This adds the close_range() syscall. It allows to efficiently close a range
of file descriptors up to all file descriptors of a calling task.
I was contacted by FreeBSD as they wanted to have the same close_range()
syscall as we proposed here. We've coordinated this and in the meantime, Kyle
was fast enough to merge close_range() into FreeBSD already in April:
https://reviews.freebsd.org/D21627
https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base?view=revision&revision=359836
and the current plan is to backport close_range() to FreeBSD 12.2 (cf. [2])
once its merged in Linux too. Python is in the process of switching to
close_range() on FreeBSD and they are waiting on us to merge this to switch on
Linux as well: https://bugs.python.org/issue38061
The syscall came up in a recent discussion around the new mount API and
making new file descriptor types cloexec by default. During this
discussion, Al suggested the close_range() syscall (cf. [1]). Note, a
syscall in this manner has been requested by various people over time.
First, it helps to close all file descriptors of an exec()ing task. This
can be done safely via (quoting Al's example from [1] verbatim):
/* that exec is sensitive */
unshare(CLONE_FILES);
/* we don't want anything past stderr here */
close_range(3, ~0U);
execve(....);
The code snippet above is one way of working around the problem that file
descriptors are not cloexec by default. This is aggravated by the fact that
we can't just switch them over without massively regressing userspace. For
a whole class of programs having an in-kernel method of closing all file
descriptors is very helpful (e.g. demons, service managers, programming
language standard libraries, container managers etc.).
(Please note, unshare(CLONE_FILES) should only be needed if the calling
task is multi-threaded and shares the file descriptor table with another
thread in which case two threads could race with one thread allocating file
descriptors and the other one closing them via close_range(). For the
general case close_range() before the execve() is sufficient.)
Second, it allows userspace to avoid implementing closing all file
descriptors by parsing through /proc/<pid>/fd/* and calling close() on each
file descriptor. From looking at various large(ish) userspace code bases
this or similar patterns are very common in:
- service managers (cf. [4])
- libcs (cf. [6])
- container runtimes (cf. [5])
- programming language runtimes/standard libraries
- Python (cf. [2])
- Rust (cf. [7], [8])
As Dmitry pointed out there's even a long-standing glibc bug about missing
kernel support for this task (cf. [3]).
In addition, the syscall will also work for tasks that do not have procfs
mounted and on kernels that do not have procfs support compiled in. In such
situations the only way to make sure that all file descriptors are closed
is to call close() on each file descriptor up to UINT_MAX or RLIMIT_NOFILE,
OPEN_MAX trickery (cf. comment [8] on Rust).
The performance is striking. For good measure, comparing the following
simple close_all_fds() userspace implementation that is essentially just
glibc's version in [6]:
static int close_all_fds(void)
{
int dir_fd;
DIR *dir;
struct dirent *direntp;
dir = opendir("/proc/self/fd");
if (!dir)
return -1;
dir_fd = dirfd(dir);
while ((direntp = readdir(dir))) {
int fd;
if (strcmp(direntp->d_name, ".") == 0)
continue;
if (strcmp(direntp->d_name, "..") == 0)
continue;
fd = atoi(direntp->d_name);
if (fd == dir_fd || fd == 0 || fd == 1 || fd == 2)
continue;
close(fd);
}
closedir(dir);
return 0;
}
to close_range() yields:
1. closing 4 open files:
- close_all_fds(): ~280 us
- close_range(): ~24 us
2. closing 1000 open files:
- close_all_fds(): ~5000 us
- close_range(): ~800 us
close_range() is designed to allow for some flexibility. Specifically, it
does not simply always close all open file descriptors of a task. Instead,
callers can specify an upper bound.
This is e.g. useful for scenarios where specific file descriptors are
created with well-known numbers that are supposed to be excluded from
getting closed.
For extra paranoia close_range() comes with a flags argument. This can e.g.
be used to implement extension. Once can imagine userspace wanting to stop
at the first error instead of ignoring errors under certain circumstances.
There might be other valid ideas in the future. In any case, a flag
argument doesn't hurt and keeps us on the safe side.
From an implementation side this is kept rather dumb. It saw some input
from David and Jann but all nonsense is obviously my own!
- Errors to close file descriptors are currently ignored. (Could be changed
by setting a flag in the future if needed.)
- __close_range() is a rather simplistic wrapper around __close_fd().
My reasoning behind this is based on the nature of how __close_fd() needs
to release an fd. But maybe I misunderstood specifics:
We take the files_lock and rcu-dereference the fdtable of the calling
task, we find the entry in the fdtable, get the file and need to release
files_lock before calling filp_close().
In the meantime the fdtable might have been altered so we can't just
retake the spinlock and keep the old rcu-reference of the fdtable
around. Instead we need to grab a fresh reference to the fdtable.
If my reasoning is correct then there's really no point in fancyfying
__close_range(): We just need to rcu-dereference the fdtable of the
calling task once to cap the max_fd value correctly and then go on
calling __close_fd() in a loop.

