<id>b5b1404d0815894de0690de8a1ab58269e56eae6</id>
<content type='text'>
This is purely a preparatory patch for upcoming changes during the 4.19
merge window.

We have a function called "boot_cpu_state_init()" that isn't really
about the bootup cpu state: that is done much earlier by the similarly
named "boot_cpu_init()" (note lack of "state" in name).

This function initializes some hotplug CPU state, and needs to run after
the percpu data has been properly initialized.  It even has a comment to
that effect.

Except it _doesn't_ actually run after the percpu data has been properly
initialized.  On x86 it happens to do that, but on at least arm and
arm64, the percpu base pointers are initialized by the arch-specific
'smp_prepare_boot_cpu()' hook, which ran _after_ boot_cpu_state_init().

This had some unexpected results, and in particular we have a patch
pending for the merge window that did the obvious cleanup of using
'this_cpu_write()' in the cpu hotplug init code:

  -       per_cpu_ptr(&amp;cpuhp_state, smp_processor_id())-&gt;state = CPUHP_ONLINE;
  +       this_cpu_write(cpuhp_state.state, CPUHP_ONLINE);

which is obviously the right thing to do.  Except because of the
ordering issue, it actually failed miserably and unexpectedly on arm64.

So this just fixes the ordering, and changes the name of the function to
be 'boot_cpu_hotplug_init()' to make it obvious that it's about cpu
hotplug state, because the core CPU state was supposed to have already
been done earlier.

Marked for stable, since the (not yet merged) patch that will show this
problem is marked for stable.

Like cpumap teardown, the devmap teardown code also flush remaining
xdp_frames, via bq_xmit_all() in case map entry is removed.  The code

When removing a cpumap entry, a number of syncronization steps happen.
Eventually the teardown code __cpu_map_entry_free is invoked from/via
call_rcu.

The teardown code __cpu_map_entry_free() flushes remaining xdp_frames,
by invoking bq_flush_to_queue, which calls xdp_return_frame_rx_napi().
The issues is that the teardown code is not running in the RX NAPI
code path.  Thus, it is not allowed to invoke the NAPI variant of
xdp_return_frame.

This bug was found and triggered by using the --stress-mode option to
the samples/bpf program xdp_redirect_cpu.  It is hard to trigger,
because the ptr_ring have to be full and cpumap bulk queue max
contains 8 packets, and a remote CPU is racing to empty the ptr_ring
queue.

In bpf_tcp_sendmsg() the sk_alloc_sg() may fail. In the case of
ENOMEM, it may also mean that we've partially filled the scatterlist
entries with pages. Later jumping to sk_stream_wait_memory()
we could further fail with an error for several reasons, however
we miss to call free_start_sg() if the local sk_msg_buff was used.

While working on bpf_tcp_sendmsg() code, I noticed that when a
sk-&gt;sk_err is set we error out with err = sk-&gt;sk_err. However
this is problematic since sk-&gt;sk_err is a positive error value
and therefore we will neither go into sk_stream_error() nor will
we report an error back to user space. I had this case with EPIPE
and user space was thinking sendmsg() succeeded since EPIPE is
a positive value, thinking we submitted 32 bytes. Fix it by
negating the sk-&gt;sk_err value.

<content type='text'>
The full nohz tick is reprogrammed in irq_exit() only if the exit is not in
a nesting interrupt. This stands as an optimization: whether a hardirq or a
softirq is interrupted, the tick is going to be reprogrammed when necessary
at the end of the inner interrupt, with even potential new updates on the
timer queue.

When soft interrupts are interrupted, it's assumed that they are executing
on the tail of an interrupt return. In that case tick_nohz_irq_exit() is
called after softirq processing to take care of the tick reprogramming.

But the assumption is wrong: softirqs can be processed inline as well, ie:
outside of an interrupt, like in a call to local_bh_enable() or from
ksoftirqd.

Inline softirqs don't reprogram the tick once they are done, as opposed to
interrupt tail softirq processing. So if a tick interrupts an inline
softirq processing, the next timer will neither be reprogrammed from the
interrupting tick's irq_exit() nor after the interrupted softirq
processing. This situation may leave the tick unprogrammed while timers are
armed.

To fix this, simply keep reprogramming the tick even if a softirq has been
interrupted. That can be optimized further, but for now correctness is more
important.

Note that new timers enqueued in nohz_full mode after a softirq gets
interrupted will still be handled just fine through self-IPIs triggered by
the timer code.

<title>genirq: Make force irq threading setup more robust</title>

<content type='text'>
The support of force threading interrupts which are set up with both a
primary and a threaded handler wreckaged the setup of regular requested
threaded interrupts (primary handler == NULL).

The reason is that it does not check whether the primary handler is set to
the default handler which wakes the handler thread. Instead it replaces the
thread handler with the primary handler as it would do with force threaded
interrupts which have been requested via request_irq(). So both the primary
and the thread handler become the same which then triggers the warnon that
the thread handler tries to wakeup a not configured secondary thread.

Fortunately this only happens when the driver omits the IRQF_ONESHOT flag
when requesting the threaded interrupt, which is normaly caught by the
sanity checks when force irq threading is disabled.

Fix it by skipping the force threading setup when a regular threaded
interrupt is requested. As a consequence the interrupt request which lacks
the IRQ_ONESHOT flag is rejected correctly instead of silently wreckaging
it.

Pull audit fix from Paul Moore:
 "A single small audit fix to guard against memory allocation failures
  when logging information about a kernel module load.

  It's small, easy to understand, and self-contained; while nothing is
  zero risk, this should be pretty low"

* tag 'audit-pr-20180731' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pcmoore/audit:
  audit: fix potential null dereference 'context-&gt;module.name'

local_timer_softirq_pending() checks whether the timer softirq is
pending with: local_softirq_pending() &amp; TIMER_SOFTIRQ.

This is wrong because TIMER_SOFTIRQ is the softirq number and not a
bitmask. So the test checks for the wrong bit.

Use BIT(TIMER_SOFTIRQ) instead.
