6945915e7f torture: Avoid format string leak to thead name
Since the torture-test thread creation interface does not include
format string arguments, this commit makes sure the name can never be
accidentally processed as a format string.

5a6024f160 workqueue: zero cpumask of wq_numa_possible_cpumask on init

In my investigation, I found the root cause is wq_numa_possible_cpumask.
All entries of wq_numa_possible_cpumask is allocated by
alloc_cpumask_var_node(). And these entries are used without initializing.
So these entries have wrong value.

When hot-adding and onlining CPU, wq_update_unbound_numa() is called.
wq_update_unbound_numa() calls alloc_unbound_pwq(). And alloc_unbound_pwq()
calls get_unbound_pool(). In get_unbound_pool(), worker_pool->node is set
as follow:

3592         /* if cpumask is contained inside a NUMA node, we belong to that node */
3593         if (wq_numa_enabled) {
3594                 for_each_node(node) {
3595                         if (cpumask_subset(pool->attrs->cpumask,
3596                                            wq_numa_possible_cpumask[node])) {
3597                                 pool->node = node;
3598                                 break;
3599                         }
3600                 }
3601         }

But wq_numa_possible_cpumask[node] does not have correct cpumask. So, wrong
node is selected. As a result, kernel panic occurs.

By this patch, all entries of wq_numa_possible_cpumask are allocated by
zalloc_cpumask_var_node to initialize them. And the panic disappeared.

72d5305dcb locking/mutexes: Optimize mutex trylock slowpath
The mutex_trylock() function calls into __mutex_trylock_fastpath() when
trying to obtain the mutex. On 32 bit x86, in the !__HAVE_ARCH_CMPXCHG
case, __mutex_trylock_fastpath() calls directly into __mutex_trylock_slowpath()
regardless of whether or not the mutex is locked.

In __mutex_trylock_slowpath(), we then acquire the wait_lock spinlock, xchg()
lock->count with -1, then set lock->count back to 0 if there are no waiters,
and return true if the prev lock count was 1.

However, if the mutex is already locked, then there isn't much point
in attempting all of the above expensive operations. In this patch, we only
attempt the above trylock operations if the mutex is unlocked.

0d968dd8c6 locking/mutexes: Try to acquire mutex only if it is unlocked
Upon entering the slowpath in __mutex_lock_common(), we try once more to
acquire the mutex. We only try to acquire if (lock->count >= 0). However,
what we actually want here is to try to acquire if the mutex is unlocked
(lock->count == 1).

This patch changes it so that we only try-acquire the mutex upon entering
the slowpath if it is unlocked, rather than if the lock count is non-negative.
This helps further reduce unnecessary atomic xchg() operations.

Furthermore, this patch uses !mutex_is_locked(lock) to do the initial
checks for if the lock is free rather than directly calling atomic_read()
on the lock->count, in order to improve readability.

1e820c9608 locking/mutexes: Delete the MUTEX_SHOW_NO_WAITER macro
MUTEX_SHOW_NO_WAITER() is a macro which checks for if there are
"no waiters" on a mutex by checking if the lock count is non-negative.
Based on feedback from the discussion in the earlier version of this
patchset, the macro is not very readable.

Furthermore, checking lock->count isn't always the correct way to
determine if there are "no waiters" on a mutex. For example, a negative
count on a mutex really only means that there "potentially" are
waiters. Likewise, there can be waiters on the mutex even if the count is
non-negative. Thus, "MUTEX_SHOW_NO_WAITER" doesn't always do what the name
of the macro suggests.

So this patch deletes the MUTEX_SHOW_NO_WAITERS() macro, directly
use atomic_read() instead of the macro, and adds comments which
elaborate on how the extra atomic_read() checks can help reduce
unnecessary xchg() operations.

0c3c0f0d6e locking/mutexes: Correct documentation on mutex optimistic spinning
The mutex optimistic spinning documentation states that we spin for
acquisition when we find that there are no pending waiters. However,
in actuality, whether or not there are waiters for the mutex doesn't
determine if we will spin for it.

