License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

shm: make exit_shm work proportional to task activity This is small set of patches our team has had kicking around for a few versions internally that fixes tasks getting hung on shm_exit when there are many threads hammering it at once. Anton wrote a simple test to cause the issue: http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/bust_shm_exit.c Before applying this patchset, this test code will cause either hanging tracebacks or pthread out of memory errors. After this patchset, it will still produce output like: root@somehost:~# ./bust_shm_exit 1024 160 ... INFO: rcu_sched detected stalls on CPUs/tasks: {} (detected by 116, t=2111 jiffies, g=241, c=240, q=7113) INFO: Stall ended before state dump start ... But the task will continue to run along happily, so we consider this an improvement over hanging, even if it's a bit noisy. This patch (of 3): exit_shm obtains the ipc_ns shm rwsem for write and holds it while it walks every shared memory segment in the namespace. Thus the amount of work is related to the number of shm segments in the namespace not the number of segments that might need to be cleaned. In addition, this occurs after the task has been notified the thread has exited, so the number of tasks waiting for the ns shm rwsem can grow without bound until memory is exausted. Add a list to the task struct of all shmids allocated by this task. Init the list head in copy_process. Use the ns->rwsem for locking. Add segments after id is added, remove before removing from id. On unshare of NEW_IPCNS orphan any ids as if the task had exited, similar to handling of semaphore undo. I chose a define for the init sequence since its a simple list init, otherwise it would require a function call to avoid include loops between the semaphore code and the task struct. Converting the list_del to list_del_init for the unshare cases would remove the exit followed by init, but I left it blow up if not inited.

sched/core: Convert task_struct.usage to refcount_t atomic_t variables are currently used to implement reference counters with the following properties: - counter is initialized to 1 using atomic_set() - a resource is freed upon counter reaching zero - once counter reaches zero, its further increments aren't allowed - counter schema uses basic atomic operations (set, inc, inc_not_zero, dec_and_test, etc.) Such atomic variables should be converted to a newly provided refcount_t type and API that prevents accidental counter overflows and underflows. This is important since overflows and underflows can lead to use-after-free situation and be exploitable. The variable task_struct.usage is used as pure reference counter. Convert it to refcount_t and fix up the operations. ** Important note for maintainers: Some functions from refcount_t API defined in lib/refcount.c have different memory ordering guarantees than their atomic counterparts. The full comparison can be seen in https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/11/15/57 and it is hopefully soon in state to be merged to the documentation tree. Normally the differences should not matter since refcount_t provides enough guarantees to satisfy the refcounting use cases, but in some rare cases it might matter. Please double check that you don't have some undocumented memory guarantees for this variable usage. For the task_struct.usage it might make a difference in following places: - put_task_struct(): decrement in refcount_dec_and_test() only provides RELEASE ordering and control dependency on success vs. fully ordered atomic counterpart Suggested-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Signed-off-by: Elena Reshetova <elena.reshetova@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Reviewed-by: David Windsor <dwindsor@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Hans Liljestrand <ishkamiel@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Andrea Parri <andrea.parri@amarulasolutions.com> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: akpm@linux-foundation.org Cc: viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/1547814450-18902-5-git-send-email-elena.reshetova@intel.com Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

kernel: Implement selective syscall userspace redirection Introduce a mechanism to quickly disable/enable syscall handling for a specific process and redirect to userspace via SIGSYS. This is useful for processes with parts that require syscall redirection and parts that don't, but who need to perform this boundary crossing really fast, without paying the cost of a system call to reconfigure syscall handling on each boundary transition. This is particularly important for Windows games running over Wine. The proposed interface looks like this: prctl(PR_SET_SYSCALL_USER_DISPATCH, <op>, <off>, <length>, [selector]) The range [<offset>,<offset>+<length>) is a part of the process memory map that is allowed to by-pass the redirection code and dispatch syscalls directly, such that in fast paths a process doesn't need to disable the trap nor the kernel has to check the selector. This is essential to return from SIGSYS to a blocked area without triggering another SIGSYS from rt_sigreturn. selector is an optional pointer to a char-sized userspace memory region that has a key switch for the mechanism. This key switch is set to either PR_SYS_DISPATCH_ON, PR_SYS_DISPATCH_OFF to enable and disable the redirection without calling the kernel. The feature is meant to be set per-thread and it is disabled on fork/clone/execv. Internally, this doesn't add overhead to the syscall hot path, and it requires very little per-architecture support. I avoided using seccomp, even though it duplicates some functionality, due to previous feedback that maybe it shouldn't mix with seccomp since it is not a security mechanism. And obviously, this should never be considered a security mechanism, since any part of the program can by-pass it by using the syscall dispatcher. For the sysinfo benchmark, which measures the overhead added to executing a native syscall that doesn't require interception, the overhead using only the direct dispatcher region to issue syscalls is pretty much irrelevant. The overhead of using the selector goes around 40ns for a native (unredirected) syscall in my system, and it is (as expected) dominated by the supervisor-mode user-address access. In fact, with SMAP off, the overhead is consistently less than 5ns on my test box.

rseq: Introduce restartable sequences system call Expose a new system call allowing each thread to register one userspace memory area to be used as an ABI between kernel and user-space for two purposes: user-space restartable sequences and quick access to read the current CPU number value from user-space. * Restartable sequences (per-cpu atomics) Restartables sequences allow user-space to perform update operations on per-cpu data without requiring heavy-weight atomic operations. The restartable critical sections (percpu atomics) work has been started by Paul Turner and Andrew Hunter. It lets the kernel handle restart of critical sections. [1] [2] The re-implementation proposed here brings a few simplifications to the ABI which facilitates porting to other architectures and speeds up the user-space fast path. Here are benchmarks of various rseq use-cases. Test hardware: arm32: ARMv7 Processor rev 4 (v7l) "Cubietruck", 2-core x86-64: Intel E5-2630 v3@2.40GHz, 16-core, hyperthreading The following benchmarks were all performed on a single thread. * Per-CPU statistic counter increment getcpu+atomic (ns/op) rseq (ns/op) speedup arm32: 344.0 31.4 11.0 x86-64: 15.3 2.0 7.7 * LTTng-UST: write event 32-bit header, 32-bit payload into tracer per-cpu buffer getcpu+atomic (ns/op) rseq (ns/op) speedup arm32: 2502.0 2250.0 1.1 x86-64: 117.4 98.0 1.2 * liburcu percpu: lock-unlock pair, dereference, read/compare word getcpu+atomic (ns/op) rseq (ns/op) speedup arm32: 751.0 128.5 5.8 x86-64: 53.4 28.6 1.9 * jemalloc memory allocator adapted to use rseq Using rseq with per-cpu memory pools in jemalloc at Facebook (based on rseq 2016 implementation): The production workload response-time has 1-2% gain avg. latency, and the P99 overall latency drops by 2-3%. * Reading the current CPU number Speeding up reading the current CPU number on which the caller thread is running is done by keeping the current CPU number up do date within the cpu_id field of the memory area registered by the thread. This is done by making scheduler preemption set the TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME flag on the current thread. Upon return to user-space, a notify-resume handler updates the current CPU value within the registered user-space memory area. User-space can then read the current CPU number directly from memory. Keeping the current cpu id in a memory area shared between kernel and user-space is an improvement over current mechanisms available to read the current CPU number, which has the following benefits over alternative approaches: - 35x speedup on ARM vs system call through glibc - 20x speedup on x86 compared to calling glibc, which calls vdso executing a "lsl" instruction, - 14x speedup on x86 compared to inlined "lsl" instruction, - Unlike vdso approaches, this cpu_id value can be read from an inline assembly, which makes it a useful building block for restartable sequences. - The approach of reading the cpu id through memory mapping shared between kernel and user-space is portable (e.g. ARM), which is not the case for the lsl-based x86 vdso. On x86, yet another possible approach would be to use the gs segment selector to point to user-space per-cpu data. This approach performs similarly to the cpu id cache, but it has two disadvantages: it is not portable, and it is incompatible with existing applications already using the gs segment selector for other purposes. Benchmarking various approaches for reading the current CPU number: ARMv7 Processor rev 4 (v7l) Machine model: Cubietruck - Baseline (empty loop): 8.4 ns - Read CPU from rseq cpu_id: 16.7 ns - Read CPU from rseq cpu_id (lazy register): 19.8 ns - glibc 2.19-0ubuntu6.6 getcpu: 301.8 ns - getcpu system call: 234.9 ns x86-64 Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2630 v3 @ 2.40GHz: - Baseline (empty loop): 0.8 ns - Read CPU from rseq cpu_id: 0.8 ns - Read CPU from rseq cpu_id (lazy register): 0.8 ns - Read using gs segment selector: 0.8 ns - "lsl" inline assembly: 13.0 ns - glibc 2.19-0ubuntu6 getcpu: 16.6 ns - getcpu system call: 53.9 ns - Speed (benchmark taken on v8 of patchset) Running 10 runs of hackbench -l 100000 seems to indicate, contrary to expectations, that enabling CONFIG_RSEQ slightly accelerates the scheduler: Configuration: 2 sockets * 8-core Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2630 v3 @ 2.40GHz (directly on hardware, hyperthreading disabled in BIOS, energy saving disabled in BIOS, turboboost disabled in BIOS, cpuidle.off=1 kernel parameter), with a Linux v4.6 defconfig+localyesconfig, restartable sequences series applied. * CONFIG_RSEQ=n avg.: 41.37 s std.dev.: 0.36 s * CONFIG_RSEQ=y avg.: 40.46 s std.dev.: 0.33 s - Size On x86-64, between CONFIG_RSEQ=n/y, the text size increase of vmlinux is 567 bytes, and the data size increase of vmlinux is 5696 bytes.

kthread, sched/core: Fix kthread_parkme() (again...) Gaurav reports that commit: 85f1abe0019f ("kthread, sched/wait: Fix kthread_parkme() completion issue") isn't working for him.

Promote TASK_PARKED to special state to avoid the store-store issue on task->state leading to the WARN in kthread_unpark() -> __kthread_bind(). But in addition, add wait_task_inactive() to kthread_park() to ensure the task really is PARKED when we return from kthread_park(). This avoids the whole kthread still gets migrated nonsense -- although it would be really good to get this done differently.

arm64: entry.S: Do not preempt from IRQ before all cpufeatures are enabled 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().

sched/cputime: Accumulate vtime on top of nsec clocksource Currently the cputime source used by vtime is jiffies. When we cross a context boundary and jiffies have changed since the last snapshot, the pending cputime is accounted to the switching out context. This system works ok if the ticks are not aligned across CPUs. If they instead are aligned (ie: all fire at the same time) and the CPUs run in userspace, the jiffies change is only observed on tick exit and therefore the user cputime is accounted as system cputime. This is because the CPU that maintains timekeeping fires its tick at the same time as the others. It updates jiffies in the middle of the tick and the other CPUs see that update on IRQ exit: CPU 0 (timekeeper) CPU 1 ------------------- ------------- jiffies = N ... run in userspace for a jiffy tick entry tick entry (sees jiffies = N) set jiffies = N + 1 tick exit tick exit (sees jiffies = N + 1) account 1 jiffy as stime Fix this with using a nanosec clock source instead of jiffies. The cputime is then accumulated and flushed everytime the pending delta reaches a jiffy in order to mitigate the accounting overhead.

sched/uclamp: Add CPU's clamp buckets refcounting 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.

sched/fair: Add util_est on top of PELT The util_avg signal computed by PELT is too variable for some use-cases. For example, a big task waking up after a long sleep period will have its utilization almost completely decayed. This introduces some latency before schedutil will be able to pick the best frequency to run a task. The same issue can affect task placement. Indeed, since the task utilization is already decayed at wakeup, when the task is enqueued in a CPU, this can result in a CPU running a big task as being temporarily represented as being almost empty. This leads to a race condition where other tasks can be potentially allocated on a CPU which just started to run a big task which slept for a relatively long period. Moreover, the PELT utilization of a task can be updated every [ms], thus making it a continuously changing value for certain longer running tasks. This means that the instantaneous PELT utilization of a RUNNING task is not really meaningful to properly support scheduler decisions. For all these reasons, a more stable signal can do a better job of representing the expected/estimated utilization of a task/cfs_rq. Such a signal can be easily created on top of PELT by still using it as an estimator which produces values to be aggregated on meaningful events. This patch adds a simple implementation of util_est, a new signal built on top of PELT's util_avg where: util_est(task) = max(task::util_avg, f(task::util_avg@dequeue)) This allows to remember how big a task has been reported by PELT in its previous activations via f(task::util_avg@dequeue), which is the new _task_util_est(struct task_struct*) function added by this patch. If a task should change its behavior and it runs longer in a new activation, after a certain time its util_est will just track the original PELT signal (i.e. task::util_avg). The estimated utilization of cfs_rq is defined only for root ones. That's because the only sensible consumer of this signal are the scheduler and schedutil when looking for the overall CPU utilization due to FAIR tasks. For this reason, the estimated utilization of a root cfs_rq is simply defined as: util_est(cfs_rq) = max(cfs_rq::util_avg, cfs_rq::util_est::enqueued) where: cfs_rq::util_est::enqueued = sum(_task_util_est(task)) for each RUNNABLE task on that root cfs_rq It's worth noting that the estimated utilization is tracked only for objects of interests, specifically: - Tasks: to better support tasks placement decisions - root cfs_rqs: to better support both tasks placement decisions as well as frequencies selection Signed-off-by: Patrick Bellasi <patrick.bellasi@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Reviewed-by: Dietmar Eggemann <dietmar.eggemann@arm.com> Cc: Joel Fernandes <joelaf@google.com> Cc: Juri Lelli <juri.lelli@redhat.com> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Morten Rasmussen <morten.rasmussen@arm.com> Cc: Paul Turner <pjt@google.com> Cc: Rafael J .

* Support data structure to track an Exponential Weighted Moving Average

* so that the EWMA will be relatively insensitive to transient changes to the

*
* The enqueued attribute has a slightly different meaning for tasks and cpus:
* - task: the task's util_avg at last task dequeue time
* - cfs_rq: the sum of util_est.enqueued for each RUNNABLE task on that CPU
* Thus, the util_est.enqueued of a task represents the contribution on the
* estimated utilization of the CPU where that task is currently enqueued.
*
* Only for tasks we track a moving average of the past instantaneous
* estimated utilization. This allows to absorb sporadic drops in utilization
* of an otherwise almost periodic task.
sched/fair: Fix util_est UTIL_AVG_UNCHANGED handling The util_est internal UTIL_AVG_UNCHANGED flag which is used to prevent unnecessary util_est updates uses the LSB of util_est.enqueued. It is exposed via _task_util_est() (and task_util_est()). Commit 92a801e5d5b7 ("sched/fair: Mask UTIL_AVG_UNCHANGED usages") mentions that the LSB is lost for util_est resolution but find_energy_efficient_cpu() checks if task_util_est() returns 0 to return prev_cpu early. _task_util_est() returns the max value of util_est.ewma and util_est.enqueued or'ed w/ UTIL_AVG_UNCHANGED. So task_util_est() returning the max of task_util() and _task_util_est() will never return 0 under the default SCHED_FEAT(UTIL_EST, true). To fix this use the MSB of util_est.enqueued instead and keep the flag util_est internal, i.e. don't export it via _task_util_est(). The maximal possible util_avg value for a task is 1024 so the MSB of 'unsigned int util_est.enqueued' isn't used to store a util value. As a caveat the code behind the util_est_se trace point has to filter UTIL_AVG_UNCHANGED to see the real util_est.enqueued value which should be easy to do. This also fixes an issue report by Xuewen Yan that util_est_update() only used UTIL_AVG_UNCHANGED for the subtrahend of the equation: last_enqueued_diff = ue.enqueued - (task_util() | UTIL_AVG_UNCHANGED) Fixes: b89997aa88f0b sched/pelt: Fix task util_est update filtering Signed-off-by: Dietmar Eggemann <dietmar.eggemann@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Reviewed-by: Xuewen Yan <xuewen.yan@unisoc.com> Reviewed-by: Vincent Donnefort <vincent.donnefort@arm.com> Reviewed-by: Vincent Guittot <vincent.guittot@linaro.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210602145808.1562603-1-dietmar.eggemann@arm.com

