sched/fair: Fix EEVDF entity placement bug causing scheduling lag
Consider a scenario where a CPU transitions from CPUHP_ONLINE to halfway
through a CPU hotunplug down to CPUHP_HRTIMERS_PREPARE, and then back to
CPUHP_ONLINE:
Since hrtimers_prepare_cpu() does not run, cpu_base.hres_active remains set
to 1 throughout. However, during a CPU unplug operation, the tick and the
clockevents are shut down at CPUHP_AP_TICK_DYING. On return to the online
state, for instance CFS incorrectly assumes that the hrtick is already
active, and the chance of the clockevent device to transition to oneshot
mode is also lost forever for the CPU, unless it goes back to a lower state
than CPUHP_HRTIMERS_PREPARE once.
This round-trip reveals another issue; cpu_base.online is not set to 1
after the transition, which appears as a WARN_ON_ONCE in enqueue_hrtimer().
Aside of that, the bulk of the per CPU state is not reset either, which
means there are dangling pointers in the worst case.
Address this by adding a corresponding startup() callback, which resets the
stale per CPU state and sets the online flag.
[ tglx: Make the new callback unconditionally available, remove the online
modification in the prepare() callback and clear the remaining
state in the starting callback instead of the prepare callback ]

The group's ignore flag is:
_ read under the group's lock (idle entry, remote expiry)
_ turned on/off under the group's lock (idle entry, remote expiry)
_ turned on locklessly on idle exit
When idle entry or remote expiry clear the "ignore" flag of a group, the
operation must be synchronized against other concurrent idle entry or
remote expiry to make sure the related group timer is never missed. To
enforce this synchronization, both "ignore" clear and read are
performed under the group lock.
On the contrary, whether idle entry or remote expiry manage to observe
the "ignore" flag turned on by a CPU exiting idle is a matter of
optimization. If that flag set is missed or cleared concurrently, the
worst outcome is a migrator wasting time remotely handling a "ghost"
timer. This is why the ignore flag can be set locklessly.
Unfortunately, the related lockless accesses are bare and miss
appropriate annotations. KCSAN rightfully complains:

Although the relevant accesses could be marked as data_race(), the
"ignore" flag being read several times within the same
tmigr_update_events() function is confusing and error prone. Prefer
reading it once in that function and make use of similar/paired accesses
elsewhere with appropriate comments when necessary.

Commit 2522c84db513 ("timers/migration: Fix another race between hotplug

hotplug up leading to a wrong "0" value migrator assigned to the top
level. However there is yet another situation that remains unhandled:

returning from tmigr_cpu_active(). The new top GRP1:0 is visible and
fetched and the pre-initialized groupmask of GRP0:0 is also visible.
As a result tmigr_active_up() is called to GRP1:0 with GRP0:0 as active

a #VMEXIT.

ordering made its initialization visible. As a result tmigr_active_up()
may be called to GRP2:0 with a "0" child's groumask. Leaving the timers
ignored for ever when the system is fully idle.
The race is highly theoretical and perhaps impossible in practice but
the groupmask of the child is not the only concern here as the whole
initialization of the child is not guaranteed to be visible to any
tree walker racing against hotplug (idle entry/exit, remote handling,
etc...). Although the current code layout seem to be resilient to such
hazards, this doesn't tell much about the future.
Fix this with enforcing address dependency between group initialization
and the write/read to the group's parent's pointer. Fortunately that
doesn't involve any barrier addition in the fast paths.

