2017-11-10audit: Allow auditd to set pid to 0 to end auditingSteve Grubb
The API to end auditing has historically been for auditd to set the pid to 0. This patch restores that functionality.

2017-11-10audit: use audit_set_enabled() in audit_enable()Paul Moore
Use audit_set_enabled() to enable auditing during early boot. This obviously won't emit an audit change record, but it will work anyway and should help prevent in future problems by consolidating the enable/disable code in one function.

2017-11-10audit: ensure that 'audit=1' actually enables audit for PID 1Paul Moore
Prior to this patch we enabled audit in audit_init(), which is too late for PID 1 as the standard initcalls are run after the PID 1 task is forked. This means that we never allocate an audit_context (see audit_alloc()) for PID 1 and therefore miss a lot of audit events generated by PID 1. This patch enables audit as early as possible to help ensure that when PID 1 is forked it can allocate an audit_context if required.

2017-11-10genirq: Track whether the trigger type has been setMarc Zyngier
When requesting a shared interrupt, we assume that the firmware support code (DT or ACPI) has called irqd_set_trigger_type already, so that we can retrieve it and check that the requester is being reasonnable. Unfortunately, we still have non-DT, non-ACPI systems around, and these guys won't call irqd_set_trigger_type before requesting the interrupt. The consequence is that we fail the request that would have worked before. We can either chase all these use cases (boring), or address it in core code (easier). Let's have a per-irq_desc flag that indicates whether irqd_set_trigger_type has been called, and let's just check it when checking for a shared interrupt. If it hasn't been set, just take whatever the interrupt requester asks.

2017-11-09sched/core: Optimize sched_feat() for !CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG buildsPatrick Bellasi
When the kernel is compiled with !CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG support, we expect that all SCHED_FEAT are turned into compile time constants being propagated to support compiler optimizations. Specifically, we expect that code blocks like this: if (sched_feat(FEATURE_NAME) [&& <other_conditions>]) { /* FEATURE CODE */ } are turned into dead-code in case FEATURE_NAME defaults to FALSE, and thus being removed by the compiler from the finale image. For this mechanism to properly work it's required for the compiler to have full access, from each translation unit, to whatever is the value defined by the sched_feat macro. This macro is defined as: #define sched_feat(x) (sysctl_sched_features & (1UL << __SCHED_FEAT_##x)) and thus, the compiler can optimize that code only if the value of sysctl_sched_features is visible within each translation unit. Since: 029632fbb ("sched: Make separate sched*.c translation units") the scheduler code has been split into separate translation units however the definition of sysctl_sched_features is part of kernel/sched/core.c while, for all the other scheduler modules, it is visible only via kernel/sched/sched.h as an: extern const_debug unsigned int sysctl_sched_features Unfortunately, an extern reference does not allow the compiler to apply constants propagation. Thus, on !CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG kernel we still end up with code to load a memory reference and (eventually) doing an unconditional jump of a chunk of code. This mechanism is unavoidable when sched_features can be turned on and off at run-time. However, this is not the case for "production" kernels compiled with !CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG. In this case, sysctl_sched_features is just a constant value which cannot be changed at run-time and thus memory loads and jumps can be avoided altogether. This patch fixes the case of !CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG kernel by declaring a local version of the sysctl_sched_features constant for each translation unit. This will ultimately allow the compiler to perform constants propagation and dead-code pruning. Tests have been done, with !CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG on a v4.14-rc8 with and without the patch, by running 30 iterations of: perf bench sched messaging --pipe --thread --group 4 --loop 50000 on a 40 cores Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2690 v2 @ 3.00GHz using the powersave governor to rule out variations due to frequency scaling.

'cached_raw_freq' is used to get the next frequency quickly but should always be in sync with sg_policy->next_freq. There is a case where it is not and in such cases it should be reset to avoid switching to incorrect frequencies. Consider this case for example: - policy->cur is 1.2 GHz (Max) - New request comes for 780 MHz and we store that in cached_raw_freq. - Based on 780 MHz, we calculate the effective frequency as 800 MHz. - We then see the CPU wasn't idle recently and choose to keep the next freq as 1.2 GHz. - Now we have cached_raw_freq is 780 MHz and sg_policy->next_freq is 1.2 GHz. - Now if the utilization doesn't change in then next request, then the next target frequency will still be 780 MHz and it will match with cached_raw_freq. But we will choose 1.2 GHz instead of 800 MHz here.

