      sched/core: Convert task_struct.usage to refcount_t · ec1d2819
      Elena Reshetova authored
      atomic_t variables are currently used to implement reference
      counters with the following properties:
      
       - counter is initialized to 1 using atomic_set()
       - a resource is freed upon counter reaching zero
       - once counter reaches zero, its further
         increments aren't allowed
       - counter schema uses basic atomic operations
         (set, inc, inc_not_zero, dec_and_test, etc.)
      
      Such atomic variables should be converted to a newly provided
      refcount_t type and API that prevents accidental counter overflows
      and underflows. This is important since overflows and underflows
      can lead to use-after-free situation and be exploitable.
      
      The variable task_struct.usage is used as pure reference counter.
      Convert it to refcount_t and fix up the operations.
      
      ** Important note for maintainers:
      
      Some functions from refcount_t API defined in lib/refcount.c
      have different memory ordering guarantees than their atomic
      counterparts.
      
      The full comparison can be seen in
      https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/11/15/57 and it is hopefully soon
      in state to be merged to the documentation tree.
      
      Normally the differences should not matter since refcount_t provides
      enough guarantees to satisfy the refcounting use cases, but in
      some rare cases it might matter.
      
      Please double check that you don't have some undocumented
      memory guarantees for this variable usage.
      
      For the task_struct.usage it might make a difference
      in following places:
      
       - put_task_struct(): decrement in refcount_dec_and_test() only
         provides RELEASE ordering and control dependency on success
         vs. fully ordered atomic counterpart

      sched/fair: Fix unnecessary increase of balance interval · 46a745d9
      Vincent Guittot authored
      In case of active balancing, we increase the balance interval to cover
      pinned tasks cases not covered by all_pinned logic. Neverthless, the
      active migration triggered by asym packing should be treated as the normal
      unbalanced case and reset the interval to default value, otherwise active
      migration for asym_packing can be easily delayed for hundreds of ms
      because of this pinned task detection mechanism.
      
      The same happens to other conditions tested in need_active_balance() like
      misfit task and when the capacity of src_cpu is reduced compared to
      dst_cpu (see comments in need_active_balance() for details).

      sched/fair: Fix rounding bug for asym packing · 4ad4e481
      Vincent Guittot authored
      When check_asym_packing() is triggered, the imbalance is set to:
      
        busiest_stat.avg_load * busiest_stat.group_capacity / SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE
      
      But busiest_stat.avg_load equals:
      
        sgs->group_load * SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE / sgs->group_capacity
      
      These divisions can generate a rounding that will make imbalance
      slightly lower than the weighted load of the cfs_rq.  But this is
      enough to skip the rq in find_busiest_queue() and prevents asym
      migration from happening.
      
      Directly set imbalance to busiest's sgs->group_load to remove the
      rounding.

      sched/fair: Trigger asym_packing during idle load balance · a062d164
      Vincent Guittot authored
      Newly idle load balancing is not always triggered when a CPU becomes idle.
      This prevents the scheduler from getting a chance to migrate the task
      for asym packing.
      
      Enable active migration during idle load balance too.

      sched/fair: Robustify CFS-bandwidth timer locking · c0ad4aa4
      Peter Zijlstra authored
      Traditionally hrtimer callbacks were run with IRQs disabled, but with
      the introduction of HRTIMER_MODE_SOFT it is possible they run from
      SoftIRQ context, which does _NOT_ have IRQs disabled.
      
      Allow for the CFS bandwidth timers (period_timer and slack_timer) to
      be ran from SoftIRQ context; this entails removing the assumption that
      IRQs are already disabled from the locking.
      
      While mainline doesn't strictly need this, -RT forces all timers not
      explicitly marked with MODE_HARD into MODE_SOFT and trips over this.
      And marking these timers as MODE_HARD doesn't make sense as they're
      not required for RT operation and can potentially be quite expensive.

      All that fancy new Energy-Aware scheduling foo is hidden behind a

      However, when you lack all the prerequisites it doesn't make any sense
      to pretend we'll ever actually run this, so provide a little more clue
      to the compiler so it can more agressively delete the code.

      sched/topology: Introduce a sysctl for Energy Aware Scheduling · 8d5d0cfb
      Quentin Perret authored
      In its current state, Energy Aware Scheduling (EAS) starts automatically
      on asymmetric platforms having an Energy Model (EM). However, there are
      users who want to have an EM (for thermal management for example), but
      don't want EAS with it.
      
      In order to let users disable EAS explicitly, introduce a new sysctl
      called 'sched_energy_aware'. It is enabled by default so that EAS can
      start automatically on platforms where it makes sense. Flipping it to 0
      rebuilds the scheduling domains and disables EAS.

      MAINTAINERS, sched: Drop PREEMPTIBLE KERNEL section entry · 62a8ddc9
      Lukas Bulwahn authored
      The PREEMPTIBLE KERNEL section entry seems quite outdated:
      
      Robert Love is not actively maintaining the file anymore, nor a recorded
      contributor to the files in the PREEMPTIBLE KERNEL section for the last
      few years.
      
