Pull timer updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Time and clocksource/clockevent related updates:
Core changes:
- Infrastructure to support per CPU "broadcast" devices for per CPU
clockevent devices which stop in deep idle states. This allows us
to utilize the more efficient architected timer on certain ARM SoCs
for normal operation instead of permanentely using the slow to
access SoC specific clockevent device.
- Print the name of the broadcast/wakeup device in /proc/timer_list
- Make the clocksource watchdog more robust against delays between
reading the current active clocksource and the watchdog
clocksource. Such delays can be caused by NMIs, SMIs and vCPU
preemption.
Handle this by reading the watchdog clocksource twice, i.e. before
and after reading the current active clocksource. In case that the
two watchdog reads shows an excessive time delta, the read sequence
is repeated up to 3 times.
- Improve the debug output and add a test module for the watchdog
mechanism.
- Reimplementation of the venerable time64_to_tm() function with a
faster and significantly smaller version. Straight from the source,
i.e. the author of the related research paper contributed this!

- No new drivers, not even new device tree bindings!

Pull irq updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Updates for the interrupt subsystem:
Core changes:
- Cleanup and simplification of common code to invoke the low level
interrupt flow handlers when this invocation requires irqdomain
resolution. Add the necessary core infrastructure.
- Provide a proper interface for modular PMU drivers to set the

- Add a request flag which allows to exclude interrupts from spurious
interrupt detection. Useful especially for IPI handlers which
always return IRQ_HANDLED which turns the spurious interrupt
detection into a pointless waste of CPU cycles.
Driver changes:
- Bulk convert interrupt chip drivers to the new irqdomain low level

- Add device tree bindings for the Renesas R-Car M3-W+ SoC
- Enable modular build of the Qualcomm PDC driver

This introduces a new sysctl vm.percpu_pagelist_high_fraction. It is
similar to the old vm.percpu_pagelist_fraction. The old sysctl increased
both pcp->batch and pcp->high with the higher pcp->high potentially
reducing zone->lock contention. However, the higher pcp->batch value also
potentially increased allocation latency while the PCP was refilled. This
sysctl only adjusts pcp->high so that zone->lock contention is potentially
reduced but allocation latency during a PCP refill remains the same.

# sysctl vm.percpu_pagelist_high_fraction=8

Patch series "Calculate pcp->high based on zone sizes and active CPUs", v2.
The per-cpu page allocator (PCP) is meant to reduce contention on the zone
lock but the sizing of batch and high is archaic and neither takes the
zone size into account or the number of CPUs local to a zone. With larger
zones and more CPUs per node, the contention is getting worse.
Furthermore, the fact that vm.percpu_pagelist_fraction adjusts both batch
and high values means that the sysctl can reduce zone lock contention but
also increase allocation latencies.
This series disassociates pcp->high from pcp->batch and then scales
pcp->high based on the size of the local zone with limited impact to
reclaim and accounting for active CPUs but leaves pcp->batch static. It
also adapts the number of pages that can be on the pcp list based on
recent freeing patterns.
The motivation is partially to adjust to larger memory sizes but is also
driven by the fact that large batches of page freeing via release_pages()
often shows zone contention as a major part of the problem. Another is a
bug report based on an older kernel where a multi-terabyte process can
takes several minutes to exit. A workaround was to use
vm.percpu_pagelist_fraction to increase the pcp->high value but testing
indicated that a production workload could not use the same values because
of an increase in allocation latencies. Unfortunately, I cannot reproduce
this test case myself as the multi-terabyte machines are in active use but
it should alleviate the problem.
The series aims to address both and partially acts as a pre-requisite.
pcp only works with order-0 which is useless for SLUB (when using high
orders) and THP (unconditionally). To store high-order pages on PCP, the
pcp->high values need to be increased first.
This patch (of 6):
The vm.percpu_pagelist_fraction is used to increase the batch and high
limits for the per-cpu page allocator (PCP). The intent behind the sysctl
is to reduce zone lock acquisition when allocating/freeing pages but it
has a problem. While it can decrease contention, it can also increase
latency on the allocation side due to unreasonably large batch sizes.
This leads to games where an administrator adjusts
percpu_pagelist_fraction on the fly to work around contention and
allocation latency problems.
This series aims to alleviate the problems with zone lock contention while
avoiding the allocation-side latency problems. For the purposes of
review, it's easier to remove this sysctl now and reintroduce a similar
sysctl later in the series that deals only with pcp->high.

