sched/idle: Fix arch_cpu_idle() vs tracing

2020-12-16T09:58:32Z

[ Upstream commit 58c644ba512cfbc2e39b758dd979edd1d6d00e27 ] We call arch_cpu_idle() with RCU disabled, but then use local_irq_{en,dis}able(), which invokes tracing, which relies on RCU. Switch all arch_cpu_idle() implementations to use raw_local_irq_{en,dis}able() and carefully manage the lockdep,rcu,tracing state like we do in entry. (XXX: we really should change arch_cpu_idle() to not return with interrupts enabled) Reported-by: Sven Schnelle Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) Reviewed-by: Mark Rutland Tested-by: Mark Rutland Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20201120114925.594122626@infradead.org Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin

sparc64: remove mm_cpumask clearing to fix kthread_use_mm race

2020-11-05T10:51:13Z

[ Upstream commit bafb056ce27940c9994ea905336aa8f27b4f7275 ] The de facto (and apparently uncommented) standard for using an mm had, thanks to this code in sparc if nothing else, been that you must have a reference on mm_users *and that reference must have been obtained with mmget()*, i.e., from a thread with a reference to mm_users that had used the mm. The introduction of mmget_not_zero() in commit d2005e3f41d4 ("userfaultfd: don't pin the user memory in userfaultfd_file_create()") allowed mm_count holders to aoperate on user mappings asynchronously from the actual threads using the mm, but they were not to load those mappings into their TLB (i.e., walking vmas and page tables is okay, kthread_use_mm() is not). io_uring 2b188cc1bb857 ("Add io_uring IO interface") added code which does a kthread_use_mm() from a mmget_not_zero() refcount. The problem with this is code which previously assumed mm == current->mm and mm->mm_users == 1 implies the mm will remain single-threaded at least until this thread creates another mm_users reference, has now broken. arch/sparc/kernel/smp_64.c: if (atomic_read(&mm->mm_users) == 1) { cpumask_copy(mm_cpumask(mm), cpumask_of(cpu)); goto local_flush_and_out; } vs fs/io_uring.c if (unlikely(!(ctx->flags & IORING_SETUP_SQPOLL) || !mmget_not_zero(ctx->sqo_mm))) return -EFAULT; kthread_use_mm(ctx->sqo_mm); mmget_not_zero() could come in right after the mm_users == 1 test, then kthread_use_mm() which sets its CPU in the mm_cpumask. That update could be lost if cpumask_copy() occurs afterward. I propose we fix this by allowing mmget_not_zero() to be a first-class reference, and not have this obscure undocumented and unchecked restriction. The basic fix for sparc64 is to remove its mm_cpumask clearing code. The optimisation could be effectively restored by sending IPIs to mm_cpumask members and having them remove themselves from mm_cpumask. This is more tricky so I leave it as an exercise for someone with a sparc64 SMP. powerpc has a (currently similarly broken) example. Signed-off-by: Nicholas Piggin Acked-by: David S.

all arch: remove system call sys_sysctl

2020-08-15T02:56:56Z

Since commit 61a47c1ad3a4dc ("sysctl: Remove the sysctl system call"), sys_sysctl is actually unavailable: any input can only return an error. We have been warning about people using the sysctl system call for years and believe there are no more users. Even if there are users of this interface if they have not complained or fixed their code by now they probably are not going to, so there is no point in warning them any longer. So completely remove sys_sysctl on all architectures.

Pull locking updates from Thomas Gleixner: "A set of locking fixes and updates: - Untangle the header spaghetti which causes build failures in various situations caused by the lockdep additions to seqcount to validate that the write side critical sections are non-preemptible. - The seqcount associated lock debug addons which were blocked by the above fallout. seqcount writers contrary to seqlock writers must be externally serialized, which usually happens via locking - except for strict per CPU seqcounts. As the lock is not part of the seqcount, lockdep cannot validate that the lock is held. This new debug mechanism adds the concept of associated locks. sequence count has now lock type variants and corresponding initializers which take a pointer to the associated lock used for writer serialization. If lockdep is enabled the pointer is stored and write_seqcount_begin() has a lockdep assertion to validate that the lock is held. Aside of the type and the initializer no other code changes are required at the seqcount usage sites. The rest of the seqcount API is unchanged and determines the type at compile time with the help of _Generic which is possible now that the minimal GCC version has been moved up. Adding this lockdep coverage unearthed a handful of seqcount bugs which have been addressed already independent of this. While generally useful this comes with a Trojan Horse twist: On RT kernels the write side critical section can become preemtible if the writers are serialized by an associated lock, which leads to the well known reader preempts writer livelock. RT prevents this by storing the associated lock pointer independent of lockdep in the seqcount and changing the reader side to block on the lock when a reader detects that a writer is in the write side critical section. - Conversion of seqcount usage sites to associated types and initializers" * tag 'locking-urgent-2020-08-10' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (25 commits) locking/seqlock, headers: Untangle the spaghetti monster locking, arch/ia64: Reduce header dependencies by moving XTP bits into the new header x86/headers: Remove APIC headers from seqcount: More consistent seqprop names seqcount: Compress SEQCNT_LOCKNAME_ZERO() seqlock: Fold seqcount_LOCKNAME_init() definition seqlock: Fold seqcount_LOCKNAME_t definition seqlock: s/__SEQ_LOCKDEP/__SEQ_LOCK/g hrtimer: Use sequence counter with associated raw spinlock kvm/eventfd: Use sequence counter with associated spinlock userfaultfd: Use sequence counter with associated spinlock NFSv4: Use sequence counter with associated spinlock iocost: Use sequence counter with associated spinlock raid5: Use sequence counter with associated spinlock vfs: Use sequence counter with associated spinlock timekeeping: Use sequence counter with associated raw spinlock xfrm: policy: Use sequence counters with associated lock netfilter: nft_set_rbtree: Use sequence counter with associated rwlock netfilter: conntrack: Use sequence counter with associated spinlock sched: tasks: Use sequence counter with associated spinlock ...

mm: remove unneeded includes of

2020-08-07T18:33:26Z

Patch series "mm: cleanup usage of " Most architectures have very similar versions of pXd_alloc_one() and pXd_free_one() for intermediate levels of page table. These patches add generic versions of these functions in and enable use of the generic functions where appropriate. In addition, functions declared and defined in headers are used mostly by core mm and early mm initialization in arch and there is no actual reason to have the included all over the place. The first patch in this series removes unneeded includes of In the end it didn't work out as neatly as I hoped and moving pXd_alloc_track() definitions to would require unnecessary changes to arches that have custom page table allocations, so I've decided to move lib/ioremap.c to mm/ and make pgalloc-track.h local to mm/. This patch (of 8): In most cases header is required only for allocations of page table memory. Most of the .c files that include that header do not use symbols declared in and do not require that header. As for the other header files that used to include , it is possible to move that include into the .c file that actually uses symbols from and drop the include from the header file. The process was somewhat automated using sed -i -E '/[<"]asm\/pgalloc\.h/d' \ $(grep -L -w -f /tmp/xx \ $(git grep -E -l '[<"]asm/pgalloc\.h')) where /tmp/xx contains all the symbols defined in arch/*/include/asm/pgalloc.h.
