2018-02-28timers: Forward timer base before migrating timersLingutla Chandrasekhar
On CPU hotunplug the enqueued timers of the unplugged CPU are migrated to a live CPU. This happens from the control thread which initiated the unplug. If the CPU on which the control thread runs came out from a longer idle period then the base clock of that CPU might be stale because the control thread runs prior to any event which forwards the clock. In such a case the timers from the unplugged CPU are queued on the live CPU based on the stale clock which can cause large delays due to increased granularity of the outer timer wheels which are far away from base:;clock. But there is a worse problem than that. The following sequence of events illustrates it: - CPU0 timer1 is queued expires = 59969 and base->clk = 59131. The timer is queued at wheel level 2, with resulting expiry time = 60032 (due to level granularity). - CPU1 enters idle @60007, with next timer expiry @60020. - CPU0 is hotplugged at @60009 - CPU1 exits idle and runs the control thread which migrates the timers from CPU0 timer1 is now queued in level 0 for immediate handling in the next softirq because the requested expiry time 59969 is before CPU1 base->clk 60007 - CPU1 runs code which forwards the base clock which succeeds because the next expiring timer. which was collected at idle entry time is still set to 60020. So it forwards beyond 60007 and therefore misses to expire the migrated timer1. That timer gets expired when the wheel wraps around again, which takes between 63 and 630ms depending on the HZ setting. Address both problems by invoking forward_timer_base() for the control CPUs timer base. All other places, which might run into a similar problem (mod_timer()/add_timer_on()) already invoke forward_timer_base() to avoid that.

2018-02-11vfs: do bulk POLL* -> EPOLL* replacementLinus Torvalds
This is the mindless scripted replacement of kernel use of POLL* variables as described by Al, done by this script: for V in IN OUT PRI ERR RDNORM RDBAND WRNORM WRBAND HUP RDHUP NVAL MSG; do L=`git grep -l -w POLL$V | grep -v '^t' | grep -v /um/ | grep -v '^sa' | grep -v '/poll.h$'|grep -v '^D'` for f in $L; do sed -i "-es/^\([^\"]*\)\(\<POLL$V\>\)/\\1E\\2/" $f; done done with de-mangling cleanups yet to come. NOTE! On almost all architectures, the EPOLL* constants have the same values as the POLL* constants do. But they keyword here is "almost". For various bad reasons they aren't the same, and epoll() doesn't actually work quite correctly in some cases due to this on Sparc et al. The next patch from Al will sort out the final differences, and we should be all done. Scripted-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

At that point the amount of sparse warnings is low and most of them are for genuine bugs - e.g. ->poll() instance deciding to return -EINVAL instead of a bitmap. I hadn't touched those in this series - it's large enough as it is. Another problem it has caught was eventpoll() ABI mess; select.c and eventpoll.c assumed that corresponding POLL### and EPOLL### were equal. That's true for some, but not all of them - EPOLL### are arch-independent, but POLL### are not. The last commit in this series separates userland POLL### values from the (now arch-independent) kernel-side ones, converting between them in the few places where they are copied to/from userland. AFAICS, this is the least disruptive fix preserving poll(2) ABI and making epoll() work on all architectures. As it is, it's simply broken on sparc - try to give it EPOLLWRNORM and it will trigger only on what would've triggered EPOLLWRBAND on other architectures.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace Pull siginfo cleanups from Eric Biederman: "Long ago when 2.4 was just a testing release copy_siginfo_to_user was made to copy individual fields to userspace, possibly for efficiency and to ensure initialized values were not copied to userspace. Unfortunately the design was complex, it's assumptions unstated, and humans are fallible and so while it worked much of the time that design failed to ensure unitialized memory is not copied to userspace. This set of changes is part of a new design to clean up siginfo and simplify things, and hopefully make the siginfo handling robust enough that a simple inspection of the code can be made to ensure we don't copy any unitializied fields to userspace. The design is to unify struct siginfo and struct compat_siginfo into a single definition that is shared between all architectures so that anyone adding to the set of information shared with struct siginfo can see the whole picture. Hopefully ensuring all future si_code assignments are arch independent. The design is to unify copy_siginfo_to_user32 and copy_siginfo_from_user32 so that those function are complete and cope with all of the different cases documented in signinfo_layout. I don't think there was a single implementation of either of those functions that was complete and correct before my changes unified them. The design is to introduce a series of helpers including force_siginfo_fault that take the values that are needed in struct siginfo and build the siginfo structure for their callers. Ensuring struct siginfo is built correctly. The remaining work for 4.17 (unless someone thinks it is post -rc1 material) is to push usage of those helpers down into the architectures so that architecture specific code will not need to deal with the fiddly work of intializing struct siginfo, and then when struct siginfo is guaranteed to be fully initialized change copy siginfo_to_user into a simple wrapper around copy_to_user. Further there is work in progress on the issues that have been documented requires arch specific knowledge to sort out. The changes below fix or at least document all of the issues that have been found with siginfo generation. Then proceed to unify struct siginfo the 32 bit helpers that copy siginfo to and from userspace, and generally clean up anything that is not arch specific with regards to siginfo generation.