* The UTIL_AVG_UNCHANGED flag is used to synchronize util_est with util_avg
* updates. When a task is dequeued, its util_est should not be updated if its
* util_avg has not been updated in the meantime.
* This information is mapped into the MSB bit of util_est.enqueued at dequeue

sched/fair: Fix util_est UTIL_AVG_UNCHANGED handling The util_est internal UTIL_AVG_UNCHANGED flag which is used to prevent unnecessary util_est updates uses the LSB of util_est.enqueued. It is exposed via _task_util_est() (and task_util_est()). Commit 92a801e5d5b7 ("sched/fair: Mask UTIL_AVG_UNCHANGED usages") mentions that the LSB is lost for util_est resolution but find_energy_efficient_cpu() checks if task_util_est() returns 0 to return prev_cpu early. _task_util_est() returns the max value of util_est.ewma and util_est.enqueued or'ed w/ UTIL_AVG_UNCHANGED. So task_util_est() returning the max of task_util() and _task_util_est() will never return 0 under the default SCHED_FEAT(UTIL_EST, true). To fix this use the MSB of util_est.enqueued instead and keep the flag util_est internal, i.e. don't export it via _task_util_est(). The maximal possible util_avg value for a task is 1024 so the MSB of 'unsigned int util_est.enqueued' isn't used to store a util value. As a caveat the code behind the util_est_se trace point has to filter UTIL_AVG_UNCHANGED to see the real util_est.enqueued value which should be easy to do. This also fixes an issue report by Xuewen Yan that util_est_update() only used UTIL_AVG_UNCHANGED for the subtrahend of the equation: last_enqueued_diff = ue.enqueued - (task_util() | UTIL_AVG_UNCHANGED) Fixes: b89997aa88f0b sched/pelt: Fix task util_est update filtering Signed-off-by: Dietmar Eggemann <dietmar.eggemann@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Reviewed-by: Xuewen Yan <xuewen.yan@unisoc.com> Reviewed-by: Vincent Donnefort <vincent.donnefort@arm.com> Reviewed-by: Vincent Guittot <vincent.guittot@linaro.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210602145808.1562603-1-dietmar.eggemann@arm.com

sched/core: Force proper alignment of 'struct util_est' For some as yet not understood reason, Tony gets unaligned access traps on IA64 because of: struct util_est ue = READ_ONCE(p->se.avg.util_est); and: WRITE_ONCE(p->se.avg.util_est, ue); introduced by commit: d519329f72a6 ("sched/fair: Update util_est only on util_avg updates") Normally those two fields should end up on an 8-byte aligned location, but UP and RANDSTRUCT can mess that up so enforce the alignment explicitly.

sched/fair: Add util_est on top of PELT The util_avg signal computed by PELT is too variable for some use-cases. For example, a big task waking up after a long sleep period will have its utilization almost completely decayed. This introduces some latency before schedutil will be able to pick the best frequency to run a task. The same issue can affect task placement. Indeed, since the task utilization is already decayed at wakeup, when the task is enqueued in a CPU, this can result in a CPU running a big task as being temporarily represented as being almost empty. This leads to a race condition where other tasks can be potentially allocated on a CPU which just started to run a big task which slept for a relatively long period. Moreover, the PELT utilization of a task can be updated every [ms], thus making it a continuously changing value for certain longer running tasks. This means that the instantaneous PELT utilization of a RUNNING task is not really meaningful to properly support scheduler decisions. For all these reasons, a more stable signal can do a better job of representing the expected/estimated utilization of a task/cfs_rq. Such a signal can be easily created on top of PELT by still using it as an estimator which produces values to be aggregated on meaningful events. This patch adds a simple implementation of util_est, a new signal built on top of PELT's util_avg where: util_est(task) = max(task::util_avg, f(task::util_avg@dequeue)) This allows to remember how big a task has been reported by PELT in its previous activations via f(task::util_avg@dequeue), which is the new _task_util_est(struct task_struct*) function added by this patch. If a task should change its behavior and it runs longer in a new activation, after a certain time its util_est will just track the original PELT signal (i.e. task::util_avg). The estimated utilization of cfs_rq is defined only for root ones. That's because the only sensible consumer of this signal are the scheduler and schedutil when looking for the overall CPU utilization due to FAIR tasks. For this reason, the estimated utilization of a root cfs_rq is simply defined as: util_est(cfs_rq) = max(cfs_rq::util_avg, cfs_rq::util_est::enqueued) where: cfs_rq::util_est::enqueued = sum(_task_util_est(task)) for each RUNNABLE task on that root cfs_rq It's worth noting that the estimated utilization is tracked only for objects of interests, specifically: - Tasks: to better support tasks placement decisions - root cfs_rqs: to better support both tasks placement decisions as well as frequencies selection Signed-off-by: Patrick Bellasi <patrick.bellasi@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Reviewed-by: Dietmar Eggemann <dietmar.eggemann@arm.com> Cc: Joel Fernandes <joelaf@google.com> Cc: Juri Lelli <juri.lelli@redhat.com> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Morten Rasmussen <morten.rasmussen@arm.com> Cc: Paul Turner <pjt@google.com> Cc: Rafael J .

sched/fair: Rewrite runnable load and utilization average tracking The idea of runnable load average (let runnable time contribute to weight) was proposed by Paul Turner and Ben Segall, and it is still followed by this rewrite. This rewrite aims to solve the following issues: 1. cfs_rq's load average (namely runnable_load_avg and blocked_load_avg) is updated at the granularity of an entity at a time, which results in the cfs_rq's load average is stale or partially updated: at any time, only one entity is up to date, all other entities are effectively lagging behind. This is undesirable. To illustrate, if we have n runnable entities in the cfs_rq, as time elapses, they certainly become outdated: t0: cfs_rq { e1_old, e2_old, ..., en_old } and when we update: t1: update e1, then we have cfs_rq { e1_new, e2_old, ..., en_old } t2: update e2, then we have cfs_rq { e1_old, e2_new, ..., en_old } ... We solve this by combining all runnable entities' load averages together in cfs_rq's avg, and update the cfs_rq's avg as a whole. This is based on the fact that if we regard the update as a function, then: w * update(e) = update(w * e) and update(e1) + update(e2) = update(e1 + e2), then w1 * update(e1) + w2 * update(e2) = update(w1 * e1 + w2 * e2) therefore, by this rewrite, we have an entirely updated cfs_rq at the time we update it: t1: update cfs_rq { e1_new, e2_new, ..., en_new } t2: update cfs_rq { e1_new, e2_new, ..., en_new } ... 2. cfs_rq's load average is different between top rq->cfs_rq and other task_group's per CPU cfs_rqs in whether or not blocked_load_average contributes to the load. The basic idea behind runnable load average (the same for utilization) is that the blocked state is taken into account as opposed to only accounting for the currently runnable state. Therefore, the average should include both the runnable/running and blocked load averages. This rewrite does that. In addition, we also combine runnable/running and blocked averages of all entities into the cfs_rq's average, and update it together at once. This is based on the fact that: update(runnable) + update(blocked) = update(runnable + blocked) This significantly reduces the code as we don't need to separately maintain/update runnable/running load and blocked load. 3. How task_group entities' share is calculated is complex and imprecise. We reduce the complexity in this rewrite to allow a very simple rule: the task_group's load_avg is aggregated from its per CPU cfs_rqs's load_avgs. Then group entity's weight is simply proportional to its own cfs_rq's load_avg / task_group's load_avg. To illustrate, if a task_group has { cfs_rq1, cfs_rq2, ..., cfs_rqn }, then, task_group_avg = cfs_rq1_avg + cfs_rq2_avg + ... + cfs_rqn_avg, then cfs_rqx's entity's share = cfs_rqx_avg / task_group_avg * task_group's share To sum up, this rewrite in principle is equivalent to the current one, but fixes the issues described above. Turns out, it significantly reduces the code complexity and hence increases clarity and efficiency. In addition, the new averages are more smooth/continuous (no spurious spikes and valleys) and updated more consistently and quickly to reflect the load dynamics. As a result, we have less load tracking overhead, better performance, and especially better power efficiency due to more balanced load.

*
sched/fair: Update scale invariance of PELT The current implementation of load tracking invariance scales the contribution with current frequency and uarch performance (only for utilization) of the CPU. One main result of this formula is that the figures are capped by current capacity of CPU. Another one is that the load_avg is not invariant because not scaled with uarch. The util_avg of a periodic task that runs r time slots every p time slots varies in the range : U * (1-y^r)/(1-y^p) * y^i < Utilization < U * (1-y^r)/(1-y^p) with U is the max util_avg value = SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE At a lower capacity, the range becomes: U * C * (1-y^r')/(1-y^p) * y^i' < Utilization < U * C * (1-y^r')/(1-y^p) with C reflecting the compute capacity ratio between current capacity and max capacity. so C tries to compensate changes in (1-y^r') but it can't be accurate. Instead of scaling the contribution value of PELT algo, we should scale the running time. The PELT signal aims to track the amount of computation of tasks and/or rq so it seems more correct to scale the running time to reflect the effective amount of computation done since the last update. In order to be fully invariant, we need to apply the same amount of running time and idle time whatever the current capacity. Because running at lower capacity implies that the task will run longer, we have to ensure that the same amount of idle time will be applied when system becomes idle and no idle time has been "stolen". But reaching the maximum utilization value (SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE) means that the task is seen as an always-running task whatever the capacity of the CPU (even at max compute capacity). In this case, we can discard this "stolen" idle times which becomes meaningless. In order to achieve this time scaling, a new clock_pelt is created per rq. The increase of this clock scales with current capacity when something is running on rq and synchronizes with clock_task when rq is idle. With this mechanism, we ensure the same running and idle time whatever the current capacity. This also enables to simplify the pelt algorithm by removing all references of uarch and frequency and applying the same contribution to utilization and loads. Furthermore, the scaling is done only once per update of clock (update_rq_clock_task()) instead of during each update of sched_entities and cfs/rt/dl_rq of the rq like the current implementation. This is interesting when cgroup are involved as shown in the results below: On a hikey (octo Arm64 platform). Performance cpufreq governor and only shallowest c-state to remove variance generated by those power features so we only track the impact of pelt algo. each test runs 16 times: ./perf bench sched pipe (higher is better) kernel tip/sched/core + patch ops/seconds ops/seconds diff cgroup root 59652(+/- 0.18%) 59876(+/- 0.24%) +0.38% level1 55608(+/- 0.27%) 55923(+/- 0.24%) +0.57% level2 52115(+/- 0.29%) 52564(+/- 0.22%) +0.86% hackbench -l 1000 (lower is better) kernel tip/sched/core + patch duration(sec) duration(sec) diff cgroup root 4.453(+/- 2.37%) 4.383(+/- 2.88%) -1.57% level1 4.859(+/- 8.50%) 4.830(+/- 7.07%) -0.60% level2 5.063(+/- 9.83%) 4.928(+/- 9.66%) -2.66% Then, the responsiveness of PELT is improved when CPU is not running at max capacity with this new algorithm. I have put below some examples of duration to reach some typical load values according to the capacity of the CPU with current implementation and with this patch. These values has been computed based on the geometric series and the half period value: Util (%) max capacity half capacity(mainline) half capacity(w/ patch) 972 (95%) 138ms not reachable 276ms 486 (47.5%) 30ms 138ms 60ms 256 (25%) 13ms 32ms 26ms On my hikey (octo Arm64 platform) with schedutil governor, the time to reach max OPP when starting from a null utilization, decreases from 223ms with current scale invariance down to 121ms with the new algorithm.

To illustrate, if we have n runnable entities in the cfs_rq, as time elapses, they certainly become outdated: t0: cfs_rq { e1_old, e2_old, ..., en_old } and when we update: t1: update e1, then we have cfs_rq { e1_new, e2_old, ..., en_old } t2: update e2, then we have cfs_rq { e1_old, e2_new, ..., en_old } ... We solve this by combining all runnable entities' load averages together in cfs_rq's avg, and update the cfs_rq's avg as a whole. This is based on the fact that if we regard the update as a function, then: w * update(e) = update(w * e) and update(e1) + update(e2) = update(e1 + e2), then w1 * update(e1) + w2 * update(e2) = update(w1 * e1 + w2 * e2) therefore, by this rewrite, we have an entirely updated cfs_rq at the time we update it: t1: update cfs_rq { e1_new, e2_new, ..., en_new } t2: update cfs_rq { e1_new, e2_new, ..., en_new } ... 2. cfs_rq's load average is different between top rq->cfs_rq and other task_group's per CPU cfs_rqs in whether or not blocked_load_average contributes to the load. The basic idea behind runnable load average (the same for utilization) is that the blocked state is taken into account as opposed to only accounting for the currently runnable state. Therefore, the average should include both the runnable/running and blocked load averages. This rewrite does that. In addition, we also combine runnable/running and blocked averages of all entities into the cfs_rq's average, and update it together at once. This is based on the fact that: update(runnable) + update(blocked) = update(runnable + blocked) This significantly reduces the code as we don't need to separately maintain/update runnable/running load and blocked load. 3. How task_group entities' share is calculated is complex and imprecise. We reduce the complexity in this rewrite to allow a very simple rule: the task_group's load_avg is aggregated from its per CPU cfs_rqs's load_avgs. Then group entity's weight is simply proportional to its own cfs_rq's load_avg / task_group's load_avg. To illustrate, if a task_group has { cfs_rq1, cfs_rq2, ..., cfs_rqn }, then, task_group_avg = cfs_rq1_avg + cfs_rq2_avg + ... + cfs_rqn_avg, then cfs_rqx's entity's share = cfs_rqx_avg / task_group_avg * task_group's share To sum up, this rewrite in principle is equivalent to the current one, but fixes the issues described above. Turns out, it significantly reduces the code complexity and hence increases clarity and efficiency. In addition, the new averages are more smooth/continuous (no spurious spikes and valleys) and updated more consistently and quickly to reflect the load dynamics. As a result, we have less load tracking overhead, better performance, and especially better power efficiency due to more balanced load.

sched/fair: Add util_est on top of PELT The util_avg signal computed by PELT is too variable for some use-cases. For example, a big task waking up after a long sleep period will have its utilization almost completely decayed. This introduces some latency before schedutil will be able to pick the best frequency to run a task. The same issue can affect task placement. Indeed, since the task utilization is already decayed at wakeup, when the task is enqueued in a CPU, this can result in a CPU running a big task as being temporarily represented as being almost empty. This leads to a race condition where other tasks can be potentially allocated on a CPU which just started to run a big task which slept for a relatively long period. Moreover, the PELT utilization of a task can be updated every [ms], thus making it a continuously changing value for certain longer running tasks. This means that the instantaneous PELT utilization of a RUNNING task is not really meaningful to properly support scheduler decisions. For all these reasons, a more stable signal can do a better job of representing the expected/estimated utilization of a task/cfs_rq. Such a signal can be easily created on top of PELT by still using it as an estimator which produces values to be aggregated on meaningful events. This patch adds a simple implementation of util_est, a new signal built on top of PELT's util_avg where: util_est(task) = max(task::util_avg, f(task::util_avg@dequeue)) This allows to remember how big a task has been reported by PELT in its previous activations via f(task::util_avg@dequeue), which is the new _task_util_est(struct task_struct*) function added by this patch. If a task should change its behavior and it runs longer in a new activation, after a certain time its util_est will just track the original PELT signal (i.e. task::util_avg). The estimated utilization of cfs_rq is defined only for root ones. That's because the only sensible consumer of this signal are the scheduler and schedutil when looking for the overall CPU utilization due to FAIR tasks. For this reason, the estimated utilization of a root cfs_rq is simply defined as: util_est(cfs_rq) = max(cfs_rq::util_avg, cfs_rq::util_est::enqueued) where: cfs_rq::util_est::enqueued = sum(_task_util_est(task)) for each RUNNABLE task on that root cfs_rq It's worth noting that the estimated utilization is tracked only for objects of interests, specifically: - Tasks: to better support tasks placement decisions - root cfs_rqs: to better support both tasks placement decisions as well as frequencies selection Signed-off-by: Patrick Bellasi <patrick.bellasi@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Reviewed-by: Dietmar Eggemann <dietmar.eggemann@arm.com> Cc: Joel Fernandes <joelaf@google.com> Cc: Juri Lelli <juri.lelli@redhat.com> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Morten Rasmussen <morten.rasmussen@arm.com> Cc: Paul Turner <pjt@google.com> Cc: Rafael J .

