efcdd350d1 fs/epoll: make nesting accounting safe for -rt kernel
Davidlohr Bueso pointed out that when CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC is set
ep_poll_safewake() can take several non-raw spinlocks after disabling
interrupts.  Since a spinlock can block in the -rt kernel, we can't take a
spinlock after disabling interrupts.  So let's re-work how we determine
the nesting level such that it plays nicely with the -rt kernel.

Let's introduce a 'nests' field in struct eventpoll that records the
current nesting level during ep_poll_callback().  Then, if we nest again
we can find the previous struct eventpoll that we were called from and
increase our count by 1.  The 'nests' field is protected by
ep->poll_wait.lock.

I've also moved the visited field to reduce the size of struct eventpoll
from 184 bytes to 176 bytes on x86_64 for !CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC, which
is typical for a production config.

1b53734bd0 epoll: fix possible lost wakeup on epoll_ctl() path
This fixes possible lost wakeup introduced by commit a218cc4914.
Originally modifications to ep->wq were serialized by ep->wq.lock, but
in commit a218cc4914 ("epoll: use rwlock in order to reduce
ep_poll_callback() contention") a new rw lock was introduced in order to
relax fd event path, i.e. callers of ep_poll_callback() function.

After the change ep_modify and ep_insert (both are called on epoll_ctl()
path) were switched to ep->lock, but ep_poll (epoll_wait) was using
ep->wq.lock on wqueue list modification.

The bug doesn't lead to any wqueue list corruptions, because wake up
path and list modifications were serialized by ep->wq.lock internally,
but actual waitqueue_active() check prior wake_up() call can be
reordered with modifications of ep ready list, thus wake up can be lost.

And yes, can be healed by explicit smp_mb():

  list_add_tail(&epi->rdlink, &ep->rdllist);
  smp_mb();
  if (waitqueue_active(&ep->wq))
	wake_up(&ep->wp);

But let's make it simple, thus current patch replaces ep->wq.lock with
the ep->lock for wqueue modifications, thus wake up path always observes
activeness of the wqueue correcty.

339ddb53d3 fs/epoll: remove unnecessary wakeups of nested epoll
Take the case where we have:

        t0
         | (ew)
        e0
         | (et)
        e1
         | (lt)
        s0

t0: thread 0
e0: epoll fd 0
e1: epoll fd 1
s0: socket fd 0
ew: epoll_wait
et: edge-trigger
lt: level-trigger

We remove unnecessary wakeups to prevent the nested epoll that working in edge-
triggered mode to waking up continuously.

Test code:
 #include <unistd.h>
 #include <sys/epoll.h>
 #include <sys/socket.h>

 int main(int argc, char *argv[])
 {
 	int sfd[2];
 	int efd[2];
 	struct epoll_event e;

 	if (socketpair(AF_UNIX, SOCK_STREAM, 0, sfd) < 0)
 		goto out;

 	efd[0] = epoll_create(1);
 	if (efd[0] < 0)
 		goto out;

 	efd[1] = epoll_create(1);
 	if (efd[1] < 0)
 		goto out;

 	e.events = EPOLLIN;
 	if (epoll_ctl(efd[1], EPOLL_CTL_ADD, sfd[0], &e) < 0)
 		goto out;

 	e.events = EPOLLIN | EPOLLET;
 	if (epoll_ctl(efd[0], EPOLL_CTL_ADD, efd[1], &e) < 0)
 		goto out;

 	if (write(sfd[1], "w", 1) != 1)
 		goto out;

 	if (epoll_wait(efd[0], &e, 1, 0) != 1)
 		goto out;

 	if (epoll_wait(efd[0], &e, 1, 0) != 0)
 		goto out;

 	close(efd[0]);
 	close(efd[1]);
 	close(sfd[0]);
 	close(sfd[1]);

 	return 0;

