It's currently nigh impossible to get these pr_debug()s to print something. Being guarded by initcall_debug means one has to enable tons of other debug output during boot, and the system_state condition further means it's impossible to get them when loading modules later. Also, the compiler can't know that these global conditions do not change, so there are W=2 warnings kernel/async.c:125:9: warning: `calltime' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized] kernel/async.c:300:9: warning: `starttime' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized] Make it possible, for a DYNAMIC_DEBUG kernel, to get these to print their messages by booting with appropriate 'dyndbg="file async.c +p"' command line argument. For a non-DYNAMIC_DEBUG kernel, pr_debug() compiles to nothing. This does cost doing an unconditional ktime_get() for the starttime value, but the corresponding ktime_get for the end time can be elided by factoring it into a function which only gets called if the printk() arguments end up being evaluated.

request_free_mem_region() is used to find an empty range of physical addresses for hotplugging ZONE_DEVICE memory. It does this by iterating over the range of possible addresses using region_intersects() to see if the range is free before calling request_mem_region() to allocate the region. However the resource_lock is dropped between these two calls meaning by the time request_mem_region() is called in request_free_mem_region() another thread may have already reserved the requested region. This results in unexpected failures and a message in the kernel log from hitting this condition: /* * mm/hmm.c reserves physical addresses which then * become unavailable to other users. Conflicts are * not expected. Warn to aid debugging if encountered. */ if (conflict->desc == IORES_DESC_DEVICE_PRIVATE_MEMORY) { pr_warn("Unaddressable device %s %pR conflicts with %pR", conflict->name, conflict, res); These unexpected failures can be corrected by holding resource_lock across the two calls. This also requires memory allocation to be performed prior to taking the lock.

It used to be true that we can have system RAM (IORESOURCE_SYSTEM_RAM | IORESOURCE_BUSY) only on the first level in the resource tree. However, this is no longer holds for driver-managed system RAM (i.e., added via dax/kmem and virtio-mem), which gets added on lower levels, for example, inside device containers. IORESOURCE_SYSTEM_RAM is defined as IORESOURCE_MEM | IORESOURCE_SYSRAM and just a special type of IORESOURCE_MEM. The function walk_mem_res() only considers the first level and is used in arch/x86/mm/ioremap.c:__ioremap_check_mem() only. We currently fail to identify System RAM added by dax/kmem and virtio-mem as "IORES_MAP_SYSTEM_RAM", for example, allowing for remapping of such "normal RAM" in __ioremap_caller(). Let's find all IORESOURCE_MEM | IORESOURCE_BUSY resources, making the function behave similar to walk_system_ram_res().

Patch series "kernel/resource: make walk_system_ram_res() and walk_mem_res() search the whole tree", v2. Playing with kdump+virtio-mem I noticed that kexec_file_load() does not consider System RAM added via dax/kmem and virtio-mem when preparing the elf header for kdump. Looking into the details, the logic used in walk_system_ram_res() and walk_mem_res() seems to be outdated. walk_system_ram_range() already does the right thing, let's change walk_system_ram_res() and walk_mem_res(), and clean up. Loading a kdump kernel via "kexec -p -s" ... will result in the kdump kernel to also dump dax/kmem and virtio-mem added System RAM now. Note: kexec-tools on x86-64 also have to be updated to consider this memory in the kexec_load() case when processing /proc/iomem. This patch (of 3): It used to be true that we can have system RAM (IORESOURCE_SYSTEM_RAM | IORESOURCE_BUSY) only on the first level in the resource tree. However, this is no longer holds for driver-managed system RAM (i.e., added via dax/kmem and virtio-mem), which gets added on lower levels, for example, inside device containers. We have two users of walk_system_ram_res(), which currently only consideres the first level: a) kernel/kexec_file.c:kexec_walk_resources() -- We properly skip IORESOURCE_SYSRAM_DRIVER_MANAGED resources via locate_mem_hole_callback(), so even after this change, we won't be placing kexec images onto dax/kmem and virtio-mem added memory. No change. b) arch/x86/kernel/crash.c:fill_up_crash_elf_data() -- we're currently not adding relevant ranges to the crash elf header, resulting in them not getting dumped via kdump. This change fixes loading a crashkernel via kexec_file_load() and including dax/kmem and virtio-mem added System RAM in the crashdump on x86-64. Note that e.g,, arm64 relies on memblock data and, therefore, always considers all added System RAM already. Let's find all IORESOURCE_SYSTEM_RAM | IORESOURCE_BUSY resources, making the function behave like walk_system_ram_range().

arm64 uses SP_EL0 to save the current task_struct address. While running in EL0, SP_EL0 is clobbered by userspace. So if the upper bit is not 1 (not TTBR1), the current address is invalid. This patch checks the upper bit of SP_EL0, if the upper bit is 1, lx_current() of arm64 will return the derefrence of current task. Otherwise, lx_current() will tell users they are running in userspace(EL0). While arm64 is running in EL0, it is actually pointless to print current task as the memory of kernel space is not accessible in EL0.

