capacity_spare_wake() in the slow path influences choice of idlest groups,
as we search for groups with maximum spare capacity. In scenarios where
RT pressure is high, a sub optimal group can be chosen and hurt
performance of the task being woken up.
Fix this by using capacity_of() instead of capacity_orig_of() in capacity_spare_wake().
Tests results from improvements with this change are below. More tests
were also done by myself and Matt Fleming to ensure no degradation in
different benchmarks.
1) Rohit ran barrier.c test (details below) with following improvements:

This was Rohit's original use case for a patch he posted at [1] however
from his recent tests he showed my patch can replace his slow path
changes [1] and there's no need to selectively scan/skip CPUs in
find_idlest_group_cpu in the slow path to get the improvement he sees.

iterations and barrier sync at the end of each for loop.
Here barrier,c is running in along with ping on CPU 0 and 1 as:

The BPF interpreter has been used as part of the spectre 2 attack CVE-2017-5715.
A quote from goolge project zero blog:
"At this point, it would normally be necessary to locate gadgets in
the host kernel code that can be used to actually leak data by reading
from an attacker-controlled location, shifting and masking the result
appropriately and then using the result of that as offset to an
attacker-controlled address for a load. But piecing gadgets together
and figuring out which ones work in a speculation context seems annoying.
So instead, we decided to use the eBPF interpreter, which is built into
the host kernel - while there is no legitimate way to invoke it from inside
a VM, the presence of the code in the host kernel's text section is sufficient
to make it usable for the attack, just like with ordinary ROP gadgets."
To make attacker job harder introduce BPF_JIT_ALWAYS_ON config
option that removes interpreter from the kernel in favor of JIT-only mode.
So far eBPF JIT is supported by:
x64, arm64, arm32, sparc64, s390, powerpc64, mips64
The start of JITed program is randomized and code page is marked as read-only.
In addition "constant blinding" can be turned on with net.core.bpf_jit_harden
v2->v3:
- move __bpf_prog_ret0 under ifdef (Daniel)
v1->v2:
- fix init order, test_bpf and cBPF (Daniel's feedback)
- fix offloaded bpf (Jakub's feedback)
- add 'return 0' dummy in case something can invoke prog->bpf_func
- retarget bpf tree. For bpf-next the patch would need one extra hunk.
It will be sent when the trees are merged back to net-next
Considered doing:
int bpf_jit_enable __read_mostly = BPF_EBPF_JIT_DEFAULT;
but it seems better to land the patch as-is and in bpf-next remove
bpf_jit_enable global variable from all JITs, consolidate in one place
and remove this jit_init() function.

dereference_symbol_descriptor() invokes appropriate ARCH specific
function descriptor dereference callbacks:
- dereference_kernel_function_descriptor() if the pointer is a
kernel symbol;
- dereference_module_function_descriptor() if the pointer is a
module symbol.
This is the last step needed to make '%pS/%ps' smart enough to
handle function descriptor dereference on affected ARCHs and
to retire '%pF/%pf'.
To refresh it:
Some architectures (ia64, ppc64, parisc64) use an indirect pointer
for C function pointers - the function pointer points to a function
descriptor and we need to dereference it to get the actual function
pointer.
Function descriptors live in .opd elf section and all affected
ARCHs (ia64, ppc64, parisc64) handle it properly for kernel and
modules. So we, technically, can decide if the dereference is
needed by simply looking at the pointer: if it belongs to .opd
section then we need to dereference it.
The kernel and modules have their own .opd sections, obviously,
that's why we need to split dereference_function_descriptor()
and use separate kernel and module dereference arch callbacks.

