Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
- Improve uclamp performance by using a static key for the fast path
- Add the "sched_util_clamp_min_rt_default" sysctl, to optimize for
better power efficiency of RT tasks on battery powered devices.
(The default is to maximize performance & reduce RT latencies.)
- Improve utime and stime tracking accuracy, which had a fixed boundary
of error, which created larger and larger relative errors as the
values become larger. This is now replaced with more precise
arithmetics, using the new mul_u64_u64_div_u64() helper in math64.h.
- Improve the deadline scheduler, such as making it capacity aware
- Improve frequency-invariant scheduling
- Misc cleanups in energy/power aware scheduling
- Add sched_update_nr_running tracepoint to track changes to nr_running
- Documentation additions and updates
- Misc cleanups and smaller fixes

Conflicts:
arch/arm/include/asm/percpu.h
As Stephen Rothwell noted, there's a conflict between this commit
in locking/core:
a21ee6055c30 ("lockdep: Change hardirq{s_enabled,_context} to per-cpu variables")
and this fresh upstream commit:
aa54ea903abb ("ARM: percpu.h: fix build error")
a21ee6055c30 is a simpler solution to the dependency problem and doesn't
further increase header hell - so this conflict resolution effectively
reverts aa54ea903abb and uses the a21ee6055c30 solution.

It turns out that the plugin right now ends up being really unhappy
about the change from 'static' to 'extern' storage that happened in
commit f227e3ec3b5c ("random32: update the net random state on interrupt
and activity").
This is probably a trivial fix for the latent_entropy plugin, but for
now, just remove net_rand_state from the list of things the plugin
worries about.

This modifies the first 32 bits out of the 128 bits of a random CPU's
net_rand_state on interrupt or CPU activity to complicate remote
observations that could lead to guessing the network RNG's internal
state.
Note that depending on some network devices' interrupt rate moderation
or binding, this re-seeding might happen on every packet or even almost
never.
In addition, with NOHZ some CPUs might not even get timer interrupts,
leaving their local state rarely updated, while they are running
networked processes making use of the random state. For this reason, we
also perform this update in update_process_times() in order to at least
update the state when there is user or system activity, since it's the
only case we care about.

Asserting that preemption is enabled or disabled is a critical sanity
check. Developers are usually reluctant to add such a check in a
fastpath as reading the preemption count can be costly.
Extend the lockdep API with macros asserting that preemption is disabled
or enabled. If lockdep is disabled, or if the underlying architecture
does not support kernel preemption, this assert has no runtime overhead.

Prior to commit:
859d069ee1dd ("lockdep: Prepare for NMI IRQ state tracking")
IRQ state tracking was disabled in NMIs due to nmi_enter()
doing lockdep_off() -- with the obvious requirement that NMI entry
call nmi_enter() before trace_hardirqs_off().
[ AFAICT, PowerPC and SH violate this order on their NMI entry ]
However, that commit explicitly changed lockdep_hardirqs_*() to ignore
lockdep_off() and breaks every architecture that has irq-tracing in
it's NMI entry that hasn't been fixed up (x86 being the only fixed one
at this point).
The reason for this change is that by ignoring lockdep_off() we can:
- get rid of 'current->lockdep_recursion' in lockdep_assert_irqs*()
which was going to to give header-recursion issues with the
seqlock rework.
- allow these lockdep_assert_*() macros to function in NMI context.
Restore the previous state of things and allow an architecture to
opt-in to the NMI IRQ tracking support, however instead of relying on
lockdep_off(), rely on in_nmi(), both are part of nmi_enter() and so
over-all entry ordering doesn't need to change.

The XML packet could be supported by required architecture if the
architecture defines CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_KGDB_QXFER_PKT and implement its own
kgdb_arch_handle_qxfer_pkt(). Except for the kgdb_arch_handle_qxfer_pkt(),
the architecture also needs to record the feature supported by gdb stub
into the kgdb_arch_gdb_stub_feature, and these features will be reported
to host gdb when gdb stub receives the qSupported packet.

