Charan Teja Reddy 65d759c8f9 mm: compaction: support triggering of proactive compaction by user
The proactive compaction[1] gets triggered for every 500msec and run
compaction on the node for COMPACTION_HPAGE_ORDER (usually order-9) pages
based on the value set to sysctl.compaction_proactiveness.  Triggering the
compaction for every 500msec in search of COMPACTION_HPAGE_ORDER pages is
not needed for all applications, especially on the embedded system
usecases which may have few MB's of RAM.  Enabling the proactive
compaction in its state will endup in running almost always on such
systems.

Other side, proactive compaction can still be very much useful for getting
a set of higher order pages in some controllable manner(controlled by
using the sysctl.compaction_proactiveness).  So, on systems where enabling
the proactive compaction always may proove not required, can trigger the
same from user space on write to its sysctl interface.  As an example, say
app launcher decide to launch the memory heavy application which can be
launched fast if it gets more higher order pages thus launcher can prepare
the system in advance by triggering the proactive compaction from
userspace.

This triggering of proactive compaction is done on a write to
sysctl.compaction_proactiveness by user.

Andy Shevchenko f39650de68 kernel.h: split out panic and oops helpers
kernel.h is being used as a dump for all kinds of stuff for a long time.
Here is the attempt to start cleaning it up by splitting out panic and
oops helpers.

There are several purposes of doing this:
- dropping dependency in bug.h
- dropping a loop by moving out panic_notifier.h
- unload kernel.h from something which has its own domain

At the same time convert users tree-wide to use new headers, although for
the time being include new header back to kernel.h to avoid twisted
indirected includes for existing users.

Mel Gorman 74f4482209 mm/page_alloc: introduce vm.percpu_pagelist_high_fraction
This introduces a new sysctl vm.percpu_pagelist_high_fraction.  It is
similar to the old vm.percpu_pagelist_fraction.  The old sysctl increased
both pcp->batch and pcp->high with the higher pcp->high potentially
reducing zone->lock contention.  However, the higher pcp->batch value also
potentially increased allocation latency while the PCP was refilled.  This
sysctl only adjusts pcp->high so that zone->lock contention is potentially
reduced but allocation latency during a PCP refill remains the same.

  # grep -E "high:|batch" /proc/zoneinfo | tail -2
              high:  649
              batch: 63

  # sysctl vm.percpu_pagelist_high_fraction=8
  # grep -E "high:|batch" /proc/zoneinfo | tail -2
              high:  35071

Mel Gorman bbbecb35a4 mm/page_alloc: delete vm.percpu_pagelist_fraction
Patch series "Calculate pcp->high based on zone sizes and active CPUs", v2.

The per-cpu page allocator (PCP) is meant to reduce contention on the zone
lock but the sizing of batch and high is archaic and neither takes the
zone size into account or the number of CPUs local to a zone.  With larger
zones and more CPUs per node, the contention is getting worse.
Furthermore, the fact that vm.percpu_pagelist_fraction adjusts both batch
and high values means that the sysctl can reduce zone lock contention but
also increase allocation latencies.

This series disassociates pcp->high from pcp->batch and then scales
pcp->high based on the size of the local zone with limited impact to
reclaim and accounting for active CPUs but leaves pcp->batch static.  It
also adapts the number of pages that can be on the pcp list based on
recent freeing patterns.

The motivation is partially to adjust to larger memory sizes but is also
driven by the fact that large batches of page freeing via release_pages()
often shows zone contention as a major part of the problem.  Another is a
bug report based on an older kernel where a multi-terabyte process can
takes several minutes to exit.  A workaround was to use
vm.percpu_pagelist_fraction to increase the pcp->high value but testing
indicated that a production workload could not use the same values because
of an increase in allocation latencies.  Unfortunately, I cannot reproduce
this test case myself as the multi-terabyte machines are in active use but
it should alleviate the problem.

The series aims to address both and partially acts as a pre-requisite.
pcp only works with order-0 which is useless for SLUB (when using high
orders) and THP (unconditionally).  To store high-order pages on PCP, the
pcp->high values need to be increased first.

This patch (of 6):

The vm.percpu_pagelist_fraction is used to increase the batch and high
limits for the per-cpu page allocator (PCP).  The intent behind the sysctl
is to reduce zone lock acquisition when allocating/freeing pages but it
has a problem.  While it can decrease contention, it can also increase
latency on the allocation side due to unreasonably large batch sizes.
This leads to games where an administrator adjusts
percpu_pagelist_fraction on the fly to work around contention and
allocation latency problems.

