hrtimers: Handle CPU state correctly on hotplug

2025-01-23T16:21:17+00:00

commit 2f8dea1692eef2b7ba6a256246ed82c365fdc686 upstream.

Consider a scenario where a CPU transitions from CPUHP_ONLINE to halfway
through a CPU hotunplug down to CPUHP_HRTIMERS_PREPARE, and then back to
CPUHP_ONLINE:

Since hrtimers_prepare_cpu() does not run, cpu_base.hres_active remains set
to 1 throughout. However, during a CPU unplug operation, the tick and the
clockevents are shut down at CPUHP_AP_TICK_DYING. On return to the online
state, for instance CFS incorrectly assumes that the hrtick is already
active, and the chance of the clockevent device to transition to oneshot
mode is also lost forever for the CPU, unless it goes back to a lower state
than CPUHP_HRTIMERS_PREPARE once.

This round-trip reveals another issue; cpu_base.online is not set to 1
after the transition, which appears as a WARN_ON_ONCE in enqueue_hrtimer().

Aside of that, the bulk of the per CPU state is not reset either, which
means there are dangling pointers in the worst case.

Address this by adding a corresponding startup() callback, which resets the
stale per CPU state and sets the online flag.

[ tglx: Make the new callback unconditionally available, remove the online
  	modification in the prepare() callback and clear the remaining
  	state in the starting callback instead of the prepare callback ]

kheaders: Ignore silly-rename files

2025-01-23T16:21:13+00:00

[ Upstream commit 973b710b8821c3401ad7a25360c89e94b26884ac ]

Tell tar to ignore silly-rename files (".__afs*" and ".nfs*") when building
the header archive. These occur when a file that is open is unlinked
locally, but hasn't yet been closed. Such files are visible to the user
via the getdents() syscall and so programs may want to do things with them.

During the kernel build, such files may be made during the processing of
header files and the cleanup may get deferred by fput() which may result in
tar seeing these files when it reads the directory, but they may have
disappeared by the time it tries to open them, causing tar to fail with an
error. Further, we don't want to include them in the tarball if they still
exist.

With CONFIG_HEADERS_INSTALL=y, something like the following may be seen:

find: './kernel/.tmp_cpio_dir/include/dt-bindings/reset/.__afs2080': No such file or directory
tar: ./include/linux/greybus/.__afs3C95: File removed before we read it

The find warning doesn't seem to cause a problem.

Fix this by telling tar when called from in gen_kheaders.sh to exclude such
files. This only affects afs and nfs; cifs uses the Windows Hidden
attribute to prevent the file from being seen.

workqueue: Do not warn when cancelling WQ_MEM_RECLAIM work from !WQ_MEM_RECLAIM worker

2025-01-17T12:36:25+00:00

The intent of the verifcation done in check_flush_depedency is to ensure
forward progress during memory reclaim, by flagging cases when either a
memory reclaim process, or a memory reclaim work item is flushed from a
context not marked as memory reclaim safe.

This is correct when flushing, but when called from the
cancel(_delayed)_work_sync() paths it is a false positive because work is
either already running, or will not be running at all. Therefore
cancelling it is safe and we can relax the warning criteria by letting the
helper know of the calling context.

workqueue: Update lock debugging code

2025-01-17T12:36:25+00:00

[ Upstream commit c35aea39d1e106f61fd2130f0d32a3bac8bd4570 ]

These changes are in preparation of BH workqueue which will execute work
items from BH context.

- Update lock and RCU depth checks in process_one_work() so that it
  remembers and checks against the starting depths and prints out the depth
  changes.

- Factor out lockdep annotations in the flush paths into
  touch_{wq|work}_lockdep_map(). The work->lockdep_map touching is moved
  from __flush_work() to its callee - start_flush_work(). This brings it
  closer to the wq counterpart and will allow testing the associated wq's
  flags which will be needed to support BH workqueues. This is not expected
  to cause any functional changes.

workqueue: Add rcu lock check at the end of work item execution

2025-01-17T12:36:25+00:00

[ Upstream commit 1a65a6d17cbc58e1aeffb2be962acce49efbef9c ]

Currently the workqueue just checks the atomic and locking states after work
execution ends. However, sometimes, a work item may not unlock rcu after
acquiring rcu_read_lock(). And as a result, it would cause rcu stall, but
the rcu stall warning can not dump the work func, because the work has
finished.

In order to quickly discover those works that do not call rcu_read_unlock()
after rcu_read_lock(), add the rcu lock check.

