move_queued_task() synchronizes with task_rq_lock() as follows:
move_queued_task() task_rq_lock()
[S] ->on_rq = MIGRATING [L] rq = task_rq()
WMB (__set_task_cpu()) ACQUIRE (rq->lock);
[S] ->cpu = new_cpu [L] ->on_rq
where "[L] rq = task_rq()" is ordered before "ACQUIRE (rq->lock)" by an
address dependency and, in turn, "ACQUIRE (rq->lock)" is ordered before
"[L] ->on_rq" by the ACQUIRE itself.
Use READ_ONCE() to load ->cpu in task_rq() (c.f., task_cpu()) to honor
this address dependency. Also, mark the accesses to ->cpu and ->on_rq
with READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() to comply with the LKMM.

register_sched_domain_sysctl() copies the cpu_possible_mask into
sd_sysctl_cpus, but only if sd_sysctl_cpus hasn't already been
allocated (ie, CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK is set). However, when
CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK is not set, sd_sysctl_cpus is left
uninitialized (all zeroes) and the kernel may fail to initialize
sched_domain sysctl entries for all possible CPUs.
This is visible to the user if the kernel is booted with maxcpus=n, or
if ACPI tables have been modified to leave CPUs offline, and then
checking for missing /proc/sys/kernel/sched_domain/cpu* entries.
Fix this by separating the allocation and initialization, and adding a
flag to initialize the possible CPU entries while system booting only.

capacity
util_est is mainly meant to be a lower-bound for tasks utilization.
That's why task_util_est() returns the actual util_avg when it's higher
than the estimated utilization.
With new invaraince signal and without any special check on samples
collection, if a task is limited because of thermal capping for
example, we could end up overestimating its utilization and thus
perhaps generating an unwanted frequency spike when the capping is
relaxed... and (even worst) it will take some more activations for the
estimated utilization to converge back to the actual utilization.
Since we cannot easily know if there is idle time in a CPU when a task
completes an activation with a utilization higher then the CPU capacity,
we skip the sampling when utilization is higher than CPU's capacity.

The current implementation of load tracking invariance scales the
contribution with current frequency and uarch performance (only for
utilization) of the CPU. One main result of this formula is that the
figures are capped by current capacity of CPU. Another one is that the
load_avg is not invariant because not scaled with uarch.
The util_avg of a periodic task that runs r time slots every p time slots
varies in the range :
U * (1-y^r)/(1-y^p) * y^i < Utilization < U * (1-y^r)/(1-y^p)
with U is the max util_avg value = SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE
At a lower capacity, the range becomes:
U * C * (1-y^r')/(1-y^p) * y^i' < Utilization < U * C * (1-y^r')/(1-y^p)
with C reflecting the compute capacity ratio between current capacity and
max capacity.
so C tries to compensate changes in (1-y^r') but it can't be accurate.
Instead of scaling the contribution value of PELT algo, we should scale the
running time. The PELT signal aims to track the amount of computation of
tasks and/or rq so it seems more correct to scale the running time to
reflect the effective amount of computation done since the last update.
In order to be fully invariant, we need to apply the same amount of
running time and idle time whatever the current capacity. Because running
at lower capacity implies that the task will run longer, we have to ensure
that the same amount of idle time will be applied when system becomes idle
and no idle time has been "stolen". But reaching the maximum utilization
value (SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE) means that the task is seen as an
always-running task whatever the capacity of the CPU (even at max compute
capacity). In this case, we can discard this "stolen" idle times which
becomes meaningless.
In order to achieve this time scaling, a new clock_pelt is created per rq.
The increase of this clock scales with current capacity when something
is running on rq and synchronizes with clock_task when rq is idle. With
this mechanism, we ensure the same running and idle time whatever the
current capacity. This also enables to simplify the pelt algorithm by
removing all references of uarch and frequency and applying the same
contribution to utilization and loads. Furthermore, the scaling is done
only once per update of clock (update_rq_clock_task()) instead of during
each update of sched_entities and cfs/rt/dl_rq of the rq like the current
implementation. This is interesting when cgroup are involved as shown in
the results below:
On a hikey (octo Arm64 platform).
Performance cpufreq governor and only shallowest c-state to remove variance
generated by those power features so we only track the impact of pelt algo.
each test runs 16 times:
./perf bench sched pipe
(higher is better)

