commit 302e9edd54985f584cfc180098f3554774126969 upstream.

If a trigger is set on an event to disable or enable tracing within an
instance, then tracing should be disabled or enabled in the instance and
not at the top level, which is confusing to users.

<title>cgroup/cpuset: Fix a race between cpuset_attach() and cpu hotplug</title>

commit 05c7b7a92cc87ff8d7fde189d0fade250697573c upstream.

As previously discussed(https://lkml.org/lkml/2022/1/20/51),
cpuset_attach() is affected with similar cpu hotplug race,
as follow scenario:

     cpuset_attach()				cpu hotplug
    ---------------------------            ----------------------
    down_write(cpuset_rwsem)
    guarantee_online_cpus() // (load cpus_attach)
					sched_cpu_deactivate
					  set_cpu_active()
					  // will change cpu_active_mask
    set_cpus_allowed_ptr(cpus_attach)
      __set_cpus_allowed_ptr_locked()
       // (if the intersection of cpus_attach and
         cpu_active_mask is empty, will return -EINVAL)
    up_write(cpuset_rwsem)

To avoid races such as described above, protect cpuset_attach() call
with cpu_hotplug_lock.

<title>tracing: Fix tp_printk option related with tp_printk_stop_on_boot</title>

[ Upstream commit 3203ce39ac0b2a57a84382ec184c7d4a0bede175 ]

The kernel parameter "tp_printk_stop_on_boot" starts with "tp_printk" which is
the same as another kernel parameter "tp_printk". If "tp_printk" setup is
called before the "tp_printk_stop_on_boot", it will override the latter
and keep it from being set.

This is similar to other kernel parameter issues, such as:
  Commit 745a600cf1a6 ("um: console: Ignore console= option")
or init/do_mounts.c:45 (setup function of "ro" kernel param)

Fix it by checking for a "_" right after the "tp_printk" and if that
exists do not process the parameter.

One way to solve this problem is to move the fd_install() call out of
the sighand-&gt;siglock critical section.

Before commit 6fd2fe494b17 ("copy_process(): don't use ksys_close()
on cleanups"), the pidfd installation was done without holding both
the task_list lock and the sighand-&gt;siglock. Obviously, holding these
two locks are not really needed to protect the fd_install() call.
So move the fd_install() call down to after the releases of both locks.

commit 1b5a42d9c85f0e731f01c8d1129001fd8531a8a0 upstream.

In the function bacct_add_task the code reading task-&gt;exit_code was
introduced in commit f3cef7a99469 ("[PATCH] csa: basic accounting over
taskstats"), and it is not entirely clear what the taskstats interface
is trying to return as only returning the exit_code of the first task
in a process doesn't make a lot of sense.

As best as I can figure the intent is to return task-&gt;exit_code after
a task exits.  The field is returned with per task fields, so the
exit_code of the entire process is not wanted.  Only the value of the
first task is returned so this is not a useful way to get the per task
ptrace stop code.  The ordinary case of returning this value is
returning after a task exits, which also precludes use for getting
a ptrace value.

It is common to for the first task of a process to also be the last
task of a process so this field may have done something reasonable by
accident in testing.

Make ac_exitcode a reliable per task value by always returning it for
every exited task.

Setting ac_exitcode in a sensible mannter makes it possible to continue
to provide this value going forward.

commit a1326b17ac03a9012cb3d01e434aacb4d67a416c upstream.

When using patchable-function-entry, the compiler will record the
callsites into a section named "__patchable_function_entries" rather
than "__mcount_loc". Let's abstract this difference behind a new
FTRACE_CALLSITE_SECTION, so that architectures don't have to handle this
explicitly (e.g. with custom module linker scripts).

As parisc currently handles this explicitly, it is fixed up accordingly,
with its custom linker script removed. Since FTRACE_CALLSITE_SECTION is
only defined when DYNAMIC_FTRACE is selected, the parisc module loading
code is updated to only use the definition in that case. When
DYNAMIC_FTRACE is not selected, modules shouldn't have this section, so
this removes some redundant work in that case.

To make sure that this is keep up-to-date for modules and the main
kernel, a comment is added to vmlinux.lds.h, with the existing ifdeffery
simplified for legibility.