Core data structure of SCHED_DEADLINE are defined, along with their initializers. Hooks for checking if a task belong to the new policy are also added where they are needed. Adds a scheduling class, in sched/dl.c and a new policy called SCHED_DEADLINE. It is an implementation of the Earliest Deadline First (EDF) scheduling algorithm, augmented with a mechanism (called Constant Bandwidth Server, CBS) that makes it possible to isolate the behaviour of tasks between each other. The typical -deadline task will be made up of a computation phase (instance) which is activated on a periodic or sporadic fashion. The expected (maximum) duration of such computation is called the task's runtime; the time interval by which each instance need to be completed is called the task's relative deadline. The task's absolute deadline is dynamically calculated as the time instant a task (better, an instance) activates plus the relative deadline. The EDF algorithms selects the task with the smallest absolute deadline as the one to be executed first, while the CBS ensures each task to run for at most its runtime every (relative) deadline length time interval, avoiding any interference between different tasks (bandwidth isolation). Thanks to this feature, also tasks that do not strictly comply with the computational model sketched above can effectively use the new policy. To summarize, this patch: - introduces the data structures, constants and symbols needed; - implements the core logic of the scheduling algorithm in the new scheduling class file; - provides all the glue code between the new scheduling class and the core scheduler and refines the interactions between sched/dl and the other existing scheduling classes.

sched/deadline: Use the revised wakeup rule for suspending constrained dl tasks We have been facing some problems with self-suspending constrained deadline tasks. The main reason is that the original CBS was not designed for such sort of tasks. One problem reported by Xunlei Pang takes place when a task suspends, and then is awakened before the deadline, but so close to the deadline that its remaining runtime can cause the task to have an absolute density higher than allowed. In such situation, the original CBS assumes that the task is facing an early activation, and so it replenishes the task and set another deadline, one deadline in the future. This rule works fine for implicit deadline tasks. Moreover, it allows the system to adapt the period of a task in which the external event source suffered from a clock drift. However, this opens the window for bandwidth leakage for constrained deadline tasks. For instance, a task with the following parameters: runtime = 5 ms deadline = 7 ms [density] = 5 / 7 = 0.71 period = 1000 ms If the task runs for 1 ms, and then suspends for another 1ms, it will be awakened with the following parameters: remaining runtime = 4 laxity = 5 presenting a absolute density of 4 / 5 = 0.80. In this case, the original CBS would assume the task had an early wakeup. Then, CBS will reset the runtime, and the absolute deadline will be postponed by one relative deadline, allowing the task to run. The problem is that, if the task runs this pattern forever, it will keep receiving bandwidth, being able to run 1ms every 2ms. Following this behavior, the task would be able to run 500 ms in 1 sec. Thus running more than the 5 ms / 1 sec the admission control allowed it to run. Trying to address the self-suspending case, Luca Abeni, Giuseppe Lipari, and Juri Lelli [1] revisited the CBS in order to deal with self-suspending tasks. In the new approach, rather than replenishing/postponing the absolute deadline, the revised wakeup rule adjusts the remaining runtime, reducing it to fit into the allowed density. A revised version of the idea is: At a given time t, the maximum absolute density of a task cannot be higher than its relative density, that is: runtime / (deadline - t) <= dl_runtime / dl_deadline Knowing the laxity of a task (deadline - t), it is possible to move it to the other side of the equality, thus enabling to define max remaining runtime a task can use within the absolute deadline, without over-running the allowed density: runtime = (dl_runtime / dl_deadline) * (deadline - t) For instance, in our previous example, the task could still run: runtime = ( 5 / 7 ) * 5 runtime = 3.57 ms Without causing damage for other deadline tasks. It is note worthy that the laxity cannot be negative because that would cause a negative runtime. Thus, this patch depends on the patch: df8eac8cafce ("sched/deadline: Throttle a constrained deadline task activated after the deadline") Which throttles a constrained deadline task activated after the deadline. Finally, it is also possible to use the revised wakeup rule for all other tasks, but that would require some more discussions about pros and cons.

Core data structure of SCHED_DEADLINE are defined, along with their initializers. Hooks for checking if a task belong to the new policy are also added where they are needed. Adds a scheduling class, in sched/dl.c and a new policy called SCHED_DEADLINE. It is an implementation of the Earliest Deadline First (EDF) scheduling algorithm, augmented with a mechanism (called Constant Bandwidth Server, CBS) that makes it possible to isolate the behaviour of tasks between each other. The typical -deadline task will be made up of a computation phase (instance) which is activated on a periodic or sporadic fashion. The expected (maximum) duration of such computation is called the task's runtime; the time interval by which each instance need to be completed is called the task's relative deadline. The task's absolute deadline is dynamically calculated as the time instant a task (better, an instance) activates plus the relative deadline. The EDF algorithms selects the task with the smallest absolute deadline as the one to be executed first, while the CBS ensures each task to run for at most its runtime every (relative) deadline length time interval, avoiding any interference between different tasks (bandwidth isolation).

sched/deadline: Add SCHED_DEADLINE inheritance logic Some method to deal with rt-mutexes and make sched_dl interact with the current PI-coded is needed, raising all but trivial issues, that needs (according to us) to be solved with some restructuring of the pi-code (i.e., going toward a proxy execution-ish implementation). This is under development, in the meanwhile, as a temporary solution, what this commits does is: - ensure a pi-lock owner with waiters is never throttled down. Instead, when it runs out of runtime, it immediately gets replenished and it's deadline is postponed; - the scheduling parameters (relative deadline and default runtime) used for that replenishments --during the whole period it holds the pi-lock-- are the ones of the waiting task with earliest deadline. Acting this way, we provide some kind of boosting to the lock-owner, still by using the existing (actually, slightly modified by the previous commit) pi-architecture. We would stress the fact that this is only a surely needed, all but clean solution to the problem. In the end it's only a way to re-start discussion within the community.

Problem is that boosted entities (Priority Inheritance) use static DEADLINE parameters of the top priority waiter. However, there might be cases where top waiter could be a non-DEADLINE entity that is currently boosted by a DEADLINE entity from a different lock chain (i.e., nested priority chains involving entities of non-DEADLINE classes). In this case, top waiter static DEADLINE parameters could be null (initialized to 0 at fork()) and replenish_dl_entity() would hit a BUG().

sched/uclamp: Add CPU's clamp buckets refcounting 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.

sched/uclamp: Extend sched_setattr() to support utilization clamping 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.

sched/uclamp: Add CPU's clamp buckets refcounting 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.

rcu: Speed up expedited GPs when interrupting RCU reader In PREEMPT kernels, an expedited grace period might send an IPI to a CPU that is executing an RCU read-side critical section. In that case, it would be nice if the rcu_read_unlock() directly interacted with the RCU core code to immediately report the quiescent state. And this does happen in the case where the reader has been preempted. But it would also be a nice performance optimization if immediate reporting also happened in the preemption-free case. This commit therefore adds an ->exp_hint field to the task_struct structure's ->rcu_read_unlock_special field. The IPI handler sets this hint when it has interrupted an RCU read-side critical section, and this causes the outermost rcu_read_unlock() call to invoke rcu_read_unlock_special(), which, if preemption is enabled, reports the quiescent state immediately. If preemption is disabled, then the report is required to be deferred until preemption (or bottom halves or interrupts or whatever) is re-enabled. Because this is a hint, it does nothing for more complicated cases. For example, if the IPI interrupts an RCU reader, but interrupts are disabled across the rcu_read_unlock(), but another rcu_read_lock() is executed before interrupts are re-enabled, the hint will already have been cleared. If you do crazy things like this, reporting will be deferred until some later RCU_SOFTIRQ handler, context switch, cond_resched(), or similar.

sched/core: Convert task_struct.usage to refcount_t atomic_t variables are currently used to implement reference counters with the following properties: - counter is initialized to 1 using atomic_set() - a resource is freed upon counter reaching zero - once counter reaches zero, its further increments aren't allowed - counter schema uses basic atomic operations (set, inc, inc_not_zero, dec_and_test, etc.) Such atomic variables should be converted to a newly provided refcount_t type and API that prevents accidental counter overflows and underflows. This is important since overflows and underflows can lead to use-after-free situation and be exploitable. The variable task_struct.usage is used as pure reference counter. Convert it to refcount_t and fix up the operations. ** Important note for maintainers: Some functions from refcount_t API defined in lib/refcount.c have different memory ordering guarantees than their atomic counterparts. The full comparison can be seen in https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/11/15/57 and it is hopefully soon in state to be merged to the documentation tree. Normally the differences should not matter since refcount_t provides enough guarantees to satisfy the refcounting use cases, but in some rare cases it might matter. Please double check that you don't have some undocumented memory guarantees for this variable usage. For the task_struct.usage it might make a difference in following places: - put_task_struct(): decrement in refcount_dec_and_test() only provides RELEASE ordering and control dependency on success vs. fully ordered atomic counterpart Suggested-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Signed-off-by: Elena Reshetova <elena.reshetova@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Reviewed-by: David Windsor <dwindsor@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Hans Liljestrand <ishkamiel@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Andrea Parri <andrea.parri@amarulasolutions.com> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: akpm@linux-foundation.org Cc: viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/1547814450-18902-5-git-send-email-elena.reshetova@intel.com Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

[PATCH] sched: implement smpnice Problem: The introduction of separate run queues per CPU has brought with it "nice" enforcement problems that are best described by a simple example. For the sake of argument suppose that on a single CPU machine with a nice==19 hard spinner and a nice==0 hard spinner running that the nice==0 task gets 95% of the CPU and the nice==19 task gets 5% of the CPU. Now suppose that there is a system with 2 CPUs and 2 nice==19 hard spinners and 2 nice==0 hard spinners running. The user of this system would be entitled to expect that the nice==0 tasks each get 95% of a CPU and the nice==19 tasks only get 5% each. However, whether this expectation is met is pretty much down to luck as there are four equally likely distributions of the tasks to the CPUs that the load balancing code will consider to be balanced with loads of 2.0 for each CPU. Two of these distributions involve one nice==0 and one nice==19 task per CPU and in these circumstances the users expectations will be met. The other two distributions both involve both nice==0 tasks being on one CPU and both nice==19 being on the other CPU and each task will get 50% of a CPU and the user's expectations will not be met. Solution: The solution to this problem that is implemented in the attached patch is to use weighted loads when determining if the system is balanced and, when an imbalance is detected, to move an amount of weighted load between run queues (as opposed to a number of tasks) to restore the balance. Once again, the easiest way to explain why both of these measures are necessary is to use a simple example. Suppose that (in a slight variation of the above example) that we have a two CPU system with 4 nice==0 and 4 nice=19 hard spinning tasks running and that the 4 nice==0 tasks are on one CPU and the 4 nice==19 tasks are on the other CPU. The weighted loads for the two CPUs would be 4.0 and 0.2 respectively and the load balancing code would move 2 tasks resulting in one CPU with a load of 2.0 and the other with load of 2.2. If this was considered to be a big enough imbalance to justify moving a task and that task was moved using the current move_tasks() then it would move the highest priority task that it found and this would result in one CPU with a load of 3.0 and the other with a load of 1.2 which would result in the movement of a task in the opposite direction and so on -- infinite loop. If, on the other hand, an amount of load to be moved is calculated from the imbalance (in this case 0.1) and move_tasks() skips tasks until it find ones whose contributions to the weighted load are less than this amount it would move two of the nice==19 tasks resulting in a system with 2 nice==0 and 2 nice=19 on each CPU with loads of 2.1 for each CPU. One of the advantages of this mechanism is that on a system where all tasks have nice==0 the load balancing calculations would be mathematically identical to the current load balancing code. Notes: struct task_struct: has a new field load_weight which (in a trade off of space for speed) stores the contribution that this task makes to a CPU's weighted load when it is runnable. struct runqueue: has a new field raw_weighted_load which is the sum of the load_weight values for the currently runnable tasks on this run queue. This field always needs to be updated when nr_running is updated so two new inline functions inc_nr_running() and dec_nr_running() have been created to make sure that this happens. This also offers a convenient way to optimize away this part of the smpnice mechanism when CONFIG_SMP is not defined. int try_to_wake_up(): in this function the value SCHED_LOAD_BALANCE is used to represent the load contribution of a single task in various calculations in the code that decides which CPU to put the waking task on. While this would be a valid on a system where the nice values for the runnable tasks were distributed evenly around zero it will lead to anomalous load balancing if the distribution is skewed in either direction. To overcome this problem SCHED_LOAD_SCALE has been replaced by the load_weight for the relevant task or by the average load_weight per task for the queue in question (as appropriate). int move_tasks(): The modifications to this function were complicated by the fact that active_load_balance() uses it to move exactly one task without checking whether an imbalance actually exists. This precluded the simple overloading of max_nr_move with max_load_move and necessitated the addition of the latter as an extra argument to the function. The internal implementation is then modified to move up to max_nr_move tasks and max_load_move of weighted load. This slightly complicates the code where move_tasks() is called and if ever active_load_balance() is changed to not use move_tasks() the implementation of move_tasks() should be simplified accordingly. struct sched_group *find_busiest_group(): Similar to try_to_wake_up(), there are places in this function where SCHED_LOAD_SCALE is used to represent the load contribution of a single task and the same issues are created. A similar solution is adopted except that it is now the average per task contribution to a group's load (as opposed to a run queue) that is required. As this value is not directly available from the group it is calculated on the fly as the queues in the groups are visited when determining the busiest group. A key change to this function is that it is no longer to scale down *imbalance on exit as move_tasks() uses the load in its scaled form. void set_user_nice(): has been modified to update the task's load_weight field when it's nice value and also to ensure that its run queue's raw_weighted_load field is updated if it was runnable. From: "Siddha, Suresh B" <suresh.b.siddha@intel.com> With smpnice, sched groups with highest priority tasks can mask the imbalance between the other sched groups with in the same domain. This patch fixes some of the listed down scenarios by not considering the sched groups which are lightly loaded. a) on a simple 4-way MP system, if we have one high priority and 4 normal priority tasks, with smpnice we would like to see the high priority task scheduled on one cpu, two other cpus getting one normal task each and the fourth cpu getting the remaining two normal tasks. but with current smpnice extra normal priority task keeps jumping from one cpu to another cpu having the normal priority task. This is because of the busiest_has_loaded_cpus, nr_loaded_cpus logic.. We are not including the cpu with high priority task in max_load calculations but including that in total and avg_load calcuations.. leading to max_load < avg_load and load balance between cpus running normal priority tasks(2 Vs 1) will always show imbalanace as one normal priority and the extra normal priority task will keep moving from one cpu to another cpu having normal priority task.. b) 4-way system with HT (8 logical processors). Package-P0 T0 has a highest priority task, T1 is idle. Package-P1 Both T0 and T1 have 1 normal priority task each.. P2 and P3 are idle. With this patch, one of the normal priority tasks on P1 will be moved to P2 or P3.. c) With the current weighted smp nice calculations, it doesn't always make sense to look at the highest weighted runqueue in the busy group.. Consider a load balance scenario on a DP with HT system, with Package-0 containing one high priority and one low priority, Package-1 containing one low priority(with other thread being idle).. Package-1 thinks that it need to take the low priority thread from Package-0. And find_busiest_queue() returns the cpu thread with highest priority task.. And ultimately(with help of active load balance) we move high priority task to Package-1. And same continues with Package-0 now, moving high priority task from package-1 to package-0.. Even without the presence of active load balance, load balance will fail to balance the above scenario.. Fix find_busiest_queue to use "imbalance" when it is lightly loaded.

sched/fair: Use a recently used CPU as an idle candidate and the basis for SIS The select_idle_sibling() (SIS) rewrite in commit: 10e2f1acd010 ("sched/core: Rewrite and improve select_idle_siblings()") ... replaced a domain iteration with a search that broadly speaking does a wrapped walk of the scheduler domain sharing a last-level-cache. While this had a number of improvements, one consequence is that two tasks that share a waker/wakee relationship push each other around a socket. Even though two tasks may be active, all cores are evenly used. This is great from a search perspective and spreads a load across individual cores, but it has adverse consequences for cpufreq. As each CPU has relatively low utilisation, cpufreq may decide the utilisation is too low to used a higher P-state and overall computation throughput suffers. While individual cpufreq and cpuidle drivers may compensate by artifically boosting P-state (at c0) or avoiding lower C-states (during idle), it does not help if hardware-based cpufreq (e.g. HWP) is used. This patch tracks a recently used CPU based on what CPU a task was running on when it last was a waker a CPU it was recently using when a task is a wakee. During SIS, the recently used CPU is used as a target if it's still allowed by the task and is idle. The benefit may be non-obvious so consider an example of two tasks communicating back and forth. Task A may be an application doing IO where task B is a kworker or kthread like journald. Task A may issue IO, wake B and B wakes up A on completion. With the existing scheme this may look like the following (potentially different IDs if SMT is in use but similar principal applies). A (cpu 0) wake B (wakes on cpu 1) B (cpu 1) wake A (wakes on cpu 2) A (cpu 2) wake B (wakes on cpu 3) etc. A careful reader may wonder why CPU 0 was not idle when B wakes A the first time and it's simply due to the fact that A can be rescheduled to another CPU and the pattern is that prev == target when B tries to wakeup A and the information about CPU 0 has been lost. With this patch, the pattern is more likely to be: A (cpu 0) wake B (wakes on cpu 1) B (cpu 1) wake A (wakes on cpu 0) A (cpu 0) wake B (wakes on cpu 1) etc i.e. two communicating casts are more likely to use just two cores instead of all available cores sharing a LLC. The most dramatic speedup was noticed on dbench using the XFS filesystem on UMA as clients interact heavily with workqueues in that configuration. Note that a similar speedup is not observed on ext4 as the wakeup pattern is different: 4.15.0-rc9 4.15.0-rc9 waprev-v1 biasancestor-v1 Hmean 1 287.54 ( 0.00%) 817.01 ( 184.14%) Hmean 2 1268.12 ( 0.00%) 1781.24 ( 40.46%) Hmean 4 1739.68 ( 0.00%) 1594.47 ( -8.35%) Hmean 8 2464.12 ( 0.00%) 2479.56 ( 0.63%) Hmean 64 1455.57 ( 0.00%) 1434.68 ( -1.44%) The results can be less dramatic on NUMA where automatic balancing interferes with the test. It's also known that network benchmarks running on localhost also benefit quite a bit from this patch (roughly 10% on netperf RR for UDP and TCP depending on the machine). Hackbench also seens small improvements (6-11% depending on machine and thread count). The facebook schbench was also tested but in most cases showed little or no different to wakeup latencies.

sched/uclamp: Add CPU's clamp buckets refcounting 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.

