Building full dynticks now implies that all CPUs are forced
into RCU nocb mode through CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU_ALL.
The dynamic check has become useless.

When the watchdog runs, it prevents the full dynticks
CPUs from stopping their tick because the hard lockup
detector uses perf events internally, which in turn
rely on the periodic tick.
Since this is a rather confusing behaviour that is not
easy to track down and identify for those who want to
test CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL, let's default disable the
watchdog on boot time when full dynticks is enabled.
The user can still enable it later on runtime using
proc or sysctl.

We have two very conflicting state variable names in the
watchdog:
* watchdog_enabled: This one reflects the user interface. It's
set to 1 by default and can be overriden with boot options
or sysctl/procfs interface.
* watchdog_disabled: This is the internal toggle state that
tells if watchdog threads, timers and NMI events are currently
running or not. This state mostly depends on the user settings.
It's a convenient state latch.
Now we really need to find clearer names because those
are just too confusing to encourage deep review.
watchdog_enabled now becomes watchdog_user_enabled to reflect
its purpose as an interface.
watchdog_disabled becomes watchdog_running to suggest its
role as a pure internal state.

The user activation/deactivation of the watchdog through boot parameters
or systcl is currently implemented with a dance involving kthreads parking
and unparking methods: the threads are unconditionally registered on
boot and they park as soon as the user want the watchdog to be disabled.
This method involves a few noisy details to handle though: the watchdog
kthreads may be unparked anytime due to hotplug operations, after which
the watchdog internals have to decide to park again if it is user-disabled.
As a result the setup() and unpark() methods need to be able to request a
reparking. This is not currently supported in the kthread infrastructure
so this piece of the watchdog code only works halfway.
Besides, unparking/reparking the watchdog kthreads consume unnecessary
cputime on hotplug operations when those could be simply ignored in the
first place.
As suggested by Srivatsa, let's instead only register the watchdog
threads when they are needed. This way we don't need to think about
hotplug operations and we don't burden the CPU onlining when the watchdog
is simply disabled.

If the user configures NO_HZ_FULL and defines nohz_full=XXX on the
kernel command line, or enables NO_HZ_FULL_ALL, but nohz fails
due to the machine having a unstable clock, warn about it.
We do not want users thinking that they are getting the benefit
of nohz when their machine can not support it.

Pull VFS fixes from Al Viro:

can_lookup() back then)"
* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs:

|

exit_notify() does exit_task_namespaces() after
forget_original_parent(). This was needed to ensure that ->nsproxy
can't be cleared prematurely, an exiting child we are going to
reparent can do do_notify_parent() and use the parent's (ours) pid_ns.
However, after 32084504 "pidns: use task_active_pid_ns in
do_notify_parent" ->nsproxy != NULL is no longer needed, we rely
on task_active_pid_ns().
Move exit_task_namespaces() from exit_notify() to do_exit(), after
exit_fs() and before exit_task_work().
This solves the problem reported by Andrey, free_ipc_ns()->shm_destroy()
does fput() which needs task_work_add().
Note: this particular problem can be fixed if we change fput(), and
that change makes sense anyway. But there is another reason to move
the callsite. The original reason for exit_task_namespaces() from
the middle of exit_notify() was subtle and it has already gone away,
now this looks confusing. And this allows us do simplify exit_notify(),
we can avoid unlock/lock(tasklist) and we can use ->exit_state instead
of PF_EXITING in forget_original_parent().

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu
Pull RCU fixes from Paul McKenney:
"I must confess that this past merge window was not RCU's best showing.
This series contains three more fixes for RCU regressions:
1. A fix to __DECLARE_TRACE_RCU() that causes it to act as an
interrupt from idle rather than as a task switch from idle.
This change is needed due to the recent use of _rcuidle()
tracepoints that can be invoked from interrupt handlers as well
as from idle. Without this fix, invoking _rcuidle() tracepoints
from interrupt handlers results in splats and (more seriously)
confusion on RCU's part as to whether a given CPU is idle or not.
This confusion can in turn result in too-short grace periods and
therefore random memory corruption.
2. A fix to a subtle deadlock that could result due to RCU doing
a wakeup while holding one of its rcu_node structure's locks.
Although the probability of occurrence is low, it really
does happen. The fix, courtesy of Steven Rostedt, uses
irq_work_queue() to avoid the deadlock.
3. A fix to a silent deadlock (invisible to lockdep) due to the
interaction of timeouts posted by RCU debug code enabled by
CONFIG_PROVE_RCU_DELAY=y, grace-period initialization, and CPU
hotplug operations. This will not occur in production kernels,
but really does occur in randconfig testing. Diagnosis courtesy
of Steven Rostedt"

