Add a special-case when waiting on a pid (via waitpid, waitid, wait4, etc)
to avoid doing an O(n) scan of children and tracees, and instead do an
O(1) lookup. This improves performance when waiting on a pid from a
thread group with many children and/or tracees.
Time to fork and then call waitpid on the child, from a task that already
has N children [1]:
N | Before | After
-----|---------|------
1 | 74 us | 74 us
20 | 72 us | 75 us
100 | 83 us | 77 us
500 | 99 us | 74 us
1000 | 179 us | 75 us
5000 | 804 us | 79 us
8000 | 1268 us | 78 us

This can make a substantial performance improvement for applications with
a thread that has many children or tracees and frequently needs to wait on
them. Tools that use ptrace to intercept syscalls for a large number of
processes are likely to fall into this category. In particular this patch
was developed while building a ptrace-based second generation of the
Shadow emulator [2], for which it allows us to avoid quadratic scaling
(without having to use a workaround that introduces a ~40% performance
penalty) [3]. Other examples of tools that fall into this category which
this patch may help include User Mode Linux [4] and DetTrace [5].

The idea for this originates from the real time tree to make signal
delivery for realtime applications more efficient. In quite some of these
application scenarios a control tasks signals workers to start their
computations. There is usually only one signal per worker on flight. This
works nicely as long as the kmem cache allocations do not hit the slow path
and cause latencies.
To cure this an optimistic caching was introduced (limited to RT tasks)
which allows a task to cache a single sigqueue in a pointer in task_struct
instead of handing it back to the kmem cache after consuming a signal. When
the next signal is sent to the task then the cached sigqueue is used
instead of allocating a new one. This solved the problem for this set of
application scenarios nicely.
The task cache is not preallocated so the first signal sent to a task goes
always to the cache allocator. The cached sigqueue stays around until the
task exits and is freed when task::sighand is dropped.
After posting this solution for mainline the discussion came up whether
this would be useful in general and should not be limited to realtime
tasks: https://lore.kernel.org/r/m11rcu7nbr.fsf@fess.ebiederm.org
One concern leading to the original limitation was to avoid a large amount
of pointlessly cached sigqueues in alive tasks. The other concern was
vs. RLIMIT_SIGPENDING as these cached sigqueues are not accounted for.
The accounting problem is real, but on the other hand slightly academic.
After gathering some statistics it turned out that after boot of a regular
distro install there are less than 10 sigqueues cached in ~1500 tasks.
In case of a 'mass fork and fire signal to child' scenario the extra 80
bytes of memory per task are well in the noise of the overall memory
consumption of the fork bomb.
If this should be limited then this would need an extra counter in struct
user, more atomic instructions and a seperate rlimit. Yet another tunable
which is mostly unused.
The caching is actually used. After boot and a full kernel compile on a
64CPU machine with make -j128 the number of 'allocations' looks like this:
From slab: 23996
From task cache: 52223
I.e. it reduces the number of slab cache operations by ~68%.
A typical pattern there is:
<...>-58490 __sigqueue_alloc: for 58488 from slab ffff8881132df460
<...>-58488 __sigqueue_free: cache ffff8881132df460
<...>-58488 __sigqueue_alloc: for 1149 from cache ffff8881103dc550
bash-1149 exit_task_sighand: free ffff8881132df460
bash-1149 __sigqueue_free: cache ffff8881103dc550
The interesting sequence is that the exiting task 58488 grabs the sigqueue
from bash's task cache to signal exit and bash sticks it back into it's own
cache. Lather, rinse and repeat.
The caching is probably not noticable for the general use case, but the
benefit for latency sensitive applications is clear. While kmem caches are
usually just serving from the fast path the slab merging (default) can
depending on the usage pattern of the merged slabs cause occasional slow
path allocations.
The time spared per cached entry is a few micro seconds per signal which is
not relevant for e.g. a kernel build, but for signal heavy workloads it's
measurable.
As there is no real downside of this caching mechanism making it
unconditionally available is preferred over more conditional code or new
magic tunables.

