bpf_percpu_hash_update() expects rcu lock to be held and warns if it's not,
which pointed out a missing rcu read lock.

The functions bpf_map_lookup_elem(map, key, value) and
bpf_map_update_elem(map, key, value, flags) need to get/set
values from all-cpus for per-cpu hash and array maps,
so that user space can aggregate/update them as necessary.
Example of single counter aggregation in user space:
unsigned int nr_cpus = sysconf(_SC_NPROCESSORS_CONF);
long values[nr_cpus];
long value = 0;
bpf_lookup_elem(fd, key, values);
for (i = 0; i < nr_cpus; i++)
value += values[i];
The user space must provide round_up(value_size, 8) * nr_cpus
array to get/set values, since kernel will use 'long' copy
of per-cpu values to try to copy good counters atomically.
It's a best-effort, since bpf programs and user space are racing
to access the same memory.

Primary use case is a histogram array of latency
where bpf program computes the latency of block requests or other
events and stores histogram of latency into array of 64 elements.
All cpus are constantly running, so normal increment is not accurate,
bpf_xadd causes cache ping-pong and this per-cpu approach allows
fastest collision-free counters.

Introduce BPF_MAP_TYPE_PERCPU_HASH map type which is used to do
accurate counters without need to use BPF_XADD instruction which turned
out to be too costly for high-performance network monitoring.
In the typical use case the 'key' is the flow tuple or other long
living object that sees a lot of events per second.
bpf_map_lookup_elem() returns per-cpu area.
Example:
struct {
u32 packets;
u32 bytes;
} * ptr = bpf_map_lookup_elem(&map, &key);
/* ptr points to this_cpu area of the value, so the following
* increments will not collide with other cpus
*/
ptr->packets ++;
ptr->bytes += skb->len;
bpf_update_elem() atomically creates a new element where all per-cpu
values are zero initialized and this_cpu value is populated with
given 'value'.
Note that non-per-cpu hash map always allocates new element
and then deletes old after rcu grace period to maintain atomicity
of update. Per-cpu hash map updates element values in-place.

Now that the perf_event_ctx_lock_nested() call has moved from
put_event() into perf_event_release_kernel() the first reason is no
longer valid as that can no longer happen.
The second reason seems to have been invalidated when Al Viro made fput()
unconditionally async in the following commit:
4a9d4b024a ("switch fput to task_work_add")
such that munmap()->fput()->release()->perf_release() would no longer happen.
Therefore, remove the annotation. This should increase the efficiency
of lockdep coverage of perf locking.

The orphan cleanup workqueue doesn't always catch orphans, for example,
if they never schedule after they are orphaned. IOW, the event leak is
still very real. It also wouldn't work for kernel counters.
Doing it synchonously is a little hairy due to lock inversion issues,
but is made to work.

There are two concepts of owner wrt an event and they are conflated:
- event::owner / event::owner_list,
used by prctl(.option = PR_TASK_PERF_EVENTS_{EN,DIS}ABLE).
- the 'owner' of the event object, typically the file descriptor.
Currently these two concepts are conflated, which gives trouble with
scm_rights passing of file descriptors. Passing the event and then
closing the creating task would render the event 'orphan' and would
have it cleared out. Unlikely what is expectd.
This patch untangles these two concepts by using PERF_EVENT_STATE_EXIT
to denote the second type.

The second fix is just removing an unused field in a struct that is no

The third is another cut-and-paste fix that had a tracepoint recording
the wrong field (it was recording the previous field a second time).

There is a race between perf_event_exit_task_context() and
orphans_remove_work() which results in a use-after-free.
We mark ctx->task with TASK_TOMBSTONE to indicate a context is
'dead', under ctx->lock. After which point event_function_call()
on any event of that context will NOP
A concurrent orphans_remove_work() will only hold ctx->mutex for
the list iteration and not serialize against this. Therefore its
possible that orphans_remove_work()'s perf_remove_from_context()
call will fail, but we'll continue to free the event, with the
result of free'd memory still being on lists and everything.
Once perf_event_exit_task_context() gets around to acquiring
ctx->mutex it too will iterate the event list, encounter the
already free'd event and proceed to free it _again_. This fails
with the WARN in free_event().
Plug the race by having perf_event_exit_task_context() hold
ctx::mutex over the whole tear-down, thereby 'naturally'
serializing against all other sites, including the orphan work.