audit_add_tree_rule() must set 'rule->tree = NULL;' firstly, to protect
the rule itself freed in kill_rules().
The reason is when it is killed, the 'rule' itself may have already
released, we should not access it. one example: we add a rule to an
inode, just at the same time the other task is deleting this inode.
The work flow for adding a rule:
audit_receive() -> (need audit_cmd_mutex lock)
audit_receive_skb() ->
audit_receive_msg() ->
audit_receive_filter() ->
audit_add_rule() ->
audit_add_tree_rule() -> (need audit_filter_mutex lock)
...
unlock audit_filter_mutex
get_tree()
...
iterate_mounts() -> (iterate all related inodes)
tag_mount() ->
tag_trunk() ->
create_trunk() -> (assume it is 1st rule)
fsnotify_add_mark() ->
fsnotify_add_inode_mark() -> (add mark to inode->i_fsnotify_marks)
...
get_tree(); (each inode will get one)
...
lock audit_filter_mutex
The work flow for deleting an inode:
__destroy_inode() ->
fsnotify_inode_delete() ->
__fsnotify_inode_delete() ->
fsnotify_clear_marks_by_inode() -> (get mark from inode->i_fsnotify_marks)
fsnotify_destroy_mark() ->
fsnotify_destroy_mark_locked() ->
audit_tree_freeing_mark() ->
evict_chunk() ->
...
tree->goner = 1
...
kill_rules() -> (assume current->audit_context == NULL)

audit_free_rule()
...
audit_schedule_prune() -> (assume current->audit_context == NULL)
kthread_run() -> (need audit_cmd_mutex and audit_filter_mutex lock)

audit_log_start() does wait_for_auditd() in a loop until
audit_backlog_wait_time passes or audit_skb_queue has a room.
If signal_pending() is true this becomes a busy-wait loop, schedule() in
TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE won't block.
Thanks to Guy for fully investigating and explaining the problem.
(akpm: that'll cause the system to lock up on a non-preemptible
uniprocessor kernel)

The dmesg_restrict sysctl currently covers the syslog method for access
dmesg, however /dev/kmsg isn't covered by the same protections. Most
people haven't noticed because util-linux dmesg(1) defaults to using the
syslog method for access in older versions. With util-linux dmesg(1)
defaults to reading directly from /dev/kmsg.
To fix /dev/kmsg, let's compare the existing interfaces and what they
allow:
- /proc/kmsg allows:
- open (SYSLOG_ACTION_OPEN) if CAP_SYSLOG since it uses a destructive
single-reader interface (SYSLOG_ACTION_READ).
- everything, after an open.
- syslog syscall allows:
- anything, if CAP_SYSLOG.
- SYSLOG_ACTION_READ_ALL and SYSLOG_ACTION_SIZE_BUFFER, if
dmesg_restrict==0.
- nothing else (EPERM).
The use-cases were:
- dmesg(1) needs to do non-destructive SYSLOG_ACTION_READ_ALLs.
- sysklog(1) needs to open /proc/kmsg, drop privs, and still issue the
destructive SYSLOG_ACTION_READs.
AIUI, dmesg(1) is moving to /dev/kmsg, and systemd-journald doesn't
clear the ring buffer.
Based on the comments in devkmsg_llseek, it sounds like actions besides
reading aren't going to be supported by /dev/kmsg (i.e.
SYSLOG_ACTION_CLEAR), so we have a strict subset of the non-destructive
syslog syscall actions.
To this end, move the check as Josh had done, but also rename the
constants to reflect their new uses (SYSLOG_FROM_CALL becomes
SYSLOG_FROM_READER, and SYSLOG_FROM_FILE becomes SYSLOG_FROM_PROC).
SYSLOG_FROM_READER allows non-destructive actions, and SYSLOG_FROM_PROC
allows destructive actions after a capabilities-constrained
SYSLOG_ACTION_OPEN check.
- /dev/kmsg allows:
- open if CAP_SYSLOG or dmesg_restrict==0
- reading/polling, after open

We recently noticed that reboot of a 1024 cpu machine takes approx 16
minutes of just stopping the cpus. The slowdown was tracked to commit
f96972f2dc63 ("kernel/sys.c: call disable_nonboot_cpus() in
kernel_restart()").
The current implementation does all the work of hot removing the cpus
before halting the system. We are switching to just migrating to the
boot cpu and then continuing with shutdown/reboot.
This also has the effect of not breaking x86's command line parameter
for specifying the reboot cpu. Note, this code was shamelessly copied
from arch/x86/kernel/reboot.c with bits removed pertaining to the
reboot_cpu command line parameter.

