The current always succeed behavior in bpf_struct_ops_map_delete_elem()
is not ideal for userspace tool. It can be improved to return proper
error value.
If it is in TOBEFREE, it means unregistration has been already done
before but it is in progress and waiting for the subsystem to clear
the refcnt to zero, so -EINPROGRESS.
If it is INIT, it means the struct_ops has not been registered yet,
so -ENOENT.

When experimenting with bpf_send_signal() helper in our production
environment (5.2 based), we experienced a deadlock in NMI mode:

The above call stack is actually very similar to an issue
reported by Commit eac9153f2b58 ("bpf/stackmap: Fix deadlock with
rq_lock in bpf_get_stack()") by Song Liu. The only difference is
bpf_send_signal() helper instead of bpf_get_stack() helper.
The above deadlock is triggered with a perf_sw_event.
Similar to Commit eac9153f2b58, the below almost identical reproducer
used tracepoint point sched/sched_switch so the issue can be easily caught.

and the following command:

The deadlock can be reproduced in our production system.
Similar to Song's fix, the fix is to delay sending signal if
irqs is disabled to avoid deadlocks involving with rq_lock.
With this change, my above stress-test in our production system
won't cause deadlock any more.
I also implemented a scale-down version of reproducer in the
selftest (a subsequent commit). With latest bpf-next,
it complains for the following potential deadlock.

Deadlock happens on CPU0 when it tries to acquire &sighand->siglock
but it has been held by CPU1 and CPU1 tries to grab &rq->lock
and cannot get it.
This is not exactly the callstack in our production environment,
but sympotom is similar and both locks are using spin_lock_irqsave()
to acquire the lock, and both involves rq_lock. The fix to delay
sending signal when irq is disabled also fixed this issue.

When queueing a signal, we increment both the users count of pending
signals (for RLIMIT_SIGPENDING tracking) and we increment the refcount
of the user struct itself (because we keep a reference to the user in
the signal structure in order to correctly account for it when freeing).
That turns out to be fairly expensive, because both of them are atomic
updates, and particularly under extreme signal handling pressure on big
machines, you can get a lot of cache contention on the user struct.
That can then cause horrid cacheline ping-pong when you do these
multiple accesses.
So change the reference counting to only pin the user for the _first_
pending signal, and to unpin it when the last pending signal is
dequeued. That means that when a user sees a lot of concurrent signal
queuing - which is the only situation when this matters - the only
atomic access needed is generally the 'sigpending' count update.
This was noticed because of a particularly odd timing artifact on a
dual-socket 96C/192T Cascade Lake platform: when you get into bad
contention, on that machine for some reason seems to be much worse when
the contention happens in the upper 32-byte half of the cacheline.
As a result, the kernel test robot will-it-scale 'signal1' benchmark had
an odd performance regression simply due to random alignment of the
'struct user_struct' (and pointed to a completely unrelated and
apparently nonsensical commit for the regression).
Avoiding the double increments (and decrements on the dequeueing side,
of course) makes for much less contention and hugely improved
performance on that will-it-scale microbenchmark.
Quoting Feng Tang:
"It makes a big difference, that the performance score is tripled! bump
from original 17000 to 54000. Also the gap between 5.0-rc6 and
5.0-rc6+Jiri's patch is reduced to around 2%"
[ The "2% gap" is the odd cacheline placement difference on that
platform: under the extreme contention case, the effect of which half
of the cacheline was hot was 5%, so with the reduced contention the
odd timing artifact is reduced too ]
It does help in the non-contended case too, but is not nearly as
noticeable.

Since commit d8a953ddde5e ("bootconfig: Set CONFIG_BOOT_CONFIG=n by
default") also changed the CONFIG_BOOTTIME_TRACING to select
CONFIG_BOOT_CONFIG to show the boot-time tracing on the menu,
it introduced wrong dependencies with BLK_DEV_INITRD as below.
WARNING: unmet direct dependencies detected for BOOT_CONFIG
Depends on [n]: BLK_DEV_INITRD [=n]
Selected by [y]:
- BOOTTIME_TRACING [=y] && TRACING_SUPPORT [=y] && FTRACE [=y] && TRACING [=y]
This makes the CONFIG_BOOT_CONFIG selects CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD to
fix this error and make CONFIG_BOOTTIME_TRACING=n by default, so
that both boot-time tracing and boot configuration off but those
appear on the menu list.

