Scheduler updates for this cycle are:
- Clean up SCHED_DEBUG: move the decades old mess of sysctl, procfs and debugfs interfaces
to a unified debugfs interface.
- Signals: Allow caching one sigqueue object per task, to improve performance & latencies.
- Improve newidle_balance() irq-off latencies on systems with a large number of CPU cgroups.
- Improve energy-aware scheduling
- Improve the PELT metrics for certain workloads
- Reintroduce select_idle_smt() to improve load-balancing locality - but without the previous
regressions
- Add 'scheduler latency debugging': warn after long periods of pending need_resched. This
is an opt-in feature that requires the enabling of the LATENCY_WARN scheduler feature,
or the use of the resched_latency_warn_ms=xx boot parameter.
- CPU hotplug fixes for HP-rollback, and for the 'fail' interface. Fix remaining
balance_push() vs. hotplug holes/races
- PSI fixes, plus allow /proc/pressure/ files to be written by CAP_SYS_RESOURCE tasks as well
- Fix/improve various load-balancing corner cases vs. capacity margins
- Fix sched topology on systems with NUMA diameter of 3 or above
- Fix PF_KTHREAD vs to_kthread() race
- Minor rseq optimizations
- Misc cleanups, optimizations, fixes and smaller updates

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

softirq: Add RT specific softirq accounting
RT requires the softirq processing and local bottomhalf disabled regions to be preemptible. Using the normal preempt count based serialization is therefore not possible because this implicitely disables preemption. RT kernels use a per CPU local lock to serialize bottomhalfs. As local_bh_disable() can nest the lock can only be acquired on the outermost invocation of local_bh_disable() and released when the nest count becomes zero. Tasks which hold the local lock can be preempted so its required to keep track of the nest count per task. Add a RT only counter to task struct and adjust the relevant macros in preempt.h.

kcov: Remove kcov include from sched.h and move it to its users.
The recent addition of in_serving_softirq() to kconv.h results in compile failure on PREEMPT_RT because it requires task_struct::softirq_disable_cnt. This is not available if kconv.h is included from sched.h. It is not needed to include kconv.h from sched.h. All but the net/ user already include the kconv header file.

io-wq: fork worker threads from original task
Instead of using regular kthread kernel threads, create kernel threads that are like a real thread that the task would create. This ensures that we get all the context that we need, without having to carry that state around. This greatly reduces the code complexity, and the risk of missing state for a given request type. With the move away from kthread, we can also dump everything related to assigned state to the new threads. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> |

x86:
- Support for userspace to emulate Xen hypercalls
- Raise the maximum number of user memslots
- Scalability improvements for the new MMU. Instead of the complex
"fast page fault" logic that is used in mmu.c, tdp_mmu.c uses an
rwlock so that page faults are concurrent, but the code that can run
against page faults is limited. Right now only page faults take the
lock for reading; in the future this will be extended to some
cases of page table destruction. I hope to switch the default MMU
around 5.12-rc3 (some testing was delayed due to Chinese New Year).
- Cleanups for MAXPHYADDR checks
- Use static calls for vendor-specific callbacks
- On AMD, use VMLOAD/VMSAVE to save and restore host state
- Stop using deprecated jump label APIs
- Workaround for AMD erratum that made nested virtualization unreliable
- Support for LBR emulation in the guest
- Support for communicating bus lock vmexits to userspace
- Add support for SEV attestation command
- Miscellaneous cleanups
PPC:
- Support for second data watchpoint on POWER10
- Remove some complex workarounds for buggy early versions of POWER9
- Guest entry/exit fixes
ARM64
- Make the nVHE EL2 object relocatable
- Cleanups for concurrent translation faults hitting the same page
- Support for the standard TRNG hypervisor call
- A bunch of small PMU/Debug fixes

Non-KVM changes (with acks):
- Detection of contended rwlocks (implemented only for qrwlocks,
because KVM only needs it for x86)
- Allow __DISABLE_EXPORTS from assembly code
- Provide a saner follow_pfn replacements for modules