There are instances in the kernel where we would like to disable CPU
hotplug (from sysfs) during some important operation. Today the freezer
code depends on this and the code to do it was kinda tailor-made for
that.
Restructure the code and make it generic enough to be useful for other
usecases too.

Pull tracing fix from Steven Rostedt:
"Yoshihiro Yunomae fixed a regression in the output format when using

trace instances tr->clock_id but the actual traces still used the
value from the obsolete global variable trace_clock_id"

tracing: Fix outputting formats of x86-tsc and counter when use trace_clock
|
|
Outputting formats of x86-tsc and counter should be a raw format, but after
applying the patch(2b6080f28c7cc3efc8625ab71495aae89aeb63a0), the format was
changed to nanosec. This is because the global variable trace_clock_id was used.
When we use multiple buffers, clock_id of each sub-buffer should be used. Then,
this patch uses tr->clock_id instead of the global variable trace_clock_id.
[ Basically, this fixes a regression where the multibuffer code changed the
trace_clock file to update tr->clock_id but the traces still use the old
global trace_clock_id variable, negating the file's effect. The global
trace_clock_id variable is obsolete and removed. - SR ]

The stop machine logic can lock up if all but one of the migration
threads make it through the disable-irq step and the one remaining
thread gets stuck in __do_softirq. The reason __do_softirq can hang is
that it has a bail-out based on jiffies timeout, but in the lockup case,
jiffies itself is not incremented.
To work around this, re-add the max_restart counter in __do_irq and stop
processing irqs after 10 restarts.
Thanks to Tejun Heo and Rusty Russell and others for helping me track
this down.
This was introduced in 3.9 by commit c10d73671ad3 ("softirq: reduce
latencies").
It may be worth looking into ath9k to see if it has issues with its irq
handler at a later date.

This commit breaks this deadlock cycle by substituting a shorter udelay()
for the previous schedule_timeout_uninterruptible(), while at the same
time increasing the probability of the delay. This maintains the intensity
of the testing.

This commit fixes a lockdep-detected deadlock by moving a wake_up()
call out from a rnp->lock critical section. Please see below for
the long version of this story.

Notice the above call chain.
rcu_start_future_gp() is called with the rnp->lock held. Then it calls
rcu_start_gp_advance, which does a wakeup.
You can't do wakeups while holding the rnp->lock, as that would mean
that you could not do a rcu_read_unlock() while holding the rq lock, or
any lock that was taken while holding the rq lock. This is because...

Notice the above trace.
perf took its own ctx->lock, which can be taken while holding the rq
lock. While holding this lock, it did a rcu_read_unlock(). The
perf_lock_task_context() basically looks like:
rcu_read_lock();
raw_spin_lock(ctx->lock);
rcu_read_unlock();
Now, what looks to have happened, is that we scheduled after taking that
first rcu_read_lock() but before taking the spin lock. When we scheduled
back in and took the ctx->lock, the following rcu_read_unlock()
triggered the "special" code.
The rcu_read_unlock_special() takes the rnp->lock, which gives us a
possible deadlock scenario.

Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
"This contains 4 fixes.
The first two fix the case where full RCU debugging is enabled,
enabling function tracing causes a live lock of the system. This is
due to the added debug checks in rcu_dereference_raw() that is used by
the function tracer. These checks are also traced by the function
tracer as well as cause enough overhead to the function tracer to slow
down the system enough that the time to finish an interrupt can take
longer than when the next interrupt is triggered, causing a live lock
from the timer interrupt.
Talking this over with Paul McKenney, we came up with a fix that adds
a new rcu_dereference_raw_notrace() that does not perform these added
checks, and let the function tracer use that.
The third commit fixes a failed compile when branch tracing is
enabled, due to the conversion of the trace_test_buffer() selftest
that the branch trace wasn't converted for.
The forth patch fixes a bug caught by the RCU lockdep code where a
rcu_read_lock() is performed when rcu is disabled (either going to or
from idle, or user space). This happened on the irqsoff tracer as it
calls task_uid(). The fix here was to use current_uid() when possible
that doesn't use rcu locking. Which luckily, is always used when
irqsoff calls this code."
* tag 'trace-fixes-v3.10-rc3-v3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace:
tracing: Use current_uid() for critical time tracing
tracing: Fix bad parameter passed in branch selftest
ftrace: Use the rcu _notrace variants for rcu_dereference_raw() and friends
rcu: Add _notrace variation of rcu_dereference_raw() and hlist_for_each_entry_rcu()
|
|
The irqsoff tracer records the max time that interrupts are disabled.
There are hooks in the assembly code that calls back into the tracer when
interrupts are disabled or enabled.
When they are enabled, the tracer checks if the amount of time they
were disabled is larger than the previous recorded max interrupts off
time. If it is, it creates a snapshot of the currently running trace
to store where the last largest interrupts off time was held and how
it happened.