#ifdef CONFIG_UCLAMP_TASK
sched/uclamp: Add a new sysctl to control RT default boost value 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 1a00d999971c ("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.

sched/uclamp: Add system default clamps 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.

*/
sched/uclamp: Add CPU's clamp buckets refcounting 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.

rcu: Add a TINY_PREEMPT_RCU Implement a small-memory-footprint uniprocessor-only implementation of preemptible RCU. This implementation uses but a single blocked-tasks list rather than the combinatorial number used per leaf rcu_node by TREE_PREEMPT_RCU, which reduces memory consumption and greatly simplifies processing. This version also takes advantage of uniprocessor execution to accelerate grace periods in the case where there are no readers. The general design is otherwise broadly similar to that of TREE_PREEMPT_RCU. This implementation is a step towards having RCU implementation driven off of the SMP and PREEMPT kernel configuration variables, which can happen once this implementation has accumulated sufficient experience. Removed ACCESS_ONCE() from __rcu_read_unlock() and added barrier() as suggested by Steve Rostedt in order to avoid the compiler-reordering issue noted by Mathieu Desnoyers (http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/8/16/183). As can be seen below, CONFIG_TINY_PREEMPT_RCU represents almost 5Kbyte savings compared to CONFIG_TREE_PREEMPT_RCU. Of course, for non-real-time workloads, CONFIG_TINY_RCU is even better.

rcu-tasks: Add an RCU Tasks Trace to simplify protection of tracing hooks 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/ This effort benefited greatly from off-list discussions of BPF requirements with Alexei Starovoitov and Andrii Nakryiko.

psi: pressure stall information for CPU, memory, and IO When systems are overcommitted and resources become contended, it's hard to tell exactly the impact this has on workload productivity, or how close the system is to lockups and OOM kills. In particular, when machines work multiple jobs concurrently, the impact of overcommit in terms of latency and throughput on the individual job can be enormous. In order to maximize hardware utilization without sacrificing individual job health or risk complete machine lockups, this patch implements a way to quantify resource pressure in the system. A kernel built with CONFIG_PSI=y creates files in /proc/pressure/ that expose the percentage of time the system is stalled on CPU, memory, or IO, respectively. Stall states are aggregate versions of the per-task delay accounting delays: cpu: some tasks are runnable but not executing on a CPU memory: tasks are reclaiming, or waiting for swapin or thrashing cache io: tasks are waiting for io completions These percentages of walltime can be thought of as pressure percentages, and they give a general sense of system health and productivity loss incurred by resource overcommit. They can also indicate when the system is approaching lockup scenarios and OOMs. To do this, psi keeps track of the task states associated with each CPU and samples the time they spend in stall states. Every 2 seconds, the samples are averaged across CPUs - weighted by the CPUs' non-idle time to eliminate artifacts from unused CPUs - and translated into percentages of walltime. A running average of those percentages is maintained over 10s, 1m, and 5m periods (similar to the loadaverage).

Whereas prior to commit c6e7bd7afaeb ("sched/core: Optimize ttwu() spinning on p->on_cpu") the p->on_cpu handoff serialized access to p->sched_remote_wakeup (just as it still does with p->sched_contributes_to_load) that commit broke that by calling ttwu_queue_wakelist() with p->on_cpu != 0. However, due to p->XXX = X ttwu() schedule() if (p->on_rq && ...) // false smp_mb__after_spinlock() if (smp_load_acquire(&p->on_cpu) && deactivate_task() ttwu_queue_wakelist()) p->on_rq = 0; p->sched_remote_wakeup = Y; We can be sure any 'current' store is complete and 'current' is guaranteed asleep. Therefore we can move p->sched_remote_wakeup into the current flags word. Note: while the observed failure was loadavg accounting gone wrong due to ttwu() cobbering p->sched_contributes_to_load, the reverse problem is also possible where schedule() clobbers p->sched_remote_wakeup, this could result in enqueue_entity() wrecking ->vruntime and causing scheduling artifacts.

signal: consolidate {TS,TLF}_RESTORE_SIGMASK code In general, there's no need for the "restore sigmask" flag to live in ti->flags. alpha, ia64, microblaze, powerpc, sh, sparc (64-bit only), tile, and x86 use essentially identical alternative implementations, placing the flag in ti->status. Replace those optimized implementations with an equally good common implementation that stores it in a bitfield in struct task_struct and drop the custom implementations. Additional architectures can opt in by removing their TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK defines.

#ifdef CONFIG_MEMCG
memcg, oom: move out_of_memory back to the charge path Commit 3812c8c8f395 ("mm: memcg: do not trap chargers with full callstack on OOM") has changed the ENOMEM semantic of memcg charges. Rather than invoking the oom killer from the charging context it delays the oom killer to the page fault path (pagefault_out_of_memory). This in turn means that many users (e.g. slab or g-u-p) will get ENOMEM when the corresponding memcg hits the hard limit and the memcg is is OOM. This is behavior is inconsistent with !memcg case where the oom killer is invoked from the allocation context and the allocator keeps retrying until it succeeds. The difference in the behavior is user visible. mmap(MAP_POPULATE) might result in not fully populated ranges while the mmap return code doesn't tell that to the userspace. Random syscalls might fail with ENOMEM etc. The primary motivation of the different memcg oom semantic was the deadlock avoidance. Things have changed since then, though. We have an async oom teardown by the oom reaper now and so we do not have to rely on the victim to tear down its memory anymore. Therefore we can return to the original semantic as long as the memcg oom killer is not handed over to the users space. There is still one thing to be careful about here though. If the oom killer is not able to make any forward progress - e.g. because there is no eligible task to kill - then we have to bail out of the charge path to prevent from same class of deadlocks. We have basically two options here. Either we fail the charge with ENOMEM or force the charge and allow overcharge. The first option has been considered more harmful than useful because rare inconsistencies in the ENOMEM behavior is hard to test for and error prone. Basically the same reason why the page allocator doesn't fail allocations under such conditions. The later might allow runaways but those should be really unlikely unless somebody misconfigures the system. E.g. allowing to migrate tasks away from the memcg to a different unlimited memcg with move_charge_at_immigrate disabled.

cgroup, kthread: close race window where new kthreads can be migrated to non-root cgroups Creation of a kthread goes through a couple interlocked stages between the kthread itself and its creator. Once the new kthread starts running, it initializes itself and wakes up the creator. The creator then can further configure the kthread and then let it start doing its job by waking it up. In this configuration-by-creator stage, the creator is the only one that can wake it up but the kthread is visible to userland. When altering the kthread's attributes from userland is allowed, this is fine; however, for cases where CPU affinity is critical, kthread_bind() is used to first disable affinity changes from userland and then set the affinity. This also prevents the kthread from being migrated into non-root cgroups as that can affect the CPU affinity and many other things. Unfortunately, the cgroup side of protection is racy. While the PF_NO_SETAFFINITY flag prevents further migrations, userland can win the race before the creator sets the flag with kthread_bind() and put the kthread in a non-root cgroup, which can lead to all sorts of problems including incorrect CPU affinity and starvation. This bug got triggered by userland which periodically tries to migrate all processes in the root cpuset cgroup to a non-root one. Per-cpu workqueue workers got caught while being created and ended up with incorrected CPU affinity breaking concurrency management and sometimes stalling workqueue execution. This patch adds task->no_cgroup_migration which disallows the task to be migrated by userland. kthreadd starts with the flag set making every child kthread start in the root cgroup with migration disallowed. The flag is cleared after the kthread finishes initialization by which time PF_NO_SETAFFINITY is set if the kthread should stay in the root cgroup. It'd be better to wait for the initialization instead of failing but I couldn't think of a way of implementing that without adding either a new PF flag, or sleeping and retrying from waiting side. Even if userland depends on changing cgroup membership of a kthread, it either has to be synchronized with kthread_create() or periodically repeat, so it's unlikely that this would break anything. v2: Switch to a simpler implementation using a new task_struct bit field suggested by Oleg.

cgroup: cgroup v2 freezer 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.

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

Kbuild: rename CC_STACKPROTECTOR[_STRONG] config variables The changes to automatically test for working stack protector compiler support in the Kconfig files removed the special STACKPROTECTOR_AUTO option that picked the strongest stack protector that the compiler supported. That was all a nice cleanup - it makes no sense to have the AUTO case now that the Kconfig phase can just determine the compiler support directly. HOWEVER. It also meant that doing "make oldconfig" would now _disable_ the strong stackprotector if you had AUTO enabled, because in a legacy config file, the sane stack protector configuration would look like CONFIG_HAVE_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y # CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_NONE is not set # CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_REGULAR is not set # CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG is not set CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_AUTO=y and when you ran this through "make oldconfig" with the Kbuild changes, it would ask you about the regular CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR (that had been renamed from CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_REGULAR to just CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR), but it would think that the STRONG version used to be disabled (because it was really enabled by AUTO), and would disable it in the new config, resulting in: CONFIG_HAVE_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y CONFIG_CC_HAS_STACKPROTECTOR_NONE=y CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y # CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG is not set CONFIG_CC_HAS_SANE_STACKPROTECTOR=y That's dangerously subtle - people could suddenly find themselves with the weaker stack protector setup without even realizing. The solution here is to just rename not just the old RECULAR stack protector option, but also the strong one. This does that by just removing the CC_ prefix entirely for the user choices, because it really is not about the compiler support (the compiler support now instead automatially impacts _visibility_ of the options to users). This results in "make oldconfig" actually asking the user for their choice, so that we don't have any silent subtle security model changes. The end result would generally look like this: CONFIG_HAVE_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y CONFIG_CC_HAS_STACKPROTECTOR_NONE=y CONFIG_STACKPROTECTOR=y CONFIG_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG=y CONFIG_CC_HAS_SANE_STACKPROTECTOR=y where the "CC_" versions really are about internal compiler infrastructure, not the user selections.

posix-cpu-timers: Provide mechanisms to defer timer handling to task_work Running posix CPU timers in hard interrupt context has a few downsides: - For PREEMPT_RT it cannot work as the expiry code needs to take sighand lock, which is a 'sleeping spinlock' in RT. The original RT approach of offloading the posix CPU timer handling into a high priority thread was clumsy and provided no real benefit in general. - For fine grained accounting it's just wrong to run this in context of the timer interrupt because that way a process specific CPU time is accounted to the timer interrupt. - Long running timer interrupts caused by a large amount of expiring timers which can be created and armed by unpriviledged user space. There is no hard requirement to expire them in interrupt context. If the signal is targeted at the task itself then it won't be delivered before the task returns to user space anyway. If the signal is targeted at a supervisor process then it might be slightly delayed, but posix CPU timers are inaccurate anyway due to the fact that they are tied to the tick. Provide infrastructure to schedule task work which allows splitting the posix CPU timer code into a quick check in interrupt context and a thread context expiry and signal delivery function. This has to be enabled by architectures as it requires that the architecture specific KVM implementation handles pending task work before exiting to guest mode.

keys: Cache result of request_key*() temporarily in task_struct 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.

In an automated setup we need to strictly order CPU lockup < RCU stall < workqueue lockup < task hung < silent loss, so that RCU stall is not detected as task hung and task hung is not detected as silent machine loss. The large variance in task hung detection timeout requires setting silent machine loss timeout to a very large value (e.g. if task hung is 3 mins, then silent loss need to be set to ~7 mins). The additional 3 minutes significantly reduce testing efficiency because usually we crash kernel within a minute, and this can add hours to bug localization process as it needs to do dozens of tests. Allow setting checking interval separately from timeout. This allows to set timeout to, say, 3 minutes, but checking interval to 10 secs. The interval is controlled via a new hung_task_check_interval_secs sysctl, similar to the existing hung_task_timeout_secs sysctl. The default value of 0 results in the current behavior: checking interval is equal to timeout.

signal: Allow tasks to cache one sigqueue struct The idea for this originates from the real time tree to make signal delivery for realtime applications more efficient. In quite some of these application scenarios a control tasks signals workers to start their computations. There is usually only one signal per worker on flight. This works nicely as long as the kmem cache allocations do not hit the slow path and cause latencies. To cure this an optimistic caching was introduced (limited to RT tasks) which allows a task to cache a single sigqueue in a pointer in task_struct instead of handing it back to the kmem cache after consuming a signal. When the next signal is sent to the task then the cached sigqueue is used instead of allocating a new one. This solved the problem for this set of application scenarios nicely. The task cache is not preallocated so the first signal sent to a task goes always to the cache allocator. The cached sigqueue stays around until the task exits and is freed when task::sighand is dropped. After posting this solution for mainline the discussion came up whether this would be useful in general and should not be limited to realtime tasks: https://lore.kernel.org/r/m11rcu7nbr.fsf@fess.ebiederm.org One concern leading to the original limitation was to avoid a large amount of pointlessly cached sigqueues in alive tasks. The other concern was vs. RLIMIT_SIGPENDING as these cached sigqueues are not accounted for. The accounting problem is real, but on the other hand slightly academic. After gathering some statistics it turned out that after boot of a regular distro install there are less than 10 sigqueues cached in ~1500 tasks. In case of a 'mass fork and fire signal to child' scenario the extra 80 bytes of memory per task are well in the noise of the overall memory consumption of the fork bomb. If this should be limited then this would need an extra counter in struct user, more atomic instructions and a seperate rlimit. Yet another tunable which is mostly unused. The caching is actually used. After boot and a full kernel compile on a 64CPU machine with make -j128 the number of 'allocations' looks like this: From slab: 23996 From task cache: 52223 I.e. it reduces the number of slab cache operations by ~68%. A typical pattern there is: <...>-58490 __sigqueue_alloc: for 58488 from slab ffff8881132df460 <...>-58488 __sigqueue_free: cache ffff8881132df460 <...>-58488 __sigqueue_alloc: for 1149 from cache ffff8881103dc550 bash-1149 exit_task_sighand: free ffff8881132df460 bash-1149 __sigqueue_free: cache ffff8881103dc550 The interesting sequence is that the exiting task 58488 grabs the sigqueue from bash's task cache to signal exit and bash sticks it back into it's own cache. Lather, rinse and repeat. The caching is probably not noticable for the general use case, but the benefit for latency sensitive applications is clear. While kmem caches are usually just serving from the fast path the slab merging (default) can depending on the usage pattern of the merged slabs cause occasional slow path allocations. The time spared per cached entry is a few micro seconds per signal which is not relevant for e.g. a kernel build, but for signal heavy workloads it's measurable. As there is no real downside of this caching mechanism making it unconditionally available is preferred over more conditional code or new magic tunables.

kernel: Implement selective syscall userspace redirection Introduce a mechanism to quickly disable/enable syscall handling for a specific process and redirect to userspace via SIGSYS. This is useful for processes with parts that require syscall redirection and parts that don't, but who need to perform this boundary crossing really fast, without paying the cost of a system call to reconfigure syscall handling on each boundary transition. This is particularly important for Windows games running over Wine. The proposed interface looks like this: prctl(PR_SET_SYSCALL_USER_DISPATCH, <op>, <off>, <length>, [selector]) The range [<offset>,<offset>+<length>) is a part of the process memory map that is allowed to by-pass the redirection code and dispatch syscalls directly, such that in fast paths a process doesn't need to disable the trap nor the kernel has to check the selector. This is essential to return from SIGSYS to a blocked area without triggering another SIGSYS from rt_sigreturn. selector is an optional pointer to a char-sized userspace memory region that has a key switch for the mechanism. This key switch is set to either PR_SYS_DISPATCH_ON, PR_SYS_DISPATCH_OFF to enable and disable the redirection without calling the kernel. The feature is meant to be set per-thread and it is disabled on fork/clone/execv. Internally, this doesn't add overhead to the syscall hot path, and it requires very little per-architecture support. I avoided using seccomp, even though it duplicates some functionality, due to previous feedback that maybe it shouldn't mix with seccomp since it is not a security mechanism. And obviously, this should never be considered a security mechanism, since any part of the program can by-pass it by using the syscall dispatcher. For the sysinfo benchmark, which measures the overhead added to executing a native syscall that doesn't require interception, the overhead using only the direct dispatcher region to issue syscalls is pretty much irrelevant. The overhead of using the selector goes around 40ns for a native (unredirected) syscall in my system, and it is (as expected) dominated by the supervisor-mode user-address access. In fact, with SMAP off, the overhead is consistently less than 5ns on my test box.

signal: Extend exec_id to 64bits 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.

sched: Implement lockless wake-queues This is useful for locking primitives that can effect multiple wakeups per operation and want to avoid lock internal lock contention by delaying the wakeups until we've released the lock internal locks. Alternatively it can be used to avoid issuing multiple wakeups, and thus save a few cycles, in packet processing. Queue all target tasks and wakeup once you've processed all packets. That way you avoid waking the target task multiple times if there were multiple packets for the same task. Properties of a wake_q are: - Lockless, as queue head must reside on the stack. - Being a queue, maintains wakeup order passed by the callers. This can be important for otherwise, in scenarios where highly contended locks could affect any reliance on lock fairness. - A queued task cannot be added again until it is woken up. This patch adds the needed infrastructure into the scheduler code and uses the new wake_list to delay the futex wakeups until after we've released the hash bucket locks.

lockdep: Introduce wait-type checks 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.

