The root cause is that s_next() returns NULL when nothing is found.
This results in s_stop() attempting to free a NULL pointer because its
parameter is NULL.
Fix the issue by freeing the memory appropriately when s_next() fails
to find anything.

The function tracer should record the preemption level at the point when
the function is invoked. If the tracing subsystem decrement the
preemption counter it needs to correct this before feeding the data into
the trace buffer. This was broken in the commit cited below while
shifting the preempt-disabled section.
Use tracing_gen_ctx_dec() which properly subtracts one from the
preemption counter on a preemptible kernel.

When adding a new fprobe, it will update the function hash to the
functions the fprobe is attached to and register with function graph to
have it call the registered functions. The fprobe_graph_active variable
keeps track of the number of fprobes that are using function graph.
If two fprobes attach to the same function, it increments the
fprobe_graph_active for each of them. But when they are removed, the first
fprobe to be removed will see that the function it is attached to is also
used by another fprobe and it will not remove that function from
function_graph. The logic will skip decrementing the fprobe_graph_active
variable.
This causes the fprobe_graph_active variable to not go to zero when all
fprobes are removed, and in doing so it does not unregister from
function graph. As the fgraph ops hash will now be empty, and an empty
filter hash means all functions are enabled, this triggers function graph
to add a callback to the fprobe infrastructure for every function!

When the last fprobe is removed, it calls unregister_ftrace_graph() to
remove the graph_ops from function graph. The issue is when it does so, it
calls return before removing the function from its graph ops via
ftrace_set_filter_ips(). This leaves the last function lingering in the
fprobe's fgraph ops and if a probe is added it also enables that last
function (even though the callback will just drop it, it does add unneeded
overhead to make that call).

The above enabled a fprobe on kernel_clone, and then on schedule_timeout.
The content of the enabled_functions shows the functions that have a
callback attached to them. The fprobe attached to those functions
properly. Then the fprobes were cleared, and enabled_functions was empty
after that. But after adding a fprobe on kmem_cache_free, the
enabled_functions shows that the schedule_timeout was attached again. This
is because it was still left in the fprobe ops that is used to tell
function graph what functions it wants callbacks from.

Function graph uses a subops and manager ops mechanism to attach to
ftrace. The manager ops connects to ftrace and the functions it connects
to is defined by a list of subops that it manages.
The function hash that defines what the above ops attaches to limits the
functions to attach if the hash has any content. If the hash is empty, it
means to trace all functions.
The creation of the manager ops hash is done by iterating over all the
subops hashes. If any of the subops hashes is empty, it means that the
manager ops hash must trace all functions as well.
The issue is in the creation of the manager ops. When a second subops is
attached, a new hash is created by starting it as NULL and adding the
subops one at a time. But the NULL ops is mistaken as an empty hash, and
once an empty hash is found, it stops the loop of subops and just enables
all functions.

Fix this by initializing the new hash to NULL and if the hash is NULL do
not treat it as an empty hash but instead allocate by copying the content
of the first sub ops. Then on subsequent iterations, the new hash will not
be NULL, but the content of the previous subops. If that first subops
attached to all functions, then new hash may assume that the manager ops
also needs to attach to all functions.

Historically each architecture defined their own way to store the vDSO
data page. Add a generic mechanism to provide storage for that page.
Furthermore this generic storage will be extended to also provide
uniform storage for *non*-time-related data, like the random state or
architecture-specific data. These will have their own pages and data
structures, so rename 'vdso_data' into 'vdso_time_data' to make that
split clear from the name.
Also introduce a new consistent naming scheme for the symbols related to
the vDSO, which makes it clear if the symbol is accessible from
userspace or kernel space and the type of data behind the symbol.
The generic fault handler contains an optimization to prefault the vvar
page when the timens page is accessed. This was lifted from s390 and x86.

bpf_send_signal_common() uses preemptible() to check whether or not the
current context is preemptible. If it is preemptible, it will use
irq_work to send the signal asynchronously instead of trying to hold a
spin-lock, because spin-lock is sleepable under PREEMPT_RT.
However, preemptible() depends on CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT. When
CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT is turned off (e.g., CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY=y),
!preemptible() will be evaluated as 1 and bpf_send_signal_common() will
use irq_work unconditionally.
Fix it by unfolding "!preemptible()" and using "preempt_count() != 0 ||

Interrupt controller drivers which enable CONFIG_GENERIC_PENDING_IRQ
require to know whether an interrupt can be moved in process context or not
to decide whether they need to invoke the work around for non-atomic MSI
updates or not.
This information can be retrieved via irq_can_move_pcntxt(). That helper
requires access to the top-most interrupt domain data, but the driver which
requires this is usually further down in the hierarchy.
Introduce irq_can_move_in_process_context() which retrieves that
information from the top-most interrupt domain data.