Commit 219ca39427bf ("audit: use union for audit_field values since
they are mutually exclusive") combined a number of separate fields in
the audit_field struct into a single union. Generally this worked
just fine because they are generally mutually exclusive.
Unfortunately in audit_data_to_entry() the overlap can be a problem
when a specific error case is triggered that causes the error path
code to attempt to cleanup an audit_field struct and the cleanup
involves attempting to free a stored LSM string (the lsm_str field).
Currently the code always has a non-NULL value in the
audit_field.lsm_str field as the top of the for-loop transfers a
value into audit_field.val (both .lsm_str and .val are part of the
same union); if audit_data_to_entry() fails and the audit_field
struct is specified to contain a LSM string, but the
audit_field.lsm_str has not yet been properly set, the error handling
code will attempt to free the bogus audit_field.lsm_str value that
was set with audit_field.val at the top of the for-loop.
This patch corrects this by ensuring that the audit_field.val is only
set when needed (it is cleared when the audit_field struct is
allocated with kcalloc()). It also corrects a few other issues to
ensure that in case of error the proper error code is returned.

Pull irq fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"Two fixes for the irq core code which are follow ups to the recent MSI
fixes:
- The WARN_ON which was put into the MSI setaffinity callback for
paranoia reasons actually triggered via a callchain which escaped
when all the possible ways to reach that code were analyzed.
The proc/irq/$N/*affinity interfaces have a quirk which came in
when ALPHA moved to the generic interface: In case that the written
affinity mask does not contain any online CPU it calls into ALPHAs
magic auto affinity setting code.
A few years later this mechanism was also made available to x86 for
no good reasons and in a way which circumvents all sanity checks
for interrupts which cannot have their affinity set from process
context on X86 due to the way the X86 interrupt delivery works.
It would be possible to make this work properly, but there is no
point in doing so. If the interrupt is not yet started then the
affinity setting has no effect and if it is started already then it
is already assigned to an online CPU so there is no point to
randomly move it to some other CPU. Just return EINVAL as the code
has done before that change forever.
- The new MSI quirk bit in the irq domain flags turned out to be
already occupied, which escaped the author and the reviewers
because the already in use bits were 0,6,2,3,4,5 listed in that
order.
That bit 6 was simply overlooked because the ordering was straight
forward linear otherwise. So the new bit ended up being a
duplicate.
Fix it up by switching the oddball 6 to the obvious 1"

Clear trace_state data structure when starting trace
in __synth_event_trace_start() internal function.
Currently trace_state is initialized only in the
synth_event_trace_start() API, but the trace_state
in synth_event_trace() and synth_event_trace_array()
are on the stack without initialization.
This means those APIs will see wrong parameters and
wil skip closing process in __synth_event_trace_end()
because trace_state->disabled may be !0.

The tracing seftests checks various aspects of the tracing infrastructure,
and one is filtering. If trace_printk() is active during a self test, it can
cause the filtering to fail, which will disable that part of the trace.
To keep the selftests from failing because of trace_printk() calls,
trace_printk() checks the variable tracing_selftest_running, and if set, it
does not write to the tracing buffer.
As some tracers were registered earlier in boot, the selftest they triggered
would fail because not all the infrastructure was set up for the full
selftest. Thus, some of the tests were post poned to when their
infrastructure was ready (namely file system code). The postpone code did
not set the tracing_seftest_running variable, and could fail if a
trace_printk() was added and executed during their run.

The test code that tests synthetic event creation pushes in as one of its
test fields the current CPU using "smp_processor_id()". As this is just
something to see if the value is correctly passed in, and the actual CPU
used does not matter, use raw_smp_processor_id(), otherwise with debug
preemption enabled, a warning happens as the smp_processor_id() is called
without preemption enabled.

strange output and oopses on 32-bit x86 systems. The problem is that
trace_seq_printf() expects the varargs to match the format string, but
print_synth_event() was always passing u64 values regardless. This
results in unspecified behavior when unpacking with va_arg() in
trace_seq_printf().
Add a function that takes the size into account when calling
trace_seq_printf().

