In later patches, we're going to change how the inode's ctime field is
used. Switch to using accessor functions instead of raw accesses of
inode->i_ctime.

On ChromeOS we've observed a considerable number of in-use pages filled with
zeros. Today with hibernate it's entirely possible that saveable pages are just
zero filled. Since we're already copying pages word-by-word in do_copy_page it
becomes almost free to determine if a page was completely filled with zeros.
This change introduces a new bitmap which will track these zero pages. If a page
is zero it will not be included in the saved image, instead to track these zero
pages in the image file we will introduce a new flag which we will set on the
packed PFN list. When reading back in the image file we will detect these zero
page PFNs and rebuild the zero page bitmap.
When the image is being loaded through calls to write_next_page if we encounter
a zero page we will silently memset it to 0 and then continue on to the next
page. Given the implementation in snapshot_read_next/snapshot_write_next this
change will be transparent to non-compressed/compressed and swsusp modes of
operation.
To provide some concrete numbers from simple ad-hoc testing, on a device which
was lightly in use we saw that:
PM: hibernation: Image created (964408 pages copied, 548304 zero pages)
Of the approximately 6.2GB of saveable pages 2.2GB (36%) were just zero filled
and could be tracked entirely within the packed PFN list. The savings would
obviously be much lower for lzo compressed images, but even in the case of
compression not copying pages across to the compression threads will still
speed things up. It's also possible that we would see better overall compression
ratios as larger regions of "real data" would improve the compressibility.
Finally, such an approach could dramatically improve swsusp performance
as each one of those zero pages requires a write syscall to reload, by
handling it as part of the packed PFN list we're able to fully avoid
that.

Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
- Swapping the ring buffer for snapshotting (for things like irqsoff)
can crash if the ring buffer is being resized. Disable swapping when
this happens. The missed swap will be reported to the tracer
- Report error if the histogram fails to be created due to an error in
adding a histogram variable, in event_hist_trigger_parse()
- Remove unused declaration of tracing_map_set_field_descr()

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.

When ring_buffer_swap_cpu was called during resize process,
the cpu buffer was swapped in the middle, resulting in incorrect state.
Continuing to run in the wrong state will result in oops.
This issue can be easily reproduced using the following two scripts:
/tmp # cat test1.sh
//#! /bin/sh
for i in `seq 0 100000`
do
echo 2000 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/buffer_size_kb
sleep 0.5
echo 5000 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/buffer_size_kb
sleep 0.5
done
/tmp # cat test2.sh
//#! /bin/sh
for i in `seq 0 100000`
do
echo irqsoff > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
sleep 1
echo nop > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
sleep 1
done
/tmp # ./test1.sh &
/tmp # ./test2.sh &
A typical oops log is as follows, sometimes with other different oops logs.

Currently abandon_console_lock_in_panic() is only used to determine if
the current CPU should immediately release the console lock because
another CPU is in panic. However, later this function will be used by
the CPU to immediately release other resources in this situation.
Rename the function to other_cpu_in_panic(), which is a better
description and does not assume it is related to the console lock.

Currently the global @console_suspended is used to determine if
consoles are in a suspended state. Its primary purpose is to allow
usage of the console_lock when suspended without causing console
printing. It is synchronized by the console_lock.
Rather than relying on the console_lock to determine suspended
state, make it an official per-console state that is set within
console->flags. This allows the state to be queried via SRCU.
Remove @console_suspended. Console printing will still be avoided
when suspended because console_is_usable() returns false when
the new suspended flag is set for that console.

Printing to consoles can be deferred for several reasons:
- explicitly with printk_deferred()
- printk() in NMI context
- recursive printk() calls
The current implementation is not consistent. For printk_deferred(),
irq work is scheduled twice. For NMI und recursive, panic CPU
suppression and caller delays are not properly enforced.
Correct these inconsistencies by consolidating the deferred printing
code so that vprintk_deferred() is the top-level function for
deferred printing and vprintk_emit() will perform whichever irq_work
queueing is appropriate.
Also add kerneldoc for wake_up_klogd() and defer_console_output() to
clarify their differences and appropriate usage.

