Rename sum_nr_running to sum_h_nr_running because it effectively tracks
cfs->h_nr_running so we can use sum_nr_running to track rq->nr_running
when needed.

Clean up asym packing to follow the default load balance behavior:
- classify the group by creating a group_asym_packing field.
- calculate the imbalance in calculate_imbalance() instead of bypassing it.
We don't need to test twice same conditions anymore to detect asym packing
and we consolidate the calculation of imbalance in calculate_imbalance().
There is no functional changes.

Introduce frequency QoS, based on the "raw" low-level PM QoS, to
represent min and max frequency requests and aggregate constraints.
The min and max frequency requests are to be represented by
struct freq_qos_request objects and the aggregate constraints are to
be represented by struct freq_constraints objects. The latter are
expected to be initialized with the help of freq_constraints_init().
The freq_qos_read_value() helper is defined to retrieve the aggregate
constraints values from a given struct freq_constraints object and
there are the freq_qos_add_request(), freq_qos_update_request() and
freq_qos_remove_request() helpers to manipulate the min and max
frequency requests. It is assumed that the the helpers will not
run concurrently with each other for the same struct freq_qos_request
object, so if that may be the case, their uses must ensure proper
synchronization between them (e.g. through locking).
In addition, freq_qos_add_notifier() and freq_qos_remove_notifier()
are provided to add and remove notifiers that will trigger on aggregate
constraint changes to and from a given struct freq_constraints object,
respectively.

When looking for a bit by number we make use of the cached result from the
preceding lookup to speed up operation. Firstly we check if the requested
pfn is within the cached zone and if not lookup the new zone. We then
check if the offset for that pfn falls within the existing cached node.
This happens regardless of whether the node is within the zone we are
now scanning. With certain memory layouts it is possible for this to
false trigger creating a temporary alias for the pfn to a different bit.
This leads the hibernation code to free memory which it was never allocated
with the expected fallout.
Ensure the zone we are scanning matches the cached zone before considering
the cached node.
Deep thanks go to Andrea for many, many, many hours of hacking and testing
that went into cornering this bug.

Attaching uprobe to text section in THP splits the PMD mapped page table
into PTE mapped entries. On uprobe detach, we would like to regroup PMD
mapped page table entry to regain performance benefit of THP.
However, the regroup is broken For perf_event based trace_uprobe. This
is because perf_event based trace_uprobe calls uprobe_unregister twice
on close: first in TRACE_REG_PERF_CLOSE, then in
TRACE_REG_PERF_UNREGISTER. The second call will split the PMD mapped
page table entry, which is not the desired behavior.
Fix this by only use FOLL_SPLIT_PMD for uprobe register case.
Add a WARN() to confirm uprobe unregister never work on huge pages, and
abort the operation when this WARN() triggers.

In current mainline, the degree of access to perf_event_open(2) system
call depends on the perf_event_paranoid sysctl. This has a number of
limitations:
1. The sysctl is only a single value. Many types of accesses are controlled
based on the single value thus making the control very limited and
coarse grained.
2. The sysctl is global, so if the sysctl is changed, then that means
all processes get access to perf_event_open(2) opening the door to
security issues.
This patch adds LSM and SELinux access checking which will be used in
Android to access perf_event_open(2) for the purposes of attaching BPF
programs to tracepoints, perf profiling and other operations from
userspace. These operations are intended for production systems.
5 new LSM hooks are added:
1. perf_event_open: This controls access during the perf_event_open(2)
syscall itself. The hook is called from all the places that the
perf_event_paranoid sysctl is checked to keep it consistent with the
systctl. The hook gets passed a 'type' argument which controls CPU,
kernel and tracepoint accesses (in this context, CPU, kernel and
tracepoint have the same semantics as the perf_event_paranoid sysctl).
Additionally, I added an 'open' type which is similar to
perf_event_paranoid sysctl == 3 patch carried in Android and several other
distros but was rejected in mainline [1] in 2016.
2. perf_event_alloc: This allocates a new security object for the event
which stores the current SID within the event. It will be useful when
the perf event's FD is passed through IPC to another process which may
try to read the FD. Appropriate security checks will limit access.
3. perf_event_free: Called when the event is closed.
4. perf_event_read: Called from the read(2) and mmap(2) syscalls for the event.
5. perf_event_write: Called from the ioctl(2) syscalls for the event.
[1] https://lwn.net/Articles/696240/
Since Peter had suggest LSM hooks in 2016 [1], I am adding his
Suggested-by tag below.
To use this patch, we set the perf_event_paranoid sysctl to -1 and then
apply selinux checking as appropriate (default deny everything, and then
add policy rules to give access to domains that need it). In the future
we can remove the perf_event_paranoid sysctl altogether.

