2015-05-22time: Rework debugging variables so they aren't globalJohn Stultz
Ingo suggested that the timekeeping debugging variables recently added should not be global, and should be tied to the timekeeper's read_base. Thus this patch implements that suggestion. This version is different from the earlier versions as it keeps the variables in the timekeeper structure rather then in the tkr.

2015-05-22timekeeping: Provide new API to get the current time resolutionHarald Geyer
This patch series introduces a new function u32 ktime_get_resolution_ns(void) which allows to clean up some driver code. In particular the IIO subsystem has a function to provide timestamps for events but no means to get their resolution. So currently the dht11 driver tries to guess the resolution in a rather messy and convoluted way. We can do much better with the new code. This API is not designed to be exposed to user space. This has been tested on i386, sunxi and mxs.

2015-05-22genirq: Set IRQCHIP_SKIP_SET_WAKE for no_irq_chipGeert Uytterhoeven
If no_irq_chip is used for wake up (e.g. gpio-keys with a simple GPIO controller), the following warning is printed on resume from s2ram: WANING: CPU: 0 PID: 1046 at kernel/irq/manage.c:537 irq_set_irq_wake+0x9c/0xf8() Unbalanced IRQ 113 wake disable This happens because no_irq_chip does not implement irq_chip.irq_set_wake(), causing set_irq_wake_real() to return -ENXIO, and irq_set_irq_wake() to reset the wake_depth to zero. Set IRQCHIP_SKIP_SET_WAKE to indicate that irq_chip.irq_set_wake() is not implemented. Cfr. commit 10a50f1ab5f06c9a ("genirq: Set IRQCHIP_SKIP_SET_WAKE flag for dummy_irq_chip").

2015-05-21bpf: allow bpf programs to tail-call other bpf programsAlexei Starovoitov
introduce bpf_tail_call(ctx, &jmp_table, index) helper function which can be used from BPF programs like: int bpf_prog(struct pt_regs *ctx) { ... bpf_tail_call(ctx, &jmp_table, index); ... } that is roughly equivalent to: int bpf_prog(struct pt_regs *ctx) { ... if (jmp_table[index]) return (*jmp_table[index])(ctx); ... } The important detail that it's not a normal call, but a tail call. The kernel stack is precious, so this helper reuses the current stack frame and jumps into another BPF program without adding extra call frame. It's trivially done in interpreter and a bit trickier in JITs. In case of x64 JIT the bigger part of generated assembler prologue is common for all programs, so it is simply skipped while jumping. Other JITs can do similar prologue-skipping optimization or do stack unwind before jumping into the next program. bpf_tail_call() arguments: ctx - context pointer jmp_table - one of BPF_MAP_TYPE_PROG_ARRAY maps used as the jump table index - index in the jump table Since all BPF programs are idenitified by file descriptor, user space need to populate the jmp_table with FDs of other BPF programs. If jmp_table[index] is empty the bpf_tail_call() doesn't jump anywhere and program execution continues as normal. New BPF_MAP_TYPE_PROG_ARRAY map type is introduced so that user space can populate this jmp_table array with FDs of other bpf programs. Programs can share the same jmp_table array or use multiple jmp_tables. The chain of tail calls can form unpredictable dynamic loops therefore tail_call_cnt is used to limit the number of calls and currently is set to 32. Use cases: Acked-by: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net> ========== - simplify complex programs by splitting them into a sequence of small programs - dispatch routine For tracing and future seccomp the program may be triggered on all system calls, but processing of syscall arguments will be different. It's more efficient to implement them as: int syscall_entry(struct seccomp_data *ctx) { bpf_tail_call(ctx, &syscall_jmp_table, ctx->nr /* syscall number */); ... default: process unknown syscall ... } int sys_write_event(struct seccomp_data *ctx) {...} int sys_read_event(struct seccomp_data *ctx) {...} syscall_jmp_table[__NR_write] = sys_write_event; syscall_jmp_table[__NR_read] = sys_read_event; For networking the program may call into different parsers depending on packet format, like: int packet_parser(struct __sk_buff *skb) { ... parse L2, L3 here ... __u8 ipproto = load_byte(skb, ... offsetof(struct iphdr, protocol)); bpf_tail_call(skb, &ipproto_jmp_table, ipproto); ... default: process unknown protocol ... } int parse_tcp(struct __sk_buff *skb) {...} int parse_udp(struct __sk_buff *skb) {...} ipproto_jmp_table[IPPROTO_TCP] = parse_tcp; ipproto_jmp_table[IPPROTO_UDP] = parse_udp; - for TC use case, bpf_tail_call() allows to implement reclassify-like logic - bpf_map_update_elem/delete calls into BPF_MAP_TYPE_PROG_ARRAY jump table are atomic, so user space can build chains of BPF programs on the fly Implementation details: ======================= - high performance of bpf_tail_call() is the goal. It could have been implemented without JIT changes as a wrapper on top of BPF_PROG_RUN() macro, but with two downsides: . all programs would have to pay performance penalty for this feature and tail call itself would be slower, since mandatory stack unwind, return, stack allocate would be done for every tailcall. . tailcall would be limited to programs running preempt_disabled, since generic 'void *ctx' doesn't have room for 'tail_call_cnt' and it would need to be either global per_cpu variable accessed by helper and by wrapper or global variable protected by locks. In this implementation x64 JIT bypasses stack unwind and jumps into the callee program after prologue. - bpf_prog_array_compatible() ensures that prog_type of callee and caller are the same and JITed/non-JITed flag is the same, since calling JITed program from non-JITed is invalid, since stack frames are different. Similarly calling kprobe type program from socket type program is invalid. - jump table is implemented as BPF_MAP_TYPE_PROG_ARRAY to reuse 'map' abstraction, its user space API and all of verifier logic. It's in the existing arraymap.c file, since several functions are shared with regular array map. Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@plumgrid.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2015-05-20driver-core: add driver module asynchronous probe supportLuis R. Rodriguez
Some init systems may wish to express the desire to have device drivers run their probe() code asynchronously. This implements support for this and allows userspace to request async probe as a preference through a generic shared device driver module parameter, async_probe. Implementation for async probe is supported through a module parameter given that since synchronous probe has been prevalent for years some userspace might exist which relies on the fact that the device driver will probe synchronously and the assumption that devices it provides will be immediately available after this.

