      sched/core: Fix preempt_schedule() interrupt return comment · a49b4f40
      Valentin Schneider authored
      preempt_schedule_irq() is the one that should be called on return from
      interrupt, clean up the comment to avoid any ambiguity.

      Commit:
      
         de53fd7a ("sched/fair: Fix low cpu usage with high throttling by removing expiration of cpu-local slices")
      
      introduced a few compilation warnings:
      
        kernel/sched/fair.c: In function '__refill_cfs_bandwidth_runtime':
        kernel/sched/fair.c:4365:6: warning: variable 'now' set but not used [-Wunused-but-set-variable]

        kernel/sched/fair.c:4992:6: warning: variable 'overrun' set but not used [-Wunused-but-set-variable]
      
      Also, __refill_cfs_bandwidth_runtime() does no longer update the
      expiration time, so fix the comments accordingly.

      sched/core: Fix migration to invalid CPU in __set_cpus_allowed_ptr() · 714e501e

      An oops can be triggered in the scheduler when running qemu on arm64:

      __set_cpus_allowed_ptr() will choose an active dest_cpu in affinity mask to
      migrage the process if process is not currently running on any one of the
      CPUs specified in affinity mask. __set_cpus_allowed_ptr() will choose an
      invalid dest_cpu (dest_cpu >= nr_cpu_ids, 1024 in my virtual machine) if
      CPUS in an affinity mask are deactived by cpu_down after cpumask_intersects
      check. cpumask_test_cpu() of dest_cpu afterwards is overflown and may pass if
      corresponding bit is coincidentally set. As a consequence, kernel will
      access an invalid rq address associate with the invalid CPU in
      migration_cpu_stop->__migrate_task->move_queued_task and the Oops occurs.
      
      The reproduce the crash:
      
        1) A process repeatedly binds itself to cpu0 and cpu1 in turn by calling
        sched_setaffinity.
      
        2) A shell script repeatedly does "echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online"
        and "echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online" in turn.
      
        3) Oops appears if the invalid CPU is set in memory after tested cpumask.

      sched/membarrier: Return -ENOMEM to userspace on memory allocation failure · c172e0a3
      Mathieu Desnoyers authored
      Remove the IPI fallback code from membarrier to deal with very
      infrequent cpumask memory allocation failure. Use GFP_KERNEL rather
      than GFP_NOWAIT, and relax the blocking guarantees for the expedited
      membarrier system call commands, allowing it to block if waiting for
      memory to be made available.
      
      In addition, now -ENOMEM can be returned to user-space if the cpumask
      memory allocation fails.

      sched/membarrier: Fix p->mm->membarrier_state racy load · 227a4aad
      Mathieu Desnoyers authored
      The membarrier_state field is located within the mm_struct, which
      is not guaranteed to exist when used from runqueue-lock-free iteration
      on runqueues by the membarrier system call.
      
      Copy the membarrier_state from the mm_struct into the scheduler runqueue
      when the scheduler switches between mm.
      
      When registering membarrier for mm, after setting the registration bit
      in the mm membarrier state, issue a synchronize_rcu() to ensure the
      scheduler observes the change. In order to take care of the case
      where a runqueue keeps executing the target mm without swapping to
      other mm, iterate over each runqueue and issue an IPI to copy the
      membarrier_state from the mm_struct into each runqueue which have the
      same mm which state has just been modified.
      
      Move the mm membarrier_state field closer to pgd in mm_struct to use
      a cache line already touched by the scheduler switch_mm.
      
      The membarrier_execve() (now membarrier_exec_mmap) hook now needs to
      clear the runqueue's membarrier state in addition to clear the mm
      membarrier state, so move its implementation into the scheduler
      membarrier code so it can access the runqueue structure.
      
      Add memory barrier in membarrier_exec_mmap() prior to clearing
      the membarrier state, ensuring memory accesses executed prior to exec
      are not reordered with the stores clearing the membarrier state.
      
