Use KUnit framework to make tests more easily integrable with CIs. Even though these tests are not yet properly written as unit tests this change should help in debugging. Also remove kernel messages (i.e. through pr_info) as KUnit handles all debugging output and let it handle module init and exit details.

Split up test_hash_init so that it calls each test more explicitly insofar it is possible without rewriting the entire file. This aims at improving readability. Split tests performed on string_or as they don't interfere with those performed in hash_or. Also separate pr_info calls about skipped tests as they're not part of the tests themselves, but only warn about (un)defined arch-specific hash functions.

Patch series "test_hash.c: refactor into KUnit", v3. We refactored the lib/test_hash.c file into KUnit as part of the student group LKCAMP [1] introductory hackathon for kernel development. This test was pointed to our group by Daniel Latypov [2], so its full conversion into a pure KUnit test was our goal in this patch series, but we ran into many problems relating to it not being split as unit tests, which complicated matters a bit, as the reasoning behind the original tests is quite cryptic for those unfamiliar with hash implementations. Some interesting developments we'd like to highlight are: - In patch 1/5 we noticed that there was an unused define directive that could be removed. - In patch 4/5 we noticed how stringhash and hash tests are all under the lib/test_hash.c file, which might cause some confusion, and we also broke those kernel config entries up. Overall KUnit developments have been made in the other patches in this series: In patches 2/5, 3/5 and 5/5 we refactored the lib/test_hash.c file so as to make it more compatible with the KUnit style, whilst preserving the original idea of the maintainer who designed it (i.e. George Spelvin), which might be undesirable for unit tests, but we assume it is enough for a first patch. This patch (of 5): Currently, there exist hash_32() and __hash_32() functions, which were introduced in a patch [1] targeting architecture specific optimizations. These functions can be overridden on a per-architecture basis to achieve such optimizations. They must set their corresponding define directive (HAVE_ARCH_HASH_32 and HAVE_ARCH__HASH_32, respectively) so that header files can deal with these overrides properly. As the supported 32-bit architectures that have their own hash function implementation (i.e. m68k, Microblaze, H8/300, pa-risc) have only been making use of the (more general) __hash_32() function (which only lacks a right shift operation when compared to the hash_32() function), remove the define directive corresponding to the arch-specific hash_32() implementation.

Currently, the entry->prev and entry->next are considered to be valid as long as they are not LIST_POISON{1|2}. However, the memory may be corrupted. The prev->next is invalid probably because 'prev' is invalid, not because prev->next's content is illegal. Unfortunately, the printk and its subfunctions will modify the registers that hold the 'prev' and 'next', and we don't see this valuable information in the BUG context. So print the contents of 'entry->prev' and 'entry->next'. Here's an example: list_del corruption. prev->next should be c0ecbf74, but was c08410dc kernel BUG at lib/list_debug.c:53! ... ...

Later, I carefully analyzed the RCU code and the disassembly code. The error occurred when deleting a node from the list rcu_state.gp_wq. The System.map shows that the address of rcu_state is c0840c00. Then I use gdb to obtain the offset of rcu_state.gp_wq.task_list. (gdb) p &((struct rcu_state *)0)->gp_wq.task_list $1 = (struct list_head *) 0x4dc Again: list_del corruption. prev->next should be c0ecbf74, but was c08410dc c08410dc = c0840c00 + 0x4dc = &rcu_state.gp_wq.task_list Because rcu_state.gp_wq has at most one node, so I can guess that "prev = &rcu_state.gp_wq.task_list". But for other scenes, maybe I wasn't so lucky, I cannot figure out the value of 'prev'.

PRIO_PGRP needs the tasklist_lock mainly to serialize vs setpgid(2), to protect against any concurrent change_pid(PIDTYPE_PGID) that can move the task from one hlist to another while iterating. However, the remaining can only rely only on RCU: PRIO_PROCESS only does the task lookup and never iterates over tasklist and we already have an rcu-aware stable pointer. PRIO_USER is already racy vs setuid(2) so with creds being rcu protected, we can end up seeing stale data. When removing the tasklist_lock there can be a race with (i) fork but this is benign as the child's nice is inherited and the new task is not observable by the user yet either, hence the return semantics do not differ. And (ii) a race with exit, which is a small window and can cause us to miss a task which was removed from the list and it had the highest nice. Similarly change the buggy do_each_thread/while_each_thread combo in PRIO_USER for the rcu-safe for_each_process_thread flavor, which doesn't make use of next_thread/p->thread_group.

