0b046b217a clocksource: Improve clocksource watchdog reporting
The clocksource watchdog reporting has been less helpful
then desired, as it just printed the delta between
the two clocksources. This prevents any useful analysis
of why the skew occurred.

Thus this patch tries to improve the output when we
mark a clocksource as unstable, printing out the cycle
last and now values for both the current clocksource
and the watchdog clocksource. This will allow us to see
if the result was due to a false positive caused by
a problematic watchdog.

4ca22c2648 timekeeping: Add warnings when overflows or underflows are observed
It was suggested that the underflow/overflow protection
should probably throw some sort of warning out, rather
than just silently fixing the issue.

So this patch adds some warnings here. The flag variables
used are not protected by locks, but since we can't print
from the reading functions, just being able to say we
saw an issue in the update interval is useful enough,
and can be slightly racy without real consequence.

The big complication is that we're only under a read
seqlock, so the data could shift under us during
our calculation to see if there was a problem. This
patch avoids this issue by nesting another seqlock
which allows us to snapshot the just required values
atomically. So we shouldn't see false positives.

I also added some basic rate-limiting here, since
on one build machine w/ skewed TSCs it was fairly
noisy at bootup.

057b87e316 timekeeping: Try to catch clocksource delta underflows
In the case where there is a broken clocksource
where there are multiple actual clocks that
aren't perfectly aligned, we may see small "negative"
deltas when we subtract 'now' from 'cycle_last'.

The values are actually negative with respect to the
clocksource mask value, not necessarily negative
if cast to a s64, but we can check by checking the
delta to see if it is a small (relative to the mask)
negative value (again negative relative to the mask).

If so, we assume we jumped backwards somehow and
instead use zero for our delta.

a558cd021d timekeeping: Add checks to cap clocksource reads to the 'max_cycles' value
When calculating the current delta since the last tick, we
currently have no hard protections to prevent a multiplication
overflow from occuring.

This patch introduces infrastructure to allow a cap that
limits the clocksource read delta value to the 'max_cycles' value,
which is where an overflow would occur.

Since this is in the hotpath, it adds the extra checking under
CONFIG_DEBUG_TIMEKEEPING=y.

There was some concern that capping time like this could cause
problems as we may stop expiring timers, which could go circular
if the timer that triggers time accumulation were mis-scheduled
too far in the future, which would cause time to stop.

However, since the mult overflow would result in a smaller time
value, we would effectively have the same problem there.

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.

362fde0410 clocksource: Simplify the logic around clocksource wrapping safety margins
The clocksource logic has a number of places where we try to
include a safety margin. Most of these are 12% safety margins,
but they are inconsistently applied and sometimes are applied
on top of each other.

Additionally, in the previous patch, we corrected an issue
where we unintentionally in effect created a 50% safety margin,
which these 12.5% margins where then added to.

So to simplify the logic here, this patch removes the various
12.5% margins, and consolidates adding the margin in one place:
clocks_calc_max_nsecs().

Additionally, Linus prefers a 50% safety margin, as it allows
bad clock values to be more easily caught. This should really
have no net effect, due to the corrected issue earlier which
caused greater then 50% margins to be used w/o issue.

6086e346fd clocksource: Simplify the clocks_calc_max_nsecs() logic
The previous clocks_calc_max_nsecs() code had some unecessarily
complex bit logic to find the max interval that could cause
multiplication overflows. Since this is not in the hot
path, just do the divide to make it easier to read.

The previous implementation also had a subtle issue
that it avoided overflows with signed 64-bit values, where
as the intervals are always unsigned. This resulted in
overly conservative intervals, which other safety margins
were then added to, reducing the intended interval length.

9d3e2d02f5 locking/rtmutex: Set state back to running on error
The "usual" path is:

 - rt_mutex_slowlock()
 - set_current_state()
 - task_blocks_on_rt_mutex() (ret 0)
 - __rt_mutex_slowlock()
   - sleep or not but do return with __set_current_state(TASK_RUNNING)
 - back to caller.

