rcu-tasks: Print pre-stall-warning informational messages
RCU-tasks stall-warning messages are printed after the grace period is ten minutes old. Unfortunately, most of us will have rebooted the system in response to an apparently-hung command long before the ten minutes is up, and will thus see what looks to be a silent hang. This commit therefore adds pr_info() messages that are printed earlier. These should avoid being classified as errors, but should give impatient users a hint. These are controlled by new rcupdate.rcu_task_stall_info and rcupdate.rcu_task_stall_info_mult kernel-boot parameters. The former defines the initial delay in jiffies (defaulting to 10 seconds) and the latter defines the multiplier (defaulting to 3). Thus, by default, the first message will appear 10 seconds into the RCU-tasks grace period, the second 40 seconds in, and the third 160 seconds in. There would be a fourth at 640 seconds in, but the stall warning message appears 600 seconds in, and once a stall warning is printed for a given grace period, no further informational messages are printed.

srcu: Add contention-triggered addition of srcu_node tree
This commit instruments the acquisitions of the srcu_struct structure's ->lock, enabling the initiation of a transition from SRCU_SIZE_SMALL to SRCU_SIZE_BIG when sufficient contention is experienced. The instrumentation counts the number of trylock failures within the confines of a single jiffy. If that number exceeds the value specified by the srcutree.small_contention_lim kernel boot parameter (which defaults to 100), and if the value specified by the srcutree.convert_to_big kernel boot parameter has the 0x10 bit set (defaults to 0), then a transition will be automatically initiated. By default, there will never be any transitions, so that none of the srcu_struct structures ever gains an srcu_node array. The useful values for srcutree.convert_to_big are: 0x00: Never convert. 0x01: Always convert at init_srcu_struct() time. 0x02: Convert when rcutorture prints its first round of statistics. 0x03: Decide conversion approach at boot given system size. 0x10: Convert if contention is encountered. 0x12: Convert if contention is encountered or when rcutorture prints its first round of statistics, whichever comes first. The value 0x11 acts the same as 0x01 because the conversion happens before there is any chance of contention.

srcu: Add boot-time control over srcu_node array allocation
This commit adds an srcu_tree.convert_to_big kernel parameter that either refuses to convert at all (0), converts immediately at init_srcu_struct() time (1), or lets rcutorture convert it (2). An addition contention-based dynamic conversion choice will be added, along with documentation.

x86/cpu: Allow feature bit names from /proc/cpuinfo in clearcpuid=
Having to give the X86_FEATURE array indices in order to disable a feature bit for testing is not really user-friendly. So accept the feature bit names too. Some feature bits don't have names so there the array indices are still accepted, of course. Clearing CPUID flags is not something which should be done in production so taint the kernel too. An exemplary cmdline would then be something like: clearcpuid=de,440,smca,succory,bmi1,3dnow ("succory" is wrong on purpose).

random: treat bootloader trust toggle the same way as cpu trust toggle
If CONFIG_RANDOM_TRUST_CPU is set, the RNG initializes using RDRAND. But, the user can disable (or enable) this behavior by setting `random.trust_cpu=0/1` on the kernel command line. This allows system builders to do reasonable things while avoiding howls from tinfoil hatters. (Or vice versa.) CONFIG_RANDOM_TRUST_BOOTLOADER is basically the same thing, but regards the seed passed via EFI or device tree, which might come from RDRAND or a TPM or somewhere else. In order to allow distros to more easily enable this while avoiding those same howls (or vice versa), this commit adds the corresponding `random.trust_bootloader=0/1` toggle.

panic: move panic_print before kmsg dumpers
The panic_print setting allows users to collect more information in a panic event, like memory stats, tasks, CPUs backtraces, etc. This is an interesting debug mechanism, but currently the print event happens *after* kmsg_dump(), meaning that pstore, for example, cannot collect a dmesg with the panic_print extra information. This patch changes that in 2 steps: (a) The panic_print setting allows to replay the existing kernel log buffer to the console (bit 5), besides the extra information dump. This functionality makes sense only at the end of the panic() function. So, we hereby allow to distinguish the two situations by a new boolean parameter in the function panic_print_sys_info(). (b) With the above change, we can safely call panic_print_sys_info() before kmsg_dump(), allowing to dump the extra information when using pstore or other kmsg dumpers. The additional messages from panic_print could overwrite the oldest messages when the buffer is full. The only reasonable solution is to use a large enough log buffer, hence we added an advice into the kernel parameters documentation about that.

panic: add option to dump all CPUs backtraces in panic_print
Currently the "panic_print" parameter/sysctl allows some interesting debug information to be printed during a panic event. This is useful for example in cases the user cannot kdump due to resource limits, or if the user collects panic logs in a serial output (or pstore) and prefers a fast reboot instead of a kdump. Happens that currently there's no way to see all CPUs backtraces in a panic using "panic_print" on architectures that support that. We do have "oops_all_cpu_backtrace" sysctl, but although partially overlapping in the functionality, they are orthogonal in nature: "panic_print" is a panic tuning (and we have panics without oopses, like direct calls to panic() or maybe other paths that don't go through oops_enter() function), and the original purpose of "oops_all_cpu_backtrace" is to provide more information on oopses for cases in which the users desire to continue running the kernel even after an oops, i.e., used in non-panic scenarios. So, we hereby introduce an additional bit for "panic_print" to allow dumping the CPUs backtraces during a panic event.

Tracing updates for 5.18:
- New user_events interface. User space can register an event with the kernel describing the format of the event. Then it will receive a byte in a page mapping that it can check against. A privileged task can then enable that event like any other event, which will change the mapped byte to true, telling the user space application to start writing the event to the tracing buffer. - Add new "ftrace_boot_snapshot" kernel command line parameter. When set, the tracing buffer will be saved in the snapshot buffer at boot up when the kernel hands things over to user space. This will keep the traces that happened at boot up available even if user space boot up has tracing as well. - Have TRACE_EVENT_ENUM() also update trace event field type descriptions. Thus if a static array defines its size with an enum, the user space trace event parsers can still know how to parse that array. - Add new TRACE_CUSTOM_EVENT() macro. This acts the same as the TRACE_EVENT() macro, but will attach to an existing tracepoint. This will make one tracepoint be able to trace different content and not be stuck at only what the original TRACE_EVENT() macro exports. - Fixes to tracing error logging. - Better saving of cmdlines to PIDs when tracing (use the wakeup events for mapping). -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iIoEABYIADIWIQRRSw7ePDh/lE+zeZMp5XQQmuv6qgUCYjiO3RQccm9zdGVkdEBn b29kbWlzLm9yZwAKCRAp5XQQmuv6qhQzAQDtek5p80p/zkMGymm14wSH6qq0NdgN Kv7fTBwEewUa0gD/UCOVLw4Oj+JtHQhCa3sCGZopmRv0BT1+4UQANqosKQY= =Au08 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'trace-v5.18' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: - New user_events interface.

mm: hugetlb: free the 2nd vmemmap page associated with each HugeTLB page
Patch series "Free the 2nd vmemmap page associated with each HugeTLB page", v7. This series can minimize the overhead of struct page for 2MB HugeTLB pages significantly. It further reduces the overhead of struct page by 12.5% for a 2MB HugeTLB compared to the previous approach, which means 2GB per 1TB HugeTLB. It is a nice gain. Comments and reviews are welcome. Thanks. The main implementation and details can refer to the commit log of patch 1. In this series, I have changed the following four helpers, the following table shows the impact of the overhead of those helpers. +------------------+-----------------------+ | APIs | head page | tail page | +------------------+-----------+-----------+ | PageHead() | Y | N | +------------------+-----------+-----------+ | PageTail() | Y | N | +------------------+-----------+-----------+ | PageCompound() | N | N | +------------------+-----------+-----------+ | compound_head() | Y | N | +------------------+-----------+-----------+ Y: Overhead is increased. N: Overhead is _NOT_ increased. It shows that the overhead of those helpers on a tail page don't change between "hugetlb_free_vmemmap=on" and "hugetlb_free_vmemmap=off". But the overhead on a head page will be increased when "hugetlb_free_vmemmap=on" (except PageCompound()). So I believe that Matthew Wilcox's folio series will help with this. The users of PageHead() and PageTail() are much less than compound_head() and most users of PageTail() are VM_BUG_ON(), so I have done some tests about the overhead of compound_head() on head pages. I have tested the overhead of calling compound_head() on a head page, which is 2.11ns (Measure the call time of 10 million times compound_head(), and then average). For a head page whose address is not aligned with PAGE_SIZE or a non-compound page, the overhead of compound_head() is 2.54ns which is increased by 20%. For a head page whose address is aligned with PAGE_SIZE, the overhead of compound_head() is 2.97ns which is increased by 40%. Most pages are the former. I do not think the overhead is significant since the overhead of compound_head() itself is low. This patch (of 5): This patch minimizes the overhead of struct page for 2MB HugeTLB pages significantly. It further reduces the overhead of struct page by 12.5% for a 2MB HugeTLB compared to the previous approach, which means 2GB per 1TB HugeTLB (2MB type). After the feature of "Free sonme vmemmap pages of HugeTLB page" is enabled, the mapping of the vmemmap addresses associated with a 2MB HugeTLB page becomes the figure below. HugeTLB struct pages(8 pages) page frame(8 pages) +-----------+ ---virt_to_page---> +-----------+ mapping to +-----------+---> PG_head | | | 0 | -------------> | 0 | | | +-----------+ +-----------+ | | | 1 | -------------> | 1 | | | +-----------+ +-----------+ | | | 2 | ----------------^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ | | +-----------+ | | | | | | | | 3 | ------------------+ | | | | | | +-----------+ | | | | | | | 4 | --------------------+ | | | | 2MB | +-----------+ | | | | | | 5 | ----------------------+ | | | | +-----------+ | | | | | 6 | ------------------------+ | | | +-----------+ | | | | 7 | --------------------------+ | | +-----------+ | | | | | | +-----------+ As we can see, the 2nd vmemmap page frame (indexed by 1) is reused and remaped. However, the 2nd vmemmap page frame is also can be freed to the buddy allocator, then we can change the mapping from the figure above to the figure below. HugeTLB struct pages(8 pages) page frame(8 pages) +-----------+ ---virt_to_page---> +-----------+ mapping to +-----------+---> PG_head | | | 0 | -------------> | 0 | | | +-----------+ +-----------+ | | | 1 | ---------------^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ | | +-----------+ | | | | | | | | | 2 | -----------------+ | | | | | | | +-----------+ | | | | | | | | 3 | -------------------+ | | | | | | +-----------+ | | | | | | | 4 | ---------------------+ | | | | 2MB | +-----------+ | | | | | | 5 | -----------------------+ | | | | +-----------+ | | | | | 6 | -------------------------+ | | | +-----------+ | | | | 7 | ---------------------------+ | | +-----------+ | | | | | | +-----------+ After we do this, all tail vmemmap pages (1-7) are mapped to the head vmemmap page frame (0). In other words, there are more than one page struct with PG_head associated with each HugeTLB page. We __know__ that there is only one head page struct, the tail page structs with PG_head are fake head page structs. We need an approach to distinguish between those two different types of page structs so that compound_head(), PageHead() and PageTail() can work properly if the parameter is the tail page struct but with PG_head. The following code snippet describes how to distinguish between real and fake head page struct. if (test_bit(PG_head, &page->flags)) { unsigned long head = READ_ONCE(page[1].compound_head); if (head & 1) { if (head == (unsigned long)page + 1) ==> head page struct else ==> tail page struct } else ==> head page struct } We can safely access the field of the @page[1] with PG_head because the @page is a compound page composed with at least two contiguous pages.

