The bpf helpers bpf_this_cpu_ptr() and bpf_per_cpu_ptr() are re-purposed
for allocated percpu objects. For an allocated percpu obj,
the reg type is 'PTR_TO_BTF_ID | MEM_PERCPU | MEM_RCU'.
The return type for these two re-purposed helpera is
'PTR_TO_MEM | MEM_RCU | MEM_ALLOC'.
The MEM_ALLOC allows that the per-cpu data can be read and written.
Since the memory allocator bpf_mem_alloc() returns
a ptr to a percpu ptr for percpu data, the first argument
of bpf_this_cpu_ptr() and bpf_per_cpu_ptr() is patched
with a dereference before passing to the helper func.

Add two new kfunc's, bpf_percpu_obj_new_impl() and
bpf_percpu_obj_drop_impl(), to allocate a percpu obj.
Two functions are very similar to bpf_obj_new_impl()
and bpf_obj_drop_impl(). The major difference is related
to percpu handling.
bpf_rcu_read_lock()
struct val_t __percpu_kptr *v = map_val->percpu_data;
...
bpf_rcu_read_unlock()
For a percpu data map_val like above 'v', the reg->type
is set as
PTR_TO_BTF_ID | MEM_PERCPU | MEM_RCU
if inside rcu critical section.
MEM_RCU marking here is similar to NON_OWN_REF as 'v'
is not a owning reference. But NON_OWN_REF is
trusted and typically inside the spinlock while
MEM_RCU is under rcu read lock. RCU is preferred here
since percpu data structures mean potential concurrent
access into its contents.
Also, bpf_percpu_obj_new_impl() is restricted such that
no pointers or special fields are allowed. Therefore,
the bpf_list_head and bpf_rb_root will not be supported
in this patch set to avoid potential memory leak issue
due to racing between bpf_obj_free_fields() and another
bpf_kptr_xchg() moving an allocated object to
bpf_list_head and bpf_rb_root.

BPF_KPTR_PERCPU represents a percpu field type like below
struct val_t {
... fields ...
};
struct t {
...
struct val_t __percpu_kptr *percpu_data_ptr;
...
};
where
#define __percpu_kptr __attribute__((btf_type_tag("percpu_kptr")))
While BPF_KPTR_REF points to a trusted kernel object or a trusted
local object, BPF_KPTR_PERCPU points to a trusted local
percpu object.
This patch added basic support for BPF_KPTR_PERCPU
related to percpu_kptr field parsing, recording and free operations.
BPF_KPTR_PERCPU also supports the same map types
as BPF_KPTR_REF does.
Note that unlike a local kptr, it is possible that
a BPF_KTPR_PERCPU struct may not contain any
special fields like other kptr, bpf_spin_lock, bpf_list_head, etc.

When user resize all trace ring buffer through file 'buffer_size_kb',
then in ring_buffer_resize(), kernel allocates buffer pages for each
cpu in a loop.
If the kernel preemption model is PREEMPT_NONE and there are many cpus
and there are many buffer pages to be allocated, it may not give up cpu
for a long time and finally cause a softlockup.
To avoid it, call cond_resched() after each cpu buffer allocation.

The bpf_prog_pack allocator currently uses module_alloc() and
module_memfree() to allocate and free memory. This is not portable
because different architectures use different methods for allocating
memory for BPF programs. Like ARM64 and riscv use vmalloc()/vfree().
Use bpf_jit_alloc_exec() and bpf_jit_free_exec() for memory management
in bpf_prog_pack allocator. Other architectures can override these with
their implementation and will be able to use bpf_prog_pack directly.
On architectures that don't override bpf_jit_alloc/free_exec() this is
basically a NOP.

The commit c83597fa5d ("bpf: Refactor some inode/task/sk storage functions
for reuse"), refactored the bpf_{sk,task,inode}_storage_free() into
bpf_local_storage_unlink_nolock() which then later renamed to
bpf_local_storage_destroy(). The commit accidentally passed the
"bool uncharge_mem = false" argument to bpf_selem_unlink_storage_nolock()
which then stopped the uncharge from happening to the sk->sk_omem_alloc.
This missing uncharge only happens when the sk is going away (during
__sk_destruct).
This patch fixes it by always passing "uncharge_mem = true". It is a
noop to the task/inode/cgroup storage because they do not have the
map_local_storage_(un)charge enabled in the map_ops. A followup patch
will be done in bpf-next to remove the uncharge_mem argument.
A selftest is added in the next patch.

