commit af80602799681c78f14fbe20b6185a56020dedee upstream.

In order to allow using mm_alloc() much earlier, move initializing
mm_cachep into mm_init().

commit 3f4c8211d982099be693be9aa7d6fc4607dff290 upstream.

Instead of duplicating init_mm, allocate a fresh mm. The advantage is
that mm_alloc() has much simpler dependencies. Additionally it makes
more conceptual sense, init_mm has no (and must not have) user state
to duplicate.

commit 4b8b3905165ef98386a3c06f196c85d21292d029 upstream.

Commit 6018b585e8c6 ("tracing/histograms: Add histograms to hist_vars if
they have referenced variables") added a check to fail histogram creation
if save_hist_vars() failed to add histogram to hist_vars list. But the
commit failed to set ret to failed return code before jumping to
unregister histogram, fix it.

[ Upstream commit ee9fd0ac3017c4313be91a220a9ac4c99dde7ad4 ]

KCSAN reported a data-race when accessing node-&gt;ref.
Although node-&gt;ref does not have to be accurate,
take this chance to use a more common READ_ONCE() and WRITE_ONCE()
pattern instead of data_race().

There is an existing bpf_lru_node_is_ref() and bpf_lru_node_set_ref().
This patch also adds bpf_lru_node_clear_ref() to do the
WRITE_ONCE(node-&gt;ref, 0) also.

Further investigation shows that the warning is superfluous, the migration
disabled task is just going to be migrated to its current running CPU.
This is because that on load balance if the dst_cpu is not allowed by the
task, we'll re-select a new_dst_cpu as a candidate. If no task can be
balanced to dst_cpu we'll try to balance the task to the new_dst_cpu
instead. In this case when the migration disabled task is not on CPU it
only allows to run on its current CPU, load balance will select its
current CPU as new_dst_cpu and later triggers the warning above.

The new_dst_cpu is chosen from the env-&gt;dst_grpmask. Currently it
contains CPUs in sched_group_span() and if we have overlapped groups it's
possible to run into this case. This patch makes env-&gt;dst_grpmask of
group_balance_mask() which exclude any CPUs from the busiest group and
solve the issue. For balancing in a domain with no overlapped groups
the behaviour keeps same as before.

Further investigation shows that the warning is superfluous, the migration
disabled task is just going to be migrated to its current running CPU.
This is because that on load balance if the dst_cpu is not allowed by the
task, we'll re-select a new_dst_cpu as a candidate. If no task can be
balanced to dst_cpu we'll try to balance the task to the new_dst_cpu
instead. In this case when the migration disabled task is not on CPU it
only allows to run on its current CPU, load balance will select its
current CPU as new_dst_cpu and later triggers the warning above.

The new_dst_cpu is chosen from the env-&gt;dst_grpmask. Currently it
contains CPUs in sched_group_span() and if we have overlapped groups it's
possible to run into this case. This patch makes env-&gt;dst_grpmask of
group_balance_mask() which exclude any CPUs from the busiest group and
solve the issue. For balancing in a domain with no overlapped groups
the behaviour keeps same as before.

<title>posix-timers: Ensure timer ID search-loop limit is valid</title>

[ Upstream commit 8ce8849dd1e78dadcee0ec9acbd259d239b7069f ]

posix_timer_add() tries to allocate a posix timer ID by starting from the
cached ID which was stored by the last successful allocation.

This is done in a loop searching the ID space for a free slot one by
one. The loop has to terminate when the search wrapped around to the
starting point.

But that's racy vs. establishing the starting point. That is read out
lockless, which leads to the following problem:

CPU0	  	      	     	   CPU1
posix_timer_add()
  start = sig-&gt;posix_timer_id;
  lock(hash_lock);
  ...				   posix_timer_add()
  if (++sig-&gt;posix_timer_id &lt; 0)
      			             start = sig-&gt;posix_timer_id;
     sig-&gt;posix_timer_id = 0;

So CPU1 can observe a negative start value, i.e. -1, and the loop break
never happens because the condition can never be true:

  if (sig-&gt;posix_timer_id == start)
     break;

While this is unlikely to ever turn into an endless loop as the ID space is
huge (INT_MAX), the racy read of the start value caught the attention of
KCSAN and Dmitry unearthed that incorrectness.

Rewrite it so that all id operations are under the hash lock.

commit b41326b5e0f82e93592c4366359917b5d67b529f upstream.

Fix not to count the error code (which is minus value) to the total
used length of array, because it can mess up the return code of
process_fetch_insn_bottom(). Also clear the 'ret' value because it
will be used for calculating next data_loc entry.

<title>tracing: Fix null pointer dereference in tracing_err_log_open()</title>

commit 02b0095e2fbbc060560c1065f86a211d91e27b26 upstream.