 out:
 	return -1;
 }

f6520c5208 epoll: simplify ep_poll_safewake() for CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC
Currently, ep_poll_safewake() in the CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC case uses
ep_call_nested() in order to pass the correct subclass argument to
spin_lock_irqsave_nested().  However, ep_call_nested() adds unnecessary
checks for epoll depth and loops that are already verified when doing
EPOLL_CTL_ADD.  This mirrors a conversion that was done for
!CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC in: commit 37b5e5212a ("epoll: remove
ep_call_nested() from ep_eventpoll_poll()")

eec4844fae proc/sysctl: add shared variables for range check
In the sysctl code the proc_dointvec_minmax() function is often used to
validate the user supplied value between an allowed range.  This
function uses the extra1 and extra2 members from struct ctl_table as
minimum and maximum allowed value.

On sysctl handler declaration, in every source file there are some
readonly variables containing just an integer which address is assigned
to the extra1 and extra2 members, so the sysctl range is enforced.

The special values 0, 1 and INT_MAX are very often used as range
boundary, leading duplication of variables like zero=0, one=1,
int_max=INT_MAX in different source files:

    $ git grep -E '\.extra[12].*&(zero|one|int_max)' |wc -l
    248

Add a const int array containing the most commonly used values, some
macros to refer more easily to the correct array member, and use them
instead of creating a local one for every object file.

This is the bloat-o-meter output comparing the old and new binary
compiled with the default Fedora config:

b772434be0 signal: simplify set_user_sigmask/restore_user_sigmask
task->saved_sigmask and ->restore_sigmask are only used in the ret-from-
syscall paths.  This means that set_user_sigmask() can save ->blocked in
->saved_sigmask and do set_restore_sigmask() to indicate that ->blocked
was modified.

This way the callers do not need 2 sigset_t's passed to set/restore and
restore_user_sigmask() renamed to restore_saved_sigmask_unless() turns
into the trivial helper which just calls restore_saved_sigmask().

97abc889ee signal: remove the wrong signal_pending() check in restore_user_sigmask()
This is the minimal fix for stable, I'll send cleanups later.

Commit 854a6ed568 ("signal: Add restore_user_sigmask()") introduced
the visible change which breaks user-space: a signal temporary unblocked
by set_user_sigmask() can be delivered even if the caller returns
success or timeout.

Change restore_user_sigmask() to accept the additional "interrupted"
argument which should be used instead of signal_pending() check, and
update the callers.

Eric said:

: For clarity.  I don't think this is required by posix, or fundamentally to
: remove the races in select.  It is what linux has always done and we have
: applications who care so I agree this fix is needed.
:
: Further in any case where the semantic change that this patch rolls back
: (aka where allowing a signal to be delivered and the select like call to
: complete) would be advantage we can do as well if not better by using
: signalfd.
:
: Michael is there any chance we can get this guarantee of the linux
: implementation of pselect and friends clearly documented.  The guarantee
: that if the system call completes successfully we are guaranteed that no
: signal that is unblocked by using sigmask will be delivered?

a218cc4914 epoll: use rwlock in order to reduce ep_poll_callback() contention
The goal of this patch is to reduce contention of ep_poll_callback()
which can be called concurrently from different CPUs in case of high
events rates and many fds per epoll.  Problem can be very well
reproduced by generating events (write to pipe or eventfd) from many
threads, while consumer thread does polling.  In other words this patch
increases the bandwidth of events which can be delivered from sources to
the poller by adding poll items in a lockless way to the list.

The main change is in replacement of the spinlock with a rwlock, which
is taken on read in ep_poll_callback(), and then by adding poll items to
the tail of the list using xchg atomic instruction.  Write lock is taken
everywhere else in order to stop list modifications and guarantee that
list updates are fully completed (I assume that write side of a rwlock
does not starve, it seems qrwlock implementation has these guarantees).

