sched/balancing: Change 'enum cpu_idle_type' to have more natural definitions
The cpu_idle_type enum has the confusingly inverted property that 'not idle' is 1, and 'idle' is '0'. This resulted in a number of unnecessary complications in the code. Reverse the order, remove the CPU_NOT_IDLE type, and convert all code to a natural boolean form. It's much more readable: - enum cpu_idle_type idle = this_rq->idle_balance ? - CPU_IDLE : CPU_NOT_IDLE; - + enum cpu_idle_type idle = this_rq->idle_balance; -------------------------------- - if (env->idle == CPU_NOT_IDLE || !busiest->sum_nr_running) + if (!env->idle || !busiest->sum_nr_running) -------------------------------- And gets rid of the double negation in these usages: - if (env->idle != CPU_NOT_IDLE && env->src_rq->nr_running <= 1) + if (env->idle && env->src_rq->nr_running <= 1) Furthermore, this makes code much more obvious where there's differentiation between CPU_IDLE and CPU_NEWLY_IDLE.

sched/topology: Rename SD_SHARE_PKG_RESOURCES to SD_SHARE_LLC
SD_SHARE_PKG_RESOURCES is a bit of a misnomer: its naming suggests that it's sharing all 'package resources' - while in reality it's specifically for sharing the LLC only.

sched: Add a new function to compare if two cpus have the same capacity
The new helper function is needed to help blk-mq check if it needs to dispatch the softirq on another CPU to match the performance level the IO requester is running at.

mm: document memalloc_noreclaim_save() and memalloc_pin_save()
The memalloc_noreclaim_save() function currently has no documentation comment, so the implications of its usage are not obvious. Namely that it not only prevents entering reclaim (as the name suggests), but also allows using all memory reserves and thus should be only used in contexts that are allocating memory to free memory. This may lead to new improper usages being added. Thus add a documenting comment, based on the description of __GFP_MEMALLOC. While at it, also document memalloc_pin_save() so that all the memalloc_ scopes are documented. For those already documented, add missing Return: descriptions, and mark Context: description per kernel-docs style guide. In the comments describing the relevant PF_MEMALLOC flags, refer to their scope setting functions.

header cleanups for 6.8
The goal is to get sched.h down to a type only header, so the main thing happening in this patchset is splitting out various _types.h headers and dependency fixups, as well as moving some things out of sched.h to better locations. This is prep work for the memory allocation profiling patchset which adds new sched.h interdepencencies. Testing - it's been in -next, and fixes from pretty much all architectures have percolated in - nothing major. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAABCgAdFiEEKnAFLkS8Qha+jvQrE6szbY3KbnYFAmWfBwwACgkQE6szbY3K bnZPwBAAmuRojXaeWxi01IPIOehSGDe68vw44PR9glEMZvxdnZuPOdvE4/+245/L bRKU2WBCjBUokUbV9msIShwRkFTZAmEMPNfPAAsFMA+VXeDYHKB+ZRdwTggNAQ+I SG6fZgh5m0HsewCDxU8oqVHkjVq4fXn0cy+aL6xLEd9gu67GoBzX2pDieS2Kvy6j jnyoKTxFwb+LTQgph0P4EIpq5I2umAsdLwdSR8EJ+8e9NiNvMo1pI00Lx/ntAnFZ JftWUJcMy3TQ5u1GkyfQN9y/yThX1bZK5GvmHS9SJ2Dkacaus5d+xaKCHtRuFS1I 7C6b8PsNgRczUMumBXus44HdlNfNs1yU3lvVxFvBIPE1qC9pYRHrkWIXXIocXLLC oxTEJ6B2G3BQZVQgLIA4fOaxMVhmvKffi/aEZLi9vN9VVosd1a6XNKI6KbyRnXFp GSs9qDqszhn5I3GYNlDNQTc/8UsRlhPFgS6nS0By6QnvxtGi9QkU2tBRBsXvqwCy cLoCYIhc2tvugHvld70dz26umiJ4rnmxGlobStNoigDvIKAIUt1UmIdr1so8P8eH xehnL9ZcOX6xnANDL0AqMFFHV6I58CJynhFdUoXfVQf/DWLGX48mpi9LVNsYBzsI CAwVOAQ0UjGrpdWmJ9ueY/ABYqg9vRjzaDEXQ+MhAYO55CLaVsg= =3tyT -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'header_cleanup-2024-01-10' of https://evilpiepirate.org/git/bcachefs Pull header cleanups from Kent Overstreet: "The goal is to get sched.h down to a type only header, so the main thing happening in this patchset is splitting out various _types.h headers and dependency fixups, as well as moving some things out of sched.h to better locations.

cgroup: Changes for v6.8
- Yafang Shao added task_get_cgroup1() helper to enable a similar BPF helper so that BPF progs can be more useful on cgroup1 hierarchies. While cgroup1 is mostly in maintenance mode, this addition is very small while having an outsized usefulness for users who are still on cgroup1. Yafang also optimized root cgroup list access by making it RCU protected in the process. - Waiman Long optimized rstat operation leading to substantially lower and more consistent lock hold time while flushing the hierarchical statistics. As the lock can be acquired briefly in various hot paths, this reduction has cascading benefits. - Waiman also improved the quality of isolation for cpuset's isolated partitions. CPUs which are allocated to isolated partitions are now excluded from running unbound work items and cpu_is_isolated() test which is used by vmstat and memcg to reduce interference now includes cpuset isolated CPUs. While it isn't there yet, the hope is eventually reaching parity with the isolation level provided by the `isolcpus` boot param but in a dynamic manner. This involved a couple workqueue patches which were applied directly to cgroup/for-6.8 rather than ping-ponged through the wq tree. This was because the wq code change was small and the area is usually very static and unlikely to cause conflicts. However, luck had it that there was a wq bug fix in the area during the 6.7 cycle which caused a conflict. The conflict is contextual but can be a bit confusing to resolve, so there is one merge from wq/for-6.7-fixes. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iIQEABYKACwWIQTfIjM1kS57o3GsC/uxYfJx3gVYGQUCZYnuJg4cdGpAa2VybmVs Lm9yZwAKCRCxYfJx3gVYGQ5kAP9nMMWqi+R1HeG7+hWROTVjQZ0OM9KRcpZ1TmjF FNbkJgEAzt+sPnoWwYDTSI7pkNeZ/IM7x1qkkKGvENNtUXrz0Ac= =PyYN -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'cgroup-for-6.8' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo: - Yafang Shao added task_get_cgroup1() helper to enable a similar BPF helper so that BPF progs can be more useful on cgroup1 hierarchies.

Scheduler changes for v6.8:

sched/topology: Add a new arch_scale_freq_ref() method
Create a new method to get a unique and fixed max frequency. Currently cpuinfo.max_freq or the highest (or last) state of performance domain are used as the max frequency when computing the frequency for a level of utilization, but: - cpuinfo_max_freq can change at runtime. boost is one example of such change. - cpuinfo.max_freq and last item of the PD can be different leading to different results between cpufreq and energy model. We need to save the reference frequency that has been used when computing the CPUs capacity and use this fixed and coherent value to convert between frequency and CPU's capacity. In fact, we already save the frequency that has been used when computing the capacity of each CPU. We extend the precision to save kHz instead of MHz currently and we modify the type to be aligned with other variables used when converting frequency to capacity and the other way.

kernel/signal.c: simplify force_sig_info_to_task(), kill recalc_sigpending_and_wake()
The purpose of recalc_sigpending_and_wake() is not clear, it looks "obviously unneeded" because we are going to send the signal which can't be blocked or ignored. Add the comment to explain why we can't rely on send_signal_locked() and make this logic more simple/explicit. recalc_sigpending_and_wake() has no other users, it can die. In fact I think we don't even need signal_wake_up(), the target task must be either current or a TASK_TRACED child, otherwise the usage of siglock is not safe. But this needs another change.

cgroup/cpuset: Include isolated cpuset CPUs in cpu_is_isolated() check
Currently, the cpu_is_isolated() function checks only the statically isolated CPUs specified via the "isolcpus" and "nohz_full" kernel command line options. This function is used by vmstat and memcg to reduce interference with isolated CPUs by not doing stat flushing or scheduling works on those CPUs. Workloads running on isolated CPUs within isolated cpuset partitions should receive the same treatment to reduce unnecessary interference. This patch introduces a new cpuset_cpu_is_isolated() function to be called by cpu_is_isolated() so that the set of dynamically created cpuset isolated CPUs will be included in the check. Assuming that testing a bit in a cpumask is atomic, no synchronization primitive is currently used to synchronize access to the cpuset's isolated_cpus mask.

