commit 48fb6f4db9 upstream.
Commit 65d8fc777f ("futex: Remove requirement for lock_page() in
get_futex_key()") removed an unnecessary lock_page() with the
side-effect that page->mapping needed to be treated very carefully.
Two defensive warnings were added in case any assumption was missed and
the first warning assumed a correct application would not alter a
mapping backing a futex key. Since merging, it has not triggered for
any unexpected case but Mark Rutland reported the following bug
triggering due to the first warning.
kernel BUG at kernel/futex.c:679!

The fact that it's a bug instead of a warning was due to an unrelated
arm64 problem, but the warning itself triggered because the underlying
mapping changed.
This is an application issue but from a kernel perspective it's a
recoverable situation and the warning is unnecessary so this patch
removes the warning. The warning may potentially be triggered with the
following test program from Mark although it may be necessary to adjust
NR_FUTEX_THREADS to be a value smaller than the number of CPUs in the
system.

commit 0a94efb5ac upstream.
5c0338c687 ("workqueue: restore WQ_UNBOUND/max_active==1 to be
ordered") automatically enabled ordered attribute for unbound
workqueues w/ max_active == 1. Because ordered workqueues reject
max_active and some attribute changes, this implicit ordered mode
broke cases where the user creates an unbound workqueue w/ max_active
== 1 and later explicitly changes the related attributes.
This patch distinguishes explicit and implicit ordered setting and
overrides from attribute changes if implict.

commit 89affbf5d9 upstream.
In codepaths that use the begin/retry interface for reading
mems_allowed_seq with irqs disabled, there exists a race condition that
stalls the patch process after only modifying a subset of the
static_branch call sites.
This problem manifested itself as a deadlock in the slub allocator,
inside get_any_partial. The loop reads mems_allowed_seq value (via
read_mems_allowed_begin), performs the defrag operation, and then
verifies the consistency of mem_allowed via the read_mems_allowed_retry
and the cookie returned by xxx_begin.
The issue here is that both begin and retry first check if cpusets are
enabled via cpusets_enabled() static branch. This branch can be
rewritted dynamically (via cpuset_inc) if a new cpuset is created. The
x86 jump label code fully synchronizes across all CPUs for every entry
it rewrites. If it rewrites only one of the callsites (specifically the
one in read_mems_allowed_retry) and then waits for the
smp_call_function(do_sync_core) to complete while a CPU is inside the
begin/retry section with IRQs off and the mems_allowed value is changed,
we can hang.
This is because begin() will always return 0 (since it wasn't patched
yet) while retry() will test the 0 against the actual value of the seq
counter.
The fix is to use two different static keys: one for begin
(pre_enable_key) and one for retry (enable_key). In cpuset_inc(), we
first bump the pre_enable key to ensure that cpuset_mems_allowed_begin()
always return a valid seqcount if are enabling cpusets. Similarly, when
disabling cpusets via cpuset_dec(), we first ensure that callers of
cpuset_mems_allowed_retry() will start ignoring the seqcount value
before we let cpuset_mems_allowed_begin() return 0.

commit 5c0338c687 upstream.
The combination of WQ_UNBOUND and max_active == 1 used to imply
ordered execution. After NUMA affinity 4c16bd327c ("workqueue:
implement NUMA affinity for unbound workqueues"), this is no longer
true due to per-node worker pools.
While the right way to create an ordered workqueue is
alloc_ordered_workqueue(), the documentation has been misleading for a
long time and people do use WQ_UNBOUND and max_active == 1 for ordered
workqueues which can lead to subtle bugs which are very difficult to
trigger.
It's unlikely that we'd see noticeable performance impact by enforcing
ordering on WQ_UNBOUND / max_active == 1 workqueues. Let's
automatically set __WQ_ORDERED for those workqueues.

commit 7af608e4f9 upstream.
On subsystem registration, css_populate_dir() is not called on the new
root css, so the interface files for the subsystem on cgrp_dfl_root
aren't created on registration. This is a residue from the days when
cgrp_dfl_root was used only as the parking spot for unused subsystems,
which no longer is true as it's used as the root for cgroup2.
This is often fine as later operations tend to create them as a part
of mount (cgroup1) or subtree_control operations (cgroup2); however,
it's not difficult to mount cgroup2 with the controller interface
files missing as Waiman found out.
Fix it by invoking css_populate_dir() on the root css on subsys
registration.

commit 610467270f upstream.
Subsystem migration methods shouldn't be called for empty migrations.
cgroup_migrate_execute() implements this guarantee by bailing early if
there are no source css_sets. This used to be correct before
a79a908fd2 ("cgroup: introduce cgroup namespaces"), but no longer
since the commit because css_sets can stay pinned without tasks in
them.
This caused cgroup_migrate_execute() call into cpuset migration
methods with an empty cgroup_taskset. cpuset migration methods
correctly assume that cgroup_taskset_first() never returns NULL;
however, due to the bug, it can, leading to the following oops.

especially as the function has a return value and the callsite is prepared
to handle an error return.
Replace it with a WARN_ON_ONCE() and return a proper error code.

