[ Upstream commit 714e501e16cd473538b609b3e351b2cc9f7f09ed ]

An oops can be triggered in the scheduler when running qemu on arm64:

 Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address ffff000008effe40
 Internal error: Oops: 96000007 [#1] SMP
 Process migration/0 (pid: 12, stack limit = 0x00000000084e3736)
 pstate: 20000085 (nzCv daIf -PAN -UAO)
 pc : __ll_sc___cmpxchg_case_acq_4+0x4/0x20
 lr : move_queued_task.isra.21+0x124/0x298
 ...

__set_cpus_allowed_ptr() will choose an active dest_cpu in affinity mask to
migrage the process if process is not currently running on any one of the
CPUs specified in affinity mask. __set_cpus_allowed_ptr() will choose an
invalid dest_cpu (dest_cpu &gt;= nr_cpu_ids, 1024 in my virtual machine) if
CPUS in an affinity mask are deactived by cpu_down after cpumask_intersects
check. cpumask_test_cpu() of dest_cpu afterwards is overflown and may pass if
corresponding bit is coincidentally set. As a consequence, kernel will
access an invalid rq address associate with the invalid CPU in
migration_cpu_stop-&gt;__migrate_task-&gt;move_queued_task and the Oops occurs.

The reproduce the crash:

  1) A process repeatedly binds itself to cpu0 and cpu1 in turn by calling
  sched_setaffinity.

  2) A shell script repeatedly does "echo 0 &gt; /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online"
  and "echo 1 &gt; /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online" in turn.

  3) Oops appears if the invalid CPU is set in memory after tested cpumask.

[ Upstream commit fc0d77387cb5ae883fd774fc559e056a8dde024c ]

Fix a logic flaw in the way membarrier_register_private_expedited()
handles ready state checks for private expedited sync core and private
expedited registrations.

If a private expedited membarrier registration is first performed, and
then a private expedited sync_core registration is performed, the ready
state check will skip the second registration when it really should not.

[ Upstream commit 4adcdcea717cb2d8436bef00dd689aa5bc76f11b ]

When passing a equal or more then 32 bytes long string to psi_write(),
psi_write() copies 31 bytes to its buf and overwrites buf[30]
with '\0'. Which makes the input string 1 byte shorter than
it should be.

Fix it by copying sizeof(buf) bytes when nbytes &gt;= sizeof(buf).

This does not cause problems in normal use case like:
"some 500000 10000000" or "full 500000 10000000" because they
are less than 32 bytes in length.

	/* assuming nbytes == 35 */
	char buf[32];

	buf_size = min(nbytes, (sizeof(buf) - 1)); /* buf_size = 31 */
	if (copy_from_user(buf, user_buf, buf_size))
		return -EFAULT;

	buf[buf_size - 1] = '\0'; /* buf[30] = '\0' */

Before:

 %cd /proc/pressure/
 %echo "123456789|123456789|123456789|1234" &gt; memory

[ Upstream commit 77c84dd1881d0f0176cb678d770bfbda26c54390 ]

Fast switching path only emits an event for the CPU of interest, whereas the
regular path emits an event for all the CPUs that had their frequency changed,
i.e. all the CPUs sharing the same policy.

With the current behavior, looking at cpu_frequency event for a given CPU that
is using the fast switching path will not give the correct frequency signal.

[ Upstream commit e78a7614f3876ac649b3df608789cb6ef74d0480 ]

Scheduling-clock interrupts can arrive late in the CPU-offline process,
after idle entry and the subsequent call to cpuhp_report_idle_dead().
Once execution passes the call to rcu_report_dead(), RCU is ignoring
the CPU, which results in lockdep complaints when the interrupt handler
uses RCU:

------------------------------------------------------------------------

=============================
WARNING: suspicious RCU usage
5.2.0-rc1+ #681 Not tainted

kernel/sched/fair.c:9542 suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage!

other info that might help us debug this:

[ Upstream commit e78a7614f3876ac649b3df608789cb6ef74d0480 ]

Scheduling-clock interrupts can arrive late in the CPU-offline process,
after idle entry and the subsequent call to cpuhp_report_idle_dead().
Once execution passes the call to rcu_report_dead(), RCU is ignoring
the CPU, which results in lockdep complaints when the interrupt handler
uses RCU:

[ Upstream commit 59d06cea1198d665ba11f7e8c5f45b00ff2e4812 ]

If a task happens to be throttled while the CPU it was running on gets
hotplugged off, the bandwidth associated with the task is not correctly
migrated with it when the replenishment timer fires (offline_migration).

Fix things up, for this_bw, running_bw and total_bw, when replenishment
timer fires and task is migrated (dl_task_offline_migration()).

