It actively hurts proper merging, and makes for a lot of special cases.
There was a good(ish) reason for doing it originally, but it's getting
too painful to maintain. And most of the original reasons for it are
long gone.
So instead of having special code to flush partial lines to the console
(as opposed to the record buffers), do _all_ the console writing from
the record buffer, and be done with it.
If an oops happens (or some other synchronous event), we will flush the
partial lines due to the oops printing activity, so this does not affect
that. It does mean that if you have a completely hung machine, a
partial preceding line may not have been printed out.
That was some of the original reason for this complexity, in fact, back
when we used to test for the historical i386 "halt" instruction problem
by doing
pr_info("Checking 'hlt' instruction... ");
if (!boot_cpu_data.hlt_works_ok) {
pr_cont("disabled\n");
return;
}
halt();
halt();
halt();
halt();
pr_cont("OK\n");
and that model no longer works (it the 'hlt' instruction kills the
machine, the partial line won't have been flushed, so you won't even see
it).
Of course, that was also back in the days when people actually had
textual console output rather than a graphical splash-screen at bootup.
How times change..

The record logging code looks at the previous record flags in various
ways, and they are all wrong.
You can't use the previous record flags to determine anything about the
next record, because they may simply not be related. In particular, the
reason the previous record was a continuation record may well be exactly
_because_ the new record was printed by a different process, which is
why the previous record was flushed.
So all those games are simply wrong, and make the code hard to
understand (because the code fundamentally cdoes not make sense).
So remove it.

Patch series "mm: unexport __get_user_pages_unlocked()".
This patch series continues the cleanup of get_user_pages*() functions
taking advantage of the fact we can now pass gup_flags as we please.
It firstly adds an additional 'locked' parameter to
get_user_pages_remote() to allow for its callers to utilise
VM_FAULT_RETRY functionality. This is necessary as the invocation of
__get_user_pages_unlocked() in process_vm_rw_single_vec() makes use of
this and no other existing higher level function would allow it to do
so.
Secondly existing callers of __get_user_pages_unlocked() are replaced
with the appropriate higher-level replacement -
get_user_pages_unlocked() if the current task and memory descriptor are
referenced, or get_user_pages_remote() if other task/memory descriptors
are referenced (having acquiring mmap_sem.)
This patch (of 2):
Add a int *locked parameter to get_user_pages_remote() to allow
VM_FAULT_RETRY faulting behaviour similar to get_user_pages_[un]locked().
Taking into account the previous adjustments to get_user_pages*()
functions allowing for the passing of gup_flags, we are now in a
position where __get_user_pages_unlocked() need only be exported for his
ability to allow VM_FAULT_RETRY behaviour, this adjustment allows us to
subsequently unexport __get_user_pages_unlocked() as well as allowing
for future flexibility in the use of get_user_pages_remote().

Patch series "Clean up watchdog handlers", v2.
This is an attempt to cleanup watchdog handlers. Right now,
kernel/watchdog.c implements both softlockup and hardlockup detectors.
Softlockup code is generic. Hardlockup code is arch specific. Some
architectures don't use hardlockup detectors. They use their own
watchdog detectors. To make both these combination work, we have
numerous #ifdefs in kernel/watchdog.c.
We are trying here to make these handlers independent of each other.
Also provide an interface for architectures to implement their own
handlers. watchdog_nmi_enable and watchdog_nmi_disable will be defined
as weak such that architectures can override its definitions.
Thanks to Don Zickus for his suggestions.
Here are our previous discussions
http://www.spinics.net/lists/sparclinux/msg16543.htmlhttp://www.spinics.net/lists/sparclinux/msg16441.html
This patch (of 3):
Move shared macros and definitions to nmi.h so that watchdog.c, new file
watchdog_hld.c or any other architecture specific handler can use those
definitions.

