If a library wants to get information from auxv (for instance,
AT_HWCAP/AT_HWCAP2), it has a few options, none of them perfectly reliable
or ideal:
- Be main or the pre-main startup code, and grub through the stack above
main. Doesn't work for a library.
- Call libc getauxval. Not ideal for libraries that are trying to be
libc-independent and/or don't otherwise require anything from other
libraries.
- Open and read /proc/self/auxv. Doesn't work for libraries that may run
in arbitrarily constrained environments that may not have /proc
mounted (e.g. libraries that might be used by an init program or a
container setup tool).
- Assume you're on the main thread and still on the original stack, and
try to walk the stack upwards, hoping to find auxv. Extremely bad
idea.
- Ask the caller to pass auxv in for you. Not ideal for a user-friendly
library, and then your caller may have the same problem.
Add a prctl that copies current->mm->saved_auxv to a userspace buffer.

Patch series "memcg: avoid flushing stats atomically where possible", v3.
rstat flushing is an expensive operation that scales with the number of
cpus and the number of cgroups in the system. The purpose of this series
is to minimize the contexts where we flush stats atomically.
Patches 1 and 2 are cleanups requested during reviews of prior versions of
this series.
Patch 3 makes sure we never try to flush from within an irq context.
Patches 4 to 7 introduce separate variants of mem_cgroup_flush_stats() for
atomic and non-atomic flushing, and make sure we only flush the stats
atomically when necessary.
Patch 8 is a slightly tangential optimization that limits the work done by
rstat flushing in some scenarios.
This patch (of 8):
cgroup_rstat_flush_irqsafe() can be a confusing name. It may read as
"irqs are disabled throughout", which is what the current implementation
does (currently under discussion [1]), but is not the intention. The
intention is that this function is safe to call from atomic contexts.
Name it as such.

commit f1a7941243c1 ("mm: convert mm's rss stats into percpu_counter")
introduces a memory leak by missing a call to destroy_context() when a
percpu_counter fails to allocate.
Before introducing the per-cpu counter allocations, init_new_context() was
the last call that could fail in mm_init(), and thus there was no need to
ever invoke destroy_context() in the error paths. Adding the following
percpu counter allocations adds error paths after init_new_context(),
which means its associated destroy_context() needs to be called when
percpu counters fail to allocate.

Linux Security Modules (LSMs) that implement the "capable" hook will
usually emit an access denial message to the audit log whenever they
"block" the current task from using the given capability based on their
security policy.
The occurrence of a denial is used as an indication that the given task
has attempted an operation that requires the given access permission, so
the callers of functions that perform LSM permission checks must take care
to avoid calling them too early (before it is decided if the permission is
actually needed to perform the requested operation).
The __sys_setres[ug]id() functions violate this convention by first
calling ns_capable_setid() and only then checking if the operation
requires the capability or not. It means that any caller that has the
capability granted by DAC (task's capability set) but not by MAC (LSMs)
will generate a "denied" audit record, even if is doing an operation for
which the capability is not required.
Fix this by reordering the checks such that ns_capable_setid() is checked
last and -EPERM is returned immediately if it returns false.
While there, also do two small optimizations:
* move the capability check before prepare_creds() and
* bail out early in case of a no-op.

before: last 6 bits of PID is used as index to store information about
tasks accessing VMA's.
after: hash_32 is used to take of cases where tasks are created over a
period of time, and thus improve collision probability.
Result:
The patch series overall improves autonuma cost.
Kernbench around more than 5% improvement and system time in mmtest
autonuma showed more than 80% improvement

This helps to ensure that only recently accessed PIDs scan the VMAs.
Current implementation: (idea supported by PeterZ)
1. Accessing PID information is maintained in two windows.
access_pids[1] being newest.
2. Reset old access PID info i.e. access_pid[0] every (4 *
sysctl_numa_balancing_scan_delay) interval after initial scan delay
period expires.
The above interval seemed to be experimentally optimum since it avoids
frequent reset of access info as well as helps clearing the old access
info regularly. The reset logic is implemented in scan path.

During Numa scanning make sure only relevant vmas of the tasks are
scanned.
Before:
All the tasks of a process participate in scanning the vma even if they
do not access vma in it's lifespan.
Now:
Except cases of first few unconditional scans, if a process do
not touch vma (exluding false positive cases of PID collisions)
tasks no longer scan all vma
Logic used:
1) 6 bits of PID used to mark active bit in vma numab status during
fault to remember PIDs accessing vma. (Thanks Mel)
2) Subsequently in scan path, vma scanning is skipped if current PID
had not accessed vma.
3) First two times we do allow unconditional scan to preserve earlier
behaviour of scanning.