[PATCH] lockdep: core Do 'make oldconfig' and accept all the defaults for new config options - reboot into the kernel and if everything goes well it should boot up fine and you should have /proc/lockdep and /proc/lockdep_stats files. Typically if the lock validator finds some problem it will print out voluminous debug output that begins with "BUG: ..." and which syslog output can be used by kernel developers to figure out the precise locking scenario. What does the lock validator do? It "observes" and maps all locking rules as they occur dynamically (as triggered by the kernel's natural use of spinlocks, rwlocks, mutexes and rwsems). Whenever the lock validator subsystem detects a new locking scenario, it validates this new rule against the existing set of rules. If this new rule is consistent with the existing set of rules then the new rule is added transparently and the kernel continues as normal. If the new rule could create a deadlock scenario then this condition is printed out. When determining validity of locking, all possible "deadlock scenarios" are considered: assuming arbitrary number of CPUs, arbitrary irq context and task context constellations, running arbitrary combinations of all the existing locking scenarios. In a typical system this means millions of separate scenarios. This is why we call it a "locking correctness" validator - for all rules that are observed the lock validator proves it with mathematical certainty that a deadlock could not occur (assuming that the lock validator implementation itself is correct and its internal data structures are not corrupted by some other kernel subsystem). [see more details and conditionals of this statement in include/linux/lockdep.h and Documentation/lockdep-design.txt] Furthermore, this "all possible scenarios" property of the validator also enables the finding of complex, highly unlikely multi-CPU multi-context races via single single-context rules, increasing the likelyhood of finding bugs drastically. In practical terms: the lock validator already found a bug in the upstream kernel that could only occur on systems with 3 or more CPUs, and which needed 3 very unlikely code sequences to occur at once on the 3 CPUs. That bug was found and reported on a single-CPU system (!). So in essence a race will be found "piecemail-wise", triggering all the necessary components for the race, without having to reproduce the race scenario itself! In its short existence the lock validator found and reported many bugs before they actually caused a real deadlock. To further increase the efficiency of the validator, the mapping is not per "lock instance", but per "lock-class". For example, all struct inode objects in the kernel have inode->inotify_mutex. If there are 10,000 inodes cached, then there are 10,000 lock objects. But ->inotify_mutex is a single "lock type", and all locking activities that occur against ->inotify_mutex are "unified" into this single lock-class. The advantage of the lock-class approach is that all historical ->inotify_mutex uses are mapped into a single (and as narrow as possible) set of locking rules - regardless of how many different tasks or inode structures it took to build this set of rules. The set of rules persist during the lifetime of the kernel. To see the rough magnitude of checking that the lock validator does, here's a portion of /proc/lockdep_stats, fresh after bootup: lock-classes: 694 [max: 2048] direct dependencies: 1598 [max: 8192] indirect dependencies: 17896 all direct dependencies: 16206 dependency chains: 1910 [max: 8192] in-hardirq chains: 17 in-softirq chains: 105 in-process chains: 1065 stack-trace entries: 38761 [max: 131072] combined max dependencies: 2033928 hardirq-safe locks: 24 hardirq-unsafe locks: 176 softirq-safe locks: 53 softirq-unsafe locks: 137 irq-safe locks: 59 irq-unsafe locks: 176 The lock validator has observed 1598 actual single-thread locking patterns, and has validated all possible 2033928 distinct locking scenarios.

If there are 10,000 inodes cached, then there are 10,000 lock objects. But ->inotify_mutex is a single "lock type", and all locking activities that occur against ->inotify_mutex are "unified" into this single lock-class. The advantage of the lock-class approach is that all historical ->inotify_mutex uses are mapped into a single (and as narrow as possible) set of locking rules - regardless of how many different tasks or inode structures it took to build this set of rules. The set of rules persist during the lifetime of the kernel. To see the rough magnitude of checking that the lock validator does, here's a portion of /proc/lockdep_stats, fresh after bootup: lock-classes: 694 [max: 2048] direct dependencies: 1598 [max: 8192] indirect dependencies: 17896 all direct dependencies: 16206 dependency chains: 1910 [max: 8192] in-hardirq chains: 17 in-softirq chains: 105 in-process chains: 1065 stack-trace entries: 38761 [max: 131072] combined max dependencies: 2033928 hardirq-safe locks: 24 hardirq-unsafe locks: 176 softirq-safe locks: 53 softirq-unsafe locks: 137 irq-safe locks: 59 irq-unsafe locks: 176 The lock validator has observed 1598 actual single-thread locking patterns, and has validated all possible 2033928 distinct locking scenarios.

UBSAN: run-time undefined behavior sanity checker UBSAN uses compile-time instrumentation to catch undefined behavior (UB). Compiler inserts code that perform certain kinds of checks before operations that could cause UB. If check fails (i.e. UB detected) __ubsan_handle_* function called to print error message. So the most of the work is done by compiler. This patch just implements ubsan handlers printing errors. GCC has this capability since 4.9.x [1] (see -fsanitize=undefined option and its suboptions).

When stacked block devices are in-use (e.g. md or dm), the recursive calls to generic_make_request can use up a lot of space, and we would rather they didn't. As generic_make_request is a void function, and as it is generally not expected that it will have any effect immediately, it is safe to delay any call to generic_make_request until there is sufficient stack space available. As ->bi_next is reserved for the driver to use, it can have no valid value when generic_make_request is called, and as __make_request implicitly assumes it will be NULL (ELEVATOR_BACK_MERGE fork of switch) we can be certain that all callers set it to NULL. We can therefore safely use bi_next to link pending requests together, providing we clear it before making the real call. So, we choose to allow each thread to only be active in one generic_make_request at a time. If a subsequent (recursive) call is made, the bio is linked into a per-thread list, and is handled when the active call completes. As the list of pending bios is per-thread, there are no locking issues to worry about. I say above that it is "safe to delay any call...". There are, however, some behaviours of a make_request_fn which would make it unsafe. These include any behaviour that assumes anything will have changed after a recursive call to generic_make_request. These could include: - waiting for that call to finish and call it's bi_end_io function. md use to sometimes do this (marking the superblock dirty before completing a write) but doesn't any more - inspecting the bio for fields that generic_make_request might change, such as bi_sector or bi_bdev. It is hard to see a good reason for this, and I don't think anyone actually does it. - inspecing the queue to see if, e.g. it is 'full' yet. Again, I think this is very unlikely to be useful, or to be done.

For device-mapper at the moment though it's essential that, while the bio mappings may now get delayed, they still get processed in exactly the same order as they were passed to generic_make_request(). My main concern is whether the timing changes implicit in this patch will make the rare data-corrupting races in the existing snapshot code more likely. (I'm working on a fix for these races, but the unfinished patch is already several hundred lines long.) It would be helpful if some people on this mailing list would test this patch in various scenarios and report back.

mm, compaction: capture a page under direct compaction 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.

psi: pressure stall information for CPU, memory, and IO When systems are overcommitted and resources become contended, it's hard to tell exactly the impact this has on workload productivity, or how close the system is to lockups and OOM kills. In particular, when machines work multiple jobs concurrently, the impact of overcommit in terms of latency and throughput on the individual job can be enormous. In order to maximize hardware utilization without sacrificing individual job health or risk complete machine lockups, this patch implements a way to quantify resource pressure in the system. A kernel built with CONFIG_PSI=y creates files in /proc/pressure/ that expose the percentage of time the system is stalled on CPU, memory, or IO, respectively. Stall states are aggregate versions of the per-task delay accounting delays: cpu: some tasks are runnable but not executing on a CPU memory: tasks are reclaiming, or waiting for swapin or thrashing cache io: tasks are waiting for io completions These percentages of walltime can be thought of as pressure percentages, and they give a general sense of system health and productivity loss incurred by resource overcommit. They can also indicate when the system is approaching lockup scenarios and OOMs. To do this, psi keeps track of the task states associated with each CPU and samples the time they spend in stall states. Every 2 seconds, the samples are averaged across CPUs - weighted by the CPUs' non-idle time to eliminate artifacts from unused CPUs - and translated into percentages of walltime. A running average of those percentages is maintained over 10s, 1m, and 5m periods (similar to the loadaverage).

Task Control Groups: basic task cgroup framework Generic Process Control Groups -------------------------- There have recently been various proposals floating around for resource management/accounting and other task grouping subsystems in the kernel, including ResGroups, User BeanCounters, NSProxy cgroups, and others. These all need the basic abstraction of being able to group together multiple processes in an aggregate, in order to track/limit the resources permitted to those processes, or control other behaviour of the processes, and all implement this grouping in different ways. This patchset provides a framework for tracking and grouping processes into arbitrary "cgroups" and assigning arbitrary state to those groupings, in order to control the behaviour of the cgroup as an aggregate. The intention is that the various resource management and virtualization/cgroup efforts can also become task cgroup clients, with the result that: - the userspace APIs are (somewhat) normalised - it's easier to test e.g. the ResGroups CPU controller in conjunction with the BeanCounters memory controller, or use either of them as the resource-control portion of a virtual server system. - the additional kernel footprint of any of the competing resource management systems is substantially reduced, since it doesn't need to provide process grouping/containment, hence improving their chances of getting into the kernel This patch: Add the main task cgroups framework - the cgroup filesystem, and the basic structures for tracking membership and associating subsystem state objects to tasks.

perf: Do the big rename: Performance Counters -> Performance Events Bye-bye Performance Counters, welcome Performance Events! In the past few months the perfcounters subsystem has grown out its initial role of counting hardware events, and has become (and is becoming) a much broader generic event enumeration, reporting, logging, monitoring, analysis facility. Naming its core object 'perf_counter' and naming the subsystem 'perfcounters' has become more and more of a misnomer. With pending code like hw-breakpoints support the 'counter' name is less and less appropriate. All in one, we've decided to rename the subsystem to 'performance events' and to propagate this rename through all fields, variables and API names. (in an ABI compatible fashion) The word 'event' is also a bit shorter than 'counter' - which makes it slightly more convenient to write/handle as well. Thanks goes to Stephane Eranian who first observed this misnomer and suggested a rename. User-space tooling and ABI compatibility is not affected - this patch should be function-invariant. (Also, defconfigs were not touched to keep the size down.) This patch has been generated via the following script: FILES=$(find * -type f | grep -vE 'oprofile|[^K]config') sed -i \ -e 's/PERF_EVENT_/PERF_RECORD_/g' \ -e 's/PERF_COUNTER/PERF_EVENT/g' \ -e 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g' \ -e 's/nb_counters/nb_events/g' \ -e 's/swcounter/swevent/g' \ -e 's/tpcounter_event/tp_event/g' \ $FILES for N in $(find . -name perf_counter.[ch]); do M=$(echo $N | sed 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g') mv $N $M done FILES=$(find . -name perf_event.*) sed -i \ -e 's/COUNTER_MASK/REG_MASK/g' \ -e 's/COUNTER/EVENT/g' \ -e 's/\<event\>/event_id/g' \ -e 's/counter/event/g' \ -e 's/Counter/Event/g' \ $FILES ... to keep it as correct as possible. This script can also be used by anyone who has pending perfcounters patches - it converts a Linux kernel tree over to the new naming. We tried to time this change to the point in time where the amount of pending patches is the smallest: the end of the merge window. Namespace clashes were fixed up in a preparatory patch - and some stylistic fallout will be fixed up in a subsequent patch. ( NOTE: 'counters' are still the proper terminology when we deal with hardware registers - and these sed scripts are a bit over-eager in renaming them. I've undone some of that, but in case there's something left where 'counter' would be better than 'event' we can undo that on an individual basis instead of touching an otherwise nicely automated patch. ) Suggested-by: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Acked-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Reviewed-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Cc: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Cc: Kyle McMartin <kyle@mcmartin.ca> Cc: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Cc: "David S.

perf_counter: Dynamically allocate tasks' perf_counter_context struct This replaces the struct perf_counter_context in the task_struct with a pointer to a dynamically allocated perf_counter_context struct. The main reason for doing is this is to allow us to transfer a perf_counter_context from one task to another when we do lazy PMU switching in a later patch. This has a few side-benefits: the task_struct becomes a little smaller, we save some memory because only tasks that have perf_counters attached get a perf_counter_context allocated for them, and we can remove the inclusion of <linux/perf_counter.h> in sched.h, meaning that we don't end up recompiling nearly everything whenever perf_counter.h changes. The perf_counter_context structures are reference-counted and freed when the last reference is dropped. A context can have references from its task and the counters on its task. Counters can outlive the task so it is possible that a context will be freed well after its task has exited. Contexts are allocated on fork if the parent had a context, or otherwise the first time that a per-task counter is created on a task. In the latter case, we set the context pointer in the task struct locklessly using an atomic compare-and-exchange operation in case we raced with some other task in creating a context for the subject task. This also removes the task pointer from the perf_counter struct. The task pointer was not used anywhere and would make it harder to move a context from one task to another. Anything that needed to know which task a counter was attached to was already using counter->ctx->task. The __perf_counter_init_context function moves up in perf_counter.c so that it can be called from find_get_context, and now initializes the refcount, but is otherwise unchanged. We were potentially calling list_del_counter twice: once from __perf_counter_exit_task when the task exits and once from __perf_counter_remove_from_context when the counter's fd gets closed. This adds a check in list_del_counter so it doesn't do anything if the counter has already been removed from the lists. Since perf_counter_task_sched_in doesn't do anything if the task doesn't have a context, and leaves cpuctx->task_ctx = NULL, this adds code to __perf_install_in_context to set cpuctx->task_ctx if necessary, i.e. in the case where the current task adds the first counter to itself and thus creates a context for itself. This also adds similar code to __perf_counter_enable to handle a similar situation which can arise when the counters have been disabled using prctl; that also leaves cpuctx->task_ctx = NULL.

mm, mempolicy: stop adjusting current->il_next in mpol_rebind_nodemask() The task->il_next variable stores the next allocation node id for task's MPOL_INTERLEAVE policy. mpol_rebind_nodemask() updates interleave and bind mempolicies due to changing cpuset mems. Currently it also tries to make sure that current->il_next is valid within the updated nodemask. This is bogus, because 1) we are updating potentially any task's mempolicy, not just current, and 2) we might be updating a per-vma mempolicy, not task one. The interleave_nodes() function that uses il_next can cope fine with the value not being within the currently allowed nodes, so this hasn't manifested as an actual issue. We can remove the need for updating il_next completely by changing it to il_prev and store the node id of the previous interleave allocation instead of the next id. Then interleave_nodes() can calculate the next id using the current nodemask and also store it as il_prev, except when querying the next node via do_get_mempolicy().

mm: numa: slow PTE scan rate if migration failures occur Dave Chinner reported the following on https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/3/1/226 Across the board the 4.0-rc1 numbers are much slower, and the degradation is far worse when using the large memory footprint configs. Perf points straight at the cause - this is from 4.0-rc1 on the "-o bhash=101073" config: - 56.07% 56.07% [kernel] [k] default_send_IPI_mask_sequence_phys - default_send_IPI_mask_sequence_phys - 99.99% physflat_send_IPI_mask - 99.37% native_send_call_func_ipi smp_call_function_many - native_flush_tlb_others - 99.85% flush_tlb_page ptep_clear_flush try_to_unmap_one rmap_walk try_to_unmap migrate_pages migrate_misplaced_page - handle_mm_fault - 99.73% __do_page_fault trace_do_page_fault do_async_page_fault + async_page_fault 0.63% native_send_call_func_single_ipi generic_exec_single smp_call_function_single This is showing excessive migration activity even though excessive migrations are meant to get throttled. Normally, the scan rate is tuned on a per-task basis depending on the locality of faults. However, if migrations fail for any reason then the PTE scanner may scan faster if the faults continue to be remote. This means there is higher system CPU overhead and fault trapping at exactly the time we know that migrations cannot happen. This patch tracks when migration failures occur and slows the PTE scanner.