CONFIG_GENERIC_PENDING_IRQ requires an architecture specific implementation
of irq_force_complete_move() for CPU hotplug. At the moment, only x86
implements this unconditionally, but for RISC-V irq_force_complete_move()
is only needed when the RISC-V IMSIC driver is in use and not needed
otherwise.
To allow runtime configuration of this mechanism, introduce a common
irq_force_complete_move() implementation in the interrupt core code, which
only invokes the completion function, when a interrupt chip in the
hierarchy implements it.
Switch X86 over to the new mechanism. No functional change intended.

Since we can just check whether a pool refers to the same region to

When fixes from patches 1 and 3 are applied, Patrick Somaru reported
an increase in memory consumption for sched_ext iterator-based
programs hitting 1M instructions limit. For example, 2Gb VMs ran out
of memory while verifying a program. Similar behaviour could be
reproduced on current bpf-next master.
Here is an example of such program:
/* verification completes if given 16G or RAM,
* final env->free_list size is 369,960 entries.
*/
SEC("raw_tp")
__flag(BPF_F_TEST_STATE_FREQ)
__success
int free_list_bomb(const void *ctx)
{
volatile char buf[48] = {};
unsigned i, j;
j = 0;
bpf_for(i, 0, 10) {
/* this forks verifier state:
* - verification of current path continues and
* creates a checkpoint after 'if';
* - verification of forked path hits the
* checkpoint and marks it as loop_entry.
*/
if (bpf_get_prandom_u32())
asm volatile ("");
/* this marks 'j' as precise, thus any checkpoint
* created on current iteration would not be matched
* on the next iteration.
*/
buf[j++] = 42;
j %= ARRAY_SIZE(buf);
}
asm volatile (""::"r"(buf));
return 0;
}
Memory consumption increased due to more states being marked as loop
entries and eventually added to env->free_list.
This commit introduces logic to free states from env->free_list during
verification. A state in env->free_list can be freed if:
- it has no child states;
- it is not used as a loop_entry.
This commit:
- updates bpf_verifier_state->used_as_loop_entry to be a counter
that tracks how many states use this one as a loop entry;
- adds a function maybe_free_verifier_state(), which:
- frees a state if its ->branches and ->used_as_loop_entry counters
are both zero;
- if the state is freed, state->loop_entry->used_as_loop_entry is
decremented, and an attempt is made to free state->loop_entry.
In the example above, this approach reduces the maximum number of
states in the free list from 369,960 to 16,223.
However, this approach has its limitations. If the buf size in the
example above is modified to 64, state caching overflows: the state
for j=0 is evicted from the cache before it can be used to stop
traversal. As a result, states in the free list accumulate because
their branch counters do not reach zero.
The effect of this patch on the selftests looks as follows:

The next patch in the set needs the ability to remove individual
states from env->free_list while only holding a pointer to the state.
Which requires env->free_list to be a doubly linked list.
This patch converts env->free_list and struct bpf_verifier_state_list
to use struct list_head for this purpose. The change to
env->explored_states is collateral.

The patch 9 is simpler if less places modify loop_entry field.
The loop deleted by this patch does not affect correctness, but is a
performance optimization. However, measurements on selftests and
sched_ext programs show that this optimization is unnecessary:
- at most 2 steps are done in get_loop_entry();
- most of the time 0 or 1 steps are done in get_loop_entry().

For a generic loop detection algorithm a graph node can be a loop
header for itself. However, state loop entries are computed for use in
is_state_visited(), where get_loop_entry(state)->branches is checked.
is_state_visited() also checks state->branches, thus the case when
state == state->loop_entry is not interesting for is_state_visited().
This change does not affect correctness, but simplifies
get_loop_entry() a bit and also simplifies change to
update_loop_entry() in patch 9.

Tejun Heo reported an infinite loop in get_loop_entry(),
when verifying a sched_ext program layered_dispatch in [1].
After some investigation I'm sure that root cause is fixed by patches
1,3 in this patch-set.
To err on the safe side, this commit modifies get_loop_entry() to
detect infinite loops and abort verification in such cases.
The number of steps get_loop_entry(S) can make while moving along the
bpf_verifier_state->loop_entry chain is bounded by the DFS depth of
state S. This fact is exploited to implement the check.
To avoid dealing with the potential error code returned from
get_loop_entry() in update_loop_entry(), remove the get_loop_entry()
calls there:
- This change does not affect correctness. Loop entries would still be
updated during the backward DFS move in update_branch_counts().
- This change does not affect performance. Measurements show that
get_loop_entry() performs at most 1 step on selftests and at most 2
steps on sched_ext programs (1 step in 17 cases, 2 steps in 3
cases, measured using "do-not-submit" patches from [2]).

