2020-03-04tick/common: Make tick_periodic() check for missing ticksWaiman Long
The tick_periodic() function is used at the beginning part of the bootup process for time keeping while the other clock sources are being initialized. The current code assumes that all the timer interrupts are handled in a timely manner with no missing ticks. That is not actually true. Some ticks are missed and there are some discrepancies between the tick time (jiffies) and the timestamp reported in the kernel log. Some systems, however, are more prone to missing ticks than the others. In the extreme case, the discrepancy can actually cause a soft lockup message to be printed by the watchdog kthread. For example, on a Cavium ThunderX2 Sabre arm64 system: [ 25.496379] watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#14 stuck for 22s! On that system, the missing ticks are especially prevalent during the smp_init() phase of the boot process. With an instrumented kernel, it was found that it took about 24s as reported by the timestamp for the tick to accumulate 4s of time. Investigation and bisection done by others seemed to point to the commit 73f381660959 ("arm64: Advertise mitigation of Spectre-v2, or lack thereof") as the culprit. It could also be a firmware issue as new firmware was promised that would fix the issue. To properly address this problem, stop assuming that there will be no missing tick in tick_periodic(). Modify it to follow the example of tick_do_update_jiffies64() by using another reference clock to check for missing ticks. Since the watchdog timer uses running_clock(), it is used here as the reference. With this applied, the soft lockup problem in the affected arm64 system is gone and tick time tracks much more closely to the timestamp time.

2020-03-04hrtimer: Cast explicitely to u32t in __ktime_divns()Wen Yang
do_div() does a 64-by-32 division at least on 32bit platforms, while the divisor 'div' is explicitly casted to unsigned long, thus 64-bit on 64-bit platforms. The code already ensures that the divisor is less than 2^32. Hence the proper cast type is u32.

While unlikely the divisor in scale64_check_overflow() could be >= 32bit in scale64_check_overflow(). do_div() truncates the divisor to 32bit at least on 32bit platforms.

2020-03-04posix-cpu-timers: Stop disabling timers on mt-execEric W. Biederman
The reasons why the extra posix_cpu_timers_exit_group() invocation has been added are not entirely clear from the commit message. Today all that posix_cpu_timers_exit_group() does is stop timers that are tracking the task from firing. Every other operation on those timers is still allowed. The practical implication of this is posix_cpu_timer_del() which could not get the siglock after the thread group leader has exited (because sighand == NULL) would be able to run successfully because the timer was already dequeued. With that locking issue fixed there is no point in disabling all of the timers. So remove this ``tempoary'' hack.

2020-03-04posix-cpu-timers: Store a reference to a pid not a taskEric W. Biederman
posix cpu timers do not handle the death of a process well. This is most clearly seen when a multi-threaded process calls exec from a thread that is not the leader of the thread group. The posix cpu timer code continues to pin the old thread group leader and is unable to find the siglock from there. This results in posix_cpu_timer_del being unable to delete a timer, posix_cpu_timer_set being unable to set a timer. Further to compensate for the problems in posix_cpu_timer_del on a multi-threaded exec all timers that point at the multi-threaded task are stopped. The code for the timers fundamentally needs to check if the target process/thread is alive. This needs an extra level of indirection. This level of indirection is already available in struct pid. So replace cpu.task with cpu.pid to get the needed extra layer of indirection. In addition to handling things more cleanly this reduces the amount of memory a timer can pin when a process exits and then is reaped from a task_struct to the vastly smaller struct pid.

2020-03-03PM: QoS: annotate data races in pm_qos_*_value()Qian Cai
The target_value field in struct pm_qos_constraints is used for lockless access to the effective constraint value of a given QoS list, so the readers of it cannot expect it to always reflect the most recent effective constraint value. However, they can and do expect it to be equal to a valid effective constraint value computed at a certain time in the past (event though it may not be the most recent one), so add READ|WRITE_ONCE() annotations around the target_value accesses to prevent the compiler from possibly causing that expectation to be unmet by generating code in an exceptionally convoluted way.