4) CPU 0 finally resumed after its #VMEXIT. It's in __walk_groups()
returning from tmigr_cpu_active(). The new top GRP1:0 is visible and
fetched but the freshly updated groupmask of GRP0:0 may not be visible
due to lack of ordering! As a result tmigr_active_up() is called to
GRP0:0 with a child's groupmask of "0". This buggy "0" groupmask then
becomes the migrator for GRP1:0 forever. As a result, timers on a fully
idle system get ignored.
One possible fix would be to define TMIGR_NONE as "0" so that such a
race would have no effect. And after all TMIGR_NONE doesn't need to be
anything else. However this would leave an uncomfortable state machine
where gears happen not to break by chance but are vulnerable to future
modifications.
Keep TMIGR_NONE as is instead and pre-initialize to "1" the groupmask of
any newly created top level. This groupmask is guaranteed to be visible
upon fetching the corresponding group for the 1st time:
_ By the upcoming CPU thanks to CPU hotplug synchronization between the
control CPU (BP) and the booting one (AP).
_ By the control CPU since the groupmask and parent pointers are
initialized locally.
_ By all CPUs belonging to the same group than the control CPU because
they must wait for it to ever become idle before needing to walk to
the new top. The cmpcxhg() on ->migr_state then makes sure its
groupmask is visible.
With this pre-initialization, it is guaranteed that if a future top level
is linked to an old one, it is walked through with a valid groupmask.

syzbot triggered the warning in posixtimer_send_sigqueue(), which warns
about a non-ignored signal being already queued on the ignored list.
The warning is actually bogus, as the following sequence causes this:
signal($SIG, SIGIGN);
timer_settime(...); // arm periodic timer
timer fires, signal is ignored and queued on ignored list
sigprocmask(SIG_BLOCK, ...); // block the signal
timer_settime(...); // re-arm periodic timer
timer fires, signal is not ignored because it is blocked
---> Warning triggers as signal is on the ignored list
Ideally timer_settime() could remove the signal, but that's racy and
incomplete vs. other scenarios and requires a full reevaluation of the
pending signal list.
Instead of adding more complexity, handle it gracefully by removing the
warning and requeueing the signal to the pending list. That's correct
versus:
1) sig[timed]wait() as that does not check for SIGIGN and only relies on
dequeue_signal() -> posixtimers_deliver_signal() to check whether the
pending signal is still valid.
2) Unblocking of the signal.
- If the unblocking happens before SIGIGN is replaced by a signal
handler, then the timer is rearmed in dequeue_signal(), but
get_signal() will ignore it. The next timer expiry will move it back
to the ignored list.
- If SIGIGN was replaced before unblocking, then the signal will be
delivered and a subsequent expiry will queue a signal on the pending
list again.
There is a related scenario to trigger the complementary warning in the
signal ignored path, which does not expect the signal to be on the pending
list when it is ignored. That can be triggered even before the above change
via:
task1 task2
signal($SIG, SIGIGN);
sigprocmask(SIG_BLOCK, ...);
timer_create(); // Signal target is task2
timer_settime(...); // arm periodic timer
timer fires, signal is not ignored because it is blocked
and queued on the pending list of task2
syscall()
// Sets the pending flag
sigprocmask(SIG_UNBLOCK, ...);
-> preemption, task2 cannot dequeue the signal
timer_settime(...); // re-arm periodic timer
timer fires, signal is ignored
---> Warning triggers as signal is on task2's pending list
and the thread group is not exiting
Consequently, remove that warning too and just keep the signal on the
pending list.
The following attempt to deliver the signal on return to user space of
task2 will ignore the signal and a subsequent expiry will bring it back to
the ignored list, if it did not get blocked or un-ignored before that.

The function graph tracer has become generic so that kretprobes and BPF
can use it along with function graph tracing itself. Some of the
infrastructure was specific for function graph tracing such as recording
the calltime and return time of the functions. Calling the clock code on a
high volume function does add overhead. The calculation of the calltime
was removed from the generic code and placed into the function graph
tracer itself so that the other users did not incur this overhead as they
did not need that timestamp.
The calltime field was still kept in the generic return entry structure
and the function graph return entry callback filled it as that structure
was passed to other code.
But this broke both irqsoff and wakeup latency tracer as they still
depended on the trace structure containing the calltime when the option
display-graph is set as it used some of those same functions that the
function graph tracer used. But now the calltime was not set and was just
zero. This caused the calculation of the function time to be the absolute
value of the return timestamp and not the length of the function.