2018-01-27hrtimer: Reset hrtimer cpu base proper on CPU hotplugThomas Gleixner
The hrtimer interrupt code contains a hang detection and mitigation mechanism, which prevents that a long delayed hrtimer interrupt causes a continous retriggering of interrupts which prevent the system from making progress. If a hang is detected then the timer hardware is programmed with a certain delay into the future and a flag is set in the hrtimer cpu base which prevents newly enqueued timers from reprogramming the timer hardware prior to the chosen delay. The subsequent hrtimer interrupt after the delay clears the flag and resumes normal operation. If such a hang happens in the last hrtimer interrupt before a CPU is unplugged then the hang_detected flag is set and stays that way when the CPU is plugged in again. At that point the timer hardware is not armed and it cannot be armed because the hang_detected flag is still active, so nothing clears that flag. As a consequence the CPU does not receive hrtimer interrupts and no timers expire on that CPU which results in RCU stalls and other malfunctions. Clear the flag along with some other less critical members of the hrtimer cpu base to ensure starting from a clean state when a CPU is plugged in. Thanks to Paul, Sebastian and Anna-Maria for their help to get down to the root cause of that hard to reproduce heisenbug. Once understood it's trivial and certainly justifies a brown paperbag.

2018-01-16hrtimer: Implement support for softirq based hrtimersAnna-Maria Gleixner
hrtimer callbacks are always invoked in hard interrupt context. Several users in tree require soft interrupt context for their callbacks and achieve this by combining a hrtimer with a tasklet. The hrtimer schedules the tasklet in hard interrupt context and the tasklet callback gets invoked in softirq context later. That's suboptimal and aside of that the real-time patch moves most of the hrtimers into softirq context. So adding native support for hrtimers expiring in softirq context is a valuable extension for both mainline and the RT patch set. Each valid hrtimer clock id has two associated hrtimer clock bases: one for timers expiring in hardirq context and one for timers expiring in softirq context. Implement the functionality to associate a hrtimer with the hard or softirq related clock bases and update the relevant functions to take them into account when the next expiry time needs to be evaluated. Add a check into the hard interrupt context handler functions to check whether the first expiring softirq based timer has expired. If it's expired the softirq is raised and the accounting of softirq based timers to evaluate the next expiry time for programming the timer hardware is skipped until the softirq processing has finished. At the end of the softirq processing the regular processing is resumed.

2018-01-16hrtimer: Add clock bases and hrtimer mode for softirq contextAnna-Maria Gleixner
Currently hrtimer callback functions are always executed in hard interrupt context. Users of hrtimers, which need their timer function to be executed in soft interrupt context, make use of tasklets to get the proper context. Add additional hrtimer clock bases for timers which must expire in softirq context, so the detour via the tasklet can be avoided. This is also required for RT, where the majority of hrtimer is moved into softirq hrtimer context. The selection of the expiry mode happens via a mode bit. Introduce HRTIMER_MODE_SOFT and the matching combinations with the ABS/REL/PINNED bits and update the decoding of hrtimer_mode in tracepoints.