This series aims to alleviate the problems with zone lock contention while
avoiding the allocation-side latency problems.  For the purposes of
review, it's easier to remove this sysctl now and reintroduce a similar
sysctl later in the series that deals only with pcp->high.

Daniel Borkmann 08389d8882 bpf: Add kconfig knob for disabling unpriv bpf by default
Add a kconfig knob which allows for unprivileged bpf to be disabled by default.
If set, the knob sets /proc/sys/kernel/unprivileged_bpf_disabled to value of 2.

This still allows a transition of 2 -> {0,1} through an admin. Similarly,
this also still keeps 1 -> {1} behavior intact, so that once set to permanently
disabled, it cannot be undone aside from a reboot.

We've also added extra2 with max of 2 for the procfs handler, so that an admin
still has a chance to toggle between 0 <-> 2.

Either way, as an additional alternative, applications can make use of CAP_BPF
that we added a while ago.

acts as a place holder for sysctl to store .data.

But the .data itself is not needed here.

So we can get ride of this variable completely and make .data as NULL.
This will also eliminate the extern declaration from header file.  No
functionality is broken or changed this way.

Linus Torvalds 9d31d23389 Networking changes for 5.13.
Core:
 
  - bpf:
 	- allow bpf programs calling kernel functions (initially to
 	  reuse TCP congestion control implementations)
 	- enable task local storage for tracing programs - remove the
 	  need to store per-task state in hash maps, and allow tracing
 	  programs access to task local storage previously added for
 	  BPF_LSM
 	- add bpf_for_each_map_elem() helper, allowing programs to
 	  walk all map elements in a more robust and easier to verify
 	  fashion
 	- sockmap: support UDP and cross-protocol BPF_SK_SKB_VERDICT
 	  redirection
 	- lpm: add support for batched ops in LPM trie
 	- add BTF_KIND_FLOAT support - mostly to allow use of BTF
 	  on s390 which has floats in its headers files
 	- improve BPF syscall documentation and extend the use of kdoc
 	  parsing scripts we already employ for bpf-helpers
 	- libbpf, bpftool: support static linking of BPF ELF files
 	- improve support for encapsulation of L2 packets
 
  - xdp: restructure redirect actions to avoid a runtime lookup,
 	improving performance by 4-8% in microbenchmarks
 
  - xsk: build skb by page (aka generic zerocopy xmit) - improve
 	performance of software AF_XDP path by 33% for devices
 	which don't need headers in the linear skb part (e.g. virtio)
 
  - nexthop: resilient next-hop groups - improve path stability
 	on next-hops group changes (incl. offload for mlxsw)
 
  - ipv6: segment routing: add support for IPv4 decapsulation
 
  - icmp: add support for RFC 8335 extended PROBE messages
 
  - inet: use bigger hash table for IP ID generation
 
  - tcp: deal better with delayed TX completions - make sure we don't
 	give up on fast TCP retransmissions only because driver is
 	slow in reporting that it completed transmitting the original
 
  - tcp: reorder tcp_congestion_ops for better cache locality
 
  - mptcp:
 	- add sockopt support for common TCP options
 	- add support for common TCP msg flags
 	- include multiple address ids in RM_ADDR
 	- add reset option support for resetting one subflow
 
  - udp: GRO L4 improvements - improve 'forward' / 'frag_list'
 	co-existence with UDP tunnel GRO, allowing the first to take
 	place correctly	even for encapsulated UDP traffic
 
  - micro-optimize dev_gro_receive() and flow dissection, avoid
 	retpoline overhead on VLAN and TEB GRO
 
  - use less memory for sysctls, add a new sysctl type, to allow using
 	u8 instead of "int" and "long" and shrink networking sysctls
 
  - veth: allow GRO without XDP - this allows aggregating UDP
 	packets before handing them off to routing, bridge, OvS, etc.
 