asm-generic updates for v6.7

The architecture specific system call tables are updated for the added map_shadow_stack() syscall and to remove references to the long-gone sys_lookup_dcookie() syscall. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAABCgAdFiEEiK/NIGsWEZVxh/FrYKtH/8kJUicFAmVC40IACgkQYKtH/8kJ Uidhmw/9EX+aWSXGoObJ3fngaNSMw+PmrEuP8qEKBHxfKHcCdX3hc451Oh4GlhaQ tru91pPwgNvN2/rfoKusxT+V4PemGIzfNni/04rp+P0kvmdw5otQ2yNhsQNsfVmq XGWvkxF4P2GO6bkjjfR/1dDq7GtlyXtwwPDKeLbYb6TnJOZjtx+EAN27kkfSn1Ms R4Sa3zJ+DfHUmHL5S9g+7UD/CZ5GfKNmIskI4Mz5GsfoUz/0iiU+Bge/9sdcdSJQ kmbLy5YnVzfooLZ3TQmBFsO3iAMWb0s/mDdtyhqhTVmTUshLolkPYyKnPFvdupyv shXcpEST2XJNeaDRnL2K4zSCdxdbnCZHDpjfl9wfioBg7I8NfhXKpf1jYZHH1de4 LXq8ndEFEOVQw/zSpYWfQq1sux8Jiqr+UK/ukbVeFWiGGIUs91gEWtPAf8T0AZo9 ujkJvaWGl98O1g5wmBu0/dAR6QcFJMDfVwbmlIFpU8O+MEaz6X8mM+O5/T0IyTcD eMbAUjj4uYcU7ihKzHEv/0SS9Of38kzff67CLN5k8wOP/9NlaGZ78o1bVle9b52A BdhrsAefFiWHp1jT6Y9Rg4HOO/TguQ9e6EWSKOYFulsiLH9LEFaB9RwZLeLytV0W vlAgY9rUW77g1OJcb7DoNv33nRFuxsKqsnz3DEIXtgozo9CzbYI= =H1vH -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'asm-generic-6.7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/asm-generic Pull ia64 removal and asm-generic updates from Arnd Bergmann: - The ia64 architecture gets its well-earned retirement as planned, now that there is one last (mostly) working release that will be maintained as an LTS kernel. - The architecture specific system call tables are updated for the added map_shadow_stack() syscall and to remove references to the long-gone sys_lookup_dcookie() syscall. * tag 'asm-generic-6.7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/asm-generic: hexagon: Remove unusable symbols from the ptrace.h uapi asm-generic: Fix spelling of architecture arch: Reserve map_shadow_stack() syscall number for all architectures syscalls: Cleanup references to sys_lookup_dcookie() Documentation: Drop or replace remaining mentions of IA64 lib/raid6: Drop IA64 support Documentation: Drop IA64 from feature descriptions kernel: Drop IA64 support from sig_fault handlers arch: Remove Itanium (IA-64) architecture |

mm: kmem: scoped objcg protection
Switch to a scope-based protection of the objcg pointer on slab/kmem allocation paths. Instead of using the get_() semantics in the pre-allocation hook and put the reference afterwards, let's rely on the fact that objcg is pinned by the scope. It's possible because: 1) if the objcg is received from the current task struct, the task is keeping a reference to the objcg. 2) if the objcg is received from an active memcg (remote charging), the memcg is pinned by the scope and has a reference to the corresponding objcg.

mm/ksm: support fork/exec for prctl
Patch series "mm/ksm: add fork-exec support for prctl", v4.
A process can enable KSM with the prctl system call. When the process is
forked the KSM flag is inherited by the child process. However if the
process is executing an exec system call directly after the fork, the KSM
setting is cleared. This patch series addresses this problem.
1) Change the mask in coredump.h for execing a new process
2) Add a new test case in ksm_functional_tests
This patch (of 2):
Today we have two ways to enable KSM:
1) madvise system call
This allows to enable KSM for a memory region for a long time.
2) prctl system call
This is a recent addition to enable KSM for the complete process.
In addition when a process is forked, the KSM setting is inherited.
This change only affects the second case.
One of the use cases for (2) was to support the ability to enable
KSM for cgroups. This allows systemd to enable KSM for the seed
process. By enabling it in the seed process all child processes inherit
the setting.
This works correctly when the process is forked. However it doesn't
support fork/exec workflow.
From the previous cover letter:
....
Use case 3:
With the madvise call sharing opportunities are only enabled for the
current process: it is a workload-local decision. A considerable number
of sharing opportunities may exist across multiple workloads or jobs
(if they are part of the same security domain). Only a higler level
entity like a job scheduler or container can know for certain if its
running one or more instances of a job. That job scheduler however
doesn't have the necessary internal workload knowledge to make targeted
madvise calls.
....
In addition it can also be a bit surprising that fork keeps the KSM
setting and fork/exec does not.

sched/numa: Complete scanning of inactive VMAs when there is no alternative
VMAs are skipped if there is no recent fault activity but this represents a chicken-and-egg problem as there may be no fault activity if the PTEs are never updated to trap NUMA hints. There is an indirect reliance on scanning to be forced early in the lifetime of a task but this may fail to detect changes in phase behaviour. Force inactive VMAs to be scanned when all other eligible VMAs have been updated within the same scan sequence. Test results in general look good with some changes in performance, both negative and positive, depending on whether the additional scanning and faulting was beneficial or not to the workload. The autonuma benchmark workload NUMA01_THREADLOCAL was picked for closer examination. The workload creates two processes with numerous threads and thread-local storage that is zero-filled in a loop. It exercises the corner case where unrelated threads may skip VMAs that are thread-local to another thread and still has some VMAs that inactive while the workload executes. The VMA skipping activity frequency with and without the patch: 6.6.0-rc2-sched-numabtrace-v1 ============================= 649 reason=scan_delay 9,094 reason=unsuitable 48,915 reason=shared_ro 143,919 reason=inaccessible 193,050 reason=pid_inactive 6.6.0-rc2-sched-numabselective-v1 ============================= 146 reason=seq_completed 622 reason=ignore_pid_inactive 624 reason=scan_delay 6,570 reason=unsuitable 16,101 reason=shared_ro 27,608 reason=inaccessible 41,939 reason=pid_inactive Note that with the patch applied, the PID activity is ignored (ignore_pid_inactive) to ensure a VMA with some activity is completely scanned. In addition, a small number of VMAs are scanned when no other eligible VMA is available during a single scan window (seq_completed). The number of times a VMA is skipped due to no PID activity from the scanning task (pid_inactive) drops dramatically. It is expected that this will increase the number of PTEs updated for NUMA hinting faults as well as hinting faults but these represent PTEs that would otherwise have been missed. The tradeoff is scan+fault overhead versus improving locality due to migration. On a 2-socket Cascade Lake test machine, the time to complete the workload is as follows; 6.6.0-rc2 6.6.0-rc2 sched-numabtrace-v1 sched-numabselective-v1 Min elsp-NUMA01_THREADLOCAL 174.22 ( 0.00%) 117.64 ( 32.48%) Amean elsp-NUMA01_THREADLOCAL 175.68 ( 0.00%) 123.34 * 29.79%* Stddev elsp-NUMA01_THREADLOCAL 1.20 ( 0.00%) 4.06 (-238.20%) CoeffVar elsp-NUMA01_THREADLOCAL 0.68 ( 0.00%) 3.29 (-381.70%) Max elsp-NUMA01_THREADLOCAL 177.18 ( 0.00%) 128.03 ( 27.74%) The time to complete the workload is reduced by almost 30%: 6.6.0-rc2 6.6.0-rc2 sched-numabtrace-v1 sched-numabselective-v1 / Duration User 91201.80 63506.64 Duration System 2015.53 1819.78 Duration Elapsed 1234.77 868.37 In this specific case, system CPU time was not increased but it's not universally true. From vmstat, the NUMA scanning and fault activity is as follows; 6.6.0-rc2 6.6.0-rc2 sched-numabtrace-v1 sched-numabselective-v1 Ops NUMA base-page range updates 64272.00 26374386.00 Ops NUMA PTE updates 36624.00 55538.00 Ops NUMA PMD updates 54.00 51404.00 Ops NUMA hint faults 15504.00 75786.00 Ops NUMA hint local faults % 14860.00 56763.00 Ops NUMA hint local percent 95.85 74.90 Ops NUMA pages migrated 1629.00 6469222.00 Both the number of PTE updates and hint faults is dramatically increased. While this is superficially unfortunate, it represents ranges that were simply skipped without the patch. As a result of the scanning and hinting faults, many more pages were also migrated but as the time to completion is reduced, the overhead is offset by the gain.