kdb_trap_printk allows to pass normal printk() messages to kdb via
vkdb_printk(). For example, it is used to get backtrace using the
classic show_stack(), see kdb_show_stack().
vkdb_printf() tries to avoid a potential infinite loop by disabling the
trap. But this approach is racy, for example:
CPU1 CPU2
vkdb_printf()
// assume that kdb_trap_printk == 0
saved_trap_printk = kdb_trap_printk;
kdb_trap_printk = 0;
kdb_show_stack()
kdb_trap_printk++;
Problem1: Now, a nested printk() on CPU0 calls vkdb_printf()
even when it should have been disabled. It will not
cause a deadlock but...
// using the outdated saved value: 0
kdb_trap_printk = saved_trap_printk;
kdb_trap_printk--;
Problem2: Now, kdb_trap_printk == -1 and will stay like this.
It means that all messages will get passed to kdb from
now on.
This patch removes the racy saved_trap_printk handling. Instead, the
recursion is prevented by a check for the locked CPU.
The solution is still kind of racy. A non-related printk(), from
another process, might get trapped by vkdb_printf(). And the wanted
printk() might not get trapped because kdb_printf_cpu is assigned. But
this problem existed even with the original code.
A proper solution would be to get_cpu() before setting kdb_trap_printk
and trap messages only from this CPU. I am not sure if it is worth the
effort, though.
In fact, the race is very theoretical. When kdb is running any of the
commands that use kdb_trap_printk there is a single active CPU and the
other CPUs should be in a holding pen inside kgdb_cpu_enter().
The only time this is violated is when there is a timeout waiting for
the other CPUs to report to the holding pen.
Finally, note that the situation is a bit schizophrenic. vkdb_printf()
explicitly allows recursion but only from KDB code that calls
kdb_printf() directly. On the other hand, the generic printk()
recursion is not allowed because it might cause an infinite loop. This
is why we could not hide the decision inside vkdb_printf() easily.

kdb_printf_lock does not prevent other CPUs from entering the critical
section because it is ignored when KDB_STATE_PRINTF_LOCK is set.
The problematic situation might look like:
CPU0 CPU1
vkdb_printf()
if (!KDB_STATE(PRINTF_LOCK))
KDB_STATE_SET(PRINTF_LOCK);
spin_lock_irqsave(&kdb_printf_lock, flags);
vkdb_printf()
if (!KDB_STATE(PRINTF_LOCK))
BANG: The PRINTF_LOCK state is set and CPU1 is entering the critical
section without spinning on the lock.
The problem is that the code tries to implement locking using two state
variables that are not handled atomically. Well, we need a custom
locking because we want to allow reentering the critical section on the
very same CPU.
Let's use solution from Petr Zijlstra that was proposed for a similar
scenario, see
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20161018171513.734367391@infradead.org
This patch uses the same trick with cmpxchg(). The only difference is
that we want to handle only recursion from the same context and
therefore we disable interrupts.
In addition, KDB_STATE_PRINTF_LOCK is removed. In fact, we are not able
to set it a non-racy way.

kdb_event state variable is only set but never checked in the kernel
code.
http://www.spinics.net/lists/kdb/msg01733.html suggests that this
variable affected WARN_CONSOLE_UNLOCKED() in the original
implementation. But this check never went upstream.
The semantic is unclear and racy. The value is updated after the
kdb_printf_lock is acquired and after it is released. It should be
symmetric at minimum. The value should be manipulated either inside or
outside the locked area.
Fortunately, it seems that the original function is gone and we could
simply remove the state variable.

We've got a delay loop waiting for secondary CPUs. That loop uses
loops_per_jiffy. However, loops_per_jiffy doesn't actually mean how
many tight loops make up a jiffy on all architectures. It is quite
common to see things like this in the boot log:
Calibrating delay loop (skipped), value calculated using timer
frequency.. 48.00 BogoMIPS (lpj=24000)
In my case I was seeing lots of cases where other CPUs timed out
entering the debugger only to print their stack crawls shortly after the
kdb> prompt was written.
Elsewhere in kgdb we already use udelay(), so that should be safe enough
to use to implement our timeout. We'll delay 1 ms for 1000 times, which
should give us a full second of delay (just like the old code wanted)
but allow us to notice that we're done every 1 ms.

Currently in x86_64, the symbol address of phys_base is exported to
vmcoreinfo. Dave Anderson complained this is really useless for his
Crash implementation. Because in user-space utility Crash and
Makedumpfile which exported vmcore information is mainly used for, value
of phys_base is needed to covert virtual address of exported kernel
symbol to physical address. Especially init_level4_pgt, if we want to
access and go over the page table to look up a PA corresponding to VA,
firstly we need calculate
page_dir = SYMBOL(init_level4_pgt) - __START_KERNEL_map + phys_base;
Now in Crash and Makedumpfile, we have to analyze the vmcore elf program
header to get value of phys_base. As Dave said, it would be preferable
if it were readily availabl in vmcoreinfo rather than depending upon the
PT_LOAD semantics.
Hence in this patch change to export the value of phys_base instead of
its virtual address.
And people also complained that KERNEL_IMAGE_SIZE exporting is x86_64
only, should be moved into arch dependent function
arch_crash_save_vmcoreinfo. Do the moving in this patch.

