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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

IOMMU Updates for Linux v5.13
Including:
- Big cleanup of almost unsused parts of the IOMMU API by
Christoph Hellwig. This mostly affects the Freescale PAMU
driver.
- New IOMMU driver for Unisoc SOCs
- ARM SMMU Updates from Will:
- SMMUv3: Drop vestigial PREFETCH_ADDR support
- SMMUv3: Elide TLB sync logic for empty gather
- SMMUv3: Fix "Service Failure Mode" handling
- SMMUv2: New Qualcomm compatible string
- Removal of the AMD IOMMU performance counter writeable check
on AMD. It caused long boot delays on some machines and is
only needed to work around an errata on some older (possibly
pre-production) chips. If someone is still hit by this
hardware issue anyway the performance counters will just
return 0.
- Support for targeted invalidations in the AMD IOMMU driver.
Before that the driver only invalidated a single 4k page or the
whole IO/TLB for an address space. This has been extended now
and is mostly useful for emulated AMD IOMMUs.
- Several fixes for the Shared Virtual Memory support in the
Intel VT-d driver
- Mediatek drivers can now be built as modules
- Re-introduction of the forcedac boot option which got lost
when converting the Intel VT-d driver to the common dma-iommu
implementation.
- Extension of the IOMMU device registration interface and
support iommu_ops to be const again when drivers are built as
modules.

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

arm64 updates for 5.13:
- MTE asynchronous support for KASan. Previously only synchronous
(slower) mode was supported. Asynchronous is faster but does not allow
precise identification of the illegal access.
- Run kernel mode SIMD with softirqs disabled. This allows using NEON in
softirq context for crypto performance improvements. The conditional
yield support is modified to take softirqs into account and reduce the
latency.
- Preparatory patches for Apple M1: handle CPUs that only have the VHE
mode available (host kernel running at EL2), add FIQ support.
- arm64 perf updates: support for HiSilicon PA and SLLC PMU drivers, new
functions for the HiSilicon HHA and L3C PMU, cleanups.
- Re-introduce support for execute-only user permissions but only when
the EPAN (Enhanced Privileged Access Never) architecture feature is
available.
- Disable fine-grained traps at boot and improve the documented boot
requirements.
- Support CONFIG_KASAN_VMALLOC on arm64 (only with KASAN_GENERIC).
- Add hierarchical eXecute Never permissions for all page tables.
- Add arm64 prctl(PR_PAC_{SET,GET}_ENABLED_KEYS) allowing user programs
to control which PAC keys are enabled in a particular task.
- arm64 kselftests for BTI and some improvements to the MTE tests.
- Minor improvements to the compat vdso and sigpage.
- Miscellaneous cleanups.

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

Entry code update:
Provide support for randomized stack offsets per syscall to make stack-based attacks harder which rely on the deterministic stack layout. The feature is based on the original idea of PaX's RANDSTACK feature, but uses a significantly different implementation. The offset does not affect the pt_regs location on the task stack as this was agreed on to be of dubious value. The offset is applied before the actual syscall is invoked. The offset is stored per cpu and the randomization happens at the end of the syscall which is less predictable than on syscall entry. The mechanism to apply the offset is via alloca(), i.e. abusing the dispised VLAs. This comes with the drawback that stack-clash-protection has to be disabled for the affected compilation units and there is also a negative interaction with stack-protector.

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

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

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

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

This testing is controlled by two new boolean module parameters, kfree_rcu_test_single and kfree_rcu_test_double. If one is set and the other not, only the corresponding variant is tested, otherwise both are tested, with the variant to be tested determined randomly on each invocation. Both of these module parameters are initialized to false, so setting either to true will test only that variant. Suggested-by: Paul E.

So deprecate the use of "all" by removing documentation references to it. The support itself needs to remain for now, since we don't know how many people out there are using it currently, but since it is in an __init area anyway, it isn't worth losing sleep over.

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

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

lib: stackdepot: add support to disable stack depot
Add a kernel parameter stack_depot_disable to disable stack depot. So that stack hash table doesn't consume any memory when stack depot is disabled. The use case is CONFIG_PAGE_OWNER without page_owner=on. Without this patch, stackdepot will consume the memory for the hashtable. By default, it's 8M which is never trivial. With this option, in CONFIG_PAGE_OWNER configured system, page_owner=off, stack_depot_disable in kernel command line, we could save the wasted memory for the hashtable.

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

arm64 updates for 5.12
- vDSO build improvements including support for building with BSD.
- Cleanup to the AMU support code and initialisation rework to support
cpufreq drivers built as modules.
- Removal of synthetic frame record from exception stack when entering
the kernel from EL0.
- Add support for the TRNG firmware call introduced by Arm spec
DEN0098.
- Cleanup and refactoring across the board.
- Avoid calling arch_get_random_seed_long() from
add_interrupt_randomness()
- Perf and PMU updates including support for Cortex-A78 and the v8.3
SPE extensions.
- Significant steps along the road to leaving the MMU enabled during
kexec relocation.
- Faultaround changes to initialise prefaulted PTEs as 'old' when
hardware access-flag updates are supported, which drastically
improves vmscan performance.
- CPU errata updates for Cortex-A76 (#1463225) and Cortex-A55
(#1024718)
- Preparatory work for yielding the vector unit at a finer granularity
in the crypto code, which in turn will one day allow us to defer
softirq processing when it is in use.
- Support for overriding CPU ID register fields on the command-line.

Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
- vDSO build improvements including support for building with BSD.
- Cleanup to the AMU support code and initialisation rework to support
cpufreq drivers built as modules.
- Removal of synthetic frame record from exception stack when entering
the kernel from EL0.
- Add support for the TRNG firmware call introduced by Arm spec
DEN0098.
- Cleanup and refactoring across the board.
- Avoid calling arch_get_random_seed_long() from
add_interrupt_randomness()
- Perf and PMU updates including support for Cortex-A78 and the v8.3
SPE extensions.
- Significant steps along the road to leaving the MMU enabled during
kexec relocation.
- Faultaround changes to initialise prefaulted PTEs as 'old' when
hardware access-flag updates are supported, which drastically
improves vmscan performance.
- CPU errata updates for Cortex-A76 (#1463225) and Cortex-A55
(#1024718)
- Preparatory work for yielding the vector unit at a finer granularity
in the crypto code, which in turn will one day allow us to defer
softirq processing when it is in use.
- Support for overriding CPU ID register fields on the command-line.

The performance event updates for v5.12 are:
- Add CPU-PMU support for Intel Sapphire Rapids CPUs
- Extend the perf ABI with PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_STRUCT, to offer two-parameter
sampling event feedback. Not used yet, but is intended for Golden Cove
CPU-PMU, which can provide both the instruction latency and the cache
latency information for memory profiling events.
- Remove experimental, default-disabled perfmon-v4 counter_freezing support
that could only be enabled via a boot option. The hardware is hopelessly
broken, we'd like to make sure nobody starts relying on this, as it would
only end in tears.
- Fix energy/power events on Intel SPR platforms
- Simplify the uprobes resume_execution() logic
- Misc smaller fixes.

