Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs
Pull vfs updates from Al Viro: - more ->d_init() stuff (work.dcache) - pathname resolution cleanups (work.namei) - a few missing iov_iter primitives - copy_from_iter_full() and friends. Either copy the full requested amount, advance the iterator and return true, or fail, return false and do _not_ advance the iterator. Quite a few open-coded callers converted (and became more readable and harder to fuck up that way) (work.iov_iter) - several assorted patches, the big one being logfs removal * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: logfs: remove from tree vfs: fix put_compat_statfs64() does not handle errors namei: fold should_follow_link() with the step into not-followed link namei: pass both WALK_GET and WALK_MORE to should_follow_link() namei: invert WALK_PUT logics namei: shift interpretation of LOOKUP_FOLLOW inside should_follow_link() namei: saner calling conventions for mountpoint_last() namei.c: get rid of user_path_parent() switch getfrag callbacks to ..._full() primitives make skb_add_data,{_nocache}() and skb_copy_to_page_nocache() advance only on success [iov_iter] new primitives - copy_from_iter_full() and friends don't open-code file_inode() ceph: switch to use of ->d_init() ceph: unify dentry_operations instances lustre: switch to use of ->d_init() |

powerpc updates for 4.10
Highlights include: - Support for the kexec_file_load() syscall, which is a prereq for secure and trusted boot. - Prevent kernel execution of userspace on P9 Radix (similar to SMEP/PXN). - Sort the exception tables at build time, to save time at boot, and store them as relative offsets to save space in the kernel image & memory. - Allow building the kernel with thin archives, which should allow us to build an allyesconfig once some other fixes land. - Build fixes to allow us to correctly rebuild when changing the kernel endian from big to little or vice versa. - Plumbing so that we can avoid doing a full mm TLB flush on P9 Radix. - Initial stack protector support (-fstack-protector). - Support for dumping the radix (aka. Linux) and hash page tables via debugfs. - Fix an oops in cxl coredump generation when cxl_get_fd() is used. - Freescale updates from Scott: "Highlights include 8xx hugepage support, qbman fixes/cleanup, device tree updates, and some misc cleanup." - Many and varied fixes and minor enhancements as always.

This release has a few updates:
o STM can hook into the function tracer o Function filtering now supports more advance glob matching o Ftrace selftests updates and added tests o Softirq tag in traces now show only softirqs o ARM nop added to non traced locations at compile time o New trace_marker_raw file that allows for binary input o Optimizations to the ring buffer o Removal of kmap in trace_marker o Wakeup and irqsoff tracers now adhere to the set_graph_notrace file o Other various fixes and clean ups Note, there are two patches marked for stable. These were discovered near the end of the 4.9 rc release cycle. By the time I had them tested it was just a matter of days before 4.9 would be released, and I figured I would just submit them in the merge window. They are old bugs and not critical. Nothing non-root could abuse. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQExBAABCAAbBQJYUrFHFBxyb3N0ZWR0QGdvb2RtaXMub3JnAAoJEMm5BfJq2Y3L 2+AIAIr20kSQV/nA5htGAeCTobVk3WUxY6bvjd9mIJDKPP19akNLyREW0G3KnfCr yhx4aFRZG98fRu/6F8qieRosyN36lADDVYHelMFHMpcTOpE2aZGjaaOuNGxOEA9v FmMPTX+K3+dzKyFP4l68R3+5JuQ1/AqLTioTWeLW8IDQ2OOVsjD8+0BuXrNKMJDY o6U4Hk5U/vn+zHc6BmgBzloAXemBd7iJ1t5V3FRRGvm8yv3HU85Twc5ofGeYTWvB J8PboEywRlIzxg0Kd8mxnMI5PgaKZSEc2ub8E7cY/CZ5PYpDE2xDA2hJmJgfYp00 1VW+DHRpRZfElsCcya6S6P4bs5Y= =MGZ/ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'trace-v4.10' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: "This release has a few updates: - STM can hook into the function tracer - Function filtering now supports more advance glob matching - Ftrace selftests updates and added tests - Softirq tag in traces now show only softirqs - ARM nop added to non traced locations at compile time - New trace_marker_raw file that allows for binary input - Optimizations to the ring buffer - Removal of kmap in trace_marker - Wakeup and irqsoff tracers now adhere to the set_graph_notrace file - Other various fixes and clean ups" * tag 'trace-v4.10' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: (42 commits) selftests: ftrace: Shift down default message verbosity kprobes/trace: Fix kprobe selftest for newer gcc tracing/kprobes: Add a helper method to return number of probe hits tracing/rb: Init the CPU mask on allocation tracing: Use SOFTIRQ_OFFSET for softirq dectection for more accurate results tracing/fgraph: Have wakeup and irqsoff tracers ignore graph functions too fgraph: Handle a case where a tracer ignores set_graph_notrace tracing: Replace kmap with copy_from_user() in trace_marker writing ftrace/x86_32: Set ftrace_stub to weak to prevent gcc from using short jumps to it tracing: Allow benchmark to be enabled at early_initcall() tracing: Have system enable return error if one of the events fail tracing: Do not start benchmark on boot up tracing: Have the reg function allow to fail ring-buffer: Force rb_end_commit() and rb_set_commit_to_write() inline ring-buffer: Froce rb_update_write_stamp() to be inlined ring-buffer: Force inline of hotpath helper functions tracing: Make __buffer_unlock_commit() always_inline tracing: Make tracepoint_printk a static_key ring-buffer: Always inline rb_event_data() ring-buffer: Make rb_reserve_next_event() always inlined ... |

