Over last year, several patches for drivers/mux/ were not picked up, even after multiple pings or resends, so mark the mux subsystem as odd fixes to clarify actual status of lack of maintainers with dedicated time and indicate that someone could help here.

2025-05-21kernfs: Relax constraint in draining guardMichal Koutný
The active reference lifecycle provides the break/unbreak mechanism but the active reference is not truly active after unbreak -- callers don't use it afterwards but it's important for proper pairing of kn->active counting. Assuming this mechanism is in place, the WARN check in kernfs_should_drain_open_files() is too sensitive -- it may transiently catch those (rightful) callers between kernfs_unbreak_active_protection() and kernfs_put_active() as found out by Chen Ridong: kernfs_remove_by_name_ns kernfs_get_active // active=1 __kernfs_remove // active=0x80000002 kernfs_drain ... wait_event //waiting (active == 0x80000001) kernfs_break_active_protection // active = 0x80000001 // continue kernfs_unbreak_active_protection // active = 0x80000002 ... kernfs_should_drain_open_files // warning occurs kernfs_put_active To avoid the false positives (mind panic_on_warn) remove the check altogether. (This is meant as quick fix, I think active reference break/unbreak may be simplified with larger rework.)

2025-05-21Merge patch series "coredump: add coredump socket"Christian Brauner
Christian Brauner <brauner@kernel.org> says: Coredumping currently supports two modes: (1) Dumping directly into a file somewhere on the filesystem. (2) Dumping into a pipe connected to a usermode helper process spawned as a child of the system_unbound_wq or kthreadd. For simplicity I'm mostly ignoring (1). There's probably still some users of (1) out there but processing coredumps in this way can be considered adventurous especially in the face of set*id binaries. The most common option should be (2) by now. It works by allowing userspace to put a string into /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern like: |/usr/lib/systemd/systemd-coredump %P %u %g %s %t %c %h The "|" at the beginning indicates to the kernel that a pipe must be used. The path following the pipe indicator is a path to a binary that will be spawned as a usermode helper process. Any additional parameters pass information about the task that is generating the coredump to the binary that processes the coredump. In the example core_pattern shown above systemd-coredump is spawned as a usermode helper. There's various conceptual consequences of this (non-exhaustive list): - systemd-coredump is spawned with file descriptor number 0 (stdin) connected to the read-end of the pipe. All other file descriptors are closed. That specifically includes 1 (stdout) and 2 (stderr). This has already caused bugs because userspace assumed that this cannot happen (Whether or not this is a sane assumption is irrelevant.). - systemd-coredump will be spawned as a child of system_unbound_wq. So it is not a child of any userspace process and specifically not a child of PID 1. It cannot be waited upon and is in a weird hybrid upcall which are difficult for userspace to control correctly. - systemd-coredump is spawned with full kernel privileges. This necessitates all kinds of weird privilege dropping excercises in userspace to make this safe. - A new usermode helper has to be spawned for each crashing process. This series adds a new mode: (3) Dumping into an AF_UNIX socket. Userspace can set /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern to: @/path/to/coredump.socket The "@" at the beginning indicates to the kernel that an AF_UNIX coredump socket will be used to process coredumps. The coredump socket must be located in the initial mount namespace. When a task coredumps it opens a client socket in the initial network namespace and connects to the coredump socket. - The coredump server should use SO_PEERPIDFD to get a stable handle on the connected crashing task. The retrieved pidfd will provide a stable reference even if the crashing task gets SIGKILLed while generating the coredump. - By setting core_pipe_limit non-zero userspace can guarantee that the crashing task cannot be reaped behind it's back and thus process all necessary information in /proc/<pid>. The SO_PEERPIDFD can be used to detect whether /proc/<pid> still refers to the same process. The core_pipe_limit isn't used to rate-limit connections to the socket. This can simply be done via AF_UNIX socket directly. - The pidfd for the crashing task will contain information how the task coredumps. The PIDFD_GET_INFO ioctl gained a new flag PIDFD_INFO_COREDUMP which can be used to retreive the coredump information. If the coredump gets a new coredump client connection the kernel guarantees that PIDFD_INFO_COREDUMP information is available. Currently the following information is provided in the new @coredump_mask extension to struct pidfd_info: * PIDFD_COREDUMPED is raised if the task did actually coredump. * PIDFD_COREDUMP_SKIP is raised if the task skipped coredumping (e.g., undumpable). * PIDFD_COREDUMP_USER is raised if this is a regular coredump and doesn't need special care by the coredump server. * PIDFD_COREDUMP_ROOT is raised if the generated coredump should be treated as sensitive and the coredump server should restrict access to the generated coredump to sufficiently privileged users. - The coredump server should mark itself as non-dumpable. - A container coredump server in a separate network namespace can simply bind to another well-know address and systemd-coredump fowards coredumps to the container. - Coredumps could in the future also be handled via per-user/session coredump servers that run only with that users privileges. The coredump server listens on the coredump socket and accepts a new coredump connection. It then retrieves SO_PEERPIDFD for the client, inspects uid/gid and hands the accepted client to the users own coredump handler which runs with the users privileges only (It must of coure pay close attention to not forward crashing suid binaries.). The new coredump socket will allow userspace to not have to rely on usermode helpers for processing coredumps and provides a safer way to handle them instead of relying on super privileged coredumping helpers. This will also be significantly more lightweight since no fork()+exec() for the usermodehelper is required for each crashing process. The coredump server in userspace can just keep a worker pool. * patches from https://lore.kernel.org/20250516-work-coredump-socket-v8-0-664f3caf2516@kernel.org: selftests/coredump: add tests for AF_UNIX coredumps selftests/pidfd: add PIDFD_INFO_COREDUMP infrastructure coredump: validate socket name as it is written coredump: show supported coredump modes pidfs, coredump: add PIDFD_INFO_COREDUMP coredump: add coredump socket coredump: reflow dump helpers a little coredump: massage do_coredump() coredump: massage format_corename() Link: https://lore.kernel.org/20250516-work-coredump-socket-v8-0-664f3caf2516@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Christian Brauner <brauner@kernel.org>

The PERF_RECORD_THROTTLE records are dumped for all throttled events. It's not necessary for group events, which are throttled altogether. Optimize it by only dump the throttle log for the leader. The sample right after the THROTTLE record must be generated by the actual target event. It is good enough for the perf tool to locate the actual target event.

