Pull x86 irq entry updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"The irq stack switching was moved out of the ASM entry code in course
of the entry code consolidation. It ended up being suboptimal in
various ways.
This reworks the X86 irq stack handling:
- Make the stack switching inline so the stackpointer manipulation is
not longer at an easy to find place.
- Get rid of the unnecessary indirect call.
- Avoid the double stack switching in interrupt return and reuse the
interrupt stack for softirq handling.
- A objtool fix for CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER=y builds where it got
confused about the stack pointer manipulation"

Pull clang LTO updates from Kees Cook:
"Clang Link Time Optimization.
This is built on the work done preparing for LTO by arm64 folks,
tracing folks, etc. This includes the core changes as well as the
remaining pieces for arm64 (LTO has been the default build method on
Android for about 3 years now, as it is the prerequisite for the
Control Flow Integrity protections).
While x86 LTO enablement is done, it depends on some pending objtool
clean-ups. It's possible that I'll send a "part 2" pull request for
LTO that includes x86 support.
For merge log posterity, and as detailed in commit dc5723b02e52
("kbuild: add support for Clang LTO"), here is the lt;dr to do an LTO
build:
make LLVM=1 LLVM_IAS=1 defconfig
scripts/config -e LTO_CLANG_THIN
make LLVM=1 LLVM_IAS=1
(To do a cross-compile of arm64, add "CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu-"
and "ARCH=arm64" to the "make" command lines.)
Summary:
- Clang LTO build infrastructure and arm64-specific enablement (Sami
Tolvanen)
- Recursive build CC_FLAGS_LTO fix (Alexander Lobakin)"

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
"Core scheduler updates:
- Add CONFIG_PREEMPT_DYNAMIC: this in its current form adds the
preempt=none/voluntary/full boot options (default: full), to allow
distros to build a PREEMPT kernel but fall back to close to
PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY (or PREEMPT_NONE) runtime scheduling behavior via
a boot time selection.
There's also the /debug/sched_debug switch to do this runtime.
This feature is implemented via runtime patching (a new variant of
static calls).
The scope of the runtime patching can be best reviewed by looking
at the sched_dynamic_update() function in kernel/sched/core.c.
( Note that the dynamic none/voluntary mode isn't 100% identical,
for example preempt-RCU is available in all cases, plus the
preempt count is maintained in all models, which has runtime
overhead even with the code patching. )
The PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY/PREEMPT_NONE models, used by the vast
majority of distributions, are supposed to be unaffected.
- Fix ignored rescheduling after rcu_eqs_enter(). This is a bug that
was found via rcutorture triggering a hang. The bug is that
rcu_idle_enter() may wake up a NOCB kthread, but this happens after
the last generic need_resched() check. Some cpuidle drivers fix it
by chance but many others don't.
In true 2020 fashion the original bug fix has grown into a 5-patch
scheduler/RCU fix series plus another 16 RCU patches to address the
underlying issue of missed preemption events. These are the initial
fixes that should fix current incarnations of the bug.
- Clean up rbtree usage in the scheduler, by providing & using the
following consistent set of rbtree APIs:
partial-order; less() based:
- rb_add(): add a new entry to the rbtree
- rb_add_cached(): like rb_add(), but for a rb_root_cached
total-order; cmp() based:
- rb_find(): find an entry in an rbtree
- rb_find_add(): find an entry, and add if not found
- rb_find_first(): find the first (leftmost) matching entry
- rb_next_match(): continue from rb_find_first()
- rb_for_each(): iterate a sub-tree using the previous two
- Improve the SMP/NUMA load-balancer: scan for an idle sibling in a
single pass. This is a 4-commit series where each commit improves
one aspect of the idle sibling scan logic.
- Improve the cpufreq cooling driver by getting the effective CPU
utilization metrics from the scheduler
- Improve the fair scheduler's active load-balancing logic by
reducing the number of active LB attempts & lengthen the
load-balancing interval. This improves stress-ng mmapfork
performance.
- Fix CFS's estimated utilization (util_est) calculation bug that can
result in too high utilization values
Misc updates & fixes:
- Fix the HRTICK reprogramming & optimization feature
- Fix SCHED_SOFTIRQ raising race & warning in the CPU offlining code
- Reduce dl_add_task_root_domain() overhead
- Fix uprobes refcount bug
- Process pending softirqs in flush_smp_call_function_from_idle()
- Clean up task priority related defines, remove *USER_*PRIO and
USER_PRIO()
- Simplify the sched_init_numa() deduplication sort
- Documentation updates
- Fix EAS bug in update_misfit_status(), which degraded the quality
of energy-balancing
- Smaller cleanups"

