rcu_dereference_check_fdtable() looks very wrong, 1. rcu_my_thread_group_empty() was added by 844b9a87 "vfs: fix RCU-lockdep false positive due to /proc" but it doesn't really fix the problem. A CLONE_THREAD (without CLONE_FILES) task can hit the same race with get_files_struct(). And otoh rcu_my_thread_group_empty() can suppress the correct warning if the caller is the CLONE_FILES (without CLONE_THREAD) task. 2. files->count == 1 check is not really right too. Even if this files_struct is not shared it is not safe to access it lockless unless the caller is the owner. Otoh, this check is sub-optimal. files->count == 0 always means it is safe to use it lockless even if files != current->files, but put_files_struct() has to take rcu_read_lock(). See the next patch. This patch removes the buggy checks and turns fcheck_files() into __fcheck_files() which uses rcu_dereference_raw(), the "unshared" callers, fget_light() and fget_raw_light(), can use it to avoid the warning from RCU-lockdep. fcheck_files() is trivially reimplemented as rcu_lockdep_assert() plus __fcheck_files().

Unfortunately the seqlock lockdep enablement can't be used in sched_clock(), since the lockdep infrastructure eventually calls into sched_clock(), which causes a deadlock. Thus, this patch changes all generic sched_clock() usage to use the raw_* methods. Acked-by:

Thomas Hellstrom bisected a regression where erratic 3D performance is experienced on virtual machines as measured by glxgears. It identified commit 58d081b5 ("sched/numa: Avoid overloading CPUs on a preferred NUMA node") as the problem which had modified the behaviour of effective_load. Effective load calculates the difference to the system-wide load if a scheduling entity was moved to another CPU. The task group is not heavier as a result of the move but overall system load can increase/decrease as a result of the change. Commit 58d081b5 ("sched/numa: Avoid overloading CPUs on a preferred NUMA node") changed effective_load to make it suitable for calculating if a particular NUMA node was compute overloaded. To reduce the cost of the function, it assumed that a current sched entity weight of 0 was uninteresting but that is not the case. wake_affine() uses a weight of 0 for sync wakeups on the grounds that it is assuming the waking task will sleep and not contribute to load in the near future. In this case, we still want to calculate the effective load of the sched entity hierarchy. As effective_load is no longer used by task_numa_compare since commit fb13c7ee (sched/numa: Use a system-wide search to find swap/migration candidates), this patch simply restores the historical behaviour.

In struct page we have enough space to fit long-size page->ptl there, but we use dynamically-allocated page->ptl if size(spinlock_t) is larger than sizeof(int). It hurts 64-bit architectures with CONFIG_GENERIC_LOCKBREAK, where sizeof(spinlock_t) == 8, but it easily fits into struct page. Signed-off-by:

Freezable kthreads and workqueues are fundamentally problematic in that they effectively introduce a big kernel lock widely used in the kernel and have already been the culprit of several deadlock scenarios. This is the latest occurrence. During resume, libata rescans all the ports and revalidates all pre-existing devices. If it determines that a device has gone missing, the device is removed from the system which involves invalidating block device and flushing bdi while holding driver core layer locks. Unfortunately, this can race with the rest of device resume. Because freezable kthreads and workqueues are thawed after device resume is complete and block device removal depends on freezable workqueues and kthreads (e.g. bdi_wq, jbd2) to make progress, this can lead to deadlock - block device removal can't proceed because kthreads are frozen and kthreads can't be thawed because device resume is blocked behind block device removal. 839a8e86 ("writeback: replace custom worker pool implementation with unbound workqueue") made this particular deadlock scenario more visible but the underlying problem has always been there - the original forker task and jbd2 are freezable too. In fact, this is highly likely just one of many possible deadlock scenarios given that freezer behaves as a big kernel lock and we don't have any debug mechanism around it. I believe the right thing to do is getting rid of freezable kthreads and workqueues. This is something fundamentally broken. For now, implement a funny workaround in libata - just avoid doing block device hot[un]plug while the system is frozen. Kernel engineering at its finest. :( v2: Add EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(pm_freezing) for cases where libata is built as a module. v3: Comment updated and polling interval changed to 10ms as suggested by Rafael. v4: Add #ifdef CONFIG_FREEZER around the hack as pm_freezing is not defined when FREEZER is not configured thus breaking build.