sched/numa: Complete scanning of partial VMAs regardless of PID activity
NUMA Balancing skips VMAs when the current task has not trapped a NUMA fault within the VMA. If the VMA is skipped then mm->numa_scan_offset advances and a task that is trapping faults within the VMA may never fully update PTEs within the VMA. Force tasks to update PTEs for partially scanned PTEs. The VMA will be tagged for NUMA hints by some task but this removes some of the benefit of tracking PID activity within a VMA. A follow-on patch will mitigate this problem. The test cases and machines evaluated did not trigger the corner case so the performance results are neutral with only small changes within the noise from normal test-to-test variance. However, the next patch makes the corner case easier to trigger.

mm: add a NO_INHERIT flag to the PR_SET_MDWE prctl
This extends the current PR_SET_MDWE prctl arg with a bit to indicate that the process doesn't want MDWE protection to propagate to children. To implement this no-inherit mode, the tag in current->mm->flags must be absent from MMF_INIT_MASK. This means that the encoding for "MDWE but without inherit" is different in the prctl than in the mm flags. This leads to a bit of bit-mangling in the prctl implementation.

sched: Assert for_each_thread() is properly locked
list_for_each_entry_rcu() takes an optional fourth argument which allows RCU to assert that the correct lock is held. Several callers of for_each_thread() rely on their caller to be holding the appropriate lock, so this is a useful assertion to include.

document while_each_thread(), change first_tid() to use for_each_thread()
Add the comment to explain that while_each_thread(g,t) is not rcu-safe unless g is stable (e.g. current). Even if g is a group leader and thus can't exit before t, t or another sub-thread can exec and remove g from the thread_group list. The only lockless user of while_each_thread() is first_tid() and it is fine in that it can't loop forever, yet for_each_thread() looks better and I am going to change while_each_thread/next_thread.

kill do_each_thread()
Eric has pointed out that we still have 3 users of do_each_thread(). Change them to use for_each_process_thread() and kill this helper. There is a subtle change, after do_each_thread/while_each_thread g == t == &init_task, while after for_each_process_thread() they both point to nowhere, but this doesn't matter. > Why is for_each_process_thread() better than do_each_thread()? Say, for_each_process_thread() is rcu safe, do_each_thread() is not. And certainly for_each_process_thread(p, t) { do_something(p, t); } looks better than do_each_thread(p, t) { do_something(p, t); } while_each_thread(p, t); And again, there are only 3 users of this awkward helper left. It should have been killed years ago and in fact I thought it had already been killed. It uses while_each_thread() which needs some changes.

sched: avoid false lockdep splat in put_task_struct()
In put_task_struct(), a spin_lock is indirectly acquired under the kernel stock. When running the kernel in real-time (RT) configuration, the operation is dispatched to a preemptible context call to ensure guaranteed preemption. However, if PROVE_RAW_LOCK_NESTING is enabled and __put_task_struct() is called while holding a raw_spinlock, lockdep incorrectly reports an "Invalid lock context" in the stock kernel. This false splat occurs because lockdep is unaware of the different route taken under RT. To address this issue, override the inner wait type to prevent the false lockdep splat.

kernel/fork: beware of __put_task_struct() calling context
Under PREEMPT_RT, __put_task_struct() indirectly acquires sleeping locks. Therefore, it can't be called from an non-preemptible context. One practical example is splat inside inactive_task_timer(), which is called in a interrupt context: CPU: 1 PID: 2848 Comm: life Kdump: loaded Tainted: G W --------- Hardware name: HP ProLiant DL388p Gen8, BIOS P70 07/15/2012 Call Trace: dump_stack_lvl+0x57/0x7d mark_lock_irq.cold+0x33/0xba mark_lock+0x1e7/0x400 mark_usage+0x11d/0x140 __lock_acquire+0x30d/0x930 lock_acquire.part.0+0x9c/0x210 rt_spin_lock+0x27/0xe0 refill_obj_stock+0x3d/0x3a0 kmem_cache_free+0x357/0x560 inactive_task_timer+0x1ad/0x340 __run_hrtimer+0x8a/0x1a0 __hrtimer_run_queues+0x91/0x130 hrtimer_interrupt+0x10f/0x220 __sysvec_apic_timer_interrupt+0x7b/0xd0 sysvec_apic_timer_interrupt+0x4f/0xd0 asm_sysvec_apic_timer_interrupt+0x12/0x20 RIP: 0033:0x7fff196bf6f5 Instead of calling __put_task_struct() directly, we defer it using call_rcu(). A more natural approach would use a workqueue, but since in PREEMPT_RT, we can't allocate dynamic memory from atomic context, the code would become more complex because we would need to put the work_struct instance in the task_struct and initialize it when we allocate a new task_struct. The issue is reproducible with stress-ng: while true; do stress-ng --sched deadline --sched-period 1000000000 \ --sched-runtime 800000000 --sched-deadline \ 1000000000 --mmapfork 23 -t 20 done Reported-by: Hu Chunyu <chuhu@redhat.com> Suggested-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Suggested-by: Valentin Schneider <vschneid@redhat.com> Suggested-by: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Wander Lairson Costa <wander@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20230614122323.37957-2-wander@redhat.com |

Scheduler changes for v6.5:
- Scheduler SMP load-balancer improvements: - Avoid unnecessary migrations within SMT domains on hybrid systems. Problem: On hybrid CPU systems, (processors with a mixture of higher-frequency SMT cores and lower-frequency non-SMT cores), under the old code lower-priority CPUs pulled tasks from the higher-priority cores if more than one SMT sibling was busy - resulting in many unnecessary task migrations. Solution: The new code improves the load balancer to recognize SMT cores with more than one busy sibling and allows lower-priority CPUs to pull tasks, which avoids superfluous migrations and lets lower-priority cores inspect all SMT siblings for the busiest queue. - Implement the 'runnable boosting' feature in the EAS balancer: consider CPU contention in frequency, EAS max util & load-balance busiest CPU selection. This improves CPU utilization for certain workloads, while leaves other key workloads unchanged. - Scheduler infrastructure improvements: - Rewrite the scheduler topology setup code by consolidating it into the build_sched_topology() helper function and building it dynamically on the fly. - Resolve the local_clock() vs. noinstr complications by rewriting the code: provide separate sched_clock_noinstr() and local_clock_noinstr() functions to be used in instrumentation code, and make sure it is all instrumentation-safe. - Fixes: - Fix a kthread_park() race with wait_woken() - Fix misc wait_task_inactive() bugs unearthed by the -rt merge: - Fix UP PREEMPT bug by unifying the SMP and UP implementations. - Fix task_struct::saved_state handling. - Fix various rq clock update bugs, unearthed by turning on the rq clock debugging code. - Fix the PSI WINDOW_MIN_US trigger limit, which was easy to trigger by creating enough cgroups, by removing the warnign and restricting window size triggers to PSI file write-permission or CAP_SYS_RESOURCE. - Propagate SMT flags in the topology when removing degenerate domain - Fix grub_reclaim() calculation bug in the deadline scheduler code - Avoid resetting the min update period when it is unnecessary, in psi_trigger_destroy(). - Don't balance a task to its current running CPU in load_balance(), which was possible on certain NUMA topologies with overlapping groups. - Fix the sched-debug printing of rq->nr_uninterruptible - Cleanups: - Address various -Wmissing-prototype warnings, as a preparation to (maybe) enable this warning in the future. - Remove unused code - Mark more functions __init - Fix shadow-variable warnings Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQJFBAABCgAvFiEEBpT5eoXrXCwVQwEKEnMQ0APhK1gFAmSatWQRHG1pbmdvQGtl cm5lbC5vcmcACgkQEnMQ0APhK1j62xAAuGOx1LcDfRGC6WGQzp1zOdlsVQtnDvlS qL58zYSHgizprpVQ3j87SBaG4CHCdvd2Bo36yW0lNZS4nd203qdq7fkrMb3hPP/w egUQUzMegf5fF6BWldKeMjuHSt+twFQz/ZAKK8iSbAir6CHNAqbNst1oL0i/+Tyk o33hBs1hT5tnbFb1NSVZkX4k+qT3LzTW4K2QgjjGtkScr6yHh2BdEVefyigWOjdo 9s02d00ll9a2r+F5txlN7Dnw6TN7rmTXGMOJU5bZvBE90/anNiAorMXHJdEKCyUR u9+JtBdJWiCplGa/tSRcxT16ZW1VdtTnd9q66TDhXREd2UNDFqBEyg5Wl77K4Tlf vKFajmj/to+cTbuv6m6TVR+zyXpdEpdL6F04P44U3qiJvDobBqeDNKHHIqpmbHXl AXUXcPWTVAzXX1Ce5M+BeAgTBQ1T7C5tELILrTNQHJvO1s9VVBRFZ/l65Ps4vu7T wIZ781IFuopk0zWqHovNvgKrJ7oFmOQQZFttQEe8n6nafkjI7u+IZ8FayiGaUMRr 4GawFGUCEdYh8z9qyslGKe8Q/Rphfk6hxMFRYUJpDmubQ0PkMeDjDGq77jDGl1PF VqwSDEyOaBJs7Gqf/mem00JtzBmXhkhm1SEjggHMI2IQbr/eeBXoLQOn3CDapO/N PiDbtX760ic= =EWQA -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'sched-core-2023-06-27' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar: "Scheduler SMP load-balancer improvements: - Avoid unnecessary migrations within SMT domains on hybrid systems.