Preemption mode selection is currently hardcoded on Kconfig choices.
Introduce a dedicated option to tune preemption flavour at boot time,
This will be only available on architectures efficiently supporting
static calls in order not to tempt with the feature against additional
overhead that might be prohibitive or undesirable.
CONFIG_PREEMPT_DYNAMIC is automatically selected by CONFIG_PREEMPT if
the architecture provides the necessary support (CONFIG_STATIC_CALL_INLINE,
CONFIG_GENERIC_ENTRY, and provide with __preempt_schedule_function() /
__preempt_schedule_notrace_function()).

s390 and alpha are the only 64 bit architectures with a 32-bit ino_t.
Since this is quite unusual this causes bugs from time to time.
See e.g. commit ebce3eb2f7ef ("ceph: fix inode number handling on
arches with 32-bit ino_t") for an example.
This (obviously) also prevents s390 and alpha to use 64-bit ino_t for
tmpfs. See commit b85a7a8bb573 ("tmpfs: disallow CONFIG_TMPFS_INODE64
on s390").
Therefore switch both s390 and alpha to 64-bit ino_t. This should only
have an effect on the ustat system call. To prevent ABI breakage
define struct ustat compatible to the old layout and change
sys_ustat() accordingly.

With CONFIG_MODVERSIONS, version information is linked into each
compilation unit that exports symbols. With LTO, we cannot use this
method as all C code is compiled into LLVM bitcode instead. This
change collects symbol versions into .symversions files and merges
them in link-vmlinux.sh where they are all linked into vmlinux.o at
the same time.

This change adds build system support for Clang's Link Time
Optimization (LTO). With -flto, instead of ELF object files, Clang
produces LLVM bitcode, which is compiled into native code at link
time, allowing the final binary to be optimized globally. For more
details, see:
https://llvm.org/docs/LinkTimeOptimization.html
The Kconfig option CONFIG_LTO_CLANG is implemented as a choice,
which defaults to LTO being disabled. To use LTO, the architecture
must select ARCH_SUPPORTS_LTO_CLANG and support:
- compiling with Clang,
- compiling all assembly code with Clang's integrated assembler,
- and linking with LLD.
While using CONFIG_LTO_CLANG_FULL results in the best runtime
performance, the compilation is not scalable in time or
memory. CONFIG_LTO_CLANG_THIN enables ThinLTO, which allows
parallel optimization and faster incremental builds. ThinLTO is
used by default if the architecture also selects
ARCH_SUPPORTS_LTO_CLANG_THIN:
https://clang.llvm.org/docs/ThinLTO.html
To enable LTO, LLVM tools must be used to handle bitcode files, by
passing LLVM=1 and LLVM_IAS=1 options to make:
$ make LLVM=1 LLVM_IAS=1 defconfig
$ scripts/config -e LTO_CLANG_THIN
$ make LLVM=1 LLVM_IAS=1
To prepare for LTO support with other compilers, common parts are
gated behind the CONFIG_LTO option, and LTO can be disabled for
specific files by filtering out CC_FLAGS_LTO.

To get rid of hardcoded size/offset in those macros we need to have
a definition of i386 variant of struct elf_prstatus. However, we can't
do that in asm/compat.h - the types needed for that are not there and
adding an include of asm/user32.h into asm/compat.h would cause a lot
of mess.
That could be conveniently done in elfcore-compat.h, but currently there
is nowhere to put arch-dependent parts of it - no asm/elfcore-compat.h.
So we introduce a new file (asm/elfcore-compat.h, present on architectures
that have CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_ELFCORE_COMPAT set, currently only on x86),
have it pulled by linux/elfcore-compat.h and move the definitions there.
As a side benefit, we don't need to worry about accidental inclusion of
that file into binfmt_elf.c itself, so we don't need the dance with
COMPAT_PRSTATUS_SIZE, etc. - only fs/compat_binfmt_elf.c will see
that header.

