The function rb_reserved_next_event() is called by two functions:
ring_buffer_lock_reserve() and ring_buffer_write(). This is in a very hot
path of the tracing code, and it is best that they are not functions. The
two callers are basically wrapers for rb_reserver_next_event(). Removing the
function calls can save execution time in the hotpath of tracing.

As Andi Kleen pointed out in the Link below, the trace events has quite a
bit of code execution. A lot of that happens to be calling functions, where
some of them should simply be inlined. One of these functions happens to be
trace_buffer_lock_reserve() which is also a global, but it is used
throughout the file it is defined in. Create a __trace_buffer_lock_reserve()
that is always inlined that the file can benefit from.

The creation of the set_event_pid file was assigned to a variable "entry"
but that variable was never used. Ideally, it should be used to check if the
file was created and warn if it was not.
The files header_page, header_event should also be checked and a warning if
they fail to be created.
The "enable" file was moved up, as it is a more crucial file to have and a
hard failure (return -ENOMEM) should be returned if it is not created.

Currently Function traces can be only exported to the ring buffer. This
adds a trace_export concept which can process traces and export
them to a registered destination as an addition to the current
one that outputs to Ftrace - i.e. ring buffer.
In this way, if we want function traces to be sent to other destinations
rather than only to the ring buffer, we just need to register a new
trace_export and implement its own .write() function for writing traces to
storage.
With this patch, only function tracing (trace type is TRACE_FN)
is supported.

A new file is created:
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_marker_raw
This allows for appications to create data structures and write the binary
data directly into it, and then read the trace data out from trace_pipe_raw
into the same type of data structure. This saves on converting numbers into
ASCII that would be required by trace_marker.

The trace_events_file.c filter logic can be a bit complex. I copy this into
a userspace program where I can debug it a bit easier. One issue is the op
is defined in most places as an int instead of as an enum, and gdb just
gives the value when debugging. Having the actual op name shown in gdb is
more useful.
This has no functionality change, but helps in debugging when the file is
debugged in user space.

Currently the filter logic for comparisons (like greater-than and less-than)
are used, they share the same function and a switch statement is used to
jump to the comparison type to perform. This is done in the extreme hot path
of the tracing code, and it does not take much more space to create a
unique comparison function to perform each type of comparison and remove the
switch statement.
Also, a bug was found where the binary and operation for 64 bits could fail
if the resulting bits were greater than 32 bits, because the result was
passed into a 32 bit variable. This was fixed when adding the separate
binary and function.

Use glob_match() to support flexible glob wildcards (*,?)
and character classes ([) for ftrace.
Since the full glob matching is slower than the current
partial matching routines(*pat, pat*, *pat*), this leaves
those routines and just add MATCH_GLOB for complex glob
expression.

When a module is first loaded and its function ip records are added to the
ftrace list of functions to modify, they are set to DISABLED, as their text
is still in a read only state. When the module is fully loaded, and can be
updated, the flag is cleared, and if their's any functions that should be
tracing them, it is updated at that moment.
But there's several locations that do record accounting and should ignore
records that are marked as disabled, or they can cause issues.
Alexei already fixed one location, but others need to be addressed.

ftrace_shutdown() checks for sanity of ftrace records
and if dyn_ftrace->flags is not zero, it will warn.
It can happen that 'flags' are set to FTRACE_FL_DISABLED at this point,
since some module was loaded, but before ftrace_module_enable()
cleared the flags for this module.
In other words the module.c is doing:
ftrace_module_init(mod); // calls ftrace_update_code() that sets flags=FTRACE_FL_DISABLED
... // here ftrace_shutdown() is called that warns, since
err = prepare_coming_module(mod); // didn't have a chance to clear FTRACE_FL_DISABLED
Fix it by ignoring disabled records.
It's similar to what __ftrace_hash_rec_update() is already doing.

PM / sleep: don't suspend parent when async child suspend_{noirq, late} fails

cpupower: Correct return type of cpu_power_is_cpu_online() in cpufreq-set
This reverts commit 05fd007e46 ("console: don't prefer first
registered if DT specifies stdout-path").
The reverted commit changes existing behavior on which many ARM boards
rely. Many ARM small-board-computers, like e.g. the Raspberry Pi have
both a video output and a serial console. Depending on whether the user
is using the device as a more regular computer; or as a headless device
we need to have the console on either one or the other.
Many users rely on the kernel behavior of the console being present on
both outputs, before the reverted commit the console setup with no
console= kernel arguments on an ARM board which sets stdout-path in dt
would look like this:
[root@localhost ~]# cat /proc/consoles
ttyS0 -W- (EC p a) 4:64
tty0 -WU (E p ) 4:1
Where as after the reverted commit, it looks like this:
[root@localhost ~]# cat /proc/consoles
ttyS0 -W- (EC p a) 4:64
This commit reverts commit 05fd007e46 ("console: don't prefer first

behavior.