      The mailing list kpreempt-tech@lists.sourceforge.net does not exist
      anymore; the website just points to some very old patches for v2.4/v2.5.
      
      So, let's delete the PREEMPTIBLE KERNEL section entry and clean this up:
      
      - Documentation/preempt-locking.txt is not modified much anyway, and the
        changes in that file are generally maintained by Jonathan Corbet. So,
        we do not need to explicitly mention Documentation/preempt-locking.txt
        in MAINTAINERS.
      
      - include/linux/preempt.h is maintained by Peter and Ingo, so we simply
        add that file to the SCHEDULER section entry.
      
      I got directed to this issue, as I could not subscribe to the outdated
      mailing list address and decided to investigate and then cleaned this up.

      pstore/ram: Avoid allocation and leak of platform data · 5631e857
      Kees Cook authored
      Yue Hu noticed that when parsing device tree the allocated platform data
      was never freed. Since it's not used beyond the function scope, this
      switches to using a stack variable instead.

      gcc-plugins: arm_ssp_per_task_plugin: fix for GCC 9+ · 2c88c742
      Ard Biesheuvel authored
      GCC 9 reworks the way the references to the stack canary are
      emitted, to prevent the value from being spilled to the stack
      before the final comparison in the epilogue, defeating the
      purpose, given that the spill slot is under control of the
      attacker that we are protecting ourselves from.
      
      Since our canary value address is obtained without accessing
      memory (as opposed to pre-v7 code that will obtain it from a
      literal pool), it is unlikely (although not guaranteed) that
      the compiler will spill the canary value in the same way, so
      let's just disable this improvement when building with GCC9+.

      fix int_sqrt64() for very large numbers · fbfaf851
      Florian La Roche authored
      If an input number x for int_sqrt64() has the highest bit set, then
      fls64(x) is 64.  (1UL << 64) is an overflow and breaks the algorithm.
      
      Subtracting 1 is a better guess for the initial value of m anyway and
      that's what also done in int_sqrt() implicitly [*].
      
      [*] Note how int_sqrt() uses __fls() with two underscores, which already
          returns the proper raw bit number.
      
          In contrast, int_sqrt64() used fls64(), and that returns bit numbers
          illogically starting at 1, because of error handling for the "no
          bits set" case. Will points out that he bug probably is due to a
          copy-and-paste error from the regular int_sqrt() case.

      x86: uaccess: Inhibit speculation past access_ok() in user_access_begin() · 6e693b3f
      Will Deacon authored
      Commit 594cc251 ("make 'user_access_begin()' do 'access_ok()'")
      makes the access_ok() check part of the user_access_begin() preceding a
      series of 'unsafe' accesses.  This has the desirable effect of ensuring
      that all 'unsafe' accesses have been range-checked, without having to
      pick through all of the callsites to verify whether the appropriate
      checking has been made.
      
      However, the consolidated range check does not inhibit speculation, so
      it is still up to the caller to ensure that they are not susceptible to
      any speculative side-channel attacks for user addresses that ultimately
      fail the access_ok() check.
      
      This is an oversight, so use __uaccess_begin_nospec() to ensure that
      speculation is inhibited until the access_ok() check has passed.

      The generated test constructs a packet with mac header, network
      header, skb->data pointing to network header and skb->len 0.
      
      Redirecting to a sit0 through __bpf_redirect_no_mac pulls the
      mac length, even though skb->data already is at skb->network_header.
      bpf_prog_test_run_skb has already pulled it as LWT_XMIT !is_l2.
      
      Update the offset calculation to pull only if skb->data differs
      from skb->network_header, which is not true in this case.
      
      The test itself can be run only from commit 1cf1cae9 ("bpf:
      introduce BPF_PROG_TEST_RUN command"), but the same type of packets
      with skb at network header could already be built from lwt xmit hooks,
      so this fix is more relevant to that commit.
      
      Also set the mac header on redirect from LWT_XMIT, as even after this
      change to __bpf_redirect_no_mac that field is expected to be set, but
      is not yet in ip_finish_output2.

      net: phy: phy driver features are mandatory · 3e64cf7a
      Camelia Groza authored
      Since phy driver features became a link_mode bitmap, phy drivers that
      don't have a list of features configured will cause the kernel to crash
      when probed.
      
      Prevent the phy driver from registering if the features field is missing.

      isdn: avm: Fix string plus integer warning from Clang · 7afa81c5
      Nathan Chancellor authored
      A recent commit in Clang expanded the -Wstring-plus-int warning, showing
      some odd behavior in this file.
      
      drivers/isdn/hardware/avm/b1.c:426:30: warning: adding 'int' to a string does not append to the string [-Wstring-plus-int]
                      cinfo->version[j] = "\0\0" + 1;
                                          ~~~~~~~^~~
      drivers/isdn/hardware/avm/b1.c:426:30: note: use array indexing to silence this warning
                      cinfo->version[j] = "\0\0" + 1;
                                                 ^
                                          &      [  ]
      1 warning generated.
      
      This is equivalent to just "\0". Nick pointed out that it is smarter to
      use "" instead of "\0" because "" is used elsewhere in the kernel and
      can be deduplicated at the linking stage.