rseq: Introduce restartable sequences system call Expose a new system call allowing each thread to register one userspace memory area to be used as an ABI between kernel and user-space for two purposes: user-space restartable sequences and quick access to read the current CPU number value from user-space. * Restartable sequences (per-cpu atomics) Restartables sequences allow user-space to perform update operations on per-cpu data without requiring heavy-weight atomic operations. The restartable critical sections (percpu atomics) work has been started by Paul Turner and Andrew Hunter. It lets the kernel handle restart of critical sections. [1] [2] The re-implementation proposed here brings a few simplifications to the ABI which facilitates porting to other architectures and speeds up the user-space fast path. Here are benchmarks of various rseq use-cases. Test hardware: arm32: ARMv7 Processor rev 4 (v7l) "Cubietruck", 2-core x86-64: Intel E5-2630 v3@2.40GHz, 16-core, hyperthreading The following benchmarks were all performed on a single thread. * Per-CPU statistic counter increment getcpu+atomic (ns/op) rseq (ns/op) speedup arm32: 344.0 31.4 11.0 x86-64: 15.3 2.0 7.7 * LTTng-UST: write event 32-bit header, 32-bit payload into tracer per-cpu buffer getcpu+atomic (ns/op) rseq (ns/op) speedup arm32: 2502.0 2250.0 1.1 x86-64: 117.4 98.0 1.2 * liburcu percpu: lock-unlock pair, dereference, read/compare word getcpu+atomic (ns/op) rseq (ns/op) speedup arm32: 751.0 128.5 5.8 x86-64: 53.4 28.6 1.9 * jemalloc memory allocator adapted to use rseq Using rseq with per-cpu memory pools in jemalloc at Facebook (based on rseq 2016 implementation): The production workload response-time has 1-2% gain avg. latency, and the P99 overall latency drops by 2-3%. * Reading the current CPU number Speeding up reading the current CPU number on which the caller thread is running is done by keeping the current CPU number up do date within the cpu_id field of the memory area registered by the thread. This is done by making scheduler preemption set the TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME flag on the current thread. Upon return to user-space, a notify-resume handler updates the current CPU value within the registered user-space memory area. User-space can then read the current CPU number directly from memory. Keeping the current cpu id in a memory area shared between kernel and user-space is an improvement over current mechanisms available to read the current CPU number, which has the following benefits over alternative approaches: - 35x speedup on ARM vs system call through glibc - 20x speedup on x86 compared to calling glibc, which calls vdso executing a "lsl" instruction, - 14x speedup on x86 compared to inlined "lsl" instruction, - Unlike vdso approaches, this cpu_id value can be read from an inline assembly, which makes it a useful building block for restartable sequences. - The approach of reading the cpu id through memory mapping shared between kernel and user-space is portable (e.g. ARM), which is not the case for the lsl-based x86 vdso. On x86, yet another possible approach would be to use the gs segment selector to point to user-space per-cpu data. This approach performs similarly to the cpu id cache, but it has two disadvantages: it is not portable, and it is incompatible with existing applications already using the gs segment selector for other purposes. Benchmarking various approaches for reading the current CPU number: ARMv7 Processor rev 4 (v7l) Machine model: Cubietruck - Baseline (empty loop): 8.4 ns - Read CPU from rseq cpu_id: 16.7 ns - Read CPU from rseq cpu_id (lazy register): 19.8 ns - glibc 2.19-0ubuntu6.6 getcpu: 301.8 ns - getcpu system call: 234.9 ns x86-64 Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2630 v3 @ 2.40GHz: - Baseline (empty loop): 0.8 ns - Read CPU from rseq cpu_id: 0.8 ns - Read CPU from rseq cpu_id (lazy register): 0.8 ns - Read using gs segment selector: 0.8 ns - "lsl" inline assembly: 13.0 ns - glibc 2.19-0ubuntu6 getcpu: 16.6 ns - getcpu system call: 53.9 ns - Speed (benchmark taken on v8 of patchset) Running 10 runs of hackbench -l 100000 seems to indicate, contrary to expectations, that enabling CONFIG_RSEQ slightly accelerates the scheduler: Configuration: 2 sockets * 8-core Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2630 v3 @ 2.40GHz (directly on hardware, hyperthreading disabled in BIOS, energy saving disabled in BIOS, turboboost disabled in BIOS, cpuidle.off=1 kernel parameter), with a Linux v4.6 defconfig+localyesconfig, restartable sequences series applied. * CONFIG_RSEQ=n avg.: 41.37 s std.dev.: 0.36 s * CONFIG_RSEQ=y avg.: 40.46 s std.dev.: 0.33 s - Size On x86-64, between CONFIG_RSEQ=n/y, the text size increase of vmlinux is 567 bytes, and the data size increase of vmlinux is 5696 bytes.

struct tlbflush_unmap_batch tlb_ubc;
mm: send one IPI per CPU to TLB flush all entries after unmapping pages An IPI is sent to flush remote TLBs when a page is unmapped that was potentially accesssed by other CPUs. There are many circumstances where this happens but the obvious one is kswapd reclaiming pages belonging to a running process as kswapd and the task are likely running on separate CPUs. On small machines, this is not a significant problem but as machine gets larger with more cores and more memory, the cost of these IPIs can be high. This patch uses a simple structure that tracks CPUs that potentially have TLB entries for pages being unmapped. When the unmapping is complete, the full TLB is flushed on the assumption that a refill cost is lower than flushing individual entries. Architectures wishing to do this must give the following guarantee. If a clean page is unmapped and not immediately flushed, the architecture must guarantee that a write to that linear address from a CPU with a cached TLB entry will trap a page fault. This is essentially what the kernel already depends on but the window is much larger with this patch applied and is worth highlighting. The architecture should consider whether the cost of the full TLB flush is higher than sending an IPI to flush each individual entry. An additional architecture helper called flush_tlb_local is required. It's a trivial wrapper with some accounting in the x86 case. The impact of this patch depends on the workload as measuring any benefit requires both mapped pages co-located on the LRU and memory pressure. The case with the biggest impact is multiple processes reading mapped pages taken from the vm-scalability test suite. The test case uses NR_CPU readers of mapped files that consume 10*RAM. Linear mapped reader on a 4-node machine with 64G RAM and 48 CPUs 4.2.0-rc1 4.2.0-rc1 vanilla flushfull-v7 Ops lru-file-mmap-read-elapsed 159.62 ( 0.00%) 120.68 ( 24.40%) Ops lru-file-mmap-read-time_range 30.59 ( 0.00%) 2.80 ( 90.85%) Ops lru-file-mmap-read-time_stddv 6.70 ( 0.00%) 0.64 ( 90.38%) 4.2.0-rc1 4.2.0-rc1 vanilla flushfull-v7 User 581.00 611.43 System 5804.93 4111.76 Elapsed 161.03 122.12 This is showing that the readers completed 24.40% faster with 29% less system CPU time. From vmstats, it is known that the vanilla kernel was interrupted roughly 900K times per second during the steady phase of the test and the patched kernel was interrupts 180K times per second. The impact is lower on a single socket machine. 4.2.0-rc1 4.2.0-rc1 vanilla flushfull-v7 Ops lru-file-mmap-read-elapsed 25.33 ( 0.00%) 20.38 ( 19.54%) Ops lru-file-mmap-read-time_range 0.91 ( 0.00%) 1.44 (-58.24%) Ops lru-file-mmap-read-time_stddv 0.28 ( 0.00%) 0.47 (-65.34%) 4.2.0-rc1 4.2.0-rc1 vanilla flushfull-v7 User 58.09 57.64 System 111.82 76.56 Elapsed 27.29 22.55 It's still a noticeable improvement with vmstat showing interrupts went from roughly 500K per second to 45K per second. The patch will have no impact on workloads with no memory pressure or have relatively few mapped pages. It will have an unpredictable impact on the workload running on the CPU being flushed as it'll depend on how many TLB entries need to be refilled and how long that takes. Worst case, the TLB will be completely cleared of active entries when the target PFNs were not resident at all.

The solution is to watch for the number of pages dirtied on each CPU in between the calls into balance_dirty_pages(). If it exceeds ratelimit_pages (3% dirty threshold), force call balance_dirty_pages() for a chance to set bdi->dirty_exceeded. In normal situations, this safeguarding condition is not expected to trigger at all. On the sqrt in dirty_poll_interval(): It will serve as an initial guess when dirty pages are still in the freerun area. When dirty pages are floating inside the dirty control scope [freerun, limit], a followup patch will use some refined dirty poll interval to get the desired pause time. thresh-dirty (MB) sqrt 1 16 2 22 4 32 8 45 16 64 32 90 64 128 128 181 256 256 512 362 1024 512 The above table means, given 1MB (or 1GB) gap and the dd tasks polling balance_dirty_pages() on every 16 (or 512) pages, the dirty limit won't be exceeded as long as there are less than 16 (or 512) concurrent dd's. So sqrt naturally leads to less overheads and more safe concurrent tasks for large memory servers, which have large (thresh-freerun) gaps. peter: keep the per-CPU ratelimit for safeguarding the 1k+ tasks case CC: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Reviewed-by: Andrea Righi <andrea@betterlinux.com> Signed-off-by: Wu Fengguang <fengguang.wu@intel.com>

kasan: add kernel address sanitizer infrastructure Kernel Address sanitizer (KASan) is a dynamic memory error detector. It provides fast and comprehensive solution for finding use-after-free and out-of-bounds bugs. KASAN uses compile-time instrumentation for checking every memory access, therefore GCC > v4.9.2 required. v4.9.2 almost works, but has issues with putting symbol aliases into the wrong section, which breaks kasan instrumentation of globals. This patch only adds infrastructure for kernel address sanitizer. It's not available for use yet. The idea and some code was borrowed from [1]. Basic idea: The main idea of KASAN is to use shadow memory to record whether each byte of memory is safe to access or not, and use compiler's instrumentation to check the shadow memory on each memory access. Address sanitizer uses 1/8 of the memory addressable in kernel for shadow memory and uses direct mapping with a scale and offset to translate a memory address to its corresponding shadow address. Here is function to translate address to corresponding shadow address: unsigned long kasan_mem_to_shadow(unsigned long addr) { return (addr >> KASAN_SHADOW_SCALE_SHIFT) + KASAN_SHADOW_OFFSET; } where KASAN_SHADOW_SCALE_SHIFT = 3. So for every 8 bytes there is one corresponding byte of shadow memory. The following encoding used for each shadow byte: 0 means that all 8 bytes of the corresponding memory region are valid for access; k (1 <= k <= 7) means that the first k bytes are valid for access, and other (8 - k) bytes are not; Any negative value indicates that the entire 8-bytes are inaccessible. Different negative values used to distinguish between different kinds of inaccessible memory (redzones, freed memory) (see mm/kasan/kasan.h). To be able to detect accesses to bad memory we need a special compiler. Such compiler inserts a specific function calls (__asan_load*(addr), __asan_store*(addr)) before each memory access of size 1, 2, 4, 8 or 16. These functions check whether memory region is valid to access or not by checking corresponding shadow memory. If access is not valid an error printed. Historical background of the address sanitizer from Dmitry Vyukov: "We've developed the set of tools, AddressSanitizer (Asan), ThreadSanitizer and MemorySanitizer, for user space. We actively use them for testing inside of Google (continuous testing, fuzzing, running prod services). To date the tools have found more than 10'000 scary bugs in Chromium, Google internal codebase and various open-source projects (Firefox, OpenSSL, gcc, clang, ffmpeg, MySQL and lots of others): [2] [3] [4]. The tools are part of both gcc and clang compilers. We have not yet done massive testing under the Kernel AddressSanitizer (it's kind of chicken and egg problem, you need it to be upstream to start applying it extensively). To date it has found about 50 bugs. Bugs that we've found in upstream kernel are listed in [5]. We've also found ~20 bugs in out internal version of the kernel. Also people from Samsung and Oracle have found some. [...] As others noted, the main feature of AddressSanitizer is its performance due to inline compiler instrumentation and simple linear shadow memory. User-space Asan has ~2x slowdown on computational programs and ~2x memory consumption increase. Taking into account that kernel usually consumes only small fraction of CPU and memory when running real user-space programs, I would expect that kernel Asan will have ~10-30% slowdown and similar memory consumption increase (when we finish all tuning). I agree that Asan can well replace kmemcheck. We have plans to start working on Kernel MemorySanitizer that finds uses of unitialized memory. Asan+Msan will provide feature-parity with kmemcheck. As others noted, Asan will unlikely replace debug slab and pagealloc that can be enabled at runtime. Asan uses compiler instrumentation, so even if it is disabled, it still incurs visible overheads. Asan technology is easily portable to other architectures. Compiler instrumentation is fully portable. Runtime has some arch-dependent parts like shadow mapping and atomic operation interception. They are relatively easy to port." Comparison with other debugging features: ======================================== KMEMCHECK: - KASan can do almost everything that kmemcheck can. KASan uses compile-time instrumentation, which makes it significantly faster than kmemcheck. The only advantage of kmemcheck over KASan is detection of uninitialized memory reads. Some brief performance testing showed that kasan could be x500-x600 times faster than kmemcheck: $ netperf -l 30 MIGRATED TCP STREAM TEST from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0) port 0 AF_INET to localhost (127.0.0.1) port 0 AF_INET Recv Send Send Socket Socket Message Elapsed Size Size Size Time Throughput bytes bytes bytes secs. 10^6bits/sec no debug: 87380 16384 16384 30.00 41624.72 kasan inline: 87380 16384 16384 30.00 12870.54 kasan outline: 87380 16384 16384 30.00 10586.39 kmemcheck: 87380 16384 16384 30.03 20.23 - Also kmemcheck couldn't work on several CPUs. It always sets number of CPUs to 1. KASan doesn't have such limitation. DEBUG_PAGEALLOC: - KASan is slower than DEBUG_PAGEALLOC, but KASan works on sub-page granularity level, so it able to find more bugs. SLUB_DEBUG (poisoning, redzones): - SLUB_DEBUG has lower overhead than KASan. - SLUB_DEBUG in most cases are not able to detect bad reads, KASan able to detect both reads and writes. - In some cases (e.g. redzone overwritten) SLUB_DEBUG detect bugs only on allocation/freeing of object. KASan catch bugs right before it will happen, so we always know exact place of first bad read/write.

ftrace: graph of a single function This patch adds the file: /debugfs/tracing/set_graph_function which can be used along with the function graph tracer. When this file is empty, the function graph tracer will act as usual. When the file has a function in it, the function graph tracer will only trace that function. For example: # echo blk_unplug > /debugfs/tracing/set_graph_function # cat /debugfs/tracing/trace [...] ------------------------------------------ | 2) make-19003 => kjournald-2219 ------------------------------------------ 2) | blk_unplug() { 2) | dm_unplug_all() { 2) | dm_get_table() { 2) 1.381 us | _read_lock(); 2) 0.911 us | dm_table_get(); 2) 1. 76 us | _read_unlock(); 2) + 12.912 us | } 2) | dm_table_unplug_all() { 2) | blk_unplug() { 2) 0.778 us | generic_unplug_device(); 2) 2.409 us | } 2) 5.992 us | } 2) 0.813 us | dm_table_put(); 2) + 29. 90 us | } 2) + 34.532 us | } You can add up to 32 functions into this file. Currently we limit it to 32, but this may change with later improvements. To add another function, use the append '>>': # echo sys_read >> /debugfs/tracing/set_graph_function # cat /debugfs/tracing/set_graph_function blk_unplug sys_read Using the '>' will clear out the function and write anew: # echo sys_write > /debug/tracing/set_graph_function # cat /debug/tracing/set_graph_function sys_write Note, if you have function graph running while doing this, the small time between clearing it and updating it will cause the graph to record all functions. This should not be an issue because after it sets the filter, only those functions will be recorded from then on. If you need to only record a particular function then set this file first before starting the function graph tracer. In the future this side effect may be corrected. The set_graph_function file is similar to the set_ftrace_filter but it does not take wild cards nor does it allow for more than one function to be set with a single write. There is no technical reason why this is the case, I just do not have the time yet to implement that. Note, dynamic ftrace must be enabled for this to appear because it uses the dynamic ftrace records to match the name to the mcount call sites.

kernel: add kcov code coverage kcov provides code coverage collection for coverage-guided fuzzing (randomized testing). Coverage-guided fuzzing is a testing technique that uses coverage feedback to determine new interesting inputs to a system. A notable user-space example is AFL (http://lcamtuf.coredump.cx/afl/). However, this technique is not widely used for kernel testing due to missing compiler and kernel support. kcov does not aim to collect as much coverage as possible. It aims to collect more or less stable coverage that is function of syscall inputs. To achieve this goal it does not collect coverage in soft/hard interrupts and instrumentation of some inherently non-deterministic or non-interesting parts of kernel is disbled (e.g. scheduler, locking). Currently there is a single coverage collection mode (tracing), but the API anticipates additional collection modes. Initially I also implemented a second mode which exposes coverage in a fixed-size hash table of counters (what Quentin used in his original patch). I've dropped the second mode for simplicity. This patch adds the necessary support on kernel side. The complimentary compiler support was added in gcc revision 231296. We've used this support to build syzkaller system call fuzzer, which has found 90 kernel bugs in just 2 months: https://github.com/google/syzkaller/wiki/Found-Bugs We've also found 30+ bugs in our internal systems with syzkaller. Another (yet unexplored) direction where kcov coverage would greatly help is more traditional "blob mutation". For example, mounting a random blob as a filesystem, or receiving a random blob over wire. Why not gcov. Typical fuzzing loop looks as follows: (1) reset coverage, (2) execute a bit of code, (3) collect coverage, repeat. A typical coverage can be just a dozen of basic blocks (e.g. an invalid input). In such context gcov becomes prohibitively expensive as reset/collect coverage steps depend on total number of basic blocks/edges in program (in case of kernel it is about 2M). Cost of kcov depends only on number of executed basic blocks/edges. On top of that, kernel requires per-thread coverage because there are always background threads and unrelated processes that also produce coverage. With inlined gcov instrumentation per-thread coverage is not possible. kcov exposes kernel PCs and control flow to user-space which is insecure. But debugfs should not be mapped as user accessible.