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

Remove oprofile and dcookies support

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

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

perf/intel: Remove Perfmon-v4 counter_freezing support
Perfmon-v4 counter freezing is fundamentally broken; remove this default disabled code to make sure nobody uses it. The feature is called Freeze-on-PMI in the SDM, and if it would do that, there wouldn't actually be a problem, *however* it does something subtly different. It globally disables the whole PMU when it raises the PMI, not when the PMI hits. This means there's a window between the PMI getting raised and the PMI actually getting served where we loose events and this violates the perf counter independence. That is, a counting event should not result in a different event count when there is a sampling event co-scheduled. This is known to break existing software (RR).

rcu: Enable rcu_normal_after_boot unconditionally for RT
Expedited RCU grace periods send IPIs to all non-idle CPUs, and thus can disrupt time-critical code in real-time applications. However, there is a portion of boot-time processing (presumably before any real-time applications have started) where expedited RCU grace periods are the only option. And so it is that experience with the -rt patchset indicates that PREEMPT_RT systems should always set the rcupdate.rcu_normal_after_boot kernel boot parameter. This commit therefore makes the post-boot application environment safe for real-time applications by making PREEMPT_RT systems disable the rcupdate.rcu_normal_after_boot kernel boot parameter and acting as if this parameter had been set. This means that post-boot calls to synchronize_rcu_expedited() will be treated as if they were instead calls to synchronize_rcu(), thus preventing the IPIs, and thus avoiding disrupting real-time applications.

rcu: Unconditionally use rcuc threads on PREEMPT_RT
PREEMPT_RT systems have long used the rcutree.use_softirq kernel boot parameter to avoid use of RCU_SOFTIRQ handlers, which can disrupt real-time applications by invoking callbacks during return from interrupts that arrived while executing time-critical code. This kernel boot parameter instead runs RCU core processing in an 'rcuc' kthread, thus allowing the scheduler to do its job of avoiding disrupting time-critical code. This commit therefore disables the rcutree.use_softirq kernel boot parameter on PREEMPT_RT systems, thus forcing such systems to do RCU core processing in 'rcuc' kthreads. This approach has long been in use by users of the -rt patchset, and there have been no complaints. There is therefore no way for the system administrator to override this choice, at least without modifying and rebuilding the kernel.

ARM: SoC drivers for v5.11
There are a couple of subsystems maintained by other people that
merge their drivers through the SoC tree, those changes include:
- The SCMI firmware framework gains support for sensor notifications
and for controlling voltage domains.
- A large update for the Tegra memory controller driver, integrating
it better with the interconnect framework
- The memory controller subsystem gains support for Mediatek MT8192
- The reset controller framework gains support for sharing pulsed
resets
For Soc specific drivers in drivers/soc, the main changes are
- The Allwinner/sunxi MBUS gets a rework for the way it handles
dma_map_ops and offsets between physical and dma address spaces.
- An errata fix plus some cleanups for Freescale Layerscape SoCs
- A cleanup for renesas drivers regarding MMIO accesses.
- New SoC specific drivers for Mediatek MT8192 and MT8183 power domains
- New SoC specific drivers for Aspeed AST2600 LPC bus control
and SoC identification.
- Core Power Domain support for Qualcomm MSM8916, MSM8939, SDM660
and SDX55.
- A rework of the TI AM33xx 'genpd' power domain support to use
information from DT instead of platform data
- Support for TI AM64x SoCs
- Allow building some Amlogic drivers as modules instead of built-in
Finally, there are numerous cleanups and smaller bug fixes for
Mediatek, Tegra, Samsung, Qualcomm, TI OMAP, Amlogic, Rockchips,
Renesas, and Xilinx SoCs.
There is a trivial conflict in the cedrus driver, with two branches
adding the same CEDRUS_CAPABILITY_H265_DEC flag, and another trivial
remove/remove conflict in linux/dma-mapping.h.

- Automatic cross references without explicit :ref: markup

KVM: arm64: Add kvm-arm.mode early kernel parameter
Add an early parameter that allows users to select the mode of operation for KVM/arm64. For now, the only supported value is "protected". By passing this flag users opt into the hypervisor placing additional restrictions on the host kernel. These allow the hypervisor to spawn guests whose state is kept private from the host. Restrictions will include stage-2 address translation to prevent host from accessing guest memory, filtering its SMC calls, etc. Without this parameter, the default behaviour remains selecting VHE/nVHE based on hardware support and CONFIG_ARM64_VHE.

powerpc/64s: flush L1D after user accesses
IBM Power9 processors can speculatively operate on data in the L1 cache before it has been completely validated, via a way-prediction mechanism. It is not possible for an attacker to determine the contents of impermissible memory using this method, since these systems implement a combination of hardware and software security measures to prevent scenarios where protected data could be leaked. However these measures don't address the scenario where an attacker induces the operating system to speculatively execute instructions using data that the attacker controls. This can be used for example to speculatively bypass "kernel user access prevention" techniques, as discovered by Anthony Steinhauser of Google's Safeside Project. This is not an attack by itself, but there is a possibility it could be used in conjunction with side-channels or other weaknesses in the privileged code to construct an attack. This issue can be mitigated by flushing the L1 cache between privilege boundaries of concern. This patch flushes the L1 cache after user accesses. This is part of the fix for CVE-2020-4788.

IBM Power9 processors can speculatively operate on data in the L1 cache before it has been completely validated, via a way-prediction mechanism. It is not possible for an attacker to determine the contents of impermissible memory using this method, since these systems implement a combination of hardware and software security measures to prevent scenarios where protected data could be leaked. However these measures don't address the scenario where an attacker induces the operating system to speculatively execute instructions using data that the attacker controls. This can be used for example to speculatively bypass "kernel user access prevention" techniques, as discovered by Anthony Steinhauser of Google's Safeside Project. This is not an attack by itself, but there is a possibility it could be used in conjunction with side-channels or other weaknesses in the privileged code to construct an attack. This issue can be mitigated by flushing the L1 cache between privilege boundaries of concern. This patch flushes the L1 cache on kernel entry. This is part of the fix for CVE-2020-4788.

xen/events: defer eoi in case of excessive number of events
In case rogue guests are sending events at high frequency it might happen that xen_evtchn_do_upcall() won't stop processing events in dom0. As this is done in irq handling a crash might be the result. In order to avoid that, delay further inter-domain events after some time in xen_evtchn_do_upcall() by forcing eoi processing into a worker on the same cpu, thus inhibiting new events coming in. The time after which eoi processing is to be delayed is configurable via a new module parameter "event_loop_timeout" which specifies the maximum event loop time in jiffies (default: 2, the value was chosen after some tests showing that a value of 2 was the lowest with an only slight drop of dom0 network throughput while multiple guests performed an event storm). How long eoi processing will be delayed can be specified via another parameter "event_eoi_delay" (again in jiffies, default 10, again the value was chosen after testing with different delay values). This is part of XSA-332.