2018-01-16hrtimer: Use irqsave/irqrestore around __run_hrtimer()Anna-Maria Gleixner
__run_hrtimer() is called with the hrtimer_cpu_base.lock held and interrupts disabled. Before invoking the timer callback the base lock is dropped, but interrupts stay disabled. The upcoming support for softirq based hrtimers requires that interrupts are enabled before the timer callback is invoked. To avoid code duplication, take hrtimer_cpu_base.lock with raw_spin_lock_irqsave(flags) at the call site and hand in the flags as a parameter. So raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore() before the callback invocation will either keep interrupts disabled in interrupt context or restore to interrupt enabled state when called from softirq context.

2018-01-16hrtimer: Remove the 'base' parameter from hrtimer_reprogram()Anna-Maria Gleixner
hrtimer_reprogram() must have access to the hrtimer_clock_base of the new first expiring timer to access hrtimer_clock_base.offset for adjusting the expiry time to CLOCK_MONOTONIC. This is required to evaluate whether the new left most timer in the hrtimer_clock_base is the first expiring timer of all clock bases in a hrtimer_cpu_base. The only user of hrtimer_reprogram() is hrtimer_start_range_ns(), which has a pointer to hrtimer_clock_base() already and hands it in as a parameter. But hrtimer_start_range_ns() will be split for the upcoming support for softirq based hrtimers to avoid code duplication and will lose the direct access to the clock base pointer. Instead of handing in timer and timer->base as a parameter remove the base parameter from hrtimer_reprogram() instead and retrieve the clock base internally.

2018-01-16hrtimer: Make remote enqueue decision less restrictiveAnna-Maria Gleixner
The current decision whether a timer can be queued on a remote CPU checks for timer->expiry <= remote_cpu_base.expires_next. This is too restrictive because a timer with the same expiry time as an existing timer will be enqueued on right-hand size of the existing timer inside the rbtree, i.e. behind the first expiring timer. So its safe to allow enqueuing timers with the same expiry time as the first expiring timer on a remote CPU base.

2018-01-16hrtimer: Unify remote enqueue handlingAnna-Maria Gleixner
hrtimer_reprogram() is conditionally invoked from hrtimer_start_range_ns() when hrtimer_cpu_base.hres_active is true. In the !hres_active case there is a special condition for the nohz_active case: If the newly enqueued timer expires before the first expiring timer on a remote CPU then the remote CPU needs to be notified and woken up from a NOHZ idle sleep to take the new first expiring timer into account. Previous changes have already established the prerequisites to make the remote enqueue behaviour the same whether high resolution mode is active or not: If the to be enqueued timer expires before the first expiring timer on a remote CPU, then it cannot be enqueued there. This was done for the high resolution mode because there is no way to access the remote CPU timer hardware. The same is true for NOHZ, but was handled differently by unconditionally enqueuing the timer and waking up the remote CPU so it can reprogram its timer. Again there is no compelling reason for this difference. hrtimer_check_target(), which makes the 'can remote enqueue' decision is already unconditional, but not yet functional because nothing updates hrtimer_cpu_base.expires_next in the !hres_active case. To unify this the following changes are required: 1) Make the store of the new first expiry time unconditonal in hrtimer_reprogram() and check __hrtimer_hres_active() before proceeding to the actual hardware access. This check also lets the compiler eliminate the rest of the function in case of CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS=n. 2) Invoke hrtimer_reprogram() unconditionally from hrtimer_start_range_ns() 3) Remove the remote wakeup special case for the !high_res && nohz_active case. Confine the timers_nohz_active static key to timer.c which is the only user now.

