2024-09-03sched: Add put_prev_task(.next)Peter Zijlstra
In order to tell the previous sched_class what the next task is, add put_prev_task(.next). Notable SCX will use this to: 1) determine the next task will leave the SCX sched class and push the current task to another CPU if possible. 2) statistics on how often and which other classes preempt it Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240813224016.367421076@infradead.org
2024-09-03sched: Rework dl_serverPeter Zijlstra
When a task is selected through a dl_server, it will have p->dl_server set, such that it can account runtime to the dl_server, see update_curr_task(). Currently p->dl_server is set in pick*task() whenever it goes through the dl_server, clearing it is a bit of a mess though. The trivial solution is clearing it on the final put (now that we have this location). However, this gives a problem when: p = pick_task(rq); if (p) put_prev_set_next_task(rq, prev, next); picks the same task but through a different path, notably when it goes from picking through the dl_server to a direct pick or vice-versa. In that case we cannot readily determine wether we should clear or preserve p->dl_server. An additional complication is pick_*task() setting p->dl_server for a remote pick, it might still need to update runtime before it schedules the core_pick. Close all these holes and remove all the random clearing of p->dl_server by: - having pick_*task() manage rq->dl_server - having the final put_prev_task() clear p->dl_server - having the first set_next_task() set p->dl_server = rq->dl_server - complicate the core_sched code to save/restore rq->dl_server where appropriate.

2024-09-03sched: Rework pick_next_task()Peter Zijlstra
The current rule is that: pick_next_task() := pick_task() + set_next_task(.first = true) And many classes implement it directly as such. Change things around to make pick_next_task() optional while also changing the definition to: pick_next_task(prev) := pick_task() + put_prev_task() + set_next_task(.first = true) The reason is that sched_ext would like to have a 'final' call that knows the next task. By placing put_prev_task() right next to set_next_task() (as it already is for sched_core) this becomes trivial. As a bonus, this is a nice cleanup on its own.

2024-09-03sched/fair: Properly deactivate sched_delayed task upon class changeValentin Schneider
__sched_setscheduler() goes through an enqueue/dequeue cycle like so: flags := DEQUEUE_SAVE | DEQUEUE_MOVE | DEQUEUE_NOCLOCK; prev_class->dequeue_task(rq, p, flags); new_class->enqueue_task(rq, p, flags); when prev_class := fair_sched_class, this is followed by: dequeue_task(rq, p, DEQUEUE_NOCLOCK | DEQUEUE_SLEEP); the idea being that since the task has switched classes, we need to drop the sched_delayed logic and have that task be deactivated per its previous dequeue_task(..., DEQUEUE_SLEEP). Unfortunately, this leaves the task on_rq. This is missing the tail end of dequeue_entities() that issues __block_task(), which __sched_setscheduler() won't have done due to not using DEQUEUE_DELAYED - not that it should, as it is pretty much a fair_sched_class specific thing. Make switched_from_fair() properly deactivate sched_delayed tasks upon class changes via __block_task(), as if a dequeue_task(..., DEQUEUE_DELAYED) had been issued.

When analyzing a kernel waring message, Peter pointed out that there is a race condition when the kworker is being frozen and falls into try_to_freeze() with TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE, which could trigger a might_sleep() warning in try_to_freeze(). Although the root cause is not related to freeze()[1], it is still worthy to fix this issue ahead.

2024-09-01watchdog: handle the ENODEV failure case of lockup_detector_delay_init() ↵Waiman Long
separately When watchdog_hardlockup_probe() is being called by lockup_detector_delay_init(), an error return of -ENODEV will happen for the arm64 arch when arch_perf_nmi_is_available() returns false. This means that NMI is not usable by the hard lockup detector and so has to be disabled. This can be considered a deficiency in that particular arm64 chip, but there is nothing we can do about it. That also means the following error will always be reported when the kernel boot up. watchdog: Delayed init of the lockup detector failed: -19 The word "failed" itself has a connotation that there is something wrong with the kernel which is not really the case here. Handle this special ENODEV case separately and explain the reason behind disabling hard lockup detector without causing anxiety for those users who read the above message and wonder about it.

2024-09-01crash: fix crash memory reserve exceed system memory bugJinjie Ruan
On x86_32 Qemu machine with 1GB memory, the cmdline "crashkernel=4G" is ok as below: crashkernel reserved: 0x0000000020000000 - 0x0000000120000000 (4096 MB) It's similar on other architectures, such as ARM32 and RISCV32. The cause is that the crash_size is parsed and printed with "unsigned long long" data type which is 8 bytes but allocated used with "phys_addr_t" which is 4 bytes in memblock_phys_alloc_range(). Fix it by checking if crash_size is greater than system RAM size and return error if so. After this patch, there is no above confusing reserve success info.