Rust's solution is slightly different but is equally unperformant.
Rust calls getdtablesize() which is a glibc library function that
simply returns the current RLIMIT_NOFILE or OPEN_MAX values. Rust then
goes on to call close() on each fd. That's obviously overkill for most
tasks. Rarely, tasks - especially non-demons - hit RLIMIT_NOFILE or
OPEN_MAX.
Let's be nice and assume an unprivileged user with RLIMIT_NOFILE set
to 1024. Even in this case, there's a very high chance that in the
common case Rust is calling the close() syscall 1021 times pointlessly
if the task just has 0, 1, and 2 open.

osd_req_flags is overly general and doesn't suit its only user
(read_from_replica option) well:
- applying osd_req_flags in account_request() affects all OSD
requests, including linger (i.e. watch and notify). However,
linger requests should always go to the primary even though
some of them are reads (e.g. notify has side effects but it
is a read because it doesn't result in mutation on the OSDs).
- calls to class methods that are reads are allowed to go to
the replica, but most such calls issued for "rbd map" and/or
exclusive lock transitions are requested to be resent to the
primary via EAGAIN, doubling the latency.
Get rid of global osd_req_flags and set read_from_replica flag
only on specific OSD requests instead.

This patch adds support for a new boolean 'inter_set' field in struct
icc_provider. Setting it to 'true' enables calling '->set' for
inter-provider node pairs. All existing users of the interconnect
framework allocate this structure with kzalloc, and are therefore
unaffected by this change.
This makes it easier for hierarchies like exynos-bus, where every bus
is probed separately and registers a separate interconnect provider, to
model constraints between buses.

UBSAN is supported since GCC 4.9, which unfortunately did not yet have
__has_attribute(). To work around, the __GCC4_has_attribute workaround
requires defining which compiler version supports the given attribute.
In the case of no_sanitize_undefined, it is the first version that

The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
introduced in C99:
struct foo {
int stuff;
struct boo array[];
};
By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.
Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:
"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]
sizeof(flexible-array-member) triggers a warning because flexible array
members have incomplete type[1]. There are some instances of code in
which the sizeof operator is being incorrectly/erroneously applied to
zero-length arrays and the result is zero. Such instances may be hiding
some bugs. So, this work (flexible-array member conversions) will also
help to get completely rid of those sorts of issues.
Lastly, make use of the sizeof_field() helper instead of an open-coded
version.
This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle and audited _manually_.