There are two format specifiers to print out a pointer in symbolic
format: '%pS/%ps' and '%pF/%pf'. On most architectures, the two
mean exactly the same thing, but some architectures (ia64, ppc64,
parisc64) use an indirect pointer for C function pointers, where
the function pointer points to a function descriptor (which in
turn contains the actual pointer to the code). The '%pF/%pf, when
used appropriately, automatically does the appropriate function
descriptor dereference on such architectures.
The "when used appropriately" part is tricky. Basically this is
a subtle ABI detail, specific to some platforms, that made it to
the API level and people can be unaware of it and miss the whole
"we need to dereference the function" business out. [1] proves
that point (note that it fixes only '%pF' and '%pS', there might
be '%pf' and '%ps' cases as well).
It appears that we can handle everything within the affected
arches and make '%pS/%ps' smart enough to retire '%pF/%pf'.
Function descriptors live in .opd elf section and all affected
arches (ia64, ppc64, parisc64) handle it properly for kernel
and modules. So we, technically, can decide if the dereference
is needed by simply looking at the pointer: if it belongs to
.opd section then we need to dereference it.
The kernel and modules have their own .opd sections, obviously,
that's why we need to split dereference_function_descriptor()
and use separate kernel and module dereference arch callbacks.
This patch does the first step, it
a) adds dereference_kernel_function_descriptor() function.
b) adds a weak alias to dereference_module_function_descriptor()
function.
So, for the time being, we will have:
1) dereference_function_descriptor()
A generic function, that simply dereferences the pointer. There is
bunch of places that call it: kgdbts, init/main.c, extable, etc.
2) dereference_kernel_function_descriptor()
A function to call on kernel symbols that does kernel .opd section
address range test.
3) dereference_module_function_descriptor()
A function to call on modules' symbols that does modules' .opd
section address range test.

Under speculation, CPUs may mis-predict branches in bounds checks. Thus,
memory accesses under a bounds check may be speculated even if the
bounds check fails, providing a primitive for building a side channel.
To avoid leaking kernel data round up array-based maps and mask the index
after bounds check, so speculated load with out of bounds index will load
either valid value from the array or zero from the padded area.
Unconditionally mask index for all array types even when max_entries
are not rounded to power of 2 for root user.
When map is created by unpriv user generate a sequence of bpf insns
that includes AND operation to make sure that JITed code includes
the same 'index & index_mask' operation.
If prog_array map is created by unpriv user replace
bpf_tail_call(ctx, map, index);
with
if (index >= max_entries) {
index &= map->index_mask;
bpf_tail_call(ctx, map, index);
}
(along with roundup to power 2) to prevent out-of-bounds speculation.
There is secondary redundant 'if (index >= max_entries)' in the interpreter
and in all JITs, but they can be optimized later if necessary.
Other array-like maps (cpumap, devmap, sockmap, perf_event_array, cgroup_array)
cannot be used by unpriv, so no changes there.
That fixes bpf side of "Variant 1: bounds check bypass (CVE-2017-5753)" on
all architectures with and without JIT.
v2->v3:
Daniel noticed that attack potentially can be crafted via syscall commands
without loading the program, so add masking to those paths as well.

be embedded in another structure and thus container_of can be used. In
this way application specific members can be stored in a containing
struct.
This will be used by the P2P infrastructure and HMM could probably

user space wants to enumerate all stacktrace map entries where
BPF_MAP_GET_NEXT_KEY command will be really helpful.
In addition, if user space wants to delete all map entries
in order to save memory and does not want to close the
map file descriptor, BPF_MAP_GET_NEXT_KEY may help improve
performance if map entries are sparsely populated.
The implementation has similar behavior for
BPF_MAP_GET_NEXT_KEY implementation in hashtab. If user provides

Otherwise, the first valid key after the input parameter "key"

a second s2disk immediately after that and it succeeds. And user
wonders why.
The problem is caused by minimum_image_size() in snapshot.c. The
value it returns is roughly 100% too high because NR_FILE_MAPPED is
subtracted in its calculation. Eventually the number of preallocated
image pages is falsely too low.
This doesn't matter as long as NR_FILE_MAPPED-values are in a normal
range or in 32bit-environments as the code allows for allocation of
additional pages from highmem.
But with the high values generated by VirtualBox-VMs (a 2-GB-VM causes
NR_FILE_MAPPED go up by 2 GB) it may lead to failure in 64bit-systems.
Not subtracting NR_FILE_MAPPED in minimum_image_size() solves the
problem.
I've done at least hundreds of successful s2both/s2disk now on an
x86_64 system (with and without VirtualBox) which gives me some
confidence that this is right. It has turned s2disk/s2both from
unusable into 100% reliable.