As pointed out in commit
182a85f8a119 ("sched: Disable wakeup balancing")
SD_BALANCE_WAKE is a tad too aggressive, and is usually left unset.
However, it turns out cpuset domain relaxation will unconditionally set it
on domains below the relaxation level. This made sense back when
SD_BALANCE_WAKE was set unconditionally, but it no longer is the case.
We can improve things slightly by noticing that set_domain_attribute() is
always called after sd_init(), so rather than setting flags we can rely on
whatever sd_init() is doing and only clear certain flags when above the
relaxation level.
While at it, slightly clean up the function and flip the relax level
check to be more human readable.

Introduce new helper that reuses existing skb perf_event output
implementation, but can be called from raw_tracepoint programs
that receive 'struct sk_buff *' as tracepoint argument or
can walk other kernel data structures to skb pointer.
In order to do that teach verifier to resolve true C types
of bpf helpers into in-kernel BTF ids.
The type of kernel pointer passed by raw tracepoint into bpf
program will be tracked by the verifier all the way until
it's passed into helper function.
For example:
kfree_skb() kernel function calls trace_kfree_skb(skb, loc);
bpf programs receives that skb pointer and may eventually
pass it into bpf_skb_output() bpf helper which in-kernel is
implemented via bpf_skb_event_output() kernel function.
Its first argument in the kernel is 'struct sk_buff *'.
The verifier makes sure that types match all the way.

Pointer to BTF object is a pointer to kernel object or NULL.
Such pointers can only be used by BPF_LDX instructions.
The verifier changed their opcode from LDX|MEM|size
to LDX|PROBE_MEM|size to make JITing easier.
The number of entries in extable is the number of BPF_LDX insns
that access kernel memory via "pointer to BTF type".
Only these load instructions can fault.
Since x86 extable is relative it has to be allocated in the same
memory region as JITed code.
Allocate it prior to last pass of JITing and let the last pass populate it.
Pointer to extable in bpf_prog_aux is necessary to make page fault
handling fast.
Page fault handling is done in two steps:
1. bpf_prog_kallsyms_find() finds BPF program that page faulted.
It's done by walking rb tree.
2. then extable for given bpf program is binary searched.
This process is similar to how page faulting is done for kernel modules.
The exception handler skips over faulting x86 instruction and
initializes destination register with zero. This mimics exact
behavior of bpf_probe_read (when probe_kernel_read faults dest is zeroed).
JITs for other architectures can add support in similar way.
Until then they will reject unknown opcode and fallback to interpreter.
Since extable should be aligned and placed near JITed code
make bpf_jit_binary_alloc() return 4 byte aligned image offset,
so that extable aligning formula in bpf_int_jit_compile() doesn't need
to rely on internal implementation of bpf_jit_binary_alloc().
On x86 gcc defaults to 16-byte alignment for regular kernel functions
due to better performance. JITed code may be aligned to 16 in the future,
but it will use 4 in the meantime.

