Although we can rely on cpuacct to present the CPU usage of task groups, it is hard to tell how intense the competition is between these groups on CPU resources. Monitoring the wait time or sched_debug of each process could be very expensive, and there is no good way to accurately represent the conflict with these info, we need the wait time on group dimension. Thus we introduce group's wait_sum to represent the resource conflict between task groups, which is simply the sum of the wait time of the group's cfs_rq. The 'cpu.stat' is modified to show the statistic, like: nr_periods 0 nr_throttled 0 throttled_time 0 wait_sum 2035098795584 Now we can monitor the changes of wait_sum to tell how much a a task group is suffering in the fight of CPU resources. For example: (wait_sum - last_wait_sum) * 100 / (nr_cpu * period_ns) == X% means the task group paid X percentage of period on waiting for the CPU.

Reuse cpu_util_irq() that has been defined for schedutil and set irq util to 0 when !CONFIG_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING. But the compiler is not able to optimize the sequence (at least with aarch64 GCC 7.2.1): free *= (max - irq); free /= max; when irq is fixed to 0 Add a new inline function scale_irq_capacity() that will scale utilization when irq is accounted. Reuse this funciton in schedutil which applies similar formula.

NO_RT_RUNTIME_SHARE feature is used to prevent a CPU borrow enough runtime with a spin-rt-task. However, if RT_RUNTIME_SHARE feature is enabled and rt_rq has borrowd enough rt_runtime at the beginning, rt_runtime can't be restored to its initial bandwidth rt_runtime after we disable RT_RUNTIME_SHARE. E.g. on my PC with 4 cores, procedure to reproduce: 1) Make sure RT_RUNTIME_SHARE is enabled cat /sys/kernel/debug/sched_features GENTLE_FAIR_SLEEPERS START_DEBIT NO_NEXT_BUDDY LAST_BUDDY CACHE_HOT_BUDDY WAKEUP_PREEMPTION NO_HRTICK NO_DOUBLE_TICK LB_BIAS NONTASK_CAPACITY TTWU_QUEUE NO_SIS_AVG_CPU SIS_PROP NO_WARN_DOUBLE_CLOCK RT_PUSH_IPI RT_RUNTIME_SHARE NO_LB_MIN ATTACH_AGE_LOAD WA_IDLE WA_WEIGHT WA_BIAS 2) Start a spin-rt-task ./loop_rr & 3) set affinity to the last cpu taskset -p 8 $pid_of_loop_rr 4) Observe that last cpu have borrowed enough runtime. cat /proc/sched_debug | grep rt_runtime .rt_runtime : 950.000000 .rt_runtime : 900.000000 .rt_runtime : 950.000000 .rt_runtime : 1000.000000 5) Disable RT_RUNTIME_SHARE echo NO_RT_RUNTIME_SHARE > /sys/kernel/debug/sched_features 6) Observe that rt_runtime can not been restored cat /proc/sched_debug | grep rt_runtime .rt_runtime : 950.000000 .rt_runtime : 900.000000 .rt_runtime : 950.000000 .rt_runtime : 1000.000000 This patch help to restore rt_runtime after we disable RT_RUNTIME_SHARE.

This commit: 9fb8d5dc ("stop_machine, Disable preemption when waking two stopper threads") does not fully address the race condition that can occur as follows: On one CPU, call it CPU 3, thread 1 invokes cpu_stop_queue_two_works(2, 3,...), and the execution is such that thread 1 queues the works for migration/2 and migration/3, and is preempted after releasing the locks for migration/2 and migration/3, but before waking the threads. Then, On CPU 2, a kworker, call it thread 2, is running, and it invokes cpu_stop_queue_two_works(1, 2,...), such that thread 2 queues the works for migration/1 and migration/2. Meanwhile, on CPU 3, thread 1 resumes execution, and wakes migration/2 and migration/3. This means that when CPU 2 releases the locks for migration/1 and migration/2, but before it wakes those threads, it can be preempted by migration/2. If thread 2 is preempted by migration/2, then migration/2 will execute the first work item successfully, since migration/3 was woken up by CPU 3, but when it goes to execute the second work item, it disables preemption, calls multi_cpu_stop(), and thus, CPU 2 will wait forever for migration/1, which should have been woken up by thread 2. However migration/1 cannot be woken up by thread 2, since it is a kworker, so it is affine to CPU 2, but CPU 2 is running migration/2 with preemption disabled, so thread 2 will never run. Disable preemption after queueing works for stopper threads to ensure that the operation of queueing the works and waking the stopper threads is atomic.

