cgroup/cpuset: Fix "suspicious RCU usage" lockdep warning

2022-02-08T17:35:20+00:00

commit 2bdfd2825c9662463371e6691b1a794e97fa36b4 upstream.

It was found that a "suspicious RCU usage" lockdep warning was issued
with the rcu_read_lock() call in update_sibling_cpumasks().  It is
because the update_cpumasks_hier() function may sleep. So we have
to release the RCU lock, call update_cpumasks_hier() and reacquire
it afterward.

Also add a percpu_rwsem_assert_held() in update_sibling_cpumasks()
instead of stating that in the comment.

perf: Copy perf_event_attr::sig_data on modification

2022-02-08T17:35:18+00:00

[ Upstream commit 3c25fc97f5590060464cabfa25710970ecddbc96 ]

The intent has always been that perf_event_attr::sig_data should also be
modifiable along with PERF_EVENT_IOC_MODIFY_ATTRIBUTES, because it is
observable by user space if SIGTRAP on events is requested.

Currently only PERF_TYPE_BREAKPOINT is modifiable, and explicitly copies
relevant breakpoint-related attributes in hw_breakpoint_copy_attr().
This misses copying perf_event_attr::sig_data.

Since sig_data is not specific to PERF_TYPE_BREAKPOINT, introduce a
helper to copy generic event-type-independent attributes on
modification.

bpf: Use VM_MAP instead of VM_ALLOC for ringbuf

2022-02-08T17:35:17+00:00

commit b293dcc473d22a62dc6d78de2b15e4f49515db56 upstream.

After commit 2fd3fb0be1d1 ("kasan, vmalloc: unpoison VM_ALLOC pages
after mapping"), non-VM_ALLOC mappings will be marked as accessible
in __get_vm_area_node() when KASAN is enabled. But now the flag for
ringbuf area is VM_ALLOC, so KASAN will complain out-of-bound access
after vmap() returns. Because the ringbuf area is created by mapping
allocated pages, so use VM_MAP instead.

After the change, info in /proc/vmallocinfo also changes from
  [start]-[end]   24576 ringbuf_map_alloc+0x171/0x290 vmalloc user
to
  [start]-[end]   24576 ringbuf_map_alloc+0x171/0x290 vmap user

audit: improve audit queue handling when "audit=1" on cmdline

2022-02-08T17:35:07+00:00

commit f26d04331360d42dbd6b58448bd98e4edbfbe1c5 upstream.

When an admin enables audit at early boot via the "audit=1" kernel
command line the audit queue behavior is slightly different; the
audit subsystem goes to greater lengths to avoid dropping records,
which unfortunately can result in problems when the audit daemon is
forcibly stopped for an extended period of time.

This patch makes a number of changes designed to improve the audit
queuing behavior so that leaving the audit daemon in a stopped state
for an extended period does not cause a significant impact to the
system.

- kauditd_send_queue() is now limited to looping through the
  passed queue only once per call.  This not only prevents the
  function from looping indefinitely when records are returned
  to the current queue, it also allows any recovery handling in
  kauditd_thread() to take place when kauditd_send_queue()
  returns.

- Transient netlink send errors seen as -EAGAIN now cause the
  record to be returned to the retry queue instead of going to
  the hold queue.  The intention of the hold queue is to store,
  perhaps for an extended period of time, the events which led
  up to the audit daemon going offline.  The retry queue remains
  a temporary queue intended to protect against transient issues
  between the kernel and the audit daemon.

- The retry queue is now limited by the audit_backlog_limit
  setting, the same as the other queues.  This allows admins
  to bound the size of all of the audit queues on the system.

- kauditd_rehold_skb() now returns records to the end of the
  hold queue to ensure ordering is preserved in the face of
  recent changes to kauditd_send_queue().

perf/core: Fix cgroup event list management

2022-02-01T16:29:19+00:00

commit c5de60cd622a2607c043ba65e25a6e9998a369f9 upstream.

The active cgroup events are managed in the per-cpu cgrp_cpuctx_list.
This list is only accessed from current cpu and not protected by any
locks.  But from the commit ef54c1a476ae ("perf: Rework
perf_event_exit_event()"), it's possible to access (actually modify)
the list from another cpu.

In the perf_remove_from_context(), it can remove an event from the
context without an IPI when the context is not active.  This is not
safe with cgroup events which can have some active events in the
context even if ctx->is_active is 0 at the moment.  The target cpu
might be in the middle of list iteration at the same time.

If the event is enabled when it's about to be closed, it might call
perf_cgroup_event_disable() and list_del() with the cgrp_cpuctx_list
on a different cpu.

This resulted in a crash due to an invalid list pointer access during
the cgroup list traversal on the cpu which the event belongs to.

Let's fallback to IPI to access the cgrp_cpuctx_list from that cpu.
Similarly, perf_install_in_context() should use IPI for the cgroup
events too.

sched/pelt: Relax the sync of util_sum with util_avg

2022-02-01T16:29:13+00:00

[ Upstream commit 98b0d890220d45418cfbc5157b3382e6da5a12ab ]

Rick reported performance regressions in bugzilla because of cpu frequency
being lower than before:
    https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=215045

He bisected the problem to:
commit 1c35b07e6d39 ("sched/fair: Ensure _sum and _avg values stay consistent")

This commit forces util_sum to be synced with the new util_avg after
removing the contribution of a task and before the next periodic sync. By
doing so util_sum is rounded to its lower bound and might lost up to
LOAD_AVG_MAX-1 of accumulated contribution which has not yet been
reflected in util_avg.

Instead of always setting util_sum to the low bound of util_avg, which can
significantly lower the utilization of root cfs_rq after propagating the
change down into the hierarchy, we revert the change of util_sum and
propagate the difference.

In addition, we also check that cfs's util_sum always stays above the
lower bound for a given util_avg as it has been observed that
sched_entity's util_sum is sometimes above cfs one.