libbpf analyzes bpf C program, searches in-kernel BTF for given type name
and stores it into expected_attach_type.
The kernel verifier expects this btf_id to point to something like:
typedef void (*btf_trace_kfree_skb)(void *, struct sk_buff *skb, void *loc);
which represents signature of raw_tracepoint "kfree_skb".
Then btf_ctx_access() matches ctx+0 access in bpf program with 'skb'
and 'ctx+8' access with 'loc' arguments of "kfree_skb" tracepoint.
In first case it passes btf_id of 'struct sk_buff *' back to the verifier core
and 'void *' in second case.
Then the verifier tracks PTR_TO_BTF_ID as any other pointer type.
Like PTR_TO_SOCKET points to 'struct bpf_sock',
PTR_TO_TCP_SOCK points to 'struct bpf_tcp_sock', and so on.
PTR_TO_BTF_ID points to in-kernel structs.
If 1234 is btf_id of 'struct sk_buff' in vmlinux's BTF
then PTR_TO_BTF_ID#1234 points to one of in kernel skbs.
When PTR_TO_BTF_ID#1234 is dereferenced (like r2 = *(u64 *)r1 + 32)
the btf_struct_access() checks which field of 'struct sk_buff' is
at offset 32. Checks that size of access matches type definition
of the field and continues to track the dereferenced type.
If that field was a pointer to 'struct net_device' the r2's type
will be PTR_TO_BTF_ID#456. Where 456 is btf_id of 'struct net_device'
in vmlinux's BTF.
Such verifier analysis prevents "cheating" in BPF C program.
The program cannot cast arbitrary pointer to 'struct sk_buff *'
and access it. C compiler would allow type cast, of course,
but the verifier will notice type mismatch based on BPF assembly
and in-kernel BTF.

Add attach_btf_id attribute to prog_load command.
It's similar to existing expected_attach_type attribute which is
used in several cgroup based program types.
Unfortunately expected_attach_type is ignored for
tracing programs and cannot be reused for new purpose.
Hence introduce attach_btf_id to verify bpf programs against
given in-kernel BTF type id at load time.
It is strictly checked to be valid for raw_tp programs only.
In a later patches it will become:
btf_id == 0 semantics of existing raw_tp progs.
btd_id > 0 raw_tp with BTF and additional type safety.

If in-kernel BTF exists parse it and prepare 'struct btf *btf_vmlinux'
for further use by the verifier.
In-kernel BTF is trusted just like kallsyms and other build artifacts
embedded into vmlinux.
Yet run this BTF image through BTF verifier to make sure
that it is valid and it wasn't mangled during the build.
If in-kernel BTF is incorrect it means either gcc or pahole or kernel
are buggy. In such case disallow loading BPF programs.

Currently, when a task is dead we still print the pid it used to use in
the fdinfo files of its pidfds. This doesn't make much sense since the
pid may have already been reused. So verify that the task is still alive
by introducing the pid_has_task() helper which will be used by other
callers in follow-up patches.
If the task is not alive anymore, we will print -1. This allows us to
differentiate between a task not being present in a given pid namespace
- in which case we already print 0 - and a task having been reaped.
Note that this uses PIDTYPE_PID for the check. Technically, we could've
checked PIDTYPE_TGID since pidfds currently only refer to thread-group
leaders but if they won't anymore in the future then this check becomes
problematic without it being immediately obvious to non-experts imho. If
a thread is created via clone(CLONE_THREAD) than struct pid has a single
non-empty list pid->tasks[PIDTYPE_PID] and this pid can't be used as a
PIDTYPE_TGID meaning pid->tasks[PIDTYPE_TGID] will return NULL even
though the thread-group leader might still be very much alive. So
checking PIDTYPE_PID is fine and is easier to maintain should we ever
allow pidfds to refer to threads.

Both multi_cpu_stop() and set_state() access multi_stop_data::state
racily using plain accesses. These are subject to compiler
transformations which could break the intended behaviour of the code,
and this situation is detected by KCSAN on both arm64 and x86 (splats
below).
Improve matters by using READ_ONCE() and WRITE_ONCE() to ensure that the
compiler cannot elide, replay, or tear loads and stores.
In multi_cpu_stop() the two loads of multi_stop_data::state are expected to
be a consistent value, so snapshot the value into a temporary variable to
ensure this.
The state transitions are serialized by atomic manipulation of
multi_stop_data::num_threads, and other fields in multi_stop_data are not
modified while subject to concurrent reads.

The option --sort=ORDER was only introduced in tar 1.28 (2014), which
is rather new and might not be available in some setups.
This patch tries to replicate the previous behaviour as closely as
possible to fix the kheaders build for older environments. It does
not produce identical archives compared to the previous version due
to minor sorting differences but produces reproducible results itself
in my tests.