The 'group' variable in sched_domain_debug_one() is not checked when firstly used in cpumask_test_cpu(cpu, sched_group_span(group)), but it might be NULL (it is checked later in the following while loop) and may cause NULL pointer dereference. We need to check it before using to avoid NULL dereference.

Linus Torvalds authored
The vm_area_struct is one of the most fundamental memory management objects, but the management of it is entirely open-coded evertwhere, ranging from allocation and freeing (using kmem_cache_[z]alloc and kmem_cache_free) to initializing all the fields. We want to unify this in order to end up having some unified initialization of the vmas, and the first step to this is to at least have basic allocation functions. Right now those functions are literally just wrappers around the kmem_cache_*() calls. This is a purely mechanical conversion: # new vma: kmem_cache_zalloc(vm_area_cachep, GFP_KERNEL) -> vm_area_alloc() # copy old vma kmem_cache_alloc(vm_area_cachep, GFP_KERNEL) -> vm_area_dup(old) # free vma kmem_cache_free(vm_area_cachep, vma) -> vm_area_free(vma) to the point where the old vma passed in to the vm_area_dup() function isn't even used yet (because I've left all the old manual initialization alone).

The crashing reason is that mem_cgroup_iter() uses the memcg object whose pointer is stored in iter->position, which has been freed before and filled with POISON_FREE(0x6b). And the root cause of the use-after-free issue is that invalidate_reclaim_iterators() fails to reset the value of iter->position to NULL when the css of the memcg is released in non- hierarchical mode.

__split_huge_pmd_locked() must check if the cleared huge pmd was dirty, and propagate that to PageDirty: otherwise, data may be lost when a huge tmpfs page is modified then split then reclaimed. How has this taken so long to be noticed? Because there was no problem when the huge page is written by a write system call (shmem_write_end() calls set_page_dirty()), nor when the page is allocated for a write fault (fault_dirty_shared_page() calls set_page_dirty()); but when allocated for a read fault (which MAP_POPULATE simulates), no set_page_dirty().

In parse_options(), if match_strdup() failed, parse_options() leaves opts->iocharset in unexpected state (i.e. still pointing the freed string). And this can be the cause of double free. To fix, this initialize opts->iocharset always when freeing.

Commit 26f09e9b ("mm/memblock: add memblock memory allocation apis") introduced two new function definitions: memblock_virt_alloc_try_nid_nopanic() memblock_virt_alloc_try_nid() and commit ea1f5f37 ("mm: define memblock_virt_alloc_try_nid_raw") introduced the following function definition: memblock_virt_alloc_try_nid_raw() This commit adds an include of header file <linux/bootmem.h> to provide the missing function prototypes. This silences the following gcc warning (W=1): mm/memblock.c:1334:15: warning: no previous prototype for `memblock_virt_alloc_try_nid_raw' [-Wmissing-prototypes] mm/memblock.c:1371:15: warning: no previous prototype for `memblock_virt_alloc_try_nid_nopanic' [-Wmissing-prototypes] mm/memblock.c:1407:15: warning: no previous prototype for `memblock_virt_alloc_try_nid' [-Wmissing-prototypes] Also adds #ifdef blockers to prevent compilation failure on mips/ia64 where CONFIG_NO_BOOTMEM=n as could be seen in commit commit 6cc22dc0 ("revert "mm/memblock: add missing include <linux/bootmem.h>""). Because Makefile already does: obj-$(CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK) += memblock.o The #ifdef has been simplified from: #if defined(CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK) && defined(CONFIG_NO_BOOTMEM) to simply: #if defined(CONFIG_NO_BOOTMEM) Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180626184422.24974-1-malat@debian.orgSigned-off-by: Mathieu Malaterre <malat@debian.org> Suggested-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com> Suggested-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@kernel.org> Acked-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Fix return code check for "max brightness" ACPI call. The Dell laptop ACPI video brightness control is not present on dell laptops anymore, but was present in older kernel versions. The code that checks the return value is incorrect since the SMM refactoring. The old code was: if (buffer->output[0] == 0) Which was changed to: ret = dell_send_request(...) if (ret) However, dell_send_request() will return 0 if buffer->output[0] == 0, so we must change the check to: if (ret == 0) This issue was found on a Dell M4800 laptop, and the fix tested on it as well.