The generic_map_lookup_batch currently returns EINTR if it fails with
ENOENT and retries several times on bpf_map_copy_value. The next batch
would start from the same location, presuming it's a transient issue.
This is incorrect if a map can actually have "holes", i.e.
"get_next_key" can return a key that does not point to a valid value. At
least the array of maps type may contain such holes legitly. Right now
these holes show up, generic batch lookup cannot proceed any more. It
will always fail with EINTR errors.
Rather, do not retry in generic_map_lookup_batch. If it finds a non
existing element, skip to the next key. This simple solution comes with
a price that transient errors may not be recovered, and the iteration
might cycle back to the first key under parallel deletion. For example,
Hou Tao <houtao@huaweicloud.com> pointed out a following scenario:
For LPM trie map:
(1) ->map_get_next_key(map, prev_key, key) returns a valid key
(2) bpf_map_copy_value() return -ENOMENT
It means the key must be deleted concurrently.
(3) goto next_key
It swaps the prev_key and key
(4) ->map_get_next_key(map, prev_key, key) again
prev_key points to a non-existing key, for LPM trie it will treat just
like prev_key=NULL case, the returned key will be duplicated.
With the retry logic, the iteration can continue to the key next to the
deleted one. But if we directly skip to the next key, the iteration loop
would restart from the first key for the lpm_trie type.
However, not all races may be recovered. For example, if current key is
deleted after instead of before bpf_map_copy_value, or if the prev_key
also gets deleted, then the loop will still restart from the first key
for lpm_tire anyway. For generic lookup it might be better to stay
simple, i.e. just skip to the next key. To guarantee that the output
keys are not duplicated, it is better to implement map type specific
batch operations, which can properly lock the trie and synchronize with
concurrent mutators.

When a function is annotated as "weak" and is overridden, the code is not
removed. If it is traced, the fentry/mcount location in the weak function
will be referenced by the "__mcount_loc" section. This will then be added
to the available_filter_functions list. Since only the address of the
functions are listed, to find the name to show, a search of kallsyms is
used.
Since kallsyms will return the function by simply finding the function
that the address is after but before the next function, an address of a
weak function will show up as the function before it. This is because
kallsyms does not save names of weak functions. This has caused issues in
the past, as now the traced weak function will be listed in
available_filter_functions with the name of the function before it.
At best, this will cause the previous function's name to be listed twice.
At worse, if the previous function was marked notrace, it will now show up
as a function that can be traced. Note that it only shows up that it can
be traced but will not be if enabled, which causes confusion.
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220412094923.0abe90955e5db486b7bca279@kernel.org/
The commit b39181f7c6 ("ftrace: Add FTRACE_MCOUNT_MAX_OFFSET to avoid
adding weak function") was a workaround to this by checking the function
address before printing its name. If the address was too far from the
function given by the name then instead of printing the name it would
print: __ftrace_invalid_address___<invalid-offset>
The real issue is that these invalid addresses are listed in the ftrace
table look up which available_filter_functions is derived from. A place
holder must be listed in that file because set_ftrace_filter may take a
series of indexes into that file instead of names to be able to do O(1)
lookups to enable filtering (many tools use this method).
Even if kallsyms saved the size of the function, it does not remove the
need of having these place holders. The real solution is to not add a weak
function into the ftrace table in the first place.
To solve this, the sorttable.c code that sorts the mcount regions during
the build is modified to take a "nm -S vmlinux" input, sort it, and any
function listed in the mcount_loc section that is not within a boundary of
the function list given by nm is considered a weak function and is zeroed
out.
Note, this does not mean they will remain zero when booting as KASLR
will still shift those addresses. To handle this, the entries in the
mcount_loc section will be ignored if they are zero or match the
kaslr_offset() value.

Every iteration of the loop over all possible CPUs in
em_check_capacity_update() causes get_cpu_device() to be called twice
for the same CPU, once indirectly via em_cpu_get() and once directly.
Get rid of the indirect get_cpu_device() call by moving the direct
invocation of it earlier and using em_pd_get() instead of em_cpu_get()
to get a pd pointer for the dev one returned by it.
This also exposes the fact that dev is needed to get a pd, so the code
becomes somewhat easier to follow after it.
No functional impact.

kmap_atomic() is deprecated and should be replaced with kmap_local_page()
[1][2]. kmap_local_page() is faster in kernels with HIGHMEM enabled, can
take page faults, and allows preemption.
According to [2], this replacement is safe as long as the code between
kmap_atomic() and kunmap_atomic() does not implicitly depend on disabling
page faults or preemption. In all of the call sites in this patch, the only
thing happening between mapping and unmapping pages is copy_page() calls,
and I don't suspect they depend on disabling page faults or preemption.

int scx_bpf_cpu_node(s32 cpu)
Add the following kfuncs to provide BPF schedulers direct access to
per-node idle cpumasks information:
const struct cpumask *scx_bpf_get_idle_cpumask_node(int node)
const struct cpumask *scx_bpf_get_idle_smtmask_node(int node)

int node, u64 flags)
s32 scx_bpf_pick_any_cpu_node(const cpumask_t *cpus_allowed,

Moreover, trigger an scx error when any of the non-node aware idle CPU
kfuncs are used when SCX_OPS_BUILTIN_IDLE_PER_NODE is enabled.