converted native x86-32 which take 64-bit arguments to use the

sys_fanotify_mark() was however missed, as it has a general compat

takes the split args for native 32-bit.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace
Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
"The major update to this release is that there's a new arch config
option called CONFIG_HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS.
Currently, only x86_64 enables it. All the ftrace callbacks now take a
struct ftrace_regs instead of a struct pt_regs. If the architecture
has HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS enabled, then the ftrace_regs will
have enough information to read the arguments of the function being
traced, as well as access to the stack pointer.
This way, if a user (like live kernel patching) only cares about the
arguments, then it can avoid using the heavier weight "regs" callback,
that puts in enough information in the struct ftrace_regs to simulate
a breakpoint exception (needed for kprobes).
A new config option that audits the timestamps of the ftrace ring
buffer at most every event recorded.
Ftrace recursion protection has been cleaned up to move the protection
to the callback itself (this saves on an extra function call for those
callbacks).
Perf now handles its own RCU protection and does not depend on ftrace
to do it for it (saving on that extra function call).
New debug option to add "recursed_functions" file to tracefs that
lists all the places that triggered the recursion protection of the
function tracer. This will show where things need to be fixed as
recursion slows down the function tracer.
The eval enum mapping updates done at boot up are now offloaded to a
work queue, as it caused a noticeable pause on slow embedded boards.
Various clean ups and last minute fixes"

The design of DEBUG_PAGEALLOC presumes that __kernel_map_pages() must
never fail. With this assumption is wouldn't be safe to allow general
usage of this function.
Moreover, some architectures that implement __kernel_map_pages() have this
function guarded by #ifdef DEBUG_PAGEALLOC and some refuse to map/unmap
pages when page allocation debugging is disabled at runtime.
As all the users of __kernel_map_pages() were converted to use
debug_pagealloc_map_pages() it is safe to make it available only when
DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is set.

ARM and ARM64 free unused parts of the memory map just before the
initialization of the page allocator. To allow holes in the memory map both
architectures overload pfn_valid() and define HAVE_ARCH_PFN_VALID.
Allowing holes in the memory map for FLATMEM may be useful for small
machines, such as ARC and m68k and will enable those architectures to cease
using DISCONTIGMEM and still support more than one memory bank.
Move the functions that free unused memory map to generic mm and enable
them in case HAVE_ARCH_PFN_VALID=y.

Android needs to move large memory regions for garbage collection. The GC
requires moving physical pages of multi-gigabyte heap using mremap.
During this move, the application threads have to be paused for
correctness. It is critical to keep this pause as short as possible to
avoid jitters during user interaction.
Optimize mremap for >= 1GB-sized regions by moving at the PUD/PGD level if
the source and destination addresses are PUD-aligned. For
CONFIG_PGTABLE_LEVELS == 3, moving at the PUD level in effect moves PGD
entries, since the PUD entry is “folded back” onto the PGD entry. Add
HAVE_MOVE_PUD so that architectures where moving at the PUD level isn't
supported/tested can turn this off by not selecting the config.

Pull core entry/exit updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"A set of updates for entry/exit handling:
- More generalization of entry/exit functionality
- The consolidation work to reclaim TIF flags on x86 and also for
non-x86 specific TIF flags which are solely relevant for syscall
related work and have been moved into their own storage space. The
x86 specific part had to be merged in to avoid a major conflict.
- The TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL work which replaces the inefficient signal
delivery mode of task work and results in an impressive performance
improvement for io_uring. The non-x86 consolidation of this is
going to come seperate via Jens.
- The selective syscall redirection facility which provides a clean
and efficient way to support the non-Linux syscalls of WINE by
catching them at syscall entry and redirecting them to the user
space emulation. This can be utilized for other purposes as well
and has been designed carefully to avoid overhead for the regular
fastpath. This includes the core changes and the x86 support code.
- Simplification of the context tracking entry/exit handling for the
users of the generic entry code which guarantee the proper ordering
and protection.
- Preparatory changes to make the generic entry code accomodate S390
specific requirements which are mostly related to their syscall
restart mechanism"

It was believed that metag was the only architecture that required the ring
buffer to keep 8 byte words aligned on 8 byte architectures, and with its
removal, it was assumed that the ring buffer code did not need to handle
this case. It appears that sparc64 also requires this.
The following was reported on a sparc64 boot up:
kernel: futex hash table entries: 65536 (order: 9, 4194304 bytes, linear)
kernel: Running postponed tracer tests:
kernel: Testing tracer function:

s390 has its own version of IRQ entry accounting because it doesn't
account the idle time the same way the other architectures do. Only
the actual idle sleep time is accounted as idle time, the rest of the
idle task execution is accounted as system time.
Make the generic IRQ entry accounting aware of architectures that have
their own way of accounting idle time and convert s390 to use it.
This prepares s390 to get involved in further consolidations of IRQ
time accounting.

