[ Upstream commit a430d99e349026d53e2557b7b22bd2ebd61fe12a ]

In /proc/schedstat, lb_hot_gained reports the number hot tasks pulled
during load balance. This value is incremented in can_migrate_task()
if the task is migratable and hot. After incrementing the value,
load balancer can still decide not to migrate this task leading to wrong
accounting. Fix this by incrementing stats when hot tasks are detached.
This issue only exists in detach_tasks() where we can decide to not
migrate hot task even if it is migratable. However, in detach_one_task(),
we migrate it unconditionally.

[Swapnil: Handled the case where nr_failed_migrations_hot was not accounted properly and wrote commit log]

[ Upstream commit 52b33d87b9197c51e8ffdc61873739d90dd0a16f ]

The commit d583d360a620 ("psi: Fix psi state corruption when schedule()
races with cgroup move") fixed a race problem by making cgroup_move_task()
use task-&gt;psi_flags instead of looking at the scheduler state.

We can extend task-&gt;psi_flags usage to CPU migration, which should be
a minor optimization for performance and code simplicity.

<title>freezer, sched: Report frozen tasks as 'D' instead of 'R'</title>

[ Upstream commit f718faf3940e95d5d34af9041f279f598396ab7d ]

Before commit:

  f5d39b020809 ("freezer,sched: Rewrite core freezer logic")

the frozen task stat was reported as 'D' in cgroup v1.

However, after rewriting the core freezer logic, the frozen task stat is
reported as 'R'. This is confusing, especially when a task with stat of
'S' is frozen.

This bug can be reproduced with these steps:

	$ cd /sys/fs/cgroup/freezer/
	$ mkdir test
	$ sleep 1000 &amp;
	[1] 739         // task whose stat is 'S'
	$ echo 739 &gt; test/cgroup.procs
	$ echo FROZEN &gt; test/freezer.state
	$ ps -aux | grep 739
	root     739  0.1  0.0   8376  1812 pts/0    R    10:56   0:00 sleep 1000

As shown above, a task whose stat is 'S' was changed to 'R' when it was
frozen.

To solve this regression, simply maintain the same reported state as
before the rewrite.

[ Upstream commit 0d6b35283bcf1a379cf20066544af8e6a6b16b46 ]

task_state_index() ignores uninteresting state flags (such as
TASK_FREEZABLE) for most states, but for TASK_IDLE and TASK_RTLOCK_WAIT
it does not.

So if a task is waiting TASK_IDLE|TASK_FREEZABLE it gets incorrectly
reported as TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE or "D".  (it is planned for nfsd to
change to use this state).

Fix this by only testing the interesting bits and not the irrelevant
bits in __task_state_index()

<title>cgroup/cpuset: Free DL BW in case can_attach() fails</title>

commit 2ef269ef1ac006acf974793d975539244d77b28f upstream.

cpuset_can_attach() can fail. Postpone DL BW allocation until all tasks
have been checked. DL BW is not allocated per-task but as a sum over
all DL tasks migrating.

If multiple controllers are attached to the cgroup next to the cpuset
controller a non-cpuset can_attach() can fail. In this case free DL BW
in cpuset_cancel_attach().

Finally, update cpuset DL task count (nr_deadline_tasks) only in
cpuset_attach().

commit 85989106feb734437e2d598b639991b9185a43a6 upstream.

While moving a set of tasks between exclusive cpusets,
cpuset_can_attach() -&gt; task_can_attach() calls dl_cpu_busy(..., p) for
DL BW overflow checking and per-task DL BW allocation on the destination
root_domain for the DL tasks in this set.

This approach has the issue of not freeing already allocated DL BW in
the following error cases:

(1) The set of tasks includes multiple DL tasks and DL BW overflow
    checking fails for one of the subsequent DL tasks.

(2) Another controller next to the cpuset controller which is attached
    to the same cgroup fails in its can_attach().

To address this problem rework dl_cpu_busy():

(1) Split it into dl_bw_check_overflow() &amp; dl_bw_alloc() and add a
    dedicated dl_bw_free().

(2) dl_bw_alloc() &amp; dl_bw_free() take a `u64 dl_bw` parameter instead of
    a `struct task_struct *p` used in dl_cpu_busy(). This allows to
    allocate DL BW for a set of tasks too rather than only for a single
    task.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:

 - Yu Zhao's Multi-Gen LRU patches are here. They've been under test in
   linux-next for a couple of months without, to my knowledge, any
   negative reports (or any positive ones, come to that).