posix-timers: Ensure timer ID search-loop limit is valid
posix_timer_add() tries to allocate a posix timer ID by starting from the cached ID which was stored by the last successful allocation. This is done in a loop searching the ID space for a free slot one by one. The loop has to terminate when the search wrapped around to the starting point. But that's racy vs. establishing the starting point. That is read out lockless, which leads to the following problem: CPU0 CPU1 posix_timer_add() start = sig->posix_timer_id; lock(hash_lock); ... posix_timer_add() if (++sig->posix_timer_id < 0) start = sig->posix_timer_id; sig->posix_timer_id = 0; So CPU1 can observe a negative start value, i.e. -1, and the loop break never happens because the condition can never be true: if (sig->posix_timer_id == start) break; While this is unlikely to ever turn into an endless loop as the ID space is huge (INT_MAX), the racy read of the start value caught the attention of KCSAN and Dmitry unearthed that incorrectness. Rewrite it so that all id operations are under the hash lock.

sched/clock: Provide local_clock_noinstr()
Now that all ARCH_WANTS_NO_INSTR architectures (arm64, loongarch, s390, x86) provide sched_clock_noinstr(), use this to provide local_clock_noinstr(). This local_clock_noinstr() will be safe to use from noinstr code with the assumption that any such noinstr code is non-preemptible (it had better be, entry code will have IRQs disabled while __cpuidle must have preemption disabled). Specifically, preempt_enable_notrace(), a common part of many a sched_clock() implementation calls out to schedule() -- even though, per the above, it will never trigger -- which frustrates noinstr validation. vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: local_clock+0xb5: call to preempt_schedule_notrace_thunk() leaves .noinstr.text section Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Tested-by: Michael Kelley <mikelley@microsoft.com> # Hyper-V Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20230519102715.978624636@infradead.org |

fork, vhost: Use CLONE_THREAD to fix freezer/ps regression
When switching from kthreads to vhost_tasks two bugs were added:
1. The vhost worker tasks's now show up as processes so scripts doing
ps or ps a would not incorrectly detect the vhost task as another
process. 2. kthreads disabled freeze by setting PF_NOFREEZE, but
vhost tasks's didn't disable or add support for them.
To fix both bugs, this switches the vhost task to be thread in the
process that does the VHOST_SET_OWNER ioctl, and has vhost_worker call
get_signal to support SIGKILL/SIGSTOP and freeze signals. Note that
SIGKILL/STOP support is required because CLONE_THREAD requires
CLONE_SIGHAND which requires those 2 signals to be supported.
This is a modified version of the patch written by Mike Christie
<michael.christie@oracle.com> which was a modified version of patch
originally written by Linus.
Much of what depended upon PF_IO_WORKER now depends on PF_USER_WORKER.
Including ignoring signals, setting up the register state, and having
get_signal return instead of calling do_group_exit.
Tidied up the vhost_task abstraction so that the definition of
vhost_task only needs to be visible inside of vhost_task.c. Making
it easier to review the code and tell what needs to be done where.
As part of this the main loop has been moved from vhost_worker into
vhost_task_fn. vhost_worker now returns true if work was done.
The main loop has been updated to call get_signal which handles
SIGSTOP, freezing, and collects the message that tells the thread to
exit as part of process exit. This collection clears
__fatal_signal_pending. This collection is not guaranteed to
clear signal_pending() so clear that explicitly so the schedule()
sleeps.
For now the vhost thread continues to exist and run work until the
last file descriptor is closed and the release function is called as
part of freeing struct file. To avoid hangs in the coredump
rendezvous and when killing threads in a multi-threaded exec. The
coredump code and de_thread have been modified to ignore vhost threads.
Remvoing the special case for exec appears to require teaching
vhost_dev_flush how to directly complete transactions in case
the vhost thread is no longer running.
Removing the special case for coredump rendezvous requires either the
above fix needed for exec or moving the coredump rendezvous into
get_signal.

sched/topology: Remove SHARED_CHILD from ASYM_PACKING
Only x86 and Power7 use ASYM_PACKING. They use it differently. Power7 has cores of equal priority, but the SMT siblings of a core have different priorities. Parent scheduling domains do not need (nor have) the ASYM_PACKING flag. SHARED_CHILD is not needed. Using SHARED_PARENT would cause the topology debug code to complain. X86 has cores of different priority, but all the SMT siblings of the core have equal priority. It needs ASYM_PACKING at the MC level, but not at the SMT level (it also needs it at upper levels if they have scheduling groups of different priority). Removing ASYM_PACKING from the SMT domain causes the topology debug code to complain. Remove SHARED_CHILD for now. We still need a topology check that satisfies both architectures.

mm: add new api to enable ksm per process
Patch series "mm: process/cgroup ksm support", v9. So far KSM can only be enabled by calling madvise for memory regions. To be able to use KSM for more workloads, KSM needs to have the ability to be enabled / disabled at the process / cgroup level. Use case 1: The madvise call is not available in the programming language. An example for this are programs with forked workloads using a garbage collected language without pointers. In such a language madvise cannot be made available. In addition the addresses of objects get moved around as they are garbage collected. KSM sharing needs to be enabled "from the outside" for these type of workloads. Use case 2: The same interpreter can also be used for workloads where KSM brings no benefit or even has overhead. We'd like to be able to enable KSM on a workload by workload basis. Use case 3: With the madvise call sharing opportunities are only enabled for the current process: it is a workload-local decision. A considerable number of sharing opportunities may exist across multiple workloads or jobs (if they are part of the same security domain). Only a higler level entity like a job scheduler or container can know for certain if its running one or more instances of a job. That job scheduler however doesn't have the necessary internal workload knowledge to make targeted madvise calls. Security concerns: In previous discussions security concerns have been brought up. The problem is that an individual workload does not have the knowledge about what else is running on a machine. Therefore it has to be very conservative in what memory areas can be shared or not. However, if the system is dedicated to running multiple jobs within the same security domain, its the job scheduler that has the knowledge that sharing can be safely enabled and is even desirable. Performance: Experiments with using UKSM have shown a capacity increase of around 20%. Here are the metrics from an instagram workload (taken from a machine with 64GB main memory): full_scans: 445 general_profit: 20158298048 max_page_sharing: 256 merge_across_nodes: 1 pages_shared: 129547 pages_sharing: 5119146 pages_to_scan: 4000 pages_unshared: 1760924 pages_volatile: 10761341 run: 1 sleep_millisecs: 20 stable_node_chains: 167 stable_node_chains_prune_millisecs: 2000 stable_node_dups: 2751 use_zero_pages: 0 zero_pages_sharing: 0 After the service is running for 30 minutes to an hour, 4 to 5 million shared pages are common for this workload when using KSM. Detailed changes: 1. New options for prctl system command This patch series adds two new options to the prctl system call. The first one allows to enable KSM at the process level and the second one to query the setting. The setting will be inherited by child processes. With the above setting, KSM can be enabled for the seed process of a cgroup and all processes in the cgroup will inherit the setting. 2. Changes to KSM processing When KSM is enabled at the process level, the KSM code will iterate over all the VMA's and enable KSM for the eligible VMA's. When forking a process that has KSM enabled, the setting will be inherited by the new child process. 3. Add general_profit metric The general_profit metric of KSM is specified in the documentation, but not calculated. This adds the general profit metric to /sys/kernel/debug/mm/ksm. 4. Add more metrics to ksm_stat This adds the process profit metric to /proc/<pid>/ksm_stat. 5. Add more tests to ksm_tests and ksm_functional_tests This adds an option to specify the merge type to the ksm_tests. This allows to test madvise and prctl KSM. It also adds a two new tests to ksm_functional_tests: one to test the new prctl options and the other one is a fork test to verify that the KSM process setting is inherited by client processes. This patch (of 3): So far KSM can only be enabled by calling madvise for memory regions. To be able to use KSM for more workloads, KSM needs to have the ability to be enabled / disabled at the process / cgroup level. 1. New options for prctl system command This patch series adds two new options to the prctl system call. The first one allows to enable KSM at the process level and the second one to query the setting. The setting will be inherited by child processes. With the above setting, KSM can be enabled for the seed process of a cgroup and all processes in the cgroup will inherit the setting. 2. Changes to KSM processing When KSM is enabled at the process level, the KSM code will iterate over all the VMA's and enable KSM for the eligible VMA's. When forking a process that has KSM enabled, the setting will be inherited by the new child process. 1) Introduce new MMF_VM_MERGE_ANY flag This introduces the new flag MMF_VM_MERGE_ANY flag. When this flag is set, kernel samepage merging (ksm) gets enabled for all vma's of a process. 2) Setting VM_MERGEABLE on VMA creation When a VMA is created, if the MMF_VM_MERGE_ANY flag is set, the VM_MERGEABLE flag will be set for this VMA. 3) support disabling of ksm for a process This adds the ability to disable ksm for a process if ksm has been enabled for the process with prctl. 4) add new prctl option to get and set ksm for a process This adds two new options to the prctl system call - enable ksm for all vmas of a process (if the vmas support it). - query if ksm has been enabled for a process. 3. Disabling MMF_VM_MERGE_ANY for storage keys in s390 In the s390 architecture when storage keys are used, the MMF_VM_MERGE_ANY will be disabled.

