Threaded interrupts provide additional interesting interactions between
RCU and raise_softirq() that can result in self-deadlocks in v5.0-2 of
the Linux kernel. These self-deadlocks can be provoked in susceptible
kernels within a few minutes using the following rcutorture command on
an 8-CPU system:
tools/testing/selftests/rcutorture/bin/kvm.sh --duration 5 --configs "TREE03" --bootargs "threadirqs"
Although post-v5.2 RCU commits have at least greatly reduced the
probability of these self-deadlocks, this was entirely by accident.
Although this sort of accident should be rowdily celebrated on those
rare occasions when it does occur, such celebrations should be quickly
followed by a principled patch, which is what this patch purports to be.
The key point behind this patch is that when in_interrupt() returns
true, __raise_softirq_irqoff() will never attempt a wakeup. Therefore,
if in_interrupt(), calls to raise_softirq*() are both safe and
extremely cheap.
This commit therefore replaces the in_irq() calls in the "if" statement
in rcu_read_unlock_special() with in_interrupt() and simplifies the
"if" condition to the following:
if (irqs_were_disabled && use_softirq &&
(in_interrupt() ||
(exp && !t->rcu_read_unlock_special.b.deferred_qs))) {
raise_softirq_irqoff(RCU_SOFTIRQ);
} else {
/* Appeal to the scheduler. */
}
The rationale behind the "if" condition is as follows:
1. irqs_were_disabled: If interrupts are enabled, we should
instead appeal to the scheduler so as to let the upcoming
irq_enable()/local_bh_enable() do the rescheduling for us.
2. use_softirq: If this kernel isn't using softirq, then
raise_softirq_irqoff() will be unhelpful.
3. a. in_interrupt(): If this returns true, the subsequent
call to raise_softirq_irqoff() is guaranteed not to
do a wakeup, so that call will be both very cheap and
quite safe.
b. Otherwise, if !in_interrupt() the raise_softirq_irqoff()
might do a wakeup, which is expensive and, in some
contexts, unsafe.
i. The "exp" (an expedited RCU grace period is being
blocked) says that the wakeup is worthwhile, and:
ii. The !.deferred_qs says that scheduler locks
cannot be held, so the wakeup will be safe.
Backporting this requires considerable care, so no auto-backport, please!

In !use_softirq runs, we clearly cannot rely on raise_softirq() and
its lightweight bit setting, so we must instead do some form of wakeup.
In the absence of a self-IPI when interrupts are disabled, these wakeups
can be delayed until the next interrupt occurs. This means that calling
invoke_rcu_core() doesn't actually do any expediting.
In this case, it is better to take the "else" clause, which sets the
current CPU's resched bits and, if there is an expedited grace period
in flight, uses IRQ-work to force the needed self-IPI. This commit
therefore removes the "else if" clause that calls invoke_rcu_core().

Since we always allocate memory, allocate just a little bit more
for the BPF program in case it need to override user input with
bigger value. The canonical example is TCP_CONGESTION where
input string might be too small to override (nv -> bbr or cubic).
16 bytes are chosen to match the size of TCP_CA_NAME_MAX and can
be extended in the future if needed.

This adds the P_PIDFD type to waitid().
One of the last remaining bits for the pidfd api is to make it possible
to wait on pidfds. With P_PIDFD added to waitid() the parts of userspace
that want to use the pidfd api to exclusively manage processes can do so
now.
One of the things this will unblock in the future is the ability to make
it possible to retrieve the exit status via waitid(P_PIDFD) for
non-parent processes if handed a _suitable_ pidfd that has this feature
set. This is similar to what you can do on FreeBSD with kqueue(). It
might even end up being possible to wait on a process as a non-parent if
an appropriate property is enabled on the pidfd.
With P_PIDFD no scoping of the process identified by the pidfd is
possible, i.e. it explicitly blocks things such as wait4(-1), wait4(0),
waitid(P_ALL), waitid(P_PGID) etc. It only allows for semantics
equivalent to wait4(pid), waitid(P_PID). Users that need scoping should
rely on pid-based wait*() syscalls for now.

Timer deletion on PREEMPT_RT is prone to priority inversion and live
locks. The hrtimer code has a synchronization mechanism for this. Posix CPU
timers will grow one.
But that mechanism cannot be invoked while holding the k_itimer lock
because that can deadlock against the running timer callback. So the lock
must be dropped which allows the timer to be freed.
The timer free can be prevented by taking RCU readlock before dropping the
lock, but because the rcu_head is part of the 'it' union a concurrent free
will overwrite the hrtimer on which the task is trying to synchronize.
Move the rcu_head out of the union to prevent this.