lib, include/linux: add usercopy failure capability
Patch series "add fault injection to user memory access", v3. The goal of this series is to improve testing of fault-tolerance in usages of user memory access functions, by adding support for fault injection. syzkaller/syzbot are using the existing fault injection modes and will use this particular feature also. The first patch adds failure injection capability for usercopy functions. The second changes usercopy functions to use this new failure capability (copy_from_user, ...). The third patch adds get/put/clear_user failures to x86. This patch (of 3): Add a failure injection capability to improve testing of fault-tolerance in usages of user memory access functions. Add CONFIG_FAULT_INJECTION_USERCOPY to enable faults in usercopy functions. The should_fail_usercopy function is to be called by these functions (copy_from_user, get_user, ...) in order to fail or not.

networking changes for the 5.10 merge window
Add redirect_neigh() BPF packet redirect helper, allowing to limit stack traversal in common container configs and improving TCP back-pressure. Daniel reports ~10Gbps => ~15Gbps single stream TCP performance gain. Expand netlink policy support and improve policy export to user space. (Ge)netlink core performs request validation according to declared policies. Expand the expressiveness of those policies (min/max length and bitmasks). Allow dumping policies for particular commands. This is used for feature discovery by user space (instead of kernel version parsing or trial and error). Support IGMPv3/MLDv2 multicast listener discovery protocols in bridge. Allow more than 255 IPv4 multicast interfaces. Add support for Type of Service (ToS) reflection in SYN/SYN-ACK packets of TCPv6. In Multi-patch TCP (MPTCP) support concurrent transmission of data on multiple subflows in a load balancing scenario. Enhance advertising addresses via the RM_ADDR/ADD_ADDR options. Support SMC-Dv2 version of SMC, which enables multi-subnet deployments. Allow more calls to same peer in RxRPC. Support two new Controller Area Network (CAN) protocols - CAN-FD and ISO 15765-2:2016. Add xfrm/IPsec compat layer, solving the 32bit user space on 64bit kernel problem. Add TC actions for implementing MPLS L2 VPNs. Improve nexthop code - e.g. handle various corner cases when nexthop objects are removed from groups better, skip unnecessary notifications and make it easier to offload nexthops into HW by converting to a blocking notifier. Support adding and consuming TCP header options by BPF programs, opening the doors for easy experimental and deployment-specific TCP option use. Reorganize TCP congestion control (CC) initialization to simplify life of TCP CC implemented in BPF. Add support for shipping BPF programs with the kernel and loading them early on boot via the User Mode Driver mechanism, hence reusing all the user space infra we have. Support sleepable BPF programs, initially targeting LSM and tracing. Add bpf_d_path() helper for returning full path for given 'struct path'. Make bpf_tail_call compatible with bpf-to-bpf calls. Allow BPF programs to call map_update_elem on sockmaps. Add BPF Type Format (BTF) support for type and enum discovery, as well as support for using BTF within the kernel itself (current use is for pretty printing structures). Support listing and getting information about bpf_links via the bpf syscall. Enhance kernel interfaces around NIC firmware update. Allow specifying overwrite mask to control if settings etc. are reset during update; report expected max time operation may take to users; support firmware activation without machine reboot incl. limits of how much impact reset may have (e.g. dropping link or not). Extend ethtool configuration interface to report IEEE-standard counters, to limit the need for per-vendor logic in user space. Adopt or extend devlink use for debug, monitoring, fw update in many drivers (dsa loop, ice, ionic, sja1105, qed, mlxsw, mv88e6xxx, dpaa2-eth). In mlxsw expose critical and emergency SFP module temperature alarms. Refactor port buffer handling to make the defaults more suitable and support setting these values explicitly via the DCBNL interface. Add XDP support for Intel's igb driver. Support offloading TC flower classification and filtering rules to mscc_ocelot switches. Add PTP support for Marvell Octeontx2 and PP2.2 hardware, as well as fixed interval period pulse generator and one-step timestamping in dpaa-eth. Add support for various auth offloads in WiFi APs, e.g. SAE (WPA3) offload. Add Lynx PHY/PCS MDIO module, and convert various drivers which have this HW to use it. Convert mvpp2 to split PCS. Support Marvell Prestera 98DX3255 24-port switch ASICs, as well as 7-port Mediatek MT7531 IP. Add initial support for QCA6390 and IPQ6018 in ath11k WiFi driver, and wcn3680 support in wcn36xx. Improve performance for packets which don't require much offloads on recent Mellanox NICs by 20% by making multiple packets share a descriptor entry. Move chelsio inline crypto drivers (for TLS and IPsec) from the crypto subtree to drivers/net. Move MDIO drivers out of the phy directory. Clean up a lot of W=1 warnings, reportedly the actively developed subsections of networking drivers should now build W=1 warning free. Make sure drivers don't use in_interrupt() to dynamically adapt their code. Convert tasklets to use new tasklet_setup API (sadly this conversion is not yet complete).

dma-contiguous: provide the ability to reserve per-numa CMA
Right now, drivers like ARM SMMU are using dma_alloc_coherent() to get coherent DMA buffers to save their command queues and page tables. As there is only one default CMA in the whole system, SMMUs on nodes other than node0 will get remote memory. This leads to significant latency. This patch provides per-numa CMA so that drivers like SMMU can get local memory. Tests show localizing CMA can decrease dma_unmap latency much. For instance, before this patch, SMMU on node2 has to wait for more than 560ns for the completion of CMD_SYNC in an empty command queue; with this patch, it needs 240ns only. A positive side effect of this patch would be improving performance even further for those users who are worried about performance more than DMA security and use iommu.passthrough=1 to skip IOMMU. With local CMA, all drivers can get local coherent DMA buffers. Also, this patch changes the default CONFIG_CMA_AREAS to 19 in NUMA. As 1+CONFIG_CMA_AREAS should be quite enough for most servers on the market even they enable both hugetlb_cma and pernuma_cma. 2 numa nodes: 2(hugetlb) + 2(pernuma) + 1(default global cma) = 5 4 numa nodes: 4(hugetlb) + 4(pernuma) + 1(default global cma) = 9 8 numa nodes: 8(hugetlb) + 8(pernuma) + 1(default global cma) = 17 Signed-off-by: Barry Song <song.bao.hua@hisilicon.com> Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> |

rcutorture: Allow pointer leaks to test diagnostic code
This commit adds an rcutorture.leakpointer module parameter that intentionally leaks an RCU-protected pointer out of the RCU read-side critical section and checks to see if the corresponding grace period has elapsed, emitting a WARN_ON_ONCE() if so. This module parameter can be used to test facilities like CONFIG_RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD that end grace periods quickly. While in the area, also document rcutorture.irqreader, which was previously left out. Reported-by Jann Horn <jannh@google.com> Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org> |

rcu: Provide optional RCU-reader exit delay for strict GPs
The goal of this series is to increase the probability of tools like KASAN detecting that an RCU-protected pointer was used outside of its RCU read-side critical section. Thus far, the approach has been to make grace periods and callback processing happen faster. Another approach is to delay the pointer leaker. This commit therefore allows a delay to be applied to exit from RCU read-side critical sections. This slowdown is specified by a new rcutree.rcu_unlock_delay kernel boot parameter that specifies this delay in microseconds, defaulting to zero.