sched: Fix performance regression introduced by mm_cid
Introduce per-mm/cpu current concurrency id (mm_cid) to fix a PostgreSQL
sysbench regression reported by Aaron Lu.
Keep track of the currently allocated mm_cid for each mm/cpu rather than
freeing them immediately on context switch. This eliminates most atomic
operations when context switching back and forth between threads
belonging to different memory spaces in multi-threaded scenarios (many
processes, each with many threads). The per-mm/per-cpu mm_cid values are
serialized by their respective runqueue locks.
Thread migration is handled by introducing invocation to
sched_mm_cid_migrate_to() (with destination runqueue lock held) in
activate_task() for migrating tasks. If the destination cpu's mm_cid is
unset, and if the source runqueue is not actively using its mm_cid, then
the source cpu's mm_cid is moved to the destination cpu on migration.
Introduce a task-work executed periodically, similarly to NUMA work,
which delays reclaim of cid values when they are unused for a period of
time.
Keep track of the allocation time for each per-cpu cid, and let the task
work clear them when they are observed to be older than
SCHED_MM_CID_PERIOD_NS and unused. This task work also clears all
mm_cids which are greater or equal to the Hamming weight of the mm
cidmask to keep concurrency ids compact.
Because we want to ensure the mm_cid converges towards the smaller
values as migrations happen, the prior optimization that was done when
context switching between threads belonging to the same mm is removed,
because it could delay the lazy release of the destination runqueue
mm_cid after it has been replaced by a migration. Removing this prior
optimization is not an issue performance-wise because the introduced
per-mm/per-cpu mm_cid tracking also covers this more specific case.

sched/isolation: add cpu_is_isolated() API
Patch series "memcg, cpuisol: do not interfere pcp cache charges draining with cpuisol workloads". Leonardo has reported [1] that pcp memcg charge draining can interfere with cpu isolated workloads. The said draining is done from a WQ context with a pcp worker scheduled on each CPU which holds any cached charges for a specific memcg hierarchy. Operation is not really a common operation [2]. It can be triggered from the userspace though so some care is definitely due. Leonardo has tried to address the issue by allowing remote charge draining [3]. This approach requires an additional locking to synchronize pcp caches sync from a remote cpu from local pcp consumers. Even though the proposed lock was per-cpu there is still potential for contention and less predictable behavior. This patchset addresses the issue from a different angle. Rather than dealing with a potential synchronization, cpus which are isolated are simply never scheduled to be drained. This means that a small amount of charges could be laying around and waiting for a later use or they are flushed when a different memcg is charged from the same cpu. More details are in patch 2. The first patch from Frederic is implementing an abstraction to tell whether a specific cpu has been isolated and therefore require a special treatment. This patch (of 2): Provide this new API to check if a CPU has been isolated either through isolcpus= or nohz_full= kernel parameter. It aims at avoiding kernel load deemed to be safely spared on CPUs running sensitive workload that can't bear any disturbance, such as pcp cache draining.

vhost_task: Allow vhost layer to use copy_process
Qemu will create vhost devices in the kernel which perform network, SCSI, etc IO and management operations from worker threads created by the kthread API. Because the kthread API does a copy_process on the kthreadd thread, the vhost layer has to use kthread_use_mm to access the Qemu thread's memory and cgroup_attach_task_all to add itself to the Qemu thread's cgroups, and it bypasses the RLIMIT_NPROC limit which can result in VMs creating more threads than the admin expected. This patch adds a new struct vhost_task which can be used instead of kthreads. They allow the vhost layer to use copy_process and inherit the userspace process's mm and cgroups, the task is accounted for under the userspace's nproc count and can be seen in its process tree, and other features like namespaces work and are inherited by default.

fork: add kernel_clone_args flag to not dup/clone files
Each vhost device gets a thread that is used to perform IO and management operations. Instead of a thread that is accessing a device, the thread is part of the device, so when it creates a thread using a helper based on copy_process we can't dup or clone the parent's files/FDS because it would do an extra increment on ourself. Later, when we do: Qemu process exits: do_exit -> exit_files -> put_files_struct -> close_files we would leak the device's resources because of that extra refcount on the fd or file_struct. This patch adds a no_files option so these worker threads can prevent taking an extra refcount on themselves.

mm: implement memory-deny-write-execute as a prctl
Patch series "mm: In-kernel support for memory-deny-write-execute (MDWE)", v2. The background to this is that systemd has a configuration option called MemoryDenyWriteExecute [2], implemented as a SECCOMP BPF filter. Its aim is to prevent a user task from inadvertently creating an executable mapping that is (or was) writeable. Since such BPF filter is stateless, it cannot detect mappings that were previously writeable but subsequently changed to read-only. Therefore the filter simply rejects any mprotect(PROT_EXEC). The side-effect is that on arm64 with BTI support (Branch Target Identification), the dynamic loader cannot change an ELF section from PROT_EXEC to PROT_EXEC|PROT_BTI using mprotect(). For libraries, it can resort to unmapping and re-mapping but for the main executable it does not have a file descriptor. The original bug report in the Red Hat bugzilla - [3] - and subsequent glibc workaround for libraries - [4]. This series adds in-kernel support for this feature as a prctl PR_SET_MDWE, that is inherited on fork(). The prctl denies PROT_WRITE | PROT_EXEC mappings. Like the systemd BPF filter it also denies adding PROT_EXEC to mappings. However unlike the BPF filter it only denies it if the mapping didn't previous have PROT_EXEC. This allows to PROT_EXEC -> PROT_EXEC | PROT_BTI with mprotect(), which is a problem with the BPF filter. This patch (of 2): The aim of such policy is to prevent a user task from creating an executable mapping that is also writeable. An example of mmap() returning -EACCESS if the policy is enabled: mmap(0, size, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE | PROT_EXEC, flags, 0, 0); Similarly, mprotect() would return -EACCESS below: addr = mmap(0, size, PROT_READ | PROT_EXEC, flags, 0, 0); mprotect(addr, size, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE | PROT_EXEC); The BPF filter that systemd MDWE uses is stateless, and disallows mprotect() with PROT_EXEC completely. This new prctl allows PROT_EXEC to be enabled if it was already PROT_EXEC, which allows the following case: addr = mmap(0, size, PROT_READ | PROT_EXEC, flags, 0, 0); mprotect(addr, size, PROT_READ | PROT_EXEC | PROT_BTI); where PROT_BTI enables branch tracking identification on arm64.

iommufd for 6.2
iommufd is the user API to control the IOMMU subsystem as it relates to managing IO page tables that point at user space memory. It takes over from drivers/vfio/vfio_iommu_type1.c (aka the VFIO container) which is the VFIO specific interface for a similar idea. We see a broad need for extended features, some being highly IOMMU device specific: - Binding iommu_domain's to PASID/SSID - Userspace IO page tables, for ARM, x86 and S390 - Kernel bypassed invalidation of user page tables - Re-use of the KVM page table in the IOMMU - Dirty page tracking in the IOMMU - Runtime Increase/Decrease of IOPTE size - PRI support with faults resolved in userspace Many of these HW features exist to support VM use cases - for instance the combination of PASID, PRI and Userspace IO Page Tables allows an implementation of DMA Shared Virtual Addressing (vSVA) within a guest. Dirty tracking enables VM live migration with SRIOV devices and PASID support allow creating "scalable IOV" devices, among other things. As these features are fundamental to a VM platform they need to be uniformly exposed to all the driver families that do DMA into VMs, which is currently VFIO and VDPA. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iHUEABYIAB0WIQRRRCHOFoQz/8F5bUaFwuHvBreFYQUCY5ct7wAKCRCFwuHvBreF YZZ5AQDciXfcgXLt0UBEmWupNb0f/asT6tk717pdsKm8kAZMNAEAsIyLiKT5HqGl s7fAu+CQ1pr9+9NKGevD+frw8Solsw4= =jJkd -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'for-linus-iommufd' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jgg/iommufd Pull iommufd implementation from Jason Gunthorpe: "iommufd is the user API to control the IOMMU subsystem as it relates to managing IO page tables that point at user space memory.