2015-05-19clockevents: Stop unused clockevent devicesViresh Kumar
To avoid getting spurious interrupts on a tickless CPU, clockevent device can now be stopped by switching to ONESHOT_STOPPED state. The natural place for handling this transition is tick_program_event(). On 'expires == KTIME_MAX', we skip programming the event and so we need to fix such call sites as well, to always call tick_program_event() irrespective of the expires value. Once the clockevent device is required again, check if it was earlier put into ONESHOT_STOPPED state. If yes, switch its state to ONESHOT before programming its event. To make sure we haven't missed any corner case, add a WARN() for the case where we try to reprogram clockevent device while we aren't configured in ONESHOT_STOPPED state.

2015-05-19clockevents: Introduce CLOCK_EVT_STATE_ONESHOT_STOPPED stateViresh Kumar
When no timers/hrtimers are pending, the expiry time is set to a special value: 'KTIME_MAX'. This normally happens with NO_HZ_{IDLE|FULL} in both LOWRES/HIGHRES modes. When 'expiry == KTIME_MAX', we either cancel the 'tick-sched' hrtimer (NOHZ_MODE_HIGHRES) or skip reprogramming clockevent device (NOHZ_MODE_LOWRES). But, the clockevent device is already reprogrammed from the tick-handler for next tick. As the clock event device is programmed in ONESHOT mode it will at least fire one more time (unnecessarily). Timers on few implementations (like arm_arch_timer, etc.) only support PERIODIC mode and their drivers emulate ONESHOT over that. Which means that on these platforms we will get spurious interrupts periodically (at last programmed interval rate, normally tick rate). In order to avoid spurious interrupts, the clockevent device should be stopped or its interrupts should be masked. A simple (yet hacky) solution to get this fixed could be: update hrtimer_force_reprogram() to always reprogram clockevent device and update clockevent drivers to STOP generating events (or delay it to max time) when 'expires' is set to KTIME_MAX. But the drawback here is that every clockevent driver has to be hacked for this particular case and its very easy for new ones to miss this. However, Thomas suggested to add an optional state ONESHOT_STOPPED to solve this problem: lkml.org/lkml/2014/5/9/508. This patch adds support for ONESHOT_STOPPED state in clockevents core. It will only be available to drivers that implement the state-specific callbacks instead of the legacy ->set_mode() callback.