  - allow specifing ifindex when device is moved to another namespace
 
  - netfilter:
 	- nft_socket: add support for cgroupsv2
 	- nftables: add catch-all set element - special element used
 	  to define a default action in case normal lookup missed
 	- use net_generic infra in many modules to avoid allocating
 	  per-ns memory unnecessarily
 
  - xps: improve the xps handling to avoid potential out-of-bound
 	accesses and use-after-free when XPS change race with other
 	re-configuration under traffic
 
  - add a config knob to turn off per-cpu netdev refcnt to catch
 	underflows in testing
 
 Device APIs:
 
  - add WWAN subsystem to organize the WWAN interfaces better and
    hopefully start driving towards more unified and vendor-
    -independent APIs
 
  - ethtool:
 	- add interface for reading IEEE MIB stats (incl. mlx5 and
 	  bnxt support)
 	- allow network drivers to dump arbitrary SFP EEPROM data,
 	  current offset+length API was a poor fit for modern SFP
 	  which define EEPROM in terms of pages (incl. mlx5 support)
 
  - act_police, flow_offload: add support for packet-per-second
 	policing (incl. offload for nfp)
 
  - psample: add additional metadata attributes like transit delay
 	for packets sampled from switch HW (and corresponding egress
 	and policy-based sampling in the mlxsw driver)
 
  - dsa: improve support for sandwiched LAGs with bridge and DSA
 
  - netfilter:
 	- flowtable: use direct xmit in topologies with IP
 	  forwarding, bridging, vlans etc.

Mel Gorman b7cc6ec744 sched/numa: Allow runtime enabling/disabling of NUMA balance without SCHED_DEBUG
The ability to enable/disable NUMA balancing is not a debugging feature
and should not depend on CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG.  For example, machines within
a HPC cluster may disable NUMA balancing temporarily for some jobs and
re-enable it for other jobs without needing to reboot.

This patch removes the dependency on CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG for
kernel.numa_balancing sysctl. The other numa balancing related sysctls
are left as-is because if they need to be tuned then it is more likely
that NUMA balancing needs to be fixed instead.

Amir Goldstein 5b8fea65d1 fanotify: configurable limits via sysfs
fanotify has some hardcoded limits. The only APIs to escape those limits
are FAN_UNLIMITED_QUEUE and FAN_UNLIMITED_MARKS.

Allow finer grained tuning of the system limits via sysfs tunables under
/proc/sys/fs/fanotify, similar to tunables under /proc/sys/fs/inotify,
with some minor differences.

- max_queued_events - global system tunable for group queue size limit.
  Like the inotify tunable with the same name, it defaults to 16384 and
  applies on initialization of a new group.

- max_user_marks - user ns tunable for marks limit per user.
  Like the inotify tunable named max_user_watches, on a machine with
  sufficient RAM and it defaults to 1048576 in init userns and can be
  further limited per containing user ns.

- max_user_groups - user ns tunable for number of groups per user.
  Like the inotify tunable named max_user_instances, it defaults to 128
  in init userns and can be further limited per containing user ns.

The slightly different tunable names used for fanotify are derived from
the "group" and "mark" terminology used in the fanotify man pages and
throughout the code.

Considering the fact that the default value for max_user_instances was
increased in kernel v5.10 from 8192 to 1048576, leaving the legacy
fanotify limit of 8192 marks per group in addition to the max_user_marks
limit makes little sense, so the per group marks limit has been removed.

Note that when a group is initialized with FAN_UNLIMITED_MARKS, its own
marks are not accounted in the per user marks account, so in effect the
limit of max_user_marks is only for the collection of groups that are
not initialized with FAN_UNLIMITED_MARKS.

Apart from subsystem specific .proc_handler handler, all ctl_tables with
extra1 and extra2 members set should use proc_dointvec_minmax instead of
proc_dointvec, or the limit set in extra* never work and potentially echo
underflow values(negative numbers) is likely make system unstable.

Especially vfs_cache_pressure and zone_reclaim_mode, -1 is apparently not
a valid value, but we can set to them.  And then kernel may crash.

Linus Torvalds 5ef64cc898 mm: allow a controlled amount of unfairness in the page lock
Commit 2a9127fcf2 ("mm: rewrite wait_on_page_bit_common() logic") made
the page locking entirely fair, in that if a waiter came in while the
lock was held, the lock would be transferred to the lockers strictly in
order.

That was intended to finally get rid of the long-reported watchdog
failures that involved the page lock under extreme load, where a process
could end up waiting essentially forever, as other page lockers stole
the lock from under it.