kernel/user: Allow user_struct::locked_vm to be usable for iommufd
Following the pattern of io_uring, perf, skb, and bpf, iommfd will use user->locked_vm for accounting pinned pages. Ensure the value is included in the struct and export free_uid() as iommufd is modular. user->locked_vm is the good accounting to use for ulimit because it is per-user, and the security sandboxing of locked pages is not supposed to be per-process. Other places (vfio, vdpa and infiniband) have used mm->pinned_vm and/or mm->locked_vm for accounting pinned pages, but this is only per-process and inconsistent with the new FOLL_LONGTERM users in the kernel. Concurrent work is underway to try to put this in a cgroup, so everything can be consistent and the kernel can provide a FOLL_LONGTERM limit that actually provides security.

ptrace: Stop supporting SIGKILL for PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT
Recently I had a conversation where it was pointed out to me that SIGKILL sent to a tracee stropped in PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT is quite difficult for a tracer to handle. Keeping SIGKILL working after the process has been killed is pain from an implementation point of view.

memory tiering: rate limit NUMA migration throughput
In NUMA balancing memory tiering mode, if there are hot pages in slow memory node and cold pages in fast memory node, we need to promote/demote hot/cold pages between the fast and cold memory nodes. A choice is to promote/demote as fast as possible. But the CPU cycles and memory bandwidth consumed by the high promoting/demoting throughput will hurt the latency of some workload because of accessing inflating and slow memory bandwidth contention. A way to resolve this issue is to restrict the max promoting/demoting throughput. It will take longer to finish the promoting/demoting. But the workload latency will be better. This is implemented in this patch as the page promotion rate limit mechanism. The number of the candidate pages to be promoted to the fast memory node via NUMA balancing is counted, if the count exceeds the limit specified by the users, the NUMA balancing promotion will be stopped until the next second. A new sysctl knob kernel.numa_balancing_promote_rate_limit_MBps is added for the users to specify the limit.

This cycle's scheduler updates for v6.0 are:
Load-balancing improvements: ============================ - Improve NUMA balancing on AMD Zen systems for affine workloads. - Improve the handling of reduced-capacity CPUs in load-balancing. - Energy Model improvements: fix & refine all the energy fairness metrics (PELT), and remove the conservative threshold requiring 6% energy savings to migrate a task. Doing this improves power efficiency for most workloads, and also increases the reliability of energy-efficiency scheduling. - Optimize/tweak select_idle_cpu() to spend (much) less time searching for an idle CPU on overloaded systems. There's reports of several milliseconds spent there on large systems with large workloads ... [ Since the search logic changed, there might be behavioral side effects. ] - Improve NUMA imbalance behavior. On certain systems with spare capacity, initial placement of tasks is non-deterministic, and such an artificial placement imbalance can persist for a long time, hurting (and sometimes helping) performance. The fix is to make fork-time task placement consistent with runtime NUMA balancing placement. Note that some performance regressions were reported against this, caused by workloads that are not memory bandwith limited, which benefit from the artificial locality of the placement bug(s). Mel Gorman's conclusion, with which we concur, was that consistency is better than random workload benefits from non-deterministic bugs: "Given there is no crystal ball and it's a tradeoff, I think it's better to be consistent and use similar logic at both fork time and runtime even if it doesn't have universal benefit." - Improve core scheduling by fixing a bug in sched_core_update_cookie() that caused unnecessary forced idling. - Improve wakeup-balancing by allowing same-LLC wakeup of idle CPUs for newly woken tasks. - Fix a newidle balancing bug that introduced unnecessary wakeup latencies. ABI improvements/fixes: ======================= - Do not check capabilities and do not issue capability check denial messages when a scheduler syscall doesn't require privileges. (Such as increasing niceness.) - Add forced-idle accounting to cgroups too. - Fix/improve the RSEQ ABI to not just silently accept unknown flags. (No existing tooling is known to have learned to rely on the previous behavior.) - Depreciate the (unused) RSEQ_CS_FLAG_NO_RESTART_ON_* flags. Optimizations: ============== - Optimize & simplify leaf_cfs_rq_list() - Micro-optimize set_nr_{and_not,if}_polling() via try_cmpxchg(). Misc fixes & cleanups: ====================== - Fix the RSEQ self-tests on RISC-V and Glibc 2.35 systems. - Fix a full-NOHZ bug that can in some cases result in the tick not being re-enabled when the last SCHED_RT task is gone from a runqueue but there's still SCHED_OTHER tasks around. - Various PREEMPT_RT related fixes. - Misc cleanups & smaller fixes.

signal: Guarantee that SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT is set on process exit
Track how many threads have not started exiting and when the last thread starts exiting set SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT. This guarantees that SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT will get set when a process exits. In practice this achieves nothing as glibc's implementation of _exit calls sys_group_exit then sys_exit. While glibc's implemenation of pthread_exit calls exit (which cleansup and calls _exit) if it is the last thread and sys_exit if it is the last thread. This means the only way the kernel might observe a process that does not set call exit_group is if the language runtime does not use glibc. With more cleanups I hope to move the decrement of quick_threads earlier. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/87bkukd4tc.fsf_-_@email.froward.int.ebiederm.org Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

Here the kworker is waiting on msdos_sb_info::s_lock which is held by
tar which is in turn waiting for a buffer which is locked waiting to be
flushed, but this operation is plugged in the kworker.
The lock is a normal struct mutex, so tsk_is_pi_blocked() will always
return false on !RT and thus the behaviour changes for RT.
It seems that the intent here is to skip blk_flush_plug() in the case
where a non-preemptible lock (such as a spinlock) has been converted to
a rtmutex on RT, which is the case covered by the SM_RTLOCK_WAIT
schedule flag. But sched_submit_work() is only called from schedule()
which is never called in this scenario, so the check can simply be
deleted.
Looking at the history of the -rt patchset, in fact this change was
present from v5.9.1-rt20 until being dropped in v5.13-rt1 as it was part
of a larger patch [1] most of which was replaced by commit

sched/fair: Introduce SIS_UTIL to search idle CPU based on sum of util_avg
[Problem Statement]
select_idle_cpu() might spend too much time searching for an idle CPU,
when the system is overloaded.
The following histogram is the time spent in select_idle_cpu(),
when running 224 instances of netperf on a system with 112 CPUs
per LLC domain:

The time spent in select_idle_cpu() is visible to netperf and might have a negative
impact.
[Symptom analysis]
The patch [1] from Mel Gorman has been applied to track the efficiency
of select_idle_sibling. Copy the indicators here:
SIS Search Efficiency(se_eff%):
A ratio expressed as a percentage of runqueues scanned versus
idle CPUs found. A 100% efficiency indicates that the target,
prev or recent CPU of a task was idle at wakeup. The lower the
efficiency, the more runqueues were scanned before an idle CPU
was found.
SIS Domain Search Efficiency(dom_eff%):
Similar, except only for the slower SIS
patch.
SIS Fast Success Rate(fast_rate%):
Percentage of SIS that used target, prev or
recent CPUs.
SIS Success rate(success_rate%):
Percentage of scans that found an idle CPU.
The test is based on Aubrey's schedtests tool, including netperf, hackbench,
schbench and tbench.