The following are some microbenchmark results based on the test [1]
which starts threads which generate N events each.  The test ends when
all events are successfully fetched by the poller thread:

 spinlock
 ========

 threads  events/ms  run-time ms
       8       6402        12495
      16       7045        22709
      32       7395        43268

 rwlock + xchg
 =============

 threads  events/ms  run-time ms
       8      10038         7969
      16      12178        13138
      32      13223        24199

According to the results bandwidth of delivered events is significantly
increased, thus execution time is reduced.

This patch was tested with different sort of microbenchmarks and
artificial delays (e.g.  "udelay(get_random_int() & 0xff)") introduced
in kernel on paths where items are added to lists.

c3e320b615 epoll: unify awaking of wakeup source on ep_poll_callback() path
Original comment "Activate ep->ws since epi->ws may get deactivated at
any time" indeed sounds loud, but it is incorrect, because the path
where we check epi->ws is a path where insert to ovflist happens, i.e.
ep_scan_ready_list() has taken ep->mtx and waits for this callback to
finish, thus ep_modify() (which unregisters wakeup source) waits for
ep_scan_ready_list().

Here in this patch I simply call ep_pm_stay_awake_rcu(), which is a bit
extra for this path (indirectly protected by main ep->mtx, so even rcu
is not needed), but I do not want to create another naked
__ep_pm_stay_awake() variant only for this particular case, so rcu variant
is just better for all the cases.

c141175d01 epoll: make sure all elements in ready list are in FIFO order
Patch series "use rwlock in order to reduce ep_poll_callback()

The last patch targets the contention problem in ep_poll_callback(),
which can be very well reproduced by generating events (write to pipe or
eventfd) from many threads, while consumer thread does polling.

The following are some microbenchmark results based on the test [1]
which starts threads which generate N events each.  The test ends when

      32       7395        43268

      32      13223        24199

According to the results bandwidth of delivered events is significantly
increased, thus execution time is reduced.

This patch (of 4):

All coming events are stored in FIFO order and this is also should be
applicable to ->ovflist, which originally is stack, i.e.  LIFO.

Thus to keep correct FIFO order ->ovflist should reversed by adding
elements to the head of the read list but not to the tail.

86c051793b fs/epoll: deal with wait_queue only once
There is no reason why we rearm the waitiqueue upon every fetch_events
retry (for when events are found yet send_events() fails).  If nothing
else, this saves four lock operations per retry, and furthermore reduces
the scope of the lock even further.

abc610e01c fs/epoll: avoid barrier after an epoll_wait(2) timeout
Upon timeout, we can just exit out of the loop, without the cost of the
changing the task's state with an smp_store_mb call.  Just exit out of
the loop and be done - setting the task state afterwards will be, of

c5a282e963 fs/epoll: reduce the scope of wq lock in epoll_wait()
This patch aims at reducing ep wq.lock hold times in epoll_wait(2).  For
the blocking case, there is no need to constantly take and drop the
spinlock, which is only needed to manipulate the waitqueue.

The call to ep_events_available() is now lockless, and only exposed to
benign races.  Here, if false positive (returns available events and
does not see another thread deleting an epi from the list) we call into
send_events and then the list's state is correctly seen.  Otoh, if a
false negative and we don't see a list_add_tail(), for example, from irq
callback, then it is rechecked again before blocking, which will see the
correct state.

In order for more accuracy to see concurrent list_del_init(), use the
list_empty_careful() variant -- of course, this won't be safe against
insertions from wakeup.

For the overflow list we obviously need to prevent load/store tearing as
we don't want to see partial values while the ready list is disabled.

76699a67f3 fs/epoll: drop ovflist branch prediction
The ep->ovflist is a secondary ready-list to temporarily store events
that might occur when doing sproc without holding the ep->wq.lock.  This
accounts for every time we check for ready events and also send events
back to userspace; both callbacks, particularly the latter because of
copy_to_user, can account for a non-trivial time.

