Pull close_range() implementation from Christian Brauner:
"This adds the close_range() syscall. It allows to efficiently close a
range of file descriptors up to all file descriptors of a calling
task.
This is coordinated with the FreeBSD folks which have copied our
version of this syscall and in the meantime have already merged it in
April 2019:
https://reviews.freebsd.org/D21627
https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base?view=revision&revision=359836
The syscall originally came up in a discussion around the new mount
API and making new file descriptor types cloexec by default. During
this discussion, Al suggested the close_range() syscall.
First, it helps to close all file descriptors of an exec()ing task.
This can be done safely via (quoting Al's example from [1] verbatim):
/* that exec is sensitive */
unshare(CLONE_FILES);
/* we don't want anything past stderr here */
close_range(3, ~0U);
execve(....);
The code snippet above is one way of working around the problem that
file descriptors are not cloexec by default. This is aggravated by the
fact that we can't just switch them over without massively regressing
userspace. For a whole class of programs having an in-kernel method of
closing all file descriptors is very helpful (e.g. demons, service
managers, programming language standard libraries, container managers
etc.).
Second, it allows userspace to avoid implementing closing all file
descriptors by parsing through /proc/<pid>/fd/* and calling close() on
each file descriptor and other hacks. From looking at various
large(ish) userspace code bases this or similar patterns are very
common in service managers, container runtimes, and programming
language runtimes/standard libraries such as Python or Rust.
In addition, the syscall will also work for tasks that do not have
procfs mounted and on kernels that do not have procfs support compiled
in. In such situations the only way to make sure that all file
descriptors are closed is to call close() on each file descriptor up
to UINT_MAX or RLIMIT_NOFILE, OPEN_MAX trickery.
Based on Linus' suggestion close_range() also comes with a new flag
CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE to more elegantly handle file descriptor dropping
right before exec. This would usually be expressed in the sequence:
unshare(CLONE_FILES);
close_range(3, ~0U);
as pointed out by Linus it might be desirable to have this be a part
of close_range() itself under a new flag CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE which
gets especially handy when we're closing all file descriptors above a
certain threshold.
Test-suite as always included"

Pull fork cleanups from Christian Brauner:
"This is cleanup series from when we reworked a chunk of the process
creation paths in the kernel and switched to struct
{kernel_}clone_args.
High-level this does two main things:
- Remove the double export of both do_fork() and _do_fork() where
do_fork() used the incosistent legacy clone calling convention.
Now we only export _do_fork() which is based on struct
kernel_clone_args.
- Remove the copy_thread_tls()/copy_thread() split making the
architecture specific HAVE_COYP_THREAD_TLS config option obsolete.
This switches all remaining architectures to select
HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS and thus to the copy_thread_tls() calling
convention. The current split makes the process creation codepaths
more convoluted than they need to be. Each architecture has their own
copy_thread() function unless it selects HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS then it
has a copy_thread_tls() function.
The split is not needed anymore nowadays, all architectures support
CLONE_SETTLS but quite a few of them never bothered to select
HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS and instead simply continued to use copy_thread()
and use the old calling convention. Removing this split cleans up the
process creation codepaths and paves the way for implementing clone3()
on such architectures since it requires the copy_thread_tls() calling
convention.
After having made each architectures support copy_thread_tls() this
series simply renames that function back to copy_thread(). It also
switches all architectures that call do_fork() directly over to
_do_fork() and the struct kernel_clone_args calling convention. This
is a corollary of switching the architectures that did not yet support
it over to copy_thread_tls() since do_fork() is conditional on not
supporting copy_thread_tls() (Mostly because it lacks a separate
argument for tls which is trivial to fix but there's no need for this
function to exist.).
The do_fork() removal is in itself already useful as it allows to to
remove the export of both do_fork() and _do_fork() we currently have
in favor of only _do_fork(). This has already been discussed back when
we added clone3(). The legacy clone() calling convention is - as is
probably well-known - somewhat odd:
#
# ABI hall of shame
#
config CLONE_BACKWARDS
config CLONE_BACKWARDS2
config CLONE_BACKWARDS3
that is aggravated by the fact that some architectures such as sparc
follow the CLONE_BACKWARDSx calling convention but don't really select
the corresponding config option since they call do_fork() directly.
So do_fork() enforces a somewhat arbitrary calling convention in the
first place that doesn't really help the individual architectures that
deviate from it. They can thus simply be switched to _do_fork()
enforcing a single calling convention. (I really hope that any new
architectures will __not__ try to implement their own calling
conventions...)
Most architectures already have made a similar switch (m68k comes to
mind).
Overall this removes more code than it adds even with a good portion
of added comments. It simplifies a chunk of arch specific assembly
either by moving the code into C or by simply rewriting the assembly.
Architectures that have been touched in non-trivial ways have all been
actually boot and stress tested: sparc and ia64 have been tested with
Debian 9 images. They are the two architectures which have been
touched the most. All non-trivial changes to architectures have seen
acks from the relevant maintainers. nios2 with a custom built
buildroot image. h8300 I couldn't get something bootable to test on
but the changes have been fairly automatic and I'm sure we'll hear
people yell if I broke something there.
All other architectures that have been touched in trivial ways have
been compile tested for each single patch of the series via git rebase
-x "make ..." v5.8-rc2. arm{64} and x86{_64} have been boot tested
even though they have just been trivially touched (removal of the
HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS macro from their Kconfig) because well they are
basically "core architectures" and since it is trivial to get your
hands on a useable image"

