Users with SYS_ADMIN capability can add arbitrary taint flags to the
running kernel by writing to /proc/sys/kernel/tainted or issuing the
command 'sysctl -w kernel.tainted=...'. This interface, however, is
open for any integer value and this might cause an invalid set of flags
being committed to the tainted_mask bitset.
This patch introduces a simple way for proc_taint() to ignore any
eventual invalid bit coming from the user input before committing those
bits to the kernel tainted_mask.

Usually when the kernel reaches an oops condition, it's a point of no
return; in case not enough debug information is available in the kernel
splat, one of the last resorts would be to collect a kernel crash dump
and analyze it. The problem with this approach is that in order to
collect the dump, a panic is required (to kexec-load the crash kernel).
When in an environment of multiple virtual machines, users may prefer to
try living with the oops, at least until being able to properly shutdown
their VMs / finish their important tasks.
This patch implements a way to collect a bit more debug details when an
oops event is reached, by printing all the CPUs backtraces through the
usage of NMIs (on architectures that support that). The sysctl added
(and documented) here was called "oops_all_cpu_backtrace", and when set
will (as the name suggests) dump all CPUs backtraces.
Far from ideal, this may be the last option though for users that for
some reason cannot panic on oops. Most of times oopses are clear enough
to indicate the kernel portion that must be investigated, but in virtual
environments it's possible to observe hypervisor/KVM issues that could
lead to oopses shown in other guests CPUs (like virtual APIC crashes).
This patch hence aims to help debug such complex issues without
resorting to kdump.

Commit 401c636a0eeb ("kernel/hung_task.c: show all hung tasks before
panic") introduced a change in that we started to show all CPUs
backtraces when a hung task is detected _and_ the sysctl/kernel
parameter "hung_task_panic" is set. The idea is good, because usually
when observing deadlocks (that may lead to hung tasks), the culprit is
another task holding a lock and not necessarily the task detected as
hung.
The problem with this approach is that dumping backtraces is a slightly
expensive task, specially printing that on console (and specially in
many CPU machines, as servers commonly found nowadays). So, users that
plan to collect a kdump to investigate the hung tasks and narrow down
the deadlock definitely don't need the CPUs backtrace on dmesg/console,
which will delay the panic and pollute the log (crash tool would easily
grab all CPUs traces with 'bt -a' command).
Also, there's the reciprocal scenario: some users may be interested in
seeing the CPUs backtraces but not have the system panic when a hung
task is detected. The current approach hence is almost as embedding a
policy in the kernel, by forcing the CPUs backtraces' dump (only) on
hung_task_panic.
This patch decouples the panic event on hung task from the CPUs
backtraces dump, by creating (and documenting) a new sysctl called
"hung_task_all_cpu_backtrace", analog to the approach taken on soft/hard
lockups, that have both a panic and an "all_cpu_backtrace" sysctl to
allow individual control. The new mechanism for dumping the CPUs
backtraces on hung task detection respects "hung_task_warnings" by not
dumping the traces in case there's no warnings left.

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.

Testing is done by a new parameter debug.test_sysctl.boot_int which
defaults to 0 and it's expected that the tester passes a boot parameter
that sets it to 1. The test checks if it's set to 1.
To distinguish true failure from parameter not being set, the test
checks /proc/cmdline for the expected parameter, and whether test_sysctl
is built-in and not a module.

We can now handle sysctl parameters on kernel command line and have
infrastructure to convert legacy command line options that duplicate
sysctl to become a sysctl alias.
This patch converts the hung_task_panic parameter. Note that the sysctl
handler is more strict and allows only 0 and 1, while the legacy
parameter allowed any non-zero value. But there is little reason anyone
would not be using 1.

We can now handle sysctl parameters on kernel command line, but
historically some parameters introduced their own command line
equivalent, which we don't want to remove for compatibility reasons.
We can, however, convert them to the generic infrastructure with a table
translating the legacy command line parameters to their sysctl names,
and removing the one-off param handlers.
This patch adds the support and makes the first conversion to
demonstrate it, on the (deprecated) numa_zonelist_order parameter.

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.

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.