2018-01-16hrtimer: Unify hrtimer removal handlingAnna-Maria Gleixner
When the first hrtimer on the current CPU is removed, hrtimer_force_reprogram() is invoked but only when CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS=y and hrtimer_cpu_base.hres_active is set. hrtimer_force_reprogram() updates hrtimer_cpu_base.expires_next and reprograms the clock event device. When CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS=y and hrtimer_cpu_base.hres_active is set, a pointless hrtimer interrupt can be prevented. hrtimer_check_target() makes the 'can remote enqueue' decision. As soon as hrtimer_check_target() is unconditionally available and hrtimer_cpu_base.expires_next is updated by hrtimer_reprogram(), hrtimer_force_reprogram() needs to be available unconditionally as well to prevent the following scenario with CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS=n: - the first hrtimer on this CPU is removed and hrtimer_force_reprogram() is not executed - CPU goes idle (next timer is calculated and hrtimers are taken into account) - a hrtimer is enqueued remote on the idle CPU: hrtimer_check_target() compares expiry value and hrtimer_cpu_base.expires_next. The expiry value is after expires_next, so the hrtimer is enqueued. This timer will fire late, if it expires before the effective first hrtimer on this CPU and the comparison was with an outdated expires_next value. To prevent this scenario, make hrtimer_force_reprogram() unconditional except the effective reprogramming part, which gets eliminated by the compiler in the CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS=n case.

2018-01-16hrtimer: Make hrtimer_cpu_base.next_timer handling unconditionalAnna-Maria Gleixner
hrtimer_cpu_base.next_timer stores the pointer to the next expiring timer in a CPU base. This pointer cannot be dereferenced and is solely used to check whether a hrtimer which is removed is the hrtimer which is the first to expire in the CPU base. If this is the case, then the timer hardware needs to be reprogrammed to avoid an extra interrupt for nothing. Again, this is conditional functionality, but there is no compelling reason to make this conditional. As a preparation, hrtimer_cpu_base.next_timer needs to be available unconditonally. Aside of that the upcoming support for softirq based hrtimers requires access to this pointer unconditionally as well, so our motivation is not entirely simplicity based. Make the update of hrtimer_cpu_base.next_timer unconditional and remove the #ifdef cruft. The impact on CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS=n && CONFIG_NOHZ=n is marginal as it's just a store on an already dirtied cacheline. No functional change.

2018-01-16hrtimer: Make the remote enqueue check unconditionalAnna-Maria Gleixner
hrtimer_cpu_base.expires_next is used to cache the next event armed in the timer hardware. The value is used to check whether an hrtimer can be enqueued remotely. If the new hrtimer is expiring before expires_next, then remote enqueue is not possible as the remote hrtimer hardware cannot be accessed for reprogramming to an earlier expiry time. The remote enqueue check is currently conditional on CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS=y and hrtimer_cpu_base.hres_active. There is no compelling reason to make this conditional. Move hrtimer_cpu_base.expires_next out of the CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS=y guarded area and remove the conditionals in hrtimer_check_target(). The check is currently a NOOP for the CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS=n and the !hrtimer_cpu_base.hres_active case because in these cases nothing updates hrtimer_cpu_base.expires_next yet.

2018-01-16hrtimer: Store running timer in hrtimer_clock_baseAnna-Maria Gleixner
The pointer to the currently running timer is stored in hrtimer_cpu_base before the base lock is dropped and the callback is invoked. This results in two levels of indirections and the upcoming support for softirq based hrtimer requires splitting the "running" storage into soft and hard IRQ context expiry. Storing both in the cpu base would require conditionals in all code paths accessing that information. It's possible to have a per clock base sequence count and running pointer without changing the semantics of the related mechanisms because the timer base pointer cannot be changed while a timer is running the callback. Unfortunately this makes cpu_clock base larger than 32 bytes on 32-bit kernels. Instead of having huge gaps due to alignment, remove the alignment and let the compiler pack CPU base for 32-bit kernels. The resulting cache access patterns are fortunately not really different from the current behaviour. On 64-bit kernels the 64-byte alignment stays and the behaviour is unchanged. This was determined by analyzing the resulting layout and looking at the number of cache lines involved for the frequently used clocks.