Normally dequeue_entities() will continue to dequeue an empty group entity;
except DELAY_DEQUEUE changes things -- it retains empty entities such that they
might continue to compete and burn off some lag.
However, doing this results in update_cfs_group() re-computing the cgroup
weight 'slice' for an empty group, which it (rightly) figures isn't much at
all. This in turn means that the delayed entity is not competing at the
expected weight. Worse, the very low weight causes its lag to be inflated,
which combined with avg_vruntime() using scale_load_down(), leads to artifacts.
As such, don't adjust the weight for empty group entities and let them compete
at their original weight.

workqueue: warn if delayed_work is queued to an offlined cpu.
With the consolidation of put_prev_task/set_next_task(), see
commit 436f3eed5c ("sched: Combine the last put_prev_task() and the
first set_next_task()"), we are now skipping the transition between
these two functions when the previous and the next tasks are the same.
As a result, the scx idle state of a CPU is updated only when
transitioning to or from the idle thread. While this is generally
correct, it can lead to uneven and inefficient core utilization in
certain scenarios [1].
A typical scenario involves proactive wake-ups: scx_bpf_pick_idle_cpu()
selects and marks an idle CPU as busy, followed by a wake-up via
scx_bpf_kick_cpu(), without dispatching any tasks. In this case, the CPU
continues running the idle thread, returns to idle, but remains marked
as busy, preventing it from being selected again as an idle CPU (until a
task eventually runs on it and releases the CPU).
For example, running a workload that uses 20% of each CPU, combined with
an scx scheduler using proactive wake-ups, results in the following core
utilization:
CPU 0: 25.7%
CPU 1: 29.3%
CPU 2: 26.5%
CPU 3: 25.5%
CPU 4: 0.0%
CPU 5: 25.5%
CPU 6: 0.0%
CPU 7: 10.5%
To address this, refresh the idle state also in pick_task_idle(), during
idle-to-idle transitions, but only trigger ops.update_idle() on actual
state changes to prevent unnecessary updates to the scx scheduler and
maintain balanced state transitions.
With this change in place, the core utilization in the previous example
becomes the following:
CPU 0: 18.8%
CPU 1: 19.4%
CPU 2: 18.0%
CPU 3: 18.7%
CPU 4: 19.3%
CPU 5: 18.9%
CPU 6: 18.7%
CPU 7: 19.3%

delayed_work submitted to an offlined cpu, will not get executed,
after the specified delay if the cpu remains offline. If the cpu
never comes online the work will never get executed.
checking for online cpu in __queue_delayed_work, does not sound
like a good idea because to do this reliably we need hotplug lock
and since work may be submitted from atomic contexts, we would
have to use cpus_read_trylock. But if trylock fails we would queue
the work on any cpu and this may not be optimal because our intended
cpu might still be online.
Putting a WARN_ON_ONCE for an already offlined cpu, will indicate users
of queue_delayed_work_on, if they are (wrongly) trying to queue
delayed_work on offlined cpu. Also indicate the problem of using
offlined cpu with queue_delayed_work_on, in its description.

Max Makarov reported kernel panic [1] in perf user callchain code.
The reason for that is the race between uprobe_free_utask and bpf
profiler code doing the perf user stack unwind and is triggered
within uprobe_free_utask function:
- after current->utask is freed and
- before current->utask is set to NULL

Fixing this by making sure current->utask pointer is set to NULL
before we start to release the utask object.

I noticed this in my traces today:

Which is a weight transition: 1048576 -> 2 -> 1048576.
One would expect the lag to shoot out *AND* come back, notably:
-1123*1048576/2 = -588775424
-588775424*2/1048576 = -1123
Except the trace shows it is all off. Worse, subsequent cycles shoot it
out further and further.
This made me have a very hard look at reweight_entity(), and
specifically the ->on_rq case, which is more prominent with
DELAY_DEQUEUE.
And indeed, it is all sorts of broken. While the computation of the new
lag is correct, the computation for the new vruntime, using the new lag
is broken for it does not consider the logic set out in place_entity().
With the below patch, I now see things like:
migration/12-55 [012] d..3. 309.006650: reweight_entity: (ffff8881e0e6f600-ffff88885f235f40-12)

Which isn't perfect yet, but much closer.