Currently console_flush_on_panic() will attempt to acquire the
console lock when flushing the buffer on panic. If it fails to
acquire the lock, it continues anyway because this is the last
chance to get any pending records printed.
The reason why the console lock was attempted at all was to
prevent any other CPUs from acquiring the console lock for
printing while the panic CPU was printing. But as of the
previous commit, non-panic CPUs will no longer attempt to
acquire the console lock in a panic situation. Therefore it is
no longer strictly necessary for a panic CPU to acquire the
console lock.
Avoiding taking the console lock when flushing in panic has
the additional benefit of avoiding possible deadlocks due to
semaphore usage in NMI context (semaphores are not NMI-safe)
and avoiding possible deadlocks if another CPU accesses the
semaphore and is stopped while holding one of the semaphore's
internal spinlocks.

When in a panic situation, non-panic CPUs should avoid holding the
console lock so as not to contend with the panic CPU. This is already
implemented with abandon_console_lock_in_panic(), which is checked
after each printed line. However, non-panic CPUs should also avoid
trying to acquire the console lock during a panic.
Modify console_trylock() to fail and console_lock() to block() when
called from a non-panic CPU during a panic.

A semaphore is not NMI-safe, even when using down_trylock(). Both
down_trylock() and up() are using internal spinlocks and up()
might even call wake_up_process().
In the panic() code path it gets even worse because the internal
spinlocks of the semaphore may have been taken by a CPU that has
been stopped.
To reduce the risk of deadlocks caused by the console semaphore in
the panic path, make the following changes:
- First check if any consoles have implemented the unblank()
callback. If not, then there is no reason to take the console
semaphore anyway. (This check is also useful for the non-panic
path since the locking/unlocking of the console lock can be
quite expensive due to console printing.)
- If the panic path is in NMI context, bail out without attempting
to take the console semaphore or calling any unblank() callbacks.
Bailing out is acceptable because console_unblank() would already
bail out if the console semaphore is contended. The alternative of
ignoring the console semaphore and calling the unblank() callbacks
anyway is a bad idea because these callbacks are also not NMI-safe.
If consoles with unblank() callbacks exist and console_unblank() is
called from a non-NMI panic context, it will still attempt a
down_trylock(). This could still result in a deadlock if one of the
stopped CPUs is holding the semaphore internal spinlock. But this
is a risk that the kernel has been (and continues to be) willing
to take.