The current implementation of cpumask_local_spread() does not respect the
isolated CPUs, i.e., even if a CPU has been isolated for Real-Time task,
it will return it to the caller for pinning of its IRQ threads. Having
these unwanted IRQ threads on an isolated CPU adds up to a latency
overhead.
Restrict the CPUs that are returned for spreading IRQs only to the
available housekeeping CPUs.

sbitmap works by maintaining separate bitmaps of set and cleared bits.
The set bits are cleared in a batch, to save the burden of continuously
locking the "word" map to unset.
sbitmap_bitmap_show() only shows the set bits (in "word"), which is not
too much use, so mask out the cleared bits.

Part of making this all work is bumping the minimum GCC version for
KASAN builds to gcc-8.3, the reason for this is that the
__no_sanitize_address function attribute is broken in GCC releases
before that.
No known GCC version has a working __no_sanitize_undefined, however
because the only noinstr violation that results from this happens
when an UB is found, we treat it like WARN. That is, we allow it to

"A feature (papr_scm health retrieval) and a fix (sysfs attribute
visibility) for v5.8.
Vaibhav explains in the merge commit below why missing v5.8 would be
painful and I agreed to try a -rc2 pull because only cosmetics kept
this out of -rc1 and his initial versions were posted in more than
enough time for v5.8 consideration:
'These patches are tied to specific features that were committed to
customers in upcoming distros releases (RHEL and SLES) whose

Being able to track the health of an nvdimm is critical for our
customers that are running workloads leveraging papr-scm nvdimms.
Missing the 5.8 kernel would mean missing the distro timelines and
shifting forward the availability of this feature in distro kernels
by at least 6 months'
Summary:
- Fix the visibility of the region 'align' attribute.
The new unit tests for region alignment handling caught a corner
case where the alignment cannot be specified if the region is
converted from static to dynamic provisioning at runtime.
- Add support for device health retrieval for the persistent memory

- Correctly compare the algorithm name in crc_t10dif_notify().
- Use proper NOTIFY_* status codes instead of 0.
- Consistently use CRC_T10DIF_STRING instead of "crct10dif" directly.
- Use a proper type for the shash_desc context.
- Use crypto_shash_driver_name() instead of open-coding it.
- Make crc_t10dif_transform_show() use snprintf() rather than sprintf().
This isn't actually necessary since the buffer has size PAGE_SIZE
and CRYPTO_MAX_ALG_NAME < PAGE_SIZE, but it's good practice.
- Give the "transform" sysfs file mode 0444 rather than 0644,
since it doesn't implement a setter method.

Currently the crc-t10dif module starts out with the fallback disabled
and crct10dif_tfm == NULL. crc_t10dif_mod_init() tries to allocate
crct10dif_tfm, and if it fails it enables the fallback.
This is backwards because it means that any call to crc_t10dif() prior
to module_init (which could theoretically happen from built-in code)
will crash rather than use the fallback as expected. Also, it means
that if the initial tfm allocation fails, then the fallback stays
permanently enabled even if a crct10dif implementation is loaded later.
Change it to use the more logical solution of starting with the fallback
enabled, and disabling the fallback when a tfm gets allocated for the
first time. This change also ends up simplifying the code.
Also take the opportunity to convert the code to use the new static_key
API, which is much less confusing than the old and deprecated one.

The crypto notify call occurs with a read mutex held so you must
not do any substantial work directly. In particular, you cannot
call crypto_alloc_* as they may trigger further notifications
which may dead-lock in the presence of another writer.
This patch fixes this by postponing the work into a work queue and
taking the same lock in the module init function.
While we're at it this patch also ensures that all RCU accesses are
marked appropriately (tested with sparse).
Finally this also reveals a race condition in module param show
function as it may be called prior to the module init function.
It's fixed by testing whether crct10dif_tfm is NULL (this is true
iff the init function has not completed assuming fallback is false).