The new preemtible kmap_local() implementation:
- Consolidate all kmap_atomic() internals into a generic implementation
which builds the base for the kmap_local() API and make the
kmap_atomic() interface wrappers which handle the disabling/enabling of
preemption and pagefaults.
- Switch the storage from per-CPU to per task and provide scheduler
support for clearing mapping when scheduling out and restoring them
when scheduling back in.
- Merge the migrate_disable/enable() code, which is also part of the
scheduler pull request. This was required to make the kmap_local()
interface available which does not disable preemption when a mapping
is established. It has to disable migration instead to guarantee that
the virtual address of the mapped slot is the same accross preemption.
- Provide better debug facilities: guard pages and enforced utilization
of the mapping mechanics on 64bit systems when the architecture allows
it.
- Provide the new kmap_local() API which can now be used to cleanup the
kmap_atomic() usage sites all over the place. Most of the usage sites
do not require the implicit disabling of preemption and pagefaults so
the penalty on 64bit and 32bit non-highmem systems is removed and quite
some of the code can be simplified. A wholesale conversion is not
possible because some usage depends on the implicit side effects and
some need to be cleaned up because they work around these side effects.
The migrate disable side effect is only effective on highmem systems
and when enforced debugging is enabled. On 64bit and 32bit non-highmem
systems the overhead is completely avoided.

Pull kmap updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"The new preemtible kmap_local() implementation:
- Consolidate all kmap_atomic() internals into a generic
implementation which builds the base for the kmap_local() API and
make the kmap_atomic() interface wrappers which handle the
disabling/enabling of preemption and pagefaults.
- Switch the storage from per-CPU to per task and provide scheduler
support for clearing mapping when scheduling out and restoring them
when scheduling back in.
- Merge the migrate_disable/enable() code, which is also part of the
scheduler pull request. This was required to make the kmap_local()
interface available which does not disable preemption when a
mapping is established. It has to disable migration instead to
guarantee that the virtual address of the mapped slot is the same
across preemption.
- Provide better debug facilities: guard pages and enforced
utilization of the mapping mechanics on 64bit systems when the
architecture allows it.
- Provide the new kmap_local() API which can now be used to cleanup
the kmap_atomic() usage sites all over the place. Most of the usage
sites do not require the implicit disabling of preemption and
pagefaults so the penalty on 64bit and 32bit non-highmem systems is
removed and quite some of the code can be simplified. A wholesale
conversion is not possible because some usage depends on the
implicit side effects and some need to be cleaned up because they
work around these side effects.
The migrate disable side effect is only effective on highmem
systems and when enforced debugging is enabled. On 64bit and 32bit
non-highmem systems the overhead is completely avoided"

- The selective syscall redirection facility which provides a clean and

at syscall entry and redirecting them to the user space emulation. This
can be utilized for other purposes as well and has been designed
carefully to avoid overhead for the regular fastpath. This includes the
core changes and the x86 support code.
- Simplification of the context tracking entry/exit handling for the users
of the generic entry code which guarantee the proper ordering and
protection.
- Preparatory changes to make the generic entry code accomodate S390

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

sched: highmem: Store local kmaps in task struct
Instead of storing the map per CPU provide and use per task storage. That prepares for local kmaps which are preemptible. The context switch code is preparatory and not yet in use because kmap_atomic() runs with preemption disabled. Will be made usable in the next step. The context switch logic is safe even when an interrupt happens after clearing or before restoring the kmaps. The kmap index in task struct is not modified so any nesting kmap in an interrupt will use unused indices and on return the counter is the same as before. Also add an assert into the return to user space code. Going back to user space with an active kmap local is a nono.

sched: Make migrate_disable/enable() independent of RT
Now that the scheduler can deal with migrate disable properly, there is no real compelling reason to make it only available for RT. There are quite some code pathes which needlessly disable preemption in order to prevent migration and some constructs like kmap_atomic() enforce it implicitly. Making it available independent of RT allows to provide a preemptible variant of kmap_atomic() and makes the code more consistent in general.

A couple of scheduler fixes:
- Make the conditional update of the overutilized state work correctly by
caching the relevant flags state before overwriting them and checking
them afterwards.
- Fix a data race in the wakeup path which caused loadavg on ARM64
platforms to become a random number generator.
- Fix the ordering of the iowaiter accounting operations so it can't be
decremented before it is incremented.
- Fix a bug in the deadline scheduler vs. priority inheritance when a
non-deadline task A has inherited the parameters of a deadline task B
and then blocks on a non-deadline task C.
The second inheritance step used the static deadline parameters of task
A, which are usually 0, instead of further propagating task B's
parameters. The zero initialized parameters trigger a bug in the
deadline scheduler.