2020-03-02bpf: Introduce pinnable bpf_link abstractionAndrii Nakryiko
Introduce bpf_link abstraction, representing an attachment of BPF program to a BPF hook point (e.g., tracepoint, perf event, etc). bpf_link encapsulates ownership of attached BPF program, reference counting of a link itself, when reference from multiple anonymous inodes, as well as ensures that release callback will be called from a process context, so that users can safely take mutex locks and sleep. Additionally, with a new abstraction it's now possible to generalize pinning of a link object in BPF FS, allowing to explicitly prevent BPF program detachment on process exit by pinning it in a BPF FS and let it open from independent other process to keep working with it. Convert two existing bpf_link-like objects (raw tracepoint and tracing BPF program attachments) into utilizing bpf_link framework, making them pinnable in BPF FS. More FD-based bpf_links will be added in follow up patches.

2020-02-28proc: Remove the now unnecessary internal mount of procEric W. Biederman
There remains no more code in the kernel using pids_ns->proc_mnt, therefore remove it from the kernel. The big benefit of this change is that one of the most error prone and tricky parts of the pid namespace implementation, maintaining kernel mounts of proc is removed. In addition removing the unnecessary complexity of the kernel mount fixes a regression that caused the proc mount options to be ignored. Now that the initial mount of proc comes from userspace, those mount options are again honored. This fixes Android's usage of the proc hidepid option.

2020-02-27bpf: INET_DIAG support in bpf_sk_storageMartin KaFai Lau
This patch adds INET_DIAG support to bpf_sk_storage. 1. Although this series adds bpf_sk_storage diag capability to inet sk, bpf_sk_storage is in general applicable to all fullsock. Hence, the bpf_sk_storage logic will operate on SK_DIAG_* nlattr. The caller will pass in its specific nesting nlattr (e.g. INET_DIAG_*) as the argument. 2. The request will be like: INET_DIAG_REQ_SK_BPF_STORAGES (nla_nest) (defined in latter patch) SK_DIAG_BPF_STORAGE_REQ_MAP_FD (nla_put_u32) SK_DIAG_BPF_STORAGE_REQ_MAP_FD (nla_put_u32) ...... Considering there could have multiple bpf_sk_storages in a sk, instead of reusing INET_DIAG_INFO ("ss -i"), the user can select some specific bpf_sk_storage to dump by specifying an array of SK_DIAG_BPF_STORAGE_REQ_MAP_FD. If no SK_DIAG_BPF_STORAGE_REQ_MAP_FD is specified (i.e. an empty INET_DIAG_REQ_SK_BPF_STORAGES), it will dump all bpf_sk_storages of a sk. 3. The reply will be like: INET_DIAG_BPF_SK_STORAGES (nla_nest) (defined in latter patch) SK_DIAG_BPF_STORAGE (nla_nest) SK_DIAG_BPF_STORAGE_MAP_ID (nla_put_u32) SK_DIAG_BPF_STORAGE_MAP_VALUE (nla_reserve_64bit) SK_DIAG_BPF_STORAGE (nla_nest) SK_DIAG_BPF_STORAGE_MAP_ID (nla_put_u32) SK_DIAG_BPF_STORAGE_MAP_VALUE (nla_reserve_64bit) ...... 4. Unlike other INET_DIAG info of a sk which is pretty static, the size required to dump the bpf_sk_storage(s) of a sk is dynamic as the system adding more bpf_sk_storage_map. It is hard to set a static min_dump_alloc size. Hence, this series learns it at the runtime and adjust the cb->min_dump_alloc as it iterates all sk(s) of a system. The "unsigned int *res_diag_size" in bpf_sk_storage_diag_put() is for this purpose. The next patch will update the cb->min_dump_alloc as it iterates the sk(s).