Pach series "sched/numa: Enhance vma scanning", v3.
The patchset proposes one of the enhancements to numa vma scanning
suggested by Mel. This is continuation of [3].
Reposting the rebased patchset to akpm mm-unstable tree (March 1)
Existing mechanism of scan period involves, scan period derived from
per-thread stats. Process Adaptive autoNUMA [1] proposed to gather NUMA
fault stats at per-process level to capture aplication behaviour better.
During that course of discussion, Mel proposed several ideas to enhance
current numa balancing. One of the suggestion was below
Track what threads access a VMA. The suggestion was to use an unsigned
long pid_mask and use the lower bits to tag approximately what threads
access a VMA. Skip VMAs that did not trap a fault. This would be
approximate because of PID collisions but would reduce scanning of areas
the thread is not interested in. The above suggestion intends not to
penalize threads that has no interest in the vma, thus reduce scanning
overhead.
V3 changes are mostly based on PeterZ comments (details below in changes)
Summary of patchset:
Current patchset implements:
1. Delay the vma scanning logic for newly created VMA's so that
additional overhead of scanning is not incurred for short lived tasks
(implementation by Mel)
2. Store the information of tasks accessing VMA in 2 windows. It is
regularly cleared in (4*sysctl_numa_balancing_scan_delay) interval.
The above time is derived from experimenting (Suggested by PeterZ) to
balance between frequent clearing vs obsolete access data
3. hash_32 used to encode task index accessing VMA information
4. VMA's acess information is used to skip scanning for the tasks
which had not accessed VMA
Changes since V2:
patch1:
- Renaming of structure, macro to function,
- Add explanation to heuristics
- Adding more details from result (PeterZ)
Patch2:
- Usage of test and set bit (PeterZ)
- Move storing access PID info to numa_migrate_prep()
- Add a note on fainess among tasks allowed to scan
(PeterZ)
Patch3:
- Maintain two windows of access PID information
(PeterZ supported implementation and Gave idea to extend
to N if needed)
Patch4:
- Apply hash_32 function to track VMA accessing PIDs (PeterZ)
Changes since RFC V1:
- Include Mel's vma scan delay patch
- Change the accessing pid store logic (Thanks Mel)
- Fencing structure / code to NUMA_BALANCING (David, Mel)
- Adding clearing access PID logic (Mel)
- Descriptive change log ( Mike Rapoport)
Things to ponder over:
==========================================
- Improvement to clearing accessing PIDs logic (discussed in-detail in
patch3 itself (Done in this patchset by implementing 2 window history)
- Current scan period is not changed in the patchset, so we do see
frequent tries to scan. Relaxing scan period dynamically could improve
results further.

vma->lock being part of the vm_area_struct causes performance regression
during page faults because during contention its count and owner fields
are constantly updated and having other parts of vm_area_struct used
during page fault handling next to them causes constant cache line
bouncing. Fix that by moving the lock outside of the vm_area_struct.
All attempts to keep vma->lock inside vm_area_struct in a separate cache
line still produce performance regression especially on NUMA machines.
Smallest regression was achieved when lock is placed in the fourth cache
line but that bloats vm_area_struct to 256 bytes.
Considering performance and memory impact, separate lock looks like the
best option. It increases memory footprint of each VMA but that can be
optimized later if the new size causes issues. Note that after this
change vma_init() does not allocate or initialize vma->lock anymore. A
number of drivers allocate a pseudo VMA on the stack but they never use
the VMA's lock, therefore it does not need to be allocated. The future
drivers which might need the VMA lock should use
vm_area_alloc()/vm_area_free() to allocate the VMA.

call_rcu() can take a long time when callback offloading is enabled. Its
use in the vm_area_free can cause regressions in the exit path when
multiple VMAs are being freed.
Because exit_mmap() is called only after the last mm user drops its
refcount, the page fault handlers can't be racing with it. Any other
possible user like oom-reaper or process_mrelease are already synchronized
using mmap_lock. Therefore exit_mmap() can free VMAs directly, without
the use of call_rcu().
Expose __vm_area_free() and use it from exit_mmap() to avoid possible
call_rcu() floods and performance regressions caused by it.