For cancelling io_uring requests it needs either to be able to run
currently enqueued task_works or having it shut down by that moment.
Otherwise io_uring_cancel_files() may be waiting for requests that won't
ever complete.
Go with the first way and do cancellations before setting PF_EXITING and
so before putting the task_work infrastructure into a transition state
where task_work_run() would better not be called.

exit_mm should issue memory barriers after user-space memory accesses,
before clearing current->mm, to order user-space memory accesses
performed prior to exit_mm before clearing tsk->mm, which has the
effect of skipping the membarrier private expedited IPIs.
exit_mm should also update the runqueue's membarrier_state so
membarrier global expedited IPIs are not sent when they are not
needed.
The membarrier system call can be issued concurrently with do_exit
if we have thread groups created with CLONE_VM but not CLONE_THREAD.
Here is the scenario I have in mind:
Two thread groups are created, A and B. Thread group B is created by
issuing clone from group A with flag CLONE_VM set, but not CLONE_THREAD.
Let's assume we have a single thread within each thread group (Thread A
and Thread B).
The AFAIU we can have:
Userspace variables:
int x = 0, y = 0;
CPU 0 CPU 1
Thread A Thread B
(in thread group A) (in thread group B)
x = 1
barrier()
y = 1
exit()
exit_mm()
current->mm = NULL;
r1 = load y
membarrier()
skips CPU 0 (no IPI) because its current mm is NULL
r2 = load x
BUG_ON(r1 == 1 && r2 == 0)

Coredump logics needs to report not only the registers of the dumping
thread, but (since 2.5.43) those of other threads getting killed.
Doing that might require extra state saved on the stack in asm glue at
kernel entry; signal delivery logics does that (we need to be able to
save sigcontext there, at the very least) and so does seccomp.
That covers all callers of do_coredump(). Secondary threads get hit with
SIGKILL and caught as soon as they reach exit_mm(), which normally happens
in signal delivery, so those are also fine most of the time. Unfortunately,
it is possible to end up with secondary zapped when it has already entered
exit(2) (or, worse yet, is oopsing). In those cases we reach exit_mm()
when mm->core_state is already set, but the stack contents is not what
we would have in signal delivery.
At least on two architectures (alpha and m68k) it leads to infoleaks - we
end up with a chunk of kernel stack written into coredump, with the contents
consisting of normal C stack frames of the call chain leading to exit_mm()
instead of the expected copy of userland registers. In case of alpha we
leak 312 bytes of stack. Other architectures (including the regset-using
ones) might have similar problems - the normal user of regsets is ptrace
and the state of tracee at the time of such calls is special in the same
way signal delivery is.
Note that had the zapper gotten to the exiting thread slightly later,
it wouldn't have been included into coredump anyway - we skip the threads
that have already cleared their ->mm. So let's pretend that zapper always
loses the race. IOW, have exit_mm() only insert into the dumper list if
we'd gotten there from handling a fatal signal[*]
As the result, the callers of do_exit() that have *not* gone through get_signal()
are not seen by coredump logics as secondary threads. Which excludes voluntary
exit()/oopsen/traps/etc. The dumper thread itself is unaffected by that,
so seccomp is fine.
[*] originally I intended to add a new flag in tsk->flags, but ebiederman pointed
out that PF_SIGNALED is already doing just what we need.

Passing a non-blocking pidfd to waitid() currently has no effect, i.e. is not
supported. There are users which would like to use waitid() on pidfds that are
O_NONBLOCK and mix it with pidfds that are blocking and both pass them to
waitid().
The expected behavior is to have waitid() return -EAGAIN for non-blocking
pidfds and to block for blocking pidfds without needing to perform any
additional checks for flags set on the pidfd before passing it to waitid().
Non-blocking pidfds will return EAGAIN from waitid() when no child process is
ready yet. Returning -EAGAIN for non-blocking pidfds makes it easier for event
loops that handle EAGAIN specially.
It also makes the API more consistent and uniform. In essence, waitid() is
treated like a read on a non-blocking pidfd or a recvmsg() on a non-blocking
socket.
With the addition of support for non-blocking pidfds we support the same
functionality that sockets do. For sockets() recvmsg() supports MSG_DONTWAIT
for pidfds waitid() supports WNOHANG. Both flags are per-call options. In
contrast non-blocking pidfds and non-blocking sockets are a setting on an open
file description affecting all threads in the calling process as well as other
processes that hold file descriptors referring to the same open file
description. Both behaviors, per call and per open file description, have
genuine use-cases.
The implementation should be straightforward:
- If a non-blocking pidfd is passed and WNOHANG is not raised we simply raise
the WNOHANG flag internally. When do_wait() returns indicating that there are
eligible child processes but none have exited yet we set EAGAIN. If no child
process exists we continue returning ECHILD.
- If a non-blocking pidfd is passed and WNOHANG is raised waitid() will
continue returning 0, i.e. it will not set EAGAIN. This ensure backwards
compatibility with applications passing WNOHANG explicitly with pidfds.
A concrete use-case that was brought on-list was Josh's async pidfd library.
Ever since the introduction of pidfds and more advanced async io various
programming languages such as Rust have grown support for async event
libraries. These libraries are created to help build epoll-based event loops
around file descriptors. A common pattern is to automatically make all file
descriptors they manage to O_NONBLOCK.
For such libraries the EAGAIN error code is treated specially. When a function
is called that returns EAGAIN the function isn't called again until the event
loop indicates the the file descriptor is ready. Supporting EAGAIN when
waiting on pidfds makes such libraries just work with little effort.