It is possible that the first event in the event log is not actually a
log header at all, but rather a normal event. This leads to the cast in
__calc_tpm2_event_size being an invalid conversion, which means that
the values read are effectively garbage. Depending on the first event's
contents, this leads either to apparently normal behaviour, a crash or
a freeze.
While this behaviour of the firmware is not in accordance with the
TCG Client EFI Specification, this happens on a Dell Precision 5510
with the TPM enabled but hidden from the OS ("TPM On" disabled, state
otherwise untouched). The EFI firmware claims that the TPM is present
and active and that it supports the TCG 2.0 event log format.
Fortunately, this can be worked around by simply checking the header
of the first event and the event log header signature itself.
Commit b4f1874c6216 ("tpm: check event log version before reading final
events") addressed a similar issue also found on Dell models.

Ingo suggested that since the new sched_set_*() functions are
implemented using the 'nocheck' variants, they really shouldn't ever
fail, so remove the return value.

SCHED_FIFO (or any static priority scheduler) is a broken scheduler
model; it is fundamentally incapable of resource management, the one
thing an OS is actually supposed to do.
It is impossible to compose static priority workloads. One cannot take
two well designed and functional static priority workloads and mash
them together and still expect them to work.
Therefore it doesn't make sense to expose the priority field; the
kernel is fundamentally incapable of setting a sensible value, it
needs systems knowledge that it doesn't have.
Take away sched_setschedule() / sched_setattr() from modules and
replace them with:
- sched_set_fifo(p); create a FIFO task (at prio 50)
- sched_set_fifo_low(p); create a task higher than NORMAL,
which ends up being a FIFO task at prio 1.
- sched_set_normal(p, nice); (re)set the task to normal
This stops the proliferation of randomly chosen, and irrelevant, FIFO
priorities that dont't really mean anything anyway.
The system administrator/integrator, whoever has insight into the
actual system design and requirements (userspace) can set-up
appropriate priorities if and when needed.

The UBSAN instrumentation only inserts external CALLs when things go
'BAD', much like WARN(). So treat them similar to WARN()s for noinstr,
that is: allow them, at the risk of taking the machine down, to get
their message out.

only include KCSAN for now, as that is limited to clang11, which has

This is a kernel enhancement that configures the cpu affinity of kernel
threads via kernel boot option nohz_full=.
When this option is specified, the cpumask is immediately applied upon
kthread launch. This does not affect kernel threads that specify cpu
and node.
This allows CPU isolation (that is not allowing certain threads
to execute on certain CPUs) without using the isolcpus=domain parameter,
making it possible to enable load balancing on such CPUs
during runtime (see kernel-parameters.txt).
Note-1: this is based off on Wind River's patch at
https://github.com/starlingx-staging/stx-integ/blob/master/kernel/kernel-std/centos/patches/affine-compute-kernel-threads.patch
Difference being that this patch is limited to modifying kernel thread
cpumask. Behaviour of other threads can be controlled via cgroups or
sched_setaffinity.
Note-2: Wind River's patch was based off Christoph Lameter's patch at
https://lwn.net/Articles/565932/ with the only difference being
the kernel parameter changed from kthread to kthread_cpus.

Each psi group requires a dedicated kthread_delayed_work and
kthread_worker. Since no other work can be performed using psi_group's
kthread_worker, the same result can be obtained using a task_struct and
a timer directly. This makes psi triggering simpler by removing lists
and locks involved with kthread_worker usage and eliminates the need for
poll_scheduled atomic use in the hot path.

People report that utime and stime from /proc/<pid>/stat become very
wrong when the numbers are big enough, especially if you watch these
counters incrementally.
Specifically, the current implementation of: stime*rtime/total,
results in a saw-tooth function on top of the desired line, where the
teeth grow in size the larger the values become. IOW, it has a
relative error.
The result is that, when watching incrementally as time progresses
(for large values), we'll see periods of pure stime or utime increase,
irrespective of the actual ratio we're striving for.
Replace scale_stime() with a math64.h helper: mul_u64_u64_div_u64()
that is far more accurate. This also allows architectures to override
the implementation -- for instance they can opt for the old algorithm
if this new one turns out to be too expensive for them.