cgroup

level2 52115(+/- 0.29%) 52564(+/- 0.22%) +0.86%

level2 5.063(+/- 9.83%) 4.928(+/- 9.66%) -2.66%
Then, the responsiveness of PELT is improved when CPU is not running at max
capacity with this new algorithm. I have put below some examples of
duration to reach some typical load values according to the capacity of the
CPU with current implementation and with this patch. These values has been
computed based on the geometric series and the half period value:
Util (%) max capacity half capacity(mainline) half capacity(w/ patch)
972 (95%) 138ms not reachable 276ms
486 (47.5%) 30ms 138ms 60ms
256 (25%) 13ms 32ms 26ms
On my hikey (octo Arm64 platform) with schedutil governor, the time to
reach max OPP when starting from a null utilization, decreases from 223ms
with current scale invariance down to 121ms with the new algorithm.

Four queue nodes per CPU are allocated to enable up to 4 nesting levels
using the per-CPU nodes. Nested NMIs are possible in some architectures.
Still it is very unlikely that we will ever hit more than 4 nested
levels with contention in the slowpath.
When that rare condition happens, however, it is likely that the system
will hang or crash shortly after that. It is not good and we need to
handle this exception case.
This is done by spinning directly on the lock using repeated trylock.
This alternative code path should only be used when there is nested
NMIs. Assuming that the locks used by those NMI handlers will not be
heavily contended, a simple TAS locking should work out.

Some users, specifically futexes and rwsems, required fixes
that allowed the callers to be safe when wakeups occur before
they are expected by wake_up_q(). Such scenarios also play
games and rely on reference counting, and until now were
pivoting on wake_q doing it. With the wake_q_add() call being
moved down, this can no longer be the case. As such we end up
with a a double task refcounting overhead; and these callers
care enough about this (being rather core-ish).
This patch introduces a wake_q_add_safe() call that serves
for callers that have already done refcounting and therefore the
task is 'safe' from wake_q point of view (int that it requires
reference throughout the entire queue/>wakeup cycle). In the one
case it has internal reference counting, in the other case it
consumes the reference counting.

Tetsuo Handa had reported he saw an incorrect "downgrading a read lock"
warning right after a previous lockdep warning. It is likely that the
previous warning turned off lock debugging causing the lockdep to have
inconsistency states leading to the lock downgrade warning.
Fix that by add a check for debug_locks at the beginning of
__lock_downgrade().

atomic_t variables are currently used to implement reference
counters with the following properties:
- counter is initialized to 1 using atomic_set()
- a resource is freed upon counter reaching zero
- once counter reaches zero, its further
increments aren't allowed
- counter schema uses basic atomic operations
(set, inc, inc_not_zero, dec_and_test, etc.)
Such atomic variables should be converted to a newly provided
refcount_t type and API that prevents accidental counter overflows
and underflows. This is important since overflows and underflows
can lead to use-after-free situation and be exploitable.
The variable task_struct.stack_refcount is used as pure reference counter.
Convert it to refcount_t and fix up the operations.
** Important note for maintainers:
Some functions from refcount_t API defined in lib/refcount.c
have different memory ordering guarantees than their atomic
counterparts.
The full comparison can be seen in
https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/11/15/57 and it is hopefully soon
in state to be merged to the documentation tree.
Normally the differences should not matter since refcount_t provides
enough guarantees to satisfy the refcounting use cases, but in
some rare cases it might matter.
Please double check that you don't have some undocumented
memory guarantees for this variable usage.
For the task_struct.stack_refcount it might make a difference
in following places:
- try_get_task_stack(): increment in refcount_inc_not_zero() only
guarantees control dependency on success vs. fully ordered
atomic counterpart
- put_task_stack(): decrement in refcount_dec_and_test() only
provides RELEASE ordering and control dependency on success
vs. fully ordered atomic counterpart

