This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using

    git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
        xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'

to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.

Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.

For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:

Single allocations:	kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)

Array allocations:	kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)

Flex array allocations:	kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)

(where TYPE may also be *VAR)

The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

The saved_cmdlines_buffer struct is already zeroed by memset(). It's
redundant to initialize s->cmdline_idx to 0.

The pid_max sysctl is a global value. For a long time the default value
has been 65535 and during the pidfd dicussions Linus proposed to bump
pid_max by default (cf. [1]). Based on this discussion systemd started
bumping pid_max to 2^22. So all new systems now run with a very high
pid_max limit with some distros having also backported that change.
The decision to bump pid_max is obviously correct. It just doesn't make
a lot of sense nowadays to enforce such a low pid number. There's
sufficient tooling to make selecting specific processes without typing
really large pid numbers available.

In any case, there are workloads that have expections about how large
pid numbers they accept. Either for historical reasons or architectural
reasons. One concreate example is the 32-bit version of Android's bionic
libc which requires pid numbers less than 65536. There are workloads
where it is run in a 32-bit container on a 64-bit kernel. If the host
has a pid_max value greater than 65535 the libc will abort thread
creation because of size assumptions of pthread_mutex_t.

That's a fairly specific use-case however, in general specific workloads
that are moved into containers running on a host with a new kernel and a
new systemd can run into issues with large pid_max values. Obviously
making assumptions about the size of the allocated pid is suboptimal but
we have userspace that does it.

Of course, giving containers the ability to restrict the number of
processes in their respective pid namespace indepent of the global limit
through pid_max is something desirable in itself and comes in handy in
general.

Independent of motivating use-cases the existence of pid namespaces
makes this also a good semantical extension and there have been prior
proposals pushing in a similar direction.
The trick here is to minimize the risk of regressions which I think is
doable. The fact that pid namespaces are hierarchical will help us here.

What we mostly care about is that when the host sets a low pid_max
limit, say (crazy number) 100 that no descendant pid namespace can
allocate a higher pid number in its namespace. Since pid allocation is
hierarchial this can be ensured by checking each pid allocation against
the pid namespace's pid_max limit. This means if the allocation in the
descendant pid namespace succeeds, the ancestor pid namespace can reject
it. If the ancestor pid namespace has a higher limit than the descendant
pid namespace the descendant pid namespace will reject the pid
allocation. The ancestor pid namespace will obviously not care about
this.
All in all this means pid_max continues to enforce a system wide limit
on the number of processes but allows pid namespaces sufficient leeway
in handling workloads with assumptions about pid values and allows
containers to restrict the number of processes in a pid namespace
through the pid_max interface.

- rebased from 5.14-rc1
- a few fixes (missing ns_free_inum on error path, missing initialization, etc)
- permission check changes in pid_table_root_permissions
- unsigned int pid_max -> int pid_max (keep pid_max type as it was)
- add READ_ONCE in alloc_pid() as suggested by Christian
- rebased from 6.7 and take into account:
 * sysctl: treewide: drop unused argument ctl_table_root::set_ownership(table)
 * sysctl: treewide: constify ctl_table_header::ctl_table_arg
 * pidfd: add pidfs
 * tracing: Move saved_cmdline code into trace_sched_switch.c

The code that handles saved_cmdlines is split between the trace.c file and
the trace_sched_switch.c. There's some history to this. The
trace_sched_switch.c was originally created to handle the sched_switch
tracer that was deprecated due to sched_switch trace event making it
obsolete. But that file did not get deleted as it had some code to help
with saved_cmdlines. But trace.c has grown tremendously since then. Just
move all the saved_cmdlines code into trace_sched_switch.c as that's the
only reason that file still exists, and trace.c has gotten too big.

No functional changes.

Commit fa2c3254d7cf (sched/tracing: Don't re-read p->state when emitting
sched_switch event, 2022-01-20) added a new prev_state argument to the
sched_switch tracepoint, before the prev task_struct pointer.

This reordering of arguments broke BPF programs that use the raw
tracepoint (e.g. tp_btf programs). The type of the second argument has
changed and existing programs that assume a task_struct* argument
(e.g. for bpf_task_storage access) will now fail to verify.

If we instead append the new argument to the end, all existing programs
would continue to work and can conditionally extract the prev_state
argument on supported kernel versions.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:

 - New user_events interface. User space can register an event with the
   kernel describing the format of the event. Then it will receive a
   byte in a page mapping that it can check against. A privileged task
   can then enable that event like any other event, which will change
   the mapped byte to true, telling the user space application to start
   writing the event to the tracing buffer.

 - Add new "ftrace_boot_snapshot" kernel command line parameter. When
   set, the tracing buffer will be saved in the snapshot buffer at boot
   up when the kernel hands things over to user space. This will keep
   the traces that happened at boot up available even if user space boot
   up has tracing as well.

 - Have TRACE_EVENT_ENUM() also update trace event field type
   descriptions. Thus if a static array defines its size with an enum,
   the user space trace event parsers can still know how to parse that
   array.

 - Add new TRACE_CUSTOM_EVENT() macro. This acts the same as the
   TRACE_EVENT() macro, but will attach to an existing tracepoint. This
   will make one tracepoint be able to trace different content and not
   be stuck at only what the original TRACE_EVENT() macro exports.

 - Fixes to tracing error logging.

 - Better saving of cmdlines to PIDs when tracing (use the wakeup events
   for mapping).

As of commit

  c6e7bd7afaeb ("sched/core: Optimize ttwu() spinning on p->on_cpu")

the following sequence becomes possible:

		      p->__state = TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE;
		      __schedule()
			deactivate_task(p);
  ttwu()
    READ !p->on_rq
    p->__state=TASK_WAKING
			trace_sched_switch()
			  __trace_sched_switch_state()
			    task_state_index()
			      return 0;

TASK_WAKING isn't in TASK_REPORT, so the task appears as TASK_RUNNING in
the trace event.

Prevent this by pushing the value read from __schedule() down the trace
event.