As Tsukada explains, the time_is_before_jiffies(acct->needcheck) check
is very wrong, we need time_is_after_jiffies() to make sys_acct() work.
Ignoring the overflows, the code should "goto out" if needcheck >
jiffies, while currently it checks "needcheck < jiffies" and thus in the
likely case check_free_space() does nothing until jiffies overflow.
In particular this means that sys_acct() is simply broken, acct_on()
sets acct->needcheck = jiffies and expects that check_free_space()
should set acct->active = 1 after the free-space check, but this won't
happen if jiffies increments in between.
This was broken by commit 32dc730860 ("get rid of timer in
kern/acct.c") in 2011, then another (correct) commit 795a2f22a8
("acct() should honour the limits from the very beginning") made the
problem more visible.

The sockmap infrastructure is only aware of TCP sockets at the
moment. In the future we plan to add UDP. In both cases CONFIG_NET
should be built-in.
So lets only build sockmap if CONFIG_INET is enabled.

This was added for some work that was eventually factored out but the
helper call was missed. Remove it now and add it back later if needed.

0day and kernelCI automatically parse kernel log - basically some sort
of grepping using the pre-defined text patterns - in order to detect
and report regressions/errors. There are several sources they get the
kernel logs from:
a) dmesg or /proc/ksmg
This is the preferred way. Because `dmesg --raw' (see later Note)
and /proc/kmsg output contains facility and log level, which greatly
simplifies grepping for EMERG/ALERT/CRIT/ERR messages.
b) serial consoles
This option is harder to maintain, because serial console messages
don't contain facility and log level.
This patch introduces a `console_msg_format=' command line option,
to switch between different message formatting on serial consoles.
For the time being we have just two options - default and syslog.
The "default" option just keeps the existing format. While the
"syslog" option makes serial console messages to appear in syslog
format [syslog() syscall], matching the `dmesg -S --raw' and
`cat /proc/kmsg' output formats:
- facility and log level
- time stamp (depends on printk_time/PRINTK_TIME)
- message
<%u>[time stamp] text\n
NOTE: while Kevin and Fengguang talk about "dmesg --raw", it's actually
"dmesg -S --raw" that always prints messages in syslog format [per
Petr Mladek]. Running "dmesg --raw" may produce output in non-syslog
format sometimes. console_msg_format=syslog enables syslog format,
thus in documentation we mention "dmesg -S --raw", not "dmesg --raw".
Per Kevin Hilman:
: Right now we can get this info from a "dmesg --raw" after bootup,
: but it would be really nice in certain automation frameworks to
: have a kernel command-line option to enable printing of loglevels
: in default boot log.
:
: This is especially useful when ingesting kernel logs into advanced
: search/analytics frameworks (I'm playing with and ELK stack: Elastic
: Search, Logstash, Kibana).
:
: The other important reason for having this on the command line is that
: for testing linux-next (and other bleeding edge developer branches),
: it's common that we never make it to userspace, so can't even run
: "dmesg --raw" (or equivalent.) So we really want this on the primary
: boot (serial) console.
Per Fengguang Wu, 0day scripts should quickly benefit from that
feature, because they will be able to switch to a more reliable
parsing, based on messages' facility and log levels [1]:
`#{grep} -a -E -e '^<[0123]>' -e '^kern :(err |crit |alert |emerg )'
instead of doing text pattern matching
`#{grep} -a -F -f /lkp/printk-error-messages #{kmsg_file} |
grep -a -v -E -f #{LKP_SRC}/etc/oops-pattern |
grep -a -v -F -f #{LKP_SRC}/etc/kmsg-blacklist`

- Rename from kdb_send_sig_info to kdb_send_sig
As there is no meaningful siginfo sent
- Use SEND_SIG_PRIV instead of generating a siginfo for a kdb
signal. The generated siginfo had a bogus rationale and was
not correct in the face of pid namespaces. SEND_SIG_PRIV
is simpler and actually correct.
- As the code grabs siglock just send the signal with siglock
held instead of dropping siglock and attempting to grab it again.
- Move the sig_valid test into kdb_kill where it can generate
a good error message.