This work refactors and adds a lightweight extension ("tcx") to the tc BPF
ingress and egress data path side for allowing BPF program management based
on fds via bpf() syscall through the newly added generic multi-prog API.
The main goal behind this work which we also presented at LPC [0] last year
and a recent update at LSF/MM/BPF this year [3] is to support long-awaited
BPF link functionality for tc BPF programs, which allows for a model of safe
ownership and program detachment.
Given the rise in tc BPF users in cloud native environments, this becomes
necessary to avoid hard to debug incidents either through stale leftover
programs or 3rd party applications accidentally stepping on each others toes.
As a recap, a BPF link represents the attachment of a BPF program to a BPF
hook point. The BPF link holds a single reference to keep BPF program alive.
Moreover, hook points do not reference a BPF link, only the application's
fd or pinning does. A BPF link holds meta-data specific to attachment and
implements operations for link creation, (atomic) BPF program update,
detachment and introspection. The motivation for BPF links for tc BPF programs
is multi-fold, for example:
- From Meta: "It's especially important for applications that are deployed
fleet-wide and that don't "control" hosts they are deployed to. If such
application crashes and no one notices and does anything about that, BPF
program will keep running draining resources or even just, say, dropping
packets. We at FB had outages due to such permanent BPF attachment
semantics. With fd-based BPF link we are getting a framework, which allows
safe, auto-detachable behavior by default, unless application explicitly
opts in by pinning the BPF link." [1]
- From Cilium-side the tc BPF programs we attach to host-facing veth devices
and phys devices build the core datapath for Kubernetes Pods, and they
implement forwarding, load-balancing, policy, EDT-management, etc, within
BPF. Currently there is no concept of 'safe' ownership, e.g. we've recently
experienced hard-to-debug issues in a user's staging environment where
another Kubernetes application using tc BPF attached to the same prio/handle
of cls_bpf, accidentally wiping all Cilium-based BPF programs from underneath
it. The goal is to establish a clear/safe ownership model via links which
cannot accidentally be overridden. [0,2]
BPF links for tc can co-exist with non-link attachments, and the semantics are
in line also with XDP links: BPF links cannot replace other BPF links, BPF
links cannot replace non-BPF links, non-BPF links cannot replace BPF links and
lastly only non-BPF links can replace non-BPF links. In case of Cilium, this
would solve mentioned issue of safe ownership model as 3rd party applications
would not be able to accidentally wipe Cilium programs, even if they are not
BPF link aware.
Earlier attempts [4] have tried to integrate BPF links into core tc machinery
to solve cls_bpf, which has been intrusive to the generic tc kernel API with
extensions only specific to cls_bpf and suboptimal/complex since cls_bpf could
be wiped from the qdisc also. Locking a tc BPF program in place this way, is
getting into layering hacks given the two object models are vastly different.
We instead implemented the tcx (tc 'express') layer which is an fd-based tc BPF
attach API, so that the BPF link implementation blends in naturally similar to
other link types which are fd-based and without the need for changing core tc
internal APIs. BPF programs for tc can then be successively migrated from classic
cls_bpf to the new tc BPF link without needing to change the program's source
code, just the BPF loader mechanics for attaching is sufficient.
For the current tc framework, there is no change in behavior with this change
and neither does this change touch on tc core kernel APIs. The gist of this
patch is that the ingress and egress hook have a lightweight, qdisc-less
extension for BPF to attach its tc BPF programs, in other words, a minimal
entry point for tc BPF. The name tcx has been suggested from discussion of
earlier revisions of this work as a good fit, and to more easily differ between
the classic cls_bpf attachment and the fd-based one.
For the ingress and egress tcx points, the device holds a cache-friendly array
with program pointers which is separated from control plane (slow-path) data.
Earlier versions of this work used priority to determine ordering and expression
of dependencies similar as with classic tc, but it was challenged that for
something more future-proof a better user experience is required. Hence this
resulted in the design and development of the generic attach/detach/query API
for multi-progs. See prior patch with its discussion on the API design. tcx is
the first user and later we plan to integrate also others, for example, one
candidate is multi-prog support for XDP which would benefit and have the same
'look and feel' from API perspective.
The goal with tcx is to have maximum compatibility to existing tc BPF programs,
so they don't need to be rewritten specifically. Compatibility to call into
classic tcf_classify() is also provided in order to allow successive migration
or both to cleanly co-exist where needed given its all one logical tc layer and
the tcx plus classic tc cls/act build one logical overall processing pipeline.
tcx supports the simplified return codes TCX_NEXT which is non-terminating (go
to next program) and terminating ones with TCX_PASS, TCX_DROP, TCX_REDIRECT.
The fd-based API is behind a static key, so that when unused the code is also
not entered. The struct tcx_entry's program array is currently static, but
could be made dynamic if necessary at a point in future. The a/b pair swap
design has been chosen so that for detachment there are no allocations which
otherwise could fail.
The work has been tested with tc-testing selftest suite which all passes, as
well as the tc BPF tests from the BPF CI, and also with Cilium's L4LB.
Thanks also to Nikolay Aleksandrov and Martin Lau for in-depth early reviews
of this work.