I was amused to find "unsafe core_pattern" warning having these lines in
/etc/sysctl.conf:
fs.suid_dumpable=2
kernel.core_pattern=/core/core-%e-%p-%E
kernel.core_uses_pid=0
Turns out kernel is formally right. Default core_pattern is just "core",
which doesn't qualify for secure path while setting suid.dumpable.
Hint admins about solution, clarify sysctl names, delete unnecessary '\'
characters (string literals are concatenated regardless) and reformat for
easier grepping.

When running certain database workload on a high-end system with many
CPUs, it was found that spinlock contention in the sigprocmask syscalls
became a significant portion of the overall CPU cycles as shown below.

Looking further into the swapcontext function in glibc, it was found that
the function always call sigprocmask() without checking if there are
changes in the signal mask.
A check was added to the __set_current_blocked() function to avoid taking
the sighand->siglock spinlock if there is no change in the signal mask.
This will prevent unneeded spinlock contention when many threads are
trying to call sigprocmask().
With this patch applied, the spinlock contention in sigprocmask() was
gone.

NMI handler doesn't call set_irq_regs(), it's set only by normal IRQ.
Thus get_irq_regs() returns NULL or stale registers snapshot with IP/SP
pointing to the code interrupted by IRQ which was interrupted by NMI.
NULL isn't a problem: in this case watchdog calls dump_stack() and
prints full stack trace including NMI. But if we're stuck in IRQ
handler then NMI watchlog will print stack trace without IRQ part at
all.
This patch uses registers snapshot passed into NMI handler as arguments:
these registers point exactly to the instruction interrupted by NMI.

Pull namespace updates from Eric Biederman:
"After a lot of discussion and work we have finally reachanged a basic
understanding of what is necessary to make unprivileged mounts safe in
the presence of EVM and IMA xattrs which the last commit in this
series reflects. While technically it is a revert the comments it adds
are important for people not getting confused in the future. Clearing
up that confusion allows us to seriously work on unprivileged mounts
of fuse in the next development cycle.
The rest of the fixes in this set are in the intersection of user
namespaces, ptrace, and exec. I started with the first fix which
started a feedback cycle of finding additional issues during review
and fixing them. Culiminating in a fix for a bug that has been present
since at least Linux v1.0.
Potentially these fixes were candidates for being merged during the rc
cycle, and are certainly backport candidates but enough little things
turned up during review and testing that I decided they should be
handled as part of the normal development process just to be certain
there were not any great surprises when it came time to backport some
of these fixes"

Pull audit updates from Paul Moore:
"After the small number of patches for v4.9, we've got a much bigger
pile for v4.10.
The bulk of these patches involve a rework of the audit backlog queue
to enable us to move the netlink multicasting out of the task/thread
that generates the audit record and into the kernel thread that emits
the record (just like we do for the audit unicast to auditd).
While we were playing with the backlog queue(s) we fixed a number of
other little problems with the code, and from all the testing so far
things look to be in much better shape now. Doing this also allowed us
to re-enable disabling IRQs for some netns operations ("netns: avoid
disabling irq for netns id").

Resetting audit_sock appears to be racy.
audit_sock was being copied and dereferenced without using a refcount on
the source sock.
Bump the refcount on the underlying sock when we store a refrence in
audit_sock and release it when we reset audit_sock. audit_sock
modification needs the audit_cmd_mutex.

The backlog queue handling in audit_log_start() is a little odd with
some questionable design decisions, this patch attempts to rectify
this with the following changes:
* Never make auditd wait, ignore any backlog limits as we need auditd
awake so it can drain the backlog queue.
* When we hit a backlog limit and start dropping records, don't wake
all the tasks sleeping on the backlog, that's silly. Instead, let
kauditd_thread() take care of waking everyone once it has had a chance
to drain the backlog queue.
* Don't keep a global backlog timeout countdown, make it per-task. A
per-task timer means we won't have all the sleeping tasks waking at
the same time and hammering on an already stressed backlog queue.

