Current RCU hard relies on smp_call_function() callbacks running from interrupt context. A pending optimization is going to break that, it will allow idle CPUs to run the callbacks from the idle loop. This avoids raising the IPI on the requesting CPU and avoids handling an exception on the receiving CPU. Change rcu_is_cpu_rrupt_from_idle() to also accept task context, provided it is the idle task.

There will likely be exception handlers that can sleep, which rules out the usual approach of invoking rcu_nmi_enter() on entry and also rcu_nmi_exit() on all exit paths. However, the alternative approach of just not calling anything can prevent RCU from coaxing quiescent states from nohz_full CPUs that are looping in the kernel: RCU must instead IPI them explicitly. It would be better to enable the scheduler tick on such CPUs to interact with RCU in a lighter-weight manner, and this enabling is one of the things that rcu_nmi_enter() currently does. What is needed is something that helps RCU coax quiescent states while not preventing subsequent sleeps. This commit therefore splits out the nohz_full scheduler-tick enabling from the rest of the rcu_nmi_enter() logic into a new function named rcu_irq_enter_check_tick(). [ tglx: Renamed the function and made it a nop when context tracking is off ] [ mingo: Fixed a CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL assumption, harmonized and fixed all the comment blocks and cleaned up rcu_nmi_enter()/exit() definitions. ] Suggested-by: Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

Same as rcu_is_watching() but without the preempt_disable/enable() pair inside the function. It is merked noinstr so it ends up in the non-instrumentable text section. This is useful for non-preemptible code especially in the low level entry section. Using rcu_is_watching() there results in a call to the preempt_schedule_notrace() thunk which triggers noinstr section warnings in objtool.

Interrupts and exceptions invoke rcu_irq_enter() on entry and need to invoke rcu_irq_exit() before they either return to the interrupted code or invoke the scheduler due to preemption. The general assumption is that RCU idle code has to have preemption disabled so that a return from interrupt cannot schedule. So the return from interrupt code invokes rcu_irq_exit() and preempt_schedule_irq(). If there is any imbalance in the rcu_irq/nmi* invocations or RCU idle code had preemption enabled then this goes unnoticed until the CPU goes idle or some other RCU check is executed. Provide rcu_irq_exit_preempt() which can be invoked from the interrupt/exception return code in case that preemption is enabled. It invokes rcu_irq_exit() and contains a few sanity checks in case that CONFIG_PROVE_RCU is enabled to catch such issues directly.

The rcu_nmi_enter_common() and rcu_nmi_exit_common() functions take an "irq" parameter that indicates whether these functions have been invoked from an irq handler (irq==true) or an NMI handler (irq==false). However, recent changes have applied notrace to a few critical functions such that rcu_nmi_enter_common() and rcu_nmi_exit_common() many now rely on in_nmi(). Note that in_nmi() works no differently than before, but rather that tracing is now prohibited in code regions where in_nmi() would incorrectly report NMI state. Therefore remove the "irq" parameter and inline rcu_nmi_enter_common() and rcu_nmi_exit_common() into rcu_nmi_enter() and rcu_nmi_exit(), respectively. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

A few exceptions (like #DB and #BP) can happen at any location in the code, this then means that tracers should treat events from these exceptions as NMI-like. The interrupted context could be holding locks with interrupts disabled for instance. Similarly, #MC is an actual NMI-like exception. All of them use ist_enter() which only concerns itself with RCU, but does not do any of the other setup that NMIs need. This means things like: printk() raw_spin_lock_irq(&logbuf_lock); <#DB/#BP/#MC> printk() raw_spin_lock_irq(&logbuf_lock); are entirely possible (well, not really since printk tries hard to play nice, but the concept stands). So replace ist_enter() with nmi_enter(). Also observe that any nmi_enter() caller must be both notrace and NOKPROBE, or in the noinstr text section.

If a tracer is invoked before in_nmi() becomes true, the tracer can no longer detect it is called from NMI context and behave correctly. Therefore change nmi_{enter,exit}() to use __preempt_count_{add,sub}() as the normal preempt_count_{add,sub}() have a (desired) function trace entry. This fixes a potential issue with the current code; when the function-tracer has stack-tracing enabled __trace_stack() will malfunction when it hits the preempt_count_add() function entry from NMI context.