and make it through review in time for v5.9-rc1 resulting in 2 sets of
changes this cycle.
- Implement kernel_execve
- Make the user mode driver code a better citizen
With kernel_execve the code size got a little larger as the copying of
parameters from userspace and copying of parameters from userspace is
now separate. The good news is kernel threads no longer need to play
games with set_fs to use exec. Which when combined with the rest of

The seccomp filter used to be released in free_task() which is called
asynchronously via call_rcu() and assorted mechanisms. Since we need
to inform tasks waiting on the seccomp notifier when a filter goes empty
we will notify them as soon as a task has been marked fully dead in
release_task(). To not split seccomp cleanup into two parts, move
filter release out of free_task() and into release_task() after we've
unhashed struct task from struct pid, exited signals, and unlinked it
from the threadgroups' thread list. We'll put the empty filter
notification infrastructure into it in a follow up patch.
This also renames put_seccomp_filter() to seccomp_filter_release() which
is a more descriptive name of what we're doing here especially once
we've added the empty filter notification mechanism in there.
We're also NULL-ing the task's filter tree entrypoint which seems
cleaner than leaving a dangling pointer in there. Note that this shouldn't
need any memory barriers since we're calling this when the task is in
release_task() which means it's EXIT_DEAD. So it can't modify its seccomp
filters anymore. You can also see this from the point where we're calling
seccomp_filter_release(). It's after __exit_signal() and at this point,
tsk->sighand will already have been NULLed which is required for
thread-sync and filter installation alike.

Create an independent helper thread_group_exited which returns true
when all threads have passed exit_notify in do_exit. AKA all of the
threads are at least zombies and might be dead or completely gone.
Create this helper by taking the logic out of pidfd_poll where it is
already tested, and adding a READ_ONCE on the read of
task->exit_state.
I will be changing the user mode driver code to use this same logic
to know when a user mode driver needs to be restarted.
Place the new helper thread_group_exited in kernel/exit.c and
EXPORT it so it can be used by modules.

Use struct pid instead of user space pid values that are prone to wrap
araound.
In addition track the entire thread group instead of just the first
thread that is started by exec. There are no multi-threaded user mode
drivers today but there is nothing preclucing user drivers from being
multi-threaded, so it is just a good idea to track the entire process.
Take a reference count on the tgid's in question to make it possible
to remove exit_umh in a future change.
As a struct pid is available directly use kill_pid_info.
The prior process signalling code was iffy in using a userspace pid
known to be in the initial pid namespace and then looking up it's task
in whatever the current pid namespace is. It worked only because
kernel threads always run in the initial pid namespace.
As the tgid is now refcounted verify the tgid is NULL at the start of
fork_usermode_driver to avoid the possibility of silent pid leaks.

This makes it clear which code is part of the core user mode
helper support and which code is needed to implement user mode
drivers.
This makes the kernel smaller for everyone who does not use a usermode
driver.

Patch series "mm: consolidate definitions of page table accessors", v2.
The low level page table accessors (pXY_index(), pXY_offset()) are
duplicated across all architectures and sometimes more than once. For
instance, we have 31 definition of pgd_offset() for 25 supported
architectures.
Most of these definitions are actually identical and typically it boils
down to, e.g.
static inline unsigned long pmd_index(unsigned long address)
{
return (address >> PMD_SHIFT) & (PTRS_PER_PMD - 1);
}
static inline pmd_t *pmd_offset(pud_t *pud, unsigned long address)
{
return (pmd_t *)pud_page_vaddr(*pud) + pmd_index(address);
}
These definitions can be shared among 90% of the arches provided
XYZ_SHIFT, PTRS_PER_XYZ and xyz_page_vaddr() are defined.
For architectures that really need a custom version there is always
possibility to override the generic version with the usual ifdefs magic.
These patches introduce include/linux/pgtable.h that replaces
include/asm-generic/pgtable.h and add the definitions of the page table
accessors to the new header.
This patch (of 12):
The linux/mm.h header includes <asm/pgtable.h> to allow inlining of the
functions involving page table manipulations, e.g. pte_alloc() and
pmd_alloc(). So, there is no point to explicitly include <asm/pgtable.h>
in the files that include <linux/mm.h>.
The include statements in such cases are remove with a simple loop:
for f in $(git grep -l "include <linux/mm.h>") ; do
sed -i -e '/include <asm\/pgtable.h>/ d' $f
done

With CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP=y and CONFIG_CGROUPS=y, kernel oopses in
non-preemptible context look untidy; after the main oops, the kernel prints
a "sleeping function called from invalid context" report because
exit_signals() -> cgroup_threadgroup_change_begin() -> percpu_down_read()
can sleep, and that happens before the preempt_count_set(PREEMPT_ENABLED)
fixup.
It looks like the same thing applies to profile_task_exit() and
kcov_task_exit().
Fix it by moving the preemption fixup up and the calls to
profile_task_exit() and kcov_task_exit() down.

with CONFIG_PROC_FS unset that release_task will now leak the pid.
Move the put_pid out of proc_flush_pid into release_task to fix this
and to guarantee I don't make that mistake again.
When possible it makes sense to keep get and put in the same function
so it can easily been seen how they pair up.

"This contains two significant pieces of work: the work to sort out

Fixing proc_flush_task so that it no longer requires a persistent
mount makes improvements to proc possible. The removal of the
persistent mount solves an old regression that that caused the hidepid
mount option to only work on remount not on mount. The regression was
found and reported by the Android folks. This further allows Alexey
Gladkov's work making proc mount options specific to an individual
mount of proc to move forward.
The work on exec starts solving a long standing issue with exec that
it takes mutexes of blocking userspace applications, which makes exec
extremely deadlock prone. For the moment this adds a second mutex with
a narrower scope that handles all of the easy cases. Which makes the
tricky cases easy to spot. With a little luck the code to solve those
deadlocks will be ready by next merge window"

The reasons why the extra posix_cpu_timers_exit_group() invocation has been
added are not entirely clear from the commit message. Today all that
posix_cpu_timers_exit_group() does is stop timers that are tracking the
task from firing. Every other operation on those timers is still allowed.
The practical implication of this is posix_cpu_timer_del() which could
not get the siglock after the thread group leader has exited (because
sighand == NULL) would be able to run successfully because the timer
was already dequeued.
With that locking issue fixed there is no point in disabling all of the
timers. So remove this ``tempoary'' hack.

Rework the flushing of proc to use a list of directory inodes that
need to be flushed.
The list is kept on struct pid not on struct task_struct, as there is
a fixed connection between proc inodes and pids but at least for the
case of de_thread the pid of a task_struct changes.
This removes the dependency on proc_mnt which allows for different
mounts of proc having different mount options even in the same pid
namespace and this allows for the removal of proc_mnt which will
trivially the first mount of proc to honor it's mount options.
This flushing remains an optimization. The functions
pid_delete_dentry and pid_revalidate ensure that ordinary dcache
management will not attempt to use dentries past the point their
respective task has died. When unused the shrinker will
eventually be able to remove these dentries.
There is a case in de_thread where proc_flush_pid can be
called early for a given pid. Which winds up being
safe (if suboptimal) as this is just an optiimization.
Only pid directories are put on the list as the other
per pid files are children of those directories and
d_invalidate on the directory will get them as well.
So that the pid can be used during flushing it's reference count is
taken in release_task and dropped in proc_flush_pid. Further the call
of proc_flush_pid is moved after the tasklist_lock is released in
release_task so that it is certain that the pid has already been
unhashed when flushing it taking place. This removes a small race
where a dentry could recreated.
As struct pid is supposed to be small and I need a per pid lock
I reuse the only lock that currently exists in struct pid the
the wait_pidfd.lock.
The net result is that this adds all of this functionality
with just a little extra list management overhead and
a single extra pointer in struct pid.
v2: Initialize pid->inodes. I somehow failed to get that
initialization into the initial version of the patch. A boot
failure was reported by "kernel test robot <lkp@intel.com>", and
failure to initialize that pid->inodes matches all of the reported
symptoms.