2020-02-28bpf: Replace zero-length array with flexible-array memberGustavo A. R. Silva
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] This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

2020-02-26signal: avoid double atomic counter increments for user accountingLinus Torvalds
When queueing a signal, we increment both the users count of pending signals (for RLIMIT_SIGPENDING tracking) and we increment the refcount of the user struct itself (because we keep a reference to the user in the signal structure in order to correctly account for it when freeing). That turns out to be fairly expensive, because both of them are atomic updates, and particularly under extreme signal handling pressure on big machines, you can get a lot of cache contention on the user struct. That can then cause horrid cacheline ping-pong when you do these multiple accesses. So change the reference counting to only pin the user for the _first_ pending signal, and to unpin it when the last pending signal is dequeued. That means that when a user sees a lot of concurrent signal queuing - which is the only situation when this matters - the only atomic access needed is generally the 'sigpending' count update. This was noticed because of a particularly odd timing artifact on a dual-socket 96C/192T Cascade Lake platform: when you get into bad contention, on that machine for some reason seems to be much worse when the contention happens in the upper 32-byte half of the cacheline. As a result, the kernel test robot will-it-scale 'signal1' benchmark had an odd performance regression simply due to random alignment of the 'struct user_struct' (and pointed to a completely unrelated and apparently nonsensical commit for the regression). Avoiding the double increments (and decrements on the dequeueing side, of course) makes for much less contention and hugely improved performance on that will-it-scale microbenchmark. Quoting Feng Tang: "It makes a big difference, that the performance score is tripled! bump from original 17000 to 54000. Also the gap between 5.0-rc6 and 5.0-rc6+Jiri's patch is reduced to around 2%" [ The "2% gap" is the odd cacheline placement difference on that platform: under the extreme contention case, the effect of which half of the cacheline was hot was 5%, so with the reduced contention the odd timing artifact is reduced too ] It does help in the non-contended case too, but is not nearly as noticeable.

KASAN is reporting that __blk_add_trace() has a use-after-free issue when accessing q->blk_trace. Indeed the switching of block tracing (and thus eventual freeing of q->blk_trace) is completely unsynchronized with the currently running tracing and thus it can happen that the blk_trace structure is being freed just while __blk_add_trace() works on it. Protect accesses to q->blk_trace by RCU during tracing and make sure we wait for the end of RCU grace period when shutting down tracing. Luckily that is rare enough event that we can afford that. Note that postponing the freeing of blk_trace to an RCU callback should better be avoided as it could have unexpected user visible side-effects as debugfs files would be still existing for a short while block tracing has been shut down.

2020-02-24bpf/stackmap: Dont trylock mmap_sem with PREEMPT_RT and interrupts disabledDavid Miller
In a RT kernel down_read_trylock() cannot be used from NMI context and up_read_non_owner() is another problematic issue. So in such a configuration, simply elide the annotated stackmap and just report the raw IPs. In the longer term, it might be possible to provide a atomic friendly versions of the page cache traversal which will at least provide the info if the pages are resident and don't need to be paged in.

2020-02-24bpf, lpm: Make locking RT friendlyThomas Gleixner
The LPM trie map cannot be used in contexts like perf, kprobes and tracing as this map type dynamically allocates memory. The memory allocation happens with a raw spinlock held which is a truly spinning lock on a PREEMPT RT enabled kernel which disables preemption and interrupts. As RT does not allow memory allocation from such a section for various reasons, convert the raw spinlock to a regular spinlock. On a RT enabled kernel these locks are substituted by 'sleeping' spinlocks which provide the proper protection but keep the code preemptible. On a non-RT kernel regular spinlocks map to raw spinlocks, i.e. this does not cause any functional change.