This patch removes that statement and also adds a comment which
mentions that we spin for the mutex while we don't need to reschedule.

0e59bdaea7 sched/fair: Disable runtime_enabled on dying rq
We kill rq->rd on the CPU_DOWN_PREPARE stage:

	cpuset_cpu_inactive -> cpuset_update_active_cpus -> partition_sched_domains ->
	-> cpu_attach_domain -> rq_attach_root -> set_rq_offline

This unthrottles all throttled cfs_rqs.

But the cpu is still able to call schedule() till

	take_cpu_down->__cpu_disable()

is called from stop_machine.

This case the tasks from just unthrottled cfs_rqs are pickable
in a standard scheduler way, and they are picked by dying cpu.
The cfs_rqs becomes throttled again, and migrate_tasks()
in migration_call skips their tasks (one more unthrottle
in migrate_tasks()->CPU_DYING does not happen, because rq->rd
is already NULL).

Patch sets runtime_enabled to zero. This guarantees, the runtime
is not accounted, and the cfs_rqs won't exceed given
cfs_rq->runtime_remaining = 1, and tasks will be pickable
in migrate_tasks(). runtime_enabled is recalculated again
when rq becomes online again.

Ben Segall also noticed, we always enable runtime in
tg_set_cfs_bandwidth(). Actually, we should do that for online
cpus only. To prevent races with unthrottle_offline_cfs_rqs()
we take get_online_cpus() lock.

a22b4b0123 sched/numa: Change scan period code to match intent
Reading through the scan period code and comment, it appears the
intent was to slow down NUMA scanning when a majority of accesses
are on the local node, specifically a local:remote ratio of 3:1.

However, the code actually tests local / (local + remote), and
the actual cut-off point was around 30% local accesses, well before
a task has actually converged on a node.

Changing the threshold to 7 means scanning slows down when a task
has around 70% of its accesses local, which appears to match the
intent of the code more closely.

0132c3e177 sched/numa: Examine a task move when examining a task swap
Running "perf bench numa mem -0 -m -P 1000 -p 8 -t 20" on a 4
node system results in 160 runnable threads on a system with 80
CPU threads.

Once a process has nearly converged, with 39 threads on one node
and 1 thread on another node, the remaining thread will be unable
to migrate to its preferred node through a task swap.

However, a simple task move would make the workload converge,
witout causing an imbalance.

Test for this unlikely occurrence, and attempt a task move to
the preferred nid when it happens.

 # Running main, "perf bench numa mem -p 8 -t 20 -0 -m -P 1000"

Without this patch, this same perf bench numa mem run had to
rely on the scheduler load balancer to first balance out the
load (moving a random task), before a task swap could complete
the NUMA convergence.

The load balancer does not normally take action unless the load

difference exceeds 25%. Convergence times of over half an hour
have been observed without this patch.

With this patch, the NUMA balancing code will simply migrate the
task, if that does not cause an imbalance.

Also skip examining a CPU in detail if the improvement on that CPU
is no more than the best we already have.

6dc1a672ab sched/numa: Use effective_load() to balance NUMA loads
When CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED is enabled, the load that a task places
on a CPU is determined by the group the task is in. The active groups
on the source and destination CPU can be different, resulting in a
different load contribution by the same task at its source and at its
destination. As a result, the load needs to be calculated separately
for each CPU, instead of estimated once with task_h_load().

Getting this calculation right allows some workloads to converge,
where previously the last thread could get stuck on another node,
without being able to migrate to its final destination.

28a2174519 sched/numa: Move power adjustment into load_too_imbalanced()
Currently the NUMA code scales the load on each node with the
amount of CPU power available on that node, but it does not
apply any adjustment to the load of the task that is being
moved over.

On systems with SMT/HT, this results in a task being weighed
much more heavily than a CPU core, and a task move that would
even out the load between nodes being disallowed.

The correct thing is to apply the power correction to the
numbers after we have first applied the move of the tasks'
loads to them.

This also allows us to do the power correction with a multiplication,
rather than a division.