It complains about acquiring a local_lock while holding a raw_spin_lock.
It means it should not allocate memory while holding a raw_spin_lock
since it is not safe for RT.
raw_spin_lock is needed because bpf_local_storage supports tracing
context. In particular for task local storage, it is easy to
get a "current" task PTR_TO_BTF_ID in tracing bpf prog.
However, task (and cgroup) local storage has already been moved to
bpf mem allocator which can be used after raw_spin_lock.
The splat is for the sk storage. For sk (and inode) storage,
it has not been moved to bpf mem allocator. Using raw_spin_lock or not,
kzalloc(GFP_ATOMIC) could theoretically be unsafe in tracing context.
However, the local storage helper requires a verifier accepted
sk pointer (PTR_TO_BTF_ID), it is hypothetical if that (mean running
a bpf prog in a kzalloc unsafe context and also able to hold a verifier
accepted sk pointer) could happen.
This patch avoids kzalloc after raw_spin_lock to silent the splat.
There is an existing kzalloc before the raw_spin_lock. At that point,
a kzalloc is very likely required because a lookup has just been done
before. Thus, this patch always does the kzalloc before acquiring
the raw_spin_lock and remove the later kzalloc usage after the
raw_spin_lock. After this change, it will have a charge and then
uncharge during the syscall bpf_map_update_elem() code path.
This patch opts for simplicity and not continue the old
optimization to save one charge and uncharge.
This issue is dated back to the very first commit of bpf_sk_storage
which had been refactored multiple times to create task, inode, and
cgroup storage. This patch uses a Fixes tag with a more recent
commit that should be easier to do backport.

__bpf_prog_enter_sleepable_recur() assigns bpf_tramp_run_ctx::saved_run_ctx

__bpf_prog_exit_sleepable_recur() uses an uninitialized value. This does not

isn't initialized upfront.
Align __bpf_prog_enter_sleepable_recur() with __bpf_prog_enter_recur() and

If __bpf_prog_enter_sleepable_recur() detects recursion then it returns
0 without undoing rcu_read_lock_trace(), migrate_disable() or
decrementing the recursion counter. This is fine in the JIT case because
the JIT code will jump in the 0 case to the end and invoke the matching
exit trampoline (__bpf_prog_exit_sleepable_recur()).
This is not the case in kern_sys_bpf() which returns directly to the
caller with an error code.
Add __bpf_prog_exit_sleepable_recur() as clean up in the recursion case.

Sudip Mukherjee reports that the mips sb1250_swarm_defconfig build fails
with the current kernel. It isn't actually MIPS-specific, it's just
that that defconfig does not have CGROUP_SCHED enabled like most configs
do, and as such shows this error:
kernel/cgroup/cgroup.c: In function 'cgroup_local_stat_show':
kernel/cgroup/cgroup.c:3699:15: error: implicit declaration of function 'cgroup_tryget_css'; did you mean 'cgroup_tryget'? [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
3699 | css = cgroup_tryget_css(cgrp, ss);

3699 | css = cgroup_tryget_css(cgrp, ss);
| ^
because cgroup_tryget_css() only exists when CGROUP_SCHED is enabled,
and the cgroup_local_stat_show() function should similarly be guarded by
that config option.
Move things around a bit to fix this all.

should_we_balance() is called in load_balance() to find out if the CPU that
is trying to do the load balance is the right one or not.
With commit:
b1bfeab9b002("sched/fair: Consider the idle state of the whole core for load balance")
the code tries to find an idle core to do the load balancing
and falls back on an idle sibling CPU if there is no idle core.
However, on larger SMT systems, it could be needlessly iterating to find a
idle by scanning all the CPUs in an non-idle core. If the core is not idle,
and first SMT sibling which is idle has been found, then its not needed to
check other SMT siblings for idleness
Lets say in SMT4, Core0 has 0,2,4,6 and CPU0 is BUSY and rest are IDLE.
balancing domain is MC/DIE. CPU2 will be set as the first idle_smt and
same process would be repeated for CPU4 and CPU6 but this is unnecessary.
Since calling is_core_idle loops through all CPU's in the SMT mask, effect
is multiplied by weight of smt_mask. For example,when say 1 CPU is busy,
we would skip loop for 2 CPU's and skip iterating over 8CPU's. That
effect would be more in DIE/NUMA domain where there are more cores.
Testing and performance evaluation
==================================
The test has been done on this system which has 12 cores, i.e 24 small
cores with SMT=4:
lscpu
Architecture: ppc64le
Byte Order: Little Endian
CPU(s): 96
On-line CPU(s) list: 0-95
Model name: POWER10 (architected), altivec supported
Thread(s) per core: 8
Used funclatency bcc tool to evaluate the time taken by should_we_balance(). For
base tip/sched/core the time taken is collected by making the
should_we_balance() noinline. time is in nanoseconds. The values are
collected by running the funclatency tracer for 60 seconds. values are
average of 3 such runs. This represents the expected reduced time with
patch.