2025-05-21perf: Fix the throttle logic for a groupKan Liang
The current throttle logic doesn't work well with a group, e.g., the following sampling-read case. $ perf record -e "{cycles,cycles}:S" ... $ perf report -D | grep THROTTLE | tail -2 THROTTLE events: 426 ( 9.0%) UNTHROTTLE events: 425 ( 9.0%) $ perf report -D | grep PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE -a4 | tail -n 5 0 1020120874009167 0x74970 [0x68]: PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE(IP, 0x1): ... sample_read: .... group nr 2 ..... id 0000000000000327, value 000000000cbb993a, lost 0 ..... id 0000000000000328, value 00000002211c26df, lost 0 The second cycles event has a much larger value than the first cycles event in the same group. The current throttle logic in the generic code only logs the THROTTLE event. It relies on the specific driver implementation to disable events. For all ARCHs, the implementation is similar. Only the event is disabled, rather than the group. The logic to disable the group should be generic for all ARCHs. Add the logic in the generic code. The following patch will remove the buggy driver-specific implementation. The throttle only happens when an event is overflowed. Stop the entire group when any event in the group triggers the throttle. The MAX_INTERRUPTS is set to all throttle events. The unthrottled could happen in 3 places. - event/group sched. All events in the group are scheduled one by one. All of them will be unthrottled eventually. Nothing needs to be changed. - The perf_adjust_freq_unthr_events for each tick. Needs to restart the group altogether. - The __perf_event_period(). The whole group needs to be restarted altogether as well. With the fix, $ sudo perf report -D | grep PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE -a4 | tail -n 5 0 3573470770332 0x12f5f8 [0x70]: PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE(IP, 0x2): ... sample_read: .... group nr 2 ..... id 0000000000000a28, value 00000004fd3dfd8f, lost 0 ..... id 0000000000000a29, value 00000004fd3dfd8f, lost 0 Suggested-by: "Peter Zijlstra (Intel)" <peterz@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Kan Liang <kan.liang@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Acked-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250520181644.2673067-2-kan.liang@linux.intel.com

2025-05-21sched/uclamp: Align uclamp and util_est and call before freq updateXuewen Yan
The commit dfa0a574cbc47 ("sched/uclamg: Handle delayed dequeue") has add the sched_delayed check to prevent double uclamp_dec/inc. However, it put the uclamp_rq_inc() after enqueue_task(). This may lead to the following issues: When a task with uclamp goes through enqueue_task() and could trigger cpufreq update, its uclamp won't even be considered in the cpufreq update. It is only after enqueue will the uclamp be added to rq buckets, and cpufreq will only pick it up at the next update. This could cause a delay in frequency updating. It may affect the performance(uclamp_min > 0) or power(uclamp_max < 1024). So, just like util_est, put the uclamp_rq_inc() before enqueue_task(). And as for the sched_delayed_task, same as util_est, using the sched_delayed flag to prevent inc the sched_delayed_task's uclamp, using the ENQUEUE_DELAYED flag to allow inc the sched_delayed_task's uclamp which is being woken up.

2025-05-21sched/util_est: Simplify condition for util_est_{en,de}queue()Xuewen Yan
To prevent double enqueue/dequeue of the util-est for sched_delayed tasks, commit 729288bc6856 ("kernel/sched: Fix util_est accounting for DELAY_DEQUEUE") added the corresponding check. This check excludes double en/dequeue during task migration and priority changes. In fact, these conditions can be simplified. For util_est_dequeue, we know that sched_delayed flag is set in dequeue_entity. When the task is sleeping, we need to call util_est_dequeue to subtract util-est from the cfs_rq. At this point, sched_delayed has not yet been set. If we find that sched_delayed is already set, it indicates that this task has already called dequeue_task_fair once. In this case, there is no need to call util_est_dequeue again. Therefore, simply checking the sched_delayed flag should be sufficient to prevent unnecessary util_est updates during the dequeue. For util_est_enqueue, our goal is to add the util_est to the cfs_rq when task enqueue. However, we don't want to add the util_est of a sched_delayed task to the cfs_rq because the task is sleeping. Therefore, we can exclude the util_est_enqueue for sched_delayed tasks by checking the sched_delayed flag. However, when waking up a delayed task, the sched_delayed flag is cleared after util_est_enqueue. As a result, if we only check the sched_delayed flag, we would miss the util_est_enqueue. Since waking up a sched_delayed task calls enqueue_task with the ENQUEUE_DELAYED flag, we can determine whether to call util_est_enqueue by checking if the enqueue_flag contains ENQUEUE_DELAYED.

Delayed dequeued feature keeps a sleeping task enqueued until its lag has elapsed. As a result, it stays also visible in rq->nr_running. So when in wake_affine_idle(), we should use the real running-tasks in rq to check whether we should place the wake-up task to current cpu. On the other hand, add a helper function to return the nr-delayed.