** Important note for maintainers:
Some functions from refcount_t API defined in lib/refcount.c
have different memory ordering guarantees than their atomic
counterparts.
The full comparison can be seen in
https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/11/15/57 and it is hopefully soon

memory guarantees for this variable usage.
For the sighand_struct.count it might make a difference
in following places:
- __cleanup_sighand: decrement in refcount_dec_and_test() only
provides RELEASE ordering and control dependency on success
vs. fully ordered atomic counterpart

atomic_t variables are currently used to implement reference
counters with the following properties:
- counter is initialized to 1 using atomic_set()
- a resource is freed upon counter reaching zero
- once counter reaches zero, its further
increments aren't allowed
- counter schema uses basic atomic operations
(set, inc, inc_not_zero, dec_and_test, etc.)
Such atomic variables should be converted to a newly provided
refcount_t type and API that prevents accidental counter overflows
and underflows. This is important since overflows and underflows
can lead to use-after-free situation and be exploitable.

The perf tool uses /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_mlock_kb to determine how
large its ringbuffer mmap should be. This can be configured to arbitrary
values, which can be larger than the maximum possible allocation from
kmalloc.
When this is configured to a suitably large value (e.g. thanks to the
perf fuzzer), attempting to use perf record triggers a WARN_ON_ONCE() in
__alloc_pages_nodemask():
WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 5666 at mm/page_alloc.c:4511 __alloc_pages_nodemask+0x3f8/0xbc8
Let's avoid this by checking that the requested allocation is possible
before calling kzalloc.

psi has provisions to shut off the periodic aggregation worker when
there is a period of no task activity - and thus no data that needs
aggregating. However, while developing psi monitoring, Suren noticed
that the aggregation clock currently won't stay shut off for good.
Debugging this revealed a flaw in the idle design: an aggregation run
will see no task activity and decide to go to sleep; shortly thereafter,
the kworker thread that executed the aggregation will go idle and cause
a scheduling change, during which the psi callback will kick the
!pending worker again. This will ping-pong forever, and is equivalent
to having no shut-off logic at all (but with more code!)
Fix this by exempting aggregation workers from psi's clock waking logic
when the state change is them going to sleep. To do this, tag workers
with the last work function they executed, and if in psi we see a worker
going to sleep after aggregating psi data, we will not reschedule the
aggregation work item.
What if the worker is also executing other items before or after?
Any psi state times that were incurred by work items preceding the
aggregation work will have been collected from the per-cpu buckets
during the aggregation itself. If there are work items following the
aggregation work, the worker's last_func tag will be overwritten and the
aggregator will be kept alive to process this genuine new activity.
If the aggregation work is the last thing the worker does, and we decide
to go idle, the brief period of non-idle time incurred between the
aggregation run and the kworker's dequeue will be stranded in the
per-cpu buckets until the clock is woken by later activity. But that
should not be a problem. The buckets can hold 4s worth of time, and
future activity will wake the clock with a 2s delay, giving us 2s worth
of data we can leave behind when disabling aggregation. If it takes a
worker more than two seconds to go idle after it finishes its last work
item, we likely have bigger problems in the system, and won't notice one
sample that was averaged with a bogus per-CPU weight.

Currently, exit_ptrace() adds all ptraced tasks in a dead list, then
zap_pid_ns_processes() waits on all tasks in a current pidns, and only
then are tasks from the dead list released.
zap_pid_ns_processes() can get stuck on waiting tasks from the dead

Introduce BPF_F_LOCK flag for map_lookup and map_update syscall commands
and for map_update() helper function.
In all these cases take a lock of existing element (which was provided
in BTF description) before copying (in or out) the rest of map value.
Implementation details that are part of uapi:
Array:
The array map takes the element lock for lookup/update.
Hash:
hash map also takes the lock for lookup/update and tries to avoid the bucket lock.
If old element exists it takes the element lock and updates the element in place.
If element doesn't exist it allocates new one and inserts into hash table
while holding the bucket lock.
In rare case the hashmap has to take both the bucket lock and the element lock
to update old value in place.
Cgroup local storage:
It is similar to array. update in place and lookup are done with lock taken.