When using nmi_enter() recursively, arch_nmi_enter() must also be recursion safe. In particular, it must be ensured that HCR_TGE is always set while in NMI context when in HYP mode, and be restored to it's former state when done. The current code fails this when interleaved wrong. Notably it overwrites the original hcr state on nesting. Introduce a nesting counter to make sure to store the original value.

Get the noinstr section and annotation markers to base the RCU parts on.

Thomas Gleixner authored
Some code pathes, especially the low level entry code, must be protected against instrumentation for various reasons: - Low level entry code can be a fragile beast, especially on x86. - With NO_HZ_FULL RCU state needs to be established before using it. Having a dedicated section for such code allows to validate with tooling that no unsafe functions are invoked. Add the .noinstr.text section and the noinstr attribute to mark functions. noinstr implies notrace. Kprobes will gain a section check later. Provide also a set of markers: instrumentation_begin()/end() These are used to mark code inside a noinstr function which calls into regular instrumentable text section as safe. The instrumentation markers are only active when CONFIG_DEBUG_ENTRY is enabled as the end marker emits a NOP to prevent the compiler from merging the annotation points. This means the objtool verification requires a kernel compiled with this option.

Pull iommu fixes from Joerg Roedel: - Race condition fixes for the AMD IOMMU driver. These are five patches fixing two race conditions around increase_address_space(). The first race condition was around the non-atomic update of the domain page-table root pointer and the variable containing the page-table depth (called mode). This is fixed now be merging page-table root and mode into one 64-bit field which is read/written atomically. The second race condition was around updating the page-table root pointer and making it public before the hardware caches were flushed. This could cause addresses to be mapped and returned to drivers which are not reachable by IOMMU hardware yet, causing IO page-faults. This is fixed too by adding the necessary flushes before a new page-table root is published. Related to the race condition fixes these patches also add a missing domain_flush_complete() barrier to update_domain() and a fix to bail out of the loop which tries to increase the address space when the call to increase_address_space() fails. Qian was able to trigger the race conditions under high load and memory pressure within a few days of testing.

It seems that for whatever reason, gcc-10 ends up not inlining a couple of functions that used to be inlined before. Even if they only have one single callsite - it looks like gcc may have decided that the code was unlikely, and not worth inlining. The code generation difference is harmless, but caused a few new section mismatch errors, since the (now no longer inlined) function wasn't in the __init section, but called other init functions: Section mismatch in reference from the function kexec_free_initrd() to the function .init.text:free_initrd_mem() Section mismatch in reference from the function tpm2_calc_event_log_size() to the function .init.text:early_memremap() Section mismatch in reference from the function tpm2_calc_event_log_size() to the function .init.text:early_memunmap() So add the appropriate __init annotation to make modpost not complain. In both cases there were trivially just a single callsite from another __init function. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

gcc-10 has started warning about conflicting types for a few new built-in functions, particularly 'free()'. This results in warnings like: crypto/xts.c:325:13: warning: conflicting types for built-in function ‘free’; expected ‘void(void *)’ [-Wbuiltin-declaration-mismatch] because the crypto layer had its local freeing functions called 'free()'. Gcc-10 is in the wrong here, since that function is marked 'static', and thus there is no chance of confusion with any standard library function namespace. But the simplest thing to do is to just use a different name here, and avoid this gcc mis-feature. [ Side note: gcc knowing about 'free()' is in itself not the mis-feature: the semantics of 'free()' are special enough that a compiler can validly do special things when seeing it. So the mis-feature here is that gcc thinks that 'free()' is some restricted name, and you can't shadow it as a local static function. Making the special 'free()' semantics be a function attribute rather than tied to the name would be the much better model ] Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