He analyzed correctly that a parked cpu hotplug thread of an offlined CPU
was still on the runqueue when the CPU came back online and tried to unpark
it. This causes the thread which invoked kthread_unpark() to call
wait_task_inactive() and subsequently schedule() with preemption disabled.
His proposed workaround was to "make sure" that a parked thread has
scheduled out when the CPU goes offline, so the situation cannot happen.
But that's still wrong because the root cause is not the fact that the
percpu thread is still on the runqueue and neither that preemption is
disabled, which could be simply solved by enabling preemption before
calling kthread_unpark().
The real issue is that the calling thread is the idle task of the upcoming
CPU, which is not supposed to call anything which might sleep. The moron,
who wrote that code, missed completely that kthread_unpark() might end up
in schedule().
The solution is simpler than expected. The thread which controls the
hotplug operation is waiting for the CPU to call complete() on the hotplug
state completion. So the idle task of the upcoming CPU can set its state to
CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_IDLE and invoke complete(). This in turn wakes the control
task on a different CPU, which then can safely do the unpark and kick the
now unparked hotplug thread of the upcoming CPU to complete the bringup to
the final target state.

commit 65a4433aeb upstream.
If load_balance() fails to migrate any tasks because all tasks were
affined, load_balance() removes the source CPU from consideration and
attempts to redo and balance among the new subset of CPUs.
There is a bug in this code path where the algorithm considers all active
CPUs in the system (minus the source that was just masked out). This is
not valid for two reasons: some active CPUs may not be in the current
scheduling domain and one of the active CPUs is dst_cpu. These CPUs should
not be considered, as we cannot pull load from them.
Instead of failing out of load_balance(), we may end up redoing the search
with no valid CPUs and incorrectly concluding the domain is balanced.
Additionally, if the group_imbalance flag was just set, it may also be
incorrectly unset, thus the flag will not be seen by other CPUs in future
load_balance() runs as that algorithm intends.
Fix the check by removing CPUs not in the current domain and the dst_cpu
from considertation, thus limiting the evaluation to valid remaining CPUs
from which load might be migrated.

commit 2a42eb9594 upstream.
Currently the cputime source used by vtime is jiffies. When we cross
a context boundary and jiffies have changed since the last snapshot, the
pending cputime is accounted to the switching out context.
This system works ok if the ticks are not aligned across CPUs. If they
instead are aligned (ie: all fire at the same time) and the CPUs run in
userspace, the jiffies change is only observed on tick exit and therefore
the user cputime is accounted as system cputime. This is because the
CPU that maintains timekeeping fires its tick at the same time as the
others. It updates jiffies in the middle of the tick and the other CPUs
see that update on IRQ exit:
CPU 0 (timekeeper) CPU 1
------------------- -------------
jiffies = N
... run in userspace for a jiffy
tick entry tick entry (sees jiffies = N)
set jiffies = N + 1
tick exit tick exit (sees jiffies = N + 1)
account 1 jiffy as stime
Fix this with using a nanosec clock source instead of jiffies. The
cputime is then accumulated and flushed everytime the pending delta
reaches a jiffy in order to mitigate the accounting overhead.
[ fweisbec: changelog, rebase on struct vtime, field renames, add delta
on cputime readers, keep idle vtime as-is (low overhead accounting),
harmonize clock sources. ]

> Count 1: 653373058
The root cause of the bug is that the following commit:
487f05e18a ("perf/core: Optimize event rescheduling on active contexts")
erronously assumed that event's 'pinned' setting determines whether the
event belongs to a pinned group or not, but in fact, it's the group
leader's pinned state that matters.
This was discovered by Vince in the test case described above, where two instruction
counters are grouped, the group leader is pinned, but the other event is not;
in the regressed case the counters were off by 33% (the difference between events'
periods), but should be the same within the error margin.
Fix the problem by looking at the group leader's pinning.

