The rcutree.kthread_prio kernel-boot parameter is used to set the priority for boost (rcub), per-CPU (rcuc), and grace-period (rcu_preempt or rcu_sched) kthreads. It is also used by rcutorture to check whether it is possible to meaningfully test RCU priority boosting. However, all of these cases will either ignore or be confused by any post-boot changes to rcutree.kthread_prio. Note that the user really can change the priorities of all of these kthreads using chrt, given sufficient privileges. Therefore, the read-write nature of sysfs access to rcutree.kthread_prio is thus at best an attractive nuisance. This commit therefore changes sysfs access to rcutree.kthread_prio to be read-only.

The purpose of exit_rcu() is to handle cases where buggy code causes a task to exit within an RCU read-side critical section. It currently does that in the case where said RCU read-side critical section was preempted at least once, but fails to handle cases where preemption did not occur. This case needs to be handled because otherwise the final context switch away from the exiting task will incorrectly behave as if task exit were instead a preemption of an RCU read-side critical section, and will therefore queue the exiting task. The exiting task will have exited, and thus won't ever execute rcu_read_unlock(), which means that it will remain queued forever, blocking all subsequent grace periods, and eventually resulting in OOM. Although this is arguably better than letting grace periods proceed and having a later rcu_read_unlock() access the now-freed task structure that once belonged to the exiting tasks, it would obviously be better to correctly handle this case. This commit therefore sets ->rcu_read_lock_nesting to 1 in that case, so that the subsequence call to __rcu_read_unlock() causes the exiting task to exit its dangling RCU read-side critical section. Note that deferred quiescent states need not be considered. The reason is that removing the task from the ->blkd_tasks[] list in the call to rcu_preempt_deferred_qs() handles the per-task component of any deferred quiescent state, and all other components of any deferred quiescent state are associated with the CPU, which isn't going anywhere until some later CPU-hotplug operation, which will report any remaining deferred quiescent states from within the rcu_report_dead() function. Note also that negative values of ->rcu_read_lock_nesting need not be considered. First, these won't show up in exit_rcu() unless there is a serious bug in RCU, and second, setting ->rcu_read_lock_nesting sets the state so that the RCU read-side critical section will be exited normally. Again, this code has no effect unless there has been some prior bug that prevents a task from leaving an RCU read-side critical section before exiting. Furthermore, there have been no reports of the bug fixed by this commit appearing in production. This commit is therefore absolutely -not- recommended for backporting to -stable.

When there are no callbacks pending on an idle system, I noticed that RCU softirq is continuously firing. During this the cpu_no_qs is set to false, and core_needs_qs is set to true indefinitely. This causes rcu_process_callbacks to be repeatedly called, even though the node corresponding to the CPU has that CPU's mask bit cleared and the system is idle. I believe the race is when such mask clearing is done during idle CPU scan of the quiescent state forcing stage in the kthread instead of the softirq. Since the rnp mask is cleared, but the flags on the CPU's rdp are not cleared, the CPU thinks it still needs to report to core RCU. Cure this by clearing the core_needs_qs flag when the CPU detects that its node is already updated which will avoid the unwanted softirq raises to the benefit of real-time systems. Test: Ran rcutorture for various tree RCU configs. Signed-off-by: Joel Fernandes (Google) <joel@joelfernandes.org> Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.ibm.com>

The rcu_pm_notify() function refuses to switch to/from expedited grace periods on systems with more than 256 CPUs due to the serialized initialization of expedited grace periods. However, expedited grace periods are now initialized in parallel, removing this concern. This commit therefore removes the checks from rcu_pm_notify(), so that expedited grace periods are used unconditionally during suspend/resume and hibernate/wake operations. As always, real-time workloads wishing to completely avoid expedited grace periods can use the rcupdate.rcu_normal= kernel parameter. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.ibm.com>

During a simple no-op (nothing changed) build I saw 39 invocations of the C compiler with the argument "-print-file-name=include". We don't need to call the C compiler 39 times for this--one time will suffice. Let's change NOSTDINC_FLAGS to a simply expanded variable to avoid this since there doesn't appear to be any reason it should be recursively expanded. On my build this shaved ~400 ms off my "no-op" build. Note that the recursive expansion seems to date back to the (really old) commit e8f5bdb0 ("[PATCH] Makefile include path ordering"). It's a little unclear to me if the point of that patch was to switch the variable to be recursively expanded (which it did) or to avoid directly assigning to NOSTDINC_FLAGS (AKA to switch to +=) because someone else (out of tree?) was setting it. I presume later since if the only goal was to switch to recursive expansion the patch would have just removed the ":".