fork: Add task stack refcounting sanity check and prevent premature task stack freeing
When CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK=y, it is possible that an exited thread
remains in the task list after its stack pointer was already set to NULL.
Therefore, thread_saved_pc() and stack_not_used() in sched_show_task()
will trigger NULL pointer dereference if an attempt to dump such thread's
traces (e.g. SysRq-t, khungtaskd) is made.
Since show_stack() in sched_show_task() calls try_get_task_stack() and
sched_show_task() is called from interrupt context, calling
try_get_task_stack() from sched_show_task() will be safe as well.

While it looks like the first WARN() is probably valid, the other one is
triggered by disabling event via perf_event_disable() from atomic context.
The event is disabled here in case we were not able to emulate
the instruction that hit the breakpoint. By disabling the event
we unschedule the event and make sure it's not scheduled back.
But we can't call perf_event_disable() from atomic context, instead
we need to use the event's pending_disable irq_work method to disable it.

only after pmu_bus is registered, which happens in the
perf_event_sysfs_init() call and sets the 'pmu_bus_running' flag.
The fix is to get the 'pmu_bus_running' flag state at the point
the PMU is taken out of the PMU list and remove the device
later only if it's set.

in_interrupt() returns a nonzero value when we are either in an

interested in only ignoring coverage from actual interrupts, do a proper

As a result of this change, kcov will start to collect coverage from
within local_bh_disable()/local_bh_enable() sections.

The per-zone waitqueues exist because of a scalability issue with the
page waitqueues on some NUMA machines, but it turns out that they hurt
normal loads, and now with the vmalloced stacks they also end up
breaking gfs2 that uses a bit_wait on a stack object:
wait_on_bit(&gh->gh_iflags, HIF_WAIT, TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE)
where 'gh' can be a reference to the local variable 'mount_gh' on the
stack of fill_super().
The reason the per-zone hash table breaks for this case is that there is
no "zone" for virtual allocations, and trying to look up the physical
page to get at it will fail (with a BUG_ON()).
It turns out that I actually complained to the mm people about the
per-zone hash table for another reason just a month ago: the zone lookup
also hurts the regular use of "unlock_page()" a lot, because the zone
lookup ends up forcing several unnecessary cache misses and generates
horrible code.
As part of that earlier discussion, we had a much better solution for
the NUMA scalability issue - by just making the page lock have a
separate contention bit, the waitqueue doesn't even have to be looked at
for the normal case.
Peter Zijlstra already has a patch for that, but let's see if anybody
even notices. In the meantime, let's fix the actual gfs2 breakage by
simplifying the bitlock waitqueues and removing the per-zone issue.

When a timer is enqueued we try to forward the timer base clock. This
mechanism has two issues:
1) Forwarding a remote base unlocked
The forwarding function is called from get_target_base() with the current
timer base lock held. But if the new target base is a different base than
the current base (can happen with NOHZ, sigh!) then the forwarding is done
on an unlocked base. This can lead to corruption of base->clk.
Solution is simple: Invoke the forwarding after the target base is locked.
2) Possible corruption due to jiffies advancing
This is similar to the issue in get_net_timer_interrupt() which was fixed
in the previous patch. jiffies can advance between check and assignement
and therefore advancing base->clk beyond the next expiry value.
So we need to read jiffies into a local variable once and do the checks and
assignment with the local copy.

