b39898cd40 genirq: Prevent spurious detection for unconditionally polled interrupts
On a 68k platform a couple of interrupts are demultiplexed and
"polled" from a top level interrupt. Unfortunately there is no way to
determine which of the sub interrupts raised the top level interrupt,
so all of the demultiplexed interrupt handlers need to be
invoked. Given a high enough frequency this can trigger the spurious
interrupt detection mechanism, if one of the demultiplex interrupts
returns IRQ_NONE continuously. But this is a false positive as the
polling causes this behaviour and not buggy hardware/software.

Introduce IRQ_POLLED which can be set at interrupt chip setup time via
irq_set_status_flags(). The flag excludes the interrupt from the
spurious detector and from all core polling activities.

Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "As a first remark I'd like to note that the way to build perf tooling
  has been simplified and sped up, in the future it should be enough for
  you to build perf via:

        cd tools/perf/
        make install

  (ie without the -j option.) The build system will figure out the
  number of CPUs and will do a parallel build+install.

  The various build system inefficiencies and breakages Linus reported
  against the v3.12 pull request should now be resolved - please
  (re-)report any remaining annoyances or bugs.

        From Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.

      . Show VFS path associated with fd in live sessions, using a
        'vfs_getname' 'perf probe' created dynamic tracepoint or by
        looking at /proc/pid/fd, from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.

      . Add 'trace' beautifiers for lots of syscall arguments, from

        Ramachandra.

      . 'perf trace' now emits hints as to why tracing is not possible,
        helping the user to setup the system to allow tracing in the
        desired permission granularity, telling if the problem is due to
        debugfs not being mounted or with not enough permission for
        !root, /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoit value, etc.  From
        Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.

        point to be collected when it hits, from Masami Hiramatsu.

   * 'perf sched' enhancements:

      . Address the root cause of that 'perf sched' stack initialization
        build slowdown, by programmatically setting a big array after
        moving the global variable back to the stack.  Fix from Adrian

7053ea1a34 stop_machine: Fix race between stop_two_cpus() and stop_cpus()
There is a race between stop_two_cpus, and the global stop_cpus.

It is possible for two CPUs to get their stopper functions queued
"backwards" from one another, resulting in the stopper threads
getting stuck, and the system hanging. This can happen because
queuing up stoppers is not synchronized.

This patch adds synchronization between stop_cpus (a rare operation),
and stop_two_cpus.

2ded0980a6 uprobes: Fix the memory out of bound overwrite in copy_insn()
1. copy_insn() doesn't look very nice, all calculations are
   confusing and it is not immediately clear why do we read
   the 2nd page first.

2. The usage of inode->i_size is wrong on 32-bit machines.

3. "Instruction at end of binary" logic is simply wrong, it
   doesn't handle the case when uprobe->offset > inode->i_size.

   In this case "bytes" overflows, and __copy_insn() writes to
   the memory outside of uprobe->arch.insn.

   Yes, uprobe_register() checks i_size_read(), but this file
   can be truncated after that. All i_size checks are racy, we
   do this only to catch the obvious mistakes.

Change copy_insn() to call __copy_insn() in a loop, simplify
and fix the bytes/nbytes calculations.

Note: we do not care if we read extra bytes after inode->i_size
if we got the valid page. This is fine because the task gets the
same page after page-fault, and arch_uprobe_analyze_insn() can't
know how many bytes were actually read anyway.

Commit aa59c53fd4 "uprobes: Change uprobe_copy_process() to dup

Even with this bug dup_xol_work() works "in practice", but only
because get_unmapped_area(NULL, TASK_SIZE - PAGE_SIZE) likely
returns the same address every time.

6c86ae2928 Dave Jones's trinity program was able to enable the function tracer
from a normal user account via the perf syscall "perf_event_open()".
 When I was able to reproduce it with trinity, I was able to track down
 exactly how it happened.
 
 I discovered that the check for whether the function tracepoint should
 be activated or not was using the "perf_paranoid_kernel()" check which
 by default, lets the user continue. The user should not by default be
 able to enable function tracing. The fix is to use
 "perf_paranoid_tracepoint_raw()" which will not let the user enable
 function tracing.
 
 This is a security fix as normal users should never be allowed to
 enable the function tracer.

12ae030d54 perf/ftrace: Fix paranoid level for enabling function tracer
The current default perf paranoid level is "1" which has
"perf_paranoid_kernel()" return false, and giving any operations that
use it, access to normal users. Unfortunately, this includes function
tracing and normal users should not be allowed to enable function
tracing by default.

The proper level is defined at "-1" (full perf access), which
"perf_paranoid_tracepoint_raw()" will only give access to. Use that
check instead for enabling function tracing.

8a8de66c4f uprobes: Introduce arch_uprobe->ixol
Currently xol_get_insn_slot() assumes that we should simply copy
arch_uprobe->insn[] which is (ignoring arch_uprobe_analyze_insn)
just the copy of the original insn.

This is not true for arm which needs to create another insn to
execute it out-of-line.