As such, the unlikely() check to see if the pointer is being used, seems
both misleading and sub-optimal.  In fact, we go to an awful lot of
trouble to sync both lists, and populating the ovflist is far from an
uncommon scenario.

For example, profiling a concurrent epoll_wait(2) benchmark, with
CONFIG_PROFILE_ANNOTATED_BRANCHES shows that for a two threads a 33%
incorrect rate was seen; and when incrementally increasing the number of
epoll instances (which is used, for example for multiple queuing load
balancing models), up to a 90% incorrect rate was seen.

Similarly, by deleting the prediction, 3% throughput boost was seen
across incremental threads.

74bdc12985 fs/epoll: remove max_nests argument from ep_call_nested()
Patch series "epoll: some miscellaneous optimizations".

The following are some incremental optimizations on some of the epoll
core.  Each patch has the details, but together, the series is seen to
shave off measurable cycles on a number of systems and workloads.

For example, on a 40-core IB, a pipetest as well as parallel
epoll_wait() benchmark show around a 20-30% increase in raw operations
per second when the box is fully occupied (incremental thread counts),
and up to 15% performance improvement with lower counts.

Passes ltp epoll related testcases.

This patch(of 6):

All callers pass the EP_MAX_NESTS constant already, so lets simplify
this a tad and get rid of the redundant parameter for nested eventpolls.

96d4f267e4 Remove 'type' argument from access_ok() function
Nobody has actually used the type (VERIFY_READ vs VERIFY_WRITE) argument
of the user address range verification function since we got rid of the
old racy i386-only code to walk page tables by hand.

It existed because the original 80386 would not honor the write protect
bit when in kernel mode, so you had to do COW by hand before doing any
user access.  But we haven't supported that in a long time, and these
days the 'type' argument is a purely historical artifact.

A discussion about extending 'user_access_begin()' to do the range
checking resulted this patch, because there is no way we're going to
move the old VERIFY_xyz interface to that model.  And it's best done at
the end of the merge window when I've done most of my merges, so let's
just get this done once and for all.

This patch was mostly done with a sed-script, with manual fix-ups for
the cases that weren't of the trivial 'access_ok(VERIFY_xyz' form.

There were a couple of notable cases:

 - csky still had the old "verify_area()" name as an alias.

 - the iter_iov code had magical hardcoded knowledge of the actual
   values of VERIFY_{READ,WRITE} (not that they mattered, since nothing
   really used it)

 - microblaze used the type argument for a debug printout

but other than those oddities this should be a total no-op patch.

I tried to fix up all architectures, did fairly extensive grepping for
access_ok() uses, and the changes are trivial, but I may have missed
something.  Any missed conversion should be trivially fixable, though.

679abf381a fs/eventpoll.c: loosen irq safety in ep_poll()
Similar to other calls, ep_poll() is not called with interrupts disabled,
and we can therefore avoid the irq save/restore dance and just disable
local irqs.  In fact, the call should never be called in irq context at
all, considering that the only path is

epoll_wait(2) -> do_epoll_wait() -> ep_poll().

When running on a 2 socket 40-core (ht) IvyBridge a common pipe based
epoll_wait(2) microbenchmark, the following performance improvements are
seen:

    # threads       vanilla         dirty
	 1          1805587	    2106412
	 2          1854064	    2090762

	 64          787368	     900784

Which is a pretty constantly near 15%.

Also add a lockdep check such that we detect any mischief before
deadlocking.

002b343669 fs/epoll: loosen irq safety in ep_scan_ready_list()
Patch series "fs/epoll: loosen irq safety when possible".

Both patches replace saving+restoring interrupts when taking the ep->lock
(now the waitqueue lock), with just disabling local irqs.  This shows
immediate performance benefits in patch 1 for an epoll workload running on
Xen.  The main concern we need to have with this sort of changes in epoll
is the ep_poll_callback() which is passed to the wait queue wakeup and is
done very often under irq context, this patch does not touch this call.