It also improved some benchmarks, but it ended up causing huge
performance regressions on others, simply because fair lock behavior
doesn't end up giving out the lock as aggressively, causing better
worst-case latency, but potentially much worse average latencies and
throughput.

Instead of reverting that change entirely, this introduces a controlled
amount of unfairness, with a sysctl knob to tune it if somebody needs
to.  But the default value should hopefully be good for any normal load,
allowing a few rounds of lock stealing, but enforcing the strict
ordering before the lock has been stolen too many times.

There is also a hint from Matthieu Baerts that the fair page coloring
may end up exposing an ABBA deadlock that is hidden by the usual
optimistic lock stealing, and while the unfairness doesn't fix the
fundamental issue (and I'm still looking at that), it avoids it in
practice.

The amount of unfairness can be modified by writing a new value to the
'sysctl_page_lock_unfairness' variable (default value of 5, exposed
through /proc/sys/vm/page_lock_unfairness), but that is hopefully
something we'd use mainly for debugging rather than being necessary for
any deep system tuning.

This whole issue has exposed just how critical the page lock can be, and
how contended it gets under certain locks.  And the main contention
doesn't really seem to be anything related to IO (which was the origin
of this lock), but for things like just verifying that the page file
mapping is stable while faulting in the page into a page table.

Nitin Gupta facdaa917c mm: proactive compaction
For some applications, we need to allocate almost all memory as hugepages.
However, on a running system, higher-order allocations can fail if the
memory is fragmented.  Linux kernel currently does on-demand compaction as
we request more hugepages, but this style of compaction incurs very high
latency.  Experiments with one-time full memory compaction (followed by
hugepage allocations) show that kernel is able to restore a highly
fragmented memory state to a fairly compacted memory state within <1 sec
for a 32G system.  Such data suggests that a more proactive compaction can
help us allocate a large fraction of memory as hugepages keeping
allocation latencies low.

For a more proactive compaction, the approach taken here is to define a
new sysctl called 'vm.compaction_proactiveness' which dictates bounds for
external fragmentation which kcompactd tries to maintain.

The tunable takes a value in range [0, 100], with a default of 20.

Note that a previous version of this patch [1] was found to introduce too
many tunables (per-order extfrag{low, high}), but this one reduces them to
just one sysctl.  Also, the new tunable is an opaque value instead of
asking for specific bounds of "external fragmentation", which would have
been difficult to estimate.  The internal interpretation of this opaque
value allows for future fine-tuning.

Currently, we use a simple translation from this tunable to [low, high]
"fragmentation score" thresholds (low=100-proactiveness, high=low+10%).
The score for a node is defined as weighted mean of per-zone external
fragmentation.  A zone's present_pages determines its weight.

To periodically check per-node score, we reuse per-node kcompactd threads,
which are woken up every 500 milliseconds to check the same.  If a node's
score exceeds its high threshold (as derived from user-provided
proactiveness value), proactive compaction is started until its score
reaches its low threshold value.  By default, proactiveness is set to 20,
which implies threshold values of low=80 and high=90.

This patch is largely based on ideas from Michal Hocko [2].  See also the
LWN article [3].

Performance data
================

System: x64_64, 1T RAM, 80 CPU threads.
Kernel: 5.6.0-rc3 + this patch

echo madvise | sudo tee /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled
echo madvise | sudo tee /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/defrag

Before starting the driver, the system was fragmented from a userspace
program that allocates all memory and then for each 2M aligned section,
frees 3/4 of base pages using munmap.  The workload is mainly anonymous
userspace pages, which are easy to move around.  I intentionally avoided
unmovable pages in this test to see how much latency we incur when
hugepage allocations hit direct compaction.

1. Kernel hugepage allocation latencies

With the system in such a fragmented state, a kernel driver then allocates
as many hugepages as possible and measures allocation latency:

(all latency values are in microseconds)

- With vanilla 5.6.0-rc3

  percentile latency
  –––––––––– –––––––
	   5    7894
	  10    9496
	  25   12561
	  30   15295
	  40   18244
	  50   21229
	  60   27556
	  75   30147
	  80   31047
	  90   32859
	  95   33799

Total 2M hugepages allocated = 383859 (749G worth of hugepages out of 762G
total free => 98% of free memory could be allocated as hugepages)

- With 5.6.0-rc3 + this patch, with proactiveness=20

sysctl -w vm.compaction_proactiveness=20

  percentile latency
  –––––––––– –––––––
	   5       2
	  10       2
	  25       3
	  30       3
	  40       3
	  50       4
	  60       4
	  75       4
	  80       4
	  90       5
	  95     429

Total 2M hugepages allocated = 384105 (750G worth of hugepages out of 762G
total free => 98% of free memory could be allocated as hugepages)

2. JAVA heap allocation

In this test, we first fragment memory using the same method as for (1).