The audit record backlog queue has always been a bit of a mess, and
the moving the multicast send into kauditd_thread() from
audit_log_end() only makes things worse. This patch attempts to fix
the backlog queue with a better design that should hold up better
under load and have less of a performance impact at syscall
invocation time.
While it looks like there is a log going on in this patch, the main
change is the move from a single backlog queue to three queues:
* A queue for holding records generated from audit_log_end() that
haven't been consumed by kauditd_thread() (audit_queue).
* A queue for holding records that have been sent via multicast but
had a temporary failure when sending via unicast and need a resend
(audit_retry_queue).
* A queue for holding records that haven't been sent via unicast
because no one is listening (audit_hold_queue).
Special care is taken in this patch to ensure that the proper
record ordering is preserved, e.g. we send everything in the hold
queue first, then the retry queue, and finally the main queue.

Sending audit netlink multicast messages is bad for all the same
reasons that sending audit netlink unicast messages is bad, so this
patch reworks things so that we don't do the multicast send in
audit_log_end(), we do it from the dedicated kauditd_thread thread just
as we do for unicast messages.

Pull block layer updates from Jens Axboe:
"This is the main block pull request this series. Contrary to previous
release, I've kept the core and driver changes in the same branch. We
always ended up having dependencies between the two for obvious
reasons, so makes more sense to keep them together. That said, I'll
probably try and keep more topical branches going forward, especially
for cycles that end up being as busy as this one.
The major parts of this pull request is:
- Improved support for O_DIRECT on block devices, with a small
private implementation instead of using the pig that is
fs/direct-io.c. From Christoph.
- Request completion tracking in a scalable fashion. This is utilized
by two components in this pull, the new hybrid polling and the
writeback queue throttling code.
- Improved support for polling with O_DIRECT, adding a hybrid mode
that combines pure polling with an initial sleep. From me.
- Support for automatic throttling of writeback queues on the block
side. This uses feedback from the device completion latencies to
scale the queue on the block side up or down. From me.
- Support from SMR drives in the block layer and for SD. From Hannes
and Shaun.
- Multi-connection support for nbd. From Josef.
- Cleanup of request and bio flags, so we have a clear split between
which are bio (or rq) private, and which ones are shared. From
Christoph.
- A set of patches from Bart, that improve how we handle queue
stopping and starting in blk-mq.
- Support for WRITE_ZEROES from Chaitanya.
- Lightnvm updates from Javier/Matias.
- Supoort for FC for the nvme-over-fabrics code. From James Smart.
- A bunch of fixes from a whole slew of people, too many to name
here"

Commit 4bcc595ccd ("printk: reinstate KERN_CONT for printing
continuation lines") allows to define more message headers for a single
message. The motivation is that continuous lines might get mixed.
Therefore it make sense to define the right log level for every piece of
a cont line.
This patch introduces printk_skip_headers() that will skip all headers
and uses it in the kdb code instead of printk_skip_level().
This approach helps to fix other printk_skip_level() users
independently.

Commit 4bcc595ccd ("printk: reinstate KERN_CONT for printing
continuation lines") added back KERN_CONT message header. As a result
it might appear in the middle of the line when the parts are squashed
via the temporary NMI buffer.
A reasonable solution seems to be to split the text in the NNI temporary
not only by newlines but also by the message headers.
Another solution would be to filter out KERN_CONT when writing to the
temporary buffer. But this would complicate the lockless handling.
Also it would not solve problems with a missing newline that was there
even before the KERN_CONT stuff.
This patch moves the temporary buffer handling into separate function.
I played with it and it seems that using the char pointers make the code
easier to read.
Also it prints the final newline as a continuous line.
Finally, it moves handling of the s->len overflow into the paranoid
check. And allows to recover from the disaster.

vsnprintf() adds the trailing '\0' but it does not count it into the
number of printed characters. The result is that there is one byte less
space for the real characters in the buffer.
The broken check for the free space might cause that we will repeatedly
try to print 1 character into the buffer, never reach the full buffer,
and do not count the messages as missed.
Also vsnprintf() returns the number of characters that would be printed
if the buffer was big enough. As a result, s->len might be bigger than
the size of the buffer[*]. And the printk() function might return
bigger len than it really printed. Both problems are fixed by using
vscnprintf() instead.
Note that I though about increasing the number of missed messages even
when the message was shrunken. But it made the code even more
complicated. I think that it is not worth it. Shrunken messages are
usually easy to recognize. And it should be a corner case.
[*] The overflown s->len value is crazy and unexpected. I "made a
mistake" and reported this situation as an internal error when fixed
handling of PR_CONT headers in some other patch.