According to the test above, if the system becomes busy, the
SIS Search Efficiency(se_eff%) drops significantly. Although some
benchmarks would finally find an idle CPU(success_rate% = 100%), it is
doubtful whether it is worth it to search the whole LLC domain.
[Proposal]
It would be ideal to have a crystal ball to answer this question:
How many CPUs must a wakeup path walk down, before it can find an idle
CPU? Many potential metrics could be used to predict the number.
One candidate is the sum of util_avg in this LLC domain. The benefit
of choosing util_avg is that it is a metric of accumulated historic
activity, which seems to be smoother than instantaneous metrics
(such as rq->nr_running). Besides, choosing the sum of util_avg
would help predict the load of the LLC domain more precisely, because
SIS_PROP uses one CPU's idle time to estimate the total LLC domain idle
time.
In summary, the lower the util_avg is, the more select_idle_cpu()
should scan for idle CPU, and vice versa. When the sum of util_avg
in this LLC domain hits 85% or above, the scan stops. The reason to
choose 85% as the threshold is that this is the imbalance_pct(117)
when a LLC sched group is overloaded.
Introduce the quadratic function:
y = SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE - p * x^2
and y'= y / SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE
x is the ratio of sum_util compared to the CPU capacity:
x = sum_util / (llc_weight * SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE)
y' is the ratio of CPUs to be scanned in the LLC domain,
and the number of CPUs to scan is calculated by:
nr_scan = llc_weight * y'
Choosing quadratic function is because:
[1] Compared to the linear function, it scans more aggressively when the
sum_util is low.
[2] Compared to the exponential function, it is easier to calculate.
[3] It seems that there is no accurate mapping between the sum of util_avg
and the number of CPUs to be scanned. Use heuristic scan for now.
For a platform with 112 CPUs per LLC, the number of CPUs to scan is:
sum_util% 0 5 15 25 35 45 55 65 75 85 86 ...
scan_nr 112 111 108 102 93 81 65 47 25 1 0 ...
For a platform with 16 CPUs per LLC, the number of CPUs to scan is:
sum_util% 0 5 15 25 35 45 55 65 75 85 86 ...
scan_nr 16 15 15 14 13 11 9 6 3 0 0 ...
Furthermore, to minimize the overhead of calculating the metrics in
select_idle_cpu(), borrow the statistics from periodic load balance.
As mentioned by Abel, on a platform with 112 CPUs per LLC, the
sum_util calculated by periodic load balance after 112 ms would
decay to about 0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 * 0.7 = 8.75%, thus bringing a delay
in reflecting the latest utilization. But it is a trade-off.
Checking the util_avg in newidle load balance would be more frequent,
but it brings overhead - multiple CPUs write/read the per-LLC shared
variable and introduces cache contention. Tim also mentioned that,
it is allowed to be non-optimal in terms of scheduling for the
short-term variations, but if there is a long-term trend in the load
behavior, the scheduler can adjust for that.
When SIS_UTIL is enabled, the select_idle_cpu() uses the nr_scan
calculated by SIS_UTIL instead of the one from SIS_PROP. As Peter and
Mel suggested, SIS_UTIL should be enabled by default.
This patch is based on the util_avg, which is very sensitive to the
CPU frequency invariance. There is an issue that, when the max frequency
has been clamp, the util_avg would decay insanely fast when
the CPU is idle. Commit

While looking at the ptrace problems with PREEMPT_RT and the problems
of Peter Zijlstra was encountering with ptrace in his freezer rewrite I identified some cleanups to ptrace_stop that make sense on their own and move make resolving the other problems much simpler. The biggest issue is the habbit of the ptrace code to change task->__state from the tracer to suppress TASK_WAKEKILL from waking up the tracee. No other code in the kernel does that and it is straight forward to update signal_wake_up and friends to make that unnecessary. Peter's task freezer sets frozen tasks to a new state TASK_FROZEN and then it stores them by calling "wake_up_state(t, TASK_FROZEN)" relying on the fact that all stopped states except the special stop states can tolerate spurious wake up and recover their state. The state of stopped and traced tasked is changed to be stored in task->jobctl as well as in task->__state. This makes it possible for the freezer to recover tasks in these special states, as well as serving as a general cleanup. With a little more work in that direction I believe TASK_STOPPED can learn to tolerate spurious wake ups and become an ordinary stop state. The TASK_TRACED state has to remain a special state as the registers for a process are only reliably available when the process is stopped in the scheduler. Fundamentally ptrace needs acess to the saved register values of a task. There are bunch of semi-random ptrace related cleanups that were found while looking at these issues. One cleanup that deserves to be called out is from commit |

sysctl changes for v5.19-rc1
For two kernel releases now kernel/sysctl.c has been being cleaned up slowly, since the tables were grossly long, sprinkled with tons of #ifdefs and all this caused merge conflicts with one susbystem or another. This tree was put together to help try to avoid conflicts with these cleanups going on different trees at time. So nothing exciting on this pull request, just cleanups. I actually had this sysctl-next tree up since v5.18 but I missed sending a pull request for it on time during the last merge window. And so these changes have been being soaking up on sysctl-next and so linux-next for a while. The last change was merged May 4th. Most of the compile issues were reported by 0day and fixed. To help avoid a conflict with bpf folks at Daniel Borkmann's request I merged bpf-next/pr/bpf-sysctl into sysctl-next to get the effor which moves the BPF sysctls from kernel/sysctl.c to BPF core.

Yang Shi has improved the behaviour of khugepaged collapsing of readonly
file-backed transparent hugepages. Johannes Weiner has arranged for zswap memory use to be tracked and managed on a per-cgroup basis. Munchun Song adds a /proc knob ("hugetlb_optimize_vmemmap") for runtime enablement of the recent huge page vmemmap optimization feature. Baolin Wang contributes a series to fix some issues around hugetlb pagetable invalidation. Zhenwei Pi has fixed some interactions between hwpoisoned pages and virtualization. Tong Tiangen has enabled the use of the presently x86-only page_table_check debugging feature on arm64 and riscv. David Vernet has done some fixup work on the memcg selftests. Peter Xu has taught userfaultfd to handle write protection faults against shmem- and hugetlbfs-backed files. More DAMON development from SeongJae Park - adding online tuning of the feature and support for monitoring of fixed virtual address ranges. Also easier discovery of which monitoring operations are available. Nadav Amit has done some optimization of TLB flushing during mprotect(). Neil Brown continues to labor away at improving our swap-over-NFS support. David Hildenbrand has some fixes to anon page COWing versus get_user_pages(). Peng Liu fixed some errors in the core hugetlb code. Joao Martins has reduced the amount of memory consumed by device-dax's compound devmaps. Some cleanups of the arch-specific pagemap code from Anshuman Khandual. Muchun Song has found and fixed some errors in the TLB flushing of transparent hugepages. Roman Gushchin has done more work on the memcg selftests. And, of course, many smaller fixes and cleanups.

Allow user-space to request these signals asynchronously (after they get unblocked) & also give the information to the signal handler when this happens: " To give user space the ability to clearly distinguish synchronous from asynchronous signals, introduce siginfo_t::si_perf_flags and TRAP_PERF_FLAG_ASYNC (opted for flags in case more binary information is required in future). The resolution to the problem is then to (a) no longer force the signal (avoiding the terminations), but (b) tell user space via si_perf_flags if the signal was synchronous or not, so that such signals can be handled differently (e.g. let user space decide to ignore or consider the data imprecise).

sched: coredump.h: clarify the use of MMF_VM_HUGEPAGE
Patch series "Make khugepaged collapse readonly FS THP more consistent", v4. The readonly FS THP relies on khugepaged to collapse THP for suitable vmas. But the behavior is inconsistent for "always" mode (https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/00f195d4-d039-3cf2-d3a1-a2c88de397a0@suse.cz/). The "always" mode means THP allocation should be tried all the time and khugepaged should try to collapse THP all the time. Of course the allocation and collapse may fail due to other factors and conditions. Currently file THP may not be collapsed by khugepaged even though all the conditions are met. That does break the semantics of "always" mode. So make sure readonly FS vmas are registered to khugepaged to fix the break. Register suitable vmas in common mmap path, that could cover both readonly FS vmas and shmem vmas, so remove the khugepaged calls in shmem.c. The patch 1-7 are minor bug fixes, clean up and preparation patches. Patch 8 is the real meat. Tested with khugepaged test in selftests and the testcase provided by Vlastimil Babka in https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/df3b5d1c-a36b-2c73-3e27-99e74983de3a@suse.cz/ by commenting out MADV_HUGEPAGE call. This patch (of 8): MMF_VM_HUGEPAGE is set as long as the mm is available for khugepaged by khugepaged_enter(), not only when VM_HUGEPAGE is set on vma. Correct the comment to avoid confusion.

Currently ptrace_stop() / do_signal_stop() rely on the special states TASK_TRACED and TASK_STOPPED resp. to keep unique state. That is, this state exists only in task->__state and nowhere else. There's two spots of bother with this: - PREEMPT_RT has task->saved_state which complicates matters, meaning task_is_{traced,stopped}() needs to check an additional variable. - An alternative freezer implementation that itself relies on a special TASK state would loose TASK_TRACED/TASK_STOPPED and will result in misbehaviour. As such, add additional state to task->jobctl to track this state outside of task->__state. NOTE: this doesn't actually fix anything yet, just adds extra state. --EWB * didn't add a unnecessary newline in signal.h * Update t->jobctl in signal_wake_up and ptrace_signal_wake_up instead of in signal_wake_up_state. This prevents the clearing of TASK_STOPPED and TASK_TRACED from getting lost. * Added warnings if JOBCTL_STOPPED or JOBCTL_TRACED are not cleared Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20220421150654.757693825@infradead.org Tested-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Reviewed-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20220505182645.497868-12-ebiederm@xmission.com Signed-off-by: Eric W.