Then, we start a Java process with a heap size set to 700G and request the
heap to be allocated with THP hugepages.  We also set THP to madvise to
allow hugepage backing of this heap.

/usr/bin/time
 java -Xms700G -Xmx700G -XX:+UseTransparentHugePages -XX:+AlwaysPreTouch

The above command allocates 700G of Java heap using hugepages.

- With vanilla 5.6.0-rc3

17.39user 1666.48system 27:37.89elapsed

- With 5.6.0-rc3 + this patch, with proactiveness=20

8.35user 194.58system 3:19.62elapsed

Elapsed time remains around 3:15, as proactiveness is further increased.

Note that proactive compaction happens throughout the runtime of these
workloads.  The situation of one-time compaction, sufficient to supply
hugepages for following allocation stream, can probably happen for more
extreme proactiveness values, like 80 or 90.

In the above Java workload, proactiveness is set to 20.  The test starts
with a node's score of 80 or higher, depending on the delay between the
fragmentation step and starting the benchmark, which gives more-or-less
time for the initial round of compaction.  As t he benchmark consumes
hugepages, node's score quickly rises above the high threshold (90) and
proactive compaction starts again, which brings down the score to the low
threshold level (80).  Repeat.

bpftrace also confirms proactive compaction running 20+ times during the
runtime of this Java benchmark.  kcompactd threads consume 100% of one of
the CPUs while it tries to bring a node's score within thresholds.

Backoff behavior
================

Above workloads produce a memory state which is easy to compact.  However,
if memory is filled with unmovable pages, proactive compaction should
essentially back off.  To test this aspect:

- Created a kernel driver that allocates almost all memory as hugepages
  followed by freeing first 3/4 of each hugepage.
- Set proactiveness=40
- Note that proactive_compact_node() is deferred maximum number of times
  with HPAGE_FRAG_CHECK_INTERVAL_MSEC of wait between each check
  (=> ~30 seconds between retries).

Feng Tang 56f3547bfa mm: adjust vm_committed_as_batch according to vm overcommit policy
When checking a performance change for will-it-scale scalability mmap test
[1], we found very high lock contention for spinlock of percpu counter
'vm_committed_as':

    94.14%     0.35%  [kernel.kallsyms]         [k] _raw_spin_lock_irqsave
    48.21% _raw_spin_lock_irqsave;percpu_counter_add_batch;__vm_enough_memory;mmap_region;do_mmap;
    45.91% _raw_spin_lock_irqsave;percpu_counter_add_batch;__do_munmap;

Actually this heavy lock contention is not always necessary.  The
'vm_committed_as' needs to be very precise when the strict
OVERCOMMIT_NEVER policy is set, which requires a rather small batch number
for the percpu counter.

So keep 'batch' number unchanged for strict OVERCOMMIT_NEVER policy, and
lift it to 64X for OVERCOMMIT_ALWAYS and OVERCOMMIT_GUESS policies.  Also
add a sysctl handler to adjust it when the policy is reconfigured.

Benchmark with the same testcase in [1] shows 53% improvement on a 8C/16T
desktop, and 2097%(20X) on a 4S/72C/144T server.  We tested with test
platforms in 0day (server, desktop and laptop), and 80%+ platforms shows
improvements with that test.  And whether it shows improvements depends on
if the test mmap size is bigger than the batch number computed.

And if the lift is 16X, 1/3 of the platforms will show improvements,
though it should help the mmap/unmap usage generally, as Michal Hocko
mentioned:

: I believe that there are non-synthetic worklaods which would benefit from
: a larger batch.  E.g.  large in memory databases which do large mmaps
: during startups from multiple threads.

Qais Yousef 13685c4a08 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 1a00d99997 ("sched/uclamp: Set default clamps for RT tasks").

On battery powered devices, it is desired to control this default
(currently hardcoded) behavior at runtime to reduce energy consumed by
RT tasks.

For example, a mobile device manufacturer where big.LITTLE architecture
is dominant, the performance of the little cores varies across SoCs, and
on high end ones the big cores could be too power hungry.