2017-11-08PM / s2idle: Clear the events_check_enabled flagRajat Jain
Problem: This flag does not get cleared currently in the suspend or resume path in the following cases: * In case some driver's suspend routine returns an error. * Successful s2idle case * etc? Why is this a problem: What happens is that the next suspend attempt could fail even though the user did not enable the flag by writing to /sys/power/wakeup_count. This is 1 use case how the issue can be seen (but similar use case with driver suspend failure can be thought of): 1. Read /sys/power/wakeup_count 2. echo count > /sys/power/wakeup_count 3. echo freeze > /sys/power/wakeup_count 4. Let the system suspend, and wakeup the system using some wake source that calls pm_wakeup_event() e.g. power button or something. 5. Note that the combined wakeup count would be incremented due to the pm_wakeup_event() in the resume path. 6. After resuming the events_check_enabled flag is still set. At this point if the user attempts to freeze again (without writing to /sys/power/wakeup_count), the suspend would fail even though there has been no wake event since the past resume. Address that by clearing the flag just before a resume is completed, so that it is always cleared for the corner cases mentioned above.

2017-11-08stop using '%pK' for /proc/kallsyms pointer valuesLinus Torvalds
Not only is it annoying to have one single flag for all pointers, as if that was a global choice and all kernel pointers are the same, but %pK can't get the 'access' vs 'open' time check right anyway. So make the /proc/kallsyms pointer value code use logic specific to that particular file. We do continue to honor kptr_restrict, but the default (which is unrestricted) is changed to instead take expected users into account, and restrict access by default. Right now the only actual expected user is kernel profiling, which has a separate sysctl flag for kernel profile access. There may be others.

2017-11-08module: export module signature enforcement statusBruno E. O. Meneguele
A static variable sig_enforce is used as status var to indicate the real value of CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_FORCE, once this one is set the var will hold true, but if the CONFIG is not set the status var will hold whatever value is present in the module.sig_enforce kernel cmdline param: true when =1 and false when =0 or not present. Considering this cmdline param take place over the CONFIG value when it's not set, other places in the kernel could misbehave since they would have only the CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_FORCE value to rely on. Exporting this status var allows the kernel to rely in the effective value of module signature enforcement, being it from CONFIG value or cmdline param. Signed-off-by: Bruno E. O.

2017-11-08locking/pvqspinlock: Implement hybrid PV queued/unfair locksWaiman Long
Currently, all the lock waiters entering the slowpath will do one lock stealing attempt to acquire the lock. That helps performance, especially in VMs with over-committed vCPUs. However, the current pvqspinlocks still don't perform as good as unfair locks in many cases. On the other hands, unfair locks do have the problem of lock starvation that pvqspinlocks don't have. This patch combines the best attributes of an unfair lock and a pvqspinlock into a hybrid lock with 2 modes - queued mode & unfair mode. A lock waiter goes into the unfair mode when there are waiters in the wait queue but the pending bit isn't set. Otherwise, it will go into the queued mode waiting in the queue for its turn. On a 2-socket 36-core E5-2699 v3 system (HT off), a kernel build (make -j<n>) was done in a VM with unpinned vCPUs 3 times with the best time selected and <n> is the number of vCPUs available. The build times of the original pvqspinlock, hybrid pvqspinlock and unfair lock with various number of vCPUs are as follows: vCPUs pvqlock hybrid pvqlock unfair lock ----- ------- -------------- ----------- 30 342.1s 329.1s 329.1s 36 314.1s 305.3s 307.3s 45 345.0s 302.1s 306.6s 54 365.4s 308.6s 307.8s 72 358.9s 293.6s 303.9s 108 343.0s 285.9s 304.2s The hybrid pvqspinlock performs better or comparable to the unfair lock. By turning on QUEUED_LOCK_STAT, the table below showed the number of lock acquisitions in unfair mode and queue mode after a kernel build with various number of vCPUs. vCPUs queued mode unfair mode ----- ----------- ----------- 30 9,130,518 294,954 36 10,856,614 386,809 45 8,467,264 11,475,373 54 6,409,987 19,670,855 72 4,782,063 25,712,180 It can be seen that as the VM became more and more over-committed, the ratio of locks acquired in unfair mode increases. This is all done automatically to get the best overall performance as possible. Using a kernel locking microbenchmark with number of locking threads equals to the number of vCPUs available on the same machine, the minimum, average and maximum (min/avg/max) numbers of locking operations done per thread in a 5-second testing interval are shown below: vCPUs hybrid pvqlock unfair lock ----- -------------- ----------- 36 822,135/881,063/950,363 75,570/313,496/ 690,465 54 542,435/581,664/625,937 35,460/204,280/ 457,172 72 397,500/428,177/499,299 17,933/150,679/ 708,001 108 257,898/288,150/340,871 3,085/181,176/1,257,109 It can be seen that the hybrid pvqspinlocks are more fair and performant than the unfair locks in this test. The table below shows the kernel build times on a smaller 2-socket 16-core 32-thread E5-2620 v4 system. vCPUs pvqlock hybrid pvqlock unfair lock ----- ------- -------------- ----------- 16 436.8s 433.4s 435.6s 36 366.2s 364.8s 364.5s 48 423.6s 376.3s 370.2s 64 433.1s 376.6s 376.8s Again, the performance of the hybrid pvqspinlock was comparable to that of the unfair lock.