Instead of enabling dynamic debug globally with CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG,
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CORE will only enable core function of dynamic
debug. With the DYNAMIC_DEBUG_MODULE defined for any modules, dynamic
debug will be tied to them.
This is useful for people who only want to enable dynamic debug for
kernel modules without worrying about kernel image size and memory
consumption is increasing too much.

posix_acl_permission() does not care about MAY_NOT_BLOCK, and in fact
the permission logic internally must not check that bit (it's only for
upper layers to decide whether they can block to do IO to look up the
acl information or not).
But the way the code was written, it _looked_ like it cared, since the
function explicitly did not mask that bit off.
But it has exactly two callers: one for when that bit is set, which
first clears the bit before calling posix_acl_permission(), and the
other call site when that bit was clear.
So stop the silly games "saving" the MAY_NOT_BLOCK bit that must not be
used for the actual permission test, and that currently is pointlessly
cleared by the callers when the function itself should just not care.

Rasmus Villemoes points out that the 'in_group_p()' tests can be a
noticeable expense, and often completely unnecessary. A common
situation is that the 'group' bits are the same as the 'other' bits
wrt the permissions we want to test.
So rewrite 'acl_permission_check()' to not bother checking for group
ownership when the permission check doesn't care.
For example, if we're asking for read permissions, and both 'group' and
'other' allow reading, there's really no reason to check if we're part
of the group or not: either way, we'll allow it.
Rasmus says:
"On a bog-standard Ubuntu 20.04 install, a workload consisting of
compiling lots of userspace programs (i.e., calling lots of
short-lived programs that all need to get their shared libs mapped in,
and the compilers poking around looking for system headers - lots of
/usr/lib, /usr/bin, /usr/include/ accesses) puts in_group_p around
0.1% according to perf top.
System-installed files are almost always 0755 (directories and
binaries) or 0644, so in most cases, we can avoid the binary search
and the cost of pulling the cred->groups array and in_group_p() .text
into the cpu cache"

Currently USB-audio driver manages the auto-pm of the primary
interface although a card may consist of multiple interfaces.
This may leave the secondary and other interfaces left running
unnecessarily after the auto-suspend.
This patch allows the driver managing the auto-pm of all bundled
interfaces per card. The chip->pm_intf field is extended as
chip->intf[] to contain the array of assigned interfaces, and the
runtime-PM is performed to all those interfaces.

Rationale:
Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM
as HTTPS traffic is much harder to manipulate.
Deterministic algorithm:
For each file:
For each line:
If doesn't contain `\bxmlns\b`:
For each link, `\bhttp://[^# \t\r\n]*(?:\w|/)`:
If both the HTTP and HTTPS versions
return 200 OK and serve the same content:
Replace HTTP with HTTPS.

As recently reported, some platforms provide a list of power
resources for device power state D3hot, through the _PR3 object,
but they do not provide a list of power resources for device power
state D0.
Among other things, this causes acpi_device_get_power() to return
D3hot as the current state of the device in question if all of the
D3hot power resources are "on", because it sees the power_resources
flag set and calls acpi_power_get_inferred_state() which finds that
D3hot is the shallowest power state with all of the associated power
resources turned "on", so that's what it returns. Moreover, that
value takes precedence over the acpi_dev_pm_explicit_get() return
value, because it means a deeper power state. The device may very
well be in D0 physically at that point, however.
Moreover, the presence of _PR3 without _PR0 for a given device
means that only one D3-level power state can be supported by it.
Namely, because there are no power resources to turn "off" when
transitioning the device from D0 into D3cold (which should be
supported since _PR3 is present), the evaluation of _PS3 should
be sufficient to put it straight into D3cold, but this means that
the effect of turning "on" the _PR3 power resources is unclear,
so it is better to avoid doing that altogether. Consequently,
there is no practical way do distinguish D3cold from D3hot for
the device in question and the power states of it can be labeled
so that D3hot is the deepest supported one (and Linux assumes
that putting a device into D3hot via ACPI may cause power to be
removed from it anyway, for legacy reasons).
To work around the problem described above modify the ACPI
enumeration of devices so that power resources are only used
for device power management if the list of D0 power resources
is not empty and make it mart D3cold as supported only if that
is the case and the D3hot list of power resources is not empty
too.

If the execbuf is interrupted after building the cmdparser pipeline, and
before we commit to submitting the request to HW, we would attempt to
clean up the cmdparser early. While we held active references to the vma
being parsed and constructed, we did not hold an active reference for
the buffer pool itself. The result was that an interrupted execbuf could
still have run the cmdparser pipeline, but since the buffer pool was
idle, its target vma could have been recycled.
Note this problem only occurs if the cmdparser is running async due to
pipelined waits on busy fences, and the execbuf is interrupted.