commit 73bb059f9b upstream.
The point of sched_group_mask is to select those CPUs from
sched_group_cpus that can actually arrive at this balance domain.
The current code gets it wrong, as can be readily demonstrated with a
topology like:
node 0 1 2 3
0: 10 20 30 20
1: 20 10 20 30
2: 30 20 10 20
3: 20 30 20 10
Where (for example) domain 1 on CPU1 ends up with a mask that includes
CPU0:
[] CPU1 attaching sched-domain:
[] domain 0: span 0-2 level NUMA
[] groups: 1 (mask: 1), 2, 0
[] domain 1: span 0-3 level NUMA
[] groups: 0-2 (mask: 0-2) (cpu_capacity: 3072), 0,2-3 (cpu_capacity: 3072)
This causes sched_balance_cpu() to compute the wrong CPU and
consequently should_we_balance() will terminate early resulting in
missed load-balance opportunities.
The fixed topology looks like:
[] CPU1 attaching sched-domain:
[] domain 0: span 0-2 level NUMA
[] groups: 1 (mask: 1), 2, 0
[] domain 1: span 0-3 level NUMA
[] groups: 0-2 (mask: 1) (cpu_capacity: 3072), 0,2-3 (cpu_capacity: 3072)
(note: this relies on OVERLAP domains to always have children, this is
true because the regular topology domains are still here -- this is
before degenerate trimming)

commit a0c4acd2c2 upstream.
If a writer could been woken up, the above branch
if (sem->count == 0)
break;
would have moved us to taking the sem. So, it's
not the time to wake a writer now, and only readers
are allowed now. Thus, 0 must be passed to __rwsem_do_wake().
Next, __rwsem_do_wake() wakes readers unconditionally.
But we mustn't do that if the sem is owned by writer
in the moment. Otherwise, writer and reader own the sem
the same time, which leads to memory corruption in
callers.
rwsem-xadd.c does not need that, as:
1) the similar check is made lockless there,
2) in __rwsem_mark_wake::try_reader_grant we test,
that sem is not owned by writer.

commit 8655d54977 upstream.
A customer has reported a soft-lockup when running an intensive
memory stress test, where the trace on multiple CPU's looks like this:
RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff810c53fe>]
[<ffffffff810c53fe>] native_queued_spin_lock_slowpath+0x10e/0x190
...
Call Trace:

[<ffffffff810adefe>] task_numa_work+0x1fe/0x310
[<ffffffff81098322>] task_work_run+0x72/0x90
Further investigation showed that the lock contention here is pmd_lock().
The task_numa_work() function makes sure that only one thread is let to perform
the work in a single scan period (via cmpxchg), but if there's a thread with
mmap_sem locked for writing for several periods, multiple threads in
task_numa_work() can build up a convoy waiting for mmap_sem for read and then
all get unblocked at once.
This patch changes the down_read() to the trylock version, which prevents the
build up. For a workload experiencing mmap_sem contention, it's probably better
to postpone the NUMA balancing work anyway. This seems to have fixed the soft
lockups involving pmd_lock(), which is in line with the convoy theory.

Leaking kernel addresses on unpriviledged is generally disallowed,
for example, verifier rejects the following:
0: (b7) r0 = 0
1: (18) r2 = 0xffff897e82304400
3: (7b) *(u64 *)(r1 +48) = r2
R2 leaks addr into ctx
Doing pointer arithmetic on them is also forbidden, so that they
don't turn into unknown value and then get leaked out. However,
there's xadd as a special case, where we don't check the src reg
for being a pointer register, e.g. the following will pass:
0: (b7) r0 = 0
1: (7b) *(u64 *)(r1 +48) = r0
2: (18) r2 = 0xffff897e82304400 ; map
4: (db) lock *(u64 *)(r1 +48) += r2
5: (95) exit
We could store the pointer into skb->cb, loose the type context,
and then read it out from there again to leak it eventually out
of a map value. Or more easily in a different variant, too:
0: (bf) r6 = r1
1: (7a) *(u64 *)(r10 -8) = 0
2: (bf) r2 = r10
3: (07) r2 += -8
4: (18) r1 = 0x0
6: (85) call bpf_map_lookup_elem#1
7: (15) if r0 == 0x0 goto pc+3
R0=map_value(ks=8,vs=8,id=0),min_value=0,max_value=0 R6=ctx R10=fp
8: (b7) r3 = 0
9: (7b) *(u64 *)(r0 +0) = r3
10: (db) lock *(u64 *)(r0 +0) += r6
11: (b7) r0 = 0
12: (95) exit
from 7 to 11: R0=inv,min_value=0,max_value=0 R6=ctx R10=fp
11: (b7) r0 = 0
12: (95) exit
Prevent this by checking xadd src reg for pointer types. Also
add a couple of test cases related to this.