Given the diversity of SoCs, the new knob allows manufactures to tune
the best performance/power for RT tasks for the particular hardware they
run on.

They could opt to further tune the value when the user selects
a different power saving mode or when the device is actively charging.

The runtime aspect of it further helps in creating a single kernel image
that can be run on multiple devices that require different tuning.

Keep in mind that a lot of RT tasks in the system are created by the
kernel. On Android for instance I can see over 50 RT tasks, only
a handful of which created by the Android framework.

To control the default behavior globally by system admins and device
integrator, introduce the new sysctl_sched_uclamp_util_min_rt_default
to change the default boost value of the RT tasks.

I anticipate this to be mostly in the form of modifying the init script
of a particular device.

To avoid polluting the fast path with unnecessary code, the approach
taken is to synchronously do the update by traversing all the existing
tasks in the system. This could race with a concurrent fork(), which is
dealt with by introducing sched_post_fork() function which will ensure
the racy fork will get the right update applied.

Tested on Juno-r2 in combination with the RT capacity awareness [1].
By default an RT task will go to the highest capacity CPU and run at the
maximum frequency, which is particularly energy inefficient on high end
mobile devices because the biggest core[s] are 'huge' and power hungry.

With this patch the RT task can be controlled to run anywhere by
default, and doesn't cause the frequency to be maximum all the time.
Yet any task that really needs to be boosted can easily escape this
default behavior by modifying its requested uclamp.min value
(p->uclamp_req[UCLAMP_MIN]) via sched_setattr() syscall.

being committed to the tainted_mask bitset.

Guilherme G. Piccoli 60c958d8df panic: add sysctl to dump all CPUs backtraces on oops event
Usually when the kernel reaches an oops condition, it's a point of no
return; in case not enough debug information is available in the kernel
splat, one of the last resorts would be to collect a kernel crash dump
and analyze it.  The problem with this approach is that in order to
collect the dump, a panic is required (to kexec-load the crash kernel).
When in an environment of multiple virtual machines, users may prefer to
try living with the oops, at least until being able to properly shutdown
their VMs / finish their important tasks.

This patch implements a way to collect a bit more debug details when an
oops event is reached, by printing all the CPUs backtraces through the
usage of NMIs (on architectures that support that).  The sysctl added
(and documented) here was called "oops_all_cpu_backtrace", and when set
will (as the name suggests) dump all CPUs backtraces.

Far from ideal, this may be the last option though for users that for
some reason cannot panic on oops.  Most of times oopses are clear enough
to indicate the kernel portion that must be investigated, but in virtual
environments it's possible to observe hypervisor/KVM issues that could
lead to oopses shown in other guests CPUs (like virtual APIC crashes).
This patch hence aims to help debug such complex issues without
resorting to kdump.

Guilherme G. Piccoli 0ec9dc9bcb kernel/hung_task.c: introduce sysctl to print all traces when a hung task is detected
Commit 401c636a0e ("kernel/hung_task.c: show all hung tasks before
panic") introduced a change in that we started to show all CPUs
backtraces when a hung task is detected _and_ the sysctl/kernel
parameter "hung_task_panic" is set.  The idea is good, because usually
when observing deadlocks (that may lead to hung tasks), the culprit is
another task holding a lock and not necessarily the task detected as
hung.

The problem with this approach is that dumping backtraces is a slightly
expensive task, specially printing that on console (and specially in
many CPU machines, as servers commonly found nowadays).  So, users that
plan to collect a kdump to investigate the hung tasks and narrow down
the deadlock definitely don't need the CPUs backtrace on dmesg/console,
which will delay the panic and pollute the log (crash tool would easily
grab all CPUs traces with 'bt -a' command).

Also, there's the reciprocal scenario: some users may be interested in
seeing the CPUs backtraces but not have the system panic when a hung
task is detected.  The current approach hence is almost as embedding a
policy in the kernel, by forcing the CPUs backtraces' dump (only) on
hung_task_panic.

This patch decouples the panic event on hung task from the CPUs
backtraces dump, by creating (and documenting) a new sysctl called
"hung_task_all_cpu_backtrace", analog to the approach taken on soft/hard
lockups, that have both a panic and an "all_cpu_backtrace" sysctl to
allow individual control.  The new mechanism for dumping the CPUs
backtraces on hung task detection respects "hung_task_warnings" by not
dumping the traces in case there's no warnings left.