Patch series "scripts/gdb: clarify the platforms supporting lx_current and add arm64 support", v2. lx_current depends on per_cpu current_task variable which exists on x86 only. so it actually works on x86 only. the 1st patch documents this clearly; the 2nd patch adds support for arm64. This patch (of 2): x86 is the only architecture which has per_cpu current_task: arch$ git grep current_task | grep -i per_cpu x86/include/asm/current.h:DECLARE_PER_CPU(struct task_struct *, current_task); x86/kernel/cpu/common.c:DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct task_struct *, current_task) ____cacheline_aligned = x86/kernel/cpu/common.c:EXPORT_PER_CPU_SYMBOL(current_task); x86/kernel/cpu/common.c:DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct task_struct *, current_task) = &init_task; x86/kernel/cpu/common.c:EXPORT_PER_CPU_SYMBOL(current_task); x86/kernel/smpboot.c: per_cpu(current_task, cpu) = idle; On other architectures, lx_current() will lead to a python exception: (gdb) p $lx_current().pid Python Exception <class 'gdb.error'> No symbol "current_task" in current context.: Error occurred in Python: No symbol "current_task" in current context. To avoid more people struggling and wasting time in other architectures, document it.

When I was implementing a latency analyzer tool by using task->delays and other things, I found an issue in delayacct. The issue is it should clear the target's flag instead of current's in delayacct_blkio_end(). When I git blame delayacct, I found there're some similar issues we have fixed in delayacct_blkio_end(). - Commit c96f5471 ("delayacct: Account blkio completion on the correct task") fixed the issue that it should account blkio completion on the target task instead of current. - Commit b512719f ("delayacct: fix crash in delayacct_blkio_end() after delayacct init failure") fixed the issue that it should check target task's delays instead of current task'. It seems that delayacct_blkio_{begin, end} are error prone. So I introduce a new paratmeter - the target task 'p' - to these helpers. After that change, the callsite will specifilly set the right task, which should make it less error prone.

Add a special-case when waiting on a pid (via waitpid, waitid, wait4, etc) to avoid doing an O(n) scan of children and tracees, and instead do an O(1) lookup. This improves performance when waiting on a pid from a thread group with many children and/or tracees. Time to fork and then call waitpid on the child, from a task that already has N children [1]: N | Before | After -----|---------|------ 1 | 74 us | 74 us 20 | 72 us | 75 us 100 | 83 us | 77 us 500 | 99 us | 74 us 1000 | 179 us | 75 us 5000 | 804 us | 79 us 8000 | 1268 us | 78 us [1]: https://lkml.org/lkml/2021/3/12/1567 This can make a substantial performance improvement for applications with a thread that has many children or tracees and frequently needs to wait on them. Tools that use ptrace to intercept syscalls for a large number of processes are likely to fall into this category. In particular this patch was developed while building a ptrace-based second generation of the Shadow emulator [2], for which it allows us to avoid quadratic scaling (without having to use a workaround that introduces a ~40% performance penalty) [3]. Other examples of tools that fall into this category which this patch may help include User Mode Linux [4] and DetTrace [5].

There is a regular need in the kernel to provide a way to declare having a dynamically sized set of trailing elements in a structure. Kernel code should always use “flexible array members”[1] for these cases. The older style of one-element or zero-length arrays should no longer be used[2]. Also, this helps with the ongoing efforts to enable -Warray-bounds by fixing the following warning: CC [M] fs/hpfs/dir.o fs/hpfs/dir.c: In function `hpfs_readdir': fs/hpfs/dir.c:163:41: warning: array subscript 1 is above array bounds of `u8[1]' {aka `unsigned char[1]'} [-Warray-bounds] 163 | || de ->name[0] != 1 || de->name[1] != 1)) | ~~~~~~~~^~~ [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flexible_array_member [2] https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/v5.10/process/deprecated.html#zero-length-and-one-element-arrays Link: https://github.com/KSPP/linux/issues/79 Link: https://github.com/KSPP/linux/issues/109 Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210326173510.GA81212@embeddedorSigned-off-by: Gustavo A.

Commit 339ddb53 ("fs/epoll: remove unnecessary wakeups of nested epoll") changed the userspace visible behavior of exclusive waiters blocked on a common epoll descriptor upon a single event becoming ready. Previously, all tasks doing epoll_wait would awake, and now only one is awoken, potentially causing missed wakeups on applications that rely on this behavior, such as Apache Qpid. While the aforementioned commit aims at having only a wakeup single path in ep_poll_callback (with the exceptions of epoll_ctl cases), we need to restore the wakeup in what was the old ep_scan_ready_list() such that the next thread can be awoken, in a cascading style, after the waker's corresponding ep_send_events().

Patch series "fs/epoll: restore user-visible behavior upon event ready". This series tries to address a change in user visible behavior, reported in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=208943. Epoll does not report an event to all the threads running epoll_wait() on the same epoll descriptor. Unsurprisingly, this was bisected back to 339ddb53 (fs/epoll: remove unnecessary wakeups of nested epoll), which has had various problems in the past, beyond only nested epoll usage. This patch (of 2): This incorporates the testcase originally reported in: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=208943 Which ensures an event is reported to all threads blocked on the same epoll descriptor, otherwise only a single thread will receive the wakeup once the event become ready.