2024-09-01mm, memcg: cg2 memory{.swap,}.peak write handlersDavid Finkel
Patch series "mm, memcg: cg2 memory{.swap,}.peak write handlers", v7. This patch (of 2): Other mechanisms for querying the peak memory usage of either a process or v1 memory cgroup allow for resetting the high watermark. Restore parity with those mechanisms, but with a less racy API. For example: - Any write to memory.max_usage_in_bytes in a cgroup v1 mount resets the high watermark. - writing "5" to the clear_refs pseudo-file in a processes's proc directory resets the peak RSS. This change is an evolution of a previous patch, which mostly copied the cgroup v1 behavior, however, there were concerns about races/ownership issues with a global reset, so instead this change makes the reset filedescriptor-local. Writing any non-empty string to the memory.peak and memory.swap.peak pseudo-files reset the high watermark to the current usage for subsequent reads through that same FD. Notably, following Johannes's suggestion, this implementation moves the O(FDs that have written) behavior onto the FD write(2) path. Instead, on the page-allocation path, we simply add one additional watermark to conditionally bump per-hierarchy level in the page-counter. Additionally, this takes Longman's suggestion of nesting the page-charging-path checks for the two watermarks to reduce the number of common-case comparisons. This behavior is particularly useful for work scheduling systems that need to track memory usage of worker processes/cgroups per-work-item. Since memory can't be squeezed like CPU can (the OOM-killer has opinions), these systems need to track the peak memory usage to compute system/container fullness when binpacking workitems. Most notably, Vimeo's use-case involves a system that's doing global binpacking across many Kubernetes pods/containers, and while we can use PSI for some local decisions about overload, we strive to avoid packing workloads too tightly in the first place. To facilitate this, we track the peak memory usage. However, since we run with long-lived workers (to amortize startup costs) we need a way to track the high watermark while a work-item is executing. Polling runs the risk of missing short spikes that last for timescales below the polling interval, and peak memory tracking at the cgroup level is otherwise perfect for this use-case. As this data is used to ensure that binpacked work ends up with sufficient headroom, this use-case mostly avoids the inaccuracies surrounding reclaimable memory.

2024-09-01mm: turn USE_SPLIT_PTE_PTLOCKS / USE_SPLIT_PTE_PTLOCKS into Kconfig optionsDavid Hildenbrand
Patch series "mm: split PTE/PMD PT table Kconfig cleanups+clarifications". This series is a follow up to the fixes: "[PATCH v1 0/2] mm/hugetlb: fix hugetlb vs. core-mm PT locking" When working on the fixes, I wondered why 8xx is fine (-> never uses split PT locks) and how PT locking even works properly with PMD page table sharing (-> always requires split PMD PT locks). Let's improve the split PT lock detection, make hugetlb properly depend on it and make 8xx bail out if it would ever get enabled by accident. As an alternative to patch #3 we could extend the Kconfig SPLIT_PTE_PTLOCKS option from patch #2 -- but enforcing it closer to the code that actually implements it feels a bit nicer for documentation purposes, and there is no need to actually disable it because it should always be disabled (!SMP). Did a bunch of cross-compilations to make sure that split PTE/PMD PT locks are still getting used where we would expect them.

2024-09-01vmstat: kernel stack usage histogramPasha Tatashin
As part of the dynamic kernel stack project, we need to know the amount of data that can be saved by reducing the default kernel stack size [1]. Provide a kernel stack usage histogram to aid in optimizing kernel stack sizes and minimizing memory waste in large-scale environments. The histogram divides stack usage into power-of-two buckets and reports the results in /proc/vmstat. This information is especially valuable in environments with millions of machines, where even small optimizations can have a significant impact. The histogram data is presented in /proc/vmstat with entries like "kstack_1k", "kstack_2k", and so on, indicating the number of threads that exited with stack usage falling within each respective bucket.

