      cgroup: use legacy_name for cgroup v1 disable info · 27a6c5c5
      Kamalesh Babulal authored
      cgroup v1 or v2 or both controller names can be passed as arguments to
      the 'cgroup_no_v1' kernel parameter, though most of the controller's
      names are the same for both cgroup versions. This can be confusing when
      both versions are used interchangeably, i.e., passing cgroup_no_v1=io
      
      $ sudo dmesg |grep cgroup
      ...
      cgroup: Disabling io control group subsystem in v1 mounts
      cgroup: Disabled controller 'blkio'
      
      Make it consistent across the pr_info()'s, by using ss->legacy_name, as
      the subsystem name, while printing the cgroup v1 controller disabling
      information in cgroup_init().

      cgroup/cpuset: Extend test_cpuset_prs.sh to test remote partition · 105f3fe9
      Waiman Long authored
      This patch extends the test_cpuset_prs.sh test script to support testing
      the new remote partition type and the new "cpuset.cpus.exclusive" and
      "cpuset.cpus.exclusive.effective" control files by adding new tests
      for them. In addition, the following changes are also made:
      
       1) Run the state transition tests directly under root to ease testing
          of remote partition and remove the unneeded test column.
       2) Add a column to for the list of expected isolated CPUs and compare
          it with the actual value by looking at the state of
          /sys/kernel/debug/sched/domains which will be available if the
          verbose flag is set.

      cgroup/cpuset: Check partition conflict with housekeeping setup · 4a74e418
      Waiman Long authored
      A user can pre-configure certain CPUs in an isolated state at boot time
      with the "isolcpus" kernel boot command line option. Those CPUs will
      not be in the housekeeping_cpumask(HK_TYPE_DOMAIN) and so will not
      be in any sched domains. This may conflict with the partition setup
      at runtime. Those boot time isolated CPUs should only be used in an
      isolated partition.
      
      This patch adds the necessary check and disallows partition setup if the
      check fails.

      cgroup/cpuset: Introduce remote partition · 181c8e09
      Waiman Long authored
      One can use "cpuset.cpus.partition" to create multiple scheduling domains
      or to produce a set of isolated CPUs where load balancing is disabled.
      The former use case is less common but the latter one can be frequently
      used especially for the Telco use cases like DPDK.
      
      The existing "isolated" partition can be used to produce isolated
      CPUs if the applications have full control of a system. However, in a
      containerized environment where all the apps are run in a container,
      it is hard to distribute out isolated CPUs from the root down given
      the unified hierarchy nature of cgroup v2.
      
      The container running on isolated CPUs can be several layers down from
      the root. The current partition feature requires that all the ancestors
      of a leaf partition root must be parititon roots themselves. This can
      be hard to configure.
      
      This patch introduces a new type of partition called remote partition.
      A remote partition is a partition whose parent is not a partition root
      itself and its CPUs are acquired directly from available CPUs in the
      top cpuset through a hierachical distribution of exclusive CPUs down
      from it.
      
      By contrast, the existing type of partitions where their parents have
      to be valid partition roots are referred to as local partitions as they
      have to be clustered around a parent partition root.
      
      Child local partitons can be created under a remote partition, but
      a remote partition cannot be created under a local partition. We may
      relax this limitation in the future if there are use cases for such
      configuration.
      
      Manually writing to the "cpuset.cpus.exclusive" file is not necessary
      when creating local partitions.  However, writing proper values to
      "cpuset.cpus.exclusive" down the cgroup hierarchy before the target
      remote partition root is mandatory for the creation of a remote
      partition.
      
      The value in "cpuset.cpus.exclusive.effective" may change if its
      "cpuset.cpus" or its parent's "cpuset.cpus.exclusive.effective" changes.

      cgroup/cpuset: Add cpuset.cpus.exclusive for v2 · e2ffe502
      Waiman Long authored
      This patch introduces a new writable "cpuset.cpus.exclusive" control
      file for v2 which will be added to non-root cpuset enabled cgroups. This new
      file enables user to set a smaller list of exclusive CPUs to be used in
      the creation of a cpuset partition.
      
      The value written to "cpuset.cpus.exclusive" may not be the effective
      value being used for the creation of cpuset partition, the effective
      value will show up in "cpuset.cpus.exclusive.effective" and it is
      subject to the constraint that it must also be a subset of cpus_allowed
      and parent's "cpuset.cpus.exclusive.effective".
      
      By writing to "cpuset.cpus.exclusive", "cpuset.cpus.exclusive.effective"
      may be set to a non-empty value even for cgroups that are not valid
      partition roots yet.

      cgroup/cpuset: Add cpuset.cpus.exclusive.effective for v2 · 0c7f293e
      Waiman Long authored
      The creation of a cpuset partition means dedicating a set of exclusive
      CPUs to be used by a particular partition only. These exclusive CPUs
      will not be used by any cpusets outside of that partition.
      
      To enable more flexibility in creating partitions, we need a way to
      distribute exclusive CPUs that can be used in new partitions. Currently,
      we have a subparts_cpus cpumask in struct cpuset that tracks only
      the exclusive CPUs used by all the sub-partitions underneath a given
      cpuset.
      