We should set event->owner before we install the event,
otherwise there is a hole where the target task can fork() and
we'll not inherit the event because it thinks the event is
orphaned.

The APM emulation code does multiple things, and some of them depend on
PM_SLEEP, while the battery management does not. However, selecting
the symbol like SHARPSL_PM does causes a Kconfig warning:
warning: (SHARPSL_PM && PMAC_APM_EMU) selects APM_EMULATION which has unmet direct dependencies (PM && SYS_SUPPORTS_APM_EMULATION)
From all I can tell, this is completely harmless, and we can simply allow
APM_EMULATION to be enabled here, even if PM is not.

commit 0ff53d0964 sets the next tick interrupt to the last jiffies update,
i.e. in the past, because the forward operation is invoked before the set
operation. There is no resulting damage (yet), but we get an extra pointless
tick interrupt.
Revert the order so we get the next tick interrupt in the future.

A couple of functions in kernel/time/tick-sched.c are only
relevant for oneshot timer mode, i.e. when hires-timers or
nohz mode are enabled. If both are disabled, we get gcc warnings
about them:
kernel/time/tick-sched.c:98:16: warning: 'tick_init_jiffy_update' defined but not used [-Wunused-function]
static ktime_t tick_init_jiffy_update(void)

This encloses the whole set of functions in an appropriate ifdef
to avoid the warning and to make it clearer when they are used.

Let's take the (outlandish) example of an interrupt controller
capable of handling both wired interrupts and PCI MSIs.
With the current code, the PCI MSI domain is going to be tagged
with DOMAIN_BUS_PCI_MSI, and the wired domain with DOMAIN_BUS_ANY.
Things get hairy when we start looking up the domain for a wired
interrupt (typically when creating it based on some firmware
information - DT or ACPI).
In irq_create_fwspec_mapping(), we perform the lookup using
DOMAIN_BUS_ANY, which is actually used as a wildcard. This gives
us one chance out of two to end up with the wrong domain, and
we try to configure a wired interrupt with the MSI domain.
Everything grinds to a halt pretty quickly.
What we really need to do is to start looking for a domain that
would uniquely identify a wired interrupt domain, and only use
DOMAIN_BUS_ANY as a fallback.
In order to solve this, let's introduce a new DOMAIN_BUS_WIRED
token, which is going to be used exactly as described above.
Of course, this depends on the irqchip to setup the domain
bus_token, and nobody had to implement this so far.
Only so far.

Sasha reported a lockdep splat about a potential deadlock between RCU boosting
rtmutex and the posix timer it_lock.
CPU0 CPU1
rtmutex_lock(&rcu->rt_mutex)
spin_lock(&rcu->rt_mutex.wait_lock)
local_irq_disable()
spin_lock(&timer->it_lock)
spin_lock(&rcu->mutex.wait_lock)
--> Interrupt
spin_lock(&timer->it_lock)
This is caused by the following code sequence on CPU1
rcu_read_lock()
x = lookup();
if (x)
spin_lock_irqsave(&x->it_lock);
rcu_read_unlock();
return x;
We could fix that in the posix timer code by keeping rcu read locked across
the spinlocked and irq disabled section, but the above sequence is common and
there is no reason not to support it.
Taking rt_mutex.wait_lock irq safe prevents the deadlock.