What happened was entering into the user code, the interrupts were enabled
and a max interrupts off was recorded. The trace buffer was saved along with
various information about the task: comm, pid, uid, priority, etc.
The uid is recorded with task_uid(tsk). But this is a macro that uses rcu_read_lock()
to retrieve the data, and this happened to happen where RCU is blind (user_enter).
As only the preempt and irqs off tracers can have this happen, and they both
only have the tsk == current, if tsk == current, use current_uid() instead of
task_uid(), as current_uid() does not use RCU as only current can change its uid.
This fixes the RCU suspicious splat.

All self tests were changed but the branch selftest was missed.

As rcu_dereference_raw() under RCU debug config options can add quite a
bit of checks, and that tracing uses rcu_dereference_raw(), these checks
happen with the function tracer. The function tracer also happens to trace
these debug checks too. This added overhead can livelock the system.
Have the function tracer use the new RCU _notrace equivalents that do
not do the debug checks for RCU.

With the new __DEVEL__sane_behavior mount option was introduced,
if the root cgroup is alive with no xattr function, to mount a
new cgroup with xattr will be rejected in terms of design which
just fine. However, if the root cgroup does not mounted with
__DEVEL__sane_hehavior, to create a new cgroup with xattr option
will succeed although after that the EA function does not works
as expected but will get ENOTSUPP for setting up attributes under
either cgroup. e.g.
setfattr: /cgroup2/test: Operation not supported
Instead of keeping silence in this case, it's better to drop a log
entry in warning level. That would be helpful to understand the
reason behind the scene from the user's perspective, and this is
essentially an improvement does not break the backward compatibilities.
With this fix, above mount attemption will keep up works as usual but
the following line cound be found at the system log:
[ ...] cgroup: new mount options do not match the existing superblock
tj: minor formatting / message updates.

Since commit 31ade30692dc9680bfc95700d794818fa3f754ac, timekeeping_init()
checks for presence of persistent clock by attempting to read a non-zero
time value. This is an issue on platforms where persistent_clock (instead
is implemented as a free-running counter (instead of an RTC) starting
from zero on each boot and running during suspend. Examples are some ARM
platforms (e.g. PandaBoard).
An attempt to read such a clock during timekeeping_init() may return zero
value and falsely declare persistent clock as missing. Additionally, in
the above case suspend times may be accounted twice (once from
timekeeping_resume() and once from rtc_resume()), resulting in a gradual
drift of system time.
This patch does a run-time correction of the issue by doing the same check
during timekeeping_suspend().
A better long-term solution would have to return error when trying to read
non-existing clock and zero when trying to read an uninitialized clock, but
that would require changing all persistent_clock implementations.
This patch addresses the immediate breakage, for now.

Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
"Two more fixes:
The first one was reported by Mauro Carvalho Chehab, where if a poll()
is done against a trace buffer for a CPU that has never been online,
it will crash the kernel, as buffers are only created when a CPU comes
on line, but the trace files are for all possible CPUs.
This fix is to check if the buffer was allocated and if not return
-EINVAL.
That was the simple fix, the real fix is a bit more complex and not
for a -rc release. We could have the files created when the CPUs come
online. That would require some design changes.
The second one was reported by Peter Zijlstra. If the kernel command
line has ftrace=nop, it will lock up the system on boot up. This is
because the new design for 3.10 has the nop tracer bootstrap the
tracing subsystem. When ftrace=<trace> is defined, when a that tracer
is registered, it starts the tracing, but uses the nop tracer to clear
things out. What happened here was that ftrace=nop caused the
registering of nop to start it and use nop before it was initialized.
The only thing nop needs to have done to initialize it is to have the
tracer point its current_tracer structure member to the nop tracer.
Doing that before registering the nop tracer makes everything work."