2015-05-19genirq: Introduce irq_set_vcpu_affinity() to target an interrupt to a VCPUJiang Liu
With Posted-Interrupts support in Intel CPU and IOMMU, an external interrupt from assigned-devices could be directly delivered to a virtual CPU in a virtual machine. Instead of hacking KVM and Intel IOMMU drivers, we propose a platform independent interface to target an interrupt to a specific virtual CPU in a virtual machine, or set virtual CPU affinity for an interrupt. By adopting this new interface and the hierarchy irqdomain, we could easily support posted-interrupts on Intel platforms, and also provide flexible enough interfaces for other platforms to support similar features. Here is the usage scenario for this interface: Guest update MSI/MSI-X interrupt configuration -->QEMU and KVM handle this -->KVM call this interface (passing posted interrupts descriptor and guest vector) -->irq core will transfer the control to IOMMU -->IOMMU will do the real work of updating IRTE (IRTE has new format for VT-d Posted-Interrupts) Signed-off-by: Jiang Liu <jiang.liu@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Feng Wu <feng.wu@intel.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1432026437-16560-2-git-send-email-feng.wu@intel.com Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

2015-05-19sched/numa: Reduce conflict between fbq_classify_rq() and migrationRik van Riel
It is possible for fbq_classify_rq() to indicate that a CPU has tasks that should be moved to another NUMA node, but for migrate_improves_locality and migrate_degrades_locality to not identify those tasks. This patch always gives preference to preferred node evaluations, and only checks the number of faults when evaluating moves between two non-preferred nodes on a larger NUMA system. On a two node system, the number of faults is never evaluated. Either a task is about to be pulled off its preferred node, or migrated onto it.

2015-05-19sched/preempt, mm/fault: Count pagefault_disable() levels in pagefault_disabledDavid Hildenbrand
Until now, pagefault_disable()/pagefault_enabled() used the preempt count to track whether in an environment with pagefaults disabled (can be queried via in_atomic()). This patch introduces a separate counter in task_struct to count the level of pagefault_disable() calls. We'll keep manipulating the preempt count to retain compatibility to existing pagefault handlers. It is now possible to verify whether in a pagefault_disable() envionment by calling pagefault_disabled(). In contrast to in_atomic() it will not be influenced by preempt_enable()/preempt_disable().

2015-05-18sched: always use blk_schedule_flush_plug in io_schedule_outShaohua Li
block plug callback could sleep, so we introduce a parameter 'from_schedule' and corresponding drivers can use it to destinguish a schedule plug flush or a plug finish. Unfortunately io_schedule_out still uses blk_flush_plug(). This causes below output (Note, I added a might_sleep() in raid1_unplug to make it trigger faster, but the whole thing doesn't matter if I add might_sleep). In raid1/10, this can cause deadlock. This patch makes io_schedule_out always uses blk_schedule_flush_plug. This should only impact drivers (as far as I know, raid 1/10) which are sensitive to the 'from_schedule' parameter.

But these fields were changed to be allowed being read with wq_pool_mutex held. So we simply remove the mutex_lock(&wq->mutex). Without the dependence on the the mutex_lock(&wq->mutex), the test of wq->unbound_attrs->no_numa can also be moved upward. The old code need a long comment to describe the stableness of @wq->unbound_attrs which is also guaranteed by wq_pool_mutex now, so we don't need this such comment.

2015-05-18workqueue: wq_pool_mutex protects the attrs-installationLai Jiangshan
Current wq_pool_mutex doesn't proctect the attrs-installation, it results that ->unbound_attrs, ->numa_pwq_tbl[] and ->dfl_pwq can only be accessed under wq->mutex and causes some inconveniences. Example, wq_update_unbound_numa() has to acquire wq->mutex before fetching the wq->unbound_attrs->no_numa and the old_pwq. attrs-installation is a short operation, so this change will no cause any latency for other operations which also acquire the wq_pool_mutex. The only unprotected attrs-installation code is in apply_workqueue_attrs(), so this patch touches code less than comments. It is also a preparation patch for next several patches which read wq->unbound_attrs, wq->numa_pwq_tbl[] and wq->dfl_pwq with only wq_pool_mutex held.