Patches have been tested pretty heavily with the customer workload,
microbenchmarks, ltp testcases and two high level workloads that use epoll
under the hood: nginx and libevent benchmarks.

This patch (of 2):

Saving and restoring interrupts in ep_scan_ready_list() is an
overkill as it is never called with interrupts disabled. Loosen
this to simply disabling local irqs such that archs where managing
irqs is expensive or virtual environments. This patch yields
some throughput improvements on a workload that is epoll intensive
running on a single Xen DomU.

1 Job	 7500	-->    8800 enq/s  (+17%)
2 Jobs	14000   -->   15200 enq/s  (+8%)
3 Jobs	20500	-->   22300 enq/s  (+8%)
4 Jobs	25000   -->   28000 enq/s  (+8-12)%

On bare metal:

For a 2-socket 40-core (ht) IvyBridge on a few workloads, unfortunately I
don't have a xen environment and the results for Xen I do have (which
numbers are in patch 1) I don't have the actual workload, so cannot
compare them directly.

1) Different configurations were used for a epoll_wait (pipes io)
   microbench (http://linux-scalability.org/epoll/epoll-test.c) and shows
   around a 7-10% improvement in overall total number of times the
   epoll_wait() loops when using both regular and nested epolls, so very
   raw numbers, but measurable nonetheless.

# threads	vanilla		dirty
     1		1677717		1805587
     2		1660510		1854064
     4		1610184		1805484

     32		1291532		1378463
     64		 752584		 787368

   Note that stddev is pretty small.

2) Another pipe test, which shows no real measurable improvement.

ee8ef0a4b1 epoll: use the waitqueue lock to protect ep->wq
Patch series "waitqueue lockdep annotation", v3.

This series adds a strategic lockdep_assert_held to __wake_up_common to
ensure callers really do hold the wait_queue_head lock when calling the
unlocked wake_up variants.  It turns out epoll did not do this for a
fairly common path (hit all the time by systemd during bootup), so the
second patch fixed this instance as well.

This patch (of 3):

The epoll code currently uses the unlocked waitqueue helpers for managing
ep->wq, but instead of holding the waitqueue lock around these calls, it
uses its own ep->lock spinlock.  Given that the waitqueue is not exposed
to the rest of the kernel this actually works ok at the moment, but
prevents the epoll locking rules from being enforced using lockdep.
Remove ep->lock and use the waitqueue lock to not only reduce the size of
struct eventpoll but also to make sure we can assert locking invariants in
the waitqueue code.

a11e1d432b Revert changes to convert to ->poll_mask() and aio IOCB_CMD_POLL
The poll() changes were not well thought out, and completely
unexplained.  They also caused a huge performance regression, because
"->poll()" was no longer a trivial file operation that just called down
to the underlying file operations, but instead did at least two indirect
calls.

Indirect calls are sadly slow now with the Spectre mitigation, but the
performance problem could at least be largely mitigated by changing the
"->get_poll_head()" operation to just have a per-file-descriptor pointer
to the poll head instead.  That gets rid of one of the new indirections.

But that doesn't fix the new complexity that is completely unwarranted
for the regular case.  The (undocumented) reason for the poll() changes
was some alleged AIO poll race fixing, but we don't make the common case
slower and more complex for some uncommon special case, so this all
really needs way more explanations and most likely a fundamental
redesign.

Using the helper functions do_epoll_create() and do_epoll_wait() allows us
to remove in-kernel calls to the related syscall functions.

This patch is part of a series which removes in-kernel calls to syscalls.
On this basis, the syscall entry path can be streamlined. For details, see

a9a08845e9 vfs: do bulk POLL* -> EPOLL* replacement
This is the mindless scripted replacement of kernel use of POLL*
variables as described by Al, done by this script:

    for V in IN OUT PRI ERR RDNORM RDBAND WRNORM WRBAND HUP RDHUP NVAL MSG; do
        L=`git grep -l -w POLL$V | grep -v '^t' | grep -v /um/ | grep -v '^sa' | grep -v '/poll.h$'|grep -v '^D'`
        for f in $L; do sed -i "-es/^\([^\"]*\)\(\<POLL$V\>\)/\\1E\\2/" $f; done
    done

with de-mangling cleanups yet to come.

NOTE! On almost all architectures, the EPOLL* constants have the same
values as the POLL* constants do.  But they keyword here is "almost".
For various bad reasons they aren't the same, and epoll() doesn't
actually work quite correctly in some cases due to this on Sparc et al.

The next patch from Al will sort out the final differences, and we
should be all done.

two callers that do so don't need to bother - we'd already
masked it with epi->event.events, which

	* is still equal to event->events, since *event is never

37b5e5212a epoll: remove ep_call_nested() from ep_eventpoll_poll()
The use of ep_call_nested() in ep_eventpoll_poll(), which is the .poll
routine for an epoll fd, is used to prevent excessively deep epoll
nesting, and to prevent circular paths.

However, we are already preventing these conditions during
EPOLL_CTL_ADD.  In terms of too deep epoll chains, we do in fact allow
deep nesting of the epoll fds themselves (deeper than EP_MAX_NESTS),
however we don't allow more than EP_MAX_NESTS when an epoll file
descriptor is actually connected to a wakeup source.  Thus, we do not
require the use of ep_call_nested(), since ep_eventpoll_poll(), which is
called via ep_scan_ready_list() only continues nesting if there are
events available.

Since ep_call_nested() is implemented using a global lock, applications
that make use of nested epoll can see large performance improvements
with this change.

57a173bdf5 epoll: avoid calling ep_call_nested() from ep_poll_safewake()
ep_poll_safewake() is used to wakeup potentially nested epoll file
descriptors.  The function uses ep_call_nested() to prevent entering the
same wake up queue more than once, and to prevent excessively deep
wakeup paths (deeper than EP_MAX_NESTS).  However, this is not necessary
since we are already preventing these conditions during EPOLL_CTL_ADD.
This saves extra function calls, and avoids taking a global lock during
the ep_call_nested() calls.

I have, however, left ep_call_nested() for the CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC
case, since ep_call_nested() keeps track of the nesting level, and this
is required by the call to spin_lock_irqsave_nested().  It would be nice
to remove the ep_call_nested() calls for the CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC
case as well, however its not clear how to simply pass the nesting level
through multiple wake_up() levels without more surgery.  In any case, I
don't think CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC is generally used for production.
This patch, also apparently fixes a workload at Google that Salman Qazi
reported by completely removing the poll_safewake_ncalls->lock from
wakeup paths.

2ae928a944 epoll: account epitem and eppoll_entry to kmemcg
A userspace application can directly trigger the allocations from
eventpoll_epi and eventpoll_pwq slabs.  A buggy or malicious application
can consume a significant amount of system memory by triggering such
allocations.  Indeed we have seen in production where a buggy
application was leaking the epoll references and causing a burst of
eventpoll_epi and eventpoll_pwq slab allocations.  This patch opt-in the
charging of eventpoll_epi and eventpoll_pwq slabs.

There is a per-user limit (~4% of total memory if no highmem) on these
caches.  I think it is too generous particularly in the scenario where
jobs of multiple users are running on the system and the administrator
is reducing cost by overcomitting the memory.  This is unaccounted
kernel memory and will not be considered by the oom-killer.  I think by
accounting it to kmemcg, for systems with kmem accounting enabled, we
can provide better isolation between jobs of different users.

...  such that we can avoid the tree walks to get the node with the
smallest key.  Semantically the same, as the previously used rb_first(),
but O(1).  The main overhead is the extra footprint for the cached rb_node
pointer, which should not matter for epoll.