Currently, '--orphan-handling=warn' is spread out across four different
architectures in their respective Makefiles, which makes it a little
unruly to deal with in case it needs to be disabled for a specific
linker version (in this case, ld.lld 10.0.1).
To make it easier to control this, hoist this warning into Kconfig and
the main Makefile so that disabling it is simpler, as the warning will
only be enabled in a couple places (main Makefile and a couple of
compressed boot folders that blow away LDFLAGS_vmlinx) and making it
conditional is easier due to Kconfig syntax. One small additional
benefit of this is saving a call to ld-option on incremental builds
because we will have already evaluated it for CONFIG_LD_ORPHAN_WARN.
To keep the list of supported architectures the same, introduce
CONFIG_ARCH_WANT_LD_ORPHAN_WARN, which an architecture can select to
gain this automatically after all of the sections are specified and size
asserted. A special thanks to Kees Cook for the help text on this
config.

Currently the kernel does not provide an infrastructure to translate
architecture numbers to a human-readable name. Translating syscall
numbers to syscall names is possible through FTRACE_SYSCALL
infrastructure but it does not provide support for compat syscalls.
This will create a file for each PID as /proc/pid/seccomp_cache.
The file will be empty when no seccomp filters are loaded, or be
in the format of:
<arch name> <decimal syscall number> <ALLOW | FILTER>
where ALLOW means the cache is guaranteed to allow the syscall,
and filter means the cache will pass the syscall to the BPF filter.
For the docker default profile on x86_64 it looks like:
x86_64 0 ALLOW
x86_64 1 ALLOW
x86_64 2 ALLOW
x86_64 3 ALLOW
[...]
x86_64 132 ALLOW
x86_64 133 ALLOW
x86_64 134 FILTER
x86_64 135 FILTER
x86_64 136 FILTER
x86_64 137 ALLOW
x86_64 138 ALLOW
x86_64 139 FILTER
x86_64 140 ALLOW
x86_64 141 ALLOW
[...]
This file is guarded by CONFIG_SECCOMP_CACHE_DEBUG with a default
of N because I think certain users of seccomp might not want the
application to know which syscalls are definitely usable. For
the same reason, it is also guarded by CAP_SYS_ADMIN.

Historically, context tracking had to deal with fragile entry code path,
ie: before user_exit() is called and after user_enter() is called, in
case some of those spots would call schedule() or use RCU. On such
cases, the site had to be protected between exception_enter() and
exception_exit() that save the context tracking state in the task stack.
Such sleepable fragile code path had many different origins: tracing,
exceptions, early or late calls to context tracking on syscalls...
Aside of that not being pretty, saving the context tracking state on
the task stack forces us to run context tracking on all CPUs, including
housekeepers, and prevents us to completely shutdown nohz_full at
runtime on a CPU in the future as context tracking and its overhead
would still need to run system wide.
Now thanks to the extensive efforts to sanitize x86 entry code, those
conditions have been removed and we can now get rid of these workarounds
in this architecture.
Create a Kconfig feature to express this achievement.

In order to make adding configurable features into seccomp easier,
it's better to have the options at one single location, considering
especially that the bulk of seccomp code is arch-independent. An quick
look also show that many SECCOMP descriptions are outdated; they talk
about /proc rather than prctl.
As a result of moving the config option and keeping it default on,
architectures arm, arm64, csky, riscv, sh, and xtensa did not have SECCOMP
on by default prior to this and SECCOMP will be default in this change.
Architectures microblaze, mips, powerpc, s390, sh, and sparc have an
outdated depend on PROC_FS and this dependency is removed in this change.

Reading and modifying current->mm and current->active_mm and switching
mm should be done with irqs off, to prevent races seeing an intermediate
state.
This is similar to commit 38cf307c1f20 ("mm: fix kthread_use_mm() vs TLB
invalidate"). At exec-time when the new mm is activated, the old one
should usually be single-threaded and no longer used, unless something
else is holding an mm_users reference (which may be possible).
Absent other mm_users, there is also a race with preemption and lazy tlb
switching. Consider the kernel_execve case where the current thread is
using a lazy tlb active mm:
call_usermodehelper()
kernel_execve()
old_mm = current->mm;
active_mm = current->active_mm;
*** preempt *** --------------------> schedule()
prev->active_mm = NULL;
mmdrop(prev active_mm);
...
<-------------------- schedule()
current->mm = mm;
current->active_mm = mm;
if (!old_mm)
mmdrop(active_mm);
If we switch back to the kernel thread from a different mm, there is a
double free of the old active_mm, and a missing free of the new one.
Closing this race only requires interrupts to be disabled while ->mm
and ->active_mm are being switched, but the TLB problem requires also
holding interrupts off over activate_mm. Unfortunately not all archs
can do that yet, e.g., arm defers the switch if irqs are disabled and
expects finish_arch_post_lock_switch() to be called to complete the
flush; um takes a blocking lock in activate_mm().
So as a first step, disable interrupts across the mm/active_mm updates
to close the lazy tlb preempt race, and provide an arch option to
extend that to activate_mm which allows architectures doing IPI based
TLB shootdowns to close the second race.
This is a bit ugly, but in the interest of fixing the bug and backporting
before all architectures are converted this is a compromise.

