2019-04-05genirq/timings: Add array suffix computation codeDaniel Lezcano
The previous approach based on the variance was discarding values from the timings when they were considered as anomalies as stated by the normal law statistical model. However in the interrupt life, there can be multiple anomalies due to the nature of the device generating the interrupts, and most of the time a repeating pattern can be observed, that is particulary true for network, console, MMC or SSD devices. The variance approach missed the patterns and it was only able to deal with the interrupt coming in regular intervals, thus reducing considerably the scope of what is predictable. In order to find out the repeating patterns, the interrupt intervals are grouped in a ilog2 basis to create a suite of numbers with small amplitude. Every group contains an exponential moving average of the values belonging to the group. The array suffix, a data structure used for string searching, data compression, etc ..., is built from the suite of numbers and the suffixes are then searched in this suite. The tests showed the algorithm is able to find all repeating patterns, as well as regular interval in less than 1us on x86-i7.

2019-04-05genirq/timings: Remove variance computation codeDaniel Lezcano
The variance computation did not provide the expected results and will be replaced with a different approach to compute the next interrupt based on the array suffixes derived algorithm. There is no good way to transform the variance code to the new algorithm, so for ease of review remove the existing code first.

2019-03-24genirq: Prevent use-after-free and work list corruptionPrasad Sodagudi
When irq_set_affinity_notifier() replaces the notifier, then the reference count on the old notifier is dropped which causes it to be freed. But nothing ensures that the old notifier is not longer queued in the work list. If it is queued this results in a use after free and possibly in work list corruption. Ensure that the work is canceled before the reference is dropped.

Then allow browsing the samples using 'perf script' as part of the hist entry context menu. This automatically adds the right filters, so only the thread or CPU of the sample is displayed.

As a consequence the kernel crashes on architectures with strict alignment requirements in handle_futex_death() when trying to cmpxchg() on an unaligned futex address which was retrieved from the robust list.

2019-03-19sched/fair: Skip LLC NOHZ logic for asymmetric systemsValentin Schneider
The LLC NOHZ condition will become true as soon as >=2 CPUs in a single LLC domain are busy. On big.LITTLE systems, this translates to two or more CPUs of a "cluster" (big or LITTLE) being busy. Issuing a NOHZ kick in these conditions isn't desired for asymmetric systems, as if the busy CPUs can provide enough compute capacity to the running tasks, then we can leave the NOHZ CPUs in peace. Skip the LLC NOHZ condition for asymmetric systems, and rely on nr_running & capacity checks to trigger NOHZ kicks when the system actually needs them.

2019-03-19sched/fair: Tune down misfit NOHZ kicksValentin Schneider
In this commit: 3b1baa6496e6 ("sched/fair: Add 'group_misfit_task' load-balance type") we set rq->misfit_task_load whenever the current running task has a utilization greater than 80% of rq->cpu_capacity. A non-zero value in this field enables misfit load balancing. However, if the task being looked at is already running on a CPU of highest capacity, there's nothing more we can do for it. We can currently spot this in update_sd_pick_busiest(), which prevents us from selecting a sched_group of group_type == group_misfit_task as the busiest group, but we don't do any of that in nohz_balancer_kick(). This means that we could repeatedly kick NOHZ CPUs when there's no improvements in terms of load balance to be done. Introduce a check_misfit_status() helper that returns true iff there is a CPU in the system that could give more CPU capacity to a rq's misfit task - IOW, there exists a CPU of higher capacity_orig or the rq's CPU is severely pressured by rt/IRQ.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux Pull pidfd system call from Christian Brauner: "This introduces the ability to use file descriptors from /proc/<pid>/ as stable handles on struct pid. Even if a pid is recycled the handle will not change. For a start these fds can be used to send signals to the processes they refer to. With the ability to use /proc/<pid> fds as stable handles on struct pid we can fix a long-standing issue where after a process has exited its pid can be reused by another process. If a caller sends a signal to a reused pid it will end up signaling the wrong process. With this patchset we enable a variety of use cases. One obvious example is that we can now safely delegate an important part of process management - sending signals - to processes other than the parent of a given process by sending file descriptors around via scm rights and not fearing that the given process will have been recycled in the meantime. It also allows for easy testing whether a given process is still alive or not by sending signal 0 to a pidfd which is quite handy. There has been some interest in this feature e.g. from systems management (systemd, glibc) and container managers. I have requested and gotten comments from glibc to make sure that this syscall is suitable for their needs as well. In the future I expect it to take on most other pid-based signal syscalls. But such features are left for the future once they are needed. This has been sitting in linux-next for quite a while and has not caused any issues. It comes with selftests which verify basic functionality and also test that a recycled pid cannot be signaled via a pidfd. Jon has written about a prior version of this patchset. It should cover the basic functionality since not a lot has changed since then: https://lwn.net/Articles/773459/ The commit message for the syscall itself is extensively documenting the syscall, including it's functionality and extensibility" * tag 'pidfd-v5.1-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux: selftests: add tests for pidfd_send_signal() signal: add pidfd_send_signal() syscall