<title>sched/core: Fix CPU controller for !RT_GROUP_SCHED</title>

[ Upstream commit a07db5c0865799ebed1f88be0df50c581fb65029 ]

On !CONFIG_RT_GROUP_SCHED configurations it is currently not possible to
move RT tasks between cgroups to which CPU controller has been attached;
but it is oddly possible to first move tasks around and then make them
RT (setschedule to FIFO/RR).

E.g.:

  # mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu,cpuacct/group1
  # chrt -fp 10 $$
  # echo $$ &gt; /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu,cpuacct/group1/tasks
  bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
  # chrt -op 0 $$
  # echo $$ &gt; /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu,cpuacct/group1/tasks
  # chrt -fp 10 $$
  # cat /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu,cpuacct/group1/tasks
  2345
  2598
  # chrt -p 2345
  pid 2345's current scheduling policy: SCHED_FIFO
  pid 2345's current scheduling priority: 10

Also, as Michal noted, it is currently not possible to enable CPU
controller on unified hierarchy with !CONFIG_RT_GROUP_SCHED (if there
are any kernel RT threads in root cgroup, they can't be migrated to the
newly created CPU controller's root in cgroup_update_dfl_csses()).

Existing code comes with a comment saying the "we don't support RT-tasks
being in separate groups". Such comment is however stale and belongs to
pre-RT_GROUP_SCHED times. Also, it doesn't make much sense for
!RT_GROUP_ SCHED configurations, since checks related to RT bandwidth
are not performed at all in these cases.

Make moving RT tasks between CPU controller groups viable by removing
special case check for RT (and DEADLINE) tasks.

<title>sched/fair: Fix imbalance due to CPU affinity</title>

[ Upstream commit f6cad8df6b30a5d2bbbd2e698f74b4cafb9fb82b ]

The load_balance() has a dedicated mecanism to detect when an imbalance
is due to CPU affinity and must be handled at parent level. In this case,
the imbalance field of the parent's sched_group is set.

The description of sg_imbalanced() gives a typical example of two groups
of 4 CPUs each and 4 tasks each with a cpumask covering 1 CPU of the first
group and 3 CPUs of the second group. Something like:

	{ 0 1 2 3 } { 4 5 6 7 }
	        *     * * *

But the load_balance fails to fix this UC on my octo cores system
made of 2 clusters of quad cores.

Whereas the load_balance is able to detect that the imbalanced is due to
CPU affinity, it fails to fix it because the imbalance field is cleared
before letting parent level a chance to run. In fact, when the imbalance is
detected, the load_balance reruns without the CPU with pinned tasks. But
there is no other running tasks in the situation described above and
everything looks balanced this time so the imbalance field is immediately
cleared.

The imbalance field should not be cleared if there is no other task to move
when the imbalance is detected.

time/tick-broadcast: Fix tick_broadcast_offline() lockdep complaint

The TASKS03 and TREE04 rcutorture scenarios produce the following
lockdep complaint:

	WARNING: inconsistent lock state

To reproduce, run the following rcutorture test:

 $ tools/testing/selftests/rcutorture/bin/kvm.sh --duration 5 --kconfig "CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC=y CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING=y" --configs "TASKS03 TREE04"

It turns out that tick_broadcast_offline() was an innocent bystander.
After all, interrupts are supposed to be disabled throughout
take_cpu_down(), and therefore should have been disabled upon entry to
tick_offline_cpu() and thus to tick_broadcast_offline().  This suggests
that one of the CPU-hotplug notifiers was incorrectly enabling interrupts,
and leaving them enabled on return.

Some debugging code showed that the culprit was sched_cpu_dying().
It had irqs enabled after return from sched_tick_stop().  Which in turn
had irqs enabled after return from cancel_delayed_work_sync().  Which is a
wrapper around __cancel_work_timer().  Which can sleep in the case where
something else is concurrently trying to cancel the same delayed work,
and as Thomas Gleixner pointed out on IRC, sleeping is a decidedly bad
idea when you are invoked from take_cpu_down(), regardless of the state
you leave interrupts in upon return.

Code inspection located no reason why the delayed work absolutely
needed to be canceled from sched_tick_stop():  The work is not
bound to the outgoing CPU by design, given that the whole point is
to collect statistics without disturbing the outgoing CPU.

This commit therefore simply drops the cancel_delayed_work_sync() from
sched_tick_stop().  Instead, a new -&gt;state field is added to the tick_work
structure so that the delayed-work handler function sched_tick_remote()
can avoid reposting itself.  A cpu_is_offline() check is also added to
sched_tick_remote() to avoid mucking with the state of an offlined CPU
(though it does appear safe to do so).  The sched_tick_start() and
sched_tick_stop() functions also update -&gt;state, and sched_tick_start()
also schedules the delayed work if -&gt;state indicates that it is not
already in flight.