This warning is caused by 'kernfs_break_active_protection' when it is
writing to cpuset.cpus, and the cgroup is removed concurrently.
The commit 3a5a6d0c2b ("cpuset: don't nest cgroup_mutex inside
get_online_cpus()") made cpuset_hotplug_workfn asynchronous, This change
involves calling flush_work(), which can create a multiple processes
circular locking dependency that involve cgroup_mutex, potentially leading
to a deadlock. To avoid deadlock. the commit 76bb5ab8f6 ("cpuset: break
kernfs active protection in cpuset_write_resmask()") added
'kernfs_break_active_protection' in the cpuset_write_resmask. This could
lead to this warning.
After the commit 2125c0034c ("cgroup/cpuset: Make cpuset hotplug
processing synchronous"), the cpuset_write_resmask no longer needs to
wait the hotplug to finish, which means that concurrent hotplug and cpuset
operations are no longer possible. Therefore, the deadlock doesn't exist
anymore and it does not have to 'break active protection' now. To fix this
warning, just remove kernfs_break_active_protection operation in the
'cpuset_write_resmask'.

scx_ops_bypass() iterates all CPUs to re-enqueue all the scx tasks.
For each CPU, it acquires a lock using rq_lock() regardless of whether
a CPU is offline or the CPU is currently running a task in a higher
scheduler class (e.g., deadline). The rq_lock() is supposed to be used
for online CPUs, and the use of rq_lock() may trigger an unnecessary
warning in rq_pin_lock(). Therefore, replace rq_lock() to
raw_spin_rq_lock() in scx_ops_bypass().

- Add needed READ_ONCE() around access to the fgraph array element
The updates to the fgraph array can happen when callbacks are
registered and unregistered. The __ftrace_return_to_handler() can
handle reading either the old value or the new value. But once it
reads that value it must stay consistent otherwise the check that
looks to see if the value is a stub may show false, but if the
compiler decides to re-read after that check, it can be true which
can cause the code to crash later on.
- Make function profiler use the top level ops for filtering again
When function graph became available for instances, its filter ops
became independent from the top level set_ftrace_filter. In the
process the function profiler received its own filter ops as well.
But the function profiler uses the top level set_ftrace_filter file
and does not have one of its own. In giving it its own filter ops, it
lost any user interface it once had. Make it use the top level
set_ftrace_filter file again. This fixes a regression.

Commit c132be2c4f ("function_graph: Have the instances use their own
ftrace_ops for filtering"), function profiler (enabled via
function_profile_enabled) has been showing statistics for all functions,
ignoring set_ftrace_filter settings.
While tracers are instantiated, the function profiler is not. Therefore, it
should use the global set_ftrace_filter for consistency. This patch
modifies the function profiler to use the global filter, fixing the
filtering functionality.

In __ftrace_return_to_handler(), a loop iterates over the fgraph_array[]
elements, which are fgraph_ops. The loop checks if an element is a
fgraph_stub to prevent using a fgraph_stub afterward.
However, if the compiler reloads fgraph_array[] after this check, it might
race with an update to fgraph_array[] that introduces a fgraph_stub. This
could result in the stub being processed, but the stub contains a null
"func_hash" field, leading to a NULL pointer dereference.
To ensure that the gops compared against the fgraph_stub matches the gops
processed later, add a READ_ONCE(). A similar patch appears in commit
63a8dfb ("function_graph: Add READ_ONCE() when accessing fgraph_array[]").