cc-option and as-option are almost the same; both pass the flag to
$(CC). The main difference is the cc-option stops before the assemble
stage (-S option) whereas as-option stops after (-c option).
I chose -S because it is slightly faster, but $(cc-option,-gz=zlib)
returns a wrong result (https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/6/9/1529).
It has been fixed by commit 7b16994437c7 ("Makefile: Improve compressed
debug info support detection"), but the assembler should always be
invoked for more reliable compiler option tests.
However, you cannot simply replace -S with -c because the following
code in lib/Kconfig.debug would break:
depends on $(cc-option,-gsplit-dwarf)
The combination of -c and -gsplit-dwarf does not accept /dev/null as
output.
$ cat /dev/null | gcc -gsplit-dwarf -S -x c - -o /dev/null
$ echo $?
0
$ cat /dev/null | gcc -gsplit-dwarf -c -x c - -o /dev/null
objcopy: Warning: '/dev/null' is not an ordinary file
$ echo $?
1
$ cat /dev/null | gcc -gsplit-dwarf -c -x c - -o tmp.o
$ echo $?
0
There is another flag that creates an separate file based on the
object file path:
$ cat /dev/null | gcc -ftest-coverage -c -x c - -o /dev/null
<stdin>:1: error: cannot open /dev/null.gcno
So, we cannot use /dev/null to sink the output.
Align the cc-option implementation with scripts/Kbuild.include.
With -c option used in cc-option, as-option is unneeded.

'seq_buf' provides a very useful abstraction for writing to a string
buffer without needing to worry about it over-flowing. However even
though the API has been stable for couple of years now its still not
exported to kernel loadable modules limiting its usage.
Hence this patch proposes update to 'seq_buf.c' to mark
seq_buf_printf() which is part of the seq_buf API to be exported to
kernel loadable GPL modules. This symbol will be used in later parts
of this patch-set to simplify content creation for a sysfs attribute.

Adds config variable CC_HAS_WORKING_NOSANITIZE_ADDRESS, which will be
true if we have a compiler that does not fail builds due to
no_sanitize_address functions. This does not yet mean they work as
intended, but for automated build-tests, this is the minimum
requirement.
For example, we require that __always_inline functions used from
no_sanitize_address functions do not generate instrumentation. On GCC <=
7 this fails to build entirely, therefore we make the minimum version
GCC 8.

People report that utime and stime from /proc/<pid>/stat become very
wrong when the numbers are big enough, especially if you watch these
counters incrementally.
Specifically, the current implementation of: stime*rtime/total,
results in a saw-tooth function on top of the desired line, where the
teeth grow in size the larger the values become. IOW, it has a
relative error.
The result is that, when watching incrementally as time progresses
(for large values), we'll see periods of pure stime or utime increase,
irrespective of the actual ratio we're striving for.
Replace scale_stime() with a math64.h helper: mul_u64_u64_div_u64()
that is far more accurate. This also allows architectures to override
the implementation -- for instance they can opt for the old algorithm
if this new one turns out to be too expensive for them.

Commit
10e68b02c861 ("Makefile: support compressed debug info")
added support for compressed debug sections.
Support is detected by checking
- does the compiler support -gz=zlib
- does the assembler support --compressed-debug-sections=zlib
- does the linker support --compressed-debug-sections=zlib
However, the gcc driver's support for this option is somewhat
convoluted. The driver's builtin specs are set based on the version of
binutils that it was configured with. It reports an error if the
configure-time linker/assembler (i.e., not necessarily the actual
assembler that will be run) do not support the option, but only if the
assembler (or linker) is actually invoked when -gz=zlib is passed.
The cc-option check in scripts/Kconfig.include does not invoke the
assembler, so the gcc driver reports success even if it does not support
the option being passed to the assembler.
Because the as-option check passes the option directly to the assembler
via -Wa,--compressed-debug-sections=zlib, the gcc driver does not see
this option and will never report an error.
Combined with an installed version of binutils that is more recent than
the one the compiler was built with, it is possible for all three tests
to succeed, yet an actual compilation with -gz=zlib to fail.
Moreover, it is unnecessary to explicitly pass
--compressed-debug-sections=zlib to the assembler via -Wa, since the
driver will do that automatically when it supports -gz=zlib.
Convert the as-option to just -gz=zlib, simplifying it as well as
performing a better test of the gcc driver's capabilities.