So this patch simply adds the new member, ->ixol into the union.
This doesn't make any difference for x86 and powerpc, but arm
can divorce insn/ixol and initialize the correct xol insn in
arch_uprobe_analyze_insn().

37dc6b50ce sched: Remove unnecessary iteration over sched domains to update nr_busy_cpus
nr_busy_cpus parameter is used by nohz_kick_needed() to find out the
number of busy cpus in a sched domain which has SD_SHARE_PKG_RESOURCES
flag set.  Therefore instead of updating nr_busy_cpus at every level
of sched domain, since it is irrelevant, we can update this parameter
only at the parent domain of the sd which has this flag set. Introduce
a per-cpu parameter sd_busy which represents this parent domain.

In nohz_kick_needed() we directly query the nr_busy_cpus parameter
associated with the groups of sd_busy.

By associating sd_busy with the highest domain which has
SD_SHARE_PKG_RESOURCES flag set, we cover all lower level domains
which could have this flag set and trigger nohz_idle_balancing if any
of the levels have more than one busy cpu.

sd_busy is irrelevant for asymmetric load balancing. However sd_asym
has been introduced to represent the highest sched domain which has
SD_ASYM_PACKING flag set so that it can be queried directly when
required.

While we are at it, we might as well change the nohz_idle parameter to
be updated at the sd_busy domain level alone and not the base domain
level of a CPU.  This will unify the concept of busy cpus at just one
level of sched domain where it is currently used.

2042abe797 sched: Fix asymmetric scheduling for POWER7
Asymmetric scheduling within a core is a scheduler loadbalancing
feature that is triggered when SD_ASYM_PACKING flag is set.  The goal
for the load balancer is to move tasks to lower order idle SMT threads
within a core on a POWER7 system.

In nohz_kick_needed(), we intend to check if our sched domain (core)
is completely busy or we have idle cpu.

The following check for SD_ASYM_PACKING:

    (cpumask_first_and(nohz.idle_cpus_mask, sched_domain_span(sd)) < cpu)

already covers the case of checking if the domain has an idle cpu,
because cpumask_first_and() will not yield any set bits if this domain
has no idle cpu.

Hence, nr_busy check against group weight can be removed.

The arch_perf_output_copy_user() default of
__copy_from_user_inatomic() returns bytes not copied, while all other

Since copy_from_user_nmi() is the odd duck out by returning bytes
copied where all other *copy_{to,from}* functions return bytes not
copied, change it over and ammend DEFINE_OUTPUT_COPY() to expect bytes
not copied.

Oddly enough DEFINE_OUTPUT_COPY() already returned bytes not copied

Add unlikely() annotations to 'slow' paths:

When having a sampling event but no output buffer; you have bigger

When having a sampling event but a control page only buffer, you have
bigger issues -- again the bail is still faster than actually doing
work.

Optimize for the case where you're not loosing events -- again, not
doing the work is still faster but make sure that when you have to
actually do work its as fast as possible.

The typical watermark is 1/2 the buffer size, so most events will not
take this path.

3ab6796617 uprobes: Teach uprobe_copy_process() to handle CLONE_VFORK
uprobe_copy_process() does nothing if the child shares ->mm with
the forking process, but there is a special case: CLONE_VFORK.
In this case it would be more correct to do dup_utask() but avoid
dup_xol(). This is not that important, the child should not unwind
its stack too much, this can corrupt the parent's stack, but at
least we need this to allow to ret-probe __vfork() itself.

Note: in theory, it would be better to check task_pt_regs(p)->sp
instead of CLONE_VFORK, we need to dup_utask() if and only if the
child can return from the function called by the parent. But this
needs the arch-dependant helper, and I think that nobody actually
does clone(same_stack, CLONE_VM).

aa59c53fd4 uprobes: Change uprobe_copy_process() to dup xol_area
This finally fixes the serious bug in uretprobes: a forked child
crashes if the parent called fork() with the pending ret probe.

Trivial test-case:

	# perf probe -x /lib/libc.so.6 __fork%return
	# perf record -e probe_libc:__fork perl -le 'fork || print "OK"'

(the child doesn't print "OK", it is killed by SIGSEGV)

If the child returns from the probed function it actually returns
to trampoline_vaddr, because it got the copy of parent's stack
mangled by prepare_uretprobe() when the parent entered this func.

It crashes because a) this address is not mapped and b) until the
previous change it doesn't have the proper->return_instances info.

This means that uprobe_copy_process() has to create xol_area which
has the trampoline slot, and its vaddr should be equal to parent's
xol_area->vaddr.

Unfortunately, uprobe_copy_process() can not simply do
__create_xol_area(child, xol_area->vaddr). This could actually work
but perf_event_mmap() doesn't expect the usage of foreign ->mm. So
we offload this to task_work_run(), and pass the argument via not
yet used utask->vaddr.

We know that this vaddr is fine for install_special_mapping(), the
necessary hole was recently "created" by dup_mmap() which skips the
parent's VM_DONTCOPY area, and nobody else could use the new mm.