In order to catch a common bug where a TRACE_EVENT() TP_fast_assign()
assigns an address of an allocated string to the ring buffer and then
references it in TP_printk(), which can be executed hours later when the
string is free, the function test_event_printk() runs on all events as
they are registered to make sure there's no unwanted dereferencing.
It calls process_string() to handle cases in TP_printk() format that has
"%s". It returns whether or not the string is safe. But it can have some
false positives.
For instance, xe_bo_move() has:
TP_printk("move_lacks_source:%s, migrate object %p [size %zu] from %s to %s device_id:%s",
__entry->move_lacks_source ? "yes" : "no", __entry->bo, __entry->size,
xe_mem_type_to_name[__entry->old_placement],
xe_mem_type_to_name[__entry->new_placement], __get_str(device_id))
Where the "%s" references into xe_mem_type_to_name[]. This is an array of
pointers that should be safe for the event to access. Instead of flagging
this as a bad reference, if a reference points to an array, where the
record field is the index, consider it safe.

Tell tar to ignore silly-rename files (".__afs*" and ".nfs*") when building
the header archive. These occur when a file that is open is unlinked
locally, but hasn't yet been closed. Such files are visible to the user
via the getdents() syscall and so programs may want to do things with them.
During the kernel build, such files may be made during the processing of
header files and the cleanup may get deferred by fput() which may result in
tar seeing these files when it reads the directory, but they may have
disappeared by the time it tries to open them, causing tar to fail with an
error. Further, we don't want to include them in the tarball if they still
exist.
With CONFIG_HEADERS_INSTALL=y, something like the following may be seen:
find: './kernel/.tmp_cpio_dir/include/dt-bindings/reset/.__afs2080': No such file or directory
tar: ./include/linux/greybus/.__afs3C95: File removed before we read it
The find warning doesn't seem to cause a problem.
Fix this by telling tar when called from in gen_kheaders.sh to exclude such
files. This only affects afs and nfs; cifs uses the Windows Hidden
attribute to prevent the file from being seen.

The intent of the verifcation done in check_flush_depedency is to ensure
forward progress during memory reclaim, by flagging cases when either a
memory reclaim process, or a memory reclaim work item is flushed from a
context not marked as memory reclaim safe.
This is correct when flushing, but when called from the
cancel(_delayed)_work_sync() paths it is a false positive because work is
either already running, or will not be running at all. Therefore
cancelling it is safe and we can relax the warning criteria by letting the
helper know of the calling context.

If dup_mmap() encounters an issue, currently uprobe is able to access the
relevant mm via the reverse mapping (in build_map_info()), and if we are
very unlucky with a race window, observe invalid XA_ZERO_ENTRY state which
we establish as part of the fork error path.
This occurs because uprobe_write_opcode() invokes anon_vma_prepare() which
in turn invokes find_mergeable_anon_vma() that uses a VMA iterator,
invoking vma_iter_load() which uses the advanced maple tree API and thus
is able to observe XA_ZERO_ENTRY entries added to dup_mmap() in commit
d240629148 ("fork: use __mt_dup() to duplicate maple tree in
dup_mmap()").
This change was made on the assumption that only process tear-down code
would actually observe (and make use of) these values. However this very
unlikely but still possible edge case with uprobes exists and
unfortunately does make these observable.
The uprobe operation prevents races against the dup_mmap() operation via
the dup_mmap_sem semaphore, which is acquired via uprobe_start_dup_mmap()
and dropped via uprobe_end_dup_mmap(), and held across
register_for_each_vma() prior to invoking build_map_info() which does the
reverse mapping lookup.
Currently these are acquired and dropped within dup_mmap(), which exposes
the race window prior to error handling in the invoking dup_mm() which
tears down the mm.
We can avoid all this by just moving the invocation of
uprobe_start_dup_mmap() and uprobe_end_dup_mmap() up a level to dup_mm()
and only release this lock once the dup_mmap() operation succeeds or clean
up is done.
This means that the uprobe code can never observe an incompletely
constructed mm and resolves the issue in this case.