Some users want to use persistent memory as additional volatile memory. They are willing to cope with potential performance differences, for example between DRAM and 3D Xpoint, and want to use typical Linux memory management apis rather than a userspace memory allocator layered over an mmap() of a dax file. The administration model is to decide how much Persistent Memory (pmem) to use as System RAM, create a device-dax-mode namespace of that size, and then assign it to the core-mm. The rationale for device-dax is that it is a generic memory-mapping driver that can be layered over any "special purpose" memory, not just pmem. On subsequent boots udev rules can be used to restore the memory assignment. One implication of using pmem as RAM is that mlock() no longer keeps data off persistent media. For this reason it is recommended to enable NVDIMM Security (previously merged for 5.0) to encrypt pmem contents at rest. We considered making this recommendation an actively enforced requirement, but in the end decided to leave it as a distribution / administrator policy to allow for emulation and test environments that lack security capable NVDIMMs. Summary: - Replace the /sys/class/dax device model with /sys/bus/dax, and include a compat driver so distributions can opt-in to the new ABI. - Allow for an alternative driver for the device-dax address-range - Introduce the 'kmem' driver to hotplug / assign a device-dax address-range to the core-mm. - Arrange for the device-dax target-node to be onlined so that the newly added memory range can be uniquely referenced by numa apis" NOTE! I'm not entirely happy with the whole "PMEM as RAM" model because we currently have special - and very annoying rules in the kernel about accessing PMEM only with the "MC safe" accessors, because machine checks inside the regular repeat string copy functions can be fatal in some (not described) circumstances. And apparently the PMEM modules can cause that a lot more than regular RAM. The argument is that this happens because PMEM doesn't necessarily get scrubbed at boot like RAM does, but that is planned to be added for the user space tooling. Quoting Dan from another email: "The exposure can be reduced in the volatile-RAM case by scanning for and clearing errors before it is onlined as RAM. The userspace tooling for that can be in place before v5.1-final. There's also runtime notifications of errors via acpi_nfit_uc_error_notify() from background scrubbers on the DIMM devices. With that mechanism the kernel could proactively clear newly discovered poison in the volatile case, but that would be additional development more suitable for v5.2. I understand the concern, and the need to highlight this issue by tapping the brakes on feature development, but I don't see PMEM as RAM making the situation worse when the exposure is also there via DAX in the PMEM case. Volatile-RAM is arguably a safer use case since it's possible to repair pages where the persistent case needs active application coordination" * tag 'devdax-for-5.1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: device-dax: "Hotplug" persistent memory for use like normal RAM mm/resource: Let walk_system_ram_range() search child resources mm/memory-hotplug: Allow memory resources to be children mm/resource: Move HMM pr_debug() deeper into resource code mm/resource: Return real error codes from walk failures device-dax: Add a 'modalias' attribute to DAX 'bus' devices device-dax: Add a 'target_node' attribute device-dax: Auto-bind device after successful new_id acpi/nfit, device-dax: Identify differentiated memory with a unique numa-node device-dax: Add /sys/class/dax backwards compatibility device-dax: Add support for a dax override driver device-dax: Move resource pinning+mapping into the common driver device-dax: Introduce bus + driver model device-dax: Start defining a dax bus model device-dax: Remove multi-resource infrastructure device-dax: Kill dax_region base device-dax: Kill dax_region ida

2019-03-13tracing: kdb: Fix ftdump to not sleepDouglas Anderson
As reported back in 2016-11 [1], the "ftdump" kdb command triggers a BUG for "sleeping function called from invalid context". kdb's "ftdump" command wants to call ring_buffer_read_prepare() in atomic context. A very simple solution for this is to add allocation flags to ring_buffer_read_prepare() so kdb can call it without triggering the allocation error. This patch does that. Note that in the original email thread about this, it was suggested that perhaps the solution for kdb was to either preallocate the buffer ahead of time or create our own iterator. I'm hoping that this alternative of adding allocation flags to ring_buffer_read_prepare() can be considered since it means I don't need to duplicate more of the core trace code into "trace_kdb.c" (for either creating my own iterator or re-preparing a ring allocator whose memory was already allocated). NOTE: another option for kdb is to actually figure out how to make it reuse the existing ftrace_dump() function and totally eliminate the duplication. This sounds very appealing and actually works (the "sr z" command can be seen to properly dump the ftrace buffer). The downside here is that ftrace_dump() fully consumes the trace buffer. Unless that is changed I'd rather not use it because it means "ftdump | grep xyz" won't be very useful to search the ftrace buffer since it will throw away the whole trace on the first grep. A future patch to dump only the last few lines of the buffer will also be hard to implement.

Currently, to trigger a synthetic event, the name of that event is used as the handler name, which is inconsistent with the other actions. onchange(var).synthetic(param) where it can now be onchange(var).trace(synthetic, param). The older method will still be allowed, as long as the synthetic events do not overlap with other handler names. - The histogram documentation at testcases were updated for the new changes.

2019-03-11perf/core: Restore mmap record type correctlyStephane Eranian
On mmap(), perf_events generates a RECORD_MMAP record and then checks which events are interested in this record. There are currently 2 versions of mmap records: RECORD_MMAP and RECORD_MMAP2. MMAP2 is larger. The event configuration controls which version the user level tool accepts. If the event->attr.mmap2=1 field then MMAP2 record is returned. The perf_event_mmap_output() takes care of this. It checks attr->mmap2 and corrects the record fields before putting it in the sampling buffer of the event. At the end the function restores the modified MMAP record fields. The problem is that the function restores the size but not the type. Thus, if a subsequent event only accepts MMAP type, then it would instead receive an MMAP2 record with a size of MMAP record. This patch fixes the problem by restoring the record type on exit.