 - Also the Maple Tree from Liam Howlett. An overlapping range-based
   tree for vmas. It it apparently slightly more efficient in its own
   right, but is mainly targeted at enabling work to reduce mmap_lock
   contention.

   Liam has identified a number of other tree users in the kernel which
   could be beneficially onverted to mapletrees.

   Yu Zhao has identified a hard-to-hit but "easy to fix" lockdep splat
   at [1]. This has yet to be addressed due to Liam's unfortunately
   timed vacation. He is now back and we'll get this fixed up.

 - Dmitry Vyukov introduces KMSAN: the Kernel Memory Sanitizer. It uses
   clang-generated instrumentation to detect used-unintialized bugs down
   to the single bit level.

   KMSAN keeps finding bugs. New ones, as well as the legacy ones.

 - Yang Shi adds a userspace mechanism (madvise) to induce a collapse of
   memory into THPs.

 - Zach O'Keefe has expanded Yang Shi's madvise(MADV_COLLAPSE) to
   support file/shmem-backed pages.

 - userfaultfd updates from Axel Rasmussen

 - zsmalloc cleanups from Alexey Romanov

 - cleanups from Miaohe Lin: vmscan, hugetlb_cgroup, hugetlb and
   memory-failure

 - Huang Ying adds enhancements to NUMA balancing memory tiering mode's
   page promotion, with a new way of detecting hot pages.

 - memcg updates from Shakeel Butt: charging optimizations and reduced
   memory consumption.

 - memcg cleanups from Kairui Song.

 - memcg fixes and cleanups from Johannes Weiner.

 - Vishal Moola provides more folio conversions

 - Zhang Yi removed ll_rw_block() :(

 - migration enhancements from Peter Xu

 - migration error-path bugfixes from Huang Ying

 - Aneesh Kumar added ability for a device driver to alter the memory
   tiering promotion paths. For optimizations by PMEM drivers, DRM
   drivers, etc.

 - vma merging improvements from Jakub Matěn.

 - NUMA hinting cleanups from David Hildenbrand.

 - xu xin added aditional userspace visibility into KSM merging
   activity.

 - THP &amp; KSM code consolidation from Qi Zheng.

 - more folio work from Matthew Wilcox.

 - KASAN updates from Andrey Konovalov.

 - DAMON cleanups from Kaixu Xia.

 - DAMON work from SeongJae Park: fixes, cleanups.

 - hugetlb sysfs cleanups from Muchun Song.

 - Mike Kravetz fixes locking issues in hugetlbfs and in hugetlb core.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
 "Major changes:

   - Changed location of tracing repo from personal git repo to:
     git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace.git

   - Added Masami Hiramatsu as co-maintainer

   - Updated MAINTAINERS file to separate out FTRACE as it is more than
     just TRACING.

  Minor changes:

   - Added Mark Rutland as FTRACE reviewer

   - Updated user_events to make it on its way to remove the BROKEN tag.
     The changes should now be acceptable but will run it through a
     cycle and hopefully we can remove the BROKEN tag next release.

   - Added filtering to eprobes

   - Added a delta time to the benchmark trace event

   - Have the histogram and filter callbacks called via a switch
     statement instead of indirect functions. This speeds it up to avoid
     retpolines.

   - Add a way to wake up ring buffer waiters waiting for the ring
     buffer to fill up to its watermark.

   - New ioctl() on the trace_pipe_raw file to wake up ring buffer
     waiters.

   - Wake up waiters when the ring buffer is disabled. A reader may
     block when the ring buffer is disabled, but if it was blocked when
     the ring buffer is disabled it should then wake up.

  Fixes:

   - Allow splice to read partially read ring buffer pages. This fixes
     splice never moving forward.

   - Fix inverted compare that made the "shortest" ring buffer wait
     queue actually the longest.

   - Fix a race in the ring buffer between resetting a page when a
     writer goes to another page, and the reader.

   - Fix ftrace accounting bug when function hooks are added at boot up
     before the weak functions are set to "disabled".

   - Fix bug that freed a user allocated snapshot buffer when enabling a
     tracer.

   - Fix possible recursive locks in osnoise tracer

   - Fix recursive locking direct functions

   - Other minor clean ups and fixes"

* tag 'trace-v6.1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace: (44 commits)

  tracing/user_events: Move pages/locks into groups to prepare for namespaces