The of_find_device_by_node() takes a reference to the underlying device structure, we should release that reference. The implementation of this semantic code search is: In a function, for a local variable returned by calling of_find_device_by_node(), a, if it is released by a function such as put_device()/of_dev_put()/platform_device_put() after the last use, it is considered that there is no reference leak; b, if it is passed back to the caller via dev_get_drvdata()/platform_get_drvdata()/get_device(), etc., the reference will be released in other functions, and the current function also considers that there is no reference leak; c, for the rest of the situation, the current function should release the reference by calling put_device, this code search will report the corresponding error message. By using this semantic code search, we have found some object reference leaks, such as: commit 11907e9d ("ASoC: fsl-asoc-card: fix object reference leaks in fsl_asoc_card_probe") commit a12085d1 ("mtd: rawnand: atmel: fix possible object reference leak") commit 11493f26 ("mtd: rawnand: jz4780: fix possible object reference leak") There are still dozens of reference leaks in the current kernel code. Further, for the case of b, the object returned to other functions may also have a reference leak, we will continue to develop other cocci scripts to further check the reference leak.

Pull pidfd system call from Christian Brauner: "This introduces the ability to use file descriptors from /proc/<pid>/ as stable handles on struct pid. Even if a pid is recycled the handle will not change. For a start these fds can be used to send signals to the processes they refer to. With the ability to use /proc/<pid> fds as stable handles on struct pid we can fix a long-standing issue where after a process has exited its pid can be reused by another process. If a caller sends a signal to a reused pid it will end up signaling the wrong process. With this patchset we enable a variety of use cases. One obvious example is that we can now safely delegate an important part of process management - sending signals - to processes other than the parent of a given process by sending file descriptors around via scm rights and not fearing that the given process will have been recycled in the meantime. It also allows for easy testing whether a given process is still alive or not by sending signal 0 to a pidfd which is quite handy. There has been some interest in this feature e.g. from systems management (systemd, glibc) and container managers. I have requested and gotten comments from glibc to make sure that this syscall is suitable for their needs as well. In the future I expect it to take on most other pid-based signal syscalls. But such features are left for the future once they are needed. This has been sitting in linux-next for quite a while and has not caused any issues. It comes with selftests which verify basic functionality and also test that a recycled pid cannot be signaled via a pidfd. Jon has written about a prior version of this patchset. It should cover the basic functionality since not a lot has changed since then: https://lwn.net/Articles/773459/ The commit message for the syscall itself is extensively documenting the syscall, including it's functionality and extensibility" * tag 'pidfd-v5.1-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux: selftests: add tests for pidfd_send_signal() signal: add pidfd_send_signal() syscall