As commit 1effd9f193 ("sched/numa: Fix unsafe get_task_struct() in
task_numa_assign()") points out, the rcu_read_lock() cannot protect the
task_struct from being freed in the finish_task_switch(). And the bug
happens in the process of calculation of imp which requires the access of
p->numa_faults being freed in the following path:
do_exit()
current->flags |= PF_EXITING;
release_task()
~~delayed_put_task_struct()~~
schedule()
...
...
rq->curr = next;
context_switch()
finish_task_switch()
put_task_struct()
__put_task_struct()
task_numa_free()
The fix here to get_task_struct() early before end of dst_rq->lock to
protect the calculation process and also put_task_struct() in the
corresponding point if finally the dst_rq->curr somehow cannot be
assigned.
Additional credit to Liang Chen who helped fix the error logic and add the
put_task_struct() to the place it missed.

Recently, in commit 37cf4dc337 I forgot to check if the timeval being passed
was actually a timespec (as is signaled with ADJ_NANO).
This resulted in that patch breaking ADJ_SETOFFSET users who set
ADJ_NANO, by rejecting valid timespecs that were compared with
valid timeval ranges.
This patch addresses this by checking for the ADJ_NANO flag and
using the timepsec check instead in that case.

Commit 51164251f5 "sched / idle: Drop default_idle_call() fallback
from call_cpuidle()" made find_deepest_state() return non-negative
value and check all the states with index > 0. Also as a result,
find_deepest_state() returns 0 even when enter_freeze callbacks are not
implemented and enter_freeze_proper() is called which ends up crashing
the kernel.
This patch updates the check for index > 0 in cpuidle_enter_freeze and
cpuidle_idle_call(when idle_should_freeze is true) to restore the
suspend-to-idle functionality in absence of enter_freeze callback.

We are currently using asynchronous deallocation in the error path in
AUX mmap code, which is unnecessary and also presents a problem for users
that wish to probe for the biggest possible buffer size they can get:
they'll get -EINVAL on all subsequent attemts to allocate a smaller
buffer before the asynchronous deallocation callback frees up the pages
from the previous unsuccessful attempt.
Currently, gdb does that for allocating AUX buffers for Intel PT traces.
More specifically, overwrite mode of AUX pmus that don't support hardware
sg (some implementations of Intel PT, for instance) is limited to only
one contiguous high order allocation for its buffer and there is no way
of knowing its size without trying.
This patch changes error path freeing to be synchronous as there won't
be any contenders for the AUX pages at that point.

There is a race against perf_event_exit_task() vs
event_function_call(),find_get_context(),perf_install_in_context()
(iow, everyone).
Since there is no permanent marker on a context that its dead, it is
quite possible that we access (and even modify) a context after its
passed through perf_event_exit_task().
For instance, find_get_context() might find the context still
installed, but by the time we get to perf_install_in_context() it
might already have passed through perf_event_exit_task() and be
considered dead, we will however still add the event to it.
Solve this by marking a ctx dead by setting its ctx->task value to -1,
it must be !0 so we still know its a (former) task context.

There is one common bug left in all the event_function_call() users,
between loading ctx->task and getting to the remote_function(),
ctx->task can already have been changed.
Therefore we need to double check and retry if ctx->task != current.
Insert another trampoline specific to event_function_call() that
checks for this and further validates state. This also allows getting
rid of the active/inactive functions.

The perf_remove_from_context() usage in __perf_event_exit_task() is
different from the other usages in that this site has already

There is a very nasty problem wrt disabling the perf task scheduling
hooks.
Currently we {set,clear} ctx->is_active on every
__perf_event_task_sched_{in,out}, _however_ this means that if we
disable these calls we'll have task contexts with ->is_active set that
are not active and 'active' task contexts without ->is_active set.
This can result in event_function_call() looping on the ctx->is_active
condition basically indefinitely.
Resolve this by changing things such that contexts without events do
not set ->is_active like we used to. From this invariant it trivially
follows that if there are no (task) events, every task ctx is inactive
and disabling the context switch hooks is harmless.
This leaves two places that need attention (and already had
accumulated weird and wonderful hacks to work around, without
recognising this actual problem).
Namely:
- perf_install_in_context() will need to deal with installing events
in an inactive context, meaning it cannot rely on ctx-is_active for
its IPIs.
- perf_remove_from_context() will have to mark a context as inactive
when it removes the last event.
For specific detail, see the patch/comments.