Introduce 'struct bpf_spin_lock' and bpf_spin_lock/unlock() helpers to let
bpf program serialize access to other variables.
Example:
struct hash_elem {
int cnt;
struct bpf_spin_lock lock;
};
struct hash_elem * val = bpf_map_lookup_elem(&hash_map, &key);
if (val) {
bpf_spin_lock(&val->lock);
val->cnt++;
bpf_spin_unlock(&val->lock);
}
Restrictions and safety checks:
- bpf_spin_lock is only allowed inside HASH and ARRAY maps.
- BTF description of the map is mandatory for safety analysis.
- bpf program can take one bpf_spin_lock at a time, since two or more can
cause dead locks.
- only one 'struct bpf_spin_lock' is allowed per map element.
It drastically simplifies implementation yet allows bpf program to use
any number of bpf_spin_locks.
- when bpf_spin_lock is taken the calls (either bpf2bpf or helpers) are not allowed.
- bpf program must bpf_spin_unlock() before return.
- bpf program can access 'struct bpf_spin_lock' only via
bpf_spin_lock()/bpf_spin_unlock() helpers.
- load/store into 'struct bpf_spin_lock lock;' field is not allowed.
- to use bpf_spin_lock() helper the BTF description of map value must be
a struct and have 'struct bpf_spin_lock anyname;' field at the top level.
Nested lock inside another struct is not allowed.
- syscall map_lookup doesn't copy bpf_spin_lock field to user space.
- syscall map_update and program map_update do not update bpf_spin_lock field.
- bpf_spin_lock cannot be on the stack or inside networking packet.
bpf_spin_lock can only be inside HASH or ARRAY map value.
- bpf_spin_lock is available to root only and to all program types.
- bpf_spin_lock is not allowed in inner maps of map-in-map.
- ld_abs is not allowed inside spin_lock-ed region.
- tracing progs and socket filter progs cannot use bpf_spin_lock due to
insufficient preemption checks
Implementation details:
- cgroup-bpf class of programs can nest with xdp/tc programs.
Hence bpf_spin_lock is equivalent to spin_lock_irqsave.
Other solutions to avoid nested bpf_spin_lock are possible.
Like making sure that all networking progs run with softirq disabled.
spin_lock_irqsave is the simplest and doesn't add overhead to the
programs that don't use it.
- arch_spinlock_t is used when its implemented as queued_spin_lock
- archs can force their own arch_spinlock_t
- on architectures where queued_spin_lock is not available and
sizeof(arch_spinlock_t) != sizeof(__u32) trivial lock is used.
- presence of bpf_spin_lock inside map value could have been indicated via
extra flag during map_create, but specifying it via BTF is cleaner.
It provides introspection for map key/value and reduces user mistakes.
Next steps:
- allow bpf_spin_lock in other map types (like cgroup local storage)
- introduce BPF_F_LOCK flag for bpf_map_update() syscall and helper
to request kernel to grab bpf_spin_lock before rewriting the value.
That will serialize access to map elements.