      As suggested by Linus, move all membarrier.c RCU read-side locks outside
      of the for each cpu loops.

      sched/membarrier: Call sync_core only before usermode for same mm · 2840cf02
      Mathieu Desnoyers authored
      When the prev and next task's mm change, switch_mm() provides the core
      serializing guarantees before returning to usermode. The only case
      where an explicit core serialization is needed is when the scheduler
      keeps the same mm for prev and next.

      tasks, sched/core: RCUify the assignment of rq->curr · 5311a98f
      Eric W. Biederman authored
      The current task on the runqueue is currently read with rcu_dereference().
      
      To obtain ordinary RCU semantics for an rcu_dereference() of rq->curr it needs
      to be paired with rcu_assign_pointer() of rq->curr.  Which provides the
      memory barrier necessary to order assignments to the task_struct
      and the assignment to rq->curr.
      
      Unfortunately the assignment of rq->curr in __schedule is a hot path,
      and it has already been show that additional barriers in that code
      will reduce the performance of the scheduler.  So I will attempt to
      describe below why you can effectively have ordinary RCU semantics
      without any additional barriers.
      
      The assignment of rq->curr in init_idle is a slow path called once
      per cpu and that can use rcu_assign_pointer() without any concerns.
      
      As I write this there are effectively two users of rcu_dereference() on
      rq->curr.  There is the membarrier code in kernel/sched/membarrier.c
      that only looks at "->mm" after the rcu_dereference().  Then there is
      task_numa_compare() in kernel/sched/fair.c.  My best reading of the
      code shows that task_numa_compare only access: "->flags",
      "->cpus_ptr", "->numa_group", "->numa_faults[]",
      "->total_numa_faults", and "->se.cfs_rq".
      
      The code in __schedule() essentially does:
      	rq_lock(...);
      	smp_mb__after_spinlock();
      
      	next = pick_next_task(...);
      	rq->curr = next;
      
      	context_switch(prev, next);
      
      At the start of the function the rq_lock/smp_mb__after_spinlock
      pair provides a full memory barrier.  Further there is a full memory barrier
      in context_switch().
      
      This means that any task that has already run and modified itself (the
      common case) has already seen two memory barriers before __schedule()
      runs and begins executing.  A task that modifies itself then sees a
      third full memory barrier pair with the rq_lock();
      
      For a brand new task that is enqueued with wake_up_new_task() there
      are the memory barriers present from the taking and release the
      pi_lock and the rq_lock as the processes is enqueued as well as the
      full memory barrier at the start of __schedule() assuming __schedule()
      happens on the same cpu.
      
      This means that by the time we reach the assignment of rq->curr
      except for values on the task struct modified in pick_next_task
      the code has the same guarantees as if it used rcu_assign_pointer().
      
      Reading through all of the implementations of pick_next_task it
      appears pick_next_task is limited to modifying the task_struct fields
      "->se", "->rt", "->dl".  These fields are the sched_entity structures
      of the varies schedulers.
      
      Further "->se.cfs_rq" is only changed in cgroup attach/move operations
      initialized by userspace.
      
      Unless I have missed something this means that in practice that the
      users of "rcu_dereference(rq->curr)" get normal RCU semantics of
      rcu_dereference() for the fields the care about, despite the
      assignment of rq->curr in __schedule() ot using rcu_assign_pointer.

      excpet the rcu_dereference() is necessary so replace task_rcu_dereference()
      with rcu_dereference().
      
      Remove the code in rcuwait_wait_event() that checks to ensure the current
      task has not exited.  It is no longer necessary as it is guaranteed
      that any running task will experience a RCU grace period after it
      leaves the run queueue.
      
      Remove the comment in rcuwait_wake_up() as it is no longer relevant.

      tasks, sched/core: Ensure tasks are available for a grace period after leaving the runqueue · 0ff7b2cf
      Eric W. Biederman authored
      In the ordinary case today the RCU grace period for a task_struct is
      triggered when another process wait's for it's zombine and causes the
      kernel to call release_task().  As the waiting task has to receive a
      signal and then act upon it before this happens, typically this will
      occur after the original task as been removed from the runqueue.
      
      Unfortunaty in some cases such as self reaping tasks it can be shown
      that release_task() will be called starting the grace period for
      task_struct long before the task leaves the runqueue.
      
