Zijlstra was encountering with ptrace in his freezer rewrite
I identified some cleanups to ptrace_stop that make sense on their own
and move make resolving the other problems much simpler.
The biggest issue is the habbit of the ptrace code to change task->__state
from the tracer to suppress TASK_WAKEKILL from waking up the tracee. No
other code in the kernel does that and it is straight forward to update
signal_wake_up and friends to make that unnecessary.
Peter's task freezer sets frozen tasks to a new state TASK_FROZEN and
then it stores them by calling "wake_up_state(t, TASK_FROZEN)" relying
on the fact that all stopped states except the special stop states can
tolerate spurious wake up and recover their state.
The state of stopped and traced tasked is changed to be stored in
task->jobctl as well as in task->__state. This makes it possible for
the freezer to recover tasks in these special states, as well as
serving as a general cleanup. With a little more work in that
direction I believe TASK_STOPPED can learn to tolerate spurious wake
ups and become an ordinary stop state.
The TASK_TRACED state has to remain a special state as the registers for
a process are only reliably available when the process is stopped in
the scheduler. Fundamentally ptrace needs acess to the saved
register values of a task.
There are bunch of semi-random ptrace related cleanups that were found
while looking at these issues.
One cleanup that deserves to be called out is from commit 57b6de08b5
("ptrace: Admit ptrace_stop can generate spuriuos SIGTRAPs"). This
makes a change that is technically user space visible, in the handling
of what happens to a tracee when a tracer dies unexpectedly.
According to our testing and our understanding of userspace nothing
cares that spurious SIGTRAPs can be generated in that case.

Merge tag 'ptrace_stop-cleanup-for-v5.19' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace
Pull ptrace_stop cleanups from Eric Biederman:
"While looking at the ptrace problems with PREEMPT_RT and the problems
Peter Zijlstra was encountering with ptrace in his freezer rewrite I
identified some cleanups to ptrace_stop that make sense on their own
and move make resolving the other problems much simpler.
The biggest issue is the habit of the ptrace code to change
task->__state from the tracer to suppress TASK_WAKEKILL from waking up
the tracee. No other code in the kernel does that and it is straight
forward to update signal_wake_up and friends to make that unnecessary.
Peter's task freezer sets frozen tasks to a new state TASK_FROZEN and
then it stores them by calling "wake_up_state(t, TASK_FROZEN)" relying
on the fact that all stopped states except the special stop states can
tolerate spurious wake up and recover their state.
The state of stopped and traced tasked is changed to be stored in
task->jobctl as well as in task->__state. This makes it possible for
the freezer to recover tasks in these special states, as well as
serving as a general cleanup. With a little more work in that
direction I believe TASK_STOPPED can learn to tolerate spurious wake
ups and become an ordinary stop state.
The TASK_TRACED state has to remain a special state as the registers
for a process are only reliably available when the process is stopped
in the scheduler. Fundamentally ptrace needs acess to the saved
register values of a task.
There are bunch of semi-random ptrace related cleanups that were found
while looking at these issues.
One cleanup that deserves to be called out is from commit 57b6de08b5
("ptrace: Admit ptrace_stop can generate spuriuos SIGTRAPs"). This
makes a change that is technically user space visible, in the handling
of what happens to a tracee when a tracer dies unexpectedly. According
to our testing and our understanding of userspace nothing cares that
spurious SIGTRAPs can be generated in that case"

For two kernel releases now kernel/sysctl.c has been being cleaned up
slowly, since the tables were grossly long, sprinkled with tons of #ifdefs and
all this caused merge conflicts with one susbystem or another.
This tree was put together to help try to avoid conflicts with these cleanups
going on different trees at time. So nothing exciting on this pull request,
just cleanups.
I actually had this sysctl-next tree up since v5.18 but I missed sending a
pull request for it on time during the last merge window. And so these changes
have been being soaking up on sysctl-next and so linux-next for a while.
The last change was merged May 4th.
Most of the compile issues were reported by 0day and fixed.
To help avoid a conflict with bpf folks at Daniel Borkmann's request
I merged bpf-next/pr/bpf-sysctl into sysctl-next to get the effor which
moves the BPF sysctls from kernel/sysctl.c to BPF core.

Because GCC-12 is fully stupid about array bounds and it's just really
hard to get a solid array definition from a linker script, flip the
array order to avoid needing negative offsets :-/
This makes the whole relational pointer magic a little less obvious, but
alas.

Commit fa2c3254d7 (sched/tracing: Don't re-read p->state when emitting
sched_switch event, 2022-01-20) added a new prev_state argument to the
sched_switch tracepoint, before the prev task_struct pointer.
This reordering of arguments broke BPF programs that use the raw
tracepoint (e.g. tp_btf programs). The type of the second argument has
changed and existing programs that assume a task_struct* argument
(e.g. for bpf_task_storage access) will now fail to verify.
If we instead append the new argument to the end, all existing programs
would continue to work and can conditionally extract the prev_state
argument on supported kernel versions.

Stop playing with tsk->__state to remove TASK_WAKEKILL while a ptrace
command is executing.
Instead remove TASK_WAKEKILL from the definition of TASK_TRACED, and
implement a new jobctl flag TASK_PTRACE_FROZEN. This new flag is set
in jobctl_freeze_task and cleared when ptrace_stop is awoken or in
jobctl_unfreeze_task (when ptrace_stop remains asleep).
In signal_wake_up add __TASK_TRACED to state along with TASK_WAKEKILL
when the wake up is for a fatal signal. Skip adding __TASK_TRACED
when TASK_PTRACE_FROZEN is not set. This has the same effect as
changing TASK_TRACED to __TASK_TRACED as all of the wake_ups that use
TASK_KILLABLE go through signal_wake_up.
Handle a ptrace_stop being called with a pending fatal signal.
Previously it would have been handled by schedule simply failing to
sleep. As TASK_WAKEKILL is no longer part of TASK_TRACED schedule
will sleep with a fatal_signal_pending. The code in signal_wake_up
guarantees that the code will be awaked by any fatal signal that
codes after TASK_TRACED is set.
Previously the __state value of __TASK_TRACED was changed to
TASK_RUNNING when woken up or back to TASK_TRACED when the code was
left in ptrace_stop. Now when woken up ptrace_stop now clears
JOBCTL_PTRACE_FROZEN and when left sleeping ptrace_unfreezed_traced
clears JOBCTL_PTRACE_FROZEN.

When we use raw_spin_rq_lock() to acquire the rq lock and have to
update the rq clock while holding the lock, the kernel may issue
a WARN_DOUBLE_CLOCK warning.
Since we directly use raw_spin_rq_lock() to acquire rq lock instead of
rq_lock(), there is no corresponding change to rq->clock_update_flags.
In particular, we have obtained the rq lock of other CPUs, the
rq->clock_update_flags of this CPU may be RQCF_UPDATED at this time, and
then calling update_rq_clock() will trigger the WARN_DOUBLE_CLOCK warning.
So we need to clear RQCF_UPDATED of rq->clock_update_flags to avoid
the WARN_DOUBLE_CLOCK warning.
For the sched_rt_period_timer() and migrate_task_rq_dl() cases
we simply replace raw_spin_rq_lock()/raw_spin_rq_unlock() with
rq_lock()/rq_unlock().
For the {pull,push}_{rt,dl}_task() cases, we add the
double_rq_clock_clear_update() function to clear RQCF_UPDATED of
rq->clock_update_flags, and call double_rq_clock_clear_update()
before double_lock_balance()/double_rq_lock() returns to avoid the
WARN_DOUBLE_CLOCK warning.