rcuperf: Change rcuperf to rcuscale
This commit further avoids conflation of rcuperf with the kernel's perf feature by renaming kernel/rcu/rcuperf.c to kernel/rcu/rcuscale.c, and also by similarly renaming the functions and variables inside this file. This has the side effect of changing the names of the kernel boot parameters, so kernel-parameters.txt and ver_functions.sh are also updated. The rcutorture --torture type was also updated from rcuperf to rcuscale. [ paulmck: Fix bugs located by Stephen Rothwell. ] Reported-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

lib: Add backtrace_idle parameter to force backtrace of idle CPUs
Currently, the nmi_cpu_backtrace() declines to produce backtraces for idle CPUs. This is a good choice in the common case in which problems are caused only by non-idle CPUs. However, there are occasionally situations in which idle CPUs are helping to cause problems. This commit therefore adds an nmi_backtrace.backtrace_idle kernel boot parameter that causes nmi_cpu_backtrace() to dump stacks even of idle CPUs. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

mm, slub: extend slub_debug syntax for multiple blocks
Patch series "slub_debug fixes and improvements". The slub_debug kernel boot parameter can either apply a single set of options to all caches or a list of caches. There is a use case where debugging is applied for all caches and then disabled at runtime for specific caches, for performance and memory consumption reasons [1]. As runtime changes are dangerous, extend the boot parameter syntax so that multiple blocks of either global or slab-specific options can be specified, with blocks delimited by ';'. This will also support the use case of [1] without runtime changes. For details see the updated Documentation/vm/slub.rst [1] https://lore.kernel.org/r/1383cd32-1ddc-4dac-b5f8-9c42282fa81c@codeaurora.org [weiyongjun1@huawei.com: make parse_slub_debug_flags() static] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200702150522.4940-1-weiyongjun1@huawei.com Signed-off-by: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Reviewed-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Cc: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz> Cc: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux.com> Cc: Jann Horn <jannh@google.com> Cc: Roman Gushchin <guro@fb.com> Cc: Vijayanand Jitta <vjitta@codeaurora.org> Cc: Pekka Enberg <penberg@kernel.org> Cc: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Cc: Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim@lge.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200610163135.17364-2-vbabka@suse.cz Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> |

powerpc updates for 5.9
- Add support for (optionally) using queued spinlocks & rwlocks.
- Support for a new faster system call ABI using the scv instruction on Power9
or later.
- Drop support for the PROT_SAO mmap/mprotect flag as it will be unsupported on
Power10 and future processors, leaving us with no way to implement the
functionality it requests. This risks breaking userspace, though we believe
it is unused in practice.
- A bug fix for, and then the removal of, our custom stack expansion checking.
We now allow stack expansion up to the rlimit, like other architectures.
- Remove the remnants of our (previously disabled) topology update code, which
tried to react to NUMA layout changes on virtualised systems, but was prone
to crashes and other problems.
- Add PMU support for Power10 CPUs.
- A change to our signal trampoline so that we don't unbalance the link stack
(branch return predictor) in the signal delivery path.
- Lots of other cleanups, refactorings, smaller features and so on as usual.

Merge tag 'powerpc-5.9-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/powerpc/linux
Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
- Add support for (optionally) using queued spinlocks & rwlocks.
- Support for a new faster system call ABI using the scv instruction on
Power9 or later.
- Drop support for the PROT_SAO mmap/mprotect flag as it will be
unsupported on Power10 and future processors, leaving us with no way
to implement the functionality it requests. This risks breaking
userspace, though we believe it is unused in practice.
- A bug fix for, and then the removal of, our custom stack expansion
checking. We now allow stack expansion up to the rlimit, like other
architectures.
- Remove the remnants of our (previously disabled) topology update
code, which tried to react to NUMA layout changes on virtualised
systems, but was prone to crashes and other problems.
- Add PMU support for Power10 CPUs.
- A change to our signal trampoline so that we don't unbalance the link
stack (branch return predictor) in the signal delivery path.
- Lots of other cleanups, refactorings, smaller features and so on as
usual.

Driver core changes for 5.9-rc1
Here is the "big" set of changes to the driver core, and some drivers
using the changes, for 5.9-rc1.
"Biggest" thing in here is the device link exposure in sysfs, to help
to tame the madness that is SoC device tree representations and driver
interactions with it.
Other stuff in here that is interesting is:
- device probe log helper so that drivers can report problems in
a unified way easier.
- devres functions added
- DEVICE_ATTR_ADMIN_* macro added to make it harder to write
incorrect sysfs file permissions
- documentation cleanups
- ability for debugfs to be present in the kernel, yet not
exposed to userspace. Needed for systems that want it
enabled, but do not trust users, so they can still use some
kernel functions that were otherwise disabled.
- other minor fixes and cleanups
The patches outside of drivers/base/ all have acks from the respective
subsystem maintainers to go through this tree instead of theirs.
All of these have been in linux-next with no reported issues.

- Progress on the battle against double words words and non-HTTPS URLs
- Some block-mq documentation
- More RST conversions from Mauro. At this point, that task is
essentially complete, so we shouldn't see this kind of churn again for a

Support for FSGSBASE. Almost 5 years after the first RFC to support it,
this has been brought into a shape which is maintainable and actually works. This final version was done by Sasha Levin who took it up after Intel dropped the ball. Sasha discovered that the SGX (sic!) offerings out there ship rogue kernel modules enabling FSGSBASE behind the kernels back which opens an instantanious unpriviledged root hole. The FSGSBASE instructions provide a considerable speedup of the context switch path and enable user space to write GSBASE without kernel interaction. This enablement requires careful handling of the exception entries which go through the paranoid entry path as they cannot longer rely on the assumption that user GSBASE is positive (as enforced via prctl() on non FSGSBASE enabled systemn). All other entries (syscalls, interrupts and exceptions) can still just utilize SWAPGS unconditionally when the entry comes from user space. Converting these entries to use FSGSBASE has no benefit as SWAPGS is only marginally slower than WRGSBASE and locating and retrieving the kernel GSBASE value is not a free operation either. The real benefit of RD/WRGSBASE is the avoidance of the MSR reads and writes. The changes come with appropriate selftests and have held up in field testing against the (sanitized) Graphene-SGX driver. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQJHBAABCgAxFiEEQp8+kY+LLUocC4bMphj1TA10mKEFAl8pGnoTHHRnbHhAbGlu dXRyb25peC5kZQAKCRCmGPVMDXSYoTYJD/9873GkwvGcc/Vq/dJH1szGTgFftPyZ c/Y9gzx7EGBPLo25BS820L+ZlynzXHDxExKfCEaD10TZfe5XIc1vYNR0J74M2NmK IBgEDstJeW93ai+rHCFRXIevhpzU4GgGYJ1MeeOgbVMN3aGU1g6HfzMvtF0fPn8Y n6fsLZa43wgnoTdjwjjikpDTrzoZbaL1mbODBzBVPAaTbim7IKKTge6r/iCKrOjz Uixvm3g9lVzx52zidJ9kWa8esmbOM1j0EPe7/hy3qH9DFo87KxEzjHNH3T6gY5t6 NJhRAIfY+YyTHpPCUCshj6IkRudE6w/qjEAmKP9kWZxoJrvPCTWOhCzelwsFS9b9 gxEYfsnaKhsfNhB6fi0PtWlMzPINmEA7SuPza33u5WtQUK7s1iNlgHfvMbjstbwg MSETn4SG2/ZyzUrSC06lVwV8kh0RgM3cENc/jpFfIHD0vKGI3qfka/1RY94kcOCG AeJd0YRSU2RqL7lmxhHyG8tdb8eexns41IzbPCLXX2sF00eKNkVvMRYT2mKfKLFF q8v1x7yuwmODdXfFR6NdCkGm9IU7wtL6wuQ8Nhu9UraFmcXo6X6FLJC18FqcvSb9 jvcRP4XY/8pNjjf44JB8yWfah0xGQsaMIKQGP4yLv4j6Xk1xAQKH1MqcC7l1D2HN 5Z24GibFqSK/vA== =QaAN -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'x86-fsgsbase-2020-08-04' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull x86 fsgsbase from Thomas Gleixner: "Support for FSGSBASE.