Also drop two function arguments for load_too_unbalanced, since it
takes various factors from env already.

f0b8a4afd6 sched/numa: Use group's max nid as task's preferred nid
From task_numa_placement, always try to consolidate the tasks
in a group on the group's top nid.

In case this task is part of a group that is interleaved over
multiple nodes, task_numa_migrate will set the task's preferred
nid to the best node it could find for the task, so this patch
will cause at most one run through task_numa_migrate.

4486edd12b sched/fair: Implement fast idling of CPUs when the system is partially loaded
When a system is lightly loaded (i.e. no more than 1 job per cpu),
attempt to pull job to a cpu before putting it to idle is unnecessary and
can be skipped.  This patch adds an indicator so the scheduler can know
when there's no more than 1 active job is on any CPU in the system to
skip needless job pulls.

On a 4 socket machine with a request/response kind of workload from
clients, we saw about 0.13 msec delay when we go through a full load
balance to try pull job from all the other cpus.  While 0.1 msec was
spent on processing the request and generating a response, the 0.13 msec
load balance overhead was actually more than the actual work being done.
This overhead can be skipped much of the time for lightly loaded systems.

With this patch, we tested with a netperf request/response workload that
has the server busy with half the cpus in a 4 socket system.  We found
the patch eliminated 75% of the load balance attempts before idling a cpu.

The overhead of setting/clearing the indicator is low as we already gather
the necessary info while we call add_nr_running() and update_sd_lb_stats.()
We switch to full load balance load immediately if any cpu got more than
one job on its run queue in add_nr_running.  We'll clear the indicator
to avoid load balance when we detect no cpu's have more than one job
when we scan the work queues in update_sg_lb_stats().  We are aggressive
in turning on the load balance and opportunistic in skipping the load
balance.

c06f04c704 sched: Fix potential near-infinite distribute_cfs_runtime() loop
distribute_cfs_runtime() intentionally only hands out enough runtime to
bring each cfs_rq to 1 ns of runtime, expecting the cfs_rqs to then take
the runtime they need only once they actually get to run. However, if
they get to run sufficiently quickly, the period timer is still in
distribute_cfs_runtime() and no runtime is available, causing them to
throttle. Then distribute has to handle them again, and this can go on
until distribute has handed out all of the runtime 1ns at a time, which
takes far too long.

Instead allow access to the same runtime that distribute is handing out,
accepting that corner cases with very low quota may be able to spend the
entire cfs_b->runtime during distribute_cfs_runtime, meaning that the
runtime directly handed out by distribute_cfs_runtime was over quota. In
addition, if a cfs_rq does manage to throttle like this, make sure the
existing distribute_cfs_runtime no longer loops over it again.

002c77a48b crypto: fips - only panic on bad/missing crypto mod signatures
Per further discussion with NIST, the requirements for FIPS state that
we only need to panic the system on failed kernel module signature checks
for crypto subsystem modules. This moves the fips-mode-only module
signature check out of the generic module loading code, into the crypto
subsystem, at points where we can catch both algorithm module loads and
mode module loads. At the same time, make CONFIG_CRYPTO_FIPS dependent on
CONFIG_MODULE_SIG, as this is entirely necessary for FIPS mode.

v2: remove extraneous blank line, perform checks in static inline
function, drop no longer necessary fips.h include.

1f9a7268c6 perf: Do not allow optimized switch for non-cloned events
The context check in perf_event_context_sched_out allows
non-cloned context to be part of the optimized schedule
out switch.

This could move non-cloned context into another workload
child. Once this child exits, the context is closed and
leaves all original (parent) events in closed state.

Any other new cloned event will have closed state and not
measure anything. And probably causing other odd bugs.

85327af61d workqueue: stronger test in process_one_work()
When POOL_DISASSOCIATED is cleared, the running worker's local CPU should
be the same as pool->cpu without any exception even during cpu-hotplug.

This patch changes "(proposition_A && proposition_B && proposition_C)"
to "(proposition_B && proposition_C)", so if the old compound
proposition is true, the new one must be true too. so this won't hide
any possible bug which can be hit by old test.

3de5e88485 workqueue: clear POOL_DISASSOCIATED in rebind_workers()
a9ab775bca ("workqueue: directly restore CPU affinity of workers
from CPU_ONLINE") moved pool locking into rebind_workers() but left
"pool->flags &= ~POOL_DISASSOCIATED" in workqueue_cpu_up_callback().

There is nothing necessarily wrong with it, but there is no benefit
either.  Let's move it into rebind_workers() and achieve the following
benefits:

  1) better readability, POOL_DISASSOCIATED is cleared in rebind_workers()
     as expected.

  2) we can guarantee that, when POOL_DISASSOCIATED is clear, the
     running workers of the pool are on the local CPU (pool->cpu).

76bb5ab8f6 cpuset: break kernfs active protection in cpuset_write_resmask()
Writing to either "cpuset.cpus" or "cpuset.mems" file flushes
cpuset_hotplug_work so that cpu or memory hotunplug doesn't end up
migrating tasks off a cpuset after new resources are added to it.

As cpuset_hotplug_work calls into cgroup core via
cgroup_transfer_tasks(), this flushing adds the dependency to cgroup
core locking from cpuset_write_resmak().  This used to be okay because
cgroup interface files were protected by a different mutex; however,
8353da1f91 ("cgroup: remove cgroup_tree_mutex") simplified the
cgroup core locking and this dependency became a deadlock hazard -
cgroup file removal performed under cgroup core lock tries to drain
on-going file operation which is trying to flush cpuset_hotplug_work
blocked on the same cgroup core lock.

The locking simplification was done because kernfs added an a lot
easier way to deal with circular dependencies involving kernfs active
protection.  Let's use the same strategy in cpuset and break active
protection in cpuset_write_resmask().  While it isn't the prettiest,
this is a very rare, likely unique, situation which also goes away on
the unified hierarchy.

The commands to trigger the deadlock warning without the patch and the
lockdep output follow.

a737e6dd7b ftrace: Get rid of obsolete global_start_up variable
It seems like it's a leftover from commit 4104d326b6 ("ftrace:
Remove global function list and call function directly").  As it
isn't updated at all, checking its value is meaningless.

Let's get rid of it.

7b039cb4c5 tracing: Add trace_seq_buffer_ptr() helper function
There's several locations in the kernel that open code the calculation
of the next location in the trace_seq buffer. This is usually done with

  p->buffer + p->len

Instead of having this open coded, supply a helper function in the
header to do it for them. This function is called trace_seq_buffer_ptr().

6d2289f3fa tracing: Make trace_seq_putmem_hex() more robust
Currently trace_seq_putmem_hex() can only take as a parameter a pointer
to something that is 8 bytes or less, otherwise it will overflow the
buffer. This is protected by a macro that encompasses the call to
trace_seq_putmem_hex() that has a BUILD_BUG_ON() for the variable before
it is passed in. This is not very robust and if trace_seq_putmem_hex() ever
gets used outside that macro it will cause issues.

Instead of only being able to produce a hex output of memory that is for
a single word, change it to be more robust and allow any size input.

36aabfff50 tracing: Clean up trace_seq.c
For using trace_seq_*() functions in NMI context, I posted a patch to move
it to the lib/ directory. This caused Andrew Morton to take a look at the code.
He went through and gave a lot of comments about missing kernel doc,
inconsistent types for the save variable, mix match of EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL()
and EXPORT_SYMBOL() as well as missing EXPORT_SYMBOL*()s. There were
a few comments about the way variables were being compared (int vs uint).

All these were good review comments and should be implemented regardless of
if trace_seq.c should be moved to lib/ or not.

12306276fa tracing: Move the trace_seq_* functions into its own trace_seq.c file
The trace_seq_*() functions are a nice utility that allows users to manipulate
buffers with printf() like formats. It has its own trace_seq.h header in
include/linux and should be in its own file. Being tied with trace_output.c
is rather awkward.