This adds a generic layer called bpf_mprog which can be reused by different
attachment layers to enable multi-program attachment and dependency resolution.
In-kernel users of the bpf_mprog don't need to care about the dependency
resolution internals, they can just consume it with few API calls.
The initial idea of having a generic API sparked out of discussion [0] from an
earlier revision of this work where tc's priority was reused and exposed via
BPF uapi as a way to coordinate dependencies among tc BPF programs, similar
as-is for classic tc BPF. The feedback was that priority provides a bad user
experience and is hard to use [1], e.g.:
I cannot help but feel that priority logic copy-paste from old tc, netfilter
and friends is done because "that's how things were done in the past". [...]
Priority gets exposed everywhere in uapi all the way to bpftool when it's
right there for users to understand. And that's the main problem with it.
The user don't want to and don't need to be aware of it, but uapi forces them
to pick the priority. [...] Your cover letter [0] example proves that in
real life different service pick the same priority. They simply don't know
any better. Priority is an unnecessary magic that apps _have_ to pick, so
they just copy-paste and everyone ends up using the same.
The course of the discussion showed more and more the need for a generic,
reusable API where the "same look and feel" can be applied for various other
program types beyond just tc BPF, for example XDP today does not have multi-
program support in kernel, but also there was interest around this API for
improving management of cgroup program types. Such common multi-program
management concept is useful for BPF management daemons or user space BPF
applications coordinating internally about their attachments.
Both from Cilium and Meta side [2], we've collected the following requirements
for a generic attach/detach/query API for multi-progs which has been implemented
as part of this work:
- Support prog-based attach/detach and link API
- Dependency directives (can also be combined):
- BPF_F_{BEFORE,AFTER} with relative_{fd,id} which can be {prog,link,none}
- BPF_F_ID flag as {fd,id} toggle; the rationale for id is so that user
space application does not need CAP_SYS_ADMIN to retrieve foreign fds
via bpf_*_get_fd_by_id()
- BPF_F_LINK flag as {prog,link} toggle
- If relative_{fd,id} is none, then BPF_F_BEFORE will just prepend, and
BPF_F_AFTER will just append for attaching
- Enforced only at attach time
- BPF_F_REPLACE with replace_bpf_fd which can be prog, links have their
own infra for replacing their internal prog
- If no flags are set, then it's default append behavior for attaching
- Internal revision counter and optionally being able to pass expected_revision
- User space application can query current state with revision, and pass it
along for attachment to assert current state before doing updates
- Query also gets extension for link_ids array and link_attach_flags:
- prog_ids are always filled with program IDs
- link_ids are filled with link IDs when link was used, otherwise 0
- {prog,link}_attach_flags for holding {prog,link}-specific flags
- Must be easy to integrate/reuse for in-kernel users
The uapi-side changes needed for supporting bpf_mprog are rather minimal,
consisting of the additions of the attachment flags, revision counter, and
expanding existing union with relative_{fd,id} member.
The bpf_mprog framework consists of an bpf_mprog_entry object which holds
an array of bpf_mprog_fp (fast-path structure). The bpf_mprog_cp (control-path
structure) is part of bpf_mprog_bundle. Both have been separated, so that
fast-path gets efficient packing of bpf_prog pointers for maximum cache
efficiency. Also, array has been chosen instead of linked list or other
structures to remove unnecessary indirections for a fast point-to-entry in
tc for BPF.
The bpf_mprog_entry comes as a pair via bpf_mprog_bundle so that in case of
updates the peer bpf_mprog_entry is populated and then just swapped which
avoids additional allocations that could otherwise fail, for example, in
detach case. bpf_mprog_{fp,cp} arrays are currently static, but they could
be converted to dynamic allocation if necessary at a point in future.
Locking is deferred to the in-kernel user of bpf_mprog, for example, in case
of tcx which uses this API in the next patch, it piggybacks on rtnl.
An extensive test suite for checking all aspects of this API for prog-based
attach/detach and link API comes as BPF selftests in this series.
Thanks also to Andrii Nakryiko for early API discussions wrt Meta's BPF prog
management.

Add the BTF id of struct bpf_map to the reg2btf_ids array. This makes the
values of the CONST_PTR_TO_MAP type to be considered as trusted by kfuncs.
This, in turn, allows users to execute trusted kfuncs which accept `struct
bpf_map *` arguments from non-tracing programs.
While exporting the btf_bpf_map_id variable, save some bytes by defining
it as BTF_ID_LIST_GLOBAL_SINGLE (which is u32[1]) and not as BTF_ID_LIST
(which is u32[64]).

Removes the FAIR_SLEEPERS code in favour of the new LAG based
placement.
Specifically, the whole FAIR_SLEEPER thing was a very crude
approximation to make up for the lack of lag based placement,
specifically the 'service owed' part. This is important for things
like 'starve' and 'hackbench'.
One side effect of FAIR_SLEEPER is that it caused 'small' unfairness,
specifically, by always ignoring up-to 'thresh' sleeptime it would
have a 50%/50% time distribution for a 50% sleeper vs a 100% runner,
while strictly speaking this should (of course) result in a 33%/67%
split (as CFS will also do if the sleep period exceeds 'thresh').