gcc-10 now warns about passing aliasing pointers to functions that take restricted pointers. That's actually a great warning, and if we ever start using 'restrict' in the kernel, it might be quite useful. But right now we don't, and it turns out that the only thing this warns about is an idiom where we have declared a few functions to be "printf-like" (which seems to make gcc pick up the restricted pointer thing), and then we print to the same buffer that we also use as an input. And people do that as an odd concatenation pattern, with code like this: #define sysfs_show_gen_prop(buffer, fmt, ...) \ snprintf(buffer, PAGE_SIZE, "%s"fmt, buffer, __VA_ARGS__) where we have 'buffer' as both the destination of the final result, and as the initial argument. Yes, it's a bit questionable. And outside of the kernel, people do have standard declarations like int snprintf( char *restrict buffer, size_t bufsz, const char *restrict format, ... ); where that output buffer is marked as a restrict pointer that cannot alias with any other arguments. But in the context of the kernel, that 'use snprintf() to concatenate to the end result' does work, and the pattern shows up in multiple places. And we have not marked our own version of snprintf() as taking restrict pointers, so the warning is incorrect for now, and gcc picks it up on its own. If we do start using 'restrict' in the kernel (and it might be a good idea if people find places where it matters), we'll need to figure out how to avoid this issue for snprintf and friends. But in the meantime, this warning is not useful. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

When the controller is reconnecting, the host fails I/O and admin commands as the host cannot reach the controller. ns scanning may revalidate namespaces during that period and it is wrong to remove namespaces due to these failures as we may hang (see 205da243). One command that may fail is nvme_identify_ns_descs. Since we return success due to having ns identify descriptor list optional, we continue to compare ns identifiers in nvme_revalidate_disk, obviously fail and return -ENODEV to nvme_validate_ns, which will remove the namespace.

This devalues space savings compared to original code :-\ $ ./scripts/bloat-o-meter ../vmlinux-000 ../obj/vmlinux add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 0/4 up/down: 0/-32 (-32) Function old new delta nvme_poll_irqdisable 464 456 -8 nvme_poll 455 447 -8 nvme_irq 388 380 -8 nvme_dev_disable 955 947 -8 But the code is minimal now: one read for head, one read for q_depth, one increment, one comparison, single instruction phase bit update and one write for new head.

This is another fine warning, related to the 'zero-length-bounds' one, but hitting the same historical code in the kernel. Because C didn't historically support flexible array members, we have code that instead uses a one-sized array, the same way we have cases of zero-sized arrays. The one-sized arrays come from either not wanting to use the gcc zero-sized array extension, or from a slight convenience-feature, where particularly for strings, the size of the structure now includes the allocation for the final NUL character. So with a "char name[1];" at the end of a structure, you can do things like v = my_malloc(sizeof(struct vendor) + strlen(name)); and avoid the "+1" for the terminator. Yes, the modern way to do that is with a flexible array, and using 'offsetof()' instead of 'sizeof()', and adding the "+1" by hand. That also technically gets the size "more correct" in that it avoids any alignment (and thus padding) issues, but this is another long-term cleanup thing that will not happen for 5.7. So disable the warning for now, even though it's potentially quite useful. Having a slew of warnings that then hide more urgent new issues is not an improvement.

This is a fine warning, but we still have a number of zero-length arrays in the kernel that come from the traditional gcc extension. Yes, they are getting converted to flexible arrays, but in the meantime the gcc-10 warning about zero-length bounds is very verbose, and is hiding other issues. I missed one actual build failure because it was hidden among hundreds of lines of warning. Thankfully I caught it on the second go before pushing things out, but it convinced me that I really need to disable the new warnings for now. We'll hopefully be all done with our conversion to flexible arrays in the not too distant future, and we can then re-enable this warning. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

We have some rather random rules about when we accept the "maybe-initialized" warnings, and when we don't. For example, we consider it unreliable for gcc versions < 4.9, but also if -O3 is enabled, or if optimizing for size. And then various kernel config options disabled it, because they know that they trigger that warning by confusing gcc sufficiently (ie PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES). And now gcc-10 seems to be introducing a lot of those warnings too, so it falls under the same heading as 4.9 did. At the same time, we have a very straightforward way to _enable_ that warning when wanted: use "W=2" to enable more warnings. So stop playing these ad-hoc games, and just disable that warning by default, with the known and straight-forward "if you want to work on the extra compiler warnings, use W=123". Would it be great to have code that is always so obvious that it never confuses the compiler whether a variable is used initialized or not? Yes, it would. In a perfect world, the compilers would be smarter, and our source code would be simpler. That's currently not the world we live in, though.