The map_lookup_elem used to not acquiring spinlock
in order to optimize the reader.
It was true until commit 557c0c6e7df8 ("bpf: convert stackmap to pre-allocation")
The syscall's map_lookup_elem(stackmap) calls bpf_stackmap_copy().
bpf_stackmap_copy() may find the elem no longer needed after the copy is done.
If that is the case, pcpu_freelist_push() saves this elem for reuse later.
This push requires a spinlock.
If a tracing bpf_prog got run in the middle of the syscall's
map_lookup_elem(stackmap) and this tracing bpf_prog is calling
bpf_get_stackid(stackmap) which also requires the same pcpu_freelist's
spinlock, it may end up with a dead lock situation as reported by
Eric Dumazet in https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/1030266/
The situation is the same as the syscall's map_update_elem() which
needs to acquire the pcpu_freelist's spinlock and could race
with tracing bpf_prog. Hence, this patch fixes it by protecting
bpf_stackmap_copy() with this_cpu_inc(bpf_prog_active)
to prevent tracing bpf_prog from running.
A later syscall's map_lookup_elem commit f1a2e44a3aec ("bpf: add queue and stack maps")
also acquires a spinlock and races with tracing bpf_prog similarly.
Hence, this patch is forward looking and protects the majority
of the map lookups. bpf_map_offload_lookup_elem() is the exception
since it is for network bpf_prog only (i.e. never called by tracing
bpf_prog).

Since tracepoints_mutex will be taken in tracepoint_probe_register/unregister()
there is no need to take bpf_event_mutex too.
bpf_event_mutex is protecting modifications to prog array used in kprobe/perf bpf progs.
bpf_raw_tracepoints don't need to take this mutex.

It has been explained that is a false positive here:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/7/25/756
Recap:
- stackmap uses pcpu_freelist
- The lock in pcpu_freelist is a percpu lock
- stackmap is only used by tracing bpf_prog
- A tracing bpf_prog cannot be run if another bpf_prog
has already been running (ensured by the percpu bpf_prog_active counter).
Eric pointed out that this lockdep splats stops other
legit lockdep splats in selftests/bpf/test_progs.c.
Fix this by calling local_irq_save/restore for stackmap.
Another false positive had also been worked around by calling
local_irq_save in commit 89ad2fa3f043 ("bpf: fix lockdep splat").
That commit added unnecessary irq_save/restore to fast path of
bpf hash map. irqs are already disabled at that point, since htab
is holding per bucket spin_lock with irqsave.
Let's reduce overhead for htab by introducing __pcpu_freelist_push/pop
function w/o irqsave and convert pcpu_freelist_push/pop to irqsave
to be used elsewhere (right now only in stackmap).
It stops lockdep false positive in stackmap with a bit of acceptable overhead.

Disabled preemption is necessary for proper access to per-cpu maps
from BPF programs.
But the sender side of socket filters didn't have preemption disabled:
unix_dgram_sendmsg->sk_filter->sk_filter_trim_cap->bpf_prog_run_save_cb->BPF_PROG_RUN
and a combination of af_packet with tun device didn't disable either:
tpacket_snd->packet_direct_xmit->packet_pick_tx_queue->ndo_select_queue->
tun_select_queue->tun_ebpf_select_queue->bpf_prog_run_clear_cb->BPF_PROG_RUN
Disable preemption before executing BPF programs (both classic and extended).

the accounting
The only user of cgroup_subsys->free() callback is pids_cgrp_subsys which
needs pids_free() to uncharge the pid.
However, ->free() is called from __put_task_struct()->cgroup_free() and this
is too late. Even the trivial program which does
for (;;) {
int pid = fork();
assert(pid >= 0);
if (pid)
wait(NULL);
else
exit(0);
}
can run out of limits because release_task()->call_rcu(delayed_put_task_struct)
implies an RCU gp after the task/pid goes away and before the final put().
Test-case:

Without this patch the forking process fails soon after migration.
Rename cgroup_subsys->free() to cgroup_subsys->release() and move the callsite
into the new helper, cgroup_release(), called by release_task() which actually
frees the pid(s).

Introduce four new variants of the async_schedule_ functions that allow
scheduling on a specific NUMA node.
The first two functions are async_schedule_near and
async_schedule_near_domain end up mapping to async_schedule and
async_schedule_domain, but provide NUMA node specific functionality. They
replace the original functions which were moved to inline function
definitions that call the new functions while passing NUMA_NO_NODE.
The second two functions are async_schedule_dev and
async_schedule_dev_domain which provide NUMA specific functionality when
passing a device as the data member and that device has a NUMA node other
than NUMA_NO_NODE.
The main motivation behind this is to address the need to be able to
schedule device specific init work on specific NUMA nodes in order to
improve performance of memory initialization.
I have seen a significant improvement in initialziation time for persistent
memory as a result of this approach. In the case of 3TB of memory on a
single node the initialization time in the worst case went from 36s down to
about 26s for a 10s improvement. As such the data shows a general benefit
for affinitizing the async work to the node local to the device.