and no core is idle. Decent improvement with 100% utilization case. no

The pipe cpumask used to serialize opens between the main and percpu
trace pipes is not zeroed or initialized. This can result in
spurious -EBUSY returns if underlying memory is not fully zeroed.
This has been observed by immediate failure to read the main
trace_pipe file on an otherwise newly booted and idle system:
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_pipe
cat: /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_pipe: Device or resource busy
Zero the allocation of pipe_cpumask to avoid the problem.

It is because the race between writing event into cpu buffer and swapping
cpu buffer through file per_cpu/cpu0/snapshot:

rb_commit(cpu_buffer)
rb_end_commit() // 6. WARN for the wrong 'committing' state !!!
Based on above analysis, we can easily reproduce by following testcase:
``` bash
#!/bin/bash
dmesg -n 7
sysctl -w kernel.panic_on_warn=1
TR=/sys/kernel/tracing
echo 7 > ${TR}/buffer_size_kb
echo "sched:sched_switch" > ${TR}/set_event
while [ true ]; do
echo 1 > ${TR}/per_cpu/cpu0/snapshot
done &
while [ true ]; do
echo 1 > ${TR}/per_cpu/cpu0/snapshot
done &
while [ true ]; do
echo 1 > ${TR}/per_cpu/cpu0/snapshot
done &
```
To fix it, IIUC, we can use smp_call_function_single() to do the swap on
the target cpu where the buffer is located, so that above race would be
avoided.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
"User visible changes:
- Added a way to easier filter with cpumasks:
# echo 'cpumask & CPUS{17-42}' > /sys/kernel/tracing/events/ipi_send_cpumask/filter
- Show actual size of ring buffer after modifying the ring buffer
size via buffer_size_kb.
Currently it just returns what was written, but the actual size
rounds up to the sub buffer size. Show that real size instead.
Major changes:
- Added "eventfs". This is the code that handles the inodes and
dentries of tracefs/events directory. As there are thousands of
events, and each event has several inodes and dentries that
currently exist even when tracing is never used, they take up
precious memory. Instead, eventfs will allocate the inodes and
dentries in a JIT way (similar to what procfs does). There is now
metadata that handles the events and subdirectories, and will
create the inodes and dentries when they are used.
Note, I also have patches that remove the subdirectory meta data,
but will wait till the next merge window before applying them. It's
a little more complex, and I want to make sure the dynamic code
works properly before adding more complexity, making it easier to
revert if need be.
Minor changes:
- Optimization to user event list traversal
- Remove intermediate permission of tracefs files (note the
intermediate permission removes all access to the files so it is
not a security concern, but just a clean up)
- Add the complex fix to FORTIFY_SOURCE to the kernel stack event
logic
- Other minor cleanups"

Pull workqueue updates from Tejun Heo:
- Unbound workqueues now support more flexible affinity scopes.
The default behavior is to soft-affine according to last level cache
boundaries. A work item queued from a given LLC is executed by a
worker running on the same LLC but the worker may be moved across
cache boundaries as the scheduler sees fit. On machines which
multiple L3 caches, which are becoming more popular along with
chiplet designs, this improves cache locality while not harming work
conservation too much.
Unbound workqueues are now also a lot more flexible in terms of
execution affinity. Differeing levels of affinity scopes are
supported and both the default and per-workqueue affinity settings
can be modified dynamically. This should help working around amny of
sub-optimal behaviors observed recently with asymmetric ARM CPUs.
This involved signficant restructuring of workqueue code. Nothing was
reported yet but there's some risk of subtle regressions. Should keep
an eye out.
- Rescuer workers now has more identifiable comms.
- workqueue.unbound_cpus added so that CPUs which can be used by
workqueue can be constrained early during boot.
- Now that all the in-tree users have been flushed out, trigger warning
if system-wide workqueues are flushed.