Commit 7276531d4036('tracing: Consolidate trace() functions')
inadvertently dropped the synth_event_trace() and
synth_event_trace_array() checks that verify the number of values
passed in matches the number of fields in the synthetic event being
traced, so add them back.

synth_event_trace() is the varargs version of synth_event_trace_array(),
which takes an array of u64, as do synth_event_add_val() et al.
To not only be consistent with those, but also to address the fact
that synth_event_trace() expects every arg to be of the same type
since it doesn't also pass in e.g. a format string, the caller needs
to make sure all args are of the same type, u64. u64 is used because
it needs to accomodate the largest type available in synthetic events,
which is u64.
This fixes the bug reported by the kernel test robot/Rong Chen.

Commit 057996380a42 ("bpf: Add batch ops to all htab bpf map")
added lookup_and_delete batch operation for hash table.
The current implementation has bpf_lru_push_free() inside
the bucket lock, which may cause a deadlock.

Grabbing the spinlock for every bucket even if it's empty, was causing
significant perfomance cost when traversing htab maps that have only a
few entries. This patch addresses the issue by checking first the
bucket_cnt, if the bucket has some entries then we go and grab the
spinlock and proceed with the batching.
Tested with a htab of size 50K and different value of populated entries.

s390 math emulation was removed with commit 5a79859ae0f3 ("s390:
remove 31 bit support"), rendering ieee_emulation_warnings useless.
The code still built because it was protected by CONFIG_MATHEMU, which
was no longer selectable.
This patch removes the sysctl_ieee_emulation_warnings declaration and
the sysctl entry declaration.

Qian Cai reported that the WARN_ON() in the x86/msi affinity setting code,
which catches cases where the affinity setting is not done on the CPU which
is the current target of the interrupt, triggers during CPU hotplug stress
testing.
It turns out that the warning which was added with the commit addressing
the MSI affinity race unearthed yet another long standing bug.
If user space writes a bogus affinity mask, i.e. it contains no online CPUs,
then it calls irq_select_affinity_usr(). This was introduced for ALPHA in
eee45269b0f5 ("[PATCH] Alpha: convert to generic irq framework (generic part)")
and subsequently made available for all architectures in
18404756765c ("genirq: Expose default irq affinity mask (take 3)")
which introduced the circumvention of the affinity setting restrictions for
interrupt which cannot be moved in process context.
The whole exercise is bogus in various aspects:
1) If the interrupt is already started up then there is absolutely
no point to honour a bogus interrupt affinity setting from user
space. The interrupt is already assigned to an online CPU and it
does not make any sense to reassign it to some other randomly
chosen online CPU.
2) If the interupt is not yet started up then there is no point
either. A subsequent startup of the interrupt will invoke
irq_setup_affinity() anyway which will chose a valid target CPU.
So the only correct solution is to just return -EINVAL in case user space
wrote an affinity mask which does not contain any online CPUs, except for
ALPHA which has it's own magic sauce for this.

It is theoretically possible for the ACPI EC GPE to be set after the
s2idle_ops->wake() called from s2idle_loop() has returned and before
the subsequent pm_wakeup_pending() check is carried out. If that
happens, the resulting wakeup event will cause the system to resume
even though it may be a spurious one.
To avoid that race, first make the ->wake() callback in struct
platform_s2idle_ops return a bool value indicating whether or not
to let the system resume and rearrange s2idle_loop() to use that
value instad of the direct pm_wakeup_pending() call if ->wake() is
present.
Next, rework acpi_s2idle_wake() to process EC events and check
pm_wakeup_pending() before re-arming the SCI for system wakeup
to prevent it from triggering prematurely and add comments to
that function to explain the rationale for the new code flow.