This can be reproduced by:
1. Start a multi-thread program that does parallel mmap() and malloc();
2. taskset the program to 2 CPUs;
3. Attach bpf program to trace_sched_switch and gather stackmap with
build-id, e.g. with trace.py from bcc tools:
trace.py -U -p <pid> -s <some-bin,some-lib> t:sched:sched_switch
A sample reproducer is attached at the end.
This could also trigger deadlock with other locks that are nested with
rq_lock.
Fix this by checking whether irqs are disabled. Since rq_lock and all
other nested locks are irq safe, it is safe to do up_read() when irqs are
not disable. If the irqs are disabled, postpone up_read() in irq_work.

Currently, the fdinfo file contains the Pid field which shows the
pid a given pidfd refers to in the pid namespace of the procfs
instance. If pid namespaces are configured, also show an NSpid field
for easy retrieval of the pid in all descendant pid namespaces. If
the pid namespace of the process is not a descendant of the pid
namespace of the procfs instance 0 will be shown as its first NSpid
entry and no other entries will be shown. Add a block comment to
pidfd_show_fdinfo with a detailed explanation of Pid and NSpid fields.

Followup to commit dd2261ed45aa ("hrtimer: Protect lockless access
to timer->base")
lock_hrtimer_base() fetches timer->base without lock exclusion.
Compiler is allowed to read timer->base twice (even if considered dumb)
which could end up trying to lock migration_base and return
&migration_base.
base = timer->base;
if (likely(base != &migration_base)) {
/* compiler reads timer->base again, and now (base == &migration_base)
raw_spin_lock_irqsave(&base->cpu_base->lock, *flags);
if (likely(base == timer->base))
return base; /* == &migration_base ! */
Similarly the write sides must use WRITE_ONCE() to avoid store tearing.

It caught the process in the middle of trace_access_unlock(). There is
no loop. So, it must be looping in the caller tracing_read_pipe()
via the "waitagain" label.
Crashdump analyze uncovered that iter->seq was completely zeroed
at this point, including iter->seq.seq.size. It means that
print_trace_line() was never able to print anything and
there was no forward progress.
The culprit seems to be in the code:
/* reset all but tr, trace, and overruns */
memset(&iter->seq, 0,
sizeof(struct trace_iterator) -
offsetof(struct trace_iterator, seq));
It was added by the commit 53d0aa773053ab182877 ("ftrace:
add logic to record overruns"). It was v2.6.27-rc1.
It was the time when iter->seq looked like:
struct trace_seq {
unsigned char buffer[PAGE_SIZE];
unsigned int len;
};
There was no "size" variable and zeroing was perfectly fine.
The solution is to reinitialize the structure after or without
zeroing.

nmi_total_ts is supposed to record the total time spent in *all* NMIs
that occur on the given CPU during the (active portion of the)

most recent NMI. Fix it by accumulating the duration instead.

Added various checks on open tracefs calls to see if tracefs is in lockdown
mode, and if so, to return -EPERM.
Note, the event format files (which are basically standard on all machines)
as well as the enabled_functions file (which shows what is currently being
traced) are not lockde down. Perhaps they should be, but it seems counter
intuitive to lockdown information to help you know if the system has been
modified.

buffer was found to be corrupted, and we wanted to prevent reading it from
crashing the kernel. But it's also called if a tracing selftest fails on
boot. It's a one way switch. That is, once it is triggered, tracing is
disabled until reboot.
As most tracefs files can also be used by instances in the tracefs
directory, they need to be carefully done. Each instance has a trace_array
associated to it, and when the instance is removed, the trace_array is
freed. But if an instance is opened with a reference to the trace_array,
then it requires looking up the trace_array to get its ref counter (as there
could be a race with it being deleted and the open itself). Once it is
found, a reference is added to prevent the instance from being removed (and
the trace_array associated with it freed).
Combine the two checks (tracing_disabled and trace_array_get()) into a
single helper function. This will also make it easier to add lockdown to
tracefs later.

Instead of having the trace events system open call open code the taking of
the trace_array descriptor (with trace_array_get()) and then calling
trace_open_generic(), have it use the tracing_open_generic_tr() that does
the combination of the two. This requires making tracing_open_generic_tr()
global.

As instances may have different tracers available, we need to look at the
trace_array descriptor that shows the list of the available tracers for the
instance. But there's a race between opening the file and an admin
deleting the instance. The trace_array_get() needs to be called before
accessing the trace_array.