Pull thread updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the changes to add the missing support for attaching to
time namespaces via pidfds.
Last cycle setns() was changed to support attaching to multiple
namespaces atomically. This requires all namespaces to have a point of
no return where they can't fail anymore.
Specifically, <namespace-type>_install() is allowed to perform
permission checks and install the namespace into the new struct nsset
that it has been given but it is not allowed to make visible changes
to the affected task. Once <namespace-type>_install() returns,
anything that the given namespace type additionally requires to be
setup needs to ideally be done in a function that can't fail or if it
fails the failure must be non-fatal.
For time namespaces the relevant functions that fell into this
category were timens_set_vvar_page() and vdso_join_timens(). The
latter could still fail although it didn't need to. This function is
only implemented for vdso_join_timens() in current mainline. As
discussed on-list (cf. [1]), in order to make setns() support time
namespaces when attaching to multiple namespaces at once properly we
changed vdso_join_timens() to always succeed. So vdso_join_timens()
replaces the mmap_write_lock_killable() with mmap_read_lock().
Please note that arm is about to grow vdso support for time namespaces
(possibly this merge window). We've synced on this change and arm64
also uses mmap_read_lock(), i.e. makes vdso_join_timens() a function
that can't fail. Once the changes here and the arm64 changes have
landed, vdso_join_timens() should be turned into a void function so
it's obvious to callers and implementers on other architectures that
the expectation is that it can't fail.
We didn't do this right away because it would've introduced
unnecessary merge conflicts between the two trees for no major gain.
As always, tests included"

Pull execve updates from Eric Biederman:
"During the development of v5.7 I ran into bugs and quality of
implementation issues related to exec that could not be easily fixed
because of the way exec is implemented. So I have been diggin into
exec and cleaning up what I can.
This cycle I have been looking at different ideas and different
implementations to see what is possible to improve exec, and cleaning
the way exec interfaces with in kernel users. Only cleaning up the
interfaces of exec with rest of the kernel has managed to stabalize
and make it through review in time for v5.9-rc1 resulting in 2 sets of
changes this cycle.
- Implement kernel_execve
- Make the user mode driver code a better citizen
With kernel_execve the code size got a little larger as the copying of
parameters from userspace and copying of parameters from userspace is
now separate. The good news is kernel threads no longer need to play
games with set_fs to use exec. Which when combined with the rest of
Christophs set_fs changes should security bugs with set_fs much more
difficult"

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"The most significant change here is the extension of the Energy Model
to cover non-CPU devices (as well as CPUs) from Lukasz Luba.
There is also some new hardware support (Ice Lake server idle states
table for intel_idle, Sapphire Rapids and Power Limit 4 support in the
RAPL driver), some new functionality in the existing drivers (eg. a
new switch to disable/enable CPU energy-efficiency optimizations in
intel_pstate, delayed timers in devfreq), some assorted fixes (cpufreq
core, intel_pstate, intel_idle) and cleanups (eg. cpuidle-psci,
devfreq), including the elimination of W=1 build warnings from cpufreq
done by Lee Jones.

interface and fix the setting of EPP via sysfs in the active
mode.
* Eliminate a static checker warning and clean up a kerneldoc
comment.