Pull percpu updates from Dennis Zhou:
"One bigger change to percpu_counter's api allowing for init and
destroy of multiple counters via percpu_counter_init_many() and
percpu_counter_destroy_many(). This is used to help begin remediating
a performance regression with percpu rss stats.
Additionally, it seems larger core count machines are feeling the
burden of the single threaded allocation of percpu. Mateusz is
thinking about it and I will spend some time on it too.
percpu:
- A couple cleanups by Baoquan He and Bibo Mao. The only behavior
change is to start printing messages if we're under the warn limit
for failed atomic allocations.
percpu_counter:
- Shakeel introduced percpu counters into mm_struct which caused
percpu allocations be on the hot path [1]. Originally I spent some
time trying to improve the percpu allocator, but instead preferred
what Mateusz Guzik proposed grouping at the allocation site,
percpu_counter_init_many(). This allows a single percpu allocation
to be shared by the counters. I like this approach because it
creates a shared lifetime by the allocations. Additionally, I
believe many inits have higher level synchronization requirements,
like percpu_counter does against HOTPLUG_CPU. Therefore we can

Pull tty/serial driver updates from Greg KH:
"Here is the big set of tty and serial driver changes for 6.6-rc1.
Lots of cleanups in here this cycle, and some driver updates. Short
summary is:
- Jiri's continued work to make the tty code and apis be a bit more
sane with regards to modern kernel coding style and types
- cpm_uart driver updates
- n_gsm updates and fixes
- meson driver updates
- sc16is7xx driver updates
- 8250 driver updates for different hardware types
- qcom-geni driver fixes
- tegra serial driver change
- stm32 driver updates
- synclink_gt driver cleanups
- tty structure size reduction
All of these have been in linux-next this week with no reported
issues. The last bit of cleanups from Jiri and the tty structure size
reduction came in last week, a bit late but as they were just style
changes and size reductions, I figured they should get into this merge
cycle so that others can work on top of them with no merge conflicts"

Pull x86 shadow stack support from Dave Hansen:
"This is the long awaited x86 shadow stack support, part of Intel's
Control-flow Enforcement Technology (CET).
CET consists of two related security features: shadow stacks and
indirect branch tracking. This series implements just the shadow stack
part of this feature, and just for userspace.
The main use case for shadow stack is providing protection against
return oriented programming attacks. It works by maintaining a
secondary (shadow) stack using a special memory type that has
protections against modification. When executing a CALL instruction,
the processor pushes the return address to both the normal stack and
to the special permission shadow stack. Upon RET, the processor pops
the shadow stack copy and compares it to the normal stack copy.
For more information, refer to the links below for the earlier
versions of this patch set"

Resetting rules' stateful data happens outside of the transaction logic,
so 'get' and 'dump' handlers have to emit audit log entries themselves.

Since set element reset is not integrated into nf_tables' transaction
logic, an explicit log call is needed, similar to NFT_MSG_GETOBJ_RESET
handling.
For the sake of simplicity, catchall element reset will always generate
a dedicated log entry. This relieves nf_tables_dump_set() from having to
adjust the logged element count depending on whether a catchall element
was found or not.

Pull integrity subsystem updates from Mimi Zohar:
- With commit 099f26f22f ("integrity: machine keyring CA
configuration") certificates may be loaded onto the IMA keyring,
directly or indirectly signed by keys on either the "builtin" or the
"machine" keyrings.
With the ability for the system/machine owner to sign the IMA policy
itself without needing to recompile the kernel, update the IMA
architecture specific policy rules to require the IMA policy itself
be signed.
[ As commit 099f26f22f was upstreamed in linux-6.4, updating the
IMA architecture specific policy now to require signed IMA policies
may break userspace expectations. ]
- IMA only checked the file data hash was not on the system blacklist
keyring for files with an appended signature (e.g. kernel modules,
Power kernel image).
Check all file data hashes regardless of how it was signed
- Code cleanup, and a kernel-doc update