Pull x86 entry updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"The x86 entry, exception and interrupt code rework
This all started about 6 month ago with the attempt to move the Posix
CPU timer heavy lifting out of the timer interrupt code and just have
lockless quick checks in that code path. Trivial 5 patches.
This unearthed an inconsistency in the KVM handling of task work and
the review requested to move all of this into generic code so other
architectures can share.
Valid request and solved with another 25 patches but those unearthed
inconsistencies vs. RCU and instrumentation.
Digging into this made it obvious that there are quite some
inconsistencies vs. instrumentation in general. The int3 text poke
handling in particular was completely unprotected and with the batched
update of trace events even more likely to expose to endless int3
recursion.
In parallel the RCU implications of instrumenting fragile entry code
came up in several discussions.
The conclusion of the x86 maintainer team was to go all the way and
make the protection against any form of instrumentation of fragile and
dangerous code pathes enforcable and verifiable by tooling.
A first batch of preparatory work hit mainline with commit
d5f744f9a2ac ("Pull x86 entry code updates from Thomas Gleixner")
That (almost) full solution introduced a new code section
'.noinstr.text' into which all code which needs to be protected from
instrumentation of all sorts goes into. Any call into instrumentable
code out of this section has to be annotated. objtool has support to
validate this.
Kprobes now excludes this section fully which also prevents BPF from
fiddling with it and all 'noinstr' annotated functions also keep
ftrace off. The section, kprobes and objtool changes are already
merged.
The major changes coming with this are:
- Preparatory cleanups
- Annotating of relevant functions to move them into the
noinstr.text section or enforcing inlining by marking them
__always_inline so the compiler cannot misplace or instrument
them.
- Splitting and simplifying the idtentry macro maze so that it is
now clearly separated into simple exception entries and the more
interesting ones which use interrupt stacks and have the paranoid
handling vs. CR3 and GS.
- Move quite some of the low level ASM functionality into C code:
- enter_from and exit to user space handling. The ASM code now
calls into C after doing the really necessary ASM handling and
the return path goes back out without bells and whistels in
ASM.
- exception entry/exit got the equivivalent treatment
- move all IRQ tracepoints from ASM to C so they can be placed as
appropriate which is especially important for the int3
recursion issue.
- Consolidate the declaration and definition of entry points between
32 and 64 bit. They share a common header and macros now.
- Remove the extra device interrupt entry maze and just use the
regular exception entry code.
- All ASM entry points except NMI are now generated from the shared
header file and the corresponding macros in the 32 and 64 bit
entry ASM.
- The C code entry points are consolidated as well with the help of
DEFINE_IDTENTRY*() macros. This allows to ensure at one central
point that all corresponding entry points share the same
semantics. The actual function body for most entry points is in an
instrumentable and sane state.
There are special macros for the more sensitive entry points, e.g.
INT3 and of course the nasty paranoid #NMI, #MCE, #DB and #DF.
They allow to put the whole entry instrumentation and RCU handling
into safe places instead of the previous pray that it is correct
approach.
- The INT3 text poke handling is now completely isolated and the
recursion issue banned. Aside of the entry rework this required
other isolation work, e.g. the ability to force inline bsearch.
- Prevent #DB on fragile entry code, entry relevant memory and
disable it on NMI, #MC entry, which allowed to get rid of the
nested #DB IST stack shifting hackery.
- A few other cleanups and enhancements which have been made
possible through this and already merged changes, e.g.
consolidating and further restricting the IDT code so the IDT
table becomes RO after init which removes yet another popular
attack vector
- About 680 lines of ASM maze are gone.
There are a few open issues:
- An escape out of the noinstr section in the MCE handler which needs
some more thought but under the aspect that MCE is a complete
trainwreck by design and the propability to survive it is low, this
was not high on the priority list.
- Paravirtualization
When PV is enabled then objtool complains about a bunch of indirect
calls out of the noinstr section. There are a few straight forward
ways to fix this, but the other issues vs. general correctness were
more pressing than parawitz.
- KVM
KVM is inconsistent as well. Patches have been posted, but they
have not yet been commented on or picked up by the KVM folks.
- IDLE
Pretty much the same problems can be found in the low level idle
code especially the parts where RCU stopped watching. This was
beyond the scope of the more obvious and exposable problems and is
on the todo list.
The lesson learned from this brain melting exercise to morph the
evolved code base into something which can be validated and understood
is that once again the violation of the most important engineering
principle "correctness first" has caused quite a few people to spend
valuable time on problems which could have been avoided in the first
place. The "features first" tinkering mindset really has to stop.
With that I want to say thanks to everyone involved in contributing to
this effort. Special thanks go to the following people (alphabetical