Unfortunately, this also means that we can not handle the errors
properly, we obviously can not abort the already completed fork().
So we simply print the warning if GFP_KERNEL allocation (the only
possible reason) fails.

248d3a7b2f uprobes: Change uprobe_copy_process() to dup return_instances
uprobe_copy_process() assumes that the new child doesn't need
->utask, it should be allocated by demand.

But this is not true if the forking task has the pending ret-
probes, the child should report them as well and thus it needs
the copy of parent's ->return_instances chain. Otherwise the
child crashes when it returns from the probed function.

Alternatively we could cleanup the child's stack, but this needs
per-arch changes and this is not what we want. At least systemtap
expects a .return in the child too.

Note: this change alone doesn't fix the problem, see the next
change.

af0d95af79 uprobes: Teach __create_xol_area() to accept the predefined vaddr
Currently xol_add_vma() uses get_unmapped_area() for area->vaddr,
but the next patches need to use the fixed address. So this patch
adds the new "vaddr" argument to __create_xol_area() which should
be used as area->vaddr if it is nonzero.

xol_add_vma() doesn't bother to verify that the predefined addr is
not used, insert_vm_struct() should fail if find_vma_links() detects
the overlap with the existing vma.

Also, __create_xol_area() doesn't need __GFP_ZERO to allocate area.

b68e074910 uprobes: Change the callsite of uprobe_copy_process()
Preparation for the next patches.

Move the callsite of uprobe_copy_process() in copy_process() down
to the succesfull return. We do not care if copy_process() fails,
uprobe_free_utask() won't be called in this case so the wrong
->utask != NULL doesn't matter.

OTOH, with this change we know that copy_process() can't fail when
uprobe_copy_process() is called, the new task should either return
to user-mode or call do_exit(). This way uprobe_copy_process() can:

	1. setup p->utask != NULL if necessary

	2. setup uprobes_state.xol_area

	3. use task_work_add(p)

Also, move the definition of uprobe_copy_process() down so that it
can see get_utask().

perf_event_mmap_event() does kzalloc(PATH_MAX + sizeof(u64)) to
ensure we can align the size later. However this means that we

f9f9ffc237 sched: Avoid throttle_cfs_rq() racing with period_timer stopping
throttle_cfs_rq() doesn't check to make sure that period_timer is running,
and while update_curr/assign_cfs_runtime does, a concurrently running
period_timer on another cpu could cancel itself between this cpu's
update_curr and throttle_cfs_rq(). If there are no other cfs_rqs running
in the tg to restart the timer, this causes the cfs_rq to be stranded
forever.

Fix this by calling __start_cfs_bandwidth() in throttle if the timer is
inactive.

(Also add some sched_debug lines for cfs_bandwidth.)

Tested: make a run/sleep task in a cgroup, loop switching the cgroup
between 1ms/100ms quota and unlimited, checking for timer_active=0 and
throttled=1 as a failure. With the throttle_cfs_rq() change commented out
this fails, with the full patch it passes.

0ac9b1c218 sched: Guarantee new group-entities always have weight
Currently, group entity load-weights are initialized to zero. This
admits some races with respect to the first time they are re-weighted in
earlty use. ( Let g[x] denote the se for "g" on cpu "x". )

Suppose that we have root->a and that a enters a throttled state,
immediately followed by a[0]->t1 (the only task running on cpu[0])
blocking:

  put_prev_task(group_cfs_rq(a[0]), t1)
  put_prev_entity(..., t1)
  check_cfs_rq_runtime(group_cfs_rq(a[0]))
  throttle_cfs_rq(group_cfs_rq(a[0]))

Then, before unthrottling occurs, let a[0]->b[0]->t2 wake for the first
time:

  enqueue_task_fair(rq[0], t2)
  enqueue_entity(group_cfs_rq(b[0]), t2)
  enqueue_entity_load_avg(group_cfs_rq(b[0]), t2)
  account_entity_enqueue(group_cfs_ra(b[0]), t2)
  update_cfs_shares(group_cfs_rq(b[0]))
  < skipped because b is part of a throttled hierarchy >
  enqueue_entity(group_cfs_rq(a[0]), b[0])
  ...

We now have b[0] enqueued, yet group_cfs_rq(a[0])->load.weight == 0
which violates invariants in several code-paths. Eliminate the
possibility of this by initializing group entity weight.

927b54fccb sched: Fix hrtimer_cancel()/rq->lock deadlock
__start_cfs_bandwidth calls hrtimer_cancel while holding rq->lock,
waiting for the hrtimer to finish. However, if sched_cfs_period_timer
runs for another loop iteration, the hrtimer can attempt to take
rq->lock, resulting in deadlock.

Fix this by ensuring that cfs_b->timer_active is cleared only if the
_latest_ call to do_sched_cfs_period_timer is returning as idle. Then
__start_cfs_bandwidth can just call hrtimer_try_to_cancel and wait for
that to succeed or timer_active == 1.