      Therefore use put_task_struct_rcu_user() in finish_task_switch() to
      guarantee that the there is a RCU lifetime after the task
      leaves the runqueue.
      
      Besides the change in the start of the RCU grace period for the
      task_struct this change may cause perf_event_delayed_put and
      trace_sched_process_free.  The function perf_event_delayed_put boils
      down to just a WARN_ON for cases that I assume never show happen.  So
      I don't see any problem with delaying it.
      
      The function trace_sched_process_free is a trace point and thus
      visible to user space.  Occassionally userspace has the strangest
      dependencies so this has a miniscule chance of causing a regression.
      This change only changes the timing of when the tracepoint is called.
      The change in timing arguably gives userspace a more accurate picture
      of what is going on.  So I don't expect there to be a regression.
      
      In the case where a task self reaps we are pretty much guaranteed that
      the RCU grace period is delayed.  So we should get quite a bit of
      coverage in of this worst case for the change in a normal threaded
      workload.  So I expect any issues to turn up quickly or not at all.
      
      I have lightly tested this change and everything appears to work
      fine.

      tasks: Add a count of task RCU users · 3fbd7ee2
      Eric W. Biederman authored
      Add a count of the number of RCU users (currently 1) of the task
      struct so that we can later add the scheduler case and get rid of the
      very subtle task_rcu_dereference(), and just use rcu_dereference().
      
      As suggested by Oleg have the count overlap rcu_head so that no
      additional space in task_struct is required.

      sched/fair: Remove unused cfs_rq_clock_task() function · dac9f027
      Qian Cai authored
      cfs_rq_clock_task() was first introduced and used in:
      
        f1b17280 ("sched: Maintain runnable averages across throttled periods")
      
      Over time its use has been graduately removed by the following commits:
      
        d31b1a66 ("sched/fair: Factorize PELT update")
        23127296 ("sched/fair: Update scale invariance of PELT")
      
      Today, there is no single user left, so it can be safely removed.
      
      Found via the -Wunused-function build warning.

       - Improve CPU isolation housekeeping CPU allocation NUMA locality.
      
       - Fix deadline scheduler bandwidth calculations and logic when cpusets
         rebuilds the topology, or when it gets deadline-throttled while it's
         being offlined.
      
       - Convert the cpuset_mutex to percpu_rwsem, to allow it to be used from
         setscheduler() system calls without creating global serialization.
         Add new synchronization between cpuset topology-changing events and
         the deadline acceptance tests in setscheduler(), which were broken
         before.
      
       - Rework the active_mm state machine to be less confusing and more
         optimal.
      
       - Rework (simplify) the pick_next_task() slowpath.
      
       - Improve load-balancing on AMD EPYC systems.
      
       - ... and misc cleanups, smaller fixes and improvements - please see
         the Git log for more details.

      Pull ARM DT updates from Arnd Bergmann:
       "This is another huge branch with close to 450 changessets related to
        devicetree files, roughly half of this for 32-bit and 64-bit
        respectively. There are lots of cleanups and additional hardware
        support for platforms we already support based on SoCs from Renesas,
        ST-Microelectronics, Intel/Altera, Rockchips, Allwinner, Broadcom and
        other manufacturers.
      
        A total of 6 new SoCs and 37 new boards gets added this time, one more
        SoC will come in a follow-up branch. Most of the new boards are for
        64-bit ARM SoCs, the others are typically for the 32-bit Cortex-A7.
      
        Going more into details for SoC platforms with new hardware support:
      
         - The Snapdragon 855 (SM8150) is Qualcomm's current high-end phone
           platform, usually paired with an external 5G modem. So far we only
           support the Qualcomm SM8150 MTP reference platform, but no actual
           products.
      
         - For the slightly older Qualcomm platforms, support for several
           interesting products is getting added: Three laptops based on
           Snapdragon 835/MSM8998 (Asus NovaGo, HP Envy X2 and Lenovo Miix
           630), one laptop based on Snapdragon 850/sdm850 (Lenovo Yoga C630)
           and several phones based on the older Snapdragon 410/MSM8916
           (Samsung A3 and A5, Longcheer L8150 aka Android One 2nd gen "seed"
           aka Wileyfox Swift).
      