Introduce per-VMA locking. The lock implementation relies on a per-vma
and per-mm sequence counters to note exclusive locking:
- read lock - (implemented by vma_start_read) requires the vma
(vm_lock_seq) and mm (mm_lock_seq) sequence counters to differ.
If they match then there must be a vma exclusive lock held somewhere.
- read unlock - (implemented by vma_end_read) is a trivial vma->lock
unlock.
- write lock - (vma_start_write) requires the mmap_lock to be held
exclusively and the current mm counter is assigned to the vma counter.
This will allow multiple vmas to be locked under a single mmap_lock
write lock (e.g. during vma merging). The vma counter is modified
under exclusive vma lock.
- write unlock - (vma_end_write_all) is a batch release of all vma
locks held. It doesn't pair with a specific vma_start_write! It is
done before exclusive mmap_lock is released by incrementing mm
sequence counter (mm_lock_seq).
- write downgrade - if the mmap_lock is downgraded to the read lock, all
vma write locks are released as well (effectivelly same as write
unlock).

Use the maple tree in RCU mode for VMA tracking.
The maple tree tracks the stack and is able to update the pivot
(lower/upper boundary) in-place to allow the page fault handler to write
to the tree while holding just the mmap read lock. This is safe as the
writes to the stack have a guard VMA which ensures there will always be a
NULL in the direction of the growth and thus will only update a pivot.
It is possible, but not recommended, to have VMAs that grow up/down
without guard VMAs. syzbot has constructed a testcase which sets up a VMA
to grow and consume the empty space. Overwriting the entire NULL entry
causes the tree to be altered in a way that is not safe for concurrent
readers; the readers may see a node being rewritten or one that does not
match the maple state they are using.
Enabling RCU mode allows the concurrent readers to see a stable node and
will return the expected result.

On big systems, the mm refcount can become highly contented when doing a
lot of context switching with threaded applications. user<->idle switch
is one of the important cases. Abandoning lazy tlb entirely slows this
switching down quite a bit in the common uncontended case, so that is not
viable.
Implement a scheme where lazy tlb mm references do not contribute to the
refcount, instead they get explicitly removed when the refcount reaches
zero.
The final mmdrop() sends IPIs to all CPUs in the mm_cpumask and they
switch away from this mm to init_mm if it was being used as the lazy tlb
mm. Enabling the shoot lazies option therefore requires that the arch
ensures that mm_cpumask contains all CPUs that could possibly be using mm.
A DEBUG_VM option IPIs every CPU in the system after this to ensure there
are no references remaining before the mm is freed.
Shootdown IPIs cost could be an issue, but they have not been observed to
be a serious problem with this scheme, because short-lived processes tend
not to migrate CPUs much, therefore they don't get much chance to leave
lazy tlb mm references on remote CPUs. There are a lot of options to
reduce them if necessary, described in comments.
The near-worst-case can be benchmarked with will-it-scale:
context_switch1_threads -t $(($(nproc) / 2))
This will create nproc threads (nproc / 2 switching pairs) all sharing the
same mm that spread over all CPUs so each CPU does thread->idle->thread
switching.
[ Rik came up with basically the same idea a few years ago, so credit
to him for that. ]

Add explicit _lazy_tlb annotated functions for lazy tlb mm refcounting.
This makes the lazy tlb mm references more obvious, and allows the
refcounting scheme to be modified in later changes. There is no
functional change with this patch.

Patch series "shoot lazy tlbs (lazy tlb refcount scalability
improvement)", v7.
This series improves scalability of context switching between user and
kernel threads on large systems with a threaded process spread across a
lot of CPUs.
Discussion of v6 here:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20230118080011.2258375-1-npiggin@gmail.com/
This patch (of 5):
Remove the special case avoiding refcounting when the mm to be used is the
same as the kernel thread's active (lazy tlb) mm. kthread_use_mm() should
not be such a performance critical path that this matters much. This
simplifies a later change to lazy tlb mm refcounting.

Pull xfs percpu counter fixes from Darrick Wong:
"We discovered a filesystem summary counter corruption problem that was
traced to cpu hot-remove racing with the call to percpu_counter_sum
that sets the free block count in the superblock when writing it to
disk. The root cause is that percpu_counter_sum doesn't cull from
dying cpus and hence misses those counter values if the cpu shutdown
hooks have not yet run to merge the values.
I'm hoping this is a fairly painless fix to the problem, since the
dying cpu mask should generally be empty. It's been in for-next for a
week without any complaints from the bots.

Nathan reported that when building with GNU as and a version of clang that
defaults to DWARF5, the assembler will complain with:
Error: non-constant .uleb128 is not supported
This is because `-g` defaults to the compiler debug info default. If the
assembler does not support some of the directives used, the above errors
occur. To fix, remove the explicit passing of `-g`.
All the test wants is that stack traces print valid function names, and
debug info is not required for that. (I currently cannot recall why I
added the explicit `-g`.)