tracing: Add snapshot at end of kernel boot up
Add ftrace_boot_snapshot kernel parameter that will take a snapshot at the end of boot up just before switching over to user space (it happens during the kernel freeing of init memory). This is useful when there's interesting data that can be collected from kernel start up, but gets overridden by user space start up code. With this option, the ring buffer content from the boot up traces gets saved in the snapshot at the end of boot up.

vsprintf: Fix %pK with kptr_restrict == 0
Although kptr_restrict is set to 0 and the kernel is booted with
no_hash_pointers parameter, the content of /proc/vmallocinfo is
lacking the real addresses.

According to the documentation for /proc/sys/kernel/, %pK is

Docs: printk: add 'console=null|""' to admin/kernel-parameters
Tell about 'console=null|""' and how to use it.
It can be helpful to set (enable) CONFIG_NULL_TTY so that the ttynull
driver is available. This avoids problems with stdin/stdout/stderr of
the init process. Howevere, CONFIG_NULL_TTY cannot be enabled by default
because it can be used by mistake, see the commit

KVM: x86/mmu: Remove MMU auditing
Remove mmu_audit.c and all its collateral, the auditing code has suffered severe bitrot, ironically partly due to shadow paging being more stable and thus not benefiting as much from auditing, but mostly due to TDP supplanting shadow paging for non-nested guests and shadowing of nested TDP not heavily stressing the logic that is being audited.

KVM: x86/mmu: Split huge pages mapped by the TDP MMU during KVM_CLEAR_DIRTY_LOG
When using KVM_DIRTY_LOG_INITIALLY_SET, huge pages are not write-protected when dirty logging is enabled on the memslot. Instead they are write-protected once userspace invokes KVM_CLEAR_DIRTY_LOG for the first time and only for the specific sub-region being cleared. Enhance KVM_CLEAR_DIRTY_LOG to also try to split huge pages prior to write-protecting to avoid causing write-protection faults on vCPU threads. This also allows userspace to smear the cost of huge page splitting across multiple ioctls, rather than splitting the entire memslot as is the case when initially-all-set is not used.

KVM: x86/mmu: Split huge pages mapped by the TDP MMU when dirty logging is enabled
When dirty logging is enabled without initially-all-set, try to split all huge pages in the memslot down to 4KB pages so that vCPUs do not have to take expensive write-protection faults to split huge pages. Eager page splitting is best-effort only. This commit only adds the support for the TDP MMU, and even there splitting may fail due to out of memory conditions. Failures to split a huge page is fine from a correctness standpoint because KVM will always follow up splitting by write-protecting any remaining huge pages. Eager page splitting moves the cost of splitting huge pages off of the vCPU threads and onto the thread enabling dirty logging on the memslot. This is useful because: 1. Splitting on the vCPU thread interrupts vCPUs execution and is disruptive to customers whereas splitting on VM ioctl threads can run in parallel with vCPU execution. 2. Splitting all huge pages at once is more efficient because it does not require performing VM-exit handling or walking the page table for every 4KiB page in the memslot, and greatly reduces the amount of contention on the mmu_lock. For example, when running dirty_log_perf_test with 96 virtual CPUs, 1GiB per vCPU, and 1GiB HugeTLB memory, the time it takes vCPUs to write to all of their memory after dirty logging is enabled decreased by 95% from 2.94s to 0.14s. Eager Page Splitting is over 100x more efficient than the current implementation of splitting on fault under the read lock. For example, taking the same workload as above, Eager Page Splitting reduced the CPU required to split all huge pages from ~270 CPU-seconds ((2.94s - 0.14s) * 96 vCPU threads) to only 1.55 CPU-seconds. Eager page splitting does increase the amount of time it takes to enable dirty logging since it has split all huge pages. For example, the time it took to enable dirty logging in the 96GiB region of the aforementioned test increased from 0.001s to 1.55s.

rcu/nocb: Allow empty "rcu_nocbs" kernel parameter
Allow the rcu_nocbs kernel parameter to be specified just by itself, without specifying any CPUs. This allows systems administrators to use "rcu_nocbs" to specify that none of the CPUs are to be offloaded at boot time, but than any of them may be offloaded at runtime via cpusets. In contrast, if the "rcu_nocbs" or "nohz_full" kernel parameters are not specified at all, then not only are none of the CPUs offloaded at boot, none of them can be offloaded at runtime, either. While in the area, modernize the description of the "rcuo" kthreads' naming scheme.

rcu-tasks: Use fewer callbacks queues if callback flood ends
By default, when lock contention is encountered, the RCU Tasks flavors of RCU switch to using per-CPU queueing. However, if the callback flood ends, per-CPU queueing continues to be used, which introduces significant additional overhead, especially for callback invocation, which fans out a series of workqueue handlers. This commit therefore switches back to single-queue operation if at the beginning of a grace period there are very few callbacks. The definition of "very few" is set by the rcupdate.rcu_task_collapse_lim module parameter, which defaults to 10. This switch happens in two phases, with the first phase causing future callbacks to be enqueued on CPU 0's queue, but with all queues continuing to be checked for grace periods and callback invocation. The second phase checks to see if an RCU grace period has elapsed and if all remaining RCU-Tasks callbacks are queued on CPU 0. If so, only CPU 0 is checked for future grace periods and callback operation. Of course, the return of contention anywhere during this process will result in returning to per-CPU callback queueing.

rcu-tasks: Use more callback queues if contention encountered
The rcupdate.rcu_task_enqueue_lim module parameter allows system administrators to tune the number of callback queues used by the RCU Tasks flavors. However if callback storms are infrequent, it would be better to operate with a single queue on a given system unless and until that system actually needed more queues. Systems not needing more queues can then avoid the overhead of checking the extra queues and especially avoid the overhead of fanning workqueue handlers out to all CPUs to invoke callbacks. This commit therefore switches to using all the CPUs' callback queues if call_rcu_tasks_generic() encounters too much lock contention. The amount of lock contention to tolerate defaults to 100 contended lock acquisitions per jiffy, and can be adjusted using the new rcupdate.rcu_task_contend_lim module parameter. Such switching is undertaken only if the rcupdate.rcu_task_enqueue_lim module parameter is negative, which is its default value (-1). This allows savvy systems administrators to set the number of queues to some known good value and to not have to worry about the kernel doing any second guessing.

powerpc/kuep: Remove 'nosmep' boot time parameter except for book3s/64

PM: hibernate: Allow ACPI hardware signature to be honoured
Theoretically, when the hardware signature in FACS changes, the OS is supposed to gracefully decline to attempt to resume from S4: "If the signature has changed, OSPM will not restore the system context and can boot from scratch" In practice, Windows doesn't do this and many laptop vendors do allow the signature to change especially when docking/undocking, so it would be a bad idea to simply comply with the specification by default in the general case. However, there are use cases where we do want the compliant behaviour and we know it's safe. Specifically, when resuming virtual machines where we know the hypervisor has changed sufficiently that resume will fail. We really want to be able to *tell* the guest kernel not to try, so it boots cleanly and doesn't just crash. This patch provides a way to opt in to the spec-compliant behaviour on the command line. A follow-up patch may do this automatically for certain "known good" machines based on a DMI match, or perhaps just for all hypervisor guests since there's no good reason a hypervisor would change the hardware_signature that it exposes to guests *unless* it wants them to obey the ACPI specification.

rcutorture: Enable multiple concurrent callback-flood kthreads
This commit converts the rcutorture.fwd_progress module parameter from bool to int, so that it specifies the number of callback-flood kthreads. Values less than zero specify one kthread per CPU, however, the number of kthreads executing concurrently is limited to the number of online CPUs. This commit also reverse the order of the need-resched and callback-flood operations to cause the callback flooding to happen more nearly at the same time.

rcu: Remove the RCU_FAST_NO_HZ Kconfig option
All of the uses of CONFIG_RCU_FAST_NO_HZ=y that I have seen involve systems with RCU callbacks offloaded. In this situation, all that this Kconfig option does is slow down idle entry/exit with an additional allways-taken early exit. If this is the only use case, then this Kconfig option nothing but an attractive nuisance that needs to go away. This commit therefore removes the RCU_FAST_NO_HZ Kconfig option.

m68k: Enable memtest functionality
Enable the memtest functionality and rearrange some code to prevent it from clobbering the initrd. The code to implement CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD was conditional on !defined(CONFIG_SUN3). For simplicity, remove that test on the basis that m68k_ramdisk.size == 0 on Sun 3. The SLIME source code at http://sammy.net/sun3/ftp/pub/m68k/sun3/slime/slime-2.0.tar.gz indicates that no BI_RAMDISK entry is ever passed to the kernel due to #ifdef 0 around the relevant code.