Ashton and Michael reported, that kernel versions 4.8 and later suffer from
USB timeouts which are caused by the timer wheel rework.
This is caused by a bug in the base clock forwarding mechanism, which leads
to timers expiring early. The scenario which leads to this is:
run_timers()
while (jiffies >= base->clk) {
collect_expired_timers();
base->clk++;
expire_timers();
}
So base->clk = jiffies + 1. Now the cpu goes idle:
idle()
get_next_timer_interrupt()
nextevt = __next_time_interrupt();
if (time_after(nextevt, base->clk))
base->clk = jiffies;
jiffies has not advanced since run_timers(), so this assignment effectively
decrements base->clk by one.
base->clk is the index into the timer wheel arrays. So let's assume the
following state after the base->clk increment in run_timers():
jiffies = 0
base->clk = 1
A timer gets enqueued with an expiry delta of 63 ticks (which is the case
with the USB timeout and HZ=250) so the resulting bucket index is:
base->clk + delta = 1 + 63 = 64
The timer goes into the first wheel level. The array size is 64 so it ends
up in bucket 0, which is correct as it takes 63 ticks to advance base->clk
to index into bucket 0 again.
If the cpu goes idle before jiffies advance, then the bug in the forwarding
mechanism sets base->clk back to 0, so the next invocation of run_timers()
at the next tick will index into bucket 0 and therefore expire the timer 62
ticks too early.
Instead of blindly setting base->clk to jiffies we must make the forwarding
conditional on jiffies > base->clk, but we cannot use jiffies for this as
we might run into the following issue:
if (time_after(jiffies, base->clk) {
if (time_after(nextevt, base->clk))
base->clk = jiffies;
jiffies can increment between the check and the assigment far enough to
advance beyond nextevt. So we need to use a stable value for checking.
get_next_timer_interrupt() has the basej argument which is the jiffies
value snapshot taken in the calling code. So we can just that.
Thanks to Ashton for bisecting and providing trace data!

Linus stumbled over the unlocked modification of the timer expiry value in
mod_timer() which is an optimization for timers which stay in the same
bucket - due to the bucket granularity - despite their expiry time getting
updated.
The optimization itself still makes sense even if we take the lock, because
in case that the bucket stays the same, we avoid the pointless
queue/enqueue dance.
Make the check and the modification of timer->expires protected by the base
lock and shuffle the remaining code around so we can keep the lock held
when we actually have to requeue the timer to a different bucket.

But if the output was flushed by something else (concurrent printk

Merge the gup_flags cleanups from Lorenzo Stoakes:
"This patch series adjusts functions in the get_user_pages* family such
that desired FOLL_* flags are passed as an argument rather than
implied by flags.
The purpose of this change is to make the use of FOLL_FORCE explicit
so it is easier to grep for and clearer to callers that this flag is
being used. The use of FOLL_FORCE is an issue as it overrides missing
VM_READ/VM_WRITE flags for the VMA whose pages we are reading
from/writing to, which can result in surprising behaviour.
The patch series came out of the discussion around commit 38e0885465
("mm: check VMA flags to avoid invalid PROT_NONE NUMA balancing"),
which addressed a BUG_ON() being triggered when a page was faulted in
with PROT_NONE set but having been overridden by FOLL_FORCE.
do_numa_page() was run on the assumption the page _must_ be one marked
for NUMA node migration as an actual PROT_NONE page would have been
dealt with prior to this code path, however FOLL_FORCE introduced a
situation where this assumption did not hold.
See
https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=147585445805166
for the patch proposal"
Additionally, there's a fix for an ancient bug related to FOLL_FORCE and
FOLL_WRITE by me.
[ This branch was rebased recently to add a few more acked-by's and
reviewed-by's ]
* gup_flag-cleanups:

mm: replace __access_remote_vm() write parameter with gup_flags
mm: replace get_user_pages_remote() write/force parameters with gup_flags

This removes the 'write' argument from access_process_vm() and replaces
it with 'gup_flags' as use of this function previously silently implied
FOLL_FORCE, whereas after this patch callers explicitly pass this flag.
We make this explicit as use of FOLL_FORCE can result in surprising

A scheduler performance regression has been reported by Joseph Salisbury,
which he bisected back to:
3d30544f02 ("sched/fair: Apply more PELT fixes)
The regression triggers when several levels of task groups are involved
(read: SystemD) and cpu_possible_mask != cpu_present_mask.
The root cause is that group entity's load (tg_child->se[i]->avg.load_avg)
is initialized to scale_load_down(se->load.weight). During the creation of
a child task group, its group entities on possible CPUs are attached to
parent's cfs_rq (tg_parent) and their loads are added to the parent's load
(tg_parent->load_avg) with update_tg_load_avg().
But only the load on online CPUs will then be updated to reflect real load,
whereas load on other CPUs will stay at the initial value.
The result is a tg_parent->load_avg that is higher than the real load, the
weight of group entities (tg_parent->se[i]->load.weight) on online CPUs is
smaller than it should be, and the task group gets a less running time than
what it could expect.
( This situation can be detected with /proc/sched_debug. The ".tg_load_avg"
of the task group will be much higher than sum of ".tg_load_avg_contrib"
of online cfs_rqs of the task group. )
The load of group entities don't have to be intialized to something else
than 0 because their load will increase when an entity is attached.