RAPL driver), some new functionality in the existing drivers (eg. a
new switch to disable/enable CPU energy-efficiency optimizations in
intel_pstate, delayed timers in devfreq), some assorted fixes (cpufreq
core, intel_pstate, intel_idle) and cleanups (eg. cpuidle-psci,
devfreq), including the elimination of W=1 build warnings from cpufreq
done by Lee Jones.

powerpc/book3s64/radix: Add kernel command line option to disable radix GTSE
This adds a kernel command line option that can be used to disable GTSE support. Disabling GTSE implies kernel will make hcalls to invalidate TLB entries. This was done so that we can do VM migration between configs that enable/disable GTSE support via hypervisor. To migrate a VM from a system that supports GTSE to a system that doesn't, we can boot the guest with radix_hcall_invalidate=on, thereby forcing the guest to use hcalls for TLB invalidates. The check for hcall availability is done in pSeries_setup_arch so that the panic message appears on the console. This should only happen on a hypervisor that doesn't force the guest to hash translation even though it can't handle the radix GTSE=0 request via CAS. With radix_hcall_invalidate=on if the hypervisor doesn't support hcall_rpt_invalidate hcall it should force the LPAR to hash translation.

debugfs: Add access restriction option
Since debugfs include sensitive information it need to be treated carefully. But it also has many very useful debug functions for userspace. With this option we can have same configuration for system with need of debugfs and a way to turn it off. This gives a extra protection for exposure on systems where user-space services with system access are attacked. It is controlled by a configurable default value that can be override with a kernel command line parameter. (debugfs=) It can be on or off, but also internally on but not seen from user-space. This no-mount mode do not register a debugfs as filesystem, but client can register their parts in the internal structures. This data can be readed with a debugger or saved with a crashkernel. When it is off clients get EPERM error when accessing the functions for registering their components.

cpufreq: Specify default governor on command line
Currently, the only way to specify the default CPUfreq governor is via Kconfig options, which suits users who can build the kernel themselves perfectly. However, for those who use a distro-like kernel (such as Android, with the Generic Kernel Image project), the only way to use a non-default governor is to boot to userspace, and to then switch using the sysfs interface. Being able to specify the default governor on the command line, like is the case for cpuidle, would allow those users to specify their governor of choice earlier on, and to simplify the userspace boot procedure slighlty. To support this use-case, add a kernel command line parameter allowing the default governor for CPUfreq to be specified, which takes precedence over the built-in default. This implementation has one notable limitation: the default governor must be registered before the driver. This is solved for builtin governors and drivers using appropriate *_initcall() functions. And in the modular case, this must be reflected as a constraint on the module loading order.

rcu/tree: cache specified number of objects
In order to reduce the dynamic need for pages in kfree_rcu(), pre-allocate a configurable number of pages per CPU and link them in a list. When kfree_rcu() reclaims objects, the object's container page is cached into a list instead of being released to the low-level page allocator. Such an approach provides O(1) access to free pages while also reducing the number of requests to the page allocator. It also makes the kfree_rcu() code to have free pages available during a low memory condition. A read-only sysfs parameter (rcu_min_cached_objs) reflects the minimum number of allowed cached pages per CPU. Signed-off-by: Uladzislau Rezki (Sony) <urezki@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

Pull x86 srbds fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"The 9th episode of the dime novel "The performance killer" with the
subtitle "Slow Randomizing Boosts Denial of Service".
SRBDS is an MDS-like speculative side channel that can leak bits from
the random number generator (RNG) across cores and threads. New
microcode serializes the processor access during the execution of
RDRAND and RDSEED. This ensures that the shared buffer is overwritten
before it is released for reuse. This is equivalent to a full bus
lock, which means that many threads running the RNG instructions in
parallel have the same effect as the same amount of threads issuing a
locked instruction targeting an address which requires locking of two
cachelines at once.
The mitigation support comes with the usual pile of unpleasant
ingredients:
- command line options
- sysfs file
- microcode checks
- a list of vulnerable CPUs identified by model and stepping this
time which requires stepping match support for the cpu match logic.
- the inevitable slowdown of affected CPUs"

kernel/watchdog.c: convert {soft/hard}lockup boot parameters to sysctl aliases
After a recent change introduced by Vlastimil's series [0], kernel is
able now to handle sysctl parameters on kernel command line; also, the
series introduced a simple infrastructure to convert legacy boot
parameters (that duplicate sysctls) into sysctl aliases.
This patch converts the watchdog parameters softlockup_panic and
{hard,soft}lockup_all_cpu_backtrace to use the new alias infrastructure.
It fixes the documentation too, since the alias only accepts values 0 or
1, not the full range of integers.
We also took the opportunity here to improve the documentation of the
previously converted hung_task_panic (see the patch series [0]) and put
the alias table in alphabetical order.

kernel/sysctl: support setting sysctl parameters from kernel command line
Patch series "support setting sysctl parameters from kernel command line", v3. This series adds support for something that seems like many people always wanted but nobody added it yet, so here's the ability to set sysctl parameters via kernel command line options in the form of sysctl.vm.something=1 The important part is Patch 1. The second, not so important part is an attempt to clean up legacy one-off parameters that do the same thing as a sysctl. I don't want to remove them completely for compatibility reasons, but with generic sysctl support the idea is to remove the one-off param handlers and treat the parameters as aliases for the sysctl variants. I have identified several parameters that mention sysctl counterparts in Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt but there might be more. The conversion also has varying level of success: - numa_zonelist_order is converted in Patch 2 together with adding the necessary infrastructure. It's easy as it doesn't really do anything but warn on deprecated value these days. - hung_task_panic is converted in Patch 3, but there's a downside that now it only accepts 0 and 1, while previously it was any integer value - nmi_watchdog maps to two sysctls nmi_watchdog and hardlockup_panic, so there's no straighforward conversion possible - traceoff_on_warning is a flag without value and it would be required to handle that somehow in the conversion infractructure, which seems pointless for a single flag This patch (of 5): A recently proposed patch to add vm_swappiness command line parameter in addition to existing sysctl [1] made me wonder why we don't have a general support for passing sysctl parameters via command line. Googling found only somebody else wondering the same [2], but I haven't found any prior discussion with reasons why not to do this. Settings the vm_swappiness issue aside (the underlying issue might be solved in a different way), quick search of kernel-parameters.txt shows there are already some that exist as both sysctl and kernel parameter - hung_task_panic, nmi_watchdog, numa_zonelist_order, traceoff_on_warning. A general mechanism would remove the need to add more of those one-offs and might be handy in situations where configuration by e.g. /etc/sysctl.d/ is impractical. Hence, this patch adds a new parse_args() pass that looks for parameters prefixed by 'sysctl.' and tries to interpret them as writes to the corresponding sys/ files using an temporary in-kernel procfs mount. This mechanism was suggested by Eric W. Biederman [3], as it handles all dynamically registered sysctl tables, even though we don't handle modular sysctls. Errors due to e.g. invalid parameter name or value are reported in the kernel log. The processing is hooked right before the init process is loaded, as some handlers might be more complicated than simple setters and might need some subsystems to be initialized. At the moment the init process can be started and eventually execute a process writing to /proc/sys/ then it should be also fine to do that from the kernel. Sysctls registered later on module load time are not set by this mechanism - it's expected that in such scenarios, setting sysctl values from userspace is practical enough.

