717a94b5fc sched/core: Remove 'task' parameter and rename tsk_restore_flags() to current_restore_flags()
It is not safe for one thread to modify the ->flags
of another thread as there is no locking that can protect
the update.

So tsk_restore_flags(), which takes a task pointer and modifies
the flags, is an invitation to do the wrong thing.

All current users pass "current" as the task, so no developers have
accepted that invitation.  It would be best to ensure it remains
that way.

So rename tsk_restore_flags() to current_restore_flags() and don't
pass in a task_struct pointer.  Always operate on current->flags.

9ffc66941d This adds a new gcc plugin named "latent_entropy". It is designed to
extract as much possible uncertainty from a running system at boot time as
 possible, hoping to capitalize on any possible variation in CPU operation
 (due to runtime data differences, hardware differences, SMP ordering,
 thermal timing variation, cache behavior, etc).
 
 At the very least, this plugin is a much more comprehensive example for
 how to manipulate kernel code using the gcc plugin internals.

0766f788eb latent_entropy: Mark functions with __latent_entropy
The __latent_entropy gcc attribute can be used only on functions and
variables.  If it is on a function then the plugin will instrument it for
gathering control-flow entropy. If the attribute is on a variable then
the plugin will initialize it with random contents.  The variable must
be an integer, an integer array type or a structure with integer fields.

These specific functions have been selected because they are init
functions (to help gather boot-time entropy), are called at unpredictable
times, or they have variable loops, each of which provide some level of
latent entropy.

4cd13c21b2 softirq: Let ksoftirqd do its job
A while back, Paolo and Hannes sent an RFC patch adding threaded-able
napi poll loop support : (https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/620657/)

The problem seems to be that softirqs are very aggressive and are often
handled by the current process, even if we are under stress and that
ksoftirqd was scheduled, so that innocent threads would have more chance
to make progress.

This patch makes sure that if ksoftirq is running, we let it
perform the softirq work.

Jonathan Corbet summarized the issue in https://lwn.net/Articles/687617/

Tested:

 - NIC receiving traffic handled by CPU 0
 - UDP receiver running on CPU 0, using a single UDP socket.
 - Incoming flood of UDP packets targeting the UDP socket.

Before the patch, the UDP receiver could almost never get CPU cycles and
could only receive ~2,000 packets per second.

After the patch, CPU cycles are split 50/50 between user application and
ksoftirqd/0, and we can effectively read ~900,000 packets per second,
a huge improvement in DOS situation. (Note that more packets are now
dropped by the NIC itself, since the BH handlers get less CPU cycles to
drain RX ring buffer)

Since the load runs in well identified threads context, an admin can
more easily tune process scheduling parameters if needed.

be7635e728 arch, ftrace: for KASAN put hard/soft IRQ entries into separate sections
KASAN needs to know whether the allocation happens in an IRQ handler.
This lets us strip everything below the IRQ entry point to reduce the
number of unique stack traces needed to be stored.

Move the definition of __irq_entry to <linux/interrupt.h> so that the
users don't need to pull in <linux/ftrace.h>.  Also introduce the
__softirq_entry macro which is similar to __irq_entry, but puts the
corresponding functions to the .softirqentry.text section.

f904f58263 sched/debug: Fix preempt_disable_ip recording for preempt_disable()
The preempt_disable() invokes preempt_count_add() which saves the caller
in ->preempt_disable_ip. It uses CALLER_ADDR1 which does not look for
its caller but for the parent of the caller. Which means we get the correct
caller for something like spin_lock() unless the architectures inlines
those invocations. It is always wrong for preempt_disable() or
local_bh_disable().

This patch makes the function get_lock_parent_ip() which tries
CALLER_ADDR0,1,2 if the former is a locking function.
This seems to record the preempt_disable() caller properly for
preempt_disable() itself as well as for get_cpu_var() or
local_bh_disable().

Steven asked for the get_parent_ip() -> get_lock_parent_ip() rename.

60479676eb ksoftirqd: Use new cond_resched_rcu_qs() function
Simplify run_ksoftirqd() by using the new cond_resched_rcu_qs() function
that conditionally reschedules, but unconditionally supplies an RCU
quiescent state.  This commit is separate from the previous commit by
Calvin Owens because Calvin's approach can be backported, while this
commit cannot be.  The reason that this commit cannot be backported is
that cond_resched_rcu_qs() does not always provide the needed quiescent
state in earlier kernels.

28423ad283 ksoftirqd: Enable IRQs and call cond_resched() before poking RCU
While debugging an issue with excessive softirq usage, I encountered the
following note in commit 3e339b5dae ("softirq: Use hotplug thread
infrastructure"):

    [ paulmck: Call rcu_note_context_switch() with interrupts enabled. ]

...but despite this note, the patch still calls RCU with IRQs disabled.

This seemingly innocuous change caused a significant regression in softirq
CPU usage on the sending side of a large TCP transfer (~1 GB/s): when
introducing 0.01% packet loss, the softirq usage would jump to around 25%,
spiking as high as 50%. Before the change, the usage would never exceed 5%.