Pull thread fixes from Christian Brauner:
"Here are two fixes:
- Panic earlier when global init exits to generate useable coredumps.
Currently, when global init and all threads in its thread-group
have exited we panic via:
do_exit()
-> exit_notify()
-> forget_original_parent()
-> find_child_reaper()
This makes it hard to extract a useable coredump for global init
from a kernel crashdump because by the time we panic exit_mm() will
have already released global init's mm. We now panic slightly
earlier. This has been a problem in certain environments such as
Android.
- Fix a race in assigning and reading taskstats for thread-groups
with more than one thread.
This patch has been waiting for quite a while since people
disagreed on what the correct fix was at first"

Pull pipe rework from David Howells:
"This is my set of preparatory patches for building a general
notification queue on top of pipes. It makes a number of significant
changes:
- It removes the nr_exclusive argument from __wake_up_sync_key() as
this is always 1. This prepares for the next step:
- Adds wake_up_interruptible_sync_poll_locked() so that poll can be
woken up from a function that's holding the poll waitqueue
spinlock.
- Change the pipe buffer ring to be managed in terms of unbounded
head and tail indices rather than bounded index and length. This
means that reading the pipe only needs to modify one index, not
two.
- A selection of helper functions are provided to query the state of
the pipe buffer, plus a couple to apply updates to the pipe
indices.
- The pipe ring is allowed to have kernel-reserved slots. This allows
many notification messages to be spliced in by the kernel without
allowing userspace to pin too many pages if it writes to the same
pipe.
- Advance the head and tail indices inside the pipe waitqueue lock
and use wake_up_interruptible_sync_poll_locked() to poke poll
without having to take the lock twice.
- Rearrange pipe_write() to preallocate the buffer it is going to
write into and then drop the spinlock. This allows kernel
notifications to then be added the ring whilst it is filling the
buffer it allocated. The read side is stalled because the pipe
mutex is still held.
- Don't wake up readers on a pipe if there was already data in it
when we added more.
- Don't wake up writers on a pipe if the ring wasn't full before we
removed a buffer"

Instead of relying on PF_EXITING use an explicit state for the futex exit
and set it in the futex exit function. This moves the smp barrier and the
lock/unlock serialization into the futex code.
As with the DEAD state this is restricted to the exit path as exec
continues to use the same task struct.
This allows to simplify that logic in a next step.

Setting task::futex_state in do_exit() is rather arbitrarily placed for no
reason. Move it into the futex code.
Note, this is only done for the exit cleanup as the exec cleanup cannot set
the state to FUTEX_STATE_DEAD because the task struct is still in active
use.

mm_release() contains the futex exit handling. mm_release() is called from
do_exit()->exit_mm() and from exec()->exec_mm().
In the exit_mm() case PF_EXITING and the futex state is updated. In the
exec_mm() case these states are not touched.
As the futex exit code needs further protections against exit races, this
needs to be split into two functions.
Preparatory only, no functional change.

The futex exit handling relies on PF_ flags. That's suboptimal as it
requires a smp_mb() and an ugly lock/unlock of the exiting tasks pi_lock in
the middle of do_exit() to enforce the observability of PF_EXITING in the
futex code.
Add a futex_state member to task_struct and convert the PF_EXITPIDONE logic
over to the new state. The PF_EXITING dependency will be cleaned up in a
later step.
This prepares for handling various futex exit issues later.

unnecessary code
Remove work arounds that were written before there was a grace period
after tasks left the runqueue in finish_task_switch().
In particular now that there tasks exiting the runqueue exprience
a RCU grace period none of the work performed by task_rcu_dereference()
excpet the rcu_dereference() is necessary so replace task_rcu_dereference()
with rcu_dereference().
Remove the code in rcuwait_wait_event() that checks to ensure the current
task has not exited. It is no longer necessary as it is guaranteed
that any running task will experience a RCU grace period after it
leaves the run queueue.
Remove the comment in rcuwait_wake_up() as it is no longer relevant.

Add a count of the number of RCU users (currently 1) of the task
struct so that we can later add the scheduler case and get rid of the
very subtle task_rcu_dereference(), and just use rcu_dereference().
As suggested by Oleg have the count overlap rcu_head so that no
additional space in task_struct is required.

Pull pidfd/waitid updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains two features and various tests.
First, it adds support for waiting on process through pidfds by adding
the P_PIDFD type to the waitid() syscall. This completes the basic
functionality of the pidfd api (cf. [1]). In the meantime we also have
a new adition to the userspace projects that make use of the pidfd
api. The qt project was nice enough to send a mail pointing out that
they have a pr up to switch to the pidfd api (cf. [2]).
Second, this tag contains an extension to the waitid() syscall to make
it possible to wait on the current process group in a race free manner
(even though the actual problem is very unlikely) by specifing 0
together with the P_PGID type. This extension traces back to a
discussion on the glibc development mailing list.
There are also a range of tests for the features above. Additionally,
the test-suite which detected the pidfd-polling race we fixed in [3]
is included in this tag"