Input: i8042 - add deferred probe support
We've got a bug report about the non-working keyboard on ASUS ZenBook UX425UA. It seems that the PS/2 device isn't ready immediately at boot but takes some seconds to get ready. Until now, the only workaround is to defer the probe, but it's available only when the driver is a module. However, many distros, including openSUSE as in the original report, build the PS/2 input drivers into kernel, hence it won't work easily. This patch adds the support for the deferred probe for i8042 stuff as a workaround of the problem above. When the deferred probe mode is enabled and the device couldn't be probed, it'll be repeated with the standard deferred probe mechanism. The deferred probe mode is enabled either via the new option i8042.probe_defer or via the quirk table entry. As of this patch, the quirk table contains only ASUS ZenBook UX425UA. The deferred probe part is based on Fabio's initial work.

hugetlbfs: extend the definition of hugepages parameter to support node allocation
We can specify the number of hugepages to allocate at boot. But the hugepages is balanced in all nodes at present. In some scenarios, we only need hugepages in one node. For example: DPDK needs hugepages which are in the same node as NIC. If DPDK needs four hugepages of 1G size in node1 and system has 16 numa nodes we must reserve 64 hugepages on the kernel cmdline. But only four hugepages are used. The others should be free after boot. If the system memory is low(for example: 64G), it will be an impossible task. So extend the hugepages parameter to support specifying hugepages on a specific node. For example add following parameter: hugepagesz=1G hugepages=0:1,1:3 It will allocate 1 hugepage in node0 and 3 hugepages in node1.

hugetlb: support node specified when using cma for gigantic hugepages
Now the size of CMA area for gigantic hugepages runtime allocation is balanced for all online nodes, but we also want to specify the size of CMA per-node, or only one node in some cases, which are similar with patch [1]. For example, on some multi-nodes systems, each node's memory can be different, allocating the same size of CMA for each node is not suitable for the low-memory nodes. Meanwhile some workloads like DPDK mentioned by Zhenguo in patch [1] only need hugepages in one node. On the other hand, we have some machines with multiple types of memory, like DRAM and PMEM (persistent memory). On this system, we may want to specify all the hugepages only on DRAM node, or specify the proportion of DRAM node and PMEM node, to tuning the performance of the workloads. Thus this patch adds node format for 'hugetlb_cma' parameter to support specifying the size of CMA per-node. An example is as follows: hugetlb_cma=0:5G,2:5G which means allocating 5G size of CMA area on node 0 and node 2 respectively. And the users should use the node specific sysfs file to allocate the gigantic hugepages if specified the CMA size on that node.

xen/balloon: add late_initcall_sync() for initial ballooning done
When running as PVH or HVM guest with actual memory < max memory the hypervisor is using "populate on demand" in order to allow the guest to balloon down from its maximum memory size. For this to work correctly the guest must not touch more memory pages than its target memory size as otherwise the PoD cache will be exhausted and the guest is crashed as a result of that. In extreme cases ballooning down might not be finished today before the init process is started, which can consume lots of memory. In order to avoid random boot crashes in such cases, add a late init call to wait for ballooning down having finished for PVH/HVM guests. Warn on console if initial ballooning fails, panic() after stalling for more than 3 minutes per default. Add a module parameter for changing this timeout.

s390/pci: add s390_iommu_aperture kernel parameter
Some applications map the same memory area for DMA multiple times while also mapping significant amounts of memory. With our current DMA code these applications will run out of DMA addresses after mapping half of the available memory because the number of DMA mappings is constrained by the number of concurrently active DMA addresses we support which in turn is limited by the minimum of hardware constraints and high_memory. Limiting the number of active DMA addresses to high_memory is only a heuristic to save memory used by the iommu_bitmap and DMA page tables however. This was added under the assumption that it rarely makes sense to DMA map more than system memory. To accommodate special applications which insist on double mapping, which works on other platforms, allow specifying a factor of how many times installed memory is available as DMA address space. Use 0 as a special value to apply no constraints beyond what hardware dictates at the expense of significantly more memory use.

x86/signal: Implement sigaltstack size validation
For historical reasons MINSIGSTKSZ is a constant which became already too small with AVX512 support. Add a mechanism to enforce strict checking of the sigaltstack size against the real size of the FPU frame. The strict check can be enabled via a config option and can also be controlled via the kernel command line option 'strict_sas_size' independent of the config switch. Enabling it might break existing applications which allocate a too small sigaltstack but 'work' because they never get a signal delivered. Though it can be handy to filter out binaries which are not yet aware of AT_MINSIGSTKSZ. Also the upcoming support for dynamically enabled FPU features requires a strict sanity check to ensure that: - Enabling of a dynamic feature, which changes the sigframe size fits into an enabled sigaltstack - Installing a too small sigaltstack after a dynamic feature has been added is not possible. Implement the base check which is controlled by config and command line options. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Chang S.

kvm: x86: mmu: Make NX huge page recovery period configurable
Currently, the NX huge page recovery thread wakes up every minute and zaps 1/nx_huge_pages_recovery_ratio of the total number of split NX huge pages at a time. This is intended to ensure that only a relatively small number of pages get zapped at a time. But for very large VMs (or more specifically, VMs with a large number of executable pages), a period of 1 minute could still result in this number being too high (unless the ratio is changed significantly, but that can result in split pages lingering on for too long). This change makes the period configurable instead of fixing it at 1 minute. Users of large VMs can then adjust the period and/or the ratio to reduce the number of pages zapped at one time while still maintaining the same overall duration for cycling through the entire list. By default, KVM derives a period from the ratio such that a page will remain on the list for 1 hour on average.

KVM: arm64: Allow KVM to be disabled from the command line
Although KVM can be compiled out of the kernel, it cannot be disabled at runtime. Allow this possibility by introducing a new mode that will prevent KVM from initialising. This is useful in the (limited) circumstances where you don't want KVM to be available (what is wrong with you?), or when you want to install another hypervisor instead (good luck with that).

x86: change default to spec_store_bypass_disable=prctl spectre_v2_user=prctl
Switch the kernel default of SSBD and STIBP to the ones with CONFIG_SECCOMP=n (i.e. spec_store_bypass_disable=prctl spectre_v2_user=prctl) even if CONFIG_SECCOMP=y. Several motivations listed below: - If SMT is enabled the seccomp jail can still attack the rest of the system even with spectre_v2_user=seccomp by using MDS-HT (except on XEON PHI where MDS can be tamed with SMT left enabled, but that's a special case). Setting STIBP become a very expensive window dressing after MDS-HT was discovered. - The seccomp jail cannot attack the kernel with spectre-v2-HT regardless (even if STIBP is not set), but with MDS-HT the seccomp jail can attack the kernel too. - With spec_store_bypass_disable=prctl the seccomp jail can attack the other userland (guest or host mode) using spectre-v2-HT, but the userland attack is already mitigated by both ASLR and pid namespaces for host userland and through virt isolation with libkrun or kata. (if something if somebody is worried about spectre-v2-HT it's best to mount proc with hidepid=2,gid=proc on workstations where not all apps may run under container runtimes, rather than slowing down all seccomp jails, but the best is to add pid namespaces to the seccomp jail). As opposed MDS-HT is not mitigated and the seccomp jail can still attack all other host and guest userland if SMT is enabled even with spec_store_bypass_disable=seccomp. - If full security is required then MDS-HT must also be mitigated with nosmt and then spectre_v2_user=prctl and spectre_v2_user=seccomp would become identical. - Setting spectre_v2_user=seccomp is overall lower priority than to setting javascript.options.wasm false in about:config to protect against remote wasm MDS-HT, instead of worrying about Spectre-v2-HT and STIBP which again is already statistically well mitigated by other means in userland and it's fully mitigated in kernel with retpolines (unlike the wasm assist call with MDS-HT). - SSBD is needed to prevent reading the JIT memory and the primary user being the OpenJDK. However the primary user of SSBD wouldn't be covered by spec_store_bypass_disable=seccomp because it doesn't use seccomp and the primary user also explicitly declined to set PR_SET_SPECULATION_CTRL+PR_SPEC_STORE_BYPASS despite it easily could. In fact it would need to set it only when the sandboxing mechanism is enabled for javaws applets, but it still declined it by declaring security within the same user address space as an untenable objective for their JIT, even in the sandboxing case where performance would be a lesser concern (for the record: I kind of disagree in not setting PR_SPEC_STORE_BYPASS in the sandbox case and I prefer to run javaws through a wrapper that sets PR_SPEC_STORE_BYPASS if I need). In turn it can be inferred that even if the primary user of SSBD would use seccomp, they would invoke it with SECCOMP_FILTER_FLAG_SPEC_ALLOW by now. - runc/crun already set SECCOMP_FILTER_FLAG_SPEC_ALLOW by default, k8s and podman have a default json seccomp allowlist that cannot be slowed down, so for the #1 seccomp user this change is already a noop. - systemd/sshd or other apps that use seccomp, if they really need STIBP or SSBD, they need to explicitly set the PR_SET_SPECULATION_CTRL by now. The stibp/ssbd seccomp blind catch-all approach was done probably initially with a wishful thinking objective to pretend to have a peace of mind that it could magically fix it all. That was wishful thinking before MDS-HT was discovered, but after MDS-HT has been discovered it become just window dressing. - For qemu "-sandbox" seccomp jail it wouldn't make sense to set STIBP or SSBD. SSBD doesn't help with KVM because there's no JIT (if it's needed with TCG it should be an opt-in with PR_SET_SPECULATION_CTRL+PR_SPEC_STORE_BYPASS and it shouldn't slowdown KVM for nothing). For qemu+KVM STIBP would be even more window dressing than it is for all other apps, because in the qemu+KVM case there's not only the MDS attack to worry about with SMT enabled. Even after disabling SMT, there's still a theoretical spectre-v2 attack possible within the same thread context from guest mode to host ring3 that the host kernel retpoline mitigation has no theoretical chance to mitigate. On some kernels a ibrs-always/ibrs-retpoline opt-in model is provided that will enabled IBRS in the qemu host ring3 userland which fixes this theoretical concern. Only after enabling IBRS in the host userland it would then make sense to proceed and worry about STIBP and an attack on the other host userland, but then again SMT would need to be disabled for full security anyway, so that would render STIBP again a noop. - last but not the least: the lack of "spec_store_bypass_disable=prctl spectre_v2_user=prctl" means the moment a guest boots and sshd/systemd runs, the guest kernel will write to SPEC_CTRL MSR which will make the guest vmexit forever slower, forcing KVM to issue a very slow rdmsr instruction at every vmexit. So the end result is that SPEC_CTRL MSR is only available in GCE. Most other public cloud providers don't expose SPEC_CTRL, which means that not only STIBP/SSBD isn't available, but IBPB isn't available either (which would cause no overhead to the guest or the hypervisor because it's write only and requires no reading during vmexit). So the current default already net loss in security (missing IBPB) which means most public cloud providers cannot achieve a fully secure guest with nosmt (and nosmt is enough to fully mitigate MDS-HT). It also means GCE and is unfairly penalized in performance because it provides the option to enable full security in the guest as an opt-in (i.e. nosmt and IBPB). So this change will allow all cloud providers to expose SPEC_CTRL without incurring into any hypervisor slowdown and at the same time it will remove the unfair penalization of GCE performance for doing the right thing and it'll allow to get full security with nosmt with IBPB being available (and STIBP becoming meaningless). Example to put things in prospective: the STIBP enabled in seccomp has never been about protecting apps using seccomp like sshd from an attack from a malicious userland, but to the contrary it has always been about protecting the system from an attack from sshd, after a successful remote network exploit against sshd. In fact initially it wasn't obvious STIBP would work both ways (STIBP was about preventing the task that runs with STIBP to be attacked with spectre-v2-HT, but accidentally in the STIBP case it also prevents the attack in the other direction). In the hypothetical case that sshd has been remotely exploited the last concern should be STIBP being set, because it'll be still possible to obtain info even from the kernel by using MDS if nosmt wasn't set (and if it was set, STIBP is a noop in the first place). As opposed kernel cannot leak anything with spectre-v2 HT because of retpolines and the userland is mitigated by ASLR already and ideally PID namespaces too. If something it'd be worth checking if sshd run the seccomp thread under pid namespaces too if available in the running kernel. SSBD also would be a noop for sshd, since sshd uses no JIT. If sshd prefers to keep doing the STIBP window dressing exercise, it still can even after this change of defaults by opting-in with PR_SPEC_INDIRECT_BRANCH. Ultimately setting SSBD and STIBP by default for all seccomp jails is a bad sweet spot and bad default with more cons than pros that end up reducing security in the public cloud (by giving an huge incentive to not expose SPEC_CTRL which would be needed to get full security with IBPB after setting nosmt in the guest) and by excessively hurting performance to more secure apps using seccomp that end up having to opt out with SECCOMP_FILTER_FLAG_SPEC_ALLOW. The following is the verified result of the new default with SMT enabled: (gdb) print spectre_v2_user_stibp $1 = SPECTRE_V2_USER_PRCTL (gdb) print spectre_v2_user_ibpb $2 = SPECTRE_V2_USER_PRCTL (gdb) print ssb_mode $3 = SPEC_STORE_BYPASS_PRCTL Signed-off-by: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20201104235054.5678-1-aarcange@redhat.com Acked-by: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@redhat.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/AAA2EF2C-293D-4D5B-BFA6-FF655105CD84@redhat.com Acked-by: Waiman Long <longman@redhat.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/c0722838-06f7-da6b-138f-e0f26362f16a@redhat.com |