When PREEMPT_RT is enabled, the soft interrupt thread can be preempted. If
the soft interrupt thread is preempted in the middle of a timer callback,
then calling del_timer_sync() can lead to two issues:
- If the caller is on a remote CPU then it has to spin wait for the timer
handler to complete. This can result in unbound priority inversion.
- If the caller originates from the task which preempted the timer
handler on the same CPU, then spin waiting for the timer handler to
complete is never going to end.
To avoid these issues, add a new lock to the timer base which is held
around the execution of the timer callbacks. If del_timer_sync() detects
that the timer callback is currently running, it blocks on the expiry
lock. When the callback is finished, the expiry lock is dropped by the
softirq thread which wakes up the waiter and the system makes progress.
This addresses both the priority inversion and the life lock issues.
This mechanism is not used for timers which are marked IRQSAFE as for those
preemption is disabled accross the callback and therefore this situation
cannot happen. The callbacks for such timers need to be individually
audited for RT compliance.
The same issue can happen in virtual machines when the vCPU which runs a
timer callback is scheduled out. If a second vCPU of the same guest calls
del_timer_sync() it will spin wait for the other vCPU to be scheduled back
in. The expiry lock mechanism would avoid that. It'd be trivial to enable
this when paravirt spinlocks are enabled in a guest, but it's not clear
whether this is an actual problem in the wild, so for now it's an RT only
mechanism.
As the softirq thread can be preempted with PREEMPT_RT=y, the SMP variant
of del_timer_sync() needs to be used on UP as well.

On PREEMPT_RT enabled kernels hrtimers which are not explicitely marked for
hard interrupt expiry mode are moved into soft interrupt context either for
latency reasons or because the hrtimer callback takes regular spinlocks or
invokes other functions which are not suitable for hard interrupt context
on PREEMPT_RT.
The hrtimer_sleeper callback is RT compatible in hard interrupt context,
but there is a latency concern: Untrusted userspace can spawn many threads
which arm timers for the same expiry time on the same CPU. On expiry that
causes a latency spike due to the wakeup of a gazillion threads.
OTOH, priviledged real-time user space applications rely on the low latency
of hard interrupt wakeups. These syscall related wakeups are all based on
hrtimer sleepers.
If the current task is in a real-time scheduling class, mark the mode for
hard interrupt expiry.

On PREEMPT_RT not all hrtimers can be expired in hard interrupt context
even if that is perfectly fine on a PREEMPT_RT=n kernel, e.g. because they
take regular spinlocks. Also for latency reasons PREEMPT_RT tries to defer
most hrtimers' expiry into softirq context.
hrtimers marked with HRTIMER_MODE_HARD must be kept in hard interrupt
context expiry mode. Add the required logic.
No functional change for PREEMPT_RT=n kernels.

hrtimer_start_range_ns() has a WARN_ONCE() which verifies that a timer
which is marker for softirq expiry is not queued in the hard interrupt base
and vice versa.
When PREEMPT_RT is enabled, timers which are not explicitely marked to
expire in hard interrupt context are deferrred to the soft interrupt. So
the regular check would trigger.
Change the check, so when PREEMPT_RT is enabled, it is verified that the

Since commit b191d6491be6 ("pidfd: fix a poll race when setting exit_state")
we unconditionally set exit_state to EXIT_ZOMBIE before calling into
do_notify_parent(). This was done to eliminate a race when querying
exit_state in do_notify_pidfd().
Back then we decided to do the absolute minimal thing to fix this and
not touch the rest of the exit_notify() function where exit_state is
set.
Since this fix has not caused any issues change the setting of
exit_state to EXIT_DEAD in the autoreap case to account for the fact hat
exit_state is set to EXIT_ZOMBIE unconditionally. This fix was planned
but also explicitly requested in [1] and makes the whole code more
consistent.

module_alloc() allocations for security hardening reasons. That means
that the module loader will need to set the text section of a module to
executable, regardless of whether or not CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX is set.
When CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX=y, module section allocations are always
page-aligned to handle memory rwx permissions. On some arches with
CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX=n however, when setting the module text to
executable, the BUG_ON() in frob_text() gets triggered since module
section allocations are not page-aligned when CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX=n.
Since the set_memory_* API works with pages, and since we need to call
set_memory_x() regardless of whether CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX is set, we
might as well page-align all module section allocations for ease of
managing rwx permissions of module sections (text, rodata, etc).

A common pattern when using xdp_redirect_map() is to create a device map
where the lookup key is simply ifindex. Because device maps are arrays,
this leaves holes in the map, and the map has to be sized to fit the
largest ifindex, regardless of how many devices actually are actually
needed in the map.
This patch adds a second type of device map where the key is looked up
using a hashmap, instead of being used as an array index. This allows maps
to be densely packed, so they can be smaller.

Previously a condition got missed where the pidfd waiters are awakened
before the exit_state gets set. This can result in a missed notification
[1] and the polling thread waiting forever.
It is fixed now, however it would be nice to avoid this kind of issue
going unnoticed in the future. So just add a warning to catch it in the
future.