Where CFS is currently a WFQ based scheduler with only a single knob,
the weight. The addition of a second, latency oriented parameter,
makes something like WF2Q or EEVDF based a much better fit.
Specifically, EEVDF does EDF like scheduling in the left half of the
tree -- those entities that are owed service. Except because this is a
virtual time scheduler, the deadlines are in virtual time as well,
which is what allows over-subscription.
EEVDF has two parameters:
- weight, or time-slope: which is mapped to nice just as before
- request size, or slice length: which is used to compute
the virtual deadline as: vd_i = ve_i + r_i/w_i
Basically, by setting a smaller slice, the deadline will be earlier
and the task will be more eligible and ran earlier.
Tick driven preemption is driven by request/slice completion; while
wakeup preemption is driven by the deadline.
Because the tree is now effectively an interval tree, and the
selection is no longer 'leftmost', over-scheduling is less of a
problem.

In order to move to an eligibility based scheduling policy, we need
to have a better approximation of the ideal scheduler.
Specifically, for a virtual time weighted fair queueing based
scheduler the ideal scheduler will be the weighted average of the
individual virtual runtimes (math in the comment).
As such, compute the weighted average to approximate the ideal
scheduler -- note that the approximation is in the individual task
behaviour, which isn't strictly conformant.
Specifically consider adding a task with a vruntime left of center, in
this case the average will move backwards in time -- something the
ideal scheduler would of course never do.

As described by Kumar in [0], in shared ownership scenarios it is
necessary to do runtime tracking of {rb,list} node ownership - and
synchronize updates using this ownership information - in order to
prevent races. This patch adds an 'owner' field to struct bpf_list_node
and bpf_rb_node to implement such runtime tracking.
The owner field is a void * that describes the ownership state of a
node. It can have the following values:
NULL - the node is not owned by any data structure
BPF_PTR_POISON - the node is in the process of being added to a data
structure
ptr_to_root - the pointee is a data structure 'root'
(bpf_rb_root / bpf_list_head) which owns this node
The field is initially NULL (set by bpf_obj_init_field default behavior)
and transitions states in the following sequence:
Insertion: NULL -> BPF_PTR_POISON -> ptr_to_root
Removal: ptr_to_root -> NULL
Before a node has been successfully inserted, it is not protected by any
root's lock, and therefore two programs can attempt to add the same node
to different roots simultaneously. For this reason the intermediate
BPF_PTR_POISON state is necessary. For removal, the node is protected
by some root's lock so this intermediate hop isn't necessary.
Note that bpf_list_pop_{front,back} helpers don't need to check owner
before removing as the node-to-be-removed is not passed in as input and
is instead taken directly from the list. Do the check anyways and
WARN_ON_ONCE in this unexpected scenario.
Selftest changes in this patch are entirely mechanical: some BTF
tests have hardcoded struct sizes for structs that contain
bpf_{list,rb}_node fields, those were adjusted to account for the new
sizes. Selftest additions to validate the owner field are added in a
further patch in the series.

Structs bpf_rb_node and bpf_list_node are opaquely defined in
uapi/linux/bpf.h, as BPF program writers are not expected to touch their
fields - nor does the verifier allow them to do so.
Currently these structs are simple wrappers around structs rb_node and
list_head and linked_list / rbtree implementation just casts and passes
to library functions for those data structures. Later patches in this
series, though, will add an "owner" field to bpf_{rb,list}_node, such
that they're not just wrapping an underlying node type. Moreover, the
bpf linked_list and rbtree implementations will deal with these owner
pointers directly in a few different places.
To avoid having to do
void *owner = (void*)bpf_list_node + sizeof(struct list_head)
with opaque UAPI node types, add bpf_{list,rb}_node_kern struct
definitions to internal headers and modify linked_list and rbtree to use
the internal types where appropriate.