We've seen recent AWS EKS (Kubernetes) user reports like the following:
After upgrading EKS nodes from v20230203 to v20230217 on our 1.24 EKS
clusters after a few days a number of the nodes have containers stuck
in ContainerCreating state or liveness/readiness probes reporting the
following error:
Readiness probe errored: rpc error: code = Unknown desc = failed to
exec in container: failed to start exec "4a11039f730203ffc003b7[...]":
OCI runtime exec failed: exec failed: unable to start container process:
unable to init seccomp: error loading seccomp filter into kernel:
error loading seccomp filter: errno 524: unknown
However, we had not been seeing this issue on previous AMIs and it only
started to occur on v20230217 (following the upgrade from kernel 5.4 to
5.10) with no other changes to the underlying cluster or workloads.
We tried the suggestions from that issue (sysctl net.core.bpf_jit_limit=452534528)
which helped to immediately allow containers to be created and probes to
execute but after approximately a day the issue returned and the value
returned by cat /proc/vmallocinfo | grep bpf_jit | awk '{s+=$2} END {print s}'
was steadily increasing.
I tested bpf tree to observe bpf_jit_charge_modmem, bpf_jit_uncharge_modmem
their sizes passed in as well as bpf_jit_current under tcpdump BPF filter,
seccomp BPF and native (e)BPF programs, and the behavior all looks sane
and expected, that is nothing "leaking" from an upstream perspective.
The bpf_jit_limit knob was originally added in order to avoid a situation
where unprivileged applications loading BPF programs (e.g. seccomp BPF
policies) consuming all the module memory space via BPF JIT such that loading
of kernel modules would be prevented. The default limit was defined back in
2018 and while good enough back then, we are generally seeing far more BPF
consumers today.
Adjust the limit for the BPF JIT pool from originally 1/4 to now 1/2 of the
module memory space to better reflect today's needs and avoid more users
running into potentially hard to debug issues.

RCU sometimes needs to perform a delayed wake up for specific kthreads
handling offloaded callbacks (RCU_NOCB). These wakeups are performed
by timers and upon entry to idle (also to guest and to user on nohz_full).
However the delayed wake-up on kernel exit is actually performed after
the thread flags are fetched towards the fast path check for work to
do on exit to user. As a result, and if there is no other pending work
to do upon that kernel exit, the current task will resume to userspace
with TIF_RESCHED set and the pending wake up ignored.
Fix this with fetching the thread flags _after_ the delayed RCU-nocb
kthread wake-up.

Commit 829c1651e9c4 ("sched/fair: sanitize vruntime of entity being placed")
fixes an overflowing bug, but ignore a case that se->exec_start is reset
after a migration.
For fixing this case, we delay the reset of se->exec_start after
placing the entity which se->exec_start to detect long sleeping task.
In order to take into account a possible divergence between the clock_task
of 2 rqs, we increase the threshold to around 104 days.

__enter_from_user_mode() is triggering noinstr warnings with
CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT due to its call of preempt_count_add() via
ct_state().
The preemption disable isn't needed as interrupts are already disabled.
And the context_tracking_enabled() check in ct_state() also isn't needed
as that's already being done by the CT_WARN_ON().
Just use __ct_state() instead.
Fixes the following warnings:

Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
- Fix setting affinity of hwlat threads in containers
Using sched_set_affinity() has unwanted side effects when being
called within a container. Use set_cpus_allowed_ptr() instead
- Fix per cpu thread management of the hwlat tracer:
- Do not start per_cpu threads if one is already running for the CPU
- When starting per_cpu threads, do not clear the kthread variable
as it may already be set to running per cpu threads
- Fix return value for test_gen_kprobe_cmd()
On error the return value was overwritten by being set to the result
of the call from kprobe_event_delete(), which would likely succeed,
and thus have the function return success
- Fix splice() reads from the trace file that was broken by commit
36e2c7421f02 ("fs: don't allow splice read/write without explicit
ops")
- Remove obsolete and confusing comment in ring_buffer.c

There is a problem with the behavior of hwlat in a container,
resulting in incorrect output. A warning message is generated:
"cpumask changed while in round-robin mode, switching to mode none",
and the tracing_cpumask is ignored. This issue arises because
the kernel thread, hwlatd, is not a part of the container, and
the function sched_setaffinity is unable to locate it using its PID.
Additionally, the task_struct of hwlatd is already known.
Ultimately, the function set_cpus_allowed_ptr achieves
the same outcome as sched_setaffinity, but employs task_struct
instead of PID.
Test case:
# cd /sys/kernel/tracing
# echo 0 > tracing_on
# echo round-robin > hwlat_detector/mode
# echo hwlat > current_tracer
# unshare --fork --pid bash -c 'echo 1 > tracing_on'
# dmesg -c

The comment refers to mm/slob.c which is being removed. It comes from

according to Steven the borrowed code was a page mapcount and mapping
reset, which was later removed by commit e4c2ce82ca27 ("ring_buffer:

remove it.

