commit 86b389ff22bd6ad8fd3cb98e41cd271886c6d023 upstream.

If a instance has an event trigger enabled when it is freed, it could cause
an access of free memory. Here's the case that crashes:

 # cd /sys/kernel/tracing
 # mkdir instances/foo
 # echo snapshot &gt; instances/foo/events/initcall/initcall_start/trigger
 # rmdir instances/foo

Would produce:

[ Upstream commit 1e0ce03bf142454f38a5fc050bf4fd698d2d36d8 ]

The "mdr" command should repeat (continue) when only Enter/Return
is pressed, so make it do so.

[ Upstream commit 23138ead270045f1b3e912e667967b6094244999 ]

If there is a memory allocation error when trying to change an audit
kernel feature value, the ignored allocation error will trigger a NULL
pointer dereference oops on subsequent use of that pointer.  Return
instead.

Passes audit-testsuite.

[ Upstream commit 9e5b127d6f33468143d90c8a45ca12410e4c3fa7 ]

Mark reported his arm64 perf fuzzer runs sometimes splat like:

  armv8pmu_read_counter+0x1e8/0x2d8
  armpmu_event_update+0x8c/0x188
  armpmu_read+0xc/0x18
  perf_output_read+0x550/0x11e8
  perf_event_read_event+0x1d0/0x248
  perf_event_exit_task+0x468/0xbb8
  do_exit+0x690/0x1310
  do_group_exit+0xd0/0x2b0
  get_signal+0x2e8/0x17a8
  do_signal+0x144/0x4f8
  do_notify_resume+0x148/0x1e8
  work_pending+0x8/0x14

which asserts that we only call pmu::read() on ACTIVE events.

The above callchain does:

  perf_event_exit_task()
    perf_event_exit_task_context()
      task_ctx_sched_out() // INACTIVE
      perf_event_exit_event()
        perf_event_set_state(EXIT) // EXIT
        sync_child_event()
          perf_event_read_event()
            perf_output_read()
              perf_output_read_group()
                leader-&gt;pmu-&gt;read()

Which results in doing a pmu::read() on an !ACTIVE event.

I _think_ this is 'new' since we added attr.inherit_stat, which added
the perf_event_read_event() to the exit path, without that
perf_event_read_output() would only trigger from samples and for
@event to trigger a sample, it's leader _must_ be ACTIVE too.

Still, adding this check makes it consistent with the @sub case for
the siblings.

[ Upstream commit d29a20645d5e929aa7e8616f28e5d8e1c49263ec ]

While running rt-tests' pi_stress program I got the following splat:

  rq-&gt;clock_update_flags &lt; RQCF_ACT_SKIP
  WARNING: CPU: 27 PID: 0 at kernel/sched/sched.h:960 assert_clock_updated.isra.38.part.39+0x13/0x20

  cpu_startup_entry+0x5f/0x70
  start_secondary+0x192/0x1d0

We can get rid of it be the "traditional" means of adding an
update_rq_clock() call after acquiring the rq-&gt;lock in
do_sched_rt_period_timer().

The case for the RT task throttling (which this workload also hits)
can be ignored in that the skip_update call is actually bogus and
quite the contrary (the request bits are removed/reverted).

By setting RQCF_UPDATED we really don't care if the skip is happening
or not and will therefore make the assert_clock_updated() check happy.

[ Upstream commit c917e0f259908e75bd2a65877e25f9d90c22c848 ]

When a perf_event is attached to parent cgroup, it should count events
for all children cgroups:

   parent_group   &lt;---- perf_event
     \
      - child_group  &lt;---- process(es)

However, in our tests, we found this perf_event cannot report reliable
results. Here is an example case:

  # create cgroups
  mkdir -p /sys/fs/cgroup/p/c
  # start perf for parent group
  perf stat -e instructions -G "p"

  # on another console, run test process in child cgroup:
  stressapptest -s 2 -M 1000 &amp; echo $! &gt; /sys/fs/cgroup/p/c/cgroup.procs

  # after the test process is done, stop perf in the first console shows

       &lt;not counted&gt;      instructions              p

The instruction should not be "not counted" as the process runs in the
child cgroup.

We found this is because perf_event-&gt;cgrp and cpuctx-&gt;cgrp are not
identical, thus perf_event-&gt;cgrp are not updated properly.

This patch fixes this by updating perf_cgroup properly for ancestor
cgroup(s).

[ Upstream commit 88913bd8ea2a75d7e460a4bed5f75e1c32660d7e ]

chan-&gt;n_subbufs is set by the user and relay_create_buf() does a kmalloc()
of chan-&gt;n_subbufs * sizeof(size_t *).

kmalloc_slab() will generate a warning when this fails if
chan-&gt;subbufs * sizeof(size_t *) &gt; KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE.

Limit chan-&gt;n_subbufs to the maximum allowed kmalloc() size.

<title>locking/qspinlock: Ensure node-&gt;count is updated before initialising node</title>

[ Upstream commit 11dc13224c975efcec96647a4768a6f1bb7a19a8 ]

When queuing on the qspinlock, the count field for the current CPU's head
node is incremented. This needn't be atomic because locking in e.g. IRQ
context is balanced and so an IRQ will return with node-&gt;count as it
found it.

However, the compiler could in theory reorder the initialisation of
node[idx] before the increment of the head node-&gt;count, causing an
IRQ to overwrite the initialised node and potentially corrupt the lock
state.

Avoid the potential for this harmful compiler reordering by placing a
barrier() between the increment of the head node-&gt;count and the subsequent
node initialisation.

<title>x86/power: Fix swsusp_arch_resume prototype</title>

[ Upstream commit 328008a72d38b5bde6491e463405c34a81a65d3e ]

The declaration for swsusp_arch_resume marks it as 'asmlinkage', but the
definition in x86-32 does not, and it fails to include the header with the
declaration. This leads to a warning when building with
link-time-optimizations:

kernel/power/power.h:108:23: error: type of 'swsusp_arch_resume' does not match original declaration [-Werror=lto-type-mismatch]
 extern asmlinkage int swsusp_arch_resume(void);
                       ^
arch/x86/power/hibernate_32.c:148:0: note: 'swsusp_arch_resume' was previously declared here
 int swsusp_arch_resume(void)

This moves the declaration into a globally visible header file and fixes up
both x86 definitions to match it.