Moving the call to rcu_note_context_switch() after the cond_sched() call,
as it was originally before the hotplug patch, completely eliminated this
problem.

0f1ba9a2ce softirq/preempt: Add missing current->preempt_disable_ip update
While debugging some "sleeping function called from invalid context" bug I
realized that the debugging message "Preemption disabled at:" pointed to
an incorrect function.

In particular if the last function/action that disabled preemption was
spin_lock_bh() then current->preempt_disable_ip won't be updated.

The reason for this is that __local_bh_disable_ip() will increase
preempt_count manually instead of calling preempt_count_add(), which
would handle the update correctly.

It look like the manual handling was done to work around some lockdep issue.

So add the missing update of current->preempt_disable_ip to
__local_bh_disable_ip() as well.

Pull percpu consistent-ops changes from Tejun Heo:
 "Way back, before the current percpu allocator was implemented, static
  and dynamic percpu memory areas were allocated and handled separately

  inconsistent operations.

  This pull request contains Christoph's patches to clean up the
  duplicate accessor situation.  __get_cpu_var() uses are replaced with
  with this_cpu_ptr() and __this_cpu_ptr() with raw_cpu_ptr().

  Unfortunately, the former sometimes is tricky thanks to C being a bit
  messy with the distinction between lvalues and pointers, which led to
  a rather ugly solution for cpumask_var_t involving the introduction of
  this_cpu_cpumask_var_ptr().

  This converts most of the uses but not all.  Christoph will follow up
  with the remaining conversions in this merge window and hopefully
  remove the obsolete accessors"

62a08ae2a5 genirq: x86: Ensure that dynamic irq allocation does not conflict
On x86 the allocation of irq descriptors may allocate interrupts which
are in the range of the GSI interrupts. That's wrong as those
interrupts are hardwired and we don't have the irq domain translation
like PPC. So one of these interrupts can be hooked up later to one of
the devices which are hard wired to it and the io_apic init code for
that particular interrupt line happily reuses that descriptor with a
completely different configuration so hell breaks lose.

Inside x86 we allocate dynamic interrupts from above nr_gsi_irqs,
except for a few usage sites which have not yet blown up in our face
for whatever reason. But for drivers which need an irq range, like the
GPIO drivers, we have no limit in place and we don't want to expose
such a detail to a driver.

To cure this introduce a function which an architecture can implement
to impose a lower bound on the dynamic interrupt allocations.

Implement it for x86 and set the lower bound to nr_gsi_irqs, which is
the end of the hardwired interrupt space, so all dynamic allocations
happen above.

That not only allows the GPIO driver to work sanely, it also protects
the bogus callsites of create_irq_nr() in hpet, uv, irq_remapping and
htirq code. They need to be cleaned up as well, but that's a separate

5acac1be49 tick: Rename tick_check_idle() to tick_irq_enter()
This makes the code more symetric against the existing tick functions
called on irq exit: tick_irq_exit() and tick_nohz_irq_exit().

These function are also symetric as they mirror each other's action:
we start to account idle time on irq exit and we stop this accounting
on irq entry. Also the tick is stopped on irq exit and timekeeping
catches up with the tickless time elapsed until we reach irq entry.

This rename was suggested by Peter Zijlstra a long while ago but it
got forgotten in the mass.

0bd3a173d7 sched/preempt, locking: Rework local_bh_{dis,en}able()
Currently local_bh_disable() is out-of-line for no apparent reason.
So inline it to save a few cycles on call/return nonsense, the
function body is a single add on x86 (a few loads and store extra on
load/store archs).

Also expose two new local_bh functions:

  __local_bh_{dis,en}able_ip(unsigned long ip, unsigned int cnt);

Which implement the actual local_bh_{dis,en}able() behaviour.

The next patch uses the exposed @cnt argument to optimize bh lock
functions.

With build fixes from Jacob Pan.

9ea4c38006 locking: Optimize lock_bh functions
Currently all _bh_ lock functions do two preempt_count operations:

  local_bh_disable();
  preempt_disable();

and for the unlock:

  preempt_enable_no_resched();
  local_bh_enable();

Since its a waste of perfectly good cycles to modify the same variable
twice when you can do it in one go; use the new
__local_bh_{dis,en}able_ip() functions that allow us to provide a
preempt_count value to add/sub.

So define SOFTIRQ_LOCK_OFFSET as the offset a _bh_ lock needs to
add/sub to be done in one go.

As a bonus it gets rid of the preempt_enable_no_resched() usage.

This reduces a 1000 loops of:

  spin_lock_bh(&bh_lock);
  spin_unlock_bh(&bh_lock);

from 53596 cycles to 51995 cycles. I didn't do enough measurements to
say for absolute sure that the result is significant but the the few
runs I did for each suggest it is so.

5c4853b60c lockdep: Simplify a bit hardirq <-> softirq transitions
Instead of saving the hardirq state on a per CPU variable, which require
an explicit call before the softirq handling and some complication,
just save and restore the hardirq tracing state through functions
return values and parameters.

It simplifies a bit the black magic that works around the fact that
softirqs can be called from hardirqs while hardirqs can nest on softirqs
but those two cases have very different semantics and only the latter
case assume both states.

f1a83e652b lockdep: Correctly annotate hardirq context in irq_exit()
There was a reported deadlock on -rt which lockdep didn't report.

It turns out that in irq_exit() we tell lockdep that the hardirq
context ends and then do all kinds of locking afterwards.

To fix it, move trace_hardirq_exit() to the very end of irq_exit(), this
ensures all locking in tick_irq_exit() and rcu_irq_exit() are properly
recorded as happening from hardirq context.

This however leads to the 'fun' little problem of running softirqs
while in hardirq context. To cure this make the softirq code a little
more complex (in the CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS case).

Due to stack swizzling arch dependent trickery we cannot pass an
argument to __do_softirq() to tell it if it was done from hardirq
context or not; so use a side-band argument.

When we do __do_softirq() from hardirq context, 'atomically' flip to
softirq context and back, so that no locking goes without being in
either hard- or soft-irq context.

I didn't find any new problems in mainline using this patch, but it
did show the -rt problem.

cc1f027454 irq: Optimize softirq stack selection in irq exit
If irq_exit() is called on the arch's specified irq stack,
it should be safe to run softirqs inline under that same
irq stack as it is near empty by the time we call irq_exit().

For example if we use the same stack for both hard and soft irqs here,
the worst case scenario is:
hardirq -> softirq -> hardirq. But then the softirq supersedes the
first hardirq as the stack user since irq_exit() is called in
a mostly empty stack. So the stack merge in this case looks acceptable.

Stack overrun still have a chance to happen if hardirqs have more
opportunities to nest, but then it's another problem to solve.

So lets adapt the irq exit's softirq stack on top of a new Kconfig symbol
that can be defined when irq_exit() runs on the irq stack. That way
we can spare some stack switch on irq processing and all the cache
issues that come along.

5d60d3e7c0 irq: Improve a bit softirq debugging
do_softirq() has a debug check that verifies that it is not nesting
on softirqs processing, nor miscounting the softirq part of the preempt
count.

But making sure that softirqs processing don't nest is actually a more
generic concern that applies to any caller of __do_softirq().

Do take it one step further and generalize that debug check to
any softirq processing.

7d65f4a655 irq: Consolidate do_softirq() arch overriden implementations
All arch overriden implementations of do_softirq() share the following
common code: disable irqs (to avoid races with the pending check),
check if there are softirqs pending, then execute __do_softirq() on
a specific stack.

Consolidate the common parts such that archs only worry about the
stack switch.

ded7975475 irq: Force hardirq exit's softirq processing on its own stack
The commit facd8b80c6
("irq: Sanitize invoke_softirq") converted irq exit
calls of do_softirq() to __do_softirq() on all architectures,
assuming it was only used there for its irq disablement
properties.

But as a side effect, the softirqs processed in the end
of the hardirq are always called on the inline current
stack that is used by irq_exit() instead of the softirq
stack provided by the archs that override do_softirq().

The result is mostly safe if the architecture runs irq_exit()
on a separate irq stack because then softirqs are processed
on that same stack that is near empty at this stage (assuming
hardirq aren't nesting).

Otherwise irq_exit() runs in the task stack and so does the softirq
too. The interrupted call stack can be randomly deep already and
the softirq can dig through it even further. To add insult to the
injury, this softirq can be interrupted by a new hardirq, maximizing
the chances for a stack overrun as reported in powerpc for example:

Since this is a regression, this patch proposes a minimalistic
and low-risk solution by blindly forcing the hardirq exit processing of
softirqs on the softirq stack. This way we should reduce significantly
the opportunities for task stack overflow dug by softirqs.

Longer term solutions may involve extending the hardirq stack coverage to
irq_exit(), etc...

bdb4380658 sched: Extract the basic add/sub preempt_count modifiers
Rewrite the preempt_count macros in order to extract the 3 basic
preempt_count value modifiers:

  __preempt_count_add()
  __preempt_count_sub()

and the new:

  __preempt_count_dec_and_test()

And since we're at it anyway, replace the unconventional
$op_preempt_count names with the more conventional preempt_count_$op.

Since these basic operators are equivalent to the previous _notrace()
variants, do away with the _notrace() versions.

Replace the single preempt_count() 'function' that's an lvalue with
two proper functions:

 preempt_count() - returns the preempt_count value as rvalue
 preempt_count_set() - Allows setting the preempt-count value

Also provide preempt_count_ptr() as a convenience wrapper to implement
all modifying operations.

0db0628d90 kernel: delete __cpuinit usage from all core kernel files
The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications.  For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.

After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out.  Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.

This removes all the uses of the __cpuinit macros from C files in
the core kernel directories (kernel, init, lib, mm, and include)
that don't really have a specific maintainer.