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

sched: Fix data-race in wakeup
Mel reported that on some ARM64 platforms loadavg goes bananas and
Will tracked it down to the following race:
CPU0 CPU1
schedule()
prev->sched_contributes_to_load = X;
deactivate_task(prev);
try_to_wake_up()
if (p->on_rq &&) // false
if (smp_load_acquire(&p->on_cpu) && // true
ttwu_queue_wakelist())
p->sched_remote_wakeup = Y;
smp_store_release(prev->on_cpu, 0);
where both p->sched_contributes_to_load and p->sched_remote_wakeup are
in the same word, and thus the stores X and Y race (and can clobber
one another's data).

sched: Fix migrate_disable() vs rt/dl balancing
In order to minimize the interference of migrate_disable() on lower priority tasks, which can be deprived of runtime due to being stuck below a higher priority task. Teach the RT/DL balancers to push away these higher priority tasks when a lower priority task gets selected to run on a freshly demoted CPU (pull). This adds migration interference to the higher priority task, but restores bandwidth to system that would otherwise be irrevocably lost. Without this it would be possible to have all tasks on the system stuck on a single CPU, each task preempted in a migrate_disable() section with a single high priority task running. This way we can still approximate running the M highest priority tasks on the system. Migrating the top task away is (ofcourse) still subject to migrate_disable() too, which means the lower task is subject to an interference equivalent to the worst case migrate_disable() section.

sched: Fix migrate_disable() vs set_cpus_allowed_ptr()
Concurrent migrate_disable() and set_cpus_allowed_ptr() has interesting features. We rely on set_cpus_allowed_ptr() to not return until the task runs inside the provided mask. This expectation is exported to userspace. This means that any set_cpus_allowed_ptr() caller must wait until migrate_enable() allows migrations. At the same time, we don't want migrate_enable() to schedule, due to patterns like: preempt_disable(); migrate_disable(); ... migrate_enable(); preempt_enable(); And: raw_spin_lock(&B); spin_unlock(&A); this means that when migrate_enable() must restore the affinity mask, it cannot wait for completion thereof. Luck will have it that that is exactly the case where there is a pending set_cpus_allowed_ptr(), so let that provide storage for the async stop machine. Much thanks to Valentin who used TLA+ most effective and found lots of 'interesting' cases.

in_ubsan field of task_struct is only used in lib/ubsan.c, which in its turn is used only `ifneq ($(CONFIG_UBSAN_TRAP),y)`.

kasan/kunit: add KUnit Struct to Current Task
Patch series "KASAN-KUnit Integration", v14. This patchset contains everything needed to integrate KASAN and KUnit. KUnit will be able to: (1) Fail tests when an unexpected KASAN error occurs (2) Pass tests when an expected KASAN error occurs Convert KASAN tests to KUnit with the exception of copy_user_test because KUnit is unable to test those. Add documentation on how to run the KASAN tests with KUnit and what to expect when running these tests. This patch (of 5): In order to integrate debugging tools like KASAN into the KUnit framework, add KUnit struct to the current task to keep track of the current KUnit test.

x86/mce: Recover from poison found while copying from user space
Existing kernel code can only recover from a machine check on code that is tagged in the exception table with a fault handling recovery path. Add two new fields in the task structure to pass information from machine check handler to the "task_work" that is queued to run before the task returns to user mode: + mce_vaddr: will be initialized to the user virtual address of the fault in the case where the fault occurred in the kernel copying data from a user address. This is so that kill_me_maybe() can provide that information to the user SIGBUS handler. + mce_kflags: copy of the struct mce.kflags needed by kill_me_maybe() to determine if mce_vaddr is applicable to this error. Add code to recover from a machine check while copying data from user space to the kernel. Action for this case is the same as if the user touched the poison directly; unmap the page and send a SIGBUS to the task.

io_uring: don't rely on weak ->files references
Grab actual references to the files_struct. To avoid circular references issues due to this, we add a per-task note that keeps track of what io_uring contexts a task has used. When the tasks execs or exits its assigned files, we cancel requests based on this tracking. With that, we can grab proper references to the files table, and no longer need to rely on stashing away ring_fd and ring_file to check if the ring_fd may have been closed.