      This patch reworks the way we do exclusive CPUs tracking. The
      subparts_cpus is now renamed to effective_xcpus which tracks the
      exclusive CPUs allocated to a partition root including those that are
      further distributed down to sub-partitions underneath it. IOW, it also
      includes the exclusive CPUs used by the current partition root. Note
      that effective_xcpus can contain offline CPUs and it will always be a
      subset of cpus_allowed.
      
      The renamed effective_xcpus is now exposed via a new read-only
      "cpuset.cpus.exclusive.effective" control file. The new effective_xcpus
      cpumask should be set to cpus_allowed when a cpuset becomes a partition
      root and be cleared if it is not a valid partition root.
      
      In the next patch, we will enable write to another new control file to
      enable further control of what can get into effective_xcpus.

      cgroup/cpuset: Fix load balance state in update_partition_sd_lb() · 6fcdb018
      Waiman Long authored
      Commit a86ce680 ("cgroup/cpuset: Extract out CS_CPU_EXCLUSIVE
      & CS_SCHED_LOAD_BALANCE handling") adds a new helper function
      update_partition_sd_lb() to update the load balance state of the
      cpuset. However the new load balance is determined by just looking at
      whether the cpuset is a valid isolated partition root or not.  That is
      not enough if the cpuset is not a valid partition root but its parent
      is in the isolated state (load balance off). Update the function to
      set the new state to be the same as its parent in this case like what
      has been done in commit c8c92620 ("cgroup/cpuset: Inherit parent's
      load balance state in v2").

      vm: fix move_vma() memory accounting being off · 3cec5049
      Linus Torvalds authored
      Commit 408579cd ("mm: Update do_vmi_align_munmap() return
      semantics") seems to have updated one of the callers of do_vmi_munmap()
      incorrectly: it used to check for the error case (which didn't
      change: negative means error).
      
      That commit changed the check to the success case (which did change:
      before that commit, 0 was success, and 1 was "success and lock
      downgraded".  After the change, it's always 0 for success, and the lock
      will have been released if requested).
      
      This didn't change any actual VM behavior _except_ for memory accounting
      when 'VM_ACCOUNT' was set on the vma.  Which made the wrong return value
      test fairly subtle, since everything continues to work.
      
      Or rather - it continues to work but the "Committed memory" accounting
      goes all wonky (Committed_AS value in /proc/meminfo), and depending on
      settings that then causes problems much much later as the VM relies on
      bogus statistics for its heuristics.
      
      Revert that one line of the change back to the original logic.

      ata: libata-core: fetch sense data for successful commands iff CDL enabled · 5e35a9ac
      Niklas Cassel authored
      Currently, we fetch sense data for a _successful_ command if either:
      1) Command was NCQ and ATA_DFLAG_CDL_ENABLED flag set (flag
         ATA_DFLAG_CDL_ENABLED will only be set if the Successful NCQ command
         sense data supported bit is set); or
      2) Command was non-NCQ and regular sense data reporting is enabled.
      
      This means that case 2) will trigger for a non-NCQ command which has
      ATA_SENSE bit set, regardless if CDL is enabled or not.
      
      This decision was by design. If the device reports that it has sense data
      available, it makes sense to fetch that sense data, since the sk/asc/ascq
      could be important information regardless if CDL is enabled or not.
      
      However, the fetching of sense data for a successful command is done via
      ATA EH. Considering how intricate the ATA EH is, we really do not want to
      invoke ATA EH unless absolutely needed.
      
      Before commit 18bd7718 ("scsi: ata: libata: Handle completion of CDL
      commands using policy 0xD") we never fetched sense data for successful
      commands.
      
      In order to not invoke the ATA EH unless absolutely necessary, even if the
      device claims support for sense data reporting, only fetch sense data for
      successful (NCQ and non-NCQ commands) commands that are using CDL.
      
      [Damien] Modified the check to test the qc flag ATA_QCFLAG_HAS_CDL
      instead of the device support for CDL, which is implied for commands
      using CDL.

      ata: libata-eh: do not thaw the port twice in ata_eh_reset() · 7a3bc2b3
      Niklas Cassel authored
      commit 1e641060 ("libata: clear eh_info on reset completion") added
      a workaround that broke the retry mechanism in ATA EH.
      
      Tejun himself suggested to remove this workaround when it was identified
      to cause additional problems:
      https://lore.kernel.org/linux-ide/20110426135027.GI878@htj.dyndns.org/
      
      He even said:
      "Hmm... it seems I wasn't thinking straight when I added that work around."
      https://lore.kernel.org/linux-ide/20110426155229.GM878@htj.dyndns.org/
      
      While removing the workaround solved the issue, however, the workaround was
      kept to avoid "spurious hotplug events during reset", and instead another
      workaround was added on top of the existing workaround in commit
      8c56cacc ("libata: fix unexpectedly frozen port after ata_eh_reset()").
      