2015-05-18watchdog: Fix merge 'conflict'Peter Zijlstra
Two watchdog changes that came through different trees had a non conflicting conflict, that is, one changed the semantics of a variable but no actual code conflict happened. So the merge appeared fine, but the resulting code did not behave as expected. Commit 195daf665a62 ("watchdog: enable the new user interface of the watchdog mechanism") changes the semantics of watchdog_user_enabled, which thereafter is only used by the functions introduced by b3738d293233 ("watchdog: Add watchdog enable/disable all functions"). There further appears to be a distinct lack of serialization between setting and using watchdog_enabled, so perhaps we should wrap the {en,dis}able_all() things in watchdog_proc_mutex.

2015-05-18genirq: Don't suspend nested_thread irqs over system suspendNeilBrown
Nested IRQs can only fire when the parent irq fires. So when the parent is suspended, there is no need to suspend the child irq. Suspending nested irqs can cause a problem is they are suspended or resumed in the wrong order. If an interrupt fires while the parent is active but the child is suspended, then the interrupt will not be acknowledged properly and so an interrupt storm can result. This is particularly likely if the parent is resumed before the child, and the interrupt was raised during suspend. Ensuring correct ordering would be possible, but it is simpler to just never suspend nested interrupts.

2015-05-18sched,perf: Fix periodic timersPeter Zijlstra
In the below two commits (see Fixes) we have periodic timers that can stop themselves when they're no longer required, but need to be (re)-started when their idle condition changes. Further complications is that we want the timer handler to always do the forward such that it will always correctly deal with the overruns, and we do not want to race such that the handler has already decided to stop, but the (external) restart sees the timer still active and we end up with a 'lost' timer. The problem with the current code is that the re-start can come before the callback does the forward, at which point the forward from the callback will WARN about forwarding an enqueued timer. Now, conceptually its easy to detect if you're before or after the fwd by comparing the expiration time against the current time. Of course, that's expensive (and racy) because we don't have the current time. Alternatively one could cache this state inside the timer, but then everybody pays the overhead of maintaining this extra state, and that is undesired. The only other option that I could see is the external timer_active variable, which I tried to kill before. I would love a nicer interface for this seemingly simple 'problem' but alas.

The previous patches can be applied, once the corresponding module is loaded. In general, the patch will do relocation (if necessary) and obtain/verify function address before we start to enable patch. There are three different situations in which the coming module notifier can fail: 1) relocations are not applied for some reason. In this case kallsyms for module symbol is not called at all. The patch is not applied to the module. If the user disable and enable patch again, there is possible bug in klp_enable_func. If the user specified func->old_addr for some function in the module (and he shouldn't do that, but nevertheless) our warning would not catch it, ftrace will reject to register the handler because of wrong address or will register the handler for wrong address. 2) relocations are applied successfully, but kallsyms lookup fails. In this case func->old_addr can be correct for all previous lookups, 0 for current failed one, and "unspecified" for the rest. If we undergo the same scenario as in 1, the behaviour differs for three cases, but the patch is not enabled anyway. 3) the object is initialized, but klp_enable_object fails in the notifier due to possible ftrace error. Since it is improbable that ftrace would heal itself in the future, we would get those errors everytime the patch is enabled. In order to fix above situations, we can make obj->mod to NULL, if the coming modified notifier fails.

2015-05-17sched: Fix function declaration return type mismatchNicholas Mc Guire
static code checking was unhappy with: ./kernel/sched/fair.c:162 WARNING: return of wrong type int != unsigned int get_update_sysctl_factor() is declared to return int but is currently returning an unsigned int. The first few preprocessed lines are: static int get_update_sysctl_factor(void) { unsigned int cpus = ({ int __min1 = (cpumask_weight(cpu_online_mask)); int __min2 = (8); __min1 < __min2 ? __min1: __min2; }); unsigned int factor; The type used by min_t() should be 'unsigned int' and the return type of get_update_sysctl_factor() should also be 'unsigned int' as its call-site update_sysctl() is expecting 'unsigned int' and the values utilizing: 'factor' 'sysctl_sched_min_granularity' 'sched_nr_latency' 'sysctl_sched_wakeup_granularity' ... are also all 'unsigned int', plus cpumask_weight() is also returning 'unsigned int'. So the natural type to use around here is 'unsigned int'. ( Patch was compile tested with x86_64_defconfig + CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG=y and the changed sections in kernel/sched/fair.i were reviewed. ) Signed-off-by: Nicholas Mc Guire <hofrat@osadl.org> [ Improved the changelog a bit. ] Cc: H.