2024-09-01mm: kvmalloc: align kvrealloc() with krealloc()Danilo Krummrich
Besides the obvious (and desired) difference between krealloc() and kvrealloc(), there is some inconsistency in their function signatures and behavior: - krealloc() frees the memory when the requested size is zero, whereas kvrealloc() simply returns a pointer to the existing allocation. - krealloc() behaves like kmalloc() if a NULL pointer is passed, whereas kvrealloc() does not accept a NULL pointer at all and, if passed, would fault instead. - krealloc() is self-contained, whereas kvrealloc() relies on the caller to provide the size of the previous allocation. Inconsistent behavior throughout allocation APIs is error prone, hence make kvrealloc() behave like krealloc(), which seems superior in all mentioned aspects. Besides that, implementing kvrealloc() by making use of krealloc() and vrealloc() provides oppertunities to grow (and shrink) allocations more efficiently. For instance, vrealloc() can be optimized to allocate and map additional pages to grow the allocation or unmap and free unused pages to shrink the allocation.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull x86 fixes from Thomas Gleixner: - x2apic_disable() clears x2apic_state and x2apic_mode unconditionally, even when the state is X2APIC_ON_LOCKED, which prevents the kernel to disable it thereby creating inconsistent state. Reorder the logic so it actually works correctly - The XSTATE logic for handling LBR is incorrect as it assumes that XSAVES supports LBR when the CPU supports LBR. In fact both conditions need to be true. Otherwise the enablement of LBR in the IA32_XSS MSR fails and subsequently the machine crashes on the next XRSTORS operation because IA32_XSS is not initialized. Cache the XSTATE support bit during init and make the related functions use this cached information and the LBR CPU feature bit to cure this. - Cure a long standing bug in KASLR KASLR uses the full address space between PAGE_OFFSET and vaddr_end to randomize the starting points of the direct map, vmalloc and vmemmap regions. It thereby limits the size of the direct map by using the installed memory size plus an extra configurable margin for hot-plug memory. This limitation is done to gain more randomization space because otherwise only the holes between the direct map, vmalloc, vmemmap and vaddr_end would be usable for randomizing. The limited direct map size is not exposed to the rest of the kernel, so the memory hot-plug and resource management related code paths still operate under the assumption that the available address space can be determined with MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS. request_free_mem_region() allocates from (1 << MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS) - 1 downwards. That means the first allocation happens past the end of the direct map and if unlucky this address is in the vmalloc space, which causes high_memory to become greater than VMALLOC_START and consequently causes iounmap() to fail for valid ioremap addresses. Cure this by exposing the end of the direct map via PHYSMEM_END and use that for the memory hot-plug and resource management related places instead of relying on MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS. In the KASLR case PHYSMEM_END maps to a variable which is initialized by the KASLR initialization and otherwise it is based on MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS as before. - Prevent a data leak in mmio_read(). The TDVMCALL exposes the value of an initialized variabled on the stack to the VMM. The variable is only required as output value, so it does not have to exposed to the VMM in the first place. - Prevent an array overrun in the resource control code on systems with Sub-NUMA Clustering enabled because the code failed to adjust the index by the number of SNC nodes per L3 cache. * tag 'x86-urgent-2024-09-01' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: x86/resctrl: Fix arch_mbm_* array overrun on SNC x86/tdx: Fix data leak in mmio_read() x86/kaslr: Expose and use the end of the physical memory address space x86/fpu: Avoid writing LBR bit to IA32_XSS unless supported x86/apic: Make x2apic_disable() work correctly

touch_core_sched() Since 3cf78c5d01d6 ("sched_ext: Unpin and repin rq lock from balance_scx()"), sched_ext's balance path terminates rq_pin in the outermost function. This is simpler and in line with what other balance functions are doing but it loses control over rq->clock_update_flags which makes assert_clock_udpated() trigger if other CPUs pins the rq lock. The only place this matters is touch_core_sched() which uses the timestamp to order tasks from sibling rq's. Switch to sched_clock_cpu(). Later, it may be better to use per-core dispatch sequence number. v2: Use sched_clock_cpu() instead of ktime_get_ns() per David.

2024-08-30sched_ext: Use task_can_run_on_remote_rq() test in dispatch_to_local_dsq()Tejun Heo
When deciding whether a task can be migrated to a CPU, dispatch_to_local_dsq() was open-coding p->cpus_allowed and scx_rq_online() tests instead of using task_can_run_on_remote_rq(). This had two problems. - It was missing is_migration_disabled() check and thus could try to migrate a task which shouldn't leading to assertion and scheduling failures. - It was testing p->cpus_ptr directly instead of using task_allowed_on_cpu() and thus failed to consider ISA compatibility. Update dispatch_to_local_dsq() to use task_can_run_on_remote_rq(): - Move scx_ops_error() triggering into task_can_run_on_remote_rq(). - When migration isn't allowed, fall back to the global DSQ instead of the source DSQ by returning DTL_INVALID.

With the "isolcpus" boot command line parameter, we are able to create isolated CPUs at boot time. These isolated CPUs aren't fully accounted for in the cpuset code. For instance, the root cgroup's "cpuset.cpus.isolated" control file does not include the boot time isolated CPUs. Fix that by looking for pre-isolated CPUs at init time. The prstate_housekeeping_conflict() function does check the HK_TYPE_DOMAIN housekeeping cpumask to make sure that CPUs outside of it can only be used in isolated partition. Given the fact that we are going to make housekeeping cpumasks dynamic, the current check may not be right anymore. Save the boot time HK_TYPE_DOMAIN cpumask and check against it instead of the upcoming dynamic HK_TYPE_DOMAIN housekeeping cpumask.

2024-08-29bpf: Make the pointer returned by iter next method validJuntong Deng
Currently we cannot pass the pointer returned by iter next method as argument to KF_TRUSTED_ARGS or KF_RCU kfuncs, because the pointer returned by iter next method is not "valid". This patch sets the pointer returned by iter next method to be valid. This is based on the fact that if the iterator is implemented correctly, then the pointer returned from the iter next method should be valid. This does not make NULL pointer valid. If the iter next method has KF_RET_NULL flag, then the verifier will ask the ebpf program to check NULL pointer. KF_RCU_PROTECTED iterator is a special case, the pointer returned by iter next method should only be valid within RCU critical section, so it should be with MEM_RCU, not PTR_TRUSTED. Another special case is bpf_iter_num_next, which returns a pointer with base type PTR_TO_MEM. PTR_TO_MEM should not be combined with type flag PTR_TRUSTED (PTR_TO_MEM already means the pointer is valid). The pointer returned by iter next method of other types of iterators is with PTR_TRUSTED. In addition, this patch adds get_iter_from_state to help us get the current iterator from the current state.