kernel: add panic_on_taint
Analogously to the introduction of panic_on_warn, this patch introduces a kernel option named panic_on_taint in order to provide a simple and generic way to stop execution and catch a coredump when the kernel gets tainted by any given flag. This is useful for debugging sessions as it avoids having to rebuild the kernel to explicitly add calls to panic() into the code sites that introduce the taint flags of interest. For instance, if one is interested in proceeding with a post-mortem analysis at the point a given code path is hitting a bad page (i.e. unaccount_page_cache_page(), or slab_bug()), a coredump can be collected by rebooting the kernel with 'panic_on_taint=0x20' amended to the command line. Another, perhaps less frequent, use for this option would be as a means for assuring a security policy case where only a subset of taints, or no single taint (in paranoid mode), is allowed for the running system. The optional switch 'nousertaint' is handy in this particular scenario, as it will avoid userspace induced crashes by writes to sysctl interface /proc/sys/kernel/tainted causing false positive hits for such policies.

hugetlbfs: clean up command line processing
With all hugetlb page processing done in a single file clean up code.
- Make code match desired semantics
- Update documentation with semantics
- Make all warnings and errors messages start with 'HugeTLB:'.
- Consistently name command line parsing routines.
- Warn if !hugepages_supported() and command line parameters have
been specified.
- Add comments to code
- Describe some of the subtle interactions
- Describe semantics of command line arguments
This patch also fixes issues with implicitly setting the number of
gigantic huge pages to preallocate. Previously on X86 command line,
hugepages=2 default_hugepagesz=1G
would result in zero 1G pages being preallocated and,
# grep HugePages_Total /proc/meminfo
HugePages_Total: 0
# sysctl -a | grep nr_hugepages
vm.nr_hugepages = 2
vm.nr_hugepages_mempolicy = 2
# cat /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages
2
After this patch 2 gigantic pages will be preallocated and all the proc,
sysfs, sysctl and meminfo files will accurately reflect this.
To address the issue with gigantic pages, a small change in behavior was
made to command line processing. Previously the command line,
hugepages=128 default_hugepagesz=2M hugepagesz=2M hugepages=256
would result in the allocation of 256 2M huge pages. The value 128 would
be ignored without any warning. After this patch, 128 2M pages will be
allocated and a warning message will be displayed indicating the value of
256 is ignored. This change in behavior is required because allocation of
implicitly specified gigantic pages must be done when the
default_hugepagesz= is encountered for gigantic pages. Previously the
code waited until later in the boot process (hugetlb_init), to allocate
pages of default size. However the bootmem allocator required for
gigantic allocations is not available at this time.

kgdb patches for 5.8-rc1
By far the biggest change in this cycle are the changes that allow much earlier debug of systems that are hooked up via UART by taking advantage of the earlycon framework to implement the kgdb I/O hooks before handing over to the regular polling I/O drivers once they are available.

X86 timer specific updates:
- Add TPAUSE based delay which allows the CPU to enter an optimized power
state while waiting for the delay to pass. The delay is based on TSC
cycles.
- Add tsc_early_khz command line parameter to workaround the problem that
overclocked CPUs can report the wrong frequency via CPUID.16h which
causes the refined calibration to fail because the delta to the initial
frequency value is too big. With the parameter users can provide an
halfways accurate initial value.

Documentation: kgdboc: Document new kgdboc_earlycon parameter
The recent patch ("kgdboc: Add kgdboc_earlycon to support early kgdb
using boot consoles") adds a new kernel command line parameter.
Document it.
Note that the patch adding the feature does some comparing/contrasting
of "kgdboc_earlycon" vs. the existing "ekgdboc". See that patch for
more details, but briefly "ekgdboc" can be used _instead_ of "kgdboc"
and just makes "kgdboc" do its normal initialization early (only works
if your tty driver is already ready). The new "kgdboc_earlycon" works
in combination with "kgdboc" and is backed by boot consoles.

x86/tsc: Add tsc_early_khz command line parameter
Changing base clock frequency directly impacts TSC Hz but not CPUID.16h
value. An overclocked CPU supporting CPUID.16h and with partial CPUID.15h
support will set TSC KHZ according to "best guess" given by CPUID.16h
relying on tsc_refine_calibration_work to give better numbers later.
tsc_refine_calibration_work will refuse to do its work when the outcome is
off the early TSC KHZ value by more than 1% which is certain to happen on
an overclocked system.
Fix this by adding a tsc_early_khz command line parameter that makes the
kernel skip early TSC calibration and use the given value instead.
This allows the user to provide the expected TSC frequency that is closer
to reality than the one reported by the hardware, enabling
tsc_refine_calibration_work to do meaningful error checking.
[ tglx: Made the variable __initdata as it's only used on init and
removed the error checking in the argument parser because
kstrto*() only stores to the variable if the string is valid ]

rcutorture: Add flag to produce non-busy-wait task stalls
This commit aids testing of RCU task stall warning messages by adding an rcutorture.stall_cpu_block module parameter that results in the induced stall sleeping within the RCU read-side critical section. Spinning with interrupts disabled is still available via the rcutorture.stall_cpu_irqsoff module parameter, and specifying neither of these two module parameters will spin with preemption disabled. Note that sleeping (as opposed to preemption) results in additional complaints from RCU at context-switch time, so yet more testing. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org> |

rcu-tasks: Provide boot parameter to delay IPIs until late in grace period
This commit provides a rcupdate.rcu_task_ipi_delay kernel boot parameter that specifies how old the RCU tasks trace grace period must be before the grace-period kthread starts sending IPIs. This delay allows more tasks to pass through rcu_tasks_qs() quiescent states, thus reducing (or even eliminating) the number of IPIs that must be sent. On a short rcutorture test setting this kernel boot parameter to HZ/2 resulted in zero IPIs for all 877 RCU-tasks trace grace periods that elapsed during that test. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