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

fork: Generalize PF_IO_WORKER handling
Add fn and fn_arg members into struct kernel_clone_args and test for them in copy_thread (instead of testing for PF_KTHREAD | PF_IO_WORKER). This allows any task that wants to be a user space task that only runs in kernel mode to use this functionality. The code on x86 is an exception and still retains a PF_KTHREAD test because x86 unlikely everything else handles kthreads slightly differently than user space tasks that start with a function. The functions that created tasks that start with a function have been updated to set ".fn" and ".fn_arg" instead of ".stack" and ".stack_size". These functions are fork_idle(), create_io_thread(), kernel_thread(), and user_mode_thread(). Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20220506141512.516114-4-ebiederm@xmission.com Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

fork: Explicity test for idle tasks in copy_thread
The architectures ia64 and parisc have special handling for the idle thread in copy_process. Add a flag named idle to kernel_clone_args and use it to explicity test if an idle process is being created. Fullfill the expectations of the rest of the copy_thread implemetations and pass a function pointer in .stack from fork_idle(). This makes what is happening in copy_thread better defined, and is useful to make idle threads less special.

Unlike most architectures, powerpc can only define at runtime if it is going to use the generic arch_get_unmapped_area() or not. Today, powerpc has a copy of the generic arch_get_unmapped_area() because when selection HAVE_ARCH_UNMAPPED_AREA the generic arch_get_unmapped_area() is not available. Rename it generic_get_unmapped_area() and make it independent of HAVE_ARCH_UNMAPPED_AREA. Do the same for arch_get_unmapped_area_topdown() versus HAVE_ARCH_UNMAPPED_AREA_TOPDOWN.

task_work: allow TWA_SIGNAL without a rescheduling IPI
Some use cases don't always need an IPI when sending a TWA_SIGNAL notification. Add TWA_SIGNAL_NO_IPI, which is just like TWA_SIGNAL, except it doesn't send an IPI to the target task. It merely sets TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL and wakes up the task. This can be useful in avoiding a forceful transition to the kernel if the task is running in userspace. Depending on the task_work in question, it may be quite fine waiting for the next reschedule or kernel enter anyway, or the use case may even have other mechanisms for hinting to the task that a transition may be useful. This can drive more cooperative scheduling of task_work.

signal: Deliver SIGTRAP on perf event asynchronously if blocked
With SIGTRAP on perf events, we have encountered termination of
processes due to user space attempting to block delivery of SIGTRAP.
Consider this case:
<set up SIGTRAP on a perf event>
...
sigset_t s;
sigemptyset(&s);
sigaddset(&s, SIGTRAP | <and others>);
sigprocmask(SIG_BLOCK, &s, ...);
...
<perf event triggers>
When the perf event triggers, while SIGTRAP is blocked, force_sig_perf()
will force the signal, but revert back to the default handler, thus
terminating the task.
This makes sense for error conditions, but not so much for explicitly
requested monitoring. However, the expectation is still that signals
generated by perf events are synchronous, which will no longer be the
case if the signal is blocked and delivered later.
To give user space the ability to clearly distinguish synchronous from
asynchronous signals, introduce siginfo_t::si_perf_flags and
TRAP_PERF_FLAG_ASYNC (opted for flags in case more binary information is
required in future).
The resolution to the problem is then to (a) no longer force the signal
(avoiding the terminations), but (b) tell user space via si_perf_flags
if the signal was synchronous or not, so that such signals can be
handled differently (e.g. let user space decide to ignore or consider
the data imprecise).
The alternative of making the kernel ignore SIGTRAP on perf events if
the signal is blocked may work for some usecases, but likely causes
issues in others that then have to revert back to interception of
sigprocmask() (which we want to avoid). [ A concrete example: when using
breakpoint perf events to track data-flow, in a region of code where
signals are blocked, data-flow can no longer be tracked accurately.
When a relevant asynchronous signal is received after unblocking the
signal, the data-flow tracking logic needs to know its state is
imprecise. ]

ptrace: Cleanups for v5.18
This set of changes removes tracehook.h, moves modification of all of the ptrace fields inside of siglock to remove races, adds a missing permission check to ptrace.c The removal of tracehook.h is quite significant as it has been a major source of confusion in recent years. Much of that confusion was around task_work and TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL (which I have now decoupled making the semantics clearer). For people who don't know tracehook.h is a vestiage of an attempt to implement uprobes like functionality that was never fully merged, and was later superseeded by uprobes when uprobes was merged. For many years now we have been removing what tracehook functionaly a little bit at a time.

Add support for Intel CET-IBT, available since Tigerlake (11th gen), which is a
coarse grained, hardware based, forward edge Control-Flow-Integrity mechanism where any indirect CALL/JMP must target an ENDBR instruction or suffer #CP. Additionally, since Alderlake (12th gen)/Sapphire-Rapids, speculation is limited to 2 instructions (and typically fewer) on branch targets not starting with ENDBR.

NUMA balancing: optimize page placement for memory tiering system
With the advent of various new memory types, some machines will have multiple types of memory, e.g. DRAM and PMEM (persistent memory). The memory subsystem of these machines can be called memory tiering system, because the performance of the different types of memory are usually different. In such system, because of the memory accessing pattern changing etc, some pages in the slow memory may become hot globally. So in this patch, the NUMA balancing mechanism is enhanced to optimize the page placement among the different memory types according to hot/cold dynamically. In a typical memory tiering system, there are CPUs, fast memory and slow memory in each physical NUMA node. The CPUs and the fast memory will be put in one logical node (called fast memory node), while the slow memory will be put in another (faked) logical node (called slow memory node). That is, the fast memory is regarded as local while the slow memory is regarded as remote. So it's possible for the recently accessed pages in the slow memory node to be promoted to the fast memory node via the existing NUMA balancing mechanism. The original NUMA balancing mechanism will stop to migrate pages if the free memory of the target node becomes below the high watermark. This is a reasonable policy if there's only one memory type. But this makes the original NUMA balancing mechanism almost do not work to optimize page placement among different memory types. Details are as follows. It's the common cases that the working-set size of the workload is larger than the size of the fast memory nodes. Otherwise, it's unnecessary to use the slow memory at all. So, there are almost always no enough free pages in the fast memory nodes, so that the globally hot pages in the slow memory node cannot be promoted to the fast memory node. To solve the issue, we have 2 choices as follows, a. Ignore the free pages watermark checking when promoting hot pages from the slow memory node to the fast memory node. This will create some memory pressure in the fast memory node, thus trigger the memory reclaiming. So that, the cold pages in the fast memory node will be demoted to the slow memory node. b. Define a new watermark called wmark_promo which is higher than wmark_high, and have kswapd reclaiming pages until free pages reach such watermark. The scenario is as follows: when we want to promote hot-pages from a slow memory to a fast memory, but fast memory's free pages would go lower than high watermark with such promotion, we wake up kswapd with wmark_promo watermark in order to demote cold pages and free us up some space. So, next time we want to promote hot-pages we might have a chance of doing so. The choice "a" may create high memory pressure in the fast memory node. If the memory pressure of the workload is high, the memory pressure may become so high that the memory allocation latency of the workload is influenced, e.g. the direct reclaiming may be triggered. The choice "b" works much better at this aspect. If the memory pressure of the workload is high, the hot pages promotion will stop earlier because its allocation watermark is higher than that of the normal memory allocation. So in this patch, choice "b" is implemented. A new zone watermark (WMARK_PROMO) is added. Which is larger than the high watermark and can be controlled via watermark_scale_factor. In addition to the original page placement optimization among sockets, the NUMA balancing mechanism is extended to be used to optimize page placement according to hot/cold among different memory types. So the sysctl user space interface (numa_balancing) is extended in a backward compatible way as follow, so that the users can enable/disable these functionality individually. The sysctl is converted from a Boolean value to a bits field. The definition of the flags is, - 0: NUMA_BALANCING_DISABLED - 1: NUMA_BALANCING_NORMAL - 2: NUMA_BALANCING_MEMORY_TIERING We have tested the patch with the pmbench memory accessing benchmark with the 80:20 read/write ratio and the Gauss access address distribution on a 2 socket Intel server with Optane DC Persistent Memory Model. The test results shows that the pmbench score can improve up to 95.9%. Thanks Andrew Morton to help fix the document format error.

signal: Move set_notify_signal and clear_notify_signal into sched/signal.h
The header tracehook.h is no place for code to live. The functions set_notify_signal and clear_notify_signal are not about signals. They are about interruptions that act like signals. The fundamental signal primitives wind up calling set_notify_signal and clear_notify_signal. Which means they need to be maintained with the signal code. Since set_notify_signal and clear_notify_signal must be maintained with the signal subsystem move them into sched/signal.h and claim them as part of the signal subsystem.

fork: Move task stack accounting to do_exit()
There is no need to perform the stack accounting of the outgoing task in its final schedule() invocation which happens with preemption disabled. The task is leaving, the resources will be freed and the accounting can happen in do_exit() before the actual schedule invocation which frees the stack memory. Move the accounting of the stack memory from release_task_stack() to exit_task_stack_account() which then can be invoked from do_exit().