2017-12-29nohz: Prevent a timer interrupt storm in tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick()Thomas Gleixner
The conditions in irq_exit() to invoke tick_nohz_irq_exit() which subsequently invokes tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() are: if ((idle_cpu(cpu) && !need_resched()) || tick_nohz_full_cpu(cpu)) If need_resched() is not set, but a timer softirq is pending then this is an indication that the softirq code punted and delegated the execution to softirqd. need_resched() is not true because the current interrupted task takes precedence over softirqd. Invoking tick_nohz_irq_exit() in this case can cause an endless loop of timer interrupts because the timer wheel contains an expired timer, but softirqs are not yet executed. So it returns an immediate expiry request, which causes the timer to fire immediately again. Lather, rinse and repeat.... Prevent that by adding a check for a pending timer soft interrupt to the conditions in tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() which avoid calling get_next_timer_interrupt(). That keeps the tick sched timer on the tick and prevents a repetitive programming of an already expired timer.

2017-12-29timers: Use deferrable base independent of base::nohz_activeAnna-Maria Gleixner
During boot and before base::nohz_active is set in the timer bases, deferrable timers are enqueued into the standard timer base. This works correctly as long as base::nohz_active is false. Once it base::nohz_active is set and a timer which was enqueued before that is accessed the lock selector code choses the lock of the deferred base. This causes unlocked access to the standard base and in case the timer is removed it does not clear the pending flag in the standard base bitmap which causes get_next_timer_interrupt() to return bogus values. To prevent that, the deferrable timers must be enqueued in the deferrable base, even when base::nohz_active is not set. Those deferrable timers also need to be expired unconditional.

CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL doesn't make sense without CONFIG_CPU_ISOLATION. In fact enabling the first without the second is a regression as nohz_full= boot parameter gets silently ignored. Besides this unnatural combination hangs RCU gp kthread when running rcutorture for reasons that are not yet fully understood: rcu_preempt kthread starved for 9974 jiffies! g4294967208 +c4294967207 f0x0 RCU_GP_WAIT_FQS(3) ->state=0x402 ->cpu=0 rcu_preempt I 7464 8 2 0x80000000 Call Trace: __schedule+0x493/0x620 schedule+0x24/0x40 schedule_timeout+0x330/0x3b0 ? preempt_count_sub+0xea/0x140 ? collect_expired_timers+0xb0/0xb0 rcu_gp_kthread+0x6bf/0xef0 This commit therefore makes NO_HZ_FULL select CPU_ISOLATION, which prevents all these bad behaviours.

2017-12-15posix-timer: Properly check sigevent->sigev_notifyThomas Gleixner
timer_create() specifies via sigevent->sigev_notify the signal delivery for the new timer. The valid modes are SIGEV_NONE, SIGEV_SIGNAL, SIGEV_THREAD and (SIGEV_SIGNAL | SIGEV_THREAD_ID). The sanity check in good_sigevent() is only checking the valid combination for the SIGEV_THREAD_ID bit, i.e. SIGEV_SIGNAL, but if SIGEV_THREAD_ID is not set it accepts any random value. This has no real effects on the posix timer and signal delivery code, but it affects show_timer() which handles the output of /proc/$PID/timers. That function uses a string array to pretty print sigev_notify. The access to that array has no bound checks, so random sigev_notify cause access beyond the array bounds. Add proper checks for the valid notify modes and remove the SIGEV_THREAD_ID masking from various code pathes as SIGEV_NONE can never be set in combination with SIGEV_THREAD_ID.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux into timers/urgent Pull the last batch of manual timer conversions from Kees Cook: - final batch of "non trivial" timer conversions (multi-tree dependencies, things Coccinelle couldn't handle, etc). - treewide conversions via Coccinelle, in 4 steps: - DEFINE_TIMER() functions converted to struct timer_list * argument - init_timer() -> setup_timer() - setup_timer() -> timer_setup() - setup_timer() -> timer_setup() (with a single embedded structure) - deprecated timer API removals (init_timer(), setup_*timer()) - finalization of new API (remove global casts)