While the check_max_stack_depth function explores call chains emanating
from the main prog, which is typically enough to cover all possible call
chains, it doesn't explore those rooted at async callbacks unless the
async callback will have been directly called, since unlike non-async
callbacks it skips their instruction exploration as they don't
contribute to stack depth.
It could be the case that the async callback leads to a callchain which
exceeds the stack depth, but this is never reachable while only
exploring the entry point from main subprog. Hence, repeat the check for
the main subprog *and* all async callbacks marked by the symbolic
execution pass of the verifier, as execution of the program may begin at
any of them.
Consider functions with following stack depths:
main: 256
async: 256
foo: 256
main:
rX = async
bpf_timer_set_callback(...)
async:
foo()
Here, async is not descended as it does not contribute to stack depth of
main (since it is referenced using bpf_pseudo_func and not
bpf_pseudo_call). However, when async is invoked asynchronously, it will
end up breaching the MAX_BPF_STACK limit by calling foo.
Hence, in addition to main, we also need to explore call chains
beginning at all async callback subprogs in a program.

the code performs a few checks and then pushes the frame to the frame
stack, except the case of async callbacks. If the async callback case
causes the loop iteration to be skipped, the idx assignment will be
incorrect on the next iteration of the loop. The value stored in the
frame stack (as the subprogno of the current subprog) will be incorrect.
This leads to incorrect checks and incorrect tail_call_reachable
marking. Save the target subprog in a new variable and only assign to
idx once we are done with the is_async_cb check which may skip pushing
of frame to the frame stack and subsequent stack depth checks and tail
call markings.
Fixes: 7ddc80a476c2 ("bpf: Teach stack depth check about async callbacks.")

seccomp_unotify allows more privileged processes do actions on behalf
of less privileged processes.
In many cases, the workflow is fully synchronous. It means a target
process triggers a system call and passes controls to a supervisor
process that handles the system call and returns controls to the target
process. In this context, "synchronous" means that only one process is
running and another one is waiting.
There is the WF_CURRENT_CPU flag that is used to advise the scheduler to
move the wakee to the current CPU. For such synchronous workflows, it
makes context switches a few times faster.
Right now, each interaction takes 12µs. With this patch, it takes about
3µs.
This change introduce the SECCOMP_USER_NOTIF_FD_SYNC_WAKE_UP flag that
it used to enable the sync mode.

Add complete_on_current_cpu, wake_up_poll_on_current_cpu helpers to wake
up tasks on the current CPU.
These two helpers are useful when the task needs to make a synchronous context
switch to another task. In this context, synchronous means it wakes up the
target task and falls asleep right after that.
One example of such workloads is seccomp user notifies. This mechanism allows
the supervisor process handles system calls on behalf of a target process.
While the supervisor is handling an intercepted system call, the target process
will be blocked in the kernel, waiting for a response to come back.
On-CPU context switches are much faster than regular ones.

Add WF_CURRENT_CPU wake flag that advices the scheduler to
move the wakee to the current CPU. This is useful for fast on-CPU
context switching use cases.
In addition, make ttwu external rather than static so that
the flag could be passed to it from outside of sched/core.c.

The main reason is to use new wake_up helpers that will be added in the
following patches. But here are a few other reasons:
* if we use two different ways, we always need to call them both. This
patch fixes seccomp_notify_recv where we forgot to call wake_up_poll
in the error path.
* If we use one primitive, we can control how many waiters are woken up
for each request. Our goal is to wake up just one that will handle a
request. Right now, wake_up_poll can wake up one waiter and
up(&match->notif->request) can wake up one more.

Somehow PR_GET_AUXV got added into PR_MCE_KILL's switch when the patch was
applied [1].
Thus move it out of the switch, to the place the patch added it.
In the recently released v6.4 kernel some user could, in principle, be
already using this feature by mapping the right page and passing the
PR_GET_AUXV constant as a pointer:
prctl(PR_MCE_KILL, PR_GET_AUXV, ...)
So this does change the behavior for users. We could keep the bug since
the other subcases in PR_MCE_KILL (PR_MCE_KILL_CLEAR and PR_MCE_KILL_SET)
do not overlap.
However, v6.4 may be recent enough (2 weeks old) that moving the lines
(rather than just adding a new case) does not break anybody? Moreover,
the documentation in man-pages was just committed today [2].

cgroup_create() creates cgrp and assigns the kernfs_node to cgrp->kn,
then cgroup_mkdir() populates base and csses cft file by calling
css_populate_dir() and cgroup_apply_control_enable() with a valid
cgrp->kn. Check for NULL cgrp->kn, will always be false, remove it.