arm64/cpufeature: Optionally disable MTE via command-line
MTE support needs to be optionally disabled in runtime for HW issue workaround, FW development and some evaluation works on system resource and performance. This patch makes two changes: (1) moves init of tag-allocation bits(ATA/ATA0) to cpu_enable_mte() as not cached in TLB. (2) allows ID_AA64PFR1_EL1.MTE to be overridden on its shadow value by giving "arm64.nomte" on cmdline. When the feature value is off, ATA and TCF will not set and the related functionalities are accordingly suppressed.

wan: remove sbni/granch driver
The driver was merged in 1999 and has only ever seen treewide cleanups since then, with no indication whatsoever that anyone has actually had access to hardware for testing the patches. >From the information in the link below, it appears that the hardware is for some leased line system in Russia that has since been discontinued, and useless without any remote end to connect to. As the driver still feels like a Linux-2.2 era artifact today, it appears that the best way forward is to just delete it.

printk: Add printk.console_no_auto_verbose boot parameter
console_verbose() increases console loglevel to CONSOLE_LOGLEVEL_MOTORMOUTH, which provides more information to debug a panic/oops. Unfortunately, in Arista we maintain some DUTs (Device Under Test) that are configured to have 9600 baud rate. While verbose console messages have their value to post-analyze crashes, on such setup they: - may prevent panic/oops messages being printed - take too long to flush on console resulting in watchdog reboot In all our setups we use kdump which saves dmesg buffer after panic, so in reality those extra messages on console provide no additional value, but rather add risk of not getting to __crash_kexec(). Provide printk.console_no_auto_verbose boot parameter, which allows to switch off printk being verbose on oops/panic/lockdep.

Tracing updates for 5.14:
- Added option for per CPU threads to the hwlat tracer - Have hwlat tracer handle hotplug CPUs - New tracer: osnoise, that detects latency caused by interrupts, softirqs and scheduling of other tasks. - Added timerlat tracer that creates a thread and measures in detail what sources of latency it has for wake ups. - Removed the "success" field of the sched_wakeup trace event. This has been hardcoded as "1" since 2015, no tooling should be looking at it now. If one exists, we can revert this commit, fix that tool and try to remove it again in the future. - tgid mapping fixed to handle more than PID_MAX_DEFAULT pids/tgids. - New boot command line option "tp_printk_stop", as tp_printk causes trace events to write to console. When user space starts, this can easily live lock the system. Having a boot option to stop just after boot up is useful to prevent that from happening. - Have ftrace_dump_on_oops boot command line option take numbers that match the numbers shown in /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_dump_on_oops. - Bootconfig clean ups, fixes and enhancements. - New ktest script that tests bootconfig options. - Add tracepoint_probe_register_may_exist() to register a tracepoint without triggering a WARN*() if it already exists.

So there is no side effect when this feature is enabled with no HugeTLB pages in the system. Someone may want to enable this feature in the compiler time instead of using boot command line. So add a config to make it default on when someone do not want to enable it via command line.

mm/page_reporting: export reporting order as module parameter
The macro PAGE_REPORTING_MIN_ORDER is defined as the page reporting threshold. It can't be adjusted at runtime. This introduces a variable (@page_reporting_order) to replace the marcro (PAGE_REPORTING_MIN_ORDER). MAX_ORDER is assigned to it initially, meaning the page reporting is disabled. It will be specified by driver if valid one is provided. Otherwise, it will fall back to @pageblock_order. It's also exported so that the page reporting order can be adjusted at runtime.

Changes in this cycle were:

clocksource: Provide kernel module to test clocksource watchdog
When the clocksource watchdog marks a clock as unstable, this might be due to that clock being unstable or it might be due to delays that happen to occur between the reads of the two clocks. It would be good to have a way of testing the clocksource watchdog's ability to distinguish between these two causes of clock skew and instability. Therefore, provide a new clocksource-wdtest module selected by a new TEST_CLOCKSOURCE_WATCHDOG Kconfig option. This module has a single module parameter named "holdoff" that provides the number of seconds of delay before testing should start, which defaults to zero when built as a module and to 10 seconds when built directly into the kernel. Very large systems that boot slowly may need to increase the value of this module parameter. This module uses hand-crafted clocksource structures to do its testing, thus avoiding messing up timing for the rest of the kernel and for user applications. This module first verifies that the ->uncertainty_margin field of the clocksource structures are set sanely. It then tests the delay-detection capability of the clocksource watchdog, increasing the number of consecutive delays injected, first provoking console messages complaining about the delays and finally forcing a clock-skew event. Unexpected test results cause at least one WARN_ON_ONCE() console splat. If there are no splats, the test has passed. Finally, it fuzzes the value returned from a clocksource to test the clocksource watchdog's ability to detect time skew. This module checks the state of its clocksource after each test, and uses WARN_ON_ONCE() to emit a console splat if there are any failures. This should enable all types of test frameworks to detect any such failures. This facility is intended for diagnostic use only, and should be avoided on production systems.

clocksource: Limit number of CPUs checked for clock synchronization
Currently, if skew is detected on a clock marked CLOCK_SOURCE_VERIFY_PERCPU, that clock is checked on all CPUs. This is thorough, but might not be what you want on a system with a few tens of CPUs, let alone a few hundred of them. Therefore, by default check only up to eight randomly chosen CPUs. Also provide a new clocksource.verify_n_cpus kernel boot parameter. A value of -1 says to check all of the CPUs, and a non-negative value says to randomly select that number of CPUs, without concern about selecting the same CPU multiple times. However, make use of a cpumask so that a given CPU will be checked at most once. Suggested-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> # For verify_n_cpus=1. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

clocksource: Retry clock read if long delays detected
When the clocksource watchdog marks a clock as unstable, this might be due to that clock being unstable or it might be due to delays that happen to occur between the reads of the two clocks. Yes, interrupts are disabled across those two reads, but there are no shortage of things that can delay interrupts-disabled regions of code ranging from SMI handlers to vCPU preemption. It would be good to have some indication as to why the clock was marked unstable. Therefore, re-read the watchdog clock on either side of the read from the clock under test. If the watchdog clock shows an excessive time delta between its pair of reads, the reads are retried. The maximum number of retries is specified by a new kernel boot parameter clocksource.max_cswd_read_retries, which defaults to three, that is, up to four reads, one initial and up to three retries. If more than one retry was required, a message is printed on the console (the occasional single retry is expected behavior, especially in guest OSes). If the maximum number of retries is exceeded, the clock under test will be marked unstable. However, the probability of this happening due to various sorts of delays is quite small. In addition, the reason (clock-read delays) for the unstable marking will be apparent. Reported-by: Chris Mason <clm@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

cgroup: make per-cgroup pressure stall tracking configurable
PSI accounts stalls for each cgroup separately and aggregates it at each level of the hierarchy. This causes additional overhead with psi_avgs_work being called for each cgroup in the hierarchy. psi_avgs_work has been highly optimized, however on systems with large number of cgroups the overhead becomes noticeable. Systems which use PSI only at the system level could avoid this overhead if PSI can be configured to skip per-cgroup stall accounting. Add "cgroup_disable=pressure" kernel command-line option to allow requesting system-wide only pressure stall accounting. When set, it keeps system-wide accounting under /proc/pressure/ but skips accounting for individual cgroups and does not expose PSI nodes in cgroup hierarchy.

