[ Upstream commit 43ec16f1450f4936025a9bdf1a273affdb9732c1 ]

There is a crash in relay_file_read, as the var from
point to the end of last subbuf.

The oops looks something like:
pc : __arch_copy_to_user+0x180/0x310
lr : relay_file_read+0x20c/0x2c8
Call trace:
 __arch_copy_to_user+0x180/0x310
 full_proxy_read+0x68/0x98
 vfs_read+0xb0/0x1d0
 ksys_read+0x6c/0xf0
 __arm64_sys_read+0x20/0x28
 el0_svc_common.constprop.3+0x84/0x108
 do_el0_svc+0x74/0x90
 el0_svc+0x1c/0x28
 el0_sync_handler+0x88/0xb0
 el0_sync+0x148/0x180

We get the condition by analyzing the vmcore:

1). The last produced byte and last consumed byte
    both at the end of the last subbuf

2). A softirq calls function(e.g __blk_add_trace)
    to write relay buffer occurs when an program is calling
    relay_file_read_avail().

        relay_file_read
                relay_file_read_avail
                        relay_file_read_consume(buf, 0, 0);
                        //interrupted by softirq who will write subbuf
                        ....
                        return 1;
                //read_start point to the end of the last subbuf
                read_start = relay_file_read_start_pos
                //avail is equal to subsize
                avail = relay_file_read_subbuf_avail

                from = buf-&gt;start + read_start
                //system is crashed
                copy_to_user(buffer, from, avail)

[ Upstream commit 341a7213e5c1ce274cc0f02270054905800ea660 ]

When reading, read_pos should start with bytes_consumed, not file-&gt;f_pos.
Because when there is more than one reader, the read_pos corresponding to
file-&gt;f_pos may have been consumed, which will cause the data that has
been consumed to be read and the bytes_consumed update error.

[ Upstream commit 58d7668242647e661a20efe065519abd6454287e ]

For CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL systems, the tick_do_timer_cpu cannot be offlined.
However, cpu_is_hotpluggable() still returns true for those CPUs. This causes
torture tests that do offlining to end up trying to offline this CPU causing
test failures. Such failure happens on all architectures.

Fix the repeated error messages thrown by this (even if the hotplug errors are
harmless) by asking the opinion of the nohz subsystem on whether the CPU can be
hotplugged.

[ Apply Frederic Weisbecker feedback on refactoring tick_nohz_cpu_down(). ]

[ Upstream commit 01b4c39901e087ceebae2733857248de81476bd8 ]

If a nohz_full CPU is looping in the kernel, the scheduling-clock tick
might nevertheless remain disabled.  In !PREEMPT kernels, this can
prevent RCU's attempts to enlist the aid of that CPU's executions of
cond_resched(), which can in turn result in an arbitrarily delayed grace
period and thus an OOM.  RCU therefore needs a way to enable a holdout
nohz_full CPU's scheduler-clock interrupt.

This commit therefore provides a new TICK_DEP_BIT_RCU value which RCU can
pass to tick_dep_set_cpu() and friends to force on the scheduler-clock
interrupt for a specified CPU or task.  In some cases, rcutorture needs
to turn on the scheduler-clock tick, so this commit also exports the
relevant symbols to GPL-licensed modules.

[ Upstream commit 15def34e2635ab7e0e96f1bc32e1b69609f14942 ]

commit e050e3f0a71bf ("perf: Fix broken interrupt rate throttling")
introduces a change in throttling threshold judgment. Before this,
compare hwc-&gt;interrupts and max_samples_per_tick, then increase
hwc-&gt;interrupts by 1, but this commit reverses order of these two
behaviors, causing the semantics of max_samples_per_tick to change.
In literal sense of "max_samples_per_tick", if hwc-&gt;interrupts ==
max_samples_per_tick, it should not be throttled, therefore, the judgment
condition should be changed to "hwc-&gt;interrupts &gt; max_samples_per_tick".

In fact, this may cause the hardlockup to fail, The minimum value of
max_samples_per_tick may be 1, in this case, the return value of
__perf_event_account_interrupt function is 1.
As a result, nmi_watchdog gets throttled, which would stop PMU (Use x86
architecture as an example, see x86_pmu_handle_irq).

<title>genirq: Add IRQF_NO_AUTOEN for request_irq/nmi()</title>

[ Upstream commit cbe16f35bee6880becca6f20d2ebf6b457148552 ]

Many drivers don't want interrupts enabled automatically via request_irq().
So they are handling this issue by either way of the below two:

(1)
  irq_set_status_flags(irq, IRQ_NOAUTOEN);
  request_irq(dev, irq...);

(2)
  request_irq(dev, irq...);
  disable_irq(irq);

The code in the second way is silly and unsafe. In the small time gap
between request_irq() and disable_irq(), interrupts can still come.

The code in the first way is safe though it's subobtimal.

Add a new IRQF_NO_AUTOEN flag which can be handed in by drivers to
request_irq() and request_nmi(). It prevents the automatic enabling of the
requested interrupt/nmi in the same safe way as #1 above. With that the
various usage sites of #1 and #2 above can be simplified and corrected.

[ Upstream commit 00e74ae0863827d944e36e56a4ce1e77e50edb91 ]

Some socket options do getsockopt with optval=NULL to estimate the size
of the final buffer (which is returned via optlen). This breaks BPF
getsockopt assumptions about permitted optval buffer size. Let's enforce
these assumptions only when non-NULL optval is provided.

<title>tick/common: Align tick period with the HZ tick.</title>

[ Upstream commit e9523a0d81899361214d118ad60ef76f0e92f71d ]

With HIGHRES enabled tick_sched_timer() is programmed every jiffy to
expire the timer_list timers. This timer is programmed accurate in
respect to CLOCK_MONOTONIC so that 0 seconds and nanoseconds is the
first tick and the next one is 1000/CONFIG_HZ ms later. For HZ=250 it is
every 4 ms and so based on the current time the next tick can be
computed.

This accuracy broke since the commit mentioned below because the jiffy
based clocksource is initialized with higher accuracy in
read_persistent_wall_and_boot_offset(). This higher accuracy is
inherited during the setup in tick_setup_device(). The timer still fires
every 4ms with HZ=250 but timer is no longer aligned with
CLOCK_MONOTONIC with 0 as it origin but has an offset in the us/ns part
of the timestamp. The offset differs with every boot and makes it
impossible for user land to align with the tick.

Align the tick period with CLOCK_MONOTONIC ensuring that it is always a
multiple of 1000/CONFIG_HZ ms.

[ Upstream commit b996544916429946bf4934c1c01a306d1690972c ]

The variable tick_period is initialized to NSEC_PER_TICK / HZ during boot
and never updated again.

If NSEC_PER_TICK is not an integer multiple of HZ this computation is less
accurate than TICK_NSEC which has proper rounding in place.

Aside of the inaccuracy there is no reason for having this variable at
all. It's just a pointless indirection and all usage sites can just use the
TICK_NSEC constant.