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jikos/livepatching:
livepatch: Fix stacking of patches with respect to RCU
rcu_read_(un)lock(), list_*_rcu(), and synchronize_rcu() are used for a secure
access and manipulation of the list of patches that modify the same function.
In particular, it is the variable func_stack that is accessible from the ftrace
handler via struct ftrace_ops and klp_ops.
Of course, it synchronizes also some states of the patch on the top of the
stack, e.g. func->transition in klp_ftrace_handler.
At the same time, this mechanism guards also the manipulation of
task->patch_state. It is modified according to the state of the transition and
the state of the process.
Now, all this works well as long as RCU works well. Sadly livepatching might
get into some corner cases when this is not true. For example, RCU is not
watching when rcu_read_lock() is taken in idle threads. It is because they
might sleep and prevent reaching the grace period for too long.
There are ways how to make RCU watching even in idle threads, see
rcu_irq_enter(). But there is a small location inside RCU infrastructure when
even this does not work.
This small problematic location can be detected either before calling
rcu_irq_enter() by rcu_irq_enter_disabled() or later by rcu_is_watching().
Sadly, there is no safe way how to handle it. Once we detect that RCU was not
watching, we might see inconsistent state of the function stack and the related
variables in klp_ftrace_handler(). Then we could do a wrong decision, use an
incompatible implementation of the function and break the consistency of the
system. We could warn but we could not avoid the damage.
Fortunately, ftrace has similar problems and they seem to be solved well there.
It uses a heavy weight implementation of some RCU operations. In particular, it
replaces:
+ rcu_read_lock() with preempt_disable_notrace()
+ rcu_read_unlock() with preempt_enable_notrace()
+ synchronize_rcu() with schedule_on_each_cpu(sync_work)
My understanding is that this is RCU implementation from a stone age. It meets
the core RCU requirements but it is rather ineffective. Especially, it does not
allow to batch or speed up the synchronize calls.
On the other hand, it is very trivial. It allows to safely trace and/or
livepatch even the RCU core infrastructure. And the effectiveness is a not a
big issue because using ftrace or livepatches on productive systems is a rare
operation. The safety is much more important than a negligible extra load.
Note that the alternative implementation follows the RCU principles. Therefore,
we could and actually must use list_*_rcu() variants when manipulating the
func_stack. These functions allow to access the pointers in the right
order and with the right barriers. But they do not use any other
information that would be set only by rcu_read_lock().
Also note that there are actually two problems solved in ftrace:
First, it cares about the consistency of RCU read sections. It is being solved
the way as described and used in this patch.
Second, ftrace needs to make sure that nobody is inside the dynamic trampoline
when it is being freed. For this, it also calls synchronize_rcu_tasks() in
preemptive kernel in ftrace_shutdown().
Livepatch has similar problem but it is solved by ftrace for free.
klp_ftrace_handler() is a good guy and never sleeps. In addition, it is
registered with FTRACE_OPS_FL_DYNAMIC. It causes that
unregister_ftrace_function() calls:
* schedule_on_each_cpu(ftrace_sync) - always
* synchronize_rcu_tasks() - in preemptive kernel
The effect is that nobody is neither inside the dynamic trampoline nor inside
the ftrace handler after unregister_ftrace_function() returns.

Due to how the MONOTONIC_RAW accumulation logic was handled,
there is the potential for a 1ns discontinuity when we do
accumulations. This small discontinuity has for the most part
gone un-noticed, but since ARM64 enabled CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW
in their vDSO clock_gettime implementation, we've seen failures
with the inconsistency-check test in kselftest.
This patch addresses the issue by using the same sub-ns
accumulation handling that CLOCK_MONOTONIC uses, which avoids
the issue for in-kernel users.
Since the ARM64 vDSO implementation has its own clock_gettime
calculation logic, this patch reduces the frequency of errors,
but failures are still seen. The ARM64 vDSO will need to be
updated to include the sub-nanosecond xtime_nsec values in its
calculation for this issue to be completely fixed.