Since the commit 36e2c7421f02 ("fs: don't allow splice read/write
without explicit ops") is applied to the kernel, splice() and
sendfile() calls on the trace file (/sys/kernel/debug/tracing
/trace) return EINVAL.
This patch restores these system calls by initializing splice_read
in file_operations of the trace file. This patch only enables such
functionalities for the read case.

The hwlatd tracer will end up starting multiple per-cpu threads with
the following script:
#!/bin/sh
cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
echo 0 > tracing_on
echo hwlat > current_tracer
echo per-cpu > hwlat_detector/mode
echo 100000 > hwlat_detector/width
echo 200000 > hwlat_detector/window
echo 1 > tracing_on
To fix the issue, check if the hwlatd thread for the cpu is already
running, before starting a new one. Along with the previous patch, this
avoids running multiple instances of the same CPU thread on the system.

Do not wipe the contents of the per-cpu kthread data when starting the
tracer, as this will completely forget about already running instances
and can later start new additional per-cpu threads.

Overwriting the error code with the deletion result may cause the
function to return 0 despite encountering an error. Commit b111545d26c0
("tracing: Remove the useless value assignment in
test_create_synth_event()") solves a similar issue by
returning the original error code, so this patch does the same.

Events should only be added to a groups rb tree if they have not been
removed from their context by list_del_event(). Since remove_on_exec
made it possible to call list_del_event() on individual events before
they are detached from their group, perf_group_detach() should check each
sibling's attach_state before calling add_event_to_groups() on it.

Time readers rely on perf_event_context->[time|timestamp|timeoffset] to get
accurate time_enabled and time_running for an event. The difference between
ctx->timestamp and ctx->time is the among of time when the context is not
enabled. __update_context_time(ctx, false) is used to increase timestamp,
but not time. Therefore, it should only be called in ctx_sched_in() when
EVENT_TIME was not enabled.

commit 267fb27352b6 ("perf: Reduce stack usage of perf_output_begin()")
use on-stack struct perf_sample_data of the caller function.
However, perf_event_bpf_output uses incorrect parameter to convert
small-sized data (struct perf_bpf_event) into large-sized data
(struct perf_sample_data), which causes memory overwriting occurs in
__perf_event_header__init_id.

The getaffinity() system call uses 'cpumask_size()' to decide how big
the CPU mask is - so far so good. It is indeed the allocation size of a
cpumask.
But the code also assumes that the whole allocation is initialized
without actually doing so itself. That's wrong, because we might have
fixed-size allocations (making copying and clearing more efficient), but
not all of it is then necessarily used if 'nr_cpu_ids' is smaller.
Having checked other users of 'cpumask_size()', they all seem to be ok,
either using it purely for the allocation size, or explicitly zeroing
the cpumask before using the size in bytes to copy it.
See for example the ublk_ctrl_get_queue_affinity() function that uses
the proper 'zalloc_cpumask_var()' to make sure that the whole mask is
cleared, whether the storage is on the stack or if it was an external
allocation.
Fix this by just zeroing the allocation before using it. Do the same
for the compat version of sched_getaffinity(), which had the same logic.
Also, for consistency, make sched_getaffinity() use 'cpumask_bits()' to
access the bits. For a cpumask_var_t, it ends up being a pointer to the
same data either way, but it's just a good idea to treat it like you
would a 'cpumask_t'. The compat case already did that.

Pull clone3 fix from Christian Brauner:
"A simple fix for the clone3() system call.
The CLONE_NEWTIME allows the creation of time namespaces. The flag
reuses a bit from the CSIGNAL bits that are used in the legacy clone()
system call to set the signal that gets sent to the parent after the
child exits.
The clone3() system call doesn't rely on CSIGNAL anymore as it uses a
dedicated .exit_signal field in struct clone_args. So we blocked all
CSIGNAL bits in clone3_args_valid(). When CLONE_NEWTIME was introduced
and reused a CSIGNAL bit we forgot to adapt clone3_args_valid()
causing CLONE_NEWTIME with clone3() to be rejected. Fix this"