x86/setup: Add an initrdmem= option to specify initrd physical address
Add the initrdmem option: initrdmem=ss[KMG],nn[KMG] which is used to specify the physical address of the initrd, almost always an address in FLASH. Also add code for x86 to use the existing phys_init_start and phys_init_size variables in the kernel. This is useful in cases where a kernel and an initrd is placed in FLASH, but there is no firmware file system structure in the FLASH. One such situation occurs when unused FLASH space on UEFI systems has been reclaimed by, e.g., taking it from the Management Engine. For example, on many systems, the ME is given half the FLASH part; not only is 2.75M of an 8M part unused; but 10.75M of a 16M part is unused. This space can be used to contain an initrd, but need to tell Linux where it is. This space is "raw": due to, e.g., UEFI limitations: it can not be added to UEFI firmware volumes without rebuilding UEFI from source or writing a UEFI device driver. It can be referenced only as a physical address and size. At the same time, if a kernel can be "netbooted" or loaded from GRUB or syslinux, the option of not using the physical address specification should be available. Then, it is easy to boot the kernel and provide an initrd; or boot the the kernel and let it use the initrd in FLASH. In practice, this has proven to be very helpful when integrating Linux into FLASH on x86. Hence, the most flexible and convenient path is to enable the initrdmem command line option in a way that it is the last choice tried. For example, on the DigitalLoggers Atomic Pi, an image into FLASH can be burnt in with a built-in command line which includes: initrdmem=0xff968000,0x200000 which specifies a location and size.

x86/speculation: Add Special Register Buffer Data Sampling (SRBDS) mitigation
SRBDS is an MDS-like speculative side channel that can leak bits from the random number generator (RNG) across cores and threads. New microcode serializes the processor access during the execution of RDRAND and RDSEED. This ensures that the shared buffer is overwritten before it is released for reuse. While it is present on all affected CPU models, the microcode mitigation is not needed on models that enumerate ARCH_CAPABILITIES[MDS_NO] in the cases where TSX is not supported or has been disabled with TSX_CTRL. The mitigation is activated by default on affected processors and it increases latency for RDRAND and RDSEED instructions. Among other effects this will reduce throughput from /dev/urandom. * Enable administrator to configure the mitigation off when desired using either mitigations=off or srbds=off. * Export vulnerability status via sysfs * Rename file-scoped macros to apply for non-whitelist table initializations.

KVM/MIPS has been broken since 5.5, it does not compile due to a patch committed
by MIPS maintainers. I had already prepared a fix, but the MIPS maintainers
prefer to fix it in generic code rather than KVM so they are taking care of it.

PM: sleep: Add pm_debug_messages kernel command line option
Debug messages from the system suspend/hibernation infrastructure are disabled by default, and can only be enabled after the system has boot up via /sys/power/pm_debug_messages. This makes the hibernation resume hard to track as it involves system boot up across hibernation. There's no chance for software_resume() to track the resume process, for example. Add a kernel command line option to set pm_debug_messages during boot up. Signed-off-by: Chen Yu <yu.c.chen@intel.com> [ rjw: Subject & changelog ] Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

Pull SELinux updates from Paul Moore:
"We've got twenty SELinux patches for the v5.7 merge window, the
highlights are below:
- Deprecate setting /sys/fs/selinux/checkreqprot to 1.
This flag was originally created to deal with legacy userspace and
the READ_IMPLIES_EXEC personality flag. We changed the default from
1 to 0 back in Linux v4.4 and now we are taking the next step of
deprecating it, at some point in the future we will take the final
step of rejecting 1.
- Allow kernfs symlinks to inherit the SELinux label of the parent
directory. In order to preserve backwards compatibility this is
protected by the genfs_seclabel_symlinks SELinux policy capability.
- Optimize how we store filename transitions in the kernel, resulting
in some significant improvements to policy load times.
- Do a better job calculating our internal hash table sizes which
resulted in additional policy load improvements and likely general
SELinux performance improvements as well.
- Remove the unused initial SIDs (labels) and improve how we handle
initial SIDs.
- Enable per-file labeling for the bpf filesystem.
- Ensure that we properly label NFS v4.2 filesystems to avoid a
temporary unlabeled condition.
- Add some missing XFS quota command types to the SELinux quota
access controls.
- Fix a problem where we were not updating the seq_file position
index correctly in selinuxfs.
- We consolidate some duplicated code into helper functions.
- A number of list to array conversions.
- Update Stephen Smalley's email address in MAINTAINERS"

Support for "split lock" detection:
- Atomic operations (lock prefixed instructions) which span two cache
lines have to acquire the global bus lock. This is at least 1k cycles
slower than an atomic operation within a cache line and disrupts
performance on other cores. Aside of performance disruption this is
a unpriviledged form of DoS.
Some newer CPUs have the capability to raise an #AC trap when such an
operation is attempted. The detection is by default enabled in warning
mode which will warn once when a user space application is caught. A
command line option allows to disable the detection or to select fatal
mode which will terminate offending applications with SIGBUS.

Merge branch 'sched-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The main changes in this cycle are:
- Various NUMA scheduling updates: harmonize the load-balancer and
NUMA placement logic to not work against each other. The intended
result is better locality, better utilization and fewer migrations.
- Introduce Thermal Pressure tracking and optimizations, to improve
task placement on thermally overloaded systems.
- Implement frequency invariant scheduler accounting on (some) x86
CPUs. This is done by observing and sampling the 'recent' CPU
frequency average at ~tick boundaries. The CPU provides this data
via the APERF/MPERF MSRs. This hopefully makes our capacity
estimates more precise and keeps tasks on the same CPU better even
if it might seem overloaded at a lower momentary frequency. (As
usual, turbo mode is a complication that we resolve by observing
the maximum frequency and renormalizing to it.)
- Add asymmetric CPU capacity wakeup scan to improve capacity
utilization on asymmetric topologies. (big.LITTLE systems)
- PSI fixes and optimizations.
- RT scheduling capacity awareness fixes & improvements.
- Optimize the CONFIG_RT_GROUP_SCHED constraints code.
- Misc fixes, cleanups and optimizations - see the changelog for
details"

acpi/x86: add a kernel parameter to disable ACPI BGRT
BGRT is for displaying seamless OEM logo from booting to login screen; however, this mechanism does not always work well on all configurations and the OEM logo can be displayed multiple times. This looks worse than without BGRT enabled. This patch adds a kernel parameter to disable BGRT in boot time. This is easier than re-compiling a kernel with CONFIG_ACPI_BGRT disabled.

sched/fair: Enable tuning of decay period
Thermal pressure follows pelt signals which means the decay period for thermal pressure is the default pelt decay period. Depending on SoC characteristics and thermal activity, it might be beneficial to decay thermal pressure slower, but still in-tune with the pelt signals. One way to achieve this is to provide a command line parameter to set a decay shift parameter to an integer between 0 and 10.

driver core: Add fw_devlink kernel commandline option
fwnode_operations.add_links allows creating device links from information provided by firmware. fwnode_operations.add_links is currently implemented only by OF/devicetree code and a specific case of efi. However, there's nothing preventing ACPI or other firmware types from implementing it. The OF implementation is currently controlled by a kernel commandline parameter called of_devlink. Since this feature is generic isn't limited to OF, add a generic fw_devlink kernel commandline parameter to control this feature across firmware types.