sched: Bring the PF_IO_WORKER and PF_WQ_WORKER bits closer together
The bits PF_IO_WORKER and PF_WQ_WORKER are tested together in sched_submit_work() which is considered to be a hot path. If the two bits cross the 8 or 16 bit boundary then most architecture require multiple load instructions in order to create the constant value. Also, such a value can not be encoded within the compare opcode. By moving the bit definition within the same block, the compiler can create/use one immediate value. For some reason gcc-10 on ARM64 requires both bits to be next to each other in order to issue "tst reg, val; bne label". Otherwise the result is "mov reg1, val; tst reg, reg1; bne label". Move PF_VCPU out of the way so that PF_IO_WORKER can be next to PF_WQ_WORKER.

A set of posix CPU timer changes which allows to defer the heavy work of
posix CPU timers into task work context. The tick interrupt is reduced to a quick check which queues the work which is doing the heavy lifting before returning to user space or going back to guest mode. Moving this out is deferring the signal delivery slightly but posix CPU timers are inaccurate by nature as they depend on the tick so there is no real damage. The relevant test cases all passed. This lifts the last offender for RT out of the hard interrupt context tick handler, but it also has the general benefit that the actual heavy work is accounted to the task/process and not to the tick interrupt itself. Further optimizations are possible to break long sighand lock hold and interrupt disabled (on !RT kernels) times when a massive amount of posix CPU timers (which are unpriviledged) is armed for a task/process. This is currently only enabled for x86 because the architecture has to ensure that task work is handled in KVM before entering a guest, which was just established for x86 with the new common entry/exit code which got merged post 5.8 and is not the case for other KVM architectures. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQJHBAABCgAxFiEEQp8+kY+LLUocC4bMphj1TA10mKEFAl82sRkTHHRnbHhAbGlu dXRyb25peC5kZQAKCRCmGPVMDXSYoUs2D/9IZuALnVXtnvsOQh5uMRpxr/I6tpQm KJSRkcSSne9rIV3dQlswDdaT7bGibd7pbKQOnlA0vc37vDwaJHEzmTOJGpHpHnMA fHH2QP3LL2oZ1d7DG6eNJESCmaFBcaYXNbKtluOWQzHQhd9P8yHb4N+kzfxHK0Fr uNd+cd6T658xPsNOLaLP3MG2Yz0rVt2F5c1v8n78NfibeKckYhPov8cwVrf2WGWr XFHKorx4lXZ+vFwKEeZ7qQtqvAsLDixgMkFfY2GGSPhd1AMAaIUICZgsdEj2gg7H YK+lwA0uoqPaXshOCmdkCLkfPA7BRmAySWE7jUPbIvRqM94Uapk9+4CqjgiH1Qs+ T8CWbcZk8tZACFrouhZkhrnjUTev/vE7oirsjn26DRY68/Ec7llpCOjvVA7HZWqN vJ/BN35IufA7WEkf2TWNv5mg1zIlHI0O17zDifFq4g2VKFDVvQB0QYWlvug/eAu9 zYNX3WwA/IP8C9EOHZt54e6AKH8F3dT04oLFUkmRIcVKv1SEbdFufVfV7RavPEwK P21JNXPDdd0aLUO7ksqyQN7pyR3puGXSCb5NAPtZY6UWSMN4G/3SVry3mJa/0BJd mn+uYGpo9vmceh90vAHBoGIena/pez/PyRLWgGeT9jMjk95rNY0sEhaLEAOF9AR5 ck+3K2rY0S3wwQ== =Reot -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'timers-core-2020-08-14' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull more timer updates from Thomas Gleixner: "A set of posix CPU timer changes which allows to defer the heavy work of posix CPU timers into task work context.