      Because these IRQs happened when the port was frozen, we know that they
      were actually a side effect of PxIS and IS.IPS(x) not being cleared before
      the COMRESET. This is now done in commit 94152042eaa9 ("ata: libahci: clear
      pending interrupt status"), so these workarounds can now be removed.
      
      Since commit 1e641060 ("libata: clear eh_info on reset completion") has
      now been reverted, the ATA EH retry mechanism is functional again, so there
      is once again no need to thaw the port more than once in ata_eh_reset().
      
      This reverts "the workaround on top of the workaround" introduced in commit
      8c56cacc ("libata: fix unexpectedly frozen port after ata_eh_reset()").

      ata: libata-eh: do not clear ATA_PFLAG_EH_PENDING in ata_eh_reset() · 80cc944e
      Niklas Cassel authored
      ata_scsi_port_error_handler() starts off by clearing ATA_PFLAG_EH_PENDING,
      before calling ap->ops->error_handler() (without holding the ap->lock).
      
      If an error IRQ is received while ap->ops->error_handler() is running,
      the irq handler will set ATA_PFLAG_EH_PENDING.
      
      Once ap->ops->error_handler() returns, ata_scsi_port_error_handler()
      checks if ATA_PFLAG_EH_PENDING is set, and if it is, another iteration
      of ATA EH is performed.
      
      The problem is that ATA_PFLAG_EH_PENDING is not only cleared by
      ata_scsi_port_error_handler(), it is also cleared by ata_eh_reset().
      
      ata_eh_reset() is called by ap->ops->error_handler(). This additional
      clearing done by ata_eh_reset() breaks the whole retry logic in
      ata_scsi_port_error_handler(). Thus, if an error IRQ is received while
      ap->ops->error_handler() is running, the port will currently remain
      frozen and will never get re-enabled.
      
      The additional clearing in ata_eh_reset() was introduced in commit
      1e641060 ("libata: clear eh_info on reset completion").
      
      Looking at the original error report:
      https://marc.info/?l=linux-ide&m=124765325828495&w=2
      
      We can see the following happening:
      [    1.074659] ata3: XXX port freeze
      [    1.074700] ata3: XXX hardresetting link, stopping engine
      [    1.074746] ata3: XXX flipping SControl
      
      [    1.411471] ata3: XXX irq_stat=400040 CONN|PHY
      [    1.411475] ata3: XXX port freeze
      
      [    1.420049] ata3: XXX starting engine
      [    1.420096] ata3: XXX rc=0, class=1
      [    1.420142] ata3: XXX clearing IRQs for thawing
      [    1.420188] ata3: XXX port thawed
      [    1.420234] ata3: SATA link up 3.0 Gbps (SStatus 123 SControl 300)
      
      We are not supposed to be able to receive an error IRQ while the port is
      frozen (PxIE is set to 0, i.e. all IRQs for the port are disabled).
      
      AHCI 1.3.1 section 10.7.1.1 First Tier (IS Register) states:
      "Each bit location can be thought of as reporting a '1' if the virtual
      "interrupt line" for that port is indicating it wishes to generate an
      interrupt. That is, if a port has one or more interrupt status bit set,
      and the enables for those status bits are set, then this bit shall be set."
      
      Additionally, AHCI state P:ComInit clearly shows that the state machine
      will only jump to P:ComInitSetIS (which sets IS.IPS(x) to '1'), if PxIE.PCE
      is set to '1'. In our case, PxIE is set to 0, so IS.IPS(x) won't get set.
      
      So IS.IPS(x) only gets set if PxIS and PxIE is set.
      
      AHCI 1.3.1 section 10.7.1.1 First Tier (IS Register) also states:
      "The bits in this register are read/write clear. It is set by the level of
      the virtual interrupt line being a set, and cleared by a write of '1' from
      the software."
      
      So if IS.IPS(x) is set, you need to explicitly clear it by writing a 1 to
      IS.IPS(x) for that port.
      
      Since PxIE is cleared, the only way to get an interrupt while the port is
      frozen, is if IS.IPS(x) is set, and the only way IS.IPS(x) can be set when
      the port is frozen, is if it was set before the port was frozen.
      
      However, since commit 737dd811 ("ata: libahci: clear pending interrupt
      status"), we clear both PxIS and IS.IPS(x) after freezing the port, but
      before the COMRESET, so the problem that commit 1e641060 ("libata:
      clear eh_info on reset completion") fixed can no longer happen.
      
      Thus, revert commit 1e641060 ("libata: clear eh_info on reset
      completion"), so that the retry logic in ata_scsi_port_error_handler()
      works once again. (The retry logic is still needed, since we can still
      get an error IRQ _after_ the port has been thawed, but before
      ata_scsi_port_error_handler() takes the ap->lock in order to check
      if ATA_PFLAG_EH_PENDING is set.)

        The user_events test was enabled by default in Linux 6.6-rc1. The
        following fixes are for bugs found since then:
      
         - add checks for dependencies and skip the test if they aren't met.
      
           The user_events test requires root access, and tracefs and
           user_events enabled. It leaves tracefs mounted and a fix is in
           progress for that missing piece.
      
         - create user_events test-specific Kconfig fragments