kvfree_rcu: Release a page cache under memory pressure
Add a drain_page_cache() function to drain a per-cpu page cache. The reason behind of it is a system can run into a low memory condition, in that case a page shrinker can ask for its users to free their caches in order to get extra memory available for other needs in a system. When a system hits such condition, a page cache is drained for all CPUs in a system. By default a page cache work is delayed with 5 seconds interval until a memory pressure disappears, if needed it can be changed. See a rcu_delay_page_cache_fill_msec module parameter.

init/initramfs.c: do unpacking asynchronously
Patch series "background initramfs unpacking, and CONFIG_MODPROBE_PATH", v3. These two patches are independent, but better-together. The second is a rather trivial patch that simply allows the developer to change "/sbin/modprobe" to something else - e.g. the empty string, so that all request_module() during early boot return -ENOENT early, without even spawning a usermode helper, needlessly synchronizing with the initramfs unpacking. The first patch delegates decompressing the initramfs to a worker thread, allowing do_initcalls() in main.c to proceed to the device_ and late_ initcalls without waiting for that decompression (and populating of rootfs) to finish. Obviously, some of those later calls may rely on the initramfs being available, so I've added synchronization points in the firmware loader and usermodehelper paths - there might be other places that would need this, but so far no one has been able to think of any places I have missed. There's not much to win if most of the functionality needed during boot is only available as modules. But systems with a custom-made .config and initramfs can boot faster, partly due to utilizing more than one cpu earlier, partly by avoiding known-futile modprobe calls (which would still trigger synchronization with the initramfs unpacking, thus eliminating most of the first benefit). This patch (of 2): Most of the boot process doesn't actually need anything from the initramfs, until of course PID1 is to be executed. So instead of doing the decompressing and populating of the initramfs synchronously in populate_rootfs() itself, push that off to a worker thread. This is primarily motivated by an embedded ppc target, where unpacking even the rather modest sized initramfs takes 0.6 seconds, which is long enough that the external watchdog becomes unhappy that it doesn't get attention soon enough. By doing the initramfs decompression in a worker thread, we get to do the device_initcalls and hence start petting the watchdog much sooner. Normal desktops might benefit as well. On my mostly stock Ubuntu kernel, my initramfs is a 26M xz-compressed blob, decompressing to around 126M. That takes almost two seconds: [ 0.201454] Trying to unpack rootfs image as initramfs... [ 1.976633] Freeing initrd memory: 29416K Before this patch, these lines occur consecutively in dmesg. With this patch, the timestamps on these two lines is roughly the same as above, but with 172 lines inbetween - so more than one cpu has been kept busy doing work that would otherwise only happen after the populate_rootfs() finished. Should one of the initcalls done after rootfs_initcall time (i.e., device_ and late_ initcalls) need something from the initramfs (say, a kernel module or a firmware blob), it will simply wait for the initramfs unpacking to be done before proceeding, which should in theory make this completely safe. But if some driver pokes around in the filesystem directly and not via one of the official kernel interfaces (i.e. request_firmware*(), call_usermodehelper*) that theory may not hold - also, I certainly might have missed a spot when sprinkling wait_for_initramfs(). So there is an escape hatch in the form of an initramfs_async= command line parameter.

mm,memory_hotplug: add kernel boot option to enable memmap_on_memory
Self stored memmap leads to a sparse memory situation which is unsuitable for workloads that requires large contiguous memory chunks, so make this an opt-in which needs to be explicitly enabled. To control this, let memory_hotplug have its own memory space, as suggested by David, so we can add memory_hotplug.memmap_on_memory parameter.

powerpc/64s/radix: Enable huge vmalloc mappings
This reduces TLB misses by nearly 30x on a `git diff` workload on a 2-node POWER9 (59,800 -> 2,100) and reduces CPU cycles by 0.54%, due to vfs hashes being allocated with 2MB pages.

IOMMU Updates for Linux v5.13
Including: - Big cleanup of almost unsused parts of the IOMMU API by Christoph Hellwig. This mostly affects the Freescale PAMU driver. - New IOMMU driver for Unisoc SOCs - ARM SMMU Updates from Will: - SMMUv3: Drop vestigial PREFETCH_ADDR support - SMMUv3: Elide TLB sync logic for empty gather - SMMUv3: Fix "Service Failure Mode" handling - SMMUv2: New Qualcomm compatible string - Removal of the AMD IOMMU performance counter writeable check on AMD. It caused long boot delays on some machines and is only needed to work around an errata on some older (possibly pre-production) chips. If someone is still hit by this hardware issue anyway the performance counters will just return 0. - Support for targeted invalidations in the AMD IOMMU driver. Before that the driver only invalidated a single 4k page or the whole IO/TLB for an address space. This has been extended now and is mostly useful for emulated AMD IOMMUs. - Several fixes for the Shared Virtual Memory support in the Intel VT-d driver - Mediatek drivers can now be built as modules - Re-introduction of the forcedac boot option which got lost when converting the Intel VT-d driver to the common dma-iommu implementation. - Extension of the IOMMU device registration interface and support iommu_ops to be const again when drivers are built as modules. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAABCAAdFiEEr9jSbILcajRFYWYyK/BELZcBGuMFAmCMEIoACgkQK/BELZcB GuOu9xAAvg6aR0uHlxvRq6cgNnHN9Ltp5+t3qFYtRRrauY0iOPMO62k0QQli5shX CGeczD0e59KAZqI0zNJnQn8hMY5dg7XVkFCC5BrSzuCDCtwJZ0N5Tq3pfUlaV1rw BJf41t79Fd+jp7kn53tu+vRAfYZ3+sLOx/6U3c15pqKRZSkyFWbQllOtD3J5LnLu 1PyPlfiNpMwCajiS7aQbN+fuJ/lKIFeA2MDPOsCBzhbfxiJUqJxZOKAZO3rOjFfK feTibqQ+3Zz6MPXt9st1cvPpy8jCosv81OY6Knqvxf/oB5q+fEdi2uNrKISonb/t Fw331oOIwg2A+HOpwC9MN1AumOIqiHSWWENAMk9SlP+TMIWKQ8kZreyI6IEB23dV +QvP3DVA+CfLwtNY/Zh0IqKh28D+IHlKbpWNU1m+9AUe468mV/MTjfwxr9Yfffhm LZ6C0DgFdmtqv8jPuDGUOgo3RNeN8bLnUSEHG9gHibA+RKujl5BWDjKkwILqMQTt Ysdsu8TiNtFIULomizqCpgqEbQfW8TLFvASXCM1VMQ/PDURxvchZPxFDJonYXy+K z2HGaG3eUE07YrAdRKH69aMVIbmS+sjEhvmi4xZ1Lh7wWcIE2AZVvO8qNb+Ckcp3 4tLPPDksm/iQngnFf6gdgH3qv4rgbzE4+74GXqeANiQCjY9dSJI= =qF2C -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'iommu-updates-v5.13' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/joro/iommu Pull iommu updates from Joerg Roedel: - Big cleanup of almost unsused parts of the IOMMU API by Christoph Hellwig.

arm64 updates for 5.13:
- MTE asynchronous support for KASan. Previously only synchronous (slower) mode was supported. Asynchronous is faster but does not allow precise identification of the illegal access. - Run kernel mode SIMD with softirqs disabled. This allows using NEON in softirq context for crypto performance improvements. The conditional yield support is modified to take softirqs into account and reduce the latency. - Preparatory patches for Apple M1: handle CPUs that only have the VHE mode available (host kernel running at EL2), add FIQ support. - arm64 perf updates: support for HiSilicon PA and SLLC PMU drivers, new functions for the HiSilicon HHA and L3C PMU, cleanups. - Re-introduce support for execute-only user permissions but only when the EPAN (Enhanced Privileged Access Never) architecture feature is available. - Disable fine-grained traps at boot and improve the documented boot requirements. - Support CONFIG_KASAN_VMALLOC on arm64 (only with KASAN_GENERIC). - Add hierarchical eXecute Never permissions for all page tables. - Add arm64 prctl(PR_PAC_{SET,GET}_ENABLED_KEYS) allowing user programs to control which PAC keys are enabled in a particular task. - arm64 kselftests for BTI and some improvements to the MTE tests. - Minor improvements to the compat vdso and sigpage. - Miscellaneous cleanups. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAABCgAdFiEE5RElWfyWxS+3PLO2a9axLQDIXvEFAmB5xkkACgkQa9axLQDI XvEBgRAAsr6r8gsBQJP3FDHmbtbVf2ej5QJTCOAQAGHbTt0JH7Pk03pWSBr7h5nF vsddRDxxeDgB6xd7jWP7EvDaPxHeB0CdSj5gG8EP/ZdOm8sFAwB1ZIHWikgUgSwW nu6R28yXTMSj+EkyFtahMhTMJ1EMF4sCPuIgAo59ST5w/UMMqLCJByOu4ej6RPKZ aeSJJWaDLBmbgnTKWxRvCc/MgIx4J/LAHWGkdpGjuMK6SLp38Kdf86XcrklXtzwf K30ZYeoKq8zZ+nFOsK9gBVlOlocZcbS1jEbN842jD6imb6vKLQtBWrKk9A6o4v5E XulORWcSBhkZb3ItIU9+6SmelUExf0VeVlSp657QXYPgquoIIGvFl6rCwhrdGMGO bi6NZKCfJvcFZJoIN1oyhuHejgZSBnzGEcvhvzNdg7ItvOCed7q3uXcGHz/OI6tL 2TZKddzHSEMVfTo0D+RUsYfasZHI1qAiQ0mWVC31c+YHuRuW/K/jlc3a5TXlSBUa Dwu0/zzMLiqx65ISx9i7XNMrngk55uzrS6MnwSByPoz4M4xsElZxt3cbUxQ8YAQz jhxTHs1Pwes8i7f4n61ay/nHCFbmVvN/LlsPRpZdwd8JumThLrDolF3tc6aaY0xO hOssKtnGY4Xvh/WitfJ5uvDb1vMObJKTXQEoZEJh4hlNQDxdeUE= =6NGI -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'arm64-upstream' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas: - MTE asynchronous support for KASan.

Support for enhanced split lock detection:
Newer CPUs provide a second mechanism to detect operations with lock prefix which go accross a cache line boundary. Such operations have to take bus lock which causes a system wide performance degradation when these operations happen frequently. The new mechanism is not using the #AC exception. It triggers #DB and is restricted to operations in user space. Kernel side split lock access can only be detected by the #AC based variant. Contrary to the #AC based mechanism the #DB based variant triggers _after_ the instruction was executed. The mechanism is CPUID enumerated and contrary to the #AC version which is based on the magic TEST_CTRL_MSR and model/family based enumeration on the way to become architectural. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQJHBAABCgAxFiEEQp8+kY+LLUocC4bMphj1TA10mKEFAmCGkr8THHRnbHhAbGlu dXRyb25peC5kZQAKCRCmGPVMDXSYodUKD/9tUXhInR7+1ykEHpMvdmSp48vqY3nc sKmT22pPl+OchnJ62mw3T8gKpBYVleJmcCaY2qVx7hfaVcWApLGJvX4tmfXmv422 XDSJ6b8Os6wfgx5FR//I17z8ZtXnnuKkPrTMoRsQUw2qLq31y6fdQv+GW/cc1Kpw mengjmPE+HnpaKbtuQfPdc4a+UvLjvzBMAlDZPTBPKYrP4FFqYVnUVwyTg5aLVDY gHz4V8+b502RS/zPfTAtE3J848od+NmcUPdFlcG9DVA+hR0Rl0thvruCTFiD2vVh i9DJ7INof5FoJDEzh0dGsD7x+MB6OY8GZyHdUMeGgIRPtWkqrG52feQQIn2YYlaL fB3DlpNv7NIJ/0JMlALvh8S0tEoOcYdHqH+M/3K/zbzecg/FAo+lVo8WciGLPqWs ykUG5/f/OnlTvgB8po1ebJu0h0jHnoK9heWWXk9zWIRVDPXHFOWKW3kSbTTb3icR 9hfjP/SNejpmt9Ju1OTwsgnV7NALIdVX+G5jyIEsjFl31Co1RZNYhHLFvi11FWlQ /ssvFK9O5ZkliocGCAN9+yuOnM26VqWSCE4fis6/2aSgD2Y4Gpvb//cP96SrcNAH u8eXNvGLlniJP3F3JImWIfIPQTrpvQhcU4eZ6NtviXqj/utQXX6c9PZ1PLYpcvUh 9AWF8rwhT8X4oA== =lmi8 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'x86-splitlock-2021-04-26' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull x86 bus lock detection updates from Thomas Gleixner: "Support for enhanced split lock detection: Newer CPUs provide a second mechanism to detect operations with lock prefix which go accross a cache line boundary.

Entry code update:
Provide support for randomized stack offsets per syscall to make stack-based attacks harder which rely on the deterministic stack layout. The feature is based on the original idea of PaX's RANDSTACK feature, but uses a significantly different implementation. The offset does not affect the pt_regs location on the task stack as this was agreed on to be of dubious value. The offset is applied before the actual syscall is invoked. The offset is stored per cpu and the randomization happens at the end of the syscall which is less predictable than on syscall entry. The mechanism to apply the offset is via alloca(), i.e. abusing the dispised VLAs. This comes with the drawback that stack-clash-protection has to be disabled for the affected compilation units and there is also a negative interaction with stack-protector. Those downsides are traded with the advantage that this approach does not require any intrusive changes to the low level assembly entry code, does not affect the unwinder and the correct stack alignment is handled automatically by the compiler. The feature is guarded with a static branch which avoids the overhead when disabled. Currently this is supported for X86 and ARM64. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQJHBAABCgAxFiEEQp8+kY+LLUocC4bMphj1TA10mKEFAmCGjz8THHRnbHhAbGlu dXRyb25peC5kZQAKCRCmGPVMDXSYoWsvD/4tGnPAurd6lbzxWzRjW7jOOVyzkODM UXtIxxICaj7o6MNcloaGe1QtJ8+QOCw3yPQfLG/SoWHse5+oUKQRL9dmWVeJyRSt JZ1pirkKqWrB+OmPbJKUiO3/TsZ2Z/vO41JVgVTL5/HWhOECSDzZsJkuvF/H+qYD ReDzd7FUNd76pwVOsXq/cxXclRa81/wMNZRVwmyAwFYE2XoPtQyTERTLrfj6aQKF P0txr9fEjYlPPwYOk1kjBAoJfDltNm48BBL7CGZtRlsqpNpdsJ1MkeGffhodb6F0 pJYQMlQJHXABZb5GF+v93+iASDpRFn0EvPmLkCxQUfZYLOkRsnuEF2S/fsYX/WPo uin/wQKwLVdeQq9d9BwlZUKEgsQuV7Q0GVN+JnEQerwD6cWTxv4a1RIUH+K/4Wo5 nTeJVRKcs6m7UkGQRm8JbqnUP0vCV+PSiWWB8J9CmjYeCPbkGjt6mBIsmPaDZ9VL 4i+UX5DJayoREF/rspOBcJftUmExize49p9860UI9N6fd7DsDt7Dq9Ai+ADtZa4C 9BPbF4NWzJq8IWLqBi+PpKBAT3JMX9qQi7s9sbrRxpxtew9Keu5qggKZJYumX71V qgUMk+xB86HZOrtF6F3oY0zxYv3haPvDydsDgqojtqNGk4PdAdgDYJQwMlb8QSly SwIWPHIfvP4R9w== =GMlJ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'x86-entry-2021-04-26' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull entry code update from Thomas Gleixner: "Provide support for randomized stack offsets per syscall to make stack-based attacks harder which rely on the deterministic stack layout.

This comes with the drawback that stack-clash-protection has to be disabled for the affected compilation units and there is also a negative interaction with stack-protector. Those downsides are traded with the advantage that this approach does not require any intrusive changes to the low level assembly entry code, does not affect the unwinder and the correct stack alignment is handled automatically by the compiler. The feature is guarded with a static branch which avoids the overhead when disabled.

KEYS: trusted: Add generic trusted keys framework
Current trusted keys framework is tightly coupled to use TPM device as an underlying implementation which makes it difficult for implementations like Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) etc. to provide trusted keys support in case platform doesn't posses a TPM device. Add a generic trusted keys framework where underlying implementations can be easily plugged in. Create struct trusted_key_ops to achieve this, which contains necessary functions of a backend. Also, define a module parameter in order to select a particular trust source in case a platform support multiple trust sources. In case its not specified then implementation itetrates through trust sources list starting with TPM and assign the first trust source as a backend which has initiazed successfully during iteration. Note that current implementation only supports a single trust source at runtime which is either selectable at compile time or during boot via aforementioned module parameter.

arm64: Get rid of CONFIG_ARM64_VHE
CONFIG_ARM64_VHE was introduced with ARMv8.1 (some 7 years ago), and has been enabled by default for almost all that time. Given that newer systems that are VHE capable are finally becoming available, and that some systems are even incapable of not running VHE, drop the configuration altogether.