I built parisc generic-{32,64}bit_defconfig with DYNAMIC_FTRACE enabled,
and verified that the section made it into the .ko files for modules.

<title>ftrace: add ftrace_init_nop()</title>

commit fbf6c73c5b264c25484fa9f449b5546569fe11f0 upstream.

Architectures may need to perform special initialization of ftrace
callsites, and today they do so by special-casing ftrace_make_nop() when
the expected branch address is MCOUNT_ADDR. In some cases (e.g. for
patchable-function-entry), we don't have an mcount-like symbol and don't
want a synthetic MCOUNT_ADDR, but we may need to perform some
initialization of callsites.

To make it possible to separate initialization from runtime
modification, and to handle cases without an mcount-like symbol, this
patch adds an optional ftrace_init_nop() function that architectures can
implement, which does not pass a branch address.

Where an architecture does not provide ftrace_init_nop(), we will fall
back to the existing behaviour of calling ftrace_make_nop() with
MCOUNT_ADDR.

At the same time, ftrace_code_disable() is renamed to
ftrace_nop_initialize() to make it clearer that it is intended to
intialize a callsite into a disabled state, and is not for disabling a
callsite that has been runtime enabled. The kerneldoc description of rec
arguments is updated to cover non-mcount callsites.

<title>Revert "module, async: async_synchronize_full() on module init iff async is used"</title>

[ Upstream commit 67d6212afda218d564890d1674bab28e8612170f ]

This reverts commit 774a1221e862b343388347bac9b318767336b20b.

We need to finish all async code before the module init sequence is
done.  In the reverted commit the PF_USED_ASYNC flag was added to mark a
thread that called async_schedule().  Then the PF_USED_ASYNC flag was
used to determine whether or not async_synchronize_full() needs to be
invoked.  This works when modprobe thread is calling async_schedule(),
but it does not work if module dispatches init code to a worker thread
which then calls async_schedule().

For example, PCI driver probing is invoked from a worker thread based on
a node where device is attached:

	if (cpu &lt; nr_cpu_ids)
		error = work_on_cpu(cpu, local_pci_probe, &amp;ddi);
	else
		error = local_pci_probe(&amp;ddi);

We end up in a situation where a worker thread gets the PF_USED_ASYNC
flag set instead of the modprobe thread.  As a result,
async_synchronize_full() is not invoked and modprobe completes without
waiting for the async code to finish.

The issue was discovered while loading the pm80xx driver:
(scsi_mod.scan=async)

modprobe pm80xx                      worker
...
  do_init_module()
  ...
    pci_call_probe()
      work_on_cpu(local_pci_probe)
                                     local_pci_probe()
                                       pm8001_pci_probe()
                                         scsi_scan_host()
                                           async_schedule()
                                           worker-&gt;flags |= PF_USED_ASYNC;
                                     ...
      &lt; return from worker &gt;
  ...
  if (current-&gt;flags &amp; PF_USED_ASYNC) &lt;--- false
  	async_synchronize_full();

Commit 21c3c5d28007 ("block: don't request module during elevator init")
fixed the deadlock issue which the reverted commit 774a1221e862
("module, async: async_synchronize_full() on module init iff async is
used") tried to fix.

Since commit 0fdff3ec6d87 ("async, kmod: warn on synchronous
request_module() from async workers") synchronous module loading from
async is not allowed.

Given that the original deadlock issue is fixed and it is no longer
allowed to call synchronous request_module() from async we can remove
PF_USED_ASYNC flag to make module init consistently invoke
async_synchronize_full() unless async module probe is requested.

commit 5f4e5ce638e6a490b976ade4a40017b40abb2da0 upstream.

There's list corruption on cgrp_cpuctx_list. This happens on the
following path:

  perf_cgroup_switch: list_for_each_entry(cgrp_cpuctx_list)
      cpu_ctx_sched_in
         ctx_sched_in
            ctx_pinned_sched_in
              merge_sched_in
                  perf_cgroup_event_disable: remove the event from the list

Use list_for_each_entry_safe() to allow removing an entry during
iteration.

commit 495ac3069a6235bfdf516812a2a9b256671bbdf9 upstream.

If seccomp tries to kill a process, it should never see that process
again. To enforce this proactively, switch the mode to something
impossible. If encountered: WARN, reject all syscalls, and attempt to
kill the process again even harder.