2020-02-24bpf: Prepare hashtab locking for PREEMPT_RTThomas Gleixner
PREEMPT_RT forbids certain operations like memory allocations (even with GFP_ATOMIC) from atomic contexts. This is required because even with GFP_ATOMIC the memory allocator calls into code pathes which acquire locks with long held lock sections. To ensure the deterministic behaviour these locks are regular spinlocks, which are converted to 'sleepable' spinlocks on RT. The only true atomic contexts on an RT kernel are the low level hardware handling, scheduling, low level interrupt handling, NMIs etc. None of these contexts should ever do memory allocations. As regular device interrupt handlers and soft interrupts are forced into thread context, the existing code which does spin_lock*(); alloc(GPF_ATOMIC); spin_unlock*(); just works. In theory the BPF locks could be converted to regular spinlocks as well, but the bucket locks and percpu_freelist locks can be taken from arbitrary contexts (perf, kprobes, tracepoints) which are required to be atomic contexts even on RT. These mechanisms require preallocated maps, so there is no need to invoke memory allocations within the lock held sections. BPF maps which need dynamic allocation are only used from (forced) thread context on RT and can therefore use regular spinlocks which in turn allows to invoke memory allocations from the lock held section. To achieve this make the hash bucket lock a union of a raw and a regular spinlock and initialize and lock/unlock either the raw spinlock for preallocated maps or the regular variant for maps which require memory allocations. On a non RT kernel this distinction is neither possible nor required. spinlock maps to raw_spinlock and the extra code and conditional is optimized out by the compiler. No functional change.

2020-02-24bpf: Replace open coded recursion prevention in sys_bpf()Thomas Gleixner
The required protection is that the caller cannot be migrated to a different CPU as these functions end up in places which take either a hash bucket lock or might trigger a kprobe inside the memory allocator. Both scenarios can lead to deadlocks. The deadlock prevention is per CPU by incrementing a per CPU variable which temporarily blocks the invocation of BPF programs from perf and kprobes. Replace the open coded preempt_[dis|en]able and __this_cpu_[inc|dec] pairs with the new helper functions. These functions are already prepared to make BPF work on PREEMPT_RT enabled kernels.

2020-02-24bpf: Use bpf_prog_run_pin_on_cpu() at simple call sites.David Miller
All of these cases are strictly of the form: preempt_disable(); BPF_PROG_RUN(...); preempt_enable(); Replace this with bpf_prog_run_pin_on_cpu() which wraps BPF_PROG_RUN() with: migrate_disable(); BPF_PROG_RUN(...); migrate_enable(); On non RT enabled kernels this maps to preempt_disable/enable() and on RT enabled kernels this solely prevents migration, which is sufficient as there is no requirement to prevent reentrancy to any BPF program from a preempting task. The only requirement is that the program stays on the same CPU. Therefore, this is a trivially correct transformation. The seccomp loop does not need protection over the loop.

2020-02-24bpf: Dont iterate over possible CPUs with interrupts disabledThomas Gleixner
pcpu_freelist_populate() is disabling interrupts and then iterates over the possible CPUs. The reason why this disables interrupts is to silence lockdep because the invoked ___pcpu_freelist_push() takes spin locks. Neither the interrupt disabling nor the locking are required in this function because it's called during initialization and the resulting map is not yet visible to anything.

2020-02-24bpf: Tighten the requirements for preallocated hash mapsThomas Gleixner
The assumption that only programs attached to perf NMI events can deadlock on memory allocators is wrong. Assume the following simplified callchain: kmalloc() from regular non BPF context cache empty freelist empty lock(zone->lock); tracepoint or kprobe BPF() update_elem() lock(bucket) kmalloc() cache empty freelist empty lock(zone->lock); <- DEADLOCK There are other ways which do not involve locking to create wreckage: kmalloc() from regular non BPF context local_irq_save(); ... obj = slab_first(); kprobe() BPF() update_elem() lock(bucket) kmalloc() local_irq_save(); ... obj = slab_first(); <- Same object as above ... So preallocation _must_ be enforced for all variants of intrusive instrumentation. Unfortunately immediate enforcement would break backwards compatibility, so for now such programs still are allowed to run, but a one time warning is emitted in dmesg and the verifier emits a warning in the verifier log as well so developers are made aware about this and can fix their programs before the enforcement becomes mandatory.