- Improve uclamp performance by using a static key for the fast path
- Add the "sched_util_clamp_min_rt_default" sysctl, to optimize for

values become larger. This is now replaced with more precise
arithmetics, using the new mul_u64_u64_div_u64() helper in math64.h.

- Add support for zstd compressed kernel
- Define __DISABLE_EXPORTS in Makefile
- Remove __DISABLE_EXPORTS definition from kaslr.c
- Bump the heap size for zstd.
- Update the documentation.
Integrates the ZSTD decompression code to the x86 pre-boot code.
Zstandard requires slightly more memory during the kernel decompression
on x86 (192 KB vs 64 KB), and the memory usage is independent of the
window size.
__DISABLE_EXPORTS is now defined in the Makefile, which covers both
the existing use in kaslr.c, and the use needed by the zstd decompressor
in misc.c.
This patch has been boot tested with both a zstd and gzip compressed
kernel on i386 and x86_64 using buildroot and QEMU.
Additionally, this has been tested in production on x86_64 devices.
We saw a 2 second boot time reduction by switching kernel compression
from xz to zstd.

Bump the ZO_z_extra_bytes margin for zstd.
Zstd needs 3 bytes per 128 KB, and has a 22 byte fixed overhead.
Zstd needs to maintain 128 KB of space at all times, since that is
the maximum block size. See the comments regarding in-place
decompression added in lib/decompress_unzstd.c for details.
The existing code is written so that all the compression algorithms use
the same ZO_z_extra_bytes. It is taken to be the maximum of the growth
rate plus the maximum fixed overhead. The comments just above this diff
state that:

0day reported a possible circular locking dependency:
Chain exists of:
&irq_desc_lock_class --> console_owner --> &port_lock_key
Possible unsafe locking scenario:
CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
lock(&port_lock_key);
lock(console_owner);
lock(&port_lock_key);
lock(&irq_desc_lock_class);
The reason for this is a printk() in the i8259 interrupt chip driver
which is invoked with the irq descriptor lock held, which reverses the
lock operations vs. printk() from arbitrary contexts.
Switch the printk() to printk_deferred() to avoid that.

John reported that on a RK3288 system the perf per CPU interrupts are all
affine to CPU0 and provided the analysis:
"It looks like what happens is that because the interrupts are not per-CPU
in the hardware, armpmu_request_irq() calls irq_force_affinity() while
the interrupt is deactivated and then request_irq() with IRQF_PERCPU |
IRQF_NOBALANCING.
Now when irq_startup() runs with IRQ_STARTUP_NORMAL, it calls
irq_setup_affinity() which returns early because IRQF_PERCPU and
IRQF_NOBALANCING are set, leaving the interrupt on its original CPU."
This was broken by the recent commit which blocked interrupt affinity
setting in hardware before activation of the interrupt. While this works in
general, it does not work for this particular case. As contrary to the
initial analysis not all interrupt chip drivers implement an activate
callback, the safe cure is to make the deferred interrupt affinity setting
at activation time opt-in.
Implement the necessary core logic and make the two irqchip implementations
for which this is required opt-in. In hindsight this would have been the
right thing to do, but ...

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 Intel architecture defines a set of Serializing Instructions (a
detailed definition can be found in Vol.3 Section 8.3 of the Intel "main"
manual, SDM). However, these instructions do more than what is required,
have side effects and/or may be rather invasive. Furthermore, some of
these instructions are only available in kernel mode or may cause VMExits.
Thus, software using these instructions only to serialize execution (as
defined in the manual) must handle the undesired side effects.
As indicated in the name, SERIALIZE is a new Intel architecture
Serializing Instruction. Crucially, it does not have any of the mentioned
side effects. Also, it does not cause VMExit and can be used in user mode.
This new instruction is currently documented in the latest "extensions"
manual (ISE). It will appear in the "main" manual in the future.