The KUNIT_EXPECT_KASAN_FAIL() macro currently uses KUNIT_EXPECT_EQ() to
compare fail_data.report_expected and fail_data.report_found. This always
gave a somewhat useless error message on failure, but the addition of
extra compile-time checking with READ_ONCE() has caused it to get much
longer, and be truncated before anything useful is displayed.
Instead, just check fail_data.report_found by hand (we've just set
report_expected to 'true'), and print a better failure message with
KUNIT_FAIL(). Because of this, report_expected is no longer used
anywhere, and can be removed.
Beforehand, a failure in:
KUNIT_EXPECT_KASAN_FAIL(test, ((volatile char *)area)[3100]);
would have looked like:
[22:00:34] [FAILED] vmalloc_oob
[22:00:34] # vmalloc_oob: EXPECTATION FAILED at lib/test_kasan.c:991
[22:00:34] Expected ({ do { extern void __compiletime_assert_705(void) __attribute__((__error__("Unsupported access size for {READ,WRITE}_ONCE()."))); if (!((sizeof(fail_data.report_expected) == sizeof(char) || sizeof(fail_data.repp
[22:00:34] not ok 45 - vmalloc_oob
With this change, it instead looks like:
[22:04:04] [FAILED] vmalloc_oob
[22:04:04] # vmalloc_oob: EXPECTATION FAILED at lib/test_kasan.c:993
[22:04:04] KASAN failure expected in "((volatile char *)area)[3100]", but none occurred
[22:04:04] not ok 45 - vmalloc_oob
Also update the example failure in the documentation to reflect this.

The macro PAGE_REPORTING_MIN_ORDER is defined as the page reporting
threshold. It can't be adjusted at runtime.
This introduces a variable (@page_reporting_order) to replace the marcro
(PAGE_REPORTING_MIN_ORDER). MAX_ORDER is assigned to it initially,
meaning the page reporting is disabled. It will be specified by driver if
valid one is provided. Otherwise, it will fall back to @pageblock_order.
It's also exported so that the page reporting order can be adjusted at
runtime.

"There's a reasonable amount here and the juicy details are all below.
It's worth noting that the MTE/KASAN changes strayed outside of our
usual directories due to core mm changes and some associated changes
to some other architectures; Andrew asked for us to carry these [1]
rather that take them via the -mm tree.
Summary:
- Optimise SVE switching for CPUs with 128-bit implementations.
- Fix output format from SVE selftest.
- Add support for versions v1.2 and 1.3 of the SMC calling
convention.
- Allow Pointer Authentication to be configured independently for
kernel and userspace.
- PMU driver cleanups for managing IRQ affinity and exposing event
attributes via sysfs.
- KASAN optimisations for both hardware tagging (MTE) and out-of-line
software tagging implementations.
- Relax frame record alignment requirements to facilitate 8-byte
alignment with KASAN and Clang.
- Cleanup of page-table definitions and removal of unused memory
types.
- Reduction of ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN back to 64 bytes.
- Refactoring of our instruction decoding routines and addition of
some missing encodings.
- Move entry code moved into C and hardened against harmful compiler
instrumentation.
- Update booting requirements for the FEAT_HCX feature, added to v8.7
of the architecture.
- Fix resume from idle when pNMI is being used.
- Additional CPU sanity checks for MTE and preparatory changes for
systems where not all of the CPUs support 32-bit EL0.
- Update our kernel string routines to the latest Cortex Strings
implementation.
- Big cleanup of our cache maintenance routines, which were
confusingly named and inconsistent in their implementations.
- Tweak linker flags so that GDB can understand vmlinux when using
RELR relocations.
- Boot path cleanups to enable early initialisation of per-cpu
operations needed by KCSAN.
- Non-critical fixes and miscellaneous cleanup"

Alban Crequy reported a race condition userspace faces when we want to
add some fds and make the syscall return them[1] using seccomp notify.
The problem is that currently two different ioctl() calls are needed by
the process handling the syscalls (agent) for another userspace process
(target): SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_ADDFD to allocate the fd and
SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_SEND to return that value. Therefore, it is possible
for the agent to do the first ioctl to add a file descriptor but the
target is interrupted (EINTR) before the agent does the second ioctl()
call.
This patch adds a flag to the ADDFD ioctl() so it adds the fd and
returns that value atomically to the target program, as suggested by
Kees Cook[2]. This is done by simply allowing
seccomp_do_user_notification() to add the fd and return it in this case.
Therefore, in this case the target wakes up from the wait in
seccomp_do_user_notification() either to interrupt the syscall or to add
the fd and return it.
This "allocate an fd and return" functionality is useful for syscalls
that return a file descriptor only, like connect(2). Other syscalls that
return a file descriptor but not as return value (or return more than
one fd), like socketpair(), pipe(), recvmsg with SCM_RIGHTs, will not
work with this flag.
This effectively combines SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_ADDFD and
SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_SEND into an atomic opteration. The notification's
return value, nor error can be set by the user. Upon successful invocation
of the SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_ADDFD ioctl with the SECCOMP_ADDFD_FLAG_SEND
flag, the notifying process's errno will be 0, and the return value will
be the file descriptor number that was installed.