Pull device-dax updates from Dan Williams: "New device-dax infrastructure to allow persistent memory and other "reserved" / performance differentiated memories, to be assigned to the core-mm as "System RAM". Some users want to use persistent memory as additional volatile memory. They are willing to cope with potential performance differences, for example between DRAM and 3D Xpoint, and want to use typical Linux memory management apis rather than a userspace memory allocator layered over an mmap() of a dax file. The administration model is to decide how much Persistent Memory (pmem) to use as System RAM, create a device-dax-mode namespace of that size, and then assign it to the core-mm. The rationale for device-dax is that it is a generic memory-mapping driver that can be layered over any "special purpose" memory, not just pmem. On subsequent boots udev rules can be used to restore the memory assignment. One implication of using pmem as RAM is that mlock() no longer keeps data off persistent media. For this reason it is recommended to enable NVDIMM Security (previously merged for 5.0) to encrypt pmem contents at rest. We considered making this recommendation an actively enforced requirement, but in the end decided to leave it as a distribution / administrator policy to allow for emulation and test environments that lack security capable NVDIMMs. Summary: - Replace the /sys/class/dax device model with /sys/bus/dax, and include a compat driver so distributions can opt-in to the new ABI. - Allow for an alternative driver for the device-dax address-range - Introduce the 'kmem' driver to hotplug / assign a device-dax address-range to the core-mm. - Arrange for the device-dax target-node to be onlined so that the newly added memory range can be uniquely referenced by numa apis" NOTE! I'm not entirely happy with the whole "PMEM as RAM" model because we currently have special - and very annoying rules in the kernel about accessing PMEM only with the "MC safe" accessors, because machine checks inside the regular repeat string copy functions can be fatal in some (not described) circumstances. And apparently the PMEM modules can cause that a lot more than regular RAM. The argument is that this happens because PMEM doesn't necessarily get scrubbed at boot like RAM does, but that is planned to be added for the user space tooling. Quoting Dan from another email: "The exposure can be reduced in the volatile-RAM case by scanning for and clearing errors before it is onlined as RAM. The userspace tooling for that can be in place before v5.1-final. There's also runtime notifications of errors via acpi_nfit_uc_error_notify() from background scrubbers on the DIMM devices. With that mechanism the kernel could proactively clear newly discovered poison in the volatile case, but that would be additional development more suitable for v5.2. I understand the concern, and the need to highlight this issue by tapping the brakes on feature development, but I don't see PMEM as RAM making the situation worse when the exposure is also there via DAX in the PMEM case. Volatile-RAM is arguably a safer use case since it's possible to repair pages where the persistent case needs active application coordination" * tag 'devdax-for-5.1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: device-dax: "Hotplug" persistent memory for use like normal RAM mm/resource: Let walk_system_ram_range() search child resources mm/memory-hotplug: Allow memory resources to be children mm/resource: Move HMM pr_debug() deeper into resource code mm/resource: Return real error codes from walk failures device-dax: Add a 'modalias' attribute to DAX 'bus' devices device-dax: Add a 'target_node' attribute device-dax: Auto-bind device after successful new_id acpi/nfit, device-dax: Identify differentiated memory with a unique numa-node device-dax: Add /sys/class/dax backwards compatibility device-dax: Add support for a dax override driver device-dax: Move resource pinning+mapping into the common driver device-dax: Introduce bus + driver model device-dax: Start defining a dax bus model device-dax: Remove multi-resource infrastructure device-dax: Kill dax_region base device-dax: Kill dax_region ida

Pull ARM updates from Russell King: - An improvement from Ard Biesheuvel, who noted that the identity map setup was taking a long time due to flush_cache_louis(). - Update a comment about dma_ops from Wolfram Sang. - Remove use of "-p" with ld, where this flag has been a no-op since 2004. - Remove the printing of the virtual memory layout, which is no longer useful since we hide pointers. - Correct SCU help text. - Remove legacy TWD registration method. - Add pgprot_device() implementation for mapping PCI sysfs resource files. - Initialise PFN limits earlier for kmemleak. - Fix argument count to match macro definition (affects clang builds) - Use unified assembler language almost everywhere for clang, and other clang improvements (from Stefan Agner, Nathan Chancellor). - Support security extension for noMMU and other noMMU cleanups (from Vladimir Murzin). - Remove unnecessary SMP bringup code (which was incorrectly copy'n' pasted from the ARM platform implementations) and remove it from the arch code to discourge further copys of it appearing. - Add Cortex A9 erratum preventing kexec working on some SoCs. - AMBA bus identification updates from Mike Leach. - More use of raw spinlocks to avoid -RT kernel issues (from Yang Shi and Sebastian Andrzej Siewior). - MCPM hyp/svc mode mismatch fixes from Marek Szyprowski. * tag 'for-linus' of git://git.armlinux.org.uk/~rmk/linux-arm: (32 commits) ARM: 8849/1: NOMMU: Fix encodings for PMSAv8's PRBAR4/PRLAR4 ARM: 8848/1: virt: Align GIC version check with arm64 counterpart ARM: 8847/1: pm: fix HYP/SVC mode mismatch when MCPM is used ARM: 8845/1: use unified assembler in c files ARM: 8844/1: use unified assembler in assembly files ARM: 8843/1: use unified assembler in headers ARM: 8841/1: use unified assembler in macros ARM: 8840/1: use a raw_spinlock_t in unwind ARM: 8839/1: kprobe: make patch_lock a raw_spinlock_t ARM: 8837/1: coresight: etmv4: Update ID register table to add UCI support ARM: 8836/1: drivers: amba: Update component matching to use the CoreSight UCI values.