There are a few subtle races, between change_protection_range (used by mprotect and change_prot_numa) on one side, and NUMA page migration and compaction on the other side. The basic race is that there is a time window between when the PTE gets made non-present (PROT_NONE or NUMA), and the TLB is flushed. During that time, a CPU may continue writing to the page. This is fine most of the time, however compaction or the NUMA migration code may come in, and migrate the page away. When that happens, the CPU may continue writing, through the cached translation, to what is no longer the current memory location of the process. This only affects x86, which has a somewhat optimistic pte_accessible. All other architectures appear to be safe, and will either always flush, or flush whenever there is a valid mapping, even with no permissions (SPARC). The basic race looks like this: CPU A CPU B CPU C load TLB entry make entry PTE/PMD_NUMA fault on entry read/write old page start migrating page change PTE/PMD to new page read/write old page [*] flush TLB reload TLB from new entry read/write new page lose data [*] the old page may belong to a new user at this point! The obvious fix is to flush remote TLB entries, by making sure that pte_accessible aware of the fact that PROT_NONE and PROT_NUMA memory may still be accessible if there is a TLB flush pending for the mm. This should fix both NUMA migration and compaction. [mgorman@suse.de: fix build] Signed-off-by:

Commit 1b3a5d02 ("reboot: move arch/x86 reboot= handling to generic kernel") moved reboot= handling to generic code. In the process it also removed the code in native_machine_shutdown() which are moving reboot process to reboot_cpu/cpu0. I guess that thought must have been that all reboot paths are calling migrate_to_reboot_cpu(), so we don't need this special handling. But kexec reboot path (kernel_kexec()) is not calling migrate_to_reboot_cpu() so above change broke kexec. Now reboot can happen on non-boot cpu and when INIT is sent in second kerneo to bring up BP, it brings down the machine. So start calling migrate_to_reboot_cpu() in kexec reboot path to avoid this problem. Bisected by WANG Chao. Reported-by:

This patch touches the RT group scheduling case. Functions inc_rt_prio_smp() and dec_rt_prio_smp() change (global) rq's priority, while rt_rq passed to them may be not the top-level rt_rq. This is wrong, because changing of priority on a child level does not guarantee that the priority is the highest all over the rq. So, this leak makes RT balancing unusable. The short example: the task having the highest priority among all rq's RT tasks (no one other task has the same priority) are waking on a throttle rt_rq. The rq's cpupri is set to the task's priority equivalent, but real rq->rt.highest_prio.curr is less. The patch below fixes the problem. Signed-off-by:

Commit 42eb088e (sched: Avoid NULL dereference on sd_busy) corrected a NULL dereference on sd_busy but the fix also altered what scheduling domain it used for the 'sd_llc' percpu variable. One impact of this is that a task selecting a runqueue may consider idle CPUs that are not cache siblings as candidates for running. Tasks are then running on CPUs that are not cache hot. This was found through bisection where ebizzy threads were not seeing equal performance and it looked like a scheduling fairness issue. This patch mitigates but does not completely fix the problem on all machines tested implying there may be an additional bug or a common root cause. Here are the average range of performance seen by individual ebizzy threads.

Currently, only one PMU in a context gets disabled during unthrottling and event_sched_{out,in}(), however, events in one context may belong to different pmus, which results in PMUs being reprogrammed while they are still enabled. This means that mixed PMU use [which is rare in itself] resulted in potentially completely unreliable results: corrupted events, bogus results, etc. This patch temporarily disables PMUs that correspond to each event in the context while these events are being modified.

Instead of removing cgroup id right after all the csses have been offlined, we should do that after csses have been destroyed. To make sure an invalid css pointer won't be returned after the css is destroyed, make sure css_from_id() returns NULL in this case. tj: Updated comment to note planned changes for cgrp->id.

Ftrace currently initializes only the online CPUs. This implementation has two problems: - If we online a CPU after we enable the function profile, and then run the test, we will lose the trace information on that CPU. Steps to reproduce: # echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online # cd <debugfs>/tracing/ # echo <some function name> >> set_ftrace_filter # echo 1 > function_profile_enabled # echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online # run test - If we offline a CPU before we enable the function profile, we will not clear the trace information when we enable the function profile. It will trouble the users. Steps to reproduce: # cd <debugfs>/tracing/ # echo <some function name> >> set_ftrace_filter # echo 1 > function_profile_enabled # run test # cat trace_stat/function* # echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online # echo 0 > function_profile_enabled # echo 1 > function_profile_enabled # cat trace_stat/function* # run test # cat trace_stat/function* So it is better that we initialize the ftrace profiler for each possible cpu every time we enable the function profile instead of just the online ones.