A set of locking fixes and updates:
- Untangle the header spaghetti which causes build failures in various
situations caused by the lockdep additions to seqcount to validate that
the write side critical sections are non-preemptible.
- The seqcount associated lock debug addons which were blocked by the
above fallout.
seqcount writers contrary to seqlock writers must be externally
serialized, which usually happens via locking - except for strict per
CPU seqcounts. As the lock is not part of the seqcount, lockdep cannot
validate that the lock is held.
This new debug mechanism adds the concept of associated locks.
sequence count has now lock type variants and corresponding
initializers which take a pointer to the associated lock used for
writer serialization. If lockdep is enabled the pointer is stored and
write_seqcount_begin() has a lockdep assertion to validate that the
lock is held.
Aside of the type and the initializer no other code changes are
required at the seqcount usage sites. The rest of the seqcount API is
unchanged and determines the type at compile time with the help of
_Generic which is possible now that the minimal GCC version has been
moved up.
Adding this lockdep coverage unearthed a handful of seqcount bugs which
have been addressed already independent of this.
While generaly useful this comes with a Trojan Horse twist: On RT
kernels the write side critical section can become preemtible if the
writers are serialized by an associated lock, which leads to the well
known reader preempts writer livelock. RT prevents this by storing the
associated lock pointer independent of lockdep in the seqcount and
changing the reader side to block on the lock when a reader detects
that a writer is in the write side critical section.

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

locking/seqlock, headers: Untangle the spaghetti monster
By using lockdep_assert_*() from seqlock.h, the spaghetti monster
attacked.
Attack back by reducing seqlock.h dependencies from two key high level headers:
- <linux/seqlock.h>: -Remove <linux/ww_mutex.h>
- <linux/time.h>: -Remove <linux/seqlock.h>
- <linux/sched.h>: +Add <linux/seqlock.h>
The price was to add it to sched.h ...
Core header fallout, we add direct header dependencies instead of gaining them
parasitically from higher level headers:
- <linux/dynamic_queue_limits.h>: +Add <asm/bug.h>
- <linux/hrtimer.h>: +Add <linux/seqlock.h>
- <linux/ktime.h>: +Add <asm/bug.h>
- <linux/lockdep.h>: +Add <linux/smp.h>
- <linux/sched.h>: +Add <linux/seqlock.h>
- <linux/videodev2.h>: +Add <linux/kernel.h>
Arch headers fallout:
- PARISC: <asm/timex.h>: +Add <asm/special_insns.h>
- SH: <asm/io.h>: +Add <asm/page.h>
- SPARC: <asm/timer_64.h>: +Add <uapi/asm/asi.h>

The main changes in this cycle were:
- Improve uclamp performance by using a static key for the fast path
- Add the "sched_util_clamp_min_rt_default" sysctl, to optimize for
better power efficiency of RT tasks on battery powered devices.
(The default is to maximize performance & reduce RT latencies.)
- Improve utime and stime tracking accuracy, which had a fixed boundary
of error, which created larger and larger relative errors as the values
become larger. This is now replaced with more precise arithmetics,
using the new mul_u64_u64_div_u64() helper in math64.h.
- Improve the deadline scheduler, such as making it capacity aware
- Improve frequency-invariant scheduling
- Misc cleanups in energy/power aware scheduling
- Add sched_update_nr_running tracepoint to track changes to nr_running
- Documentation additions and updates
- Misc cleanups and smaller fixes

kcsan: Improve IRQ state trace reporting
To improve the general usefulness of the IRQ state trace events with
KCSAN enabled, save and restore the trace information when entering and
exiting the KCSAN runtime as well as when generating a KCSAN report.
Without this, reporting the IRQ trace events (whether via a KCSAN report
or outside of KCSAN via a lockdep report) is rather useless due to
continuously being touched by KCSAN. This is because if KCSAN is
enabled, every instrumented memory access causes changes to IRQ trace
events (either by KCSAN disabling/enabling interrupts or taking
report_lock when generating a report).
Before "lockdep: Prepare for NMI IRQ state tracking", KCSAN avoided
touching the IRQ trace events via raw_local_irq_save/restore() and
lockdep_off/on().

lockdep: Refactor IRQ trace events fields into struct
Refactor the IRQ trace events fields, used for printing information about the IRQ trace events, into a separate struct 'irqtrace_events'. This improves readability by separating the information only used in reporting, as well as enables (simplified) storing/restoring of irqtrace_events snapshots. No functional change intended.

sched: tasks: Use sequence counter with associated spinlock
A sequence counter write side critical section must be protected by some form of locking to serialize writers. A plain seqcount_t does not contain the information of which lock must be held when entering a write side critical section. Use the new seqcount_spinlock_t data type, which allows to associate a spinlock with the sequence counter. This enables lockdep to verify that the spinlock used for writer serialization is held when the write side critical section is entered. If lockdep is disabled this lock association is compiled out and has neither storage size nor runtime overhead. Signed-off-by: Ahmed S.