         - Mediatek MT7629 is a new wireless network router chip, similar to
           the older MT7623. It gets added together with the reference board
           implementation.
      
         - Allwinner V3 is a repackaged version of the existing low-end V3s
           chip, and is used in the tiny Lichee Pi Zero plus, also added here.
           There is also a new TV set-top box based on Allwinner H6, the Tanix
           TX6, and the eMMC variant of the Olimex A64-Olinuxino development
           board.
      
         - NXP i.MX8M Nano is a new member of the ever-expanding i.MX SoC
           family, similar to the i.MX8M Mini. As usual, there is a large
           number of new boards for i.MX SoCs: Einfochips i.MX8QXP AI_ML,
           SolidRun Hummingboard Pulse baseboard and System-on-Module,
           Boundary Devices i.MX8MQ Nitrogen8M, and TechNexion
           PICO-PI-IMX8M-DEV for the 64-bit i.MX8 line. For 32-bit, we get the
           Kontron i.MX6UL N6310 SoM with two baseboards, the PHYTEC
           phyBOARD-Segin SoM with three baseboards, and the Zodiac Inflight
           Innovations i.MX7 RMU2 board.
      
         - In a different NXP product line, the Layerscape LS1046A "Freeway"
           reference board gets added.
      
         - Amlogic SM1 (S905X3) and G12B (S922X, A311D) are updated chips from
           their set-top-box line and smart speaker with newer CPU and GPU
           cores compared to their predecessors. Both are now also supported
           by the Khadas VIM3 development board series, and the dts files for
           that get reorganized a bit to better deal with all variants.
           Another board based on SM1 that gets added is the SEI Robotics
           SEI610.
      
         - There are a handful of new x86 and Power9 server boards using
           Aspeed BMC chips that are gaining support for running Linux on the
           BMC through the OpenBMC project: Facebook
           Minipack/Wedge100/Wedge40, Lenovo Hr855xg2, and Mihawk. Notably
           these are still new machines using SoCs based on the ARM9 and ARM11
           CPU cores, as support for the new Cortex-A7 based AST2600 is still
           ramping up.
      
         - There are three new end-user products using 32-bit Rockchips SoCs:
           Mecer Xtreme Mini S6 is an Android "mini PC" box based on the
           low-end RK3229 chip, while the two AOpen products Chromebox Mini
           (Fievel) and Chromebase Mini (Tiger) run ChromeOS and are meant for
           commercial settings(digital signage, PoS, ...).
      
         - One more single-board computer based on the popular 64-bit RK3399
           is added: the Leez RK3399 P710"

      Pull ARM SoC platform updates from Arnd Bergmann:
       "The main change this time around is a cleanup of some of the oldest
        platforms based on the XScale and ARM9 CPU cores, which are between 10
        and 20 years old.
      
        The Kendin/Micrel/Microchip KS8695, Winbond/Nuvoton W90x900 and Intel
        IOP33x/IOP13xx platforms are removed after we determined that nobody
        is using them any more.
      
        The TI Davinci and NXP LPC32xx platforms on the other hand are still
        in active use and are converted to the ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM build,
        meaning that we can compile a kernel that works on these along with
        most other ARMv5 platforms. Changes toward that goal are also merged
        for IOP32x, but additional work is needed to complete this. Patches
        for the remaining ARMv5 platforms have started but need more work and
        some testing.
      
        Support for the new ASpeed AST2600 gets added, this is based on the
        Cortex-A7 ARMv7 core, and is a newer version of the existing ARMv5 and
        ARMv6 chips in the same family.
      
        Other changes include a cleanup of the ST-Ericsson ux500 platform and
        the move of the TI Davinci platform to a new clocksource driver"
      
      [ The changes had marked INTEL_IOP_ADMA and USB_LPC32XX as being
        buildable on other platforms through COMPILE_TEST, but that causes new
        warnings that I most definitely do not want to see during the merge
        window as that could hide other issues.
      
        So the COMPILE_TEST option got disabled for them again   - Linus ]