Fix the gathering of certificates from both the source tree and the build tree to correctly calculate the pathnames of all the certificates. The problem was that if the default generated cert, signing_key.x509, didn't exist then it would not have a path attached and if it did, it would have a path attached. This means that the contents of kernel/.x509.list would change between the first compilation in a directory and the second. After the second it would remain stable because the signing_key.x509 file exists. The consequence was that the kernel would get relinked unconditionally on the second recompilation. The second recompilation would also show something like this: X.509 certificate list changed CERTS kernel/x509_certificate_list - Including cert /home/torvalds/v2.6/linux/signing_key.x509 AS kernel/system_certificates.o LD kernel/built-in.o which is why the relink would happen. Unfortunately, it isn't a simple matter of just sticking a path on the front of the filename of the certificate in the build directory as make can't then work out how to build it. So the path has to be prepended to the name for sorting and duplicate elimination and then removed for the make rule if it is in the build tree. Reported-by:

When debugging the read-only hugepage case, I was confused by the fact that get_futex_key() did an access_ok() only for the non-shared futex case, since the user address checking really isn't in any way specific to the private key handling. Now, it turns out that the shared key handling does effectively do the equivalent checks inside get_user_pages_fast() (it doesn't actually check the address range on x86, but does check the page protections for being a user page). So it wasn't actually a bug, but the fact that we treat the address differently for private and shared futexes threw me for a loop. Just move the check up, so that it gets done for both cases. Also, use the 'rw' parameter for the type, even if it doesn't actually matter any more (it's a historical artifact of the old racy i386 "page faults from kernel space don't check write protections").

The hugepage code had the exact same bug that regular pages had in commit 7485d0d3 ("futexes: Remove rw parameter from get_futex_key()"). The regular page case was fixed by commit 9ea71503 ("futex: Fix regression with read only mappings"), but the transparent hugepage case (added in a5b338f2: "thp: update futex compound knowledge") case remained broken. Found by Dave Jones and his trinity tool. Reported-and-tested-by:

Christian suffers from a bad BIOS that wrecks his i5's TSC sync. This results in him occasionally seeing time going backwards - which crashes the scheduler ... Most of our time accounting can actually handle that except the most common one; the tick time update of sched_fair. There is a further problem with that code; previously we assumed that because we get a tick every TICK_NSEC our time delta could never exceed 32bits and math was simpler. However, ever since Frederic managed to get NO_HZ_FULL merged; this is no longer the case since now a task can run for a long time indeed without getting a tick. It only takes about ~4.2 seconds to overflow our u32 in nanoseconds. This means we not only need to better deal with time going backwards; but also means we need to be able to deal with large deltas. This patch reworks the entire code and uses mul_u64_u32_shr() as proposed by Andy a long while ago. We express our virtual time scale factor in a u32 multiplier and shift right and the 32bit mul_u64_u32_shr() implementation reduces to a single 32x32->64 multiply if the time delta is still short (common case). For 64bit a 64x64->128 multiply can be used if ARCH_SUPPORTS_INT128. Reported-and-Tested-by:

Apart from data-type specific alignment constraints, there are also architecture-specific alignment requirements. For example, on s390 symbols must be on even addresses implying a 2-byte alignment. If the system_certificate_list_end symbol is on an odd address and if this address is loaded, the least-significant bit is ignored. As a result, the load_system_certificate_list() fails to load the certificates because of a wrong certificate length calculation. To be safe, align system_certificate_list on an 8-byte boundary. Also improve the length calculation of the system_certificate_list content. Introduce a system_certificate_list_size (8-byte aligned because of unsigned long) variable that stores the length. Let the linker calculate this size by introducing a start and end label for the certificate content. Signed-off-by:

Add a flag to tell the PCI subsystem that kernel is shutting down in preparation to kexec a kernel. Add code in PCI subsystem to use this flag to clear Bus Master bit on PCI devices only in case of kexec reboot. This fixes a power-off problem on Acer Aspire V5-573G and likely other machines and avoids any other issues caused by clearing Bus Master bit on PCI devices in normal shutdown path. The problem was introduced by b566a22c ("PCI: disable Bus Master on PCI device shutdown").