Pull scheduler udpates from Ingo Molnar:
- Changes to core scheduling facilities:
- Add "Core Scheduling" via CONFIG_SCHED_CORE=y, which enables
coordinated scheduling across SMT siblings. This is a much
requested feature for cloud computing platforms, to allow the
flexible utilization of SMT siblings, without exposing untrusted
domains to information leaks & side channels, plus to ensure more
deterministic computing performance on SMT systems used by
heterogenous workloads.
There are new prctls to set core scheduling groups, which allows
more flexible management of workloads that can share siblings.
- Fix task->state access anti-patterns that may result in missed
wakeups and rename it to ->__state in the process to catch new
abuses.
- Load-balancing changes:
- Tweak newidle_balance for fair-sched, to improve 'memcache'-like
workloads.
- "Age" (decay) average idle time, to better track & improve
workloads such as 'tbench'.
- Fix & improve energy-aware (EAS) balancing logic & metrics.
- Fix & improve the uclamp metrics.
- Fix task migration (taskset) corner case on !CONFIG_CPUSET.
- Fix RT and deadline utilization tracking across policy changes
- Introduce a "burstable" CFS controller via cgroups, which allows
bursty CPU-bound workloads to borrow a bit against their future
quota to improve overall latencies & batching. Can be tweaked via
/sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/<X>/cpu.cfs_burst_us.
- Rework assymetric topology/capacity detection & handling.
- Scheduler statistics & tooling:
- Disable delayacct by default, but add a sysctl to enable it at
runtime if tooling needs it. Use static keys and other
optimizations to make it more palatable.
- Use sched_clock() in delayacct, instead of ktime_get_ns().
- Misc cleanups and fixes.

Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
- Core locking & atomics:
- Convert all architectures to ARCH_ATOMIC: move every architecture
to ARCH_ATOMIC, then get rid of ARCH_ATOMIC and all the
transitory facilities and #ifdefs.
Much reduction in complexity from that series:
63 files changed, 756 insertions(+), 4094 deletions(-)
- Self-test enhancements
- Futexes:
- Add the new FUTEX_LOCK_PI2 ABI, which is a variant that doesn't
set FLAGS_CLOCKRT (.e. uses CLOCK_MONOTONIC).
[ The temptation to repurpose FUTEX_LOCK_PI's implicit setting of
FLAGS_CLOCKRT & invert the flag's meaning to avoid having to
introduce a new variant was resisted successfully. ]
- Enhance futex self-tests
- Lockdep:
- Fix dependency path printouts
- Optimize trace saving
- Broaden & fix wait-context checks
- Misc cleanups and fixes.

Add a fallback mechanism to the in-kernel instruction emulator that
allows userspace the opportunity to process an instruction the emulator
was unable to. When the in-kernel instruction emulator fails to process
an instruction it will either inject a #UD into the guest or exit to
userspace with exit reason KVM_INTERNAL_ERROR. This is because it does
not know how to proceed in an appropriate manner. This feature lets
userspace get involved to see if it can figure out a better path
forward.

Using "efer_nx" also makes it clear that the role bit reflects EFER.NX,

Originally, __kvm_sync_page used to check the cr4_pae bit in the role
to avoid zapping 4-byte kvm_mmu_pages when guest page size are 8-byte
or the other way round. However, in commit 47c42e6b4192 ("KVM: x86: fix
handling of role.cr4_pae and rename it to 'gpte_size'", 2019-03-28) it
was observed that this did not work for nested EPT, where the page table
size would be 8 bytes even if CR4.PAE=0. (Note that the check still
has to be done for nested *NPT*, so it is not possible to use tdp_enabled
or similar).
Therefore, a hack was introduced to identify nested EPT shadow pages
and unconditionally call __kvm_sync_page() on them. However, it is
possible to do without the hack to identify nested EPT shadow pages:
if EPT is active, there will be no shadow pages in non-EPT format,
and all of them will have gpte_is_8_bytes set to true; we can just
check the MMU role directly, and the test will always be true.
Even for non-EPT shadow MMUs, this test should really always be true
now that __kvm_sync_page() is called if and only if the role is an
exact match (kvm_mmu_get_page()) or is part of the current MMU context
(kvm_mmu_sync_roots()). A future commit will convert the likely-pointless
check into a meaningful WARN to enforce that the mmu_roles of the current
context and the shadow page are compatible.