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.

kcov: collect coverage from interrupts 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 inserted callback to not bail out when called from softirq context. kcov_remote_start/stop() are updated to save/restore the current per task kcov state in a per-cpu area (in case the softirq came when the kernel was already collecting coverage in task context). Coverage from softirqs is collected into pre-allocated per-cpu areas, whose size is controlled by the new CONFIG_KCOV_IRQ_AREA_SIZE.

/* Collect coverage from softirq context: */
unsigned int kcov_softirq;
kernel: add kcov code coverage kcov provides code coverage collection for coverage-guided fuzzing (randomized testing). Coverage-guided fuzzing is a testing technique that uses coverage feedback to determine new interesting inputs to a system. A notable user-space example is AFL (http://lcamtuf.coredump.cx/afl/). However, this technique is not widely used for kernel testing due to missing compiler and kernel support. kcov does not aim to collect as much coverage as possible. It aims to collect more or less stable coverage that is function of syscall inputs. To achieve this goal it does not collect coverage in soft/hard interrupts and instrumentation of some inherently non-deterministic or non-interesting parts of kernel is disbled (e.g. scheduler, locking). Currently there is a single coverage collection mode (tracing), but the API anticipates additional collection modes. Initially I also implemented a second mode which exposes coverage in a fixed-size hash table of counters (what Quentin used in his original patch). I've dropped the second mode for simplicity. This patch adds the necessary support on kernel side. The complimentary compiler support was added in gcc revision 231296. We've used this support to build syzkaller system call fuzzer, which has found 90 kernel bugs in just 2 months: https://github.com/google/syzkaller/wiki/Found-Bugs We've also found 30+ bugs in our internal systems with syzkaller. Another (yet unexplored) direction where kcov coverage would greatly help is more traditional "blob mutation". For example, mounting a random blob as a filesystem, or receiving a random blob over wire. Why not gcov. Typical fuzzing loop looks as follows: (1) reset coverage, (2) execute a bit of code, (3) collect coverage, repeat. A typical coverage can be just a dozen of basic blocks (e.g. an invalid input). In such context gcov becomes prohibitively expensive as reset/collect coverage steps depend on total number of basic blocks/edges in program (in case of kernel it is about 2M). Cost of kcov depends only on number of executed basic blocks/edges. On top of that, kernel requires per-thread coverage because there are always background threads and unrelated processes that also produce coverage. With inlined gcov instrumentation per-thread coverage is not possible. kcov exposes kernel PCs and control flow to user-space which is insecure. But debugfs should not be mapped as user accessible. Based on a patch by Quentin Casasnovas.

memcg: punt high overage reclaim to return-to-userland path Currently, try_charge() tries to reclaim memory synchronously when the high limit is breached; however, if the allocation doesn't have __GFP_WAIT, synchronous reclaim is skipped. If a process performs only speculative allocations, it can blow way past the high limit. This is actually easily reproducible by simply doing "find /". slab/slub allocator tries speculative allocations first, so as long as there's memory which can be consumed without blocking, it can keep allocating memory regardless of the high limit. This patch makes try_charge() always punt the over-high reclaim to the return-to-userland path. If try_charge() detects that high limit is breached, it adds the overage to current->memcg_nr_pages_over_high and schedules execution of mem_cgroup_handle_over_high() which performs synchronous reclaim from the return-to-userland path. As long as kernel doesn't have a run-away allocation spree, this should provide enough protection while making kmemcg behave more consistently. It also has the following benefits. - All over-high reclaims can use GFP_KERNEL regardless of the specific gfp mask in use, e.g. GFP_NOFS, when the limit was breached. - It copes with prio inversion. Previously, a low-prio task with small memory.high might perform over-high reclaim with a bunch of locks held. If a higher prio task needed any of these locks, it would have to wait until the low prio task finished reclaim and released the locks. By handing over-high reclaim to the task exit path this issue can be avoided.

fs: fsnotify: account fsnotify metadata to kmemcg Patch series "Directed kmem charging", v8. The Linux kernel's memory cgroup allows limiting the memory usage of the jobs running on the system to provide isolation between the jobs. All the kernel memory allocated in the context of the job and marked with __GFP_ACCOUNT will also be included in the memory usage and be limited by the job's limit. The kernel memory can only be charged to the memcg of the process in whose context kernel memory was allocated. However there are cases where the allocated kernel memory should be charged to the memcg different from the current processes's memcg. This patch series contains two such concrete use-cases i.e. fsnotify and buffer_head. The fsnotify event objects can consume a lot of system memory for large or unlimited queues if there is either no or slow listener. The events are allocated in the context of the event producer. However they should be charged to the event consumer. Similarly the buffer_head objects can be allocated in a memcg different from the memcg of the page for which buffer_head objects are being allocated. To solve this issue, this patch series introduces mechanism to charge kernel memory to a given memcg. In case of fsnotify events, the memcg of the consumer can be used for charging and for buffer_head, the memcg of the page can be charged. For directed charging, the caller can use the scope API memalloc_[un]use_memcg() to specify the memcg to charge for all the __GFP_ACCOUNT allocations within the scope. This patch (of 2): A lot of memory can be consumed by the events generated for the huge or unlimited queues if there is either no or slow listener. This can cause system level memory pressure or OOMs. So, it's better to account the fsnotify kmem caches to the memcg of the listener. However the listener can be in a different memcg than the memcg of the producer and these allocations happen in the context of the event producer. This patch introduces remote memcg charging API which the producer can use to charge the allocations to the memcg of the listener. There are seven fsnotify kmem caches and among them allocations from dnotify_struct_cache, dnotify_mark_cache, fanotify_mark_cache and inotify_inode_mark_cachep happens in the context of syscall from the listener. So, SLAB_ACCOUNT is enough for these caches. The objects from fsnotify_mark_connector_cachep are not accounted as they are small compared to the notification mark or events and it is unclear whom to account connector to since it is shared by all events attached to the inode. The allocations from the event caches happen in the context of the event producer. For such caches we will need to remote charge the allocations to the listener's memcg. Thus we save the memcg reference in the fsnotify_group structure of the listener. This patch has also moved the members of fsnotify_group to keep the size same, at least for 64 bit build, even with additional member by filling the holes.

memcg: coalesce uncharge during unmap/truncate In massive parallel enviroment, res_counter can be a performance bottleneck. One strong techinque to reduce lock contention is reducing calls by coalescing some amount of calls into one. Considering charge/uncharge chatacteristic, - charge is done one by one via demand-paging. - uncharge is done by - in chunk at munmap, truncate, exit, execve... - one by one via vmscan/paging. It seems we have a chance to coalesce uncharges for improving scalability at unmap/truncation. This patch is a for coalescing uncharge. For avoiding scattering memcg's structure to functions under /mm, this patch adds memcg batch uncharge information to the task. A reason for per-task batching is for making use of caller's context information. We do batched uncharge (deleyed uncharge) when truncation/unmap occurs but do direct uncharge when uncharge is called by memory reclaim (vmscan.c). The degree of coalescing depends on callers - at invalidate/trucate... pagevec size - at unmap ....ZAP_BLOCK_SIZE (memory itself will be freed in this degree.) Then, we'll not coalescing too much. On x86-64 8cpu server, I tested overheads of memcg at page fault by running a program which does map/fault/unmap in a loop. Running a task per a cpu by taskset and see sum of the number of page faults in 60secs.

uprobes/core: Handle breakpoint and singlestep exceptions Uprobes uses exception notifiers to get to know if a thread hit a breakpoint or a singlestep exception.

In some cases, special care is needed for instructions that are executed out of line (xol). These are architecture specific artefacts, such as handling RIP relative instructions on x86_64. Since the instruction at which the uprobe was inserted is executed out of line, architecture specific fixups are added so that the thread continues normal execution in the presence of a uprobe. Postpone the signals until we execute the probed insn. post_xol() path does a recalc_sigpending() before return to user-mode, this ensures the signal can't be lost.

For now we skip single byte as well as few multibyte nop instructions. However this can be extended to other instructions too.

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

livepatch: change to a per-task consistency model Change livepatch to use a basic per-task consistency model. This is the foundation which will eventually enable us to patch those ~10% of security patches which change function or data semantics. This is the biggest remaining piece needed to make livepatch more generally useful. This code stems from the design proposal made by Vojtech [1] in November 2014. It's a hybrid of kGraft and kpatch: it uses kGraft's per-task consistency and syscall barrier switching combined with kpatch's stack trace switching. There are also a number of fallback options which make it quite flexible. Patches are applied on a per-task basis, when the task is deemed safe to switch over. When a patch is enabled, livepatch enters into a transition state where tasks are converging to the patched state. Usually this transition state can complete in a few seconds. The same sequence occurs when a patch is disabled, except the tasks converge from the patched state to the unpatched state. An interrupt handler inherits the patched state of the task it interrupts. The same is true for forked tasks: the child inherits the patched state of the parent. Livepatch uses several complementary approaches to determine when it's safe to patch tasks: 1. The first and most effective approach is stack checking of sleeping tasks. If no affected functions are on the stack of a given task, the task is patched. In most cases this will patch most or all of the tasks on the first try. Otherwise it'll keep trying periodically. This option is only available if the architecture has reliable stacks (HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE). 2. The second approach, if needed, is kernel exit switching. A task is switched when it returns to user space from a system call, a user space IRQ, or a signal. It's useful in the following cases: a) Patching I/O-bound user tasks which are sleeping on an affected function. In this case you have to send SIGSTOP and SIGCONT to force it to exit the kernel and be patched. b) Patching CPU-bound user tasks. If the task is highly CPU-bound then it will get patched the next time it gets interrupted by an IRQ. c) In the future it could be useful for applying patches for architectures which don't yet have HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE. In this case you would have to signal most of the tasks on the system. However this isn't supported yet because there's currently no way to patch kthreads without HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE. 3. For idle "swapper" tasks, since they don't ever exit the kernel, they instead have a klp_update_patch_state() call in the idle loop which allows them to be patched before the CPU enters the idle state. (Note there's not yet such an approach for kthreads.) All the above approaches may be skipped by setting the 'immediate' flag in the 'klp_patch' struct, which will disable per-task consistency and patch all tasks immediately. This can be useful if the patch doesn't change any function or data semantics. Note that, even with this flag set, it's possible that some tasks may still be running with an old version of the function, until that function returns. There's also an 'immediate' flag in the 'klp_func' struct which allows you to specify that certain functions in the patch can be applied without per-task consistency. This might be useful if you want to patch a common function like schedule(), and the function change doesn't need consistency but the rest of the patch does. For architectures which don't have HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE, the user must set patch->immediate which causes all tasks to be patched immediately. This option should be used with care, only when the patch doesn't change any function or data semantics. In the future, architectures which don't have HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE may be allowed to use per-task consistency if we can come up with another way to patch kthreads. The /sys/kernel/livepatch/<patch>/transition file shows whether a patch is in transition. Only a single patch (the topmost patch on the stack) can be in transition at a given time. A patch can remain in transition indefinitely, if any of the tasks are stuck in the initial patch state. A transition can be reversed and effectively canceled by writing the opposite value to the /sys/kernel/livepatch/<patch>/enabled file while the transition is in progress. Then all the tasks will attempt to converge back to the original patch state.

LSM: Revive security_task_alloc() hook and per "struct task_struct" security blob. We switched from "struct task_struct"->security to "struct cred"->security in Linux 2.6.29. But not all LSM modules were happy with that change. TOMOYO LSM module is an example which want to use per "struct task_struct" security blob, for TOMOYO's security context is defined based on "struct task_struct" rather than "struct cred". AppArmor LSM module is another example which want to use it, for AppArmor is currently abusing the cred a little bit to store the change_hat and setexeccon info. Although security_task_free() hook was revived in Linux 3.4 because Yama LSM module wanted to release per "struct task_struct" security blob, security_task_alloc() hook and "struct task_struct"->security field were not revived. Nowadays, we are getting proposals of lightweight LSM modules which want to use per "struct task_struct" security blob. We are already allowing multiple concurrent LSM modules (up to one fully armored module which uses "struct cred"->security field or exclusive hooks like security_xfrm_state_pol_flow_match(), plus unlimited number of lightweight modules which do not use "struct cred"->security nor exclusive hooks) as long as they are built into the kernel. But this patch does not implement variable length "struct task_struct"->security field which will become needed when multiple LSM modules want to use "struct task_struct"-> security field. Although it won't be difficult to implement variable length "struct task_struct"->security field, let's think about it after we merged this patch.

x86/entry: Add STACKLEAK erasing the kernel stack at the end of syscalls The STACKLEAK feature (initially developed by PaX Team) has the following benefits: 1. Reduces the information that can be revealed through kernel stack leak bugs. The idea of erasing the thread stack at the end of syscalls is similar to CONFIG_PAGE_POISONING and memzero_explicit() in kernel crypto, which all comply with FDP_RIP.2 (Full Residual Information Protection) of the Common Criteria standard. 2. Blocks some uninitialized stack variable attacks (e.g. CVE-2017-17712, CVE-2010-2963). That kind of bugs should be killed by improving C compilers in future, which might take a long time. This commit introduces the code filling the used part of the kernel stack with a poison value before returning to userspace. Full STACKLEAK feature also contains the gcc plugin which comes in a separate commit. The STACKLEAK feature is ported from grsecurity/PaX. More information at: https://grsecurity.net/ https://pax.grsecurity.net/ This code is modified from Brad Spengler/PaX Team's code in the last public patch of grsecurity/PaX based on our understanding of the code. Changes or omissions from the original code are ours and don't reflect the original grsecurity/PaX code.

x86/{mce,mm}: Unmap the entire page if the whole page is affected and poisoned 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).

[PATCH] pid: implement access helpers for a tacks various process groups In the last round of cleaning up the pid hash table a more general struct pid was introduced, that can be referenced counted. With the more general struct pid most if not all places where we store a pid_t we can now store a struct pid * and remove the need for a hash table lookup, and avoid any possible problems with pid roll over. Looking forward to the pid namespaces struct pid * gives us an absolute form a pid so we can compare and use them without caring which pid namespace we are in. This patchset introduces the infrastructure needed to use struct pid instead of pid_t, and then it goes on to convert two different kernel users that currently store a pid_t value. There are a lot more places to go but this is enough to get the basic idea. Before we can merge a pid namespace patch all of the kernel pid_t users need to be examined. Those that deal with user space processes need to be converted to using a struct pid *. Those that deal with kernel processes need to converted to using the kthread api. A rare few that only use their current processes pid values get to be left alone. This patch: task_session returns the struct pid of a tasks session. task_pgrp returns the struct pid of a tasks process group. task_tgid returns the struct pid of a tasks thread group. task_pid returns the struct pid of a tasks process id.

mm: introduce memalloc_nofs_{save,restore} API GFP_NOFS context is used for the following 5 reasons currently: - to prevent from deadlocks when the lock held by the allocation context would be needed during the memory reclaim - to prevent from stack overflows during the reclaim because the allocation is performed from a deep context already - to prevent lockups when the allocation context depends on other reclaimers to make a forward progress indirectly - just in case because this would be safe from the fs POV - silence lockdep false positives Unfortunately overuse of this allocation context brings some problems to the MM. Memory reclaim is much weaker (especially during heavy FS metadata workloads), OOM killer cannot be invoked because the MM layer doesn't have enough information about how much memory is freeable by the FS layer. In many cases it is far from clear why the weaker context is even used and so it might be used unnecessarily. We would like to get rid of those as much as possible. One way to do that is to use the flag in scopes rather than isolated cases. Such a scope is declared when really necessary, tracked per task and all the allocation requests from within the context will simply inherit the GFP_NOFS semantic. Not only this is easier to understand and maintain because there are much less problematic contexts than specific allocation requests, this also helps code paths where FS layer interacts with other layers (e.g. crypto, security modules, MM etc...) and there is no easy way to convey the allocation context between the layers. Introduce memalloc_nofs_{save,restore} API to control the scope of GFP_NOFS allocation context. This is basically copying memalloc_noio_{save,restore} API we have for other restricted allocation context GFP_NOIO. The PF_MEMALLOC_NOFS flag already exists and it is just an alias for PF_FSTRANS which has been xfs specific until recently. There are no more PF_FSTRANS users anymore so let's just drop it. PF_MEMALLOC_NOFS is now checked in the MM layer and drops __GFP_FS implicitly same as PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO drops __GFP_IO. memalloc_noio_flags is renamed to current_gfp_context because it now cares about both PF_MEMALLOC_NOFS and PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO contexts. Xfs code paths preserve their semantic. kmem_flags_convert() doesn't need to evaluate the flag anymore. This patch shouldn't introduce any functional changes. Let's hope that filesystems will drop direct GFP_NOFS (resp. ~__GFP_FS) usage as much as possible and only use a properly documented memalloc_nofs_{save,restore} checkpoints where they are appropriate.

mm/writeback: replace PF_LESS_THROTTLE with PF_LOCAL_THROTTLE 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.

mm cma: rename PF_MEMALLOC_NOCMA to PF_MEMALLOC_PIN PF_MEMALLOC_NOCMA is used ot guarantee that the allocator will not return pages that might belong to CMA region. This is currently used for long term gup to make sure that such pins are not going to be done on any CMA pages. When PF_MEMALLOC_NOCMA has been introduced we haven't realized that it is focusing on CMA pages too much and that there is larger class of pages that need the same treatment. MOVABLE zone cannot contain any long term pins as well so it makes sense to reuse and redefine this flag for that usecase as well. Rename the flag to PF_MEMALLOC_PIN which defines an allocation context which can only get pages suitable for long-term pins. Also rename: memalloc_nocma_save()/memalloc_nocma_restore to memalloc_pin_save()/memalloc_pin_restore() and make the new functions common.

mm: allow PF_MEMALLOC from softirq context This is needed to allow network softirq packet processing to make use of PF_MEMALLOC. Currently softirq context cannot use PF_MEMALLOC due to it not being associated with a task, and therefore not having task flags to fiddle with - thus the gfp to alloc flag mapping ignores the task flags when in interrupts (hard or soft) context. Allowing softirqs to make use of PF_MEMALLOC therefore requires some trickery. This patch borrows the task flags from whatever process happens to be preempted by the softirq. It then modifies the gfp to alloc flags mapping to not exclude task flags in softirq context, and modify the softirq code to save, clear and restore the PF_MEMALLOC flag. The save and clear, ensures the preempted task's PF_MEMALLOC flag doesn't leak into the softirq. The restore ensures a softirq's PF_MEMALLOC flag cannot leak back into the preempted process. This should be safe due to the following reasons Softirqs can run on multiple CPUs sure but the same task should not be executing the same softirq code. Neither should the softirq handler be preempted by any other softirq handler so the flags should not leak to an unrelated softirq. Softirqs re-enable hardware interrupts in __do_softirq() so can be preempted by hardware interrupts so PF_MEMALLOC is inherited by the hard IRQ. However, this is similar to a process in reclaim being preempted by a hardirq. While PF_MEMALLOC is set, gfp_to_alloc_flags() distinguishes between hard and soft irqs and avoids giving a hardirq the ALLOC_NO_WATERMARKS flag. If the softirq is deferred to ksoftirq then its flags may be used instead of a normal tasks but as the softirq cannot be preempted, the PF_MEMALLOC flag does not leak to other code by accident.