When I was implementing a new per-cpu kthread cfs_migration, I found the comm of it "cfs_migration/%u" is truncated due to the limitation of TASK_COMM_LEN. For example, the comm of the percpu thread on CPU10~19 all have the same name "cfs_migration/1", which will confuse the user. This issue is not critical, because we can get the corresponding CPU from the task's Cpus_allowed. But for kthreads corresponding to other hardware devices, it is not easy to get the detailed device info from task comm, for example, jbd2/nvme0n1p2- xfs-reclaim/sdf Currently there are so many truncated kthreads: rcu_tasks_kthre rcu_tasks_rude_ rcu_tasks_trace poll_mpt3sas0_s ext4-rsv-conver xfs-reclaim/sd{a, b, c, ...} xfs-blockgc/sd{a, b, c, ...} xfs-inodegc/sd{a, b, c, ...} audit_send_repl ecryptfs-kthrea vfio-irqfd-clea jbd2/nvme0n1p2- ... We can shorten these names to work around this problem, but it may be not applied to all of the truncated kthreads. Take 'jbd2/nvme0n1p2-' for example, it is a nice name, and it is not a good idea to shorten it. One possible way to fix this issue is extending the task comm size, but as task->comm is used in lots of places, that may cause some potential buffer overflows. Another more conservative approach is introducing a new pointer to store kthread's full name if it is truncated, which won't introduce too much overhead as it is in the non-critical path. Finally we make a dicision to use the second approach. See also the discussions in this thread: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20211101060419.4682-1-laoar.shao@gmail.com/ After this change, the full name of these truncated kthreads will be displayed via /proc/[pid]/comm: rcu_tasks_kthread rcu_tasks_rude_kthread rcu_tasks_trace_kthread poll_mpt3sas0_statu ext4-rsv-conversion xfs-reclaim/sdf1 xfs-blockgc/sdf1 xfs-inodegc/sdf1 audit_send_reply ecryptfs-kthread vfio-irqfd-cleanup jbd2/nvme0n1p2-8 Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20211120112850.46047-1-laoar.shao@gmail.comSigned-off-by:Yafang Shao <laoar.shao@gmail.com> Reviewed-by:

As the sched:sched_switch tracepoint args are derived from the kernel, we'd better make it same with the kernel. So the macro TASK_COMM_LEN is converted to type enum, then all the BPF programs can get it through BTF. The BPF program which wants to use TASK_COMM_LEN should include the header vmlinux.h. Regarding the test_stacktrace_map and test_tracepoint, as the type defined in linux/bpf.h are also defined in vmlinux.h, so we don't need to include linux/bpf.h again.

Patch series "task comm cleanups", v2. This patchset is part of the patchset "extend task comm from 16 to 24"[1]. Now we have different opinion that dynamically allocates memory to store kthread's long name into a separate pointer, so I decide to take the useful cleanups apart from the original patchset and send it separately[2]. These useful cleanups can make the usage around task comm less error-prone. Furthermore, it will be useful if we want to extend task comm in the future.

To make it be robust against full tsk->comm copies that got noticed in other places, we should make sure it's zero padded.

This should fix clang -Werror builds failing due to errors like this: drivers/platform/x86/thinkpad_acpi.c:918:30: error: unused variable 'dispatch_proc_ops' [-Werror,-Wunused-const-variable] Fixing this in include/linux/proc_fs.h should ensure that the same issue is also fixed in any other drivers hitting the same -Werror issue.