stack: Optionally randomize kernel stack offset each syscall
This provides the ability for architectures to enable kernel stack base address offset randomization. This feature is controlled by the boot param "randomize_kstack_offset=on/off", with its default value set by CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_KSTACK_OFFSET_DEFAULT. This feature is based on the original idea from the last public release of PaX's RANDKSTACK feature: https://pax.grsecurity.net/docs/randkstack.txt All the credit for the original idea goes to the PaX team. Note that the design and implementation of this upstream randomize_kstack_offset feature differs greatly from the RANDKSTACK feature (see below). Reasoning for the feature: This feature aims to make harder the various stack-based attacks that rely on deterministic stack structure. We have had many such attacks in past (just to name few): https://jon.oberheide.org/files/infiltrate12-thestackisback.pdf https://jon.oberheide.org/files/stackjacking-infiltrate11.pdf https://googleprojectzero.blogspot.com/2016/06/exploiting-recursion-in-linux-kernel_20.html As Linux kernel stack protections have been constantly improving (vmap-based stack allocation with guard pages, removal of thread_info, STACKLEAK), attackers have had to find new ways for their exploits to work. They have done so, continuing to rely on the kernel's stack determinism, in situations where VMAP_STACK and THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK_STRUCT were not relevant. For example, the following recent attacks would have been hampered if the stack offset was non-deterministic between syscalls: https://repositorio-aberto.up.pt/bitstream/10216/125357/2/374717.pdf (page 70: targeting the pt_regs copy with linear stack overflow) https://a13xp0p0v.github.io/2020/02/15/CVE-2019-18683.html (leaked stack address from one syscall as a target during next syscall) The main idea is that since the stack offset is randomized on each system call, it is harder for an attack to reliably land in any particular place on the thread stack, even with address exposures, as the stack base will change on the next syscall. Also, since randomization is performed after placing pt_regs, the ptrace-based approach[1] to discover the randomized offset during a long-running syscall should not be possible. Design description: During most of the kernel's execution, it runs on the "thread stack", which is pretty deterministic in its structure: it is fixed in size, and on every entry from userspace to kernel on a syscall the thread stack starts construction from an address fetched from the per-cpu cpu_current_top_of_stack variable. The first element to be pushed to the thread stack is the pt_regs struct that stores all required CPU registers and syscall parameters. Finally the specific syscall function is called, with the stack being used as the kernel executes the resulting request. The goal of randomize_kstack_offset feature is to add a random offset after the pt_regs has been pushed to the stack and before the rest of the thread stack is used during the syscall processing, and to change it every time a process issues a syscall. The source of randomness is currently architecture-defined (but x86 is using the low byte of rdtsc()). Future improvements for different entropy sources is possible, but out of scope for this patch. Further more, to add more unpredictability, new offsets are chosen at the end of syscalls (the timing of which should be less easy to measure from userspace than at syscall entry time), and stored in a per-CPU variable, so that the life of the value does not stay explicitly tied to a single task. As suggested by Andy Lutomirski, the offset is added using alloca() and an empty asm() statement with an output constraint, since it avoids changes to assembly syscall entry code, to the unwinder, and provides correct stack alignment as defined by the compiler. In order to make this available by default with zero performance impact for those that don't want it, it is boot-time selectable with static branches. This way, if the overhead is not wanted, it can just be left turned off with no performance impact. The generated assembly for x86_64 with GCC looks like this: ... ffffffff81003977: 65 8b 05 02 ea 00 7f mov %gs:0x7f00ea02(%rip),%eax # 12380 <kstack_offset> ffffffff8100397e: 25 ff 03 00 00 and $0x3ff,%eax ffffffff81003983: 48 83 c0 0f add $0xf,%rax ffffffff81003987: 25 f8 07 00 00 and $0x7f8,%eax ffffffff8100398c: 48 29 c4 sub %rax,%rsp ffffffff8100398f: 48 8d 44 24 0f lea 0xf(%rsp),%rax ffffffff81003994: 48 83 e0 f0 and $0xfffffffffffffff0,%rax ... As a result of the above stack alignment, this patch introduces about 5 bits of randomness after pt_regs is spilled to the thread stack on x86_64, and 6 bits on x86_32 (since its has 1 fewer bit required for stack alignment). The amount of entropy could be adjusted based on how much of the stack space we wish to trade for security. My measure of syscall performance overhead (on x86_64): lmbench: /usr/lib/lmbench/bin/x86_64-linux-gnu/lat_syscall -N 10000 null randomize_kstack_offset=y Simple syscall: 0.7082 microseconds randomize_kstack_offset=n Simple syscall: 0.7016 microseconds So, roughly 0.9% overhead growth for a no-op syscall, which is very manageable. And for people that don't want this, it's off by default. There are two gotchas with using the alloca() trick. First, compilers that have Stack Clash protection (-fstack-clash-protection) enabled by default (e.g. Ubuntu[3]) add pagesize stack probes to any dynamic stack allocations. While the randomization offset is always less than a page, the resulting assembly would still contain (unreachable!) probing routines, bloating the resulting assembly. To avoid this, -fno-stack-clash-protection is unconditionally added to the kernel Makefile since this is the only dynamic stack allocation in the kernel (now that VLAs have been removed) and it is provably safe from Stack Clash style attacks. The second gotcha with alloca() is a negative interaction with -fstack-protector*, in that it sees the alloca() as an array allocation, which triggers the unconditional addition of the stack canary function pre/post-amble which slows down syscalls regardless of the static branch. In order to avoid adding this unneeded check and its associated performance impact, architectures need to carefully remove uses of -fstack-protector-strong (or -fstack-protector) in the compilation units that use the add_random_kstack() macro and to audit the resulting stack mitigation coverage (to make sure no desired coverage disappears). No change is visible for this on x86 because the stack protector is already unconditionally disabled for the compilation unit, but the change is required on arm64. There is, unfortunately, no attribute that can be used to disable stack protector for specific functions. Comparison to PaX RANDKSTACK feature: The RANDKSTACK feature randomizes the location of the stack start (cpu_current_top_of_stack), i.e. including the location of pt_regs structure itself on the stack. Initially this patch followed the same approach, but during the recent discussions[2], it has been determined to be of a little value since, if ptrace functionality is available for an attacker, they can use PTRACE_PEEKUSR/PTRACE_POKEUSR to read/write different offsets in the pt_regs struct, observe the cache behavior of the pt_regs accesses, and figure out the random stack offset. Another difference is that the random offset is stored in a per-cpu variable, rather than having it be per-thread. As a result, these implementations differ a fair bit in their implementation details and results, though obviously the intent is similar.

pata_legacy: Add `probe_mask' parameter like with ide-generic

This testing is controlled by two new boolean module parameters, kfree_rcu_test_single and kfree_rcu_test_double. If one is set and the other not, only the corresponding variant is tested, otherwise both are tested, with the variant to be tested determined randomly on each invocation.

So deprecate the use of "all" by removing documentation references to it.

In order to help identifying problems with IPI handling and remote function execution add some more data to IPI debugging code. There have been multiple reports of CPUs looping long times (many seconds) in smp_call_function_many() waiting for another CPU executing a function like tlb flushing. Most of these reports have been for cases where the kernel was running as a guest on top of KVM or Xen (there are rumours of that happening under VMWare, too, and even on bare metal). Finding the root cause hasn't been successful yet, even after more than 2 years of chasing this bug by different developers. Commit: |

locking/csd_lock: Add boot parameter for controlling CSD lock debugging
Currently CSD lock debugging can be switched on and off via a kernel config option only. Unfortunately there is at least one problem with CSD lock handling pending for about 2 years now, which has been seen in different environments (mostly when running virtualized under KVM or Xen, at least once on bare metal). Multiple attempts to catch this issue have finally led to introduction of CSD lock debug code, but this code is not in use in most distros as it has some impact on performance. In order to be able to ship kernels with CONFIG_CSD_LOCK_WAIT_DEBUG enabled even for production use, add a boot parameter for switching the debug functionality on. This will reduce any performance impact of the debug coding to a bare minimum when not being used.

Driver core / debugfs update for 5.12-rc1
Here is the "big" driver core and debugfs update for 5.12-rc1 This set of driver core patches caused a bunch of problems in linux-next for the past few weeks, when Saravana tried to set fw_devlink=on as the default functionality. This caused a number of systems to stop booting, and lots of bugs were fixed in this area for almost all of the reported systems, but this option is not ready to be turned on just yet for the default operation based on this testing, so I've reverted that change at the very end so we don't have to worry about regressions in 5.12. We will try to turn this on for 5.13 if testing goes better over the next few months. Other than the fixes caused by the fw_devlink testing in here, there's not much more: - debugfs fixes for invalid input into debugfs_lookup() - kerneldoc cleanups - warn message if platform drivers return an error on their remove callback (a futile effort, but good to catch). All of these have been in linux-next for a while now, and the regressions have gone away with the revert of the fw_devlink change.

arm64 updates for 5.12
- vDSO build improvements including support for building with BSD. - Cleanup to the AMU support code and initialisation rework to support cpufreq drivers built as modules. - Removal of synthetic frame record from exception stack when entering the kernel from EL0. - Add support for the TRNG firmware call introduced by Arm spec DEN0098. - Cleanup and refactoring across the board. - Avoid calling arch_get_random_seed_long() from add_interrupt_randomness() - Perf and PMU updates including support for Cortex-A78 and the v8.3 SPE extensions. - Significant steps along the road to leaving the MMU enabled during kexec relocation. - Faultaround changes to initialise prefaulted PTEs as 'old' when hardware access-flag updates are supported, which drastically improves vmscan performance. - CPU errata updates for Cortex-A76 (#1463225) and Cortex-A55 (#1024718) - Preparatory work for yielding the vector unit at a finer granularity in the crypto code, which in turn will one day allow us to defer softirq processing when it is in use. - Support for overriding CPU ID register fields on the command-line. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQFEBAABCgAuFiEEPxTL6PPUbjXGY88ct6xw3ITBYzQFAmAmwZcQHHdpbGxAa2Vy bmVsLm9yZwAKCRC3rHDchMFjNLA1B/0XMwWUhmJ4ZPK4sr28YWHNGLuCFHDgkMKU dEmS806OF9d0J7fTczGsKdS4IKtXWko67Z0UGiPIStwfm0itSW2Zgbo9KZeDPqPI fH0s23nQKxUMyNW7b9p4cTV3YuGVMZSBoMug2jU2DEDpSqeGBk09NPi6inERBCz/ qZxcqXTKxXbtOY56eJmq09UlFZiwfONubzuCrrUH7LU8ZBSInM/6Q4us/oVm4zYI Pnv996mtL4UxRqq/KoU9+cQ1zsI01kt9/coHwfCYvSpZEVAnTWtfECsJ690tr3mF TSKQLvOzxbDtU+HcbkNVKW0A38EIO1xXr8yXW9SJx6BJBkyb24xo =IwMb -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'arm64-upstream' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon: - vDSO build improvements including support for building with BSD. - Cleanup to the AMU support code and initialisation rework to support cpufreq drivers built as modules. - Removal of synthetic frame record from exception stack when entering the kernel from EL0. - Add support for the TRNG firmware call introduced by Arm spec DEN0098. - Cleanup and refactoring across the board. - Avoid calling arch_get_random_seed_long() from add_interrupt_randomness() - Perf and PMU updates including support for Cortex-A78 and the v8.3 SPE extensions. - Significant steps along the road to leaving the MMU enabled during kexec relocation. - Faultaround changes to initialise prefaulted PTEs as 'old' when hardware access-flag updates are supported, which drastically improves vmscan performance. - CPU errata updates for Cortex-A76 (#1463225) and Cortex-A55 (#1024718) - Preparatory work for yielding the vector unit at a finer granularity in the crypto code, which in turn will one day allow us to defer softirq processing when it is in use. - Support for overriding CPU ID register fields on the command-line. * tag 'arm64-upstream' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux: (85 commits) drivers/perf: Replace spin_lock_irqsave to spin_lock mm: filemap: Fix microblaze build failure with 'mmu_defconfig' arm64: Make CPU_BIG_ENDIAN depend on ld.bfd or ld.lld 13.0.0+ arm64: cpufeatures: Allow disabling of Pointer Auth from the command-line arm64: Defer enabling pointer authentication on boot core arm64: cpufeatures: Allow disabling of BTI from the command-line arm64: Move "nokaslr" over to the early cpufeature infrastructure KVM: arm64: Document HVC_VHE_RESTART stub hypercall arm64: Make kvm-arm.mode={nvhe, protected} an alias of id_aa64mmfr1.vh=0 arm64: Add an aliasing facility for the idreg override arm64: Honor VHE being disabled from the command-line arm64: Allow ID_AA64MMFR1_EL1.VH to be overridden from the command line arm64: cpufeature: Add an early command-line cpufeature override facility arm64: Extract early FDT mapping from kaslr_early_init() arm64: cpufeature: Use IDreg override in __read_sysreg_by_encoding() arm64: cpufeature: Add global feature override facility arm64: Move SCTLR_EL1 initialisation to EL-agnostic code arm64: Simplify init_el2_state to be non-VHE only arm64: Move VHE-specific SPE setup to mutate_to_vhe() arm64: Drop early setting of MDSCR_EL2.TPMS ... |

The performance event updates for v5.12 are:
- Add CPU-PMU support for Intel Sapphire Rapids CPUs - Extend the perf ABI with PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_STRUCT, to offer two-parameter sampling event feedback.