Provide a new function, queue_work_node, which is meant to schedule work on
a "random" CPU of the requested NUMA node. The main motivation for this is
to help assist asynchronous init to better improve boot times for devices
that are local to a specific node.
For now we just default to the first CPU that is in the intersection of the
cpumask of the node and the online cpumask. The only exception is if the
CPU is local to the node we will just use the current CPU. This should work
for our purposes as we are currently only using this for unbound work so
the CPU will be translated to a node anyway instead of being directly used.
As we are only using the first CPU to represent the NUMA node for now I am
limiting the scope of the function so that it can only be used with unbound
workqueues.

If create_buf_file() returns an error, don't try to reference it later
as a valid dentry pointer.
This problem was exposed when debugfs started to return errors instead
of just NULL for some calls when they do not succeed properly.
Also, the check for WARN_ON(dentry) was just wrong :)

Building with W=1 reveals some bitrot:
CC kernel/bpf/cgroup.o

kernel/bpf/cgroup.c:367: warning: Function parameter or member 'unused_flags' not described in '__cgroup_bpf_detach'
Add a kerneldoc line for 'flags'.
Fixing the warning for 'unused_flags' is best approached by
removing the unused parameter on the function call.

Don't fetch fcaps when umount2 is called to avoid a process hang while
it waits for the missing resource to (possibly never) re-appear.
Note the comment above user_path_mountpoint_at():
* A umount is a special case for path walking. We're not actually interested
* in the inode in this situation, and ESTALE errors can be a problem. We
* simply want track down the dentry and vfsmount attached at the mountpoint
* and avoid revalidating the last component.
This can happen on ceph, cifs, 9p, lustre, fuse (gluster) or NFS.

With the following commit:
73d5e2b47264 ("cpu/hotplug: detect SMT disabled by BIOS")
... the hotplug code attempted to detect when SMT was disabled by BIOS,
in which case it reported SMT as permanently disabled. However, that
code broke a virt hotplug scenario, where the guest is booted with only
primary CPU threads, and a sibling is brought online later.
The problem is that there doesn't seem to be a way to reliably
distinguish between the HW "SMT disabled by BIOS" case and the virt
"sibling not yet brought online" case. So the above-mentioned commit
was a bit misguided, as it permanently disabled SMT for both cases,
preventing future virt sibling hotplugs.
Going back and reviewing the original problems which were attempted to
be solved by that commit, when SMT was disabled in BIOS:
1) /sys/devices/system/cpu/smt/control showed "on" instead of
"notsupported"; and
2) vmx_vm_init() was incorrectly showing the L1TF_MSG_SMT warning.
I'd propose that we instead consider #1 above to not actually be a
problem. Because, at least in the virt case, it's possible that SMT
wasn't disabled by BIOS and a sibling thread could be brought online
later. So it makes sense to just always default the smt control to "on"
to allow for that possibility (assuming cpuid indicates that the CPU
supports SMT).
The real problem is #2, which has a simple fix: change vmx_vm_init() to
query the actual current SMT state -- i.e., whether any siblings are
currently online -- instead of looking at the SMT "control" sysfs value.
So fix it by:
a) reverting the original "fix" and its followup fix:
73d5e2b47264 ("cpu/hotplug: detect SMT disabled by BIOS")
bc2d8d262cba ("cpu/hotplug: Fix SMT supported evaluation")
and
b) changing vmx_vm_init() to query the actual current SMT state --
instead of the sysfs control value -- to determine whether the L1TF
warning is needed. This also requires the 'sched_smt_present'
variable to exported, instead of 'cpu_smt_control'.