The TP_printk() of a TRACE_EVENT() is a generic printf format that any
developer can create for their event. It may include pointers to strings
and such. A boot mapped buffer may contain data from a previous kernel
where the strings addresses are different.
One solution is to copy the event content and update the pointers by the
recorded delta, but a simpler solution (for now) is to just use the
print_fields() function to print these events. The print_fields() function
just iterates the fields and prints them according to what type they are,
and ignores the TP_printk() format from the event itself.
To understand the difference, when printing via TP_printk() the output
looks like this:
4582.696626: kmem_cache_alloc: call_site=getname_flags+0x47/0x1f0 ptr=00000000e70e10e0 bytes_req=4096 bytes_alloc=4096 gfp_flags=GFP_KERNEL node=-1 accounted=false

Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
"Replace trace_check_vprintf() with test_event_printk() and
ignore_event()
The function test_event_printk() checks on boot up if the trace event
printf() formats dereference any pointers, and if they do, it then
looks at the arguments to make sure that the pointers they dereference
will exist in the event on the ring buffer. If they do not, it issues
a WARN_ON() as it is a likely bug.
But this isn't the case for the strings that can be dereferenced with
"%s", as some trace events (notably RCU and some IPI events) save a
pointer to a static string in the ring buffer. As the string it points
to lives as long as the kernel is running, it is not a bug to
reference it, as it is guaranteed to be there when the event is read.
But it is also possible (and a common bug) to point to some allocated
string that could be freed before the trace event is read and the
dereference is to bad memory. This case requires a run time check.
The previous way to handle this was with trace_check_vprintf() that
would process the printf format piece by piece and send what it didn't
care about to vsnprintf() to handle arguments that were not strings.
This kept it from having to reimplement vsnprintf(). But it relied on
va_list implementation and for architectures that copied the va_list
and did not pass it by reference, it wasn't even possible to do this
check and it would be skipped. As 64bit x86 passed va_list by
reference, most events were tested and this kept out bugs where
strings would have been dereferenced after being freed.
Instead of relying on the implementation of va_list, extend the boot
up test_event_printk() function to validate all the "%s" strings that
can be validated at boot, and for the few events that point to strings
outside the ring buffer, flag both the event and the field that is
dereferenced as "needs_test". Then before the event is printed, a call
to ignore_event() is made, and if the event has the flag set, it
iterates all its fields and for every field that is to be tested, it
will read the pointer directly from the event in the ring buffer and
make sure that it is valid. If the pointer is not valid, it will print
a WARN_ON(), print out to the trace that the event has unsafe memory
and ignore the print format.
With this new update, the trace_check_vprintf() can be safely removed
and now all events can be verified regardless of architecture"

Pull ftrace fixes from Steven Rostedt:
- Always try to initialize the idle functions when graph tracer starts
A bug was found that when a CPU is offline when graph tracing starts
and then comes online, that CPU is not traced. The fix to that was to
move the initialization of the idle shadow stack over to the hot plug
online logic, which also handle onlined CPUs. The issue was that it
removed the initialization of the shadow stack when graph tracing
starts, but the callbacks to the hot plug logic do nothing if graph
tracing isn't currently running. Although that fix fixed the onlining
of a CPU during tracing, it broke the CPUs that were already online.
- Have microblaze not try to get the "true parent" in function tracing
If function tracing and graph tracing are both enabled at the same
time the parent of the functions traced by the function tracer may
sometimes be the graph tracing trampoline. The graph tracing hijacks
the return pointer of the function to trace it, but that can
interfere with the function tracing parent output.
This was fixed by using the ftrace_graph_ret_addr() function passing
in the kernel stack pointer using the ftrace_regs_get_stack_pointer()
function. But Al Viro reported that Microblaze does not implement the
kernel_stack_pointer(regs) helper function that
ftrace_regs_get_stack_pointer() uses and fails to compile when
function graph tracing is enabled.
It was first thought that this was a microblaze issue, but the real
cause is that this only works when an architecture implements
HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS, as a requirement for that config is to
have ftrace always pass a valid ftrace_regs to the callbacks. That
also means that the architecture supports
ftrace_regs_get_stack_pointer()
Microblaze does not set HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS nor does it
implement ftrace_regs_get_stack_pointer() which caused it to fail to
build. Only implement the "true parent" logic if an architecture has
that config set"