Scheduler updates for v5.12:
[ NOTE: unfortunately this tree had to be freshly rebased today, it's a same-content tree of 82891be90f3c (-next published) merged with v5.11. The main reason for the rebase was an authorship misattribution problem with a new commit, which we noticed in the last minute, and which we didn't want to be merged upstream. The offending commit was deep in the tree, and dependent commits had to be rebased as well. ] - Core scheduler updates: - Add CONFIG_PREEMPT_DYNAMIC: this in its current form adds the preempt=none/voluntary/full boot options (default: full), to allow distros to build a PREEMPT kernel but fall back to close to PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY (or PREEMPT_NONE) runtime scheduling behavior via a boot time selection. There's also the /debug/sched_debug switch to do this runtime. This feature is implemented via runtime patching (a new variant of static calls). The scope of the runtime patching can be best reviewed by looking at the sched_dynamic_update() function in kernel/sched/core.c. ( Note that the dynamic none/voluntary mode isn't 100% identical, for example preempt-RCU is available in all cases, plus the preempt count is maintained in all models, which has runtime overhead even with the code patching. ) The PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY/PREEMPT_NONE models, used by the vast majority of distributions, are supposed to be unaffected. - Fix ignored rescheduling after rcu_eqs_enter(). This is a bug that was found via rcutorture triggering a hang. The bug is that rcu_idle_enter() may wake up a NOCB kthread, but this happens after the last generic need_resched() check. Some cpuidle drivers fix it by chance but many others don't. In true 2020 fashion the original bug fix has grown into a 5-patch scheduler/RCU fix series plus another 16 RCU patches to address the underlying issue of missed preemption events. These are the initial fixes that should fix current incarnations of the bug. - Clean up rbtree usage in the scheduler, by providing & using the following consistent set of rbtree APIs: partial-order; less() based: - rb_add(): add a new entry to the rbtree - rb_add_cached(): like rb_add(), but for a rb_root_cached total-order; cmp() based: - rb_find(): find an entry in an rbtree - rb_find_add(): find an entry, and add if not found - rb_find_first(): find the first (leftmost) matching entry - rb_next_match(): continue from rb_find_first() - rb_for_each(): iterate a sub-tree using the previous two - Improve the SMP/NUMA load-balancer: scan for an idle sibling in a single pass. This is a 4-commit series where each commit improves one aspect of the idle sibling scan logic. - Improve the cpufreq cooling driver by getting the effective CPU utilization metrics from the scheduler - Improve the fair scheduler's active load-balancing logic by reducing the number of active LB attempts & lengthen the load-balancing interval. This improves stress-ng mmapfork performance. - Fix CFS's estimated utilization (util_est) calculation bug that can result in too high utilization values - Misc updates & fixes: - Fix the HRTICK reprogramming & optimization feature - Fix SCHED_SOFTIRQ raising race & warning in the CPU offlining code - Reduce dl_add_task_root_domain() overhead - Fix uprobes refcount bug - Process pending softirqs in flush_smp_call_function_from_idle() - Clean up task priority related defines, remove *USER_*PRIO and USER_PRIO() - Simplify the sched_init_numa() deduplication sort - Documentation updates - Fix EAS bug in update_misfit_status(), which degraded the quality of energy-balancing - Smaller cleanups Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQJFBAABCgAvFiEEBpT5eoXrXCwVQwEKEnMQ0APhK1gFAmAtHBsRHG1pbmdvQGtl cm5lbC5vcmcACgkQEnMQ0APhK1itgg/+NGed12pgPjYBzesdou60Lvx7LZLGjfOt M1F1EnmQGn/hEH2fCY6ZoqIZQTVltm7GIcBNabzYTzlaHZsdtyuDUJBZyj19vTlk zekcj7WVt+qvfjChaNwEJhQ9nnOM/eohMgEOHMAAJd9zlnQvve7NOLQ56UDM+kn/ 9taFJ5ZPvb4avP6C5p3KivvKex6Bjof/Tl0m3utpNyPpI/qK3FyGxwdgCxU0yepT ABWQX5ZQCufFvo1bgnBPfqyzab4MqhoM3bNKBsLQfuAlssG1xRv4KQOev4dRwrt9 pXJikV5C9yez5d2lGe5p0ltH5IZS/l9x2yI/ZQj3OUDTFyV1ic6WfFAqJgDzVF8E i/vvA4NPQiI241Bkps+ErcCw4aVOgiY6TWli74cHjLUIX0+As6aHrFWXGSxUmiHB WR+B8KmdfzRTTlhOxMA+cvlpZcKCfxWkJJmXzr/lDZzIuKPqM3QCE2wD9sixkfVo JNICT0IvZghWOdbMEfZba8Psh/e2LVI9RzdpEiuYJz1ZrVlt1hO0M6jBxY0hMz9n k54z81xODw0a8P2FHMtpmB1vhAeqCmvwA6DO8z0Oxs0DFi+KM2bLf2efHsCKafI+ Bm5v9YFaOk/55R76hJVh+aYLlyFgFkKd+P/niJTPDnxOk3SqJuXvTrql1HeGHkNr kYgQa23dsZk= =pyaG -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'sched-core-2021-02-17' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar: "Core scheduler updates: - Add CONFIG_PREEMPT_DYNAMIC: this in its current form adds the preempt=none/voluntary/full boot options (default: full), to allow distros to build a PREEMPT kernel but fall back to close to PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY (or PREEMPT_NONE) runtime scheduling behavior via a boot time selection.

preempt: Introduce CONFIG_PREEMPT_DYNAMIC
Preemption mode selection is currently hardcoded on Kconfig choices. Introduce a dedicated option to tune preemption flavour at boot time, This will be only available on architectures efficiently supporting static calls in order not to tempt with the feature against additional overhead that might be prohibitive or undesirable. CONFIG_PREEMPT_DYNAMIC is automatically selected by CONFIG_PREEMPT if the architecture provides the necessary support (CONFIG_STATIC_CALL_INLINE, CONFIG_GENERIC_ENTRY, and provide with __preempt_schedule_function() / __preempt_schedule_notrace_function()).

lib/vsprintf: no_hash_pointers prints all addresses as unhashed
If the no_hash_pointers command line parameter is set, then printk("%p") will print pointers as unhashed, which is useful for debugging purposes. This change applies to any function that uses vsprintf, such as print_hex_dump() and seq_buf_printf(). A large warning message is displayed if this option is enabled. Unhashed pointers expose kernel addresses, which can be a security risk. Also update test_printf to skip the hashed pointer tests if the command-line option is set.

Merge branch 'for-mingo-rcu' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu into core/rcu
Pull RCU updates from Paul E. McKenney: - Documentation updates. - Miscellaneous fixes. - kfree_rcu() updates: Addition of mem_dump_obj() to provide allocator return addresses to more easily locate bugs. This has a couple of RCU-related commits, but is mostly MM. Was pulled in with akpm's agreement. - Per-callback-batch tracking of numbers of callbacks, which enables better debugging information and smarter reactions to large numbers of callbacks. - The first round of changes to allow CPUs to be runtime switched from and to callback-offloaded state. - CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT-related changes. - RCU CPU stall warning updates. - Addition of polling grace-period APIs for SRCU. - Torture-test and torture-test scripting updates, including a "torture everything" script that runs rcutorture, locktorture, scftorture, rcuscale, and refscale. Plus does an allmodconfig build. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> |

Documentation/admin-guide: kernel-parameters: Update nohlt section
Update the documentation regarding "nohlt" and indicate that it is not only for bugs, but can be useful to disable the architecture specific sleep instructions. ARM, ARM64, SuperH and Microblaze all use CONFIG_GENERIC_IDLE_POLL_SETUP which takes care of honoring the "hlt"/"nohlt" parameters.

x86/apb_timer: Remove driver for deprecated platform
Intel Moorestown and Medfield are quite old Intel Atom based
32-bit platforms, which were in limited use in some Android phones,
tablets and consumer electronics more than eight years ago.
There are no bugs or problems ever reported outside from Intel
for breaking any of that platforms for years. It seems no real
users exists who run more or less fresh kernel on it. Commit

arm64: cpufeatures: Allow disabling of Pointer Auth from the command-line
In order to be able to disable Pointer Authentication at runtime, whether it is for testing purposes, or to work around HW issues, let's add support for overriding the ID_AA64ISAR1_EL1.{GPI,GPA,API,APA} fields. This is further mapped on the arm64.nopauth command-line alias.

arm64: Make kvm-arm.mode={nvhe, protected} an alias of id_aa64mmfr1.vh=0
Admitedly, passing id_aa64mmfr1.vh=0 on the command-line isn't that easy to understand, and it is likely that users would much prefer write "kvm-arm.mode=nvhe", or "...=protected". So here you go. This has the added advantage that we can now always honor the "kvm-arm.mode=protected" option, even when booting on a VHE system.
