[ Upstream commit 23bcc480dac204c7dbdf49d96b2c918ed98223c2 ]

Current implementation of auditing by executable name only implements
the 'equal' operator. This patch extends it to also support the 'not
equal' operator.

[ Upstream commit 02acc80d19edb0d5684c997b2004ad19f9f5236e ]

try_to_wake_up() might invoke delayacct_blkio_end() while holding the
pi_lock (which is a raw_spinlock_t). delayacct_blkio_end() acquires
task_delay_info.lock which is a spinlock_t. This causes a might sleep splat
on -RT where non raw spinlocks are converted to 'sleeping' spinlocks.

task_delay_info.lock is only held for a short amount of time so it's not a
problem latency wise to make convert it to a raw spinlock.

Use raw-locks in stop_machine() to allow locking in irq-off and
preempt-disabled regions on -RT. This also documents the possible locking
context in general.

[ Upstream commit 62fc00a6611a0014c85763f9def1fc07c15d1302 ]

The `s2idle_lock' is acquired during suspend while interrupts are
disabled even on RT. The lock is acquired for short sections only.
Make it a RAW lock which avoids "sleeping while atomic" warnings on RT.

[ Upstream commit 554755be08fba31c74f66b82a485e5513205af84 ]

Drop the in_nmi() check from printk_safe_flush_on_panic()
and attempt to re-init (IOW unlock) locked logbuf spinlock
from panic CPU regardless of its context.

Otherwise, theoretically, we can deadlock on logbuf trying to flush
per-CPU buffers:

  a) Panic CPU is running in non-NMI context
  b) Panic CPU sends out shutdown IPI via reboot vector
  c) Panic CPU fails to stop all remote CPUs
  d) Panic CPU sends out shutdown IPI via NMI vector
     One of the CPUs that we bring down via NMI vector can hold
     logbuf spin lock (theoretically).

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

When reporting an AB-BA deadlock like shown above, it would be nice if
trace of PID=6541 is printed as well as trace of PID=6540 before calling
panic().

Showing hung tasks up to /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_warnings could delay
calling panic() but normally there should not be so many hung tasks.

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

When reporting an AB-BA deadlock like shown above, it would be nice if
trace of PID=6541 is printed as well as trace of PID=6540 before calling
panic().

Showing hung tasks up to /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_warnings could delay
calling panic() but normally there should not be so many hung tasks.

<title>kcov: ensure irq code sees a valid area</title>

[ Upstream commit c9484b986ef03492357fddd50afbdd02929cfa72 ]

Patch series "kcov: fix unexpected faults".

These patches fix a few issues where KCOV code could trigger recursive
faults, discovered while debugging a patch enabling KCOV for arch/arm:

* On CONFIG_PREEMPT kernels, there's a small race window where
  __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc() can see a bogus kcov_area.

* Lazy faulting of the vmalloc area can cause mutual recursion between
  fault handling code and __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc().

* During the context switch, switching the mm can cause the kcov_area to
  be transiently unmapped.

These are prerequisites for enabling KCOV on arm, but the issues
themsevles are generic -- we just happen to avoid them by chance rather
than design on x86-64 and arm64.

This patch (of 3):

For kernels built with CONFIG_PREEMPT, some C code may execute before or
after the interrupt handler, while the hardirq count is zero.  In these
cases, in_task() can return true.

A task can be interrupted in the middle of a KCOV_DISABLE ioctl while it
resets the task's kcov data via kcov_task_init().  Instrumented code
executed during this period will call __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc(), and as
in_task() returns true, will inspect t-&gt;kcov_mode before trying to write
to t-&gt;kcov_area.

In kcov_init_task() we update t-&gt;kcov_{mode,area,size} with plain stores,
which may be re-ordered, torn, etc.  Thus __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc() may
see bogus values for any of these fields, and may attempt to write to
memory which is not mapped.

Let's avoid this by using WRITE_ONCE() to set t-&gt;kcov_mode, with a
barrier() to ensure this is ordered before we clear t-&gt;kov_{area,size}.
This ensures that any code execute while kcov_init_task() is preempted
will either see valid values for t-&gt;kcov_{area,size}, or will see that
t-&gt;kcov_mode is KCOV_MODE_DISABLED, and bail out without touching
t-&gt;kcov_area.

<title>tracing: Quiet gcc warning about maybe unused link variable</title>

commit 2519c1bbe38d7acacc9aacba303ca6f97482ed53 upstream.

Commit 57ea2a34adf4 ("tracing/kprobes: Fix trace_probe flags on
enable_trace_kprobe() failure") added an if statement that depends on another
if statement that gcc doesn't see will initialize the "link" variable and
gives the warning:

 "warning: 'link' may be used uninitialized in this function"

It is really a false positive, but to quiet the warning, and also to make
sure that it never actually is used uninitialized, initialize the "link"
variable to NULL and add an if (!WARN_ON_ONCE(!link)) where the compiler
thinks it could be used uninitialized.

commit 57ea2a34adf40f3a6e88409aafcf803b8945619a upstream.

If enable_trace_kprobe fails to enable the probe in enable_k(ret)probe
it returns an error, but does not unset the tp flags it set previously.
This results in a probe being considered enabled and failures like being
unable to remove the probe through kprobe_events file since probes_open()
expects every probe to be disabled.