It has been reported that boot up with FTRACE_SELFTEST enabled can take a very long time. There can be stalls of over a minute. This was tracked down to the synchronize_sched() called when a system call event is disabled. As the self tests enable and disable thousands of events, this makes the synchronize_sched() get called thousands of times. The synchornize_sched() was added with d562aff9 "tracing: Add support for SOFT_DISABLE to syscall events" which caused this regression (added in 3.13-rc1). The synchronize_sched() is to protect against the events being accessed when a tracer instance is being deleted. When an instance is being deleted all the events associated to it are unregistered. The synchronize_sched() makes sure that no more users are running when it finishes. Instead of calling synchronize_sched() for all syscall events, we only need to call it once, after the events are unregistered and before the instance is deleted. The event_mutex is held during this action to prevent new users from enabling events. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20131203124120.427b9661@gandalf.local.home Reported-by:

If CONFIG_NO_HZ=n tick_nohz_get_sleep_length() returns NSEC_PER_SEC/HZ. If CONFIG_NO_HZ=y and the nohz functionality is disabled via the command line option "nohz=off" or not enabled due to missing hardware support, then tick_nohz_get_sleep_length() returns 0. That happens because ts->sleep_length is never set in that case. Set it to NSEC_PER_SEC/HZ when the NOHZ mode is inactive. Reported-by:

If a cgroup file implements either read_map() or read_seq_string(), such file is served using seq_file by overriding file->f_op to cgroup_seqfile_operations, which also overrides the release method to single_release() from cgroup_file_release(). Because cgroup_file_open() didn't use to acquire any resources, this used to be fine, but since f7d58818 ("cgroup: pin cgroup_subsys_state when opening a cgroupfs file"), cgroup_file_open() pins the css (cgroup_subsys_state) which is put by cgroup_file_release(). The patch forgot to update the release path for seq_files and each open/release cycle leaks a css reference. Fix it by updating cgroup_file_release() to also handle seq_files and using it for seq_file release path too. Signed-off-by:

I tripped over the magic asm foo which has a single need_resched check and schedule point for both sys call return and interrupt return. So you need the schedule_preempt_irq() for kernel preemption from interrupt return while on a normal syscall preemption a schedule would be sufficient. But using schedule_preempt_irq() is not harmful here in any way. It just sets the preempt_active bit also in cases where it would not be required. Even on preempt=n kernels adding the preempt_active bit is completely harmless. So instead of having an extra function, moving the existing one out of the ifdef PREEMPT looks like the sanest thing to do. It would also allow getting rid of various other sti/schedule/cli asm magic in other archs. Reported-and-Tested-by:

Can we > safely revert that new extra check? The two fundamental things I know we can not allow are: - A shared signal queue aka CLONE_THREAD. Because we compute the pid and uid of the signal when we place it in the queue. - Changing the pid and by extention pid_namespace of an existing process. From a parents perspective there is nothing special about the pid namespace, to deny CLONE_PARENT, because the parent simply won't know or care. From the childs perspective all that is special really are shared signal queues. User mode threading with CLONE_PARENT|CLONE_VM|CLONE_SIGHAND and tasks in different pid namespaces is almost certainly going to break because it is complicated. But shared signal handlers can look at per thread information to know which pid namespace a process is in, so I don't know of any reason not to support CLONE_PARENT|CLONE_VM|CLONE_SIGHAND threads at the kernel level. It would be absolutely stupid to implement but that is a different thing. So hmm. Because it can do no harm, and because it is a regression let's remove the CLONE_PARENT check and send it stable.

Well, it covered the function tracer by adding checks in __register_ftrace_function(). The problem is that the function graph tracer circumvents that (for a slight efficiency gain when function graph trace is running with a function tracer. The gain was not worth this). The problem came with ftrace_startup() which should always be called after __register_ftrace_function(), if you want this bug to be completely fixed. Anyway, this solution moves __register_ftrace_function() inside of ftrace_startup() and removes the need to call them both. Reported-by:

This reverts commit c2fda509. c2fda509 removed lockdep annotation from work_on_cpu() to work around the PCI path that calls work_on_cpu() from within a work_on_cpu() work item (PF driver .probe() method -> pci_enable_sriov() -> add VFs -> VF driver .probe method). 961da7fb6b22 ("PCI: Avoid unnecessary CPU switch when calling driver .probe() method) avoids that recursive work_on_cpu() use in a different way, so this revert restores the work_on_cpu() lockdep annotation.