Add infrastructure for an arch-specific CONFIG_HAVE_STATIC_CALL_INLINE
option, which is a faster version of CONFIG_HAVE_STATIC_CALL. At
runtime, the static call sites are patched directly, rather than using
the out-of-line trampolines.
Compared to out-of-line static calls, the performance benefits are more
modest, but still measurable. Steven Rostedt did some tracepoint
measurements:
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20181126155405.72b4f718@gandalf.local.home
This code is heavily inspired by the jump label code (aka "static
jumps"), as some of the concepts are very similar.

Static calls are a replacement for global function pointers. They use
code patching to allow direct calls to be used instead of indirect
calls. They give the flexibility of function pointers, but with
improved performance. This is especially important for cases where
retpolines would otherwise be used, as retpolines can significantly
impact performance.
The concept and code are an extension of previous work done by Ard
Biesheuvel and Steven Rostedt:
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20181005081333.15018-1-ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20181006015110.653946300@goodmis.org
There are two implementations, depending on arch support:
1) out-of-line: patched trampolines (CONFIG_HAVE_STATIC_CALL)
2) basic function pointers

Pull timekeeping updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"A set of timekeeping/VDSO updates:
- Preparatory work to allow S390 to switch over to the generic VDSO
implementation.
S390 requires that the VDSO data pointer is handed in to the
counter read function when time namespace support is enabled.
Adding the pointer is a NOOP for all other architectures because
the compiler is supposed to optimize that out when it is unused in
the architecture specific inline. The change also solved a similar
problem for MIPS which fortunately has time namespaces not yet
enabled.
S390 needs to update clock related VDSO data independent of the
timekeeping updates. This was solved so far with yet another
sequence counter in the S390 implementation. A better solution is
to utilize the already existing VDSO sequence count for this. The
core code now exposes helper functions which allow to serialize
against the timekeeper code and against concurrent readers.
S390 needs extra data for their clock readout function. The initial
common VDSO data structure did not provide a way to add that. It
now has an embedded architecture specific struct embedded which
defaults to an empty struct.
Doing this now avoids tree dependencies and conflicts post rc1 and
allows all other architectures which work on generic VDSO support
to work from a common upstream base.
- A trivial comment fix"

The initial assumption that all VDSO related data can be completely generic
does not hold. S390 needs architecture specific storage to access the clock
steering information.
Add struct arch_vdso_data to the vdso data struct. For architectures which
do not need extra data this defaults to an empty struct. Architectures
which require it, enable CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_VDSO_DATA and provide their
specific struct in asm/vdso/data.h.

On syscall entry certain work needs to be done:
- Establish state (lockdep, context tracking, tracing)
- Conditional work (ptrace, seccomp, audit...)
This code is needlessly duplicated and different in all
architectures.
Provide a generic version based on the x86 implementation which has all the
RCU and instrumentation bits right.
As interrupt/exception entry from user space needs parts of the same
functionality, provide a function for this as well.
syscall_enter_from_user_mode() and irqentry_enter_from_user_mode() must be
called right after the low level ASM entry. The calling code must be
non-instrumentable. After the functions returns state is correct and the
subsequent functions can be instrumented.

Some Makefiles already pass -fno-stack-protector unconditionally.
For example, arch/arm64/kernel/vdso/Makefile, arch/x86/xen/Makefile.
No problem report so far about hard-coding this option. So, we can
assume all supported compilers know -fno-stack-protector.
GCC 4.8 and Clang support this option (https://godbolt.org/z/_HDGzN)
Get rid of cc-option from -fno-stack-protector.
Remove CONFIG_CC_HAS_STACKPROTECTOR_NONE, which is always 'y'.
Note:
arch/mips/vdso/Makefile adds -fno-stack-protector twice, first
unconditionally, and second conditionally. I removed the second one.

All architectures support copy_thread_tls() now, so remove the legacy
copy_thread() function and the HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS config option. Everyone
uses the same process creation calling convention based on
copy_thread_tls() and struct kernel_clone_args. This will make it easier to
maintain the core process creation code under kernel/, simplifies the
callpaths and makes the identical for all architectures.