Symbols are needed for tools to describe instruction addresses. Pages
allocated for ftrace's purposes need symbols to be created for them.
Add such symbols to be visible via /proc/kallsyms.

Symbols are needed for tools to describe instruction addresses. Pages
allocated for kprobe's purposes need symbols to be created for them.
Add such symbols to be visible via /proc/kallsyms.
Note: kprobe insn pages are not used if ftrace is configured. To see the
effect of this patch, the kernel must be configured with:
# CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER is not set
CONFIG_KPROBES=y
and for optimised kprobes:
CONFIG_OPTPROBES=y
Example on x86:
# perf probe __schedule
Added new event:
probe:__schedule (on __schedule)
# cat /proc/kallsyms | grep '\[__builtin__kprobes\]'

Record (single instruction) changes to the kernel text (i.e.
self-modifying code) in order to support tracers like Intel PT and
ARM CoreSight.
A copy of the running kernel code is needed as a reference point (e.g.
from /proc/kcore). The text poke event records the old bytes and the
new bytes so that the event can be processed forwards or backwards.
The basic problem is recording the modified instruction in an
unambiguous manner given SMP instruction cache (in)coherence. That is,
when modifying an instruction concurrently any solution with one or
multiple timestamps is not sufficient:
CPU0 CPU1
0
1 write insn A
2 execute insn A
3 sync-I$
4
Due to I$, CPU1 might execute either the old or new A. No matter where
we record tracepoints on CPU0, one simply cannot tell what CPU1 will
have observed, except that at 0 it must be the old one and at 4 it
must be the new one.
To solve this, take inspiration from x86 text poking, which has to
solve this exact problem due to variable length instruction encoding
and I-fetch windows.
1) overwrite the instruction with a breakpoint and sync I$
This guarantees that that code flow will never hit the target
instruction anymore, on any CPU (or rather, it will cause an
exception).
2) issue the TEXT_POKE event
3) overwrite the breakpoint with the new instruction and sync I$
Now we know that any execution after the TEXT_POKE event will either
observe the breakpoint (and hit the exception) or the new instruction.
So by guarding the TEXT_POKE event with an exception on either side;
we can now tell, without doubt, which instruction another CPU will
have observed.

After the commit below, truncate() on x86 32bit uses ksys_ftruncate(). But
ksys_ftruncate() truncates the offset to unsigned long.
Switch the type of offset to loff_t which is what do_sys_ftruncate()

"Add additional LSM hooks for SafeSetID
SafeSetID is capable of making allow/deny decisions for set*uid calls

The work to do that is not yet complete, so probably won't make it in

We are planning on the rest of the work for extending the SafeSetID

The SafeSetID LSM uses the security_task_fix_setuid hook to filter
set*uid() syscalls according to its configured security policy. In
preparation for adding analagous support in the LSM for set*gid()
syscalls, we add the requisite hook here. Tested by putting print
statements in the security_task_fix_setgid hook and seeing them get hit
during kernel boot.

By default, the device allocation will also assign a parent device to the
IIO device object. In cases where devm_iio_device_alloc() is used,
sometimes the parent device must be different than the device used to
manage the allocation.
In that case, this helper should be used to change the parent, hence the
requirement to call this between allocation & registration.
This pattern/requirement is not very common in the IIO space, and it may be
cleaned up later.
But until then, assigning the parent manually between allocation &
registration is slightly easier.

The change passes the parent device to the iio_device_alloc() call. This
also updates the devm_iio_device_alloc() call to consider the device object
as the parent device by default.
Having it passed like this, should ensure that any IIO device object
already has a device object as parent, allowing for neater control, like
passing the 'indio_dev' object for other stuff [like buffers/triggers/etc],
and potentially creating iiom_xxx(indio_dev) functions.
With this patch, only the 'drivers/platform/x86/toshiba_acpi.c' needs an
update to pass the parent object as a parameter.
In the next patch all devm_iio_device_alloc() calls will be handled.