In the early error case where task_blocks_on_rt_mutex() return
-EDEADLK we never change the task's state back to RUNNING. I
assume this is intended. Without this change after ww_mutex
using rt_mutex the selftest passes but later I get plenty of:

5516fd7b92 debug: prevent entering debug mode on panic/exception.
On non-developer devices, kgdb prevents the device from rebooting
after a panic.

Incase of panics and exceptions, to allow the device to reboot, prevent
entering debug mode to avoid getting stuck waiting for the user to
interact with debugger.

To avoid entering the debugger on panic/exception without any extra
configuration, panic_timeout is being used which can be set via
/proc/sys/kernel/panic at run time and CONFIG_PANIC_TIMEOUT sets the
default value.

Setting panic_timeout indicates that the user requested machine to
perform unattended reboot after panic. We dont want to get stuck waiting
for the user input incase of panic.

fb6daa7520 kdb: Provide forward search at more prompt
Currently kdb allows the output of comamnds to be filtered using the
| grep feature. This is useful but does not permit the output emitted
shortly after a string match to be examined without wading through the
entire unfiltered output of the command. Such a feature is particularly
useful to navigate function traces because these traces often have a
useful trigger string *before* the point of interest.

This patch reuses the existing filtering logic to introduce a simple
forward search to kdb that can be triggered from the more prompt.

ab08e464a2 kdb: Fix a prompt management bug when using | grep
Currently when the "| grep" feature is used to filter the output of a
command then the prompt is not displayed for the subsequent command.
Likewise any characters typed by the user are also not echoed to the
display. This rather disconcerting problem eventually corrects itself
when the user presses Enter and the kdb_grepping_flag is cleared as
kdb_parse() tries to make sense of whatever they typed.

This patch resolves the problem by moving the clearing of this flag
from the middle of command processing to the beginning.

5454388113 kdb: Remove stack dump when entering kgdb due to NMI
Issuing a stack dump feels ergonomically wrong when entering due to NMI.

Entering due to NMI is normally a reaction to a user request, either the
NMI button on a server or a "magic knock" on a UART. Therefore the
backtrace behaviour on entry due to NMI should be like SysRq-g (no stack
dump) rather than like oops.

Note also that the stack dump does not offer any information that
cannot be trivial retrieved using the 'bt' command.

f7d4ca8bbf kdb: Avoid printing KERN_ levels to consoles
Currently when kdb traps printk messages then the raw log level prefix
(consisting of '\001' followed by a numeral) does not get stripped off
before the message is issued to the various I/O handlers supported by
kdb. This causes annoying visual noise as well as causing problems
grepping for ^. It is also a change of behaviour compared to normal usage
of printk() usage. For example <SysRq>-h ends up with different output to
that of kdb's "sr h".

This patch addresses the problem by stripping log levels from messages
before they are issued to the I/O handlers. printk() which can also
act as an i/o handler in some cases is special cased; if the caller
provided a log level then the prefix will be preserved when sent to
printk().

The addition of non-printable characters to the output of kdb commands is a
regression, albeit and extremely elderly one, introduced by commit
04d2c8c83d ("printk: convert the format for KERN_<LEVEL> to a 2 byte
pattern"). Note also that this patch does *not* restore the original
behaviour from v3.5. Instead it makes printk() from within a kdb command
display the message without any prefix (i.e. like printk() normally does).

2636ed5f8d sched/rt: Avoid obvious configuration fail
Setting the root group's cpu.rt_runtime_us to 0 is a bad thing; it
would disallow the kernel creating RT tasks.

One can of course still set it to 1, which will (likely) still wreck
your kernel, but at least make it clear that setting it to 0 is not
good.

Collect both sanity checks into the one place while we're there.

1fe89e1b6d sched/autogroup: Fix failure to set cpu.rt_runtime_us
Because task_group() uses a cache of autogroup_task_group(), whose
output depends on sched_class, switching classes can generate
problems.

In particular, when started as fair, the cache points to the
autogroup, so when switching to RT the tg_rt_schedulable() test fails
for every cpu.rt_{runtime,period}_us change because now the autogroup
has tasks and no runtime.

Furthermore, going back to the previous semantics of varying
task_group() with sched_class has the down-side that the sched_debug
output varies as well, even though the task really is in the
autogroup.

Therefore add an autogroup exception to tg_has_rt_tasks() -- such that
both (all) task_group() usages in sched/core now have one. And remove
all the remnants of the variable task_group() output.

bd624d75db clockevents: Introduce mode specific callbacks
It is not possible for the clockevents core to know which modes (other than
those with a corresponding feature flag) are supported by a particular
implementation. And drivers are expected to handle transition to all modes
elegantly, as ->set_mode() would be issued for them unconditionally.

Now, adding support for a new mode complicates things a bit if we want to use
the legacy ->set_mode() callback. We need to closely review all clockevents
drivers to see if they would break on addition of a new mode. And after such
reviews, it is found that we have to do non-trivial changes to most of the
drivers [1].

Introduce mode-specific set_mode_*() callbacks, some of which the drivers may or
may not implement. A missing callback would clearly convey the message that the
corresponding mode isn't supported.

A driver may still choose to keep supporting the legacy ->set_mode() callback,
but ->set_mode() wouldn't be supporting any new modes beyond RESUME. If a driver
wants to benefit from using a new mode, it would be required to migrate to
the mode specific callbacks.

The legacy ->set_mode() callback and the newly introduced mode-specific
callbacks are mutually exclusive. Only one of them should be supported by the
driver.

Sanity check is done at the time of registration to distinguish between optional
and required callbacks and to make error recovery and handling simpler. If the
legacy ->set_mode() callback is provided, all mode specific ones would be
ignored by the core but a warning is thrown if they are present.

Call sites calling ->set_mode() directly are also updated to use
__clockevents_set_mode() instead, as ->set_mode() may not be available anymore
for few drivers.

29183a70b0 ntp: Fixup adjtimex freq validation on 32-bit systems
Additional validation of adjtimex freq values to avoid
potential multiplication overflows were added in commit
5e5aeb4367 (time: adjtimex: Validate the ADJ_FREQUENCY values)

Unfortunately the patch used LONG_MAX/MIN instead of
LLONG_MAX/MIN, which was fine on 64-bit systems, but being
much smaller on 32-bit systems caused false positives
resulting in most direct frequency adjustments to fail w/
EINVAL.

ntpd only does direct frequency adjustments at startup, so
the issue was not as easily observed there, but other time
sync applications like ptpd and chrony were more effected by
the bug.

See bugs:

  https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=92481
  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1188074

This patch changes the checks to use LLONG_MAX for
clarity, and additionally the checks are disabled
on 32-bit systems since LLONG_MAX/PPM_SCALE is always
larger then the 32-bit long freq value, so multiplication
overflows aren't possible there.

9cff8adeaa sched: Prevent recursion in io_schedule()
io_schedule() calls blk_flush_plug() which, depending on the
contents of current->plug, can initiate arbitrary blk-io requests.

Note that this contrasts with blk_schedule_flush_plug() which requires
all non-trivial work to be handed off to a separate thread.

This makes it possible for io_schedule() to recurse, and initiating
block requests could possibly call mempool_alloc() which, in times of
memory pressure, uses io_schedule().

Apart from any stack usage issues, io_schedule() will not behave
correctly when called recursively as delayacct_blkio_start() does
not allow for repeated calls.

So:
 - use ->in_iowait to detect recursion.  Set it earlier, and restore
   it to the old value.
 - move the call to "raw_rq" after the call to blk_flush_plug().
   As this is some sort of per-cpu thing, we want some chance that
   we are on the right CPU
 - When io_schedule() is called recurively, use blk_schedule_flush_plug()
   which cannot further recurse.
 - as this makes io_schedule() a lot more complex and as io_schedule()
   must match io_schedule_timeout(), but all the changes in io_schedule_timeout()
   and make io_schedule a simple wrapper for that.

06b1f8083d sched: Fix preempt_schedule_common() triggering tracing recursion
Since the function graph tracer needs to disable preemption, it might
call preempt_schedule() after reenabling  it if something triggered the
need for rescheduling in between.

Therefore we can't trace preempt_schedule() itself because we would
face a function tracing recursion otherwise as the tracer is always
called before PREEMPT_ACTIVE gets set to prevent that recursion. This is
why preempt_schedule() is tagged as "notrace".

But the same issue applies to every function called by preempt_schedule()
before PREEMPT_ACTIVE is actually set. And preempt_schedule_common() is
one such example. Unfortunately we forgot to tag it as notrace as well
and as a result we are encountering tracing recursion since it got
introduced by:

   a18b5d0181 ("sched: Fix missing preemption opportunity")

Let's fix that by applying the appropriate function tag to
preempt_schedule_common().

a79ec89fd8 sched/dl: Prevent enqueue of a sleeping task in dl_task_timer()
A deadline task may be throttled and dequeued at the same time.
This happens, when it becomes throttled in schedule(), which
is called to go to sleep:

current->state = TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE;
schedule()
    deactivate_task()
        dequeue_task_dl()
            update_curr_dl()
                start_dl_timer()
            __dequeue_task_dl()
    prev->on_rq = 0;

Later the timer fires, but the task is still dequeued:

dl_task_timer()
    enqueue_task_dl() /* queues on dl_rq; on_rq remains 0 */

Someone wakes it up:

try_to_wake_up()

    enqueue_dl_entity()
        BUG_ON(on_dl_rq())

Patch fixes this problem, it prevents queueing !on_rq tasks
on dl_rq.

3960c8c0c7 sched: Make dl_task_time() use task_rq_lock()
Kirill reported that a dl task can be throttled and dequeued at the
same time. This happens, when it becomes throttled in schedule(),
which is called to go to sleep:

current->state = TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE;
schedule()
    deactivate_task()
        dequeue_task_dl()
            update_curr_dl()
                start_dl_timer()
            __dequeue_task_dl()
    prev->on_rq = 0;

This invalidates the assumption from commit 0f397f2c90 ("sched/dl:
Fix race in dl_task_timer()"):

  "The only reason we don't strictly need ->pi_lock now is because
   we're guaranteed to have p->state == TASK_RUNNING here and are
   thus free of ttwu races".

And therefore we have to use the full task_rq_lock() here.

This further amends the fact that we forgot to update the rq lock loop
for TASK_ON_RQ_MIGRATE, from commit cca26e8009 ("sched: Teach
scheduler to understand TASK_ON_RQ_MIGRATING state").

  This is the first pile; more to follow in a few.  In this one are
  several misc commits from early in the cycle (before I went for
  separate branches), plus the rework of mntput/dput ordering on umount,
  switching to use of fs_pin instead of convoluted games in
  namespace_unlock()"

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs:
  switch the IO-triggering parts of umount to fs_pin
  new fs_pin killing logics
  allow attaching fs_pin to a group not associated with some superblock
  get rid of the second argument of acct_kill()
  take count and rcu_head out of fs_pin
  dcache: let the dentry count go down to zero without taking d_lock
  pull bumping refcount into ->kill()
  kill pin_put()
  mode_t whack-a-mole: chelsio
  file->f_path.dentry is pinned down for as long as the file is open...
  get rid of lustre_dump_dentry()
  gut proc_register() a bit
  kill d_validate()
  ncpfs: get rid of d_validate() nonsense
  selinuxfs: don't open-code d_genocide()

580c57f107 seccomp: cap SECCOMP_RET_ERRNO data to MAX_ERRNO
The value resulting from the SECCOMP_RET_DATA mask could exceed MAX_ERRNO
when setting errno during a SECCOMP_RET_ERRNO filter action.  This makes
sure we have a reliable value being set, so that an invalid errno will not
be ignored by userspace.

518a0c7163 kexec: simplify conditional
Simplify the code around one of the conditionals in the kexec_load syscall
routine.

The original code was confusing with a redundant check on KEXEC_ON_CRASH
and comments outside of the conditional block.  This change switches the
order of the conditional check, and cleans up the comments for the
conditional.  There is no functional change to the code.

73d7e3eac0 kexec: remove never used member destination in kimage
struct kimage has a member destination which is used to store the real
destination address of each page when load segment from user space buffer
to kernel.  But we never retrieve the value stored in kimage->destination,
so this member variable in kimage and its assignment operation are
redundent code.

I guess for_each_kimage_entry just does the work that kimage->destination
is expected to do.

So in this patch just make a cleanup to remove it.