The tracing infrastructure sets up for possible CPUs, but it uses

commit 26517f3e (tick: Avoid programming the local cpu timer if
broadcast pending) added a warning if the cpu enters broadcast mode
again while the pending bit is still set. Meelis reported that the
warning triggers. There are two corner cases which have been not
considered:
1) cpuidle calls clockevents_notify(CLOCK_EVT_NOTIFY_BROADCAST_ENTER)
twice. That can result in the following scenario
CPU0 CPU1
cpuidle_idle_call()
clockevents_notify(CLOCK_EVT_NOTIFY_BROADCAST_ENTER)
set cpu in tick_broadcast_oneshot_mask
broadcast interrupt
event expired for cpu1
set pending bit
acpi_idle_enter_simple()
clockevents_notify(CLOCK_EVT_NOTIFY_BROADCAST_ENTER)
WARN_ON(pending bit)
Move the WARN_ON into the section where we enter broadcast mode so
it wont provide false positives on the second call.
2) safe_halt() enables interrupts, so a broadcast interrupt can be
delivered befor the broadcast mode is disabled. That sets the
pending bit for the CPU which receives the broadcast
interrupt. Though the interrupt is delivered right away from the
broadcast handler and leaves the pending bit stale.
Clear the pending bit for the current cpu in the broadcast handler.

When cgroup_next_descendant_pre() initiates a walk, it checks whether
the subtree root doesn't have any children and if not returns NULL.
Later code assumes that the subtree isn't empty. This is broken
because the subtree may become empty inbetween, which can lead to the
traversal escaping the subtree by walking to the sibling of the
subtree root.
There's no reason to have the early exit path. Remove it along with
the later assumption that the subtree isn't empty. This simplifies
the code a bit and fixes the subtle bug.
While at it, fix the comment of cgroup_for_each_descendant_pre() which
was incorrectly referring to ->css_offline() instead of
->css_online().

If ftrace=<tracer> is on the kernel command line, when that tracer is
registered, it will be initiated by tracing_set_tracer() to execute that
tracer.
The nop tracer is just a stub tracer that is used to have no tracer
enabled. It is assigned at early bootup as it is the default tracer.
But if ftrace=nop is on the kernel command line, the registering of the
nop tracer will call tracing_set_tracer() which will try to execute
the nop tracer. But it expects tr->current_trace to be assigned something
as it usually is assigned to the nop tracer. As it hasn't been assigned
to anything yet, it causes the system to crash.
The simple fix is to move the tr->current_trace = nop before registering
the nop tracer. The functionality is still the same as the nop tracer
doesn't do anything anyway.

Instead of just picking data sections by name (names that start

- Fix unbalanced unlock in trylock failure path of manage_workers().
This shouldn't happen often in the wild but is possible.
- While making schedule_work() and friends inline, they become
unavailable to !GPL modules. Allow !GPL modules to access basic
stuff - system_wq and queue_*work_on() - so that schedule_work()
and friends can be used.
- During boot, the unbound NUMA support code allocates a cpumask for
each possible node using alloc_cpumask_var_node(), which ends up
trying to allocate node-specific memory even for offline nodes
triggering BUG in the memory alloc code. Use NUMA_NO_NODE for
offline nodes."

argv_split(empty_or_all_spaces) happily succeeds, it simply returns
argc == 0 and argv[0] == NULL. Change call_usermodehelper_exec() to
check sub_info->path != NULL to avoid the crash.
This is the minimal fix, todo:
- perhaps we should change argv_split() to return NULL or change the
callers.
- kill or justify ->path[0] check
- narrow the scope of helper_lock()

Since try_module_get() returns false( = 0) when it fails to
pindown a module, event_enable_func() returns 0 which means
"succeed". This can cause a kernel panic when the entry
is removed, because the event is already released.
This fixes the bug by returning -EBUSY, because the reason
why it fails is that the module is being removed at that time.

wq_numa_init()
wq_numa_init() builds per-node cpumasks which are later used to make
unbound workqueues NUMA-aware. The cpumasks are allocated using
alloc_cpumask_var_node() for all possible nodes. Unfortunately, on
machines with off-line nodes, this leads to NUMA-aware allocations on
existing bug offline nodes, which in turn triggers BUG in the memory
allocation code.
Fix it by using NUMA_NO_NODE for cpumask allocations for offline
nodes.