Fix an issue in function 'tracing_err_log_open'.
The function doesn't call 'seq_open' if the file is opened only with
write permissions, which results in 'file-&gt;private_data' being left as null.
If we then use 'lseek' on that opened file, 'seq_lseek' dereferences
'file-&gt;private_data' in 'mutex_lock(&amp;m-&gt;lock)', resulting in a kernel panic.
Writing to this node requires root privileges, therefore this bug
has very little security impact.

Tracefs node: /sys/kernel/tracing/error_log

Example Kernel panic:

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000038

Through the vmcore, I found it's because in tracing_read_pipe(),
ring_buffer_empty_cpu() found some buffer is not empty but then it
cannot read anything due to "rb_num_of_entries() == 0" always true,
Then it infinitely loop the procedure due to user buffer not been
filled, see following code path:

  tracing_read_pipe() {
    ... ...
    waitagain:
      tracing_wait_pipe() // 1. find non-empty buffer here
      trace_find_next_entry_inc()  // 2. loop here try to find an entry
        __find_next_entry()
          ring_buffer_empty_cpu();  // 3. find non-empty buffer
          peek_next_entry()  // 4. but peek always return NULL
            ring_buffer_peek()
              rb_buffer_peek()
                rb_get_reader_page()
                  // 5. because rb_num_of_entries() == 0 always true here
                  //    then return NULL
      // 6. user buffer not been filled so goto 'waitgain'
      //    and eventually leads to an deadloop in kernel!!!
  }

By some analyzing, I found that when resetting ringbuffer, the 'entries'
of its pages are not all cleared (see rb_reset_cpu()). Then when reducing
the ringbuffer, and if some reduced pages exist dirty 'entries' data, they
will be added into 'cpu_buffer-&gt;overrun' (see rb_remove_pages()), which
cause wrong 'overrun' count and eventually cause the deadloop issue.

To fix it, we need to clear every pages in rb_reset_cpu().

Through the vmcore, I found it's because in tracing_read_pipe(),
ring_buffer_empty_cpu() found some buffer is not empty but then it
cannot read anything due to "rb_num_of_entries() == 0" always true,
Then it infinitely loop the procedure due to user buffer not been
filled, see following code path:

  tracing_read_pipe() {
    ... ...
    waitagain:
      tracing_wait_pipe() // 1. find non-empty buffer here
      trace_find_next_entry_inc()  // 2. loop here try to find an entry
        __find_next_entry()
          ring_buffer_empty_cpu();  // 3. find non-empty buffer
          peek_next_entry()  // 4. but peek always return NULL
            ring_buffer_peek()
              rb_buffer_peek()
                rb_get_reader_page()
                  // 5. because rb_num_of_entries() == 0 always true here
                  //    then return NULL
      // 6. user buffer not been filled so goto 'waitgain'
      //    and eventually leads to an deadloop in kernel!!!
  }

By some analyzing, I found that when resetting ringbuffer, the 'entries'
of its pages are not all cleared (see rb_reset_cpu()). Then when reducing
the ringbuffer, and if some reduced pages exist dirty 'entries' data, they
will be added into 'cpu_buffer-&gt;overrun' (see rb_remove_pages()), which
cause wrong 'overrun' count and eventually cause the deadloop issue.

To fix it, we need to clear every pages in rb_reset_cpu().

commit 6018b585e8c6fa7d85d4b38d9ce49a5b67be7078 upstream.

Hist triggers can have referenced variables without having direct
variables fields. This can be the case if referenced variables are added
for trigger actions. In this case the newly added references will not
have field variables. Not taking such referenced variables into
consideration can result in a bug where it would be possible to remove
hist trigger with variables being refenced. This will result in a bug
that is easily reproducable like so

$ cd /sys/kernel/tracing
$ echo 'synthetic_sys_enter char[] comm; long id' &gt;&gt; synthetic_events
$ echo 'hist:keys=common_pid.execname,id.syscall:vals=hitcount:comm=common_pid.execname' &gt;&gt; events/raw_syscalls/sys_enter/trigger
$ echo 'hist:keys=common_pid.execname,id.syscall:onmatch(raw_syscalls.sys_enter).synthetic_sys_enter($comm, id)' &gt;&gt; events/raw_syscalls/sys_enter/trigger
$ echo '!hist:keys=common_pid.execname,id.syscall:vals=hitcount:comm=common_pid.execname' &gt;&gt; events/raw_syscalls/sys_enter/trigger

We hit the bug because when second hist trigger has was created
has_hist_vars() returned false because hist trigger did not have
variables. As a result of that save_hist_vars() was not called to add
the trigger to trace_array-&gt;hist_vars. Later on when we attempted to
remove the first histogram find_any_var_ref() failed to detect it is
being used because it did not find the second trigger in hist_vars list.

With this change we wait until trigger actions are created so we can take
into consideration if hist trigger has variable references. Also, now we
check the return value of save_hist_vars() and fail trigger creation if
save_hist_vars() fails.