Use rcu_preempt_depth() to check the work's rcu status. Normally, this value
is 0. If this value is bigger than 0, it means the work are still holding
rcu lock. If so, print err info and the work func.

tj: Reworded the description for clarity. Minor formatting tweak.

bpf: fix potential error return

The bpf_remove_insns() function returns WARN_ON_ONCE(error), where
error is a result of bpf_adj_branches(), and thus should be always 0
However, if for any reason it is not 0, then it will be converted to
boolean by WARN_ON_ONCE and returned to user space as 1, not an actual
error value. Fix this by returning the original err after the WARN check.

tracing: Check "%s" dereference via the field and not the TP_printk format

2025-01-09T12:31:55+00:00

[ Upstream commit afd2627f727b89496d79a6b934a025fc916d4ded ]

The TP_printk() portion of a trace event is executed at the time a event
is read from the trace. This can happen seconds, minutes, hours, days,
months, years possibly later since the event was recorded. If the print
format contains a dereference to a string via "%s", and that string was
allocated, there's a chance that string could be freed before it is read
by the trace file.

To protect against such bugs, there are two functions that verify the
event. The first one is test_event_printk(), which is called when the
event is created. It reads the TP_printk() format as well as its arguments
to make sure nothing may be dereferencing a pointer that was not copied
into the ring buffer along with the event. If it is, it will trigger a
WARN_ON().

For strings that use "%s", it is not so easy. The string may not reside in
the ring buffer but may still be valid. Strings that are static and part
of the kernel proper which will not be freed for the life of the running
system, are safe to dereference. But to know if it is a pointer to a
static string or to something on the heap can not be determined until the
event is triggered.

This brings us to the second function that tests for the bad dereferencing
of strings, trace_check_vprintf(). It would walk through the printf format
looking for "%s", and when it finds it, it would validate that the pointer
is safe to read. If not, it would produces a WARN_ON() as well and write
into the ring buffer "[UNSAFE-MEMORY]".

The problem with this is how it used va_list to have vsnprintf() handle
all the cases that it didn't need to check. Instead of re-implementing
vsnprintf(), it would make a copy of the format up to the %s part, and
call vsnprintf() with the current va_list ap variable, where the ap would
then be ready to point at the string in question.

For architectures that passed va_list by reference this was possible. For
architectures that passed it by copy it was not. A test_can_verify()
function was used to differentiate between the two, and if it wasn't
possible, it would disable it.

Even for architectures where this was feasible, it was a stretch to rely
on such a method that is undocumented, and could cause issues later on
with new optimizations of the compiler.

Instead, the first function test_event_printk() was updated to look at
"%s" as well. If the "%s" argument is a pointer outside the event in the
ring buffer, it would find the field type of the event that is the problem
and mark the structure with a new flag called "needs_test". The event
itself will be marked by TRACE_EVENT_FL_TEST_STR to let it be known that
this event has a field that needs to be verified before the event can be
printed using the printf format.

When the event fields are created from the field type structure, the
fields would copy the field type's "needs_test" value.

Finally, before being printed, a new function ignore_event() is called
which will check if the event has the TEST_STR flag set (if not, it
returns false). If the flag is set, it then iterates through the events
fields looking for the ones that have the "needs_test" flag set.

Then it uses the offset field from the field structure to find the pointer
in the ring buffer event. It runs the tests to make sure that pointer is
safe to print and if not, it triggers the WARN_ON() and also adds to the
trace output that the event in question has an unsafe memory access.

The ignore_event() makes the trace_check_vprintf() obsolete so it is
removed.

tracing: Fix trace_check_vprintf() when tp_printk is used

2025-01-09T12:31:55+00:00

[ Upstream commit 50a3242d84ee1625b0bfef29b95f935958dccfbe ]

When the tp_printk kernel command line is used, the trace events go
directly to printk(). It is still checked via the trace_check_vprintf()
function to make sure the pointers of the trace event are legit.

The addition of reading buffers from previous boots required adding a
delta between the addresses of the previous boot and the current boot so
that the pointers in the old buffer can still be used. But this required
adding a trace_array pointer to acquire the delta offsets.

The tp_printk code does not provide a trace_array (tr) pointer, so when
the offsets were examined, a NULL pointer dereference happened and the
kernel crashed.

If the trace_array does not exist, just default the delta offsets to zero,
as that also means the trace event is not being read from a previous boot.