When the system enters suspend, it disables all interrupts in suspend_device_irqs(), including the interrupts marked EARLY_RESUME. On the resume side things are different. The EARLY_RESUME interrupts are reenabled in sys_core_ops->resume and the non EARLY_RESUME interrupts are reenabled in the normal system resume path. When suspend_noirq() failed or suspend is aborted for any other reason, we might omit the resume side call to sys_core_ops->resume() and therefor the interrupts marked EARLY_RESUME are not reenabled and stay disabled forever. To solve this, enable all irqs unconditionally in irq_resume() regardless whether interrupts marked EARLY_RESUMEhave been already enabled or not. This might try to reenable already enabled interrupts in the non failure case, but the only affected platform is XEN and it has been confirmed that it does not cause any side effects.

When one work starts execution, the high bits of work's data contain pool ID. It can represent a maximum of WORK_OFFQ_POOL_NONE. Pool ID is assigned WORK_OFFQ_POOL_NONE when the work being initialized indicating that no pool is associated and get_work_pool() uses it to check the associated pool. So if worker_pool_assign_id() assigns a ID greater than or equal WORK_OFFQ_POOL_NONE to a pool, it triggers leakage, and it may break the non-reentrance guarantee. This patch fix this issue by modifying the worker_pool_assign_id() function calling idr_alloc() by setting @end param WORK_OFFQ_POOL_NONE. Furthermore, in the current implementation, the BUILD_BUG_ON() in init_workqueues makes no sense. The number of worker pools needed cannot be determined at compile time, because the number of backing pools for UNBOUND workqueues is dynamic based on the assigned custom attributes. So remove it. tj: Minor comment and indentation updates. Signed-off-by:

An ordered workqueue implements execution ordering by using single pool_workqueue with max_active == 1. On a given pool_workqueue, work items are processed in FIFO order and limiting max_active to 1 enforces the queued work items to be processed one by one. Unfortunately, 4c16bd32 ("workqueue: implement NUMA affinity for unbound workqueues") accidentally broke this guarantee by applying NUMA affinity to ordered workqueues too. On NUMA setups, an ordered workqueue would end up with separate pool_workqueues for different nodes. Each pool_workqueue still limits max_active to 1 but multiple work items may be executed concurrently and out of order depending on which node they are queued to. Fix it by using dedicated ordered_wq_attrs[] when creating ordered workqueues. The new attrs match the unbound ones except that no_numa is always set thus forcing all NUMA nodes to share the default pool_workqueue. While at it, add sanity check in workqueue creation path which verifies that an ordered workqueues has only the default pool_workqueue. Signed-off-by:

Since be445626 ("cgroup: remove synchronize_rcu() from cgroup_diput()"), cgroup destruction path makes use of workqueue. css freeing is performed from a work item from that point on and a later commit, ea15f8cc ("cgroup: split cgroup destruction into two steps"), moves css offlining to workqueue too. As cgroup destruction isn't depended upon for memory reclaim, the destruction work items were put on the system_wq; unfortunately, some controller may block in the destruction path for considerable duration while holding cgroup_mutex. As large part of destruction path is synchronized through cgroup_mutex, when combined with high rate of cgroup removals, this has potential to fill up system_wq's max_active of 256. Also, it turns out that memcg's css destruction path ends up queueing and waiting for work items on system_wq through work_on_cpu(). If such operation happens while system_wq is fully occupied by cgroup destruction work items, work_on_cpu() can't make forward progress because system_wq is full and other destruction work items on system_wq can't make forward progress because the work item waiting for work_on_cpu() is holding cgroup_mutex, leading to deadlock. This can be fixed by queueing destruction work items on a separate workqueue. This patch creates a dedicated workqueue - cgroup_destroy_wq - for this purpose. As these work items shouldn't have inter-dependencies and mostly serialized by cgroup_mutex anyway, giving high concurrency level doesn't buy anything and the workqueue's @max_active is set to 1 so that destruction work items are executed one by one on each CPU. Hugh Dickins: Because cgroup_init() is run before init_workqueues(), cgroup_destroy_wq can't be allocated from cgroup_init(). Do it from a separate core_initcall(). In the future, we probably want to reorder so that workqueue init happens before cgroup_init(). Signed-off-by:
