2017-04-04sched/rtmutex/deadline: Fix a PI crash for deadline tasksXunlei Pang
A crash happened while I was playing with deadline PI rtmutex. BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000018 IP: [<ffffffff810eeb8f>] rt_mutex_get_top_task+0x1f/0x30 PGD 232a75067 PUD 230947067 PMD 0 Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP CPU: 1 PID: 10994 Comm: a.out Not tainted Call Trace: [<ffffffff810b658c>] enqueue_task+0x2c/0x80 [<ffffffff810ba763>] activate_task+0x23/0x30 [<ffffffff810d0ab5>] pull_dl_task+0x1d5/0x260 [<ffffffff810d0be6>] pre_schedule_dl+0x16/0x20 [<ffffffff8164e783>] __schedule+0xd3/0x900 [<ffffffff8164efd9>] schedule+0x29/0x70 [<ffffffff8165035b>] __rt_mutex_slowlock+0x4b/0xc0 [<ffffffff81650501>] rt_mutex_slowlock+0xd1/0x190 [<ffffffff810eeb33>] rt_mutex_timed_lock+0x53/0x60 [<ffffffff810ecbfc>] futex_lock_pi.isra.18+0x28c/0x390 [<ffffffff810ed8b0>] do_futex+0x190/0x5b0 [<ffffffff810edd50>] SyS_futex+0x80/0x180 This is because rt_mutex_enqueue_pi() and rt_mutex_dequeue_pi() are only protected by pi_lock when operating pi waiters, while rt_mutex_get_top_task(), will access them with rq lock held but not holding pi_lock. In order to tackle it, we introduce new "pi_top_task" pointer cached in task_struct, and add new rt_mutex_update_top_task() to update its value, it can be called by rt_mutex_setprio() which held both owner's pi_lock and rq lock. Thus "pi_top_task" can be safely accessed by enqueue_task_dl() under rq lock.

2017-03-28LSM: Revive security_task_alloc() hook and per "struct task_struct" security ↵Tetsuo Handa
blob. We switched from "struct task_struct"->security to "struct cred"->security in Linux 2.6.29. But not all LSM modules were happy with that change. TOMOYO LSM module is an example which want to use per "struct task_struct" security blob, for TOMOYO's security context is defined based on "struct task_struct" rather than "struct cred". AppArmor LSM module is another example which want to use it, for AppArmor is currently abusing the cred a little bit to store the change_hat and setexeccon info. Although security_task_free() hook was revived in Linux 3.4 because Yama LSM module wanted to release per "struct task_struct" security blob, security_task_alloc() hook and "struct task_struct"->security field were not revived. Nowadays, we are getting proposals of lightweight LSM modules which want to use per "struct task_struct" security blob. We are already allowing multiple concurrent LSM modules (up to one fully armored module which uses "struct cred"->security field or exclusive hooks like security_xfrm_state_pol_flow_match(), plus unlimited number of lightweight modules which do not use "struct cred"->security nor exclusive hooks) as long as they are built into the kernel. But this patch does not implement variable length "struct task_struct"->security field which will become needed when multiple LSM modules want to use "struct task_struct"-> security field. Although it won't be difficult to implement variable length "struct task_struct"->security field, let's think about it after we merged this patch.

2017-03-17cgroup, kthread: close race window where new kthreads can be migrated to ↵Tejun Heo
non-root cgroups Creation of a kthread goes through a couple interlocked stages between the kthread itself and its creator. Once the new kthread starts running, it initializes itself and wakes up the creator. The creator then can further configure the kthread and then let it start doing its job by waking it up. In this configuration-by-creator stage, the creator is the only one that can wake it up but the kthread is visible to userland. When altering the kthread's attributes from userland is allowed, this is fine; however, for cases where CPU affinity is critical, kthread_bind() is used to first disable affinity changes from userland and then set the affinity. This also prevents the kthread from being migrated into non-root cgroups as that can affect the CPU affinity and many other things. Unfortunately, the cgroup side of protection is racy. While the PF_NO_SETAFFINITY flag prevents further migrations, userland can win the race before the creator sets the flag with kthread_bind() and put the kthread in a non-root cgroup, which can lead to all sorts of problems including incorrect CPU affinity and starvation. This bug got triggered by userland which periodically tries to migrate all processes in the root cpuset cgroup to a non-root one. Per-cpu workqueue workers got caught while being created and ended up with incorrected CPU affinity breaking concurrency management and sometimes stalling workqueue execution. This patch adds task->no_cgroup_migration which disallows the task to be migrated by userland. kthreadd starts with the flag set making every child kthread start in the root cgroup with migration disallowed. The flag is cleared after the kthread finishes initialization by which time PF_NO_SETAFFINITY is set if the kthread should stay in the root cgroup. It'd be better to wait for the initialization instead of failing but I couldn't think of a way of implementing that without adding either a new PF flag, or sleeping and retrying from waiting side. Even if userland depends on changing cgroup membership of a kthread, it either has to be synchronized with kthread_create() or periodically repeat, so it's unlikely that this would break anything. v2: Switch to a simpler implementation using a new task_struct bit field suggested by Oleg.

2017-03-09staging, android: remove lowmemory killer from the treeMichal Hocko
Lowmemory killer is sitting in the staging tree since 2008 without any serious interest for fixing issues brought up by the MM folks. The main objection is that the implementation is basically broken by design: - it hooks into slab shrinker API which is not suitable for this purpose. lowmem_count implementation just shows this nicely. There is no scaling based on the memory pressure and no feedback to the generic shrinker infrastructure. Moreover lowmem_scan is called way too often for the heavy work it performs. - it is not reclaim context aware - no NUMA and/or memcg awareness. As the code stands right now it just adds a maintenance overhead when core MM changes have to update lowmemorykiller.c as well. It also seems that the alternative LMK implementation will be solely in the userspace so this code has no perspective it seems. The staging tree is supposed to be for a code which needs to be put in shape before it can be merged which is not the case here obviously.

2017-03-08livepatch: change to a per-task consistency modelJosh Poimboeuf
Change livepatch to use a basic per-task consistency model. This is the foundation which will eventually enable us to patch those ~10% of security patches which change function or data semantics. This is the biggest remaining piece needed to make livepatch more generally useful. This code stems from the design proposal made by Vojtech [1] in November 2014. It's a hybrid of kGraft and kpatch: it uses kGraft's per-task consistency and syscall barrier switching combined with kpatch's stack trace switching. There are also a number of fallback options which make it quite flexible. Patches are applied on a per-task basis, when the task is deemed safe to switch over. When a patch is enabled, livepatch enters into a transition state where tasks are converging to the patched state. Usually this transition state can complete in a few seconds. The same sequence occurs when a patch is disabled, except the tasks converge from the patched state to the unpatched state. An interrupt handler inherits the patched state of the task it interrupts. The same is true for forked tasks: the child inherits the patched state of the parent. Livepatch uses several complementary approaches to determine when it's safe to patch tasks: 1. The first and most effective approach is stack checking of sleeping tasks. If no affected functions are on the stack of a given task, the task is patched. In most cases this will patch most or all of the tasks on the first try. Otherwise it'll keep trying periodically. This option is only available if the architecture has reliable stacks (HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE). 2. The second approach, if needed, is kernel exit switching. A task is switched when it returns to user space from a system call, a user space IRQ, or a signal. It's useful in the following cases: a) Patching I/O-bound user tasks which are sleeping on an affected function. In this case you have to send SIGSTOP and SIGCONT to force it to exit the kernel and be patched. b) Patching CPU-bound user tasks. If the task is highly CPU-bound then it will get patched the next time it gets interrupted by an IRQ. c) In the future it could be useful for applying patches for architectures which don't yet have HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE. In this case you would have to signal most of the tasks on the system. However this isn't supported yet because there's currently no way to patch kthreads without HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE. 3. For idle "swapper" tasks, since they don't ever exit the kernel, they instead have a klp_update_patch_state() call in the idle loop which allows them to be patched before the CPU enters the idle state. (Note there's not yet such an approach for kthreads.) All the above approaches may be skipped by setting the 'immediate' flag in the 'klp_patch' struct, which will disable per-task consistency and patch all tasks immediately. This can be useful if the patch doesn't change any function or data semantics. Note that, even with this flag set, it's possible that some tasks may still be running with an old version of the function, until that function returns. There's also an 'immediate' flag in the 'klp_func' struct which allows you to specify that certain functions in the patch can be applied without per-task consistency. This might be useful if you want to patch a common function like schedule(), and the function change doesn't need consistency but the rest of the patch does. For architectures which don't have HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE, the user must set patch->immediate which causes all tasks to be patched immediately. This option should be used with care, only when the patch doesn't change any function or data semantics. In the future, architectures which don't have HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE may be allowed to use per-task consistency if we can come up with another way to patch kthreads. The /sys/kernel/livepatch/<patch>/transition file shows whether a patch is in transition. Only a single patch (the topmost patch on the stack) can be in transition at a given time. A patch can remain in transition indefinitely, if any of the tasks are stuck in the initial patch state. A transition can be reversed and effectively canceled by writing the opposite value to the /sys/kernel/livepatch/<patch>/enabled file while the transition is in progress. Then all the tasks will attempt to converge back to the original patch state.

2017-03-03sched/headers: Move 'init_task' and 'init_thread_union' from <linux/sched.h> ↵Ingo Molnar
to <linux/sched/task.h> 'init_task' is really not part of core scheduler APIs but part of the fork() interface between the scheduler and process management. So move the declarations.

2017-03-03sched/headers: Remove the <linux/mm_types.h> dependency from <linux/sched.h>Ingo Molnar
Use the freshly introduced, reduced size <linux/mm_types_task.h> header instead.

2017-03-03sched/headers: Move the 'root_task_group' declaration to ↵Ingo Molnar
<linux/sched/autogroup.h> Also remove the duplicate declaration from <linux/init_task.h>. ( That declaration was originally duplicated for dependency hell reasons, but there's no problem including the much smaller <linux/sched/autogroup.h> header now, to pick up the right prototype. ) Acked-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
2017-03-03sched/headers: Move task-stack related APIs from <linux/sched.h> to ↵Ingo Molnar
<linux/sched/task_stack.h> Split out the task->stack related functionality, which is not really part of the core scheduler APIs. Only keep task_thread_info() because it's used by sched.h. Update the code that uses those facilities.

2017-03-03sched/headers: Move the PREEMPT_COUNT defines from <linux/sched.h> to ↵Ingo Molnar
<linux/preempt.h> These defines are not really part of the scheduler's driver API, but are related to the preempt count - so move them to <linux/preempt.h>.

2017-03-03sched/core: Move, sort and clean up <linux/sched.h> structure predeclarationsIngo Molnar
Most of the structure predeclarations were at the head of sched.h, but not all of them - there were a number of lines spread around sched.h, in random places. Move them to the head, and also sort them alphabetically. Remove unused entries.

2017-03-03sched/headers: Move task lifetime APIs from <linux/sched.h> to ↵Ingo Molnar
<linux/sched/task.h> There's a fair amount of task lifetime management (a.k.a fork()/exit()) related APIs in <linux/sched.h>, but only a small fraction of the users of the generic sched.h header make use of them. Move these functions to the <linux/sched/task.h> header.

2017-03-03sched/headers: Move <asm/current.h> include from the middle of ↵Ingo Molnar
<linux/sched.h> to the header portion Linux-0.01 already defined 'current' in the middle of sched.h, so this is an ancient historical precedent - but still in a modern kernel it looks a bit weird that we have: #include <asm/current.h> in the middle of the header. Move it further up. If this was done for some obscure dependency reasons then we'll trigger and document it.

<linux/sched/debug.h> Collect the various scheduler and task state debugging APIs scattered around <linux/sched.h> into the new <linux/sched/debug.h> header.

There's a number of NOHZ/dyntics related functionality in <linux/sched.h>, but only a handful of timer files are making use of them. Move them into their own header. This better documents these APIs and unclutters <linux/sched.h>.