2017-11-07x86/mm, resource: Use PAGE_KERNEL protection for ioremap of memory pagesTom Lendacky
In order for memory pages to be properly mapped when SEV is active, it's necessary to use the PAGE_KERNEL protection attribute as the base protection. This ensures that memory mapping of, e.g. ACPI tables, receives the proper mapping attributes.

In preperation for a new function that will need additional resource information during the resource walk, update the resource walk callback to pass the resource structure. Since the current callback start and end arguments are pulled from the resource structure, the callback functions can obtain them from the resource structure directly.

2017-11-07kprobes, x86/alternatives: Use text_mutex to protect smp_alt_modulesZhou Chengming
We use alternatives_text_reserved() to check if the address is in the fixed pieces of alternative reserved, but the problem is that we don't hold the smp_alt mutex when call this function. So the list traversal may encounter a deleted list_head if another path is doing alternatives_smp_module_del(). One solution is that we can hold smp_alt mutex before call this function, but the difficult point is that the callers of this functions, arch_prepare_kprobe() and arch_prepare_optimized_kprobe(), are called inside the text_mutex. So we must hold smp_alt mutex before we go into these arch dependent code. But we can't now, the smp_alt mutex is the arch dependent part, only x86 has it. Maybe we can export another arch dependent callback to solve this. But there is a simpler way to handle this problem. We can reuse the text_mutex to protect smp_alt_modules instead of using another mutex. And all the arch dependent checks of kprobes are inside the text_mutex, so it's safe now.

2017-11-06cgroup: export list of cgroups v2 features using sysfsRoman Gushchin
The active development of cgroups v2 sometimes leads to a creation of interfaces, which are not turned on by default (to provide backward compatibility). It's handy to know from userspace, which cgroup v2 features are supported without calculating it based on the kernel version. So, let's export the list of such features using /sys/kernel/cgroup/features pseudo-file. The list is hardcoded and has to be extended when new functionality is added. Each feature is printed on a new line.

2017-11-06cgroup: export list of delegatable control files using sysfsRoman Gushchin
Delegatable cgroup v2 control files may require special handling (e.g. chowning), and the exact list of such files varies between kernel versions (and likely to be extended in the future). To guarantee correctness of this list and simplify the life of userspace (systemd, first of all), let's export the list via /sys/kernel/cgroup/delegate pseudo-file.

2017-11-05bpf, cgroup: implement eBPF-based device controller for cgroup v2Roman Gushchin
Cgroup v2 lacks the device controller, provided by cgroup v1. This patch adds a new eBPF program type, which in combination of previously added ability to attach multiple eBPF programs to a cgroup, will provide a similar functionality, but with some additional flexibility. This patch introduces a BPF_PROG_TYPE_CGROUP_DEVICE program type. A program takes major and minor device numbers, device type (block/character) and access type (mknod/read/write) as parameters and returns an integer which defines if the operation should be allowed or terminated with -EPERM.

2017-11-05bpf: offload: add infrastructure for loading programs for a specific netdevJakub Kicinski
The fact that we don't know which device the program is going to be used on is quite limiting in current eBPF infrastructure. We have to reverse or limit the changes which kernel makes to the loaded bytecode if we want it to be offloaded to a networking device. We also have to invent new APIs for debugging and troubleshooting support. Make it possible to load programs for a specific netdev. This helps us to bring the debug information closer to the core eBPF infrastructure (e.g. we will be able to reuse the verifer log in device JIT). It allows device JITs to perform translation on the original bytecode. __bpf_prog_get() when called to get a reference for an attachment point will now refuse to give it if program has a device assigned. Following patches will add a version of that function which passes the expected netdev in. @type argument in __bpf_prog_get() is renamed to attach_type to make it clearer that it's only set on attachment. All calls to ndo_bpf are protected by rtnl, only verifier callbacks are not. We need a wait queue to make sure netdev doesn't get destroyed while verifier is still running and calling its driver.

2017-11-04cpufreq: schedutil: Examine the correct CPU when we update utilChris Redpath
After commit 674e75411fc2 (sched: cpufreq: Allow remote cpufreq callbacks) we stopped to always read the utilization for the CPU we are running the governor on, and instead we read it for the CPU which we've been told has updated utilization. This is stored in sugov_cpu->cpu. The value is set in sugov_register() but we clear it in sugov_start() which leads to always looking at the utilization of CPU0 instead of the correct one. Fix this by consolidating the initialization code into sugov_start().