printk: remove console flushing special cases for partial buffered lines
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..

printk: remove games with previous record flags
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.

mm: add locked parameter to get_user_pages_remote()
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().

kernel/watchdog.c: move shared definitions to nmi.h
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.

posix-timers: give lazy compilers some help optimizing code away
The OpenRISC compiler (so far) fails to optimize away a large portion of code containing a reference to posix_timer_event in alarmtimer.c when CONFIG_POSIX_TIMERS is unset.

kdb: call vkdb_printf() from vprintk_default() only when wanted
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: properly synchronize vkdb_printf() calls with other CPUs
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: remove unused kdb_event handling
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.

kernel/debug/debug_core.c: more properly delay for secondary CPUs
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.

kexec: export the value of phys_base instead of symbol address
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.

signals: avoid unnecessary taking of sighand->siglock
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. 9.30% 9.30% 905387 dataserver /proc/kcore 0x7fff8163f4d2 [k] _raw_spin_lock_irq | ---_raw_spin_lock_irq | |--99.34%-- __set_current_blocked | sigprocmask | sys_rt_sigprocmask | system_call_fastpath | | | |--50.63%-- __swapcontext | | | | | |--99.91%-- upsleepgeneric | | | |--49.36%-- __setcontext | | ktskRun 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.

kernel/watchdog: use nmi registers snapshot in hardlockup handler
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.

This patch also adds a 'auditd_pid' check to the top of kauditd_send_unicast_skb() so we can fail quicker. Signed-off-by: Paul Moore <paul@paul-moore.com> |

audit: wake up kauditd_thread after auditd registers
This patch was suggested by Richard Briggs back in 2015, see the link to the mail archive below. Unfortunately, that patch is no longer even remotely valid due to other changes to the code. * https://www.redhat.com/archives/linux-audit/2015-October/msg00075.html Suggested-by: Richard Guy Briggs <rgb@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Moore <paul@paul-moore.com> |

audit: rework audit_log_start()
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. Signed-off-by: Paul Moore <paul@paul-moore.com> |

audit: rework the audit queue handling
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.

audit: queue netlink multicast sends just like we do for unicast sends
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.

Merge branch 'for-4.10/block' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block
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.

The whole exercise removed about 2000 lines of code in total and in course of the conversion several dozen bugs got fixed. The new mechanism allows to test almost every hotplug step standalone, so usage sites can exercise all transitions extensively. There is more room for improvement, like integrating all the pointlessly different architecture mechanisms of synchronizing, setting cpus online etc into the core code" * 'smp-hotplug-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (60 commits) tracing/rb: Init the CPU mask on allocation soc/fsl/qbman: Convert to hotplug state machine soc/fsl/qbman: Convert to hotplug state machine zram: Convert to hotplug state machine KVM/PPC/Book3S HV: Convert to hotplug state machine arm64/cpuinfo: Convert to hotplug state machine arm64/cpuinfo: Make hotplug notifier symmetric mm/compaction: Convert to hotplug state machine iommu/vt-d: Convert to hotplug state machine mm/zswap: Convert pool to hotplug state machine mm/zswap: Convert dst-mem to hotplug state machine mm/zsmalloc: Convert to hotplug state machine mm/vmstat: Convert to hotplug state machine mm/vmstat: Avoid on each online CPU loops mm/vmstat: Drop get_online_cpus() from init_cpu_node_state/vmstat_cpu_dead() tracing/rb: Convert to hotplug state machine oprofile/nmi timer: Convert to hotplug state machine net/iucv: Use explicit clean up labels in iucv_init() x86/pci/amd-bus: Convert to hotplug state machine x86/oprofile/nmi: Convert to hotplug state machine ... |