[-Werror=sizeof-pointer-memaccess] This is indeed slightly suspicious, as it protects us from source arguments without NUL-termination, but does not guarantee that the destination is terminated. This keeps the strncpy() to ensure we have properly padded target buffer, but ensures that we use the correct length, by passing the actual length of the destination buffer as well as adding a build-time check to ensure it is exactly TASK_COMM_LEN. There are only 23 callsites which I all reviewed to ensure this is currently the case. We could get away with doing only the check or passing the right length, but it doesn't hurt to do both.

rseq: Introduce restartable sequences system call Expose a new system call allowing each thread to register one userspace memory area to be used as an ABI between kernel and user-space for two purposes: user-space restartable sequences and quick access to read the current CPU number value from user-space. * Restartable sequences (per-cpu atomics) Restartables sequences allow user-space to perform update operations on per-cpu data without requiring heavy-weight atomic operations. The restartable critical sections (percpu atomics) work has been started by Paul Turner and Andrew Hunter. It lets the kernel handle restart of critical sections. [1] [2] The re-implementation proposed here brings a few simplifications to the ABI which facilitates porting to other architectures and speeds up the user-space fast path. Here are benchmarks of various rseq use-cases. Test hardware: arm32: ARMv7 Processor rev 4 (v7l) "Cubietruck", 2-core x86-64: Intel E5-2630 v3@2.40GHz, 16-core, hyperthreading The following benchmarks were all performed on a single thread. * Per-CPU statistic counter increment getcpu+atomic (ns/op) rseq (ns/op) speedup arm32: 344.0 31.4 11.0 x86-64: 15.3 2.0 7.7 * LTTng-UST: write event 32-bit header, 32-bit payload into tracer per-cpu buffer getcpu+atomic (ns/op) rseq (ns/op) speedup arm32: 2502.0 2250.0 1.1 x86-64: 117.4 98.0 1.2 * liburcu percpu: lock-unlock pair, dereference, read/compare word getcpu+atomic (ns/op) rseq (ns/op) speedup arm32: 751.0 128.5 5.8 x86-64: 53.4 28.6 1.9 * jemalloc memory allocator adapted to use rseq Using rseq with per-cpu memory pools in jemalloc at Facebook (based on rseq 2016 implementation): The production workload response-time has 1-2% gain avg. latency, and the P99 overall latency drops by 2-3%. * Reading the current CPU number Speeding up reading the current CPU number on which the caller thread is running is done by keeping the current CPU number up do date within the cpu_id field of the memory area registered by the thread. This is done by making scheduler preemption set the TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME flag on the current thread. Upon return to user-space, a notify-resume handler updates the current CPU value within the registered user-space memory area. User-space can then read the current CPU number directly from memory. Keeping the current cpu id in a memory area shared between kernel and user-space is an improvement over current mechanisms available to read the current CPU number, which has the following benefits over alternative approaches: - 35x speedup on ARM vs system call through glibc - 20x speedup on x86 compared to calling glibc, which calls vdso executing a "lsl" instruction, - 14x speedup on x86 compared to inlined "lsl" instruction, - Unlike vdso approaches, this cpu_id value can be read from an inline assembly, which makes it a useful building block for restartable sequences. - The approach of reading the cpu id through memory mapping shared between kernel and user-space is portable (e.g. ARM), which is not the case for the lsl-based x86 vdso. On x86, yet another possible approach would be to use the gs segment selector to point to user-space per-cpu data. This approach performs similarly to the cpu id cache, but it has two disadvantages: it is not portable, and it is incompatible with existing applications already using the gs segment selector for other purposes. Benchmarking various approaches for reading the current CPU number: ARMv7 Processor rev 4 (v7l) Machine model: Cubietruck - Baseline (empty loop): 8.4 ns - Read CPU from rseq cpu_id: 16.7 ns - Read CPU from rseq cpu_id (lazy register): 19.8 ns - glibc 2.19-0ubuntu6.6 getcpu: 301.8 ns - getcpu system call: 234.9 ns x86-64 Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2630 v3 @ 2.40GHz: - Baseline (empty loop): 0.8 ns - Read CPU from rseq cpu_id: 0.8 ns - Read CPU from rseq cpu_id (lazy register): 0.8 ns - Read using gs segment selector: 0.8 ns - "lsl" inline assembly: 13.0 ns - glibc 2.19-0ubuntu6 getcpu: 16.6 ns - getcpu system call: 53.9 ns - Speed (benchmark taken on v8 of patchset) Running 10 runs of hackbench -l 100000 seems to indicate, contrary to expectations, that enabling CONFIG_RSEQ slightly accelerates the scheduler: Configuration: 2 sockets * 8-core Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2630 v3 @ 2.40GHz (directly on hardware, hyperthreading disabled in BIOS, energy saving disabled in BIOS, turboboost disabled in BIOS, cpuidle.off=1 kernel parameter), with a Linux v4.6 defconfig+localyesconfig, restartable sequences series applied. * CONFIG_RSEQ=n avg.: 41.37 s std.dev.: 0.36 s * CONFIG_RSEQ=y avg.: 40.46 s std.dev.: 0.33 s - Size On x86-64, between CONFIG_RSEQ=n/y, the text size increase of vmlinux is 567 bytes, and the data size increase of vmlinux is 5696 bytes.

The restartable critical sections (percpu atomics) work has been started by Paul Turner and Andrew Hunter. It lets the kernel handle restart of critical sections.

rseq: Unregister rseq for clone CLONE_VM 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.

rseq: Introduce restartable sequences system call Expose a new system call allowing each thread to register one userspace memory area to be used as an ABI between kernel and user-space for two purposes: user-space restartable sequences and quick access to read the current CPU number value from user-space. * Restartable sequences (per-cpu atomics) Restartables sequences allow user-space to perform update operations on per-cpu data without requiring heavy-weight atomic operations. The restartable critical sections (percpu atomics) work has been started by Paul Turner and Andrew Hunter. It lets the kernel handle restart of critical sections. [1] [2] The re-implementation proposed here brings a few simplifications to the ABI which facilitates porting to other architectures and speeds up the user-space fast path. Here are benchmarks of various rseq use-cases. Test hardware: arm32: ARMv7 Processor rev 4 (v7l) "Cubietruck", 2-core x86-64: Intel E5-2630 v3@2.40GHz, 16-core, hyperthreading The following benchmarks were all performed on a single thread. * Per-CPU statistic counter increment getcpu+atomic (ns/op) rseq (ns/op) speedup arm32: 344.0 31.4 11.0 x86-64: 15.3 2.0 7.7 * LTTng-UST: write event 32-bit header, 32-bit payload into tracer per-cpu buffer getcpu+atomic (ns/op) rseq (ns/op) speedup arm32: 2502.0 2250.0 1.1 x86-64: 117.4 98.0 1.2 * liburcu percpu: lock-unlock pair, dereference, read/compare word getcpu+atomic (ns/op) rseq (ns/op) speedup arm32: 751.0 128.5 5.8 x86-64: 53.4 28.6 1.9 * jemalloc memory allocator adapted to use rseq Using rseq with per-cpu memory pools in jemalloc at Facebook (based on rseq 2016 implementation): The production workload response-time has 1-2% gain avg. latency, and the P99 overall latency drops by 2-3%. * Reading the current CPU number Speeding up reading the current CPU number on which the caller thread is running is done by keeping the current CPU number up do date within the cpu_id field of the memory area registered by the thread. This is done by making scheduler preemption set the TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME flag on the current thread. Upon return to user-space, a notify-resume handler updates the current CPU value within the registered user-space memory area. User-space can then read the current CPU number directly from memory. Keeping the current cpu id in a memory area shared between kernel and user-space is an improvement over current mechanisms available to read the current CPU number, which has the following benefits over alternative approaches: - 35x speedup on ARM vs system call through glibc - 20x speedup on x86 compared to calling glibc, which calls vdso executing a "lsl" instruction, - 14x speedup on x86 compared to inlined "lsl" instruction, - Unlike vdso approaches, this cpu_id value can be read from an inline assembly, which makes it a useful building block for restartable sequences. - The approach of reading the cpu id through memory mapping shared between kernel and user-space is portable (e.g. ARM), which is not the case for the lsl-based x86 vdso. On x86, yet another possible approach would be to use the gs segment selector to point to user-space per-cpu data.

rseq: Introduce restartable sequences system call Expose a new system call allowing each thread to register one userspace memory area to be used as an ABI between kernel and user-space for two purposes: user-space restartable sequences and quick access to read the current CPU number value from user-space. * Restartable sequences (per-cpu atomics) Restartables sequences allow user-space to perform update operations on per-cpu data without requiring heavy-weight atomic operations. The restartable critical sections (percpu atomics) work has been started by Paul Turner and Andrew Hunter. It lets the kernel handle restart of critical sections. [1] [2] The re-implementation proposed here brings a few simplifications to the ABI which facilitates porting to other architectures and speeds up the user-space fast path. Here are benchmarks of various rseq use-cases. Test hardware: arm32: ARMv7 Processor rev 4 (v7l) "Cubietruck", 2-core x86-64: Intel E5-2630 v3@2.40GHz, 16-core, hyperthreading The following benchmarks were all performed on a single thread. * Per-CPU statistic counter increment getcpu+atomic (ns/op) rseq (ns/op) speedup arm32: 344.0 31.4 11.0 x86-64: 15.3 2.0 7.7 * LTTng-UST: write event 32-bit header, 32-bit payload into tracer per-cpu buffer getcpu+atomic (ns/op) rseq (ns/op) speedup arm32: 2502.0 2250.0 1.1 x86-64: 117.4 98.0 1.2 * liburcu percpu: lock-unlock pair, dereference, read/compare word getcpu+atomic (ns/op) rseq (ns/op) speedup arm32: 751.0 128.5 5.8 x86-64: 53.4 28.6 1.9 * jemalloc memory allocator adapted to use rseq Using rseq with per-cpu memory pools in jemalloc at Facebook (based on rseq 2016 implementation): The production workload response-time has 1-2% gain avg. latency, and the P99 overall latency drops by 2-3%. * Reading the current CPU number Speeding up reading the current CPU number on which the caller thread is running is done by keeping the current CPU number up do date within the cpu_id field of the memory area registered by the thread. This is done by making scheduler preemption set the TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME flag on the current thread. Upon return to user-space, a notify-resume handler updates the current CPU value within the registered user-space memory area. User-space can then read the current CPU number directly from memory. Keeping the current cpu id in a memory area shared between kernel and user-space is an improvement over current mechanisms available to read the current CPU number, which has the following benefits over alternative approaches: - 35x speedup on ARM vs system call through glibc - 20x speedup on x86 compared to calling glibc, which calls vdso executing a "lsl" instruction, - 14x speedup on x86 compared to inlined "lsl" instruction, - Unlike vdso approaches, this cpu_id value can be read from an inline assembly, which makes it a useful building block for restartable sequences. - The approach of reading the cpu id through memory mapping shared between kernel and user-space is portable (e.g. ARM), which is not the case for the lsl-based x86 vdso. On x86, yet another possible approach would be to use the gs segment selector to point to user-space per-cpu data. This approach performs similarly to the cpu id cache, but it has two disadvantages: it is not portable, and it is incompatible with existing applications already using the gs segment selector for other purposes. Benchmarking various approaches for reading the current CPU number: ARMv7 Processor rev 4 (v7l) Machine model: Cubietruck - Baseline (empty loop): 8.4 ns - Read CPU from rseq cpu_id: 16.7 ns - Read CPU from rseq cpu_id (lazy register): 19.8 ns - glibc 2.19-0ubuntu6.6 getcpu: 301.8 ns - getcpu system call: 234.9 ns x86-64 Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2630 v3 @ 2.40GHz: - Baseline (empty loop): 0.8 ns - Read CPU from rseq cpu_id: 0.8 ns - Read CPU from rseq cpu_id (lazy register): 0.8 ns - Read using gs segment selector: 0.8 ns - "lsl" inline assembly: 13.0 ns - glibc 2.19-0ubuntu6 getcpu: 16.6 ns - getcpu system call: 53.9 ns - Speed (benchmark taken on v8 of patchset) Running 10 runs of hackbench -l 100000 seems to indicate, contrary to expectations, that enabling CONFIG_RSEQ slightly accelerates the scheduler: Configuration: 2 sockets * 8-core Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2630 v3 @ 2.40GHz (directly on hardware, hyperthreading disabled in BIOS, energy saving disabled in BIOS, turboboost disabled in BIOS, cpuidle.off=1 kernel parameter), with a Linux v4.6 defconfig+localyesconfig, restartable sequences series applied. * CONFIG_RSEQ=n avg.: 41.37 s std.dev.: 0.36 s * CONFIG_RSEQ=y avg.: 40.46 s std.dev.: 0.33 s - Size On x86-64, between CONFIG_RSEQ=n/y, the text size increase of vmlinux is 567 bytes, and the data size increase of vmlinux is 5696 bytes.

sched: prctl() core-scheduling interface This patch provides support for setting and copying core scheduling 'task cookies' between threads (PID), processes (TGID), and process groups (PGID). The value of core scheduling isn't that tasks don't share a core, 'nosmt' can do that. The value lies in exploiting all the sharing opportunities that exist to recover possible lost performance and that requires a degree of flexibility in the API. From a security perspective (and there are others), the thread, process and process group distinction is an existent hierarchal categorization of tasks that reflects many of the security concerns about 'data sharing'. For example, protecting against cache-snooping by a thread that can just read the memory directly isn't all that useful. With this in mind, subcommands to CREATE/SHARE (TO/FROM) provide a mechanism to create and share cookies. CREATE/SHARE_TO specify a target pid with enum pidtype used to specify the scope of the targeted tasks. For example, PIDTYPE_TGID will share the cookie with the process and all of it's threads as typically desired in a security scenario. API: prctl(PR_SCHED_CORE, PR_SCHED_CORE_GET, tgtpid, pidtype, &cookie) prctl(PR_SCHED_CORE, PR_SCHED_CORE_CREATE, tgtpid, pidtype, NULL) prctl(PR_SCHED_CORE, PR_SCHED_CORE_SHARE_TO, tgtpid, pidtype, NULL) prctl(PR_SCHED_CORE, PR_SCHED_CORE_SHARE_FROM, srcpid, pidtype, NULL) where 'tgtpid/srcpid == 0' implies the current process and pidtype is kernel enum pid_type {PIDTYPE_PID, PIDTYPE_TGID, PIDTYPE_PGID, ...}. For return values, EINVAL, ENOMEM are what they say. ESRCH means the tgtpid/srcpid was not found. EPERM indicates lack of PTRACE permission access to tgtpid/srcpid. ENODEV indicates your machines lacks SMT.