According to the original dma_direct_alloc_pages() code:
{
unsigned int count = PAGE_ALIGN(size) >> PAGE_SHIFT;
if (!dma_release_from_contiguous(dev, page, count))
__free_pages(page, get_order(size));
}
The count parameter for dma_release_from_contiguous() was page
aligned before the right-shifting operation, while the new API
dma_free_contiguous() forgets to have PAGE_ALIGN() at the size.
So this patch simply adds it to prevent any corner case.

The dma_alloc_contiguous() limits align at CONFIG_CMA_ALIGNMENT for
cma_alloc() however it does not restore it for the fallback routine.
This will result in a size mismatch between the allocation and free
when running into the fallback routines after cma_alloc() fails, if
the align is larger than CONFIG_CMA_ALIGNMENT.
This patch adds a cma_align to take care of cma_alloc() and prevent
the align from being overwritten.

The function padata_reorder will use a timer when it cannot progress
while completed jobs are outstanding (pd->reorder_objects > 0). This
is suboptimal as if we do end up using the timer then it would have
introduced a gratuitous delay of one second.
In fact we can easily distinguish between whether completed jobs
are outstanding and whether we can make progress. All we have to
do is look at the next pqueue list.
This patch does that by replacing pd->processed with pd->cpu so
that the next pqueue is more accessible.
A work queue is used instead of the original try_again to avoid
hogging the CPU.
Note that we don't bother removing the work queue in
padata_flush_queues because the whole premise is broken. You
cannot flush async crypto requests so it makes no sense to even
try. A subsequent patch will fix it by replacing it with a ref
counting scheme.

The access() (and faccessat()) credentials change can cause an
unnecessary load on the RCU machinery because every access() call ends
up freeing the temporary access credential using RCU.
This isn't really noticeable on small machines, but if you have hundreds
of cores you can cause huge slowdowns due to RCU storms.
It's easy to avoid: the temporary access crededntials aren't actually
normally accessed using RCU at all, so we can avoid the whole issue by
just marking them as such.

On !CONFIG_RT_GROUP_SCHED configurations it is currently not possible to
move RT tasks between cgroups to which CPU controller has been attached;
but it is oddly possible to first move tasks around and then make them
RT (setschedule to FIFO/RR).
E.g.:
# mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu,cpuacct/group1
# chrt -fp 10 $$
# echo $$ > /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu,cpuacct/group1/tasks
bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
# chrt -op 0 $$
# echo $$ > /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu,cpuacct/group1/tasks
# chrt -fp 10 $$
# cat /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu,cpuacct/group1/tasks
2345
2598
# chrt -p 2345
pid 2345's current scheduling policy: SCHED_FIFO
pid 2345's current scheduling priority: 10
Also, as Michal noted, it is currently not possible to enable CPU
controller on unified hierarchy with !CONFIG_RT_GROUP_SCHED (if there
are any kernel RT threads in root cgroup, they can't be migrated to the
newly created CPU controller's root in cgroup_update_dfl_csses()).
Existing code comes with a comment saying the "we don't support RT-tasks
being in separate groups". Such comment is however stale and belongs to
pre-RT_GROUP_SCHED times. Also, it doesn't make much sense for
!RT_GROUP_ SCHED configurations, since checks related to RT bandwidth
are not performed at all in these cases.
Make moving RT tasks between CPU controller groups viable by removing
special case check for RT (and DEADLINE) tasks.

No synchronisation mechanism exists between the cpuset subsystem and
calls to function __sched_setscheduler(). As such, it is possible that
new root domains are created on the cpuset side while a deadline
acceptance test is carried out in __sched_setscheduler(), leading to a
potential oversell of CPU bandwidth.
Grab cpuset_rwsem read lock from core scheduler, so to prevent
situations such as the one described above from happening.
The only exception is normalize_rt_tasks() which needs to work under
tasklist_lock and can't therefore grab cpuset_rwsem. We are fine with
this, as this function is only called by sysrq and, if that gets
triggered, DEADLINE guarantees are already gone out of the window
anyway.

cpuset_rwsem is going to be acquired from sched_setscheduler() with a
following patch. There are however paths (e.g., spawn_ksoftirqd) in
which sched_scheduler() is eventually called while holding hotplug lock;
this creates a dependecy between hotplug lock (to be always acquired
first) and cpuset_rwsem (to be always acquired after hotplug lock).
Fix paths which currently take the two locks in the wrong order (after
a following patch is applied).

Holding cpuset_mutex means that cpusets are stable (only the holder can
make changes) and this is required for fixing a synchronization issue
between cpusets and scheduler core. However, grabbing cpuset_mutex from
setscheduler() hotpath (as implemented in a later patch) is a no-go, as
it would create a bottleneck for tasks concurrently calling
setscheduler().
Convert cpuset_mutex to be a percpu_rwsem (cpuset_rwsem), so that
setscheduler() will then be able to read lock it and avoid concurrency
issues.