torture: Allow disabling of boottime CPU-hotplug torture operations
In theory, RCU-hotplug operations are supposed to work as soon as there is more than one CPU online. However, in practice, in normal production there is no way to make them happen until userspace is up and running. Besides which, on smaller systems, rcutorture doesn't start doing hotplug operations until 30 seconds after the start of boot, which on most systems also means the better part of 30 seconds after the end of boot. This commit therefore provides a new torture.disable_onoff_at_boot kernel boot parameter that suppresses CPU-hotplug torture operations until about the time that init is spawned. Of course, if you know of a need for boottime CPU-hotplug operations, then you should avoid passing this argument to any of the torture tests. You might also want to look at the splats linked to below. Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20191206185208.GA25636@paulmck-ThinkPad-P72/ Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org> |

rcutorture: Allow boottime stall warnings to be suppressed
In normal production, an RCU CPU stall warning at boottime is often just as bad as at any other time. In fact, given the desire for fast boot, any sort of long-term stall at boot is a bad idea. However, heavy rcutorture testing on large hyperthreaded systems can generate boottime RCU CPU stalls as a matter of course. This commit therefore provides a kernel boot parameter that suppresses reporting of boottime RCU CPU stall warnings and similarly of rcutorture writer stalls. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

rcu: React to callback overload by aggressively seeking quiescent states
In default configutions, RCU currently waits at least 100 milliseconds before asking cond_resched() and/or resched_rcu() for help seeking quiescent states to end a grace period. But 100 milliseconds can be one good long time during an RCU callback flood, for example, as can happen when user processes repeatedly open and close files in a tight loop. These 100-millisecond gaps in successive grace periods during a callback flood can result in excessive numbers of callbacks piling up, unnecessarily increasing memory footprint. This commit therefore asks cond_resched() and/or resched_rcu() for help as early as the first FQS scan when at least one of the CPUs has more than 20,000 callbacks queued, a number that can be changed using the new rcutree.qovld kernel boot parameter. An auxiliary qovld_calc variable is used to avoid acquisition of locks that have not yet been initialized. Early tests indicate that this reduces the RCU-callback memory footprint during rcutorture floods by from 50% to 4x, depending on configuration.

x86/split_lock: Enable split lock detection by kernel
A split-lock occurs when an atomic instruction operates on data that spans
two cache lines. In order to maintain atomicity the core takes a global bus
lock.
This is typically >1000 cycles slower than an atomic operation within a
cache line. It also disrupts performance on other cores (which must wait
for the bus lock to be released before their memory operations can
complete). For real-time systems this may mean missing deadlines. For other
systems it may just be very annoying.
Some CPUs have the capability to raise an #AC trap when a split lock is
attempted.
Provide a command line option to give the user choices on how to handle
this:
split_lock_detect=
off - not enabled (no traps for split locks)
warn - warn once when an application does a
split lock, but allow it to continue
running.
fatal - Send SIGBUS to applications that cause split lock
On systems that support split lock detection the default is "warn". Note
that if the kernel hits a split lock in any mode other than "off" it will
OOPs.
One implementation wrinkle is that the MSR to control the split lock
detection is per-core, not per thread. This might result in some short
lived races on HT systems in "warn" mode if Linux tries to enable on one
thread while disabling on the other. Race analysis by Sean Christopherson:
- Toggling of split-lock is only done in "warn" mode. Worst case
scenario of a race is that a misbehaving task will generate multiple
#AC exceptions on the same instruction. And this race will only occur
if both siblings are running tasks that generate split-lock #ACs, e.g.
a race where sibling threads are writing different values will only
occur if CPUx is disabling split-lock after an #AC and CPUy is
re-enabling split-lock after *its* previous task generated an #AC.
- Transitioning between off/warn/fatal modes at runtime isn't supported
and disabling is tracked per task, so hardware will always reach a steady
state that matches the configured mode. I.e. split-lock is guaranteed to
be enabled in hardware once all _TIF_SLD threads have been scheduled out.

Documentation,selinux: deprecate setting checkreqprot to 1
Deprecate setting the SELinux checkreqprot tunable to 1 via kernel
parameter or /sys/fs/selinux/checkreqprot. Setting it to 0 is left
intact for compatibility since Android and some Linux distributions
do so for security and treat an inability to set it as a fatal error.
Eventually setting it to 0 will become a no-op and the kernel will
stop using checkreqprot's value internally altogether.
checkreqprot was originally introduced as a compatibility mechanism
for legacy userspace and the READ_IMPLIES_EXEC personality flag.
However, if set to 1, it weakens security by allowing mappings to be
made executable without authorization by policy. The default value
for the SECURITY_SELINUX_CHECKREQPROT_VALUE config option was changed
from 1 to 0 in commit

bootconfig: Only load bootconfig if "bootconfig" is on the kernel cmdline
As the bootconfig is appended to the initrd it is not as easy to modify as the kernel command line. If there's some issue with the kernel, and the developer wants to boot a pristine kernel, it should not be needed to modify the initrd to remove the bootconfig for a single boot. As bootconfig is silently added (if the admin does not know where to look they may not know it's being loaded). It should be explicitly added to the kernel cmdline. The loading of the bootconfig is only done if "bootconfig" is on the kernel command line. This will let admins know that the kernel command line is extended. Note, after adding printk()s for when the size is too great or the checksum is wrong, exposed that the current method always looked for the boot config, and if this size and checksum matched, it would parse it (as if either is wrong a printk has been added to show this). It's better to only check this if the boot config is asked to be looked for.

The affinity of managed interrupts is completely controlled by the

the interrupt could be routed to an isolated CPU which would then be
disturbed by I/O submitted by a housekeeping CPU.
The new mechamism ensures that as long as one housekeeping CPU is online
in the assigned affinity mask the interrupt is routed to a housekeeping
CPU.
If there is no online housekeeping CPU in the affinity mask, then the
interrupt is routed to an isolated CPU to keep the device queue intact,
but unless the isolated CPU submits I/O by itself these interrupts are
not raised.

rcuperf: Add kfree_rcu() performance Tests
This test runs kfree_rcu() in a loop to measure performance of the new kfree_rcu() batching functionality. The following table shows results when booting with arguments: rcuperf.kfree_loops=20000 rcuperf.kfree_alloc_num=8000 rcuperf.kfree_rcu_test=1 rcuperf.kfree_no_batch=X rcuperf.kfree_no_batch=X # Grace Periods Test Duration (s) X=1 (old behavior) 9133 11.5 X=0 (new behavior) 1732 12.5 On a 16 CPU system with the above boot parameters, we see that the total number of grace periods that elapse during the test drops from 9133 when not batching to 1732 when batching (a 5X improvement). The kfree_rcu() flood itself slows down a bit when batching, though, as shown. Note that the active memory consumption during the kfree_rcu() flood does increase to around 200-250MB due to the batching (from around 50MB without batching). However, this memory consumption is relatively constant. In other words, the system is able to keep up with the kfree_rcu() load. The memory consumption comes down considerably if KFREE_DRAIN_JIFFIES is increased from HZ/50 to HZ/80. A later patch will reduce memory consumption further by using multiple lists. Also, when running the test, please disable CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT and CONFIG_PROVE_RCU for realistic comparisons with/without batching.