8ab39f11d974 ("xfs: prevent CIL push holdoff in log recovery")
changed the logic from using bound workqueues to using unbound
workqueues. Functionally this makes sense but it was observed at the
time that the dbench performance dropped quite a lot and CPU migrations
were increased.
The current pattern of the task migration is straight-forward. With XFS,
an IO issuer delegates work to xlog_cil_push_work ()on an unbound kworker.
This runs on a nearby CPU and on completion, dbench wakes up on its old CPU
as it is still idle and no migration occurs. dbench then queues the real
IO on the blk_mq_requeue_work() work item which runs on a bound kworker
which is forced to run on the same CPU as dbench. When IO completes,
the bound kworker wakes dbench but as the kworker is a bound but,
real task, the CPU is not considered idle and dbench gets migrated by
select_idle_sibling() to a new CPU. dbench may ping-pong between two CPUs
for a while but ultimately it starts a round-robin of all CPUs sharing
the same LLC. High-frequency migration on each IO completion has poor
performance overall. It has negative implications both in commication
costs and power management. mpstat confirmed that at low thread counts
that all CPUs sharing an LLC has low level of activity.
Note that even if the CIL patch was reverted, there still would
be migrations but the impact is less noticeable. It turns out that
individually the scheduler, XFS, blk-mq and workqueues all made sensible
decisions but in combination, the overall effect was sub-optimal.
This patch special cases the IO issue/completion pattern and allows
a bound kworker waker and a task wakee to stack on the same CPU if
there is a strong chance they are directly related. The expectation
is that the kworker is likely going back to sleep shortly. This is not
guaranteed as the IO could be queued asynchronously but there is a very
strong relationship between the task and kworker in this case that would
justify stacking on the same CPU instead of migrating. There should be
few concerns about kworker starvation given that the special casing is
only when the kworker is the waker.

Dbench has been modified to report the time to complete a single "load
file". This is a more meaningful metric for dbench that a throughput
metric as the benchmark makes many different system calls that are not
throughput-related
Patch shows a 9.23% and 48.53% reduction in the time to process a load
file with the difference partially explained by the number of CPUs sharing
a LLC. In a separate run, task migrations were almost eliminated by the
patch for low client counts. In case people have issue with the metric
used for the benchmark, this is a comparison of the throughputs as
reported by dbench on the NUMA machine.

Note that this is somewhat specific to XFS and ext4 shows no performance
difference as it does not rely on kworkers in the same way. No major
problem was observed running other workloads on different machines although
not all tests have completed yet.

Pull x86 fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"A set of fixes for X86:
- Ensure that the PIT is set up when the local APIC is disable or
configured in legacy mode. This is caused by an ordering issue
introduced in the recent changes which skip PIT initialization when
the TSC and APIC frequencies are already known.
- Handle malformed SRAT tables during early ACPI parsing which caused
an infinite loop anda boot hang.
- Fix a long standing race in the affinity setting code which affects
PCI devices with non-maskable MSI interrupts. The problem is caused
by the non-atomic writes of the MSI address (destination APIC id)
and data (vector) fields which the device uses to construct the MSI
message. The non-atomic writes are mandated by PCI.
If both fields change and the device raises an interrupt after
writing address and before writing data, then the MSI block
constructs a inconsistent message which causes interrupts to be
lost and subsequent malfunction of the device.
The fix is to redirect the interrupt to the new vector on the
current CPU first and then switch it over to the new target CPU.
This allows to observe an eventually raised interrupt in the
transitional stage (old CPU, new vector) to be observed in the APIC
IRR and retriggered on the new target CPU and the new vector.
The potential spurious interrupts caused by this are harmless and
can in the worst case expose a buggy driver (all handlers have to
be able to deal with spurious interrupts as they can and do happen
for various reasons).
- Add the missing suspend/resume mechanism for the HYPERV hypercall
page which prevents resume hibernation on HYPERV guests. This
change got lost before the merge window.
- Mask the IOAPIC before disabling the local APIC to prevent
potentially stale IOAPIC remote IRR bits which cause stale
interrupt lines after resume"

Pull vfs file system parameter updates from Al Viro:
"Saner fs_parser.c guts and data structures. The system-wide registry
of syntax types (string/enum/int32/oct32/.../etc.) is gone and so is
the horror switch() in fs_parse() that would have to grow another case
every time something got added to that system-wide registry.
New syntax types can be added by filesystems easily now, and their
namespace is that of functions - not of system-wide enum members. IOW,
they can be shared or kept private and if some turn out to be widely
useful, we can make them common library helpers, etc., without having
to do anything whatsoever to fs_parse() itself.
And we already get that kind of requests - the thing that finally
pushed me into doing that was "oh, and let's add one for timeouts -
things like 15s or 2h". If some filesystem really wants that, let them
do it. Without somebody having to play gatekeeper for the variants
blessed by direct support in fs_parse(), TYVM.
Quite a bit of boilerplate is gone. And IMO the data structures make a