Rafael Aquini db38d5c106 kernel: add panic_on_taint
Analogously to the introduction of panic_on_warn, this patch introduces
a kernel option named panic_on_taint in order to provide a simple and
generic way to stop execution and catch a coredump when the kernel gets
tainted by any given flag.

This is useful for debugging sessions as it avoids having to rebuild the
kernel to explicitly add calls to panic() into the code sites that
introduce the taint flags of interest.

For instance, if one is interested in proceeding with a post-mortem
analysis at the point a given code path is hitting a bad page (i.e.
unaccount_page_cache_page(), or slab_bug()), a coredump can be collected
by rebooting the kernel with 'panic_on_taint=0x20' amended to the
command line.

Another, perhaps less frequent, use for this option would be as a means
for assuring a security policy case where only a subset of taints, or no
single taint (in paranoid mode), is allowed for the running system.  The
optional switch 'nousertaint' is handy in this particular scenario, as
it will avoid userspace induced crashes by writes to sysctl interface
/proc/sys/kernel/tainted causing false positive hits for such policies.

Johannes Weiner c843966c55 mm: allow swappiness that prefers reclaiming anon over the file workingset
With the advent of fast random IO devices (SSDs, PMEM) and in-memory swap
devices such as zswap, it's possible for swap to be much faster than
filesystems, and for swapping to be preferable over thrashing filesystem
caches.

Allow setting swappiness - which defines the rough relative IO cost of
cache misses between page cache and swap-backed pages - to reflect such
situations by making the swap-preferred range configurable.

Song Liu d46edd671a bpf: Sharing bpf runtime stats with BPF_ENABLE_STATS
Currently, sysctl kernel.bpf_stats_enabled controls BPF runtime stats.
Typical userspace tools use kernel.bpf_stats_enabled as follows:

  1. Enable kernel.bpf_stats_enabled;
  2. Check program run_time_ns;
  3. Sleep for the monitoring period;
  4. Check program run_time_ns again, calculate the difference;
  5. Disable kernel.bpf_stats_enabled.

The problem with this approach is that only one userspace tool can toggle
this sysctl. If multiple tools toggle the sysctl at the same time, the
measurement may be inaccurate.

To fix this problem while keep backward compatibility, introduce a new
bpf command BPF_ENABLE_STATS. On success, this command enables stats and
returns a valid fd. BPF_ENABLE_STATS takes argument "type". Currently,
only one type, BPF_STATS_RUN_TIME, is supported. We can extend the
command to support other types of stats in the future.

With BPF_ENABLE_STATS, user space tool would have the following flow:

  1. Get a fd with BPF_ENABLE_STATS, and make sure it is valid;
  2. Check program run_time_ns;
  3. Sleep for the monitoring period;
  4. Check program run_time_ns again, calculate the difference;
  5. Close the fd.

Instead of having all the sysctl handlers deal with user pointers, which
is rather hairy in terms of the BPF interaction, copy the input to and
from  userspace in common code.  This also means that the strings are
always NUL-terminated by the common code, making the API a little bit
safer.

As most handler just pass through the data to one of the common handlers
a lot of the changes are mechnical.

Dmitry Safonov eaee41727e sysctl/sysrq: Remove __sysrq_enabled copy
Many embedded boards have a disconnected TTL level serial which can
generate some garbage that can lead to spurious false sysrq detects.

Currently, sysrq can be either completely disabled for serial console
or always disabled (with CONFIG_MAGIC_SYSRQ_SERIAL), since
commit 732dbf3a61 ("serial: do not accept sysrq characters via serial port")

At Arista, we have such boards that can generate BREAK and random
garbage. While disabling sysrq for serial console would solve
the problem with spurious false sysrq triggers, it's also desirable
to have a way to enable sysrq back.

Having the way to enable sysrq was beneficial to debug lockups with
a manual investigation in field and on the other side preventing false
sysrq detections.

As a preparation to add sysrq_toggle_support() call into uart,
remove a private copy of sysrq_enabled from sysctl - it should reflect
the actual status of sysrq.

Furthermore, the private copy isn't correct already in case
sysrq_always_enabled is true. So, remove __sysrq_enabled and use a
getter-helper sysrq_mask() to check sysrq_key_op enabled status.