In commit cc5f2704 ("proc/vmcore: convert oldmem_pfn_is_ram callback to more generic vmcore callbacks"), we added detection of surprise vmcore_cb unregistration after the vmcore was already opened. Once detected, we warn the user and simulate reading zeroes from that point on when accessing the vmcore. The basic reason was that unexpected unregistration, for example, by manually unbinding a driver from a device after opening the vmcore, is not supported and could result in reading oldmem the vmcore_cb would have actually prohibited while registered. However, something like that can similarly be trigger by a user that's really looking for trouble simply by unbinding the relevant driver before opening the vmcore -- or by disallowing loading the driver in the first place. So it's actually of limited help. Currently, unregistration can only be triggered via virtio-mem when manually unbinding the driver from the device inside the VM; there is no way to trigger it from the hypervisor, as hypervisors don't allow for unplugging virtio-mem devices -- ripping out system RAM from a VM without coordination with the guest is usually not a good idea. The important part is that unbinding the driver and unregistering the vmcore_cb while concurrently reading the vmcore won't crash the system, and that is handled by the rwsem. To make the mechanism more future proof, let's remove the "read zero" part, but leave the warning in place. For example, we could have a future driver (like virtio-balloon) that will contact the hypervisor to figure out if we already populated a page for a given PFN. Hotunplugging such a device and consequently unregistering the vmcore_cb could be triggered from the hypervisor without harming the system even while kdump is running. In that case, we don't want to silently end up with a vmcore that contains wrong data, because the user inside the VM might be unaware of the hypervisor action and might easily miss the warning in the log.

With NEED_PER_CPU_PAGE_FIRST_CHUNK enabled, we need a function to populate pte, this patch adds a generic pcpu populate pte function, pcpu_populate_pte(), which is marked __weak and used on most architectures, but it is overridden on x86, which has its own implementation.

Patch series "mm: percpu: Cleanup percpu first chunk function". When supporting page mapping percpu first chunk allocator on arm64, we found there are lots of duplicated codes in percpu embed/page first chunk allocator. This patchset is aimed to cleanup them and should no function change. The currently supported status about 'embed' and 'page' in Archs shows below, embed: NEED_PER_CPU_PAGE_FIRST_CHUNK page: NEED_PER_CPU_EMBED_FIRST_CHUNK embed page ------------------------ arm64 Y Y mips Y N powerpc Y Y riscv Y N sparc Y Y x86 Y Y ------------------------ There are two interfaces about percpu first chunk allocator, extern int __init pcpu_embed_first_chunk(size_t reserved_size, size_t dyn_size, size_t atom_size, pcpu_fc_cpu_distance_fn_t cpu_distance_fn, - pcpu_fc_alloc_fn_t alloc_fn, - pcpu_fc_free_fn_t free_fn); + pcpu_fc_cpu_to_node_fn_t cpu_to_nd_fn); extern int __init pcpu_page_first_chunk(size_t reserved_size, - pcpu_fc_alloc_fn_t alloc_fn, - pcpu_fc_free_fn_t free_fn, - pcpu_fc_populate_pte_fn_t populate_pte_fn); + pcpu_fc_cpu_to_node_fn_t cpu_to_nd_fn); The pcpu_fc_alloc_fn_t/pcpu_fc_free_fn_t is killed, we provide generic pcpu_fc_alloc() and pcpu_fc_free() function, which are called in the pcpu_embed/page_first_chunk(). 1) For pcpu_embed_first_chunk(), pcpu_fc_cpu_to_node_fn_t is needed to be provided when archs supported NUMA. 2) For pcpu_page_first_chunk(), the pcpu_fc_populate_pte_fn_t is killed too, a generic pcpu_populate_pte() which marked '__weak' is provided, if you need a different function to populate pte on the arch(like x86), please provide its own implementation. [1] https://github.com/kevin78/linux.git percpu-cleanup This patch (of 4): The HAVE_SETUP_PER_CPU_AREA/NEED_PER_CPU_EMBED_FIRST_CHUNK/ NEED_PER_CPU_PAGE_FIRST_CHUNK/USE_PERCPU_NUMA_NODE_ID configs, which have duplicate definitions on platforms that subscribe it. Move them into mm, drop these redundant definitions and instead just select it on applicable platforms.

Since irq request is the last thing in the driver probe, it happens later than the input device registration. This means that there is a small time window where if the open method is called the driver will attempt to enable not yet available irq. Fix that by moving the irq request before the input device registration. Reviewed-by:
