be814112fd time: Remove CONFIG_TIMER_STATS
Currently CONFIG_TIMER_STATS exposes process information across namespaces:

kernel/time/timer_list.c print_timer():

        SEQ_printf(m, ", %s/%d", tmp, timer->start_pid);

/proc/timer_list:

 #11: <0000000000000000>, hrtimer_wakeup, S:01, do_nanosleep, cron/2570

Given that the tracer can give the same information, this patch entirely
removes CONFIG_TIMER_STATS.

e2b6ea208b workqueue: implement lockup detector
Workqueue stalls can happen from a variety of usage bugs such as
missing WQ_MEM_RECLAIM flag or concurrency managed work item
indefinitely staying RUNNING.  These stalls can be extremely difficult
to hunt down because the usual warning mechanisms can't detect
workqueue stalls and the internal state is pretty opaque.

To alleviate the situation, this patch implements workqueue lockup
detector.  It periodically monitors all worker_pools periodically and,
if any pool failed to make forward progress longer than the threshold
duration, triggers warning and dumps workqueue state as follows.

 BUG: workqueue lockup - pool cpus=0 node=0 flags=0x0 nice=0 stuck for 31s!
 Showing busy workqueues and worker pools:
 workqueue events: flags=0x0
   pwq 0: cpus=0 node=0 flags=0x0 nice=0 active=17/256
     pending: monkey_wrench_fn, e1000_watchdog, cache_reap, vmstat_shepherd, release_one_tty, release_one_tty, release_one_tty, release_one_tty, release_one_tty, release_one_tty, release_one_tty, release_one_tty, release_one_tty, release_one_tty, release_one_tty, release_one_tty, cgroup_release_agent
 workqueue events_power_efficient: flags=0x80
   pwq 0: cpus=0 node=0 flags=0x0 nice=0 active=2/256
     pending: check_lifetime, neigh_periodic_work
 workqueue cgroup_pidlist_destroy: flags=0x0
   pwq 0: cpus=0 node=0 flags=0x0 nice=0 active=1/1
     pending: cgroup_pidlist_destroy_work_fn
 ...

The detection mechanism is controller through kernel parameter
workqueue.watchdog_thresh and can be updated at runtime through the
sysfs module parameter file.

v2: Decoupled from softlockup control knobs.

3bf4100be3 Revert "kernel: lib: allow larger stack frame size for KASan"
This reverts commit 8bb334401c
("kernel: lib: allow larger stack frame size for KASan").

Stack frame size set to 5600 to fix compilation error/s if
KASAN enabled by the commit 8bb334401c ("kernel: lib: allow
larger stack frame size for KASan") in 3.18 Kernel and same
commit got pulled into Kernel 4.4, which replaced stack
frame size 0 with 5600 as part of resolution of merge conflict.
But, by setting stack frame size to 0 will ignore stack frame
size warnings and so the compilation errors. So, revert commit
to fix below error while compiling Kernel 4.4 with KASAN enabled
and GCC 5.1 compiler.

e2cddd1040 kernel/lib: add additional debug capabilites for data corruption
Data corruptions in the kernel often end up in system crashes that
are easier to debug closer to the time of detection. Specifically,
if we do not panic immediately after lock or list corruptions have been
detected, the problem context is lost in the ensuing system mayhem.
Add support for allowing system crash immediately after such corruptions
are detected. The CONFIG option controls the enabling/disabling of the
feature.

788349f659 UBSAN: run-time undefined behavior sanity checker
UBSAN uses compile-time instrumentation to catch undefined behavior
(UB).  Compiler inserts code that perform certain kinds of checks before
operations that could cause UB.  If check fails (i.e.  UB detected)
__ubsan_handle_* function called to print error message.

So the most of the work is done by compiler.  This patch just implements
ubsan handlers printing errors.

GCC has this capability since 4.9.x [1] (see -fsanitize=undefined
option and its suboptions).
However GCC 5.x has more checkers implemented [2].
Article [3] has a bit more details about UBSAN in the GCC.

55d35d82b7 hardlockup: detect hard lockups without NMIs using secondary cpus
Emulate NMIs on systems where they are not available by using timer
interrupts on other cpus.  Each cpu will use its softlockup hrtimer
to check that the next cpu is processing hrtimer interrupts by
verifying that a counter is increasing.

This patch is useful on systems where the hardlockup detector is not
available due to a lack of NMIs, for example most ARM SoCs.
Without this patch any cpu stuck with interrupts disabled can
cause a hardware watchdog reset with no debugging information,
but with this patch the kernel can detect the lockup and panic,
which can result in useful debugging info.

707cc7280f test_printf: test printf family at runtime
This adds a simple module for testing the kernel's printf facilities.
Previously, some %p extensions have caused a wrong return value in case
the entire output didn't fit and/or been unusable in kasprintf().  This
should help catch such issues.  Also, it should help ensure that changes
to the formatting algorithms don't break anything.

I'm not sure if we have a struct dentry or struct file lying around at
boot time or if we can fake one, but most %p extensions should be
testable, as should the ordinary number and string formatting.

The nature of vararg functions means we can't use a more conventional
table-driven approach.

For now, this is mostly a skeleton; contributions are very
welcome. Some tests are/will be slightly annoying to write, since the
expected output depends on stuff like CONFIG_*, sizeof(long), runtime
values etc.

3f181b4d86 lib/Kconfig.debug: disable -Wframe-larger-than warnings with KASAN=y
When the kernel compiled with KASAN=y, GCC adds redzones for each
variable on stack.  This enlarges function's stack frame and causes:

	'warning: the frame size of X bytes is larger than Y bytes'

The worst case I've seen for now is following:

   ../net/wireless/nl80211.c: In function `nl80211_send_wiphy':
   ../net/wireless/nl80211.c:1731:1: warning: the frame size of 5448 bytes is larger than 2048 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=]

That kind of warning becomes useless with KASAN=y.  It doesn't
necessarily indicate that there is some problem in the code, thus we
should turn it off.

(The KASAN=y stack size in increased from 16k to 32k for this reason)

47490ec141 modpost: Add flag -E for making section mismatches fatal
The section mismatch warning can be easy to miss during the kernel build
process. Allow it to be marked as fatal to be easily caught and prevent
bugs from slipping in.

Setting CONFIG_SECTION_MISMATCH_WARN_ONLY=y causes these warnings to be
non-fatal, since there are a number of section mismatches when using
allmodconfig on some architectures, and we do not want to break these
builds by default.

Pull locking and atomic updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "Main changes in this cycle are:

   - Extend atomic primitives with coherent logic op primitives
     (atomic_{or,and,xor}()) and deprecate the old partial APIs
     (atomic_{set,clear}_mask())

     The old ops were incoherent with incompatible signatures across
     architectures and with incomplete support.  Now every architecture
     supports the primitives consistently (by Peter Zijlstra)

   - Generic support for 'relaxed atomics':

       - _acquire/release/relaxed() flavours of xchg(), cmpxchg() and {add,sub}_return()
       - atomic_read_acquire()
       - atomic_set_release()

     This came out of porting qwrlock code to arm64 (by Will Deacon)

   - Clean up the fragile static_key APIs that were causing repeat bugs,
     by introducing a new one:

       DEFINE_STATIC_KEY_TRUE(name);
       DEFINE_STATIC_KEY_FALSE(name);

     which define a key of different types with an initial true/false
     value.

     Then allow:

       static_branch_likely()
       static_branch_unlikely()

     to take a key of either type and emit the right instruction for the
     case.  To be able to know the 'type' of the static key we encode it
     in the jump entry (by Peter Zijlstra)

   - Static key self-tests (by Jason Baron)

   - qrwlock optimizations (by Waiman Long)

   - small futex enhancements (by Davidlohr Bueso)

ab51fbab39 futex: Fault/error injection capabilities
Although futexes are well known for being a royal pita,
we really have very little debugging capabilities - except
for relying on tglx's eye half the time.

By simply making use of the existing fault-injection machinery,
we can improve this situation, allowing generating artificial
uaddress faults and deadlock scenarios. Of course, when this is
disabled in production systems, the overhead for failure checks
is practically zero -- so this is very cheap at the same time.
Future work would be nice to now enhance trinity to make use of
this.

There is a special tunable 'ignore-private', which can filter
out private futexes. Given the tsk->make_it_fail filter and
this option, pi futexes can be narrowed down pretty closely.

82d0f4c089 rcu: Directly drive TASKS_RCU from Kconfig
Currently, Kconfig will ask the user whether TASKS_RCU should be set.
This is silly because Kconfig already has all the information that it
needs to set this parameter.  This commit therefore directly drives
the value of TASKS_RCU via "select" statements.  Which means that
as subsystems require TASKS_RCU, those subsystems will need to add
"select" statements of their own.

0f41c0ddad rcu: Provide diagnostic option to slow down grace-period scans
Grace-period scans of the rcu_node combining tree normally
proceed quite quickly, so that it is very difficult to reproduce
races against them.  This commit therefore allows grace-period
pre-initialization and cleanup to be artificially slowed down,
increasing race-reproduction probability.  A pair of pairs of new
Kconfig parameters are provided, RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_PREINIT to
enable the slowing down of propagating CPU-hotplug changes up the
combining tree along with RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_PREINIT_DELAY to
specify the delay in jiffies, and RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_CLEANUP
to enable the slowing down of the end-of-grace-period cleanup scan
along with RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_CLEANUP_DELAY to specify the delay
in jiffies.  Boot-time parameters named rcutree.gp_preinit_delay and
rcutree.gp_cleanup_delay allow these delays to be specified at boot time.

8d7dc9283f rcu: Control grace-period delays directly from value
In a misguided attempt to avoid an #ifdef, the use of the
gp_init_delay module parameter was conditioned on the corresponding
RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT Kconfig variable, using IS_ENABLED() at
the point of use in the code.  This meant that the compiler always saw
the delay, which meant that RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT_DELAY had to be
unconditionally defined.  This in turn caused "make oldconfig" to ask
pointless questions about the value of RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT_DELAY
in cases where it was not even used.

This commit avoids these pointless questions by defining gp_init_delay
under #ifdef.  In one branch, gp_init_delay is initialized to
RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT_DELAY and is also a module parameter (thus
allowing boot-time modification), and in the other branch gp_init_delay
is a const variable initialized by default to zero.

This approach also simplifies the code at the delay point by eliminating
the IS_DEFINED().  Because gp_init_delay is constant zero in the no-delay
case intended for production use, the "gp_init_delay > 0" check causes
the delay to become dead code, as desired in this case.  In addition,
this commit replaces magic constant "10" with the preprocessor variable
PER_RCU_NODE_PERIOD, which controls the number of grace periods that
are allowed to elapse at full speed before a delay is inserted.

4a20799d11 mm: move memtest under mm
Memtest is a simple feature which fills the memory with a given set of
patterns and validates memory contents, if bad memory regions is detected
it reserves them via memblock API.  Since memblock API is widely used by
other architectures this feature can be enabled outside of x86 world.

This patch set promotes memtest to live under generic mm umbrella and
enables memtest feature for arm/arm64.

It was reported that this patch set was useful for tracking down an issue
with some errant DMA on an arm64 platform.

This patch (of 6):

There is nothing platform dependent in the core memtest code, so other
platforms might benefit from this feature too.

3c17ad19f0 timekeeping: Add debugging checks to warn if we see delays
Recently there's been requests for better sanity
checking in the time code, so that it's more clear
when something is going wrong, since timekeeping issues
could manifest in a large number of strange ways in
various subsystems.

Thus, this patch adds some extra infrastructure to
add a check to update_wall_time() to print two new
warnings:

 1) if we see the call delayed beyond the 'max_cycles'
    overflow point,

 2) or if we see the call delayed beyond the clocksource's
    'max_idle_ns' value, which is currently 50% of the
    overflow point.

This extra infrastructure is conditional on
a new CONFIG_DEBUG_TIMEKEEPING option, also
added in this patch - default off.

Tested this a bit by halting qemu for specified
lengths of time to trigger the warnings.

186bea5d35 rcutorture: Default to grace-period-initialization delays
Given that CPU-hotplug events are now applied only at the starts of
grace periods, it makes sense to unconditionally enable slow grace-period
initialization for rcutorture testing.

37745d2810 rcu: Provide diagnostic option to slow down grace-period initialization
Grace-period initialization normally proceeds quite quickly, so
that it is very difficult to reproduce races against grace-period
initialization.  This commit therefore allows grace-period
initialization to be artificially slowed down, increasing
race-reproduction probability.  A pair of new Kconfig parameters are
provided, CONFIG_RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT to enable the slowdowns, and
CONFIG_RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT_DELAY to specify the number of jiffies
of slowdown to apply.  A boot-time parameter named rcutree.gp_init_delay
allows boot-time delay to be specified.  By default, no delay will be
applied even if CONFIG_RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT is set.

9bae6592d7 rcu: Drive PROVE_RCU directly off of PROVE_LOCKING
In the past, it has been useful to enable PROVE_LOCKING without also
enabling PROVE_RCU.  However, experience with PROVE_RCU over the past
few years has demonstrated its usefulness, so this commit makes
PROVE_LOCKING directly imply PROVE_RCU.

3ee7b3fa2c scripts/gdb: add infrastructure
This provides the basic infrastructure to load kernel-specific python
helper scripts when debugging the kernel in gdb.

The loading mechanism is based on gdb loading for <objfile>-gdb.py when
opening <objfile>.  Therefore, this places a corresponding link to the
main helper script into the output directory that contains vmlinux.

The main scripts will pull in submodules containing Linux specific gdb
commands and functions.  To avoid polluting the source directory with
compiled python modules, we link to them from the object directory.

Due to gdb.parse_and_eval and string redirection for gdb.execute, we
depend on gdb >= 7.2.

This feature is enabled via CONFIG_GDB_SCRIPTS.