Warn userspace that KVM_SET_CPUID{,2} after KVM_RUN "may" cause guest
instability. Initialize last_vmentry_cpu to -1 and use it to detect if
the vCPU has been run at least once when its CPUID model is changed.
KVM does not correctly handle changes to paging related settings in the
guest's vCPU model after KVM_RUN, e.g. MAXPHYADDR, GBPAGES, etc... KVM
could theoretically zap all shadow pages, but actually making that happen
is a mess due to lock inversion (vcpu->mutex is held). And even then,
updating paging settings on the fly would only work if all vCPUs are
stopped, updated in concert with identical settings, then restarted.
To support running vCPUs with different vCPU models (that affect paging),
KVM would need to track all relevant information in kvm_mmu_page_role.
Note, that's the _page_ role, not the full mmu_role. Updating mmu_role
isn't sufficient as a vCPU can reuse a shadow page translation that was
created by a vCPU with different settings and thus completely skip the
reserved bit checks (that are tied to CPUID).
Tracking CPUID state in kvm_mmu_page_role is _extremely_ undesirable as
it would require doubling gfn_track from a u16 to a u32, i.e. would
increase KVM's memory footprint by 2 bytes for every 4kb of guest memory.
E.g. MAXPHYADDR (6 bits), GBPAGES, AMD vs. INTEL = 1 bit, and SEV C-BIT
would all need to be tracked.
In practice, there is no remotely sane use case for changing any paging
related CPUID entries on the fly, so just sweep it under the rug (after
yelling at userspace).

This new API provides a file descriptor for every VM and VCPU to read
KVM statistics data in binary format.
It is meant to provide a lightweight, flexible, scalable and efficient
lock-free solution for user space telemetry applications to pull the
statistics data periodically for large scale systems. The pulling
frequency could be as high as a few times per second.
The statistics descriptors are defined by KVM in kernel and can be
by userspace to discover VM/VCPU statistics during the one-time setup
stage.
The statistics data itself could be read out by userspace telemetry
periodically without any extra parsing or setup effort.
There are a few existed interface protocols and definitions, but no
one can fulfil all the requirements this interface implemented as
below:
1. During high frequency periodic stats reading, there should be no
extra efforts except the stats data read itself.
2. Support stats annotation, like type (cumulative, instantaneous,
peak, histogram, etc) and unit (counter, time, size, cycles, etc).
3. The stats data reading should be free of lock/synchronization. We
don't care about the consistency between all the stats data. All
stats data can not be read out at exactly the same time. We really
care about the change or trend of the stats data. The lock-free
solution is not just for efficiency and scalability, also for the
stats data accuracy and usability. For example, in the situation
that all the stats data readings are protected by a global lock,
if one VCPU died somehow with that lock held, then all stats data
reading would be blocked, then we have no way from stats data that
which VCPU has died.
4. The stats data reading workload can be handed over to other
unprivileged process.

When the clocksource watchdog marks a clock as unstable, this might
be due to that clock being unstable or it might be due to delays that
happen to occur between the reads of the two clocks. It would be good
to have a way of testing the clocksource watchdog's ability to
distinguish between these two causes of clock skew and instability.
Therefore, provide a new clocksource-wdtest module selected by a new
TEST_CLOCKSOURCE_WATCHDOG Kconfig option. This module has a single module
parameter named "holdoff" that provides the number of seconds of delay
before testing should start, which defaults to zero when built as a module
and to 10 seconds when built directly into the kernel. Very large systems
that boot slowly may need to increase the value of this module parameter.
This module uses hand-crafted clocksource structures to do its testing,
thus avoiding messing up timing for the rest of the kernel and for user
applications. This module first verifies that the ->uncertainty_margin
field of the clocksource structures are set sanely. It then tests the
delay-detection capability of the clocksource watchdog, increasing the
number of consecutive delays injected, first provoking console messages
complaining about the delays and finally forcing a clock-skew event.
Unexpected test results cause at least one WARN_ON_ONCE() console splat.
If there are no splats, the test has passed. Finally, it fuzzes the
value returned from a clocksource to test the clocksource watchdog's
ability to detect time skew.
This module checks the state of its clocksource after each test, and
uses WARN_ON_ONCE() to emit a console splat if there are any failures.
This should enable all types of test frameworks to detect any such
failures.
This facility is intended for diagnostic use only, and should be avoided
on production systems.
